23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday one sewn you want to be a part

24
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: of the program. You know, we live in a day,

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 1: in an age and a time, and everybody is so

26
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: sanctimoniously perfect. It's it's hard to live in a world

27
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 1: with such perfection. So Sean Spicer, who's the press secretary

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: for the president, he miss speaks yesterday. It's obvious he

29
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,919
Speaker 1: missed spoke in terms of what he was saying, and everybody, oh,

30
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: this is the worst thing I've ever heard. And just

31
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: to let you know, he was trying to make a

32
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: point about the use of chemical weapons, and he said this,

33
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: we didn't use chemical weapons in World War Two. You know,

34
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: you had a you know, someone who's despicable as Hitler,

35
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: who didn't even sink to the to the to using

36
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: chemical weapons. So you have to if you rush, ask yourself,

37
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: is this a country that you in a regime that

38
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: you want to align yourself with. You have previously signed

39
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: on the international agreements, rightfully acknowledging that the use of

40
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 1: chemical weapons should be out of bounced by every country.

41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: To not stand up to not only some but your

42
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: own word should be troubling. And this is Russia put

43
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: their name on the line. Um. So it's not a

44
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: question of how long that alliance has lasted, but at

45
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: what point do they recognize that they are now getting

46
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: on the wrong side of history in a really bad way,

47
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: really quickly. And then he went on to explain that

48
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: when it comes to Sarah Gas, Hitler was not using

49
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: the gas on his own people the same way Asada

50
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: is doing that. He used them against used them in

51
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: the Holocaust centers, who was talking about the death camps

52
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: and the gas that was used. Look, obviously he misspoke, obviously,

53
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's amazing to me the and then he apologized.

54
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 1: He said, I'm so sorry it didn't come out the

55
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: way I wanted. What I really meant to say is

56
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: I understand my mistake. I apologize. And it's like there's

57
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: no own room in society anymore for anybody that talks,

58
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: for anybody to say anything without somebody interpreting it in

59
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: a way that it's racist, it's sexist, it's islamophobic and xenophobic,

60
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: it's it's anti semitic. It's just, you know, the guy misspoke,

61
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: he said something stupid, so what you know what, he apologized.

62
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: And it's like everybody wants to take every offense and

63
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: make it a death penalty offense. And just said, look,

64
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: we we live. Let me just give you some background

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: as to what it's like to be a radio or

66
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: TV commentator in this day and ah, there are people

67
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: that are literally in their underwear right now, some people

68
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: in New Mexico, for example, and their entire, their entire

69
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: life is to monitor every word I say on this show.

70
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: And there are people that monitor Russia's show, and people

71
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: let monitor Fox News all day, and people that monitor

72
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: Mark Levin show, and people you know, it just never ends,

73
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: and Laura Ingram show, and you know it's and and

74
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: what are they hoping for? They're hoping and hoping and

75
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: praying and and and believing. Oh, if he says one

76
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: thing wrong, one word, one sentence, one phrase out of context,

77
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: makes a mistake, you can't even apologize for making a

78
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: mistake anymore. Now, Congress, they get to revise. I'd like

79
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: to ask the Chiff, I'm able to extend and revise

80
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 1: and extended, monitor marks, and I'm like, okay, so they

81
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: can do it, you know, every once in a while.

82
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,119
Speaker 1: He just got to accept that people say stupid things

83
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: and if they apologize, you move on. If they keep

84
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: saying stupid things, then it becomes a pattern. But I

85
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: you know, I met Sean Spicy. He's a nice guy.

86
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: He's he's not out to screw anybody's not out to

87
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: hurt anybody. Doesn't have a mean bone in his body.

88
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: And uh, obviously it just came out awful. Okay, he

89
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: said he's sorry. Let's move on. Isn't it strange that

90
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: we have all these people that mind? What can you

91
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: think of? What a horrible existence it must be for

92
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: somebody who gets paid to monitor me. For you don't

93
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: get paid to monitor me. You get paid to produce

94
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: a radio show. Stop winding in there about your job.

95
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: You don't get paid. But some losers sitting in their

96
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: underwear in a basement somewhere. It's creepy that they monitor

97
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: all of us that are commentators. You know what they're

98
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: hoping for? Hannity screws up, and then we can go

99
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: after his advertisers. Then we can go we can start

100
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: a boycott, and then we can silence him because they

101
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: don't want alternative voices on the radio. Liberals are not

102
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: about freedom of speech and freedom of expression because they

103
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: never do this to liberals. How many years have I

104
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: said on the program, I am not ever signing on

105
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: to any boycott because I don't like what people say

106
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: or do. I don't do boycotts, and I think conservatives

107
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: are dumb if they do do them, because eventually they're

108
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 1: just gonna turn it around and boycott you. Now, the

109
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: reasons liberals want to boycott somebody like myself is because

110
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: they can't compete in the radio market or the TV

111
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: market even for that matter, so they have everything else

112
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: and they just want to silence conservative voices. It just

113
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: is a little bit ridiculous. You know, I've said things

114
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 1: in my life that I regret. I've said things in

115
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: my life that I wish I never said. I've apologized

116
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: to people for saying them at times, and and I

117
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: Liberals say dumb things all the time. I mean, we

118
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,119
Speaker 1: made fun of Obama for saying Navy corpsman four times

119
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: in a speech because I don't think he knew what

120
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: navy corman was. And as commander in chief, it's just

121
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: pretty pathetic, actually, lee all around the world. Navy corpseman Christian,

122
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: but sharp and lying on a gurney aboard the U.

123
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: S and S comfort A woman asked, Christopher, where do

124
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: you come from? What country? And in creole, Corps member

125
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: Shard responded in tanzi, the United States of America corpsmen.

126
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: You know, but Obama was never held to the same standard.

127
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: And listen. One of the things when I researched my book,

128
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: Deliver Us from Evil, and I really we did a

129
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: lot of research because in the last century a hundred

130
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: human souls were destroyed in wars and terror and and

131
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: every unimaginable evil that took place in the world. And

132
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: there's nothing more that exemplifies evil more to me than

133
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: the Holocaust I described in the book. I found this research.

134
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: You know, this is how dark and evil the people

135
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: that these death camps were. They would act, truly tell

136
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: people when they got off the trains at Auschwitz or

137
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: or any of these other death camps. Oh, are there

138
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: any electricians here and amongst you, yes, electricians, step forward.

139
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: Any nurses, Oh good, we have need for nurses. Any uh,

140
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: construction workers, Oh, we have need for construction workers. And

141
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: you know why they did that, because they wanted to

142
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: keep chaos from breaking out, and they wanted to create

143
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: false hope that they had a future and a life

144
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: even within the horror and the evil of that camp. Now,

145
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: imagine that's your job and then you walk these people in,

146
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: you strip them down, humiliate them, and you kill them,

147
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: and you murder them and you exterminate them. That's evil.

148
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: Evil exists, you know, It's like this is This goes

149
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: to my whole argument about why I think the president

150
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: of the right thing in Syria. Now, it was within

151
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: what he promised to do. He said he would fight terror.

152
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 1: He said he didn't want occupation, he didn't want boots

153
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: on the ground. They didn't want America to get involved

154
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: in foreign conflicts like we did. But now the America's choices.

155
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: The difference now is the world has moral clarity again.

156
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: And I just don't think as a country we can

157
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: stand back or should we stand back and watch evil

158
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: and in a holocaust emerge before our eyes and not

159
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: do anything and go to sleep at night. And those

160
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: Nazi soldiers who did that day in and day out,

161
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: killing their fellow human beings, it's unconscionable. It's evil. What

162
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: do you think it is when when somebody murders somebody

163
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: out of rage and anger, that's evil. How does any

164
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: man ever rape and violate a woman? It's evil? How

165
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: do you what about these pedophiles that abuse children and

166
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: destroy them of their soul in their innocence. That's evil.

167
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: There's a lot of full in this world. Why do

168
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: you think I want the biggest, baddest, toughest, strongest military

169
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: to defend America against foreign evil forces? Knowing the history

170
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: of the world, knowing the last hundred years of human history,

171
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: knowing that the Holocaust really happened, knowing that the killing

172
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: fields in Cambodia really happened, knowing that nearly thirty million

173
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:33,119
Speaker 1: people were slaughtered under Stalin and Russia it really happened.

174
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: And the conquest and and you know, all throughout the

175
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: ages and the murder and the mayhem and the rape

176
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: and the that just exists. And you know, we always

177
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: say about the Holocaust never again. We should really mean it.

178
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: And if you've gotta gas innocent men, women and children,

179
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: how do we stand back and not at least try? Now?

180
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: I think Trump will be successful because I don't think

181
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: they want fifty nine thousand pound munitions dropped on their

182
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: head again the way we did it with such pinpoint accuracy,

183
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: because we got the best military on the face of

184
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: the earth. But he did the right thing. Now, the

185
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 1: President did say today he's got a press conference coming

186
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: up supposedly in an hour, that we're not going into

187
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 1: Syria or policy is the same, It hasn't changed. We're

188
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: not going to Syria. And that is in keeping with

189
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: what he said. And that brings up another point. How

190
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: do we ask brave men and women to go fight,

191
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: bleed and die on the battlefield? Our government sends them

192
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: there and then they pull them out after they achieve

193
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: one victory after another to stop evil. And it was

194
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: interesting to hear James Clapper reiterate what I had said

195
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: for years that I believe Saddam Hussein had his chemical

196
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: weapons arsenal biological weapon arsenal moved into Syria. And he

197
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: said there's evidence of convoys that showed just in the

198
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: lead up to the war that that very thing was happening.

199
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: Where else did assad get the chemical weapons from which,

200
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: by the way, Obama and Rice and John kurryromdrong career

201
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: voters for Trevor Million before voter to grinstrick. Interesting developments

202
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: with Tillerson today, our Secretary of State. By the way,

203
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: this you know what this means, because Vladimir Putin did

204
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 1: decide to meet with Rex Tillerson today. It means that,

205
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, those people over at NBC News are gonna

206
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 1: be claiming this is more proof that Putin orchestrated the

207
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: Syrian missile strike to make Trump look good. That's what

208
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: they're saying on NBC News every day anyway. So, the

209
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: Secretary of State waited for much of the day wondering

210
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: whether he would actually get a face to face with Vladimir,

211
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: and the two men sat down at the Kremlin late

212
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: this afternoon Russia time, and their first face to face meeting.

213
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: And Russia said earlier this week that Putin would not

214
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: be with Tillerson, but on Wednesday, the Russian leaders spokesman

215
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 1: Dmitri Peskoff held out the possibility of meeting later in

216
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: the day. Russian leaders have greeted virtually all new Secretaries

217
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: of Day since the end of the World World War Two,

218
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: but Mr Pescov said any meeting would depend on how

219
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: Mr Tillison and his other talks went. So the Foreign

220
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: Ministry spokesperson said it was useless to Mr for Mr

221
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,079
Speaker 1: Tillison to arrive in Moscow with ultimatums and suggested that

222
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: if he wanted any progress, he should start by getting

223
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: Mr Trump and his administration on the same page about

224
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: Syrian strategy. And there was a question about all of this. Anyway,

225
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: The bottom line is putin caved. Here's another interesting headline today.

226
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: China is now threatening China. It's threatening to take out

227
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: North Korea's nuclear facilities on their own, all right. Donald

228
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: Trump also commenting it's not too late to fire James Comey,

229
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: the FBI director. We got some bitter sounding comments from

230
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: John McCain yet again. Lindsey Graham, the warhawk, wants the

231
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: red line to expand from chemical weapons to barrel bombs.

