But not for the whole show, not 65 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: for a whole period of time here, which I did 66 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: on Wednesday or Tuesday or whatever day last week, and 67 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do again here today. Um, I'd rather talk 68 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: about the things that motivate me. You know what really 69 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 1: motivated me in the election, and I said it every day, 70 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: was okay, fifty million Americans and poverty, fifty million on 71 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: food stamps and you know, Americans out of the labor force, 72 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: worst recovery since the forties, double the national debt, the 73 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: lowest home ownership rate in fifty one years. If we 74 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: can get I believe what I supported in the election, 75 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: the Trump agenda through, We're gonna help all those people 76 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: that are suffering because of bad government policies. That's the 77 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: you have no idea. That's what motivated me so much 78 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: in the campaign, motivates me today. But if I don't 79 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: stay on the air, I won't be able to say 80 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 1: any of these things to you, and I'll be driving 81 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: around in a car by myself. I guess I'll build 82 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: a camera at home and I'll just go on TV 83 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: and talk to myself. Maybe I'll put it on, you know, 84 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: maybe I'll put it on. I don't know. I can 85 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: you put it on YouTube live or no Facebook live. 86 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: I can do that, right, But that's not what I 87 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: want to do. And I want to spend some time 88 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: today telling you I'm I never read so many articles 89 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: in my life over the time I was off about 90 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: how I'm being fired, and how I'm not gonna be 91 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: on the air, and how my career is over, and 92 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: how even some of the the people that are supposedly 93 00:04:54,920 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: with conservative publications I deserve it. Why I'm gonna get 94 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: into this today. And since I don't know, maybe a week, 95 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,239 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, I don't even remember anymore, But there 96 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 1: has been there's a George Soros, Hillary Clinton supported group 97 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars. Look 98 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: at Stinger, He's dying that Linda started the show that 99 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: have for many many years now been out there and 100 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: have been targeting conservatives very o Lynsky like. What they 101 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: do is they take one at a time, one voice 102 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: at a time. Now they've gone after Dr Laura, and 103 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: they've gone after They recently went after O'Reilly and O'Reilly 104 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: lost a couple of hundred advertisers. Oriley's not on Fox 105 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: News anymore, is he. They went after Rush and the 106 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: whole controversy, whatever the Sandra Fluck controversy. They went after 107 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: Beck in the past, the same group that pointed out 108 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: that don Imus, you know, it didn't matter that don 109 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: Imis wanted to apologize that he went to meet with 110 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: the people at Rusk Rutger's, that he said something stupid. Okay, 111 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: he admitted it was stupid, it was dumb, it was ignorant. 112 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: I apologize and I want to make it right. That's 113 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: not enough in this day and age. They want every 114 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: conservative voice silence. That's the environment we all work in 115 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: every day. And I've told you now for many years 116 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: something that is a reality of being a conservative in 117 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: the media today, and now that it is hitting critical 118 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: mass for me, I will remind you what I've been 119 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: telling you is there are people people whose entire job 120 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: that they get paid to do. And we even know 121 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: who some of them, and many of them are. Their 122 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: job is to monitor every conservative on the radio, Annity Levine, 123 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: Laura Ingram, Rush Limbaugh, all of us in the hopes 124 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: that a conservative says one dumb thing, one word, one phrase, 125 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: one paragraph, and often they actually purposefully take it out 126 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: of context in the hopes that they can begin the 127 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: effort of an advertising campaign. You attack the advertisers of 128 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: a show, and that is that the single quickest way 129 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: to destroy the show's viability. And once it becomes financially 130 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: not viable, and then all of a sudden, the people 131 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: that higher conservatives and will and admits it worth it 132 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: on springing X, Y or Z. And that's what's happening 133 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: to me now. And I have now, by the way, 134 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: the us a A has come back on the Hannity 135 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: Show as what's the other name of that other advertiser 136 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: apparently has come back to right Peloton because and the 137 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: only reason that happened is because I went out and 138 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: told you what was happening to me, and you responded 139 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: at a level that has blown me and everybody in 140 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: my life away. I frankly don't think I deserve it, 141 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: and some of you say, yeah, that's for sure. Inasmuch 142 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: as I'm very, very humbled by it all. I take 143 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: the job seriously. I don't take myself seriously. But when 144 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: you have a coordinated effort right now that is going 145 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: on in the country to silence and take out the 146 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: Fox News channel the way it's coordinated now, the group, 147 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: the Sorrows Clinton Group, is not calling it a boycott 148 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: in my case, because they don't have anything, so they 149 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 1: just call me horrible names, take things I've said out 150 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: of context, lie, and all these and again Sorrows. Other 151 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: people funded millions of dollars go into this, this this organization, 152 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: and what they do is they listen every hour, every second, 153 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: every minute of every day radio TV in the hopes 154 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: I say something that they can then use to boycott 155 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: the show and silence the voice of the show, and 156 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: in very olynsky ype fashion. I mean, there's a certain 157 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: evil genius to it all, but it's not good for 158 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: the country. What they've done is they've isolated one conservative 159 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: after another, and they have in some cases been successful 160 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: in damaging the finances of the show and damaging the 161 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: host reputation and in some cases getting the scalp of 162 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: that host and getting them off the air and winning 163 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: that way, so they think I have always, my entire 164 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: life and career, have never supported a boycott. I don't 165 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: believe in silencing opposition voices. I hope you never do it. 166 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: But I want you to listen three hours a day. 167 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: But you don't have to. You have other options, you 168 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: have other choices. I really want you. I want to 169 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: put on a good enough radio show and a good 170 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 1: enough TV show every day for you, of free news 171 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: and information and interesting gas and a in and that 172 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: you're not gonna get elsewhere in the media. I want 173 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 1: to do that every day. It's my passion, is my dream. 174 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: God has blessed me beyond measure to be able to 175 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: do this every day. But you don't have to watch either. 176 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: There's an on and off button, and there's a channel selector, 177 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: and you don't have to watch anyone show. And for example, 178 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: more recently, when Bill Maher suggested quote a joke, nothing 179 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: funny in my mind about incests between the President of 180 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: the United States daughter and the president. It was really evil, twisted, 181 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: dark and sick. But I have my answer, and it 182 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: should be everybody. I don't watch your show when Colbert 183 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: did what he did, and I tweeted out, I'm not 184 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: going with what was it, boycott Colbert or whatever it was, Colbert, 185 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: stop Colbert. I don't know, and I wrote on Twitter. 186 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: Some people got mad at me. He said, Hannity, you 187 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: you have to join us, and this needs to stop, 188 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: and the only way it's gonna stop is if we 189 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 1: boycott them. And I said, I don't support it now. 190 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: In fairness, this group that sorrows Clinton group is attacking me. 191 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: They're not calling it a boycott. They just listed all 192 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: my advertisers contacts and said, oh, we're just informing the 193 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 1: advertised so they're not calling it a boycott. So I 194 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: can actually say, Okay, there's a group that started. I 195 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: was blown away. I didn't know this group was starting, 196 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, back in May or April or whatever 197 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: it was. And they're both long term friends of my 198 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: Melanie Morgan who used to be a KSFO and Brian Maloney, 199 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: the Radio Equalizer guy, has been a friend of mine 200 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: in radio for years. And all of a sudden I 201 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: read that they started this group Stand with Hannity stopped 202 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: the skelping. This is long before this attempt to silence 203 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: my voice that started here. Well they now started a 204 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: new campaign and it's fight fire with fire. And was 205 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: so amazing about this campaign is they're saying, no, it's 206 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: not a boycott, but they have listed all of Rachel 207 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: Maddow and all I mean, I had not I don't 208 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: ever watch the show, the crap, she says, if it was, 209 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: if it wasn't, I'm stunned. She is a conspiracy kuk. 210 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: But in America she has a right to do that. 211 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: So they've done now with the sorrows Clinton group did. 212 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: And what they're saying is, here are her advertisers, here's 213 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: her cookie conspiracy theories, you know, here's her you know, 214 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: saying very bizarre things and and you know, talking about 215 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 1: I can't we'll play some of it coming up in 216 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: a minute. And they're saying, here are her advertisers, here 217 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: are her thing, here's our crazy stuff. And by the way, 218 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: they're doing exactly what the left does is doing to 219 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: me and is too conservative after conservative after conservative, they're 220 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 1: calling me a conspiracy theorist. She is the most conspiratorial 221 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: human being I've ever seen. And if you go to 222 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: the website Media Equalizer dot com, you can see and 223 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: read it for yourself. It is so off. Then, by 224 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: the way, it's like MS, NBC, NBC, CNN, it's all 225 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: prime time conspiracy theory all the time about there's no 226 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: evidence of collusion Trump, right, but they keep advancing it. 227 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: I am supporting this effort in part because I don't 228 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: think it's ever gonna end until the left is now 229 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: subjected to the same treatment they've treated on the treating conservatives. 230 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: It's not a boycott, they're saying, it's not a boy 231 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: And they've also said one other thing. They said, if 232 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: it stops, they'll stop. In other words, they're talking about 233 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: and I spoke to one of them off the air. 234 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: They're talking about CBS, Colbert, They're talking about a lot 235 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: of cable shows that have a lot of wacky things 236 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: said by a lot of wacky hosts.

And the track record and the things that 239 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: these people have said is breathtaking. And so what they're 240 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: saying is if this is what you are going to 241 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: do to freedom of speech in this country, and your 242 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: attempt to drive conservatives off the air, then we're not 243 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: gonna take it anymore, and they said, fight fire with fire. 244 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: Now you go to Media Equalizer dot com.

I believe in freedom of speech, just like 253 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: none of them defended Ann Coulter, and none of them 254 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: defended Milo Ianopolis and his right to speak at Berkeley, 255 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: like none of them ever defended all the other media 256 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: matters people that were attacked over the years.

