23
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: I don't know when I first predicted, didn't I say, Lauren,

24
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: I know Linda's on vacation this week that my greatest

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: fear worries the type of thing that would keep me

26
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: up at night, that that it might actually end up.

27
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: What defines the Fox News Channel, I'm sorry, not the

28
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: Fox News Channel reading something. What defines in every way, um,

29
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: the threat to freedom, humanity, in everything else, And what

30
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: will define the Trump presidency is in fact North Korea.

31
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 1: And how I've said it a whole bunch of times,

32
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: and I wish I wish it was one of those

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: days I'm wrong. I wish I so wish I was

34
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: wrong today because what we have now developing is not

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: a good situation. Now we did have last week, I

36
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: thought it was really really good news. If you get

37
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: news from the Russian gate media, you you probably don't

38
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: even know the Trump administration. They'll never tell you. The

39
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: destroy Trump media want a big victory diplomatically over the weekend.

40
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: And it offered, frankly, the last best hope to stop

41
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: North Korea without going to war. And I've been telling

42
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: you there's no good answer as it relates to North Korea.

43
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: And I'm not kidding when I say war. You've had

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 1: the last three administrations, especially the Clinton administration, the Obama administration,

45
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: you know, literally kicking down the can for a total

46
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: of twenty four years what was an emerging, obvious danger.

47
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: And now we're on the verge of a major conflagration

48
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: with with the North Koreans and the Democratic press and

49
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: the destroy Trump press, all they want to talk about

50
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: Russia Gate. Russia Gate doesn't matter today. And if what

51
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: I think can happen ultimately happens, it's even worse than

52
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: you think now, Investors Business Daily. On Saturday, the U n.

53
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: Security Council voted new sanctions on the emerging nucleus out

54
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: of North Korea great even at China and Russia going

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: along with it. It was a not unanimous fifteen zero

56
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: vote imposing sanctions against North Korea for their recent intercontinental

57
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 1: ballistic missile tests, including one just last week, followed by

58
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: a week of pressure by Trump on both North Korea

59
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: and its main allies China and Russia. Last weekend, Trump

60
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: signed the bill that imposes penalties on North Korea's shipping industry,

61
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: along with new sanctions on Russia and intelligence agencies for

62
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: their meddling in the election last year, which they've done

63
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: in previous elections, which we're told they'll do in future elections.

64
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: And Trump also recently got the EU to go along

65
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: with other sanctions, you know, against Russia for their interference

66
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: in the Eastern Ukraine. So he's taken a tough position

67
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: against the country that's supposed to have so much on him. Meanwhile,

68
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: Trump also ratcheted up his war words against China, which

69
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: is the right thing to do. It's it's in there

70
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: geopolitical area. It's their bigger problem, not our bigger problem.

71
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: And he tweeted out a little over a week ago

72
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: and very disappointed China. In China are foolish. Past leaders

73
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: have allowed them to make hundreds of billions of dollars

74
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: a year in trade, and yet they do nothing for

75
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: us with North Korea, just talk. Well, we'll no longer

76
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 1: follow allowed this to continue, He goes, China could easily

77
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: solve the problem. Well, they could in the sense that

78
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: they have the ability to put all of this economic

79
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: pressure on North Korea. Now, if it was treated as

80
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: just more than you know, crude bombast um, in some senses,

81
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: it really work when the President tweeted that out, because

82
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: on Friday, the US delivered the proposal to the UN

83
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: Security Council. On Saturday, Trump got the fifteen to zero victory,

84
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: including Russia and including China. And it's no secret out

85
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: Trump did it now to show our potential foes that

86
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 1: he means business. Well, he threatened or actually imposed sanctions

87
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: on a number of countries, which I would which I thought, was,

88
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: you know, very smart. Anyway, one, Shauna is our number.

89
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: I want to play Bill Clinton from back in what

90
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: year was this? Lauren? I forget that? What's that? Two

91
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: thousand four? I was gonna say, what night? And by

92
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: the way, when you talk, you gotta talk on the

93
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: air like Linda does or else. I don't know if

94
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: it's in my ear or it's on the air, because

95
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: it sounds the same in my ear. Yes, boss, all right, stop, alright,

96
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: So here is Bill. It's a it's a good deal

97
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: for America, good deal for America. Before I take your questions,

98
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: i'd like to say just a word about the framework

99
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: with North Korea that Ambassador de Lucy signed this morning.

100
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: This is a good deal for the United States. North

101
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: Korea will freeze and then this mantle it's nuclear program.

102
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: South Korea and our other allies will be better protected.

103
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: The entire world will be safer as we slow the

104
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: spread of nuclear weapons. It's South Korea, with support from

105
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: Japan and other nations, will bear most of the cost

106
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: of providing North Korea with fuel to make up for

107
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: the nuclear energy it is losing. And they will pay

108
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 1: for an alternative power system for North Korea that will

109
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: allow them to produce electricity while making it much harder

110
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: for them to produce nuclear weapons. The United States and

111
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: international inspectors will carefully monitor North Korea to make sure

112
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: it keeps its commitments. Only as it does so, will

113
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: North Korea fully joined the Community of Nations. Only then,

114
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: and it's going to prevent them from getting nuclear weapons.

115
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: And we paid a fortune, a total and complete fortune

116
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: to get that deal. By the way, does it all

117
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: sound familiar, Because it should, because that's exactly what Obama

118
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: did with billions of dollars, plainloads of cash and other

119
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: currency that were handed over to the Mullahs in Iran

120
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: as part of the please, please, pretty please, let's have

121
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: peace in our time, Please please don't build nuclear weapons,

122
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: and that that that's gonna work out about as well

123
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: as what happened with Neville Chamberlain and Bill Clinton in

124
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: the sense that you cannot appease evil radicals, dictators and

125
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: despots that don't care about truth and shaking hands, signing

126
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: agreements and literally stealing money and making false promises is

127
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: just par for the course. Remember in the lead up

128
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: to World War Two, there were people like Winston Churchill

129
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: warning about the the insanity, the evil that lurked, and

130
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: Adolf Hitler, and then there was the great meeting with

131
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: Neville Chamberlain, we have peace in our time. You know

132
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: that lasted long well. The same thing Bill Clinton believed

133
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: the North Koreans. He thought he made a deal, he

134
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: thought they'd never developed nuclear weapons. It costs taxpayers billions

135
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: and billions, and it didn't work out. It's the same

136
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: thinking that went into the rainy and deal with the

137
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: Mullahs in Iran that have promised to destroy America and

138
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: have promised to destroy Israel and burning American flags, burning

139
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: Israeli flags twenty five days noticed before inspections. They're not

140
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: even American inspectors. And we don't even know if we

141
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: have all the sites down. You know, at times we

142
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: could be really dumb and naive and really stupid, and

143
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: now we find ourselves this is now the consequences of

144
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: stupidity here, because if you watch the Washington Post, for example,

145
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: North Korea is now making missile ready nuclear weapons according

146
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: to US analysts, and the Washington Post reporting that North

147
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: Korea can now mount a nuclear warhead on an I CBM.

148
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: And remember the news that we've had in just the

149
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: last week that they're also building the capability that they

150
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: can fire these nuclear weapons out of a submarine. Okay,

151
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 1: we better take really close track of the submarines. And

152
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: then on top of that, we know that they can

153
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 1: also fire nuclear weapons that can meet that can literally

154
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: reach the continental United States. We better help our that

155
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: anti ballistic missile technologies working. All the tests have so

156
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: far been really good, but I had shudder to think

157
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: that that's what we're counting on. I've always predicted that

158
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan's quote Star Wars that he was mocked for

159
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: or Strategic Defense is gonna end up being as great

160
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: as legacy. But now we know that according to the

161
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: Washington Post, North Korea has now crossed that final technological threshold,

162
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: and that is they're now able to to hit the

163
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: United States. And a report last week that they can

164
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: hit New York City, that's right, with an intercontinental ballistic

165
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: missile with a nuclear warhead, and that they can hit

166
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: Boston mass with a nuclear warhead. Now, if that's all true,

167
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: you now are beholden to a madman named Kim Jong

168
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: un like his father, Kim Jong ill, would now have

169
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: the ability if we don't stop it, to incinerate New

170
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: York City with the push of a button. This is

171
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: not a game here, and there's no good options here.

172
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: What are the options unless there's somebody that is deep

173
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: inside North Korea, which is very difficult to penetrate, that

174
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: could take this guy out. There's there's no option there.

175
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: Nor do you know who's gonna take his place if

176
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: you did take him out. Okay, Option number two. Let's

177
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: say even the world aligns China, Russia, UH, the United States, Israel,

178
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: our Western European allies, Great Britain and others, and we

179
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: all align and we all take out the nuclear sites Okay,

180
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean he couldn't put one of these nuclear

181
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: weapons on a scud missile and fire it into South

182
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: Korea and Soul and god knows how many thousands, tens

183
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,439
Speaker 1: of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people will be dead.

184
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: And on top of that, when you if you have

185
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: to take out their nuclear sites, you're gonna incinerate it.

186
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: It'll be gone, it will be obliterated North Korea. And

187
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: then on top of that, does he fire Does this

188
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: madman fire at Japan? Is he stupid enough to fire

189
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: at China? Who knows what this guy is capable of.

190
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem to be governed by the rules of

191
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: mutually assured destruction. For as evil as the former Soviet

192
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: Union was, they understood they were gonna die, and that

193
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: prevented war. You know. And can Donald Trump even make

194
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: phone calls now with all the Deep State leaks leaking

195
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: conversations with presidents and prime ministers, how does he have

196
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: a private conversation when the Deep State is now monitoring

197
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: and leaking the conversations. How does he have a real

198
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 1: discussion with the world leader over this? But there's new

199
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: analysis completed last month by the Defense Intelligence agency comes

200
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 1: on the heels of another intelligence assessment that really raises

201
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: the official estimate for the total number of bombs in

202
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: North Korea, and they're atomic arsenal. And they calculated last

203
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 1: month that up to sixty nuclear weapons are now controlled

204
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: by Kim Jong un, and some independent experts believe the

205
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: number of bombs is smaller. Okay, he only has thirty,

206
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: say cut it in half, but it's got a deep

207
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 1: in the world's concern about an evolving North Korean military

208
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: threat that appears to be advancing far more rapidly in

209
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: spite of all the bribes and assurances they'd never get

210
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. Now, maybe it's years before the country's weapons

211
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: scientists designed the compact warhead, but it's coming. If it's

212
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: not here, if the Washington Post is not exactly right,

213
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 1: if our intelligence is not exactly right. The problem with

214
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: the intelligence community is very hard to grab intelligence out

215
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: of North Korea that they produced nuclear weapons for ballistic

216
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: missile delivery to include i cb M class missiles well

217
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: that hits New York City and the continental United States.

218
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: And this guy has now become increasingly confident in the

219
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: reliability of not only the nuclear arsenal but of the

220
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: ability to deliver that arsenal, and that's why we saw

221
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: what happened on Saturday. President has promised and vowed that

222
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: North Korea will never be allowed to threaten the United

223
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: States with nuclear weapons. Hr McMaster actually said the prospect

224
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 1: of a nuclear armed North Korea with nuclear tipped I

225
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: C b M s would be intolerable. From the President's perspective.

226
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 1: We have all you know, we have to provide all options,

227
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: and that includes the military option. But I'm I'm just

228
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: warning you that military option there's no good option, and

229
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: we have the best military on the face of the earth.

230
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll continue, It's says everything else now goes

231
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: in a perspective, as far as I'm concerned, the world

232
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: better be on alert. And if you don't think evil exists,

233
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 1: look at the last hundred years of human history. In

234
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: a hundred million, hundred million human souls destroyed by human

235
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: evil and governments and wars. This isn't a game. This

236
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: could be the defining moment in all of our lives.

237
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: Coming up here, Covert operative Mitch rap is ready for anything,

238
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 1: but this time the enemy is ready for him. Read

239
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: order to kill the explosive new novel in Vince Flynn's

240
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: number one New York Times best selling Mitch Rap series.

241
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: Because of unscrupulous members of the Pakistani secret Service, Rap

242
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: finds himself chasing false leads in an effort to keep

243
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: Pakistani nukes from falling into the hands of terrorists. Soon,

244
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: it becomes alarmingly clear that the forces in Moscow are

245
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: bent on fomenting even more chaos and turmoil in the

246
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: Middle East, and Rap must go deep into a racky territory,

247
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: posing as an American ISIS recruit. There, he uncovers a

248
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: plan more dangerous and insidious than he ever expected, one

249
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: that could have far reaching and catastrophic consequences. Written with

250
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: the same relentless action as Vince Flynn's greatest novels, Mitch

251
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: Rap's latest adventure is as timely and provocative as ever.

252
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: Ordered to Kill a Mitch Rap novel by Kyle Mills,

253
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: is now in paperback wherever books are sold. Donald Trump

254
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: and North Korea makes more threats, they will be met

255
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: with fire, fury, empower. There's there's no other option. But now,

256
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: imagine if you're South Korea, imagine if you're Japan. You

257
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: know now you know China better be paying very close attention,

258
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: and they've they've allowed this problem to grow out of

259
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: control by not confronting him Jong and up to this point,

260
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: and now they're very close in terms of proximity. What

261
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: if this guy is like a suicide bomber in this sense.

