Speaker 1 (00:00):
Coming up next our final news round up and Information
Overload Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
My News round up in Information Overload Hour eight hundred
and nine to four one sean if you want to
join us.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Oh forgot to.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Mention psychedelic legalization now approved by California's Assembly and Senate.
Great magic mushrooms. People whacked out on you know, hallucinogens
walking around the same streets you walk around. You know,
we're every day talking about CRT and gender identity and
all these issues that keep coming up. We have one
(00:34):
California judge halting a district policy in southern California that
required parents to be told if kids change their their
pronouns now. Another, following a heated hours long discussion in
Orange County, by the way, the school board there became
the sixth California school system that would require officials to
(00:54):
notify parents if their child identifies as transgender. So, I
mean things are changing people parents, or as the upper
echelon of the FBI recognizes them as you know, potential
domestic terrorists, you know, speak out. They're having a pretty
profound impact. You have been Oklahoma, of all places, a
(01:18):
district that hired a drag queen to be an elementary
school principal that's facing a backlash of Miami school Board
again shutting down the LGBTQ month recognition. Remember most of
these schools we pay more as a country per capita
for education with some of the worst results imaginable. You
can't even you can't even fight to make it that bad.
(01:40):
It's so awful. Anyway, So all of this is what
parents all around the country have been dealing with now
for a long time. And anyway, there is a new
group out there. It's a it's called the National Opportunity Project,
and they are doing an investigation into schools and have
done one on how children and equity and inclusion or
(02:03):
DEI for short, are more important than who's best for
the job for kids. New investigation by this group now
shows that the DEI hiring practices and K through twelve
schools require teachers now to show a commitment to left
wing ideology. And anyway, they just came out with a report.
Some of their conclusions are. You know, they surveyed seventy
(02:25):
public school districts across the US. They found discrimination in
hiring guidance and interviewing questions and teacher job postings and
evaluation criteria. They found left leading political ideology is a
much larger focus than the core curricula that kids need
to become successful in their lives. Their new report validates
(02:48):
concerns that many parents have had that most qualified teachers
aren't the ones being hired in the schools, and specific
examples in school districts across the country you know right
in this report.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Patrick Hughes is the president of this organization, and here's
what he had to say about this report.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
We did a survey of research on seventy four districts
across the country. Sixty nine of those seventy four responded
using Foyer requests and public information and a number of
other things that we were at our disposal to compile
this information. And what we learned is that in numerous
(03:28):
schools across the country, they are looking to hire teachers
to teach children as young as kindergarten age, not based
on their qualifications necessarily or on their educational experience as teachers,
but oftentimes because of where they stand politically. And the
(03:49):
way that this is characterized throughout the process of looking
to hire these folks is through diversity, equity and inclusion,
which sound like fair and things that people can get behind,
but in reality are just a pretext to sort of
backdoor in a particular political point of view or a
(04:12):
particular social ideological point of view.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Patrick Hughes, president of the National Opportunity Project, is here
now to give us a little more background and details
on this.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Tell us more about what you did.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Here, Sean, Thanks for having me on again.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You know, when the COVID lockdowns came in place, parents
became very acutely aware of what was going on in
their kids K through twelve public schools. And what they
became concerned with is were their kids getting educated? And
then later were they being educated or indoctrinated? And so
I decided to commission this report to determine what was
(04:50):
causing sort of these left wing ideological circumstances existing at schools.
And what we learned was teachers are being hired based
on their allegiance to DEI principles. So, for example, in Spokane,
Washington Shahn they ask what does a socially just classroom
look like? If you want to be an art teacher
(05:12):
in Denver in the public schools, you have to lead
for racial and educational excellence and work to dismantle systems
of oppression and in equity. These are political and social
ideological requirements for teachers. So what's happening then, is they're
not looking for the best educators, the best people who
will teach our children going forward, they'll make our country
(05:34):
stronger twenty thirty years from now. They're looking for people
who are here to a particular political philosophy, the philosophy
of the left, and then hiding it in principles of diversity, equity,
and inclusion. And I think is really interesting about this
is the Supreme Court's recent decision in Students for Fair
Admission versus Harvard can potentially be applied to these types
(05:58):
of circumstances. If teachers aren't being hired because of their
more conservative or non political affiliation, because all the teachers'
unions and all these school boards are influenced by the teachers' unions,
are want to do is hire people based on their
left wing politics.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
So the bottom line here is so we pay more
for compita per student in education than any other industrialized country,
and the results, you know, very year to year, but
we have some of the worst results overall, you know,
anywhere between we coming in anywhere between thirty seven and
forty third, and so we're not getting any bang for
(06:39):
our buck. So it seems like what you're discovering is
that they're hiring teachers that are good at and believe
in the indoctrination of their values, which often circumvents the
values of parents. Than they are looking for people that
can teach reading, writing, math, science, history, and computers, which
(06:59):
is where I think the focus should be. And I
think that if they're not doing their job and then
focused on this, then they're just you know, brainwashing a
captive group of kids.
Speaker 5 (07:10):
Yeah, and there's two things going on with what you
just said. There's exactly that sort of doctrination and putting
their politics in place. But when you look at the
teachers unions, right the National Education Association, Randy Whitegarden's American
Federation for Teachers, everybody wanted and those groups wanted schools
closed down during COVID. What they care first and foremost about,
SEAN are their salaries and their benefits. That's why the
(07:32):
costs are so high. What they care less about is education,
and they care more about indoctrination, which is why the
results are so low. Like you just pointed out in
the previous statement that you made, and that's a nasty combination.