And having been 316 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 1: involved in a lot of different liberal groups over time, 317 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: as somebody who's looked leftly to the left of MoU 318 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: this was a workmanlike speech. He It was short, and 319 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: he went through it quickly, and it was It was militant, 320 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: and it was dark. The crime, the gang's, the drugs, 321 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: this American carnage, disrepair, decay. You can't imagine the outgoing 322 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,080 Speaker 1: president giving a speech like that, this president also repeating 323 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: the new president also repeating that there are are our 324 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: guiding principle will be America First. America First. We know 325 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: how he has used that as a campaign slogan that 326 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: does also have very dark echoes in American history. It 327 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: was an America First Committee that formed in this country. 328 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: Hundreds of thousands of people in this country, some of 329 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: the richest businessmen in the country. Many of them are 330 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: anti Semitic, part of why they weren't alarmed by Hitler's 331 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: rise in Germany. America First Committee is something that means 332 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 1: a specific thing in this country. To repurpose it now 333 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: not that far down the historical path, it's uh, it's hard, 334 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: it's hard to hear. I mean, in the past, we 335 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: have had, like, you know, a first lady who worked 336 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: on health policy. Once, we had a president who hired 337 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: his brother as attorney general. But we have come to 338 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: think of even those things as exceptions to the rule. 339 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: We have never thought of ourselves as a country where 340 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: like ude and get to be ministers of whatever they want. Right, 341 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: we do think of ourselves as a ruling family kind 342 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: of place. But now now that's what we are. Mike 343 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: Pence ran for Congress saying, let's not try to cure eights, 344 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: Let's try to cure gay instead, that's Rachel Maddow, that's 345 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: NBC News. I'm gonna go back to what I was 346 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: saying here. This these attacks by the Soros and part 347 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 1: funded other funding millionaires, has all those of conspiration. I 348 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: don't know where to laugh. I mean, it's like, then, seriously, 349 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: tinfoil hat stuff here, and they called me a conspiracy theorist. 350 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: But they'll get to it in a second. And you know, 351 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: comparing the Trump kids to U Day and Cluse and 352 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: let's see inauguration speech, dark America like the first like 353 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: Hitler's supporters in the forties. Really, I wonder if Glenn 354 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: Beck said that about oh that's right. He did in 355 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: a way about Obama, something to the you know, he 356 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: used to show the videos, and you know, the left 357 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: would go and sane and oh that's right. The sorrows 358 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: Clinton group targeted back, you know, and left of Mao, which, 359 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: by the way, in this country you can be left 360 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 1: of mau That's fine. I think it's weird, but that's fine, whatever, 361 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: you whatever, whatever you want. Obamacare opponents, you know, basically 362 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: planning assassinations it is. And then we got defending Wiener 363 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: I think was probably one of my favorites. They even 364 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: got like promoting a Boston bomber conspiracy. We'll we'll play 365 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: some more of this later. Look, I'd rather not do this. 366 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: It's not a boycott. It's what the Clinton Sorrows Group 367 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: has done too many a conservative they call me a 368 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: conspiracy theorist, but not Rachel matt Out because the five 369 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: oh one c three Sorrows Clinton Group um tax exempt 370 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: has a left wing, radical political agenda and now it's 371 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: to take out conservatives. I'm the lay this target. I'm 372 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: not the first target. And so people like Melanie Morgan, 373 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: co founder of the Media Equality Projects, has been a 374 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: radio host, independent TV producer. They she and Brian Maloney, 375 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: co founder of the Media Equality Project. Their website is 376 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: media Equalizer dot com. They started this effort to defend me. 377 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: Was it in May or April? May? Rightly month of 378 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: this month May, and it's called stop the Scalpings hashtags 379 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: got stopped the Scalpings. And if you go to their website, 380 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: Media Equalizer, and they they are basically taking the model 381 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: of the Soros Clinton Group. It's not a boycott, but 382 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna put up every in her case, every insane 383 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: thing that she has said, in my opinion, and we're 384 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: gonna put up every bizarre tinfoil had conspiracy theory. We 385 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: haven't even mentioned the Nightly Trump Russia collusion without any evidence. 386 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: And we're gonna give people the opportunity to weigh in 387 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: with the advertisers. That's up to them, but it's not 388 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: a boycott. And I reluctantly support this effort because when 389 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: you read what they're saying, they're also saying, Okay, when 390 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: you stop the attempts to take out conservative voices, then 391 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: they'll stop. But it's not gonna be a one way 392 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: street anymore. They're calling its fight fire with fire. The 393 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: left has caused this. The left has been the intolerant ones. 394 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: The left does not they they give lip service to 395 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: freedom of speech, but they don't celebrate freedom of speech. 396 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: They don't exercise what they proclaim, just like Hillary proclaims 397 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: he was a champion of women rights. How much money 398 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: to Clinton Foundation take from countries like Saudi Arabia that 399 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: treat women like garbage, absolute, can't drive, must dress a 400 00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: certain way, can't travel abroad, you know, gaze and lesbians murdered, murdered. 401 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: She's taken money from those countries, but just being who 402 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: they are, Kristensen, Jews persecuted. She took but plenty of 403 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: money from all those countries, and I won't go over 404 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: all of them now, you know, I got Kathy Griffin 405 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: a picture of Kathy Griffin with a I guess a 406 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: dummy of of Donald Trump's had decapitated with blood all 407 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: over it. Imagine if a conservative did that to Obama. 408 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: I wonder if I wonder if the Sorrows Clinton group 409 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 1: is gonna boycott her or sorry, talk about her advertisers 410 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: to tell people about it so they won't buy tickets 411 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: to whatever shows she's doing or whatever. It shows you 412 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: it's the group now says and I'm gonna go over 413 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: what their point is. I want to read some of 414 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: what they're saying here. It says today Conservative stand together 415 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: with hashtag stopped the scalpings, and it's now I think, 416 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: all over. It's everywhere on social media. Hannity dot Com 417 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: is bombarded at levels I've never had before. Their website, 418 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 1: Media Equalizer dot Com has been barded like never before. 419 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: One of the reasons and I just heard the U. 420 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: S a A Has come back on our show and 421 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: the other advertiser came back on the show was the 422 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: other advertisment, okay is because of all of you helping me, 423 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: and I'm humbled by it. The Conservatives that you know, 424 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: it's Sean Hannity standing up for women in the mistreatment 425 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: in the Middle East under Sharia, the mistreatment of gays 426 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: and lesbians under Sharia, and the and the persecution of 427 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: Christians and Jews in some of these Sharia countries. So 428 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: they go out stop the scalpings to push back against 429 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: the attempt to silence those who data asked tough questions 430 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: and pursue truth. Shan Hannity Fox News took an a 431 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: pound himself to delve deeper into a story, one that 432 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: left many unanswered questions and required further investigation. Stopped the 433 00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: Scalpings is part of the Media Equality Project and new 434 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: organization launched I Guess in early May by Brian Maloney 435 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: and Melanie Morgan, too, long time talk show hosts, political 436 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: and media analysts, the d n C mainstream media George Soros. 437 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: This group that is, Soros and Clinton supported deem Shawn 438 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: Hannity's pursuit of the facts too close for comfort in 439 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 1: an effort to protect their ilk and keep their secrets safe, 440 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: or and the secrets they keep. They have created a 441 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: false narrative. They've defamed Hannity's character, his work, and political positions. 442 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: Oh yes they have, Yes, they have. They're now targeting 443 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: Hannity's advertisers and a backdoor effort to remove financial support 444 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: from the show. They do this to silence his voice 445 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: because it does not speak in unison with their own, 446 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,239 Speaker 1: and they've done this to other conservatives. For months, there 447 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: has been widespread media narrative advancing a conspiracy theory that 448 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: the Trump campaign and the Russians colluded to the release 449 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: the d n C emails to wiki leaks. And let 450 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: me stop here for a second. Let me play the 451 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: montage of Clapper. I think it's called Brennan. Let's see 452 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: we Admir Rodgers said it, Um Maxie Waters, Joe Manchin, 453 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: they all said there's no evidence of collusion, but we've 454 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: had thousands of hours. You want to talk about a conspiracy, 455 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: this is one, as well as Hillary Clinton signing off 456 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: a waiver so that Vladimir Putin gets of America geranium 457 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: and so much money with people associated with that deal 458 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: gets kicked back to the Clinton Foundation listen. But Mr 459 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: Clapper then went on to say that to his knowledge, 460 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: there was no evidence of collusion between members of the 461 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: Trump campaign and the Russians. We did not conclude any 462 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: evidence in our report. And when I say our report, 463 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: that is the n s A, FBI, and CIA with 464 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: my office the Director of National Intelligence, that had anything 465 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: any reflection of collusion between the members of Trump campaign 466 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: and the Russians. There was no evidence of that in 467 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: our report. Was Mr Clapper wrong when he said that, 468 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: I think he's right about character rising the report which 469 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: you'll have read. We did not include any evidence in 470 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: our report. And I say our that's n s, A, FBI, 471 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: and CIA with my office, the Director of National Intelligence 472 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: that had anything that had any reflection of collusion between 473 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: members of the Trump campaign and the Russians. There was 474 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: no evidence of that included in our report. Can you 475 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: say definitively that there was collusion there were people affiliated 476 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: with the Trump campaign who were working with Russians to 477 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: time the release of damaging information about Hillary Clinton that 478 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: had been that had been hacked, either from John Podesta 479 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: or the d n C. I don't think we can 480 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: say anything definitively at this point, Have you seen anything 481 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: either intelligence briefings, through intelligence briefings, anything to back up 482 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: any of the accusations that you made. They have the 483 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: documentation that they did the hacking, the hacking on the 484 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: d R and on some of us. You know that 485 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: put the collusion, No, we have not. Do you have 486 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: evidence that there was in fact collusion between Trump associates 487 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: and Russia during the campaign? Not at this time. Have 488 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: you seen anything that suggests any collusion between the Russians 489 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: and the Trump campaign. Well, there's an awful lot of 490 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: smoke there. Let's put it that way. People that might 491 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: have said they were involved, to what extent they were involved, 492 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: to what extent the president might have known about these 493 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: people or whatever. There's nothing there from that standpoint that 494 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: we have seen directly linking our president to any of that. 495 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: Did evidence exist of collusion, coordination, conspiracy between the Trump 496 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: campaign and Russian state actors at the time you learned 497 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: of twenty sixteen efforts. I don't know whether or not 498 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: such collusion that's your term, such collusion existed. I don't know. Now. 499 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this and wrap this up, and 500 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: then we've got new king Ridge. We're gonna have Melanie 501 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: Morgan and Brian Maloney on the pro Graham later today. 502 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: I just want you to know this is a real 503 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: This is a kill shot for me. They want me 504 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: off the radio, off TV, out of business. And if 505 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: this is the tactics now that they're gonna use, I 506 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: don't see any other option but to fight fire with fire, 507 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: and that's why I support them. I'd rather never be 508 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: a part of anything where you go, oh, well, we'll 509 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: tell your ADVERTISEY tell her of advertise. We'll say you 510 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: said something nutty. And look at all the conspiracy theories 511 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: of Rachel Mattow supports. But there's no other way if 512 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: you want to keep the Fox News Channel, in my opinion, 513 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: and conservatives on radio, because this is a systematic George 514 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: for sorrows impart funded a group in part founded by 515 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton to destroy conservatives, and they only go after conservatives. 516 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: I'm only saying this to you because I am the 517 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: only one in the country that I know of that's 518 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: interview Julian Osans five time. So's the only person on 519 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: the planet that really knows where the leaks came from. 520 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: And he says it's not Russia. How many hours hours 521 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: and hours and hours of TV conspiracy theory as Rachel 522 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 1: and other has been involved in. Now, if there's evidence 523 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: that ever comes out, I'll share it with you, be 524 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: glad to But there's been none so far. But the 525 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: bigger issue here is liberals are not advocates of freedom 526 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: of speech. Their phony, they're hypocritical, their liars, and this 527 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,719 Speaker 1: is their effort to silence, shut down, eliminate voices they 528 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: disagree with. And now, according to Brian and Melanie, this 529 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: will now be used against all of those people on 530 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: the left that's say the craziest insane things every day. 531 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: They say if these groups stop, they'll stop. They don't stop. 532 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: It's gonna be Rachel and then a long list of 533 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: other people that have said really gross, grotesque, disgusting, despicable things. 534 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: But it's not a boycott. If you want to help 535 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,239 Speaker 1: freedom of speech, you can see what they're doing at 536 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: media Equalizer dot com and they'll join us. They'll join us. 537 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: Coming up later in the program nine four one, Sean 538 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 1: and I want to say once again your words of encouragement, 539 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: your support, your support of our advertisers, what you've done 540 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: in terms of you know, we now have two advertisers 541 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: that have reversed course all because of your efforts, And 542 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: we also have so many people saying the nicest things 543 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: to me. I'm just going to continue to do my 544 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: job every day as long as I have this blessing 545 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: and this opportunity. I know it's at stake. I know 546 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: it's real. I've seen their work before. It is ugly, 547 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: it is frankly despicable. It's in many ways, you know, 548 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: the antithesis of what we hear liberalism stands for. And 549 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: by the way, Rachel, where were you last week saying leave? 550 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: Why are you trying to get Hannity off the air? 551 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: Where was every other liberal on TV? Big believers in 552 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: free speech that they are ideally for all of us? 553 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: This goes away, but I don't think it will until 554 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: the price is now on their side. Sad that it's 555 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: come to this, in my opinion, but necessary if we 556 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: want conservative voices to remain. I want to remind you 557 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: we gotta take a break here eight hundred nine four one. 558 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: Shawn is on number and then uh New Kingridge. At 559 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: the top of the hour, we'll have Melanie Morgan and 560 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: Brian Maloney joining us, and John Solomon Circuit news on 561 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: the Deep State straight a hund Yn Hour to Sean 562 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: Hannity Show.

