1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: All right, our two Sean Hannity Show. Thanks for being

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: one of us eight hundred and nine for one, Sean,

3
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program. Let

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: me go back to this exchange. Peter Doocey, Fox News,

5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: Jen Saki. Jen Saki is saying it's irresponsible to say

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: that Americans are stranded, that they are not. Now, I

7
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: went over in great specificity and great details, every State

8
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: Department memo that is being sent to Americans caught behind

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: enemy lines. You might want to make you a way

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: to the airport, but we cannot guarantee your safety. And

11
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: then don't go to the airport. Now that was Saturday,

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: that's what they said. Then you go through everything that

13
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: was said over the weekend. Pentagon spokesman John Kirby al

14
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: Qaida and isis yeah, they have a presence in Afghanistan. Kirby,

15
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: admitting that people are being beaten some on the way

16
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: to the Afghanistan airport, wouldn't answer the Taliban very clearly,

17
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: telling Sky News that in fact, that deadline is hard

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 1: of August at thirty first. I don't have an exact

19
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: inventory of the equipment seized by the Taliban, but it's

20
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: estimated into billions, apparently including black Hall helicopters. We believe

21
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: we have evacuated several thousand Americans. No, we don't have

22
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: any idea how many Americans are actually there. We're not sure.

23
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: You know. Then General Hank Tail are unaware of Cobbal

24
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: embassy warning about threats outside the airport. That's the daily memo.

25
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: We can't guarantee your safety. Oh and Saturday, you better

26
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: not go today. Jake Sullivan at National Security Advisor, We

27
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: can't give you the precise number of Americans in Afghanistan.

28
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: Then Sullivan says, isis threat at Kabbal Airport is real?

29
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: Then Sullivan says, we're communicating with the Taliban through military channels. Okay,

30
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: communicating with the Taliban, the terrorist organization, and Americans are

31
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: trap behind enemy lines and they've got control of the

32
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: perimeter or the airport. Yeah, that now makes them ostensibly

33
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: hostages to the whims of a terrorist organization. You just

34
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: can't make up how bad this is, or our Defense

35
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: secretary saying yeah, there are incidents of people having tough

36
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: encounters with the Taliban while trying to get to the airport,

37
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: contradicting other parts of the administration. Nobody predicted the Afghan

38
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: government collapse in eleven days. It wasn't eleven days. They

39
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: were on the march for months. And then you have

40
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: the spokesman of the Taliban, Suhil Shaheen on sky News.

41
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: If the evacuation deadline extends past August the thirty first,

42
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: it's a problem, It will provoke a reaction. Then, of

43
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: course you've got Tony Blincoln admitting the Taliban is in

44
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: control of Kabbal and then admitting that there's no clear

45
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: plan in place to rescue Americans from Afghanistan. You can't

46
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: make it up. Here's the exchange with Ducie and Jen Saki.

47
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: The President have a sense that most of the criticism

48
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: is not of leaving Afghanistan, it's the way that he

49
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: has ordered it to happen, by pulling the troops before

50
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: getting these Americans who are now stranded. Does he have

51
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: a sense of that. First of all, I think it's

52
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: irresponsible to say Americans are stranded. They are not. We

53
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: are committed to bringing Americans who want to come home home.

54
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: We are in touch with them via phone, via text,

55
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 1: via email, any way that we can possibly reach Americans

56
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: to get them home if they want to return home.

57
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: Are no American stranded? Is the White House's official position

58
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: on what's happening in Afghanistan. I'm just calling you out

59
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: first thing, that we are stranding Americans in Afghanistan. When

60
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: I said, when we have been very clear that we

61
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 1: are not leaving Americans who want to return home. We

62
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: are going to bring them home. And I think that's

63
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: important for the American public to hear and understand. Well,

64
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: that's not what Joe Biden said on Friday. He said,

65
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: I can't guarantee the outcome. Joe Biden said that we're

66
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: any America are going to wants to gm home, can

67
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: come home, but I can guarantee the outcome. Now we're

68
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: getting lectures from French President mccron, who's telling Biden apparently

69
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: told Biden in a phone call that there is a

70
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: collective more responsibility to evacuate Afghani allies. I've been telling

71
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: you everything that's going on on the ground there. Told

72
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: you about the firefight erupting at Kabbal Airport today. We

73
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: told you the Taliban warning of dire consequences if they

74
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: try and extend the evacuation deadline, if they seek additional time,

75
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: the Taliban spokesman the US or UK seeks additional time

76
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: to continue evacuations. The answer is no, according to the

77
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: UK Independent, or there would be consequences. If they are

78
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: intent on continuing the occupation, it will provoke a reaction.

