Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, thank you, Scott Shan in hour two Sean
(00:02):
Hannity's show, Toll Free. Our number is eight hundred and
nine point one, Shawn, if you want to be a
part of the program. I got to give credit a
lot of credit to the MAHA Movement. Health and Human
Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Junior. I think has done a
phenomenal job and he's fulfilling his promise to educate the
(00:23):
American people about dangers of food colorings, additives, chemicals, and
our foods. And he's also giving the American people choices.
We also have to give a lot of credit to
doctor Oz who's going to join us in a minute.
They have identified ways to get savings in Medicaid. Number one,
(00:43):
just taking the thirteen million, fourteen million illegal immigrants off
of Medicaid, for example, is going to cost us. It's
going to save us a fortune. On top of that,
we have discovered massive increases in Medicaid, especially over the
last twelve fourteen years, to the point where it's now
headed towards insolvency. And what we're seeing is the federal
(01:05):
contribution and the original intent of what medicaid was supposed
to be about has evolved into the left's effort to
socialize or create a national health service, if you will,
or the equivalent thereof. Yesterday, doctor Oz announced that the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, of which he is
(01:27):
the head is, launched an oversight initiative on hospitals performing
experimental sex trait modification procedures, and they sent a letter
to select hospitals that are performing pediatric sex trait modification
procedures outlining urgent concerns with both the quality standards, adherents
(01:50):
and profits related to these harmful procedures.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
These are irreversible, high risk procedures being conducted on vulnerable children,
often at taxpayer expense, said Doctor Ozzie said. Hospitals accepting
federal funds are expected to meet rigorous quality standards uphold
the highest quality of stewardship. When it comes to public resources.
We will not turn a blind eye to procedures that
(02:17):
lack a solid foundation of evidence that may result in
lifelong harm. And they have previously noted the lack of
reliable clinical evidence supporting the quality and the safety of
puberty blockers, cross sex hormones sex trate modification surgeries for minors. Now,
remember this became a big deal during the campaign and
(02:39):
the left in America, for example, Tim Walls wanted gender
affirming care care, not counseling care for young adults, in
other words, under age without parental consent. Now, these are
life changing, life altering decisions, and I don't think anybody
(02:59):
under the age of eighteen is capable of making that decision.
For crying out loud, you can't buy a jewel pod
without an ID and proof that you're over the age
of twenty one, never mind a bottle of beer or
bottle of wine, or a spirit of any kind. I mean,
how old do you have to be to get a
driver's license? In some states it's a little lower. But
(03:20):
the idea that this can happen without any parental consent,
on top of the fact that it's happening at all,
and that taxpayers are funding it, is insane. Anyway, doctor
Oz joins us, Now, sir, how are you very.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Well beautifully articulated. It is a sensitive topic to a
lot of Americans because we don't want that the young
generation hurt irreversibly. Ironically, just to add to the discussion,
we have put a white paper out where as you
pointed out the President as jerky, are curious people, and
by curious, I mean they actually want to know the answer.
(03:55):
Eighty percent of questions are really statements in the skies.
You face that all the time, but in this case,
we really want to know the answers. We did a
white paper. It turns out that the countries that were
leading in these gender operations, these disfiguring mutilating operations, the
UK Scandinavy, they stopped, they pulled back because they realized
after a while that most of these young kids are
(04:17):
troubled in ways that you're not going to fix for surgery.
There's a lot of kids who make a decision when
they're thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, and then five years later they
realized it was a terrible mistake. It is too late.
You've lost your organs. They recreated you in something else,
into something else, and that's not a life that you're
happy living with. The joy is gone from intercourse. A
(04:38):
lot of things then follow after that, which are again irreversible.
And you made a decision at the age thirteen fourteen
fifteen that is irreversible, but you have to live with
And so we believe that institutions that are involved in
these types of procedures should be aware that we're watching.
They should be reporting as to everybody what their results are.
We should also be very clear that it's a financial
(04:59):
modi here. These are operations. Sometimes it costs one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars per child because you've got to
take something off and recreate something in its place. These
our incentives sometimes to do things that are not in
the best interest of the American people, and we want
folks to be aware that's happening. So we've set letters
(05:20):
to nine of these institutions that are very much engaged
in this process so that they'll respond with very specific
response to ours, very specific questions and hopefully we'll all
learn a bit more a much what's really going down.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Well, I want to understand and want more detailed explanations
of how, for example, and formed consent is obtained for
pediatric patients, and whether parents are involved in the decision,
and how are taxpayer funds going towards this, Being that
it's so controversial.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Well that's by the way. Part of the discussion that
we're having is when you have a mental health condition,
which is what is being used as the excuse for
these operations. They argue, these kids are going to hurt
themselves if they don't have their gender transform. That's, by
the ways, a highly speculative, unproven claim that has been
(06:14):
crutched on quite a bit, but we don't believe it's
correct be and our white paper reinforces that reality. Again,
that's one of the reasons they're not doing these operations
as much in other parts of the world that used
to be pioneering the work. But you're asking a very
critical question, is taxpayer money being used for these And
we actually control the payment of care for over half
the kids in the country, between Medicaid and CHIP, which
(06:37):
is SODA's health insurance program, that's about fifty three percent
of all the kids in the country. And so we
believe that in these in those two instances, kids should
not be undergoing operations with taxpayer dollar. We have rules
and regulations, we have the ability to put out and
we've already started this process and we want to be
very public about the fact that we're headed in this direction,
(06:58):
so everybody knows is coming and so prizes. But there's
that much bigger argument here, which is how do we
protect young people who are in trouble from making decisions
that they that they will they will be penalized by
and for sure the parents have to be involved, but
even the parents should be aware that children change their minds.
(07:19):
And so if a kid gets embraced and has made
the feel that once they just let you know, provided
a clue that they might be transgender, when they're thirteen,
they can't change their mind and therefore they have to
go through these whole series of processes. That that is
bad advice and that we are concerned being given as
advice to young people and their parents. And we're arguing
(07:40):
based on the science, and which is again we're leading
with the science here. So I know this is uncomfortable realities.
But the Maha movement that you started talking about the
opening of your monologue is all about curiosity. Are you
truly curious about what is going down? If you're honestly
curious about what's having the transgender kids and why the
incidents has exploded so much over the last few years.
