Speaker 1: Our two Sean Hannity Show toll free on numbers eight
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety four one Sean, if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. We have a number
Speaker 1: of issues to go over with investigative reporter, our friend
Speaker 1: John Solomon. In just a second, we do have updates
Speaker 1: is reporting now we have the issue of Minnesota fraud.
Speaker 1: House Majority Whip Tom Emmer told Just the News on
Speaker 1: Tuesday that Minnesota state employees are providing evidence that could
Speaker 1: lead to the federal prosecution of Governor Tim Walls, offering
Speaker 1: sworn whistle blower testimony. This whistle blowers plural, confirming the
Speaker 1: Democratic governor failed to act after he was warned extensively
Speaker 1: about massive taxpayer fraud involving the state Somali immigrant population.
Speaker 1: Quote that my friend should be enough for criminal charges.
Speaker 1: The man needs should be in cuffs, Emmer said in
Speaker 1: a wide ranging interview with John Solomon and John Solomon
Speaker 1: Just the News dot com founder editor in chief, chief
Speaker 1: investigative reporter. Sir, glad you call glad you could be
Speaker 1: with us and more great reporting And that's just a
Speaker 1: tip of the iceberg with you this week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot going on in fact, just in
Speaker 2: the last few minutes they talked to Senator Rand Paul
Speaker 2: into House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comber. Both men they
Speaker 2: over see two of the most powerful committees in Congress.
Speaker 2: Grand Paul the Homeland Security Committee, which looks at terrorism
Speaker 2: and foreign threats, and that Comber Oversight Committee. They're both
Speaker 2: saying they're going to subpoena these Somali based couriers who've
Speaker 2: been moving hundreds of millions of dollars out of Minneapolis
Speaker 2: airport in luggage and suitcases. So we knew there was
Speaker 2: the fraud. We knew that there was the warnings to government.
Speaker 1: Can I just interrupt you who explained this here? I mean,
Speaker 1: because you're talking about millions and millions and millions of dollars.
Speaker 3: In fact, and when you.
Speaker 1: Move massive amounts of money, Now, were they moving it
Speaker 1: on private aircraft? Or are they moving on commercial aircraft?
Speaker 1: My understanding is is that you have to declare massive
Speaker 1: amounts of money, and in fact they did, and there's
Speaker 1: even a record of it.
Speaker 3: Is that true?
Speaker 2: That's correct, There's no doubt what happened. And so this
Speaker 2: began around twenty eighteen in Minnesota, right around the time
Speaker 2: that Tim Waltz is taking over as governor, and it grows.
Speaker 2: He goes from a fifty to one hundred million one
Speaker 2: year and then by twenty three and twenty fours three
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty million dollars a year in suitcases, leaving
Speaker 2: a mid size airport in the midst Midwest Minneapolis Airport,
Speaker 2: and it's going predominantly overseas, ultimately ending up in Dubai,
Speaker 2: a place that has caught the attention of our federal investigators.
Speaker 2: It's now under investigation by the Homeland Security Investigations Unit
Speaker 2: in the FBI. What's so remarkable about this is it
Speaker 2: just a few guys of Smalley descent and they're rounding
Speaker 2: up this cash. Now, when we started on this a
Speaker 2: few weeks ago, we were able to get the numbers
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty million a year for each of
Speaker 2: the last two years out of Minnesota, Minneapolis. We now
Speaker 2: have learned that some of this money was gathered up
Speaker 2: in another place, Columbus, Ohio, which is the second largest
Speaker 2: Somali population in America, and then it's moved in cash
Speaker 2: luggages from Ohio to Minnesota and then from Minnesota overseas.
Speaker 2: So it looks like an organized cash courier business. And
Speaker 2: what we now know is these two chairmen, Rand Paul
Speaker 2: in the Senate and James Comer in the House, are
Speaker 2: going to subpoena these guys and say where were you
Speaker 2: getting this money, where was it going? Why were you
Speaker 2: moving it in cash when we have the ability to
Speaker 2: move things by wire or other capabilities, banks and a
Speaker 2: remittance payment centives.
Speaker 4: Why did you put it in cash?