And as a result, that's what we're getting in our
k through twelve public schools. And that's up to parents
to fight against this. They should go to the National
Opportunity dot org parents across the country and read this
(07:54):
report and see, you know what it is that they
can do in their own backyard to make sure that
this isn't happening to their kids, because it's a disservice
to the kids which we should care about most number one,
their education. And it's a disservice to the country because
what's going to happen five years, ten years, twenty years
down the road. We're going to have a less educated
group of kids leading our country down the road.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
But there becomes an intimidation factor, you know, when we
discovered that, you know, our own Department of Justice, you know,
was looking into whether parents at school board meetings objecting
to this type of curriculum, you know, potentially being viewed
as domestic terrorists. I mean, you know, a parent get
loud at a school board meeting, you know, is I
(08:37):
would assume a common occurrence and has been a common
occurrence probably for decades. It doesn't seem like, it doesn't
seem like we need the FEDS to come in and
investigate them for domestic terrorism trying.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
You're right, Merrick, Ireland has agreedus in this way in
many ways, but in this way in particular, and the
fight back potentially is what happened in Loudon County and
then ultimately with the election of Pubs Climbing, which is
where parents fought back, they electorate in an offensively purplish
blue state that no, we've had enough of this, And
I honestly think that these types of issues in sort
(09:11):
of COVID opening the eyes of parents and particularly suburban
moms across the country can see what the left and
the left is the Democratic Party now right there is
no middle of the road Democratic Party. What the left
is doing to their children, and maybe there can be
an electoral response to that as well, which we haven't
(09:33):
seen recently, but that I think trend is starting to
change because they're getting more and more radical, and this
DEI report shows how radical they are in terms of
who they want to hire.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Last question, if parents want to read this for themselves
and get educated, how do they do that.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
They just have to go to the National Opportunity dot Org.
It's right there. They can read it, they can contact us,
and there's ways for us to get with them and
help them on this cost.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
All right, Patrick Hughes, President of the National Opportunity Project.
Great work, and we appreciate you being with us. We'll
put a link on Hannity dot com. Sir, let's get
to busy Bones eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean
as we continue this Friday, Alan California, Alan, Happy Friday.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Glad you checked in what's going on, but not too much.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
I don't agree with that guy too much. You know,
there are right right wing people that indoctrinate kids.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, give me an example. Give me an example.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
You'd have to go back to my sister when she
was in elementary school. There was a John Bercher teacher
that was indoctrinating the kids into that and there was
a court case and they removed the teacher. So that's
the only one that I know of.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Yeah, I mean, it's certainly at times, I'm sure was
a problem. And I don't want any indoctrination of kids.
I want I want people to I want our kids
to go to school. They got to sit up straight,
they got to focus and pay it tension and you know,
and learn the basics. We are we're spending a fortune
(11:06):
with the most horrific results. And now added to the problem,
almost every small town in big city in the country,
now we have this influx of nearly eight million illegal
immigrants thanks to your President Joe Biden, and many of
their children are now going to school. In New York City,
school systems are dealing with twenty twenty four thousand illegal
(11:26):
immigrant kids in a school district that it was in
schools that were already failing at a spectacular level.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
And most of them can't speak English.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
They don't have the resources, they're not get any help
from the federal government. We're failing our kids, and we're
robbing them of every wrung of every ladder that leads
to success, not only in this country but in life.
Speaker 6 (11:49):
Well, not my values, what I mean.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Not your values. You sound like a left winger. Listen.
I just want kids.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I want to focus on reading, writing, maths, science, history, computers.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
That's it me too, Well, it's not happening.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
That's the point I said, my kid do a private school.
I didn't wonders, Oh, there you go.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Why did you bail out of the public schools?
Speaker 6 (12:14):
He ended up going to public school for his high
school and his last year of junior high just because
he wanted to play sports and they didn't have it
at the Waldorf School. But you know, it was a
good education, you know. But I wasn't calling it about it.
I was calling it about the corruption and government to
begin with that. You would you know you did before?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Okay, go ahead, bout your comment.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
Well you beat on Hunter and Hunter, but you know
he wasn't in the government.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
But excuse me Hunter, by his own admission, Good morning America.
Well what experience did you have to be paid all
these millions of dollars? Well, I worked on a board
at Amshrak, and I was once on the board of
a UN food program.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
And I'm a lawyer.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Okay, He's getting paid from an oil and gas giant,
massive sums of money in a field of endeavor in
which he had no experience, in a country from which
he had no experience, and gets helped out by Daddy
after five days after a phone call he and Bearisma
executives make to Papa. He leverages a billion dollars and
(13:22):
that worthless. You know, non experienced son who happens to
be an addict at the time, he continues to get paid.
You tell me what do they call that where you
are in California, Allen, because I have a word for
New York.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Yes, nepotism the same.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Is it nepotism or is it influence pedaling? Is it
potential bribery?
Speaker 6 (13:44):
Potentially? Yeah, that potential.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Well, we know he did it, Joe. Joe bragged about
it on tape.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I played it over and over again. Hunter admitted he
had no experience. He's admitting he was addicted to drugs.
What did Why did nine Biden family members make a fortune?
Tell me what from China and Russia and Kazakhstan, Romania, Ukraine, Mexico?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Tell me what do they do for that money?
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Well?
Speaker 6 (14:14):
What about the three billions?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And why did.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Joe Biden lie to everybody saying he never talked to
his son, brother or anybody for that matter. Why did
they lie? Why did they have all those shell corporations?
Why were the grandchildren being paid money from these foreign countries?
Speaker 6 (14:27):
Tell me, I'm not disputing that it was a corrupt operation.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
That's uh.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
He seemed to be downplaying it to me, what do
you call it? Tell me what you call it?
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Not at all. I just go comparison to where Kushner
gets three billion after the administration ends. There should be
some investigation over that.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
There should be some investigation over that. And then there
was an investigation for five years. They let the statute
of limitations run out on Hunter, and then they took
the guy that gave him the sweetheart deal. What he
wants no charges at all? And uh, and only because
the judge caught them is any charge is gonna happen,
but not the ones that involved Joe. Joe Biden was
(15:09):
president and he facilitated it. He not only talked to
his kid, He went to meetings, He had dinners with
his foreign business partners, making phone calls on behalf of
his son so he can this enterprise can continue to
pay them tens of millions of dollars. Why don't you
just say it in one word, it's corrupt. Alan, Let
me hear you say it's corruption.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
If you can prove it in a court of law.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, okay, it's all been proven. Joe admitted it. Hunter
admitted it. What else do you need, I got a
roll eight hundred nine four one, Sean our number. You
want to be a part of the program.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
You can't always believe what the other side claims. That's
why there's the Sean Hannity Show.

