Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information
overload in the final hour of the Sean Hannity Show.
All Right, News round Up and Information Overload Hour. Here's
our toll free telephone number if you want to be
a part of the program. It is eight hundred and
ninety four to one Sean if you want to join us.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
It is sad, it is tragic. It is growing by
the day.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
It is just outright corruption at a level that is breathtaking.
And I'm talking about the Minnesota Somali fraud scandal. It
looks like we just hit the tip of the Iceberg
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer warning last night that
this fraud found in Minnesota is likely more widespread than
Democratic than Democrats want voters to believe. We had Brooke
(00:45):
Rollins on the program saying, you know, she's trying to
get a handle on programs like snap. We had memet
Oz doctor Oz talking about how bad it is, how
you know. For example, in one particular program that they
had on autis in twenty eighteen, they went from three
billion who were whopping four hundred billion. It's institutionalized fraud
(01:07):
and we're learning that. Tim Walls was warned about it
by whistleblowers, he ignored it. And as Minnesota is Somali's
welfare fraud scandaled Widened Walls is inviting you know, more
people from Somalia to get involved and to his state.
Minneapolis Star Tribune new documents raised more questions. This is
(01:27):
a flashback from twenty nineteen about Congresswoman Omar's marital history,
impossible immigration fraud. We're in a deposition Omar suggested she
was unaware that she violated tax law by filing a
married joint return with the wrong husband. How is that
humanly possible? And don't blame me for that story, blame
(01:49):
the Minneapolis Star Tribute. Now former Speaker of the House
new Kingrich is taking this on. Don't forget he has
his bestseller out, Trump's Triumph, America's Greatest comeback. But he's
here to break down this fraud. And he's pointed out
four very important points about this. And you know, as
(02:09):
now the Senate is dealing with instead of the you know,
Affordable Care Act, that's not affordable, and millions lose their doctors,
millions lose their plans. Nobody saves on average twenty five
hundred dollars a year. No, we're painting about on average
three hundred plus percent more and over forty percent of
the country have but one Obamacare exchange option. They're talking
(02:31):
about giving money directly to citizens so they can better
spend their healthcare dollars. Anyway, Former Speaker of the House,
New Gingridge, Now you in Switzerland. I know, Callista, your
beautiful wife is now the ambassador there and Lichtenstein.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
I guess she's doing both. But are you in the States.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I'm actually in Chicago in a series of meetings on healthcare.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Why the hell would you want to be in Chicago?
You know it's very dangerous there, well.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Too bad a day here. It's a great city with
a terrible government, I guess is the way I would put.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
A great city where on any average weekend you can
predict how many people will be shot and shot and killed,
and nobody ever pays attention to it, nobody ever changes it.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I know. It's it's the strangest thing, and it's partially
because it most most of the killings tend to be
on the South side, and everybody else in the city
just drugs their shoulders. It's it is tragic, how bad
the city government, how corrupt the city politics are, because
because it is a great city and it's continuing a
(03:36):
great deal in American history. But one state away from
the corruption you were describing, I have gotten very involved
in this whole issue of whether or not big government
socialism inherently leads to corruption because of the way the
bureaucracy works, in the way that the money is spent,
(03:56):
and the attitude people build under socialism. And soon I
was involved, initially from the standpoint of a brilliant book
called The Failure Factory, which is a study of the
Baltimore Schools, and just you know, they take money and
they don't deliver, and you would and then you think
of that, frankly as fraud or his corruption. But then
(04:19):
along came this this thing in Minnesota and that people
need to get their head around us. We're talking about
a city, the city of Minneapolis, and we're talking about
an estimated one billion dollars stolen from the taxpayers in
the city of Minneapolis. But has to be, per capita,
(04:44):
the biggest corruption scandal in American history. And what happened,
in part was that some of the elements of the
Somali Communion Let's be clear, there a lot of Somalians
who are hardworking and honest, but there's a corruption coming
out of Somalia, which has been historically rated as one
of the two or three most corrupt countries in the world.
(05:05):
And so people arrive and they look around, and the
bureaucracy says, can we give you money? And I said,
well sure, I mean, if you really want to give
me money, I don't mind. So they set up a
whole series of small companies that are going to feed
the children, except they don't. They take the money to
(05:27):
send the use some of it to buy property back
in Somalia. Some of it apparently ended up with the
terrorist organization Al Shabama in Mogadishu. So, in effect, the
report that was a brilliant report done by the Manhattan
Institute starts by asking the question with the Minnesota an
(05:48):
American taxpayer literally funding al Shabab, which is a explicitly
terrorist opper organization in Somalia. So they learn how to
do this, and they say, well where else can we go?
And they discover a program to help senior citizens and
to help people who need housing, and so they set
(06:09):
up companies to take money there and provide, of course,
neither housing nor services, but they keep getting paid by
the state government because Tim Waltz, who is just a
hopelessly dumb left wing politician, you can't believe that people.
If you offer people money, they will take it. And
(06:30):
then they say, well, where else can we turn? And
they go to a program. I think in some ways
this is the most despicable of the three. They go
to a program designed to help children with autism. They
then pay families a monthly fee for certifying that their
child is autistic, even though they're not. So you're a
(06:51):
local family, and somebody show those up, says high, we
can pay between thirty and one hundred and fifty dollars
the money if you're willing to sign a paper child
is autistic. So they then get that money.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Now Here you.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Have three parallel streams of money, all of them stolen.
And the US attorney said, clearly the biggest zone of
corruption and fraud he's ever seen. They've already had convicted
fifty people. They have another twenty five they're putting on trial.
