Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let not your heart be troubled. You are listening to
the Sean Hannity Radio show podcast. The preliminary information from
police sources and emphasized World my former world preliminary subject
to change. UH. It is a man in his middle twenties,
probably possibly from Bangladesh and in the country about seven

(00:21):
years who supposedly was setting the device off in the
name of ices. So definitely a terrorist attack, definitely intended.
As to whether the device malfunctioned or didn't function correctly,
that will have to be determined. UH. As of the moment,
he is apparently the only injured person in terms of
from the event, possibly others from the noise the explosion,

(00:44):
maybe ear issues. UH. Police have him in custody talking
with him. Again, this information is all preliminary. UH. There
will be a significant investigation of the area in question,
as you might imagine that bomb squad at sea. There
will be delays down at the authority throughout most of
the day while they conduct that investigation. It wasn't a

(01:04):
passageway between the subway UH system and the port authority
between seventh and eighth Avenue. Any evidence that there's an
uptick and in attempts are but clear evidence that we
had the bombing the night after I left my term
as Commissioner. Jimmy O'Neill's first night in office. We had
just several weeks ago the attack along the Hudson the

(01:25):
Pike Way, and then we have had this one. That's
three attacks, uh, definite terrorist attacks. The pace is quickening,
as we have been indicating that it would uh that
New York continues to remain the focus of interest because
of what is happening right now, the intense publicity that
anything that happens in New York brings about, and so

(01:48):
this is something that we can anticipate. These attacks are
going to increase their preliminary facts. So just just just
happened a couple of hours ago, so you have to
understand these are preliminary facts. And approximately seven twenty below
Brown Walkway, which connects the I and D line at
four two and eighth Avenue with the I R T
Line at four two and seven, the shuttle at Times

(02:10):
Square and the one two and three train. Police were
called to a reported explosion. Responding units found an injured
seven year old mail We've identified him as I k
U A k A y E d U l l
a H. He had burns and wounds to his body.
Preliminary investigation at the scene indicates this mail was wearing

(02:33):
an improvised low tech explosive device attached to his body.
He intentionally detonated that device. Looks like there are three
other people in the immediate area also sustained minor entries,
but Dan and Igro was going to talk about that.
The subject was placed in custody and transported the Bellevue Hospital.
Immediate police response to the scene included members of the

(02:55):
Transit Bureau, Emergency Service Division, Bomb Squad, Counter Terrorist him
mt A, Police, State Troopers, and the FBI's Joint Terrorist
Task Force. In addition, the NYPD Strategic Response Group, a
critical response command. We're assigned to other key transportation hubs
in other locations throughout the city as precautionary measure. This

(03:17):
incident was captured on transit system video. A further review
when interview witnesses is underway. A thorough background investigation into
a Kaula is being conducted by the Joint Terrorist Task Force.
We're asking anyone who may have any information about this
individual for incident to call the Terror Hotline. That's eight NYC. Say,

(03:39):
let's be clear, as New Yorkers, our lives revolved around
the subways. When we hear of an attack in the
subway is incredibly unsettling. And let's be also clear, this
was an attempted terrorist attack. Thank God the perpetrator did
not achieve his ultimate goals. Thank God our first responders

(04:02):
were there so quickly to address the situation, to make
sure people were safe. Thank God. The only injuries that
we know at this point because we're minor, all right,
those are the sounds from yesterday and the latest terror attack.
Here you have in New York City and this guy
strapping a bomb on himself. This could have been far
worse during morning uh, chaotic traffic in New York in

(04:25):
the subway station by Times Square and uh, you know,
no more perfect time to bring on our good friend, uh,
Jonathan Killham. He has a brand new book out. It's
out today. It's called Sheep No More. I was honored
to write the foreward for this book. And you have
wonderful people, my buddy Marcus Lottrelle and uh and some
other wonderful people. Dave Webb was one of them. Um,

(04:48):
then you've got a lot of military people were conger
all of our friends literally reading this book and loving it.
The art of awareness and attack survival. It happens to
be something that Jonathan and I to dicuss privately a
lot because of my love of martial arts and self defense,
and the the attitude is, we can't be sheep anymore.
I mean, this is like a terror attack a week.

(05:10):
This is you know, and it's happening not just here
but all over the world. And I don't think most
people are prepared to deal with any situation. And and
that's what I've learned in the five plus years now
that I've been doing martial arts, you know, basically awareness
and attack survival. Look at what you exactly look at
what you've discussed over the past month a lunch on.

(05:31):
You've talked about sexual predators, You've talked about terrorist attacks,
You've talked about UH, people at the top of the
FBI and our government that are criminals. Basically what this
book does. And I know that's a huge stretch of
different types of criminality, but the reality is all attackers
build target packages on what they want to attack. They

(05:53):
find a target, they look for their vulnerabilities, they look
for the critical times, critical areas. UH for those times,
they look for the best avenue of approach and then
they exploit those things and they create a target package.
We can be doing the same thing, Sean. You have.
If you look at your life when you get up
in the mornings, when you commute to work, when you're

(06:14):
here at the studio, you go to Fox, you commute home,
you have about five to ten different sectors in your life,
and you literally and each one of those sectors have
between five and seven types of attacks that could happen
to you. Once you discover those and you look at
it from the attacker's point of view, there's no surprise anymore.
You you're gonna know who, why, where, when and how

(06:35):
they could attack you, and then you either avoid it
or you mitigate the circumstances. And it doesn't matter if
it's a Harvey Weinstein or if it's an Isis guy
trying to blow up Times Square. Once you realize where
who they are and where they're coming from, you can
mitigate those things. I agree. You know. One of the
things that has been really amazing is the military and
many observers. As soon as Donald Trump changed the rules

(06:57):
of engagement and allowed the military harry to do their job,
and we're not guiding wars through Washington. You know, we
have been able to deeply degrade ISIS at a level
that even military guys on the ground said that they
were shocked about. Um. All right, let me played a
lot of This was also connected to chain migration, and

(07:17):
this gets to the issue of vetting refugees and building
the wall. Let me play with the President said about
ending chain migration. Before we begin, I want to address
the terrorist attack that took place yesterday in New York
City and to praise the first responders, local police and
federal law enforcement for their quick action. They did an

(07:37):
incredible job. There have now been two terrorist attacks in
New York City in recent weeks, carried out by foreign
nationals here on green cards. The first attacker came through
the visa lottery and the second through chain migration. We're
gonna end both of them, the lottery system and chain

(07:59):
my grade, we're gonna end him fast. Congress must get
involved immediately, and they are involved immediately, and I can
tell you we have tremendous support. They will be ended.
This is the simple common sense that needs to be
applied to every person in this country in terms if
they want to survive, which is I'll get into that

(08:21):
in a second that you talk a lot about in
the book. Sure, listen, it doesn't matter if it's chain migration,
if it's the way the State Department sets up vetting overseas,
or the way that our military is now allowed to
fight what happens, or look at stopping frisk and the
the surveillance of the mosques that were stopped here. When
we have bad policy that's set up strictly because of politics,

(08:44):
either eliminating something or creating a void, when where that
void is at is where bad people exist, and that's
how nefarious people operate. They look for those voids. The
fact that the President identified chain migration, he's identified the
border is in this country, He's identified so many different
vulnerabilities and and also the rules of engagement. He's identified

(09:06):
those vulnerabilities as voids where these bad people opera, and
he's eliminating those shows you that he is understanding, uh,
and his awareness is heightened, and he understands where, uh,
these types of political mistakes have been made so he
can fix these things and close the gap on these
bad people. You know, you you have to look at
this on the micro level and on the macro level.

(09:28):
We as a country, we've got to fight radical Islamas,
we've got to fight mulos in Iran. We've got to
fight evil wherever it exists. But you know, you start
out by actually defining key terms predator and prey. And
one of the things that that drew me to you
as a friend was when I do self defense, which

(09:48):
is krab magaw kempo, jiu jitsu, boxing, UM, blade and
firearm training. That also includes defensive blade and firearm training.
If you have a gun at that at the pointed
at your head, what you do if you have a
gun at your back, if you have a gun at
your chest. Um, if somebody pulls out a blade, which
can be more deadly than a firearm in some instances,
if somebody's you know, trained in the use of that blade. Um,

(10:11):
you're telling people that they have got to understand what this,
what they're what this is about for them, and what
they need to know and how they're gonna deal with
evil if it confronts them in life. Exactly, Sean, if
you go look at the animals on the planes of Africa,
you have the lions, which are the predators. And you
have like, let's say the gazelle, who are a prey.

(10:31):
But the gazelles don't show up at the water hole
completely clueless, looking at a cell phone with no idea
where the bad guys gonna come from. They actually know
exactly how the bad guy works. But they have to
put themselves in that environment to get water, so they
know how to act, not just react. They know where
the bad guys gonna come from. And that's why they're
constantly you're looking, observing, and then if something happens, they

(10:55):
react or they with action, right, so action beats reaction.
I know you hear that all the time. That is
where people need to get in their mind. The average
person walking through the streets of New York City, they've
got their headphones on or in their ears, or their
text walking or they're talking on the phone. They have
zero situational awareness. And I've talked about this a hundred

(11:17):
times when I think, really, if we look at the shooting,
the mass shooting in Vegas, as soon as it happened,
what people do. They assumed that it was fireworks instead
of assuming it was an attack. And then and this
is No, I'm not hitting on anybody for this because
this is where we have to get away from this mindset.
But the promoters, the sound people, the lighting people, what

(11:37):
they do. They sat there and tried to figure it out,
and they turned the lights on and everybody laid down.
They pretty much just presented a huge target. No, no
different than if you're going to arrange and you have
a static targets. Now you can see everybody. So if
if they had understood the reality that we're in um
maybe you wouldn't have as many drinks when you go there.
But if you hear some popping over, instead of saying

(11:58):
that's probably fireworks, you say, I think that's gunshots. Let's
keep the lights off and already have a plan, not
make it up. There, have a plan. Where are you
sitting restaurants for example? You know, I mean there are
certain little things that you can do to increase your
safety odds that if something happens, or even a movie
theater for crying out loud, there every place I can

(12:19):
guarantee you the majority place that you go. Take um
uh in. When the Ariana Grande concert was was blown up, right,
had you done any of these parents had done any
type of online surveillance of that area. They would have
known that is to drop off and pick up area.
They should have told their kids weight ten fifty minutes,
be the last ones out of the stadium. We'll get
you down the road here. Don't come out in this area.

