Speaker 1 (00:00):
The best of Sean Hennedy is on.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Now, Well we have come in your city.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
One may I get Tom and saying you a comfort. Well,
I'll be desire.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
And if you want a little banging a yin, I
come along.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Who's leaving the Democratic Party?
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I'm just curious.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
There are lots of leaders.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
I'm not going to go through names because then I'm
gonna leave somebody out and then I'm gonna hear about it.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Nancy, I might have to read that we're here to
talk about the sixtieth anniversary of Medicaid. That's what I
agreed to come to talk.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Yeah, I wish I could say save for the executive branch,
because he's doing his best to dismount the Constitution.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I'm being deadly earnest man.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Freedom is back in the style. Welcome to the Revolution.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
To your site, going the way out against Alas and
saying you a conscious soil.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Sean Hennity Show, More me I'm the scenes, information on
freaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Thanks Scott chan An Hour two Sean Hannity Show, toll free.
It's eight hundred and nine to four one Sean. If
you want to be a part of the program. One
of the things that I've always wanted conservatism to represent
is I want conservatives or conservatism to be looking out
for working men and women. And that's why I think
(01:43):
it is so phenomenally important and frankly an opportunity we've
never seen in our lifetime. What is being put in
place for working men and women and opportunities for them
to achieve the American dream. Maybe maybe maybe it's because
of how I grew up. Maybe it's because my grandparents,
(02:03):
all four of them, came from Ireland and they were
dirt poor. Maybe it's because my parents both grew up
very poor. Maybe it's because my valedictorian and high school
mother couldn't go to college and became a prison guard
and worked sixteen hour shifts pretty much her entire adult
life until she died at a relatively young age. Or
my father that worked as a family corp probation officer
(02:27):
and fought in World War Two, lost his mother when
he was born from complications for his birth, and then
worked as a waiter on weekends. Maybe maybe it comes
from that, or my own working roots, which started at
eight with a paper out twelve years old. Every Friday
Saturday Sunday night washing dishes, then becoming a cook and
a bus boy, waiter, bartender, and ten years in construction.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
But I really care about working men and women.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
I view them as the backrup bone of this country.
I mean, we're very proud of the fact that we
have so many, so many truckers that call this program.
They're they're out on the roads every day. Every single
store you go to, the store shoves would be empty
but for their contribution to the supply chain. Every you
know go I love going shopping. I don't know why.
(03:16):
When I go shopping, people always stop and ask me
why are you here? And I look at them, look
at me.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I like to eat. We all like to eat.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
But I like to go shopping, and I actually it's
it's a great barometer because I get to talk to people.
But you think of the every single person that serves
us in our lives, the farmers that do the farming,
and we have such a small percentage of our population
that feeds the entire country and frankly feeding half the
(03:43):
world than are ranchers. They do a great job producing
the meat that we all like to eat. And I
just like where we're headed economically. I like the fact
that you know, thirteen to fifteen trillion dollars in committed
manufacturing money Donald Trump has been able to secure after
(04:05):
beating widely panned for his tariff trade negotiations, and everybody
predicting doom and gloom, and none of which happened, none
of which happened. Just the opposite happened. We have trade
deal after trade deal after trade deal after trade deal,
and after we've been taken advantage of and abused frankly
(04:26):
and ripped off frankly. You know, now the president's fighting
for farmers and fighting for everybody in between. But you
know that twelve fifteen trillion dollars, whatever the money is
in committed investments in manufacturing, well that that's going to be.
We're going to make our own pharmaceuticals. We've been far
too dependent on other countries for that. God forbid, we
have some type of COVID like emergency again in our lives.
(04:50):
It's also good we're producing our own rare earth minerals
and magnets, which are going to be very critical. It's
critical to manufacturing, it's critical for our pentagon on its
critical for national security and national defense. Same with semiconductor chips.
We're bringing automobile manufacturing back to fifteen trillion dollars. What
does that mean to all of you? It means high
(05:12):
paying career jobs in industries that we've pretty much given
up on, and we're bringing all these jobs home. And
then we cannot even begin to calculate how many high
paying career jobs will be created in the energy sector anyway,
how deep, how profound is this and how is it
going to impact your life?
Speaker 3 (05:32):
Anyway?