232
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: Will get to that today. We have the FBI obtained

233
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: a fighter warrant for direct our aveillance of a Trump

234
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: paid which means that Sarah Carter and John Solomon were right.

235
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: And we have a new book out that shows just

236
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: how mean Hillary was terrorizing our entire campaign staff. So

237
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: we'll get to all this today. One Shawn Tolfrey telephone number.

238
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: You want to be a part of the program. All right,

239
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: as we roll along Sean Hannity Show. So it is.

240
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: This is pretty interesting because you know, we've been all

241
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: over the surveillance, the unmasking, the leaking intelligence issue. So

242
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: we have now the first mainstream media confirmation. Isn't it

243
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: nice that they finally catch up to me. I'm so

244
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: many so far in advance of them. It's ridiculous, tart

245
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: that the Obama administration targeted the Trump campaign for political surveillance.

246
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: They should have said, Sean Hannity was right, Donald Trump

247
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: was right. It happened now, this was not an American

248
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: citizen being picked up incidentally as part of surveillance of

249
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: a far national And what happened here was the target

250
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: surveillance was a low level Trump advisor. I don't even

251
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: know the guy. I've never met him that I think

252
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: that I can remember. I don't remember meeting him. That

253
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: ordered by the administration that backed his opponent, based apparently

254
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: on the Clinton campaign's conspiracy theory that the Russians were

255
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: helping Trump steal the election from Hillary. Anyway, the FBI

256
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: obtained a secret court order last summer to monitor communications

257
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: of President Donald Trump's some guy advisor to Donald Trump's campaign,

258
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: part of an investigation in the possible links between Russia

259
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: and the campaign. Courting a law enforcement the FBI and

260
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: the Justice Department obtained the warrant targeting carter Pages communications

261
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: after convincing a vis A Corps judge that there was

262
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: probable cause to believe the Page was acting as an

263
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: agent of a foreign power, in this case Russia. Now

264
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: this is the clearest evidence so far that the FBI

265
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: had reason to believe during the twenty sixteen campaign that

266
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: a Trump advisor was in touch with Russian agents. No,

267
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: it's the clearest evidence that the Obama administration used America's

268
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: intelligence gathering, weaponizing intelligence, politicizing intelligence agencies against their political opponents,

269
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: And which I keep saying is the definition of a

270
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: police state. In fact, Carter Page himself understands all too

271
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: well what happened here. It says, it confirms my suspicions

272
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: about unjustified, politically motivated government surveillance. He said, I have

273
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: nothing to hide, he said, I he compared the surveillance

274
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: of him to the eavesdropping by the FBI and the

275
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: Justice Department. He may not remember this against civil rights

276
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: leader Martin Luther King Jr. Remember the letter that was

277
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: sent to him to that he should kill himself. Anyone

278
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: forget that little bit of history. And during the hearing

279
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: last month, Democratic lawmakers repeatedly singled out Pages Contacts and

280
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: Russia for cause for concern. But the judges who rule

281
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 1: in the FISA court, you know, they rarely deny an application.

282
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: Any fives application has to be approved at the highest

283
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: levels of the Justice Department, meaning Loretta Lynch and James Colemey. Unbelievable.

284
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 1: Alight till the top of the hour, here's an interesting

285
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: thing going on in France. I guess good thing France

286
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: doesn't have their own Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals where

287
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 1: I guess, uh, you can't vet people coming into America

288
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: being a top priority because the current front runner and

289
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: France's presidential election because of all the immigration issues, the

290
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: migrant issues, all the crime that has increased all throughout

291
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: Europe and France and Germany, and the terror attacks in

292
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: Belgium and Sweden and Great Britain. But Berdine Leppin has

293
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: pledged to suspend France's membership of the European Unions Borderless

294
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: Area immediately if she's elected to the presidency and deport

295
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: all foreign nationals on the Republic's Islamist watch list. Every

296
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: second of my presidency will be useful to France and

297
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: the French sounds a lot like America first, said the

298
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: forty eight year old leader of the the Front National

299
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: and a video outlining the first ten measures she intends

300
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: to implement if she is elected. Anyway, she said, pulling

301
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: out of this, described by the former interpoll chief as

302
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: effectively as an international passport free zone for terrorists to

303
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: execute attacks on the continent and make their escape following

304
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: the Paris attacks, means an immediate showdown with the European

305
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: Union and their unelected central executive. The European Union was

306
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: never ever a good idea. Um interesting headlines on Drudge today,

307
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: one is Navy seals of training to take out Kim

308
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: Jong un or is Ali calls him the chubby despot

309
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: and China US is not uffing and uh hidden sub

310
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: threat is going on where nuclear sniffers are deployed and

311
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: we would have the ability if they want to escalate.

312
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: This might be the time now. Even what's even more

313
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: interesting is an investor's business daily piece today And I

314
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: understand you gotta understand why a lot of this is happening.

315
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: The world has gotten used to America leading from behind.

316
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: America has gotten used to appeasement. America's gotten The world

317
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: has gotten used to American appeasement. Mary, The world's gotten

318
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: used to you know, president that's afraid to go out

319
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: there and and say radical Islamic terror. You know, they're

320
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: used to a guy that goes around the world apologizing

321
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: constantly for American strength and giving a ridiculous deal to

322
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 1: the Iranians and betraying our closest ally Israel. That's what

323
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: the world is used to. Now the world's changed, and

324
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: it changed dramatically when Donald Trump fired those Tomahawk missiles. So, anyway,

325
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: decades worth of nego ciations by Clinton Bush, the Obama administrations.

326
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: By the way, if you want to know why North

327
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: Koreans have nuclear weapons, it's exactly the same mistake Obama

328
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: was making with the RAND And they'd save a rattle

329
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: in North Korea, and we would appease them with more

330
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 1: money and more goodies, and just we've just promised us,

331
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna be good if we give you this, And

332
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: we give him money and buy peace for six months,

333
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 1: and they go back to their same old ways and

334
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: get more money. And that's how stupid Bill Clinton was.

335
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: And it ended up that the North Korean's got nukes anyway,

336
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: And you've got this mentally unstable leader of North Korea

337
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: that really should scare everybody at the time. He doesn't

338
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: have intercontinental holistic missiles i c b ms anyway. Americans

339
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 1: diplomats have complained, they've issued warnings in the past, Clinton, Bush, Obama,

340
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: all of them demanding action, passing sanctions, declaring this or

341
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: that behavior of Kim Jong ill or Kim Jong un

342
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: his son, all of which drew the same or saba

343
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: from Kim Jong Sung, Kim Jong ill, and Kim Jong

344
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: un father's son grandfather, which is a giant middle finger

345
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 1: in the face of America. Now, the response from Beijing

346
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: at those during those times in history, it wasn't much

347
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: better either. I guess what a difference a new president makes.

348
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,159
Speaker 1: Because China is now threatening North Korea, its own client state,

349
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,479
Speaker 1: with a military attack that will take out their nuclear

350
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: weapons program. Can you imagine that alliance emerging? Look, the

351
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: world's configuration alliances are are still shifting even as we speak,

352
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: in large part because of Obama appeasement and weakness. I mean,

353
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 1: the only reason the Israelis, the saudiast, the Jordanians, the

354
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 1: Egyptians are now getting along is because of a mutual

355
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: fear of a nuclear armed Iran and Iranian hegemony in

356
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: the region, as also influenced by Russia taking advantage of

357
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: the situation in Syria and aligning with Iran on missile

358
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: defense and some other defense issues. So you got the Shia,

359
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: the Iranians versus the Sunni Muslims that have aligned with Israel.

360
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: In the United States, it just it probably could not

361
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 1: have happened this way were it not for Obama appeasement

362
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: and weakness. Well, the same thing maybe appearing. And I'm

363
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: way ahead of myself here. I'm just hopeful, actually, and

364
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: that is that apparently, and this I've talked to somebody

365
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: close to the president. They were stunned, absolutely stunned about

366
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: the chemistry that existed with the Chinese president and the

367
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 1: First Lady and Donald Trump and the First Lady of China.

368
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: Absolutely stunned. Well, they all got along. A friend of

369
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 1: mine told me that Donald Trump actually had to tell

370
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: him during dinner that the Tomahawk missile order was given,

371
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,959
Speaker 1: and that the guy sat silent for about ten fifteen

372
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: seconds and said, well, you shouldn't use chemical weapons on children.

373
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I can't confirm that, but I

374
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 1: was told by somebody, and I'm not surprised. So apparently

375
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: they really hit it off. When I explained to him

376
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: that what we were doing, because they were gassing children,

377
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: he understood immediately. Trump said, I asked about their summit,

378
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: given some of the harsh things that Trump had said

379
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,239
Speaker 1: about China, said, I was a little surprised. We had

380
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: great chemistry. That they had scheduled a one hour meeting.

381
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: It ended up going nearly five and a half hours

382
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: between Trump and the president of China. Loan the premier.

383
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: I like him, and he liked me a lot. Now

384
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean we're going to get along on trade

385
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: or North Korea, but we had great chemistry, so it's

386
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: certainly a hopeful sign. Now here's where it gets interesting,

387
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: according to investor investors, Business Daily observers noted that the

388
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: missile attacks on the Syrian air base were launched as

389
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: President Trump sat down to dinner last week with China's president,

390
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: and the Chinese president immediately recognized that this president, unlike

391
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: previous president presidents acts quickly to make sure bad situations

392
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 1: don't get worse. And despite their at times rocky relationship,

393
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: China is the totalitarian communist North Korea's regime's main patron

394
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: and protector. That's why I mentioned the coal that they

395
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: shipped back to North Korea as a sign that China

396
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: may be willing to align with other people at this

397
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 1: point in history, and alliances have shifted and changed, you know,

398
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: a lot, over the many decades, so it's not beyond

399
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: comprehension anyway. So accounting for over half of North Korea's

400
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: trade and much of their food and much of their

401
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: energy supplies anyway, they're striving for self sufficiency. But without

402
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: aid from China, North Koreans would starve. So China is

403
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 1: their most important ally. And even so, North Korean tyrant

404
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: Kim Jong un appears to be preparing a sixth nuclear

405
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: test and has threatened the US with a nuclear strike

406
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: strike if they interfere, if we interfere, and knowing now

407
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: that Trump means business, China seems to have reached the

408
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: end of its patients with this unpredictable, loony lunatic that

409
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: is in charge Kim Jong un, and we know that

410
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: because the a tough editorial in the Global Times, which

411
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: is an international newspaper owned by the Chinese Communist Party,

412
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: actually warned the China's government has a bottom line, and

413
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: if that bottom line is touched, China will employ all

414
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: means available, including the military means, to strike back. This

415
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 1: is China's Communist Party newspaper. And the editorial then goes

416
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: a step further, telling North Korea that it won't wait

417
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: for the US to do the dirty work, but they

418
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: will launch the attacks against North Korea's nuclear facilities on

419
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 1: their own. Wow, that's pretty profound. Who knows. Maybe this

420
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 1: relationship is gonna changed dramatically for the better. It's obvious

421
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: that China has tried to adopt more. Well, I gotta

422
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: be careful how I say this. I mean, this is

423
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: all relative. It's still a communist state. It's still you know,

424
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: Mao's little red book here. But they are building way

425
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: out within the countryside, all these condominiums, and they're trying

426
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: to grow their economy. Again that their economy is stifled,

427
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: and they probably want good trade relations with the US,

428
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: considering we represent a big part of the business that

429
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: China does, and the Chinese Premier also President also said

430
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,880
Speaker 1: that he's willing to take you know, a better trade

431
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: deal with with Donald Trump after those meeting, so I

432
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: thought that was pretty interesting. So I think China pretty

433
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: much has gotten the message Trump is not going to

434
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: roll over like Obama, and that Trump means business, and

435
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: that the president of China learned after being informed during

436
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: a steak and seepoo dinner that Trump had launched fifty

437
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: nine Tomahawk missiles at the chemical weapons base in Syria

438
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: without asking Russia's permission and after just giving a short

439
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 1: warning because we had an a mutual agreement to do so.