By the way, Linda, did you hear Apparently NASCAR has
a diversity internship program and they were listing specific races
(17:29):
and ethnicities as a requirement for the program on their
web page and then when it was made public and
there was a lot of criticism about it and claims
of illegality about it, the internship program is it's by
the way, it's a paid internship and involves attending a race,
visiting the Sports Hall of Fame, and meeting with race
car teams and industry executives. Anyway, NASCAR has now had
(17:52):
required applicants to be one or more of the following
races or ethnic minority classifications, black or African American, American, Indian, Alaska, Native, Asian, Latino,
or Hispanic Native, Hawaiian or other Pacific islander, and that
requirement now is removed. However, a screenshot of the previous
version still exists, and it looks like they. You know,
(18:16):
I wonder sometimes if people in like HR departments, because
every big company is an HR department. You ever hear
of the HR department? I guess we have one at
our company, do we do? I'd have no idea who
they are, and I never want to talk.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
To them ever.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
They're fun.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Uh do you ever have to talk to them?
Speaker 7 (18:34):
I've talked to them occasionally.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah, And you're you're a walking nightmare for them.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
I wouldn't say I'm a walking nightmare, but I wouldn't
say that, you know, I'm gonna walk through the park either.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So they would rather probably just you know, evaporate your
name from their list and say it's just not worth it.
Speaker 8 (18:50):
Well, I think it just comes down to there are
people who go along to get along, and there are
people who fight what's right. I would be the latter.
I'm constantly the voice of contradiction position and calling people
out for their bs on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
There's no shortage of it anyway, So it looks like,
you know, maybe at least one group has realized, Okay,
we're not going to let the HR people run this,
and they saw and they immediately made the proper change.
I wouldn't have expected this. Remember, Ellen Degenero has got
in all this trouble because people that are on her
team and worked for her thought she was mean.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Remember that, I do remember that.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, Well, now.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
The same thing is happening to Jimmy Fallon current staffers.
It's like they couldn't get one person to stand up
for the guy. Nobody anyway. They say that it was
an ugly work environment and that it was Fallen that
had very erratic behavior. They didn't know which Jimmy Fallon
was going to show up in any given day, and
(19:46):
some people alleging they were belittled and intimidated by even
Fallon himself, and they described being afraid of his outbursts, unexpected,
inconsistent behavior. Many staffers voiced their concerns, but their HR
department didn't want anything to do with it. They stayed
away from this, and apparently they were using green rooms
(20:07):
when they weren't being used by guests in the dressing
rooms as crying rooms because they were so upset and
letting their emotions out. And Rolling Stone got all these
people on record. They couldn't find anybody to stick up
with the guy, what is wrong with these people?
Speaker 7 (20:20):
I don't think there's anything wrong with these people.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
You know.
Speaker 8 (20:23):
This is something that really ticks me off. This is America.
If you don't like who you work for, you have
the freedom to change it. You don't need to work
for a company that has a you can apply if
you're not white box, because that's essentially what that company
is doing. They're saying, if you're not white, you can apply,
you know, and unfortunately everybody's afraid to say that, but
that's exactly what it is, because every option is on
(20:44):
there except for a white person. And at the end
of the day, if you're not going to have a
real conversation about the fact that we're not picking the best,
we're picking.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Well the two issues, you're complaining the nastas well.
Speaker 8 (20:54):
I didn't get to comment on the first one, so
I figured I tossed that in for a hot minute,
and then I'll go to Jimmy foun which is if
you don't like working for Jimmy Fallon or Alan DeGeneres
or any other talent.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
There's no shortage of talents.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Guess what.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
You can quit and go somewhere else. If you want
to be treated in a way that you feel, you.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Know, go work somewhere else.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I don't know who he is.
Speaker 7 (21:13):
I don't I can't speak to whether I say this
or not. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Well, I mean, it's pretty obvious if you can't find
one person that says something nice about the guy. I
have found that talent could be very mercurial in my life.
I mean a lot of people the genius makes them
nuts too. And we've discussed this before.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
Maybe I mean talent talent in general, as someone who
works with a lot of talented people.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
You know, I'm at the top of the list.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
You are. You're number one, no question.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
You are the number one most talented person I know,
without question, and the nice and the nicest and the
most giving and the most fun.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
And when people.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
Feed you and you're not hungry, you are even nicer
than usual. But when you're hungry you might be on
the foul level. I don't know, But all jokes aside, I.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Just going over what you just said is so not true.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
Oh my god, you're so defensive of that.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
Unfortunately it's true, because that's why you get defensive about it,
because I'm not.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
You get angry it.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I work in radio and TV, and I don't know
people that give their staffs bonuses every year.
Speaker 7 (22:16):
Oh is that really appropriate?
Speaker 8 (22:17):
Like we're talking about croces and you guys take get
the bonuses really or really well.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
In other words, I know people that make a lot
of money and they don't share any of it with
their staff, and yet their staff is a big reason
that they can be as successful as.
Speaker 7 (22:29):
They are or and those people suck.
Speaker 8 (22:32):
And you know what, when I worked for people who
didn't share their bonus, who didn't share a bonus with
their team, I quit because it's America and you can
do that.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
You can move right now on quit if your bonus
doesn't go up or you know.
Speaker 7 (22:43):
I mean, what I would tell you.
Speaker 8 (22:44):
Is, you know, I've been very blessed and worked for
a lot of bosses who gave me bonuses and they
were very caring and giving. And I've worked for bosses
who were god awful. But people who are going to
complain publicly about their boss. You know what, that person's
never going to get hired again.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Why are you complaining about your boss?
Speaker 8 (23:02):
You cannot tell trash about a current employers.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
But but they but the behavior may be really bad.
I mean some of these people.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
Just so quit, so go leave.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
If everybody done, why there's a lot of people they
have they have house payments, they got rent payments, they got.
Speaker 8 (23:22):
While that could normally be a good argument, we are
in the middle of an employment crisis where.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
People cannot they can't keep the staff in.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
But with the benefits that they're used to. Look, if you're.
Speaker 8 (23:35):
Happy, if you're happier, then maybe you take a little
bit of a pay cup because your happiness is more important.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Than There's another story.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Minnesota Democratic Farmer Labor Party official once vowed to dismantle
the Minneapolis police Department is now calling for tougher crime
laws because she was beaten and bloodied in a card
jacket outside her home. Is that what it takes for
liberals to wake up to the exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:00):
What it takes.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
Look at Mayor Adams, there's no exception. Not in my backyard.
The nimby crowd as soon as it gets in their backyard,
as soon as it happens to them. You hurt them,
you hurt their people, you hurt their family, you hurt
any part of their world. And now it's a problem.
When it was your problem, when it was your world,
it wasn't a problem. Look at Biden today.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
You know what.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
We're going to keep all the migrants, all the illegal aliens.