262
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: What if he's a leader that doesn't care about mutually

263
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: a short destruction. What if he just wants to go

264
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: down with the ship. There are people that have that mindset.

265
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he does, but what if he does.

266
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 1: You have to assume the worst if you don't. And

267
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: and so if you can't take him out internally because

268
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: nobody can get in there internally, what are your options here? Okay,

269
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: analyze this. So let's say we can build a world coalition.

270
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: Let's say the the fifteenth to zero vote is an

271
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: indication of a world coalition of some of the biggest

272
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: best armies in the world, coupling with the lone superpower

273
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: of the United States. Then we could bring Israel in.

274
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: Then we can bring in Let's say the communist Chinese

275
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: want to come in. Let's say even Russia wants to

276
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: come in. Let's say Great Britain comes in, and all

277
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: of our Western European allies. And let's say we come

278
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: up with the biggest, best, hardest hitting campaign to take

279
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: out every single nuclear side of North Korea. Okay, well,

280
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: all right, let's assume we do that. Now for a second,

281
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 1: let's assume we're successful. We take out all of those

282
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: nuclear sites, the biggest military operation in the history of

283
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: the world. Okay, what if those bombs burst? Now you've

284
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: got you will have in your lifetime the obliterate ship.

285
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean obliterating an entire country. And I don't check, Lauren,

286
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 1: what the what the population of North Korea South Korea is.

287
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: Then you have nuclear fallout issues from that. And let's

288
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: say that he's able to launch in the interim as

289
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: the attack is coming in, He's prepared to launch on

290
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: South Korea Japan in the interim, and we can't stop it,

291
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: even with our thad anti ballistic missile system. Well, then

292
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: how many tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands can die

293
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: there and the nuclear fallout from that, and then you

294
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,719
Speaker 1: can't not factor in that, Well can he? He can

295
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: hit China a lot more easily than the continental United States.

296
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: No good option here, That's what happens. You appease dictators.

297
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: Before I take your questions, I'd like to say just

298
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 1: a word about the framework with North Korea that Ambassador

299
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: to Lucy signed this morning. This is a good deal

300
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: for the United States. North Korea will freeze and then

301
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: dismantle its nuclear program. South Korea and our other allies

302
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: will be better protected. The entire world will be safer

303
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: as we slow the spread of nuclear weapons. South Korea,

304
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: with support from Japan and other nations, will bear most

305
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 1: of the costs of providing North Korea with fuel to

306
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: make up for the nuclear energy it is losing, and

307
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 1: they will pay for an alternative power system for North

308
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: Korea that will allow them to produce electricity while making

309
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: it much harder for them to produce nuclear weapons. The

310
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 1: United States and international inspectors will carefully monitor North Korea

311
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: to make sure it keeps its commitments. Only as it

312
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: does so, will North Korea fully joined the Community of Nations.

313
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 1: Over a year ago, we took the first step towards

314
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 1: today's framework with a deal to stop the progress of

315
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: New Iran's nuclear program and roll it back in key

316
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: areas and recall it. At the time, skeptics argued that

317
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: Iran which cheat and that we could not verify their

318
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 1: compliance and the interim agreement would fail. Instead, it has

319
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: succeeded exactly as intended. Iran has met all of its obligations.

320
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 1: It eliminated its stockpile of dangerous nuclear material. Inspections of

321
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: Iran's program increased, and we continued negotiations to see if

322
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: we could achieve a more comprehensive deal. Today, after many

323
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: months of tough principal diplomacy, we have achieved the framework

324
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: for that deal, and it is a good deal, a

325
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 1: deal that meets our core objectives. This framework would cut

326
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: off every pathway that Iran could take to develop a

327
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon. Iran will face strict limitations on its program,

328
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 1: and Iran has also agreed to the most robust and

329
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: intrusive inspections and transparency regime ever negotiated for any nuclear

330
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: program in history. So this deal is not based on trust,

331
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 1: it's based on unprecedented verification. Not really, because you got

332
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: twenty five days notice of inspections, enough time to prob

333
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 1: they clean up the mess. Well, the the radioactive material

334
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: will will linger around, so we can pick it up.

335
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: They'll they'll they'll purposely put in there's something that will

336
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: will give some fake phony rationale for the radioactive activity

337
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 1: picked up. You know, I don't think most people really

338
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: understand the threat of all of this and the proliferation

339
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 1: of nuclear weapons. But you know, North Korea is now

340
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: on the path to becoming a full fledged nuclear power.

341
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: And as I keep saying, there's no good option, do

342
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: you know in big cities all across the world, And

343
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that a lot of you don't know that.

344
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: But my years around law enforcement intelligence people uh FBI,

345
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: friends of mine and and just all these people they've shared,

346
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: especially in the last number of years, about leaking an

347
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: intel and unmasking and surveillance, and I've learned so much

348
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: and I just want to share it all with you,

349
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,959
Speaker 1: which is why we keep putting all these experts on

350
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: because it's number one on fascinated by it all, and

351
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: it's very little in life that keeps me up at night.

352
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm not a person that has ever consumed with fear.

353
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 1: I'm not a warrior. I don't sit in my hands,

354
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: and I have enough faith that Okay, what's meant to

355
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: be is meant to be, and and I'm willing to

356
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: go down with the ship of the things that I

357
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: deeply believe in. And that's it really is that simple.

358
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: And I'm a fighter and I fight back and if

359
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: I win, I win. If I lose, then I'll shake

360
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: hands and say goodbye. That's how I live my life.

361
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: I have very deeply held core beliefs that guide me so.

362
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 1: But it's one of the things that keeps me up

363
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: at night. And big cities all across the world you

364
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: probably don't know, are monitoring every square inch to see

365
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,959
Speaker 1: if they pick up any radioactive activity. There are people

366
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: that I know in New York City where the monitors

367
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: they just get out of some type of proceed jer.

368
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: Maybe they were getting radiation to deal with the cancer treatment,

369
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: maybe a thallium stress tests. I know somebody that's had

370
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: a thallium stress test with a kind of shoot tallium.

371
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: I've had these tests a number of times to make

372
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: sure I don't have a heart attack. And uh a

373
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: little people warm you all handed. Do you keep getting

374
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: getting worked out, You're gonna have a heart attack, According

375
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: to my doctor, I'm not. And it's a it's a

376
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: great test. But you have these tests and then you

377
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 1: walk around your radioactive and then the detectors pick up

378
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: on it. B bi bi bi bi bi bip bip

379
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: bip bip, and all of a sudden, a couple of

380
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: cops come up. And you know, if they see it's

381
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: an older gentleman or a woman, that probably not going

382
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: to confront them. But if your younger person and you

383
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: have a backpack, they might thinking you have a dirty

384
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: bomb because of the amount of damage that can be done,

385
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: I mean human beings. And this gets to my whole

386
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 1: focus of deliver us from evil. What what we're now

387
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: facing with North Korean and if we're not smart, what

388
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: we'll face down the road with Iran is when it's

389
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: a squared B squared C squared. If you take radicalism,

390
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: take the Mullahs in Iran for a second, that want

391
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: to annihilate and have repeatedly threatened to wipe Israel off

392
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: the map, repeatedly threatened the United States of America and

393
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: burning our flags, death to America, the Great Satan, the

394
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: Little Satan, on and on and on. And you couple

395
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 1: it with a belief system as they have that this

396
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: is the will of of their God to destroy innocent men,

397
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: women and children. And it's taken to such an extreme

398
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: point that some of these people will actually strap bombs

399
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: on their own kids and send them off into you know,

400
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: public places for maximum amount of damage and let them

401
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: kill innocent men, women and children. Okay, telling them that

402
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: their God I'll awaits them in heaven and that they're

403
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 1: gonna be rewarded with seventy two virgins for the average person.

404
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 1: You just can't comprehend that evil. You know, it's let

405
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: me see if I can explain it better. If I

406
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: don't know why, I guess because I'm a loser. I mean,

407
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 1: there's the answer that's gonna be the headline somewhere someplace

408
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: that Hannity admits it. Finally, it'll be on Mediaite. Hannity

409
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: admits he really is a loser. Breaking really, you guys,

410
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: you in the middle of a serious discussion. You guys

411
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: have to distract me. But what I mean by that

412
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,919
Speaker 1: is I spent a lot of time watch the History Channel.

413
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: I watched the American Heroes Channel. You know, there's old

414
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: saying that if you don't learn from history or doomed

415
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,959
Speaker 1: to repeat it and if you just watch, just observe.

416
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: You know, they got all these series because they there

417
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: is a lot of footage that over the years has

418
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: come off Hitler in his final days, Hitler's Rise, Hitler's Fall,

419
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: Hitler is this, Allied forces this and you just learned

420
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 1: so much that there was every indication that this was

421
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: the rise of evil in Germany at the time. And

422
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: then you could see this. It's very interesting to watch

423
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: mass hypnosis and like, how is it that good people,

424
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: otherwise good people can be so indoctrinated, they can so

425
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: compartmentalize any form of goodness and conscience and right and

426
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: wrong within them that their job And I described this

427
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: scene in my book where it was the job of

428
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 1: these murdering Nazis. You know, all these people would be

429
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: put on trains, they'd be brought to the concentration camps.

430
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: And the first thing that the the those that were

431
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: doing the deeds of Hitler would do. Okay, now, is

432
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: anybody here that's a carpenter? Oh would you? How good?

433
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: We need carpenters. Anybody here that's a nurse, Oh great,

434
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: but you please step forward. Anyone here that is involved

435
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: in I don't know, steelwork or whatever. Anyone here that

436
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: can do plumbing, any whatever it was. And these people

437
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: what they were doing is they were trying to prevent fear,

438
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: panic and chaos, and those people would step forward, and

439
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: those people were given hope, false hope, and then their

440
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: clothes were taken off, They're told of going into a shower,

441
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: and they were all slaughtered. How does one human being

442
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: do that to another human being? How do you do that?

443
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: What do you go home and eat dinner with your

444
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 1: own kids? How do you do that? That's evil? Mass

445
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: hypnosis and docronation. How do you explain the killing fields

446
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 1: in Cambodia? How do you explain Bolca Haram? How do

447
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: you explain Stalin's Russia? How do you explain man's in

448
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: humanity to man on a on a micro level? Rape, incest,

449
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: hurting children? How do you explain murder, rage, whatever, hurting

450
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: old people? There's a lot of evil. I tried to

451
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: explain that. I think for most good people, they have

452
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: a hard time comprehending wrapping their minds, their good minds

453
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 1: around the fact that evil exists. And I think world

454
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: leaders also similarly put their heads in the sand. The

455
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: classic example is is Churchill and Chamberlain. Another exact. I

456
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 1: think Bill Clinton really believed he made a good deal

457
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: with with North Korea. I don't think it was nefarious.

458
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: I don't think he thought this day would come. I

459
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: believe he wanted to believe they could be good and

460
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 1: good people have same with Obama and the wrong And

461
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 1: I'm telling you that there's not good all good in

462
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: this world. There is evil, and evil needs to be defeated.

463
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: And if your mindset, you're national, your thought process drives

464
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: you two strap bombs on your own kids and tell

465
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: them you're going to heaven. That's evil in our time.

466
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 1: So the challenges here are unbelievable. Here's another just to

467
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 1: add to our collective paranoia today and and genuine concern.

468
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 1: I don't worry, you get concerned. Well, just last month,

469
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: North Korea was caught surveilling one of our ground based

470
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 1: missile defense sites. Reuters are suspected North Korean drone had

471
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: taken photographs of an advanced US anti missile battery in

472
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: South Korea before it crashed while apparently on its way

473
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: back home. I was reported by the South Korean military.

474
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: Drone mounted with a camera was found last week in

475
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: a forest near the border with North Korea, similar in

476
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: size shape to a North Korean drone that was found

477
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: back in on an island near the border. We confirmed

478
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: that it took about ten photos of the anti missile

479
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: system known as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense. That's

480
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: a TAD missile system that we we've been successfully now testing.

481
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: According to South Korean Defense Ministry, drome was suspected of

482
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: obviously being from North Korea. South Korea is deploying the

483
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: U S anti missile defense system, you know, literally from

484
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: about a hundred and fifty five miles from the border

485
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: with North Korea to counter this growing missile threat from

486
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: North Korea. Let me get to some other news here

487
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: and then we'll check in the next hour. J Secular

488
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: a weigh in on that, on the varying scandals and

489
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: what do you do about Rosenstein and everything else. But

490
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: you know, it's um And by the way, during the

491
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: Obama years, it's been thirty four years since President Reagan

492
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: unveiled strategic defense, and he was mocked and he was ridiculed.

493
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: Past star wars. We may end up saving hundreds of

494
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: thousands or millions of lives at some point plast star wars.

495
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: I've said it since that time that it may be

496
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 1: his greatest achievement through the prism of history. The Obama administration,

497
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: by the way, canceled. Some of the most important missile

498
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: defense programs started withdrawing the US and their Anti Ballistic

499
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: Missile Treaty in two thousand and two, when Obama's missile

500
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: defense policies shift cost the nation precious time and capabilities

501
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: at a time where you can see the emergence of

502
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: more and more new enemies. This is not going to

503
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: make the anti Trump media happy. But anyway, Donald Trump's

504
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: approval rating, according to Zogby, is now at It's interesting.