(08:02):
And this is not a again, it's purely genetical. It
would have been president twenty five thirty years ago. It's
not The incidence is dramatically increase far beyond what genes
would have explained. Then you have to also be aware
that kids can be made to think certain things, and
they can. If they're embraced in that thinking and not
allowed to naturally change their mind, you might be making
a terrible mistake. This is all behind for me additional
(08:24):
reasons why we might want to stole this process down
and not let kids jump into a big mistake.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Well, I think this is more than important. Let's talk
about the taxpayer funding of such and where do we
stand with that.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Well, we put a rule out through the exchanges, as
you know, these are the Obamacare exchanges, because under the
divided administration, there was a desire to fund these procedures
in every level. So the exchanges we put the rule
out already gotten public comment back. We understand what people's
concerns are. We're addressing them, but we don't think they
(08:58):
should that the public taxpayers to be subsidizing insurance contracts
that pay for these procedures. Medicate another good example. We
Medicate should be designed to take care of health issues
that are afflicting our most vulnerable, and so we want
these kids to get care, but not care. This experimental
(09:18):
that's mutilating and is not demonstrated to be of impact.
And we have the same belief for Chip and this
is all part of a larger and I believe very
brave move by the President who has an executive order
in this area, and he wants to deliver on his
campaign promises. He told the American people that he thought
these were mutilating operations. He was right, and he promised
them he would address it if he was elected. He
(09:39):
was elected, so we want him to fulfill his promise.
He wants to fill the promise, and so that's why
we're following up on all the things that appropriately of
being asked by your listeners.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I've had extensive conversations with Caitlin Schenner and right after
she did that big interview with Diane Sawyer, we had
a long, long conversation and I knew Caitlyn when Caitlyn
was Bruce the Cathalon winner, and we remain friends to
this day. And it's interesting the position that she takes.
At one point I said in the conversation, I said
(10:13):
I'd be less than honest if I didn't tell you
I don't understand this, and her answer was actually pretty profound,
She said, I wouldn't expect you to understand it because
you're not living it.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I said, fair enough. With that said, she went into a.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Long narratives explaining why it is important to her to
go public, why it was important for her to go public,
and why, for example, she's against men playing in women's sports,
and why she supports Title nine, and why this is
not a decision for a young person, and this is
(10:50):
only a decision for an adult because it's permanent, it's
life altering. And it's interesting that she has come under
criticism for for stating what I believe are just simple,
common sensical questions what adults eventually choose to do with
their lives. I don't think the government should really have
any say over, but I don't think it should be
funded by taxpayers either, especially an elective surgery. Or I
(11:13):
would argue an elective surgery.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
And she seems to agreement with me on all of that.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And I think that it's unfair that she has been
targeted just because she doesn't buy into the entire extreme
argument of the left.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
What's your reaction.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
She's a brave woman. She's saying what many others have
told me as well, they don't want to have a
target on their back. They don't agree with what's being
said about the transgender situation, and they feel that by
misconstruing what's really desired and I think scientifically valid, you're
actually hurting the process. In fact, maybe my friends who
(11:49):
are gay males argue that it's specifically targeting young gay
men because these boys will change their mind, you know,
they have a belief. It's confusing as they try to
sort of figure out what's going on in their life.
For some of the time that they're confused, they may
believe their transgender they often will settle into being a
(12:10):
gay male. But because they're being pushed into these operations
and seemingly embraced, but it's actually almost being you know,
zo held and pushed into the process, then they now
are taking their life in a very different direction. But
I think, Sean, this is just an example of where
the President is making very brave moves that are that
(12:31):
they are sometimes confusing for the average American is not
paying attention to. But over time they begin to realize
one second, that's that's not right. What Caplin Jennings Jenner
saying is if you just sit back for a second
and is listened to her as someone who went through it,
you understand there's deep wisdom there. We can say the
same for the most favorite nation drug pricing Brave executive
(12:53):
order that was signed by the President where and I'm
proud by the way that he was willing to do
something that he knew had political risk associated with it.
There's a lot of money pouring in from the pharmaceutical
industry to protect their sector. But President was very clear
in saying that he's proud of the innovation that has
taken place in the pharma school industry. But if you're
(13:14):
an average listener right now, you know two thirds of
bankruptcies in America are caused by health problems. And about
a third of Americans who are given a medication to
treat a problem don't take their meds because they can't
afford it. I mean, the idea that you have a
choice between being sick and having money in the bank
is a terrible reality for a lot of Americans. And
(13:36):
here's the irony Sean and you'll get this. A lot
of the CEOs of these farmer companies are they're patriotic Americans,
they get it. They're sort of saying now under their breath, well,
I mean someone finally made us make a decision here,
you know, we're going to do this until someone finally
held up the reality that we're charging a lot more
for these drugs in America, two to three, sometimes four
(13:56):
times more than these drugs costs over the countries. And
the President has said enough, it's not going to happen.
You're making seventy percent of your profit off the American people.
We're four percent of the world population. Go make money elsewhere.
And the equalization argument, which is a compelling one, is
what he used for natal right. He went to NATO countries,
he said, guys, we're paying all the bill to protect you.
That's not right. You should pay some of the bill,
(14:17):
and won't pay some of the bill. We'll carry our
fare load. And it worked, and we're going to do
the same thing with the most favored nation pricing on
drug prices. The average American is not going to have
to decide whether to be healthy or whether it be bankrupt.
That's a false choice and that this president is going
to address.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
And because we also produce, you know, eighty percent of
the development of new medicines, and it costs billions to
find them, and pharmaceutical companies do create good medicines that
help prolonged life and save life, and then I know
they get a bad wrap on other issues, some warranted,
some not, Doctor Oz. We really appreciate the great work
you're doing. This is very important. We've got to protect
(14:57):
our kids and you can't have life all t decisions
made at young ages without parental consent, without and I
don't think taxpayer should be forced to pay for it either.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
We appreciate your time.

Ground to cover. We're gonna get to your calls coming up.
Fake Jake Tapper, you'd almost think he's like turning into
a conservative. Uh, maybe selling a book is more important.
Let me tell you what's happening. Anyone that works on
CNN fake News. They are all on Cancelation Watch, just
like all these late night comics are on official cancelation Watch.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
We'll get to that. We'll check in with nuke ging.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Richie wrote, he wrote a great, definitive book on Trump's victory.
Trump's Triumphy calls it America's greatest comeback. We'll get to
that eight hundred and ninety four to one. Sean, don't
forget punchlines and Patriots. Let's go to Hannity dot com
for tickets in clear Water in Fort Lauderdale, Allan Baldwin's
favorite radio talk show host is on the air right now, right,
(17:08):
mister Baldwin's Sean Hennity, alright, twenty five till the top
of the hour. Thank you for being with us. Eight
hundred and nine foot one, Shawn our number if you
want to be a part of the program. Israel's safety
today depends on the brave men and women of the IDF.