Speaker 2: And is any of this money, the money that the
Speaker 2: Homeland Security Department now says ended up in the hands
Speaker 2: of al Shabah, the al Qaeda terrorist group that's in
Speaker 2: Somalia and other places in northern Africa. So for the
Speaker 2: first time we've got Congress really stepping in. The other
Speaker 2: thing that is in motion today several prominent Republicans, led
Speaker 2: by Rand Paul, he's going to introduce legislation that will
Speaker 2: ban refugees and those coming to the United States as
Speaker 2: immigrants from being on public welfare. Now, we used to
Speaker 2: have a ban, and then the Joe Biden Obama here
Speaker 2: has created a workaround, which is we'll just nim everyone
Speaker 2: a refugee and then we won't say they're covered by
Speaker 2: the band. Ran Paul making clear today that if you're
Speaker 2: coming to the United States, you're not coming here because
Speaker 2: you're planning to come on the public goal and drain
Speaker 2: American taxpayer. So some real consequences now to what we're
Speaker 2: learning about this fraud scheme that we started reporting on
Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: I mean, the amount of money is breathtaking. Are we
Speaker 1: talking about billions? How much money are we talking about
Speaker 1: here right now?
Speaker 2: The best estimate of the United States Justice Department has
Speaker 2: is about nine billion of the eighteen billion dollars in
Speaker 2: welfare in Minneapolis was defrauded. So nearly fifty percent of
Speaker 2: all taxpayer funding in Minnesota for welfare entitlement and social
Speaker 2: safety net programs was defraud it it would be one
Speaker 2: of the largest scandals in American history. But people say, well,
Speaker 2: Minnesota's just a tip the iceberg, and when you go down,
Speaker 2: it's a pyramid. What happens when you get to California.
Speaker 2: We've already been looking at California, and I talked about
Speaker 2: this last week. Start looking at California. You've got in Minnesota,
Speaker 2: you got all right food stamp fraud, you've got this
Speaker 2: food aid program, you've got a autism parents support program
Speaker 2: and some Medicaid. You get out to California, there's about
Speaker 2: six or seven other big scams that are now publicly
Speaker 2: confirmed by auditors and igs. You've got fake students enrolling
Speaker 2: in California universities. They never show up, but they get
Speaker 2: the student aid. That'd say fraud scandal. You've got medicaid
Speaker 2: illegal aliens on Medicaid there. We believe when talking to
Speaker 2: some people at Scott Best and put out a jaw
Speaker 2: dropping number the other day, like a half billion dollars
Speaker 2: of fraud could ultimately be detected by the ongoing investigation.
Speaker 2: These Blue states created a system, and the system began
Speaker 2: with five steps. The first step was, let's start counting
Speaker 2: illegal aliens in the census, all right. They changed the
Speaker 2: census rules. Then the gates were opened at the border
Speaker 2: by Joe By millions of illegal aliens came in. They
Speaker 2: are lured to sanctuary cities the Blue states. In blue cities,
Speaker 2: then they're given welfare. And then when at least in
Speaker 2: the case of Governor walt now Governor Waltz is directly
Speaker 2: warned by his own state employees that's what these whistleblowers
Speaker 2: are saying. And then they look the other way, so
Speaker 2: that the fraud can continue, so that these immigrants have
Speaker 2: enough money to stay in the Blue cities in hijack apportionment,
Speaker 2: hijack representation. That is the scandal that we're beginning to
Speaker 2: see and that lawmakers are beginning to talk about very clearly.
Speaker 1: So this is going to go well beyond Minnesota, Tim
Speaker 1: walls the Somali community in Minnesota, and it's going to
Speaker 1: move to states. I've also heard Ohio mentioned on the
Speaker 1: list of states. New York is mentioned in the list
Speaker 1: of states, and California's at the top of the net
Speaker 1: list in terms of being next.
Speaker 3: Is that correct?