505
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,959
Speaker 1: Maybe it's the new comeback kid, driven by gains among Hispanics,

506
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: union households, and voters in the West. Zogby also said

507
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: more men approve of Trump than don't, and the president's

508
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: approval rating is rebounded from their July pol so pretty significantly.

509
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 1: That won't be reported on fake news. I promise you

510
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: it'll be avoided at all costs on fake news. Uh,

511
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: we do have Well, Pat Buchanan's gonna talk, Well, what

512
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: about the coup? What do you do after that? Because

513
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: they are trying to take the president out. The New

514
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: York Post has a piece today. Intelligence community insiders claim

515
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: that the NSA has Hillary's deleted emails. Well, if that's true,

516
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: we're ever gonna get to see them, considering they wore

517
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: under subpoena, you know, that would be that would be

518
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: an important development. We also have the New York Times

519
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: blaming the plunging summer temperatures and global warming. Turns out

520
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: that it's a long time old in terms of the

521
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: reports they're putting out. So we've got more fake news

522
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: out there every single day. You know, talk about bad timing.

523
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: The New York Times reporting that America is already suffering

524
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: from out of control global warming. Meanwhile, the temperature in

525
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: New York City has been struggling to get out of

526
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: the sixties. For the last week, it's been the coolest

527
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: you know days of summer we've had this year. How

528
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,479
Speaker 1: is it? You know, if it ains global warming, snows

529
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: global warming, if it's storms, global warming, if it's cold,

530
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: global warming, everything global warming. No, actually, it started out

531
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,719
Speaker 1: as the Coming Ice Age, then global warming, and now

532
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: it's just climate change. To anything happens, you just blame

533
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: it on man made disasters. What are we gonna ride

534
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: bicycles and live in tents? I don't think so. Human

535
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: beings advance and these are renewable natural resources. Alright, We've

536
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: got a lot coming up with the course of the program,

537
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: Pap you can and Jase Secular at the top of

538
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: the next hour, we're more breaking news on this North

539
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 1: Korea situation. The UK expresses now reporting, uh, I didn't

540
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: see it, but apparently this broke before the Washington Post

541
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: bombshell about North Korea being able to make their i

542
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: CBMs war ready, their warhead ready more particularly, but anyway,

543
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: there's a big headline as that North Korea has deployed

544
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: to anti ship cruise missiles onto a patrol boat. As

545
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: tensions now in the Korean Peninsula now reach a breaking point.

546
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: President has now spoken out and the President is being

547
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: very strong in in his comments and he's now out

548
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: there saying Okay, I'm ready, let's go game on. And

549
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: he said that if they will be met with fire

550
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: and fury if they make more threats against the U. Well,

551
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: I did see the President at the Phoenix airport the

552
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: other night as I was landing he was headed out.

553
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: He did come over and say hello and speak to

554
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: my husband and myself and um talk about his grandchildren

555
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: and his travels and and things like that. So that

556
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: was the extent of that and no discussions were held

557
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: in any cases or anything of that, and he didn't

558
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,959
Speaker 1: raise anything about that either. Let me go back, if

559
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 1: I can, very briefly to the decision to publicly go

560
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: out with your results on the email. Was your decision

561
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: influenced by the Attorney general's tarmac meeting with the former

562
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: President Bill Clinton. Yes, in in an ultimately conclusive way.

563
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: That was the thing that kept it for me that

564
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: I had to do something separately to protect the credibility

565
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: of the investigation, which meant both the FBI and the

566
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: Justice Department. Where there are other things that contributed to

567
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: that that you can describe in an open session, there

568
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,800
Speaker 1: were other things that contributed to that one significant item

569
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: I can't I know that committee has been briefed on.

570
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,240
Speaker 1: There's been some public accounts of it, which your nonsense,

571
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: but I understand that committee has been briefed on the

572
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: classified facts. Probably the only other consideration I guess I

573
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 1: can talk about an open setting is that at one

574
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 1: point the Attorney General had directed me not to call

575
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: it an investigation, but instead to call it a matter,

576
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: which confused me and concerned me. But that was one

577
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: of the bricks in the load that led me to

578
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 1: conclude I have to step away from the department if

579
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: we're to close this case credibly. The Attorney general previous

580
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: Attorney General asking you about the investigation on the Clinton emails,

581
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: saying that you've been asked not to call it an

582
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: investigation anymore, but to call it a matter, and you

583
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: had said that confused you can you give us additional

584
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: details on that? Well, it concerned me, and I want

585
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: to know what was she going to authorize us to

586
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: confirm we had an investigation? And she said, yes, but

587
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: don't call it that, call it a matter. And I said,

588
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: why would I do that? And she said, just call

589
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: it a matter. And again, you look back in hindsight,

590
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: you think, should I have resisted harder? I just said,

591
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 1: all right, isn't worth this is an hill worth dian

592
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 1: on And so I just said, okay, the press is

593
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: going to completely ignore it. And that's what happened. When

594
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: I said we have opened a matter. They all reported

595
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 1: the FBI as an investigation open. And so that concerned

596
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 1: me because that language track the way the campaign was

597
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 1: talking about the FBI's work, and that that's concerning it

598
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: gave the impression that the campaign was somehow using the

599
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: same language of the FBI because you were handed the

600
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: campaign language and told to be able to use the

601
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: campaign whether, and again I don't know whether it was

602
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: intentional or not, but it gave the impression that the

603
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: Attorney General was looking to align the way we talked

604
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: about our work with the way political campaign was describing

605
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: the same activity, which was inaccurate. We had a criminal

606
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: investigation open, as I've said before, the Federal Bureer of Investigation.

607
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: We had an investigation open at the time, and so

608
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 1: that gave me a queasy feeling. Alright, our to Shawn

609
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: Hannity's show, toll free telephone number eight nine one, Shawn,

610
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: We'll watch him very closely. The dangerous evolving North Korea situation,

611
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: as I've been saying, I do not think there is

612
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: any good answer here. And in spite of the huge

613
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: victory by the President, the fifteen to zero vote including

614
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: China and even Russia on sanctions from North Korea, well,

615
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 1: the fact that North Korea now has many nukes and

616
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 1: making missile ready nuclear weapons according to analysts, and they

617
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: can mount a nuclear weapon on a I CBM. This

618
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: is beyond a clear and present danger to this country,

619
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: including their capacity to reach the continental United States and

620
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 1: New York City and Boston, Massachusetts. And I don't see

621
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,760
Speaker 1: a whole lot of good options. It's got to really

622
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 1: scare anyone that that loves human life that the potential

623
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: catastrophe that this this madman can cause it is beyond frightening.

624
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: Jay Secular is with us. He is the chief counsel

625
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: for the American Center for Law and Justice. He's also

626
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 1: a counselor to the President. UM. And before I get

627
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: to the issues involving the sound we just played from

628
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: Loretta Lynch and James call me and the tarmac meeting. UM,

629
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: I don't see a whole lot of good options here, Jay,

630
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: I really don't. Look this is We had some of

631
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,240
Speaker 1: our lawyers and legal team that deal with military affairs,

632
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: both of them which are former colonels in the United

633
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 1: States Army. Both were stationed actually UH in Korea multiple times.

634
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: And the options are not pleasant because the reality is

635
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: that a military option, which may be necessary here, will

636
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: probably result in significant civilian casualties in South Korea. Because

637
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: the DMC is such a small area, it's easy to

638
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: log right into the major capitals of South Korea, major

639
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: populization centers, and then you have the difficulty of a

640
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: regime that's so unstable you don't know what they're gonna do,

641
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: and you can't allow that kind of type of capability,

642
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,240
Speaker 1: nuclear capability to reach the region, but also the United States.

643
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 1: So I mean, I think the world has changed drastically

644
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 1: in the last two hours with this information coming forward,

645
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: and I think that the President, I'm sure, in conjunction

646
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: with his National security team and Secretary Maddis, I'm sure

647
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: engaged in discussions on I can't imagine they're not engaging

648
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: discussions on This is a This is a serious threat

649
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,320
Speaker 1: to the United States and a serious threat to world stability.

650
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: You know, it's so scary. I mean, this is the

651
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: great danger, and I guess there's no point unless we

652
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: learn from the mistakes of the past. I mean, North

653
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 1: Korea would constantly play the United States, and I know

654
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: Bill Clinton, so we got a deal. This is good

655
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: for America, good for the world, and you can't buy

656
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: peace from a radical dictatorship. Well the dictatorship that thinks.

657
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: I remember, the people unfortunately in North Korea have been

658
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: led to believe for literally decades and decades that their

659
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,720
Speaker 1: leaders are actually deity. So you know, you're we're dealing

660
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: with a step beyond even the Ayatolas and Iran the

661
00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,439
Speaker 1: populace there and in the way it's projected is that

662
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: that that Kim Jong un is a form of deity,

663
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 1: so they're gonna follow the deity. And while the regime

664
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: is repressive to the people, the maps of electricity show

665
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: that the reality is a nuclear warhead on a missile

666
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: from North Korea will the UH not only could well

667
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,479
Speaker 1: would wreck havoc around the globe, but it also would

668
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: be both an international threat to US and a course

669
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: of regional threat. But you got asked the Chinese and

670
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: the Russians, I mean, and they voted for that sanction,

671
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: but they got the capability if there is some leverage

672
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: there sewn, and I think that's the they have not

673
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: come to the table, so to speak on that other

674
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 1: than voting for the sanctions. But they could be brought

675
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: to their knees economically, but it's gonna take the Russians

676
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: in the Chinese to do that. Well, I agree in China.

677
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,959
Speaker 1: You know, the one good thing about the president meeting

678
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: with the Chinese premier and President, I mean, it was

679
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,839
Speaker 1: apparently they really hit it off. And you remember when

680
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 1: they stopped the shipment. If you're a call I believe

681
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: of of coal, and I thought it was a very

682
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: big step. And then the Chinese imported American call instead,

683
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: and apparently there's been subsequent conversations, which is on a

684
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: side note, another reason you can't be leaking private conversations

685
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: from the deep state when an American president talks to

686
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,760
Speaker 1: presidents of prime ministers and so, I think there's certainly

687
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 1: a relationship and certainly some progress there um. But at

688
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: the end of the day, ja I mean, if you

689
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: try and take out the best option to me would

690
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,919
Speaker 1: be if you have somebody withinside that could take them out.

691
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,479
Speaker 1: Then you don't know who's gonna what the next person

692
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: is gonna do. And that next person now has access

693
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: to nuclear weapons with I CBM capability, Then if you

694
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 1: try to take them out militarily, you don't get all

695
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: the sites at once, and it would need to be

696
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,879
Speaker 1: a worldwide effort. It would need to be a coordination

697
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: with China, Russia and and Israel and Great Britain. And

698
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: then if you try to take out the sites, what

699
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: if the guy puts it on a scud missile and

700
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,839
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon and hits it right into Soul or Japan. Well,

701
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: that's the great you know, the great military risk here

702
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: is uh the regional risk is Soul is an easy distance,

703
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: as is Japan. So the when you're dealing with the

704
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: situation like this, as I've talked to our military uh

705
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: official and listen lawyers with the a c l J.

706
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 1: That that's where the options here are rather limited. But

707
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: you cannot allow Kim Jong un to take this kind

708
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 1: of action or threaten this kind of action. Uh. So again,

709
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: as you just said, it's going to take a partnership

710
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: of willing countries to engage and to engage in the

711
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: North Koreans directly with the threat of force if necessary,

712
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: and it is necessary uh and would be necessary if

713
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: this kind of provocation takes place. But there's a lot

714
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: on the obviously, a lot on our defense officials, a

715
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 1: lot on the president. Right now, all right, let me

716
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,399
Speaker 1: let me ask you this question. So we have all

717
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: of these variant scandals that exist out there, including the

718
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: issue that the a c l J was was able

719
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: to get through a Freedom of Information Act request. You

720
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: were first told by then that BI Director James called

721
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: me that there was no interactions, when in fact, there

722
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 1: were furious interactions somewhat for fifty some on pages of interactions,

723
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: including a desire and talking points that were built the well,

724
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: they never sent them to you, right, So the FBI

725
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: came back and when we put the initial request and

726
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:07,439
Speaker 1: you do it in a letter first, and they said

727
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: there were no documents responsive to your request. And then

728
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: we did the same requests over to the Department of Justice.

729
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 1: They didn't even respond. This was under the Obama administration.

730
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 1: We then filed suit in October and got a got

731
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: a document demand on the court issue in order requiring

732
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: a document demand which showed not only emails between the

733
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: FBI and the Department of Justice, which was contrary with

734
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: the FBI sent but also and the alias involving the

735
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 1: Attorney General using the alias, and the media corroboration in

736
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 1: all of this trying to kind of craft the story.

737
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 1: But today, as we are continuing to go through these

738
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 1: documents shown and trying to trace who's who, we found

739
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,320
Speaker 1: two interesting, very significant developments. One is there's an email

740
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: actually from the Office of Public Affairs who the White

741
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 1: House Assistant Went House Press Secretary at the time was

742
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: Brandy Hafein regarding the statement that's going to be made.

743
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: And this is despite the fact that the then White

744
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 1: House Press folkesperson said we're letting the Department of Justice

745
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: response to this, We're not involved in this at all.