I actually think we should adopt this in this country.
Every citizen in Israel is required to serve young people,
(17:32):
men and women, young men and women, and many do
so without any family nearby, without any job prospects after.
In many cases, their service is leaving their families struggling
just to get by. But thankfully we have partnered with
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. This is where
they step in, and they have tens and tens of
thousands of displaced Israelis. They need, you know, every bit
(17:56):
of humanitarian assistance possible, food, water, METAe in, shelter, clothing,
you name it, and the same with a lot of
these IDF soldiers. And whatever gift you can provide, you
are helping to provide these bare necessities, especially as Israel
is in a fight for its very survival as we speak,
(18:16):
as they fight a seven front war, and now the
threat of Iranian nukes gets stronger every day. Whatever you
can do to help Israel in their battle against radical
Islamic terrorists, please call and donate eight eight eight four
eight eight IFCJ eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ
on the web, it's four letters, IFCJ dot org. That's
(18:39):
IFCJ dot org. And let's pray for peace, hopefully eventually
sooner than later in the Middle East.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Linda, is it just me?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I mean we talk a lot about election year conversions
where politicians that for decades have have had express deeply
held beliefs and then it becomes an election year and
they begin to sound like somebody that they are not,
and all their positions begin to change, and fake Jake
Tapper is the latest example. He was not covering Joe
(19:10):
Biden's cognitive decline, and now he's written a book about
it with some other guy and acting as though this
is the greatest media cover maybe worse than water It
is worse than Watergate. It is the greatest White House
presidential scandal in history. This was a coordinated effort. And
the book goes into details about it. Based on the
(19:33):
excerpts I've read, I will not buy that book or
pay for that book. And it's funny. Well, Fox News
won't put us on the year. I'm like, I guess
because we're a competitive net. You're not a competitive network.
He gets like three four hundred thousand viewers a night.
The guy is not doing well. And just like all
(19:53):
these late night comedy shows that aren't funny but are
just political, you know there, they're all officially on cancelation watch.
Everybody on CNN fake News is on cancelation watch. I
don't know if this is, you know, the equivalent of
an election year conversion. Now, Fake Jake, who did not
chronicle the way we did, or anybody else Joe Biden's
(20:14):
cognitive decline is now making money off it through this
book that he's trying to sell, and he's been out
hawking here, there.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
And everywhere.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Now all of a sudden, he's criticizing Letitia James and
Alvin Bragg for lawfair against Trump and the media letting
it slide. They were there was nothing but breathless hysteria
on fake news CNN. Look in the mirror, Jake, fake Jake,
take a good long look in the mirror. Go back
and watch your own show.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Listen.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
I look at the way I covered, you know, the president,
some of the trials of the president. I thought were
you know, I think it's I think it is problematic
when people run for prosecutor and promise to go after
a specific politics and both Letitia James, Ettorney General New York,
and Alvin Bragg, the District Attorney New York, both of
them did that. And that to me is problematic because
(21:09):
you're not saying this is the offense and we need
to bring justice to this perpetrator.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
You're saying, I'm going to go after him.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
And I think that there was a degree to which
that was tolerated by the media at large. I mean,
I did note it at the time, but like and
when Trump does the same thing and he's the president,
so it's also a different degree. People perceive it as
more problematic.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
I excuse me. They ran on a get Trump platform.
You can't.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
I mean, you talk about tolerated. I remember Fake Jake,
you know, breathlessly reporting every detail of the phony Russia
collusion story. Go back and watch the tapes, Fake Jake.
You know, did you ever point out to your audience
that the Marrow Lago valuation was and phony and fraudulent.
Did you ever bring on a Palm Beach real estate
(22:03):
expert to counter Judge Erdouan's you know, phony valuation that
he's stuck to. Did you ever go after, you know,
on the air and saying, Leticia James could recuse herself
with anything involving Donald Trump having run and used the
words he's gonna get Trump. You know, did you ever
go after Alvin Bragg's trumped up charges pun intended, you know,
(22:27):
using a novel legal theory to get around you know,
a simple nda who's by the way, which is a
misdemeanor whose statute of limitations had long since it aspired.
Did you ever talk about the double standard when it
came to top secret classified information and the way they
treated Trump versus Hillary versus Biden. Did you ever talk
(22:48):
about any of this? No, you did not. Do you
ever talk about visa abuse? You ever talk about how
the dirty Russian misinformation dossier? No spake news CNN went
with the details of it all I remembering it at
the time eight hundred ninety four one, Sean, if you
want to be a part of the program, all right,
let's get to David in Texas, God bless Texas. David,
(23:11):
How are you glad you called David?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Are you there? Hellou? David?
Speaker 1 (23:19):
David once? David twice, David three times? Sold to Norman
in Long Island, New York. What's up, Norman? How are
you sir? Glad you called Hi?
Speaker 4 (23:28):
How are you?
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Sean? I'm good. I have two things that I wanted
to discuss with you. First thing, AOC In the waning
days of Biden's campaigns, she went on the campaign trail
with him. How come she's never question on Biden's cognitive decline.
She seems to always get a free ride. She challenges
(23:51):
us or the Republicans all the time. But how come
nobody challenges.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
A Every single Democrat has to answer the question what
did you know?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
When did you know it?
Speaker 1 (24:04):
And those that say they didn't see it are lying,
and everybody needs to know they were lying, just like
they lied about the borders being secure and the border's
being closed, and inflation being transitory. And Joe Biden, it's
hard to keep up with him. He's so fit, he's
so aware. I have a hard time Jen Saki, she
must be in horrible shaped at a hard time keeping
(24:26):
up with Joe. They're all full of it. They're lying
to you.
Speaker 7 (24:29):
In the waiting days when everybody saw us, she said
he's doing great, and nobody checks. What they show is
fake rallies that she has, and a lot of people
get the impression that she's really winning over a lot
of people. And you know, you got to be careful
what you wish for. Sometimes by showing.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
You well said you're right on the money, You're all
over it. You're right on the money.
Speaker 7 (24:52):
I've been teaching science for a long time. When we
said covid vaccine, it's not a real vaccine in the
sense of event vaccine. A vaccine is a weakened or
a dead form of the virus covid, what we call
the COVID vaccine is really chemicals. It's an MRIRNA that's
not made from the real DNA of the COVID virus,
(25:14):
but something that mimics the virus. And because of that,
you know, when you get a real vaccine, you're getting
the real virus, which causes the real antibodies in your
body to respond. This has a bunch of chemicals on
it which can target all different sites in the body.
