Going up next, 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:14.440 Our final news roundup and information overload. 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:18.560 Our right News Roundup and information overload. Our toll free 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.000 on number is eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean, 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.400 if you want to be a part of the program. 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:27.959 I had said this for many, many years. I said 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:32.280 it at the time when I was on radio. I 0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:36.679 started when Reagan was president, and I said that I 0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:41.559 believe that strategic defense will probably one day go down 0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:45.760 as President Reagan's greatest legacy. And I would believe, I 0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:49.080 would argue that when you see the Iron Dome and 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:52.080 it's shooting, you know, ballistic missiles out of the sky, 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:55.800 hundreds of them at a time, fired from Iran into Israel, 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.960 that is evidence that my prediction was correct. Well, President 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.800 and Trump wants to take what was started what forty 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.960 years ago, and now bring it to the next level. 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:08.400 And he's talking about the Golden Dome that would protect 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:13.919 our entire nation against any missile attack, ballistic missiles, nuclear 0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:18.440 weapons fired from anywhere around the globe and prevent it 0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:22.840 from killing what could be hundreds of thousands of Americans 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.680 or maybe more. I think it probably in his case 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:31.400 as well, ultimately one day, knowing that evil has always 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:35.639 existed and will continue to exist, probably be his greatest legacy. 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.680 And he made the announcement with Pete Hegseth earlier this week. 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.280 We covered it on this program. Anyway, here to talk 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:45.160 about this is Chairman Brian mass Congressman Flyer of Florida. 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:48.800 He's on the Foreign Affairs Committee, and he introduced the 0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:52.320 bill with the President in the Oval Office to honor 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:56.680 fallen law enforcement officials by awarding a new medal to 0:02:56.840 --> 0:03:01.160 the families and he himself. By the way, if you 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:03.560 don't know his background, you need to know his background. 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:06.520 He followed in his father's footsteps. He served in the 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:10.320 US Army for more than twelve years. He got many medals, 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:15.919 the Bronze Star, the Army Commendation, Medal of Valor, Purple Heart, 0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:22.160 Metal Defense, Notorious Service Medal. He was deployed in Afghanistan. 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.880 He worked as a bomb disposal expert under the elite 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:31.240 Joint Special Operations Command, and the last improvised explosive device 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:35.520 that he found resulted in catastrophic injuries, which included the 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.640 loss of both of his legs. He likes so many 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:44.000 others are. He is a hero and deserves nothing but 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:45.960 our honor and respect. And he's been a long time 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:49.280 front of this program. Brian, thank you for being with us. 0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.520 We appreciate your time, we appreciate your hard work. 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:53.320 Yeah no, thank you for having me, and thank you 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.760 for thinking about this medal of sacrifice that President Trump 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.760 just had a brilliant idea. Hey, you know what, there's 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:03.960 nothing like the Medal of Honor. There's nothing that goes 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:08.680 directly from the presidency to the families of these fallen 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:12.200 law enforcement officers or first responders or firefighters, and we 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:13.960 need to change that. And he looked at me, standing 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.960 that we were at a memorial for three fallen Palm 0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.120 Beach County Sheriff's deputies, that they were all very tragically killed. 0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:22.240 We were at a memorial for them. They said, Brian, 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:25.200 get that done, and that became the mission, and his 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:27.680 son Eric and I and Tiffany's and others, we all 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.039 started working on it immediately. 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:33.400 Well, it's pretty amazing. Let's talk about the Golden Dome 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.320 and what the President laid out, what the vision is. 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:41.239 I know it's expensive, but I mean, in this world, 0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:46.200 knowing world's history, knowing evil exists, I don't really see 0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:49.240 an alternative. And I think the fact that the President 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:53.080 is preparing for it now is brilliant. You saw the 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:56.520 reaction this week from both China and Russia. They don't 0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:00.279 like what the President is doing because they would like 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.240 to know, in the back of their minds they'd be 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.760 able to nuke us and get away with it, and 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.640 that would take that opportunity away. The President believes it's 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:11.560 a three year project. It's certainly an ambitious project, but 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:15.919 I believe, you know, with AI and technology advancing in 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:18.480 terms of warfare, I believe that it's achievable. 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:20.200 Your thoughts, Yeah. 0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:22.440 You know, And we also know this about China and Russia. 