This explosive episode dives into the declassified revelations surrounding the Russia collusion hoax, with guests Tulsi Gabbard, Sean Davis (The Federalist), and commentary from Hannity himself. They expose how Obama-era officials—particularly CIA Director John Brennan—allegedly manipulated intelligence to build a false narrative against Donald Trump. Discussion centers on burn bags of classified documents, lies to Congress, and what’s described as the largest political scandal in U.S. history. Later, Hannity is joined by Bill Cunningham to unpack the moral and civic decay in Cincinnati, connecting it to broader trends in Democrat-run cities.

And if you want a little banging and Yan Yank come.

Woof, woof.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
The Democratic Party is breaking records in the way, Jessica, Dean,
you don't want to break records.
Speaker 5 (00:38):
To be honest with you, the country is moving towards Trump.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
These polls that come out and show him not doing well,
I don't.
Speaker 6 (00:44):
I don't buy that, Mom, Donnie. In many ways at
the future, he knew how to campaign. He's doing everything right.
Speaker 7 (00:48):
There's a lot to learn from him.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I think that what he's been able to do is
something that our party ought to learn from.

Information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Stay right here for our final news round up and
information Overload.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
All right, News Roundup and Information Overload. Our eight hundred
and nine four one, Shawn Urt number if you want
to be a part of the program.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
So we have new developments today.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
If you go back to the declassification by Tulci Gabbard,
let's remind you of what she said when she announced
she was making this declassification some of the things that
she found, uh like, for example, then CIA Director John
Brennan over ruling CIA officers who dared to challenge the
(01:56):
Russiagate narrative. Remember the original and intelligence assessment report that
was put out was one that said that Donald Trump
never colluded with Russia and there was no evidence of such.
And this is weeks and weeks after the twenty sixteen election.
Here's what she said.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
The Intelligence Committee's oversight report reveals that CIA Director Brennan
overruled senior CIA officers who challenged the Obama ordered intelligence assessment,
stating quote, we don't have direct information that Putin wanted
to get Trump elected. Yet the Obama directed assessment was
published on January sixth, twenty seventeen, which explicitly stated, quote,
(02:36):
we assess Putin and the Russian government aspired to help
President elect Trump's election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary
Clinton and publicly contrasting her unfavorably to him, end of quote.
With regards to the Seal dossier, we now know that
one of the source documents that the Obama administration used
in the creation of this intelligence assessment in January of
(02:58):
twenty seventeen was none other than the discredited, unverified Steele dossier.
The House Intel report states, quote, contradicting public claims by
then CIA Director Brennan that the dossier was not in
any way incorporated into this intelligence assessment. The dossier was
referenced in the intelligence assessment's main body text and further
(03:19):
detailed in a two page assessment annex. John Brennan lied,
and he denied using this dossier in this intelligence assessment
that President Obama ordered because he knew it was discredited.
It was a politically motivated, manufactured document. He directed senior
CIA officials to use it anyway.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
They knew by December twenty sixteen. That's why they got
rid of Christopher Steele. At the time, they knew it
was discredited. They were even warned about it as early
as August of twenty sixteen. Bruce Or warned James, call
me not to trust the document that it was political
in nature and this was the Hillary Clinton bought in
(04:00):
Russian disinformation dossier. And anyway, it was not only discredited
and unverified, it has since been totally completely debunked. It
was debunked by December of twenty sixteen. And then it
raises questions about call me, because it was the bulk
of information also used for not one, not two, not three,
(04:21):
but four phiz applications, three of which called Me personally
signed on to himself even well after the point, designing
at least two of them, knowing completely that it was
discredited by law. Once he knows that information presented to
a PHIZA court ends up being false, at that point
he has an obligation to go back to the phiz
A court and said, no, we made a mistake. And
(04:43):
we have this big story breaking earlier today that cash
Patel has turned over documents to the Senate Judiciary Committee
Chairman Chuck Grassley, which apparently he found a trove of
sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump Russia
p that were buried in multiple quote burn bags in
a secret room inside the FBI. Sources now telling Fox
(05:07):
News Digital that the burn bag system is used to
destroy documents designated as classified or higher. And anyway, the
multiple burn bags were found filled with thousands of documents,
and sources now saying that one of the documents the
FBI officials found in the burn bag was the classified
annex to the former Special Council John Durham's final report,
(05:31):
which includes the underlying intelligence that he reviewed, and the
declassification of the classified annex is being done in close
coordination with John Ratcliffe, the CIA director, Cash Battel, the
FBI director and the Director of National Intelligence Tulcy Gabbart,
and the Attorney General Pam Bondi according to people. But anyway,
(05:51):
this will be transmitted now to the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman.
And then this goes to the broader investigation opened by
Cash Battel's FBI into what is a grand conspiracy to
put cinder blocks on the scales of elections, which it appears,
based on everything we've been reporting now for years, absolutely
positively have happened. Sean Davis with the Federalist is going
(06:18):
to join us in just a second. Here is the
CEO and founder of the Federalist and he put up
a post to pointed out that there are five to
ten people that have been deeply involved in reporting on
the Russia collusion hopes from the very beginning back in
early twenty seventeen, he points out rightly, so he's one
of them, also others, and that they've been doing this
(06:40):
for eight years. Well, we've been doing it on this
show and been doing it on Hannity, and we've had
Sean Davis on various times about all of this, discussing
it with our ensemble cast. But the blockbuster revelations he
points out from last week about the fraudulent intelligence community
assessment is not all news, and it's not and anyone
(07:03):
saying that there's nothing new in the recent declassifications flat
out lying and it's not a nothing burger. These are
called smoking guns in the industry anyway, Sean Davis joins us, Now, sir,
how are you.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
I'm doing well?
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Thank you for having me.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Well, we were on similar parallel pass at the time,
and I know that people like you and others were
doing your work. We had you on numerous times to
talk about this and other issues. But what you're pointing
out in your post top Obama officials in their corrupt
media stenographers repeatedly lied when they claim that the bogus
(07:41):
Steele dossier, which was paid for by Hillary Clinton and
the DNC, was never referenced in the body of this
intelligence assessment. Now, Pulsey Gabbard made that very bold statement
based on the declassification announcement that she made, and she
made it clearly. And fake News CNN, which went well
to wall with this phony Russia collusion hoax all those years,
(08:04):
even cut away from the press conference because it totally
discredited what they had been reporting for the longest period
of times time, but more specifically that three year period.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
Right, And this was a major blockbuster because there were
always two big pillars that were erected in service of
the Russia collusion hopes. The second one was this idea
that Trump colluded with putin steal the election from Hillary.