And I really believe that all those other chemicals aren't
(25:35):
specific just for COVID, but they are waking up genes
that are dormant or that are LinkedIn that are beginning
to show up with like these heart problems that kids
are having, And we don't really know what those other
chemicals do. So maybe it does work on COVID, but
it's also causing other problems.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Big time listen, and we have Robert Malone who created
the RNA technology, and he was on this program telling
people it wasn't perfected. He said, it's not perfected. However,
he said for emergency authorization for older people with comorbidities
pre existing conditions, he would approve the use in that
case because they had no other defense. Although we had
(26:19):
doctor Tyson on yesterday there was a defense and there's
you know, two hundred studies, he says, now the show
that what we were. You know that Donald Trump was
right that taken early hydroxy chloroquin, for example, mitigated symptoms.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
You know.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
And I never talked about it myself when I first
got COVID, I used hydroxy chloroquin. Never told it before.
Now because everyone was demanding I tell my status. And
I had the Alpha straing. And guess what. I didn't
miss a single day of work, not one. I worked
in a room by myself. That's how I did my shows. Anyway,
I appreciate you being with us, Linda. You remember that time,
(26:56):
don't you?
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Oh my god, Yeah, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oh and then and then sweet baby James, I'd say,
just just put papers under the door and I'll get
them later. Stay out of the room. And he would
next thing, I turn around and he'd be in the room.
I'm like, get the hell out of here to scream
at him. You know how many times he's a sweet baby.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
He's getting bashed for the flag, bash for the papers.
That guy, I'd tell you mass a tough job.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
I mean, you were you were yelling at me to
take off. You would tell just take off? You know
I can hear how I'm done?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Surrendered. You promise never again, yeah, never again. You will
never yell at me or be mad at me again.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
I didn't say mad.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
I just said y'all, all.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Right, quick break right back to our phones, our toll
free numbers, eight hundred and nine to four one sean.
If you want to be a part of the program,
we have new Gingrich coming up at the top of
the hour, and much more as we continue. Let's get
back to our busy phones. Eight hundred nine four one sean.
If you want to join us. Is David in Texas?
Is he there or not there? We tried David before. David,
God bless Texas. Are you there?
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (27:59):
What's so? What would you go for a walk? You
buy a sandwich, you get lunch?
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What'd you do?
Speaker 7 (28:04):
No?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
I don't know what happened to was just blank on.
I'd never heard anything.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
What's going on?
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Well, I just wanted to talk a little bit about
the UH the way the judiciary system, and now they're
talking about the governors of all the democratic states are
going to start trying to plan some kind of conspire
against doing something. And I'm just wondering why the FBI
and DOJ can't go with the eighteen USC. Twenty three
(28:34):
eighty four, which is, uh, it's it's edition and subversion
activities generally involved acts that undermine the government but do
not necessarily involve violence. Why why couldn't Why couldn't we
go on the offense just like they're using lawfare and
have our are basically our administration going after them to
(28:58):
you know, stop this conspiracy behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Well, I I'm just telling you right now, none of
this is going to stand. I mean, we're not gonna
win every decision. But this judge blocking the you know,
Trump from suspending this Biden era you know, migrant parole
program is insane because it goes against the rule of law.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
That will not stand.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
The federal court that rejected Trump's unbounded authority to impose
worldwide terroriffs. I'm sorry, but that is Article two. That
is the that that that would be the president's constitutional
authority and role, And the US Court of International Trade
out of New York City ruled wednesday that the President
(29:41):
overstepped his authority over tariffs under the International Emergency Economic
Powers act. Well, what does that mean? Excuse me, Uh,
that's that's not going to hold. But you know, this
is what he's now facing. It's called law fair. It
has a name. They go judge shopping and they go
to liberal jurisdictions, liberal jurists, activists. But so far, you know,
(30:06):
every time they think they win and it goes to
a higher court and they lose for the most part.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Yeah, hopefully, but they're.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Just trying to slow down the agenda and what they
cannot get done electorally at the ballot box or legislatively,
they use activist judges to do things, and that's what
they're doing.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Hopefully we could judge shop and do everything they do
to basically counter that. Maybe they'll stop doing it.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Oh well, the best thing we can do is appoint
more conservative justices that we can find enough of them.
We need them, and we get disappointed far too many times. Frankly,
I'm kind of done with the federalists since they get
it wrong too often. We need to find conservative jurist period. Anyway,
my friend, appreciate the call. Eight hundred and ninety four
one Sean Terry, North Carolina, Sean Hannity.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Show, Hi, thank Sean.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
How you doing today.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I'm good, sir. What's going on?
Speaker 6 (31:00):
I got a quick question for you about the big
beautiful bial. You know, when they hinted out the stimulus
checks at the end of the year, we were taxed home.
When the overtime it's not paying tax year in the
year and the tips and stuff at the end of
the year is they're going to be taxed on our
federal income tax like the stimulus checks were.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Uh no, you won't get taxed on tips. People that
work in the service industry, for example, often they get
paid below minimum wage. A lot of people don't know that.
I know for my years in working in the service industry.
And when you get tipped, you know, most people pay
by credit card, and so there's a record of it,
and so you report all that as income and then
(31:40):
you get taxed on it. Now, moving forward in the future,
do you give great service and people want to give
you a tip, You're not going to have to pay
taxes on it. That is huge for people in the
service industry. I mean I used to bring cash to
tip people all the time. I'm still a big believer
in cash. I'm probably one of the few people well
(32:00):
tell my kids all the time.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Do you have any cash?
Speaker 3 (32:02):
On?
Speaker 2 (32:02):
No, they never have any. It drives me nuts.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Try I'm like, here, take it, take every and I
think it's their way of like extorting dad for more cash.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
I understand that part too.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
I work a lot overtime and I was just wanting,
like the end of the year.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Yeah, you won't. You're not going to get tax on
your overtime.
Speaker 7 (32:21):
Man.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
You keep working it and then save that money. Remember,
money is freedom, Bunny. Money gives you if you can
save some, it is freedom to make choices in your life.
It won't make you happy. And I was poor and
now I have money. I think I could argue I
was happy when I was poor. I can't make that argument.
Linda's like rolling her eyes. But it gives you freedom,
(32:45):
and then you well, do I want to move to
the state? Do I do I want to? Should I
fix my car and get a new car? I mean,
it gives you a lot of freedom. Saving money is important.
