Speaker 1 (00:00):
Listen, and thanks to this great audience. You know, we're
now on seven hundred and thirty five stations, and you know,
on the biggest cable news network by far in the
country and remain one of its top shows, which I'm
so blessed about. Anyway, we are here, this is gonna
be an interesting night, for sure. There has been a
lot written about it. I will tell you that I
(00:21):
am not debating tonight. I'm basically laying out the questions
and it's I'm gonna let Governor DeSantis and Governor Newsom
go at it, give their answers. I will try to
hold them to answering the question, but beyond that, I'm
gonna let the I will let as much as possible.
I've told both sides this. The debate breathe ninety minutes
(00:44):
is a lot longer. You're not competing with seven other
people on the stage, so in that period of time,
I think it lends itself to a little bit more
breathing room, as long as they don't talk over each other,
which might I might be a challenge, but I'm expecting
maybe not.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
They've been sniping at each each other. Man, it's been
going on for like a year and a half maybe longer,
about the varying policies. At one point it got so
intense and they both run ads in the other's respective states.
That's how personal this has gotten. And but it got
to the point when when Rond de Santis flew up
(01:19):
illegal immigrants to Matha's vineyard and also flew them out
to California, well it is a sanctuary state, where Gavin
Newsom pulled up the statute of what kidnapping is and
basically was suggesting that Rond de Santis could be guilty
of kidnapping. Now, it turned out my next interview with
(01:39):
Governor de Santa's I said, Okay, how do you respond,
is he goes No, they all signed a waiver, they
all volunteered to do it.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
They didn't force them on the plane.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
They wanted to go, and they and then they got
there and they didn't stay twenty four hours at Matha's vineyard,
even though we went and checked there was enough room
in Martha's vineyard available for every single one of the
people that Governor DeSantis had sent up. So obviously all
these issues will come up. Look, I'm not hiding this
(02:10):
from anybody I've told both camps this. I've been as
transparent with both camps. I've known both governors now for
a long time. Personally, I will tell you, and some
of you will hate me for saying this, they're both
really personable people.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
They're very, very smart. Their backgrounds are tremendous.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I've Gavin, you have to say, is right out of
central casting for a politician. Ron DeSantis's background, what Yale, Harvard,
the Naval Academy, I think, I mean, he's served his
country and then they have young families.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's not what's at stake here though.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
And you know there have been some of you that
have been a little bit critical, saying, well, Hannadi, why
are you giving time to Gavin Newsom. I'm like, well,
I watch our President Joe Biden every day and he
doesn't seem to be particularly strong or healthy to me. Cognitively,
he is getting worse. If you have a cognitive decline,
(03:08):
as doctor Ronnie Jackson told us on television this week,
it is degenerative. It means it's never going to all
of a sudden just get better. It's going to get worse.
And that is where I see Joe Biden. I can't
think of a speech or moment he has had where
it's not obvious he's having cognitive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
It used to be less frequent.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That is part of what is known as a degenerative process.
If you've ever known anybody in your life, and it's
a sad thing to watch people you know that suffer
from some type of cognitive decline or you know, full
on Alzheimer's, whatever it happens to be.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
It's it's not fun to watch this.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
You know, I know people, older people, people that I
love and have been fond of, and you're talking to them,
they ask you a question, you answer the question. Two
minutes later, they'll ask you the same question because they
don't remember they asked it.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Or they'll tell you a story and.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Then they'll repeat the story five minutes after that, and
then repeat it later and again and again.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
They're not doing it on purpose. It's an illness. It's
a sickness.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
The question is can somebody that has the most important
job in the entire world of my view, being President
of the United States, be in a cognitive decline. I
am not diagnosing Joe Biden. So what have I been
saying to conservatives? What have I been saying to Republicans,
you better pay attention to the bench of the Democratic
Party because they might go looking at some point between
(04:42):
now and November of next year.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
That's a full year away, a little less than a
full year. Today's November thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
It's the end of the month, but you know, a
good eleven months from now, we're going to be electing
maybe a guy that's not fit for office.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I didn't think he was fit for office.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
In twenty t I was out there kind of like
a soul voice of sanity, stating what I thought was
quite obvious to everybody, but nobody wanted to hear it.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
People were critical of me, and actually I think I
made a mistake.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I think early on I made fun of it, But
as this has now continued, I find nothing funny about it.
Remember I was doing the whole sippy cup and you know,
night night and warm milky and bedtime stories and all
this I was saying about Joe. You know, at the time,
I thought I was just trying to add a little
humor to it. I'm not laughing about it now. Although
(05:34):
those sippy cups that I had produced and gave away,
they're now a collector's item because we didn't make anymore.
One side note, interesting backstory. The person you would least
expect that told me, maybe it's not a good idea
to make fun of somebody if they're struggling like this.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Who'd you think it is? A sweet baby? James? Who
do you think off the top of your head? You
got to speak? It's radio.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I'm like filling airtime waiting.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Who sluggo? Who would you think it might be that
told me? You gotta?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I don't I don't think it comes off well. Good guest,
not Newt Noodle join us later in the program today,
not Rush.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
No, certainly wasn't Levin. Levin.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
He wouldn't tell me that. Uh, he's a big doubt.
He doesn't know what day loweg it is. No, it
was actually Donald Trump. Donald Trump once said to me,
I don't like it when you do that. I said, why,
he goes if it's true, and he's not, Well, you're
making fun of a sick person.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
And I didn't really think of it that way.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
And I'm really but now I'm stopping because like every
time I hear him speak, I'm just I'm humiliated.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I'm embarrassed, all right, We got a lot of stuff
going on.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
We have a lot of stuff in the economy, a
lot of stuff with the Biden crime family, the post
Office is blaming. By the way, there are two point
six billion dollar law on Biden's historic inflation.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
You can't make this up. The US Postal Service.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Now blaming unexpectedly high historic inflation for the major portion
of their six point five billion dollar loss in fiscal
year twenty twenty three. Maybe it's time to just give
it up and let UPS, FedEx and Amazon deliver all
our stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Why don't we do it that way?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Although I would like to insist because I always care
about workers, that if in fact they make that transition,
that everybody that works for the Postal Service has to
get hired as part of the deal.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That's what I was.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
What you know, I love my I love my delivery people.