But this is just a drop in the bucket. The
(07:24):
state government, under all this pressure, has now suspended fourteen
different programs that are being re audited to see how
many of them are also corrupt. And I would argue
that this is the natural outcome of big government socialism
because it sets up a system one where it says
you are the government should give you money. Why why
(07:47):
aren't you getting your government money? Two bureaucrats are inherently
incapable of catching up with the cook. Now, the bureaucrat
goes home at five, they take the weekend off. The
crooks round to eight or nine nights stealing. If they
feel short, they'll come out on side and Sunday and steal.
So the bureaucrat never catches up. And of course you've
(08:09):
now had whistleblowers come out of the woodwork in Minnesota
and say they kept trying to tell them, these are
people in the government. He said, look, we tried to
tell our bosses that this was crazy, and they just
simply would not look listen to us. And they told
us to shut up because they were afraid that to
look at Somalians would be seen as racism, and therefore
(08:31):
it was better let them steal than it was to
look bad. Uh. And then a number of people have
now signed statements to that effect that they were actively
inside the government saying this can't be legal, this has
to be fraud. And the government of Tim Waltsh just
said shut your mouth or you'll sound like a racist.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, And there is a vote component to that as well.
And the vote component is, oh, okay, we give people,
you know, free money, why wouldn't they put us back
in power. You know, there's a debate like we're talking about,
and what you're describing here is how these outdated bureaucracies
are incapable of effectively you know, monitoring, policing, you know,
(09:20):
what becomes institutionalized theft. And this this is one of
the biggest examples, as you point out, in history. But
that is the history of socialism, statism, Marxism, redistributionism. I
don't care what name you give it, but it always
ends the same way, and that is unfulfilled promises more
(09:43):
poverty than when you started corruption.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I'll add that to the list.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And at the end of the day, you give up
a degree of freedom that you can't calculate till it's
all said and done.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
In the name of false security.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
The whole Green New Deal is about taking care of
everybody from cradle to grave from womb to the tomb.
And if you look at institutions, they don't. They opened
up our borders and they compromised our national security, and
Americans are dying.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
We have known terrorists in the country.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
If you look at defund dismantle Nobel and reimagine the
police that has resulted in a disaster. When you have
regular policing as the President approved in DC, guess what,
lives are saved. They could do the same thing in
Chicago if they weren't so resistant to it, and you
could duplicate that model around the country and lives and
people would be able to pursue happiness because they have
(10:35):
law and order and safety and security. But on all
of these major issues, the left has doubled down. It's
Kasmine Crockett now running in Texas to be a Senator.
It's a woman that hates Nashville, that hates country music
wants to be a congress person elected in Nashville. It's
(10:57):
Mamdani winning in New York. It's the AO see the
squad in charge of the Democratic Party along with Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know, I.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Don't know whether to jump for joy because I think
Republicans have better chances of winning elections, or to soberly
look at this as a real threat to the system
of government that has made us the greatest country God
gave man.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, I think as we approach our two hundred and
fiftieth anniversary as a country dedicated to freedom and the
rule of law, we have to recognize that there's a
substantial number of people in this country who do not
share our values, who do not believe in the constitution,
who do not believe in the rule of law, and
(11:44):
that the level of corruption when you go, for example,
of the city schools, which routinely lie and routinely steal
money because they're not providing services. When you look at
the scale of theft in Medicare and Medicaid. We have
(12:05):
become a country in which a significant minority is committed
to the idea that if they can, if they can
steal it and keep it, then they're really smart and
the rest of us are really dumb. And this is
going to require, I think, a very deep, profound reshaping
(12:26):
of the core values and getting back to a principle
which was Jefferson and Adams and Franklin and all the
founding fathers. George Washington Bill insid this principle that you
can have a free government if you have of people
willing to obey morality, willing to obey the law, willing
(12:47):
to be patriots. But if you lose those values, then
you're only going to lose the country. And I think,
I think it's a very big trip. I'm very sad,
and I'm going to be very curious. For example, to
see in Minnesota where people are gaming Klobashar, who's a
pretty decent Democrat, pretty responsible person, well, see now that
(13:08):
a big problem because she has a very large Somali community,
She has a very large left wing base in Minneapolis,
which is you cannot as a Democrat win in Minnesota
if you lose the base in Annapolis. And yet she knows,
she has to know that this is a scandal of
(13:30):
historic proportions and that it is a really sad commentary
when the local congresswoman stands up and defends the crooks
and attacks the US government for actually wanting to protect
the taxpayer's money.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Continue now, former Speaker of the House New Gingrich is
with us.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Ask you this because there is an appeal to people
that the government is going to take away all their
fears all their anxieties guarantee that every aspect of their
life will in fact be taken care of.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
There's an appeal to that.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
The Democrats now seem to have adopted that in their
new radicalism that leads their party.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
How far does it go? We have less than a minute.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Well, look, I think this is one of the great
crises in American history. We'll see how big a disaster mondamious,
But it seems in the biggest cities Chicago, with Los Angeles,
New York, you can be a disaster for a long time.
If you look at our school systems, we have seen
a level of corruption which people have not talked out about,
(14:31):
have been open and blunt about. That is astonishing. So
I think this is a genuine fight for the very
nature of America. And I hope that most Democrats will
end up being so disgusted by things like the Minneapolis
scandal that in fact they will insist on a reform
wing of their own party, beginning to take on the left.
(14:53):
And it's in its insanity.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Well, we appreciate your analysis. How you enjoy in Switzerland, Oh,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
You have to come visit us at some point and
later on before when we have time. I want to
point out to people that in May of two thousand
and eight you launched drill here, drill now pay less.