That's what the steal dossier was all about. But none
of that would have been possible rhetorically without the first pillar,
(08:39):
which was the allegation that Russia interfered in the election
in twenty sixteen for the purpose of electing Donald Trump
in defeating Hillary Clinton. That really was the foundation of everything,
and what we've learned in the last week from Gabbard
and Ratcliffe. God blessed them for finding this information and
getting it out there. We found that that first pillar
(09:00):
idea that Russia was interfering to help Trump win, that
was a lie, that they knew it was a lie,
that they never had any intel to support it, and
that they even used the Steel do Fier contradictory to
John Brennan's sworn congressional testimony. They even used the Steele
Dotier to support this lie that Putin wanted Trump to win.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
You can start on a basic level, because lying to
Congress under oath is a crime, and that would then
therefore implicate a number of top people. I would assume
Brennan and Clapper and call me and we could just
start there.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Is that correct?
Speaker 7 (09:33):
Is that is correct? But there's also a five year
statute of limitations if you're looking at perjury or false statements.
Brennan's came within the last couple of years. I think
he told Congress this particular falsehood as recently as twenty
twenty three. So if you're just looking at perp well,
some of.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Them love it were in twenty twenty and I believe
that they can get this going and extend the Statute
of Limitations. Is my understanding for those three in particular.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Well, I think they may be able to I think
the better case for tolling the Statute of Limitations is
to not look at singular false statements to Congress as
the basis for all criminal charges. It's to look at
everything that was done since twenty seventeen is as part
of a massive fraudulent conspiracy against the American people and
(10:22):
against the government of the United States, and each new
false state that they make today or tomorrow or a
week from now is an overt act in furtherance of
that conspiracy, which starts that Statute of limitations clock.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Overall, again, that's all true, which is part of the
reason why I'm looking at the broader investigation of Cash Fattel. Now,
from my advantage point, everything that we know about twenty
sixteen and seventeen, and how the original intelligence assessment that
came from rank and file career rank and files senior
(11:00):
intel officials, they concluded something that was very clear that
there was no Trump Russia collusion. Well, it turns out
that Barack Obama, according to the declassification and others, did
not like that assessment, and then they went about the
business of redoing it and creating a false narrative based
(11:21):
in part on a debunct dossier that Hillary Clinton had
bought and paid for that they were warned about, you know,
early in the campaign, Brennan himself warning Obama and that
it was also used for not one but four fi's application.
So I would argue that that's part of the grand conspiracy,
and that is to undermine a duly elected president. Then
I would argue that it continues through twenty twenty, because
(11:44):
we know that they verified the authenticity of Hunter Biden's laptop.
The FBI did in March of twenty twenty, and then
they systematically went about meeting on a weekly basis with
all these big tech companies and warning them that they
may be victims of a Russia hoax and disinformation campaign.
(12:04):
And they also knew at the time that Rudy Giuliani's attorney,
Bob Costello, had a copy of Hunter's very real laptop.
They knew it would become public. They were warning these
companies specifically that this Russian disinformation may be about Hunter
or Joe Biden, and it might even include Barisma, is
my understanding. And then when the story broke in the
(12:27):
New York Post in October of twenty twenty. Many of
those social media company leaders like Mark Zuckerberg and Jack
Dorsey a Twitter. They were asking the FBI, is this
what you were warning about? Or is it true? They
wouldn't give them the answer, even though they knew the truth.
They knew what the answer was, they had prebunked the
entire story. The story gets suppressed. That impacts the election.
(12:49):
To me, that's putting cinderblocks on the scales of an election.
And lastly, I would argue, from twenty twenty to twenty
twenty four, in the weaponization of the DOJ etc. And
lawfair that went on against Donald Trump, that was to
bloody him up and destroy him so he would never
be a viable candidate at all for twenty twenty four,
that to me, all combined would be the grand conspiracy
(13:12):
of many of the same actors' names and players.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Thoughts.
Speaker 7 (13:15):
Oh, I completely agree, And let's transport ourselves back to
when the FBI rated Trump's personal home in mar Lago,
which was just a shocking, unprecedented act of suggery. One
of their stated reasons for going in there was they
thought he had a bunch of these documents implicating them
in their Russiagate conspiracy, and they were going back there
(13:38):
to take all those documents back from him. So even
the raid of him, the federal charges against him were
part of this larger conspiracy that started with the entire
Russiagate collusion hoax. And this isn't just the biggest scandal
of the last couple of years or the biggest scandal
of the twenty first century. I think it is the
(14:00):
biggest political scandal in American history and to dates yet
not one person has gone to prison for it.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Quick break right back more with Sean Davis, CEO, co
founder of The Federalist on the other side than your
calls coming up eight hundred and nine four one Sean,
as we continue.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Coast to coast border the Sean Hennity is on the
radio right now.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
We continue now Sean Davis is with us CEO, co
founder of The Federalist. This is where I guess we
have to manage people's expectations, right, I mean, I never
like to overpromise and under deliver. I think the evidence
is overwhelming. I think it's incontrovertible. I think the timeline
is very clear. The fifty one former Intel officials, not
(15:11):
one of them knew a thing about Hunter's laptop. They
knew that the Steele dossier was garbage, they knew the
real value of Mara a Lago, they knew that the
statute of limitations had run out on a legal non
disclosure agreement.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
And then I can keep going and going and going.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
It's just never ending, made up, trumped up charges pun
intended to destroy this man and to impact presidential elections
and impact the office of the presidency. Now I would
agree with you. I think it's the biggest scandal in history.
Will anything happen in your view?
Speaker 7 (15:43):
Well, I think one good development on that front was
when Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the formation of what
she called a strikeforce from DJ and at strike force
is a very particular type of entity. It's not just
one special prosecuting with the Informado DOJ going to investigate
(16:03):
stuff by himself. It is a directive that all agencies
have to work together towards a common goal of investigating
and prosecuting crime. And if you look at the history
of these DOJ strike forces, these multi agency strike forces,
they were really designed and used to great effect against
organized crime, against mob crime, to root out and prosecute racketeering.