They're the best.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
These are federal employees.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
It's never going to happen, okay if they don't, if
they can't perform up to UPS standards or can't perform
up to FedEx standards. Listen, a lot of days I'm
outside working out with my sense and you know, UP
comes the UPS truck or.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, but those guys whole ass they're.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
They're on the they're being watched every second.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Of that just to be a monitor. They got so
much they gotta do, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But they get a little extra time when they get
to my house. They know that I'm a talker, so
they give them a little extra time.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
When they had the Hannities house, and.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Here's the biggest funniest story to me of the whole day.
The Biden White House have been pushing this Bidenomics narrative, right, Okay,
they're mystified. They don't know why you, the American people
are so angry. Prices are now officially up twenty percent
on average in less than three years. Sixty one percent
(08:34):
of you, the American people, are now living paycheck to paycheck.
Many of you can't make ends meet. Many of you
have been cashing in pensions early with huge penalties. Many
of you have been using credit cards with interest rates
as hiety as thirty percent just for your bare necessities.
But from Bloomberg, hardly conservative. They said, it now requires
(08:54):
one hundred and nineteen dollars and twenty seven cents to
buy the same good and services a family could afford
with one hundred dollars before the pandemic. Now what does
that mean. Let's say, well, you want natural gas, that's
up twenty nine percent. Great policies, Joe. You want car
insurance that's up thirty three percent. Major appliance is up
(09:16):
twelve percent. If you want to buy a used car,
that's up thirty five percent. If you want to buy
let's see, curtains, they're up twenty percent.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
By the way, i'd go.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
To our friends. What's that blinds dot Com? Of course, yeah,
Rent for most people's up twenty percent, water sewage sixteen percent,
electricity twenty five percent. Restaurant food is up twenty four percent.
If you want the products for your pets, for crying
out loud, even that's up seventeen percent. Now, when Linda
(09:46):
had the obese morbidly obese cat, I mean, in that case,
it probably would have been up one hundred and seventeen percent.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Your obsession with that cat is it's an issue.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Did you or did you not have to send your
cat away to a cat.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
She was a feline of abundance, Like.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
You know, I'm just saying I'm not fat shaming your
fat your cat, really.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
You know, but but you got you fed that cat
so much.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
I want you to face me tonight when you're at
waffle house so I can talk to you.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I'm definitely all right.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But that cat was so obese, morbidly obese, because you
fed it too much.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
No, that's not that's not true.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
First of all. First of all, what did the cat
break into the cabinet and take it? The cat starts?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
If the cat goes down, is my is my favorite
comedian Nate Bargoci says, and he eats a bird, he
doesn't come home and tell me, hey, I had lunch already.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Excuse me.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That cat was the size of four cats in one.
That cat was not capable.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Eat a lot of birds.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That cat was not capable of catching a bird. I'm
just saying it couldn't move. For I could still.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Jump nine stories and get to the top of something.
You know that's fairly athletic. You can jump.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I can jump higher than you can jump higher than
the cat under town fee line of abundance, the one
that looked like a tiger. You know that one good
greet the fee line of abundance. Anyway, So they're mystified
as to, oh, why is that happening? Eight hundred nine
one Seawan.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
We're in.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
We are in Alpharetta, Georgia, the big Blue versus Red
State debate tonight. Looking forward to it. I hope you'll
tune in. It's an hour and a half. It starts
at nine pm sharp Eastern. It is live. We will
do it in Alfaretta. Then we'll do a half hour
wrap up show. Get your analysis on how the candidates
do well, not really candidates, how the politicians do And
it's going to be interesting. I mean, you can't have
(11:36):
more diametrically opposed views or different governing philosophies. Anyway, eight
hundred nine one Sean is our number if you want
to be a part of the program. By the way,
there's a lot of posturing going back between the two
sides and the moments leading up to this debate. The
drama is ridiculous. But anyway, hello, pay attention. Yeah, I know,
(11:56):
there you go. You're in charge of all the papers.
Oh worry, I'll wait unfill time.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
I apologize.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I can't believe some of you are writing me you
don't believe that the cats story is true.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Well you put up a picture.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I'm no, no, because you're not telling the truth. Put
up a picture. Put up a picture of the cat
on Hannity dot com. Why because you're going to be embarronments.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Prerogative is never questioned.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
The cat was the size of five cats, first of all,
because you over fed the cat.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
The f O A in question should not be questioned.
The f O a feeling of abundance.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
The feeling of abundance. You know what woke? What woke school?
Did you go?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
That acronym is going to catch And I'm sticking with it.
I'm just letting you know.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
No, looks, I don't want to quote shame that you
can't use the word Let's say.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
You can definitely use the word fat, only weird people
don't use that word.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Okay, what can I'll say chubby? Is that acceptable?
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Or a feeling of abundance ring to it? Also, be
obese is incredibly insulting and rude. And if anybody called
her that, I would lose it.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
The cat was obese.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah, we're going into commercial karate kid, I'm gonna see
how your chops come up.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Now I've been I've learned.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Oh yeah, maybe you're a little practice.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I've learned from great parents.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Just feeling scrappy never.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Raise a hand. Ever raise a hand. I'll walk away
from a fight.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
I'd let you hit me even can I pick you
where accounts you're gonna fall away from the fight.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
You will not be able to well. I am too fast.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Sean Carrey making America Green one lear Jet Liberal flight
at a time.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
You just can't make this stuff up. Sean Hannity is
on right now, al.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Right twenty five till the top of the hour, eight
hundred and ninety four one.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Shawn is on number. We are in beautiful Alpharetta, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
It's kind of like a homecoming for me because before
I moved to the Fox News Channel in October of
ninety six, I lived in an a jay town.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Called Roswell, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Our affiliate here News Talk seven to fifty WSP also
on FM as well, and a great station, great people,
great friends there, and it's just it's kind of cool
to be back. But we're here for the Blue versus
Red state great debate. Governor Ronda Santas of Florida, Governor
Gavin Newsom of California. Hey, I want to remind you
(14:24):
if you want to killer extended Black Friday deal, I've
got one for you from our friends a Pure Talk,
a veteran owned company. Now remember they're the company that
competes with the big carriers AT and T, Verizon, T Mobile.