We're going to keep them in Texas. That's what we're
going to do. I'm sorry why Texas isn't voting for this.
You're voting for this.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
If you look at the actual numbers in New York,
for example, only a small percentage was sent up by Texas.
The overwhelming retory ir llegal immigrants were sent by Biden.
All right, one last thing, and I'm sure this might
be good for you actually to try this, because they're
using it for people that have like stress disorders.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
And what does that mean? You think I have a
stress disorder?
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
One hundred percentway, what stress disorder do I have?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
I worked for Sean Hannity is not going to be
the title of my stress.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I think it's your four hundred thousand other jobs that
might get in the way of creating all the.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
Stress, giving me all thisiness.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
California building criminalizing the personal use of psychedelic and magic mushrooms.
Speaker 7 (25:05):
Great, Oh my god, are you serious?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Serious as a heart attack. I don't think I make
this Adam Schiff up.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
No, there's two stories you sent me today. I didn't
see the magic mushroom one. I don't understand why news
him and his crazy.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Wasn't committed yet.
Speaker 7 (25:21):
Oh please, I'm so in the tank for anything that
is make this guy. I can't stand him.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I think he's It's not a matter of I love him.
I mean I disagree. It stands for I mean.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
You like this is you all the time?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Personally he is a nice person.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
He's a nice person. No he's not.
Speaker 8 (25:38):
No, he is not a nice person. He is a
decrepit politician with a creepy underbelly, and him and his
wife are into everything we are against. He is not
a nice person. I don't care if he looks nice.
Oh yeah, oh really, let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
All right, All right, you need to take a breath.
Did you like take your angry pills today? You're speaking
of man seventy million. I listen, I know him. You
don't even know the guy. You have not spent any
time with him, I have spent a nice can I
(26:12):
finish my can I finish my sentence.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
He's not a murder. I'm just saying I am.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I am saying policies are insane, and he knows I
feel that way about him. But on a personal level,
he is a nice person and Republicans better pay close
attention to him because he's right out of central casting
and that might be the guy that Democrats go to.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Democrats go to.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
By the way, one other warning and admonition, the story
out there about seventy million Americans planning to bet on
the NFL this season. Seventy million. Let me tell you
what's about to unfold in this country. An epidemic of
gambling addiction, the likes of which we've never seen before.
This is different than lot of lotto lotteries, Uh, you know,
(27:01):
play six whatever, whatever, scratch off. It's way different because
people think that they're going to figure out the system,
and guess what, they're not. They're not gonna beat the system.
The reason that every single casino is wealthy is because
you have people with false hope that think ultimately they're
gonna beat the system.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Guess what.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
The odds are stacked against them on purpose. That's how
it's designed.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
And you're gonna see people betting away.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Their homes and their cars and and not being able
to put food on the table. Once this, once this
addiction gets to the next level, and that's coming your
greer disagree.
Speaker 7 (27:40):
I disagree.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
I think that people have a right to do whatever
they want with the money that they earn. And if
they piss away their money gambling on NFL, which by
the way, played the Black national anthem, not the American anthem.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
So if you're watching the NFL.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
They actually played on they actually played both.
Speaker 7 (27:55):
Yeah, well there's only one anthem. There's one. So as
far as I'm concerned, you want to be in a
find a horroron any.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
You know what crossing the plane means?
Speaker 8 (28:04):
Yet, you know what, I don't care because I watch
college ball and that's a learning game for me and
I am learning the game of football learn so that
is okay with me.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
And when you finally learn what crossing the plane means,
just let us know.
Speaker 8 (28:17):
I will I will actually do a breaking news alert
and it will say Linda McLaughlin has learned what crossing
the plane means.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
But AnyWho.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
I think that if people want to bet their money
and they want to bet on games, it don't matter
to anybody else.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
Go for it.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Do it, knock yourself out.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Okay, And when they have families and kids and the
availability of betting.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
I'm I'm not saying a different from the soul I
am not.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
I am not saying that I'm against or or for
any type of government intervention in this. I am just
telling you the availability of betting on these particular sports
is going to create a gambling addiction epidemic in the country.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Let me tell you, it's like epidemic.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
It's only difference is that it's illegal. Now it's illegal.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
It's going to be on HGH and human growth hormone
and testosterone.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It's going to get worse.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
I wright the people that it's going to happen are
people that don't know anything Roy in California.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yes, sir, Sean, Thanks for taking my call. You and
I are on the same page of everything. I can imagine.
I want you every night on channels on Fox News anyway.
You the parallels, Sean, between what I've been going through
for the last four years with the president and my wife,
who died in April of Alzheimer's. I charted it on
(29:40):
a daily basis for four years, and I put it
in writing. Anyway, My reason for calling is I've declared
war on his terminal disease, Alzheimer's, and the only thing
that I think that will save all of us, and
we're all going to be involved in this. There's nobody
that can escape it is search and I spent about
(30:02):
thirty years lobbying for the health industry, so I know
a little bit about this and our boy back in
the White House. I'm not a doctor, but I'll guarantee
you he's got neurological problems that cannot be fixed.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
No, just the opposite. And it sounds like I'm sad
to hear this. I'm sorry that you have had to
live through that. I've seen it myself in life. It
is a degenerative process and disease. It's cognitive decline, it's
Alzheimer's dementia, whatever you want to call it. And it's
obvious to me that Joe is in that state and
(30:36):
he seems to be getting to me progressively worse. I'm
not a doctor, I'm not diagnosing, not sure exactly which
one he falls into. But is cognitive decline is obvious
and clear and transparent.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Absolutely, and there's no reversal, there's no treatment, there's no hope.
The point is, and you know this better than anybody,
that if you or me and your loved one in
my case, if they're diagnosed, they will they will leave
vis hearts. There's no hope. So I took our only
ally against this. As an army. We've got to pick
(31:10):
the research institute, all of us that we have faith in,
and as much money as you can put in there,
do it because every dollar and we put toward it
could save your life or your loved one.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Well, I think it's a noble effort on your part.
And like cures for cancer, cures for dementia, Alzheimer's, et cetera,
you know, I hope we get there, and I think
over time science will will achieve things that we never
dreamed of today. And I hope so, because what you're
describing is nothing except extraordinary team. But the country better
(31:42):
pay attention because he's not up to this job. Are

My News round up in Information Overload Hour eight hundred
and nine to four one sean if you want to
join us.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Oh forgot to.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Mention psychedelic legalization now approved by California's Assembly and Senate.