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:26.279 They have both deployed offensive weapons into space as well, 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:28.440 and so this is something that there's a defense against 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.040 that they don't want us to be able to defend 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:32.200 against them or around. They don't want us to be 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.760 able to defend against them parking a sub off of 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.880 our shore, which would be infinitely more dangerous than what 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:41.520 the Cuban missile crisis was decades ago. Parking dukes off 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.320 of off of our coast in Cuba, they don't want 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:45.719 us to be able to and this will be high 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:47.560 tech and low tech. They don't want us to be 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.880 able to defend against inexpensive but very precise drone technology 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:54.320 and bringing those things to our shores. So all of 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:57.280 the capabilities that we bring to bear to protect our borders. 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.920 That's again to do what is always President Trump's mantra. 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:04.680 It's always at the forefront of his mind, protecting Americans, 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:09.159 making Americans safer, making Americans more prosperous, and this means, 0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:12.440 like you said, fulfilling a dream that President Reagan had. 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:15.120 That now President Trump says, we had the technology that 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:16.120 we can do this for real. 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:19.960 Well, I mean, do you agree with me that. Remember 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:24.599 when Reagan introduced a strategic defense and he was mocked 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.680 and he was ridiculed and all of those things, And 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.360 you know what, it turned out to be a stroke 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:33.360 of genius on his part. And look at the Iron 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.200 Dome in Israel. And by the way, it's been deployed 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:40.240 in many countries around the world. But it was American ingenuity, 0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:43.040 technology and his vision that got it got it up. 0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:46.200 And I was next to the Iron Dome. I've been 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.679 to Israel many times. I was there when it was fired. 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.000 I watched it take missiles out of the sky. It's 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.040 a sight to see it. I got to tell you. 0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.000 It's incredible to see it. But also when you see 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:58.920 that deployed, you realize that every single time it is 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.919 intercepting one of those pieces of ordnance in the sky. 0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:06.440 Those pieces of ordnance are fired to indiscriminately kill anybody 0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:09.240 that they can in epicenters of population. That's what they're 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.200 trying to fire them to. It's not to hit just 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:14.640 military targets. Is is there an American person that would 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:16.240 be in the way of that that they could hit, 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.240 Or in the case of Israel, is there any Jew, 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:20.560 any Israeli in the way that they can hit in 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:22.680 that and they would love to hit them, and we 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.040 have that capability to knock them out of the sky. 0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.240 And we're going to say, let's bring those batteries to 0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:29.600 the United States of America to all of our borders, 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:33.400 whether it's tactical high altitude area defense, to defend or 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:38.040 to defend against intercontinental ballistic missiles, to defend against something 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:42.040 coming out of the atmosphere and from space, to defend 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:44.720 against something coming again off of a submarine or off 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:46.640 of a ship, or something that they could bring across 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:50.800 to our shores. It's making sure that we have these capabilities. 0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:52.960 We know that we have the technology for it. Let's 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.560 bring it to bear on behalf of us, who are 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:59.320 the greatest producers of defense articles anywhere across the globe. 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:01.120 Let's make sure we have it for Americans. 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:04.440 How does it work? How do you envision this working? 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.160 I think you envisioned it at a number of different levels. 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:11.080 Part of it you envisioned as Patriot batteries or something 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:13.640 similar to a Patriot battery, which is what's like the 0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:16.360 Iron Dome system in Israel. Part of it you envision, 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.760 like what I said, tactical high altitude area defense, and 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:21.920 a lot of this you can layer on top of 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.960 what Israel has easier because Israel is a very small 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.680 land mass, but they have a number of different programs 0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:30.520 Iron Dome and David Sling and the Aero system. So 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:34.559 those are all different levels of being able to intercept 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.800 ordinance coming in from different distances at different speeds, at 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.040 different altitudes, and these are the kind of things that 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:44.559 have to be calculated, but across an infinitely larger land 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.560 masks that is the United States of America. 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:50.360 Yeah, pretty amazing. You know, Memorial Days coming up, and 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:53.640 I don't think a lot of us spend enough time 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:59.000 really appreciating the sacrifice of so many for the liberties 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.960 that we all take for granted. We think about Memorial 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.120 Day with thinking about getting together with friends and family 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:09.000 and barbecues and for me, you know, Florida Panthers hockey games, 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:12.600 playoff games, and the things that we all enjoy to do. 