(12:41):
That's a critical area and that's a critical time. Fortunately
they don't think like that, and those kids and those
adults are dead. Now, all right, quick break, We'll come
back more with Jonathan Gillham and his brand new book,
Sheep No More. I don't think Gilliam continues with us
as a brand new book out today, Sheep No More.
You can get it on Hannity dot com. You know,
I don't think people are fully aware of the dangers
that that police law enforcement have to deal with every day.

(13:05):
And maybe they shouldn't have to be aware of it,
but I do think that there's the thing that bothers me.
And this is for a lot of my friends. I
asked them all the time, what are you gonna do
what happens if? And I run through scenarios with them,
and I'd say the vast majority of no clue what
they're gonna do if something happens, and that what if
game that we you talk about in the in the forward,

(13:25):
and we talked about in the book, that what if
game is is really that's what we're doing here. It's
one of the most important things that you can do. UM.
You can start teaching kids this at nine years old.
You can teach old people this. The reality is, like truckers,
a lot of truckers listening to this radio show, UM,
they parked their trucks in in places where they wouldn't
normally park their truck. They should be able to before

(13:46):
they parked there. She should get on Google Earth through
a map study where they're at. Call. I would call
the local precincts say I'm parked here. They may not
want to hear it, but now you've identified who you
are and that you're here. These are things that you
have to think of before you get there by playing
the what if game. All right, let's talk about the
rest of the book here. As you put it all together,
you talk about escaping, evading, fighting, fear the defender, building

(14:08):
an attacker's target package. The reality is we're all sitting ducks, right.
You know, these women that were going up to Harvey
Weinstein's hotel room they could have pre thought that out.
It was no surprise he was gonna try to pull
that on people. Why not bring somebody with you, Why
not bring another person with you, a guy with you,

(14:29):
your your manager. You see, these are things that you
can do to mitigate these circumstances if you're in If
I was a female working for NBC and I knew
Matt Lower was a predator, I would have made sure
before I went into that room that I had somebody
with me, or I had somebody calling me within three
or four minutes to tell, you know, just so I
could say, oh, I got a meeting, I gotta go.

(14:50):
There's ways that you can think like this predator and
then actually mitigate the circumstances. We have to get to
a point. And the other thing you just said there
is instead of saying if you get it yourself into
something like happened in Times Square, it's not run high
or fight, it's escape, evade or fight. Escape means that
you're you're doing your best to get out of there,

(15:10):
but using cover and concealment. Evade means you may hide,
but you're going to continue to move. This is the
self defense book and something you're gonna learn about how
to keep yourself and your family safe and learn a
lot about how dangerous this world can be. It's called
Sheep No More Jonathan Gillham. We'll put it on our website,
Hannity dot Com, The Art of Awareness and Attacks Revival

(15:32):
nine one, Shaun is a number of good congratulations on
the book. We really love it, and uh, we're glad
it finally came out, Shawn Spicer at the bottom of
this half hour. As we continue, Let's put it this way,
there is absolutely no colusion that has been proven. When
you look at the committee is whether it's a Senate
or the House, everybody walking by worst enemies, they walk out,

(15:53):
they say there is no collusion. But we'll continue to look.
There's spending millions and millions of dollars. There is absolutely
no collusion. I didn't make a phone call to Russia.
I have nothing to do with Russia. Everybody knows if
that was a Democrat hoax, it was an excuse for
losing the election. We've learned about Donald Trump Jr. Eagerly

(16:14):
accepting a meeting, uh to get dirt on Hillary Clinton
from somebody he was told was a Russian lawyer. We've
learned with the Comey plea agreement with UM George Popadopolis,
former foreign foreign advisor for the Trump campaign, We've learned
that he was told by a professor with ties to
the Kremlin, Uh, in April two thousand and sixteen, long

(16:34):
before I knew anything about the hacking or the public
mething about the hacking, UM, that the Russians were claiming
that they had damaging information. Now, you said in January
two thousand seventeen this year that you knew of no collusion.
Did you know of those two events? No, I did not,
And Uh. The statement I made at the time was
it was was true. We had no I had no

(16:55):
direct evidence of collusion. Now, we had lots of concerns
because we were aware of multiple meetings that were going on.
While at least my part was not directly of the
content of the of these meetings, but we were certainly concerned.
And the metaphor i'd us before is I think our
dashboard warning lights were clearly on about what was going on.

(17:17):
But to say specifically that we had evidence of smoking
gun evidence of collusion, Uh no, But of course a
lot more has come out. Uh, that's uh, you know, raises,
I think circumstantial questions, if nothing else. But Mr Clapper
then went on to say that to his knowledge, there
was no evidence of collusion between members of the Trump

(17:39):
campaign and the Russians. We did not conclude any evidence
in our report. And when I say our report, that
is the n S, S S A, FBI, and CIA with
my office the Director of National Intelligence, that had anything
any reflection of collusion between the members of Trump campaign
and the Russians. There was no evidence of that in
our report. Was Mr Clapper wrong when he said that,

(18:01):
I think he's right about characterizing the report which you
all have read. We did not include any evidence in
our report. And I say our that's n S, A, FBI,
and CIA with my office of Director of National Intelligence,
that had anything that had any reflection of collusion between

(18:21):
members of the Trump campaign and the Russians. There was
no evidence of that included in our report. Have you
seen anything either intelligence briefings, through intelligence briefings, anything to
back up any of the accusations that they have the
documentation that they did the hacking, the hacking on the
d n C right and on some of us. You

(18:43):
know that the collusion, though we have not do you
have evidence that there was in fact collusion between Trump
associates and Russia during the campaign not at this time.
Have you seen anything that suggests any collusion between the
Russians and the Trump campaign. Well, there's an a lot
of smoke there, let's put it that way. People that
might have said they were involved, to what extent they

(19:05):
were involved, to what extent the president might have known
about these people or whatever. There's nothing there from that
standpoint that we have seen directly linking our president to
any of that. Did evidence exist of collusion, coordination, conspiracy
between the Trump campaign and Russian state actors at the
time you learned of twenty sixteen efforts. I don't know

(19:29):
whether or not such collusion, that's your term, such collusion existed.
I don't know. The big questions, of course, is is
there any evidence of collusion you have seen yet? Is
there there is a lot of smoke. We haven't smoking
gun at this point, but there is a lot of smoke.
Diane Feinstein has said there's no evidence of collusion, So
collusion between whom? Can you tell us that? I'm not

(19:50):
prepared to say that there's proof you could take to
a jury, but I can't say that there is enough
that we ought to be investigating. At the time you
separated from service in January seventeen, had you seen any
evidence that uh, Donald Trump or any member of his
campaign colluded, conspired to coordinated with Russians, or anyone else

(20:11):
to infiltrade or impact our infrastructure. Um, not beyond what
has been out there open source, and not beyond anything
that I'm sure this committee has already seen and heard
before directly from the intelligence community. Is not the Russian government.

(20:32):
So in other words, let me be clear, Russia did
not give you the Podesta documents or anything from the
d n C. All right, So there you have it
again and again, a year's investigation, no evidence. The one
guy that knows, Julian Assange, Oh, it's not Russia, it's
not a state. And then, of course, you know, we've
got pretty much everybody is saying the same thing, even

(20:53):
including James Clapper. No evidence of Trump Russia collision. But
they don't stop. They don't stop ever, They're never gonna stop.
Their goal. What they want to do is absolutely to
destroy this president at any cost, any way imaginable. You know,
I talked about the forces against the president we got
the deep state, we got a corrupt media, we got democrats.
They don't want to do anything for this president, weak Republicans,

(21:15):
and never Trumpers. In other words, the same people that
hate anybody that likes Trump. He's what we've been dealing
with all weekend silence everybody. The number one censorship group
in the country, the number one group, the most anti
free speech movement in the country. They want a world
without Fox, without Talk Radio, without Rush, without Livin, without Laura,

(21:38):
without Sean Hannity. That's the world they want to live in,
bought and paid for by millionaires and billionaires. Anyway, here
to discuss all of this, Kirk, we be former senior
analysts and as a Bill Benny Benny is with US
rare in studio appearance, former technical director of the n S,
A World Geopolitical and Military Analysism Reporting Group. Welcome both

(22:00):
of you, Bill, It's nice to see in person. How
are you good to see you too? Um? How many
years n S A thirty two is a civilian and
four in the military. Al right, so that's thirty six
years of intelligence. Um. We started out the presidency of
Donald Trump with like a leak a day and one
time on this program. You told me that every email,
every text message, every phone call that we make every

(22:22):
American is being metadata stored. Everyone Isn't that illegal? Is not? Yeah,
but you can't get them into court, which I'm trying
to do. I've got I'm separate. I'm supporting three separate
lawsuits alleging the violation of the Constitution first, fourth, fifth,
and sixth amendments. Yeah. So in other words, we have
to go against our our own government is weaponized intelligence.