440
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 1: That gave them forty minutes to get out of dodge

441
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: because those missiles were coming. That's it. That explains I

442
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: think China's sudden shift in tone. You know, look at

443
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: the bottom line is Reagan was right. Piece through strength works.

444
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: It just does. It works. We only use it, and

445
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: it looks like we're about to use it again. I

446
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: don't understand all this criticism over Trump and in the

447
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: fifty nine Tomahawk missiles. It's called a message. By the way,

448
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: the President did an interview with my colleague and friend

449
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: Maria and Barr to Romo is a lovely person, so nice.

450
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: I thought she did a great interview. Watched it this

451
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: morning on Fox Business. But she gave us a preview

452
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: last night on Hannity. She's gonna will show some of

453
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: that interview tonight as well. But anyway, the President offered

454
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: up a mixed review of James Comey, and he told

455
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 1: the He told Maria that you know he still has

456
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 1: confidence in call me, but he blamed the Obama administration

457
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: a point deeper keeping Hillary Clinton out of jail, and

458
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: he said it's not too late to fire him. Well,

459
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: people are still wondering, though, they're scratching your heads why

460
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: so many Obama era staffers are still here? For example,

461
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: was it a mistake not to ask Jim Comey to

462
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: step down from the the FBI at the outside of

463
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: your presidency? Is it too late now to ask him

464
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: to step down? No, it's not too late. But you know,

465
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: I have confidence in and we'll see what happens. You know,

466
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: it's it's going to be interesting, but you know, we

467
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: have to just look. I have so many people that

468
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: want to come into this administration. They're so excited about

469
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:49,960
Speaker 1: this administration and what's happening. Bankers, law enforcement, everybody wants

470
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: to come into this administration. Don't forget when Jim Coleby

471
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: came out he saved Hillary Clinton. People don't realize said

472
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: he saved her life because I call it, call me one,

473
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: and I joke about it a little bit when he

474
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: was reading those charges she was guilty on every church

475
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: and then he said she was essentially okay because I

476
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: want to give everybody a good, fair chance. Director Comey

477
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: was very very good to Hillary Clinton. That I can

478
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: tell you. If he weren't, she would be right now

479
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: going to trial. Are you going to push that? Are

480
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 1: you going to I don't want to talk about that.

481
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: I want to talk about positive Wow. Call me. He's

482
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: on a bubble. You know. I'm getting a little sick

483
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 1: of John McCain and Lindsey Graham too. John McCain sounding

484
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: increasingly bitter. I've noticed this with anybody that loses loses

485
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: the presidency. I think we saw a little bit of

486
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 1: this sadly. And Mitt Romney. I like Mitt Romney a

487
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: lot at the time. I still believe he would have

488
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: been a pretty good president. Well, and now what that

489
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: speech he gave against Trump, Uh, you can't what was

490
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: he thinking? Now? John mcke sane is out there and

491
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: uh gives an interview and he says, quote, you couldn't

492
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: purchase the airtime that Trump got on sixty against sixteen

493
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: or seventeen opponents, sucking all the oxygen out of the room.

494
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough and others slob it all over him every

495
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: single morning and every night. I don't see that happening

496
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: in the future. I think that we will go back.

497
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: What does that mean that Trump's gonna lose? He's predicting

498
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: you a lose, by the way, you remember McCain, and

499
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 1: you know because Lindsey Graham now is urging Trump to

500
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: move the red line in Syria from chemical weapons to

501
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: also barrel bombs. Why are these people so anxious after

502
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: the disaster of a rack and it's a disaster not

503
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: because our troops didn't win, because we didn't complete the

504
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: victory and now Isis has control because it was politicized.

505
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: Why are these guys so anxious to get into a

506
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,719
Speaker 1: military confrontation. I'm not I don't think we should ever

507
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: send brave men and women and Amry Orkan Treasure to

508
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: go fight, bleed and die on the battlefield, to have

509
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: yet another war politicized in Washington. Think about it through

510
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: this prism. Well, what if that's your son and daughter

511
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: that dies Inmosl Ramadi Felusha uh to create or Baghdad up. Sorry,

512
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: never mind, we're pulling you out. It's insane allowing the politicization,

513
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: of politicalization of a war like that, It's insane, unbelievable.

514
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: I I hate these people in Washington. I just hate them.

515
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: They're so so corrupt. It's amazing. We'll get anything done

516
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 1: in the next four years in spite of these people.

517
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: Trump will just push it through. I hope. All right,

518
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 1: President Trump and the NATO leader are holding a press

519
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: conference where starting it at the beginning here, it is

520
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 1: hit it of besides murderous attack using the most horrible weapons,

521
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,320
Speaker 1: the vicious slotter of innocence of it with chemical weapons,

522
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: including the barbaric killing of small and helpless children and babies,

523
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: must be forcefully rejected by any nation that values human life.

524
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: It is time to end this brutal civil war, defeat terrorists,

525
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: and allow refugees to return home. In facing our common challenges,

526
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: we must also ensure that NATO members meet their financial

527
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: obligations and pay what they owe. Many have not been

528
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: doing that. The Secretary General and I agree that other

529
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: member nations must satisfy their responsibility to contribute two percent

530
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 1: of g d P to defense. If other countries pay

531
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: their fair share instead of relying on the United States

532
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: to make up the difference, we will all be much

533
00:32:54,600 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: more secure and our partnership will be made that much stronger.

534
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: The Secretary General and I had a productive discussion about

535
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: what more NATO can do in the fight against terrorism.

536
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: I complained about that a long time ago, and they

537
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: made a change, and now they do fight terrorism. I

538
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: said it was obsolete. It's no longer obsolete. It's my

539
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: hope that NATO will take on an increased role in

540
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: supporting our Iraqi partners in their battle against ISIS. I'm

541
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: also sending General McMaster to Afghanistan to find out how

542
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: we can make progress alongside our Afghan partners and NATO allies.

543
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: Every generation has strived to adopt the NATO Alliance to

544
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: meet the challenges of their times, and on my visit

545
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: to Brussels this spring, which I look very much forward to,

546
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: we will work together to do the same. We must

547
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: not be trapped by the tired thinking that so many

548
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 1: have but apply new solutions to face new circumstances, and

549
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: that's all throughout the world. We're not here to stand

550
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: on ceremony, but to develop real strategies to achieve safety,

551
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: security and peace. We're here to protect the freedom and

552
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: prosperity of our citizens and to give them the future

553
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: they so richly deserve. Secretary General, I'm honored to have

554
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: you here today and to reaffirm our commitment to this

555
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 1: alliance and to the enduring values that we proudly and

556
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: I mean very proudly share. Thank you very much, Thank

557
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: you for being here. Thank you, thank you so thank

558
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 1: you so much. Mr President. We just had an excellent

559
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: and very productive meeting, and it's really an honor to

560
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: meet you for the first time here in the White House.

561
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: We agree that NATO is a bedrock of security, both

562
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: for Europe and for the United States. Two World wars

563
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: and a Cold War have photos all that peace in

564
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: Europe is not only important for Europeans, but it's also

565
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: important for the prosperity and the security of North America.

566
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: So a strong NATO it's good for Europe, but the

567
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: strong NATO is also good for the United States. And

568
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: therefore a welcome the very strong commitment of the United

569
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: States to the security of Europe. We see this commitment

570
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: not only in words, but also indeeds. Over the past months,

571
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: thousands of US troops have been deploying to Europe, a

572
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: clear demonstration that America stands with allies to protect peace

573
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: and offend our freedom. And yesterday you announced the completion

574
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: of the ratification of Montenegro's membership in NATO, another expression

575
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: of your strong commitment to Europe and to the Transatlantic

576
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: bomb and we thank you for that. In a more

577
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: dangerous and more unpredictable world, it is important to have

578
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: friends and allies, and in NATO, America has the best

579
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 1: friends and the best allies in the world. Together, we

580
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: represent half of the world's economic and military power. No

581
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: other superpower has ever had such a strategic advantage. This

582
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 1: makes the United States stronger and safer. We saw that

583
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 1: after the nine eleven attacks on the United States. That

584
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: was the first time NATO invoked our Article five to

585
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: the Collective Defense class. Allies sent a wak's surveillance plans

586
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: to help patrol American skies, and we launched natal's biggest

587
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 1: military operation ever in Afghanistan. Hundreds of thousands of Europeans

588
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: and Canadians soldiers have served shoulder to shoulder with American troops.

589
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: More than a thousand have paid the ultimate price. Earlier

590
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: today I laid a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery in

591
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: tribute to the fallen. It was a deeply moving experience.

592
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: We owe it to our servicemen and women to preserve

593
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: the hard earned gains we are made together in Afghanistan.

594
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: We were reminded of their sacrifice just this week when

595
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 1: a US soldier or skill they're fighting ISIL. Our mission

596
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 1: in Afghanistan is a major contribution to the fight against

597
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 1: international terrorism. NATO place a key role in many other ways. Also,

598
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: all NATAL allies are part of the Global Coalition to

599
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: counter EISL and NATO provides direct support the collison. We're

600
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: training for Iraqi forces in their fight against terrorists and

601
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: more intelligence sharing. And you're right, we have established a

602
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: new division for intelligence which enhances our ability to fight

603
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,720
Speaker 1: terrorism and working together in the Alliance to fight terrorism

604
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: in an even more effective way. But we agreed today,

605
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: you and I that NATO can and much do more

606
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: in the global fight against terrorism. In the fight against terrorism,

607
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: training local forces is one of the best weapons we have.

608
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: NATO has the experience, the expertise and the staying power

609
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,840
Speaker 1: to make a real difference, and fighting terrorism will be

610
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: an important topic when NATO leaders meet in Brussels in May.

611
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: The other major topic will be fair burden sharing in

612
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: our alliance and we have a total discussion on this

613
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 1: issue today and Mr President, I thank you for your

614
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: attention to this issue. We are already seeing the effect

615
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 1: of your strong focus on the importance of burden sharing

616
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 1: in the Alliance. We agree that allies need to redouble

617
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: their efforts to meet the pledge we all made in

618
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:02,320
Speaker 1: fourteen to invest more in our lines. It is about

619
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 1: spending more on defense, It is about delivering the capabilities

620
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:11,919
Speaker 1: we need, and it is about contributing forces to NAT

621
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: omissions and operations. This means cash, capabilities and contributions. Fair

622
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: burden sharing has been my top priority since taking office.