I thought of this on the TV show last night.
You now have gasoline under two dollars in at least
six states, And of course Bronck Obama and the Democrats
ridiculed us and said you'll never get gasoline prices down,
(15:25):
and we kept saying, of course you will. You have
enough people who drew you find the gas and oil
prices come down. Well, guess what historyes you improved with?
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Oh that down a two point fifty or less a
gallon on like thirty six states. It's unreal, right, I
mean it's and that's happened very quickly. That's like a
majored in Bronco pack Scott for Americans. But mister speaker,
we appreciate it, and glad you're back.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
We miss you. I hope you're enjoying your time in
Switzerland and I'd love to come visit you. That'd be fun.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
That's take care.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Thanks eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn. If you
want to be a part of the program. Now War
in Europe born in the Middle East has taken its toll.
We've seen the devastation in Israel, hundreds of thousands of
rockets culminating in a long war in October seventh, and
tens and tens of thousands of Israelis have been displaced
and they are in need of a bare humanitarian assistance
(16:18):
the basics food, water, shelter, or clothing, medication, you name it,
they need it.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And the same thing.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
In Europe, especially Ukraine, you have older people like Olga.
We've been telling you about her, seventy nine years old.
He lives in a small village. He has no indoor plumbing,
no indoor bathroom, reliable heating. He doesn't have money to
cover food, medicine and heat. And that's where our partnership
with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews comes in.
(16:52):
Kennedy uncovers the real truth about the politics of DC.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
He's your watchdog on Big Brother every day. Nity is
on right now? Is it worth playing again? Tim Walls?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Now, this is the I mentioned this in the first
hour of the program today, Gavin Newsom, it's nearly a
year since the Pacific Palisades fires took place. Thousands of
people lost their fires, people lost their lives. You know,
we have empty fire hydrants, we have empty reservoirs. And
Gavin Newsom went approached by a constituent. I'm talking to
(17:32):
the president right now, meaning at the time President Biden. Well,
I'm going to talk to the president after the lady says.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Can I talk to him? And in all that time,
they rebuilt one home claiming that his hair went on
fire during the Pacific Palisades.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
I want to see the video. I am doubtful, but
he's doing he's doing a podcast. This is Gavin Newsom
and his special guest, Minnesota Governor Tim Walls. After the
last election, Democrats, you know, spent tens and tens of
millions of dollars researching how they can connect with men better.
(18:11):
And you know, one of the reasons we were told
that Tim Walls was picked because he's a regular dude.
If you don't know how to relate to people, you
can't read research and figure it out. Never mind the
fact that it's completely lacking authenticity anyway, So Walls alma
Gavin Newsom, who should be doing his day job and
(18:33):
helping the people in the Pacific Palisades. And they have
the highest poverty rate, highest homeless rate, highest taxes in
the country. No, he's out there doing podcasts, visiting other countries,
other states, everything but his day job. When his track
record is atrocious, you'd think he might want to clean
it up before he actually announces he's running for president.
(18:54):
But back in March, Tampon Timmy was on a little
Old Gavin's podcast, full time podcaster, tweety Bird and do
Nothing Governor.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I mean, the whole idea is, this is what real
men think. This is a broad talk. This notion of
toxicity and masculinity needs to be separated, and I think
it's been conflated. And I think we're gonna have to
work on that a little bit. And I think there
is a cris I think so much scare them.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
I think I scare them a little bit. Why they
spend so much time on No I'm serious, because I
can't fix a truck. They know I'm not both on this.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I'm not putting this in people's grill.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
I don't know if my identity is not hunting, my
identity is not football coaching. My identity is not you know, a.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
Beard in a truck.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I mean, remember when he had the photo or the
video that he put out of him hunting and he
couldn't load his own gun. I mean, it's unbelievable. I'm
going to show everybody I am a man's man. I'm
going hunting with my bros.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
I mean, what is that? It's it's so fake, it's
so bony.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
I don't know, maybe Linda, you know from a woman's
PERSPECTI I mean, I'm sure you look at these two.
Is the poster children of masculinity?
Speaker 5 (20:05):
My god, I mean the hair Jel alone, I'd love
to get ready with him. I think that you right, fine,
we could do share hairstick get ready together. And you
know Gavin Newsom, he loves to dance while he talks,
so he must be a fabulous dancer because he never
stopped shaking it the whole time he talks. And then
you know, we got Walls, you know, tampon Tim. He's
in touch with his feminine side. He is, you know,
(20:25):
these are these are men, They're just effeminine.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
And that's fine.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
I'm sure that Walls would use just as much jey
if he had any hair to put it in, so.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
That you would anybody be advocating for feminine products in
grade school boys' bathrooms.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Maybe that's what he wanted that, you know, we should
ask him where do you put your vampire?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Listen. I did have one off the record conversation, and
I'll maintain that confidentiality with him. I didn't buy newsom Oh.
Gavin's last text with me was not very nice.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
I know, but who are you? Who are you referring
to this one?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I was referring to tampon Tim copy and tampon Tim,
And I said, I know what's going to happen. You've
got to get off the phone. You're going to tell
your advisors and the people around you. Sean Hannity invited
me to come on a show, and they're all going
to say hell no, and you're not.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Going to do it. And he goes, I don't necessarily
know that that's true. Guess what I never heard back
from Tim Wallas.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
Let me tell you how we know that neither one
of these two has an entire brain cell between them combined.