(22:46):
So all the time we talked about the weaponization of
the I R S under Obama against key party affiliated groups.
That turned out we got an apology recently a little late. Yeah,
but that that also came out of that data too,
because they showed the entire relationship hip of the Tea
Party with anybody else that was trying to join that
to get the Bible one C. Three, So they I
R S knew that right away and they had direct

(23:07):
access to that. With all that we here, it's like
every time Donald Trump has gotten momentum, there's always something
that throws the momentum off. You are you saying that
they have everything they already want on Trump, They've already
surveiled him to such an extent, like, for example, I
believe that it might may turn out to be the
Fusion GPS Russian propaganda Lyne dossier. Was that used as

(23:27):
a predicate for a FISA warrant? That very well could be.
I don't know for sure, but certainly that is a possibility.
But even beyond that, you're saying there was more surveillance,
Oh yeah, they had. They taken everything that we're saying
and doing everything everything. Do you can you prove that? Well, yeah,
I've I've already got the proof in the in the
documents that I've submitted as Swarren FFI davits to the

(23:49):
appeals courts. All So, basically, we have no freedom and
this is the predicate of a police state what you're describing. Yeah,
I think Gert that captured it pretty well. He based
said that no one is more hopelessly enslaved than those
who falsely believed they're free. That's us Kirk. Do you
agree with everything that Bill is saying? Absolutely? And I

(24:10):
wanted to point out that they're not just storing metadata
showing its content as well, meaning what a good bit
of evidence for that is when the Congress says, Oh,
we're going to forego uh quote about unquote stuff when
we under fight, So we're not going to look at

(24:32):
that anymore. Well, you can't look at about if you
don't have content. Mm hmm. So that's a directed mission.
So what what are we to What are we then
to believe in terms of now that we know it's
a bought and paid for propaganda dossier that they denied

(24:52):
for a year, just stay on the dossier for a second,
what are we to believe? Did they Hillary Clinton knowingly
paid for Russian lies to help influence the American people
and win an election? And now are we able to
prove that? Finally? Well, I think we will be able to.
I think we're coming close. I don't know that we

(25:13):
have the access necessary to do that definitively, but all
the arrows certainly point in that direction. So, Bill, I've
talked to people that are in your crazy spy world community,
and uh, they're very interesting people to me. I look,
I like spy novels, I like Jason Bourne. I think
all that stuff is very cool. And but the sophistication

(25:36):
of intelligence gathering today isn't that way beyond the comprehension
For example, any phone call can be tapped into way
beyond the comprehension of most people. But here's my question,
are you aware is there such a thing as a
deep state? Define it if it is, and what are
they actively trying to accomplish here? Well, I mean my

(25:57):
I would put the intelligence community, all the agencies as
a part of that deep state as long along with
the part of the Congress, the intelligence committees, and I
would also include the vi support And when you say
deep state to find that, well, it's the government behind
the government that's basically pulling the strings, telling the supposed
government where to go and what to do. That's why

(26:18):
I called the I see the the praetorian guard for
the country. They basically determine who the emperor is and
what he does. And Donald Trump broke that cycle. Yes
he did, and that's why there's widespread anger. That's right.
But I've got to imagine, like you, there are plenty
of good people in the intelligence community, because they put
their lives on the line to to spy on our

(26:39):
enemies using the powerful mechanism of intelligence gathering for our benefit. Right,
that's right, Yeah, But they're not the ones in charge
of the agencies, and those are the people who are
really a part of the deep state. Do you have
names of people like for example, we talked about Obama holdovers,
we see the unmasking. Why would Susan Rice and um
whoever what the un and said our power, the power,

(27:02):
Why would they be unmasking Americas? Well, I mean too,
if somebody's collaborating with Wiki leaks, they would certainly want
to know who that is, and so if they unmask them,
they would know an So when I interview or talk
to Julian Osans, they unmasked me, Yeah, just to know
who you are, what you're doing, and also all of
your conversation with it be're on the phone or do
you email them? All all of that data is captured

(27:24):
and reported. But but if I'm talking to you know,
my brother in law, they taking that conversation to yes, yeah,
And the evidence I was accumulated show that they were
using translation devices to automatically do it to try to
get a correct translation of the conversation on the phone,
almost in real time. I hear they can do that
very close. Unbelievable. All right, we'll take a quick break.

(27:44):
We'll come back for one. Shawn as our toll free
telephone number. You want to be a part of the program.
And Congressman Jim Jordan's Matt Gates are going to join us.
They are saying the Attorney General Jeff Sessions needs to
appoint a special counsel or it's time for him to go.
We'll explain straight ahead. Have you seen any evidence that

(28:08):
this dirt, these emails were ever given to the Trump campaign?
Not so far, not so far. Have you ever seen
have you seen any communications uh that suggested that the
Trump campaign wanted them to release them through a different
means because obviously they were ultimately released by Wicky Rolls.
All Right, as we continue Sean Hannity's show, Kirk Web
former senior analysts for the n s A Bill Benny,

(28:30):
who is a former technical director for the n s
A World Geopolitical Military Analysis and Reporting Group. Uh, Kirk,
how many years were you in the n s A
and involved in intelligence gathering? Uh? Thirty two including military service.
All right, so you guys have combined, you know, no offense.
You're both are like a hundred years experience here. Um.

(28:52):
You know, I listened to you and the average American
listens to you. You know, somebody once said to me,
everything that the Obama holdovers the d State ever wanted
against Donald Trump, they already have. Is that true? Yeah,
they sure do. I mean, um, these people have access
to everything, as Bill has been saying, Um, they're in

(29:16):
by virtue of that, and because knowledge is extreme power,
they have people right where they want them. They can
blackmail them, they can threaten them, they can use anything
against them, and the average employee doesn't even know that.
I mean, what's really going on is known by the
higher ups, the higher up managers. They're pulling the strings.

(29:41):
M Well, who are are the manager's current? Are the
managers from the Obama administration? Is this like passed on
from generation to generation. I don't think it's passed on.
I think they're part of the holdover from the Obama
That's not to say though, that there weren't whole it
overs from Bush where the whole thing started. The whole

(30:04):
mass surveillance began under Cheney and Bush. And let me
ask Bill this question, then, then, how does Donald Trump
defend against something as illegal is what you're describing. I
think he really has to get the Department of Justice
moving against these people, start putting something in jail for
the crimes they're committing. If he does that, then others
will see that and start to stop. And he can

(30:25):
do that. He can well, it has to be his
Justice department and they gotta move, which we're gonna talk
about in the next hour. Great to see you in studio.
I appreciate all your work. A little scary you guys.
If you wrote a novel like this, I'm not sure
I'd even believe it. Uh Kirk, Thank you too, my friend.
Hope to see you one day in the studio. Nine
for one. Shawn Tolfrey telephone number, Freedom Caucus Congressman Jim Jordan,

(30:47):
Matt Gates of Florida. They're coming on that, they said,
the weights over. They're calling on the Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Make things happen and get to the bottom of fusion one,
the Russian dossier or frankly, maybe he need to go.
We'll get to that more next Sean Hannity Show. Because
sake jossier was made up, and I understand they paid
a tremendous amount of money and Hillary Clinton always denied it.

(31:12):
The Democrats always denied it. Well, I think the uranium
sale to Russia and the way it was done so underhanded,
with tremendous amounts of money being passed. I actually think
that's Watergate modern age. Uh, this was the Democrats coming
up with an excuse for losing an election. It's an
election that's very hard for a Democrat to lose because

(31:34):
the electoral college is said in such a way that
it's very hard to lose that election for a Democrat.
They lost it. They lost it very badly, at very easily.
I mean you look at the votes. It was three
or six to what to twenty three or something. They
lost it by a lot. They didn't know what to say,
so they made up the whole Russia hoax. Now it's

(31:54):
turning out that the hoax has turned around, and you
look at what's happened with Russia, and you look at
the uranium deal, and you look at the fake So
that's all turned around. We know there was a huge
amount of content being produced in places like Macedonia. We
know that Wiki Leaks, which is basically a front now

(32:15):
for Putin, was more than willing to publish uh stolen
emails from the d n C from John Podesta, and
that then those emails were weaponized with ridiculous, absurd, untrue
stories being churned out on and on. So there's a
lot we know already. You followed this extremely closely. Well,
I started following this back in the summer of because

(32:40):
there was something going on when the d n C
hack happened. You know, we had a huge political crisis
when Republicans physically broke in to the Democratic Party's records
back in the so called Watergate years. This is a
different kind of theft, and it's do you think this
is bigger than the water game? I think it's probably

(33:02):
bigger than Watergate because it is about the future. So
you write in your book that the impact of voter
suppression didn't get enough attention, and there was one study
that found that there were a million lost votes in
the election. So do you think voter suppression costs you
the election? I think it contributed to, uh, the outcome.

(33:24):
I think in a couple of places, most notably Wisconsin,
I think it had a dramatic impact on the outcome.
You said Bob Mueller's zealot is and you were emphatic
about he is. I had experiences with him. What kind
of experience? Well, I had a case and my colleague,
Harvey Civilglade, and I went to see him in Washington,

(33:46):
and we started to talk about prosecutorial and misconduct and
misconduct but the FBI, and he cut us off and
he said, it's a non starter to talk to me
about FBI misconduct or prosecutorial misconduct. It's a non starter.
He doesn't want to hear about that. He is in
the business of protecting the FBI, protecting prosecutors at all costs.

(34:08):
I don't suggest he's unethical, but he's very zealous and
he uses That's a very question. I would argue, then
that's probably what makes him good at his job. Is
that wrong? It makes him effective at his job. But
the job of a prosecutor is to do justice, not
to get as many notches on his belt as possible.

(34:30):
And I think this tactic, you believe that's what he's well,
I think he's Look, he is the special counsel, he
has an enormous budget, he has a man with his
target on his back, the President of the United States.
He's not going to be satisfied until he gets to
the president or people very close And that's the danger
of a special prosecutor. Wow, Alan Dershowitz in that last

(34:51):
comment pretty powerful. You know, Hillary will blame anybody and everybody.
There's no evidence at all that any Republican at anything
to do whatsoever with the d n C leaks of
Wiki leaks and Julian A. Song. I wish somebody Muller
or somebody and besides Dana Rohrbacher and myself would ask
the one guy on the face of this earth what

(35:12):
evidence he has that would show it's not Russia, and
we could put this whole mess to an end. And
the American people deserve the truth after all this, whatever
the truth is, and he's told me multiple times it's
not Russia. Like him, dislike him, doesn't matter. He's the
one that knows. Anyway, Was this all a massive plot
to destroy Donald Trump? Was it actually organized and orchestrated?