Great magic mushrooms. People whacked out on you know, hallucinogens
walking around the same streets you walk around. You know,
we're every day talking about CRT and gender identity and
all these issues that keep coming up. We have one
(00:34):
California judge halting a district policy in southern California that
required parents to be told if kids change their their
pronouns now. Another, following a heated hours long discussion in
Orange County, by the way, the school board there became
the sixth California school system that would require officials to
(00:54):
notify parents if their child identifies as transgender. So, I
mean things are changing people parents, or as the upper
echelon of the FBI recognizes them as you know, potential
domestic terrorists, you know, speak out. They're having a pretty
profound impact. You have been Oklahoma, of all places, a
(01:18):
district that hired a drag queen to be an elementary
school principal that's facing a backlash of Miami school Board
again shutting down the LGBTQ month recognition. Remember most of
these schools we pay more as a country per capita
for education with some of the worst results imaginable. You
can't even you can't even fight to make it that bad.
(01:40):
It's so awful. Anyway, So all of this is what
parents all around the country have been dealing with now
for a long time. And anyway, there is a new
group out there. It's a it's called the National Opportunity Project,
and they are doing an investigation into schools and have
done one on how children and equity and inclusion or
(02:03):
DEI for short, are more important than who's best for
the job for kids. New investigation by this group now
shows that the DEI hiring practices and K through twelve
schools require teachers now to show a commitment to left
wing ideology. And anyway, they just came out with a report.
Some of their conclusions are. You know, they surveyed seventy
(02:25):
public school districts across the US. They found discrimination in
hiring guidance and interviewing questions and teacher job postings and
evaluation criteria. They found left leading political ideology is a
much larger focus than the core curricula that kids need
to become successful in their lives. Their new report validates
(02:48):
concerns that many parents have had that most qualified teachers
aren't the ones being hired in the schools, and specific
examples in school districts across the country you know right
in this report.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Patrick Hughes is the president of this organization, and here's
what he had to say about this report.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
We did a survey of research on seventy four districts
across the country. Sixty nine of those seventy four responded
using Foyer requests and public information and a number of
other things that we were at our disposal to compile
this information. And what we learned is that in numerous
(03:28):
schools across the country, they are looking to hire teachers
to teach children as young as kindergarten age, not based
on their qualifications necessarily or on their educational experience as teachers,
but oftentimes because of where they stand politically. And the
(03:49):
way that this is characterized throughout the process of looking
to hire these folks is through diversity, equity and inclusion,
which sound like fair and things that people can get behind,
but in reality are just a pretext to sort of
backdoor in a particular political point of view or a
(04:12):
particular social ideological point of view.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Patrick Hughes, president of the National Opportunity Project, is here
now to give us a little more background and details
on this.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Tell us more about what you did.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Here, Sean, Thanks for having me on again.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
You know, when the COVID lockdowns came in place, parents
became very acutely aware of what was going on in
their kids K through twelve public schools. And what they
became concerned with is were their kids getting educated? And
then later were they being educated or indoctrinated? And so
I decided to commission this report to determine what was
(04:50):
causing sort of these left wing ideological circumstances existing at schools.
And what we learned was teachers are being hired based
on their allegiance to DEI principles. So, for example, in Spokane,
Washington Shahn they ask what does a socially just classroom
look like? If you want to be an art teacher
(05:12):
in Denver in the public schools, you have to lead
for racial and educational excellence and work to dismantle systems
of oppression and in equity. These are political and social
ideological requirements for teachers. So what's happening then, is they're
not looking for the best educators, the best people who
will teach our children going forward, they'll make our country
(05:34):
stronger twenty thirty years from now. They're looking for people
who are here to a particular political philosophy, the philosophy
of the left, and then hiding it in principles of diversity, equity,
and inclusion. And I think is really interesting about this
is the Supreme Court's recent decision in Students for Fair
Admission versus Harvard can potentially be applied to these types
(05:58):
of circumstances. If teachers aren't being hired because of their
more conservative or non political affiliation, because all the teachers'
unions and all these school boards are influenced by the teachers' unions,
are want to do is hire people based on their
left wing politics.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
So the bottom line here is so we pay more
for compita per student in education than any other industrialized country,
and the results, you know, very year to year, but
we have some of the worst results overall, you know,
anywhere between we coming in anywhere between thirty seven and
forty third, and so we're not getting any bang for
(06:39):
our buck. So it seems like what you're discovering is
that they're hiring teachers that are good at and believe
in the indoctrination of their values, which often circumvents the
values of parents. Than they are looking for people that
can teach reading, writing, math, science, history, and computers, which
(06:59):
is where I think the focus should be. And I
think that if they're not doing their job and then
focused on this, then they're just you know, brainwashing a
captive group of kids.
Speaker 5 (07:10):
Yeah, and there's two things going on with what you
just said. There's exactly that sort of doctrination and putting
their politics in place. But when you look at the
teachers unions, right the National Education Association, Randy Whitegarden's American
Federation for Teachers, everybody wanted and those groups wanted schools
closed down during COVID. What they care first and foremost about,
SEAN are their salaries and their benefits. That's why the
(07:32):
costs are so high. What they care less about is education,
and they care more about indoctrination, which is why the
results are so low. Like you just pointed out in
the previous statement that you made, and that's a nasty combination.