(16:28):
That to me is a sign that DOJ is very
seriously looking at what happened, not as a series of
discrete events whereby one or two intellificials set something false
before Congress, but a massive conspiracy designed to defraud the
entire United States for years. So I think that's a
great development from our DOJ so far.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I think it is as well.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I have a pretty high degree of confidence that this
is not being done for no reason, and I hope
we get to the bottom of it because if we don't,
I think what Dan Bongino was warning about this weekend
and is widely publicized X post, We're not going to
have a republic at the end of this process if
(17:11):
this type of thing can go on and continue and
people are not held accountable. Sean Davis, CEO, co founder Federalists.
We appreciate you, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Always a pleasure. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
Yes there's a cease fire, but if you ask anyone
in Israel if they feel peace, you're going to get
a very different story. You have tens and tens of
thousands of Israelis that have been bombed out of their homes.
Their website is IFCJ dot org. That's IFCJ dot org.
Today when we come back, more of the best of
(17:41):
the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Stay tuned.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Are listening to the best of the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Information.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Download Sean Hannity and.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
The breaking news you might have missed today at Shawn's
Insider Information.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Hannity is on right.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Now, alright, twenty five now till the top of the hour,
eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean our number. You
want to be a part of the program, all right
before we get back. I know it gets complicated, and
John Solomon will join us at the top of the
next hour. Because we've only been working on this story
for eight years, and that is the Russia Russia Russia
hoax and this dorm report annex that was released today.
(18:39):
And I agree with Senator Charles Grassley, probably the biggest
political scandal in history. I have been saying, based on
the declassification by Tulsea Gabber.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
That that this is so much bigger than.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Watergate, makes Watergate look like a jaywalking offense, and it's
so complex and sophisticated. We're going to try and break
it down. It gets complicated, though, But before we do that,
I don't know how many of you saw the video.
We showed it again last night of this brawl that
broke out in Cincinnati. I love Cincinnati. I've been to
Cincinnati many many times. I love the people of Cincinnati.
(19:14):
And what's so sad about this is you watch this,
this gang of people just pounding on this one guy,
hicking him in the head, punching him in the head,
one after another, and somebody comes up and just cole
Cox this this innocent woman out of nowhere. She didn't
(19:36):
see it coming, knocked her right to the ground, right out.
The fact that these two people are even alive today
is somewhat miraculous. And there's a lot of sad parts
of this story. There were a lot of people watching,
standing around filming, and my understanding is only one person
took the time to even bother to call the police
(19:57):
and bring them and get them involved in all of this.
And the second part of this, there weren't enough people
that said, hey, you know, maybe put down your phone,
stop recording, and maybe start helping the innocent people that
potentially could die in this situation. Now the Senator from Ohio,
Bernie Mareno released He said, this is Holly, this is
(20:19):
the woman. You didn't see it coming. He got punched
in the face, knocked out, and he shared a photo
of her or photos of her showing her injuries. He said,
she gave me permission to release the photos so others
will never suffer what she had to suffer through. And
I look at these photos and you can barely believe
(20:40):
that she got out of this alive. Quote she wanted
to have a nice evening out with friends and said
instead she got this. He wrote on social media. My
friend Bill Cunningham, he's the highest rated talk show host
in the history of talk radio in one single state,
and he remained so today fifty years on the air.
(21:01):
Bill Cunningham, God bless you, God bless America. I want
a full report.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
How are you, my friend Sean Hennity. First of all,
I want to go into the words of Mark Twain.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
Who said that tree, why does the sound of your
voice make me laugh?
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I don't know why. I'll go ahead.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Mark Twain said when the world ends, he wants to
be in Cincinnati, Ohio, because we will find out about it.
For about ten years Well, what's happening in Cincinnati happened
ten years ago in New York and Philadelphia. De Blasio
in Chicago, with Lightfoot in Portland. Atlanta just named the city,
and we had a run a pretty conservative, liberal, whatever
(21:42):
you want to say, democratic mayors. But now the last
five or ten years we've gone hard left, and Cincinnati
now is experiencing the same crap that goes on in
every major American city controlled by Democrats. And it began
slowly before we get the holly with truancy violations not
(22:02):
being not being dealt with the public school system as
twenty five percent of the student body doesn't show up.
Then there were curfew violations put in place and the
city cops will ignore that. Then there was open air
drug dealing and pot smoking, and the city cops were
told to ignore that. Then there was homelessness, homeless camps,
(22:23):
and the city cops were told, well ignore that. Then
there was open air drug used, needles, prostitution, and the
cops were told, well, ignore that. And then there were
traffic laws being violated, so the city cops didn't want
to pull people over, so we had speed bumps put
everywhere as kind of passive restraints on behavior because when
(22:43):
you pull somebody over, you go hands on, don't have
a license, no insurance. So the city cops said, okay,
I quit doing that stuff. Then we were declared to
be a sanctuary city. And then two hundred and fifty
cops retired, said we can't take it anymore. We have
lousy schools, busted up violence, We have a two thousand
car stolen every year. We have in the city of Cincinnati,
(23:06):
which is only like four miles by eight miles, twenty
thousand shots fired every year. That only strikes about four
hundred people, thank God. And when all this is going on,
our mayor, a f tab Purival who's a metro sexual,
had left town for a week or two to go
on vacation. As the music festival is going on, as
(23:28):
the Reds are beating up on Tampa, as my good
friend Ice Cube comes to town for the basketball tournament.
The mayor is gone, leaving in the hands of the
president of the council, Victoria Parks, who said, quote, they
begged for that beatdown, and I would defy anyone to
look at the terrible foes of that woman, and said
(23:49):
that she begged that to happen to her. And then
when the apprehendant, when the cops finally arrest some of
these guys, a judge. Of course, the liberal Democrats gave
one of the perpetrators a four hundred dollars cash bond
to get out of jail, to go out and commit
more crimes. So Cincinnati is going through whatever major American
city's gone through, just a little bit late, you.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Know, Billy Cunningham. Sometimes you ask people a question, how
are you doing? And then they actually answer, and you're
in your mind, You're going, why did I bother asking
you expect now I'm doing fine?
Speaker 3 (24:23):
How are you?
Speaker 4 (24:24):
And then they said, oh, my life sucks, my life's miserable.