Speaker 4 (05:33):
We invited on US State Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke
Rollins's with us. One of the things that nobody really
took note of. And we'll get to the European Union
trade deal in a second. My understanding is Australia now
has agreed to take American beef, which is great for
American ranchers, and they had not imported American beef since
(05:55):
mad Cow, which was what in what year two thousand
and three?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
That's right, got twenty years ago?
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Crazy?
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Right, That's insane, And that every single one of these
deals the President is thinking about American agriculture, American beef,
American products made in America, American manufacturers give us some
of the details and specificity on how this is going
to impact really the people that do make the country great,
(06:25):
the people that work hard every day.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Well, that's right, Sean, and I love the intro on that.
I couldn't agree with you more. I think when President
Trump came down that escalator almost ten years ago and
began to talk about returning power to the people, draining
the swamp, and ensuring that we are putting America first,
I don't know that really many of us who'd been
(06:48):
working in this world for a long time really understood
how to execute that, really understood that what he brought
to the table was a game changer. What he brought
to the table was frankly, saving the America and dream
in the American experiment. And that's what he's doing, and
that's what he's done. And having been his first White
House as his Domestic policy chief, building the American First
(07:09):
Policy Institute and the intervening four years and now serving
as his Secretary of Agriculture, I've really had a front
row seat to almost the entire journey, and I will
tell you firsthand that it is truly revolutionary. I think
what his leadership has brought and what he is doing
to your point, for the real average American man and woman,
(07:32):
and to take that American dream into every corner of
this beautiful country. And that's what he's done. So on
the ag side, you know, he called me about being
a Secretary of Agriculture. I'll never forget. It was a
Saturday morning, right before Thanksgiving. I was on my way
to an Aggie Auburn football game and got the news
that he wanted me for this slot. And I was
(07:52):
so excited to fight for our farmers, to make sure
agriculture gets a seat at the table and continues to
drive the narrative of What I didn't realize Sean at
the time was I had obviously always supported his we
need to realign the world economy, we need to renegotiate
the trade deals. What I didn't realize on November twenty
third of last year before I took this job was
(08:14):
just at how extraordinary a disadvantage our farmers and ranchers
and our products have on the world stage. Leading up
to Trump term too, the average tariff across the world
on American products, American ag products is about fifteen percent.
What we charge agriculture products coming into America is only
on average five percent. The men and women who are
(08:38):
most hurt by that are those that feed and fuel
and clothe the nation and frankly the world. So as
he has rolled out when after when the UK, the EU,
South Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam. I mean, it's
one win after another, but I sincerely believe well, the
American people obviously are the most have the most to
(09:00):
gain from his leadership and his bold vision. But our
farmers and ranchers are the ones who will ultimately be
able to build a life that they have been We've
been losing our farmers and ranchers for so long, but
that changed on the President's Liberation Day. It really changed
when it came down the escalator ten years ago. But
then when we really began to fight, which was Liberation
(09:21):
Day February in the Rose Garden of this year, and
now we're beginning to see the results of that. It's
going to change the trajectory of the country forever.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Let me juxtapose this with another argument and another initiative
that the President is involved in, and that's the Maha movement.
And one of the arguments that have been made is
that maybe America has historically used too many pesticides and hormones.
But we're making a lot of changes in that in
(09:52):
that area as well, are we not and at least
giving people choices right?
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Absolutely well, And it's funny you bring that up. I
don't know that on our slate to discuss Bobby Kennedy
and I are doing another press conference together announcing another
six states that have submitted and I have approved waivers
to stop using taxpayer dollars in our food stamp program
to buy sugary drinks and junk food to feed ourselves.
When you've got a chronic health epidemic in this country
(10:18):
where three out of four of our adolescents can't even
pass the military readiness test, like this is not just
about breaking our healthcare system, it's not just about eating healthy.
It's now a national security issue. So Bobby's leadership has
been extraordinary. We don't agree on everything, but we agree
on most things. And to your point, he has said
(10:39):
over and over, my job is to help make America
healthy again. But we can't do that without our farmers,
and we have to protect our farmers. So moving in
the direction of healthier food, ensuring that our food processors etc.
Aren't using all the stuff they've been using forever, but
doing it in a way that supports our farmers, ensure
(11:00):
ensuring that they actually can make money, can support their family,
can turn it over to their children and their grandchildren.