746
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: Well that that ended up not being correct. And then interestingly,

747
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: the senior Counsel to the and this is we just

748
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 1: got this today as we're checking each individual. The senior

749
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: counsel to the Attorney General, Page her Wig. She was

750
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,280
Speaker 1: a counsel to the Attorney General. She's on the original

751
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: email chain about this whole situation involving the President Clinton

752
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: and Lauretta Lynch is now the jeopardy general counsel to

753
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: the Senator Diane Feinstein, who is the ranking member of

754
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: the Senate Judiciary Committee. And remember the Senate Judiciary Committee

755
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: sent out the letter saying that they are investigating this

756
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: whole Lauretta Lynch, Bill Clinton, and the entire way that

757
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: Clinton email candle was handled in the first place. So

758
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: that's her commitment. She's the ranking minority member of the committee.

759
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 1: And her lawyer was the debut was the counsel to

760
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: the Attorney General when all this was going on. You

761
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: talk about conflicts of interest, I mean and their multitude.

762
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: And then we have a situation. Also, as we're checking

763
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: who the people are, there was an email to a

764
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: Matthew axel Rod, a principal associate, a deputy Attorney General,

765
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: was basically an assistant to Sally Yates. We checked on

766
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: on Max Matthew Axelrod's background, on what he's known for

767
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 1: and in his law firm that he's with now bio.

768
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: They note that he was a senior official overseeing all

769
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: department operations that also took the lead in advising on

770
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: crisis management within the d o J. Which clearly this

771
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: became crisis management within the d o J, but then

772
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 1: it was also Sean went to the FBI Chief of

773
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: Staff and and senior counsel to James Comey. James Comy says, well,

774
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: the reason I had to go public on this was

775
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: because Loretta Lynch had done and he was worried about

776
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: the integrity of the ffort. That was never true anyway,

777
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: because there is a processing place that does not include

778
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: the FBI director if in fact an attorney general needs

779
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: to be recused, like in the case of Lauretta Lynch. Correct,

780
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: of course, she never recused herself. Despite all of this,

781
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: she never recused her to stay right there. We are

782
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 1: waiting and watching. The world is on edge today. This

783
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: North Korea threat is real. It is a clear and

784
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: present danger. There are not a lot of good options.

785
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,240
Speaker 1: We'll get to all of this. We'll get to your calls.

786
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 1: We have our news round up information overload, and we

787
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: will also be checking in with Pat Buchannon on that

788
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: issue and the other issues of the day. And as

789
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,720
Speaker 1: we continue. He is the Chief council of the American

790
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: Center for Law and Justice. Uh and that's Jay Sekulo

791
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: is with us. We're following a lot of stories. Does

792
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 1: the Attorney General now he announced that he's really digging

793
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: down deep into the deep state leaks, which are about

794
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: one a day, all of them probably illegal. But there

795
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: seems to be a need for a lot of other

796
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: special counsels. And then that would deal with the emails,

797
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,719
Speaker 1: that would deal with uranium, one that would deal with

798
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: Ukrainian Russian interference, that would deal perhaps even with Debbie

799
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 1: Wasson and Schultz, that would deal with, you know, the

800
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: leaking itself. Having a special counsel? Um does he have

801
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 1: that authority? And and why is it that Rosenstein only

802
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 1: called this special counsel when there's a lot more evidence

803
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 1: on these other scandals. Well, you may not need a

804
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: special counsel for these others because of the Department of Justice,

805
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,920
Speaker 1: within its own agencies can investigate this. The FBI and

806
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice could investigate, open up and reopen

807
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: these investigations based on newly discovered evidence or an incomplete investigation.

808
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 1: I have no basis to know whether they've been were

809
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 1: closed with prejudice, and those investigations could be going on

810
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: right now as we speak, and we wouldn't usually know

811
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: about that. So we know that, for instance, that the

812
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 1: Senate Judiciary Committee is looking at a lot of these,

813
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: We know that the Senate Intel Committee wants to look

814
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 1: at these. But the question of the Department of Justice,

815
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: they don't need a special counsel in order to do

816
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: an investigation of these matters and to come up with

817
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: a conclusion, whether it's the foundation, whether it's uranium one

818
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: back on the email scandal, whatever it might be. That

819
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 1: is something that could be handled within the framework of

820
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice as it is. There's not a

821
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: need for special counsel. No one would be recused from

822
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:42,040
Speaker 1: handling those matters. Okay, So do you think that there's

823
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: no way we'll ever know if these investigations are going on.

824
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 1: There's no way we'll ever know if grand juries are impaneled.

825
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: You know what I mean showing we don't like leaks,

826
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 1: So I mean in the in the perfect we don't

827
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: want leaks. Look, I mean here there's a unit we

828
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: now know according to the uh Rod Rosen seen and

829
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: also according to Attorney General Sessions that they've got a

830
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 1: union instant, which is what we were calling for, an

831
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 1: union inside d o J that is, and I guess

832
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: FBI as well as part of that task forces to

833
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: to stop these leaks and to handle these leaks aggressively

834
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: and assertively. So that's existing. And again I I don't

835
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 1: like leaks, so I don't want to hear about it

836
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 1: going on. When they have something to announce regarding a leak,

837
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: for instance, a indictment on a person that was has

838
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: been accused of leaking, or an arrest or whatever it

839
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: might be, that's appropriate, but the investigation itself should be

840
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 1: going under quietly and not with a lot of fanfare.

841
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 1: Hopefully that's the case on these I think that the

842
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: there's no question the Attorney General said that they are

843
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 1: making this a top priority. Clearly the president wants of

844
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: the top priority. Look, you mentioned this earlier last segment.

845
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 1: I mean, you had the conversations with the President and

846
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: conversations you had with the leader of Mexico and Australia.

847
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 1: Those were leaked for batim. Now you've got the situation

848
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 1: going on right now with North Korean and nuclear threat

849
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 1: that poses a test for everybody in the region and

850
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 1: around the globe, and you sure don't want to see

851
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: those leaks. So I think the leaks have to be

852
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: clamped down. I think this is a you situation shown

853
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 1: the whole leaking nature of the bureaucracy, and it has

854
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: to be dealt with firmly. And I'm hopeful that the

855
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: Attorney General is gonna do that. Do you think as

856
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,919
Speaker 1: I do, that probably the biggest scandal if we ever

857
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 1: got to the hundred and forty five million dollars and

858
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: where it came from and the signing off on on

859
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 1: up to of uranium as in the case of the

860
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: uranium one deal, is that the biggest scandal in your

861
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 1: minus our last question of about twenty seconds. Yeah, I mean, look,

862
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you explain it? I mean, that's

863
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: why it's a scandal, I mean of your ranium going

864
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 1: into Russia. I mean, what's the justification for this? So sure?

865
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: I mean and and you don't have to look that

866
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,760
Speaker 1: in the totality of circumstances. Just look at what happened,

867
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: what transpired, what we know transpired, and you ask yourself,

868
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: how is that deemed to be okay, appropriate and not

869
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,879
Speaker 1: a violation of laws, rules or statutes. And I think

870
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: that has to be looked at very seriously. I think

871
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: you're right in a lot of different ways. All right,

872
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 1: Jay Sekulo, thanks for being with us. We'll see you

873
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 1: tonight on Hannity. We'll have more on this thread of

874
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:57,799
Speaker 1: North Korea, more on the deep state, more of the

875
00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: politics of the day. Will also get your calls in,

876
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,719
Speaker 1: and when we get back at the bottom of the hour,

877
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna check in with Patrick J. Buchannan see what

878
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 1: he thinks of all this. And your call is coming

879
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: up straight ahead. This is the Sean Hannity Show, holding

880
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:28,240
Speaker 1: them accountable. Sean gets the answers no one else does.

881
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:34,279
Speaker 1: America deserves and know the truth about Congress. My question is,

882
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 1: does that mean that there are no red lawns that

883
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,439
Speaker 1: Mueller or any Special Council can investigate under the terms

884
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,240
Speaker 1: of your order anything he finds, Chris. The Special Council

885
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,280
Speaker 1: is subject of the rules and regulations of the Department

886
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,399
Speaker 1: of Justice, and we don't engage in fishing expeditions. Now,

887
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: that order that you read, that doesn't detail specifically who

888
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,919
Speaker 1: may be the subject in investigation because we don't reveal

889
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: that publicly. But Bobby Mueller understands, and I understand, and uh,

890
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: the specific scope of the investigation. And so, no, it's

891
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: not a fishing expedition. I understand, it's not a fishing

892
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,360
Speaker 1: the expedition. But you say, any matters that arose or

893
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 1: may arise directly from the investigation in the course of

894
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 1: his investigation of the issues that he is looking at,

895
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 1: if he finds evidence of a crime, can he look

896
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: at that well, Chris, if he finds evidence of a crime,

897
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: that's within the scope of what Director Miller and I

898
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 1: have agreed is the appropriate scope of his investigation that

899
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,439
Speaker 1: he can If it's something outside that scope, he needs

900
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,839
Speaker 1: to come to the Acting Attorney General at this time

901
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,520
Speaker 1: me for permission to expand his investigation. But we don't

902
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:35,839
Speaker 1: talk about that publicly. And so the speculation you've seen

903
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 1: in the news media. That's not anything that I've said.

904
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: It's not anything Director Mueller said. We don't know who's

905
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 1: saying or who credible, how credible those sources. People ask

906
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: about this, of course, because you have ten Star and

907
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 1: Whitewater and began with a failed real estate deal in

908
00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:56,880
Speaker 1: Arkansas and ended up with Monica Lewinsky to to to expand,

909
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 1: he would need to get approval from you to expand

910
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: the nature of the investigation. That's correct, just as did

911
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: ken Starr. You know, ken Starr received an expansion I

912
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: believe was initiated by the Department of Justice by Janet

913
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: Reno that resulted in that investigation. All right, that was

914
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: Chris Wallace and uh Rod Rosenstein. And you know, of

915
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: course this is mission creep, investigative creep, everything that I

916
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: told you it would end up being. And of course,

917
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 1: so a lot of this is now the deep state.

918
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 1: There's so much correction and and how is he not

919
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,760
Speaker 1: recusing himself? If if you start at Russia Trump collusion,

920
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 1: you moved to finances, then you moved to obstruction as

921
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: relates to James Comey. Then you're moving into other issues,

922
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 1: and then then all of a sudden, you're now in

923
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 1: conflict as Rod Rosenstein is, because Rod Rosenstein wrote a

924
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 1: memo that Trump should fire James Comey. It's it is

925
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: just the biggest cluster I've ever seen. On top of

926
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: the eight of the sixteen people that Robert Muller put

927
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 1: on his team have donated to Obama or Clinton or Democrats,

928
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: and none have donated in any way to any Republican.

929
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 1: And he even hired one of Hillary Clinton's attorneys. My

930
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 1: friend Pat Buchanna with a provocative column out today after

931
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: the Coop What then, anyway, how are you, sir? During

932
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: fine sean? How are you? I got to talk to

933
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 1: you about this, and I've got to talk to you

934
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:16,680
Speaker 1: about North Korea. Uh, let's start with this, Let's start

935
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: with Rosenstein. Let's start with investigative creep. Well, I think

936
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: what's happened is when the Chris Wallace did a good

937
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 1: job at mushy verbiage on where they can go. I

938
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: think it's really a carte blanche to Muller and these folks.

939
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 1: And he's not hiring these folks because he wants to

940
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:39,479
Speaker 1: find out if Donald Trump communicated with Wiki leaks. They're

941
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,919
Speaker 1: doing this they're going into the finances, They'll go into

942
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 1: Trump's finances, any connections with the Russians that will require

943
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 1: tax returns and going back and the rest of it.

944
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: And then you come into any other mistakes, I think

945
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: or something, and I think it's this is really a

946
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 1: hostile organism inside the executive branch, targeted primarily on the

947
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: White House and the resident that is going to grow

948
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: and grow and grow. And I've never known one of

949
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 1: these special prosecutors special prosecution sean to go home without

950
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 1: taking some scalps. Well, you even said the smell of

951
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 1: blood is in the nostrils of the sewer and swamp

952
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 1: that's known as Washington d C. I think you're right.

953
00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,280
Speaker 1: I was happy to see the Attorney General, Jeff Sessions

954
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 1: talk about there's basically been a deep state leak a day.

955
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 1: Every one of them are illegal. Now think about how

956
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: deep this goes. Pat You've now got the General Council

957
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:33,799
Speaker 1: of the FBI being investigated for intelligent leaks. You've got

958
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,839
Speaker 1: James Comey, the FBI director, purposefully leaking to the New

959
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:40,120
Speaker 1: York Times government information, some of it were told classified

960
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: to get the Special Council, who ends up being his friend.

961
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 1: Then you've got Susan Rice. Then you've got how is

962
00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 1: it possible for Samantha Power, the UN ambassador to unmask

963
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 1: hundreds of Trump people during the last year of this

964
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: campaign or in the election year, and then Susan Rice,

965
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 1: Ben Rhodes, uh, Samantha the Power. And it looks like

966
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 1: Brennan and Clapper may have questions to answer as well.