When you are intelligent, when you're able to say something,
we're able to fix something. When you're able to do something,
you do not talk about.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
It, you do it.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
I guarantee you that if this man actually had to
fix a truck or change a tire, he would call
triple A. He has no idea how to do any
of that, just like I mean, load the gun. You're
talking about this, I don't know how to do any
of gun.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
No, well, hold a gun.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yes, obviously you'm a gun enthusiast, as you know, but
I'm more I'm actually a pistol marksman. Although I got
to be honest with rifles today, in a scope, if
it's dialed in, you really can't miss from a pretty
long distance if you just although you can, because even
though I've instructed you over and over again, you've got,
(22:13):
like I don't know, you got the yips for shooting.
It's unbelievable because you drop your shoulder every time you're
about to shoot, and you don't practice breathing and relaxing.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
And first of all, I think at the end of
the day, I am not someone who shoots for sport.
I shoot to practice to defend my family and my
children and my home.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Do you still have the yips?
Speaker 5 (22:32):
No, I don't have the yips. I have a target
practice in my backyard with my burner.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
I didn't ask you that, but you've had a constant
problem of last second jerking your shoulder.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Have you gotten any better?
Speaker 5 (22:42):
I have pretty good you have.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
I'm proud of you.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
Thank you good.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
You know you could be on the bro Tour.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Maybe I should train.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
You know.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
We had white dudes for Harris, right, remember that white
guys are white dudes for Harris. He was a part
of that whole thing. And then when he came out
on stage, honestly, him and Newsome just skip politics go
to Dancing with the Stars because the two of them
both think that they can dance. They have problems. They
look weird when they speak. There's a lot of shaking,
uncontrollable shaking with Newsom and then Tim when he used
to run down the walkway before he gave a speech
(23:11):
and like stumble through it. It's kind of like Elmer
Fudd that when I think of.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
It in the air, and you know, pounding is hard
and acting stud I do it when I'm on stage.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
I do it all the time. I make what I
do the Tim Walls entrance.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh really it's good.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Oh yeah, you haven't seen it.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
It's no, I haven't seen that.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Yeah you can see it. Uh, I think I did it.
Not this past year at the pending.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
The last time we were it was at the Chittarelli thing.
But that was short. That was like a very tight room.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
No, but well, I don't know if I did it
there either. I remember doing it two years ago at
the Patriot Awards. You can get it on Fox Nation.
You should be watching everything I do. Anyway, I should.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
I'm going to go do that.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Let's go to Debbie Is in New York. What's up, Debbie?
How you doing?
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Hey, Sean, I'm pretty good.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I'm good. I can't tell you from New York, though,
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
You're born and bred. Going on very much for taking
my call. The reason for it is I was listening
to the program yesterday where you were talking about farm Aide,
and I'd like to thank President Trump for providing much
needed economic relief for American farmers. However, one major group
(24:20):
of farmers has been left out, and they are often
left out of the conversation, and that is our American beekeepers.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
And you know you're a beekeeper in New York.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
I am. I'm a commercial beatkeeper. It's what I do
for a living, been doing it about fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I'm fascinated with these I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Well, first of all, if there's ever and I rarely
ever have anything sweet, I don't have a sweet tooth.
But if I did, you know, maybe occasionally, like if
I have an upset stomach and I need to like
get some bread or carbs and me it happens rarely,
but I'd have like a half of English muffin with
(25:02):
butter and honey, and that helps a lot. Or sometimes
at my throat is sore, I'll use a little bit
of honey, and that by far is the best. But
I'm fascinated by the whole process of beekeeping.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I really am. If I'm an old man, I might
become a beekeeper just for kicks and giggles.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Have you been stung a lot thousands of times?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Yeah, okay, I'm not interested in that far. Do you
wear the hazmat suit or not?
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Not?
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Really? No, I wear very little when i'm beekeeping.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Well, that's probably why you're getting stung. Why you don't
care about getting stung.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
It's actually medicine. So there's a whole another aspect of
beekeeping besides honey and pollination, which is ep therapy, the
use of the products of the high for help and
healing people and animals. And it's illegal in America to
practice this form of medicine. It's world, It's used across
the world. There's whole clinics devoted to it in other countries.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, but you're probably have immunity to it. But you know,
some people get stung and they need.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Like an empiped Absolutely they do.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
I've been stung before, but it doesn't seem to impact
me at all. I don't like it, you know what.
I know what I had to deal with last night,
and maybe you'll appreciate this. A little baby lizard made
it into my house, and I don't like creatures in
my house.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I don't. Do you want me to tell you what
I did to it?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Or should I just keep it to myself because some
people will be offended by what I did to it.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
I want you to know I'm already offended. I don't
even know what you're going to say.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Oh, I'm sorry, it's my house that their habitat is outside.
They invaded my house.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
And invade your house. He made a wrong turn?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Are you?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Are you against giving directions?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Uh to what?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Told? Lizard's a baby lizard?
Speaker 5 (26:44):
Of course, he's just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Okay, what would you do if a baby lizard invaded
your house?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
I would pick him up, and I would take him
outside and I would take No.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I'm not picking up the lizard. It's no, not happening, Debbie.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
What would you do?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That's all I'm going to say.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Uh, the lizard?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
I would I would put it back outside or or
fry it up. I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Oh, Debbie, what happened?
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
If you keep her?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
A murderer?