And as a result, that's what we're getting in our
k through twelve public schools. And that's up to parents
to fight against this. They should go to the National
Opportunity dot org parents across the country and read this
(07:54):
report and see, you know what it is that they
can do in their own backyard to make sure that
this isn't happening to their kids, because it's a disservice
to the kids which we should care about most number one,
their education. And it's a disservice to the country because
what's going to happen five years, ten years, twenty years
down the road. We're going to have a less educated
group of kids leading our country down the road.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
But there becomes an intimidation factor, you know, when we
discovered that, you know, our own Department of Justice, you know,
was looking into whether parents at school board meetings objecting
to this type of curriculum, you know, potentially being viewed
as domestic terrorists. I mean, you know, a parent get
loud at a school board meeting, you know, is I
(08:37):
would assume a common occurrence and has been a common
occurrence probably for decades. It doesn't seem like, it doesn't
seem like we need the FEDS to come in and
investigate them for domestic terrorism trying.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
You're right, Merrick, Ireland has agreedus in this way in
many ways, but in this way in particular, and the
fight back potentially is what happened in Loudon County and
then ultimately with the election of Pubs Climbing, which is
where parents fought back, they electorate in an offensively purplish
blue state that no, we've had enough of this, And
I honestly think that these types of issues in sort
(09:11):
of COVID opening the eyes of parents and particularly suburban
moms across the country can see what the left and
the left is the Democratic Party now right there is
no middle of the road Democratic Party. What the left
is doing to their children, and maybe there can be
an electoral response to that as well, which we haven't
(09:33):
seen recently, but that I think trend is starting to
change because they're getting more and more radical, and this
DEI report shows how radical they are in terms of
who they want to hire.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Last question, if parents want to read this for themselves
and get educated, how do they do that.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
They just have to go to the National Opportunity dot Org.
It's right there. They can read it, they can contact us,
and there's ways for us to get with them and
help them on this cost.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
All right, Patrick Hughes, President of the National Opportunity Project.
Great work, and we appreciate you being with us. We'll
put a link on Hannity dot com. Sir, let's get
to busy Bones eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean
as we continue this Friday, Alan California, Alan, Happy Friday.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Glad you checked in what's going on, but not too much.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
I don't agree with that guy too much. You know,
there are right right wing people that indoctrinate kids.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, give me an example. Give me an example.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
You'd have to go back to my sister when she
was in elementary school. There was a John Bercher teacher
that was indoctrinating the kids into that and there was
a court case and they removed the teacher. So that's
the only one that I know of.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Yeah, I mean, it's certainly at times, I'm sure was
a problem. And I don't want any indoctrination of kids.
I want I want people to I want our kids
to go to school. They got to sit up straight,
they got to focus and pay it tension and you know,
and learn the basics. We are we're spending a fortune
(11:06):
with the most horrific results. And now added to the problem,
almost every small town in big city in the country,
now we have this influx of nearly eight million illegal
immigrants thanks to your President Joe Biden, and many of
their children are now going to school. In New York City,
school systems are dealing with twenty twenty four thousand illegal
(11:26):
immigrant kids in a school district that it was in
schools that were already failing at a spectacular level.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
And most of them can't speak English.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
They don't have the resources, they're not get any help
from the federal government. We're failing our kids, and we're
robbing them of every wrung of every ladder that leads
to success, not only in this country but in life.
Speaker 6 (11:49):
Well, not my values, what I mean.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Not your values. You sound like a left winger. Listen.
I just want kids.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I want to focus on reading, writing, maths, science, history, computers.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
That's it me too, Well, it's not happening.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
That's the point I said, my kid do a private school.
I didn't wonders, Oh, there you go.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Why did you bail out of the public schools?
Speaker 6 (12:14):
He ended up going to public school for his high
school and his last year of junior high just because
he wanted to play sports and they didn't have it
at the Waldorf School. But you know, it was a
good education, you know. But I wasn't calling it about it.
I was calling it about the corruption and government to
begin with that. You would you know you did before?
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Okay, go ahead, bout your comment.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
Well you beat on Hunter and Hunter, but you know
he wasn't in the government.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
But excuse me Hunter, by his own admission, Good morning America.
Well what experience did you have to be paid all
these millions of dollars? Well, I worked on a board
at Amshrak, and I was once on the board of
a UN food program.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
And I'm a lawyer.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Okay, He's getting paid from an oil and gas giant,
massive sums of money in a field of endeavor in
which he had no experience, in a country from which
he had no experience, and gets helped out by Daddy
after five days after a phone call he and Bearisma
executives make to Papa. He leverages a billion dollars and
(13:22):
that worthless. You know, non experienced son who happens to
be an addict at the time, he continues to get paid.
You tell me what do they call that where you
are in California, Allen, because I have a word for
New York.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Yes, nepotism the same.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Is it nepotism or is it influence pedaling? Is it
potential bribery?
Speaker 6 (13:44):
Potentially? Yeah, that potential.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Well, we know he did it, Joe. Joe bragged about
it on tape.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I played it over and over again. Hunter admitted he
had no experience. He's admitting he was addicted to drugs.
What did Why did nine Biden family members make a fortune?
Tell me what from China and Russia and Kazakhstan, Romania, Ukraine, Mexico?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Tell me what do they do for that money?
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Well?
Speaker 6 (14:14):
What about the three billions?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And why did.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Joe Biden lie to everybody saying he never talked to
his son, brother or anybody for that matter. Why did
they lie? Why did they have all those shell corporations?
Why were the grandchildren being paid money from these foreign countries?
Speaker 6 (14:27):
Tell me, I'm not disputing that it was a corrupt operation.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
That's uh.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
He seemed to be downplaying it to me, what do
you call it? Tell me what you call it?
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Not at all. I just go comparison to where Kushner
gets three billion after the administration ends. There should be
some investigation over that.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
There should be some investigation over that. And then there
was an investigation for five years. They let the statute
of limitations run out on Hunter, and then they took
the guy that gave him the sweetheart deal. What he
wants no charges at all? And uh, and only because
the judge caught them is any charge is gonna happen,
but not the ones that involved Joe. Joe Biden was
(15:09):
president and he facilitated it. He not only talked to
his kid, He went to meetings, He had dinners with
his foreign business partners, making phone calls on behalf of
his son so he can this enterprise can continue to
pay them tens of millions of dollars. Why don't you
just say it in one word, it's corrupt. Alan, Let
me hear you say it's corruption.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
If you can prove it in a court of law.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, okay, it's all been proven. Joe admitted it. Hunter
admitted it. What else do you need, I got a
roll eight hundred nine four one, Sean our number. You
want to be a part of the program.

By the way, Linda, did you hear Apparently NASCAR has
a diversity internship program and they were listing specific races
(17:29):
and ethnicities as a requirement for the program on their
web page and then when it was made public and
there was a lot of criticism about it and claims
of illegality about it, the internship program is it's by
the way, it's a paid internship and involves attending a race,
visiting the Sports Hall of Fame, and meeting with race
car teams and industry executives. Anyway, NASCAR has now had
(17:52):
required applicants to be one or more of the following
races or ethnic minority classifications, black or African American, American, Indian, Alaska, Native, Asian, Latino,
or Hispanic Native, Hawaiian or other Pacific islander, and that
requirement now is removed. However, a screenshot of the previous
version still exists, and it looks like they. You know,
(18:16):
I wonder sometimes if people in like HR departments, because
every big company is an HR department. You ever hear
of the HR department? I guess we have one at
our company, do we do? I'd have no idea who
they are, and I never want to talk.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
To them ever.