Speaker 2: You have it exactly right. The President in fact even
Speaker 2: signed in order directing all agencies to look at California's
Speaker 2: welfare fraud given the size and scope of what's already
Speaker 2: been documented. So California's in New Jersey. Illinois, that's a
Speaker 2: big one. Everyone's worried about Illinois. Columbus. You mentioned Columbus
Speaker 2: is the second largest Somali center. And so now that
Speaker 2: we see this cash flow from Columbus to Minnesota in
Speaker 2: the airports, which the Homeland Security Department confirmed this week,
Speaker 2: we now know that Minnesota and Ohio are connected at
Speaker 2: least in the Somali cash flow. So it's going to
Speaker 2: be a nationwide think it's probably going to be a
Speaker 2: blue state predominant blue state or blue city fraud scheme.
Speaker 2: And a lot of the lawmakers I'm talking to comber Ran,
Speaker 2: Paul tom Emmer, the number three member of the House,
Speaker 2: they said, listen, this was a political scheme that defrauded
Speaker 2: the American taxpayer. This is what lawmakers are saying. Democrats
Speaker 2: needed to bring up their numbers because this country was
Speaker 2: turning red under the Trump years. So they start bringing
Speaker 2: in illegal aliens, opened up the borders, change a census counting,
Speaker 2: bring welfare in and it's basically a system. Let's see
Speaker 2: if they can prove that in the federal government. But
Speaker 2: that's the allegation and concern right now.
Speaker 1: Well, now we also have whistleblowers that are signing AFID
Speaker 1: David's that will go under oath. That's been confirmed that
Speaker 1: they're cooperating with investigators, which is an important step. And
Speaker 1: once they're going to go under oath, and they signed
Speaker 1: these affidavits under oath, Tim Walls and others are going
Speaker 1: to be in a whole heap of trouble is my
Speaker 1: prediction here that this you know people a lot of
Speaker 1: times and you've been with us for years doing investigative work,
Speaker 1: and you've proven so much to be true, and then
Speaker 1: a lot of times people are not held accountable. I
Speaker 1: don't see how they get out of this one. I
Speaker 1: really don't. And I say that with a pretty high
Speaker 1: degree of confidence. For once, let me let me move on,
Speaker 1: because you've also been following the issue involving Greenland and
Speaker 1: Denmark and this meeting that took place Mark or Rubo
Speaker 1: for example, and representatives from Denmark, and conversations that are
Speaker 1: taking place in public comments by the president.
Speaker 3: What's really going on?
Speaker 2: Well, listen, it's a funny thing to watch this play
Speaker 2: out because a few years ago it.
Speaker 1: Was Europe, by the way, as NATO nations now a
Speaker 1: race to send troops into Greenland.
Speaker 3: It's hilarious.
Speaker 1: That is hilarious, And well, they can't defend their own
Speaker 1: country they could, and they can't.
Speaker 2: Even help Ukraine defend itself without America. The Europeans are
Speaker 2: full of elitists who actually are disconnected from reality. That's
Speaker 2: what really you learn over the last couple of decades,
Speaker 2: and so one of the most important stories that we've
Speaker 2: written in the last couple of days by Jerry Dunlavy
Speaker 2: here at Justin News and the President President Trump socialized it.
Speaker 2: It really captures the hypocrisy. So until Donald Trump wanted
Speaker 2: to grab Greenland and give it a security perimeter and
Speaker 2: make it part of the US protection opportunities, it was
Speaker 2: Europe and by the way, the Danish intelligence services themselves
Speaker 2: warning that Russian and China posts an enormous threat to
Speaker 2: the Greenland, that it was sitting naked and open in
Speaker 2: the Arctic where China and Russia are trying to project
Speaker 2: dominance and maybe create dominance in the region in the
Speaker 2: next Great Cold War for this country. So the Europeans
Speaker 2: were warning about the second Donald Trump steps and so
Speaker 2: I can fix this. I'll put you a superiority around this.
Speaker 2: We'll keep Greenland safe, maybe make it part of the
Speaker 2: United States. All of a sudden, the Europeans forget about
Speaker 2: everything they've been worried about, everything they've been warning about,
Speaker 2: and then they're suddenly against It could only because Donald
Speaker 2: Trump stepped in to create a solution that they couldn't create.
Speaker 2: But the intelligence report show the Danish government the very
Speaker 2: people said, we don't want the Americans here now. They
Speaker 2: were warning as most recently Sean as December that Greenland
Speaker 2: was engraved danger from Russian and Chinese suggression. But the
Speaker 2: second Donald Trump offers a solution, they turn around on it.