I think Bobby is a great partner in all of that,
and really he's talking about changing the game. I mean,
the President is the lead game changer, but Bobby Kennedy
is right behind, and he's been very open and very
willing to learn about our crop protection systems, about how
(11:22):
important fertilizer is to feeding the world, but how we
can potentially begin to move toward healthy alternatives that will
be good for the farmers and hopefully even make them
more profitable in the future.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
There's got to be a balance to all of this,
because you're right, I mean, we have what percentage of
farmers and what percentage of the world do we actually feed?
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Well, that's right. I mean, listen, I'm sitting in front
of my USBA building right now in Washington talking to you.
I'll go in in just a minute. This US Department
of Agriculture, founded by Abraham Lincoln in eighteen sixty two,
is the people's department at that point in America, I
think you had almost eighty percent of the country involved
in the agrarian and the agriculture industry. Today it's closer
(12:05):
to five percent. So part of what we're doing at
USDA is ensuring that all Americans understand how important this is,
but also that we're opening the aperture. We're opening the
market to new farmers. We're ensuring that rural America has
the opportunity to thrive, that the American dream can live
there as well. And just a few weeks ago, in
front of USDA, with Pete Hegseth and Pam Bondi and
(12:28):
Christy Nome and some of our great governors, I announced
that farm security is national security. Unless we can feed
and clothe ourselves, America will no longer be the world superpower.
That's how important this is, and that's what we're working
to change and to build the infrastructure not just for
the next two or four ten years, but for the
next two hundred and fifty years for this country.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Quick break right back.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
We'll continue more with Agricultural Secretary Brook Rawlins on the
other side than your calls coming up on those Monday
eight hundred and nine to four one Sean, if you
want to be a part of the program.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
The Dems want to stand on the step singing terrible
songs and cursing out Trump.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
You know you have one guy over this shout and
ever wonder if.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
These people ever go to work?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Me too brought out. This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
All right, We continue now with Agricultural Secretary Brook Rawlins's
with us.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Let me ask this question because.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
When there was resistance or questions that were brought up
with with other countries during these trade deals, and I
have had conversations with Howard Lucknick and Scott Vessant, and
the issues came up about American food and how it's produced,
et cetera, et cetera. At the end of the day,
(14:08):
I think almost every country opened the door to American
farmers and dairy and our ranchers and our meat and
so on, and our poultry, et cetera. What were some
of their concerns or were they really kind of irrelevant
and overblown and they were just used it as an
(14:28):
excuse to keep American products out of their markets.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Well, I love the question, and let me answer it
with an anecdote. I went over to the UK within
forty eight hours of the first big deal being announced,
which as you know, was the United Kingdom and their
press over there. You know, we don't love our mainstream
media here, but theirs over there may even be slightly worse,
which is saying a lot. And they had warned me,
(14:52):
they said, Brook, when you go in and do all
the press gaggles, just be ready for the onslaught and
the attacks you're going to get. And so or enough,
you know, I have the first press gaggle in London.
I just met at ten Downing talking to my counterparts,
the Secretary of Agriculture of the UK, how we can
continue to ship our beef and ethanol and pork, et
cetera into the UK. And the first question, well, but
(15:15):
you know your chicken is all chlorinated and we don't
want your chicken here in the UK. And I said, listen,
only five percent of our total faull tree production is
using any kind of chlorinated water for disinfectant. So and
even then that has been proven safe and reliable over
and over and over again. So this narrative a that
(15:38):
you all are feeding your people in the United Kingdom
just couldn't be more false. And it has to stop.
And so at the end of the day, what America
does do. We have the most rigorous, the strongest regulatory
systems in the world to keep our people safe and
make sure our food is safe. So, for example, we
started the conversation on our beef in Australia. You know,
(15:59):
from than twenty years Australia has said no thanks to
American beef, which is the best, the tastiest, the most
impressive beef produced in the entire world. Well, it took
Donald Trump to come in and say, listen, your non
tariff barriers, you're fake news that you've been using to
keep our American beef out of your country. That's not
going to stand any longer. I am the President of
(16:20):
the United States. I know how to negotiate deals. I'm
going to change this. And sure enough they changed it,
and now we're shipping American beef again into Australia. Now again,
does that mean we can't do things better here? Of course,
it means we can do things better. But to even
begin to say that our beef, our poultry, are wheat,
our soy beans, our corn, our tree nuts, our blueberries,
(16:42):
that they aren't safe, that they aren't good quality, food
the best, arguably in the world is just false. And
that's a big narrative that I'm pushing back against too.