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Debbie, you uh you get you got a name plus
rating for your call today? By the way, do you
I assume you sell your honey, right I do? Okay, Linda,
I'm gonna put her on hold. I want you to
get her address.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Absolutely, she's a murderer. She's a lizard. Must stop just
frying lizards. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I'm just not saying it because I don't want to
deal with the aftermath of phone calls what I did
to the poor lizard.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
You know, I don't want to hear it, So I'm
just keep my mouth shut for once.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
Wait, will Debbie have anything else to say it? We're sorry, Debbie,
we got hijack.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Actually, so what I wanted to say is we we
only have about two thousand commercial beekeepers in this country
who manage about ninety percent of our bees. We have
about two and a half million honeybee colonies. However, we
had the largest dial off ever recorded in American history
that occurred between around November and February of last year.
And wow, interim, we were trying to figure out what
(27:59):
what we didn't know. Now, imagine if if two thirds
of the cows died, everyone would be freaking out trying
to figure out what happened. Well, we didn't know.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
And in the.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Meanwhile, they closed the belt fille B Lab, which was
integral to the industry. To keep that lab open to
help us to figure things out. We've got extreme biosecurity
risks occurring right now. We've got an invasive might called
tropal a lapse that most people are unaware of. And
this might was just intercepted on a ship. I think
(28:28):
it was coming over from Africa. If they everyone involved
the right thing, this b colony was a stowaway on
a ship, and everyone involved the right thing, they actually
exterminated the colony, test the bees, and they head the
tropile a lapse in the colony. If that might or
when that might gets to America. It will destroy American agriculture.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
It is.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
We have a a might call Veroa, which most people
might have heard of by now. The triple A lapse
might is like row on steroids. It is going to
make agriculture. I don't want to say collapse, but it
could definitely collapse and just change the way we do everything.
So we need research. We need the beekeepers. You know
everyone's about saving the bees. How about we try saving
(29:15):
the beekeepers. We have two thousand American beekeepers that pollinate
much of our food and they need to be not
only included in the conversation farm maids in particular. Those
farmers cannot survive without the beekeepers and the bees to
pollinate their crops.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Here's what I want you to do.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Give one to all your information, and I'll just pass
it on to like speaker Johnson to make sure he's
aware of it. I can't guarantee you going to get results,
but it may sound like a small problem, but it
sounds like a big problem to me. I appreciate what
you do. I'm not sure if I want to buy
your honey now, is your honey safe?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
If I buy it, my honey is delicious. It's from Sagaponic,
actually is where I might might.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Be, all right, and they give me a couple of
jars of our honey.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
We'll order it and I'll let you know how much
I love it.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Okay, people want to buy your honey. What's your website?
Speaker 4 (30:08):
The name of my business is Bonicbes b O Naconic.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Bees, Bonicbeespronicbees dot com. Okay, got it, appreciate it? All right.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
That's gonna wrap things up today. We have a great
Hannity tonight nine eastern on the Fox News Channel. Senator
Ted Kruz will join us David Asman on the good
news in the economy, including the interest rate cut. Senator
John Thune an alternative to Obamacare? How about giving the
money directly to the people. Tommy larn also Steven Miller,
(30:41):
Ari Fleischer Wryne's previous e DVR Tonight, nine eastern Hannity
on Fox. We'll see you then back here tomorrow. Thank
you for making this show possible.
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information
overload in the final hour of the Sean Hannity Show.
All Right, News round Up and Information Overload Hour. Here's
our toll free telephone number if you want to be
a part of the program. It is eight hundred and
ninety four to one Sean if you want to join us.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
It is sad, it is tragic. It is growing by
the day.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
It is just outright corruption at a level that is breathtaking.
And I'm talking about the Minnesota Somali fraud scandal. It
looks like we just hit the tip of the Iceberg
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer warning last night that
this fraud found in Minnesota is likely more widespread than
Democratic than Democrats want voters to believe. We had Brooke
(00:45):
Rollins on the program saying, you know, she's trying to
get a handle on programs like snap. We had memet
Oz doctor Oz talking about how bad it is, how
you know. For example, in one particular program that they
had on autis in twenty eighteen, they went from three
billion who were whopping four hundred billion. It's institutionalized fraud
(01:07):
and we're learning that. Tim Walls was warned about it
by whistleblowers, he ignored it. And as Minnesota is Somali's
welfare fraud scandaled Widened Walls is inviting you know, more
people from Somalia to get involved and to his state.
Minneapolis Star Tribune new documents raised more questions. This is
(01:27):
a flashback from twenty nineteen about Congresswoman Omar's marital history,
impossible immigration fraud. We're in a deposition Omar suggested she
was unaware that she violated tax law by filing a
married joint return with the wrong husband. How is that
humanly possible? And don't blame me for that story, blame
(01:49):
the Minneapolis Star Tribute. Now former Speaker of the House
new Kingrich is taking this on. Don't forget he has
his bestseller out, Trump's Triumph, America's Greatest comeback. But he's
here to break down this fraud. And he's pointed out
four very important points about this. And you know, as
(02:09):
now the Senate is dealing with instead of the you know,
Affordable Care Act, that's not affordable, and millions lose their doctors,
millions lose their plans. Nobody saves on average twenty five
hundred dollars a year. No, we're painting about on average
three hundred plus percent more and over forty percent of
the country have but one Obamacare exchange option. They're talking
(02:31):
about giving money directly to citizens so they can better
spend their healthcare dollars. Anyway, Former Speaker of the House,
New Gingridge, Now you in Switzerland. I know, Callista, your
beautiful wife is now the ambassador there and Lichtenstein.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
I guess she's doing both. But are you in the States.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I'm actually in Chicago in a series of meetings on healthcare.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Why the hell would you want to be in Chicago?