623
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: We have now turned a corner. In twenty sixteen, for

624
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: the first time in many years, we saw an increase

625
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 1: in defense spending across European allies and Canada, a real

626
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: increase of three point eight percent, or ten billion dollars

627
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: more for our defense. We are now working to keep

628
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: op the momentum, including by developing national plans outlanning how

629
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 1: to make good on what we agreed in fourteen. We

630
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: know that we all need to contribute our fair share

631
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 1: because we need to keep our nations safe in a

632
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 1: more dangerous world. We discussed many different topics during our

633
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 1: meeting today, including the horrendous use of chemical weapons in Syria.

634
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: Any use of chemical weapons is unacceptable, cannot go un answered,

635
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 1: and those responsible must be held accountable. So Mr President,

636
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: thank you once again. I look forward to working with

637
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: you to keeping the Alliance strong, and I look forward

638
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 1: to welcoming you to Brussels in May when heads of

639
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,240
Speaker 1: state and government in the Alliance meet there to address

640
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: the challenges and they need to continue to adapt the

641
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: Alliance to a more challenging security environment and to respond

642
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: both of the need for fair President Trump and the

643
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,320
Speaker 1: NATO leader holding a joint press conference. We'll stick with

644
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: it a little longer. I think questions are coming up.

645
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: Although this guy is boring me to tears, so we'll

646
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: listen to some questions. Jeff Mason, thank you. If you're

647
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: on the networks, we will probably blow through this break.

648
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 1: UH first, has your view of Vladimir Putin changed after

649
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 1: what's happened in Syria, and what do you pretend what

650
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 1: is the United States prepared to do if he continues

651
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 1: to support assad And on a separate question, Um, have

652
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: you made a deal after your chat last night with

653
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: the president of China about China helping to reign in

654
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: North Korea? And is that one reason you've decided not

655
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: to label Beijing a currency manipulator for them? I'll be

656
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: speaking to Yeah, you want to go ahead, go ahead?

657
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 1: For the Secretary General. Uh, do you believe NATO should

658
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:52,240
Speaker 1: continue to bolster its present presence along the alliance's eastern border?

659
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: And do you have are you confident that you have

660
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: President Trump in the United States support for that? Thank you.

661
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 1: I'll be speaking with Rex to listen in a little while,

662
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,439
Speaker 1: calling in. I think he had a very successful meeting

663
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 1: in Russia. We'll see, we'll see the end result, which

664
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: will be in a long period of time perhaps, But

665
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: the end result is what's most important, not just talk.

666
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: And I think that based on everything I'm hearing, things

667
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: went pretty well, maybe better than anticipated. Uh, it would

668
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: be wonderful. As we were discussing just a little while ago,

669
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: if NATO and our country could get along with Russia.

670
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: Right now, we're not getting along with Russia at all.

671
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,200
Speaker 1: We may be at an all time low in terms

672
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: of relationship with Russia. This is built for a long

673
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: period of time. But we're gonna see what happens. Putin

674
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: is the leader of Russia. Russia is a strong country.

675
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 1: We're a very very strong country. We're going to see

676
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 1: how that all works out. Last night, Uh, separately, I

677
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 1: spoke with a man that I've gotten to know. I

678
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: don't know Putin, but I do know this gentleman. I've

679
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:04,919
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time with him over the last

680
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 1: two days, and he is the president of China. You

681
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 1: were there, most of you were there, and it was

682
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: quite an interesting period of time. Uh President. She wants

683
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,879
Speaker 1: to do the right thing. We had a very good

684
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: uh bonding. I think we had a very good chemistry together.

685
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: I think he wants to help us with North Korea.

686
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 1: We talked trade, We talk a lot of things, and

687
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: I said, the way you're gonna make a good trade

688
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 1: deal is to help us with North Korea. Otherwise we're

689
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: just going to go it alone. That'll be all right, too,

690
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 1: but going it alone means going it with lots of

691
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: other nations. But I was very impressed with President she

692
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: and I think he means well and I think he

693
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: wants to help. We'll see whether or not he does

694
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:55,800
Speaker 1: you feel like you have a deal with him? And

695
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:57,800
Speaker 1: and if I could just do you feel like you

696
00:44:57,880 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: have a deal with him in terms of the currency

697
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: manip evation designation and have your views changed on Putin?

698
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: We're going to see. We're going to see about that,

699
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 1: and I'll also see about Puttin over a period of

700
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 1: time be a fantastic thing if we got along with

701
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: Putin and if we got along with Russia, and that

702
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 1: could happen, and it may not happen, or maybe just

703
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: the opposite. I can only tell you what I would

704
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 1: like to do. I would love to be able to

705
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,760
Speaker 1: get along with everybody. Right now, the world is a mess,

706
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 1: but I think by the time we finished, I think

707
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: it's going to be a lot better place to live.

708
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,319
Speaker 1: And I can tell you that speaking for myself. We're

709
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: gonna stay with this press conference. If you are listening

710
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: along with Sean Hannity Show Network, and if you decide

711
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 1: to take a break, we will understand. NATO is in

712
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: the process of implementing the biggest reinforcement to over collect

713
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,320
Speaker 1: the defense since the end of the Cold War, and

714
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 1: one element of that is to increase our military presence

715
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: in the eastern part of the Alliance. And we are

716
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: now deploying four battle groups to the three Boltic countries

717
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: on Poland, and there also been more US forces in

718
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 1: that part of Europe. And this is the first time

719
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 1: in many, many years that we see an increase in

720
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 1: the military presence of the United States in Europe. So

721
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 1: we are increasing our presence, and we are also increasing

722
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 1: the readiness and the prepenans of forces so we can

723
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:24,839
Speaker 1: quickly reinforce if needed. We consider the presence we will

724
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: have when the four battle groups are in place as

725
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: sufficient given the current security situation in Europe. But of

726
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: course we will assess the situation and follow the developments

727
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: very closely. The message from NATO is that what we

728
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: do is proportionate, it is defensive, and we don't want

729
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 1: a new Cold War, we don't want a new arms race.

730
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: And actually we strongly believe that there is no contradiction

731
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:57,320
Speaker 1: between a strong NATO, credible the terrence and defense and

732
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: political dialogue with Russia. Actually, really that precondition for the

733
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: political dialogue with Russia is that we are strong and

734
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: that we are united, but based on that we can

735
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 1: talk to Russia. Because Russia is our neighbor. Russia is

736
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 1: staid to stay, so we have to find ways to

737
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 1: manage our relationship with Russia. And I am absolutely certain

738
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 1: that the United States supports this approach, partly because the

739
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 1: United States is contributing with forces to our and enhanced

740
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 1: the presence in the eastern part of the Alliance and

741
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: also in the southeast of the Alliance in Romania and uh.

742
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,320
Speaker 1: The United States and the President has clearly expressed that

743
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,759
Speaker 1: they want dialogue with Russia, but based on unity and

744
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: strength in the Alliance. Then the next question is from

745
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: John Sopel, and thank you very much, Secretary General. How

746
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 1: long do you think it will take you to persuade

747
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,359
Speaker 1: the other European countries to burden share and what are

748
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 1: you going to do to persuade them? And Mr the

749
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 1: President could ask you, do you think it's I'm here

750
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: to help and and Mr President, do you think it's conceivable?

751
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 1: What's your instinct? Was it possible that Syrian forces could

752
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 1: have launched that attack in Italy last week without the

753
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 1: Russians knowing, and have you been disappointed surprised by Vladimir

754
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 1: Putin's reaction since then? Thank you very much. I think

755
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: it's certainly possible. I think it's probably unlikely, and I

756
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:36,399
Speaker 1: know they're doing investigations into that right now. I would

757
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: like to think that they didn't know, but certainly they

758
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 1: could have. They were there, so we'll find out. General

759
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: Mattis is looking into it with the entire Pentagon group

760
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 1: that does that kind of work. So it was very

761
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,279
Speaker 1: disappointing to see. It's disappointing no matter who does it.

762
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 1: But when you get into the gases, especially that form,

763
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:02,439
Speaker 1: it's it's vicious and island and everybody in this room

764
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: so it all too many times over the last three

765
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 1: or four days, young children dying, babies dying, father's holding

766
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: children in their arms that were dead, dead children. Uh.

767
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 1: They can't be a worse sight, and it shouldn't be allowed.

768
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,840
Speaker 1: That's a butcher, that's a butcher. So I felt we

769
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 1: had to do something about it. I have absolutely no

770
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: doubt we did the right thing, and it was very

771
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: very successfully done, as you well. Now, thank you on

772
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: defense spending, on burden sharing, that has been my top priority.

773
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: I have raised it in all my meetings in all

774
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: capitals I visited with prime ministers, presidents, Minister of Finance

775
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 1: and of course also defense on foreign ministers. And I expect,

776
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 1: of course all our eyes to make good on what

777
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 1: they designed. It back into toss than fourteen and they're

778
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: very strong and clear. Such from Preston Trump has been

779
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 1: very helpful. So now we see that things are starting

780
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 1: to move in the right direction for the first time

781
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 1: after after many, many years of the client and defense spending,

782
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 1: we now see an increase in defense spending across Europe

783
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: and Canada. So they have started to move in the

784
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: right direction. Three point eight percent real increase in defense

785
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: spending across Europe and Canada is a significant step in

786
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,880
Speaker 1: the right direction. It's not enough. We still have a

787
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 1: long way to go, but at least they have turned

788
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: the corner. European allies have turned a corner. Instead of

789
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:36,359
Speaker 1: reducing defense spending, they have started to increase defense spending. Then,

790
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 1: I think it is important to remember that this is

791
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 1: something the Europeans do because they know that this is

792
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,800
Speaker 1: in their own security in taste, this in their interest

793
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 1: to invest more in European defense because the world has

794
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 1: become more dangerous. Many European allies, of course, reduced or

795
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: all European allies reduced the fense spending after the end

796
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 1: of the Cold War because then tensions went down. But

797
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:03,799
Speaker 1: if you're decreasing defense spending retentions are going down, then

798
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 1: you have to be able to increase the defense spending

799
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 1: when intentions are going up. And now they are going up.

800
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 1: So we have still a long way to go. But

801
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: I'm encouraged, all right, basically going around in circles here.

802
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 1: But that is the head of NATO, the NATO General Secretary,

803
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: and of course President Trump. They seem to be going

804
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: back to the two issues. One was the president's military

805
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:31,839
Speaker 1: action in Syria, which he defended strongly In number two, Uh,

806
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 1: NATO paying their fair share of thanks. All right, let's

807
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,600
Speaker 1: get a quick call in here when Shaun is a number.

808
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,239
Speaker 1: Let's go to Patrick Is in Pennsylvania, Patrick High. How

809
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 1: are you glad you called? Hey? Simperfire Sean, Yeah, how

810
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: are you simperfi good? Good? I'm good. I'm doing good.