As I'm traveling internationally to all these countries.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I think it's great. I'm very happy. It's very cool.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
When we got truckers that call this program we have ranus,
they call this program farmers. I've had people on tractors
calling this program and I just know, and I'm grateful
because I know how hard they work, and I know
that our store shows would be empty without each piece
of that supply chain. So and we make the best
products in the world. And I'm pretty much a meat
(17:21):
and egg guy.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
That's about my whole diet. We appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
Brooke Rawlins, Agriculture Secretary, thank you so much for being
with us, Sean.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
It's an honor. God bless you. Thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Eight hundred and nine foot one, Seawan.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
If you want to be a part of the program
and you're listening to the best of the Sean Hannity Show,
we'll have more of your favorite guest topics and memorable moments.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
That's all coming up.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
You are listening to the best of the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Hannity uncovers the real truth about the politics of DC.
He's your watchdog, one big brother. Every day Hannity is
on right now.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Always a privilege and a pleasure to invite a friend
of ours back to the program. South Carolina Senator Tim
Scott is with us. By the way, he's got a
new book out. It's going to be in bookstores as
of tomorrow. You can get it on Amazon dot com
or putting a link up on Hannity dot com. I
just got my copy. It's a great book. You'll love it.
One Nation always under God, our profile and Christian courage.
(18:40):
Senator Scott, how are you, my friend?
Speaker 7 (18:43):
Well? Shout um, doing really well. Thank you so much.
And let me just say thank God. You vacation sometimes
in South Carolina because many folks see you out on
the golf course or walking around and they say that
you are humble, that you are approachable, and they just
can't believe it. So thank you for the way you
represent conservative values in my home state.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
I listen.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
I was born and raised in New York, but I left.
I was like a radio nomad for many, many years
of my life, and I'm definitely a Southerner of my
heart heart. Now, now I'm totally a Southerner because I
live in the Free State of Florida, but I realized,
you know what, this is more in keeping with my values.
I don't know if we should tell this story or not.
And I'll let you clean it up because I'm sure
(19:28):
that I'm not going to tell it as well as
you would.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
But you go to a church.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
It's in Mount Pleasant in South Carolina called Seacoast, right.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Yes, so what's that?
Speaker 7 (19:43):
Twenty eight years in County Okay.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
And and I've been to that church on a number
of occasions when i've been there, and it's a great, great,
great church. And I knew you were there, and I
met you there one time and I said hello to you,
and I got to actually go out the dinner with
you and the pastor and your mom, and man, your
mom's a force of nature lover, she's awesome. And and
(20:08):
but it started out with one day, I'm listening to
one of the pastors.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna call them out my name,
and he.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Starts saying and turn off your TV and all these
all these people on TV giving their opinions and they're
only doing it for one reason money. I was so
pissed off. I was so angry, and I wrote you
and then it ended up and it developed into a
friendship with the pastor.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
I'm like, no, I don't give opinions for money.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
I give opinions because their heartfelt and sincere and I
believe them. And when I started in radio, I worked
for free, and then my first paid job was nineteen
thousand dollars a year, and I never thought I'd be successful.
And I think one day somebody's gonna wake up and
pull me off both the radio and TV anyway.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
You know, one of the things I'll say, Seana, that
was such a good lesson for all churches, specifically for
my church, to use generalization with talk by any group
of people or any one. It's just not the way
you should do it. Matthew seven. One reminds us to
be careful how we judge because it will be measured
against you as well. And what you did, though, showed
(21:12):
what I talked about at the beginning of the show,
your humility. You were willing to listen to the pastor
who wanted to make sure that we mended the fences
by telling the truth, and he was not targeting you.
But anytime you have a broad brush that captures a
lot of people, it's not the way to minister. And
you were kind enough to listen to him, sit down,
(21:35):
break bread, and frankly, I think you've been back since
then because you understand that Seacoast why.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
I actually watched Sea Coast this weekend. I thought it
was a great sermon this weekend. I think it's a
great church. They have great music, they have a great message,
they have a great outreach program. They do a lot
for the community. They built their wonderful people. I don't
agree with everything of anybody in any church, but I've
(22:01):
come to greatly admire the ministry.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
That they have there.