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:16.160 And I always try to remind people on these holidays 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:18.560 to pause and just just think for a minute, maybe 0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:22.320 say a prayer for all of those people that gave 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:26.880 it all for our country and people like yourself. You know, 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.559 I can't imagine, you know, you have both your legs 0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:33.200 blown off by an IED and now you have to 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.600 rebuild your life and rebuild it. You did at the 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:40.640 highest level. But I'm sure that that that that had 0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:45.760 to be both psychologically and physically, you know, the biggest 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.440 challenge in your life. Tell us about how that was 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.800 for you so people really can understand it. 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.520 It was Sean and it wasn't the biggest challenge. It 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.120 was the biggest challenge because you know, physically what was 0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:59.080 in front of me. All of a sudden, I'm waking 0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:02.160 up in a hospital be and Walter Reid with no legs, 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:05.280 with no ability to do things for myself, Tubes coming 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.280 out of every part of me, and swollen you know, 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:11.040 beyond you know, well beyond what my size was before 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:15.440 from the trauma of this explosion. But not difficult because 0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:17.760 of who we Americans are and when I was injured 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.959 in twenty ten, there was fifty sixty seventy men and 0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.040 women a month that were waking up in a condition 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:26.760 like my own. And that doesn't count those that were 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.840 of course killed that we remember on Memorial Day and 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.760 those that I recovered alongside. We were just pushing each 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.480 other every single day. You're gonna, you know, walk two 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:39.560 laps on those prosthetic lives, I'm gonna walk three laps. 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.839 You're gonna carry ten pounds, I'm gonna carry twenty pounds. 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.800 That's that's the American spirit. That's who we are, and 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.520 that's why we always overcome. That's why we're always better 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:50.240 than others, because that spirit's always inside of us and 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:53.320 we draw upon it in the most important moments of 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:56.560 our lives. And to bring those those fallen service members 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.800 into it, to go to what you started with on us, Yes, 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.280 please say a prayer for them, Say a prayer for 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:05.600 their families that gave up their patriots, that would give 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.920 anything to have five more minutes with them or just 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.920 one more hug, you know, man, bring the feet of 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:16.640 tears thinking about it, you know, and not just say 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.880 a prayer for them, Say their name, read their story, 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:24.360 learn about their sacrifice, and inspire the next generation to say, 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.320 you know what, there was a hell of a lot 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:29.079 that was done for my country on my behalf by 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:31.240 others that gave their life. What can I do for 0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:32.160 my country? 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.400 It's so I mean, I cannot ever articulate it as 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:36.080 well as you can. 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:37.160 I'll I'll never forget this. 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:40.440 Brian and I did this with Colonel North and we 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:43.400 were doing these freedom concerts around the country, and we 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.520 did raise a lot of money for the children of 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:50.480 slain soldiers or severely injured soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq, 0:11:50.559 --> 0:11:55.040 specifically for a college fund for them. And I remember 0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:57.920 the trips we made to Bethesda and to Walter Reid, 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:03.000 and I remember meeting these young men that had body 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:06.000 parts blown off and watching. 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:06.200 Them in pain. 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:08.440 I remember one young man in particular. They were they 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:12.400 were trying, were hoping that his bone would grow back together. 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.480 They had all these rods in it and it was 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:17.240 so painful. They'd move them and he'd be like screaming 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:21.360 because the pain was so excruciating for him. And I 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:24.960 remember walking out of those experiences and walking out of 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:30.760 those hospitals embarrassed, because, you know, thinking that how can 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:34.640 I possibly ever think I have a problem after seeing 0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:37.520 and witnessing what these guys are going through? 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:39.760 Does does that make sense to you. 0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:42.880 I think it does make sense, and I think it's 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:44.679 the right way to look at it. You know, none 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:46.560 of us want people to look at us and say, 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:49.240 you know, oh, poor me, poor that guy. We don't 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:52.120 look at ourselves as victims. We knew full well the 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:55.920 hazards of our chosen professions in being service members, Army, 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:59.559 Air Force, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard. You know, we knew, 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:02.160 we knew that hazards of it. All of us want 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:05.400 to come home to our families. But let that sacrifice 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:09.559 be an inspiration that, you know what, you can keep going. 