811
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 1: Uh and I thank God every day that we have

812
00:51:55,400 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 1: President Trump and not President Clinton or President of there. Yeah. Right,

813
00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 1: um my, my thought on this, Uh was that some

814
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: some talk show. Uh. Some of the talk shows are

815
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 1: mentioning that President Trump uh uh, it wasn't gracious to

816
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:20,040
Speaker 1: China any kind of like put them out in the

817
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: public eye, so to speak. It's absolutely not true. I

818
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 1: know people that were there. I have my inside sources

819
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,719
Speaker 1: that they got along fabulously. They were scheduled to have

820
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: a forty five minute to one hour meeting. It ended

821
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 1: up going over five hours and it was a great

822
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,880
Speaker 1: personal connection. And uh, I think we're seeing maybe some

823
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,680
Speaker 1: of the fruits of this is now China is threatening

824
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 1: North Korea to take out their nuclear sights. So I

825
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: don't know who's saying it, but I mean, there's so

826
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 1: much fake news out there on NBC, ABCCBSC and in

827
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,319
Speaker 1: New York Times, Washington Post. Who knows anymore. People don't

828
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: know what they're talking about. They have no idea. I

829
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 1: know for a fact that's not true. Hey, listen, if

847
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 1: the President's comments he just made about Syria, and we'll

848
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 1: talk about why the President made those actions, how proportional

849
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: it was, and I'll explain how it is actually in

850
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 1: keeping with Trump's campaign promises, and that is to battle terror,

851
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: no protracted uh confrontations, no boots on the ground. All right,

852
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:11,880
Speaker 1: So we'll get to that next and we'll update you

853
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 1: a mash math Marshall Polston the story of the kid

854
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 1: at Rawlings College, Stritus Now till the top of the

855
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 1: our toll free, our telephone numbers eight hundred nine one

856
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: sean if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.

857
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 1: All right, So the President saying, Syria, no go the

858
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 1: way the media is handling this. Oh, the President, he's

859
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: you know, what was the point? The point was to

860
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:41,760
Speaker 1: stop the use of chemical weapons. And the President said

861
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 1: what he was going to take on terror where he

862
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 1: saw it, defeat isis. He said he has no interest

863
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:52,839
Speaker 1: in any protracted wars or conflict or occupation. So it's

864
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,800
Speaker 1: all within what he promised as a candidate. Now and

865
00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: a few minutes, we're gonna be joint. Remember we told

866
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,520
Speaker 1: you about this twenty year old kid. It's a sophomore

867
00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: at the school down in Florida, and he had a

868
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 1: professor of Middle Eastern humanities who told students Jesus's disciples

869
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: that Jesus disciples did not believe he was God and

870
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,279
Speaker 1: other things. Anyway, he's going to join us. Will update

871
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:18,240
Speaker 1: you on that in a few minutes. For first Brigide

872
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:22,399
Speaker 1: Gabriel is with us. Um I would be shocked if

873
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:27,239
Speaker 1: Bashi al Assad ever used chemical weapons again. And it's

874
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 1: in keeping with everything the President said he would do

875
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 1: fight terror, not have protracted wars, doesn't want boots on

876
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:37,360
Speaker 1: the ground, etcetera. So what do you think of the

877
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 1: president's position here? Well, the President is correct, Sean, We

878
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 1: America is back, and we needed to send a very

879
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 1: strong message not only to us had but also to

880
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 1: other agents of terror around the world that the use

881
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:54,919
Speaker 1: of chemical weapons will not be tolerated in any way,

882
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: shape or form. Listen, Syria is a lose lose situation

883
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: no matter what we do because us I know a

884
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 1: lot of people say, well, by bombing the the the

885
00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 1: weapons we basically are helping isis if we attack us, well,

886
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: no matter who we attack, and we have to take

887
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,280
Speaker 1: a stand in Syria and save the lives of innocent

888
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:17,239
Speaker 1: people from biological weapons. We have to remember that the

889
00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 1: base that we bombed in Syria, that same base is

890
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 1: used by husbald Law and also Iran's Gould Brigade. Can

891
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,400
Speaker 1: you imagine if husbald Law or Iran's brigades will have

892
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 1: access to these weapons of mass destruction. So we needed

893
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 1: to bomb this uh at this location and send a

894
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: very song message. It was a It was as well

895
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 1: as I run. It was a proportional response. North Korea

896
00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:44,719
Speaker 1: was obviously paying attention. Plutin was paying attention. We've seen

897
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 1: Rex Tillerson there all day, and we know that all

898
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: everybody in the world now knows. They may not like it.

899
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,279
Speaker 1: They you know, all the saber rattling in the world

900
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:58,920
Speaker 1: doesn't change it. But the reality is we're not leading

901
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: from behind. We're not drawing red lines in the sand

902
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:05,320
Speaker 1: that we don't meet. Me mean, we're not saying that

903
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: Assad doesn't have chemical weapons when we know in fact

904
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:11,360
Speaker 1: he does and he uses them. And so the president

905
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,719
Speaker 1: I would be shocked to see I'd ever used these

906
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 1: chemical weapons again, why no, he won't. And and many

907
00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,680
Speaker 1: other people around the world are going to think twice

908
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: before they use anything like this. And by the way,

909
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,600
Speaker 1: the Russians knew that we were gonna bomb. I mean,

910
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: we notified the Russians. The Russians could have sent uh

911
00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: missile missiles to stop us, and yet they did not.

912
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:34,160
Speaker 1: So that means even Russia, who knew that we were

913
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 1: gonna bomb this location, still don't the sideline and said, well,

914
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna pay attention, We're gonna wait, We're not gonna

915
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 1: get involved because they knew that even they knew that

916
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 1: the use of weapons of mass destruction was bad. Now

917
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:47,919
Speaker 1: there are words that they maybe have may have participated

918
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:50,880
Speaker 1: in it. We do not know yet, but in any case,

919
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,400
Speaker 1: they are taking notice as well. All right, let me

920
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:57,360
Speaker 1: move on, Bridget You've been working with Marshall Poulston and

921
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,120
Speaker 1: he was suspended from Rollins College for challenging a Muslim

922
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:05,320
Speaker 1: professor's anti Christian assertions, including the claim that Jesus is

923
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: crucifixtion never took place. Uh, welcome back, Marshall. And what

924
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: was the There were also other things in class that

925
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:17,480
Speaker 1: were said about terror. What were the exact quotes? Well,

926
00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: thank you Shawn again for having me on. I was

927
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 1: quite shocked. I mean the quotes involved the decapitation of

928
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 1: limbs basically, uh is a product of breaking Sharia law

929
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: or committing a crime under Islam. And a students said that,

930
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 1: And I was very surprised to hear the student basically

931
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 1: advocating for that, and it was very disturbing. So I

932
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: spoke up about it through an email and I sent

933
00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 1: her an email about that and UM a couple of

934
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,640
Speaker 1: other things, and she uh sent me over to the

935
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:52,720
Speaker 1: dean's office. Canceled the next class and ultimately I was suspended.

936
00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 1: She also tried to bring an injunction against me and

937
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:59,400
Speaker 1: she lied to the police, which was really reprehensible. But

938
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 1: ultimately I was reinstated obviously, and the UH injunction was

939
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: knocked out of court. Okay, so then and so you're reinstated.

940
00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 1: She's gone. But what was it about terror in particular

941
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: that she supported or jihad? I remember you told me

942
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 1: the last time you were on. Yeah, well it involved

943
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 1: basically well in regards to the student, the students had

944
00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: something along the lines of, you know, gaze or or

945
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 1: the thieves or or whatever the punishment may be, that

946
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 1: those individuals should and should either be decapitated or stoned

947
00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 1: or what have you. And her comments that have been

948
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: made in the past are really crazy. If you look

949
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: at some of the sworn statements by UH Dr Guagis

950
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 1: children who she was married to at one time. UH,

951
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: these people are real radicals. They had at one time

952
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 1: advocated and this is according to their children or to

953
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: his UH, to their children that Dr Guaji and her

954
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: my professor says that wanted to blow them up. And

955
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 1: you can go through the entire deposition. UH it's it's

956
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 1: really insane what these people have have said and who

957
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:11,680
Speaker 1: they've donated to, like Mercy International and other terrorists, well

958
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 1: a lot of people. But now go ahead. But now

959
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: what's happening is the school has been trying to vilify me.

960
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: And one of the things that has occurred is there's

961
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 1: a professor named Richard vocal Song who has been doing

962
01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: all over Facebook saying that well, this is really about

963
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: a sexual harassment case with another student, despite the fact

964
01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 1: that I was reinstated, despite the fact that the professor

965
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 1: is the one who got the injunction against me and

966
01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 1: that was thrown out of court. So he's been defaming

967
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: me all across Facebook. I said a letter to the

968
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: school and I haven't received any response about that, but

969
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 1: it's highly disappointing that there they have other professors now

970
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,600
Speaker 1: engaging in this sort of behavior, and you know, it's

971
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:53,600
Speaker 1: it's really outrageous that this goes on to silence people

972
01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 1: who are trying to speak their own mind and have

973
01:00:56,560 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 1: a freedom of speech. But you've you've studied this particular professor.

974
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:04,040
Speaker 1: You know what what Marshall here is describing as somebody

975
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 1: that probably our government should be investigating am I wrong

976
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: in assuming that I know you are not wrong. And

977
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 1: actually the FBI was looking at her and watching her.

978
01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 1: The FBI was working with the with the ex wife

979
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 1: of this man that she married, who was basically feeding

980
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:24,840
Speaker 1: the FBI information about how this professor Zafari is radicalizing

981
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:28,680
Speaker 1: the children into becoming hiddest. And not only that, Sean,

982
01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:32,800
Speaker 1: but a Professor Zahari was the spokesperson of the Islamic

983
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 1: Society of Central Florida. Now, as you well know, the

984
01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 1: Islamic Society is basically was listed as number one in

985
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 1: the unundicted co conspirators in the hobby Land Foundation trial

986
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: and mentioned as the number one organization and the Muslim

987
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 1: Brotherhood Project which plans on with the Muslim Brotherhood planning

988
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,960
Speaker 1: on destroying America from within. They were listed as number

989
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:58,480
Speaker 1: one on the list of the front organizations for the

990
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: Muslim Brotherhood in America. So her ties to terrorism are

991
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 1: very deep and are very wide. And this professor has

992
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 1: no business teaching on any American college. By the way,

993
01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 1: even though we she was forced to resign from the

994
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 1: college from Roland's College, she still teaches full time at

995
01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 1: Valencia College in Orlando, Florida, And we are now mobilizing

996
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,720
Speaker 1: to make sure that Valencia College will get her out

997
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 1: or force her to resign as well. Because we do

998
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 1: not need radical professors with ties to terrorism, brainwashing and

999
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 1: intimidating our students from college campuses. I encourage people to

1000
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 1: go to Act for America dot org and get involved

1001
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 1: to help us make sure that professors like that do

1002
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 1: not teach our students. Let me ask you, Marshall, I

1003
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: mean people reacting to you in any certain way on campus,

1004
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,959
Speaker 1: some people supporting you, some people angry at you. How's

1005
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 1: that going? Well? You know, I have to say this

1006
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 1: is a very very liberal campus. I would probably say

1007
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 1: of the students are liberal, but most of them are

1008
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 1: reacting positively to me because they know that the freedom

1009
01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 1: of speech is very important. And there have been voices,

1010
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 1: mainly from professors who have been trying to defend the university,

1011
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 1: and that's understandable coming from them, but look, I think

1012
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:17,440
Speaker 1: it's should in all fairness, students should have the freedom

1013
01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:19,600
Speaker 1: of religion and the freedom of speech. And when Jacob

1014
01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 1: Engle's first broke the story at the Central Florida Post,

1015
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 1: people called it fake news or what have you. But

1016
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 1: as time went on, they've had to try to evolve

1017
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:32,280
Speaker 1: or change their narrative because I was reinstated, the injunction

1018
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 1: was thrown out. She lied to the police. I mean,

1019
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,360
Speaker 1: you can't get more. But but you were very lucky

1020
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 1: because you actually had evidence in proof, because she was

1021
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:42,840
Speaker 1: claiming that you tried to intimidate her by looking into

1022
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 1: the classroom window, and you had evidence that you were

1023
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:49,360
Speaker 1: an hour away in a particular restaurant. Um, let me

1024
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: ask about all right, I understand you're reinstated, but where's

1025
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 1: the apology, where's the retraction, where's the where's the scholarship money?