Speaker 2: They act against their own self interest because it seems
Speaker 2: like Trump derangement syndrome is pretty well positioned in Europe
Speaker 2: these days.
Speaker 1: What do you make of this ongoing confrontation with Ice.
Speaker 1: While I was on the air last night, another shooting
Speaker 1: an ICE officer, I went into great detail while we
Speaker 1: were actually on the air. We got a statement directly
Speaker 1: to Fox News about what was happening, and it was
Speaker 1: pretty devastating for the officer involved. Now, then you have
Speaker 1: Jacob Fry and Tim Walls, you know, basically attacking you know,
Speaker 1: law enforcement for doing their job, enforcing the law, just
Speaker 1: thumbing their nose at the supremacy clause of our constitution.
Speaker 1: But in this case, you had a Venezuelan guy released
Speaker 1: by Joe Biden into the country in twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: trying to evade arrest and fled the scene and then
Speaker 1: you know, crashed into a park car and then the
Speaker 1: officer caught the subject on foot and two other people
Speaker 1: come out of a house. They struggle ensues, and now
Speaker 1: you have three people ambushing an officer and he fearing
Speaker 1: for his life. One individual shot in the leg. But
Speaker 1: this situation is getting worse and worse. At thirteen hundred
Speaker 1: percent increase in assaults against agents, eight percent increase in
Speaker 1: the threat level against agents, I mean, this is a
Speaker 1: dramatically high number.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 2: Listen, what you're seeing now in Jacob Frye and Tim
Speaker 2: Waltz and all of this terrible rhetoric that won't stand
Speaker 2: behind the law in order and women of bloom is
Speaker 2: their effort to protect what they put in place. They
Speaker 2: have to protect this schema or their whole political charad
Speaker 2: is broken up. If you start deporting these illegal aliens
Speaker 2: from the country, they lose their tax base, they lose
Speaker 2: their voting base, they lose their apportionment base, and so
Speaker 2: they're willing to let their citizens, the lawful voters of
Speaker 2: Minnesota suffer from these thugs that are on the street,
Speaker 2: that are chasing away from and committing crimes and running
Speaker 2: from ice when they should be apprehended. What they're really
Speaker 2: doing is no different than if someone hold up a
Speaker 2: bank robber in their house to keep them from being
Speaker 2: arrested by the FBI and the bank ropper. You have
Speaker 2: criminal aliens that the ICE is trying to arrest. By
Speaker 2: the way, completely lawful. It is the law on the
Speaker 2: books to do this. It is the federal government stop
Speaker 2: to do it. And you now have aiding and abetting
Speaker 2: that process through their rhetoric, through their obstruction, through their lawsuits,
Speaker 2: Democratic elected leaders in these cities trying to stop it.
Speaker 2: Why because if these aliens are thrown out, these bad
Speaker 2: thugs are arrested and deported back to their countries where
Speaker 2: they came from, the entire scheme of the Democratic Party
Speaker 2: is going to be broken up, and their ability to
Speaker 2: get apportionment and fund sent to their cities is going
Speaker 2: to break up. Here's the big thing I would be
Speaker 2: watching for. I think the FBI director Cash Bertel, he
Speaker 2: said this to us on Friday, and I think we're
Speaker 2: getting close to the first arrest. Cashpertel said on Friday,
Speaker 2: the FBI is now investigating those who funded the protesters
Speaker 2: and provided logistical planning and support. They're going to be
Speaker 2: treated just like the protesters. They're going to be just
Speaker 2: like those who give material support. To terrorists. They're going
Speaker 2: to be indicted for obstructing federal proceedings. And once the
Speaker 2: money flow and the organizers, you know, these are paid
Speaker 2: protesters and then brought in from outside as we saw
Speaker 2: even in the woman who was shot, he was from
Speaker 2: another state, right, Missouri. I think it was the people
Speaker 2: who are paying organizing the Well.
Speaker 1: When you see these manuals that they put out how
Speaker 1: to fight and resist ice, Yeah, they're.