79
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: The answer is no, and yet they can identify every

80
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: American that's there. US embassy apparently overruled Biden, telling Americans

81
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: on Saturday not to travel to the airport despite his advice.

82
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: We have the Taliban reports now that they are burning women.

83
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: UK Daily Mail. Women are being burned to death, forced

84
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: to marry Taliban fighters also shipped overseas and coffins as

85
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: sex slaves. Just the latest in the horror of the

86
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: Taliban and their previous rule that we've chronicled extensively. One

87
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: woman set a flame by Taliban fighters because they didn't

88
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: like the food that they forced hard to cook for them.

89
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: Taliban is now filming their executions of Afghanis that were

90
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 1: allied with the US. A horrifying video has emerged online

91
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: that appears to show in the UK Sun the Taliban

92
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: is brutally executing a police chief. I mean it just

93
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: it just breaks your heart. Defense Secretary Austin confirming fleeing

94
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Americans are being beaten by the Taliban fighters. You know,

95
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: it's this whole team needs to go. Have been so

96
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: wrong and so incompetent on so many levels, we annoyed

97
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: do this was going to happen. It was happening before

98
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: your very eyes, if you just open them. You have

99
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: Afghan resistance fighters, you know, trying to fight back in

100
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,119
Speaker 1: the north, but they're not doing well. Should I keep going?

101
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: Joining us to this, Congressman Jim Banks of Indiana to

102
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: react to all of this? How can they possibly not

103
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: know how many Americans are there? How could they possibly

104
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: have not seen this coming when the Taliban had been

105
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 1: working their way, you know, through the entire country, taking

106
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: larger and larger areas extremely quickly. They had they had

107
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: weeks notice to prepare for this, and they should have

108
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: expedited the evacuation efforts. Destroyed our military equipment, not left

109
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,919
Speaker 1: it there or try to take at home would have

110
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 1: been the better solution. But you know, how do we

111
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: find ourselves in this situation? And how do you describe it?

112
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: Sir well Sean, Either either this administration is completely incompetent

113
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 1: or every step of the way they've been lying to US.

114
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: This administration, after all, is the big lie presidency of

115
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: a president who we all know is incapable of leading

116
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: as our commander in chief, and now every step of

117
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: the way we're seeing that to be true. Now you

118
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: might know, I served in Afghanistan just prior to being

119
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: elected to Congress and now serve on the Armed Services Committee,

120
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: have been back to Afghanistan as a member of Congress.

121
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: All of this was predictable, It was all preventable, we

122
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: know that. But by closing down the Bogram Airbase, which

123
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time at in uniform, we

124
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: completely destroyed our chances of evacuating Americans and evacuating all

125
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: of the billions of dollars of equipment that's now fallen

126
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: into the hands of the Taliban. These generals knew that

127
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: would happen, and now they're lying to cover up their negligence,

128
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: their role and responsibility allowing all of that to happen

129
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: to begin with. So all across the all along the way,

130
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: I mean, we're just finding out how incapable and competent

131
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: this administration is. But the fact that they're allan to

132
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: US Sean, they need to be held responsible for it,

133
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: all right, So now if we haven't identified today is

134
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: the twenty third Okay, that gives us eight full days

135
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: to evacuate every American and hopefully every No. We did

136
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: promise those that allied with us that have this time

137
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: this day ever happened, not necessarily we bring them to America,

138
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: but we get them the hell out of there. Now.

139
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: I think that part of the promise needs to be kept.