967
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,879
Speaker 1: I mean, this is as as much of a coup,

968
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: to use your word, as anything I've seen, you know,

969
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: I agree, Shawn, And it needs to be investigations if

970
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 1: they can, if they can connect the dots. What it

971
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:19,280
Speaker 1: looks like is that they took all of these phone

972
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: calls trans of Trump people with Russians or in any

973
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: way transcribe them, then unmasked the Trump people, and then

974
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 1: they took these uh, these transcriptions, and they sent them

975
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 1: out to all seventeen intelligence agencies. I don't know whether

976
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 1: it was on the order of Susan Rice or the

977
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 1: President of the United States, but clearly it seems designed

978
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 1: to leave all these secrets or these these revelations and

979
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 1: have them leaked constantly. As soon as the President of

980
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:52,640
Speaker 1: the United States takes office, you take that operation ongoing

981
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:55,920
Speaker 1: with the deep State doing the leaks and the hostile

982
00:54:56,000 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: media publishing the leaks and hammering, hammering the president United

983
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 1: States every which way every day. And you've got this

984
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,760
Speaker 1: new powerful organism that is growing inside the White House

985
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,759
Speaker 1: or inside the administration and under the Justice Department with

986
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 1: enormous freedom to rome that's moving on the White House

987
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:20,160
Speaker 1: and moving on Trump campaign association and Trump family and

988
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 1: Trump himself. I mean, the writing is on the wall here, Sean.

989
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 1: And what I wrote in that column is, look, if

990
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,800
Speaker 1: they succeed in doing what was almost done with Clinton,

991
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,880
Speaker 1: was done with Nixon and bringing down a president, Uh,

992
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 1: what's the reaction going to be as the American people?

993
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 1: And I think it will be utter disillusionment with democracy.

994
00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 1: The folks out there in Middle America. We gave it

995
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,279
Speaker 1: everything we could, and we elected the man and they

996
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: threw him out, and the deep state that we wanted

997
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 1: to throw out took over House to the president we

998
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: elected and the Committee. You know, I don't even want

999
00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:56,759
Speaker 1: to think of the consequences of that. I don't want

1000
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 1: to if we had divided now, I can't imagine how

1001
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 1: how betrayed people are gonna feel, and how angry and

1002
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,279
Speaker 1: how divided. This country is gonna be I can't even

1003
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: imagine this. Well, I think that I agree with you,

1004
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,319
Speaker 1: and I don't know how we would come together after that,

1005
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,759
Speaker 1: because I think the reaction in Middle America among a

1006
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: lot of us who support him, would would not be

1007
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna you know, take up arms or

1008
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: something like that, would be disillusionment to spare cynicism. Probably

1009
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,959
Speaker 1: see States wants to succeed from the Union, they'll feel

1010
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,919
Speaker 1: like America, you know, is it's the Republic has gone. Well,

1011
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,560
Speaker 1: that's exactly right. They said that that we are. Look,

1012
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: we're just being led. We're being led with the fraud.

1013
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 1: When we want we won and then they overturned our victory.

1014
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they're trying to do. Um. I know,

1015
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: we cannot ignore what's happening in North Korea. Now. The

1016
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: one good piece of news fifteen to zero, and that

1017
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 1: includes Russia and China, these sanctions against North Korea. Okay,

1018
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,760
Speaker 1: that's all fine and good, but here's the bad news.

1019
00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 1: The bad news is Bill Clinton allowed this lunatic, this

1020
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 1: and his father to get nuclear weapons. Now we're seeing

1021
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,920
Speaker 1: North Korea saber rattling and firing. I c b ms

1022
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 1: that we're told can reach New York and Boston. They're

1023
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:12,800
Speaker 1: now making, according to the Washington Post, missile ready nuclear weapons,

1024
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:16,320
Speaker 1: which is bad. And they have now the ability to

1025
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 1: mount the nuclear warhead on an I C b M

1026
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 1: now pat short of sending in a hit squad and

1027
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 1: taking this guy out, which both you and I know

1028
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 1: is next to him possible. I don't see any good

1029
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 1: option here because if you try to take out this

1030
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,200
Speaker 1: guy's nuclear sights, and this should be a a warning

1031
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 1: to everybody about the mulas in Iran. Once they have

1032
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons, your options are limited. You try and take

1033
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:40,919
Speaker 1: out the nuclear sights. How do we know he doesn't

1034
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,080
Speaker 1: launch against Seoul, South Korea? How do we know it

1035
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 1: doesn't launch against Japan. How do we know he doesn't

1036
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 1: even launch against China? For crying out loud, He's such

1037
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: a lunatic. There's no good options in Hannity's playbook. What

1038
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: do you have? I think you're you're pretty much correct.

1039
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,439
Speaker 1: I think I don't think he's at the point where

1040
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 1: he can mount this miniaturized nuclear weapon on top of

1041
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 1: a missile and targeted on a city in the United States.

1042
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: Both the last two ib I CBM tests the nuclear

1043
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: the nose cone collapsed, they broke in book collapsed apart

1044
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 1: when re entry, But there's no doubt he's headed that way. Sean. Secondly,

1045
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,800
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I don't think the Chinese and

1046
00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: universal sanctions fifteen to zero. I don't think that's going

1047
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: to get any movement in time. I think Kim Jong

1048
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:26,920
Speaker 1: on is determined this. His only way to deter the

1049
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 1: Americans and prevent any kind of American attack on him

1050
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 1: is to be able to hit the United States with

1051
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,040
Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon, and that's where he's gone, and he's

1052
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 1: not going to be dissuaded. And he probably has right

1053
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 1: now the ability and a scud missile to put a

1054
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon on South Korea. So you're very very close

1055
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 1: to the point where the only option is military or

1056
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 1: no option. My view is basically this, uh. I think

1057
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:57,320
Speaker 1: we ought to consider, frankly um allowing South if he

1058
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 1: continues moving this way, allowing so of Korean Japan to

1059
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 1: develop their own nuclear weapons with short range missiles. But

1060
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,840
Speaker 1: we already have with him. When you really think deeply

1061
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,200
Speaker 1: about it, he knows mutually a short destruction exists. It

1062
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: does whether Japan has it or South Korea has it,

1063
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: and I've thought through this a lot. You know, the

1064
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 1: only thing that I think we can hope for is

1065
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 1: that their agents inside that can get close to them.

1066
00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 1: That's the best case scenario. Once I mean, whoever takes

1067
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 1: over from him, true, you don't know, and they're going

1068
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 1: to have the missile Sean and Ye and if you

1069
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:35,120
Speaker 1: take him out or you fail, or you take him out,

1070
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,360
Speaker 1: there's no guarantee that they won't launch all those conventional weapons.

1071
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 1: They had at one point eleven thousand artillery pieces and

1072
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 1: missile emplacements on the d m Z. You know what,

1073
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm afraid Pat Buchannon, and We've been friends a long time.

1074
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 1: We've had arguments over the years, but overall we have

1075
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 1: a lot of agreement. You know what I'm afraid of.

1076
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: I am afraid that North Korea now will define the

1077
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 1: Trump presidency. And I'm beginning to think almost it's a certainty.

1078
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Well if only way you would define it I think

1079
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 1: is I think it's Trump takes us to war against

1080
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 1: North Korea. I think there's real reluctance in the military

1081
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,920
Speaker 1: and the Pentagon to do that in the absence of

1082
01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:15,800
Speaker 1: an absolute proof that is putting nuclear warheads on top

1083
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: of missiles and emplacing them to to target the United

1084
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: States of America right there, that's very scary, no good option.

1085
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: And as we continue, Patrick J. Buchanan is with us,

1086
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: we're talking about the deep state talking about really no

1087
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: good options in North Korea. So the threshold for Pat

1088
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,480
Speaker 1: Buchannon if this these reports are true, which we have

1089
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 1: no reason to believe they're not, even though it comes

1090
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,320
Speaker 1: from the Washington Polists'm always skeptical, Pet, But if North

1091
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 1: North Korea is now making missile ready nuclear weapons, in

1092
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 1: other words, that they can now mount a nuclear warhead

1093
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 1: on an I C b M, and we're told the

1094
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 1: I C b ms can reach the continental US even

1095
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,840
Speaker 1: as far as New York City in Boston, Massachusetts, that

1096
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:02,800
Speaker 1: it's the tipping point for you, Well, yeah, I don't

1097
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,560
Speaker 1: know that you can. I mean, if you can tolerate that,

1098
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 1: I think that they can hit your country, I mean

1099
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 1: I would start taking my thought of this Shan is

1100
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 1: basically look, I would have been years ago pulled the

1101
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 1: American troops out of Korea off the d m Z

1102
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 1: allow South Korea if the North builds a nuclear weapon,

1103
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: to build its own nuclear weapon and to have missiles

1104
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:29,680
Speaker 1: capable of reaching the Yalu River, moved our nuclear weapons

1105
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 1: on two ships are off shore, maintain the alliance with

1106
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 1: South Korea, and told the you know, the North Koreans, Uh,

1107
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, if they launched one of these missiles, are

1108
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 1: going to annihilate the country. And uh, I think, I

1109
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 1: think we're going to get there. But I frankly I

1110
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 1: would not start a war. I mean, we have lived

1111
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,400
Speaker 1: under I hate to say it, we had we had

1112
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 1: a thousand Soviet nuclear weapons could hit the United States

1113
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,480
Speaker 1: at one point sean and we didn't go to war.

1114
01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:59,360
Speaker 1: And thank the Lord, Jack Kennedy was a cool, calm

1115
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 1: customer in missile crisis. Well, not disagreeing in any way.

1116
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 1: I think I just don't know about the mental stability here.

1117
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 1: I mean, as nuts as Krushchev was, and as nuts

1118
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 1: as former Soviet Union leaders were, they seem to understand

1119
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 1: mutually a short destruction. I'm not sure this lunatic understands it.

1120
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I do think I think he's

1121
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 1: very rationally. What do you do? What do you say?

1122
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:23,720
Speaker 1: What gives you the indication he's rational? I love you

1123
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: to death, but he doesn't seem it to me. Helped

1124
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: me out. Past man. He uses our killery pieces to

1125
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 1: kill us, to kill members of his family, but he's rational,

1126
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 1: that's a really nice quality killing marginal or a missile

1127
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 1: that can hit the United States. He has a real

1128
01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 1: turn to turn against us doing to Pinyang what we

1129
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 1: did during nineteen fifty to fifty three under MacArthur in

1130
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: the Successor General, which was smashed Pinyang with more bombs

1131
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:53,280
Speaker 1: than we dropped in World War Two. He is deeply

1132
01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 1: worried about the United States, these these maneuvers were having

1133
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 1: in the US and Korea, that they may be proud

1134
01:02:59,840 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 1: one day to a dash across that border to finish

1135
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 1: him off in the one thing he's got that can

1136
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 1: deter that is the ability to strike the United States

1137
01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 1: with a nuclear missile. And he ain't going to give

1138
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,640
Speaker 1: that up, and he doesn't think we will attack him

1139
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:16,640
Speaker 1: to prevent him from getting that, And that's why he's

1140
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:20,080
Speaker 1: pursuing it, and that's why he's not a madman. He's

1141
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 1: an evil man, but he's not mad and he's not stupid. Well,

1142
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:27,880
Speaker 1: I hope you're listen. I think he's mad, and I

1143
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 1: don't see any I don't get any sense he represents

1144
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 1: everything evil in our time. Even you're right, he's killing

1145
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 1: his own, his own family, and he reminds me of

1146
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: a lot of destre that there are military men in

1147
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 1: North Korea who if he actually said let's gear up

1148
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,560
Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon and fired at the United States one

1149
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: of their bases, saying in on Okinawa or something, I'm

1150
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 1: sure some of those military men would say, he ain't

1151
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 1: going to do that and get us blown to Kingdom

1152
01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 1: come and our families and our country and everything else,

1153
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: because the Americans will counter attire with nuclear weapons and

1154
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,040
Speaker 1: they would step in an act against him. I would

1155
01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 1: think we appreciate that Patrick J. Buchannon has always eight

1156
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,280
Speaker 1: hundred nine one, Shawn will lot more in the North

1157
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 1: Korea and threat and how do you handle this very dark,

1158
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 1: bad situation. Also, we'll have our news round up information overload,

1159
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 1: the latest on the deep state, these NonStop investigations and

1160
01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:24,720
Speaker 1: how they're trying to take the president out and much

1161
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,440
Speaker 1: much more in this busy breaking news edition of The

1162
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:29,920
Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Straight Ahead. You know, this is a

1163
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,800
Speaker 1: president who has never ever been capable of being shamed

1164
01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 1: for hypocrisy, self contradictions, any of that. So it's really

1165
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 1: not surprising. It fits this sort of pattern of uh,

1166
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,440
Speaker 1: you know, Trump being I've called him at times a

1167
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:43,400
Speaker 1: sort of a goldfish in the sense that he seems

1168
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,440
Speaker 1: to forget what happened ten seconds before. He's always in

1169
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: the moment, just sort of reacting um and trying to

1170
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:51,880
Speaker 1: get reactions, and he doesn't really worry about whether or

1171
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 1: not to contradict something he said before UM or a

1172
01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:59,360
Speaker 1: broader point. I don't like criminal investigations to start on

1173
01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: the hoping that you have the target. Maybe you will

1174
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,840
Speaker 1: find the crime, Maybe we'll find a statute. If we

1175
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 1: can't find the statute, will stretch the statute to fit

1176
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 1: the person. That sounds like the Renty Barrier and Joseph Stalin.

1177
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,120
Speaker 1: Show me the man and I'll find you the crime.

1178
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to ever see that come to him.

