Speaker 1: stories to get this week started, and I think we
Speaker 1: need a little bit of fun in our lives. But
Speaker 1: we got serious news today as well. This whole battle
Speaker 1: never seems to stop, which is of course, the battle
Speaker 1: over whether or not we're going to protect our country.
Speaker 1: I cannot believe we're still having this debate, and it
Speaker 1: just gets more and more incendiary and insane by the minute,
Speaker 1: by the day, and the level of ignorance out there
Speaker 1: is spectacular, especially among the media elites, the arrogant, pompous
Speaker 1: jackasses in the media and their cohorts. Uh. And funny
Speaker 1: side note on all of this. Uh, there was a
Speaker 1: report out today Is this true? This might be a
Speaker 1: come on, this has to be made up? That did
Speaker 1: CNN really get kicked out of Venezuela after the country's
Speaker 1: president accused the network of spreading fig news that I
Speaker 1: can't I've read it and I just died laughing. It
Speaker 1: was on zero Hedge dot com. And anyway, it goes
Speaker 1: on to say, well, tensions between Trump and CNE that
Speaker 1: are dying down, which is not true. A new scandal
Speaker 1: has erupted, uh in the cable news network after venezuel As.
Speaker 1: President Maduro said on Sunday, you wanted CNN out of
Speaker 1: the country, accusing them of spreading fake news. I'm like, wow,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe the dictators are beginning to get what I've
Speaker 1: known for a long time too. And uh, there wasn't
Speaker 1: even another story. Poor Bernie Sanders was on CNN. I
Speaker 1: don't know what they did to him, but apparently he
Speaker 1: claimed that there was fake news as well. There's a
Speaker 1: whole story about this that they pulled the plug. Do
Speaker 1: you have that tape? No, okay, it is a funny
Speaker 1: story that anyway. Bernie Sanders was a guest on CNN
Speaker 1: to talk about Trump's refusable comment on the report about
Speaker 1: Mike Flynn, which I'll get to him a minute, and
Speaker 1: his contacts with the Russian ambassador before he was inaugurated.
Speaker 1: And the interviewer is Aaron burnettos I don't actually one
Speaker 1: of the few people that seems normal over there, and
Speaker 1: it's interesting to know without Sanders talking now, she both
Speaker 1: asked her question and then kind of sock pucketed puppeted
Speaker 1: the the answer, and it sounds like, you know, it's
Speaker 1: pretty funny. So they anyway, I don't know if you've heard.
Speaker 1: Here's what he said when I asked about the report
Speaker 1: on Flynn on his flight tomorrow lago today and his
Speaker 1: flight landed about an hour ago. This was on Friday,
Speaker 1: and he said, I don't know. I haven't seen it.
Speaker 1: Trump said, and he said the report that he talked
Speaker 1: to the ambassador from Russia before he was inaugurated about sanctions.
Speaker 1: He said, I haven't seen that. Burnett says, he says
Speaker 1: he knows nothing about it. He hasn't seen any of
Speaker 1: the reports. Is that a problem? Sanders writes, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe he was watching CNN fake news. What do you think.
Speaker 1: She goes, I don't buy it. It was a joke.
Speaker 1: He said. I know, it's a joke. I'm saying, you know,
Speaker 1: you don't buy what he says, and then Sanders says Aaron,
Speaker 1: and she goes, yes, says I'm sorry, senator, you obviously
Speaker 1: don't buy what he said. You believe he has seen
Speaker 1: these reports? So pause, and then Sanders says, I'm not
Speaker 1: are we on? It's so funny, and then it looks
Speaker 1: it looks like they lose the connection with Senator Sanders.
Speaker 1: Burnett goes just as soon as he's calling, and then
Speaker 1: fake news. I assume it was an accident. I mean,
Speaker 1: but the timing couldn't be any better. You don't think
Speaker 1: it was an accident, Well you can say it. I
Speaker 1: I don't have any evidence, so I mean, they're they're
Speaker 1: really getting in trouble. Chris Cuomo stepped all over it
Speaker 1: the other day on his program when he made a
Speaker 1: comparison that the worst thing you can say about a journalist,
Speaker 1: and then backtrack later, by the way, welcome to my world.
Speaker 1: This has been the world I have lived and worked
Speaker 1: in my entire career, and there's if they weren't so
Speaker 1: abusively biased, it wouldn't be that big a deal. I
Speaker 1: turned on, literally it turned on over the weekend, seeing
Speaker 1: him for like five seconds by acts at it. It It
Speaker 1: was not on purpose, And you know, it was around
Speaker 1: the Fox News channel and I have Dish TV and
Speaker 1: a turnaround, and I just watched a little bit Andrew
Speaker 1: Sullivan and like somebody else, they're all saying that Trump's
Speaker 1: mentally ill. That's like the new thing that they're trying
Speaker 1: to push. You know, the media is devotion, you know
Speaker 1: what it's it's their lazy the double standard for America.
Speaker 1: They now see through this so crystal clear. They spotted
Speaker 1: like I have spotted it for decades, and Americans can
Speaker 1: now see, Okay, that's your bias point of view. This
Speaker 1: isn't news. We don't buy your crap anymore. And they're
Speaker 1: you know, more and more, these networks do not compete
Speaker 1: with the Fox News Channel. They do not even get
Speaker 1: into the same arena. It's like we're up here and
Speaker 1: you know, they're like, we're one there, forty. This is
Speaker 1: no comparison, all right, maybe they're twenty five. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't really pay that much at time. And I
Speaker 1: know people don't believe when I say that, but I
Speaker 1: don't pay that much attention to it. Um eight nine
Speaker 1: four one Shawn is a toll free telephone or you
Speaker 1: know what else? Was a cool story. So I didn't
Speaker 1: watch the Grammy Awards. Do you watch the Grammy Awards?
Speaker 1: All right? So there's this singer who shows up in
Speaker 1: a make America Great Again dress, Linda pointed out, because
Speaker 1: I don't spend in spite of my Twitter wars. I
Speaker 1: don't spend a lot of time on Twitter. I don't
Speaker 1: read a lot of Twitter. I just like to tweet.
Speaker 1: And you know, that's where I get my my fighting
Speaker 1: in rather than wasting precious airtime. And I got an
Speaker 1: hour ride to and from work every day and a
Speaker 1: board stiff. No, I don't tweet while I'm driving. I
Speaker 1: wait at a stop light and then I'll throw out
Speaker 1: a tweet. And uh. Anyway, So this woman and I've
Speaker 1: never heard of her before, and I'm thinking, wow, that's
Speaker 1: pretty cool. And I saw it, and you said that
Speaker 1: she got eviscerated on social media, like beating up really bad,
Speaker 1: which is too bad. But in the middle of all
Speaker 1: of this, the left wing performers that were there, she
Speaker 1: comes up with the make America Great Again. Dress. She looks,
Speaker 1: by the way, a whole lot better than Madonna or
Speaker 1: Ashley Judd, even Madonna in our prime. But anyway, the
Speaker 1: singer songwriter, his name is Joy Villa, and she made
Speaker 1: a political statement by wearing the dress on the red carpets.
Speaker 1: Was I think, in that environment was an incredibly courageous
Speaker 1: thing to do, knowing how off the rails the left
Speaker 1: is in the country today. So she wore a bright
Speaker 1: blue dress, really very pretty, really nice, says make America
Speaker 1: Great again across the front of her gown, going upper gown,
Speaker 1: and I thought it was really cool, Trump on the
Speaker 1: back and then on the red carpet. She initially wore
Speaker 1: a white cover up of the of the gown, removing
Speaker 1: it to reveal this thing, which is so cool because
Speaker 1: the you know, whenever a singer or somebody in in
Speaker 1: Hollywood wants to get famous, they usually show up in
Speaker 1: like what I call the j Low dress. Because you
Speaker 1: want to get noticed, you show up in the j
Speaker 1: Low kind of dress, or you show up with major
Speaker 1: cleavage hanging out, and that then becomes the talked about
Speaker 1: item at whatever the awards ceremony let's pat ourselves on
Speaker 1: the back ceremony that they always have at these things. Anyway,
Speaker 1: So she wore this thing, and guess what happened. Oh,
Speaker 1: I have some news to make. CBS News reports that
Speaker 1: sales of Joy Villa's music has quote their words CBS
Speaker 1: all left radical media, not me skyrocketed after she wore
Speaker 1: the pro Trump dressed to the Grammys with the words
Speaker 1: make America great and Trump on him anyway. She's also
Speaker 1: climbing the charts on iTunes. She tweeted out her reaction
Speaker 1: to this newfound fame. She said, quote, I'm speechless. You,
Speaker 1: my amazing fans and supporters have put me to number
Speaker 1: sixteen on iTunes top a right, do me a favor.
Speaker 1: Download some of her songs for me, because you know
Speaker 1: I'm stupid and night I write you over the weekend.
Speaker 1: How many times that I write you about technical phone questions?
Speaker 1: This week? I just go to you because you always
Speaker 1: have the answer, friend of mine to trying to figure
Speaker 1: some ountain and then you just helped me, like immediately.
Speaker 1: On Instagram, she explained the controversial look. She said, go
Speaker 1: big or go home. Stand for what you believe or
Speaker 1: fall for what you don't. Above all, make a choice
Speaker 1: for tolerance and love, agree to disagree. That's like the
Speaker 1: smartest thing that's ever come out of any actress, actor
Speaker 1: or singer in the history of the country. Good for her.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm now gonna listen to her music. If
Speaker 1: you listen to it, you like it. People can't see you.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Yes, I I actually I had
Speaker 1: never heard of her either, and I just went and
Speaker 1: looked at her and she's got some some very She's good.
Speaker 1: I mean, she's better than j Lo, who said during
Speaker 1: her speech last night that it's time to get to
Speaker 1: work against the president. And she was showing all of
Speaker 1: her assets and made plenty of news with them as usual,
Speaker 1: but made sure to bash the president while she did it.
Speaker 1: But Joy Villa did it. I'm so glad. I'm so
Speaker 1: glad I didn't watch it. I literally I went to
Speaker 1: Michael W. Smith's concert Carnegie Hall. They were I never
Speaker 1: saw there was two hundred and seventy people on that stage.
Speaker 1: I tweeted out a picture of it. If you want
Speaker 1: to go to my Twitter account at Shawn Hannah. I
Speaker 1: saw that picture of the choir and the orchestra was beautiful.
Speaker 1: It was beautiful, and it was he did you wear
Speaker 1: a tuxin? No, get out of here. You think I'm
Speaker 1: wearing a tuxed. I did wear a shirt and a
Speaker 1: jacket and jeans, but I didn't wear a tie. I
Speaker 1: can't stand. A guy gave me a bow tie and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I've never worn a bow tie in my life.
Speaker 1: It was a nice kid. I'm like, a nice kid
Speaker 1: comes up to me, he goes, I make ties and
Speaker 1: he gives me one. He gives me a bow time, like,
Speaker 1: give me a normal tie, and I don't wear bow ties.
Speaker 1: It was nice of him, though, I appreciated it. So
Speaker 1: let me tell you what's going on. And this is
Speaker 1: one of our top stories. Of course, the vetting issue
Speaker 1: is another top story today. But we've got a lot
Speaker 1: of things that are happening at once. You've got everything
Speaker 1: and everyone around the president now is going to be vilified.
Speaker 1: You've got to understand this is not a game anymore.
Speaker 1: It started with the vicious and vile and cruel attacks
Speaker 1: against Donald Trump's ten year old son, Baron. Now, I
Speaker 1: think I'm that probably one of maybe the only people
Speaker 1: in media that has actually met Barron. And I can
Speaker 1: tell you that this is a great kid. He literally
Speaker 1: Milani introduced him to me. This is Mr Hannity's works
Speaker 1: at the Fox News Channel. And he goes, hi, Mr Hannity,
Speaker 1: it's an honor to meet you, shakes my hand the
Speaker 1: way you'd want any ten year old kid to do it,
Speaker 1: look me in the eye. Great kid. And I've seen
Speaker 1: him a couple of other times, and what they did
Speaker 1: to him was beyond cruel and it was widespread, and
Speaker 1: if it ever happened with Malia or Sasha, I would
Speaker 1: have been just as angry. Leave children the hell alone,
Speaker 1: of politicians and public figures. It's none of your business,
Speaker 1: none whatsoever. And the fact that a kid at four
Speaker 1: in the morning or three in the morning is tired,
Speaker 1: that's called being normal. That's I fidget and I'm fifty five.
Speaker 1: And the things they said about this kid, we're just cruel,
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you from experience, not true. The kids brilliant, really,
Speaker 1: really cool, nice, normal, great kid. All right, that's one.
Speaker 1: Then Avonka really Oh she wore her own piece of
Speaker 1: jewelry on sixty minutes and one of her assistants, as
Speaker 1: per usual practice if she's in the public, they tweeted
Speaker 1: out something that said, oh, you can see her particular
Speaker 1: line of jewelry. The media made a huge deal about that.