140
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: We promised people. Now, all these reports that Talimana going

141
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 1: door to door identifying anybody, and apparently they may even

142
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: have a computer list that assisted the US and allied

143
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: forces in the war over the last twenty years, all

144
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: of those people are marked for death, horrific death. How

145
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: we possibly if we can't identify Americans there, we can't

146
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: get them safely to the airport. We've got an eight

147
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: day deadline. What do we do now, Well, we know

148
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: that the administration has supposedly flown. They say about seventeen

149
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: thousand people out of Afghanistan. Only about twenty five hundred

150
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: of them actually though, are Americans, and they're they're telling

151
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: us that they're they're telling members of Congress that they're

152
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: prioritizing Americans. But we know that's not We know that

153
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: that is not the case. That again another lie by

154
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: this administration, is still in estimated fifteen thousand Americans who

155
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: are in Afghanistan. You heard Jensaki in the clip that

156
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: you played a little bit ago saying that anyone who

157
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: wants to get out can get out, but they can't

158
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: get to anywhere to get out. And that's the problem. Again.

159
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 1: When we seeded the Bagram air field, we gave up

160
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: a control of our only and best opportunity to fly

161
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: Americans out of the out of the country. The fact

162
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: that we're continuing to fly planeloads of Afghans out and

163
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: we still have Americans who are trapped in the country

164
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: who can't get to an airport tells you that this

165
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: administration is not prioritizing the Americans who want to get

166
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: out of the country. So that's one thing we're paying

167
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: close attention to in the briefings the members of Congress

168
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: are receiving today and tomorrow in demanding that the administration

169
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: give us a plan for how they're going to prioritize

170
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: Americans and get them out of the country. And now

171
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: now this latest new Sean that the Taliban is drawing

172
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: a red line is saying we got to be out

173
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: by August thirty first. I never thought I would see

174
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: a day when the Taliban are playing off of Ronald

175
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: Reagan's piece through strength, mantra, and strategy, and we're we're

176
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: on the on the other side, were the Biden administration

177
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: continues to play from a position of weakness and appeasement,

178
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 1: and you have the Taliban drawing red lines rather than

179
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: the United States of America. I never thought I would

180
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: see a day when that would come. The Taliban clearly

181
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: doesn't respect and they don't fear the United States of America,

182
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: the most powerful military in the world, because this commander

183
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,959
Speaker 1: in chief has completely failed and given them every reason.

184
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: We really don't have any good options that militarily, even

185
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: at this point, not knowing that they have control of

186
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 1: the country. And by the way, for people that may

187
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: not know, Congressman Banks currently serves as a US Navy

188
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: Reservant Supply Corps officer. You actually took a leave of

189
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: absence at the time from the Indiana States Senate to

190
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: deploy to Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom and Freedom's Sentinel.

191
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: And you know you're watching all this unfold. You know

192
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 1: this is personal for you, And I'm not sure exactly

193
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: what the best if there's any good option on the table,

194
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,599
Speaker 1: knowing what the Taliban is capable of doing with Americans

195
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: that are under their control ostensibly now trap behind enemy lines.

196
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: And I'm Sean, as you can imagine, hearing from many

197
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: of the Afghan troops that I served directly with when

198
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: I served there. I'm hearing from interpreters that I worked

199
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: with when I'm when I was Afghanistan really not that

200
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: long ago, twenty fourteen and fifteen. They fear for their lives.

201
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: They fear for the lives of their family members, because

202
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: now we know the Taliban has ended up with all

203
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: of the biometrics and information of everyone who ever served

204
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 1: to help us on the Afghan side. I mean, that's

205
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: how that's how chaotic and unbelievable. How is it possible

206
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: we left that information? How is it possible we left

207
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: billions of dollars in military equipment to arm them? And

208
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: the main question Biden's not answered, why do you trust

209
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: the Taliban? And I'm looking at the State Department spokesperson saying, well,

210
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: we're not trusting the Taliban, But in reality, that's what

211
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: Biden keeps saying that they've they've married certain commitments. I'm like,

212
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: so you really are trusting the Taliban and our fellow

213
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: Americans are behind enemy lines and ostensibly hostage to the

214
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: whims of the Taliban. There's no other way to describe

215
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: that accurately. It's unfathomable, I mean everything, that it would

216
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 1: come to this point where the Taliban now has more

217
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: black Hawk helicopters and eight of the UN countries. I mean,

218
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: think about that for a moment. They have many do

219
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: you do you know how many black Hawks they got.