(35:37):
In other words, I've always talked about five forces against
the president, the deep state, and of course you've got
liberal Democrats. They don't want the president to succeed. This
president is dealt with nearly a leak a day of
intelligence and then I'm masking and and then leaking intelligence
and and you know, all this stuff happening. Then you've
got a media that hates him. Then you've got Republicans
that hate him. Then you've got never trumpers there at

(35:58):
war with him. Was this a plan that was hatched?
And who did it? Well? That's the thesis of a
brand new book by Ed Klein. It's called The Plot
to Destroy Donald Trump and clin you may remember for
former foreign editor of Newsweek, former editor in chief of
the New York Times magazine, contributing editor of Vanity Fair.
And every time you write a book, all those people

(36:20):
that you used to know, love and like and that
praised your work they hate you. Is there a plot
to destroy? Was this plot hatched in December? Who's saying when?
What evidence do you have? Well? According to a senior
Clinton campaign strategist who worked for Hillary in both two
thousand eight and two thousand sixteen, Hillary Clinton personally authorizer

(36:40):
campaign chairman John Podesta to launch this controversial Donald Trump
Russian Not only that Hillary approved Podesta's decision to pay
for the docier by funding campaign funds, I believe unlawfully.
Now it's interesting because this has just all come out
after a year of lying, and this book had to

(37:00):
go to press. How long ago? Oh, I'd say about
two months ago. I mean, for those that don't know
the publishing business, you knew about this two months ago,
and now we've been able to prove that absolutely pinned
it down. Sean, There's no question in my mind she
paid for the DOS dossier was delivered to the Clinton
campaign by Fusion GPS, that's the opposition research firm, in

(37:22):
the summer of two thousand sixteen, and Hillary read it,
and I'm told by this campaign strategist who was there,
she was thrilled by its relations content. She even bragged
about it, so much so that the people in her
Brooklyn campaign headquarters knew about it. They all knew about
not all the top echelon knew about it. And she said,

(37:45):
and I'm quoting now, according to this campaign strategist, this
is my secret weapon and it's gonna blow Trump out
of the water. That's what she said. And it all
ended up being Hillary d n c Obama bought and
paid for lies, propaganda, misinformation, disinformations right from Russia, from

(38:05):
Kremlin secret intelligence service types who are working to get
this disinformation into our system. And this is the dossier
to claim that Donald Trump was in the ritz. Carlton
with two hookers who were urinating in his bed, all
the s as you know, all of it, and yet
it was repeated all over television. Well even worse than that.

(38:26):
Jennifer Palmieri, who was the communications director of Hillary's campaign
total hack, oh boy, and Brian Fallon, her press secretary,
leaked this stuff to friendly reporters and congressman and this
stuff got into large circulation among the media, which did
not repeat the words because they couldn't prove it, but

(38:49):
the very thesis that there was a collusion took effect,
and that's where it started. If you listen to the left,
they're gonna tell you and their arguments all over TV,
which is what is predicated on a lie, is that
well Republicans and now we know what was the Washington
Free Beacon and what's his name, Paul Springer, a singer,
that that they funded this. That's true. They fund They

(39:12):
didn't fund Steels research, which is a very big distinction.
None of this was Russian related. They were just doing
simple oper research research. Right in your book, you say
that this is a plot, everyone's gonna say you're a
conspiracy theorist, that it was a real plot to destroy Trump.
I assume you're talking about the deep state and other

(39:33):
ways that was initiated in the Obama White House? Does
this have to do with the unmasking? Doesn't have to
do with intelligence. December sixteen, Susan Rice, the National Security Advisor,
was invited to the family quarters of the White House
for a dinner. My source was at this dinner. She
she presented a scheme or a plot or whatever you

(39:53):
wanna call it to unmask the names of Trump aids
and advisors that were gathered when the n s A
was doing electronic intercepts, and to unmask these names. And
then she asked the President for permission to have to
spread these names throughout the intelligence community, with the knowledge
that if she did so, they would leak to the press.

(40:15):
This is where it all began on in this meeting,
and the President sat there and approved it. So so
in other words, when when you hear something the the
U N Ambassador Samantha Power in the course of an
election here now, this I guess predates this meeting with
Susan Rice in in the residence of the White House,
because she was unmasking two and thirty somehows almost an

(40:39):
unmasking a day. And why would the UN ambassador ever
need to do that. They got Susan Rice and Ben
Rhodes and everybody else involved in this. Ben Rhodes is
a big, big player in this unmasking thing because he
was Susan Rice's deputy, but he really in a sense
ran the National Security Council under Susan Rice, and he
was the guy, of course who did the Ran deal

(41:00):
for Obama. He's a real bad actor in this situation.
You claim, and I think on one of the few
in the country that believes and knows and understands what
the deep state means. And there is a deep state,
and the FBI has infiltrated the deep state and I
and I actually print an FBI report in this book
about that. Okay, this is what I want to know.

(41:22):
You have two exclusive FBI reports in the book that
proved the existence a of the deep state that are
working against Trump. I'll get to the ISOs side of
it in a second. How do you have that information
one of those reports specifically saying claim, Well, those reports
say that agents of the FBI, and this is a
written report you know that I actually saw that was

(41:43):
delivered to the Director of the FBI from the field offices.
About two thousand interviews took place, and they infiltrated meetings
in Washington and other places where these rogue elements in
the bureaucracy were being taught and told how to slow
walk the the agenda of the Trump administration, how to

(42:05):
make files disappear, how to erase computer files, and a
lot of this information was being instructed to them by
union organizers. And this took place in a church in Washington,
d C. This is one meeting, So this is a
The FBI has no doubt. They didn't use the word

(42:26):
deep state, but they did describe what is the deep state?
All right, we'll come back. We'll pick it up at
Klein is with us? The plot to destroy Trump? How
many number one best sellers have you had? This will
be the third? This will be very confidently. How many
best sellers have you had? But this one is going
to be number one? I kind of suspect you're right.
All right, we'll take a break more with that client.

(42:47):
We have a lot of ground to cover here. We
may hold them past the bottom of the hour as
we continue Sean Hannity Show. Joining us is Ed Klein,
Number one New York Times best selling authors brand new
book out a plot to destroy Trump. And we were
talking about the deep state and how they're working against Trump. Now,
if we know that this deep state exists and they're
what we're really talking about is weaponizing the powerful tools

(43:10):
of intelligence gathering where they could listen into any conversation
of any American any times. You know, Bill Binny who's
been on his program, says, every call, every email, every
text message is all metadata gathered and secured in some
of these data centers that the government has. And we
know that the intelligence community set out from the very

(43:31):
beginning with John Brennan, who was then the head of
the CIA, to undermine Donald Trump. And Brennan was a terrible,
terrible uh opponent of tomp He He hated the idea
that Donald Trump was trying to make a deal with
the Russians on certain areas where they could cooperate, such
as for instance, Syria. He didn't. And and this is

(43:54):
this one against Brennan's religion, if you want to call
it that, and the religion of the religence community and
this intelligence community has been rogue ever ever since Trump
won the election. Well, to me, that is key because
if if the weaponry of intelligence is turned against the
American people, and it has been. If you're unmasking Americans

(44:16):
for no good reason at all, just for political purposes.
For example, was the FISA warrant based on the phony,
salacious Hillary Clinton Boughton paid for dossier. We don't know,
but we assume that probably, well, I think it was.
That would mean any evidence that they gotten out of
that would be inadmissible in court, wouldn't Why otherwise would
James Comey have briefed Trump and Obama on this dossier

(44:40):
he if he didn't think it was valuable and usable
for intelligence purposes, It wouldn't make sense in a lot
of different ways. All Right, what about the FBI reports
warning that ISIS ties to the anti Trump resistance and
highlighting the danger of domestic terrorism from anti Trump radic

(45:00):
You're saying, basically, this is a propaganda campaign that was
hatched to talking about the ISIS connection. Right, Okay, here's
the FBI what they say. Quote, there is clearly overwhelming
evidence that there are growing ties between US radicals and
the Islamic State, as well as several ISIS offshoots and
splinter groups. This is the greatest challenge to law enforcement

(45:21):
is still a quote since the weather underground and the
Black Black Panther Party and who's connected to this? So
here's what happened. The FBI in the summer of two
thousands of sixteen sent a group of agents to Germany
for the G twenty uh Summit of of Chief what
he called industrialized Countries, And there were a lot of

(45:44):
protests on the street and they discovered that Antifa, these
American violent groups, were taking part in these protests. So
they followed them and what they discovered is that they
had contacts with al Qaeda operatives and ISIS operatives, and
and they went deeper into it with Interpol and others.
They discovered that are locally grown left wing anarchists who

(46:07):
are smashing everybody, you know, property and beating up people,
Occupy Wall Street, Antifa, who those whole groups. We're getting
instructions on how to make bombs and how do you
use from how do you know from how do I know?
From the FBI report? Yeah, and you're printing the report
inside the entire report is printed. All right, We'll take
a break where Ed Klein is with us to plot

(46:28):
to destroy Trump, and he's talking at length about the
intel of the lefts. You know, what is a what
he's saying is a conspiracy to take down the president
of the United States. But when you look at all
that's happened in a year, you know, have we ever
had this level of unmasking, ever have this abuse of
intelligence weaponry? Now we have the admission that, yeah, the

(46:49):
I R S was used as a weapon against the
American people. All scary stuff. We'll take a break. One point,
the Attorney General had directed me not to call it
an investigation but instead to call it a matter, which
confused me and concerned me. But that was one of
the bricks in the load that led me to conclude
I have to step away from the Department if we're
to close this case credibly joining us now Tom Fitton

(47:11):
is with us, and Tommy is the president of a
Judicial Watch, and we've got to send out major kudos,
the kudos to these guys because they have uncovered more
information regarding both the Loretto Lynch tarmac meeting and the
relationship between Mueller's special lieutenant has ever corrupt Andrew Weiseman
and his relationship and praise of Sally Yates, who of

(47:34):
course defied the President's orders as an Obama holdover, and
I'm so in awe, so proud of you. Wiseman has
now caught sending to Yates, which it shows, just like
in the case of this guy Peter Struck, that they
have political agendas and it's anti Trump and it's pro Hillary. Well,
how can these piece of people possibly be involved in