Speaker 7 (18:31):
They're fun.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Uh do you ever have to talk to them?
Speaker 7 (18:34):
I've talked to them occasionally.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Yeah, And you're you're a walking nightmare for them.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
I wouldn't say I'm a walking nightmare, but I wouldn't
say that, you know, I'm gonna walk through the park either.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So they would rather probably just you know, evaporate your
name from their list and say it's just not worth it.
Speaker 8 (18:50):
Well, I think it just comes down to there are
people who go along to get along, and there are
people who fight what's right. I would be the latter.
I'm constantly the voice of contradiction position and calling people
out for their bs on a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
There's no shortage of it anyway, So it looks like,
you know, maybe at least one group has realized, Okay,
we're not going to let the HR people run this,
and they saw and they immediately made the proper change.
I wouldn't have expected this. Remember, Ellen Degenero has got
in all this trouble because people that are on her
team and worked for her thought she was mean.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Remember that, I do remember that.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah, Well, now.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
The same thing is happening to Jimmy Fallon current staffers.
It's like they couldn't get one person to stand up
for the guy. Nobody anyway. They say that it was
an ugly work environment and that it was Fallen that
had very erratic behavior. They didn't know which Jimmy Fallon
was going to show up in any given day, and
(19:46):
some people alleging they were belittled and intimidated by even
Fallon himself, and they described being afraid of his outbursts, unexpected,
inconsistent behavior. Many staffers voiced their concerns, but their HR
department didn't want anything to do with it. They stayed
away from this, and apparently they were using green rooms
(20:07):
when they weren't being used by guests in the dressing
rooms as crying rooms because they were so upset and
letting their emotions out. And Rolling Stone got all these
people on record. They couldn't find anybody to stick up
with the guy, what is wrong with these people?
Speaker 7 (20:20):
I don't think there's anything wrong with these people.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
You know.
Speaker 8 (20:23):
This is something that really ticks me off. This is America.
If you don't like who you work for, you have
the freedom to change it. You don't need to work
for a company that has a you can apply if
you're not white box, because that's essentially what that company
is doing. They're saying, if you're not white, you can apply,
you know, and unfortunately everybody's afraid to say that, but
that's exactly what it is, because every option is on
(20:44):
there except for a white person. And at the end
of the day, if you're not going to have a
real conversation about the fact that we're not picking the best,
we're picking.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Well the two issues, you're complaining the nastas well.
Speaker 8 (20:54):
I didn't get to comment on the first one, so
I figured I tossed that in for a hot minute,
and then I'll go to Jimmy foun which is if
you don't like working for Jimmy Fallon or Alan DeGeneres
or any other talent.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
There's no shortage of talents.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Guess what.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
You can quit and go somewhere else. If you want
to be treated in a way that you feel, you.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Know, go work somewhere else.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I don't know who he is.
Speaker 7 (21:13):
I don't I can't speak to whether I say this
or not. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
Well, I mean, it's pretty obvious if you can't find
one person that says something nice about the guy. I
have found that talent could be very mercurial in my life.
I mean a lot of people the genius makes them
nuts too. And we've discussed this before.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
Maybe I mean talent talent in general, as someone who
works with a lot of talented people.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
You know, I'm at the top of the list.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
You are. You're number one, no question.
Speaker 8 (21:40):
You are the number one most talented person I know,
without question, and the nice and the nicest and the
most giving and the most fun.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
And when people.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
Feed you and you're not hungry, you are even nicer
than usual. But when you're hungry you might be on
the foul level. I don't know, But all jokes aside, I.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Just going over what you just said is so not true.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
Oh my god, you're so defensive of that.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
Unfortunately it's true, because that's why you get defensive about it,
because I'm not.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
You get angry it.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I work in radio and TV, and I don't know
people that give their staffs bonuses every year.
Speaker 7 (22:16):
Oh is that really appropriate?
Speaker 8 (22:17):
Like we're talking about croces and you guys take get
the bonuses really or really well.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
In other words, I know people that make a lot
of money and they don't share any of it with
their staff, and yet their staff is a big reason
that they can be as successful as.
Speaker 7 (22:29):
They are or and those people suck.
Speaker 8 (22:32):
And you know what, when I worked for people who
didn't share their bonus, who didn't share a bonus with
their team, I quit because it's America and you can
do that.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
You can move right now on quit if your bonus
doesn't go up or you know.
Speaker 7 (22:43):
I mean, what I would tell you.
Speaker 8 (22:44):
Is, you know, I've been very blessed and worked for
a lot of bosses who gave me bonuses and they
were very caring and giving. And I've worked for bosses
who were god awful. But people who are going to
complain publicly about their boss. You know what, that person's
never going to get hired again.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Why are you complaining about your boss?
Speaker 8 (23:02):
You cannot tell trash about a current employers.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
But but they but the behavior may be really bad.
I mean some of these people.
Speaker 7 (23:10):
Just so quit, so go leave.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
If everybody done, why there's a lot of people they
have they have house payments, they got rent payments, they got.
Speaker 8 (23:22):
While that could normally be a good argument, we are
in the middle of an employment crisis where.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
People cannot they can't keep the staff in.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
But with the benefits that they're used to. Look, if you're.
Speaker 8 (23:35):
Happy, if you're happier, then maybe you take a little
bit of a pay cup because your happiness is more important.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Than There's another story.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Minnesota Democratic Farmer Labor Party official once vowed to dismantle
the Minneapolis police Department is now calling for tougher crime
laws because she was beaten and bloodied in a card
jacket outside her home. Is that what it takes for
liberals to wake up to the exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:00):
What it takes.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
Look at Mayor Adams, there's no exception. Not in my backyard.
The nimby crowd as soon as it gets in their backyard,
as soon as it happens to them. You hurt them,
you hurt their people, you hurt their family, you hurt
any part of their world. And now it's a problem.
When it was your problem, when it was your world,
it wasn't a problem. Look at Biden today.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
You know what.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
We're going to keep all the migrants, all the illegal aliens.