Speaker 2: Literally teaching people how to break the law. What cash
Speaker 2: Btel has put as the next line in the sand
Speaker 2: is that people who paid, organized, trained and implemented these
Speaker 2: protests to stop law enforcement from doing their job, they're
Speaker 2: going to be charged and arrested with obstruction of justice.
Speaker 2: So that happens. As a strong prediction that I think
Speaker 2: these protests will die on quickly because these organized don't
Speaker 2: mind putting the money out, but if they're going to
Speaker 2: be the people on the hook for the consequences, it's
Speaker 2: going to stop a lot quicker.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a good bet.
Speaker 1: By the way, my prediction on Greenland is Donald Trump
Speaker 1: is going to try and make them an offer they
Speaker 1: can't refuse. That's my guess on how that plays out.
Speaker 1: What are the odds.
Speaker 2: I'm right, Well, means it's going to get done through
Speaker 2: peaceful mes. Just like really at the end of the way,
Speaker 2: Venezuela was become much happier. The Venezuelans are today than
Speaker 2: they were two weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Well said John Solomon. Thank you all right, let's get
Speaker 1: to my free state of Florida. J Son, how are
Speaker 1: you glad you called, sar?
Speaker 5: How are you doing, sir? It's been an honor first
Speaker 5: time caller. But I didn't know if anybody's ever giving
Speaker 5: you the perspective of the ice agent. I'm a retired
Speaker 5: law enforcement and I went through the exact same incident
Speaker 5: where a vehicle accelerated towards me and I was four
Speaker 5: to fire. Unfortunately it ended in the loss of life
Speaker 5: of someone. I have no problem believing after what I've
Speaker 5: seen that it's going to be ruled they justified shooting.
Speaker 5: But the two points that I want to make is,
Speaker 5: you know, by.
Speaker 1: The way, we do have an update on the officer.
Speaker 1: The officer, by the way, had internal bleeding and injuries
Speaker 1: because there was you know, this narrative out there, Well,
Speaker 1: we're not really sure if the officer got hit. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: the woman backs up and accelerates right towards him. Now
Speaker 1: it's on the side, he's in front of the vehicle,
Speaker 1: and this woman puts, you know, her foot right on
Speaker 1: the gas and has headed right towards him.
Speaker 3: I don't know what.
Speaker 1: People expect that person to do at that point. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm sure that you would much you would have much
Speaker 1: preferred that never happened to you in your life, But
Speaker 1: a four thousand pounds vehicle is a clear and present
Speaker 1: danger to your life.
Speaker 5: You are so correct and just hearing the father. I
Speaker 5: don't know if many people have heard the father not
Speaker 5: blame the ICE agent.
Speaker 3: But I played it yesterday.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, But the biggest part, there's something called culpable negligence.
Speaker 5: I'm sure you're very well aware of it, Sean. You know,
Speaker 5: in my case, the passenger was really pushing the driver
Speaker 5: to accelerate. That passenger got charged. You know, coupleble negligence
Speaker 5: as when you know or should have known that your
Speaker 5: actions are going to cause harm or debt to to somebody.
Speaker 5: Why haven't they gone after the Minnesota Ice organization that's
Speaker 5: pushing these protesters to do this, to go against the
Speaker 5: ICE agents. Why haven't they gone after that, also, why
Speaker 5: haven't we seen the video from the wife's perspective that
Speaker 5: she has. They've released all types of videos. Why haven't
Speaker 5: we seen that one.
Speaker 1: That's so good? That's a very good question. Now, the
Speaker 1: President is being very very clear. If he's put out
Speaker 1: of truth today, if the grew up politicians of Minnesota
Speaker 1: don't obey the law and stop the professional you know,
Speaker 1: insurrectionists from attacking the patriots of ICE who are only
Speaker 1: doing their job, then the President might invoke the Insurrection Act,
Speaker 1: which many presidents have done before. And you know, unfortunately,
Speaker 1: he's looking at a travesty. I mean, I've been looking
Speaker 1: at the images all day and these they are doing
Speaker 1: everything they can do. Who stop ICE from doing their job.