You know it's very dangerous there, well.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Too bad a day here. It's a great city with
a terrible government, I guess is the way I would put.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
A great city where on any average weekend you can
predict how many people will be shot and shot and killed,
and nobody ever pays attention to it, nobody ever changes it.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I know. It's it's the strangest thing, and it's partially
because it most most of the killings tend to be
on the South side, and everybody else in the city
just drugs their shoulders. It's it is tragic, how bad
the city government, how corrupt the city politics are, because
because it is a great city and it's continuing a
(03:36):
great deal in American history. But one state away from
the corruption you were describing, I have gotten very involved
in this whole issue of whether or not big government
socialism inherently leads to corruption because of the way the
bureaucracy works, in the way that the money is spent,
(03:56):
and the attitude people build under socialism. And soon I
was involved, initially from the standpoint of a brilliant book
called The Failure Factory, which is a study of the
Baltimore Schools, and just you know, they take money and
they don't deliver, and you would and then you think
of that, frankly as fraud or his corruption. But then
(04:19):
along came this this thing in Minnesota and that people
need to get their head around us. We're talking about
a city, the city of Minneapolis, and we're talking about
an estimated one billion dollars stolen from the taxpayers in
the city of Minneapolis. But has to be, per capita,
(04:44):
the biggest corruption scandal in American history. And what happened,
in part was that some of the elements of the
Somali Communion Let's be clear, there a lot of Somalians
who are hardworking and honest, but there's a corruption coming
out of Somalia, which has been historically rated as one
of the two or three most corrupt countries in the world.
(05:05):
And so people arrive and they look around, and the
bureaucracy says, can we give you money? And I said,
well sure, I mean, if you really want to give
me money, I don't mind. So they set up a
whole series of small companies that are going to feed
the children, except they don't. They take the money to
(05:27):
send the use some of it to buy property back
in Somalia. Some of it apparently ended up with the
terrorist organization Al Shabama in Mogadishu. So, in effect, the
report that was a brilliant report done by the Manhattan
Institute starts by asking the question with the Minnesota an
(05:48):
American taxpayer literally funding al Shabab, which is a explicitly
terrorist opper organization in Somalia. So they learn how to
do this, and they say, well where else can we go?
And they discover a program to help senior citizens and
to help people who need housing, and so they set
(06:09):
up companies to take money there and provide, of course,
neither housing nor services, but they keep getting paid by
the state government because Tim Waltz, who is just a
hopelessly dumb left wing politician, you can't believe that people.
If you offer people money, they will take it. And
(06:30):
then they say, well, where else can we turn? And
they go to a program. I think in some ways
this is the most despicable of the three. They go
to a program designed to help children with autism. They
then pay families a monthly fee for certifying that their
child is autistic, even though they're not. So you're a
(06:51):
local family, and somebody show those up, says high, we
can pay between thirty and one hundred and fifty dollars
the money if you're willing to sign a paper child
is autistic. So they then get that money.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Now Here you.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Have three parallel streams of money, all of them stolen.
And the US attorney said, clearly the biggest zone of
corruption and fraud he's ever seen. They've already had convicted
fifty people. They have another twenty five they're putting on trial.
But this is just a drop in the bucket. The
(07:24):
state government, under all this pressure, has now suspended fourteen
different programs that are being re audited to see how
many of them are also corrupt. And I would argue
that this is the natural outcome of big government socialism
because it sets up a system one where it says
you are the government should give you money. Why why
(07:47):
aren't you getting your government money? Two bureaucrats are inherently
incapable of catching up with the cook. Now, the bureaucrat
goes home at five, they take the weekend off. The
crooks round to eight or nine nights stealing. If they
feel short, they'll come out on side and Sunday and steal.
So the bureaucrat never catches up. And of course you've
(08:09):
now had whistleblowers come out of the woodwork in Minnesota
and say they kept trying to tell them, these are
people in the government. He said, look, we tried to
tell our bosses that this was crazy, and they just
simply would not look listen to us. And they told
us to shut up because they were afraid that to
look at Somalians would be seen as racism, and therefore
(08:31):
it was better let them steal than it was to
look bad. Uh. And then a number of people have
now signed statements to that effect that they were actively
inside the government saying this can't be legal, this has
to be fraud. And the government of Tim Waltsh just
said shut your mouth or you'll sound like a racist.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, And there is a vote component to that as well.
And the vote component is, oh, okay, we give people,
you know, free money, why wouldn't they put us back
in power. You know, there's a debate like we're talking about,
and what you're describing here is how these outdated bureaucracies
are incapable of effectively you know, monitoring, policing, you know,
(09:20):
what becomes institutionalized theft. And this this is one of
the biggest examples, as you point out, in history. But
that is the history of socialism, statism, Marxism, redistributionism. I
don't care what name you give it, but it always
ends the same way, and that is unfulfilled promises more
(09:43):
poverty than when you started corruption.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I'll add that to the list.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And at the end of the day, you give up
a degree of freedom that you can't calculate till it's
all said and done.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
In the name of false security.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
The whole Green New Deal is about taking care of
everybody from cradle to grave from womb to the tomb.
And if you look at institutions, they don't. They opened
up our borders and they compromised our national security, and
Americans are dying.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
We have known terrorists in the country.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
If you look at defund dismantle Nobel and reimagine the
police that has resulted in a disaster. When you have
regular policing as the President approved in DC, guess what,
lives are saved. They could do the same thing in
Chicago if they weren't so resistant to it, and you
could duplicate that model around the country and lives and
people would be able to pursue happiness because they have
(10:35):
law and order and safety and security. But on all
of these major issues, the left has doubled down. It's
Kasmine Crockett now running in Texas to be a Senator.