Speaker 1: All right. Avanca is a big girl, she can handle it.
Speaker 1: She's in the political arena. You really want to go
Speaker 1: after Avanka? You really want to beat up on a woman? Huh?
Speaker 1: Because of a conservative? Did it? That would that would
Speaker 1: be how it's described. Then Eric Trump, well, I've known
Speaker 1: a long time. He's so in he's so motivated, motivated
Speaker 1: by his philanthropy. I think it's Saint Jude's. My mind
Speaker 1: is going blank here, But he raised tens of millions
Speaker 1: of dollars over the years, and his father, being a
Speaker 1: nice guy, would say, go use my ability here or
Speaker 1: my facility here, And that was his father's donation to
Speaker 1: help his son. Who cares about other people in the
Speaker 1: case of St. Jude's children. So now the latest victim
Speaker 1: in this is Donald Trump Jr. By the way, Donald
Speaker 1: and Eric and Ivanka, they're adults. They can handle themselves. Guys,
Speaker 1: you really want to pick on a girl really anyway,
Speaker 1: So he sends his son to a school, and these
Speaker 1: people are writing blogs about, Oh, I don't know if
Speaker 1: I want to send my kid to the school, don't
Speaker 1: go there, don't go there. It's unbelievable. Now we're attacking
Speaker 1: ten year old kids, women, and we're attacking the grandchildren
Speaker 1: of the president, Which is how pathetic this has gotten.
Speaker 1: Now when we come back, I'm gonna explain how it
Speaker 1: goes even deeper. Every single person around the president is
Speaker 1: also being isolated Lynsky one on one and demonized. Kelly
Speaker 1: Ann's gone through it, Bannon's gone through it. Stephen Miller
Speaker 1: is going through it, and and General Flynn now going
Speaker 1: through it, and the level of pettiness is just off
Speaker 1: the charts. We'll get to that next. Stay up to
Speaker 1: date with the latest news and expert opinions as Donald
Speaker 1: Trump takes office. Stick right here with the Sea Show.
Speaker 1: All right, hang on. Whatever Jamie dupri said something, I
Speaker 1: gotta pay attention to it. Um, you know, a lot
Speaker 1: of you ask about Jamie all the time, and Jamie
Speaker 1: has had voice issues for what about a year now
Speaker 1: right about that. Jamie still works on the show. He's
Speaker 1: still in Washington. He's told doing a phenomenal job. We
Speaker 1: love him dearly. It was my frust ration in life
Speaker 1: that I could never get an opinion out of the guy.
Speaker 1: And I tried so hard, and uh, but he's he's
Speaker 1: actually on the mend and we uh, we have really
Speaker 1: high hopes that hopefully we'll be back on the air
Speaker 1: pretty shortly. But um, you know, it's it's difficult. I
Speaker 1: knew a guy in hunts All, Alabama. His vocal courts froze.
Speaker 1: I mean I I I early in my career. I
Speaker 1: got a contract and I got insurance from Lloyd's of
Speaker 1: London because I'd have to give money back and it
Speaker 1: was a fortune. Don't ever go there. Lloyd's of London
Speaker 1: and they're so expensive. Oh my gosh, it's ridiculous. But anyway,
Speaker 1: I thoughts of prayers are with him. Good thing is
Speaker 1: he's in great spirits. He's working hard. It's just that
Speaker 1: his his voice has had some difficulty. And by the way,
Speaker 1: we don't care if it doesn't have to be perfect.
Speaker 1: When he comes back, we all know that. You know,
Speaker 1: when he's ready, we'll put him back on. He says,
Speaker 1: no appeal to the Supreme Court at this time, which
Speaker 1: we knew. Uh. New papers just filed with the District
Speaker 1: Judge in Washington asked for asking for a delay in
Speaker 1: any proceedings. The d o J wants to wait and
Speaker 1: see if the full Ninth Circuit will hear the case.
Speaker 1: No word on any revised order or new executive order
Speaker 1: being issued this week, which kind of dovetails into what
Speaker 1: I have been saying is you've got this whole. You
Speaker 1: now have an infrastructure where the radical alt left is
Speaker 1: moving into any town hall that any congressman or woman
Speaker 1: is having, that they are going to try and tie
Speaker 1: Donald Trump up in knots and in the courts, and
Speaker 1: they're hoping that the judicial activists like Obama's picks will
Speaker 1: help them advance and agenda. They can never get done
Speaker 1: at the ballot box or persuade the American people to
Speaker 1: go along with legislatively, So that's why they like to
Speaker 1: legislate from the bench, as we say. And the other
Speaker 1: thing that's happening, and I'll get into more details after
Speaker 1: the bottom of the hour news, But the other thing
Speaker 1: that's happening is anybody that surrounds the president. I mentioned
Speaker 1: all of his children. Now they're attacking this man's grandchildren.
Speaker 1: And it also look what they did to Kelly and
Speaker 1: Kelly and said, um a commercial freak by of Anka's
Speaker 1: stuff because they were they were brutalizing or and politicized
Speaker 1: that at Nordstrom, which I confirmed from a great norths
Speaker 1: from connection. Now they're gone after Steve Bannon, they're hitting
Speaker 1: Steve Miller is a really smart young man, and then
Speaker 1: they're gonna go after Mike Flynn and they're gonna try
Speaker 1: and pick them off one at a time. You know why,
Speaker 1: because the media is lazy and the media has a
Speaker 1: radical all left agenda. And I'll remind them journalism is dead.
Speaker 1: You guys killed it. I just got more data. And
Speaker 1: by the way, this is the young girl Joey Villa
Speaker 1: is her name, who went to the Grammys with the
Speaker 1: make America Great on the front of her side of
Speaker 1: her dress, I guess, and then Trump on the back
Speaker 1: of her dress. It turns out that her her c D.
Speaker 1: I guess, I make the static and you heard some
Speaker 1: of it there. That was what the song vagabonds? What
Speaker 1: was the other song that we played. I've never heard
Speaker 1: her before. I like it might be a slightly overproduced,
Speaker 1: but she has a beautiful voice. No, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think the production value could be just a hair better.
Speaker 1: Is too much? It is too tinny a little bit.
Speaker 1: I'm just being I'm giving honest critics. Do I ever
Speaker 1: not be honest? Seriously? But I liked it. I liked
Speaker 1: it a lot. I think it was really well done.
Speaker 1: And I didn't know this, but it jumped to number
Speaker 1: one on Amazon's Top Digital albums and still number one today.
Speaker 1: There's a message for you, Hollywood and and new musical
Speaker 1: nit wits out there that know nothing about politics. Good
Speaker 1: for her, can you? I'll tell you what else put
Speaker 1: a link on our website for her. Put it up there.
Speaker 1: You know, people want to get it, they may not
Speaker 1: know how, they may be dumb like me electronically, and
Speaker 1: you know you're not exactly helpful. Put your microphone on.
Speaker 1: So this weekend, I'm with a friend of mine and
Speaker 1: he's having a little problem with his with his instant
Speaker 1: mess what he called um his eye message, no text
Speaker 1: this text messaging also known as I messaging, because I
Speaker 1: sent him a text and then he writes me, what's
Speaker 1: the matter. You won't answer my questions? And I'm like,
Speaker 1: I send it again and won't happen. So I called,
Speaker 1: I said, what are you talking about? It sent you
Speaker 1: for tech to forbid you had to make a phone
Speaker 1: call as opposed to texting somebody home my word. So
Speaker 1: I look, I I have my kids download my apps
Speaker 1: for me. I don't know. I'm shocked to hear that. Well,
Speaker 1: they got to earn their being funny, I got to
Speaker 1: earn their their bed and their rent. They gotta pay
Speaker 1: rent and some capacity. And if dad wants a download,
Speaker 1: just do it. What's the big deal for them? In seconds,
Speaker 1: they actually get impatient and they're like, Dad, can just
Speaker 1: give me the phone, give me the phone, I'll do it.
Speaker 1: That would be b B be done, b b b
Speaker 1: b bee done. And then it's actually annoying because I
Speaker 1: just don't have no interest to try and get beyond
Speaker 1: the usage of my phone. If I wanted to use
Speaker 1: more of my phone, I would spend the time I'd
Speaker 1: read the handbook. I don't ever want to read how
Speaker 1: to handbook in my life. It's monotonous. And when I
Speaker 1: have somebody like Linda works for me, who knows all
Speaker 1: of it, why do I have to bother? But the
Speaker 1: problem is, so you're saying I'm an enabler. No, so
Speaker 1: the problem is I can't. He's not getting my message.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, all right, he's not getting my message.
Speaker 1: What do you gotta do? And then you start talking
Speaker 1: about docking, and I said, docking, I'm not talking about
Speaker 1: a doc I'm talking I'm not talking about fishing. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about just the iPhone. I wrote you that. I'm
Speaker 1: not trying. I just was trying to explain to you
Speaker 1: because you wanted. You know, we were talking about thinking.
Speaker 1: Remember when I use a PC, I don't use an Apple,
Speaker 1: I don't use a Mac. It sounded like he used
Speaker 1: a mac. The way you were describing the problem, you
Speaker 1: didn't give that information to me. So I had to
Speaker 1: deduce it through the shaun Is ums and I was
Speaker 1: able to deduce it. And I said, no, it's on iPhone.
Speaker 1: We're texting on iPhone, we're not using we're not using
Speaker 1: a dock. No. But your question was about thinking. So
Speaker 1: I had to tell you how to because he made
Speaker 1: he hit a button and it didn't accept my text,
Speaker 1: and so I wanted all. The bottom line is we
Speaker 1: got it done anyway we talk about five minutes. What
Speaker 1: we got it done? Every well? No, because you had
Speaker 1: an initial question and then you had a follow up question.
Speaker 1: Because silly me, I had to say, let me know
Speaker 1: if you need anything else. Stupid woman. That was really
Speaker 1: dumb dum. That was so stupid. That was really silly, silly,
Speaker 1: silly girl. Because then that's when the docking starts stuff,
Speaker 1: cars started taking it. What are you talking about? In
Speaker 1: thirty seconds we fixed the initial problem. I should have
Speaker 1: just stopped there. And then he asked one other question.
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I'll ask her, and there was
Speaker 1: I was like five seconds away from saying can I
Speaker 1: have his number? And I'll just call him. I would
Speaker 1: kick you out of it. It would have made my
Speaker 1: day because I started getting arrogra evated because you give
Speaker 1: me all these terms and then you finally explain if
Speaker 1: you have a MAC because I use a PC. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's a difference. And I used a PC because that's
Speaker 1: what I know and what there were, like three things
Speaker 1: is in life that throw me over the edge when
Speaker 1: something breaks. I hate it when my computer in this
Speaker 1: room doesn't work our studio. It drives me nuts. And
Speaker 1: all I keep saying is all masking for is a
Speaker 1: computer that works. That's not too much. All I want.
Speaker 1: Now I've got one, two, three, four or five computers
Speaker 1: and two televisions in the studio, which is perfect because
Speaker 1: I have a d H D. If I was a
Speaker 1: kid in school today, I guarantee you when all the
Speaker 1: other kids line up for their riddle and I would
Speaker 1: be on that line, they would would have loved to
Speaker 1: riddle of me as a kid. I don't think it
Speaker 1: existed back in my day, but if they if I
Speaker 1: was in school today, definitely on the line, Oh, they
Speaker 1: would have loved it. They probably would have given me
Speaker 1: something else, like to calm me down, you know, turn
Speaker 1: me into a zombie, which I think schools would like
Speaker 1: to do to some of the kids. Meanwhile, I'm just
Speaker 1: being a regular kid. That's what kids do. Kids don't
Speaker 1: They're not interested in your stupid lectures about Paradise Lost
Speaker 1: or your lectures about Dante's Inferno, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: since i've read it as an adult, I love it.
Speaker 1: Absolutely go crazy, I can't, it's so cool. But when
Speaker 1: I was young, when they were teaching it, I think
Speaker 1: in ninth grade we had to read Dante's Inferno, I'm like, oh, man, oh,
Speaker 1: you're killing me. You know. Then the summer before you
Speaker 1: had to read The Old Man in the Sea, which
Speaker 1: was a good actually like that one. I got along
Speaker 1: with They're in a stemming way, Okay. He was pretty cool.
Speaker 1: It was a great story about the Marlin, about the
Speaker 1: Long Fight and um and all these you know, all
Speaker 1: the classics they made us read all that stuff. But
Speaker 1: then when I got older and I didn't have a
Speaker 1: TV for five years, that's when I read all the
Speaker 1: Harvard Classics and I had a whole setu. They were
Speaker 1: called the Harvard Classics, and I started to get a
Speaker 1: real education. Once I got out of school, it's so funny.
Speaker 1: You know. I love I love these stories when they
Speaker 1: write about me occasionally, and I've gone through this my
Speaker 1: whole career. Rush Limbaugh drop Sean Hannity drop out. It's
Speaker 1: this Mike Really Russia is the most successful broadcaster singlehandedly.