And of course, the 567 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: other issue that we're fighting is that we have attempts 568 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: to silence not only the Fox News Channel, conservative talk radio. 569 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: And now there is an organized orchest traded effort to 570 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: do to the left what they have been doing to 571 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: conservatives for years, and conservatives have sitting sat back and 572 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: taken it and fighting fire with fire and stopping the scalping. 573 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: And we'll talk to the two people responsible for that, 574 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: and John Solomon from Circuit News. But first joining us 575 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: former Speaker of the House, New King Rich. Have you 576 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: ever seen such hip hoc am? I wrong? Isn't the 577 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: the left liberals? Aren't they supposed to be the the 578 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: people that support freedom of expression, the free and open 579 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: exchange of ideas and ideals and opinions. And they find 580 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,399 Speaker 1: somebody they don't like. They don't like the Fox News Channel, 581 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: they don't like talk radio. Boy, they know how to 582 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 1: shut them down pretty quickly, don't they. They know where 583 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: to go, right to the financial heart of these shows. 584 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: And look, look, what's what you had is the thirty 585 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: year evolution with people like George Sorrow's paying for it, 586 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: of a left wing fascism which believes that it has 587 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: to totally discuss it anybody who gets in his way. 588 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 1: And that's just I mean, that's what we're up against. 589 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: And uh, I think you have to recognize that, whether 590 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: it's in a college campus, or whether it is in politics, 591 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 1: store it's in the news media, they are trying to 592 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: impose a single line set on the whole country, and 593 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: their tactics are in commit that he sent in route 594 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: with us. Uh and uh, this whole current gimmick of 595 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: let's go after the advertisers. And of course the advertisers 596 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: respond to social pressure because the people the people that 597 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 1: are really going after other CEOs and the people who 598 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 1: liked being part of polite society, and so they get 599 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: told by all of their left wing and friends, you 600 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 1: must be a horrible person. And it does that. You know, 601 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: I watched this up in the Rush twenty years ago, 602 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: and he simply outlasted. He simply said, finally, I'll go 603 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: find new advertisers and I'll go for You know, my 604 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: audience is big enough. I don't care, and I think 605 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: what we will eventually beat them down because I'm not 606 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: a steament today. For it was a column of the 607 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: question of post by a liberal, uh, taking on the 608 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: left on campuses and talking about the degree to which 609 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: they were behaving like Mussolini and like fascism in Italy. Uh. 610 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: It was pretty pretty impressive of this guy had finally 611 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: had enough and just could not defend them anymore. You know, 612 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: It's it's pretty amazing. It's really sad that, you know, 613 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: for example, I'm the latest target and I'm not the 614 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: only one. And you've watched this unfold over the years. 615 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: You see what they're trying to do. I think they're 616 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: trying to take out the Fox News channel, and I 617 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: think they're trying to do it before elections because I 618 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: think they believe, right or wrong, that Fox had an 619 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: impact on the last election cycle. And it seems like 620 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: anybody that likes the president says nice things about the 621 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: president doesn't buy the ridiculous conspiracy theory with no evidence 622 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: to date. I'll report it if it comes, but you 623 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,439 Speaker 1: know that that it's a Russia Trump collusion to get 624 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: two wiki leaks, the d n C emails, and all 625 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: we hear is over and over again, there's no evidence 626 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: of that, and that they keep advancing it, and if 627 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: you push back on it, it's like now they want 628 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 1: to shut you down. Now they go after your advertising base. 629 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: And finally some conservatives said, Okay, it's not a boycott, 630 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 1: but we're gonna do to you what you do in 631 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 1: a Hannity. We're gonna list all your advertisers. We're gonna 632 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 1: list every outrageous, conspiratorial and sane thing you've said, and 633 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna tell people to make up their own minds. 634 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: Do you think that's the right strategy to finally end this? 635 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: And I think I think it's very important to fight 636 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: fire with fire, and I think these are frankly um 637 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: people who have to be confronted. I bygree with Dennis 638 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: Fraeger when he wrote a column recently saying this is 639 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: the second American Civil War. I think the people on 640 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: the left were so shaken by hell put losing on 641 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: election night, and they had been pulled up to about 642 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 1: nine o'clock to night. She is gonna win. They were 643 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: so shattered. There was such a serious experience that they 644 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: said that your ange uh. And they they went through 645 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 1: in the comfortable knowledge that they were going to mallyam 646 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: pose left link values using the power of the federal 647 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:13,760 Speaker 1: government to watching Donald Trump begin to roll back the bureaucracies, 648 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: roll back the regulations. I mean, you look at a 649 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: Trump speech and you compared to an Obama speech, you 650 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: can see how dramatically more conservative he is. And that's 651 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: driving the left crazy. It really is. What do you 652 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: make of all of these developments that Obama loosens these 653 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: rules as it relates to unmasking and the number of 654 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: agencies that have access to raw intelligence. And what I'm 655 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: talking about is, for example, Michael Flinn, I guess is 656 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: the best case, And here's a guy that was picked 657 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: up incidentally, he wasn't minimized. Then it got leaked, which 658 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: is a violation of the Espionage Act. Then it destroyed 659 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 1: his career. And what do you make of the dramatic 660 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: increases that have occurred as a result of Obama lightening 661 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 1: the rules and lessening the rules and allowing the sharing 662 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: of all of this wrong Intelligence. Well, look, I think 663 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,799 Speaker 1: it was deliberate. Um. I think they knew going out 664 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,879 Speaker 1: of power, but they wanted to do everything they could 665 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: to cripple the incoming Trump administration. And ironically, by the way, 666 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: with all the talk about Jared Kushner and uh informal 667 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: back room connections, it now it turns out that in 668 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: fact Obama had back room connections to Iran during the 669 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: transition period um, and that the very things that Left 670 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: is shocked by are things that Brock Obama did. Uh. So, 671 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: you know, I think that anytime you see your story 672 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 1: it starts with an unnamed source, you should assume that 673 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: it's a lie because their sources are afraid to tell 674 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: the truth in public. And so that the number of 675 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: Washington Posts of New York Times stories that have been 676 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: based on unnamed sources is truly astonishing. Let me ask you, 677 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: you don't One of the things I'd like America go 678 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: to get back in touch with is the Trump agenda, 679 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: and that is the President and his White House. But 680 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: he's had to deal with all the leaks from within 681 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: the White House. He's had to deal with the deep 682 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: state leaks. I think the deep state is the most 683 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: dangerous threat to the country and freedom and liberty in 684 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: our constitutional Fourth Amendment rights that we've ever seen in 685 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: our lifetime. It really is scary when you see that 686 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: people are are surveiled, unmasked, and they leak intelligence, raw 687 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 1: intelligence on people, and it seems to happen again and again. 688 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 1: How does this end? How do you stop? I wrote 689 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,399 Speaker 1: my UH newsletter last week on which people can get 690 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 1: a game Wish productions, and I wrote it on the 691 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: title of it was lock up the Leakers. I'm want 692 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: to draw distinction. Political leaking is as old as American politics, 693 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: and that's just if you have someone in your staff 694 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: who is not loyal and they go out on the leak. 695 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: That's one thing. When you start leaking American secrets, you 696 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: are breaking the law. And I actually think they ought 697 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: to have every person in the White House go through 698 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: a briefing on secrecy laws and sign a note to 699 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: Day that they have been warned what the legal consequences are, 700 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: and they just need to start locking people up. I mean, 701 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 1: you know the damage done to us. I thought Secretary 702 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 1: Kelly on Sunday, it's our great American patriot. UH at 703 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: at one point, you know, said this, and he said, 704 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 1: in my mind, this verge is untreason uh, And I 705 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: agree with him. These are people who are capriciously weakening America, 706 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: threatening the lives of our agents, and crippling our allies 707 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: ability to work with us. And this doesn't saw political 708 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: game for reporters. This is a very dangerous pattern historically 709 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: that puts America at risk. Now I agree, um, And 710 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: And the thing is is that there's not a lot 711 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: of days left in the legislative calendar, a little over 712 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,799 Speaker 1: a month and they're on vacation again this week. By 713 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 1: do you ever see people take more vacation than these 714 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: people in Congress? What? What the hell is that? Who? 715 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 1: They almost take as much vacation as you do for 716 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: crying out loud and your semi retired. I know, I 717 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 1: know it's brutal. It's brutal, And I mean, I I 718 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: have to interview you with the penguins when you're in 719 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 1: where you're an article, wherever the heck you are. Next week, 720 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: I want to do my interviews from Normandy because Flips 721 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: Bam Mary Greece for the for D Day, because I'm 722 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 1: gonna they have a telephone over there and I'm gonna 723 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 1: call you and I'll be on the show. Do you 724 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 1: know that five days for me in a row was 725 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: an eternity over Memorial Day weekend And that's like the 726 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: longest I get except around Christmas. That's it. I know. 727 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 1: But you're so much younger than me. Oh, you're killing me. 728 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: You're absolutely killing me. I don't I want to ask this, 729 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. I don't really want to 730 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: drag it into this whole thing. If every single solitary person, 731 00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 1: from Clapper to Comey to Admiral Rodgers to um Brennan 732 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: to Mansion to fine Stein to even Maxine Waters all 733 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: saying there's no evidence of collusion, how do you justify 734 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 1: the thousands of hours that the media has spent advancing 735 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: what we have no evidence for. It's not complicated. They 736 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: hate him, the Trump. They wake up every morning hating Trump. 737 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 1: They spend all the watching on TV and reminds of 738 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 1: how much to hate him and anything they can do 739 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: to weaken him, to undermine him, to smear him. That 740 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 1: That's why I've advocated closing early briefings. That's why I 741 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: have advocated moving the press, sport up to jets and 742 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: getting out of the White House. These these aren't reporters. 