It's a woman that hates Nashville, that hates country music
wants to be a congress person elected in Nashville. It's
(10:57):
Mamdani winning in New York. It's the AO see the
squad in charge of the Democratic Party along with Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know, I.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Don't know whether to jump for joy because I think
Republicans have better chances of winning elections, or to soberly
look at this as a real threat to the system
of government that has made us the greatest country God
gave man.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yeah, I think as we approach our two hundred and
fiftieth anniversary as a country dedicated to freedom and the
rule of law, we have to recognize that there's a
substantial number of people in this country who do not
share our values, who do not believe in the constitution,
who do not believe in the rule of law, and
(11:44):
that the level of corruption when you go, for example,
of the city schools, which routinely lie and routinely steal
money because they're not providing services. When you look at
the scale of theft in Medicare and Medicaid. We have
(12:05):
become a country in which a significant minority is committed
to the idea that if they can, if they can
steal it and keep it, then they're really smart and
the rest of us are really dumb. And this is
going to require, I think, a very deep, profound reshaping
(12:26):
of the core values and getting back to a principle
which was Jefferson and Adams and Franklin and all the
founding fathers. George Washington Bill insid this principle that you
can have a free government if you have of people
willing to obey morality, willing to obey the law, willing
(12:47):
to be patriots. But if you lose those values, then
you're only going to lose the country. And I think,
I think it's a very big trip. I'm very sad,
and I'm going to be very curious. For example, to
see in Minnesota where people are gaming Klobashar, who's a
pretty decent Democrat, pretty responsible person, well, see now that
(13:08):
a big problem because she has a very large Somali community,
She has a very large left wing base in Minneapolis,
which is you cannot as a Democrat win in Minnesota
if you lose the base in Annapolis. And yet she knows,
she has to know that this is a scandal of
(13:30):
historic proportions and that it is a really sad commentary
when the local congresswoman stands up and defends the crooks
and attacks the US government for actually wanting to protect
the taxpayer's money.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Continue now, former Speaker of the House New Gingrich is
with us.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Ask you this because there is an appeal to people
that the government is going to take away all their
fears all their anxieties guarantee that every aspect of their
life will in fact be taken care of.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
There's an appeal to that.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
The Democrats now seem to have adopted that in their
new radicalism that leads their party.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
How far does it go? We have less than a minute.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Well, look, I think this is one of the great
crises in American history. We'll see how big a disaster mondamious,
But it seems in the biggest cities Chicago, with Los Angeles,
New York, you can be a disaster for a long time.
If you look at our school systems, we have seen
a level of corruption which people have not talked out about,
(14:31):
have been open and blunt about. That is astonishing. So
I think this is a genuine fight for the very
nature of America. And I hope that most Democrats will
end up being so disgusted by things like the Minneapolis
scandal that in fact they will insist on a reform
wing of their own party, beginning to take on the left.
(14:53):
And it's in its insanity.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Well, we appreciate your analysis. How you enjoy in Switzerland, Oh,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
You have to come visit us at some point and
later on before when we have time. I want to
point out to people that in May of two thousand
and eight you launched drill here, drill now pay less.
I thought of this on the TV show last night.
You now have gasoline under two dollars in at least
six states, And of course Bronck Obama and the Democrats
ridiculed us and said you'll never get gasoline prices down,
(15:25):
and we kept saying, of course you will. You have
enough people who drew you find the gas and oil
prices come down. Well, guess what historyes you improved with?
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Oh that down a two point fifty or less a
gallon on like thirty six states. It's unreal, right, I
mean it's and that's happened very quickly. That's like a
majored in Bronco pack Scott for Americans. But mister speaker,
we appreciate it, and glad you're back.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
We miss you. I hope you're enjoying your time in
Switzerland and I'd love to come visit you. That'd be fun.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
That's take care.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Thanks eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn. If you
want to be a part of the program. Now War
in Europe born in the Middle East has taken its toll.
We've seen the devastation in Israel, hundreds of thousands of
rockets culminating in a long war in October seventh, and
tens and tens of thousands of Israelis have been displaced
and they are in need of a bare humanitarian assistance
(16:18):
the basics food, water, shelter, or clothing, medication, you name it,
they need it.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
And the same thing.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
In Europe, especially Ukraine, you have older people like Olga.
We've been telling you about her, seventy nine years old.
He lives in a small village. He has no indoor plumbing,
no indoor bathroom, reliable heating. He doesn't have money to
cover food, medicine and heat. And that's where our partnership
with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews comes in.
(16:52):
Kennedy uncovers the real truth about the politics of DC.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
He's your watchdog on Big Brother every day. Nity is
on right now? Is it worth playing again? Tim Walls?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Now, this is the I mentioned this in the first
hour of the program today, Gavin Newsom, it's nearly a
year since the Pacific Palisades fires took place. Thousands of
people lost their fires, people lost their lives. You know,
we have empty fire hydrants, we have empty reservoirs. And
Gavin Newsom went approached by a constituent. I'm talking to
(17:32):
the president right now, meaning at the time President Biden. Well,
I'm going to talk to the president after the lady says.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Can I talk to him? And in all that time,
they rebuilt one home claiming that his hair went on
fire during the Pacific Palisades.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
I want to see the video. I am doubtful, but
he's doing he's doing a podcast. This is Gavin Newsom
and his special guest, Minnesota Governor Tim Walls. After the
last election, Democrats, you know, spent tens and tens of
millions of dollars researching how they can connect with men better.
(18:11):
And you know, one of the reasons we were told
that Tim Walls was picked because he's a regular dude.
