Speaker 1 (00:01):
I thank you, Scott Channon, Thanks to all of you
for being Whether those write down are toll free telephone
number at eight hundred nine four one, Sean if you
want to be a part of this extravaganza on this Friday,
Happy Friday to everybody. Ever. Notice the weeks just fly
on by. You know, I really don't know whether to
(00:22):
be mad or to be you know, take it as
a compliment. But Linda, you know, has kind of made
this thing go a little viral. I'm that somehow, even
though I've never said a word to anybody, never discussed it,
never even thought about a truth, be told that, Oh
(00:43):
it's all the chatter online that I'm going to run
for president. I guess I should take it as a
compliment that they're like, are a couple of people that
like the idea. Now, I'm not saying the masses never
thought about it, but I think I came up with
a better plan than then you being vice president, and
I think you probably will even approve of it. Okay,
(01:04):
if I ever, if I ever did consider running, I
wouldn't pick you for VP.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
I hate it.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, you know what the don't I don't know what
the plan is? Well, if I picked you for VP,
all of a sudden I died from some mysterious poisoning
within like three months into my presidency, it'd be over
faken six months. You'd give me some wopping six months.
I really appreciate that. A nice of you, kind of you,
(01:34):
thought full of you. I'd run only if I could
pick dj T as my vice president? How cool would
that be?
Speaker 2 (01:42):
He's already done the presidential thing twice? Why would he
be your VP?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
But you know what I'd do because if you go
in the Oval office, then there's this if there's a haul,
and on the right side there is a small bathroom,
like you know, just the bathroom bathroom, you know, like
a powder room bathroom. And then to the left side
is the Monica Lewinsky Room, which Trump has turned into
like a memorabilia room, and he's very generous. You go
(02:07):
in there and basically it's like take anything you want.
You can take a million hats, even as a Trump Bible.
He's got all this cool stuff. The key which by
the way, he has to give you that one, the
key to the White House, and I have one. Did
you know that?
Speaker 3 (02:22):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Okay, he gave me one when I did there.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
When you take over the country, that's great.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I am not thinking I'm not Yeah, no, I'm doing them.
I'm only doing this for kicks and giggles. So let
me be very very straightforward about it. This is not
a stephen A. Smith play. And I love my buddy
Steve and I but I called him when they I'm like,
you gotta stop. It has to this has to end
because he was enjoying it too much.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
So I Kennedy superpas, I'm getting it. It's all fake.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Well I didn't know that was in the works. Uh,
but I have. But don't you think the better choice?
Because then all right, and then next to that is
a dining room. And then on the other side of that,
they took what used to be in office and that
is now part of the Oval office, and it's it's
it's kind of become like, I think, what did the
(03:12):
President tell me he was thinking of making it the
MLK Junior Room. I don't know if he if he's
you know, stated that publicly, but but you could put
all of that in and replicate and there's enough room,
I think, or enough square footage to almost replicate duplicate
if you will like a second oval office, and I
(03:34):
can have him, like, you know, hanging out right with
me throughout the entire presidency and we can have a
grand old time. How cool would that be?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Where's where is my office? Now that you've give him
mine away? Where is mine? Well?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
They have the White House Communications and Press Office, which
is tiny, and but you get the biggest room in
it right now. Caroline Levitt is in there. You know
the problems knock knock some wall? Want to do you
want to you want an OV hole put in there too? Listen,
I'm just saying, oh, you were acquiesce to Trump.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
You know, I mean it's Trump. You know you can't
beat Trump.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, so so you win that one, you're welcome.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
But if Trump says no, I've already done it twice.
I'm going to go back to private business into my thing,
then obviously the only next logical choice would be me.
And I think that that's wise.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
I think Press secretary would be a far better jobs
communications director, and.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I can do it all.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
The only question would be there would be an over
under of whether or not you would survive Anthony Scaramucci's record.