Speaker 7 (22:06):
I've been there for twenty almost twenty eight years, and
I'll say, without any question of founding pastor Greg Surat,
who had lunch with you and Josh suratsa lead pastor,
really listen to you. I'll tell you what. Sometimes the
hardest thing to do in life is to take constructive criticism.
We call it a critique, but it's so important to
take it from the people that come to your church
(22:26):
so that you can get better. And that's one of
the reasons why when I wrote the book about courage
profiles and Christian courage, A part of it is looking
in the mirror and taking responsibility for what you do.
And you allowed my church to not use this broad
brush about people on TV wanting to do something for
(22:46):
a paycheck. But in fact, anyone who knows Sean Hannity,
anyone who's watched your show, anyone who's listened to you
on the radio. But one thing we all conclude. You
do your homework. You don't come out and spout on
crazy things. You stew your homework. And frankly, let me
give you one example for your listeners, because it is
so important to drill down into this message of open
(23:08):
opportunity with the truth, because the truth will set you free.
You were years ahead on the Russia collusion craziness and crap.
You called for what it was. It was a disinformation campaign,
and it took over eight years for the information and frankly,
the evidence, the facts the bubble up as they have
(23:30):
been under Tulci Gabbert. We now know you were right.
The homework you did was reinforced by the investigations and frankly,
the information that Obama had, that Biden had but they
refused to let it go because that's the actual corruption.
The swamp. The bottom of the swamp is this. I
(23:54):
don't think the American people can make decisions for themselves.
So we're gonna lie, we're gonna cheat, and we're gonna
see the American people. You knew it, you could smell it,
and then you did the homework and you uncovered the
truth years before all the evidence percolated to the top.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
You know, it was us in an ensemble cast. I
can't take all the credit for it, but we did
work very hard on it.
Speaker 7 (24:18):
You know.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
There was an interesting piece on Fox News this weekend
and the headline was Trump one point zero alums share
chilling Google message from before their second term return. And
I talked about people like Dan Scabino and others, and
they described the matter as Biden law fair kicking in
and anyway, Google received and responded to a legal process
(24:42):
by the FBI compelling the release of their personal information.
So I've been through this now twice in my life, Senator,
where my personal private text messages and at the time
emails I have not had an email account in years
and years and years were released publicly and it was
Big News all over it was everywhere. It was fake news, CNN,
(25:05):
We're going wall to wall. Hannity's messages just released with
Paul Maniford, Hannity's messages with Kaylee MC and any Mark
Meadows or released. And what's so amazing about this is,
you know what their main criticism on criticism MSDNC, Fake New,
CNN and all these other channels and impress is they
(25:26):
would read my text messages and they're like, wow, it
sounds like his monologues on TV. Man, he really believes
this stuff. That was their main criticism. And I'm like, well,
does that imply you don't believe what you say? Because
I couldn't believe that that was their main criticism.
Speaker 7 (25:45):
What amazing journalism and journalistic integrity that we are yearning
for in this country. Once again, I stand where I
still at the beginning of this show. You have been
a true patriot, and I don't say that. Look, you
and our friends when we're not on TV, when we're
not on the radio, we talk about we've done a
Bible study together. So let me just say it very clearly.
(26:06):
You are a man of integrity and one of the
most important uncovering of absolute governmental democracy at its worse,
political scandals at the highest levels, perhaps one of the
greatest cover ups in American history, Russia collusion, and you
got it right. And I just think, what do you.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Think is going to happen with all of this? Because
I hate to overpromise and underdeliver, and there's been too
many times where we get very very close and people
think that people are going to be held accountable and
then not held accountable. I think the evidence here is overwhelming.
It's incontrovertible. They made the whole thing up. I think
everything they've done to Donald Trump for ten years is balls.
(26:51):
Under this umbrella, people have abused their power at these
three letter agencies. I think they've put they've put cinderblocks
on the scales of elections.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
What happens, we have.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
To hold them accountable. This is one of the reasons
why I'm excited to see the leadership of Senator Chuck Grassley.