(47:56):
these investigations? It is so corrupt. Tom fittonjoins us right now,
how are you, sir, Sean gonna be with you? Dam
thank you? All right? I want you to explain in
detail the freedom of information that request. If I'm not mistaken,
I think you've filed us back in May of this year.
You finally got ahold of it. A couple of smoking

(48:17):
guns come out of this. Among them Andrew Weissman, who
I have explained in great detail on this program, you know,
was the guy in the Anderson Accounting and Ron Merrill
Lynch cases. And how he is praising the woman that
defied the president and an Obama hold over. You know,
it's interesting Attorney General Acting Atorney General Sallyates the Obama

(48:39):
hold over that President Trump kept for two and a
half weeks until she broke all the rules and refused
to enforce his uh, his temporary immigration ban from terrorists countries.
H We thought it'd be interesting to get her emails
from the time she was acting Attorney Generald. I think
two and a half weeks worth of emails. Of course,
men get them. We had to sue back in May,

(49:02):
and we just got them, and they show emails from
various Justice Department officials praising her. And what stood out
among those emails was this email from Andrew Weissman, which
you quoted earlier, talking about how she was He was
in awe of her. Well, you know this guy, by
the way, he was head of the Criminal fraud section
of the Justice Department, probably still is technically while he's

(49:23):
over there working for Mr Mueller, and he is Mr
Mueller's top deputy. I mean, it was prosecution man, but
this is a guy behind it. Listen. Remember, he was
accused of making up laws that don't exist. He was
accused of holding exculpatory evidence in the case of those
poor Meryl guys that ended up going to jail for

(49:43):
almost a year, and it turns out they did nothing,
and the Supreme Court scorched him nine to zero, as
did the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. But he's also
now haven't we now have an email showing that he
was praising a government soles for breaking the rules and
standing against President Trump's enforcement of the rule of law.

(50:05):
So this guy doesn't want to follow the rules. He
admits it in the email. This guy is abusively biased.
You cannot have political partisans And this is my point
from the beginning, and I had no idea how right
I was. And that is why is Muller appointing people
that only donate to Obama Clinton in the d n C.
You know, why did he pick somebody like Weiseman with

(50:28):
his atrocious record? And then we find out he picks
Peter Struck and Peter Struck's girlfriend and they have a
pro Hillary anti Trump bias. And then you've got this
guy praising Sally Yates. And one has to ask how
politicized the criminal justice system is If these are the
people that Mueller has appointed, and if they were not

(50:49):
driven politically and ideologically from the get go, well, that's right.
I think the deep state is running our government. And
when Miller comes in, any special council comes in, he
takes jesus As from the FBI to topic sal onto
the FBI and the Justice Department, and they don't believe
in what the President is trying to accomplish. And I
have a right to believe that as u S citizens,

(51:10):
but they're not allowed to bring those us to their job.
They're supposed to enforce the role law in a neutral way,
and they've demonstrated through these emails that are not willing
to do that, praising lawlessness, attacking President Trump wise running
through office, while praising Hillary Clinton in the case of
prederstruck while he's supposed to be investigating her. This is
strike two for Mr Mueller, and I ontly believe that

(51:30):
he's out of control. His office is compromised, and it
needs to be shut down. We can't trust what this
at what this is Special Council is going to do.
Even if you're a leftist, you should want to shut
it down because it's so compromised. You're not going to
get a fair hearing or a fair result. Even if
you don't believe that uh Mueller or the Russia collusion

(51:51):
scandal is a unicorn as we believe. Yeah, well, listen,
I'm gonna tell you from my perspective. Well, let me
first go on to The other news is that you
were able to pick up here um and I did
like your line that you felt that the FBI probe
of Hillary's emails and Mueller's investigation of Trump is irredeemably compromised.
One of the things that we've now learned this week

(52:12):
is that come and Struck and others that they had
exonerated Hillary in every way every way imaginable before they
even did the full investigation. And your group Judicial Watch
UH sued the FEDS to release the documents pertaining to
the former Attorney General Loretta Lynch's tarmac meeting with Bill
Clinton just days before she made her decision as it

(52:35):
relates to Hillary Clinton and exonerated her, which was highly
and totally inappropriate, and how she lectured and Comey obeyed.
I guess, you know, the order not to call it
an investigation but to call it a matter. And of
course then the drafting of this took away the legal
language of gross negligence to extreme carelessness. But anyway, it

(52:56):
took what six weeks after the Justice Department, after the
ruling the Justice Department of Turner of the twenty nine pages, well,
I don't think they turned out to be particularly good
for you. Now, it's really outrageous. First of all those pages,
we caught them redheaded, red handed, hiding because the FBI
told us initially they looked for records, who couldn't find any.
But we caught them because the Justice Department told us

(53:16):
they had records with the FBI. So they look what
we found and the documents showed what they were trying
to hide. Uh. The emails show that they were more
concerned about a whistleblower in the local Phoenix Police department
who told a reporter about the meeting and details about
how it was coordinated. The Clinton Lynch meeting needed to

(53:37):
be coordinated, was not just coincidental because of the security
details involved, and they were more concerned about that league
than the meeting itself. No emails about the meeting itself.
And they're talking about getting the leaker and stemming firmer
damage from further disclosures. This is what your FBI was
doing last year as it was faced with this crisis

(53:58):
that he's in, the Attorney General General Lynch said at
the time cast a shadow over the investigation going after
the leaker. Well, we learned a lot this week. First,
we learned about this guy Peter Struck that we learned
about Peter Struck's girlfriend who was also working for Mueller. Uh.
Then it was your revelation about Andrew Weissman. Now we're
hearing today about you know, Jennie Ray, who was a

(54:21):
part of I guess, the law firm where where Mueller worked, which,
by the way of their donation dollars went to Democrats.
But anyway, Ray was also the personal attorney for Obama's
deputy National Security advisor Ben Rhodes. And her name was
atop this bombshell report of George Papadopolis striking a plea
agreement with Mueller's special counsel. And she left the law firm. Uh,

(54:46):
and you know, to to work on this Russia cases.
A lot of other people did. They must have all
been led to believe that their careers were gonna giving
up millions of dollars, that their careers were gonna soar
because they were gonna, you know, doubled down and basically
under the election of sen by taking down the president.

(55:06):
And it didn't matter that it was a team of
partisan hacks doing it. Who is running the Justice Department
nominally it's supposed to be running the Mueller investigation. He's
answered the Mueller. We can complain all we want about Mueller,
and we're right to complain. But in the the end
of the day, but for shutting him down, Rosenstein said,
I'm satisfied today with with Mueller's work on the Russia probe. Well,

(55:30):
the President should intervene and tell Mr Rosenstein, as his boss,
the American people aren't satisfied. And you need to assure
that that operation is being run ethically, and if you can't,
you need to shut it down and replace the personnel.
We cannot leave the Justice Department to the bureaucrats. And
Rod Rosenstein maybe a nice man, but he's one of
the establishments and he's not going to do the right

(55:52):
thing unless pushed. Well, I mean, and it raises a
question that I was discussing earlier today with my my
good friend and colleague Greg Jared, and that is, you know,
he says, Muller needs to go. Everybody needs to go.
We need to start all over with another special counsel.
And my argument is, well, for crying out loud the
most partisan people for a year, they couldn't find any

(56:14):
evidence of Trump Russia collusion. Now we're going to spend
another boatload of money and another year of our lives
hearing over and over again from this corrupt, fake news
media about Trump Russia collusion when we've got no evidence,
when you have the biggest hit people on the job
and they couldn't, we don't need we don't need a
special councel to prosecute mortgage fraud. And we might need

(56:37):
a special counsel to investigate what the special counsel was
doing in terms of abusing General Flynn. But beyond that,
you're right, there's nothing to be investigated. And to read,
there are issues with people filing foreign agent registration forms
late and such. That's something a low level prosecutor and
Justice Department can handle out of his back pocket. I
gotta take a break. When we come back Judicial Watch

(56:57):
President Tom Fitton. He's the one that the discovered Andrew
Weissman and of course his bias against Donald Trump. We
continue with Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. Of course he
has been the one that has filed all these Freedom
of Information Act requests and he discovered that Andrew Weisman is,
in fact, just like this guy Peter Struck, somebody that

(57:18):
loves Clinton and is not a fan of Donald Trump's
one of the things that I really admire about you
and your group, And the same with the A, C,
L J and J Seculars Group, doesn't the same with
Marco Levin's group Landmark Legal Foundation. I mean, all of
you guys do phenomenal work. Um, you guys have focused
a lot on on getting documents that the government is
constantly trying to hide through Freedom of Information Act requests.