Speaker 1: The guy saved AM radio. I mean it paved the
Speaker 1: way for all of us in radio. He's a genius.
Speaker 1: He has a take on things that he thinks at
Speaker 1: the level. I don't think that he thinks differently than
Speaker 1: I do. Mark has gifts that nobody else has. I
Speaker 1: do a show very differently. And but and that's why
Speaker 1: when they talk about talk radio generally, this election proved
Speaker 1: more than ever we're not all alike. We don't agree
Speaker 1: on everything, and I think that's good for listeners. And
Speaker 1: even if you were never Trump talk show host, whatever,
Speaker 1: I don't care. They hate me, but I don't hate them.
Speaker 1: They attack me. I didn't. I only respond, well, I
Speaker 1: kind of broke that rule earlier today on Twitter. You don't.
Speaker 1: I don't like bullies. I just don't, and I refuse to.
Speaker 1: You know, I'll tell you a story. I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you that any story. So there is this kid in
Speaker 1: grammar school. It was like the smartest, smartest math kid
Speaker 1: in the whole class. I won't give his name. I
Speaker 1: don't embarrass him. And then there was this other kid.
Speaker 1: It was like a rich, blue blood brat, and he
Speaker 1: punched us kid and I like threw him up against
Speaker 1: the wall, said, don't touch this kid. What are you doing?
Speaker 1: What do you don't do that. I met this guy
Speaker 1: years later when we were in Phoenix, and he remembered it.
Speaker 1: I was stunned. And of course he's successful because he
Speaker 1: was brilliant. He was for the smartest cow older are
Speaker 1: you when that happened? Grade? Mr Schneider hit in my guts.
Speaker 1: I had her for two grades. Oh, she was awful.
Speaker 1: She was the worst perfume two. It's horrible. It was
Speaker 1: just like, oh God, get away with that. Gee, never
Speaker 1: forget it. She was not She was not nice to me.
Speaker 1: Why why I have to be nice to them when
Speaker 1: they're not nice to me. She was not a nice
Speaker 1: person to me. There's even a worst story that you know.
Speaker 1: One day when I passed away, John Gomez will tell
Speaker 1: the whole world what happened In fifth grade. Teacher started
Speaker 1: hitting all the boys, Yeah, twisting their ears, pulling their
Speaker 1: hair because apparently the boys were bad that day. In
Speaker 1: other words, boys were being boys and they were being normal.
Speaker 1: All of this to me, I put in the category
Speaker 1: of being normal and I just was not having it.
Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. Don't put your hands on me.
Speaker 1: And I stood up for myself. And I didn't get
Speaker 1: thrown out of school either. I didn't. I'm not letting
Speaker 1: anyone touch me. I would never never happen. And you
Speaker 1: guys make fun of my ninja. I was in ninja
Speaker 1: before I knew what ninja is and martial arts. All right,
Speaker 1: let me finish my thought. I'm I'm digressing a lot
Speaker 1: here today and I apologize for that. So everybody around
Speaker 1: the president is being attacked Kelly Anne, even a ten
Speaker 1: year old son, now his grandson, then his children of
Speaker 1: Vanka really would picking on girls and little little kids
Speaker 1: Eric Trump, Don jrs Son And it's unbelievable to me
Speaker 1: that that that's happening. What is going on here is
Speaker 1: a very organized effort to vilify and demonize anybody associated
Speaker 1: with the president. There's even a really good article by
Speaker 1: Paul Sperry today writing that you know, Obama's setting up
Speaker 1: a shadow White House. I have a friend on the
Speaker 1: down low that thinks that Obama set this up with
Speaker 1: some executive orders. He told me today. I'm now looking
Speaker 1: into it. But anyway, the this was from a New
Speaker 1: York Post story that Sperry did and is setting up
Speaker 1: a shadow white House for organizing anti Trump protestination wide
Speaker 1: and rebuilding the ravage Democratic Party. Of course he is.
Speaker 1: It's exactly what I predicted he would do, because everything
Speaker 1: he's done in the last eight years is pretty much
Speaker 1: being wiped out daily. You know. Then now you've got
Speaker 1: a new narrative emerging here. You know, Jim Webb said,
Speaker 1: there's a campaign on Capitol Hill, in the media and
Speaker 1: academia senator from Virginia and to sixteen Democratic presidential vice
Speaker 1: presidential presidential candidate underway in Capitol Hill, in the media
Speaker 1: and academia to personally discredit Donald Trump. Then you got
Speaker 1: guys like Bill Maher. You know, Trump is mentally ill,
Speaker 1: Al Franken questioning his health. I saw two guys on
Speaker 1: CNN this weekend questioning his mental health. Al Frankin saying
Speaker 1: that Pocahontas nickname for Lion Liz Warren, is racist. She's
Speaker 1: not a minority, you idiot, And they're just the people
Speaker 1: talking about him running for president. And you have militants. Now,
Speaker 1: we have people being paid to attack. They're going after
Speaker 1: Kelly Ann and Steve Bannon and now Steve Miller, and
Speaker 1: they're gonna rank some shures on the list somewhere there,
Speaker 1: and they're gonna go after him. By the way, you
Speaker 1: know who warned everybody about this? Hello me? I told
Speaker 1: every person that I know this is gonna this is
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen, and this is how they're gonna do it.
Speaker 1: Go the Grammys last night, you got bust the rhymes?
Speaker 1: Is he's still even out there. I haven't even heard
Speaker 1: from him in fifteen years anyway. Referred to President Donald
Speaker 1: Trump as President Agent Orange's so creative, and this is
Speaker 1: what they want to do. They want to demonize they
Speaker 1: the problem is is what Trump is doing. All of
Speaker 1: these establishments are being destroyed. Fake news is devastating to
Speaker 1: the news media. Being called out as often as they
Speaker 1: are and exposed as devastating. Wiki leaks was devastating for them.
Speaker 1: So they're upset. Then the good old boys in d C,
Speaker 1: including Republicans, you know, they don't like it. Either because
Speaker 1: now they may have to actually work for a living
Speaker 1: and may have to fulfill a promise even though it's controversial.
Speaker 1: So you got the Republican establishment against Trump, and then
Speaker 1: you've got the Democratic establishment obviously against Trump. So they
Speaker 1: gotta go after everyone around him suggest he's mentally unstable. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: he's rolling up his hands, working harder than any anybody
Speaker 1: with shock and awe and real movement in d C.
Speaker 1: What vetting refugees from from other countries that have ties
Speaker 1: in some way to terror, building a wall, but saying
Speaker 1: you're putting a door in the wall. Jorge Ramos is
Speaker 1: on Hannity tonight. Yeah, what are you gonna get into
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun or the economy to stimulate growth
Speaker 1: and create jobs for people in Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland, or
Speaker 1: getting rid of the disaster Obamacare five thousand four increase
Speaker 1: that's before this year's increases, making America energy independent. You know,
Speaker 1: what do you think the NBA is gonna do when
Speaker 1: he starts giving local communities choice and education? They're gonna
Speaker 1: go nuts. This is all predictable, And here's my message
Speaker 1: to anybody that has a backbone in Washington. They're never
Speaker 1: gonna like you. You know what I've gotten over being liked.
Speaker 1: I don't care if these media people are political people
Speaker 1: like me. I don't like them. I don't like that's
Speaker 1: I don't like how they roll. They don't like how
Speaker 1: I roll. I'm fine with. That's why I don't go
Speaker 1: to Washington Correspondence dinner. You know I gave my Uh
Speaker 1: you think I should go this year? Why do you
Speaker 1: think I should go this year and sit in a
Speaker 1: room of people that hate me and I hate them?
Speaker 1: Why would I want to do that? This is your year. No,
Speaker 1: it's not my year. I'm gonna stay home and watch
Speaker 1: it on TV like I always do. It's not my year.
Speaker 1: John Hannity, you're from the Department of Justice, if I
Speaker 1: understand correctly, Um, so you're aware of law enforcement? How
Speaker 1: many arrests have there been a foreign nationals for those
Speaker 1: seven countries since even your honor, I don't have that information.
Speaker 1: I'm from the Civil Division if that, If that helps
Speaker 1: give me out the hook any mere, Well, let me
Speaker 1: tell you the answer to that is none, as best
Speaker 1: I can tell. So, I mean, you know you're you're
Speaker 1: here arguing on behalf of someone that says we have
Speaker 1: to protect the United States from these individuals coming from
Speaker 1: these countries, and there's no support for that. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: think the point is that because this is a question
Speaker 1: of foreign affairs, because this is in an area where
Speaker 1: Congress has delegated authority to the President to make these determinations,
Speaker 1: it's the President that gets to make the determinations, and
Speaker 1: the Court doesn't have authority to look behind those determinations.
Speaker 1: They're essentially like determinations that are committed to agency discretion.
Speaker 1: And we do think that despite playing its claim that clinding,
Speaker 1: the Manzell is directly on point um and that if
Speaker 1: the if the if the four corners of the executive
Speaker 1: Executive Order off a facially legitimate and bona fide reason
Speaker 1: for it, which they do here, that that the Court
Speaker 1: can't look behind that, well, I can soil. I understand
Speaker 1: that from your from your papers, and you any very
Speaker 1: force presented that argument. But I'm also asked to look
Speaker 1: and determine if the executive Order is irrationally based. And
Speaker 1: rationally based to me implies that to some extent I
Speaker 1: have to find it grounded in facts as opposed to fictions.
Speaker 1: We all agree on the need to better secure the
Speaker 1: border and to punish employers who choose to hire illegal immigrants.
Speaker 1: You know, we are a generous and welcoming people here
Speaker 1: in the United States, but those who enter the country
Speaker 1: illegally and those who employ them disrespect the rule of law. UH,
Speaker 1: and they are showing disregard for those who are following
Speaker 1: the law. We simply cannot allow people to pour into
Speaker 1: the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked, and circumventing the line
Speaker 1: of people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and lawfully to
Speaker 1: become immigrants to implications, who are all in leaven Point,
Speaker 1: Bob doctor, immigrants in discuntry right now. We need you
Speaker 1: have a power and that's why we're Yeah, here's the
Speaker 1: problem that I have, Jose, and I've said this consistently. Um,
Speaker 1: my job in the executive branch is supposed to be
Speaker 1: to carry out the laws that are passed. UH. Congress
Speaker 1: has said here's the law when it comes to those
Speaker 1: who are undocumented, and they allocate a whole bunch of
Speaker 1: money for enforcement, something that I've struggled with throughout my presidency.
Speaker 1: The problem is that, UM, you know, I'm the President
Speaker 1: United States. I'm not the emperor of the United States.
Speaker 1: My job is to execute laws that are passed, and
Speaker 1: Congress right now has not changed what I considered to
Speaker 1: be a broken immigration system. And what that means is
Speaker 1: is that we have certain obligations to enforce the laws
Speaker 1: that are in place, even if we think that in
Speaker 1: many cases the results may be tragic. Now, what you
Speaker 1: need to know when I'm speaking as President United States
Speaker 1: and I come to this community is that if in
Speaker 1: fact I could solve of all these problems without passing
Speaker 1: laws in Congress, then I would do so. But we're
Speaker 1: also a nation of laws. That's part of our tradition,
Speaker 1: and so the easy way out is to try to
Speaker 1: yell and pretend like I can do something by violating
Speaker 1: our laws. And what I'm proposing is the harder path,
Speaker 1: which is to use our democratic processes to achieve the
Speaker 1: same goal that you want to achieve. But it won't
Speaker 1: be as easy as just shouting. It requires us lobby
Speaker 1: and getting it done. But if we start broadening that,
Speaker 1: then essentially I would be ignoring uh the law in
Speaker 1: a way that I think would be very difficult to
Speaker 1: defend legally. So that's not an option. And I do
Speaker 1: get a little worried that, uh, you know, advocates of
Speaker 1: immigration reform, uh start losing heart and immediately thinking, well, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, somehow there's an out here. If Congress doesn't act, well,
Speaker 1: we'll just have the presidents sign something and and and
Speaker 1: that will take care of and we won't have to
Speaker 1: worry about it. What I've said is is that there's
Speaker 1: a path to get this done, and that's through Congress.
Speaker 1: And we've kind of stretched our administrative flexibility as much
Speaker 1: as we can. And that's why making sure that we
Speaker 1: get comprehensive immigration reform done is so important. It is
Speaker 1: gonna require work. It is not simply a matter of
Speaker 1: us just saying we're going to violate the law. That's
Speaker 1: not our tradition. He did it anyway, He violated what
Speaker 1: he said was he illegal and unconstitutional? Anyway? And then
Speaker 1: you hear him talking about immigration just a few years earlier,
Speaker 1: and he sounds an awful like like Donald Trump and
Speaker 1: cultures with us, the author of in Trump We Trust
Speaker 1: Eat Pluribus. Awesome. What's up, Madame Caulter? How are you fine? Thanks?