220
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: We know that at this point the Taliban has forty

221
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: five Blackhawk helicopters and about fift these smaller choppers and

222
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: in additional fifty other aircraft that they have. But that's

223
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: not that's just the lease of I mean to think

224
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: of the again, this is what I directly did when

225
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: I was in Afghanistan, serving and assisting the Afghan Army

226
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: and helping them acquire American military equipment, to give that,

227
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: to give that to the Afghan army and the police

228
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: so they could fight against the Taliban. Taliban has weapons

229
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: and ammunition, night vision goggles, medical supplies. It's just unfathomable

230
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: that it could be parading it all over the place

231
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: and sticking it right in our faces as propaganda. But

232
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: it's not propaganda because it's real. Congressman Jim Banks, Indiana,

233
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: thank you. Our prayers are with our fellow Americans. We continue.

234
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: I had twenty five to the top of the hour.

235
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the President's speech on Saturday. Wow,

236
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how many thousands of people were there,

237
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 1: kens and ten and tens of thousand was massive. Anyway,

238
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: the President weighed in extensively on what's going on in

239
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: Afghanistan and basically said, yeah, it's a total surrender. Listen.

240
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: It did not have to happen that way. This is

241
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: not a withdrawal. This was a total surrender to surrender

242
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: for no reason. They weren't asking. We had them. I

243
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: dealt with Abdul, he was the leader. I said, Abdul,

244
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: anything happens, we are going to reign terror upon you.

245
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: It will be a terrible thing. Don't touch our American citizens,

246
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: don't ever come to our country. Don't ever come to

247
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 1: our country. And you're going to continue fighting your civil war.

248
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: I can't do that. They've been fighting it for hundreds

249
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: of years. That's what they do is they fight and

250
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: they're good fighters. But I had a good relationship other

251
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: than that one statement. I said. After I said that,

252
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: I said, now let's get down to busines. I said,

253
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: we had a conditions based agreement, and they didn't meet

254
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: the first two conditions, and we hit them hard, and

255
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: then they met him, and then they had a couple

256
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: of other conditions that they were ready to meet. And

257
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: then we had a rigged election and we had a

258
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: new president. And the new president came into office and

259
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: he dropped to his knees and he said, come on

260
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: in and take everything that we have. This is a

261
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: disgraceful thing, the most embarrassing thing that we've ever seen

262
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: in this country. There's never been an embarrassment and the

263
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: nations of the world. That was the president at Israeli

264
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: in Alabama. I mean, I couldn't believe. I saw Dance

265
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: Cavino at Dance Covino and in his Twitter account. I'm

266
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 1: spending less and less and less time on Twitter, Linda,

267
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: have you noticed now? We used to have so many

268
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: people that would you know, we tweeted out a comment

269
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: or I was involved in so many people support at

270
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: us on Twitter for a long time, all our supporters

271
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: are like gone. Now I send out a tweet, it's

272
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: like drop dead Hannity, go to hell hand. I mean,

273
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: it's like it's basically now a platform for left wing

274
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: lunatics and the blue checkmark cults, medium mob media mob

275
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: cult that's all over Twitter. It's like they basically have

276
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: servative away. Yeah, they have an algorithm, and the algorithm

277
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: is what is used to silence everyone that says anything

278
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: that dares to think on their own and not like,

279
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: you know, the group consciousness. I mean, it's it's complete absurdity. Okay,

280
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: it's like talking about bitcoin and the algorithm and why bitcoin. Oh,

281
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: I know, but that's what it is. I mean I

282
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: remember talking to add Jack and him saying that, oh

283
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: my algorithm, it got hijack. They do different things to it.