(57:42):
But I know for a fact that you guys have
that they delay, and they obfuscate, and they obstruct, and
then you get back redacted you know, emails and redacted
information that are meaningless because they really don't want us
to have, you know, a full and complete knowledge of
who they are and what they're actually doing. Well, that's true,
and what's most is concerning it's still happening, especially with

(58:05):
the Clinton email issue. You've got this Justice Department, this
State Department, still protecting and defending Hillary Clinton, falling the
release of emails dat as, you know, redacting everything. They
don't want us to go forward in any aggressive way
over the Clinton email manner. It's it's um, it's really
disturbing to see that the administration of a president elected

(58:27):
to drain the swamps. Appointees are continuing to protect one
of the chief examples of the swamp things, which is
Hillary Clinton's approach to the rule of law, which was
undermine it. Doesn't this now mean because the fix was
in that if we have equal justice under the law
of laws matter. Doesn't it mean that they've got to
start from scratch on one important issue. If Comey and

(58:50):
Struck and all these anti Trump pro Hillary people were
in charge of the investigation into the email SERVERCE scandal,
doesn't this now warrant because I know laws were broken.
We know law We know that classified top secret sas
special Access program information that the highest level of of confidentiality.
We know that she had it on this private server

(59:12):
in a mom and pop shop bathroom. We know she
destroyed such materials, also a crime. We know that she
used acid wash and bleach bit and deleted the emails.
We know they busted up these devices with hammers, which
to me is clear obstruction of justice. You know, I
was asking Alan Dershowitz about this last night. You have
to have intent. Well, if you use bleach bit and

(59:35):
you you you bust up devices and and you delete
the emails, that tells me there's motive because those emails
were subpoened. Look, we started off the segment talking about
the FBI agent who was a Hillary fan and an
anti trumpeter he was running the Clinton investigation. If that

(59:57):
doesn't tell you it's been compromised, i'd what other evidence
do we need? It needs to be reopened, we need
and I don't know if we need a special counsel
per se, but if we're gonna have a special council,
let's be sure it's under the control of elected or
appointed officials, subject to confirmation by the Senate, and the
Attorney General or his designation should appoint a special counsel,

(01:00:18):
bringing the U S Attorney and start over again with
the Clipton email scandal investigation. Obviously they didn't do an investigation,
you know, And that time raises questions about Comey. I mean,
is that by definition, and I know you've got a
team of lawyers over a judicial watch. If if James
Comey and others had no intention to doing their job

(01:00:39):
from the get go and the fix was in, isn't
that in and of itself an obstruction of justice case? Well?
You know, maybe what I think is interesting is that
come illegally leaked information to The New York Times. It
looks like in order to get this special counsel appointed thing,
he left with documents, some of which may have been classified.

(01:01:04):
It just reeks of corruption inside it. Just I, honor,
I am flabbergasted. This is happening in the United States
of America. You know it's I don't know. Frankly, forget
about the investigations being redeemable. I don't know if the
SBI is an agency, is redeemable after what its leadership
over the last several years has done to it. No mind.

(01:01:25):
I know there are a lot of agents there who
are great, but the leadership is off the rails, out
of control and oblivious to the damaged sound of the institution.
And I don't know if the institution give you reformed
and restored. I really don't. All right, well, I really
applaud the work you're doing. Uh, thank you so much.
Tom Fitton is the president of Judicial Watch. Thank you

(01:01:47):
Tom for being with us. We got our news round up,
information overload coming when we come back. Congressman Big Arizona
Gates of Florida, Louis Gormer to Texas, Uh Ainsley, your
heart stops by, and uh, we'll talk to her about
all those breaking news and much more. Nine one, Shawn,
if you want to be a part of the program.
We're in the sewer, the swamp that has our nation's capital, Washington,

(01:02:08):
d C. And we'll continue. You know, I don't get
credit for one thing. It always bothered me. I spent
a tiny fraction of what she spent, and we want
you know, the old days, if you spend less and
you win, that's a good thing. Oh, but here you
don't get any credit for it. We spent twenty five
or thirty. She was at what number, two point two billion?
I understand two point two billion. Do you think do

(01:02:31):
you think those consultants made a couple of bucks on
that election? Didn't? He spent twelve point four million on
a Dassier That was a total phony, twelve point four million. Boy. So,
so we spent a tiny fraction, think of it, a
tiny fraction of the money, and we won. But we
won because of people like you. And about seven million

(01:02:53):
tweets with political content shared just before and just after
the election, about one in five tweets, twenty percent of
them came from accounts trace back to Russia. Wiki leagues
and junk news sources, and the researchers say, and that's
what the shading is about here. They were disproportionately targeted
to some Swain states. That's what we're actually correcting a
story that we have been reporting throughout the day today

(01:03:15):
about an email that was sent to the Trump campaign
to then candidate Trump Donald Trump Jr. UH and others
during the heat of the campaign season. This email included
a decryption key and also UH in something a link
to where they could access some of these hacked Wiki
League documents from the Democratic National Committee. Now, we've been

(01:03:36):
reporting that this email came on September fourth, that was
before some of these documents were publicly available, but we
have just received obtained a copy of this email UH
and instead we now learned that this uh, this email
was on September fourteen, so that is ten days later
than what we originally reported earlier today. And and this

(01:04:00):
is appears to has changed the understanding of this story
because initially it seen perhaps they were being offered access
to documents that were not yet publicly available. But in
this email from an individual named Michael Ericson, they do
direct the Trump campaign to some publicly available documents hacked

(01:04:21):
documents from Wiki licks as well as from the former
Secretary of State Colin Powell, saying that those documents are
indeed available now. Our initial reporting on that September four
date was based on two sources who had seen this
this email, but that information was incorrect now based on
the copy of the email that we have obtained this afternoon,

(01:04:41):
So so Brooke. It just shows that perhaps the initial
understanding of what this email was perhaps is not as
significant as what we know now. Based on this email,
we looks more fake news. Shouldn't be a shock Our
two Sean Hannity Show One Sean is our toll free
telephone number. You want be a part of the program.
I don't think now. It's every day pretty much the

(01:05:04):
the fake news industry, the destroy Trump media comes out
with something wrong the president. Yeah, right, he didn't spend
as much money as the Democrats are Hillary Clinton, but
it was Hillary's campaign. They are the ones that paid
Fusion GPS, that paid Christopher Steele for the phony, lying
Russian propaganda dossier that was cited so often in the campaign.

(01:05:24):
It was designed to pay for it so they could
influence you. The American people during the election and the
lead up of the election, and it's something we need
to pay attention to. Greg Jarrett has written a column
saying Robert Muller and his politically biased team of prosecutors
need to go. We have gone through in great detail
who these people are Democratic donors, and we learned a

(01:05:46):
lot last week about people like Peter Struck, a guy
that is sending texts that he loves Hillary hates Donald Trump.
And Peter Struck is up to his eyeballs and everything
the Clinton email server scandal, the dossier. He's there interviewing
share World Mills and Uma Aberdeen and Hillary Clinton and
General Michael Flynn, and yet he's got a built in

(01:06:06):
bias Andrew Weissman, you know, because of his tactics and
and unethical practices. All tens of thousands of people lost
their jobs at Anderson Accounting when he was involved in
that case with Enron, and then of course a number
of Merrill Lynch executives went to jail and two decisions
go against him that were massive nine zero. The U. S.
Supreme Court ruled against him, and the Fifth Circuit Court

(01:06:28):
of Appeals showed he was wrong. He has a history
of not passing on exculpatory evidence, making up laws, and
other unethical behavior anyway, joining us to go through all
of this. Gregg Jared is with us Fox News legal analysts,
Sidney Powell, federal appellate attorney, former federal prosecutor, author of
the book License to Lie. Thank you all, Let's start
with you. Greg Um. I don't even know where to

(01:06:50):
begin here, but between the media going off and telling
one lie after another breathlessly, hysterically, and then having a
pull back a day after day, and this team that
Mueller has put together, it's I can't believe it's happening
in our country. Mueller sabotaged the credibility of his own investigation,
and he has only himself to blame for what might

(01:07:12):
have been a probe that was viewed with trust and
confidence by the American people. But Muller chose to assemble
the team of incredibly biased people to go after Donald
Trump to try to undo the election and remove the president. Look,
there are plenty of qualified, skilled lawyers across America who

(01:07:32):
do not have a political acts to grind. Mueller should
have chosen them. Instead, he chooses people like Weisseman, who
was there celebrating the night Hillary Clinton was supposed to
win at the Javit Center and was defeated. He hires
Genie Ray, who once represented Hillary Clinton in her email scandal. Uh.
And then of course Peter Struck. Is Peter Struck the

(01:07:54):
only FBI agent in America? How is it possible that
this one god was the lead investigator in both the
coming investigation of Clinton and the Mueller investigation of Trump
with incredible now declared bias. It's there the evidence, who's there?
And he's been kicked off the case? How do we
get this entirely possible that Struck as the person who

(01:08:17):
presented the fiz of warrant to the fife the court.
Have we confirmed now that the fies of warrant that
they used the information that Hillary Clinton and Hillary's d
n C she was running in? According to Donna Brazil,
do we now know if that dossier for a certainty
was used to get a warrant against Donald Trump the
candidate and or Donald Trump the president elect and maybe

(01:08:39):
even as president. Do we know if that was used
in that case? Nobody's seen the vice of warrant application,
at least nobody that I know of, But I think
they've admitted to some extent that the dossier formed some
sort of basis for it. Congressman Jordan's questioning of Christopher
Ray the other day was very telling, mainly in it

(01:09:00):
Mr Ray would not answer. And one thing I'd like
to point out too, is that Mr Ray was actually
Wiseman's supposed supervisor in the Department of Justice overseeing the
in Ron Task Force investigation after two thousand and three,
when Mr Wiseman sent the four Meryl Lynch executives to
prison on an indictment that didn't even state a federal offense,

(01:09:22):
while he hid the evidence that showed they were innocent.
You know, I just I just read all of them.
I'm having a hard time because a lot of your book,
License to Lie, is about Andrew Weissman. It's a chapter
in verse about how unethical this guy is. Why would
Robert Muller, knowing this background, choose this individual because he
likes him and trust him, and that's the kind of

(01:09:43):
activity he wants conducted in this case. That's the only
possible reason the book has been out since. I didn't
write this book to help President Trump. I wrote it
to sound the alarm because of what I've seen as
a practicing lawyer. I never intended to be an author,
So the bottom line always so agreedious. I had to
write it. Basically, You've got Mueller's team covering for Clinton

(01:10:05):
and that means comey, you know, writing an exoneration before
he investigates the email server scandal and then persecuting every
Trump associate with with varying standards of intensity. All these
guys are thick as thieves. They they have been together
and work together. They've been friends and allies and partners.
Wiseman rosen Stein, Mueller, Comey, it is bewildering to me

(01:10:29):
that the Department of Justice would allow this to unfold.
In Congress needs to take action. They need to put
a stop to this, and Jeff Sessions in particular needs
to stand up and stay in order to restore integrity.
I'm stepping in. I'm going to unrecuse myself to reorder this,
and then I'll recuse myself again. But he needs to

(01:10:51):
replace Mueller and the team of partisans that Mueller has
put together and replaced them with people who are rose
in Stein, who made the appointment because of the recusal
of the Jeff Sessions. He said, he's he's happy with
the way Mueller's conducting this investigation. What does that tell you?
I tell you he's happy with the indictments so far

(01:11:13):
and the guilty please. And Rosenstein likely knows that these
guys are going after the president to undo the election,
so of course he's tickled pink that it's going that way. Sydney,
let's talk about the ahead. Rosenstein, Muller, Weisseman, and Comey
go back twenty to thirty years together a lot. Yeah,

(01:11:35):
you brought up a case once, and that was the
Department Departmental Disciplinary Committee for the first Department New York
Bronx Counties. And uh, there's a whole background about the
Enron task force and the Meryl executives and all of
the people from Anderson accounting some may five thousand people
I believe lost their jobs there. What was your involvement

(01:11:58):
in that? Was co author of the grievance filed with
the New York Bar against Andrew Wiseman. Bill Hoads, one
of the leading legal ethics experts in the country, took
the laboring oar and filing the grievance, and he did
at pro bono because we were both so outraged by
the prosecutorials miss conduct we saw in the Meryle Lynch case.