1026
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 1: Because they you might suthe them right, and well, my

1027
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 1: attorney Ken Lewis and I just sent the school a

1028
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: letter yesterday. No response yet, but they we asked for

1029
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 1: a public apology from the school from both professors now,

1030
01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 1: especially UH professor Zufari and and we're hoping to hear

1031
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 1: something from them. If not, we're going to have to

1032
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:23,440
Speaker 1: consider uh further legal action, and we would probably do

1033
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 1: that anyway. Why would you consider legal action? You should

1034
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 1: absolutely get involved in legal action. And I think this

1035
01:04:29,040 --> 01:04:32,480
Speaker 1: is an abuse of their power. They jumped to conclusions,

1036
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,960
Speaker 1: They smeared and slandered you, and I think the school

1037
01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: at the very least should have come out with the

1038
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,520
Speaker 1: public apology the minute you were reinstated. And I don't

1039
01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 1: even know why that's an issue for them. It said

1040
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:46,240
Speaker 1: there might be these idiots over United Airlines. You know,

1041
01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 1: they pull this guy out in the aisle when all

1042
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 1: they had to do was offer you know, a hotel

1043
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,040
Speaker 1: room and five thousand dollars spending money, you would have

1044
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 1: had everybody racing for the door to get off that airplane.

1045
01:04:56,800 --> 01:05:00,200
Speaker 1: Now it's going to cost the millions, so go ahead. Well,

1046
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,400
Speaker 1: I was gonna say they have slandered me. And the

1047
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 1: worst part about it is I've been receiving so many

1048
01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 1: death threats and hate mail through Facebook, even in my email.

1049
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:12,640
Speaker 1: It's just crazy how how many people are telling me

1050
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 1: just horrible things, are cursing me out and saying, you know,

1051
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:19,640
Speaker 1: I can't even say it on the air, it's so horrible.

1052
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 1: All right, we gotta take a break here, a right

1053
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:25,479
Speaker 1: news round up information overload toll free, our telephone numbers

1054
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 1: eight D one, Sean. It's amazing how everybody has a

1055
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 1: comment on this United Airlines dragging this poor guy down

1056
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 1: the aisle because United Airlines was stupid and dumb and

1057
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: wouldn't up the ante and and get to the price

1058
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:43,400
Speaker 1: point where somebody would say, all right, I'll take the

1059
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: four flights, I'll take the hotel room and the two

1060
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:49,640
Speaker 1: thousand dollars spending. Well, now they're gonna end up making

1061
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:54,800
Speaker 1: paying millions and their stock plummeted yesterday. Uh here's the CEO,

1062
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:59,520
Speaker 1: Oscar Moonez is the United Airlines CEO, and what he

1063
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 1: had to say about what did you think when you

1064
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 1: saw that video of a man being dragged off of

1065
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 1: one of your planes? Good morning and thank you for

1066
01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,240
Speaker 1: having me. It's not so much what I thought. That's

1067
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 1: what I felt. Probably the word of shame comes to mind.

1068
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,400
Speaker 1: You know, as I think about our business and our people. Um,

1069
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,320
Speaker 1: the first thing I think is important to say is

1070
01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:26,160
Speaker 1: to apologize to Dr dow Um, his family, the passengers

1071
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 1: on that flight. Our customers are employees. That is not

1072
01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 1: who our family at United is. And you saw us

1073
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 1: at a bad moment and this can never, will never

1074
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,720
Speaker 1: happen again on a United Airlines flight. That's my premise

1075
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: and that's my promise. Why not communicate that shame as

1076
01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:51,680
Speaker 1: you call it initially in your initial apology. In your

1077
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:57,440
Speaker 1: initial statement you apologized for reaccommodating passengers, and in your

1078
01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 1: internal notes to your employees you talked about a belligerent

1079
01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 1: and disruptive passenger. Why did it take until Tuesday to

1080
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:11,000
Speaker 1: offer a more full hearted apology. I think my first

1081
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 1: reaction to most fissues is to get the facts and circumstances,

1082
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:20,560
Speaker 1: and of the initial my initial words fell short of

1083
01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:27,000
Speaker 1: truly expressing what we were feeling. And that's something that

1084
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 1: I've learned from the expression of apology and specific to

1085
01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 1: the folks I mentioned before as an important part of

1086
01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:41,120
Speaker 1: a conversation like this, because again that shame and embarrassment

1087
01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:43,360
Speaker 1: was pretty palpable for me and for a lot of

1088
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 1: our family. Yeah, well you should have said at the beginning,

1089
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:49,880
Speaker 1: you big dope. I mean, you're just so stupid. For example,

1090
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:52,120
Speaker 1: if you watched it the first time, wasn't of the

1091
01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: passenger as he's being dragged off the point he had

1092
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 1: out of time? God, Oh my god, oh my god,

1093
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: what are you doing? This is Oh my god, look

1094
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:25,920
Speaker 1: at what you're doing. Oh my god. You know, I

1095
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,559
Speaker 1: gotta tell you. The only person that would have deserved

1096
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 1: that treatment as Rick Hunger. I mean that's usually how

1097
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 1: I feel when you dragged me out of the studio. No,

1098
01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: I don't break you out of the studio. Rick Hunger

1099
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,680
Speaker 1: is with us, of course. He's the co host of

1100
01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,800
Speaker 1: The Stealing Unger Show on Serious XM. Jonathan Gillham, host

1101
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:45,840
Speaker 1: of The Experts, Navy Seal former Navy SELPI agent. Are

1102
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:49,880
Speaker 1: you still you still have your air marshal license? No? No,

1103
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:52,920
Speaker 1: it's a your federal officer. So when you leave federal government,

1104
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:54,600
Speaker 1: when you leave that job, it's like go back to

1105
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 1: But I will tell you this. I guarantee you the

1106
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 1: lady that was yelling seeing how wrong it was but

1107
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:01,680
Speaker 1: was not offering up her seat was a liberal. I

1108
01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:04,479
Speaker 1: can guarantee that this is so wrong, but I'm not

1109
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 1: giving them my seat. You know, this is a very

1110
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 1: simple fix. Now they're losing millions and millions of dollars

1111
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: here because this is how you do. You got a

1112
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,719
Speaker 1: full plane of passenger, you overbooked the flight. I understand

1113
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 1: that's the practice. Whatever. Okay, you go in and you say, okay,

1114
01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,960
Speaker 1: we'll give you eight hundred dollars each to leave, And

1115
01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 1: apparently they were gonna do it, but then it didn't

1116
01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 1: work out. Alright. So then you go in and you say,

1117
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:29,880
Speaker 1: all right, I'll give you a thousand. I'll give you

1118
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:32,920
Speaker 1: four airline tickets anywhere United flies, and we'll pay for

1119
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 1: your hotel, and we'll give in spending money. Okay, no takers,

1120
01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 1: We'll give you eight tickets, a five star hotel and

1121
01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:43,519
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars. Sooner or later, someone's gonna take it.

1122
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna point. But you know what. United never promised

1123
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:50,960
Speaker 1: friendly people. They only promised friend these guys. Okay, well

1124
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:53,080
Speaker 1: they were down on the ground. See if it was

1125
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:57,479
Speaker 1: you longer, I wouldn't defendend I want to. I want

1126
01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 1: to defended the United Airlines. Alwan said he totally deserves it.

1127
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:04,080
Speaker 1: He probably was talking about Obama, his love for Obama.

1128
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:07,160
Speaker 1: That guy was one of the most outrageous things I've

1129
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,799
Speaker 1: seen in quite some time. How are people that stupid?

1130
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:13,360
Speaker 1: And you can be the all kiddings aside. I did

1131
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,800
Speaker 1: call my broker and tell him and told him to

1132
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,960
Speaker 1: sell whatever United stock I might have a I was

1133
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:21,920
Speaker 1: offended by what they did to this. So you took

1134
01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: a hit, but yeah, I'm sure I did. But you

1135
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: know what it was about. If a CEO is that stupid.

1136
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 1: This does not bode well for the future of a company,

1137
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 1: and I don't want to hold their stock. I did

1138
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:34,479
Speaker 1: the same thing, but and I realized I don't have

1139
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:37,439
Speaker 1: a broke or worst stock. So but I will tell

1140
01:10:37,439 --> 01:10:41,799
Speaker 1: you this, a lot of people don't know how wealthy

1141
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:47,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's almost up there with Trump. No, no, no,

1142
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:51,799
Speaker 1: I'm not even close to you. Handity coming. So here's

1143
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 1: the thing about this whole situation. I talked about this

1144
01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:56,240
Speaker 1: last night on my show The Experts on Facebook clause

1145
01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,080
Speaker 1: the this. I think we start with a passenger. I

1146
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:02,800
Speaker 1: I you know, if I'm approached by law enforcement, whether

1147
01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:05,880
Speaker 1: I think he was, they were not right approaching him. However,

1148
01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go to the extreme that I'm pulled

1149
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:11,160
Speaker 1: off a drug off a plane. He the way society is,

1150
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 1: people do that and over dramatised stuff. I think that

1151
01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:18,360
Speaker 1: this was a civil affair between a company and a passenger,

1152
01:11:18,880 --> 01:11:21,760
Speaker 1: and the company should have handled that. They handled it wrong,

1153
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:24,320
Speaker 1: which is an example of where the airline industry is

1154
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: in this day and age. It's no longer customer service.

1155
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,000
Speaker 1: It's now you have to be here, so we're gonna

1156
01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:30,720
Speaker 1: take advantage of you. Know what this reminds me of,

1157
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 1: and this is where Unker and I are gonna separate

1158
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:35,360
Speaker 1: our agreement here. It reminds me of government. It's like

1159
01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 1: you go to the the the d m V, which

1160
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,640
Speaker 1: is a nightmare. Although my local DMV has gotten a

1161
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:45,760
Speaker 1: little bit better. I was there not that long ago.

1162
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:47,360
Speaker 1: Now they're gonna let you cut in line because you

1163
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 1: said that, right, No, no, no, I didn't cut in line.

1164
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,799
Speaker 1: But there was a very helpful fan that was working

1165
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,360
Speaker 1: there that that it just said, oh, mister Hannity, come

1166
01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:57,960
Speaker 1: this way, which is no, I didn't get special treatment.

1167
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,439
Speaker 1: I didn't cut the line. Don't turn me into us snob.

1168
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 1: You know, you know what I but you know there

1169
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 1: are people in our business that call into it. Well,

1170
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:09,559
Speaker 1: I'd like to go to the concert. I would never

1171
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 1: do that. You do that. I don't do that. I

1172
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,160
Speaker 1: know people that do. I'm like, how do you not

1173
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,280
Speaker 1: pay your way for tickets. I'll give you an example.

1174
01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 1: Remember when Governor Patterson got in trouble over the Yankee

1175
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:24,720
Speaker 1: game when he was governor. That same game, I went

1176
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,000
Speaker 1: to stubub and I bought my tickets. So I'm talking

1177
01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:29,840
Speaker 1: about it on the air. When when the governor got

1178
01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:31,519
Speaker 1: caught and cut in trouble. I'm like, well, I went

1179
01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:34,040
Speaker 1: to that game. I bought my tickets on stubb Up.