Living under your means is important anyway. Eight hundred and
nine four one shown is a numbers
All right, thank you, Scott Shan in hour two Sean
(00:02):
Hannity's show, Toll Free. Our number is eight hundred and
nine point one, Shawn, if you want to be a
part of the program. I got to give credit a
lot of credit to the MAHA Movement. Health and Human
Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Junior. I think has done a
phenomenal job and he's fulfilling his promise to educate the
(00:23):
American people about dangers of food colorings, additives, chemicals, and
our foods. And he's also giving the American people choices.
We also have to give a lot of credit to
doctor Oz who's going to join us in a minute.
They have identified ways to get savings in Medicaid. Number one,
(00:43):
just taking the thirteen million, fourteen million illegal immigrants off
of Medicaid, for example, is going to cost us. It's
going to save us a fortune. On top of that,
we have discovered massive increases in Medicaid, especially over the
last twelve fourteen years, to the point where it's now
headed towards insolvency. And what we're seeing is the federal
(01:05):
contribution and the original intent of what medicaid was supposed
to be about has evolved into the left's effort to
socialize or create a national health service, if you will,
or the equivalent thereof. Yesterday, doctor Oz announced that the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, of which he is
(01:27):
the head is, launched an oversight initiative on hospitals performing
experimental sex trait modification procedures, and they sent a letter
to select hospitals that are performing pediatric sex trait modification
procedures outlining urgent concerns with both the quality standards, adherents
(01:50):
and profits related to these harmful procedures.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
These are irreversible, high risk procedures being conducted on vulnerable children,
often at taxpayer expense, said Doctor Ozzie said. Hospitals accepting
federal funds are expected to meet rigorous quality standards uphold
the highest quality of stewardship. When it comes to public resources.
We will not turn a blind eye to procedures that
(02:17):
lack a solid foundation of evidence that may result in
lifelong harm. And they have previously noted the lack of
reliable clinical evidence supporting the quality and the safety of
puberty blockers, cross sex hormones sex trate modification surgeries for minors. Now,
remember this became a big deal during the campaign and
(02:39):
the left in America, for example, Tim Walls wanted gender
affirming care care, not counseling care for young adults, in
other words, under age without parental consent. Now, these are
life changing, life altering decisions, and I don't think anybody
(02:59):
under the age of eighteen is capable of making that decision.
For crying out loud, you can't buy a jewel pod
without an ID and proof that you're over the age
of twenty one, never mind a bottle of beer or
bottle of wine, or a spirit of any kind. I mean,
how old do you have to be to get a
driver's license? In some states it's a little lower. But
(03:20):
the idea that this can happen without any parental consent,
on top of the fact that it's happening at all,
and that taxpayers are funding it, is insane. Anyway, doctor
Oz joins us, Now, sir, how are you very.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Well beautifully articulated. It is a sensitive topic to a
lot of Americans because we don't want that the young
generation hurt irreversibly. Ironically, just to add to the discussion,
we have put a white paper out where as you
pointed out the President as jerky, are curious people, and
by curious, I mean they actually want to know the answer.
(03:55):
Eighty percent of questions are really statements in the skies.
You face that all the time, but in this case,
we really want to know the answers. We did a
white paper. It turns out that the countries that were
leading in these gender operations, these disfiguring mutilating operations, the
UK Scandinavy, they stopped, they pulled back because they realized
after a while that most of these young kids are
(04:17):
troubled in ways that you're not going to fix for surgery.
There's a lot of kids who make a decision when
they're thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, and then five years later they
realized it was a terrible mistake. It is too late.
You've lost your organs. They recreated you in something else,
into something else, and that's not a life that you're
happy living with. The joy is gone from intercourse. A
(04:38):
lot of things then follow after that, which are again irreversible.
And you made a decision at the age thirteen fourteen
fifteen that is irreversible, but you have to live with
And so we believe that institutions that are involved in
these types of procedures should be aware that we're watching.
They should be reporting as to everybody what their results are.
We should also be very clear that it's a financial
(04:59):
modi here. These are operations. Sometimes it costs one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars per child because you've got to
take something off and recreate something in its place. These
our incentives sometimes to do things that are not in
the best interest of the American people, and we want
folks to be aware that's happening. So we've set letters
(05:20):
to nine of these institutions that are very much engaged
in this process so that they'll respond with very specific
response to ours, very specific questions and hopefully we'll all
learn a bit more a much what's really going down.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Well, I want to understand and want more detailed explanations
of how, for example, and formed consent is obtained for
pediatric patients, and whether parents are involved in the decision,
and how are taxpayer funds going towards this, Being that
it's so controversial.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Well that's by the way. Part of the discussion that
we're having is when you have a mental health condition,
which is what is being used as the excuse for
these operations. They argue, these kids are going to hurt
themselves if they don't have their gender transform. That's, by
the ways, a highly speculative, unproven claim that has been
(06:14):
crutched on quite a bit, but we don't believe it's
correct be and our white paper reinforces that reality. Again,
that's one of the reasons they're not doing these operations
as much in other parts of the world that used
to be pioneering the work. But you're asking a very
critical question, is taxpayer money being used for these And
we actually control the payment of care for over half
the kids in the country, between Medicaid and CHIP, which
(06:37):
is SODA's health insurance program, that's about fifty three percent
of all the kids in the country. And so we
believe that in these in those two instances, kids should
not be undergoing operations with taxpayer dollar. We have rules
and regulations, we have the ability to put out and
we've already started this process and we want to be
very public about the fact that we're headed in this direction,
(06:58):
so everybody knows is coming and so prizes. But there's
that much bigger argument here, which is how do we
protect young people who are in trouble from making decisions
that they that they will they will be penalized by
and for sure the parents have to be involved, but
even the parents should be aware that children change their minds.
(07:19):
And so if a kid gets embraced and has made
the feel that once they just let you know, provided
a clue that they might be transgender, when they're thirteen,
they can't change their mind and therefore they have to
go through these whole series of processes. That that is
bad advice and that we are concerned being given as
advice to young people and their parents. And we're arguing
(07:40):
based on the science, and which is again we're leading
with the science here. So I know this is uncomfortable realities.
But the Maha movement that you started talking about the
opening of your monologue is all about curiosity. Are you
truly curious about what is going down? If you're honestly
curious about what's having the transgender kids and why the
incidents has exploded so much over the last few years.