(01:12:18):
And what was the outcome of that. Oh, you're gonna
love this, Sean. The Department of Justice was defending Mr
Wiseman on the grievance because he was Muller's general counsel
at the FBI at the time. The New York Bar,
without even telling us, held it for about four months,
then sent it to Department of Justice Office of Professional

(01:12:39):
Responsibility to decide the grievance. So the same entity essentially
defending Wiseman decided that he had committed no wrong. Did
you see the report this weekend Greg Jared about Fusion
GPS trying to tie Donald Trump through the dossier and
other means to this guy Epstein, uh and as Orgy
Island mess. Did you see that? I did see it, Yeah,

(01:13:01):
Rowan Scarborough. The Washington Times has a piece out on
it today. Yeah. Look, um, Fusion GPS and and Simpson
who helped fund it through the Hillary Clinton campaign and
the d n c UH and Christopher Steele. I mean,
all of this violates federal criminal statutes. Uh. You know,

(01:13:22):
you cannot give money to a foreign national during the
course of a political campaign. Uh. And and why is
it that there isn't a Department of Justice investigation into that.
I'm hoping that there is and they're simply keeping its secret.
There's another Department of Justice connection to this whole thing, too,
and that's Deputy Assistant Attorney General Bruce Orr, who was

(01:13:46):
recently demoted within the Department of Justice because he had
met with and has ties the Fusion GPS and that
Trump Dostier and why he wasn't fired instead of demoted
is beyond my comprehension. It said, Oh, he had his
office four doors down from Rosenstein. Stay right there will
continue Sydney Powell, Greg Jarrett, nine for one, Shawn, if
you want to be a part of the pasty, continued

(01:14:06):
Greg Jarrett and Sydney Poweller with us. All right, so
we're both all three of us seem to agree that
there's nothing but a group of If you talk about
Bruce Or and you talk about Lisa Page, and it's
Peter Struck and Jennie Ray, and you talk about all
these people and Weissman, Uh, straight on down the line.
You know, I was watching all weekend and the coverage
seems to be oh, the president's defenders are out there

(01:14:29):
trying to discredit the Special Counsel, and my argument, Sydney,
is they he discredited himself by putting in a team
of people that are abusively biased. He did. These are
all people with very strong and deep ties to the
Clinton campaign, and there is no way anyone can have
any confidence in the veracity of what comes out of

(01:14:50):
this investigation. The way it's headed, Here's what I think happened.
It led by Peter Struck, the FBI agent who who
you know, apparently made in credibly disparaging remarks about the
President and correspondingly supportive comments about Hillary Clinton. He decided
that if Hillary Clinton were indicted as she should be
for the email scandal and the Espionage Act, she wouldn't

(01:15:13):
be president of Donald Trump would So he and others
set about conjuring out of their away to exonerate her.
And they went about and they accomplished it. It made
no sense to any lawyer in America, but they did it.
And then when she didn't once held on to the
then she didn't win. That now means that we didn't
have a fair investigations. So it should start again, shouldn't

(01:15:36):
The statue of limitations has not run yet, and they
need to move very quickly to reopen and re examine
the evidence. The evidence is there, a fair minded lawyer
would say, all right, let's give it to a grand jury.
So when she didn't win on election night, the same
people then decided, out of retribution and revenge, that they

(01:15:59):
are going to do whatever they can to kick Donald
Trump out of office. And if that means manufacturing crimes
where crimes don't exist, so be it. And that appears
to be what they're doing Sydney. There's irrefutable public proof
that Hillary Clinton committed to one thousand one violation, which
is what they've charged General Flynn with and what they
charged Mr Papadopoulos with. It's in her testimony to Congress

(01:16:22):
where she said there was no classified material on her server.
I mean their YouTube clips of it that people have tweeted.
I mean, it's evidence is right there. So there has
never been a fair investigation of the Clinton situation, and
there's nothing fair about the investigation that's going on now.
It's very troubling. I told somebody the other day, it's
not we're not just playing whack a male. We're playing

(01:16:43):
whack of hydra these days. Well, what how do you
untangle this mess? Greg? Well, I think the only way
to do it is to have Attorney General Sessions bringing
a new special counsel and a new team of prosecutors
free of conflicts of interest, who will conduct a fair,
an unbiased, objective investigation. Justice requires it, and you cannot

(01:17:06):
expect Rod Rosenstein, who's already deeply conflicted, to do it.
He is the acting Attorney General and the Trump Russia investigation.
He needs to be removed. Mueller needs to be removed. Weissman,
Genie Ray, Aaron zebli Uh, Peter Struck has already been
Reomord Andrew Weissman, all of them need to be been

(01:17:28):
removed from the investigation. He should be removed from the FBI.
I agree, all right. I want to thank you both
for helping us go where no one else apparently a
media wants to go, and that's towards the truth and
fighting for equal justice under the law. Thank you, Sidney,
We appreciate it. Greg. We'll see you tonight on Hanniday
nine Eastern. When we come back. We have Patrick Pool,

(01:17:50):
National Correspondent, PJ Media, lieutenant retired lieutenant with the n
Y p d. Bill McGarty is with us eight nine
four one. Shaun is another. We'll take a quick break,
we'll come back, we'll continue straight up. My new book
Through Your Eyes is now on store shelves and I
am donating a portion of the proceeds to Folds of Honor,
which is an organization that provides scholarships and assistance to

(01:18:13):
the spouses and children of fallen soldiers. Thank you, Folds
of Honor. My name is Scarlina get. I am from Opasso, Texas.
I'm currently attending the University of Texas. That will pass
like to thank Folds of Honor for awarding me with
the scholarship. I'm from San Antonio, Texas and I'm attending
Bailey University as a biology major. My father served twenty
years in the United States Armies of Green Beret. He's disabled.

(01:18:36):
I have to Thankfulds Honor again for allowing me to
attend take same university and fill my dream. Thank you.
Letuls say it's a group effort because we head into
the holidays. It's a happy time for many of us,
but the realities are there over one million dependents in
this country, so spouses and children who've had some money
killed or disabled to fitting our freedoms. And that's why
we're here on the on the couch today and we're

(01:18:57):
brought together to UM to ensure we can bring a
light of open to an inherently, you know, very dark situation.
But as Americans say, thank you for our freedoms, thank
you so much for what you're doing for our fallen
soldiers and their kids. And I thought when I wrote
children's but when I'm writing the children's books, I want
to do something for not only our military, but for kids.
So that's the book. And Major Dan take a look

(01:19:20):
at this, oh is donating fifty thousand dollars to Folds
of Honor. That's coming out of my paycheck because so
many people out there have bought the book, and a
portion of the proceeds is going to your your organization.
You guys know, I'm not speechless very often, UM, but unbelievable,

(01:19:40):
and more importantly, that's UM. That's ten lives of children
that will go to school. Literally this year, UM, we
had an amazing year at folds UM. We were almost
sixteen million dollars in scholarships. We have millions and unfunded
requests from families and you can't help but think about
the title to your book through your Alright, twenty three

(01:20:01):
now till the top of the hour. Nine for one
Seawan is our toll free number. You want to be
a part of the program. And I was actually watching
Fox and Friends this morning and I saw this whole
thing unfold. And as you know, we have we have
associated ourselves here on this program with many military charities.
The Freedom Alliance, they have a similar thing where they
give scholarships to the children of fallen heroes or severely

(01:20:24):
injured heroes. Uh, and they've done an amazing job. Colonel
north And and his group over the years have been fantastic.
Another group that I'm really proud to be associated with
is building homes for heroes, those that are severely injured.
I've met so many of these guys. They got a
new home that they're gonna be unveiling down in Florida

(01:20:44):
this month of December coming up, and I'm gonna try
and make it down there if I can, and and
be there for the opening of the house, because these
homes are built specifically for the for the injuries that
these brave men and women have. And I was watching
this today and I'm thinking, all right, well, Christmas is
coming up, and uh, Ainsley Earhart, she's one of the
co hosts of Fox and Friends. She's offering up a

(01:21:05):
part of her the money she's made from our number
one best selling New York Times book Through Your Eyes,
My Child's Gift to Me. She's given now fifty thou
dollars to Folds of Honor. And I saw Major Dan Rooney,
he's the CEO and founder of Folds of Honor, and
I welcome you both to the program. Ainsley, welcome back,
and Dan, it's an honor to see you. By the way,

(01:21:26):
I think you could fill in for Brian or Steve anything.
I thought you did great today. Not Ainslie though, No,
you couldn't fill in for as. Nobody can fill in
for as that she is one of a kind. Well
number one. I was kind of inspired by it because
you actually put together a montage of the kids that
are benefiting from the scholarships. And I know you used
examples in Ainslie's home state original home state of South Carolina. Yeah,

(01:21:50):
affirmative so um in Ainslie's book obviously funded ten scholarships,
and we wanted to show her the impact she was
having you know, over half a million dollars deployed this
year and in this day to South Carolina, And um,
what we do is is real, and the stories of
the lives that are impacted are real. And we're really
proud to obviously have Ainslie and her amazing new book
supporting us. You know, it's sad in so many ways.