You are describing the disintegration of Middle America, one of
what was formerly one of the greatest towns and cities
of all time, and this took place over the last
twenty years. You are correcting your analysis, describing this is
(24:45):
New York and New Jersey and Illino in Chicago, this
is San Francisco, Los Angeles, every major metropolis, and you're
describing almost it's a carbon copy of failed policies in
blue cities, blue states. And I hope to God it's
(25:07):
not the rest of Ohio.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Well, Cleveland, Columbus, Akron, Toledo. Yes, And the difficulty is,
can we be a great nation the shining city on
the hill? Can we have an economy with three percent
GDP growth, with low unemployment, with tariffs, working American job
When America's major democratically run cities or in total collapse,
(25:33):
it's total. Can we long ago with the idea that's
the top twenty American cities? You pay big taxes, you
can't go to the public school system. When you call
police to come help me, no police arrive. Confiscatory taxes,
rules and regulations, also, high insurance premiums, and the jails
(25:54):
should be full, but they're not. Can America be a
great nation when every democratic run city is in collapse?
How long can we survive? Sean Hannity, How long can
we exist as the greatest nation on the face of
the earth over the accomplishments of Donald Trump, etc. When
every look at Philadelphia had garbage everywhere and that describes
(26:16):
physically and metaphorically what's happening in Chicago, Portland, La San Francisco,
Atlanta just picked the city. How do we exist when
our major cities are in collapse because of policies. And
I'll say one other thing. You know what happened after
David Dinkins. You were there. We went through a stretch
of Rooney for eight years, in Bloomberg for twelve twenty
(26:37):
years stretch in New York, and all of a sudden
it worked. We know what works to fix it. So
why don't the voters who are failing and losing and
flousy streengts and kids who can't go to school, bullets
flying everywhere one of the voters of New York Washington
and say, you know what, we can't pay it anymore.
(26:58):
We got a change.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Defies logic, doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
I mean you think of think back to twenty sixteen
and Donald Trump's saying to certain people, going, what have
you got to lose? Because if you look at these
blue cities and blue states, you know, by and large,
you know where democrats have run these cities and states
for decades, and you describe it perfectly, and it's like
(27:25):
a horrible model that's been duplicated around the country. And
you have the worst schools, you don't have law and order,
you don't have safety and security. When you know when
I was with you back in two thousand and four,
in two thousand and eight, I remember we were doing
quite a bit on presidential campaigns in those years together.
(27:46):
And I think back to the Cincinnati I once knew,
the home of Skyline ChIL a home at that time Willie's.
You know, you had a bar of sports bar at
the time with the best chicken wings I ever had
in my life. I think of all the great things
in Cincinnati. You are not describing the Cincinnati I knew
(28:06):
back then. That's not that long ago. Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
Three cities, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, the three largest
cities in America. When given a choice in Los Angeles,
they select Karen Bass. When given a choice in Chicago,
after four years of the disastrous Lori Lightfoot, what do
we get? We get Brandon Johnson, who's to the left
of Lorie Lightfoot. Now in New York, I guess unless
(28:32):
our buddy Curtis Sliwa arises like a phoenix, and I
hope he does. New York City's going to be run
by ma'm Donnie who's a literal communist. So the voter's
given a choice to go a different direction. In La
in Chicago and in New York. What these exact opposite direction.
And when the president of City Council says, quote, they
(28:54):
beg for that beatdown. She's being supported by large parts
of the civil rights so called movement in Cincinnati because
she reflects the values of so many voters. How does
Mam Donnie get forty percent in the primary and then
gets over the hump because of the voting system. And
I guess he's gonna win because of Cuomo runs and
(29:16):
at Curtis they're gonna split the anti Mam Donnie vote
and now you're going to have something worse. At what
point where the Democrats wake up and say, what do
you have to lose? Why do we never like this?
Speaker 4 (29:28):
What was never Billy Cunningham, I left New York. You
used to go to New York. You had a national,
nationally syndicated talk show. It was very popular. You were
very successful. And I'd see you in the streets of
New York and you would walk around. You were like
a rock star in New York City. It was amazing
(29:48):
to watch this young kid from Cincinnati and how successful
you are. And I'm asking you, Bill Cunningham, do you
really believe there's hope to turn this around in the
beautiful city of Cincinnati. Because I had made the determination
that New York was finished, that nothing could be done,
And like so many other companies and so many other
(30:10):
people before me, I had concluded that there was no hope,
there was no turning it around. And now it's about
to get ten times worse if Mom Donnie gets in office.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
I walked out of your studios on sixth Avenue Avenue
in Americas, I could walk down to the Eventy at
twenty ninth. I could walk into the park. Bill Cunningham
in twenty fourteen fifteen could walk into Central Park and
not feel unsafe. I could walk to Rockefeller Plaza. I
walked down to a Battery Park at night, alive, vibrant
(30:46):
people walking around. What man or woman today at ten
pm would go from your building what you had it
in Fox News when you were there, into the park,
then down to Battery Park about an hour walk and
walk back. Who in the right mind would do that today?
Because the knockout game has come to Cincinnati. One punch,
one out, and you have to get nine innings. And
(31:09):
this poor woman named Holly was the second inning of
a knockout game in which the perpetrator gets out on
a four hundred dollars cash bond, and she's number two.
And now the social media is alive with the idea
that this was staged, this isn't real.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
And secondly, oh, come on, look at her face. Look
at these pictures. She's lucky, she's alive today. I feel
so sorry for this woman. I hope she sues the
hell out of the city of Cincinnati for not protecting her.
I hope she sues the people that did this to her.
Last I read there were five people arrested. But let
anything happen. Bill Cunningham final.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
Question, Well, my hope, I always say, Sean Hannity, keep
hope alive. I have no hope that major American cities
will see the light they pay off the political leadership,
much like in the South, when the Democratic Party ignored
federal law constantly. That resulted in the Civil War, and
(32:08):
then it resulted in the ku Klux Plan lynching of blacks,
and then it resulted in the ku Klux Plan walking
down Pennsylvania Avenue and their outfits. Under Democratic leadership, FDR
kept the Blacks out of the military, and today, once
again the old Democratic Party is back ignoring federal law
to the detriment of the citizens who put them in power.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
I'd be Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
I am going to invite you and anybody else from
Cincinnati to move to my free state of Florida. If
you feel that this is now your future and your destiny,
Florida awaits you, and you and you have my full blessing,
Bill Cunningham. God bless you, God bless America. You're a
(32:51):
great American, sir.
Speaker 5 (32:53):
God bless America. Thank you, Sean, thank you, my brother,
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Eight hundred and ninety four one Shawn our number. If
you're still with the big carriers Verizon, AT and T
T Mobile, you are overpaying. You can get the same
cell towers, same five G network from Puretalk, my cell
phone company, a veteran owned company, and the average family
for the same service is paying, saving rather more than
one thousand dollars a year the same exact service. Make
(33:19):
the switch to Puretalk. Pound two fifty key words save

Durham Report and the smoking gun evidence as it relates
to the complete Russia Russia Russia hoax. Also Chucky Schumer

The best of Sean Hennedy is on.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Now.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well, we have come in.