They're the company that uses the same exact five G
network as those big carriers, the same cell towers as
those big carriers, but the average family for the same
(14:45):
service saves close to one thousand dollars a year. Now
for their extended Black Friday deal. Right now, they're offering
a free Moto G five G phone from Pure Talk.

only thirty five bucks and you get the Moto G

to fifty, say the keyword save now and talk to
a US Customer service team representative and you will not
regret it. Pound two to fifty, keyword save now get
(15:27):
your free Moto G five G phone with qualifying plan.
As I describe from our friends at Pure talk simply
smarter wireless. So the House GOP are now considering holding
what is a formal vote next month to authorize the
impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, or what we call the
Joe Biden bribery and money laundering scandal. Allegations now GOP
(15:52):
leaders of floating the possibility of this vote during this
closed door meeting with Republican lawmakers and the possible reversal
for House Republicans. This comes amid a growing standoff with
the White House over requests for information related to Biden
and his family, and Republican leaders have said that a
vote on the impeachment investigation was unnecessary, but if they
(16:13):
continue the stonewall, it will make that eat that process
easier to achieve. So the reason that they're even having
to consider this is because they're not being cooperative. Now,
this is on top of the news that we got yesterday.
And by the way, Biden won't commit to debating Trump
or any other Republican in twenty twenty four. Now, why
would that be, Because I don't think he's capable of
(16:35):
debating whatever you're going to think about tonight's debate with
Governor DeSantis and Governor Newsom. You're not going to walk
away thinking these guys have any cognitive decline. The debate
you will watch tonight is not a debate your current
president has the ability to participate it. By the way,
(16:55):
media ie, they've been very favorable in their coverage. Sean
Hannity's Desanta Newsome debate might be the most interesting cable
news event of the year. No pressure, Hannity, you better
don't suck. But anyway, so you know, hopefully it's ninety minutes.
I've organized it, I've hosted it. I'm not going to
be a part of the debate. One thing I will
(17:17):
say at the top I don't want to give away
too much is.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
First of all, I admire both of them for doing it.
They don't have to.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
There's great risk if you get in a boxing you know,
if you get in a boxing ring, you get into
the octagon.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Everyone knows. I love MMA.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I have respect for people that do that. There is
a potential upside and the potential downside for both people.
If they don't come off well during a debate, that's
going to probably stick with them. The only time historically
that we have been able to find that something like
this has happened. We have two non candidates debating was
I believe nineteen sixty was seven and it was Ronald
(17:59):
Reagan versus Robert Kennedy Senior, who was assassinated when he
was running for president in California, And that was a
national tragedies of course, after his brother than JFK had
been assassinated, and then you know, and at another point,
Martin Luther King Junior was assassinated. One of the great
(18:20):
things when I lived in Atlanta, I got to learn
know a lot of the people that worked with and
partnered with MLK. I mean, I really got to know
people and learn about the civil rights movement in a
way that I never had before. And even though maybe
I had different political views, I have a deep respect
for those people that would join hands and you know,
(18:44):
do marches and have fire hoses and dogs sicked on them.
I mean, if you watch those videos, you can't imagine
an America like that. It's sort of like we're listening
to anti semitism. I'm like, my god, this is the
nineteen thirties all over again. But I got to know
those people. I got to know Andy Young, I got
to know Joel Lowry, of the SCLC. I got to
(19:06):
know Josea Williams, who's probably the greatest interview I've ever
had in my life. And every year round Thanksgiving, he'd
call my radio show on Monday.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
We're not going to make it shown.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
That's what he's always had, this kind of gravelly voice,
meaning that he wanted to feed the homeless. He knew
he was gonna make it because he'd always wait till
the Monday before Thanksgiving. And he even made me once,
maybe twice, I don't remember, go down and feed people.
But he would feed anybody that needed a Thanksgiving dinner.
He'd get it done.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Every year.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
People would donate in droves and he was just a
cool guy. Probably the best call I ever had with
him was and he was a reverend and I had
him on the air once and I asked him if
he was dating.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
He said yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I said, oh, okay, tell me about your girlfriend. And
I asked him how old she is? Oh, thirty. You
know he's a little older than thirty. And I go, Reverend,
I mean, you're behaving right, you're following the Good Book.
And his answer was sew, a man's got to do
what a man's got to do. I'm like, what am
I going to do with this guy? He was always
getting in trouble with the law, you know, had a
(20:07):
few instances of maybe having a drink or two, but
he was a man that had a great heart. But
they all had something that I would call great courage.
And my first day on the air in Atlanta, I
got a call from then Mayor Maynard Jackson welcoming me
to his city, which shocked me. You know, I just
(20:29):
got run out of town. When I left Huntsvill, Alabama.
It was a headlined goodbye to the talk show host
from Hell, and I thought that was an interesting welcome.
But I got to know him, and then later Bill Campbell,
who ended up getting in some trouble which was unfortunate
for him. Just a lot of very interesting people, people
that really played a part in and really really risked
(20:52):
their lives for what they believed in and put their
lives at risk anyway.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Biden won't commit to debating anybody.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
You know, former President Trump seems more than eager to
debate President Joe Biden. My strategy if I'm Trump this
time around, shut up, let Joe talk, let him talk, talk, talk, talk,
and talk some more. And then maybe throw in a
couple of questions and then say, can you please explain
(21:20):
what you just mumbled and bumbled and fumbled.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Through you might want we might need an.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Interpreter for what Joe Biden actually says if that debate
were ever to take place anyway, we'll looking forward to
the debate. I will say that every question is going
to be how policy impacts people.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Almost every question. There are some political questions in.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
There, but that's not the gist of this debate is
you've got very different policies in two different states, two
of our largest states, two of our most dynamic governors
in the country. I think this is going to be
interesting for me. It's going to be interesting. And after
I ask the question, I'm out. They've got to answer
the questions on their own. They've got and as I said,
(22:00):
I try to give this room to breathe. One thing
Governor DeSantis has been doing ahead of the debate tonight
is Florida Attorney General, a friend of the show, Ashley Moody,
is holding a press conference to hear from California refugees
who fled the Golden State for Florida.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I guarantee you this is going to be just like
any other debate.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I bet they're gonna have their war rooms and their
fact checkers, and they're this, and they're that.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
And I probably between now and Sunday.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Eight pm Eastern for Sunday Night football, I would say
probably two on one will be mentioned maybe a million times.