Speaker 1: I can name names of people you know that have
Speaker 1: been killed in Minnesota and people victims of violent crime
Speaker 1: in Minnesota and Minneapolis in particular. You never hear, you know,
Speaker 1: these names come out of the mouths of Tim Walls
Speaker 1: or you know, mayor French Fry.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and they're out there saying that this is what
Speaker 5: ICE wants. And I can tell you this is not
Speaker 5: what I wanted. This is not what that ICE agent wants.
Speaker 5: He does not want to go home to his kids
Speaker 5: and explain that he had to take somebody's life. This
Speaker 5: is not what we wanted. We have to live with this.
Speaker 5: It's part of our jobs, and we're put in these positions. Sean,
Speaker 5: it's very sad. I feel for that family. Any loss
Speaker 5: of life is horrible. But the fact that there are
Speaker 5: organizations and people pushing these protesters who put themselves out
Speaker 5: there in harm's way and making decisions that they shouldn't make,
Speaker 5: it's going to get a lot of people in trouble. Officers,
Speaker 5: police officers, law enforcement agents are trained to uphold the
Speaker 5: law and that's exactly what they're going to do. They're
Speaker 5: put in these positions by their supervisors, by the President,
Speaker 5: whoever it could be, to do a job. They're just
Speaker 5: doing their jobs.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you how this is going to
Speaker 1: end badly. Let me tell you what is likely to happen.
Speaker 1: And I pray to God I'm wrong. Like we have
Speaker 1: known terrorists in the country, and to me, it's a
Speaker 1: ticking time bomb. It's a matter of when we get attacked,
Speaker 1: not if we get attacked. But I pray to God
Speaker 1: again I'm wrong. But it's going to end in ice
Speaker 1: agents dying. This rhetoric is so incendiary, it's so dehuman,
Speaker 1: it's so insightful, and it's so reckless and so irresponsible,
Speaker 1: and it has gotten to the point these politicians are
Speaker 1: living and dying off it now. The Democrats may even
Speaker 1: want to go as far as to defund ice that.
Speaker 1: They're arguing that amongst themselves in Washington, and I guess
Speaker 1: they just want to institutionalize law breaking and aid in
Speaker 1: a bed in the law breaking and not be held accountable.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to work out well for anybody.
Speaker 1: Too many people have been murdered, too many people have
Speaker 1: been raped, too many people have been victims of crime,
Speaker 1: too many drugs have made it into our country, and
Speaker 1: we've got to take a stand. And the President is
Speaker 1: right to take this stand. And if we don't do
Speaker 1: it now, we don't fix it now, We're never going
Speaker 1: to fix it anyway. Jason, God bless you, and I'm
Speaker 1: sorry you had that incident in your life.
Speaker 3: You're right.
Speaker 1: No law enforcement person I know wants to ever have
Speaker 1: have to make that tough decision. Ben North, Carolina, Sean
Speaker 1: Hannity Show, Hey, how you doing, Sean, Good sir, Glad
Speaker 1: you called him.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was in the service from ninety six to
Speaker 6: twenty seventeen in the Marines.
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you, manum pervie, Sir.
Speaker 6: Roger out, thank you. I just wanted to kind of
Speaker 6: touch base with a little bit about how kind of
Speaker 6: the incentives for young men that are in the Marines
Speaker 6: now it's changed. They do like a blended retirement. I
Speaker 6: did twenty one years and I got a check, you know,
Speaker 6: so they chipping away at incentives and it's that.
Speaker 1: Let what do you mean by a blended telling a
Speaker 1: blended retirement?
Speaker 3: What does that mean? I'm not sure what you're fering too.
Speaker 6: They do a four to oh one k and you
Speaker 6: got to wait till you're sixty two to get a
Speaker 6: check from the service.
Speaker 4: A lot of these guys and you, it.
Speaker 1: Used to be when you're retired, you got your started
Speaker 1: getting your pension, right.
Speaker 6: I've retired at forty seven, I got to check the
Speaker 6: next month.
Speaker 1: Well, I think what the net result of that is
Speaker 1: going to be is you're going to have fewer people
Speaker 1: that maybe you dreamed of being in the service because
Speaker 1: they're sacrificing enough. I mean, we've gone through on this program,
Speaker 1: how many service people have been on food stamps. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's a national embarrassment.