743 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: These are attackers. When when you have a network that 744 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 1: the harbor that Harvard study said the one network was negative, No, no, 745 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: why DoD you have them participate as though they were reporters, 746 00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:01,240 Speaker 1: not to the opposition. And by the way, the Governor 747 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:05,720 Speaker 1: Johnson needed a brilliant job shutting down one of the anchors. 748 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 1: You're saying, citizen, all right, Mr speakers, stay right there, 749 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna reconnect with you. Your line is just cutting 750 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 1: out there at the end eight nine one Shawn. Also tonight, Hannity, 751 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: we are going to get into this whole issue of 752 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,959 Speaker 1: fighting fire with fire and conservatives now using the left 753 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 1: techniques and saying, okay, if you want to silence conservatives, 754 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: what's good for you is what's good for conservatives is 755 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 1: going to be used against you. And then the people 756 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: that are responsible for fighting back and leading this effort 757 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 1: will join us later in a program today. Also hit 758 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 1: it on Hannity tonight. The only discomfort I have is 759 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 1: with folks in the media trying to create a ven 760 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 1: reality without having the courage to to specifically tell me 761 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 1: what the venality that I should be concerned about is. Well, 762 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't have I have not ident to fight of 763 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 1: a reality, have you. Well, you should be concerned if 764 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 1: there was collusion, and that's what I don't know. I 765 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 1: don't see any evidence of collusion, do you know. Okay, 766 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: that's that. That ends. That should end. You're reporting right 767 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: there where I should put an exclamation point after you know, understood. 768 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,320 Speaker 1: But we're at the beginning of the investigations. So what 769 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,759 Speaker 1: your seven months into the investigation. Your seven months has 770 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: just taken over. It's just a new investigation. Well no, 771 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 1: I mean, look, that's not exactly fair, Governor, because, as 772 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: you know, conversation investigations to do this, to handle this, 773 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 1: because so it gets away from all the partisan bickering. 774 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: So it's just starting in that regard. Can I ask 775 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: a question if Mulla comes out and says that my 776 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 1: version is correct and yours isn't, how much crow are 777 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: you going to eat? Governor? I don't have a version 778 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,719 Speaker 1: of events. Of course you knew the whole half hour 779 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: I listening, Governor, is a version. We're asking questions of 780 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 1: the sources of the people who know, attempting to see 781 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 1: where the investigation is. The investigation isn't without without identifying, 782 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 1: without identifying a venality that should be investigated. Governor. We 783 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 1: appreciate your perspective that there's nothing to see here and 784 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: that the investigation is, I don't know, silly, politically motivated 785 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:33,320 Speaker 1: by folks trying to rationalize a horribly run Democratic presidential campaign. 786 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: Governor Johnson, your new Thank you very much. Always great 787 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 1: to get your perspective. You know, as I've been saying, 788 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 1: I mean, look, Allison is a great I've known him 789 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 1: for years, very nice person. It's just you cannot defend 790 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: anymore the amount of coverage that has been spent on 791 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: something that every single person that knows something is saying 792 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: there's no evidence for you know, I guarantee if they 793 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 1: ever showed there is any evidence, see Hannah or wrong. 794 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: I have said from the beginning, I am open, I 795 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: will report, I will tell you, I will I will 796 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,879 Speaker 1: inform you of every single thing that comes out. Any 797 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 1: evidence of quote, collusion with Russia and Trump. We haven't 798 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: seen it, and I think the former speakers dead on. 799 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: I think there are people in the left they just 800 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: wake up every morning. How can what we hate Trump? 801 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: How can we you know, what did he do today 802 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 1: that we can beat up on? And how can we 803 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,280 Speaker 1: beat up on poor Sean Spicer and the press briefing, 804 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 1: and how can we get our moment on TV that 805 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 1: makes us look great? How can we do that? It 806 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 1: is the single biggest information crisis we've ever had in 807 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 1: the country. I mean it's almost it's like such groupthink. 808 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:55,399 Speaker 1: There there's so little critical thinking. There's nobody seemingly there's 809 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: willing to step out of the box and say, okay, 810 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,319 Speaker 1: is there any evidence here? Is there anything? All right? 811 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 1: Joe and Brook cave in New York. We got a 812 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:05,359 Speaker 1: but less than a minute, Joe, but it's all yours. 813 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: Go ahead. Hey Sean, Hey Joe, what's going on? My brother? 814 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 1: Thank you? Listen. You gave us hope, you and Mr Trump. 815 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: There was no hope before that election. You have to understand. 816 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,759 Speaker 1: You ask why we're doing. You need the boycott. I'm 817 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 1: I say, boycott you and Mr Trump saved America. I 818 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 1: have nine children, young kids. Well they're not listen. I 819 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: want to be clear. It's not a boycott. They're just 820 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,439 Speaker 1: releasing information, just like just like the Sorrows Hillary group. 821 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 1: I understand that it's not wink wink a boycott. You know, 822 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 1: they say they're not boycotting me. I say, look, Sean, 823 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: you said the other day before he went on the holiday, 824 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:50,240 Speaker 1: they're going for the kill shot. They're going for you. Juggla, 825 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna let him kill you? You well, I mean, listen, 826 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: I can't say for sure that they're not gonna get me. 827 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: I really can't. I'm all I'm telling you is I'm 828 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: fighting back, and I am I'm doing what I always do, 829 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to stop doing what I do 830 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 1: unless if they take this microphone away from me, if 831 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: they take the camera away from me, that I'm done 832 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: and I'll try and go somewhere else, but not till 833 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:17,320 Speaker 1: them thank you for your support. A threat to global security? 834 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 1: Do you consider the Russian president laim Putent? I think 835 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 1: he is the premier and most important threat, more so 836 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 1: than Isis. I think Isis can do terrible things. And 837 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,279 Speaker 1: I worry a lot about what is happening with the 838 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 1: Muslim faith, and I worry about a whole lot of 839 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 1: things about it. But it's the Russians who are trying, 840 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,880 Speaker 1: who tried to destroy the very fundamental of democracy, and 841 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: that is to change the outcome of an American election. 842 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: I have seen no evidence they succeeded, but they tried, 843 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: and they are still trying. They are still trying to 844 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 1: change election. They just tried to affect the outcome of 845 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:58,759 Speaker 1: the French election. So um, I've I've Vladimir Putin, who 846 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,800 Speaker 1: has dismembered Rain, a sovereign nation, who's putting pressure on 847 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 1: the Baltics. I view the Russians as a far as 848 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,279 Speaker 1: the far greatest challenges that we have now until the 849 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: top of the hour one, SHAWNA is on number you 850 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the point. I have 851 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,400 Speaker 1: no idea what John McCain is saying there. I mean, 852 00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 1: he's a visit to Australia telling ABC thinks Russia is 853 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: a bigger threat to world security than isis. Now. We've 854 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: been told, if you go back to some of the 855 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: earlier testimony as it relates to Russia, we were told 856 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: that a no votes were impacted. We were told repeatedly, 857 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 1: let's see by Brennan and by Clapper, and by Comey 858 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 1: and by Diane Feinstein and even Maxine Waters and Joe 859 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 1: Mansion in person and Admiral Rodgers, there's no evidence of 860 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: Russia Trump collusion. So yeah, And then we were also 861 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 1: told that Russia had tried to impact prior elections. And 862 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:52,239 Speaker 1: by the way, if it's so bad to try and 863 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 1: impact the election or influence the election of another country, 864 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 1: I've yet to hear anybody in Washington talk about President 865 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,439 Speaker 1: Obama's attempt to influence the Israeli election in the last 866 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,720 Speaker 1: cycle and at his defeat Prime Minister Netan Yahoo. Anyway, 867 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 1: John Solomon is with us with Circa dot Com. He's 868 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: the chief operating officer, and he's here to address this 869 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 1: Russia collusion narrative that has been provoked by the left. 870 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,320 Speaker 1: We'll go back to our top story today, which is 871 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: silence and conservative voices. How are you, sir, I'm doing 872 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 1: well today, all right. So, I mean, what do you 873 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 1: think when you hear a senator suggesting that Russia is 874 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: a bigger threat to world security than ices, when apparently 875 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 1: according to testimony of an intelligence community that, well, they've 876 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 1: tried to do this in prior elections. They tried to 877 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,440 Speaker 1: do it here, they weren't successful, and they'll try to 878 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 1: do it in the future. Yeah. I think you know, 879 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 1: Senator McCain has been saying something like this for some 880 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: time at going back to when we started to see 881 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:49,839 Speaker 1: Russian jets intercept American planes near Alaska and submarines playing 882 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,839 Speaker 1: cat and mouse games. He's been concerned about Russ's sort 883 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: of interventionist military action, and it's probably a much more 884 00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 1: larger concern than any concern that they were playing with 885 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: the election. I mean, we expect foreign countries to get 886 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 1: involved in elections, and it's our job to make sure 887 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 1: that they don't influence him. And but I think he's 888 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 1: probably talking about a much larger geopolitical threat than just 889 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 1: the the election itself. You and Sarah Corta at circuit 890 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:19,320 Speaker 1: dot com have been doing a deep dive into intelligence 891 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 1: leaking and surveillance and unmasking, and you've now come up 892 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,040 Speaker 1: with new developments as it relates to the former CIA 893 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 1: director Brennan, who, by the way, confirmed last week under 894 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,560 Speaker 1: testimony that in fact, he had unmasked the identities of Americans. Um, 895 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 1: what have you learned and what is the latest development? 896 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: I think all three of the alphabet suit agencies at 897 00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 1: most readily deal with intercepted American intelligence, the n s A, 898 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: the CIA, and the FBI. We reported in three consecutive 899 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 1: stories last week that all three admitted at the end 900 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 1: of the Obama administration that they had done fairly serious 901 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: privacy violations. In the case of the FBI, they took 902 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: the intercepted data from the n s A and they 903 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:02,240 Speaker 1: actually gave it to parties. They listened in an attorney 904 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: client potential attorney client privileged communications and didn't have the 905 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: proper protections in place. Uh, the CIA and the n 906 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: s A both did searches into the databases, the Snowden 907 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: like databases we've heard about for years that we're illegal 908 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 1: and literally prohibited in the case of the NFC if 909 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 1: they were prohibited for years and yet they kept doing it. 910 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:22,799 Speaker 1: So I think we've gone from a period of hey, 911 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: there's some unusual stuff going on in Obama opened up 912 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: the floodgates for this to happen to the first real 913 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 1: true civil liberties and legal violations by all three agents. 