(08:02):
And this is not a again, it's purely genetical. It
would have been president twenty five thirty years ago. It's
not The incidence is dramatically increase far beyond what genes
would have explained. Then you have to also be aware
that kids can be made to think certain things, and
they can. If they're embraced in that thinking and not
allowed to naturally change their mind, you might be making
a terrible mistake. This is all behind for me additional
(08:24):
reasons why we might want to stole this process down
and not let kids jump into a big mistake.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Well, I think this is more than important. Let's talk
about the taxpayer funding of such and where do we
stand with that.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Well, we put a rule out through the exchanges, as
you know, these are the Obamacare exchanges, because under the
divided administration, there was a desire to fund these procedures
in every level. So the exchanges we put the rule
out already gotten public comment back. We understand what people's
concerns are. We're addressing them, but we don't think they
(08:58):
should that the public taxpayers to be subsidizing insurance contracts
that pay for these procedures. Medicate another good example. We
Medicate should be designed to take care of health issues
that are afflicting our most vulnerable, and so we want
these kids to get care, but not care. This experimental
(09:18):
that's mutilating and is not demonstrated to be of impact.
And we have the same belief for Chip and this
is all part of a larger and I believe very
brave move by the President who has an executive order
in this area, and he wants to deliver on his
campaign promises. He told the American people that he thought
these were mutilating operations. He was right, and he promised
them he would address it if he was elected. He
(09:39):
was elected, so we want him to fulfill his promise.
He wants to fill the promise, and so that's why
we're following up on all the things that appropriately of
being asked by your listeners.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
I've had extensive conversations with Caitlin Schenner and right after
she did that big interview with Diane Sawyer, we had
a long, long conversation and I knew Caitlyn when Caitlyn
was Bruce the Cathalon winner, and we remain friends to
this day. And it's interesting the position that she takes.
At one point I said in the conversation, I said
(10:13):
I'd be less than honest if I didn't tell you
I don't understand this, and her answer was actually pretty profound,
She said, I wouldn't expect you to understand it because
you're not living it.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I said, fair enough. With that said, she went into a.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Long narratives explaining why it is important to her to
go public, why it was important for her to go public,
and why, for example, she's against men playing in women's sports,
and why she supports Title nine, and why this is
not a decision for a young person, and this is
(10:50):
only a decision for an adult because it's permanent, it's
life altering. And it's interesting that she has come under
criticism for for stating what I believe are just simple,
common sensical questions what adults eventually choose to do with
their lives. I don't think the government should really have
any say over, but I don't think it should be
funded by taxpayers either, especially an elective surgery. Or I
(11:13):
would argue an elective surgery.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
And she seems to agreement with me on all of that.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And I think that it's unfair that she has been
targeted just because she doesn't buy into the entire extreme
argument of the left.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
What's your reaction.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
She's a brave woman. She's saying what many others have
told me as well, they don't want to have a
target on their back. They don't agree with what's being
said about the transgender situation, and they feel that by
misconstruing what's really desired and I think scientifically valid, you're
actually hurting the process. In fact, maybe my friends who
(11:49):
are gay males argue that it's specifically targeting young gay
men because these boys will change their mind, you know,
they have a belief. It's confusing as they try to
sort of figure out what's going on in their life.
For some of the time that they're confused, they may
believe their transgender they often will settle into being a
(12:10):
gay male. But because they're being pushed into these operations
and seemingly embraced, but it's actually almost being you know,
zo held and pushed into the process, then they now
are taking their life in a very different direction. But
I think, Sean, this is just an example of where
the President is making very brave moves that are that
(12:31):
they are sometimes confusing for the average American is not
paying attention to. But over time they begin to realize
one second, that's that's not right. What Caplin Jennings Jenner
saying is if you just sit back for a second
and is listened to her as someone who went through it,
you understand there's deep wisdom there. We can say the
same for the most favorite nation drug pricing Brave executive
(12:53):
order that was signed by the President where and I'm
proud by the way that he was willing to do
something that he knew had political risk associated with it.
There's a lot of money pouring in from the pharmaceutical
industry to protect their sector. But President was very clear
in saying that he's proud of the innovation that has
taken place in the pharma school industry. But if you're
(13:14):
an average listener right now, you know two thirds of
bankruptcies in America are caused by health problems. And about
a third of Americans who are given a medication to
treat a problem don't take their meds because they can't
afford it. I mean, the idea that you have a
choice between being sick and having money in the bank
is a terrible reality for a lot of Americans. And
(13:36):
here's the irony Sean and you'll get this. A lot
of the CEOs of these farmer companies are they're patriotic Americans,
they get it. They're sort of saying now under their breath, well,
I mean someone finally made us make a decision here,
you know, we're going to do this until someone finally
held up the reality that we're charging a lot more
for these drugs in America, two to three, sometimes four
(13:56):
times more than these drugs costs over the countries. And
the President has said enough, it's not going to happen.
You're making seventy percent of your profit off the American people.
We're four percent of the world population. Go make money elsewhere.
And the equalization argument, which is a compelling one, is
what he used for natal right. He went to NATO countries,
he said, guys, we're paying all the bill to protect you.
That's not right. You should pay some of the bill,
(14:17):
and won't pay some of the bill. We'll carry our
fare load. And it worked, and we're going to do
the same thing with the most favored nation pricing on
drug prices. The average American is not going to have
to decide whether to be healthy or whether it be bankrupt.
That's a false choice and that this president is going
to address.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
And because we also produce, you know, eighty percent of
the development of new medicines, and it costs billions to
find them, and pharmaceutical companies do create good medicines that
help prolonged life and save life, and then I know
they get a bad wrap on other issues, some warranted,
some not, Doctor Oz. We really appreciate the great work
you're doing. This is very important. We've got to protect
(14:57):
our kids and you can't have life all t decisions
made at young ages without parental consent, without and I
don't think taxpayer should be forced to pay for it either.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
We appreciate your time.

Fake Jake Tapper, you'd almost think he's like turning into
a conservative. Uh, maybe selling a book is more important.
Let me tell you what's happening. Anyone that works on
CNN fake News. They are all on Cancelation Watch, just
like all these late night comics are on official cancelation Watch.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
We'll get to that. We'll check in with nuke ging.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Richie wrote, he wrote a great, definitive book on Trump's victory.
Trump's Triumphy calls it America's greatest comeback. We'll get to
that eight hundred and ninety four to one. Sean, don't
forget punchlines and Patriots. Let's go to Hannity dot com
for tickets in clear Water in Fort Lauderdale, Allan Baldwin's
favorite radio talk show host is on the air right now, right,
(17:08):
mister Baldwin's Sean Hennity, alright, twenty five till the top
of the hour. Thank you for being with us. Eight
hundred and nine foot one, Shawn our number if you
want to be a part of the program. Israel's safety
today depends on the brave men and women of the IDF.