Speaker 2: To me.
Speaker 1: President Trump's the one guy that's been the men trying
Speaker 1: to fix it, and more recently announced you know, I
Speaker 1: think it was fifteen hundred dollars or two thousand dollars
Speaker 1: per service person with some of the power of money
Speaker 1: that he's taken in. But again, I think we need
Speaker 1: to do a lot better job with our vets. He
Speaker 1: fixed the you know, broken veterans administration in the hospital
Speaker 1: system in his first term and gave people the option
Speaker 1: of going to regular hospitals if in fact they couldn't
Speaker 1: be seen right away.
Speaker 6: Right there's a lot of copays that kind of tie
Speaker 6: into that that you know, once you retire, you know,
Speaker 6: you kind of have to re energize yourself to enter
Speaker 6: the facility and world. And let me tell you, it's
Speaker 6: not what it used to be. You got to watch
Speaker 6: your p's and q's because we're held to a really
Speaker 6: pretty higher standard, a double standards. You're in the service, and.
Speaker 1: When it's nobody everybody that I know, I find this
Speaker 1: in life and tell me if this was in your case.
Speaker 1: Most people that I know that are in the service
Speaker 1: or got into the service, or got into law enforcement,
Speaker 1: or it became teachers. Even people that have become doctors
Speaker 1: and nurses, and they it's for them. It's a vocation
Speaker 1: of calling a dream, it's a passion, it's what they
Speaker 1: what they've always wanted to do with their lives.
Speaker 3: Was that your case, it was?
Speaker 1: And the thing is is when you make a decision
Speaker 1: along those lines, you you kind of are foregoing the
Speaker 1: option of Okay, well i'll go into business and maybe
Speaker 1: I want to make a lot of money. I never
Speaker 1: got into radio thinking i'd ever be in television. I
Speaker 1: never got in I just wanted to be on the air.
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I took a massive pay
Speaker 1: cut when I started and wasn't even paid at all
Speaker 1: in the beginning, and then my first job paid me
Speaker 1: next to nothing and I could barely survive.
Speaker 3: But I just love what I was doing.
Speaker 1: For me, it was a calling and a vocation, and
Speaker 1: you know, and I was blessed beyond frankly what I
Speaker 1: deserve in my mind, and I just do it because
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean too. I worked on old boats and
Speaker 6: then I worked on hughes and covers for the Marines,
Speaker 6: and I'm still doing it and I'm an aircraft mechanic
Speaker 6: down they taught me a trade that's done really well
Speaker 6: for me.
Speaker 3: You know, isn't that great?
Speaker 1: By the way, I mean that is one of the
Speaker 1: great things the service does do for people, is that
Speaker 1: you you can learn things, and you can advance, and
Speaker 1: you could go to school, and they have all these
Speaker 1: different programs that really you know, when you do get
Speaker 1: out of the service, you know, you're you're coming out
Speaker 1: with skills that are marketable, that will pay high salaries
Speaker 1: and on top of the retirement that you earn because
Speaker 1: you also might be called an active duty and putting
Speaker 1: your life at risk.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I still got like four more years ago before
Speaker 6: I'm a out out.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, listen, thanks, thanks for what you've been doing and
Speaker 1: what you do, and uh, God bless people like you.
Speaker 1: We have the greatest military in the face of this earth,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's an all volunteer military and the
Speaker 1: best of the best, I think in the entire world
Speaker 1: by far.
Speaker 3: And you know, we we do it.
Speaker 1: We do need to support our brave men and women
Speaker 1: in uniform, our brave men and women you know, law enforcement.
Speaker 1: We got to support all these people. You know, the
Speaker 1: idea that you know we don't support them. What I've
Speaker 1: been watching all last night during my show, I just
Speaker 1: it's it makes me sick. Quick break right back to
Speaker 1: our busy phones. Here's our toll free number. It's eight
Speaker 1: hundred nine four one, Sean. If you want to be
Speaker 1: a part of the program as we roll along Hannity tonight,
Speaker 1: nine Eastern on Box. More on that coming up as
Speaker 1: we can. Right back to our busy phones, whole free number,
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine four one, sewn you want to join us.