914 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,800 Speaker 1: Is it a constitutional crisis because of Americans Fourth Amendment 915 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 1: constitutionally protected rights to unreasonable search and seizure. Well, a 916 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,719 Speaker 1: lot of smart lawyers have said there's no doubt that 917 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 1: these violated the Fourth Amendment. You've been saying that for 918 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 1: a long time, Sean. I know every time I've been 919 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: on your show, you've been raising that concern. Smarter lawyers 920 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 1: than I have been able to make that case. I 921 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: think more importantly, there is a crisis of coming in 922 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: the in the NASA dear future. Congress has to decide 923 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 1: what to do with this law, of the section seven 924 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 1: or two law that allows all this spionage on Americans, 925 00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 1: and I think the administration and the intelligence agencies and 926 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: Congress are gonna have a much more difficult time, perhaps 927 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:09,239 Speaker 1: the most difficult time since nine eleven, in renewing these 928 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,240 Speaker 1: provisions and finding a new line between security and privacy. 929 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 1: And I think that's something that's gonna play out this fall. 930 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 1: The law expires December thirty one, and it's not a 931 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 1: slam duct that it's going to get renewed in its 932 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 1: current form. Let me ask about what you've discovered in 933 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,400 Speaker 1: terms of the surveillance of Americans, because I think this 934 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 1: is the most troubling because I believe in the right 935 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 1: of privacy. I believe. Look, I I really admire and 936 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying this, I admire and appreciate what our 937 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:37,240 Speaker 1: intelligence agencies due to protect Americans. But under the guise 938 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,360 Speaker 1: of national intelligence, when you have such a dramatic increase 939 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 1: in the in the presidential election cycle, like in and sixteen, 940 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 1: where not only are have the issues of surveillance and 941 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 1: incidental on incidental surveillance that become unmasked and in some 942 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,320 Speaker 1: cases leaked, which is a crime and a violation of 943 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,760 Speaker 1: the Espionage Act. How bad is it? How much bigger 944 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,919 Speaker 1: has it gotten in this last election cycle? Well, there's 945 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 1: no doubt as threefold increase in the sort of searches 946 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:10,560 Speaker 1: intelligence agencies were doing on American data. And so either 947 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:13,879 Speaker 1: there's been a triple increase in in the national security threats, 948 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:15,880 Speaker 1: which I doubt there is, or there's just a more 949 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 1: period interest. Once you make it easier, of course, national 950 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: security analysts are going to look at these data more frequently, 951 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:23,880 Speaker 1: and I think for the first time we've seen the 952 00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 1: first sign is not only of really substantial civil liberties violations, 953 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: but a lot of suggestions of political espionage. And just 954 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: take a look at what's leaked in the last few weeks, 955 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 1: right for if we remember the Mike Flynn transcript at 956 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: the end of last year that sunk his role as 957 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:40,240 Speaker 1: National security advisor, but we have intercepts of the Russian 958 00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 1: ambassador being leaked concerning what Jared Kushner met with, and 959 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: there's just a chronic now set of leaks that are 960 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: occurring as a result of these intercepts, and these intersects 961 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 1: are never intended to be made public in the first place. 962 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 1: And I think one of the big outcomes of this 963 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 1: is that you can make a direct line from the 964 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 1: increase in the number of people who are accessing sensitive 965 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: espionage data on Americans and the amount of leaks that 966 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,319 Speaker 1: we have seen since the election season began. Well, there 967 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 1: was one, Yeah, there was a list this weekend about, 968 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, a complete and updated list of deep state 969 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,239 Speaker 1: leaks to the far left and the mainstream media. I 970 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 1: mean there's so many of them. I mean, you've got, uh, 971 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 1: the latest with Jared Kushner and the Russian ambassador. You've 972 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:25,880 Speaker 1: got NBC and and again it's about Jared Kushner and 973 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 1: and one of his senior advisors under the scrutiny the FBI. 974 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,880 Speaker 1: People believe that's from the deep state, or images of 975 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 1: the Manchester terrorist attack, or you know, go all the 976 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 1: way back. I mean, if you want, you can go 977 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:40,160 Speaker 1: all the way back. I guess too. When the President 978 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 1: got into office, I mean then of course it's his 979 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 1: conversations with you know, the Prime Minister of Australia and 980 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 1: other people. How many instances have you counted? Well, I've 981 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,759 Speaker 1: seen two or three dozen instances in the last year 982 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:57,400 Speaker 1: where intelligence officials themselves have told me this harm national 983 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 1: security has put an asset in pretty put a strategy 984 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,359 Speaker 1: in jeopardy. It tipped off an ambassador that we were 985 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,800 Speaker 1: monitoring the amount of phone that he thought couldn't be monitored. 986 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 1: I had an intelligence person in this past week and 987 00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,839 Speaker 1: talking someone over the week, and he said, I don't 988 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 1: think we could have fought World War two with the 989 00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:14,799 Speaker 1: amount of leaks that we have today. It's just such 990 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 1: a lack of regard for American secrecy and and the 991 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: fact that there may be a national security interest at 992 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: stake when people leak, and I think those are the 993 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: sort of things that concerned the intelligence community. In a 994 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 1: few years from now, we may have consequences where we've 995 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:30,640 Speaker 1: lost assets or lost capabilities because of the amount of 996 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 1: leaking we've seen. I have been accused of being a 997 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 1: conspiracy theorist for asking questions based on my public interviews 998 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 1: with Julian Assang, who is the only person that knows 999 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: where the d n C email leaks came from. He's 1000 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: the only one, and he had said it's not Russia, 1001 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 1: and he had said that it and it suggested in 1002 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: another interview that it might be disfrontled Democrats. And I 1003 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:55,760 Speaker 1: don't know the answer, but I just have been asking questions, 1004 00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,320 Speaker 1: and I've been accused of being a conspiracy theorist. Let's 1005 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 1: listen to all the Democrats and intelligence officials saying that 1006 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 1: there's no evidence of collusion, but yet it has been 1007 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 1: reported on for thousands of hours now. We did not 1008 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:12,959 Speaker 1: include any evidence in our report. And I say our 1009 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:17,400 Speaker 1: that's n S, A, FBI, and CIA with my office 1010 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 1: Director Nation Intelligence, that had anything that had any reflection 1011 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 1: of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians. 1012 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 1: There was no evidence of that included in our report. 1013 00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 1: Can you say definitively that there was collusion there were 1014 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,360 Speaker 1: people affiliated with the Trump campaign who were working with 1015 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: Russians to time the release of damaging information about Hillary 1016 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 1: Clinton that had been that had been hacked, either from 1017 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 1: John Podesta or the d n C. I don't think 1018 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: we can say anything definitively at this point. Have you 1019 00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 1: seen anything either intelligence briefings, through intelligence briefings, anything to 1020 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 1: back up any of the accusations that should they have 1021 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:02,440 Speaker 1: the documentation that they did the hacking. The hacking right 1022 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 1: and on some of us. You know that the collusion 1023 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 1: though we have not. Do you have evidence that there 1024 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 1: was in fact collusion between Trump associates and Russia during 1025 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 1: the campaign not? At this time. Have you seen anything 1026 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 1: that suggests any collusion between the Russians and the Trump campaign? Well, 1027 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:22,720 Speaker 1: there's an awful lot of smoke there, let's put it 1028 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,080 Speaker 1: that way. People that might have said they were involved, 1029 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 1: to what extent they were involved, to what extent the 1030 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,240 Speaker 1: president might have known about these people or whatever. There's 1031 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 1: nothing there from that standpoint that we have seen directly 1032 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:37,680 Speaker 1: linking our president to any of that. Did evidence exist 1033 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 1: of collusion, coordination, conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russian 1034 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 1: state actors at the time you learned of twenty sixteen efforts. 1035 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: I don't know whether or not such collusion that's your term, 1036 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: such collusion existed. I don't know. I don't know how 1037 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 1: we all these months of insinuations and and spinning of 1038 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:07,560 Speaker 1: webs and conspiracy theories. I mean, you've got broadcast cable 1039 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 1: networks that have become conspiracy you know, Prime Time seven. 1040 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 1: Is there any evidence to date of any collusion between 1041 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,440 Speaker 1: the Trump campaign and the Russians any to date, No 1042 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,920 Speaker 1: now are reporting and if you remember back in early March, 1043 01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 1: I think we were one of the first to report that, 1044 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: and that really really affirms what we were being told. 1045 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: Then I think two things. It confirms what happens when 1046 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 1: you leak information in the classified world, and the reason 1047 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 1: that a conspiracy theory can be sustained is that a 1048 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 1: lot of times people to correct the record would have 1049 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: to leak more information to correct the record, and people 1050 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: aren't willing to do that. So one side has been 1051 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 1: leaking select information and the other side, uh, the intelligence 1052 01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 1: community is reluctant, at least an open to put information 1053 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 1: out there that would debunk it, even though they know 1054 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 1: it to be wrong. And I think that's the game 1055 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 1: that the critics, the people who are trying to make 1056 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 1: more of this and there's there right now, are playing. 1057 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 1: And it's an unfortunate thing for people whose reputations are 1058 01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 1: put at stake, and for a country that's being put 1059 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:02,560 Speaker 1: through an awful lot of ups and downs, the roller 1060 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 1: coaster that may not be fully warranted. Amazing, isn't it? 1061 01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 1: And yet I'm called the conspiracy theorist um and I'm 1062 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: just listening to what these people say. All right, stay 1063 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 1: right there, we'll come back John Solomon Circuit dot Com 1064 01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,560 Speaker 1: and we'll get back more into his latest developments. And 1065 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 1: at the top of the hour, there is a pushback, 1066 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:25,160 Speaker 1: fighting fire with fire, Conservatives trying to all the attempts 1067 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 1: to silence conservative voices in the country. And we'll get 1068 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 1: to that, and also stop the scalping and this new 1069 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: effort to do to the left what they have been 1070 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 1: doing to conservatives to silence them for years. And why 1071 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: this is important.