To get saying you a conscious sound will be let tell.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
And if you want a little banging and Yan Yank come.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Along and let's take a look at Dems and let's
look at their net favorable ratings.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Woof, woof.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
The Democratic Party is breaking records in the way, Jessica, Dean,
you don't want to break records.
Speaker 5 (00:38):
To be honest with you, the country is moving towards Trump.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
These polls that come out and show him not doing well,
I don't.
Speaker 6 (00:44):
I don't buy that, Mom, Donnie. In many ways at
the future, he knew how to campaign. He's doing everything right.
Speaker 7 (00:48):
There's a lot to learn from him.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I think that what he's been able to do is
something that our party ought to learn from.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Freedom is back in style.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Welcome to the revolution.
Speaker 4 (01:00):

Information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Stay right here for our final news round up and
information Overload.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
All right, News Roundup and Information Overload. Our eight hundred
and nine four one, Shawn Urt number if you want
to be a part of the program.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
So we have new developments today.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
If you go back to the declassification by Tulci Gabbard,
let's remind you of what she said when she announced
she was making this declassification some of the things that
she found, uh like, for example, then CIA Director John
Brennan over ruling CIA officers who dared to challenge the
(01:56):
Russiagate narrative. Remember the original and intelligence assessment report that
was put out was one that said that Donald Trump
never colluded with Russia and there was no evidence of such.
And this is weeks and weeks after the twenty sixteen election.
Here's what she said.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
The Intelligence Committee's oversight report reveals that CIA Director Brennan
overruled senior CIA officers who challenged the Obama ordered intelligence assessment,
stating quote, we don't have direct information that Putin wanted
to get Trump elected. Yet the Obama directed assessment was
published on January sixth, twenty seventeen, which explicitly stated, quote,
(02:36):
we assess Putin and the Russian government aspired to help
President elect Trump's election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary
Clinton and publicly contrasting her unfavorably to him, end of quote.
With regards to the Seal dossier, we now know that
one of the source documents that the Obama administration used
in the creation of this intelligence assessment in January of
(02:58):
twenty seventeen was none other than the discredited, unverified Steele dossier.
The House Intel report states, quote, contradicting public claims by
then CIA Director Brennan that the dossier was not in
any way incorporated into this intelligence assessment. The dossier was
referenced in the intelligence assessment's main body text and further
(03:19):
detailed in a two page assessment annex. John Brennan lied,
and he denied using this dossier in this intelligence assessment
that President Obama ordered because he knew it was discredited.
It was a politically motivated, manufactured document. He directed senior
CIA officials to use it anyway.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
They knew by December twenty sixteen. That's why they got
rid of Christopher Steele. At the time, they knew it
was discredited. They were even warned about it as early
as August of twenty sixteen. Bruce Or warned James, call
me not to trust the document that it was political
in nature and this was the Hillary Clinton bought in
(04:00):
Russian disinformation dossier. And anyway, it was not only discredited
and unverified, it has since been totally completely debunked. It
was debunked by December of twenty sixteen. And then it
raises questions about call me, because it was the bulk
of information also used for not one, not two, not three,
(04:21):
but four phiz applications, three of which called Me personally
signed on to himself even well after the point, designing
at least two of them, knowing completely that it was
discredited by law. Once he knows that information presented to
a PHIZA court ends up being false, at that point
he has an obligation to go back to the phiz
A court and said, no, we made a mistake. And
(04:43):
we have this big story breaking earlier today that cash
Patel has turned over documents to the Senate Judiciary Committee
Chairman Chuck Grassley, which apparently he found a trove of
sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump Russia
p that were buried in multiple quote burn bags in
a secret room inside the FBI. Sources now telling Fox
(05:07):
News Digital that the burn bag system is used to
destroy documents designated as classified or higher. And anyway, the
multiple burn bags were found filled with thousands of documents,
and sources now saying that one of the documents the
FBI officials found in the burn bag was the classified
annex to the former Special Council John Durham's final report,
(05:31):
which includes the underlying intelligence that he reviewed, and the
declassification of the classified annex is being done in close
coordination with John Ratcliffe, the CIA director, Cash Battel, the
FBI director and the Director of National Intelligence Tulcy Gabbart,
and the Attorney General Pam Bondi according to people. But anyway,
(05:51):
this will be transmitted now to the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman.
And then this goes to the broader investigation opened by
Cash Battel's FBI into what is a grand conspiracy to
put cinder blocks on the scales of elections, which it appears,
based on everything we've been reporting now for years, absolutely
positively have happened. Sean Davis with the Federalist is going
(06:18):
to join us in just a second. Here is the
CEO and founder of the Federalist and he put up
a post to pointed out that there are five to
ten people that have been deeply involved in reporting on
the Russia collusion hopes from the very beginning back in
early twenty seventeen, he points out rightly, so he's one
of them, also others, and that they've been doing this
(06:40):
for eight years. Well, we've been doing it on this
show and been doing it on Hannity, and we've had
Sean Davis on various times about all of this, discussing
it with our ensemble cast. But the blockbuster revelations he
points out from last week about the fraudulent intelligence community
assessment is not all news, and it's not and anyone
(07:03):
saying that there's nothing new in the recent declassifications flat
out lying and it's not a nothing burger. These are
called smoking guns in the industry anyway, Sean Davis joins us, Now, sir,
how are you.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
I'm doing well?
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Thank you for having me.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Well, we were on similar parallel pass at the time,
and I know that people like you and others were
doing your work. We had you on numerous times to
talk about this and other issues. But what you're pointing
out in your post top Obama officials in their corrupt
media stenographers repeatedly lied when they claim that the bogus
(07:41):
Steele dossier, which was paid for by Hillary Clinton and
the DNC, was never referenced in the body of this
intelligence assessment. Now, Pulsey Gabbard made that very bold statement
based on the declassification announcement that she made, and she
made it clearly. And fake News CNN, which went well
to wall with this phony Russia collusion hoax all those years,
(08:04):
even cut away from the press conference because it totally
discredited what they had been reporting for the longest period
of times time, but more specifically that three year period.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
Right, And this was a major blockbuster because there were
always two big pillars that were erected in service of
the Russia collusion hopes. The second one was this idea
that Trump colluded with putin steal the election from Hillary.