Speaker 1: Back to our phones, let us say hi to is
Speaker 1: it Ephraim in Florida?
Speaker 3: How are you?
Speaker 4: Yes, sir? First time caller, Sean, Thanks for taking the call.
Speaker 1: I'm glad you called. Where do you live in Florida?
Speaker 1: Ie free state? I love Jacksonville, beautiful there. When I
Speaker 1: used to play golf, I don't play much anymore. Sawgrass
Speaker 1: I played it once. That part three is amazing.
Speaker 4: It's a little cold right now, so we're freezing down here.
Speaker 3: You just got to move a little a little more south.
Speaker 4: Where I am, Yes, sir. The reason why I was.
Speaker 1: Colt to tell you it's seventy degrees is right now
Speaker 1: where I am.
Speaker 3: I go ahead.
Speaker 4: The reason why I called was about the women or
Speaker 4: the self identifying women in women's sports now. And I'm
Speaker 4: a former Division one athlete thirty years ago.
Speaker 3: What kind of sport where'd you play?
Speaker 4: I played football Division one level, full scholarship athlete. I
Speaker 4: was friends with a lot of girls in women's sports.
Speaker 4: I think most of the listeners don't understand the level
Speaker 4: of commitment that these girls do in Division one athletes
Speaker 4: twelve months a year, seven days a week. They don't
Speaker 4: have time off. And I think one issue has never
Speaker 4: even discussed is there's only so many scholarship spots on
Speaker 4: the loster, right, Like I was a scholarship bubble guy,
Speaker 4: and what the bubble is. They only have so many
Speaker 4: scholarships to give, and a lot of people are on
Speaker 4: that bubble where they're they're pretty good and then they're not
Speaker 4: be great, but they won't have a certain number of scholarships.
Speaker 4: I was fortunate I got a scholarship. My point is
Speaker 4: there's girls out there who are gonna get hurt by
Speaker 4: this because they're a bubble athlete. So they're going to
Speaker 4: give that scholarship to Paul who identifies as Pamla. Now
Speaker 4: in the pool they're going to give her the scholarship
Speaker 4: instead of this girl who busted her butt her whole
Speaker 4: life to the opportunity to play Division one. Because she's
Speaker 4: on the bubble, she won't get that scholarship because they
Speaker 4: gave it to a guy who identifies as a woman.
Speaker 4: That's not fair.
Speaker 1: Well, it totally negates the shoe of title nine. And
Speaker 1: you know, my daughter, you're right, it was a full
Speaker 1: time job. She was a D one athlete and played
Speaker 1: tennis okay, and I'm very proud of her.
Speaker 3: But you give up a lot to do it.
Speaker 1: I mean practices at six in the morning, you gotta
Speaker 1: go to cross training, you gotta do weights, you gotta
Speaker 1: have practices in the afternoon. You gotta work in your classes,
Speaker 1: you gotta study. And it doesn't give you a lot
Speaker 1: of free time. It's a full time job. And the
Speaker 1: exchange yesterday I mentioned this and I'll go I'll play
Speaker 1: later in the program again. But you know, can men
Speaker 1: get pregnant? Josh Hawley at tends to exchange with a
Speaker 1: doctor that won't answer the question do you think men
Speaker 1: can get pregnant? And you know this doctor's answer is
Speaker 1: just it's so ridiculous and then you know she wasn't
Speaker 1: sure what the goal of the question was. I don't care.
Speaker 1: You know, I do take care of patients with different identities.
Speaker 1: Can men get pregnant? Again? The reason and I paused
Speaker 1: there is I'm really not sure what the goal the
Speaker 1: question is. The answer is obvious, but this is how
Speaker 1: insane it's gotten. And when I started my radio program,
Speaker 1: if you would have asked me if I'm debating and
Speaker 1: this would be debated before the US Supreme Court like
Speaker 1: this week, I wouldn't have believed you. Anyway, I do
Speaker 1: appreciate you standing up for them. Eight hundred and ninety
Speaker 1: four one, Shawn is a number if you want to
Speaker 1: be a part of the program.