It's eight hundred 1099 01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 1: nine for one sea and if you want to be 1100 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 1: a part of the program. Now there has been for 1101 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,240 Speaker 1: many years. As I mentioned at the at the beginning 1102 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 1: of the program. Today there's George Soros funded and Hillary 1103 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 1: supported groups out there with millions and millions of dollars, 1104 01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 1: and you know, for years they pay people to monitor 1105 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 1: every conservative in the country and in the hopes of 1106 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:21,640 Speaker 1: they get the one word, the one phrase, the one 1107 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: sentence that they can use and attack their their advertisers, 1108 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:28,320 Speaker 1: so that basically it's a backdoor way I argue of 1109 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:34,120 Speaker 1: silencing opposition voices. It's always been that it's conservatives targeted. 1110 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:38,400 Speaker 1: I have always said I will not participate in boycotts. 1111 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:42,040 Speaker 1: When the stop coldbet thing came out, I even tweeted out, 1112 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:45,920 Speaker 1: I will not participate in a boycott. Now, very cleverly, 1113 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:47,560 Speaker 1: I guess the left came up with this idea, Well, 1114 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 1: we're not gonna boycott Hannity, but we're gonna list all 1115 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 1: his advertisers and and we're gonna make up and take 1116 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 1: out of context and cut and paste and make them 1117 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 1: sound as crazy as we can. And those of you 1118 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:02,760 Speaker 1: that listen to this program, my you know, you know 1119 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:05,959 Speaker 1: where I'm coming from. The thing that has been particularly 1120 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 1: hurtful about is well, I'm the person that has interviewed 1121 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 1: Julian Assang more than anybody else in the country that 1122 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,160 Speaker 1: I know of. Maybe there's somebody else, but I don't 1123 01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:17,360 Speaker 1: know what. There's a three or four times we've had 1124 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:20,920 Speaker 1: them on radio, one time on TV, and Wiki Leaks 1125 01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 1: has never been wrong in eleven years. Whether you approve 1126 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 1: and disapproved what they do, um, it doesn't matter. They 1127 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 1: haven't been proven wrong. The New York Times, of all 1128 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 1: places of the paper of record, all the news that's 1129 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 1: fit to print, even they have gone out there and 1130 01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:37,720 Speaker 1: used Wiki leaks stuff. So Julian Ossange and all of 1131 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,800 Speaker 1: these interviews when I press him, says, it's not Russia, 1132 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: it's not a state, meaning the leaks, the d n 1133 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 1: C emails that Hillary and and thousands of hours of 1134 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 1: t TV coverage have been used to say there's a 1135 01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 1: Trump Russia connection and the Russians leaked at two Wiki 1136 01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 1: leaks because Donald Trump wanted him to, and that resulted 1137 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: in Hillary not winning the election. That's pretty much been 1138 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 1: the narrative. But Julian Assan says no, and then Julian 1139 01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 1: Assang goes on on his own and mentions Seth Rich, 1140 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 1: I'm not going to play it all again because I 1141 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,000 Speaker 1: played it earlier, and so all I'm saying, is okay 1142 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,960 Speaker 1: if James Clapper, James Comey and Brennan and Diane Feinstein 1143 01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:19,800 Speaker 1: and Maxine Waters and Joe Mansion and everybody on the 1144 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:24,280 Speaker 1: Democratic side, after all these months and months of conspiracy theories, 1145 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 1: they go out there and say there's no evidence of collusion, Well, 1146 01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 1: that sounds like a conspiracy to me. And then of 1147 01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,520 Speaker 1: course all the other vicious attacks against the president, it 1148 01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 1: seems like they're trying to delegitimize him at best and 1149 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: remove him from office at some point if they possibly can. 1150 01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 1: And so I've only listened to the one guy in 1151 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:47,439 Speaker 1: the entire world that would know the source of where 1152 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:50,600 Speaker 1: those d n C emails came from, and that's Julian Assange. 1153 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 1: And I listened to it, and I started asking questions. Now, 1154 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 1: then we look at the issue, which is a separate issue. 1155 01:05:56,680 --> 01:06:02,040 Speaker 1: Who leaked to wiki leaks the sad, magic, horrific murder 1156 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 1: of an individual. I'm not going to talk about it 1157 01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:05,840 Speaker 1: because I promised the family and we had a great 1158 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:07,800 Speaker 1: exchange and I got a great thank you note from them, 1159 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:10,280 Speaker 1: and I really appreciated it because I do feel for them. 1160 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 1: It's horrible what's happened to them in terms of losing 1161 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 1: a loved one, And so I'm like, all right, I'm 1162 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 1: asking the questions, and I'm following all of this, and 1163 01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 1: I'm listening to Julian Osango. We have whistle blowers that 1164 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 1: take enormous risks and then unprompted, without missing a beat, 1165 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 1: goes into mentioning people's names, and then other sources get 1166 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 1: in touch with me and say, you know, there was 1167 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 1: a group, not one individual, but a group of people. 1168 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 1: I can't tell you everything I know because I haven't 1169 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 1: been able to confirm it all. But I've been told 1170 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 1: group of people within the d n C that are 1171 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: whistle blowers, truth seekers, truth tellers that discovered that, in fact, 1172 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:51,320 Speaker 1: the d n C had literally baked the fix was in, 1173 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:55,000 Speaker 1: that Bernie had no shot because of the collusion with 1174 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: the d n C, and they can prove it. I 1175 01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 1: don't know the answer. I don't have the answer, but 1176 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 1: neither does the media. And raising questions does not make 1177 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,280 Speaker 1: me a horrible person, but yet it has resulted in 1178 01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 1: this campaign which has now happened to many conservatives because 1179 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 1: their views aren't liked, although they're saying it's not a 1180 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 1: boycott anyway, So there is a new group. They actually 1181 01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:19,360 Speaker 1: started I think in May when I first heard about it. 1182 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 1: There are people that I've known for years. They started 1183 01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 1: it without calling me, without telling me. I thanked them 1184 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,439 Speaker 1: for supporting me at the time. Melanie Morgan, former talk 1185 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 1: show host and television host, and it has been a 1186 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 1: victim of Boycott's herself and the radio equalizer Brian Maloney, 1187 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 1: who have also known for years. Just for the record, 1188 01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:41,919 Speaker 1: I did not know you guys were starting this group. 1189 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 1: When did you started back in April or May or something? Well, 1190 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: we actually started May eighth, And no, we didn't let 1191 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 1: you know because frankly, I thought, well, maybe we shouldn't 1192 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 1: be giving it all that much attention, Sean. But in 1193 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: my mind, as I've seen this thing roll out since 1194 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 1: May eight when we started Stop the Scalpings, which is 1195 01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: a group that we'll talk about in a minute. But 1196 01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 1: in my mind, we are in an epic fight for 1197 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 1: good versus evil right now, and I think it is 1198 01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:11,480 Speaker 1: absolutely time for people to stand up and say who 1199 01:08:11,560 --> 01:08:15,120 Speaker 1: they support. Do they support? Media matters for America? Who's 1200 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 1: as you said, use millions and millions of dollars from 1201 01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: George Soros and Hillary Clinton to lie, to slander, to defame, 1202 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 1: attack to personally and professionally go after you a man 1203 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:28,200 Speaker 1: that I'm known for almost twenty years now, who is 1204 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:32,200 Speaker 1: the most honorable and has the most integrity of any 1205 01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:36,200 Speaker 1: person I have ever met. And I'm really serious about this, 1206 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:39,120 Speaker 1: or are you going to stand together with people who 1207 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 1: are generating this wicked, grotesque attack on freedom of speech? 1208 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 1: And I think it's just that simple, Sean. Now you're 1209 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 1: also saying, and Brian, welcome you to the program. You're saying, 1210 01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 1: it's not a boycott, but I'm going to start playing 1211 01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 1: because I've been accused of something that's false, and I've 1212 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:58,080 Speaker 1: been accused of being a conspiracy theorist, and I've only 1213 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:00,760 Speaker 1: asked questions. And yet there are how many others on 1214 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,719 Speaker 1: TV they never go They go after let's see Dr Laura. 1215 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: They were gone after Rush, They've gone after Beck, They've 1216 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 1: gone after O'Reilly, They've gone after you know. And by 1217 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:11,680 Speaker 1: the way, you know, some people say controversial things. I 1218 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 1: get it, but that's not the point here is they 1219 01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 1: want opposition. I didn't like what I don't like when 1220 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 1: Bill Morris suggests incests between the president and his daughter. 1221 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:24,680 Speaker 1: I don't like what Colbert said, but I don't. I 1222 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:29,120 Speaker 1: never saw conservatives do what the left always does. What's 1223 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:32,439 Speaker 1: the difference. Well, that's really a great point. And you know, 1224 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: I've been asked. I've been doing media interviews all day, Sean, 1225 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 1: and you know people are asking me, but aren't you 1226 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 1: just doing the same thing you're upset that the left 1227 01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,120 Speaker 1: is doing. Are you just trying to shut down all 1228 01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 1: the opposition voices? And no, we're not. What we're saying is, look, 1229 01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: here's a taste of what you've been doing to us 1230 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 1: every day for years and years, and we've sat there. 1231 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:53,000 Speaker 1: For some reason, we as conservatives are taking it. I 1232 01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: have no idea why, but we're saying this is what 1233 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,240 Speaker 1: it feels like when it comes back at you. And really, 1234 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:01,200 Speaker 1: one of the biggest conspiracy theorists, one of the biggest 1235 01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 1: conspiracy mongers out there on the airwaves today is Rachel Maddow. 1236 01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 1: And the bottom line is, for some reason, she has 1237 01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 1: this stellar mainstream reputation because the press is in love 1238 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:14,839 Speaker 1: with her for reasons I don't know. But the bottom 1239 01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 1: line is, when you actually go and analyze the content 1240 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 1: of her shows, she's peddling conspiracies every day. And now 1241 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 1: that her ratings are higher. You know, I'm telling people, Look, 1242 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:28,559 Speaker 1: she deserves the scrutiny that's been applied to conservatives. Now 1243 01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 1: you're saying it's not a boycott. All you've done is 1244 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:33,640 Speaker 1: you have put out the things that she said in 1245 01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: her own voice on her own show and a list 1246 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 1: of her advertisers on her program. Is that correct, Melanie? Yeah, 1247 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,080 Speaker 1: you can find it at Stop the Scalpings on Facebook 1248 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:46,440 Speaker 1: or just you know again, our Twitter handle s scalpings. 1249 01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: And you know what you're gonna find. You're going to 1250 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 1: find a list of all the cookie, crazy, nutty things 1251 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 1: that Rachel Maddow has ever said with UM not only 1252 01:10:56,280 --> 01:11:00,920 Speaker 1: attribution to Rachel Maddow, but a video clip her own words. 