I boy have no issues with Anthony he's got his opinions,
they just differ the mine. And but he he didn't
exactly last the longest there, and he had one amazing
(04:53):
press conference of your recall, it was pretty awesome, and
you but you would, okay, And I'm just wondering if
you might have yourself, you know, fired faster than Anthony,
and you might set the record. That's possible.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I have a new idea. I'm going to be the
vice president, the communications director and the press secretary. So
since the CD and the press secretary answer to the
vice president the president, you know, my job is secure
and I'm just going to go out there and tell
it like it is, which I think would be refreshing.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Okay, well, you're not being offered any of that. Just
for the record, you have nominated.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I know, I got it.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
You have to be chosen.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
It's fine.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I am having to be right.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
The audience has spoken.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Audience has not spoken. We haven't put a poll up,
but I don't even think. I don't think I can
get twenty percent in a poll of yeah, Hannity should
really consider running. I don't think it would happen. And
usually I'm right on the polls. We had a poll
this week. I crushed you in that poll.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
You did in that poll, that is true, I did.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
It was like seventy plus percent. All right, let me
move on to the issues at hand. Here. We did
get some good news on the economy that I can
share with you now. Trump did sign and a couple
of things happen on the economy that have the wrong
pile in front of me during it. I hate when
I do that. Oh here it is. Jobless claims continue
(06:18):
to fall for the sixth straight week in a row.
I'd love you know why. I like that because I
believe in a meritocracy. I want Americans. I do believe
everybody was born with a purpose. I do believe the
worst thing that could happen to anybody in their life
is that they have nothing to do when they open
their eyes every day. And I have friends of mine
(06:40):
that have retired and have gone back to work because
they don't like retirement. I have other friends that love retirement,
but they do a bunch of things that they really
are passionate about and love, and all of them usually
have some business slash work component of their life. I
think the idea that you get up every day, I
think we're meant to serve other people in some capacity.
(07:02):
We're not kings and queen's on a throne. Now. On
the other hand, people have worked their entire lives. They
put in their forty to fifty years whatever it is
in their profession, thirty years, I don't know, and they
get their pension and they feel like they've done enough
work in their life. But I find most of the
people end up getting bored. I mean, you know, hitting
a little ball and chasing it all day, even though
(07:23):
if you're hitting it really good one day and then
lousy the next day, I mean, it takes a lot.
It takes a lot of time and effort to put.
People love hobbies and they love doing things that they
wish they could do and never have time to do.
But I love the idea that jobless claims. You know,
for the weekending July nineteenth fell by four thousand, and
(07:43):
you know that the Labor Department's report showed that the
four week average claims, which evens out some of the
weekly volatility, declined dramatically, and this is now the sixth
straight week in a row. I love that. One of
the funniest things that happened today is Democrats and then
had to delete a chart because it implicated them for
(08:05):
the inflation and it was it drew widespread mockery, like
your idea that I should run for you know office
over a since the leaded social media post showing how
the cost of groceries skyrocketed under Joe Biden, and then
it included a graph of soaring cheese, alcohol, dairy, grocery
(08:28):
produce meat prices dating back to October twenty nineteen, with
the major inflection point being near the start of the
Biden administration in twenty twenty one, and they wrote Trump's
America prices are higher today than they were on July
twenty fourth, all in major categories listed below. Read the
read the caption. Only problem is that was their that
(08:51):
was their time in office. They get the blame for that.
So this week has been a big week for trade deals,
with the President announcing the big deal with Japan that
was the biggest of all of them, and Vietnam is
done and Indonesia is done. The President off to Scotland,
is going to meet the Head of Scotland, the head
of Great Britain's Starmer is going to be there as well.
(09:13):
President also announcing that the Australia has agreed to accept
American beef. For a long time, even though we're great friends,
they actually banned our beef. Now we're going to sell
so much to Australia because it's undeniable, irrefutable proof that
US beef is the safest and best in the entire world.
(09:34):
The other countries that refuse our magnificent beef are unnotice.
All of our nation's ranchers, who are some of the
hardest working, most wonderful people, are smiling today, which means
I'm smiling too. Let's keep the hot streak going. It's
the golden age of America. But they did it for
an interesting reason. Remember mad Cow. They have some of
the strictest biosecurity laws in the entire world after mad
(09:58):
cow disease back in two thousand and in three. I mean,
I barely remember it. It's it's been that long. US
and Mexico did reach an agreement to fix a raw
sewage crisis in Tijuana, and apparently Mexico and the US
signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at fixing the sewage
crisis along our border in San Diego County. San Diego
(10:21):
is so beautiful. They have the Del Coronado, one of
the nicest hotels in America. Except there's only one person
I've met in my life that didn't like it. Only
one got a free trip there and they didn't like it.