And all I'm going to do is ask the question,
you know, fact based questions. That's all I'm asking. So
we'll see. I'm actually excited about it. I'm actually glad
to be doing it. Had to be a part of it.
I think it's courageous for both of them to be
(22:53):
a part of it.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
So we're watching all of this news here today, but
we do have this new news on the Biden family syndicate.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Not good for them.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
A bank investigator, this is a great story that was
responsible for actually detecting and combating money laundering warned in
twenty eighteen of what this person saw as unusual and
quote erratic activity related to more than a dozen wire
transfers of large sums of money to accounts belonging to
Hunter Biden in an email released by the House Oversight Committee.
(23:26):
As of yesterday, a Bank Secrecy Act manager raised concerns
that the payments did not appear to correspond to quote
any services rendered, as well as Chinese efforts to target
children of politicians. The investigator suggested that the bank reevaluate
their relationship with the client. Now, the payments from China
(23:47):
ultimately funded a forty thousand dollars check to Joe Biden
from his brother that had been labeled a loan repayment.
On of loan repayments, I would imagine they can easily
go back and find out when the loan was given,
because I doubt they had forty thousand dollars in cash
sitting around. There's got to be some record of the transaction.
And I know those are questions that the House Ways
(24:08):
and Means Committee is asking, the Oversight Committee's asking. But anyway,
the payments from China ultimately for the forty thousand dollars
supposedly a loan repayment. Now James Comer of Oversight is
now co leading the impeachment inquiry against President Biden. Now
the email from this Bank Secrecy Act manager to an
assistant vice president and brands manager of a financial institution.
(24:31):
Now the names of the investigator, the vice president of
the and the bank have been redacted.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
We have been monitoring the subject customer due to PEP
designation and observations on the account activity, as well as
recent negative news that indicate this entity to be high risk.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Now, a PEP designation is.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Politically exposed person, meaning the individual, through their prominent position
or relationships, could be more susceptible to being involved in
bribery or corruption, which means a lot. Now I'm watching
all this, I'm saying, you know what, this is not
going to go particularly well.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Democrats are suggesting that Hunter Biden's hard drives could have
been manipulated by Rudy Giuliani or Russia, and Jamie Raskin
is saying Republicans are not interested in public Hunter Biden
hearings because it would expose them to great humiliation. No,
James Comer has said that he's fine with the public hearing,
(25:38):
but remember he got a subpoena to be deposed, so
that compels him to be deposed buying closed doors first,
and then after he complies with the law, then they
can have the public hearing.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Because there are things you.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Can ask buying closed doors that you're not going to
be able to ask in the public hearing. Nice try,
but remember Steve Bannon tried that and they ended up
holding him in contempt. Peter Navarro tried that, they ended
up holding him unfairly in contempt.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
There have been all.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
These people that defy these these subpoenas and they never
get charged. The only two in recent years charged happened
to be Trump supporters, Bannon and Navarro. Any accident, I
don't think so. That's where Jim Jordan's investigation into the
weaponization of the DOJ comes in. I'm not sure how
(26:33):
many of you watched the Christmas tree lighting and Rock
Center in New York yesterday, but a bunch of pro
Palestinian protesters clashing with the police. You literally had swastika
waving hamas supporters at this event. Now, this event is
usually for families, young people, They have artists. No, that's
(26:54):
not what happened in New York last night. Chanting River
to the Sea that means the ruction of Israel, you know,
waving Palestinian flag signs calling for the end of the genocide.
Rallieres gathering along Sixth Avenue, that's where the Fox News
channel is alongside hordes of tourists waiting in line to
see the They want to see the tree lighting. They
(27:16):
want to see the different you know, performers perform. Unable
to get to the Christmas tree, an enormous crowd instead
swarmed around the tree outside the Fox News Court building.
That's where where Fox is and houses the New York
Post and the Wall Street Journal. Anyway says Free Palestine,
Free Palestine. One scene climbing on the top of a
(27:37):
pillar bearing the building's address. Another scene carrying a massive
sign bearing a swastika comparing the IDF to Nazis, what
part of this, you know, rape, kidnap, murder, torture, hostage taking.
Are they not understanding because it would be the equivalent
of losing forty thousand Americans in a single day if
(27:59):
you look at extrapolate out for population. Iran has sent
one of their drones to harass and intimidate one of
America's most powerful aircraft carriers. I would say, if I'm
Joe Biden, that might be a good opportunity to shoot
that sucker down. I don't know, considering what there's been
seventy five attacks against American soldiers in Iraq and Syria.
(28:21):
Gallup finding for the first time in decades more Democrats
side with Palestinians than with Israel. All you need to
know about the modern leftists Radicalized Democratic Party UK telegraphed
the ten month old Israeli baby hostage has now died
after Hamas handed him over to a rival terror group.
(28:42):
You just take a ten month old, let's kill the baby.
That happens. People deny this. Did you see what happened
in Oakland? We've played that last night. Wow, unbelievable. Anyway,
eight hundred and ninety four one sean our number if
you want to be a part of the program. We
have new Kingrich coming up, We have Christinoan coming up.
Continue from Alpharetta, Georgia, Hannity Tonight All starts at nine
(29:04):
Eastern hour and a half. Debate Governor Ron De Santis
versus Governor Gavin Newsom read versus Blue State debate And
remember what happens in states often impacts your life a
lot more than what happens in Washington.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
People seem to forget that.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
All right, as we continue, we are in beautiful Alpharetta, Georgia.