We're going to keep them in Texas. That's what we're
going to do. I'm sorry why Texas isn't voting for this.
You're voting for this.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
If you look at the actual numbers in New York,
for example, only a small percentage was sent up by Texas.
The overwhelming retory ir llegal immigrants were sent by Biden.
All right, one last thing, and I'm sure this might
be good for you actually to try this, because they're
using it for people that have like stress disorders.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
And what does that mean? You think I have a
stress disorder?
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
One hundred percentway, what stress disorder do I have?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
I worked for Sean Hannity is not going to be
the title of my stress.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I think it's your four hundred thousand other jobs that
might get in the way of creating all the.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
Stress, giving me all thisiness.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
California building criminalizing the personal use of psychedelic and magic mushrooms.
Speaker 7 (25:05):
Great, Oh my god, are you serious?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Serious as a heart attack. I don't think I make
this Adam Schiff up.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
No, there's two stories you sent me today. I didn't
see the magic mushroom one. I don't understand why news
him and his crazy.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Wasn't committed yet.
Speaker 7 (25:21):
Oh please, I'm so in the tank for anything that
is make this guy. I can't stand him.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I think he's It's not a matter of I love him.
I mean I disagree. It stands for I mean.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
You like this is you all the time?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Personally he is a nice person.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
He's a nice person. No he's not.
Speaker 8 (25:38):
No, he is not a nice person. He is a
decrepit politician with a creepy underbelly, and him and his
wife are into everything we are against. He is not
a nice person. I don't care if he looks nice.
Oh yeah, oh really, let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
All right, All right, you need to take a breath.
Did you like take your angry pills today? You're speaking
of man seventy million. I listen, I know him. You
don't even know the guy. You have not spent any
time with him, I have spent a nice can I
(26:12):
finish my can I finish my sentence.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
He's not a murder. I'm just saying I am.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I am saying policies are insane, and he knows I
feel that way about him. But on a personal level,
he is a nice person and Republicans better pay close
attention to him because he's right out of central casting
and that might be the guy that Democrats go to.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Democrats go to.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
By the way, one other warning and admonition, the story
out there about seventy million Americans planning to bet on
the NFL this season. Seventy million. Let me tell you
what's about to unfold in this country. An epidemic of
gambling addiction, the likes of which we've never seen before.
This is different than lot of lotto lotteries, Uh, you know,
(27:01):
play six whatever, whatever, scratch off. It's way different because
people think that they're going to figure out the system,
and guess what, they're not. They're not gonna beat the system.
The reason that every single casino is wealthy is because
you have people with false hope that think ultimately they're
gonna beat the system.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Guess what.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
The odds are stacked against them on purpose. That's how
it's designed.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
And you're gonna see people betting away.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Their homes and their cars and and not being able
to put food on the table. Once this, once this
addiction gets to the next level, and that's coming your
greer disagree.
Speaker 7 (27:40):
I disagree.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
I think that people have a right to do whatever
they want with the money that they earn. And if
they piss away their money gambling on NFL, which by
the way, played the Black national anthem, not the American anthem.
Speaker 7 (27:52):
So if you're watching the NFL.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
They actually played on they actually played both.
Speaker 7 (27:55):
Yeah, well there's only one anthem. There's one. So as
far as I'm concerned, you want to be in a
find a horroron any.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
You know what crossing the plane means?
Speaker 8 (28:04):
Yet, you know what, I don't care because I watch
college ball and that's a learning game for me and
I am learning the game of football learn so that
is okay with me.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
And when you finally learn what crossing the plane means,
just let us know.
Speaker 8 (28:17):
I will I will actually do a breaking news alert
and it will say Linda McLaughlin has learned what crossing
the plane means.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
But AnyWho.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
I think that if people want to bet their money
and they want to bet on games, it don't matter
to anybody else.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
Go for it.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Do it, knock yourself out.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Okay, And when they have families and kids and the
availability of betting.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
I'm I'm not saying a different from the soul I
am not.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
I am not saying that I'm against or or for
any type of government intervention in this. I am just
telling you the availability of betting on these particular sports
is going to create a gambling addiction epidemic in the country.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Let me tell you, it's like epidemic.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
It's only difference is that it's illegal. Now it's illegal.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
It's going to be on HGH and human growth hormone
and testosterone.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
It's going to get worse.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
I wright the people that it's going to happen are
people that don't know anything Roy in California.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Yes, sir, Sean, Thanks for taking my call. You and
I are on the same page of everything. I can imagine.
I want you every night on channels on Fox News anyway.
You the parallels, Sean, between what I've been going through
for the last four years with the president and my wife,
who died in April of Alzheimer's. I charted it on
(29:40):
a daily basis for four years, and I put it
in writing. Anyway, My reason for calling is I've declared
war on his terminal disease, Alzheimer's, and the only thing
that I think that will save all of us, and
we're all going to be involved in this. There's nobody
that can escape it is search and I spent about
(30:02):
thirty years lobbying for the health industry, so I know
a little bit about this and our boy back in
the White House. I'm not a doctor, but I'll guarantee
you he's got neurological problems that cannot be fixed.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
No, just the opposite. And it sounds like I'm sad
to hear this. I'm sorry that you have had to
live through that. I've seen it myself in life. It
is a degenerative process and disease. It's cognitive decline, it's
Alzheimer's dementia, whatever you want to call it. And it's
obvious to me that Joe is in that state and
(30:36):
he seems to be getting to me progressively worse. I'm
not a doctor, I'm not diagnosing, not sure exactly which
one he falls into. But is cognitive decline is obvious
and clear and transparent.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Absolutely, and there's no reversal, there's no treatment, there's no hope.
The point is, and you know this better than anybody,
that if you or me and your loved one in
my case, if they're diagnosed, they will they will leave
vis hearts. There's no hope. So I took our only
ally against this. As an army. We've got to pick
(31:10):
the research institute, all of us that we have faith in,
and as much money as you can put in there,
do it because every dollar and we put toward it
could save your life or your loved one.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Well, I think it's a noble effort on your part.
And like cures for cancer, cures for dementia, Alzheimer's, et cetera,
you know, I hope we get there, and I think
over time science will will achieve things that we never
dreamed of today. And I hope so, because what you're
describing is nothing except extraordinary team. But the country better
(31:42):
pay attention because he's not up to this job. Are