0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:11.920 You know what, you can pick up your life. And 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:14.760 you're not made of glass. If you fall down, You're 0:13:14.800 --> 0:13:17.400 not just going to shatter into a thousand pieces. And 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:19.680 the fact of the matter is, again, we as Americans, 0:13:19.880 --> 0:13:25.040 when we have these extreme traumatic events, we don't curl 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:28.400 up in a quarter and quit and start crying. We 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:30.720 own it. We look it in the eye, and we 0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:32.480 give it a boot in the backside. And I think 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:34.560 Colonel North would say it in the exact same way. 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:36.520 We own it, and we give it a size ten 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:40.800 in the backside. And that's what makes us great. And 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.880 the more we do that, the more that we inspire 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:46.480 somebody else to do that. And I don't think we 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:48.439 do it for the sake of inspiration, but it has 0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:51.600 to inspire other people to say, yep, I can do it, 0:13:51.640 --> 0:13:54.199 you know. And I'd say this about myself show I'm 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.959 not special. I'm not a special individual. I'm an American, 0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:00.319 and as an American, I just made the choice to 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:01.600 overcome you kind. 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:02.960 Of are special. All right, quick freak. 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:06.600 We'll come back more with Congressman Brian mast he's with 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.000 the Foreign Affairs Committee. We're talking about the Golden Dome 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:11.400 and of course Memorial Day on Monday, and much more. 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:13.480 We'll get to your calls as well. Eight hundred and 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.760 ninety four one Sean as we continue, and Jimmy Fayla 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:19.280 coming up. Hopefully he'll put a smile on your face 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:22.960 as we continue. Right, we continue now with Brian Masters, 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:27.080 with us talking about the President's outline for the Golden 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:30.640 Dome defense system and also Memorial Day coming up on Monday. 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:34.280 I'll never forget one one visit. And as we were 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:37.640 walking out of the hospital there was we ran into 0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:41.320 a guy. He was basically getting off his bicycle, had 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:45.040 been to Walter Reed had lost both his legs and 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:49.120 rode his bicycle. However many miles it was a pretty 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:53.000 long distance. So if I recall correctly, to go to 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:56.600 go there and talk to the guys that were going 0:14:56.640 --> 0:15:00.360 through what he had been through, to encourage them and say, look, 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:02.840 I just rode my bike twenty miles to get here, 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:06.080 and let them know that there is life on the 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:07.000 other side of it. 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:09.000 To take that point. You know, one of the guys 0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:11.320 that I specifically remember on Memorial Day, one of my 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:15.840 closest friends over there, Lance Boegler. This individual died on 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.280 his ninth deployment in twelve years. You want to talk 0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:22.120 about being old, this is a ninth time overseas in 0:15:22.160 --> 0:15:25.520 a twelve year window. And that's when he was killed. 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.320 He was a mortarman with the seventy fifth Ranger Regiment 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:31.200 and an enemy mortar came in and landed directly and 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:34.240 what was his mortar pit, and it killed him and 0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:37.080 injured some of my other friends. And this was just 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.520 just after I was injured on a different mission. But 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:43.640 that's what war looked like at that time, and for 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.360 many others that kind of pace of tour of duty. 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:51.240 Yeah, well, you certainly are a hero to me. I'm 0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:55.240 so grateful for your experience sharing it with our audience 0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:57.640 and what you're doing with the Golden Dome and all 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.720 you do in Congress and an inspiration for all. And 0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:03.560 I hope people will take time this Memorial Day to 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:07.080 remember all of the people that have given it all 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:11.320 so that we can live free, because freedom is not free, period. 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:13.440 Msman, we appreciate you man more than you know. 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:13.800 Thanks. 0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:16.520 Eight Shawn is a number you want to be a 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:17.720 part of the program. 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:24.080 Kennedy uncovers the real truth about the politics of DC. 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:30.640 He's your watchdog, one big brother. Every day Cannity is 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:32.320 on right now. 