The Trump You don't want to weigh in on that.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
No, I don't because I'm going to crush you.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
You're not going to crush me. You you you got
a big r.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
You sent me there when it was massive construction, and
there was construction.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I didn't know there was any construction at the hotel.
The Delcarnado is one of the most expensive and nicest
hotels in the entire country. And because you getting this award,
what was the award for? Again, I forget, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I couldn't hear myself think over the constant jackhammering next
to my room. I completely forgot about the award when.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Okay, what was what was the award for?
Speaker 2 (11:11):
The Greasy Award? It's like the Emmy for radio production.
It's the same thing.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Okay, So you get this big award and and then
I said, you know what, maybe I'll do something nice
for Linda. So I get plane.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I'm not coming to that because I'm not wearing any
penguin suit to come see you get some award, so
I'll send you, but.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
I don't go to anything. No, So what I did,
You know, you make it sound like I'm a jackass, when.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
What I like, I'm a jackass, And you know what
I know what I million construction workers.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Okay, what I ended up doing is I said, I
really want to do something nice, make this a very
special time. So I purchased first class plane tickets for
you and your entire family to fly to San Diego
and back round trip, put you up in the nicest
hotel in San Diego, the Del Coronado, which is not
a cheap hotel. So I think it was for a
(12:02):
full week vacation associated with it, And all I got
from you was whining and complaining bitterly. And then it
was one day I was scheduled off and I made
it a called an audible, which you're allowed to do
if it's your show. And then you had a fit
that I decided to work on a day when you
were supposed to be on vacation, not paying attention to work,
(12:24):
and then you blame me for the fact that there
was quote construction going on at the hotel, which I
had no knowledge of.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
So first, it wasn't a whole week. I never I
don't take a whole weeks unless you take a whole week,
and even then I don't have to. I can't take
a whole week because I want the guestos. Second of all,
the only reason I could do the three days was
because you were away, So I had a Friday and
I had a Monday, so I was able to fly, go,
have the weekend, and then be back in the office
on Monday.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
With your entire family to make it a very special
weekend for you. And all you did was wind, bitch,
moan and complain about wine incredible plane. Oh you rip
me to shreds over that. That's make news is.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Condemnation was because you decided to work, and I had
to work the whole time I was there, because.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
It believe it's going to buy a day without you.
How often do I guess when you don't complain, people
don't return your calls? What do I do? I pick
up the phone.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
There's people that don't return my calls, and I don't
want to call them anyway. You make me call them?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Oh, I make you making there. There's no making you
do anything. And then the.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Bottom line name on air.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
But and all I did was catch hell. So the
moral of the story is, never try to do something
nice for somebody who wins an award and send them
to one of the nicest hotels on a free vacation.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I will say the plane ride was very nice. I
enjoyed the plane ride. The pilots let Liam go into
the cockpit. That was fun.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Why did they let you go in the cockpit. That's dangerous.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
No, they little kids do that before the plane takes off.
They let them come in and see how the plane looks.
It's pretty cute.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
They gave Liam wings and all that stuff, right, all
that cute stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
It was nice.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
By the way, the president, I mean this, this is
pretty remarkable. You know that. You know people now out
there saying Hamas is not a terrorist organization? Who was
it that made the comment Linda about Hamas And there's
oh that's right, it was Who the heck was it
that did it? They's had Hamas, they recognize Hamas. I'm like,
(14:31):
you gotta be kidding me. And Hamas's charter they called
for the destruction of Israel. It is a terrorist organization.
You saw what happened on October the seventh. That's the
equivalent of forty thousand dead Americans in a single day.
But this is you know, the wret oh Franz of McCrone.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Yeah, yeah, but to that point, I thought you were
talking about a pundit. But to that point, Donald Trump
then commented quickly and swiftly and said, it's a good thing.
Nobody cares about French president and what he says doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Okay, So the President said Hamas appears to have a
death wish after they refuse to cut a hostage release deal,
prompting now Israel to consider alternative options. They pulled out
of Gaza, They pulled out in terms of negotiating, he
said in a press gagole today before his flight to Scotland.
He said, it's too bad Hamas didn't really want to
make a deal. I think they want to die, and
(15:24):
it's very bad, and it's gotten to the point where
you're going to have to finish the job. Let me
make a prediction. The same thing is going to happen
with Iran. The Iranians they're out there boldly talking about
rebuilding the nuclear program, the same thing is going to happen.