Kind of like a homecoming for me, left here twenty
eight years ago to start work at the Fox News
Channel on the very first day.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Honored to still be here.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Our great state to blue state red state debate tonight,
Governor rond De Santis of Florida versus Governor Gavin Newsom
of California.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
That's all coming up nine Eastern Hannity, I'm Fox.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
It's an hour and a half debate and a half
hour of analysis when we come back New Gingrich later
on Christy Nome As we continue from Georgia,
Listen, and thanks to this great audience. You know, we're
now on seven hundred and thirty five stations, and you know,
on the biggest cable news network by far in the
country and remain one of its top shows, which I'm
so blessed about. Anyway, we are here, this is gonna
be an interesting night, for sure. There has been a
lot written about it. I will tell you that I
(00:21):
am not debating tonight. I'm basically laying out the questions
and it's I'm gonna let Governor DeSantis and Governor Newsom
go at it, give their answers. I will try to
hold them to answering the question, but beyond that, I'm
gonna let the I will let as much as possible.
I've told both sides this. The debate breathe ninety minutes
(00:44):
is a lot longer. You're not competing with seven other
people on the stage, so in that period of time,
I think it lends itself to a little bit more
breathing room, as long as they don't talk over each other,
which might I might be a challenge, but I'm expecting
maybe not.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
They've been sniping at each each other. Man, it's been
going on for like a year and a half maybe longer,
about the varying policies. At one point it got so
intense and they both run ads in the other's respective states.
That's how personal this has gotten. And but it got
to the point when when Rond de Santis flew up
(01:19):
illegal immigrants to Matha's vineyard and also flew them out
to California, well it is a sanctuary state, where Gavin
Newsom pulled up the statute of what kidnapping is and
basically was suggesting that Rond de Santis could be guilty
of kidnapping. Now, it turned out my next interview with
(01:39):
Governor de Santa's I said, Okay, how do you respond,
is he goes No, they all signed a waiver, they
all volunteered to do it.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
They didn't force them on the plane.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
They wanted to go, and they and then they got
there and they didn't stay twenty four hours at Matha's vineyard,
even though we went and checked there was enough room
in Martha's vineyard available for every single one of the
people that Governor DeSantis had sent up. So obviously all
these issues will come up. Look, I'm not hiding this
(02:10):
from anybody I've told both camps this. I've been as
transparent with both camps. I've known both governors now for
a long time. Personally, I will tell you, and some
of you will hate me for saying this, they're both
really personable people.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
They're very, very smart. Their backgrounds are tremendous.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I've Gavin, you have to say, is right out of
central casting for a politician. Ron DeSantis's background, what Yale, Harvard,
the Naval Academy, I think, I mean, he's served his
country and then they have young families.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's not what's at stake here though.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
And you know there have been some of you that
have been a little bit critical, saying, well, Hannadi, why
are you giving time to Gavin Newsom. I'm like, well,
I watch our President Joe Biden every day and he
doesn't seem to be particularly strong or healthy to me. Cognitively,
he is getting worse. If you have a cognitive decline,
(03:08):
as doctor Ronnie Jackson told us on television this week,
it is degenerative. It means it's never going to all
of a sudden just get better. It's going to get worse.
And that is where I see Joe Biden. I can't
think of a speech or moment he has had where
it's not obvious he's having cognitive issues.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
It used to be less frequent.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That is part of what is known as a degenerative process.
If you've ever known anybody in your life, and it's
a sad thing to watch people you know that suffer
from some type of cognitive decline or you know, full
on Alzheimer's, whatever it happens to be.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
It's it's not fun to watch this.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
You know, I know people, older people, people that I
love and have been fond of, and you're talking to them,
they ask you a question, you answer the question. Two
minutes later, they'll ask you the same question because they
don't remember they asked it.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Or they'll tell you a story and.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Then they'll repeat the story five minutes after that, and
then repeat it later and again and again.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
They're not doing it on purpose. It's an illness. It's
a sickness.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
The question is can somebody that has the most important
job in the entire world of my view, being President
of the United States, be in a cognitive decline. I
am not diagnosing Joe Biden. So what have I been
saying to conservatives? What have I been saying to Republicans,
you better pay attention to the bench of the Democratic
Party because they might go looking at some point between
(04:42):
now and November of next year.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
That's a full year away, a little less than a
full year. Today's November thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
It's the end of the month, but you know, a
good eleven months from now, we're going to be electing
maybe a guy that's not fit for office.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I didn't think he was fit for office.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
In twenty t I was out there kind of like
a soul voice of sanity, stating what I thought was
quite obvious to everybody, but nobody wanted to hear it.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
People were critical of me, and actually I think I
made a mistake.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I think early on I made fun of it, But
as this has now continued, I find nothing funny about it.
Remember I was doing the whole sippy cup and you know,
night night and warm milky and bedtime stories and all
this I was saying about Joe. You know, at the time,
I thought I was just trying to add a little
humor to it. I'm not laughing about it now. Although
(05:34):
those sippy cups that I had produced and gave away,
they're now a collector's item because we didn't make anymore.
One side note, interesting backstory. The person you would least
expect that told me, maybe it's not a good idea
to make fun of somebody if they're struggling like this.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Who'd you think it is? A sweet baby? James? Who
do you think off the top of your head? You
got to speak? It's radio.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I'm like filling airtime waiting.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Who sluggo? Who would you think it might be that
told me? You gotta?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
I don't I don't think it comes off well. Good guest,
not Newt Noodle join us later in the program today,
not Rush.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
No, certainly wasn't Levin. Levin.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
He wouldn't tell me that. Uh, he's a big doubt.
He doesn't know what day loweg it is. No, it
was actually Donald Trump. Donald Trump once said to me,
I don't like it when you do that. I said, why,
he goes if it's true, and he's not, Well, you're
making fun of a sick person.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
And I didn't really think of it that way.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
And I'm really but now I'm stopping because like every
time I hear him speak, I'm just I'm humiliated.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I'm embarrassed, all right, We got a lot of stuff
going on.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
We have a lot of stuff in the economy, a
lot of stuff with the Biden crime family, the post
Office is blaming. By the way, there are two point
six billion dollar law on Biden's historic inflation.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
You can't make this up. The US Postal Service.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Now blaming unexpectedly high historic inflation for the major portion
of their six point five billion dollar loss in fiscal
year twenty twenty three. Maybe it's time to just give
it up and let UPS, FedEx and Amazon deliver all
our stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Why don't we do it that way?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Although I would like to insist because I always care
about workers, that if in fact they make that transition,
that everybody that works for the Postal Service has to
get hired as part of the deal.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That's what I was.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
What you know, I love my I love my delivery people.