That's what the steal dossier was all about. But none
of that would have been possible rhetorically without the first pillar,
(08:39):
which was the allegation that Russia interfered in the election
in twenty sixteen for the purpose of electing Donald Trump
in defeating Hillary Clinton. That really was the foundation of everything,
and what we've learned in the last week from Gabbard
and Ratcliffe. God blessed them for finding this information and
getting it out there. We found that that first pillar
(09:00):
idea that Russia was interfering to help Trump win, that
was a lie, that they knew it was a lie,
that they never had any intel to support it, and
that they even used the Steel do Fier contradictory to
John Brennan's sworn congressional testimony. They even used the Steele
Dotier to support this lie that Putin wanted Trump to win.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
You can start on a basic level, because lying to
Congress under oath is a crime, and that would then
therefore implicate a number of top people. I would assume
Brennan and Clapper and call me and we could just
start there.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Is that correct?
Speaker 7 (09:33):
Is that is correct? But there's also a five year
statute of limitations if you're looking at perjury or false statements.
Brennan's came within the last couple of years. I think
he told Congress this particular falsehood as recently as twenty
twenty three. So if you're just looking at perp well,
some of.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Them love it were in twenty twenty and I believe
that they can get this going and extend the Statute
of Limitations. Is my understanding for those three in particular.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Well, I think they may be able to I think
the better case for tolling the Statute of Limitations is
to not look at singular false statements to Congress as
the basis for all criminal charges. It's to look at
everything that was done since twenty seventeen is as part
of a massive fraudulent conspiracy against the American people and
(10:22):
against the government of the United States, and each new
false state that they make today or tomorrow or a
week from now is an overt act in furtherance of
that conspiracy, which starts that Statute of limitations clock.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Overall, again, that's all true, which is part of the
reason why I'm looking at the broader investigation of Cash Fattel. Now,
from my advantage point, everything that we know about twenty
sixteen and seventeen, and how the original intelligence assessment that
came from rank and file career rank and files senior
(11:00):
intel officials, they concluded something that was very clear that
there was no Trump Russia collusion. Well, it turns out
that Barack Obama, according to the declassification and others, did
not like that assessment, and then they went about the
business of redoing it and creating a false narrative based
(11:21):
in part on a debunct dossier that Hillary Clinton had
bought and paid for that they were warned about, you know,
early in the campaign, Brennan himself warning Obama and that
it was also used for not one but four fi's application.
So I would argue that that's part of the grand conspiracy,
and that is to undermine a duly elected president. Then
I would argue that it continues through twenty twenty, because
(11:44):
we know that they verified the authenticity of Hunter Biden's laptop.
The FBI did in March of twenty twenty, and then
they systematically went about meeting on a weekly basis with
all these big tech companies and warning them that they
may be victims of a Russia hoax and disinformation campaign.
(12:04):
And they also knew at the time that Rudy Giuliani's attorney,
Bob Costello, had a copy of Hunter's very real laptop.
They knew it would become public. They were warning these
companies specifically that this Russian disinformation may be about Hunter
or Joe Biden, and it might even include Barisma, is
my understanding. And then when the story broke in the
(12:27):
New York Post in October of twenty twenty. Many of
those social media company leaders like Mark Zuckerberg and Jack
Dorsey a Twitter. They were asking the FBI, is this
what you were warning about? Or is it true? They
wouldn't give them the answer, even though they knew the truth.
They knew what the answer was, they had prebunked the
entire story. The story gets suppressed. That impacts the election.
(12:49):
To me, that's putting cinderblocks on the scales of an election.
And lastly, I would argue, from twenty twenty to twenty
twenty four, in the weaponization of the DOJ etc. And
lawfair that went on against Donald Trump, that was to
bloody him up and destroy him so he would never
be a viable candidate at all for twenty twenty four,
that to me, all combined would be the grand conspiracy
(13:12):
of many of the same actors' names and players.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Thoughts.
Speaker 7 (13:15):
Oh, I completely agree, And let's transport ourselves back to
when the FBI rated Trump's personal home in mar Lago,
which was just a shocking, unprecedented act of suggery. One
of their stated reasons for going in there was they
thought he had a bunch of these documents implicating them
in their Russiagate conspiracy, and they were going back there
(13:38):
to take all those documents back from him. So even
the raid of him, the federal charges against him were
part of this larger conspiracy that started with the entire
Russiagate collusion hoax. And this isn't just the biggest scandal
of the last couple of years or the biggest scandal
of the twenty first century. I think it is the
(14:00):
biggest political scandal in American history and to dates yet
not one person has gone to prison for it.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Quick break right back more with Sean Davis, CEO, co
founder of The Federalist on the other side than your
calls coming up eight hundred and nine four one Sean,
as we continue.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Coast to coast border the Sean Hennity is on the
radio right now.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
We continue now Sean Davis is with us CEO, co
founder of The Federalist. This is where I guess we
have to manage people's expectations, right, I mean, I never
like to overpromise and under deliver. I think the evidence
is overwhelming. I think it's incontrovertible. I think the timeline
is very clear. The fifty one former Intel officials, not
(15:11):
one of them knew a thing about Hunter's laptop. They
knew that the Steele dossier was garbage, they knew the
real value of Mara a Lago, they knew that the
statute of limitations had run out on a legal non
disclosure agreement.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
And then I can keep going and going and going.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
It's just never ending, made up, trumped up charges pun
intended to destroy this man and to impact presidential elections
and impact the office of the presidency. Now I would
agree with you. I think it's the biggest scandal in history.
Will anything happen in your view?
Speaker 7 (15:43):
Well, I think one good development on that front was
when Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the formation of what
she called a strikeforce from DJ and at strike force
is a very particular type of entity. It's not just
one special prosecuting with the Informado DOJ going to investigate
(16:03):
stuff by himself. It is a directive that all agencies
have to work together towards a common goal of investigating
and prosecuting crime. And if you look at the history
of these DOJ strike forces, these multi agency strike forces,
they were really designed and used to great effect against
organized crime, against mob crime, to root out and prosecute racketeering.
(16:28):
That to me is a sign that DOJ is very
seriously looking at what happened, not as a series of
discrete events whereby one or two intellificials set something false
before Congress, but a massive conspiracy designed to defraud the
entire United States for years. So I think that's a
great development from our DOJ so far.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I think it is as well.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I have a pretty high degree of confidence that this
is not being done for no reason, and I hope
we get to the bottom of it because if we don't,
I think what Dan Bongino was warning about this weekend
and is widely publicized X post, We're not going to
have a republic at the end of this process if
(17:11):
this type of thing can go on and continue and
people are not held accountable. Sean Davis, CEO, co founder Federalists.