What the hell is wrong with Macron? Did you see
the lawsuit that the Macrones filed against Canda's Owens. Did
(15:47):
that not make you laugh? It just just cracked me up.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
It's just dumb. You're just drawing more attention to it.
So what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Uh? Yeah? I mean I honestly had never heard of
it before, and I know nothing about it. I'm not
getting involved in this, but I just thought it was
really You're the president of France, you don't have anything
better to do with your time. Let me add a
couple of things. The President did a few things today
that are worth noting. Today. One assigned an executive order
(16:17):
to make it easier to relocate addicted and mentally ill
homeless people that are living on the street. And it
directs the Attorney General, Pam Bondi, to reverse judicial precedence
and end consent to crees that limit jurisdictions and abilities
to relocate homeless people. And it redirects federal resources so
that affected homeless people are transferred to rehabilitation and substance
(16:41):
misuse facilities. And the whole purpose is is to make
it easier for local jurisdictions to remove homeless people from
the streets. These people usually have problems either many of
them have mental problems, you know, disturbances if you will,
and many have addiction. I never understood if if you're
(17:02):
a mile away from Nancy Pelosi's gated community where she
lives with very wealthy people in one direction, then on
the other side of a mile away is where her
offices are located, and in the middle is where people
are just shooting up and defecating in the streets and
urinating in the streets. And why didn't she ever once
(17:25):
get together with her rich friends and you know, build out,
you know, a facility where they can offer people, you know,
one or two males, three meals a day, and maybe
some mental health counseling. I think they could afford it
if they had the desire to. But it just reinforces
something I've said for a long time that liberals are
only generous with other people's money. Now back to the
(17:46):
big story of the week. We're going to do a deep,
deep dive into how corrupt this all is in terms
of the Russia Russia Russia hoax and the declassification and
the fact that the original senior intelligence officials. And this
is you know, like six weeks after the twenty sixteen election,
(18:08):
they made an assessment, an Intelligence Community Assessment an ICA,
and in that assessment they determined know that there was
no Trump Russia collusion. And Obama and Brennan and Clapper
and Komi and nobody else liked that assessment, so they
ordered another one, and against the strong opposition of the
(18:29):
people that actually put the real intelligence together, they turned
it on its head. They corrupted it, they polluted it,
and they turned it into the exact opposite of what
the real intelligence was showing us to deceive the country,
but more sinister in their what their desire was was
to destroy Donald Trump and his ability to govern as
(18:53):
a duly elected president. Now John Brennan, former CIA director,
has hired legal representation following this the classification, and the
report reveals Brennan insisted on including the unverified Hillary Clinton
bought and paid for disinformation dossier. I'll get into more
detail in a second about this. In the critical twenty
(19:15):
December twenty sixteen intelligent Assessment, despite opposition from all the
senior and these are career CIA rank and file CIA
senior officers, that argued it did not meet basic agency standards,
and the Steele dossier, which was paid for by the
Clinton campaign, contained unverified and by the way, by December
(19:37):
of that year, was completely debunked and Steele was shown
the door and sensational allegations about Trump, including you know,
the compromising activities with hookers and the rich Carlton and
Moscow and them urinating on Donald Trump. It was just
a croc from the beginning. They knew it, they didn't care,
and they purposely inserted it. Oh, President Trump just landed
(20:02):
in Scotland. We've got to try and he's answering questions.
Let's let's dip in and then we're going.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
To Aberdeen, which is the oil capital of Europe.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Actually, what is the kind of.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
What is missing in the UK deal that you have
to work out?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Nothing? We just I think it's more of a celebration.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Than look out.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
It's uh, it's a great deal for both.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
And we're going to have a meeting on other things
other than the deal.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
The deal is concluded. What's the comment, Well, that's what
he does.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
I mean, you know he uh, that's fine if he
does that, that's up to him. It's not up to me.
I'm with the United States, I'm not with France sat
very entire warning. I think it's terrible what with Hamas.
They tapped everybody along and we'll see what happens. We'll
see what response Israel has to that. But it's getting
(21:10):
to be that time.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
There's a fifty fifty chance of the deal. What is
left to work out? What are the final sticking points?