They're the best.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
These are federal employees.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
It's never going to happen, okay if they don't, if
they can't perform up to UPS standards or can't perform
up to FedEx standards. Listen, a lot of days I'm
outside working out with my sense and you know, UP
comes the UPS truck or.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, but those guys whole ass they're.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
They're on the they're being watched every second.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Of that just to be a monitor. They got so
much they gotta do, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But they get a little extra time when they get
to my house. They know that I'm a talker, so
they give them a little extra time.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
When they had the Hannities house, and.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Here's the biggest funniest story to me of the whole day.
The Biden White House have been pushing this Bidenomics narrative, right, Okay,
they're mystified. They don't know why you, the American people
are so angry. Prices are now officially up twenty percent
on average in less than three years. Sixty one percent
(08:34):
of you, the American people, are now living paycheck to paycheck.
Many of you can't make ends meet. Many of you
have been cashing in pensions early with huge penalties. Many
of you have been using credit cards with interest rates
as hiety as thirty percent just for your bare necessities.
But from Bloomberg, hardly conservative. They said, it now requires
(08:54):
one hundred and nineteen dollars and twenty seven cents to
buy the same good and services a family could afford
with one hundred dollars before the pandemic. Now what does
that mean. Let's say, well, you want natural gas, that's
up twenty nine percent. Great policies, Joe. You want car
insurance that's up thirty three percent. Major appliance is up
(09:16):
twelve percent. If you want to buy a used car,
that's up thirty five percent. If you want to buy
let's see, curtains, they're up twenty percent.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
By the way, i'd go.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
To our friends. What's that blinds dot Com? Of course, yeah,
Rent for most people's up twenty percent, water sewage sixteen percent,
electricity twenty five percent. Restaurant food is up twenty four percent.
If you want the products for your pets, for crying
out loud, even that's up seventeen percent. Now, when Linda
(09:46):
had the obese morbidly obese cat, I mean, in that case,
it probably would have been up one hundred and seventeen percent.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Your obsession with that cat is it's an issue.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Did you or did you not have to send your
cat away to a cat.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
She was a feline of abundance, Like.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
You know, I'm just saying I'm not fat shaming your
fat your cat, really.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
You know, but but you got you fed that cat
so much.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
I want you to face me tonight when you're at
waffle house so I can talk to you.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I'm definitely all right.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But that cat was so obese, morbidly obese, because you
fed it too much.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
No, that's not that's not true.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
First of all. First of all, what did the cat
break into the cabinet and take it? The cat starts?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
If the cat goes down, is my is my favorite
comedian Nate Bargoci says, and he eats a bird, he
doesn't come home and tell me, hey, I had lunch already.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Excuse me.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That cat was the size of four cats in one.
That cat was not capable.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Eat a lot of birds.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
That cat was not capable of catching a bird. I'm
just saying it couldn't move. For I could still.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Jump nine stories and get to the top of something.
You know that's fairly athletic. You can jump.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I can jump higher than you can jump higher than
the cat under town fee line of abundance, the one
that looked like a tiger. You know that one good
greet the fee line of abundance. Anyway, So they're mystified
as to, oh, why is that happening? Eight hundred nine
one Seawan.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
We're in.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
We are in Alpharetta, Georgia, the big Blue versus Red
State debate tonight. Looking forward to it. I hope you'll
tune in. It's an hour and a half. It starts
at nine pm sharp Eastern. It is live. We will
do it in Alfaretta. Then we'll do a half hour
wrap up show. Get your analysis on how the candidates
do well, not really candidates, how the politicians do And
it's going to be interesting. I mean, you can't have
(11:36):
more diametrically opposed views or different governing philosophies. Anyway, eight
hundred nine one Sean is our number if you want
to be a part of the program. By the way,
there's a lot of posturing going back between the two
sides and the moments leading up to this debate. The
drama is ridiculous. But anyway, hello, pay attention. Yeah, I know,
(11:56):
there you go. You're in charge of all the papers.
Oh worry, I'll wait unfill time.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
I apologize.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I can't believe some of you are writing me you
don't believe that the cats story is true.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Well you put up a picture.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I'm no, no, because you're not telling the truth. Put
up a picture. Put up a picture of the cat
on Hannity dot com. Why because you're going to be embarronments.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Prerogative is never questioned.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
The cat was the size of five cats, first of all,
because you over fed the cat.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
The f O A in question should not be questioned.
The f O a feeling of abundance.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
The feeling of abundance. You know what woke? What woke school?
Did you go?
Speaker 3 (12:40):
That acronym is going to catch And I'm sticking with it.
I'm just letting you know.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
No, looks, I don't want to quote shame that you
can't use the word Let's say.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
You can definitely use the word fat, only weird people
don't use that word.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Okay, what can I'll say chubby? Is that acceptable?
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Or a feeling of abundance ring to it? Also, be
obese is incredibly insulting and rude. And if anybody called
her that, I would lose it.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
The cat was obese.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah, we're going into commercial karate kid, I'm gonna see
how your chops come up.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Now I've been I've learned.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Oh yeah, maybe you're a little practice.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I've learned from great parents.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Just feeling scrappy never.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Raise a hand. Ever raise a hand. I'll walk away
from a fight.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
I'd let you hit me even can I pick you
where accounts you're gonna fall away from the fight.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
You will not be able to well. I am too fast.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Sean Carrey making America Green one lear Jet Liberal flight
at a time.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
You just can't make this stuff up. Sean Hannity is
on right now, al.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Right twenty five till the top of the hour, eight
hundred and ninety four one.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Shawn is on number. We are in beautiful Alpharetta, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
It's kind of like a homecoming for me because before
I moved to the Fox News Channel in October of
ninety six, I lived in an a jay town.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Called Roswell, Georgia.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Our affiliate here News Talk seven to fifty WSP also
on FM as well, and a great station, great people,
great friends there, and it's just it's kind of cool
to be back. But we're here for the Blue versus
Red state great debate. Governor Ronda Santas of Florida, Governor
Gavin Newsom of California. Hey, I want to remind you
(14:24):
if you want to killer extended Black Friday deal, I've
got one for you from our friends a Pure Talk,
a veteran owned company. Now remember they're the company that
competes with the big carriers AT and T, Verizon, T Mobile.