284
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: Now I'm like, dude, you're the president. Make it right.

285
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: Make sure that everybody's voice over it. I mean, I'll

286
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: leave the account up, but it's honestly a waste of

287
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: my time. They really the good thing is Sean, most

288
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: of those people they're just bots. They're just all the

289
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: same person using different screen handles and doing the same thing.

290
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: And by the way, for our information, you can always

291
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: go to Hannity dot com, which is you know, we're

292
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,360
Speaker 1: we're putting everything up there. Anything that shows up on

293
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: my Twitter account was first pushed on Hannity dot com anyway,

294
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: So that's the first source. And uh something we control

295
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: how many times a day and people try to hack

296
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: that site? Oh my god, forget about it. It's unbelievable.

297
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: Blair like gives me the the hack attempt updates. I'm like,

298
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: oh my god, let me tell you something. To Blair's credit,

299
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: I have no control over anything social media related ever.

300
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: It's crazy. But you know, he works really hard, and

301
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: we've never been we've we've they've never been successful. Let's

302
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: put it that way. Oh, knock on wood, because they're

303
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 1: pretty successful almost everywhere else, you know. Anyway, appreciate the update, Linda. Uh.

304
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 1: Tim is in New York. What's up? Tim? What are

305
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,679
Speaker 1: you doing New New York? You're paying too much taxes?

306
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: What are you out of your mind? I'm trying to

307
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: smarten up show. Thanks for taking my call. So mine.

308
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: What's going on, Budy? Well, this disaster in Afghanistan is

309
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: just completely disheartening, and to me, it seems that this

310
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 1: is just the latest in a long history of corruption

311
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 1: in the election of duty for many of our leaders,

312
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: and even when Republicans have taken the White House in

313
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: the legislature, we seem to have no avenue to hold

314
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 1: these guys accountable. And so my question is what needs

315
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: to happen for us to have that ability and how

316
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 1: do we get there? You know you're raising a good question.

317
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: The only answer that I have because I know a

318
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: lot of people would love to see Biden impeached, a

319
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: lot of I think most people, even the media now

320
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: they know, I mean, everybody knows that Joe Biden is

321
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 1: a cognitive mess. Everybody sees it. They just don't report it.

322
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: They just don't talk about it, nor do they even

323
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: criticize me for saying it anymore. And they're afraid too,

324
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 1: because they know that I have a very effective way

325
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,199
Speaker 1: of fighting back, and that is playing Joe in his

326
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: own words. So they know that it's it's not a

327
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: fight that they're gonna win, So they stay away from me.

328
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: They try to say, well, Hannity won't tell people what

329
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: to say to do with their health. No, I'm not

330
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: qualified too, I wish I was. Please take the virus seriously,

331
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: pretty please with sugar on top. I'm begging people. I've

332
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: seen the worst of this. I have. I've said, no

333
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 1: people on ventilators, No people that didn't survive ventilators. I

334
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: know the worst of it. But it's really I don't

335
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: know your medical history. I don't know your current medical condition.

336
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: Please talk to your doctor. You know, thirty percent of

337
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: LA cases breakthrough cases. The CDC acknowledging that the vaccine

338
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: will not prevent transmission of the virus, meaning you can

339
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 1: they have a lot of breakthrough cases. What do you

340
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 1: do then, Well, that's where I've urged you to talk

341
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: to your doctor about, you know, the different therapeutics that

342
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: are available for me, the best one that I see.

343
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: You know, I keep talking about regenera, but that's between

344
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 1: you and your doctor. Two. I'm not going to refuse

345
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: to do it. I'm not going to play doctor on TV.

346
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: But how do you get rid of corrupt politicians? You

347
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: vote them out. The first thing that needs to be

348
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:21,120
Speaker 1: done is voter integrity laws in every state. The things

349
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: that I've been repeating over and over again. You know,

350
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: I won't repeat him here, but that's the answer. And

351
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: I think I think that that's going to happen. I

352
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: can't guarantee anything, but it's important that we have election

353
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: integrity and confidence and results and that what you know,

354
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: the things the laws that were ignored in twenty twenty two,

355
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: like partisan observers. They ought to be able to watch

356
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: the vote counts start to finish, chain of custody control,

357
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: updated voter rolls, signature verification, voter ID. I have the

358
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,360
Speaker 1: Democrats been fighting hard to get rid of voter ID?