Speaker 1: I'm a little disturbed by the uselessness of Republicans in Congress. Ah,
Speaker 1: you and me both. Have you heard me ranting about it? Now,
Speaker 1: what does that mean? This judge ropart immediately? What are
Speaker 1: they doing over there? This is really I don't think
Speaker 1: people understand and how outrageous this is. There is absolutely
Speaker 1: no question but that the President of the United States
Speaker 1: has the authority to exclude, um, anyone, anyone he wants,
Speaker 1: including permanent residents. I might add, though, that's not what
Speaker 1: this order does. UM. And and what you played at
Speaker 1: the beginning there with the judge, you know, getting into
Speaker 1: the policy behind what you see on TV of Well,
Speaker 1: but are they really that dangerous? Okay? Well, besides the
Speaker 1: fact that factually, UM, these are the seven countries designated
Speaker 1: by the Obama administration under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
Speaker 1: as terrorist nations or as the State Department began to
Speaker 1: call that under Madeline Albright, countries of particular concern. These
Speaker 1: were the seven countries designated UM by Obama and Hillary Clinton. Um,
Speaker 1: this is a a two month ban, um or three
Speaker 1: months whatever it is, UM paused so we can figure
Speaker 1: out how to let them in the idea that a
Speaker 1: federal judge would come in and start picking over over
Speaker 1: what the facts are. And by the way, in the
Speaker 1: process getting the facts wrong. UM. As you know and
Speaker 1: probably all your listeners know by now, they have been UM,
Speaker 1: what what dozens of attacks by people from every one
Speaker 1: of these seven countries some I've written about UM in
Speaker 1: the past few years or not not attacks by terrorist
Speaker 1: convictions at a minimum, that's not only an arrest, that's
Speaker 1: a conviction. For two hundred years, the Supreme Court has
Speaker 1: said over and over and over again, the power to
Speaker 1: exclude aliens is completely in the control of the President
Speaker 1: of the United States as an extension of foreign policy.
Speaker 1: And one case that that I wrote about, I was
Speaker 1: surprised no one else was mentioning UM in my column
Speaker 1: last week is hey, everybody remember Elian Gonzalez. The Clinton
Speaker 1: administration policy was to you know, it was an extension
Speaker 1: of their love for for Stalin and alger His We
Speaker 1: have to send this kid back to a communist dictatorship,
Speaker 1: have to send them back, and it did want The
Speaker 1: administration didn't want to admit that. So first they tried
Speaker 1: deporting Elion as a matter of a child's custody case,
Speaker 1: and all the Quinton officials were saying, oh no, this
Speaker 1: isn't our responsibility. It's just up to the Florida courts
Speaker 1: on on child custody. Well, the Florida courts under proper
Speaker 1: child custody laws, I might add, said no, Elion gets
Speaker 1: to stay in Miami. Um. Okay, so um. Clinton administration
Speaker 1: goes back to the drawing board. Then they say, well,
Speaker 1: Elion has applied for asylum. Um, but you can't apply
Speaker 1: for asylum if you're only six years old. That goes
Speaker 1: to the courts, and again the courts find, um, actually
Speaker 1: there's no age restriction here, Mr President. So then how
Speaker 1: does the Clinton administration force Elion to go back to
Speaker 1: Cuba by saying this is our policy. And at that point,
Speaker 1: the federal appellate courts in Florida, and you can read
Speaker 1: the decisions, say, um, look, we will concede. Elion will
Speaker 1: be may well be subjected to re education, to political persecution,
Speaker 1: to living in a horrible communist dictatorship. But ha ha,
Speaker 1: this is the policy of the president. Our hands are taught.
Speaker 1: So when the policy of the president is to promote
Speaker 1: international communism, the courts stepped back and wash their hands
Speaker 1: of it. No, this is political branches. Um. And And
Speaker 1: in the Arizona case, Um, under under Obama, Arizona didn't
Speaker 1: want to enforce any laws beyond what the federal law was. No,
Speaker 1: they just said, our state is being overwhelmed with illegal aliens.
Speaker 1: We want to have our law enforcement officers simply enforce
Speaker 1: written laws on the books, signed, signed by the president, um,
Speaker 1: you know, passed by both Houses of Congress, and the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court found at least for those provisions of the law. No,
Speaker 1: you can't. If the president's policy is we're not enforcing
Speaker 1: federal immigration law, you have to stand down states. That's
Speaker 1: how powerful this, this principle of constitutional law that the
Speaker 1: president controls who comes in, who doesn't come in, how
Speaker 1: to enforce immigration laws. This is a political matter. The courts,
Speaker 1: I mean literally, going back to the Chinese exclusion cases
Speaker 1: probably before that, have said over and over again, this
Speaker 1: is part of foreign policy, making treaties excluding foreigners, and
Speaker 1: if the foreigners being excluded, if the leaders of their
Speaker 1: governments have a problem with that, they deal with the president.
Speaker 1: You know what's amazing, And I love your your legal
Speaker 1: mind because you are able to add the context and
Speaker 1: texture to your comments and I think it's appropriate. But
Speaker 1: the Constitution is very clear. Judicial activists on the Ninth
Speaker 1: Circuit or this guy in Seattle did not have the
Speaker 1: role as commander in chief. The law which is, you know,
Speaker 1: as there's no ambiguity whatsoever. Eight Uscnight two. And you've
Speaker 1: heard it, and I've I've read it many times on
Speaker 1: the program. I won't do it now. But if the
Speaker 1: President finds that the entry of any alien or class
Speaker 1: of aliens and the the US is detrimental, he has
Speaker 1: full and complete authority to take steps to protect the
Speaker 1: American people and for me, And it comes down on
Speaker 1: a simple question. Are we willing to inconvenience a few
Speaker 1: visit hitters and it's only going to be a few
Speaker 1: for the safety and security of the American people, Or
Speaker 1: are we just going to be so politically correct we'll
Speaker 1: gamble with the lives of Americans when we know there's
Speaker 1: an enemy that wants to destroy us. Well, I think
Speaker 1: it ought to be a lot more than a few.
Speaker 1: I think that is the result the reason for this election.
Speaker 1: The public has been begging for less immigration overall. Forget
Speaker 1: the ones from from the country's designated bottomed by a
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton State Department as terrorist countries for decades. Now
Speaker 1: you ask Americans whether do you want immigration to stay
Speaker 1: the same? Go up or be reduced. Nobody wants it
Speaker 1: to go up. And I believe it's been a consistent
Speaker 1: majority saying no few or few or fewer immigrants. We've
Speaker 1: taken in enough. America needs a break. We have taken
Speaker 1: as I describe in adiosa America um for the past
Speaker 1: several decades, America has taken in more refugees than the
Speaker 1: entire rest of the world combine. Our country is not
Speaker 1: a battered woman's shelter. We're not here to take in
Speaker 1: all the chair the cases of the world. This was
Speaker 1: the point of this election. Please help us, the American people,
Speaker 1: including immigrants who have Communist stay right there. I've got
Speaker 1: to take a break. We're gonna hold you over and
Speaker 1: Culter as with us making America first, safe and great again.
Speaker 1: This is the Sean Hannity Show, right as we continue
Speaker 1: with uh and Culter eight nine four one, Shawn, if
Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program. You
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier about Republicans and you know, isn't it beyond
Speaker 1: any comprehension that they don't have a consensus replacement plan
Speaker 1: for Obama Care that they're talking about. Well, maybe they'll
Speaker 1: get to the President's economic plan when you have all
Speaker 1: these people out of work, in poverty on food steps. Well,
Speaker 1: maybe we'll get to it in the spring. Maybe it'll
Speaker 1: be in the summer of the fall. And I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has done more in three weeks, the most
Speaker 1: president's accomplished in any given two years at least. Why
Speaker 1: can't they keep up? Why are they so far behind?
Speaker 1: Why are their articles their article after article saying well,
Speaker 1: we're not sure if we really want to replace it now,
Speaker 1: when they voted fifty times when it was meaningless to
Speaker 1: replace it. No, I know what exactly is the House
Speaker 1: of Representatives doing? I mean the Senate, not that it
Speaker 1: requires their their undivided as engine they do have to
Speaker 1: pass Trump's nominees. But what has the House been? Are
Speaker 1: all the House members doing just having lunch every day?
Speaker 1: What is going on over there? Um? And would like
Speaker 1: to me they're they're eating in our cafeterias that we
Speaker 1: pay for and the gyms that we pay for, and
Speaker 1: would like to be able to buy an insurance plan
Speaker 1: that that will provide cancer coverage. I'm really sick of this.
Speaker 1: Oh we may we may not get And and by
Speaker 1: the way, I think, what is what the hold up
Speaker 1: is I could be wrong, um, but Trump, God bless him,
Speaker 1: UM was the first Republican in an awful long time
Speaker 1: to say, no, I'm not cutting Social Security, I'm not
Speaker 1: cutting Medicaid. UM forget this entitlement reform. And I agree
Speaker 1: with him. Americans have paid into it. And the reason
Speaker 1: these programs are being bankruperupted is that we keep dumping
Speaker 1: millions of poor people on the country who instantly access
Speaker 1: Social Security, Medicare, and medicaids. That's why the programs are bankrupts.
Speaker 1: So um, hey, Paul Ryan, instead of cutting back on
Speaker 1: my Social Security and my Medicare and and completely um
Speaker 1: destroying health insurance with Obamacare, how about how about you
Speaker 1: stop signing up poverty stricken foreigners for these programs. That's
Speaker 1: the point one. That is not what Obamacare is. But
Speaker 1: they seem to be associating Obamacare as if it's one
Speaker 1: of these entitlements. And obviously Trump was popular and saying no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna save these I'm going to get the economy
Speaker 1: UM going. I'm going to um stop dumping poor people
Speaker 1: on the country and deport a whole bunch of them,
Speaker 1: UM hoping um, you know, illegal aliens of illegal aliens
Speaker 1: are on government assistance seventy one percent until that number
Speaker 1: is zero. I don't want to hear about how government's
Speaker 1: assistance programs for Americans have to be cut back and
Speaker 1: the retirement age raised and so on and so forth. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: this is this is your job. This is what got
Speaker 1: Trump all elected. But they've got to stop thinking of
Speaker 1: Obamacare as something that is that is the same as
Speaker 1: Social Security. Moreover, they're so frustrating, these Republicans do. They
Speaker 1: have no sense of drama and theater. They need to
Speaker 1: find people, probably more sympathetic than me, but there are
Speaker 1: a lot of them out there who have had their
Speaker 1: health insurance destroyed by Obamacare. Get young couples who are
Speaker 1: both self employed, who can no longer um, who are
Speaker 1: paying massive premiums and cannot be treated by any doctor
Speaker 1: who went to an American medical school. I know they're busy,
Speaker 1: they're busy working. You gotta get them before Congress. They
Speaker 1: are be calling doctors who will tell you, as any
Speaker 1: doctor will, of of of all the money spent on
Speaker 1: on healthcare on a dollar goes to defensive medicine to
Speaker 1: protect themselves from the trial lawyers. We want tort reform
Speaker 1: so quick, we're running out of time. But listen, and
Speaker 1: and we want to buy health insurance on the free market,
Speaker 1: the hard cases. As said from the beginning, that's a
Speaker 1: different case. Don't worry, You'll be paid for. But we
Speaker 1: don't have time to fly to Washington and protests and
Speaker 1: lobby and how are ex actually to pay for the
Speaker 1: health insurance of illegal aliens and the education and the
Speaker 1: criminal justice system. We pay for it all. And always
Speaker 1: good to have you. I miss seeing you. Hope we'll
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll get to you, get you back when you're
Speaker 1: in New York. Let me know. Okay, good to talk
Speaker 1: to you, Sean A Sean, we'll take a break, we'll
Speaker 1: come back. You can't believe what d C. McAllister wrote.
Speaker 1: An awesome column. I'll tell you about that next solid
Speaker 1: as a rock, honest, truthful. This is the Sean Hannity Show,
Speaker 1: alright till the top of the hour. Toll free. Our
Speaker 1: telephone numbers undred nine one, Shawn, if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. Uh, we're gonna get
Speaker 1: to the d C. Mccalister's column in a minute. But
Speaker 1: before I go there, look at what's happening to the
Speaker 1: Trump family. I've been making the case that anybody that
Speaker 1: gets anywhere near Donald Trump, all those that surround him,
Speaker 1: is gonna be vilified and demonized. Let's see, we've gone
Speaker 1: through Kelly and Conway, We've gone through Darth Vader, uh,
Speaker 1: Steve Bannon. They're going after Steve Miller and The New
Speaker 1: York Times and these unwatched cable hosts. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just pathetic. It's pathetic. I think the most pathetic thing was,
Speaker 1: you know, you have a Saturday Night Live writer attacking
Speaker 1: a ten year old boy. Imagine if this was Malia
Speaker 1: or Sasha. Imagine if it was Chelsea and you have
Speaker 1: that Rosie ol'donald making a some type of medical diagnosis. Well, Rosie,
Speaker 1: I know this kid. This kid is a great kid.