(01:22:11):
And now I know we've made changes at the Department
of Veterans Affairs. I mean, we know how atrocious the
v A hospitals have been and and it's frankly been
nothing but outright corruption. Um. And I was watching this
and and Ainsley, maybe you can pick it up from here.
You guys actually challenge the your audience this morning, and
I thought I I wanted to kind of add to

(01:22:33):
it a little bit if we can't hear on the radio,
and you asked people, I think it was what seventeen
dollars a month? Am I getting up right? Yes, it's
thirteen dollars a month. And why thirteen or thirteen folds
that bring the flag to its triangle shape? And we
challenge people if they became a wingman and pledged thirteen
dollars a month of folds of honor that we would
send them. Uh, Ainslie's book Through Your Eyes, and we've

(01:22:53):
had over three hundred. That's what it's gonna take for
me to get a copy of the book. I never
got a copy for Ainsley our Hearts New book, but
I'll give you a copy Son. But all right, So
what drew you Ainsley to this charity? What? What was it?
I mean, there's there's a lot of good charities, and
I know actually you helped over a couple of Christmas
Is when we did homes for building Homes for Heroes. Um,

(01:23:16):
what was it about Bowls of Honor that drew you in?
You know you donated all those money. I was really
torn because I love Freedom Alliance. Of course I love
building homes for Heroes. We've been involved, Sean and I
have with that charity for a very long time. Many
of the anchors at Fox have been involved in that
because Andy Tugol lost so many people that he loved
in nine eleven and he gave up his job on
Wall Street to start building homes for these severely hintr veterans.

(01:23:40):
And I met one guy. I did a story and
he was burned on sixty or seventy of his body
and his his story truly changed my life, I said,
a few last few days down in Florida with his family,
and his parents left New York, left everything behind to
go be with their son, and they built a house
and their son's honor down there. So I love that organization,
and that was tough. But I was writing children's books

(01:24:01):
and I went in to I wanted it to be
a charity that involved in military but still involved children.
And so I believe there isn't a coincidence. I believe
that God puts people in my life, my life, and
all of our lives at the right moment. So I
was praying about it and doing my research, and I
just asked God to send me the right charity. And

(01:24:21):
so our executive producer on Boxing Fronts, Gavin Hadden, said,
have you heard of Folds of Honor? And he said,
one of my really good friends and they've since become
best friends. Dan Rooney just started this organization. It's now
a platinum it's a platinum rated organization, which means they
give the majority more than what is it and you
give ninety percent of your of your proceeds back into

(01:24:43):
the organization, back to scholarship. Historical leaning. So we're right
about ninety cents of every dollar going back to fund
scholarship programs. That's amazing. That's a that's a really high
rate and really high and it's very expensive to do this.
Um And and by the way, congrats on this is
your second book. Child's in a series now through your eyes,
my child's gift to me, um. And you do give

(01:25:05):
the folds of honor with every book that you're selling.
And uh, but I watched this and it made me
today watching the whole thing because I do give to
these other charities. Why don't you tell us, Dan, how
did you come up with this concept? Because there are
thirteen folds which I by the way, I couldn't do it. Um.
But I I love when when you see troops with

(01:25:26):
reverence fold our flag. That's why I was so angry
at the NFL this year. But not to make a
political drag you into my mess, but I'm like, don't
take it. Did too many men of fault blood and
died fighting under that flag? Yeah, Sean. And and I'm
still in the fight. And so I'm a fighter pilot
in three D first Fighter Squadron, and I'll leave New
York City tomorrow morning, and I'll be in a fighter
get going supersonic on Saturday. And so from my perspective,

(01:25:49):
and I'm the father of five daughters, and I think
where you're going? Um, I know where I'm going this weekend.
You're not gonna tell me where you're going. No, I
can tell you what I have to kill you? What?
Too many people love you to do that? What do
you actually? How fast do you fly? We get up
over the speed of sound? So what's that like? Sonic
boom as we call it? Look at look at my hair?

(01:26:12):
I have? I have a face for radio. Wait a minute,
is my buddy John told me your hair is tan?
You got a tan on the top of your head.
So listen. I've always thought having a shaved head makes
you look tough. And a lot of my martial artist
friends they have they do that on purpose. It's worth
at least a couple of extra knots in a fighter jet,
absolutely having a shaved head. But uh, But on a
serious note, I think what you should do is take

(01:26:33):
Ainslee up there with you and and let her go
through the sonic boom. I would love to take Ainsley
and there there is no Sonic Boom and we can
film it and we'll put it on in a handity
on my program. Well, let's do it. It's started here, Ainsley.
Are you up for that? Dan? I will do it.
I will do it. It is I am. I'm a
mom now, so it makes you a little nervous. I

(01:26:54):
will do it. But Sean doesn't to me. When I
worked for his show and he made me jump out
of an airplane twice, has not really made me. But
I did it for his show, jumped out of the
airplane flights and flew in an f fIF scene. Well,
by the way, I think even a worse assignment was
sending you down a spring break for three summers in
a row one I think when you were expecting your baby.

(01:27:14):
I know he loves that story. Yeah, I have to
go down to screen break to set some of those
gifts straight because they were doing some bad things. Yeah,
and she's trying off camera. Well just see the outtakes.
You say, no, listen, you can't be doing this. You
gotta behave This is all gonna come back later in
your future, which seawn. Dan has five girls. He would
appreciate it if I did that. I know I've got

(01:27:36):
a daughter. I'm not My daughter asked me to go
to spring break. The answer is hell, no, it's not
gonna happen. Now I will listen. I can't sign up
for the thirteen dollars a month. I'm gonna tell you
why because I don't like to write a lot of checks.
So I'm just gonna write you one check that will
cover me for a few years. Okay, I and we'd
be honored to pay it forward. But I know that
that our audience loves what you guys do. It's very

(01:27:59):
important we don't take as good care of our military
as we should. And I was watching this morning and frankly,
Ainslie's fifty dollar donation inspired me. What can we what
can we do? What couldn people do? How can they
sign up with this thirteen dollars a month and they
can visit Folds of Honor dot org uh and become
a wingman for thirteen dollars a month and you don't

(01:28:19):
have to write a check. We'll just hit your credit
card um every month. And uh, those that signed a
great way to do it. Now, does that sign up?
We're gonna send him a copy of Ainslie's book. Uh
as well is it autographed. Absolutely, Okay, Ansley, You're going
to autograph as many as they now. I want to
ask you. You know, I did look through your your
new book. I had to steal a copy that was

(01:28:40):
in the green room because I never got a free
copy like everybody else did. But uh, through your eyes
my child's gift to me. One of the things that
kind of amazed me about about the book it was
pretty interesting and inspiring to me, is you know, as
an adult, if it starts raining, I get piste off.
You know, if it's starts if I have to dig
out my car from the snow, oh, it kind of

(01:29:00):
pisses me. All that's no. Oh, it's raining. And it's
like when you think of or if you look at
children and they're like, it's snowing, look and snowed. It's no.
I remember when I was a kid, it's snow no
school today. I was the happiest kid in in the world.
Then I'd go out and make snowballs, hang on the
back of cars and get arrested and get in trouble.
But it was the happiest time in my life. And

(01:29:23):
I think as adults we really lose that, don't we.
I think so. I think that's why. On the book tour,
I've met so many grandparents that have been able to
say they love being grandparents, they love their grandkids. And
I'll see, really, you can love the kids, your grandkids,
more than you love your own children. I can't imagine
that now that I'm a parent. And they say, I'm
telling you it is so much better. And I'll say why,

(01:29:44):
and they said, because we've learned to take small steps.
We've learned to slow down a little bit. The world
was such a blur when we were raising our kids,
and we were so dizzy, and now we can relax
and we can have fun with our grandkids. We can
spoil them and then send them home. So that's why
I sent him home. Parts the interesting part. Soon the
tired and you have to put him into bed, and

(01:30:04):
they don't want to go to I don't listen. I
know my kids never wanted to go to sleep. I know,
you know, Sean, I can't. I just I can't get
enough with my daughter though. But I was also thirty nine.
When I was pregnant with her, I wanted to have
a child. We had some difficulties getting pregnant, and when
I finally held her in my arms. I remember hearing
a testimony from a man who said his child was

(01:30:27):
born with a terminal illness and every time the child
would cry at night, he and his wife would take
turn just holding the child. And he said every other
parent was was so frustrated when their kids would give
them in the middle of night. But I loved it
because I knew my child wasn't gonna live a very
long life. And so I thought about that when I
had Hayden. And she has taught me so much about

(01:30:47):
you know, we are all so busy. I think that
we were so we just have we have our jobs,
we have our call. It's go go, go, go, go, go, go,
go go. You never rest. It's true, it's true. And
so I think having her has taught me you can
put down the ten and paper at work, you can
pack up a little early. And I've worked so hard.

(01:31:09):
I'm not encouraging people not to work hard because I've
done that, and I've worked the crazy hours and debut
overnight for you know, years on end at Fox News.
But she's just taught me what's really important, and that
is just to enjoy the quality time that I have
with her and just slow down and take a breass.
That's a great book is about. That's a great Christmas message.
And the book is called Through Your Eyes, My Child's

(01:31:30):
Gift to Me. It's a bookstores everywhere and if you
go to Dan's website for Folds of Honor, you'll get
a free copy of Ainsley's book and you can sign
up thirteen dollars a month and you can help put
these kids through college. And where do they go to
do that? Then? Spouses and children through college at Folds
of Honor dot org. And freedom isn't free and we'd

(01:31:51):
be honored to to pay it forward and send you
a copy of Ainslie's amazing book Through your Eyes. Well,
that's that was extremely generous. I will be on in
you a check. I'm really glad you do this. God
bless you and Angel thanks for being for listen to
those a great segment this morning. I'm gonna be in
Dallas on Sunday signing books at one o'clock on Sunday,

great job, both of you, and we appreciate your time.