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:35.600 I'm twenty five now till the top of the hour, 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:37.480 eight hundred and nine one Shawn. If you want to 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:39.560 be a part of the program. One way to save money, 0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:42.840 not sacrifice service, is to make the switch to my 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:46.960 cell phone provider, a veteran own company and that is 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.520 Pure Talk. It's a great company. You get the same 0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:52.920 exact service. They use, the same exact cell towers, the 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:56.120 same exact five G network as AT and T, Verizon 0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:59.320 and T Mobile, the big carriers, and the average family 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:03.280 for the same servis is saving over one thousand dollars 0:17:03.400 --> 0:17:05.680 a year. And by the way, our friends at pure talk, 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:08.600 they are now on a mission. They have partnered with 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:12.960 another advertiser on this program, Allegiance Flag, which is the 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:17.680 highest quality American flag period hands sown in beautiful Charleston, 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:22.600 South Carolina, and they will give one thousand US vets 0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:26.560 a flag in time for these patriotic holidays, starting Monday 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:28.600 with the Memorial Day and then the fourth of July 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:32.199 and Flag Day, et cetera. And you will be contributing 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:35.200 to this just by making the switch to pure talk 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:38.320 for the same service and saving a fortune, and you'll 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.840 be helping deserving veterans all at the same time. I mean, 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:45.160 you got Memorial Day, Flag Day, the US Army's Birthday, 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:50.280 you've got National PTSD Awareness Day, Independence Day. Anyway, they 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:52.400 have planned starting at just twenty five bucks a month, 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:55.880 you get unlimited talk, unlimited text, plenty of data, and 0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:59.520 of course the average family saves over one thousand bucks 0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:02.000 a year for the same service. All right, the switch 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:05.320 it's simple, it's fast, it's easy. You dial pound two fifty, 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.440 you say the keyword save now. It's pound two to 0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:12.560 fifty keywords save now to not only save money, for 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:16.720 the same service, but support veterans from Pure Talk America's 0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:21.320 wireless company. I am very pleased and proud and so happy. 0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:25.199 I miss being out on the road. I used to 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:29.560 travel a lot more. I just enjoy having the opportunity 0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:33.840 to meet all of you that make this show possible, Hannity. 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:34.720 On Fox News possible. 0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:38.480 So as a result, I was kicking around some ideas 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:43.879 I was able to be the EMPC of Fox Nations 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:46.280 Patriot Awards and People Go Go. 0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:48.040 I had no idea that you were this funny. 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:50.959 Well, I do a serious news show on TV and 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:53.240 on radio, though we do goof around with Linda quite 0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:56.480 a bit on this program. And anyway, I've talked to 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.800 Jimmy Fayla and he travels the country almost every weekend 0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:02.479 and he does his comedy show. He's one of the 0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:05.399 funniest guys I've ever met. So we put together a 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:09.280 show and it's called Punchlines and Patriots. It's going to 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:13.080 be me and Jimmy Fayla. It's two shows only as 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:15.840 of now. All right, the first show is going to 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:19.719 be Saturday, June the twenty eighth, seven pm. It's in 0:19:19.800 --> 0:19:23.920 Clearwater in Florida at Ruth Eckert Hall. All right, now, 0:19:24.040 --> 0:19:27.320 there's only limited seats available. I know a lot of 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:29.840 seats have sold already. I don't know how many. I 0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:33.040 don't follow that. And then the next night, Sunday, June 0:19:33.080 --> 0:19:38.119 twenty ninth, again seven pm, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, at the 0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:41.520 Broward Center for Performing Arts, that show is going to 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:45.080 be filmed for a later date for Fox Nation and 0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:46.960 you can be on TV and we'll make sure you 0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:49.840 can wave to mom and dad and grandma and grandpa. Anyway, 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:52.399 so if you live in Tampa, if you live in Clearwater, 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:55.439 if you're in Fort Lauderdale, if you're in Miami, if 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:58.359 you're in Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, if you're in Boca, 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:01.040 if you're in Jacksonville, guess what, you can make it 0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:03.280 to the show, and we'd love to have you come. 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.879 And my understanding is they tried to make tickets as 0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:10.359 inexpensive as possible so everybody can have a great time. 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:14.120 And for me, I'm doing this this. I just love 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:16.119 being out on the road. And anyway, Jimmy Failow is 0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:18.480 with us now. I don't know why you ever agreed 0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:22.960 to do this with me, but you know, do you 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.440 know I'm putting my entire life and career at risk 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.720 here because you do this professionally. You are one of 0:20:29.800 --> 0:20:32.240 the funniest people I've ever met in my life. 0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:33.240 You're to me. 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.960 I've watched your stand up. You're like Chappelle and Chris Rock, 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:39.040 and I am dumb enough to get on the stage 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:39.280 with you. 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:40.200 What am I thinking? 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:43.760 But remember this, we're not competing. We're a team. It's 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:45.960 like you know, it's like Jill Bid, you were a team. 0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:47.960 You do your act, I do my act, then we 0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:50.000 do a part, then we do Q and A and 0:20:50.000 --> 0:20:52.520 we get on the stage together. But your act is 0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:55.400 going to be so much better than mine. That's the problem. 0:20:56.000 --> 0:20:59.240 You're gonna be great. Honestly. The only advice I have 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.639 for real is because your questioned the Patriot Awards. But 0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:05.640 one of the reasons obviously the tickets aren't very expensive 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:07.639 is one we want it to be accessible, but two, 0:21:07.920 --> 0:21:09.760