1253 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:05,160 Speaker 1: We have remember that Trump scoop, the tax scoop. She 1254 01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 1: teased us and teased us and tease us, and then 1255 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 1: it was just a ridiculous payoff that had no no 1256 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:12,680 Speaker 1: basis in fact, Well, she likes to live in the 1257 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 1: conspiracy swamp, so she can get down there and swim 1258 01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:18,240 Speaker 1: around with the alligators if she wants to. But you're 1259 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,679 Speaker 1: a real journalist, and it just infuriates me that people 1260 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:26,600 Speaker 1: UM from media matters have driven this boycott and generated 1261 01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,720 Speaker 1: this excitement around this boycott of your advertisers, and I 1262 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,639 Speaker 1: say it's time to fight fire with fire, And that's 1263 01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 1: exactly what we're doing. We're giving people the information that 1264 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:41,040 Speaker 1: they need to contact Rachel maddows advertisers and do exactly 1265 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:44,519 Speaker 1: to her advertisers what's been done to you. Create an 1266 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 1: awareness opportunity, Shawn as it were. You know, I have 1267 01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 1: so many things. Let's go to a couple of things, 1268 01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:52,599 Speaker 1: outrageous things that she said, and you know, Trump being 1269 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 1: a gateway drug to David Duke and the k k K. 1270 01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 1: One thing that's getting a lot of traction on social 1271 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:02,599 Speaker 1: media is the response to Donald Trump's speech from David Duke, 1272 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,360 Speaker 1: the former clan leader who is thinking about running for 1273 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:08,960 Speaker 1: Congress again or running for some elected office again. He says, 1274 01:12:09,040 --> 01:12:12,799 Speaker 1: great Trump speech, America, first stock wars, defeat the corrupt elites, 1275 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,120 Speaker 1: protect our borders, fair trade. Couldn't have said it better, 1276 01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 1: meaning couldn't have said it better myself. Uh. And a 1277 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,200 Speaker 1: lot of people who I think are critical of Donald 1278 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:24,120 Speaker 1: Trump generally look at praise like that from somebody like 1279 01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,840 Speaker 1: Donald Duke and wonder if he is a gateway drug, 1280 01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:33,000 Speaker 1: if there is something beyond Donald Trump himself. That means 1281 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,599 Speaker 1: a much greater transformation of the Republican Party into something 1282 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 1: that is going to be um new to mainstream hell. 1283 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,519 Speaker 1: And then let's go to a conspiracy cut sixteen, where 1284 01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: she promoted the idea that the Boston bombing conspiracies. Well 1285 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:51,200 Speaker 1: there's listen. They committed the bombing for the same kakaman 1286 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,560 Speaker 1: e conspiratorial nonsense that we've all had to become so 1287 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:55,679 Speaker 1: familiar with. But if this new reporting from the BBC 1288 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 1: in the Wall Street Journal is correct, that may not 1289 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 1: have been the only conspiratorial nonsense radicalism that was at 1290 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:05,840 Speaker 1: work here. I mean, really pick your poison, right, I mean, 1291 01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:09,040 Speaker 1: it's the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which Timberlins 1292 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 1: and I have also apparently had a nice copy of. 1293 01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 1: It's the Protocols of Zion, or it's nine eleven Truth, 1294 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 1: or it's what lack he sold to nada A Lee Hassan. 1295 01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:23,480 Speaker 1: There's always been an appeal to this necrotizing conspiracy theory radicalism, 1296 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:27,840 Speaker 1: which almost always butts up against justifying violence. All right, 1297 01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:29,720 Speaker 1: now we're gonna come back. We'll continue more of this. 1298 01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:33,120 Speaker 1: And what is the website again and stop the scalpings, 1299 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:36,559 Speaker 1: and it's Media Equalizer dot com is the best way 1300 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 1: to see all of this, and you can find our 1301 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:41,280 Speaker 1: Twitter handle and our Facebook page. What has been the reaction, 1302 01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:44,080 Speaker 1: I guess you released this at nine eastern today or thereabouts. 1303 01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:47,759 Speaker 1: What has the reaction been so far? It's been absolutely enormous. 1304 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:51,360 Speaker 1: Millions of people have responded already, and we have thousands 1305 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:54,720 Speaker 1: of people calling advertisers. I've never seen anything taken off 1306 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:58,439 Speaker 1: takeoff faster, just as our stop to Scott things effort 1307 01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,720 Speaker 1: has really taken off like a rockets of Media Equalizer 1308 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:03,920 Speaker 1: dot com is the place to see everything. And you're 1309 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 1: both saying that this is not going to be the 1310 01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:09,200 Speaker 1: only liberal if they continue to go after conservatives that 1311 01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:13,280 Speaker 1: you're going to be going after. Oh, absolutely right, Sean. 1312 01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:16,960 Speaker 1: I think that Laurence O'Donnell and Chris Matthews and all 1313 01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:21,400 Speaker 1: the people at ms NBCUM who feel free, what about CNN, 1314 01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:25,040 Speaker 1: what about what about Stephen Colbert, what about George Stefanopolos. 1315 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,120 Speaker 1: I think those are all people who are fair game. 1316 01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:32,080 Speaker 1: We have six thousand committed activists at our Facebook location 1317 01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:35,479 Speaker 1: who are phone banking even as we are speaking, right 1318 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:39,320 Speaker 1: now contacting advertisers for Rachel Maddow. And I think that 1319 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:41,760 Speaker 1: some of those people that you just mentioned may get 1320 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 1: a taste of it too. And you're also saying that 1321 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 1: if media matters stops, you'll stop. Well, sure, but will 1322 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 1: the probably not. I mean, I you know there, I 1323 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 1: think they're just committed leftist. But well, allright, we're gonna 1324 01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:58,679 Speaker 1: take a break. We'll come back more with Melanie Morgan, 1325 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:02,599 Speaker 1: more with Brian Maloney Radio Equalizer. Dot com is their 1326 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 1: website and it's hashtag stop the Scalpings. And I do 1327 01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 1: appreciate their support. And it's an interesting, is an interesting 1328 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,760 Speaker 1: moment of time because this has never happened to the 1329 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 1: left before, their own tactics being used against them. But 1330 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:16,719 Speaker 1: it's not a boycott. All it is is a listing 1331 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:20,800 Speaker 1: of insane conspiracy theories and advertisers. Are we now operating 1332 01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,639 Speaker 1: in a political environment which is not just politics as usual, 1333 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 1: which is not just a rowdy debate. Has enough kerosene 1334 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 1: been poured on the flames that the possibility of violence, 1335 01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 1: even assassination, is being positive as a real political tactic 1336 01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:37,600 Speaker 1: in the United States. I mean, in the past, we 1337 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:39,760 Speaker 1: have had, like you know, a first lady who worked 1338 01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 1: on health policy. Once we had a president who hired 1339 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:44,400 Speaker 1: his brother as attorney general. But we have come to 1340 01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:46,960 Speaker 1: think of even those things as exceptions to the rule. 1341 01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:49,000 Speaker 1: We have never thought of ourselves as a country where 1342 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,240 Speaker 1: like Ude and Cus get to be ministers or whatever 1343 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: they want. Right, we don't think of ourselves as a 1344 01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 1: ruling family kind of place. But now now that's what 1345 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:02,320 Speaker 1: we are day and cuse, let's compare the Trump kids 1346 01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 1: to them. And then and then I hear that, right, 1347 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:08,760 Speaker 1: was that Rachel talking about Obamacare opponents like wanting assassinations 1348 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,200 Speaker 1: or killing people? Well, absolutely was. So that's what she 1349 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:12,880 Speaker 1: was saying, was that anybody that was a post to 1350 01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 1: Obamacare was going to carry out actual political assassinations in 1351 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:19,639 Speaker 1: a in a real sense. So, you know, Rachel Maddow 1352 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 1: has been touting conspiracy theories for many, many years and 1353 01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:26,160 Speaker 1: getting away with murder. You know, we used to say 1354 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:30,959 Speaker 1: where my mama used to say, Rachel Maddow is cucku cocopo. 1355 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 1: I mean really, when he started to think about some 1356 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,679 Speaker 1: of the things that she's saying, it's unbelievable that there 1357 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:40,040 Speaker 1: hasn't been some sort of investigation of this language. If 1358 01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:42,759 Speaker 1: a conservative had said something like this on the radio 1359 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:45,760 Speaker 1: about Hillary Clinton or any other Democrat, you can you 1360 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 1: can guarantee that we would be under investigation by the FCC. 1361 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 1: You know, I want to be very clear here because 1362 01:16:51,439 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 1: I think this is important. Um, there is a remote 1363 01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,719 Speaker 1: that every American has, and there's an on and off switch, 1364 01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,360 Speaker 1: and there is a channel change, and you don't have 1365 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:04,160 Speaker 1: to watch any show. What I'm trying to understand, and 1366 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:06,760 Speaker 1: this is why I haven't supported boycotts, but I I 1367 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 1: really understand what you're doing here. I think what you're 1368 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:12,640 Speaker 1: saying is okay, Well, we can give out advertisers names too, 1369 01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 1: We're not calling for a boycott. And if people are 1370 01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 1: sick and tired of the double standard, like you just 1371 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: pointed out, I mean I can't imagine something similar being 1372 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 1: said about Obama's kids or you know, God forbid, if 1373 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:28,160 Speaker 1: death panels are mentioned by Republicans, that is the biggest 1374 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:32,839 Speaker 1: news ever. Or bizarre Russia Trump conspiracy theories where everybody 1375 01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 1: is on tape saying there's no evidence, but they keep 1376 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:37,920 Speaker 1: advancing it every day. UM, I guess the question is 1377 01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 1: at this point there there is such a double standard. 1378 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,720 Speaker 1: Am I getting to the root of what's driving this. 1379 01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 1: You absolutely are, Son, and that's the bottom line. We're 1380 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 1: not trying to wipe every voice off of every station 1381 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:52,760 Speaker 1: in every channel, left, right and center, because ultimately that's 1382 01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, everyone loses that game. But the point is 1383 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,400 Speaker 1: just to fireback, so we'll stop the scalpings and media 1384 01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 1: Equalized or dot com. What we're trying to do here 1385 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 1: is say, look, here's a taste of it right back 1386 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 1: at you. Here's what it feels like. I think Rachel 1387 01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:10,000 Speaker 1: Madow has a very thin skin. She lives in a bubble. 1388 01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:13,360 Speaker 1: She is not around people with opposing abuse. She doesn't 1389 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,160 Speaker 1: have people with opposing views on their show ever, didn't 1390 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,120 Speaker 1: on the radio, didn't take callers when she was a 1391 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 1: radio host ever, just in case someone might call the disagree. 1392 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,320 Speaker 1: These people live in a bubble in the Northeast. I 1393 01:18:24,400 --> 01:18:26,160 Speaker 1: live in the Northeast. I know the bubble they live in. 1394 01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:28,160 Speaker 1: I live in it too. But I can see what 1395 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:31,400 Speaker 1: they're doing, you know, to say that it's time, it 1396 01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:34,519 Speaker 1: really a way past time for conservatives to get up 1397 01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 1: some guts and start fighting back. We have to fight 1398 01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:39,880 Speaker 1: fire with fire, Sean. I mean, you've been leading this 1399 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 1: kind of fight back and push back over all the years. 1400 01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:45,640 Speaker 1: But where's everybody else? You know, you can't lead a 1401 01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:48,760 Speaker 1: parade if there's nobody behind. Did any liberal for you 1402 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:51,120 Speaker 1: to know that we're right there behind you? Now? No, 1403 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 1: and by the way, I appreciate it. Was there any 1404 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:56,280 Speaker 1: liberal besides Lanny Davis, who I've known for many years 1405 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:58,719 Speaker 1: that tweeted out in support of me? Did any any 1406 01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 1: other cable host that you guys know of, because I 1407 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,599 Speaker 1: don't watch these shows, But did any of them ever 1408 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,200 Speaker 1: say this is not right? I don't care if you 1409 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,639 Speaker 1: like Hannity or don't like Hannity, agree with him, don't 1410 01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: agree with him, think he's nuts, or don't think he's nuts, 1411 01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: don't go down this road. Because we, as the left, 1412 01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 1: as liberal support freedom of speech. Did any of them 1413 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 1: support me? Last week? Well, let me just say that 1414 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,920 Speaker 1: we've had over six thousand activists that stopped the scalpings, 1415 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 1: monitoring everything that's being said on Twitter about our campaign 1416 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 1: stand with Shawn, people like Jeanie Thomas and Joey and 1417 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:34,240 Speaker 1: Linda and those people. Thousands have been broken up into committees, 1418 01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:39,479 Speaker 1: and not one word has been reported from any host anywhere. So, 1419 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,880 Speaker 1: in other words, that they were perfectly fine standing back 1420 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:45,760 Speaker 1: on their liberal free speech principles. I don't know if 1421 01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 1: they've ever defended and culture or uh Milo Iianopolis and 1422 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:52,559 Speaker 1: is right to speak at Berkeley. I don't know if 1423 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 1: you know here you have all these conservatives that are 1424 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:58,280 Speaker 1: shut down on conservative campuses, and I just I just 1425 01:19:58,360 --> 01:19:59,840 Speaker 1: want to know one thing, so none of them to 1426 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: friend to me. Well, I'm gonna tell you this right 1427 01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 1: here now. As I said earlier, you're not calling for 1428 01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,680 Speaker 1: a boycott, but you know what, I support this. You 1429 01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:09,839 Speaker 1: know why I support this because this is their tactic 1430 01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,240 Speaker 1: and it's being thrown right back in their face. And 1431 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:16,920 Speaker 1: if it stops, you guys said you'll stop, and I will. 1432 01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:20,600 Speaker 1: And if they don't stop, it's gonna go. I'm guessing Colbert, 1433 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: all the other m S shows, all the other CNN shows, Stephanopolis, 1434 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And you're just giving people information. 