1179
01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:20,560
Speaker 1: That's Alan Dershowitz, of all people who have not always

1180
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:24,320
Speaker 1: agreed with politically, but he's actually been really amazing on

1181
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 1: how abusive these special counsels can be, especially in light

1182
01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: of all of the conflicts as it relates to Robert Mueller,

1183
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:34,520
Speaker 1: all of the conflicts he's hiring. What people that donate

1184
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:39,360
Speaker 1: to Clinton Obama Democrats, even Hillary's attorney, one person with

1185
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 1: ethical issues eight of them eight that have not donated

1186
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:45,439
Speaker 1: to anybody, so no Republican donors. And then of course

1187
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 1: Robert Muller, he gets at the job because his best

1188
01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:50,920
Speaker 1: friend James Comey actually leads to The New York Times

1189
01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:54,960
Speaker 1: and James call me using government information, some confidential information.

1190
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 1: On top of that, now the General Council, the FBI

1191
01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 1: is now being investigated for potential leaking. Add add to that,

1192
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: what do we know Ben Rhodes being investigated for unmasking leaking,

1193
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:11,240
Speaker 1: Susan Rice unmasking leaking investigation, Samantha Power. Really, why would

1194
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 1: the un ambassador be unmasking in the year twenty six?

1195
01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:18,760
Speaker 1: Hundreds of people associated with the Trump campaign and others.

1196
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,080
Speaker 1: It's beyond the pale, all right? Joining US now News

Speaker 1: of research at Bustle. Whatever that means, what is Bustle

1203
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 1: sounds like hustle, bustle? What is that? What is what

1204
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:48,760
Speaker 1: is bustle? It's the feminist epicenter of the millennial generation. Well,

1205
01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 1: the feminist epicenter of the millennial generation. You know what

1206
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:54,960
Speaker 1: I mean? I just made that up. That's not our

1207
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,520
Speaker 1: official Taglie know, Jeffrey Lord, No, wonder I didn't know.

1208
01:06:57,560 --> 01:06:59,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so close to the millennial generation of

1209
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 1: this point in my life. I'm like, really, I'm wondering.

1210
01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:07,360
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if Jessica works at Google. I'm holder if

1211
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 1: she word Yeah, did you see that? Oh my god,

1212
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:12,440
Speaker 1: what a nightmare, jeff Why don't you explain it to

1213
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,080
Speaker 1: our audience could get up to speed. Yeah, I mean,

1214
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:20,080
Speaker 1: Google apparently prides itself on diversity and tolerance, etcetera. So

1215
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:24,320
Speaker 1: some Google employee wrote a memo that basically said that

1216
01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 1: conservatives feel like they're in the closet and they're discriminated against,

1217
01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,760
Speaker 1: and then put out his views on women in tech

1218
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 1: and all this sort of thing. So the memo went viable,

1219
01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:38,440
Speaker 1: and the firm that private university intolerance of different points

1220
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:42,360
Speaker 1: of view is immediately fired him. Oh my god, So well,

1221
01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:45,000
Speaker 1: we've known this forever. How many years have we we

1222
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:48,720
Speaker 1: talked about this. I mean, it's hilarious, there's no time.

1223
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:52,040
Speaker 1: I mean we'll laugh at this, but this is serious stuff.

1224
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:55,720
Speaker 1: And you know what's being done to you this minute,

1225
01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 1: what is being done to all kinds of people all

1226
01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 1: across the board. And it frankly doesn't make any difference

1227
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:03,960
Speaker 1: other than whether their profile is high or not, whether

1228
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 1: it's being done to people on television and radio, whether

1229
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,560
Speaker 1: it's being done in universities across the country, whether it's

1230
01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 1: being done in Google. This is outright fascism. And you know,

1231
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,640
Speaker 1: until weeks enough people speak up and stop this in

1232
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:18,839
Speaker 1: its tracks, this kind of thing is going to continue

1233
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:22,280
Speaker 1: in it's deadly well. I went over earlier today. I mean,

1234
01:08:22,320 --> 01:08:27,160
Speaker 1: you've got this David brock Leak of the American Bridge Playbook,

1235
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:31,559
Speaker 1: which describes what is a well orchestrated plan to impeach

1236
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:34,640
Speaker 1: the President of the United States. This was discovered and

1237
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:36,760
Speaker 1: I think printed by the Free Beacon, and it goes

1238
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 1: on page after page after page, the coordination media matters,

1239
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 1: American Bridge crew, Share Blue and how they want to

1240
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,640
Speaker 1: a take down the president, get him impeached before he

1241
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 1: ever enters office, and delegitimize him, go after anybody that

1242
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:54,920
Speaker 1: tries to support him or legitimize him. And then of

1243
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:59,679
Speaker 1: course we see their tactics, which are boycott, attack advertisers, silence,

1244
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,280
Speaker 1: concern pervatives. You know this is their you know five

1245
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 1: run at me again, Jessica, and well, I know you

1246
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 1: disagree with me. I know that you would never support

1247
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:10,760
Speaker 1: a boycott of those programmers. I mean, I've I've given

1248
01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:14,360
Speaker 1: you tons of hours of to voice your opinions, which

1249
01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:16,200
Speaker 1: I love you to death, but I don't agree with

1250
01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:20,280
Speaker 1: chagrin of yours. And listen, it's not to the sugrin.

1251
01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 1: I can handle opposition. I just meant your your fans

1252
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:26,559
Speaker 1: don't love me that much, but it's okay. I still

1253
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:29,600
Speaker 1: love them anyway. No, I don't. I mean, obviously, I

1254
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:32,480
Speaker 1: want you to stay the er and I enjoy our discourse,

1255
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:37,280
Speaker 1: and I don't think that people should at all try

1256
01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,200
Speaker 1: to stamp out free thought. Right. Everyone has the rights

1257
01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:42,160
Speaker 1: to their opinion and to express Because the issue with

1258
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,200
Speaker 1: a Google memo, with some of what that guy wrote

1259
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 1: in there was offensive, specifically about women attack, but that

1260
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:50,200
Speaker 1: doesn't mean certainly that it doesn't have a right to exist.

1261
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:53,559
Speaker 1: It should be debated and discussed as with anything that

1262
01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 1: isn't you know, I guess putting anyone in immediate danger

1263
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,800
Speaker 1: clearly what I said about your When they on and

1264
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:05,360
Speaker 1: on and on about a strategy that their goal is to,

1265
01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 1: you know, for example, describe him as an unhinged narcissist,

1266
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:12,800
Speaker 1: or that their goal is to go out there and

1267
01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 1: impeach the president of the United States. That do they

1268
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 1: not care that there are other Americans that actually like

1269
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: the president, fought for the president's win, a freely elected president,

1270
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 1: and for them to go out there and to stop

1271
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:28,800
Speaker 1: him quotes Trump will be defeated either through impeachment or

1272
01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:30,679
Speaker 1: at the ballot box. Why would they want to impeach

1273
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:33,640
Speaker 1: somebody that at that point hadn't taken office. Well, I

1274
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:36,240
Speaker 1: think that that the underlying principle of that memo and

1275
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:38,479
Speaker 1: what's going on with the resistance is that Donald Trump

1276
01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 1: is not fit to be president um and that he

1277
01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 1: is going to be a disaster for the nation over

1278
01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:44,880
Speaker 1: the next four years, not just for those who didn't

1279
01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:47,439
Speaker 1: vote for him, but for those so the the the

1280
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 1: illegal league day by day from the deep state, the

1281
01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:55,520
Speaker 1: umasking of Americans. When you have former top Obama administration

1282
01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:59,200
Speaker 1: officials now that are involved in unmasking Americans picked up

1283
01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 1: incidentally in intelligence. Hangwa, well, why would Samantha Power, un ambassador,

1284
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 1: as is reported, need to unmask hundreds of people in

1285
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:13,439
Speaker 1: an election year, and many of them Trump associates. I

1286
01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:15,519
Speaker 1: don't know, and I mean, hopefully will send out, but

1287
01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:17,880
Speaker 1: you don't seem too concerned. Hopefully we'll find out. You

1288
01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:20,920
Speaker 1: don't seem overly concerned about it. Well do you think,

1289
01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,320
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, do you think that there weren't memos?

1290
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:25,160
Speaker 1: And I'm sure that we could find that about how

1291
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:27,640
Speaker 1: to take down Barack Obama, how to discredit him, how

1292
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: to go after Hillary Clinton? What's to talk about? To

1293
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:33,200
Speaker 1: talk about? Oh, maybe she has Parkinson's disease to bring

1294
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:40,080
Speaker 1: up constantly when she collapsed outside the Yeah, because of exhaustion. Okay,

1295
01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 1: but I mean we shouldn't be speculating that. People don't

1296
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,360
Speaker 1: want to speculate. Well, they tried. Well wait a minute,

1297
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:48,280
Speaker 1: I mean she passed out before everybody the whole world

1298
01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:50,599
Speaker 1: could see. Is it not fair to question what made

1299
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 1: her pass out before that? Okay? But not exactly known

1300
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:57,120
Speaker 1: for telling the truth, Jeffrey, I mean, I think the

1301
01:11:57,160 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 1: fact that we question their veracity is frankly par for

1302
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:03,640
Speaker 1: the course. Well that's right, And again, son, this is

1303
01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,720
Speaker 1: the government. And what makes this frightening is what we

1304
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 1: were talking about a few seconds ago in terms of

1305
01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:11,960
Speaker 1: private groups trying to take people off the air and

1306
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,919
Speaker 1: shut down you know, for somebody Google and all of this.

1307
01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:17,799
Speaker 1: This is that version of that done by the government

1308
01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 1: with power. I mean, what in the world is the

1309
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 1: United Nations ambassador doing looking at anybody like this? This

1310
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 1: is ridiculous. But what they what they want to do,

1311
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:32,120
Speaker 1: which is what makes us so dangerous, is use government

1312
01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 1: power to shut down dissent or to sow what smear people,

1313
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,920
Speaker 1: whether it's Donald Trump or anybody else. This is what's

1314
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 1: dangerous about it. And it's a very serious thing. And

1315
01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 1: I would certainly hope. I mean, I'm no fan of

1316
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:47,720
Speaker 1: special prosecutors, but if we're going to have one, then

1317
01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:52,320
Speaker 1: we ought to have one who starts looking into this question.

1318
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:56,160
Speaker 1: Just throwing it out there about boycotts, because obviously there's

1319
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:59,639
Speaker 1: a long history of boycotts bringing out bringing about a

1320
01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:02,599
Speaker 1: good change, right like during the civil rights movement, right

1321
01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:06,800
Speaker 1: that people shouldn't go to establishments that don't allow black people, right,

1322
01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:12,520
Speaker 1: I despise as Jeffrey does any discrimination at all. Well, absolutely,

1323
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: I mean I was all for that. I mean, that's

1324
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:16,600
Speaker 1: that's fine. If you want to go out there and

1325
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 1: publicly demonstrate, good Lord. When I was in college, I

1326
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 1: demonstrated a time or two. I mean, go to it,

1327
01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:25,200
Speaker 1: have at it. But trying to shut people off the air,

1328
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,960
Speaker 1: using your your missing ower to to shut down people

1329
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:32,400
Speaker 1: and to ruin their reputations, that is beyond the pale. No,

1330
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:34,800
Speaker 1: I'm not missing that. And obviously it was Caroline, it

1331
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:36,640
Speaker 1: was happening a Rachel matt I as well, and I

1332
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:38,960
Speaker 1: know Sean talked about that. What I'm saying is that,

1333
01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:42,080
Speaker 1: But Sean, here's the difference. This is important. The difference

1334
01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 1: between Hannity and Mattow is Hannity said, let everybody have

1335
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,280
Speaker 1: freedom of speech. What Hannity said is stop trying to

1336
01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:52,519
Speaker 1: silence voices. What Hannity has done over the course of

1337
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:56,120
Speaker 1: his long career is he hasn't supported boycott's because it's

1338
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:59,880
Speaker 1: a roundabout way of getting shows canceled. In this piece me,

1339
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 1: media matters. Literally, when you you just read through it,

1340
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 1: I don't think you've taken the time, but you really

1341
01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:07,639
Speaker 1: ought to read through it because they actually brag about

1342
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:13,880
Speaker 1: their success in hurting conservatives and and literally getting it says,

1343
01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:16,760
Speaker 1: over the years, Media Matters has one or assisted in

1344
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:20,040
Speaker 1: a number of tangible victories from getting Glenn Beck off

1345
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:25,519
Speaker 1: of cable news exactly. John Hannity supports Rachel Maddow's right

1346
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 1: to express any conspiracy theory she wants, which he does

1347
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,479
Speaker 1: every night. I don't care, I don't watch it. But

1348
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 1: on one thing here that makes this so particularly dangerous.