We appreciate you, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Always a pleasure. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
Yes there's a cease fire, but if you ask anyone
in Israel if they feel peace, you're going to get
a very different story. You have tens and tens of
thousands of Israelis that have been bombed out of their homes.
Their website is IFCJ dot org. That's IFCJ dot org.
Today when we come back, more of the best of
(17:41):
the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Stay tuned.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Are listening to the best of the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Information.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Download Sean Hannity and.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
The breaking news you might have missed today at Shawn's
Insider Information.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Hannity is on right.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Now, alright, twenty five now till the top of the hour,
eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean our number. You
want to be a part of the program, all right
before we get back. I know it gets complicated, and
John Solomon will join us at the top of the
next hour. Because we've only been working on this story
for eight years, and that is the Russia Russia Russia
hoax and this dorm report annex that was released today.
(18:39):
And I agree with Senator Charles Grassley, probably the biggest
political scandal in history. I have been saying, based on
the declassification by Tulsea Gabber.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
That that this is so much bigger than.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Watergate, makes Watergate look like a jaywalking offense, and it's
so complex and sophisticated. We're going to try and break
it down. It gets complicated, though, But before we do that,
I don't know how many of you saw the video.
We showed it again last night of this brawl that
broke out in Cincinnati. I love Cincinnati. I've been to
Cincinnati many many times. I love the people of Cincinnati.
(19:14):
And what's so sad about this is you watch this,
this gang of people just pounding on this one guy,
hicking him in the head, punching him in the head,
one after another, and somebody comes up and just cole
Cox this this innocent woman out of nowhere. She didn't
(19:36):
see it coming, knocked her right to the ground, right out.
The fact that these two people are even alive today
is somewhat miraculous. And there's a lot of sad parts
of this story. There were a lot of people watching,
standing around filming, and my understanding is only one person
took the time to even bother to call the police
(19:57):
and bring them and get them involved in all of this.
And the second part of this, there weren't enough people
that said, hey, you know, maybe put down your phone,
stop recording, and maybe start helping the innocent people that
potentially could die in this situation. Now the Senator from Ohio,
Bernie Mareno released He said, this is Holly, this is
(20:19):
the woman. You didn't see it coming. He got punched
in the face, knocked out, and he shared a photo
of her or photos of her showing her injuries. He said,
she gave me permission to release the photos so others
will never suffer what she had to suffer through. And
I look at these photos and you can barely believe
(20:40):
that she got out of this alive. Quote she wanted
to have a nice evening out with friends and said
instead she got this. He wrote on social media. My
friend Bill Cunningham, he's the highest rated talk show host
in the history of talk radio in one single state,
and he remained so today fifty years on the air.
(21:01):
Bill Cunningham, God bless you, God bless America. I want
a full report.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
How are you, my friend Sean Hennity. First of all,
I want to go into the words of Mark Twain.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
Who said that tree, why does the sound of your
voice make me laugh?
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I don't know why. I'll go ahead.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Mark Twain said when the world ends, he wants to
be in Cincinnati, Ohio, because we will find out about it.
For about ten years Well, what's happening in Cincinnati happened
ten years ago in New York and Philadelphia. De Blasio
in Chicago, with Lightfoot in Portland. Atlanta just named the city,
and we had a run a pretty conservative, liberal, whatever
(21:42):
you want to say, democratic mayors. But now the last
five or ten years we've gone hard left, and Cincinnati
now is experiencing the same crap that goes on in
every major American city controlled by Democrats. And it began
slowly before we get the holly with truancy violations not
(22:02):
being not being dealt with the public school system as
twenty five percent of the student body doesn't show up.
Then there were curfew violations put in place and the
city cops will ignore that. Then there was open air
drug dealing and pot smoking, and the city cops were
told to ignore that. Then there was homelessness, homeless camps,
(22:23):
and the city cops were told, well ignore that. Then
there was open air drug used, needles, prostitution, and the
cops were told, well, ignore that. And then there were
traffic laws being violated, so the city cops didn't want
to pull people over, so we had speed bumps put
everywhere as kind of passive restraints on behavior because when
(22:43):
you pull somebody over, you go hands on, don't have
a license, no insurance. So the city cops said, okay,
I quit doing that stuff. Then we were declared to
be a sanctuary city. And then two hundred and fifty
cops retired, said we can't take it anymore. We have
lousy schools, busted up violence, We have a two thousand
car stolen every year. We have in the city of Cincinnati,
(23:06):
which is only like four miles by eight miles, twenty
thousand shots fired every year. That only strikes about four
hundred people, thank God. And when all this is going on,
our mayor, a f tab Purival who's a metro sexual,
had left town for a week or two to go
on vacation. As the music festival is going on, as
(23:28):
the Reds are beating up on Tampa, as my good
friend Ice Cube comes to town for the basketball tournament.
The mayor is gone, leaving in the hands of the
president of the council, Victoria Parks, who said, quote, they
begged for that beatdown, and I would defy anyone to
look at the terrible foes of that woman, and said
(23:49):
that she begged that to happen to her. And then
when the apprehendant, when the cops finally arrest some of
these guys, a judge. Of course, the liberal Democrats gave
one of the perpetrators a four hundred dollars cash bond
to get out of jail, to go out and commit
more crimes. So Cincinnati is going through whatever major American
city's gone through, just a little bit late, you.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Know, Billy Cunningham. Sometimes you ask people a question, how
are you doing? And then they actually answer, and you're
in your mind, You're going, why did I bother asking
you expect now I'm doing fine?
Speaker 3 (24:23):
How are you?
Speaker 4 (24:24):
And then they said, oh, my life sucks, my life's miserable.
You are describing the disintegration of Middle America, one of
what was formerly one of the greatest towns and cities
of all time, and this took place over the last
twenty years. You are correcting your analysis, describing this is
(24:45):
New York and New Jersey and Illino in Chicago, this
is San Francisco, Los Angeles, every major metropolis, and you're
describing almost it's a carbon copy of failed policies in
blue cities, blue states. And I hope to God it's
(25:07):
not the rest of Ohio.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Well, Cleveland, Columbus, Akron, Toledo. Yes, And the difficulty is,
can we be a great nation the shining city on
the hill? Can we have an economy with three percent
GDP growth, with low unemployment, with tariffs, working American job
When America's major democratically run cities or in total collapse,
(25:33):
it's total. Can we long ago with the idea that's
the top twenty American cities? You pay big taxes, you
can't go to the public school system. When you call
police to come help me, no police arrive. Confiscatory taxes,
rules and regulations, also, high insurance premiums, and the jails
(25:54):
should be full, but they're not. Can America be a
great nation when every democratic run city is in collapse?