1435 01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 1: You're not asking for them to boycott. We want to 1436 01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:32,839 Speaker 1: be very clear that we're not asking people to boycott, 1437 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:35,480 Speaker 1: but we are asking them to go get the advertiser 1438 01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 1: list and take a look at him and make some 1439 01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:40,479 Speaker 1: phone calls on behalf of all of us who really 1440 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: value freedom of speech in this country. I'm sick and 1441 01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:47,080 Speaker 1: tired of it. I'm really really that this thing, it 1442 01:20:47,200 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 1: has gotten this far. It is an American to do 1443 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: what has been done to you Sean Hannity, and everybody 1444 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:55,360 Speaker 1: would be happy on the left and these other cable 1445 01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 1: networks if I ended up on the cutting room floor 1446 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 1: basically dead at my voice side on because if they 1447 01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 1: really cared about free speech, they would say, don't watch them, 1448 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:06,160 Speaker 1: to turn the channel, don't but let him say what 1449 01:21:06,280 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 1: he wants. There's nothing that I'm saying that is outrageous, 1450 01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:11,880 Speaker 1: especially now. I had no idea because I don't watch 1451 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 1: her show that she said all these wacky things. But 1452 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:16,920 Speaker 1: you know what, I believe she has the right to 1453 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:20,000 Speaker 1: say it. But I also believe if liberals aren't going 1454 01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,920 Speaker 1: to defend the principle of free speech, and they're gonna 1455 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:26,439 Speaker 1: let conservatives be targeted, then I say what's good for 1456 01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,519 Speaker 1: them is good for what's good for us is good 1457 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:32,040 Speaker 1: for them. It's not a boycott, m within my principles, 1458 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:35,000 Speaker 1: and it's basically, you know what, it sounds like, mutually 1459 01:21:35,040 --> 01:21:37,280 Speaker 1: a short destruction to me. They want they're gonna they're 1460 01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:40,240 Speaker 1: gonna try and push everybody out of wanting to advertise, 1461 01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:42,679 Speaker 1: and why they would let that go there is their business. 1462 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:45,640 Speaker 1: But but you know what they've this has been. They 1463 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:48,040 Speaker 1: put a bull's eye right on my forehead. This is 1464 01:21:48,080 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 1: a kill shot, as I said to the Huffing the 1465 01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 1: Post last week, and I know that they want me 1466 01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:57,080 Speaker 1: out of radio and TV, they want my voice silenced. 1467 01:21:57,240 --> 01:21:59,800 Speaker 1: So okay, let's see what happens with them, and maybe 1468 01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:01,679 Speaker 1: I'll wake up and say, you know what, this freedom 1469 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:03,920 Speaker 1: of speech thing is a really good principle. Maybe we 1470 01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:06,200 Speaker 1: ought to all stand by it, and maybe we all 1471 01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:09,400 Speaker 1: ought to support each other, whether we agree politically or not. Um, 1472 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 1: I support Rachel's right to be frankly conspiratorial nutty. That's 1473 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:16,680 Speaker 1: what she sounds like to me. God bless her. But 1474 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 1: she didn't defend me. Nobody else defended me and my right. 1475 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,920 Speaker 1: And I'm not a conspiracy theorist, despite of what they say. 1476 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 1: So all right, let's go. You say that Sehn, that 1477 01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:30,439 Speaker 1: you know Rachel Matta lives in a conspiracy swap and 1478 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:33,200 Speaker 1: that's what they accuse you of. This whole thing began 1479 01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:36,240 Speaker 1: over the murder of twenty seven year old Seth Rich. 1480 01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:39,439 Speaker 1: That's a fact. Not a conspiracy. This young man was 1481 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 1: horrifically gunned down um in Washington, d C. And nobody, 1482 01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:48,520 Speaker 1: nobody was looking into it, investigating it. That's what journalism 1483 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:50,800 Speaker 1: is all about. And I know because I've done it 1484 01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:54,120 Speaker 1: for over thirty years. And what really puzzles me is 1485 01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:57,280 Speaker 1: why anybody would call you a conspiracy that because you're 1486 01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:00,479 Speaker 1: asking questions and trying to shine the like, you know, 1487 01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:03,640 Speaker 1: a tragedy that has taken place. Melany. I had a 1488 01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:06,560 Speaker 1: great exchange with the family, and the family was on 1489 01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 1: video saying that they wanted answers, and the brother who 1490 01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:13,320 Speaker 1: had a very nice exchange with it, I really liked 1491 01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:16,240 Speaker 1: him a lot, you know. He he had said thank 1492 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 1: you after I said what I said in the air, 1493 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:19,519 Speaker 1: But I also said, I'm not going to stop doing 1494 01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 1: what I do and I'm going to investigate. And all 1495 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,400 Speaker 1: I know is what we know at this time, and 1496 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:27,840 Speaker 1: that is that the guy that knows, Julian Assange, says 1497 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:31,360 Speaker 1: it wasn't Russia. The guy that knows the only one 1498 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:34,960 Speaker 1: that knows for sure, Julian Assange brought up a name 1499 01:23:35,040 --> 01:23:37,479 Speaker 1: on his own. That's all we know. We we've heard 1500 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 1: from Feinstein, Maxie Waters Joe Manchin Clapper, Brennan and uh 1501 01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:45,400 Speaker 1: and others and call me that there is no evidence 1502 01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:48,360 Speaker 1: of a Trump Russia conspiracy. By the way, MSNBC and 1503 01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:51,599 Speaker 1: CNN have been living on for months and months and months. 1504 01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 1: Who's the conspiracy theorist here? Well, that's that's absolutely hit. 1505 01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 1: And what I was telling a reporter earlier who is 1506 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 1: trying to go up and how you know how crazy 1507 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:01,479 Speaker 1: it is that you're about Seth Rich And I just said, 1508 01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, Rachel Madow has never met a Russian oligarch 1509 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:07,560 Speaker 1: that she couldn't tie to Donald Trump with you know, 1510 01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:10,840 Speaker 1: anybody's own hundred stars. And the Rusta Oil Company is uh, 1511 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:13,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's secretly working with Trump, and it 1512 01:24:13,520 --> 01:24:16,560 Speaker 1: just becomes a certain own cartoonist. And I think that 1513 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:19,640 Speaker 1: when we've really succeeded in this effort is when the 1514 01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:24,320 Speaker 1: headlines are instead about Mattow being embattled and under fire 1515 01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:27,400 Speaker 1: and you know, on the ropes, and when we see 1516 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:29,360 Speaker 1: and I'm not again, I'm not trying to get Rachel 1517 01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 1: Maddow fired, but we get to the point where the 1518 01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 1: tables are turned and they're the ones running for cover 1519 01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 1: that I think the conservatives will have finally stood up 1520 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: and said, okay, but finally fighting back. What took us 1521 01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:43,759 Speaker 1: so long? What have we been doing? I don't understand 1522 01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:47,040 Speaker 1: my own side sometimes why we take so long to 1523 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 1: fight back. Yeah, that that's such a great point, Brian. 1524 01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 1: I was at giving a speech today in front of 1525 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:55,160 Speaker 1: the Marine County Conservatives and Wrine County Forum. I know 1526 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:58,160 Speaker 1: it sounds kind of counteract that in the San Francisco 1527 01:24:58,320 --> 01:25:01,640 Speaker 1: area that there are conservatives, but we're here, and I 1528 01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,360 Speaker 1: said the same thing, when our conservatives going to stand 1529 01:25:04,439 --> 01:25:06,439 Speaker 1: up and fight for the people we believe in, the 1530 01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:09,599 Speaker 1: people who have been on the leading edge of this front. 1531 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,960 Speaker 1: And I got a standing ovation when I started talking 1532 01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:16,760 Speaker 1: about stop the scalpings, which is our effort to support you, 1533 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:20,880 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity, and we also use Twitter hashtag stand with Shawn. 1534 01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,720 Speaker 1: We have to fight back in way past time. If 1535 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,320 Speaker 1: we don't, if we don't stop this right now, where 1536 01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:29,000 Speaker 1: are they going to stop? Are they going to stop 1537 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:32,439 Speaker 1: at Sean Hannity or Bill O'Reilly or any of the 1538 01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:35,640 Speaker 1: other people at Fox. No, they won't. David Brock of 1539 01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 1: Media Matters will keep going over the next one, and 1540 01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:40,519 Speaker 1: the next one, and the next one and it's very 1541 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 1: a Lensky like they isolate, they target, they take out, 1542 01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 1: They isolate, they target, they take out, and listen. I 1543 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 1: gotta be honest, I think this is brilliant on your part, 1544 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 1: and I also think it's a very very important fight 1545 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:55,880 Speaker 1: for the country. And as an advocate that I've been 1546 01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:58,640 Speaker 1: my whole career. How many times have people stutten so 1547 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:01,000 Speaker 1: mad at me when I say Bill is good for America? Why? 1548 01:26:01,120 --> 01:26:04,439 Speaker 1: Because Bill Maher says what he wants and I just 1549 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 1: want the same freedom as a conservative, not one liberal host, 1550 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 1: not one defended me as I came under fire, as 1551 01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 1: they try to ruin my show, ruin my reputation, get 1552 01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:18,639 Speaker 1: me off the air. Now, they haven't right to say 1553 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:20,360 Speaker 1: anything you want about me. But at the end of 1554 01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:23,600 Speaker 1: the day, when you want to silence voices through this 1555 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 1: tactic of attacking their advertisers, everybody knows you get their advertisers, 1556 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 1: the show is gone, you lose your advertising base, You're done. 1557 01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:32,639 Speaker 1: Bill Maher ought to be the guy that sends you though, 1558 01:26:32,680 --> 01:26:35,680 Speaker 1: because sometimes he is a little bit independent minded. He 1559 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:39,080 Speaker 1: is the one that after the left about hi. And 1560 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 1: as Bill Maher, me Rush Limbaugh, Melanie Morgan, I think 1561 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:45,679 Speaker 1: we're in this. We defended him back in the ABC 1562 01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 1: Politic in correct days. We did you know? My father 1563 01:26:49,040 --> 01:26:53,200 Speaker 1: was actually a liberal and I know I I kind 1564 01:26:53,200 --> 01:26:55,960 Speaker 1: of went to the other direction of rebellion. I don't know, 1565 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:58,080 Speaker 1: but he was. He was a member. He was a 1566 01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:01,400 Speaker 1: general counsel for the a c L you thirty years ago, 1567 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:04,240 Speaker 1: and he would be spinning in his grave if he 1568 01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 1: knew what liberals are doing to conservatives. He always said, 1569 01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:11,880 Speaker 1: the more voices the better, don't try to silence anybody's voice. 1570 01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 1: The more there is a vivid and in robust discussion, 1571 01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 1: absolutely for this country. That last point, and you're doing 1572 01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,479 Speaker 1: this only is they continue to try and shut down 1573 01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:25,080 Speaker 1: conservative voices. How can people help in this effort? What 1574 01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:26,519 Speaker 1: do you want people to do and how do you 1575 01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:28,760 Speaker 1: want people to help? And where can they go? Well, 1576 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 1: there's a variety of things they can do. First of all, 1577 01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:34,920 Speaker 1: everything they need to know is that Media Equalizer dot com, 1578 01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 1: Media Equalizer dot com advertiser lists through there our press releases. 1579 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:43,160 Speaker 1: They're all the information about what Rachel Maddow has been 1580 01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:45,960 Speaker 1: saying on the air, and then also links to our 1581 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 1: Facebook page Stop the scalpings. SU's hashtag stop the scalpings, 1582 01:27:50,200 --> 01:27:54,439 Speaker 1: and then a Twitter it is scalpings, so that those 1583 01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:57,600 Speaker 1: are places you can go.