359
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 1: I don't know, because they don't seem to have a

360
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: problem with vaccine mandate I D. Why wouldn't they have

361
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 1: voter I D. Anyway, appreciate the call. Eight hundred and

362
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: nine four one, Sean, you want to be a part

363
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: of the program. Uh, Cindy is in Michigan. Cindy, you're

364
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 1: on the Sean Hannity Show. Glad you're checking in. What's

365
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: going on? Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call. Um.

366
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 1: You know I listened to your show. I before all

367
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: of this started, I pretty much was not into any politics,

368
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden, like Patriot channels, the

369
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,959
Speaker 1: only channel is on in my car, and when I

370
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 1: hear people call in, it's like everybody's so angry and

371
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: how do we not just complain and just try to

372
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 1: How How do you get people to listen to you?

373
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: I think people are getting it. You know, I wrote

374
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: I haven't written a book in ten years. Why did

375
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: I write this book? Live Free and Die? I don't

376
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 1: like to write books. Books so hard. It's hard work. Um.

377
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: I really like to focus and spend all of my

378
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 1: time and energy and focus on doing this radio show

379
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: on my TV show. But I found the time, made

380
00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 1: the time to do it because I felt it was

381
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: that important and I wanted everybody to know what was

382
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: at stake, as bad as I thought it would be,

383
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: and that's that motivated me to do it. Um, it's

384
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: now worse than I ever dreamed. I can't cite a

385
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: single success of the Biden administration, borders, COVID energy, foreign policy,

386
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: the economy, inflation. I can't. I can't cite a single

387
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: thing that has benefited I'm sorry, Well, I mean maybe

388
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: the people. And you know, I know you have all

389
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: these Rhino Republicans out there, and these groups like the

390
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: Lincoln Group and the Liz Cheneys of the world. Um,

391
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: you know I'd take a mean tweet over what the

392
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: hell's unfolding in Afghanistan. Any day, I take secure borders

393
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: and mean tweets over what's happened at our border. Any day,

394
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: I'd take energy independence, uh and a mean tweet over

395
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: you know what's happening today and we're begging Opec to

396
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: produce more oil. I choose the mean twe any day.

397
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I know people didn't like Donald Trump's style

398
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: some people. It never bothered me, and I think people

399
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: feigned outrage half the time and they weren't as outraged

400
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: as they acted. And if they should, if they are outraged,

401
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: it should be now because we have Americans caught behind

402
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: enemy lines and a Secretary of State admitting that the

403
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 1: Taliban controls Afghanistan and they can't guarantee our safety, the

404
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: safety of Americans. They're admitting it all they're saying it.

405
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 1: You know, blinket, the Taliban is in control of Cobble.

406
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 1: That's all you need to know about how bad this is. Well,

407
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: I was listening to something earlier and they were basically

408
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: saying that, you know, the people that wake up not woke.

409
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: There there'll be some that will wake up, but the

410
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: others we have to leave them behind. And I was

411
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: just like, wow, is that where we're at right now,

412
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, kind of isn't it sad? Yes, short answer is, yes,

413
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,959
Speaker 1: it's sad right now. I am like, you know, I

414
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: don't hear the anger that you seem to hear. I

415
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: hear people like gas at the policies, and that as

416
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: bad as many thought it could be, it's even worse.