1349
01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm looking right this minute, and I've started to read

1350
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:40,759
Speaker 1: what you're talking about there this handbook, but I'm looking

1351
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:43,680
Speaker 1: right this minute at a story for Media Matters, and

1352
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 1: what is the headline. CNN's voting rights coverage demonstrates its

1353
01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:52,280
Speaker 1: Trumps sycophant problem. In other words, they're now turning on CNN, who,

1354
01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 1: you know, according to the popular deal, is liberal. What's

1355
01:14:57,320 --> 01:14:59,720
Speaker 1: going to happen here? But by the way, if they

1356
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:02,680
Speaker 1: think CNN's they're going to go after their friends. If

1357
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:05,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't for you, it would be the Rachel Mattow

1358
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:07,840
Speaker 1: network over there. And I say that now that you

1359
01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:12,720
Speaker 1: lost what's her name, yeah, I mean now she's much

1360
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:14,759
Speaker 1: good for her. I mean there's only so much abuse

1361
01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:17,800
Speaker 1: you can take from David Axel rod And and Van

1362
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:21,680
Speaker 1: Jones and Paul Begala. I don't know how I I

1363
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,720
Speaker 1: don't know how much you get paid. But it's not enough, Jeffrey,

1364
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:28,840
Speaker 1: it's not it's like combat pay. I have a great

1365
01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:31,519
Speaker 1: time over there, but you know it is. It is

1366
01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:33,479
Speaker 1: amazing to me. I mean, and this is, of course,

1367
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:36,559
Speaker 1: the eternal lesson of people on the left and their

1368
01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:40,400
Speaker 1: insistence on going after people, is that once they once

1369
01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:42,839
Speaker 1: they get their enemies, then they turn it on themselves.

1370
01:15:42,880 --> 01:15:45,000
Speaker 1: Good lord, this was going on in the French Revolution.

1371
01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:47,559
Speaker 1: All right, stay right there, we gotta take a quick break.

1372
01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:50,720
Speaker 1: Eight nine one. Shawn told free telephone number. You want

1373
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:56,200

1375
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 1: ing for one Sean. By the way, the folks over

1376
01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:04,160
Speaker 1: at CNN don't get mad that I'm poking at them

1377
01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:06,639
Speaker 1: when you're on the show, because I'm actually promoting them

1378
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:09,120
Speaker 1: to fifty million people. They should be happy that I

1379
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:10,880
Speaker 1: let them know. You're a friend of mine, and I'm

1380
01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:14,200
Speaker 1: not gonna I will not back down from my friendship,

1381
01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:17,479
Speaker 1: which which all of your friends know and love before

1382
01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:22,600
Speaker 1: and uh, there are people over network that hate you.

1383
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:25,720
Speaker 1: Know that there are people over at that network that

1384
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,400
Speaker 1: don't like me. Well, I know, but I will I

1385
01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:31,719
Speaker 1: will say this, Sean, that when the subject is relevant,

1386
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:35,600
Speaker 1: I certainly have mentioned you favorably on air, and I

1387
01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:38,280
Speaker 1: am not censored. Well that no, And by the way,

1388
01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:40,760
Speaker 1: that's all credit to you, and and we have a deep,

1389
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 1: abiding friendship. And and I'll be honest, even Jessica, who

1390
01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 1: I disagree with, is such a nice person. I find

1391
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:47,720
Speaker 1: it very hard to be mean to her. And there

1392
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:51,920
Speaker 1: are times to infuriate. For this part of the conversation

1393
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,920
Speaker 1: about your reputation, Sean, I obviously people and you know

1394
01:16:55,960 --> 01:17:00,800
Speaker 1: I hang in liberal circles, have views about were views.

1395
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 1: But I have not heard one person actually say that

1396
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:07,639
Speaker 1: you aren't nothing but an incredibly nice guy. And people

1397
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:09,720
Speaker 1: are always asking you that too. They're like, oh, I

1398
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:14,840
Speaker 1: heard Sean Hannon. He's actually super amazingly Yeah. I hate that. No, no, no,

1399
01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,320
Speaker 1: that's ruining my reputation. I want to be viewed as

1400
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:20,920
Speaker 1: mean and horrible. I can't. I can't do it, and

1401
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:24,200
Speaker 1: I do it well. The only thing I want is

1402
01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:26,240
Speaker 1: this you know what's sad about all these attacks on

1403
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:29,160
Speaker 1: our president. This is the saddest thing is that the

1404
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:31,960
Speaker 1: forgotten men and women, and you should agree with this, Jessica,

1405
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 1: the ones in poverty, on food stamps, the one out

1406
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 1: of the ones out of the labor force, the ones

1407
01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:39,759
Speaker 1: that can buy their first home. I was so happy

1408
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:41,639
Speaker 1: when I was in my thirties and I could buy

1409
01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,280
Speaker 1: my first house. I loved it. I've had a passion

1410
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:46,960
Speaker 1: for it. I wish I kept it, and I got

1411
01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:49,320
Speaker 1: to be honest, I feel that was my life, that

1412
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:51,960
Speaker 1: was my background, that's who I am, and those opportunities

1413
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:54,080
Speaker 1: are now fewer and far between, and they won't let

1414
01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:57,640
Speaker 1: this president fix it. That's a sad part. One of

1415
01:17:57,640 --> 01:17:59,640
Speaker 1: the things that strikes me. I mean, you've doubtless had

1416
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,080
Speaker 1: the six fars since you've been on television for so long,

1417
01:18:02,120 --> 01:18:04,760
Speaker 1: but it's relatively new for me. And as I walk

1418
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,080
Speaker 1: along the streets of Manhattan, when I'm in New York,

1419
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:09,799
Speaker 1: or or no matter where I am, I get stopped

1420
01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:13,360
Speaker 1: by people. They're clearly working folks, and they are thanking

1421
01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,880
Speaker 1: me for standing up for the president because they believe

1422
01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:19,840
Speaker 1: clearly that he is standing up for them and they

1423
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:21,840
Speaker 1: don't want, you know, they don't want me in that case,

1424
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:23,920
Speaker 1: to back down, but they don't want him to back down.

1425
01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:26,400
Speaker 1: And I think that is so significant. These are the

1426
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 1: people who elected him, and uh, they're gonna stick with him. Yeah.

1427
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: Well you can see that in West Virginia. And if anything,

1428
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:35,680
Speaker 1: I think they're creating such a backlash. And the Democratic

1429
01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,559
Speaker 1: Party is nothing but a new bumper sticker in a

1430
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:41,599
Speaker 1: new way or a better way, whatever that is, and

1431
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:44,760
Speaker 1: a a platitude. But it's not an agenda to win

1432
01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:47,080
Speaker 1: on that. You just hate one person. That's that's not

1433
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,479
Speaker 1: going to help the life of anybody. So I think

1434
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:51,800
Speaker 1: the Democrats too are in disarray and they've got their

1435
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:53,720
Speaker 1: own issues to deal with. Yeah, that's the story that

1436
01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 1: goes untold, I think here with all the Trump coverage. Yeah,

1437
01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:00,320
Speaker 1: he wrote a not at about this for Files on

1438
01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:04,280
Speaker 1: Friday exactly calling out, yeah, check out, calling out the

1439
01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,960
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders wing of the party for going after Kamala

1440
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,519
Speaker 1: Harris and Corey Booker. And they're going to do exactly

1441
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 1: what they did uh to Hillary last time, and we

1442
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:16,760
Speaker 1: will remain deeply divided, which is problematic. Um, But to

1443
01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:19,640
Speaker 1: your point about the everyday man, Yeah, Trump support. We

1444
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:21,640
Speaker 1: saw that poll showed in the counties he one, He's

1445
01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 1: still around fIF But the new CNN numbers from this

1446
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:29,080
Speaker 1: week that shows that his support is depressed within his

1447
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:34,160
Speaker 1: key backers, right of those who strongly favor Um is drinking,

1448
01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:37,280
Speaker 1: and amongst Republican voters generally. So I don't know, I

1449
01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:40,200
Speaker 1: mean as approval, I think no, I don't think so.

1450
01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:43,519
Speaker 1: It's really the I think the Republican Party is in

1451
01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:46,439
Speaker 1: far bigger trouble than anything. Donald Trump at least has

1452
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:49,240
Speaker 1: an identity and agenda, and he's fighting. Republicans are weak

1453
01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:51,760
Speaker 1: and pathetic and they're doing nothing. All right, I gotta

1454
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:53,479
Speaker 1: let you both go. Thank you when we come back,

1455
01:19:53,479 --> 01:20:03,400
Speaker 1: wide open, telephone, straight ahead. We don't do fake news news.

1456
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:07,120
Speaker 1: We want the truth and we're gonna get it. What

1457
01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:13,160
Speaker 1: happened with uranium one? Thirty three thousand Hillary emails gone

1458
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:17,559
Speaker 1: by using bleach bit? What about Susan Rice Ben Rhodes,

1459
01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 1: Samantha Power unmasking innocent people? And don't forget Loretta Lynch

1460
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:27,000
Speaker 1: and her tarmac meeting. Was it a cover up? Her

1461
01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 1: instruction to James called me just call it a matter.

1462
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:36,959
Speaker 1: Then there's Cally leaking classified information to the New York Times.

1463
01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 1: We won't stop until we get the answers, and we'll

1464
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:46,840
Speaker 1: bring them right to you. Sewan annity is on right now,

1465
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 1: really scary North Korea threatening nuclear retaliation, and you know,

1466
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,040
Speaker 1: beyond the sanctions, which I thought was a big win,

1467
01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:57,800
Speaker 1: not only for the president, but you're beginning now even

1468
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:01,160
Speaker 1: China and it was a fifth teamed a zero vote,

1469
01:21:01,760 --> 01:21:06,120
Speaker 1: and even Russia are now aligned. And with this new

1470
01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:10,120
Speaker 1: information today that North Korea can now mount a nuclear

1471
01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:14,280
Speaker 1: warhead and on an ICBM, that is beyond frightening. In

1472
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:18,559
Speaker 1: other words, North Korea is now making missile ready nuclear weapons,

1473
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:21,320
Speaker 1: in other words, ready to roll, in other words, ready

1474
01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:24,840
Speaker 1: to be fired. Now we were told, and I think

1475
01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:29,719
Speaker 1: this is an abject lesson that you cannot trust radical

1476
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:32,680
Speaker 1: mad men with their promises, and there's no amount of

1477
01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:36,400
Speaker 1: money or bribery that is going to prevent them from

1478
01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:39,240
Speaker 1: their pursuit of nuclear weapons. That's why the that's why

1479
01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:42,759
Speaker 1: the Iranian deal was so bad. If mos and Iran

1480
01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:46,040
Speaker 1: get nuclear weapons, we will be facing this threat like

1481
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:49,599
Speaker 1: we're facing this threat today with North Korea. Now, there's

1482
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:52,599
Speaker 1: no good option. I've been saying this all day unless

1483
01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:56,200
Speaker 1: there's somebody deep inside North Korea that sees the danger themselves,

1484
01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:59,840
Speaker 1: and if they, they risk taking this guy out. But

1485
01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:03,000
Speaker 1: even then, who gets in charge? Then who would be

1486
01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:06,800
Speaker 1: in charge of these nuclear weapons? Done with I CBM capability,

1487
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 1: perhaps they can reach New York, in Boston and the

1488
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:13,439
Speaker 1: continental United States. We were told at the time by

1489
01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 1: then President Bill Clinton, don't worry, this is not this

1490
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,800
Speaker 1: is a good deal for America. Remember this. Before I

1491
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,160
Speaker 1: take your questions, I'd like to say just a word

1492
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:24,599
Speaker 1: about the framework with North Korea that Ambassador Glucy signed

1493
01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:28,280
Speaker 1: this morning. This is a good deal for the United States.

1494
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:32,480
Speaker 1: North Korea will freeze and then dismantle its nuclear program.

1495
01:22:32,680 --> 01:22:36,080
Speaker 1: South Korea and our other allies will be better protected.

1496
01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:39,000
Speaker 1: The entire world will be safer as we slow the

1497
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:43,559
Speaker 1: spread of nuclear weapons. South Korea, with support from Japan

1498
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:46,240
Speaker 1: and other nations, will bear most of the costs of

1499
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,760
Speaker 1: providing North Korea with fuel to make up for the

1500
01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:51,600
Speaker 1: nuclear energy it is losing, and they will pay for

1501
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:54,840
Speaker 1: an alternative power system for North Korea that will allow

1502
01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:57,600
Speaker 1: them to produce electricity while making it much harder for

1503
01:22:57,640 --> 01:23:01,960
Speaker 1: them to produce nuclear weapons. The United States and international

1504
01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:05,360
Speaker 1: inspectors will carefully monitor North Korea to make sure it

1505
01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:09,639
Speaker 1: keeps its commitments only as it does so well. North

1506
01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:13,639
Speaker 1: Korea fully joined the Community of Nations. All right, as

1507
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:17,680
Speaker 1: I promise, really really scary times eight nine for one,

1508
01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 1: Shawn is our number. You want to be a part

1509
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:21,200
Speaker 1: of the program. All right, let's go to Vinny is

1510
01:23:21,240 --> 01:23:24,120
Speaker 1: a New York City listening on the all new A

1511
01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:27,040
Speaker 1: M seven ten w O R the voice of New York,

1512
01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:30,240
Speaker 1: New Jersey, Long Island. How are you, sir, Hi Sean?

1513
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:34,479
Speaker 1: How are you, Joan? I'm listening to speak with and

1514
01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:38,360
Speaker 1: watching your last night in regards to all these scandals

1515
01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:41,760
Speaker 1: that for months and almost a year and a half,

1516
01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 1: Republicans quiet no comment, not on on the radio, not

1517
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:50,360
Speaker 1: on the news talking about the scandals under the Obama administration.

1518
01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:53,960
Speaker 1: Now they do nothing to help President Trump. And now

1519
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: you're dealing with North Korea, and where are they now?