Speaker 1: He's smart, intelligent, kind, nice, he's he's a great kid.
Speaker 1: He's ten years old. And they were attacking a little kid.
Speaker 1: Then you got oh Avonka, Oh what a disaster. She
Speaker 1: actually one of her one of her assistants, tweeted out
Speaker 1: when she was on sixty Minutes that she was wearing
Speaker 1: a particular bracelet she designed. You'd think it was the
Speaker 1: end of the world. Or Kelly in Conway, you know, said, well,
Speaker 1: after what Nordstrom did, and you've got now all these
Speaker 1: chains attacking the Trump's. Eric Trump, great guy, raises millions
Speaker 1: and millions and millions of dollars for kids with cancer.
Speaker 1: Doesn't even work with St. Jude's. Okay, he's not working
Speaker 1: with St. Jude's anymore because of the backlash of the
Speaker 1: left attacking you know, the fact, well they might be
Speaker 1: connected to his father in some way when he's giving
Speaker 1: all the money away that they're trying to curry favor.
Speaker 1: Now it gets even worse, and it shouldn't shock anybody,
Speaker 1: But Don Junior sends his son to a particular school
Speaker 1: in New York and one of some anonymous contributor said
Speaker 1: their son had gotten into the school when they gave
Speaker 1: the school, and might as well get It's called the
Speaker 1: Buckley School. It's a really well known school, very difficult
Speaker 1: to get into. But she didn't want to send them
Speaker 1: there because of the son of Donald Trump Junior. Now
Speaker 1: I have a friend of mine who sends his son there,
Speaker 1: and he told me, good, you don't belong there because
Speaker 1: it's such a great place. And nobody is upset that
Speaker 1: Donald Trump juniors kids and I met them who and
Speaker 1: they're amazing. Goes to the school. Just it's so disgraceful. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Emily Shier is joining us as long as from the
Speaker 1: Federalist and columnists author D. C. McAllister, Welcome both of
Speaker 1: you to the show. How are you, Thanks so much.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty well. I gotta believe that if I did
Speaker 1: what they're doing to the Trump kids, especially the younger ones,
Speaker 1: that you would, uh. And if I did it to
Speaker 1: Malee and Sasha, Emily, you'd be pretty you'd be pretty
Speaker 1: angry at me, wouldn't you. Yeah, you know, the funny
Speaker 1: thing is, and it's not actually funny. One of Bustles
Speaker 1: most traffic articles was about how you should not at
Speaker 1: all go after Baron Trump, that it is completely inappropriate,
Speaker 1: that the Saturday Night Live joke was wrong. I think
Speaker 1: there should absolutely be a level of respect and privacy, uh,
Speaker 1: when it comes to miners, even your miners, in the
Speaker 1: public eye because their father's president. Yeah. Well, and you know,
Speaker 1: I just can't believe you could go after a ten
Speaker 1: year old kid or the grandson of the President of
Speaker 1: the United States the way this other person did. What's
Speaker 1: your reaction to this d C. McAlister, Well, they're going
Speaker 1: after Ivanka and the picture that she had. She tweeted
Speaker 1: out a picture of her with her son from the
Speaker 1: White House, and she was immediately excoriated by the way
Speaker 1: all she said with taking a call in the White
Speaker 1: House with my personal assistant, Theodore, who was her son, right,
Speaker 1: And then this actress comedian tweets out, you know, is
Speaker 1: this a joke. You're making a mockery of women, working
Speaker 1: mothers and moms, her homemakers without additional careers, making this
Speaker 1: big fuss about Ivanka's tweet, which was completely ridiculous, And
Speaker 1: it's just more evidence that feminists do not support women.
Speaker 1: They have a cause, they have an agenda, they have
Speaker 1: a liberal agenda. They don't stand by women. They should
Speaker 1: be admiring Ivanka Trump. She's a great mother, a great businesswoman,
Speaker 1: she is a faithful daughter. She should be praised about
Speaker 1: that and not criticized for that. And what is it
Speaker 1: that we were supposed to leave women out of the
Speaker 1: associations with their men, weren't we? Weren't we told that
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton should not be judged in White of her spend,
Speaker 1: even though Hillary was complicit and actually um against the
Speaker 1: women who were accusing him of sexual assault. You know,
Speaker 1: we don't have that kind of grace that we extend
Speaker 1: to Ivanka Trump because the feminist movement has become completely
Speaker 1: corrupted with this liberal agenda. You know you wrote this.
Speaker 1: I want to read a little bit of what you
Speaker 1: wrote in your column. You said women can be vicious.
Speaker 1: Just ask men ouch. Then you said better yet, ask
Speaker 1: other women, if they're honest, they'll tell you that women
Speaker 1: could be harsh to their own kind, especially liberal women.
Speaker 1: That's what makes feminist campaigns like the Women's March a
Speaker 1: bit of a joke. It's not about women sticking up
Speaker 1: for one another. It's about liberal women advancing their own
Speaker 1: liberal agenda, and if you're not on board, your attack viciously.
Speaker 1: And they did prevent pro life women from marching in
Speaker 1: that particular. We didn't prevent them from march, yes, them
Speaker 1: from being sponsored. I interviewed pro life feminists, we interviewed
Speaker 1: on this We interviewed, I interviewed him on this program
Speaker 1: right here on this show. A woman who was told
Speaker 1: not to come. Well, I've interviewed women who went and
Speaker 1: had a fantastic experience, okay, but that were denied sponsorship,
Speaker 1: which I think is wrong. But they went and they marched,
Speaker 1: and they look at that Blum that speaks volumes with
Speaker 1: the feminist movement today. They stand for a liberal agenda.
Speaker 1: They do not stand for women. They don't. And you know,
Speaker 1: to say that, you know that we're misguided, not understanding
Speaker 1: the feminist movement. We do. The feminist movement has been
Speaker 1: co opted by status. It is not about semin feminism,
Speaker 1: it's not about femininity, it's not about women, it's not
Speaker 1: about freedom. It's about this faux idea of equality, this
Speaker 1: oppression of women, that women are somehow up held down
Speaker 1: by men, when it's really what the feminist movement is
Speaker 1: wanting is bigger government to be invaded in our lives
Speaker 1: in order to get an agenda across. And we see
Speaker 1: it repeatedly in these movements and if you aren't on
Speaker 1: board with that agenda, you're rejected. That's why conservative women,
Speaker 1: conservative pundits, conservative politicians are just destroyed. I thought that
Speaker 1: feminism applauded working women. I thought feminism and you know,
Speaker 1: I thought another good point that you made in your
Speaker 1: article is that a Vanka's tweet didn't mock other women
Speaker 1: of back many women would identify with her, I deify
Speaker 1: with her, and stay at home moms would be like, great, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's a great mom. Great, bring your kid to work.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's they're pitting women against one another instead
Speaker 1: of standing for actually women's free choices, and the right
Speaker 1: would actually say, you're doing more to pit women against No,
Speaker 1: I'm not hypocrisy. I'm not saying anyone against anyone. I
Speaker 1: am calling out the feminist movement, not individual women, and
Speaker 1: I'm not pitting one woman against another. I am calling
Speaker 1: out the hypocrisy of what the feminist movement has actually become.
Speaker 1: What I would say to that is that many women,
Speaker 1: in fact do admire a Vanka. She is certainly an
Speaker 1: aspirational role model figure. She did take an active role
Speaker 1: in her father's campaign, and people who disagree with her
Speaker 1: father's politics pushed back against her when she took on
Speaker 1: an active campaign. But in fairness, but stop for a second.
Speaker 1: In fairness, they're attacking her for the most trivial, insignificant
Speaker 1: things that they come up with. That's number one. Number two,
Speaker 1: All right, Ivanka is an adult. And but I'll tell
Speaker 1: you this, if I attacked Chelsea Clinton the way that
Speaker 1: Ivanka is being attacked, I would be called a misogynist
Speaker 1: and a sexist and be disgraceful. Um. So there is
Speaker 1: a double standard number one, number two, and Eric can
Speaker 1: defend Himselvin don Jr. But they're also attacking a ten
Speaker 1: year old kid and the grandson of the president, one
Speaker 1: who was fired pretty swiftly attacked. I do not see
Speaker 1: widespread No, actually it was more than one. There was
Speaker 1: no no, wait a minute. The attacks on Barren were
Speaker 1: numerous and vicious, including ridiculous diagnosis about his condition because
Speaker 1: at four in the morning the kid was fidgeting and tired. Good. Agree,
Speaker 1: I'm from fifty five and I fidgetts against Barren Trump
Speaker 1: are ridiculous. But if you're holding up one fired a
Speaker 1: writer and I'm not, you know, I should hold up
Speaker 1: Alex joneson to represent Okay, Okay, if Alex Jones is
Speaker 1: going after the children, tell me about it and I'll
Speaker 1: call Alex Jones actually have gone after Okay. I want
Speaker 1: when she got caught smoking pot? No, I believe it
Speaker 1: was before then. And by the way, Chelsea Clinton was
Speaker 1: made fun of tremendously for her looks as an adolescent.
Speaker 1: It doesn't it shouldn't go after this, But wait a minute.
Speaker 1: What I'm talking I want to focus on, like the
Speaker 1: feminist movement and about what it's going on, what it's
Speaker 1: doing today to our society and what we're seeing and
Speaker 1: what we saw at the Women's March, it was just ridiculous.
Speaker 1: And they're not standing for women, and I want to
Speaker 1: make that clear. They're not. They're standing for a status agenda.
Speaker 1: They're clamoring about equality that is not a legitimate claim,
Speaker 1: and they're talking about oppression that does not exist. And
Speaker 1: it's causing great divisions, and we're attacking people like Ivanka,
Speaker 1: We're attacking conservative women, were attacking people because of their ideology.
Speaker 1: They don't stand for freedom, they stand for oppression themselves. There.
Speaker 1: It's just not right and we need to call it out.
Speaker 1: And I think we need to hold the feminist movement
Speaker 1: to account for its hypocrisy, is double standards and it's
Speaker 1: uh not standing for women. I think you're defining the
Speaker 1: feminist movement uh in a misguided way, because feminism, as
Speaker 1: it's hard, is about political, social, and economic opportunities for women.
Speaker 1: And you see the feminist movement as an inherently pro
Speaker 1: choice one. I haven't even missed one choice. I'm sad
Speaker 1: talking about it. I know many women who identifies them
Speaker 1: is who don't identifies those values. And if you want
Speaker 1: to paint the feminist movement in a narrow, narrow way
Speaker 1: that makes it very part is in you. That's your prerogative.
Speaker 1: That's fine, but I don't think that's helpful and in
Speaker 1: fact accurate to paint feminism in such a regard. Now,
Speaker 1: you're the one who's being dishonest about what actually you
Speaker 1: think feminism stands for. You think feminism has to do
Speaker 1: with oppression of women and that them fighting for equality
Speaker 1: in America. Right, Please tell me what I think. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you do because I've read your writings and that's
Speaker 1: what you think. You think that women are not equal
Speaker 1: to men before the law in the society, and that
Speaker 1: somehow women are oppressed. That's why you're a feminist. You
Speaker 1: want to women, feminists and the face in your opinion
Speaker 1: in America, and you think they're oppressed. Women are not
Speaker 1: oppressed before the law in this country. Women have equal
Speaker 1: rights before the law. There isn't a equal pay gap there,
Speaker 1: there's only a wage gap there is. You know, you
Speaker 1: are pushing an agenda that's actually causing greater divisions in
Speaker 1: this country and is not really standing for women and
Speaker 1: they're not standing. You're not standing for women's freedom in
Speaker 1: your in your cry for equality, and you're quiet and
Speaker 1: across the board in the relation with ships with men.
Speaker 1: You are actually undermining the freedom of women. You're not
Speaker 1: standing for them. Okay, So I am, yes, undermining the
Speaker 1: freedom of women in my writing. I honestly do not
Speaker 1: know what you're pointing to to get to this. I
Speaker 1: am a feminist and I do think there are nuanced
Speaker 1: battles for women in the United States to be tackling.
Speaker 1: I also, by the way, completely agree with you that
Speaker 1: the wage gap, the seventy seven cents on a dollar,
Speaker 1: is not accurate. Let me hold you both, Emily, hold
Speaker 1: that thought. D C. McAlister, hold that thought one, Shawn,
Speaker 1: and you want to be a part of the program
Speaker 1: News round Up. In Information Overload, we'll get back to
Speaker 1: our top story, which is the need to vet refugees
Speaker 1: in this country. In the ongoing battle uncovering evil and
Speaker 1: defending the truth on the Sean Show. Right as we
Speaker 1: continue with d C. McAllister and Emily Shyer, we're debating
Speaker 1: a lot of the attacks on the children and grandchildren
Speaker 1: now of Donald Trump, and I would agree that Ivanka
Speaker 1: is tough and she can handle herself. I still think
Speaker 1: attacking her the way she did for being a working
Speaker 1: mom is so hypocritical though, of the left. And that's
Speaker 1: what you've been saying for a long time D C.