1180
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 1: Randy Levine of the Yankees calls me. He goes, you

1181
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 1: big dope, Why don't you just call me? I said,

1182
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:41,679
Speaker 1: because I don't ask for free stuff. He goes, actually

1183
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:43,600
Speaker 1: happened to the mayor of Los Angeles too, He was

1184
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:47,559
Speaker 1: getting free What is this free stuff? And the life

1185
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,479
Speaker 1: isn't free? You pay your way? And then he goes, well,

1186
01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 1: I could have gotten to you for price, I said,

1187
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 1: but then I'll be taking advantage of our friendship. I

1188
01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 1: don't believe in doing that. It's different if you're invited.

1189
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:58,720
Speaker 1: If if Randy leviing college up and says I'd love

1190
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,240
Speaker 1: you to come to the game. I'm going as a

1191
01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 1: friend of Like, if I'm going to a game and

1192
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:04,880
Speaker 1: I'm by you guys and I have tickets, you're my guests,

1193
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:06,960
Speaker 1: that would be different. But he didn't invite me to

1194
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:09,599
Speaker 1: the game, So I want to stop help. By the way,

1195
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,360
Speaker 1: stop up is the greatest thing in the world, isn't it. Yeah,

1196
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 1: it really is overcharged, But at least you got good seats. Yeah,

1197
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 1: you can get any seat you want, any price range

1198
01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:20,760
Speaker 1: you want. But remember liberals like you were fighting called

1199
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 1: it's ticket scalping. It's not ticket scalping. Ticket scalping. If

1200
01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 1: you buy them, you're allowed to resell them and what.

1201
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,800
Speaker 1: But for years it was illegal because the liberals, not

1202
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:34,360
Speaker 1: because the liberals. I believe it was illegal during some

1203
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 1: Republican administrations. You know, when you said that that the

1204
01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 1: things aren't free in life. I've here in the distance

1205
01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:43,680
Speaker 1: through the window, the same screaming that I heard the

1206
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,760
Speaker 1: lady screaming on the plane. All the liberals out there,

1207
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:50,040
Speaker 1: they cannot believe that stuff is not free, and they're

1208
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:54,720
Speaker 1: screaming anything, you know, a political disagreement, right, well, yeah,

1209
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,519
Speaker 1: I mean John's wearing a blue shirt. Sean apparently has

1210
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,800
Speaker 1: become state that seems to be okay, it seems to

1211
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:06,200
Speaker 1: be black color blue and figures. Um, well, what do

1212
01:14:06,280 --> 01:14:09,440
Speaker 1: you make of Susan Rice. She lied about bo Bergdahl

1213
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,680
Speaker 1: being you know, he served with honor and distinction. No,

1214
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:16,679
Speaker 1: he got troops killed because he deserted. And she lied

1215
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 1: five times on Sunday shows. We know the timeline. Now

1216
01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 1: she lied through her teeth, and they knew she lied

1217
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 1: about not knowing anything about what happened with surveillance and

1218
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 1: I'm asking and then had to admit it because she

1219
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,600
Speaker 1: knew she was going to be found out and admit it.

1220
01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:32,760
Speaker 1: We had this conversation, did so admit it? No, she

1221
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:35,519
Speaker 1: didn't play that whole day, not the piece that you choose,

1222
01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,320
Speaker 1: the whole ding. You have to talk to Rae earlier.

1223
01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,200
Speaker 1: She said, I don't know a thing, No to what question.

1224
01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 1: Play that, but play it with the question. You don't

1225
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,560
Speaker 1: have it with the question that it doesn't have it

1226
01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 1: with the question and the answer does not exist together.

1227
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:51,800
Speaker 1: Therefore we cannot play it. Mr Hunger, this is not

1228
01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 1: some little bit trick. You have to put it into context.

1229
01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,120
Speaker 1: This is your way of getting out of checkmate, because

1230
01:14:57,160 --> 01:15:01,719
Speaker 1: you know she said nothing about it is not Hunger

1231
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:03,280
Speaker 1: is an attorney, so you have to talk to him

1232
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:06,720
Speaker 1: like an attorney. The preponderance of the evidence points out

1233
01:15:07,080 --> 01:15:10,160
Speaker 1: she's a liar. Mother wanted to call me, Okay, Ricky,

1234
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:14,920
Speaker 1: I'll call you Ricky. The preponderance of the evidence is

1235
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 1: that she's a liar. And in the South, we say

1236
01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 1: if it looks like a chicken and it cooks like

1237
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:22,880
Speaker 1: a chicken. By the way, it's supposed to be a duck.

1238
01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,680
Speaker 1: I don't know what part of the South that just

1239
01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:29,200
Speaker 1: I rest my case. We all rest our. Well, you

1240
01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:32,160
Speaker 1: gotta say that Trump has momentum. He had a good week.

1241
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:34,280
Speaker 1: You had a great week. And now what did I do?

1242
01:15:34,439 --> 01:15:37,479
Speaker 1: Tell everybody what I did? After the Syria attack? You

1243
01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:41,559
Speaker 1: wrote me a nice note? Didn't that said? Yes? How

1244
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,880
Speaker 1: can people? How come some of my friends to say no,

1245
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 1: he should never have done this because they don't understand Syria.

1246
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,600
Speaker 1: They don't understand. Look, the truth is, we don't have

1247
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:53,200
Speaker 1: an ally if you really want to look at it realistically, Syria,

1248
01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,760
Speaker 1: we have no ally. A sods on our ally, the

1249
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:59,080
Speaker 1: rebels on our allies. The Isis is not our ally.

1250
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:01,439
Speaker 1: Rush is not our We don't have an ally there.

1251
01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:05,759
Speaker 1: And he's keeping every campaign promised. He he's fighting terror

1252
01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:09,600
Speaker 1: here against children. B he's not occupying. See, he's not

1253
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,320
Speaker 1: putting boots on the grounds, but he is drawing a

1254
01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:14,479
Speaker 1: line and means it. And now the world is like

1255
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 1: bubbling and fizzing because America has now changed dramatically since

1256
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 1: you're cowardly President, was there your gutlass? President? Was there?

1257
01:16:22,920 --> 01:16:28,600
Speaker 1: I listen? I think I disagreed with President Obama on

1258
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 1: the Syria policy. I was always very clear about that,

1259
01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 1: and I if I'm going to criticize this president on

1260
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:37,200
Speaker 1: this issue for anything, I might have gone a little further.

1261
01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 1: That's the thing he did. So this is where we're

1262
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:42,240
Speaker 1: I think we're starting to get further. Got Corset's done,

1263
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:45,639
Speaker 1: and my inside that that healthcare is not far away

1264
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:48,320
Speaker 1: from being well. I'm hearing that too. Unfortunately, I think

1265
01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:51,280
Speaker 1: healthcare is going to hurt the very people he promised.

1266
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:54,080
Speaker 1: But not at all, Yes, and not at all. Listen

1267
01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:55,960
Speaker 1: to my show tonight, stealing on how do we use

1268
01:16:56,800 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 1: how health care? All of a sudden he did it?

1269
01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 1: What do I get blamed for everything? All? Right? As

1270
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:06,360
Speaker 1: we roll along, Sean Hannity Show nine one, Shawn, as

1271
01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 1: we continue our news round up Information overload, Rick Oner,

1272
01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:12,000
Speaker 1: Jonathan Gillham with us the Secretary of State Rex Tillerson

1273
01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:15,040
Speaker 1: meeting with Putin and his representatives in Russia. You know

1274
01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:17,519
Speaker 1: what that means that the people over at NBC you're

1275
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 1: gonna be claiming this is more evidence that Putin orchestrated

1276
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 1: the Syrian gas attacks against children so that it can

1277
01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:28,520
Speaker 1: make Trump look good by sending in fifty nine Tomahawk

1278
01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:32,200
Speaker 1: missiles and distract the press. You're laughing. Those are your peeps,

1279
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,720
Speaker 1: These are your people. If that's what they say, then

1280
01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:38,240
Speaker 1: they're they're nuts. You want to hear it? Yeah, listen

1281
01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 1: to this. Wouldn't that be nice if it was just completely, totally,

1282
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:49,400
Speaker 1: absolutely impossible to suspect that Vladimir Putin orchestrated what happened

1283
01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 1: in Syria this week so that his friend in the

1284
01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:56,000
Speaker 1: White House could have a big night with missiles and

1285
01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:59,120
Speaker 1: all of the praise he's picked up over the last

1286
01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 1: twenty four hours. Wouldn't it be so nice if you couldn't,

1287
01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:07,040
Speaker 1: even in your wildest dreams, imagine a scenario like them.

1288
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:08,760
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be great if we could go back to

1289
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: Wag the Dog being a semi and being being a sitcom,

1290
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:17,799
Speaker 1: you know exactly. And I don't know what it is chances,

1291
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:20,519
Speaker 1: I don't know, but what I don't think it's a

1292
01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:24,040
Speaker 1: zero percent chance. And it used to be with every

1293
01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:27,560
Speaker 1: other president prior to Donald Trump. Yeah, I'm gonna you know,

1294
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 1: these are words that are painful for me to say.

1295
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:34,479
Speaker 1: Don't that's the guy that doesn't wear the same pair

1296
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:38,920
Speaker 1: of socks twice I don't know. Lord knows that I

1297
01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,439
Speaker 1: tend to be very critical of President Trump. But you

1298
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:43,920
Speaker 1: know what, if you're gonna be critical when he does

1299
01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 1: something right, i'd have to be just care that. The liberals,

1300
01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:48,640
Speaker 1: but I mean, it's not even I don't even need

1301
01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:51,120
Speaker 1: a compliment or they don't have to agree on the bombing.

1302
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:54,559
Speaker 1: Of Their position is We're gonna let children get gassed

1303
01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:56,800
Speaker 1: with chemical weapons and do nothing. I don't believe. I

1304
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,639
Speaker 1: think America has not. I don't want troops on the ground.

1305
01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:01,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the world's police force. But

1306
01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:06,280
Speaker 1: not to do anything is really inexcusable. Okay, they can

1307
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:09,479
Speaker 1: disagree on that. But to make up for eight months,

1308
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:12,880
Speaker 1: your team has been talking about a Russia putin Trump

1309
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:16,599
Speaker 1: campaign conspiracy. Tell me any evidence that exists. There's more

1310
01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:18,439
Speaker 1: that I haven't seen enough. I'll tell you that. Have

1311
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:21,680
Speaker 1: you seen anything? Uh yeah, I've seen a few things. Okay, Well,

1312
01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:23,600
Speaker 1: now I'm not gonna tell you what I'm seeing. I

1313
01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:27,360
Speaker 1: can't do that, however, But I am saying, but listen

1314
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:30,120
Speaker 1: to everything I'm saying. I haven't seen enough. But by

1315
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:33,040
Speaker 1: the same token, you keep going after Susan Rice. You

1316
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:36,800
Speaker 1: haven't seen any evidence either. I think we have talked

1317
01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:38,439
Speaker 1: to the people that have well, then you and I

1318
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 1: both have sources. I have a feeling minor he are

1319
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 1: good but mine are good to mine or in power

1320
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:49,320
Speaker 1: mine actually have access to this stuff. Rick sources are

1321
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 1: seeing in. Somebody from CNN is telling me that this

1322
01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:54,760
Speaker 1: is the way it goes. Rick calls Rachel Matto on

1323
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:56,920
Speaker 1: the outline and saying, Hey, Rachel, can you give me

1324
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,599
Speaker 1: an update on this. We have our friends. I don't

1325
01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,760
Speaker 1: care that they have liberal voices, but the conspiracy thing

1326
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 1: under the banner of NBC News is so bizarre to me.