How long can we survive? Sean Hannity, How long can
we exist as the greatest nation on the face of
the earth over the accomplishments of Donald Trump, etc. When
every look at Philadelphia had garbage everywhere and that describes
(26:16):
physically and metaphorically what's happening in Chicago, Portland, La San Francisco,
Atlanta just picked the city. How do we exist when
our major cities are in collapse because of policies. And
I'll say one other thing. You know what happened after
David Dinkins. You were there. We went through a stretch
of Rooney for eight years, in Bloomberg for twelve twenty
(26:37):
years stretch in New York, and all of a sudden
it worked. We know what works to fix it. So
why don't the voters who are failing and losing and
flousy streengts and kids who can't go to school, bullets
flying everywhere one of the voters of New York Washington
and say, you know what, we can't pay it anymore.
(26:58):
We got a change.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Defies logic, doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
I mean you think of think back to twenty sixteen
and Donald Trump's saying to certain people, going, what have
you got to lose? Because if you look at these
blue cities and blue states, you know, by and large,
you know where democrats have run these cities and states
for decades, and you describe it perfectly, and it's like
(27:25):
a horrible model that's been duplicated around the country. And
you have the worst schools, you don't have law and order,
you don't have safety and security. When you know when
I was with you back in two thousand and four,
in two thousand and eight, I remember we were doing
quite a bit on presidential campaigns in those years together.
(27:46):
And I think back to the Cincinnati I once knew,
the home of Skyline ChIL a home at that time Willie's.
You know, you had a bar of sports bar at
the time with the best chicken wings I ever had
in my life. I think of all the great things
in Cincinnati. You are not describing the Cincinnati I knew
(28:06):
back then. That's not that long ago. Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
Three cities, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, the three largest
cities in America. When given a choice in Los Angeles,
they select Karen Bass. When given a choice in Chicago,
after four years of the disastrous Lori Lightfoot, what do
we get? We get Brandon Johnson, who's to the left
of Lorie Lightfoot. Now in New York, I guess unless
(28:32):
our buddy Curtis Sliwa arises like a phoenix, and I
hope he does. New York City's going to be run
by ma'm Donnie who's a literal communist. So the voter's
given a choice to go a different direction. In La
in Chicago and in New York. What these exact opposite direction.
And when the president of City Council says, quote, they
(28:54):
beg for that beatdown. She's being supported by large parts
of the civil rights so called movement in Cincinnati because
she reflects the values of so many voters. How does
Mam Donnie get forty percent in the primary and then
gets over the hump because of the voting system. And
I guess he's gonna win because of Cuomo runs and
(29:16):
at Curtis they're gonna split the anti Mam Donnie vote
and now you're going to have something worse. At what
point where the Democrats wake up and say, what do
you have to lose? Why do we never like this?
Speaker 4 (29:28):
What was never Billy Cunningham, I left New York. You
used to go to New York. You had a national,
nationally syndicated talk show. It was very popular. You were
very successful. And I'd see you in the streets of
New York and you would walk around. You were like
a rock star in New York City. It was amazing
(29:48):
to watch this young kid from Cincinnati and how successful
you are. And I'm asking you, Bill Cunningham, do you
really believe there's hope to turn this around in the
beautiful city of Cincinnati. Because I had made the determination
that New York was finished, that nothing could be done,
And like so many other companies and so many other
(30:10):
people before me, I had concluded that there was no hope,
there was no turning it around. And now it's about
to get ten times worse if Mom Donnie gets in office.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
I walked out of your studios on sixth Avenue Avenue
in Americas, I could walk down to the Eventy at
twenty ninth. I could walk into the park. Bill Cunningham
in twenty fourteen fifteen could walk into Central Park and
not feel unsafe. I could walk to Rockefeller Plaza. I
walked down to a Battery Park at night, alive, vibrant
(30:46):
people walking around. What man or woman today at ten
pm would go from your building what you had it
in Fox News when you were there, into the park,
then down to Battery Park about an hour walk and
walk back. Who in the right mind would do that today?
Because the knockout game has come to Cincinnati. One punch,
one out, and you have to get nine innings. And
(31:09):
this poor woman named Holly was the second inning of
a knockout game in which the perpetrator gets out on
a four hundred dollars cash bond, and she's number two.
And now the social media is alive with the idea
that this was staged, this isn't real.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
And secondly, oh, come on, look at her face. Look
at these pictures. She's lucky, she's alive today. I feel
so sorry for this woman. I hope she sues the
hell out of the city of Cincinnati for not protecting her.
I hope she sues the people that did this to her.
Last I read there were five people arrested. But let
anything happen. Bill Cunningham final.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
Question, Well, my hope, I always say, Sean Hannity, keep
hope alive. I have no hope that major American cities
will see the light they pay off the political leadership,
much like in the South, when the Democratic Party ignored
federal law constantly. That resulted in the Civil War, and
(32:08):
then it resulted in the ku Klux Plan lynching of blacks,
and then it resulted in the ku Klux Plan walking
down Pennsylvania Avenue and their outfits. Under Democratic leadership, FDR
kept the Blacks out of the military, and today, once
again the old Democratic Party is back ignoring federal law
to the detriment of the citizens who put them in power.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
I'd be Bill Cunningham.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
I am going to invite you and anybody else from
Cincinnati to move to my free state of Florida. If
you feel that this is now your future and your destiny,
Florida awaits you, and you and you have my full blessing,
Bill Cunningham. God bless you, God bless America. You're a
(32:51):
great American, sir.
Speaker 5 (32:53):
God bless America. Thank you, Sean, thank you, my brother,
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Eight hundred and ninety four one Shawn our number. If
you're still with the big carriers Verizon, AT and T
T Mobile, you are overpaying. You can get the same
cell towers, same five G network from Puretalk, my cell
phone company, a veteran owned company, and the average family
for the same service is paying, saving rather more than
one thousand dollars a year the same exact service. Make
(33:19):
the switch to Puretalk. Pound two fifty key words save
now Wireless by Americans for Americans.