1520
01:23:57,479 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 1: They better get behind the president no matter and and

1521
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:03,960
Speaker 1: stand fast with him, because we have a madman who

1522
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 1: potentially can want a rocket at us. And and I

1523
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 1: better hear guys like McConnell and McKean and Lindsey Graham,

1524
01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:14,519
Speaker 1: and how about Collins who turned it back on the

1525
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:18,479
Speaker 1: President and mccawski. They bet to get front and center

1526
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:22,800
Speaker 1: were President Trump and and defend him and whatever acts

1527
01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:25,599
Speaker 1: and he's going to need to take against North Korea.

1528
01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,880
Speaker 1: I actually think that there's no doubt the You know,

1529
01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:32,759
Speaker 1: it's funny. I had planned a very different program today,

1530
01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:36,639
Speaker 1: but it's just, you know, when something this serious now

1531
01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:40,800
Speaker 1: confronts the country and confronts the world. And I've been

1532
01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:43,280
Speaker 1: talking about this. I even said a while back that

1533
01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm really worried that North Korea is going to define

1534
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,519
Speaker 1: the Trump presidency because I I just been watching this

1535
01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:55,439
Speaker 1: guy launch after launch after launch after launch. I'm whilst

1536
01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:58,560
Speaker 1: watching he now wants to load nuclear weapons and the submarines.

1537
01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,559
Speaker 1: We now see that he has the ability, which is

1538
01:25:02,680 --> 01:25:05,800
Speaker 1: I think the most frightening thing is that he now

1539
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:08,120
Speaker 1: has the ability to mount a nuclear weapon on a

1540
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:12,320
Speaker 1: I CBM. So what are your options? Your options are none.

1541
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:14,920
Speaker 1: You go in, you take out all the nuclear sights.

1542
01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 1: You're destroyed North Korea. North Korea will be obliterated. Does

1543
01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:22,600
Speaker 1: he launch weapons before he gets taken out? Does he

1544
01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:25,719
Speaker 1: launch at South Korea? Does he launched at the United States?

1545
01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:28,439
Speaker 1: Does he launch at China? Does he launch at Japan.

1546
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:33,240
Speaker 1: You just don't know. It's not a good situation, No,

1547
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:37,439
Speaker 1: not at all. But again, the president will take strong action.

1548
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 1: He will need world leaders to back him, and he

1549
01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:43,240
Speaker 1: will lead his own party to back him, which they

1550
01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:48,120
Speaker 1: haven't done since he's taken office with the ridiculous repealed

1551
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:53,040
Speaker 1: in the place where is the wall taxes? They've done nothing, Sean,

1552
01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:55,599
Speaker 1: and they really bet to stand behind him now because

1553
01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,120
Speaker 1: this is this is probably the most serious problem will

1554
01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:01,120
Speaker 1: still face in his in his for your presidency and

1555
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:04,719
Speaker 1: hopefully eight years. So I you know, you gotta really

1556
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:09,680
Speaker 1: here's Mike Fear. You know, I wrote this book when

1557
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 1: I wrote Deliver Us from Evil years ago. You know,

1558
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:15,840
Speaker 1: I went through a history actually spent a lot of

1559
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,439
Speaker 1: time researching and studying for that book, more than any

1560
01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 1: anything I've ever done in my life. And I made

1561
01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:23,160
Speaker 1: it my my research project. And I spent all these

1562
01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 1: hours watching you know, if you watch the History Channel,

1563
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:29,000
Speaker 1: the American Heroes Channel, and you watch the Rise of Hitler,

1564
01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 1: and you're like, how is it possible for a population

1565
01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:39,320
Speaker 1: to be indoctrinated? How is it possible for for people

1566
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:42,599
Speaker 1: to go to work and kill their fellow human beings?

1567
01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:46,400
Speaker 1: And that's what they want to do every single day.

1568
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:48,120
Speaker 1: And that's what And then you go home and what

1569
01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:49,880
Speaker 1: do you eat dinner with your own kids and your

1570
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:55,320
Speaker 1: own family. How can you have such a a mental, emotional,

1571
01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:59,920
Speaker 1: spiritual disconnect that you're dead inside? You know, that's pure eve,

1572
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:04,479
Speaker 1: full on on somebody's part, and you're participating in pure evil.

1573
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:10,439
Speaker 1: But it's happened, you know, the killing fields in Cambodia, Evil,

1574
01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:17,759
Speaker 1: Nazi Germany, fascism, stalin Russia, and in the last century alone,

1575
01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:20,479
Speaker 1: way over a hundred million human souls destroyed in the

1576
01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:22,479
Speaker 1: name of evil. And then you can look on the

1577
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:24,880
Speaker 1: micro level and then you can see, right, how does

1578
01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:28,200
Speaker 1: somebody kill an innocent person? How does somebody How does

1579
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:31,880
Speaker 1: an animal rape a woman an innocent woman? How do

1580
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,879
Speaker 1: people you know, how does how do people physically assault

1581
01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 1: old people? How do you ever harm a child? There

1582
01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:43,040
Speaker 1: is throughout human experience, evil after evil after evil. I'm

1583
01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:45,080
Speaker 1: not trying to be dark here, I'm just facing truth

1584
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:49,599
Speaker 1: and facing reality. And this is evil. Like for example,

1585
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,479
Speaker 1: we've got evil in our time, the Mulas and I

1586
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 1: ran or evil. This dictator in North Korea is evil,

1587
01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:59,600
Speaker 1: not to be trusted and unhinged you've got you know,

1588
01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:04,080
Speaker 1: rat kil is Lamist, You've got Isis, You've got al Qaeda, Bolca, Haram,

1589
01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:06,400
Speaker 1: all of these different groups. There's a lot of dark

1590
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:09,640
Speaker 1: evil in the world, so I you know. And for

1591
01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:11,799
Speaker 1: those that think, and this was the point about mentioning

1592
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:15,160
Speaker 1: the book, those that think they can't happen again, you're

1593
01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:17,920
Speaker 1: not even looking at modern history. You're not looking at

1594
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,720
Speaker 1: the last hundred years of human history. You're just you're

1595
01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,519
Speaker 1: lost and you are the the you know, look at

1596
01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:29,000
Speaker 1: nine eleven who that's human evil. It exists. It's real.

1597
01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:32,559
Speaker 1: You can't negotiate whether, you can't bribe it, you can't

1598
01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:35,519
Speaker 1: talk to it, you can't think, you know, well, they'll

1599
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,519
Speaker 1: do the right thing. They're just evil and you got

1600
01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:39,639
Speaker 1: to defeat it. And that's the only way to win.

1601
01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:42,240
Speaker 1: And where now are back is against the wall. The

1602
01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:44,799
Speaker 1: world's back is against the wall. We allowed him Madman

1603
01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 1: and his father to get nuclear weapons. Now they have them,

1604
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:51,120
Speaker 1: and now they're holding trying to hold the world hostage.

1605
01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:54,240
Speaker 1: And the options we have are few, and none of

1606
01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:58,160
Speaker 1: them are great. And the loss, the potential loss of life,

1607
01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:03,640
Speaker 1: is severe. A catastrophe that maybe gets seen once a

1608
01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:08,880
Speaker 1: generation or two generations. It's chilling, actually, and it's real anyway,

1609
01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:12,760
Speaker 1: he appreciate it. Montreal, Canada. Richard is next. Richard join

1610
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:15,120
Speaker 1: the Sean Hannity Show. Hi, Yeah, Hi Sean. This is

1611
01:29:15,200 --> 01:29:19,360
Speaker 1: very disappointing that the previous administrations did nothing about this

1612
01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 1: huge problem. Obama has done nothing for eight years. With

1613
01:29:22,160 --> 01:29:25,439
Speaker 1: North Korea. He basically gave a hundred and fifty billion

1614
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:27,240
Speaker 1: dollars to he Ran, and he Ran is now an

1615
01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,720
Speaker 1: ally of North Korea, North Koree. He recently went to

1616
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:34,080
Speaker 1: visit with with with Iran. It's unbelievable what's going on that?

1617
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 1: And they watch CNN blame President Trump for this. Okay,

1618
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:43,520
Speaker 1: President Trump is not responsible for Kim Jong un acquiring

1619
01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:47,519
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons and nuclear capability. And I didn't see that

1620
01:29:47,560 --> 01:29:51,479
Speaker 1: Barack Obama did anything in the last eight years. You know, look,

1621
01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:54,040
Speaker 1: this is one of these moments to be perfectly blunt.

1622
01:29:54,160 --> 01:29:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I could focus on how stupid Bill Clinton was,

1623
01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,840
Speaker 1: a naive was and you know, it's the same ment

1624
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:02,120
Speaker 1: lality of peace and our time, peace and our time.

1625
01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:03,960
Speaker 1: And if I'm nicer to you, you're gonna be nicer

1626
01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:07,200
Speaker 1: to me. But you can't negotiate with people at that

1627
01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:09,479
Speaker 1: level of evil. You can negotiate with people that are

1628
01:30:09,479 --> 01:30:12,680
Speaker 1: evil on some degree, but you really can't because if

1629
01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:14,680
Speaker 1: they really want to do something horrible, they're gonna do

1630
01:30:14,720 --> 01:30:19,880
Speaker 1: something horrible. It's scary. Appreciate it. Uh. Dave in California,

1631
01:30:19,960 --> 01:30:24,280
Speaker 1: Dave High, How are you welcome to the Sean Hannity Show. Amazing?

1632
01:30:24,520 --> 01:30:30,160
Speaker 1: I love your work. I'm transplanted from New Jersey years.

1633
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:33,160
Speaker 1: Had to vote for Trump because I thought he could

1634
01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:35,880
Speaker 1: maybe change things. How do we get rid of the

1635
01:30:35,920 --> 01:30:39,360
Speaker 1: two biggest squirrel brats there is, which is Paul Ryan

1636
01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:41,920
Speaker 1: and miss McConnell. How do we get rid of those people?

1637
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,800
Speaker 1: You know, I just think that if they can't get

1638
01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:50,040
Speaker 1: their job done, and to one extent, you know, Paul

1639
01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:52,200
Speaker 1: Ryan told me that an awful lot of things would

1640
01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:54,680
Speaker 1: have been accomplished by now, and they're not. I mean,

1641
01:30:54,800 --> 01:30:58,080
Speaker 1: there's no other way to describe this except that he

1642
01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:01,680
Speaker 1: made a promise we even have built in question he

1643
01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:05,000
Speaker 1: told me, and the job is not done. Mitch McConnell,

1644
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:07,360
Speaker 1: on the other hand, is just pathetic. He didn't even

1645
01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:10,880
Speaker 1: get anything done for the most part. And if if

1646
01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:14,479
Speaker 1: you know, and then I don't know, it's just really weird.

1647
01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:20,400
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's I don't understand what they're doing beyond

1648
01:31:20,439 --> 01:31:22,720
Speaker 1: everything else. If they think they're hurting the president, the

1649
01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:27,519
Speaker 1: president slamming them, ripping them, tearing them up. Republicans rank

1650
01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:31,439
Speaker 1: and file are lived at them, and this is going

1651
01:31:31,600 --> 01:31:33,680
Speaker 1: to hurt them at the ballot box. They've got a

1652
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,680
Speaker 1: very small window now when they get back in September

1653
01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:39,680
Speaker 1: to get the job done. And if they don't get

1654
01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,760
Speaker 1: the job done, then then there's really they'll pay the consequences,

1655
01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:45,799
Speaker 1: and there are you know, there's a price to be paid,

1656
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,640
Speaker 1: and broken promises are broken promises, and I think all

1657
01:31:48,720 --> 01:31:52,320
Speaker 1: bets are off for and that hurts the country, and

1658
01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:55,080
Speaker 1: that hurts the people that believe their lies because as

1659
01:31:55,120 --> 01:31:58,719
Speaker 1: of now, their lies and that's you know, a real

1660
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:01,800
Speaker 1: sad disappo. Waitman, I mean, people disappoint us in life

1661
01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:05,560
Speaker 1: a lot, but this is probably the biggest political letdown,

1662
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:09,920
Speaker 1: at least in in my lifetime. You know, as I say,

1663
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:13,080
Speaker 1: Republicans don't have an identity. Donald Trump has an identity,

1664
01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:17,880
Speaker 1: has passion. He's pushing, he's driving, he's fighting. Republicans they're

1665
01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:21,639
Speaker 1: they're just a mess. There was no talk of any

1666
01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:27,240
Speaker 1: real creative narrative solution paradigms for health care. They're they're

1667
01:32:27,280 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 1: out there. We've discussed them for fifteen plus years about

1668

1684
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,240

1685
01:33:21,280 --> 01:33:24,240
Speaker 1: a good deal for the United States. North Korea will

1686
01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:27,400
Speaker 1: freeze and then this mantle it's nuclear program. South Korea

1687
01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:30,639
Speaker 1: and our other allies will be better protected. The entire

1688
01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:33,200
Speaker 1: world will be safer as we slow the spread of

1689
01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:36,320

Speaker 1: New Iran's nuclear program and roll it back in key areas.

Speaker 1: We have achieved the framework for that deal, and it

1692
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:46,240
Speaker 1: is a good deal, a deal that meets our core objectives.

1693
01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:49,280
Speaker 1: This framework would cut off every pathway that Iran could

1694
01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:52,479
Speaker 1: take to develop a nuclear weapon. They will be met

1695