They're the company that uses the same exact five G
network as those big carriers, the same cell towers as
those big carriers, but the average family for the same
(14:45):
service saves close to one thousand dollars a year. Now
for their extended Black Friday deal. Right now, they're offering
a free Moto G five G phone from Pure Talk.
No gimmicks, no traded necessary. Simply sign up for Pure
Talks unlimited talk, unlimited text, fifteen gig data plan. It's
only thirty five bucks and you get the Moto G

They make it simple, fast and easy. Dial pound two
to fifty, say the keyword save now and talk to
a US Customer service team representative and you will not
regret it. Pound two to fifty, keyword save now get
(15:27):
your free Moto G five G phone with qualifying plan.
As I describe from our friends at Pure talk simply
smarter wireless. So the House GOP are now considering holding
what is a formal vote next month to authorize the
impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, or what we call the
Joe Biden bribery and money laundering scandal. Allegations now GOP
(15:52):
leaders of floating the possibility of this vote during this
closed door meeting with Republican lawmakers and the possible reversal
for House Republicans. This comes amid a growing standoff with
the White House over requests for information related to Biden
and his family, and Republican leaders have said that a
vote on the impeachment investigation was unnecessary, but if they
(16:13):
continue the stonewall, it will make that eat that process
easier to achieve. So the reason that they're even having
to consider this is because they're not being cooperative. Now,
this is on top of the news that we got yesterday.
And by the way, Biden won't commit to debating Trump
or any other Republican in twenty twenty four. Now, why
would that be, Because I don't think he's capable of
(16:35):
debating whatever you're going to think about tonight's debate with
Governor DeSantis and Governor Newsom. You're not going to walk
away thinking these guys have any cognitive decline. The debate
you will watch tonight is not a debate your current
president has the ability to participate it. By the way,
(16:55):
media ie, they've been very favorable in their coverage. Sean
Hannity's Desanta Newsome debate might be the most interesting cable
news event of the year. No pressure, Hannity, you better
don't suck. But anyway, so you know, hopefully it's ninety minutes.
I've organized it, I've hosted it. I'm not going to
be a part of the debate. One thing I will
(17:17):
say at the top I don't want to give away
too much is.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
First of all, I admire both of them for doing it.
They don't have to.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
There's great risk if you get in a boxing you know,
if you get in a boxing ring, you get into
the octagon.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Everyone knows. I love MMA.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I have respect for people that do that. There is
a potential upside and the potential downside for both people.
If they don't come off well during a debate, that's
going to probably stick with them. The only time historically
that we have been able to find that something like
this has happened. We have two non candidates debating was
I believe nineteen sixty was seven and it was Ronald
(17:59):
Reagan versus Robert Kennedy Senior, who was assassinated when he
was running for president in California, And that was a
national tragedies of course, after his brother than JFK had
been assassinated, and then you know, and at another point,
Martin Luther King Junior was assassinated. One of the great
(18:20):
things when I lived in Atlanta, I got to learn
know a lot of the people that worked with and
partnered with MLK. I mean, I really got to know
people and learn about the civil rights movement in a
way that I never had before. And even though maybe
I had different political views, I have a deep respect
for those people that would join hands and you know,
(18:44):
do marches and have fire hoses and dogs sicked on them.
I mean, if you watch those videos, you can't imagine
an America like that. It's sort of like we're listening
to anti semitism. I'm like, my god, this is the
nineteen thirties all over again. But I got to know
those people. I got to know Andy Young, I got
to know Joel Lowry, of the SCLC. I got to
(19:06):
know Josea Williams, who's probably the greatest interview I've ever
had in my life. And every year round Thanksgiving, he'd
call my radio show on Monday.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
We're not going to make it shown.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
That's what he's always had, this kind of gravelly voice,
meaning that he wanted to feed the homeless. He knew
he was gonna make it because he'd always wait till
the Monday before Thanksgiving. And he even made me once,
maybe twice, I don't remember, go down and feed people.
But he would feed anybody that needed a Thanksgiving dinner.
He'd get it done.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Every year.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
People would donate in droves and he was just a
cool guy. Probably the best call I ever had with
him was and he was a reverend and I had
him on the air once and I asked him if
he was dating.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
He said yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I said, oh, okay, tell me about your girlfriend. And
I asked him how old she is? Oh, thirty. You
know he's a little older than thirty. And I go, Reverend,
I mean, you're behaving right, you're following the Good Book.
And his answer was sew, a man's got to do
what a man's got to do. I'm like, what am
I going to do with this guy? He was always
getting in trouble with the law, you know, had a
(20:07):
few instances of maybe having a drink or two, but
he was a man that had a great heart. But
they all had something that I would call great courage.
And my first day on the air in Atlanta, I
got a call from then Mayor Maynard Jackson welcoming me
to his city, which shocked me. You know, I just
(20:29):
got run out of town. When I left Huntsvill, Alabama.
It was a headlined goodbye to the talk show host
from Hell, and I thought that was an interesting welcome.