417
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: And I think people are genuinely fear what's happening in

418
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: the country and the world as a consequence of having

419
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: a president, you know, this cognitively deficient and weak, and

420
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: a group of people that are radical, you know, new

421
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: Green Deal socialist around him that he's listening to. True

422
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 1: to that. But I'm a small business owner and we

423
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: see probably over six hundred people in my business a month,

424
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: and they're just not happy. I mean, and maybe it's that,

425
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: Maybe it's fear. People are just there, They're angry, they're

426
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 1: they're done, and I think people just feel helpless. I

427
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: think there is I think there's a certain amount of

428
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: urgency that everybody does need to feel. Fear is not

429
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: necessarily a bad thing. Fear of consequences can be a

430
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: good thing in life, you know. Fear is not necessarily

431
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: a horrible thing. Guilt you know, everyone thinks guilt is

432
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 1: a bad I don't think guilt is a bad thing

433
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: necessarily either, because it can change one's behavior and wait

434
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: people up to the reality of you know, bad choices

435
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: they're making. Right now, the country is on a really,

436
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: really bad path, and the only way that I see

437
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: to overcome it is get election integrity laws in every state.

438
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: It's important, and if your state is not working on it,

439
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: try and organize groups to pressure them to do the

440
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: right thing. Look a signature verification, voter ID, updated voter rolls,

441
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: chain of custody controls, and the partisan observers watching the

442
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 1: vote count is not controversial to me. It's something that

443
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: benefits both sides. It brings integrity to the system so

444
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 1: that you know, people will have faith in the outcome

445
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: of our elections. We've got to fix that. Why Democrats

446
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 1: don't want it only tells me that they have nefarious intentions.

447
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: And then short of that, you know, pressure even Democratic senators.

448
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: If you live in West Virginia, that would be Mansion, Arizona,

449
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: that would be Christian Cinema and anywhere else. Just you've

450
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 1: got to put pressure on them and let them know

451
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: they'll be consequences for their bad policies, and I think

452
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 1: that with that, I hope. So I'm watching all right, Yes, yes,

453
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: hang in there. You know, our hearts are troubled now,

454
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 1: but political winds shift very quickly, and I think they've

455
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 1: shifted already. Russell is in Florida. Russell, you're on the

456
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Glad you called. Hi. Sean. I am

457
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: a second generation American, fifty nine years old. I love

458
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: my country, I love my military, but I'm about to

459
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 1: make your head explode. I don't think any of this

460
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 1: could be laid on the hands of Biden. And the

461
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: reason is, Sean, have you ever been to Disney World,

462
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,120
Speaker 1: to the Hall of Presidents. I've been in Disney World.

463
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 1: I don't remember the Hall of Presidents. They have these

464
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: animatronic robots that are just mouthing all things. And when

465
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: I see Biden, that's what I see, except one with

466
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,959
Speaker 1: major hardware and software glitches. I mean, it's whoever's pulling

467
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,080
Speaker 1: Biden strings. But come on, this guy can't nap the

468
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: gate up the steps of Air Force one. He can't

469
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 1: get back from Marine one into the White House. Half

470
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: of the time, nobody can decode what he's saying, all

471
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,479
Speaker 1: they do is press the button, says, come on, man,

472
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Biden is not in it. This guy is

473
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: just so far removed. And to think that he's still

474
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: the commander in chief. If you're telling me that the

475
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: military should recognize that he's out to lunch and take control,

476
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: you know they're not going to do that. But with

477
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: that said, they have not served him well either, General Millie,

478
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: the National Security Advisor, Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense.

479
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: They've all failed miserably here. And I'm not sure it

480
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: was even an intelligence failure. I know for a fact

481
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: that the CIA got their people out seven weeks ago,

482
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: they saw what was coming. I've every belief that they

483
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: told the president how bad it is. I have every

484
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 1: belief that there were people, you know, in the military

485
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: that said to move forward now, and then I have

486
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 1: every belief that Biden didn't make the call when he

487
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: should have, when he could have, when it mattered. And

488
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, do I think it's a dereliction of duty

489
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: and a failure of you know, incalculable proportions. Yeah, I do.

490
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: This is not going to end well for a lot

491
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: of people. I hope we get every American out first,

492
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 1: but a lot of people are dying already according to reports.

493
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: This is not going to end well and they should

494
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: have prepared for this, they didn't, and it is going

495
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: to go down in history. Is one of the worst

496
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: foreign policy disasters ever that I can promise you will

497
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: continue