1327
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:08,720
Speaker 1: If we're going to go off of their things, it

1328
01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:10,839
Speaker 1: is an opinion show. I think it's a silly opinion.

1329
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:12,640
Speaker 1: But if we're gonna go off, if we're gonna go

1330
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 1: off their theories, it's just as likely that CNN and

1331
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:16,840
Speaker 1: the rest of the mainstream media are the ones who

1332
01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:19,840
Speaker 1: did the gassing so they could force Trump into endo acting.

1333
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it looks no evidence, and Admiral Rodgers, James Comey,

1334
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:29,559
Speaker 1: James Clapper all said there's no evidence, none, zero zip

1335
01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:32,400
Speaker 1: Let it play out. I'm saying that's playing out for

1336
01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:35,360
Speaker 1: eight months. They haven't even really had they just started

1337
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:39,280
Speaker 1: Senate hearings in the Intelligence Committee there and there, or

1338
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,920
Speaker 1: we would have seen. Now let's see what the hearing is.

1339
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:46,040
Speaker 1: That's not true. Man is guilty or no? Yeah, I

1340
01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:48,439
Speaker 1: gotta take a break. Guys, good to see it. When

1341
01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:51,200
Speaker 1: we come back, wide open telephones and we will continue.

1342
01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:53,360
Speaker 1: Wait before we get to your calls here, which we

1343
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 1: will in a second. I want to introduce to you

1344
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:58,040
Speaker 1: Aaron near Bon as WELLOS. He's the founder of Troops

1345
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 1: Direct and every week, uh, he hears from commanders in

1346
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:05,360
Speaker 1: the field that are serving in Afghanistan, Africa and elsewhere,

1347
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:07,720
Speaker 1: and they're calling to ask for things that they're have

1348
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:11,880
Speaker 1: in trouble getting through normal military bureaucratic channels. And you know,

1349
01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 1: he fills these specific requests from commanders in the field,

1350
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:18,720
Speaker 1: everything from tourniquets and I protection and gun lubri can.

1351
01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:20,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's ridiculous that we don't take care of

1352
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:23,759
Speaker 1: these guys. I had a chance to meet Aaron recently

1353
01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,240
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to give you a chance to

1354
01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:27,720
Speaker 1: plug your what you're doing and how people can help

1355
01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:30,240
Speaker 1: make a difference. Sean, thanks for having me on. You

1356
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:35,560
Speaker 1: forgot advanced life support kits for helicopter, metavac units. You

1357
01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:41,760
Speaker 1: forgot ballistic helmets, uniforms, laser range finders, sniper systems for

1358
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:46,439
Speaker 1: our units that are heading into uh Iraq, potentially the

1359
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 1: Korea's and everywhere else. It's scary times right now for

1360
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:54,080
Speaker 1: our troops and they are under equipped. Unfortunately. Well, hopefully

1361
01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 1: this is all going to change after this hopeful health

1362
01:21:57,360 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 1: care bill gets done. Then they're gonna move into their

1363
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:03,920
Speaker 1: spending bill and the budget, and that's a big part

1364
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:05,960
Speaker 1: of the Trump agenda, to spend more money on the

1365
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 1: military and get bullets and ammunition and everything else that

1366
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 1: they need because you know, body armor is a big problem,

1367
01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:16,840
Speaker 1: and and you know Special Operation Forces they're missing some

1368
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 1: of their military supplies on back order. It's ridiculous. No,

1369
01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 1: you're you're absolutely right, Sean. Uh But the thing remembers that,

1370
01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:27,600
Speaker 1: uh yeah, Trump wants to increase spending on defense, but

1371
01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:30,720
Speaker 1: our adversaries know that that's not going to happen in

1372
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,720
Speaker 1: the first hundred days. It's gonna take years if got

1373
01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:37,360
Speaker 1: his entire administration to affect that. And it will buy

1374
01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:40,080
Speaker 1: ships and it will buy jets, but the war fighter,

1375
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 1: the peacekeeper in the dirt on the border of Iraq

1376
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 1: and Syria or somewhere in Afghanistan is going to be

1377
01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:49,240
Speaker 1: the last individual to get it. And I will tell

1378
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:51,880
Speaker 1: you that in the last fourteen days, Sean, these are

1379

Speaker 1: and we are supplying them as a nonprofit organization at

1383
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 1: zero expense to that unit because they need to scare

1384
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 1: they can't get it through the supply line and we

1385
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,960

1427
01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:21,400
Speaker 1: Carolina on the Sean Hannity Show. What's up? You know?

1428
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 1: I was in Charleston. Do you ever go to that

1429
01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 1: steakhouse called Halls in there in Charleston. We got a

1430
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,080
Speaker 1: few restaurants down here. Did you have a hear of

1431
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:32,000
Speaker 1: Halls Steakhouse? Yeah? I went there. I went there. I

1432
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:35,880
Speaker 1: have food is fantastic. The place was great everything. If

1433
01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:37,640
Speaker 1: you don't have good food in Charleston, you get run

1434
01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:41,040
Speaker 1: out of town. I definitely believe it. We're very very

1435
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:44,040
Speaker 1: I've worked about twenty years of food and beverage in

1436
01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 1: Charleston myself. Yes, sir, what's so? What's on your mind today?

1437
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,760
Speaker 1: My friend? What's up? What Trump's golf? Do we need

1438
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:51,560
Speaker 1: to put a term limit on how many times he

1439
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 1: can play golf in in a week or a month?

1440
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:57,960
Speaker 1: You know, I've been down to Mara Lago once to

1441
01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 1: do an interview, only one time. I've never been to

1442
01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: a Trump hotel, a Trump golf course. I've never taken

1443
01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:08,639
Speaker 1: anything from Trump. I I have a collection of Trump ties,

1444
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,880
Speaker 1: which you can buy in the Trump Tower lobby. But

1445
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,479
Speaker 1: short of that, I don't get anything from Trump. I

1446
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,000
Speaker 1: don't want anything from Trump. I'm gonna tell you this.

1447
01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:21,599
Speaker 1: When he's down there, he's working. Watch what he does

1448
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:23,840
Speaker 1: every day now if he takes two hours out of

1449
01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:26,639
Speaker 1: his day, because this is really like the White House

1450
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:28,680
Speaker 1: South for him. I know a lot of people are

1451
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:31,360
Speaker 1: gonna say, well, Hannity, you got on Obama for playing golf.

1452
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 1: Obama never accomplished anything. Trump's busy working, So we're giving

1453
01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:37,799
Speaker 1: his critics all this ammunition for him to use against

1454
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,679
Speaker 1: him about the money he's spending on these weekly trips

1455
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,439
Speaker 1: Army Navy country clubs right across the belt Way. He

1456
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:45,680
Speaker 1: can go play golf there, Yeah, he probably can, But

1457
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,160
Speaker 1: you can't exactly play like I do in forty degree

1458
01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,439
Speaker 1: I actually play in thirty five forty degree weather. How

1459
01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,280
Speaker 1: stupid am I? Because I used to walk Army Navy

1460
01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:55,920
Speaker 1: Country Club, which there in Arlington, Virginia. Well, I'm not

1461
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:57,560
Speaker 1: a good enough golfer, so I don't you know, it

1462
01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:00,240
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. I could care less about golf.

1463
01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:02,400
Speaker 1: It's not the most important thing in my life. I

1464
01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:07,280
Speaker 1: usually go to hang out with my usually I did.

1465
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,000
Speaker 1: I played the I played the ocean course and I

1466
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:13,479
Speaker 1: got a birdie on seventeen. I played the ocean course

1467
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,080
Speaker 1: out there. I got totally worn out and it wasn't

1468
01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:20,800
Speaker 1: even a breezy day if it's a tough course. But

1469
01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:22,680
Speaker 1: I did all right. I drive the ball really well.

1470
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,120
Speaker 1: My irons are pretty good. Listen. I can't ship, I

1471
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:26,720
Speaker 1: can't put, and I can't get out of sand. So

1472
01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:28,960
Speaker 1: I'm never going to be a good golfer, alright, but

1473
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:33,519
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Uh. Michelle is in Gary, North Carolina. What's up, Michelle?

1474
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:36,080
Speaker 1: How are you hey? I'm doing great, Sean, how are

1475
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,840
Speaker 1: you doing? I'm good? What's going on? Yesterday? When I

1476
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:41,120
Speaker 1: was listening to your show, you were talking about McCain

1477
01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:42,920
Speaker 1: and Graham and just kind of what is going on

1478
01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:45,600
Speaker 1: in their minds. And I think I think them and

1479
01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:48,600
Speaker 1: everybody else that's on the left, anybody that is not

1480
01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:52,200
Speaker 1: in supportive Trump, is desperate for him to be hated

1481
01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:55,760
Speaker 1: by the American people because they are so fearful that

1482
01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:58,680
Speaker 1: they know once his entire cabinet is in and we

1483
01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 1: can get all of the spies and all the people

1484
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,439
Speaker 1: that are um you know, trying to destroy him as

1485
01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:05,400
Speaker 1: he tries to build up our country, once he can

1486
01:28:05,439 --> 01:28:07,559
Speaker 1: get them out of the White House, he is going

1487
01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:12,120
Speaker 1: to unveil absolutely what's been happening in our government, which

1488
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 1: is not for the good of the American people. And

1489
01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:17,400
Speaker 1: I think everyone who wants to be a career politician,

1490
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,760
Speaker 1: who is in it only for themselves, who does not

1491
01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:23,760
Speaker 1: care about the United States remaining a constitutional republic, every

1492
01:28:23,800 --> 01:28:26,000
Speaker 1: one of those people they need to get out. And

1493
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,360
Speaker 1: they're so fearful that the American people are going to

1494
01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 1: see that once all this is you know, his um

1495
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:34,840
Speaker 1: once he's allowed to actually have the power that he needs,

1496
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:37,800
Speaker 1: that they're going to do everything to jog him down.

1497
01:28:38,080 --> 01:28:41,679
Speaker 1: John McCain said I don't see this happening in the future,

1498
01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:46,920
Speaker 1: meaning Trump getting TV time. Uh in we will go back.

1499
01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:49,759
Speaker 1: And I'm like, really do you want? You know, here's

1500
01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:54,160
Speaker 1: a historic opportunity to change the country for the better.

1501
01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:56,679
Speaker 1: And you know what, I don't know who's gonna become

1502
01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 1: a Democrat faster him or Lindsey Graham, but one of

1503
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:02,559
Speaker 1: them anyway, I I agree. And I think the other

1504
01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:06,240
Speaker 1: thing is this is no longer even between Democrats and Republicans.

1505
01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:09,560
Speaker 1: This is really becoming between good and evil. And I

1506
01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:12,800
Speaker 1: just think it's the difference between the swamp and that

1507
01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:16,160
Speaker 1: Trump wants to drain the swamp. And when he drains

1508
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:18,599
Speaker 1: the swamp, well, that means a lot of Republicans are

1509
01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:20,479
Speaker 1: caught up in the swamp too. But I gotta run

1510
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:21,880
Speaker 1: eight one. Shawn