Speaker 1: McAllister about about feminism in general. There was one case
Speaker 1: where you had a congressman's aid that had to resign
Speaker 1: over he made comments. Dear Sasha and Malia. I get
Speaker 1: your both in those awful teen years, but you're part
Speaker 1: of the first family. Try showing a little class rise
Speaker 1: to the occasion, act like being in the White House
Speaker 1: matters to you. And I thought that was insulting and
Speaker 1: rude and inappropriate. Yeah, but the point is that there's
Speaker 1: a double standard. And we've been saying this ever since
Speaker 1: the election, as the left has continued to show its
Speaker 1: true colors. And again, the women's movement today, the feminist
Speaker 1: movement today is full of double, double standards and hypocrisy
Speaker 1: because it is not standing for women. And I want
Speaker 1: to make that point really clear. There this cry for equality,
Speaker 1: I want to ask Emily, where, what laws, where in
Speaker 1: our society do women not have equality before the law.
Speaker 1: And if you're going to talk about equality equal pay,
Speaker 1: that's a wage gap, and that's built on women's choices,
Speaker 1: which I thought feminists were to respect that women make
Speaker 1: separate in different choices for men, and the result is
Speaker 1: a wage gap. And they also to to bring the
Speaker 1: lucitions to these kind of things. They want bigger governments,
Speaker 1: so they're always looking to government to fix things that
Speaker 1: are just social differences. Instead of, you know, letting people
Speaker 1: be free to be different, they want a big government
Speaker 1: to impose its will on individuals and upon women in
Speaker 1: order to make things equal that can't be equalized, and
Speaker 1: so they're actually taking away women's freedom. And this is
Speaker 1: my major problem with a feminist movement state. And if
Speaker 1: you do not agree with that, you are attacked by
Speaker 1: them viciously. Well, what I would say is that I
Speaker 1: agree with you in that a lot of the ways
Speaker 1: you have is not purely men and women. It's based
Speaker 1: on the industries that people go into. Though it's also
Speaker 1: complicated because men and women often go into different industries
Speaker 1: based on parental responsibilities, child care responsibilities. That's why you know,
Speaker 1: we need to talk about issues like paid leave because
Speaker 1: it plays into the roles that people take and does
Speaker 1: how much money they make. Though I do I agree
Speaker 1: with you, I don't think it is a black and
Speaker 1: white sex discrimination issue. Um. I would also say, and
Speaker 1: especially considering that of all Americans support Roe v. Wade,
Speaker 1: forget about you're looking separately at how many women and
Speaker 1: do that when we have laws going on in Oklahoma
Speaker 1: in Arkansas that say men may be able to may
Speaker 1: be legally required to sign on for approval if women
Speaker 1: want to have abortions, I would say that's a discriminatory
Speaker 1: law as well. There's not a discriminatory law that baby
Speaker 1: is also half the father. So that's a debate, but
Speaker 1: it may not be. You don't put it in the
Speaker 1: realm of discrimination. You can have a discussion about that,
Speaker 1: but to go to sexism, to go to discrimination immediately.
Speaker 1: And also I find it always interesting whenever I start
Speaker 1: talking about discrimination and oppression of women in America and
Speaker 1: what the feminist movement is really about, they always go
Speaker 1: to abortion. So really the part of that is is
Speaker 1: that abortion involve abortion and having control over that many
Speaker 1: people think is a feminist concern. I think you can
Speaker 1: be feminist in pro life. Other people don't I think
Speaker 1: if you say in your opinion on me that all
Speaker 1: feminists things also all women who want to be feminists
Speaker 1: are all people who want to be feminists need to
Speaker 1: be pro choice is incorrect and I don't think that's
Speaker 1: how people take the movement. But I completely understand why
Speaker 1: see we gotta go if in this movement just needs
Speaker 1: to die. Honestly, it is causing greater division in our country,
Speaker 1: is causing a lot of conflict, and it doesn't stand
Speaker 1: for anything except for greater I gotta I gotta ended here.
Speaker 1: Thank you both for being will us D. C. McAlister
Speaker 1: and Emily Shire always appreciate you being with us. Thank
Speaker 1: you see right here for our final news round up
Speaker 1: and information overload that we all agree on the need
Speaker 1: to better secure the border and to punish employers who
Speaker 1: choose to hire illegal immigrants. You know, we are a
Speaker 1: generous and welcoming people here in the United States, but
Speaker 1: those who enter the country illegally and those who employ
Speaker 1: them disrespect the rule of law. Uh and they are
Speaker 1: showing disregard for those who are following the law. We
Speaker 1: simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States
Speaker 1: under tech did undocumented, unchecked and circumventing the line of
Speaker 1: people who are waiting patiently, diligently, and lawfully to become immigrants.
Speaker 1: To hold complications for all eleven point immigrants in this
Speaker 1: country right now, we need you have a power that act,
Speaker 1: and that's why we're Yeah, here's the problem that I have, Jose,
Speaker 1: and I've said this consistently. Um, my job in the
Speaker 1: executive branch is supposed to be to carry out the
Speaker 1: laws that are passed. Uh. Congress has said here's the
Speaker 1: law when it comes to those who are undocumented, and
Speaker 1: they allocate a whole bunch of money for enforcement, something
Speaker 1: that I've struggled with throughout my presidency. The problem is that, UM,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm the President United States. I'm not uh,
Speaker 1: the Emperor of the United States. Uh. My job is
Speaker 1: to execute laws that are passed. And Congress right now
Speaker 1: has not changed what I considered to be a broken
Speaker 1: immigration system. And what that means is is that we
Speaker 1: have certain obligations to enforce the laws that are in place,
Speaker 1: even if we think that in many cases the results
Speaker 1: may be tragic. Now, what you need to know when
Speaker 1: I'm speaking as President United States and I come to
Speaker 1: this community is that if in fact I could solve
Speaker 1: all these problems without passing laws in Congress, then I
Speaker 1: would do something. But we're also a nation of laws.
Speaker 1: That's part of our tradition, and so the easy way
Speaker 1: out is to try to yell and pretend like I
Speaker 1: can do something by violating our laws. And what I'm
Speaker 1: proposing is the harder path, which is to use our
Speaker 1: democratic processes to achieve the same goal that you want
Speaker 1: to achieve. But it won't be as easy as just shouting.
Speaker 1: It requires us lobby and getting it done. But if
Speaker 1: we start broadening that, then essay, truly, I would be
Speaker 1: ignoring uh the law in a way that I think
Speaker 1: would be very difficult to defend legally. So that's not
Speaker 1: an option. And I do get a little worried that, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, advocates of immigration reform uh start losing heart
Speaker 1: and immediately thinking, well, uh, you know, somehow there's a
Speaker 1: an out here. If Congress doesn't act, well, we'll just
Speaker 1: have the presidents sign something and and that will take
Speaker 1: care of them. We won't have to worry about it.
Speaker 1: What I've said is is that there's a path to
Speaker 1: get this done, and that's through Congress, and right we've
Speaker 1: kind of stretched our administrative flexibility as much as we can.
Speaker 1: And that's why making sure that we get comprehensive immigration
Speaker 1: reform done is so important. It is gonna require work.
Speaker 1: It is not simply a matter of us just saying
Speaker 1: we're gonna violate the law. That's not our tradition. Al Right, News,
Speaker 1: round up, information, overload our here on the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: There's a lot to absorb here. Now, remember twenty our
Speaker 1: team became a referendum, give us the Senate Republican said,
Speaker 1: and we will get rid of Obama's illegal, unconstitutional executive amnesty,
Speaker 1: which he ended up doing anyway, even though he said
Speaker 1: that he didn't have the authority like twenty five times.
Speaker 1: So we've got that in play. If you look at
Speaker 1: the review, and this is new information out today compiled
Speaker 1: by a Senate committee. Uh in sixteen, well, what the
Speaker 1: judge in Seattle said was absolutely false. Well, is there
Speaker 1: any evidence in nine eleven that any terrorism came from
Speaker 1: the seven countries in question? Well, we now have a
Speaker 1: report that revealed that, in fact, seventy two individuals from
Speaker 1: the seven countries covered in President Trump's vetting executive order
Speaker 1: have been convicted in terror cases since nine eleven, and
Speaker 1: that stands as stark contrast to the assertions of both
Speaker 1: the Seattle Judge Ropart and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Speaker 1: And in fact, now I think they're gonna move forward
Speaker 1: with a new executive board. I'm not saying everything was perfect,
Speaker 1: but you get the point of why this is needed
Speaker 1: and why this is necessary. Just like when I travel
Speaker 1: to other countries, they vet me before I get to
Speaker 1: go in, and everybody else anyway joining us. Kasum Rashid
Speaker 1: is with us, who I know is a national spokesperson
Speaker 1: for the Amadia Muslim community, and um Ami Horowitz, satirist, documentarian,
Speaker 1: outright good guys here as well, Kasum, how are you?
Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you? I'm good? Now? I know
Speaker 1: the the Amadia Muslim community is a little bit different
Speaker 1: inasmuch as they've been one of the few areas within
Speaker 1: the Muslim community that has been more outspoken on terrorism,
Speaker 1: right yeah, I mean, throughout our hundred and twenty year history,
Speaker 1: we've been adamant that terrorism has no place in Islam,
Speaker 1: and we've supplemented that with a proven model in each
Speaker 1: of the two inter nations. Uh that we exist, our
Speaker 1: tens of millions of members have never had a single
Speaker 1: act of terrorism, because this is the Islam that Prophet
Speaker 1: Mohammad taught years ago. All right, But then there's the
Speaker 1: little literal interpretation of like neither to take take neither
Speaker 1: Christians nor Jews for your friends. Well, you know, Sean,
Speaker 1: I mean, anyone can cherry pick, but what this verse
Speaker 1: is talking about is when you're being attacked by people,
Speaker 1: don't take them as your friend. The Koran also goes
Speaker 1: on to say that make friends with Christians and Jews,
Speaker 1: and if somebody attacks a church or synagogue, then you,
Speaker 1: as a Muslim must defend the church and the synagogue.
Speaker 1: I mean, but I'm saying that you can understand how
Speaker 1: radical islamis interpret take neither Christians or Jews from as
Speaker 1: your friends as and when you have the word infidel
Speaker 1: in there all the time, and you have apostates and
Speaker 1: you know the penalty for apostasism and many Muslim countries
Speaker 1: and death. I mean, the word infidel doesn't appear in
Speaker 1: the Koran anywhere a country. Jihad does. But yeah, jihad
Speaker 1: means struggle. Yeah, but I mean the word well, does
Speaker 1: she means struggle or does it mean holy war. It
Speaker 1: means struggle, means holy war. But jihad just means struggle
Speaker 1: against evil. And I've always understood it to mean holy war. No, no, No,
Speaker 1: that's a common mismisunderstanding sean that actually struggle the world
Speaker 1: literally means to struggle against evil. And just as a
Speaker 1: KKK claims that are a Christian organization, nobody takes them seriously. Uh,
Speaker 1: and we condemn their terrorism. But you know, these most psychopaths.
Speaker 1: You have to agree with me, though most Muslims I
Speaker 1: think for fear, out of fear that maybe are moderate
Speaker 1: Muslims that don't want to strap bombs on their own children,
Speaker 1: promise them seventy two virgins in heaven. You know, most
Speaker 1: Muslims that think like you are a lot of them.
Speaker 1: And I think this is a fair statement. Tell me
Speaker 1: if you don't think so that many are afraid to
Speaker 1: speak out because they will be viewed as traders or
Speaker 1: a post dates and and that there's enormous pressure on
Speaker 1: them to be silent. Otherwise we'd have a lot. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think it's certain regimes that might be true, but
Speaker 1: then you have you know, country like Indonesia, which is
Speaker 1: a beacon of peace for you know, you have your
Speaker 1: issues there, but it's the largest miss majority country in
Speaker 1: the world, and it's a relatively peaceful You're talking about
Speaker 1: like Saudi Arabia or rand and one being soon and
Speaker 1: the other being ship me, you're not gonna hear me
Speaker 1: defense Audi the human rights violations. I mean, this is
Speaker 1: what about. I'm not gonna hear you defend I ran
Speaker 1: either right, No, of course not, of course not. And
Speaker 1: I mean this is where leadership matters. You know, the
Speaker 1: reason why the amity a Muslim community has had a
Speaker 1: track record of peace is because of his holiness, the
Speaker 1: true callous of Islam. He's a spiritual callous. He advocates
Speaker 1: for separation of mosque and state gender equity. He commands
Speaker 1: us to fight and defend just like let me bring
Speaker 1: me in here. And just like one General ALCSI of
Speaker 1: of Egypt spoke out against radical Islamis. It was it
Speaker 1: was a risky and he may ultimately one to even
Speaker 1: lose his life over it. Yeah, no, I I agree.