Here's a man who's been through the grinder and he
is always playing it straight. This is not a political animal,
nor is he a political guy. He calls balls and strikes,
and one of the things he has said very clearly,
(27:25):
and he said it with disgust in his voice. This
political weaponization has caused critical damage to our institutions, and
this is one of the greatest political scandals of our time.
And the new administration has a tremendous responsibility, tremendous responsibility
to the American people to fix the damage done and
(27:47):
to do so with maximum speed and transparency. I will
add to that, you've got to hold the people accountable
or no one will trust this government as they should
because they shouldn't trust the government they can't have confidence in.
And when you were involved in election engineering, that's exactly
(28:09):
what it was. When you're putting cinderblock after cinderblock after
cinder block on the scale, and you have the memo
that says Hillary Clinton approved, she approved, and she followed
the advisor of her foreign policy advisors like Julianne Smith
to smear Donald Trump by magnifying a scandal that wasn't real.
(28:34):
It's that kind of nonsense that speaks to the depth
of people committed to power, not American progress, but power.
So if we don't hold them accountable, the people will
not trust us. We have a responsibility to bring all
the information into light, trace it back to its source,
(28:55):
and then hold accountable the source of election engineer, because
that is the most disgusting thing in the last thirty
years of political history and one of the worst in
American history, according to.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
A Grass all right, quick break more with Senator Tim Scott,
South Carolina, brand new book out today, One Nation, Always

dot com, bookstores around the country. Will continue and then
your calls coming up eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean,

Speaker 6 (29:27):
Continue exposing, uncovering, untracking the lies of the left every day.
This is the Sean Hennity Show.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
I would continue with our friend South Carolina Senator Tim Scott.
He's got a new book out today, One Nation, Always
under God, profiles in Christian Courage, Amazon dot com, Hannity
dot com, bookstores around the country.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Let me go back to your book.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
You chose certain people to focus on in this book
and inspiring stories of American Christians and what they did
and what they were able to accomplish. Abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison,
for example, he faced an angry mob that were trying
to destroy him in his newspaper. You talk about Apollo
thirteen astronaut Jim Lovell, whose faith sustained him while up
(30:40):
in space, or Darthea Dix, who revolutionized how America dealt
with mental health, and many others.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
How did you?
Speaker 4 (30:49):
And these are not people that are often well known
or often written about. What made you choose these people
in particular in this book?
Speaker 5 (30:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (30:58):
So, One of the things I wanted to make or
the readers took away from this book is that the
Good Lord so often uses ordinary people, not the Ivy
league educated, not the power brokers of the day. He
so often uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. Think
about your background, Sean he you have not always been
(31:21):
on radio and TV. You were a blue collar guy.
The Good Lord gave you a gift that had to
be uncovered. And my hope is that the future of
this nation depends on ordinary people having the courage to
respond to the call of an extraordinary God to make
sure that every single institution in our country is completely
(31:46):
covered by faith, from our journalists to our astronauts, to
retail folks like Hobby Lobby. The story of David Green,
powerful story. Think about in healthcare, the story of Danny
and Saint Jude's Hospital, how it came to be a
praying Catholic. We need to understand that every single institution
(32:09):
in this country, when it worked right, it worked upon
the foundation of a Judeo Christian rock in ethos that
led people to do the right thing. And that's one
of the reasons why I started this show off by
celebrating your praises when you were just walking on the
streets of Charleston. How you uncover the Russia crap, the
(32:32):
collusion that was nothing but the election engineering of the left,
And why it is that we can celebrate integrity and character.
I'll finish with this shot. Too often in the day's
time that we list people want to celebrate the wrong
people doing the wrong things, and instead my book One
(32:54):
Nation Always under God, available right now at Amazon or
where books are sold, to celebrate people, true patriots and
warriors who changed their institutions within this country for good
because they had the courage to stand for the rising,
just like you did with this Russia collusion nonsense. We
(33:14):
need more Americans standing in the gap when it counts
the most, and when we do that, our greatest days
are absolutely ahead of us.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
This book is phenomenal. It's One Nation Always under God
profile in Christian courage, Amazon dot com, Hannity dot com,
bookstores around the country. Senator Tim Scott, South Carolina, we
always appreciate you being with us.