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
With the European Union, I think we have a good
fifty to fifty chance.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
That's a lot.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
What are the sticking points?
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Well, I don't want to tell you what the sticking
points are, but the sticking points are having to do
with maybe twenty different things. You don't want to listen
to all of them.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Yes, are you're going to have for a prime minister
about free spaces?
Speaker 4 (21:39):
Very important? People did well it is But I like
your prime minister who's slightly more liberal than I am,
as you probably heard, but he's a good man. He
got a trade deal done and you know they've been
working on this deal for twelve years.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
He got it done.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
It's a good deal. It's a good deal for the UK.
So no, I'll be seeing him tomorrow tomorrow evening. And
this is our wonderful ambassadors.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
You know he's doing a good job.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
Will be he's a very very successful man.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
He'll be doing a good job. The Royal than Ancient,
The Royal and Ancient says you're going to have to
bring infrastructure a term for to bring the open back.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
It's not something you got.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
The best course, the best course anywhere in the world
is Turnbury. The players all want to be a Turnbury.
Everybody wants to be a Turnberry. So we'll see how
that works out. The infrastructure needs to be oh, I
think well, the infrastructure and the course is good. In fact,
the Royal and Ancient, I don't know if you're aware
of this. They spent a lot of money, hundreds of
(22:42):
thousands of dollars or probably into the millions of dollars,
and they've laid all the wire for television and for
electricity under the holes of Turnbury, so that.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
The president in Scotland remember the scene and brave Hunt,
we've got to today what we've been doing all these years.
Read them anyway. So the Steele Dasse, bought and paid
for by Hillary Clinton's campaign, contained unverified sensational allegations it
was debunked completely by the time they were doing all this,
(23:16):
and John Brenham admitted that he voted for the communist
candidate in the nineteen seventy six presidential election. So you
know he's a radical, you know he you know, Trump
even acknowledged by the way earlier today the Barack Obama
committed he believes criminal acts, but probably benefits from the
Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity. It probably helps him
(23:37):
a lot, the immunity ruling, he said, but it doesn't
help the people around him at all. I'm not sure
if you can say it's official acts if you're purposely
trying to corrupt and pollute, what is real real classifications.
I don't know if you can say that. I don't
know if that falls under the category of presidential you know,
(24:02):
immunity or presidential acts. But with what they did here,
because the dossier was exploited to justify the Remember they
got the intelligence from senior intelligence officials, and what they
found is they engineered the false, false intelligence because they
didn't like the real intelligence. The real intelligence said there
was no Trump Russia collusion. The only Russia collusion was
(24:24):
Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for dirty information dossier. But anyway,
the documents now show that a December eight, twenty sixteen,
draft of the Presidential Daily Briefing debunked the notion of
Russian electoral meddling to help Trump. The problem was the problem,
and that was problematic because it didn't conform to the
(24:46):
preferred narrative of Trump Russia collusion. And the FBI director
and his cohorts they cut hold it away. One thing
nobody's picked up on, and why James Comy should be
very nervous. He was warned not to use that dossier
in his first visa application. Well that was in October
of twenty sixteen. He signed the first three of them.
(25:08):
By this time they know that it's phony anyway, So
both him and Brennan and others, you know, they insisted,
they ignored the experts, They ignored, you know, this this
false narrative. They ignored the warnings about the dirty dossier
not being consistent with any standard, and then by January sixth,
(25:30):
they rushed to completion this intelligence report. It was produced
a new ica, and it was, you know, the exact
opposite of what career professionals and senior professionals in the
CIA and elsewhere an intelligence community put together. You know,
they rushed that out and offered a remarkable transformation, you know,
(25:54):
in the head spinning about face by the intel conclusions.
They did it against you know, very very vigorous opposition
within the CIA not to do this. And anyway, Brennan
denied numerous delusions that the fake dossier was placed in
the formal intelligence assessment, and in fact, it was put
(26:17):
in there and Camy that met with Trump later that
day in a devious but misbegotten scheme to entrap him.
It failed miserably because the newly elected president had no
idea what the FBI director was even talking about. But
Obama was the one, according to all these memos and reports,
that it instigated the entire thing, and they all lied
(26:39):
repeatedly about this contrived narrative and that this was all

CIA headquarters. That report outlined in detail the events that

cinder blocks on the scale of an election.