But I got to know him, and then later Bill Campbell,
who ended up getting in some trouble which was unfortunate
for him. Just a lot of very interesting people, people
that really played a part in and really really risked
(20:52):
their lives for what they believed in and put their
lives at risk anyway.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Biden won't commit to debating anybody.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
You know, former President Trump seems more than eager to
debate President Joe Biden. My strategy if I'm Trump this
time around, shut up, let Joe talk, let him talk, talk, talk, talk,
and talk some more. And then maybe throw in a
couple of questions and then say, can you please explain
(21:20):
what you just mumbled and bumbled and fumbled.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Through you might want we might need an.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Interpreter for what Joe Biden actually says if that debate
were ever to take place anyway, we'll looking forward to
the debate. I will say that every question is going
to be how policy impacts people.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Almost every question. There are some political questions in.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
There, but that's not the gist of this debate is
you've got very different policies in two different states, two
of our largest states, two of our most dynamic governors
in the country. I think this is going to be
interesting for me. It's going to be interesting. And after
I ask the question, I'm out. They've got to answer
the questions on their own. They've got and as I said,
(22:00):
I try to give this room to breathe. One thing
Governor DeSantis has been doing ahead of the debate tonight
is Florida Attorney General, a friend of the show, Ashley Moody,
is holding a press conference to hear from California refugees
who fled the Golden State for Florida.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I guarantee you this is going to be just like
any other debate.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I bet they're gonna have their war rooms and their
fact checkers, and they're this, and they're that.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
And I probably between now and Sunday.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Eight pm Eastern for Sunday Night football, I would say
probably two on one will be mentioned maybe a million times.
And all I'm going to do is ask the question,
you know, fact based questions. That's all I'm asking. So
we'll see. I'm actually excited about it. I'm actually glad
to be doing it. Had to be a part of it.
I think it's courageous for both of them to be
(22:53):
a part of it.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
So we're watching all of this news here today, but
we do have this new news on the Biden family syndicate.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Not good for them.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
A bank investigator, this is a great story that was
responsible for actually detecting and combating money laundering warned in
twenty eighteen of what this person saw as unusual and
quote erratic activity related to more than a dozen wire
transfers of large sums of money to accounts belonging to
Hunter Biden in an email released by the House Oversight Committee.
(23:26):
As of yesterday, a Bank Secrecy Act manager raised concerns
that the payments did not appear to correspond to quote
any services rendered, as well as Chinese efforts to target
children of politicians. The investigator suggested that the bank reevaluate
their relationship with the client. Now, the payments from China
(23:47):
ultimately funded a forty thousand dollars check to Joe Biden
from his brother that had been labeled a loan repayment.
On of loan repayments, I would imagine they can easily
go back and find out when the loan was given,
because I doubt they had forty thousand dollars in cash
sitting around. There's got to be some record of the transaction.
And I know those are questions that the House Ways
(24:08):
and Means Committee is asking, the Oversight Committee's asking. But anyway,
the payments from China ultimately for the forty thousand dollars
supposedly a loan repayment. Now James Comer of Oversight is
now co leading the impeachment inquiry against President Biden. Now
the email from this Bank Secrecy Act manager to an
assistant vice president and brands manager of a financial institution.
(24:31):
Now the names of the investigator, the vice president of
the and the bank have been redacted.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
We have been monitoring the subject customer due to PEP
designation and observations on the account activity, as well as
recent negative news that indicate this entity to be high risk.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Now, a PEP designation is.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Politically exposed person, meaning the individual, through their prominent position
or relationships, could be more susceptible to being involved in
bribery or corruption, which means a lot. Now I'm watching
all this, I'm saying, you know what, this is not
going to go particularly well.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Democrats are suggesting that Hunter Biden's hard drives could have
been manipulated by Rudy Giuliani or Russia, and Jamie Raskin
is saying Republicans are not interested in public Hunter Biden
hearings because it would expose them to great humiliation. No,
James Comer has said that he's fine with the public hearing,
(25:38):
but remember he got a subpoena to be deposed, so
that compels him to be deposed buying closed doors first,
and then after he complies with the law, then they
can have the public hearing.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Because there are things you.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Can ask buying closed doors that you're not going to
be able to ask in the public hearing. Nice try,
but remember Steve Bannon tried that and they ended up
holding him in contempt. Peter Navarro tried that, they ended
up holding him unfairly in contempt.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
There have been all.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
These people that defy these these subpoenas and they never
get charged. The only two in recent years charged happened
to be Trump supporters, Bannon and Navarro. Any accident, I
don't think so. That's where Jim Jordan's investigation into the
weaponization of the DOJ comes in. I'm not sure how
(26:33):
many of you watched the Christmas tree lighting and Rock
Center in New York yesterday, but a bunch of pro
Palestinian protesters clashing with the police. You literally had swastika
waving hamas supporters at this event. Now, this event is
usually for families, young people, They have artists. No, that's
(26:54):
not what happened in New York last night. Chanting River
to the Sea that means the ruction of Israel, you know,
waving Palestinian flag signs calling for the end of the genocide.
Rallieres gathering along Sixth Avenue, that's where the Fox News
channel is alongside hordes of tourists waiting in line to
see the They want to see the tree lighting. They
(27:16):
want to see the different you know, performers perform. Unable
to get to the Christmas tree, an enormous crowd instead
swarmed around the tree outside the Fox News Court building.
That's where where Fox is and houses the New York
Post and the Wall Street Journal. Anyway says Free Palestine,
Free Palestine. One scene climbing on the top of a
(27:37):
pillar bearing the building's address. Another scene carrying a massive
sign bearing a swastika comparing the IDF to Nazis, what
part of this, you know, rape, kidnap, murder, torture, hostage taking.
Are they not understanding because it would be the equivalent
of losing forty thousand Americans in a single day if
(27:59):
you look at extrapolate out for population. Iran has sent
one of their drones to harass and intimidate one of
America's most powerful aircraft carriers. I would say, if I'm
Joe Biden, that might be a good opportunity to shoot
that sucker down. I don't know, considering what there's been
seventy five attacks against American soldiers in Iraq and Syria.
(28:21):
Gallup finding for the first time in decades more Democrats
side with Palestinians than with Israel. All you need to
know about the modern leftists Radicalized Democratic Party UK telegraphed
the ten month old Israeli baby hostage has now died
after Hamas handed him over to a rival terror group.
(28:42):
You just take a ten month old, let's kill the baby.
That happens. People deny this. Did you see what happened
in Oakland? We've played that last night. Wow, unbelievable. Anyway,
eight hundred and ninety four one sean our number if
you want to be a part of the program. We
have new Kingrich coming up, We have Christinoan coming up.