Speaker 1: I mean I took a lot of courage from to
Speaker 1: speak out and and talk about what he saw as
Speaker 1: the internal problems of religion. And I think there's no
Speaker 1: question that there are internal problems, but there are there
Speaker 1: are people who are trying to fight against that, who
Speaker 1: are trying to push against this tidal wave of radicalization
Speaker 1: which is kind of which is beginning to really engulf
Speaker 1: a lot of Islam, not all of it obviously, right,
Speaker 1: I think that when but it is the it is
Speaker 1: the number one clear and present danger of the world
Speaker 1: because we see radical Islamic terrorism all around the world
Speaker 1: now it is, and we see Isis and we see
Speaker 1: al Qaeda, and we see the Muslim Brotherhood, and we
Speaker 1: see his Ballad, and we see Hamas and we see
Speaker 1: you know, all of these different you know, offshoots, and
Speaker 1: they have declared war against us as evidence in the
Speaker 1: United States and all throughout Europe, all the different attacks
Speaker 1: that have taken place. You know, like to keep mind
Speaker 1: that really the number one export of the Saudi country
Speaker 1: is not necessarily oil, but really radicalism. If you look
Speaker 1: at around the world, the amount of money they're putting
Speaker 1: toward building out uh mosques that are preaching radicalism. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's very scary. And I think and by
Speaker 1: the way, you make that point about about terrorism and
Speaker 1: the fact that there have been no attacks right by
Speaker 1: anybody from these seven countries? Do we not forget that?
Speaker 1: Just last year, last year there were two attacks from
Speaker 1: two Somali immigrants, one in Ohio State and one at
Speaker 1: we have we've forgotten about that. I'm not sure what
Speaker 1: how's that forgot in the calculation. I've gone through all
Speaker 1: of these in Sudens, you know, and there are sixteen
Speaker 1: countries where if you're Jewish or have a Jewish passport,
Speaker 1: there are Muslim majority countries that you can't get in.
Speaker 1: Of course, So you know, you talk about extreme vetting
Speaker 1: or a religious litmus test or is a Jewish band?
Speaker 1: That's that's real. But I want to ask uh, Mr Shed,
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this. Yeah, I think this
Speaker 1: is important. So Donald Trump wants to protect the country
Speaker 1: these seven countries. You know, we have all the Indonesia, Egypt,
Speaker 1: Jordan's even Saudi Arabia, which I think should be included
Speaker 1: on the list. You know, all these seven countries, we
Speaker 1: know our hotbeds for terrorism and terrorism training. So he
Speaker 1: wants to have extreme vetting to make sure and put
Speaker 1: the priority of the safety of the American people first.
Speaker 1: Do you have a problem with that. I don't think
Speaker 1: anyone is arguing with safety for the country. I think
Speaker 1: the question is do we do it in a way
Speaker 1: that our judiciary says as constitutional? Are we gonna go rogue?
Speaker 1: And I think we can agree that the judiciary decide
Speaker 1: was constitutional or not. Yeah, I don't think. I don't
Speaker 1: think you can consider the Ninth Circuit mainstream judiciary in America,
Speaker 1: especially when they have about an eight percent overturn rate
Speaker 1: at the US it's still yeah. Well, but but in
Speaker 1: all honesty, I mean they went they went judge shopping
Speaker 1: here and the judge they went to this particular court
Speaker 1: in in Seattle, knowing that it would probably go to
Speaker 1: the Ninth Circuit, which probably would lean radically left, as
Speaker 1: they always do. But the reality is when did when
Speaker 1: did people that want to visit our country get constitutional rights?
Speaker 1: When did they gather them? I mean, that's there's an
Speaker 1: excellent law view article in Georgetown Law that UH sites
Speaker 1: of Supreme Court on numerous occasions that whether someone is
Speaker 1: a documented or undocumented immigrant, UH, they have the privileges
Speaker 1: of a citizen by virtue of being on US soil.
Speaker 1: And when we come back, I'll read you the law.
Speaker 1: Because the president does have the authority number one as
Speaker 1: commander in chief, and number two the statutory authority, which
Speaker 1: is US Code eleven eighty eight U S. Codal of
Speaker 1: an eight two paragraph half of your entitled to go.
Speaker 1: So we go look at it right as we continue
Speaker 1: our discussion about, of course, the president and whether or
Speaker 1: not extreme vetting is necessary. Let me read to both
Speaker 1: of you, Amy and Mr Rashid is uh the law
Speaker 1: which says this is two. Whenever the President finds that
Speaker 1: the entry of any aliens or any class of aliens
Speaker 1: into the United States would be detrimental to the interests
Speaker 1: of the United States, he may, by proclamation and for
Speaker 1: such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry
Speaker 1: of aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or
Speaker 1: non immigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any
Speaker 1: restrictions he may deem appropriate. I mean the law seems
Speaker 1: pretty clear to me. Yeah, that that is really a
Speaker 1: vague writing of a law. I don't understand what that
Speaker 1: even means. No, but like you said, it doesn't matter
Speaker 1: what the black and white is. You have a an
Speaker 1: activist Chord in the Ninth Circuit who was looking too
Speaker 1: over that there was the political move doesn't matter with
Speaker 1: the laws. They were looking to find a way to
Speaker 1: overturn it. They found a way which it's clearly would
Speaker 1: be overturned if we had a Supreme Court which wasn't
Speaker 1: four to four, so clearly split between partisan lines. I
Speaker 1: think ultimately he's going to be write the law, He's
Speaker 1: gonna narrow it, and it will essentially pass well in
Speaker 1: the law, same clarity. And by the way, I think
Speaker 1: we should remind people, you actually work with refugees. You
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a cel RESC attorney. I broke out
Speaker 1: side and refugees constantly and know that law of course
Speaker 1: has to be interpreted by the US Supreme Court and
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. Okay, but there's no ambiguity when you
Speaker 1: heard what I read, right well, But my point is
Speaker 1: that whatever the meaning of that with those words are
Speaker 1: still dependent on what the Supreme Court says. I think
Speaker 1: we can agree on that, right all right, But there's
Speaker 1: no there's no ambiguity in the reading of that law.
Speaker 1: You could be a ninth grader or an eighth grader
Speaker 1: and figure out what it's meaning and intent are. But
Speaker 1: hang on, hang on, hang on, Imy, you had the
Speaker 1: experience you actually infiltrated, if you will, the refugee population
Speaker 1: to all about the Yeah. So when I was in Turkey,
Speaker 1: I spend time with the Syrian refugees there. I actually
Speaker 1: saw witness Isis recruiting Syrian refugees in is Mere, Turkey.
Speaker 1: And then I ultimately I went on that that pleasure
Speaker 1: cruise on the raft with them over to Germany and
Speaker 1: spend time with them in Germany. And I want to
Speaker 1: spend a second really on the vetting process, the great
Speaker 1: vetting process that they've been talking about, how the extreme
Speaker 1: vetting of the abadministration. And you know, most people, I
Speaker 1: haven't heard anybody talking about what this process actually is.
Speaker 1: It is an absolute joke. The process is. It begins
Speaker 1: with the u N which picking out who they want
Speaker 1: to come to the United States, which disqualifies into my
Speaker 1: mind at the beginning. Then they have a wellness check
Speaker 1: where they find out they have herpes or not, and
Speaker 1: then they asked them a series of questions are you
Speaker 1: a terrorist? For instance? Do you want to blow up America?
Speaker 1: And then comes the coup de gras, the vetting process.
Speaker 1: They then ping their names off of five different databases
Speaker 1: to find their names hit. In other words, if we
Speaker 1: don't know who they were beforehand, that's the only way
Speaker 1: we find out their terrorists, if they are raut galized,
Speaker 1: and Syria during the war, the radicalized, the refugee camps
Speaker 1: after the war, none of that is involved in this
Speaker 1: extreme vetting at the U. S has and every single
Speaker 1: solitary national security top intelligence official in this country said,
Speaker 1: and as has now the President Assad of Syria himself,
Speaker 1: that the refugee population will be infiltrated by terrorism. Sean,
Speaker 1: let me respond to that as well. You know, his holiness,
Speaker 1: the Sleep of Islam several years ago said absolutely iss
Speaker 1: is going to try to influction refugees, and we need
Speaker 1: to have a thorough vetting process. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: But I think what immy is doing is plenty mischaracterizing.
Speaker 1: And I worked these refugees. I've gone through these interviews.
Speaker 1: There's a reason why our intelligence agencies have protected us
Speaker 1: and not a single terrorist has gotten through in forty years.
Speaker 1: I think we should I thought that's not true. I
Speaker 1: just simply not true. I just told you. A review
Speaker 1: compiled by the US Senate and sen revealed that seventy
Speaker 1: two individuals from those seven countries covered by the presidents
Speaker 1: the Sati No, I mean, I read that report, but
Speaker 1: with all due respect, it is not They're all convictions
Speaker 1: of real people. I don't know what you're talking about,
Speaker 1: but I gotta run. I wish I had more time.
Speaker 1: Eight hundred nine for one, sewn toll free telephone number.
Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. All right, when we
Speaker 1: come back, we'll hit the phones toll free, our telephone
Speaker 1: numbers eight hundred nine for one, Shawn, if you want
Speaker 1: to join us, we'll take a quick break, we'll come
Speaker 1: back and we will continue straight ahead, Mold inspired solutions
Speaker 1: for America. This is the Sean Show till the top
Speaker 1: of the one Sean. If you want to be a
Speaker 1: part of the program, Uh, we will be interviewing. Uh well,
Speaker 1: I probably shouldn't give it away yet. We're gonna be
Speaker 1: back in Washington this week with a really big interview
Speaker 1: that we're really excited about. And it is as relevant
Speaker 1: is anything that we have ever done before. All Right,
Speaker 1: in the meantime, I promise we'll get to the phones.
Speaker 1: We will do that and say hi to Mike. Is
Speaker 1: somewhere in New York State that says, where are you
Speaker 1: in New York? State. Hey John, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 1: I'm a college student in UM Upstate, New York. I
Speaker 1: go to a small private university, about three thousand students.
Speaker 1: My school's a an engineering school for the most part.
Speaker 1: We have a smaller business school. But UM usually it's
Speaker 1: not too political. But I guess because of the election
Speaker 1: last summer, it's completely changed. And I'm a senior in
Speaker 1: my fourth year here, and all of a sudden, I've
Speaker 1: noticed these these drastic changes around campus. UM we have
Speaker 1: safe spaces on campus. Now all of a sudden, we
Speaker 1: have bathrooms for everyone that used to be men's bathrooms
Speaker 1: of women's bathrooms in certain buildings. The bathrooms have become
Speaker 1: for everybody, so anybody could use UM the bathrooms. But
Speaker 1: I guess the thing that bothered me the most is, uh,
Speaker 1: right after the election, we have I'm a part of
Speaker 1: the club on campus. It's called the College Republican Club.
Speaker 1: We have well over eighty members. And right after election,
Speaker 1: it was either some one of the high UM high
Speaker 1: ranking faculty on campus or the president of the university
Speaker 1: sent our advisor to us at our meeting to tell
Speaker 1: us that just because our guy won, meeting President Trump,
Speaker 1: that we weren't allowed to be hateful or bigoted, assuming
Speaker 1: he was assuming that that's the kind of people that
Speaker 1: we are because we were conservative, which really earthed us.
Speaker 1: Um and I guess he also The president of the
Speaker 1: university has also gone so far as to President Trump
Speaker 1: put out his executive order two weeks ago. Let me
Speaker 1: guess they called it a Muslim ban and a religious
Speaker 1: litmus test. Then they lied to the students. I'm just guessing, yeah,
Speaker 1: pretty much. He sent in an email. I have a
Speaker 1: I have it written down a quote from it. Um,
Speaker 1: what say the President Trump's executive order banning entry of
Speaker 1: citizens from various countries is in direct opposition to our history,
Speaker 1: our principles, and even our ability to continue to drive
Speaker 1: the national Number One, they're not citizens. Their guests in
Speaker 1: our country. Number Two. When I go abroad, I get vetted.
Speaker 1: Number three. You know, I mean it's I we don't
Speaker 1: mind people visiting, but if you're coming from a country
Speaker 1: that is known to be a safe harbor for terrorists
Speaker 1: and and a known terrorist training facility, or there's a
Speaker 1: lot of terrorist training going on in the country, then
Speaker 1: we have every right to put the safety and security
Speaker 1: above the visitors. Inconvenience, and that's all this comes down to. Inconvenience,
Speaker 1: And if you're a terrorist, the inconveniences you're not getting in.
Speaker 1: If your person that comes with good intentions, and we
Speaker 1: can ascertain that, then America is opening its doors to you.