I actually think we should adopt this in this country.
Every citizen in Israel is required to serve young people,
(17:32):
men and women, young men and women, and many do
so without any family nearby, without any job prospects after.
In many cases, their service is leaving their families struggling
just to get by. But thankfully we have partnered with
the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. This is where
they step in, and they have tens and tens of
thousands of displaced Israelis. They need, you know, every bit
(17:56):
of humanitarian assistance possible, food, water, METAe in, shelter, clothing,
you name it, and the same with a lot of
these IDF soldiers. And whatever gift you can provide, you
are helping to provide these bare necessities, especially as Israel
is in a fight for its very survival as we speak,
(18:16):
as they fight a seven front war, and now the
threat of Iranian nukes gets stronger every day. Whatever you
can do to help Israel in their battle against radical
Islamic terrorists, please call and donate eight eight eight four
eight eight IFCJ eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ
on the web, it's four letters, IFCJ dot org. That's
(18:39):
IFCJ dot org. And let's pray for peace, hopefully eventually
sooner than later in the Middle East.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Linda, is it just me?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I mean we talk a lot about election year conversions
where politicians that for decades have have had express deeply
held beliefs and then it becomes an election year and
they begin to sound like somebody that they are not,
and all their positions begin to change, and fake Jake
Tapper is the latest example. He was not covering Joe
(19:10):
Biden's cognitive decline, and now he's written a book about
it with some other guy and acting as though this
is the greatest media cover maybe worse than water It
is worse than Watergate. It is the greatest White House
presidential scandal in history. This was a coordinated effort. And
the book goes into details about it. Based on the
(19:33):
excerpts I've read, I will not buy that book or
pay for that book. And it's funny. Well, Fox News
won't put us on the year. I'm like, I guess
because we're a competitive net. You're not a competitive network.
He gets like three four hundred thousand viewers a night.
The guy is not doing well. And just like all
(19:53):
these late night comedy shows that aren't funny but are
just political, you know there, they're all officially on cancelation watch.
Everybody on CNN fake News is on cancelation watch. I
don't know if this is, you know, the equivalent of
an election year conversion. Now, Fake Jake, who did not
chronicle the way we did, or anybody else Joe Biden's
(20:14):
cognitive decline is now making money off it through this
book that he's trying to sell, and he's been out
hawking here, there.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
And everywhere.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Now all of a sudden, he's criticizing Letitia James and
Alvin Bragg for lawfair against Trump and the media letting
it slide. They were there was nothing but breathless hysteria
on fake news CNN. Look in the mirror, Jake, fake Jake,
take a good long look in the mirror. Go back
and watch your own show.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Listen.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
I look at the way I covered, you know, the president,
some of the trials of the president. I thought were
you know, I think it's I think it is problematic
when people run for prosecutor and promise to go after
a specific politics and both Letitia James, Ettorney General New York,
and Alvin Bragg, the District Attorney New York, both of
them did that. And that to me is problematic because
(21:09):
you're not saying this is the offense and we need
to bring justice to this perpetrator.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
You're saying, I'm going to go after him.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
And I think that there was a degree to which
that was tolerated by the media at large. I mean,
I did note it at the time, but like and
when Trump does the same thing and he's the president,
so it's also a different degree. People perceive it as
more problematic.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
I excuse me. They ran on a get Trump platform.
You can't.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
I mean, you talk about tolerated. I remember Fake Jake,
you know, breathlessly reporting every detail of the phony Russia
collusion story. Go back and watch the tapes, Fake Jake.
You know, did you ever point out to your audience
that the Marrow Lago valuation was and phony and fraudulent.
Did you ever bring on a Palm Beach real estate
(22:03):
expert to counter Judge Erdouan's you know, phony valuation that
he's stuck to. Did you ever go after, you know,
on the air and saying, Leticia James could recuse herself
with anything involving Donald Trump having run and used the
words he's gonna get Trump. You know, did you ever
go after Alvin Bragg's trumped up charges pun intended, you know,
(22:27):
using a novel legal theory to get around you know,
a simple nda who's by the way, which is a
misdemeanor whose statute of limitations had long since it aspired.
Did you ever talk about the double standard when it
came to top secret classified information and the way they
treated Trump versus Hillary versus Biden. Did you ever talk
(22:48):
about any of this? No, you did not. Do you
ever talk about visa abuse? You ever talk about how
the dirty Russian misinformation dossier? No spake news CNN went
with the details of it all I remembering it at
the time eight hundred ninety four one, Sean, if you
want to be a part of the program, all right,
let's get to David in Texas, God bless Texas. David,
(23:11):
How are you glad you called David?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Are you there? Hellou? David?
Speaker 1 (23:19):
David once? David twice, David three times? Sold to Norman
in Long Island, New York. What's up, Norman? How are
you sir? Glad you called Hi?
Speaker 4 (23:28):
How are you?
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Sean? I'm good. I have two things that I wanted
to discuss with you. First thing, AOC In the waning
days of Biden's campaigns, she went on the campaign trail
with him. How come she's never question on Biden's cognitive decline.
She seems to always get a free ride. She challenges
(23:51):
us or the Republicans all the time. But how come
nobody challenges.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
A Every single Democrat has to answer the question what
did you know?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
When did you know it?
Speaker 1 (24:04):
And those that say they didn't see it are lying,
and everybody needs to know they were lying, just like
they lied about the borders being secure and the border's
being closed, and inflation being transitory. And Joe Biden, it's
hard to keep up with him. He's so fit, he's
so aware. I have a hard time Jen Saki, she
must be in horrible shaped at a hard time keeping
(24:26):
up with Joe. They're all full of it. They're lying
to you.
Speaker 7 (24:29):
In the waiting days when everybody saw us, she said
he's doing great, and nobody checks. What they show is
fake rallies that she has, and a lot of people
get the impression that she's really winning over a lot
of people. And you know, you got to be careful
what you wish for. Sometimes by showing.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
You well said you're right on the money, You're all
over it. You're right on the money.
Speaker 7 (24:52):
I've been teaching science for a long time. When we
said covid vaccine, it's not a real vaccine in the
sense of event vaccine. A vaccine is a weakened or
a dead form of the virus covid, what we call
the COVID vaccine is really chemicals. It's an MRIRNA that's
not made from the real DNA of the COVID virus,
(25:14):
but something that mimics the virus. And because of that,
you know, when you get a real vaccine, you're getting
the real virus, which causes the real antibodies in your
body to respond. This has a bunch of chemicals on
it which can target all different sites in the body.
And I really believe that all those other chemicals aren't
(25:35):
specific just for COVID, but they are waking up genes
that are dormant or that are LinkedIn that are beginning
to show up with like these heart problems that kids
are having, And we don't really know what those other
chemicals do. So maybe it does work on COVID, but
it's also causing other problems.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Big time listen, and we have Robert Malone who created
the RNA technology, and he was on this program telling
people it wasn't perfected. He said, it's not perfected. However,
he said for emergency authorization for older people with comorbidities
pre existing conditions, he would approve the use in that
case because they had no other defense. Although we had
(26:19):
doctor Tyson on yesterday there was a defense and there's
you know, two hundred studies, he says, now the show
that what we were. You know that Donald Trump was
right that taken early hydroxy chloroquin, for example, mitigated symptoms.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
You know.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
And I never talked about it myself when I first
got COVID, I used hydroxy chloroquin. Never told it before.
Now because everyone was demanding I tell my status. And
I had the Alpha straing. And guess what. I didn't
miss a single day of work, not one. I worked
in a room by myself. That's how I did my shows. Anyway,
I appreciate you being with us, Linda. You remember that time,
(26:56):
don't you?
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Oh my god, Yeah, it's insane.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oh and then and then sweet baby James, I'd say,
just just put papers under the door and I'll get
them later. Stay out of the room. And he would
next thing, I turn around and he'd be in the room.
I'm like, get the hell out of here to scream
at him. You know how many times he's a sweet baby.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
He's getting bashed for the flag, bash for the papers.
That guy, I'd tell you mass a tough job.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
I mean, you were you were yelling at me to
take off. You would tell just take off? You know
I can hear how I'm done?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Surrendered. You promise never again, yeah, never again. You will
never yell at me or be mad at me again.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
I didn't say mad.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
I just said y'all, all.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Right, quick break right back to our phones, our toll
free numbers, eight hundred and nine to four one sean.
If you want to be a part of the program,
we have new Gingrich coming up at the top of
the hour, and much more as we continue. Let's get
back to our busy phones. Eight hundred nine four one sean.
If you want to join us. Is David in Texas?
Is he there or not there? We tried David before. David,
God bless Texas. Are you there?
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (27:59):
What's so? What would you go for a walk? You
buy a sandwich, you get lunch?
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What'd you do?
Speaker 7 (28:04):
No?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
I don't know what happened to was just blank on.
I'd never heard anything.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
What's going on?
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Well, I just wanted to talk a little bit about
the UH the way the judiciary system, and now they're
talking about the governors of all the democratic states are
going to start trying to plan some kind of conspire
against doing something. And I'm just wondering why the FBI
and DOJ can't go with the eighteen USC. Twenty three
(28:34):
eighty four, which is, uh, it's it's edition and subversion
activities generally involved acts that undermine the government but do
not necessarily involve violence. Why why couldn't Why couldn't we
go on the offense just like they're using lawfare and
have our are basically our administration going after them to
(28:58):
you know, stop this conspiracy behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Well, I I'm just telling you right now, none of
this is going to stand. I mean, we're not gonna
win every decision. But this judge blocking the you know,
Trump from suspending this Biden era you know, migrant parole
program is insane because it goes against the rule of law.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
That will not stand.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
The federal court that rejected Trump's unbounded authority to impose
worldwide terroriffs. I'm sorry, but that is Article two. That
is the that that that would be the president's constitutional
authority and role, And the US Court of International Trade
out of New York City ruled wednesday that the President
(29:41):
overstepped his authority over tariffs under the International Emergency Economic
Powers act. Well, what does that mean? Excuse me, Uh,
that's that's not going to hold. But you know, this
is what he's now facing. It's called law fair. It
has a name. They go judge shopping and they go
to liberal jurisdictions, liberal jurists, activists. But so far, you know,
(30:06):
every time they think they win and it goes to
a higher court and they lose for the most part.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Yeah, hopefully, but they're.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Just trying to slow down the agenda and what they
cannot get done electorally at the ballot box or legislatively,
they use activist judges to do things, and that's what
they're doing.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Hopefully we could judge shop and do everything they do
to basically counter that. Maybe they'll stop doing it.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Oh well, the best thing we can do is appoint
more conservative justices that we can find enough of them.
We need them, and we get disappointed far too many times. Frankly,
I'm kind of done with the federalists since they get
it wrong too often. We need to find conservative jurist period. Anyway,
my friend, appreciate the call. Eight hundred and ninety four
one Sean Terry, North Carolina, Sean Hannity.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Show, Hi, thank Sean.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
How you doing today.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I'm good, sir. What's going on?
Speaker 6 (31:00):
I got a quick question for you about the big
beautiful bial. You know, when they hinted out the stimulus
checks at the end of the year, we were taxed home.
When the overtime it's not paying tax year in the
year and the tips and stuff at the end of
the year is they're going to be taxed on our
federal income tax like the stimulus checks were.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Uh no, you won't get taxed on tips. People that
work in the service industry, for example, often they get
paid below minimum wage. A lot of people don't know that.
I know for my years in working in the service industry.
And when you get tipped, you know, most people pay
by credit card, and so there's a record of it,
and so you report all that as income and then
(31:40):
you get taxed on it. Now, moving forward in the future,
do you give great service and people want to give
you a tip, You're not going to have to pay
taxes on it. That is huge for people in the
service industry. I mean I used to bring cash to
tip people all the time. I'm still a big believer
in cash. I'm probably one of the few people well
(32:00):
tell my kids all the time.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Do you have any cash?
Speaker 3 (32:02):
On?
Speaker 2 (32:02):
No, they never have any. It drives me nuts.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Try I'm like, here, take it, take every and I
think it's their way of like extorting dad for more cash.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
I understand that part too.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
I work a lot overtime and I was just wanting,
like the end of the year.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Yeah, you won't. You're not going to get tax on
your overtime.
Speaker 7 (32:21):
Man.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
You keep working it and then save that money. Remember,
money is freedom, Bunny. Money gives you if you can
save some, it is freedom to make choices in your life.
It won't make you happy. And I was poor and
now I have money. I think I could argue I
was happy when I was poor. I can't make that argument.
Linda's like rolling her eyes. But it gives you freedom,
(32:45):
and then you well, do I want to move to
the state? Do I do I want to? Should I
fix my car and get a new car? I mean,
it gives you a lot of freedom. Saving money is important.
Living under your means is important anyway. Eight hundred and