Speaker 1: So it's it's been blown. Here's my here's what I
Speaker 1: advise you to do, because you're describing my entire life
Speaker 1: where I have been despised, hated, mischaracterized. Every single possible
Speaker 1: evil thing that could ever be written about a person
Speaker 1: I think has been written about me at some point
Speaker 1: or another. And you know what, I'm just very relaxed
Speaker 1: and comfortable in my own skin, and I don't care
Speaker 1: about criticism. I'm not going to live my life caring
Speaker 1: what people think about me. You know. I there are
Speaker 1: certain people in my my life who's whose opinions of
Speaker 1: me matter a lot more than others. And short of that,
Speaker 1: I don't care that, you know, a bunch of liberals
Speaker 1: hate my guts. I really don't. I'm not gonna spend
Speaker 1: my life agonizing over it. It's life A is too
Speaker 1: short and be I'm confident in my studied positions about
Speaker 1: how conservatism works and how vetting is your simple, basic,
Speaker 1: fundamental common sense. And if you know, if I'm bored,
Speaker 1: I might take to Twitter and and have some fun
Speaker 1: and spank them around a little bit if they need it.
Speaker 1: All right, best of luck, Mike, stand on your principles.
Speaker 1: You'll never regret it. Chris is in Utah, rod or
Speaker 1: Ketland k n rs. What's going on? Chris? How are you?
Speaker 1: How's things in Utah? Mr? Hannity? Thank you for your time, sir.
Speaker 1: Thanks for let me call in, sir. Um. I was
Speaker 1: at the Jason chafe Its town hall meeting last Thursday. Um.
Speaker 1: I was on the second row. Um. I'm an Obama.
Speaker 1: Obama voter in two dozen and eight and I voted
Speaker 1: for Trump in two thousand and sixteen. I went there
Speaker 1: to kind of learn. But what I learned was while
Speaker 1: I was in line, they were bringing in all these
Speaker 1: Democratic voters and activists and they were handing out signs
Speaker 1: and agree and disagree, and they were handing them out
Speaker 1: the questions. And as I went in and sat down
Speaker 1: and I got on the second row, I interacted with
Speaker 1: everybody and was very benign, and they didn't know who
Speaker 1: I was. And I saw them actually standing in front
Speaker 1: and moving us all together, getting more people in there.
Speaker 1: And then when Mr Chafis came out and Congressman shape
Speaker 1: It's I won't get into it. I posted on Facebook.
Speaker 1: I'm not a very political person, but it changed my life.
Speaker 1: If you look at the fifty nine minute mark on
Speaker 1: the YouTube, on the video of the chafe Its town hall,
Speaker 1: I got a chance to ask my question. The only
Speaker 1: reason I did was because I was aggressive and they
Speaker 1: were trying to stop me from asking. And I told
Speaker 1: the crowd and God and everyone that I'm a Trump voter,
Speaker 1: a chafe It's supporter, and Obama supporter. And I looked
Speaker 1: at the crowd and said, your anger is what probably
Speaker 1: everyone felt in two thousand twelve, and I asked what
Speaker 1: can we come to to do to come together? I
Speaker 1: was yelled at, shouted down. As I sat down, I
Speaker 1: was cursed at. I was told I should probably leave
Speaker 1: because someone might come after me. The Brighton School student
Speaker 1: body counsel was on the front row, and no one's
Speaker 1: talking about this. These kids heard the most vulgar, nasty
Speaker 1: things that they probably ever heard in their lives. I
Speaker 1: left and went outside because I was actually scared, and
Speaker 1: I walked out to the group of protesters who were
Speaker 1: screaming bring him out, bring him out, as if he
Speaker 1: was some criminal. What they want to do, what they
Speaker 1: want to do, beat him up. And that's what I
Speaker 1: didn't know, Mrs Kennedy, is that I'm just a regular person.
Speaker 1: I thought, and I just went there and and um,
Speaker 1: and I'll be honest with you, I switched. I was
Speaker 1: always independent. I switched my party affiliation to Republican to
Speaker 1: vote for Ted Cruz during the primary. I struggle was
Speaker 1: voting for Mr. Trump. But the Washington Post reporter asked
Speaker 1: me a very great question, he said afterwards, because he's like,
Speaker 1: I can't believe you did that in front of everybody,
Speaker 1: And I said, I wanted to show the difference between
Speaker 1: us and them. I asked a very loving, kind question
Speaker 1: and was rejected and cursed at and and he said, um, well,
Speaker 1: what do you think of the job Mr Trump's doing?
Speaker 1: And I said, it's been two or three weeks. How
Speaker 1: can we judge him? I actually think, I actually think
Speaker 1: it's been a pretty phenomenal period of time. I won't
Speaker 1: go through the list of accomplishments again because I don't
Speaker 1: want to repeat myself, but I think it's been great. Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm just gonna tell you this. A lot of
Speaker 1: this is what we call AstroTurf, and these organizers, some
Speaker 1: of them are paid to be there. It's this is
Speaker 1: now what you're going to see the entire four to
Speaker 1: eight years of a Trump presidency. It's not going to
Speaker 1: go away. I talked to friends of mine that do
Speaker 1: work in the White House. I said, it's not going away.
Speaker 1: You just you just accepted for what it is and
Speaker 1: do the job you were hired to do and forget
Speaker 1: the noise, because this is all noise. And if if
Speaker 1: people want to disrupt a town hall with a congressman
Speaker 1: or a senator that is graciously try to reach out
Speaker 1: and serve as constituents, well that means the people that
Speaker 1: really deserve the service don't get what what we hired
Speaker 1: these people for. And it's selfish, self centered. You're right,
Speaker 1: they don't care about their language, they don't care the
Speaker 1: kids are there. You know, It's it's just typical. I've
Speaker 1: seen this my entire life. Especially the left is not
Speaker 1: the most tolerant. The left does not really believe in
Speaker 1: diversity because they don't like or can't stand a conservative
Speaker 1: and God forbid if you're a woman in a conservative
Speaker 1: and pro life, and god forbid of you're a black
Speaker 1: American and your conservative. Oh my god, that's like, you know,
Speaker 1: look at all the names that Tim Scott was called
Speaker 1: and he read on the Senate floor last week. It's
Speaker 1: it's pretty brutal. They're vicious, their mean, they're cruel, and
Speaker 1: we have to just move We we have a job
Speaker 1: to do and that saved the country and in the meantime,
Speaker 1: stop it's precipitous decline. Get America on the right track.
Speaker 1: At our economy on the right track, get our security
Speaker 1: on the right track, get healthcare on the right track,
Speaker 1: get the Supreme Court back on track, get to energy independence.
Speaker 1: These are the big problems we've got to focus on. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I appreciate Chris, let not your heart be trouble. I
Speaker 1: know it's frustrating. The best thing you could probably do
Speaker 1: is call his office and see if you can't get
Speaker 1: a question answered the way you want. I would assume
Speaker 1: Jason Chaffitz would would be glad to respond. All right,
Speaker 1: let's get to our phones. Let us say hi to
Speaker 1: Jonathan and Henderson Texas. Jonathan, Hi, how are you glad
Speaker 1: you called thank you, sir, appreciate taking me. Um, I
Speaker 1: would just like to say, well, first off, I'm a
Speaker 1: I'm a thirty seven year old rooting contractor in Texas,
Speaker 1: and I'm very glad that we finally have a president
Speaker 1: that works as hard as the people do. Um. But
Speaker 1: what I was wanting to comment on was last week
Speaker 1: whenever Gorset's made that comment about basically criticism Trump for
Speaker 1: giving his opinion on something, it was disconcerting if it's true.
Speaker 1: Now he denies it was said. He denies that it
Speaker 1: was reported accurately. But I mean, look, we have a
Speaker 1: right to free speech. We can criticize the judiciary. They're
Speaker 1: not above criticism. As a matter of fact, the Ninth
Speaker 1: Circuit deserves it right exactly. That's what I was wanting
Speaker 1: to say. You know, since when the judge thought of
Speaker 1: to be thought of it beyond reproach or you know, somebody,
Speaker 1: they cannot make a mistake. You know, if if somebody
Speaker 1: like Ashley Judd can stand up there and say the
Speaker 1: filthiness that she said the other day, I mean she
Speaker 1: embarrassed the whole country with what she said. No, you
Speaker 1: know what she did, she heard her own cause because
Speaker 1: Americ The American people are I am a nast woman.
Speaker 1: It's just it's an embarrassment, or Madonna an embarrassment, or
Speaker 1: Meryl Streep an embarrassment, or Ashton Putcher an embarrassment. It's
Speaker 1: just these people are are ignorant, they don't know much,
Speaker 1: and they're all a bunch of phony hypocrites. Yeah, and she,
Speaker 1: you know, talking like that on there. You know, the
Speaker 1: left will always claim free speech, which they should. I mean,
Speaker 1: we do have free speeches America, and manet applies also
Speaker 1: to the President of all people. He has a right
Speaker 1: to free speech also, And you know what, they want
Speaker 1: to shut down his Twitter, and maybe it would be
Speaker 1: in his best interest to do so. I actually have
Speaker 1: come around on it. I actually think the fact that
Speaker 1: he I like people that are courageous and fight and
Speaker 1: speak their mind. And the President is going right to
Speaker 1: the American people, and I kind of like it. I
Speaker 1: think it's a good thing that he goes directly to us.
Speaker 1: And the media is in a total meltdown, freak out mode.
Speaker 1: And I was watching CNN briefly this weekend, and I
Speaker 1: just I watched for five minutes, and they were questioning
Speaker 1: the president's mental health, you know. And I'm like, this
Speaker 1: is beyond silly. And then Chris Ruddy was on and
Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, if he's uh crazy, he's crazy like
Speaker 1: a fox. He won the presidency. Like yeah, good point.
Speaker 1: Look I know Donald Trump. Donald Trump is a guy
Speaker 1: that rolls asleeps up. And he he said to me
Speaker 1: privately and on the air, I gotta do a good
Speaker 1: job for the American people. And I think that's why
Speaker 1: he's moving as expeditiously as possible. I called the speed
Speaker 1: of Trump. I'm telling Republicans in Washington to get their
Speaker 1: ass in gear and start working like everyone else in
Speaker 1: this country works, and roll up their sleeves and stop
Speaker 1: with the lunches and the workouts and the and the
Speaker 1: cafeteria dining that we pay for, and and start writing
Speaker 1: the bills on the promises that you made to the
Speaker 1: American people. And I'm frankly a little disgusted that you
Speaker 1: guys don't have a replacement bill ready to go after
Speaker 1: eight years, a consensus replacement bill, and that's so much
Speaker 1: work has to be done on it. It makes me think,
Speaker 1: what have you been doing? You voted all these times
Speaker 1: to repeal and replace, but what were you going to
Speaker 1: replace it with it's it's beyond frustrating anyway, I appreciate it, Jonathan,
Speaker 1: totally get it, understand and you can go back Thomas
Speaker 1: Jefferson for crying out loud Marbury Madison critical of judges.
Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson himself the author of our declaration critical of judges,
Speaker 1: as were many other presidents before. Barack Obama was so
Speaker 1: insulting to the Supreme Court that he insulted them right
Speaker 1: in front of them. Member, you were reading the lips
Speaker 1: of uh sam Alito, not true, not true, and didn't
Speaker 1: stop the President and then Justice Scalia and Justice Thomas said,
Speaker 1: that's the last State of the Union we're going to.
Speaker 1: I would assume when the President speaks, I think it's ony.
Speaker 1: It's not officially a state of the Union of a
Speaker 1: joint Session of Congress. I would assume that Clarence Thomas
Speaker 1: is gonna be there, and that all the justices will
Speaker 1: be there. We have a lot of work to do
Speaker 1: in this country. Look, it's this is not easy to
Speaker 1: fix the problems that we have inherited here. And I'm
Speaker 1: not spending a lot of time. I've given that to
Speaker 1: you all last year. How bad it is now. I'm
Speaker 1: very solutions oriented because I want the country to get fixed.
Speaker 1: I want to make sure that the country I want him.
Speaker 1: This is what I want for my country right now.
Speaker 1: I want I want the country safe and secure from
Speaker 1: radical Islamis. I want border secured, I want vetting in place.
Speaker 1: I want to understand. I want a president that understands
Speaker 1: that we have a group of people that are war
Speaker 1: with us. Then at simultaneously, and all these millions and
Speaker 1: millions of Americans in poverty, on food stamps, out of
Speaker 1: the labor force, that can't buy a home and have
Speaker 1: the American dream. I want to fix the economy so
Speaker 1: everyone not only gets a good job, but a career
Speaker 1: job that will make their lives better and more prosperous.
Speaker 1: And I want them to live in safe neighborhoods where
Speaker 1: their kids can play out, but they can go out
Speaker 1: in their backyards, they can play football in the street,
Speaker 1: you know, move aside when the cars come by, and
Speaker 1: not have the fear that so many people in so
Speaker 1: many cities and communities have right now. And that's what
Speaker 1: that's that's my goal. It's not personality driven as much
Speaker 1: as it's driven by my knowledge that conservatism works. Eight
Speaker 1: years of radical a Lynskyite, you know, leftism of Obama
Speaker 1: and Hillary didn't work. It hurt us on the national
Speaker 1: security front, and it hurt us on the economic front.
Speaker 1: A daily heat seeking missile of information that you won't
Speaker 1: get anywhere else. Santy's on No.