If you don't know how to relate to people, you
can't read research and figure it out. Never mind the
fact that it's completely lacking authenticity anyway, So Walls alma
Gavin Newsom, who should be doing his day job and
(18:33):
helping the people in the Pacific Palisades. And they have
the highest poverty rate, highest homeless rate, highest taxes in
the country. No, he's out there doing podcasts, visiting other countries,
other states, everything but his day job. When his track
record is atrocious, you'd think he might want to clean
it up before he actually announces he's running for president.
(18:54):
But back in March, Tampon Timmy was on a little
Old Gavin's podcast, full time podcaster, tweety Bird and do
Nothing Governor.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I mean, the whole idea is, this is what real
men think. This is a broad talk. This notion of
toxicity and masculinity needs to be separated, and I think
it's been conflated. And I think we're gonna have to
work on that a little bit. And I think there
is a cris I think so much scare them.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
I think I scare them a little bit. Why they
spend so much time on No I'm serious, because I
can't fix a truck. They know I'm not both on this.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I'm not putting this in people's grill.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
I don't know if my identity is not hunting, my
identity is not football coaching. My identity is not you know, a.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
Beard in a truck.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
I mean, remember when he had the photo or the
video that he put out of him hunting and he
couldn't load his own gun. I mean, it's unbelievable. I'm
going to show everybody I am a man's man. I'm
going hunting with my bros.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
I mean, what is that? It's it's so fake, it's
so bony.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
I don't know, maybe Linda, you know from a woman's
PERSPECTI I mean, I'm sure you look at these two.
Is the poster children of masculinity?
Speaker 5 (20:05):
My god, I mean the hair Jel alone, I'd love
to get ready with him. I think that you right, fine,
we could do share hairstick get ready together. And you
know Gavin Newsom, he loves to dance while he talks,
so he must be a fabulous dancer because he never
stopped shaking it the whole time he talks. And then
you know, we got Walls, you know, tampon Tim. He's
in touch with his feminine side. He is, you know,
(20:25):
these are these are men, They're just effeminine.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
And that's fine.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
I'm sure that Walls would use just as much jey
if he had any hair to put it in, so.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
That you would anybody be advocating for feminine products in
grade school boys' bathrooms.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Maybe that's what he wanted that, you know, we should
ask him where do you put your vampire?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Listen. I did have one off the record conversation, and
I'll maintain that confidentiality with him. I didn't buy newsom Oh.
Gavin's last text with me was not very nice.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
I know, but who are you? Who are you referring
to this one?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I was referring to tampon Tim copy and tampon Tim,
And I said, I know what's going to happen. You've
got to get off the phone. You're going to tell
your advisors and the people around you. Sean Hannity invited
me to come on a show, and they're all going
to say hell no, and you're not.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Going to do it. And he goes, I don't necessarily
know that that's true. Guess what I never heard back
from Tim Wallas.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
Let me tell you how we know that neither one
of these two has an entire brain cell between them combined.
When you are intelligent, when you're able to say something,
we're able to fix something. When you're able to do something,
you do not talk about.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
It, you do it.
Speaker 5 (21:33):
I guarantee you that if this man actually had to
fix a truck or change a tire, he would call
triple A. He has no idea how to do any
of that, just like I mean, load the gun. You're
talking about this, I don't know how to do any
of gun.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
No, well, hold a gun.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yes, obviously you'm a gun enthusiast, as you know, but
I'm more I'm actually a pistol marksman. Although I got
to be honest with rifles today, in a scope, if
it's dialed in, you really can't miss from a pretty
long distance if you just although you can, because even
though I've instructed you over and over again, you've got,
(22:13):
like I don't know, you got the yips for shooting.
It's unbelievable because you drop your shoulder every time you're
about to shoot, and you don't practice breathing and relaxing.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
And first of all, I think at the end of
the day, I am not someone who shoots for sport.
I shoot to practice to defend my family and my
children and my home.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Do you still have the yips?
Speaker 5 (22:32):
No, I don't have the yips. I have a target
practice in my backyard with my burner.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
I didn't ask you that, but you've had a constant
problem of last second jerking your shoulder.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Have you gotten any better?
Speaker 5 (22:42):
I have pretty good you have.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
I'm proud of you.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
Thank you good.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
You know you could be on the bro Tour.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Maybe I should train.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
You know.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
We had white dudes for Harris, right, remember that white
guys are white dudes for Harris. He was a part
of that whole thing. And then when he came out
on stage, honestly, him and Newsome just skip politics go
to Dancing with the Stars because the two of them
both think that they can dance. They have problems. They
look weird when they speak. There's a lot of shaking,
uncontrollable shaking with Newsom and then Tim when he used
to run down the walkway before he gave a speech
(23:11):
and like stumble through it. It's kind of like Elmer
Fudd that when I think of.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
It in the air, and you know, pounding is hard
and acting stud I do it when I'm on stage.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
I do it all the time. I make what I
do the Tim Walls entrance.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh really it's good.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Oh yeah, you haven't seen it.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
It's no, I haven't seen that.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Yeah you can see it. Uh, I think I did it.
Not this past year at the pending.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
The last time we were it was at the Chittarelli thing.
But that was short. That was like a very tight room.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
No, but well, I don't know if I did it
there either. I remember doing it two years ago at
the Patriot Awards. You can get it on Fox Nation.
You should be watching everything I do. Anyway, I should.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
I'm going to go do that.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Let's go to Debbie Is in New York. What's up, Debbie?
How you doing?
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Hey, Sean, I'm pretty good.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I'm good. I can't tell you from New York, though,
Go ahead.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
You're born and bred. Going on very much for taking
my call. The reason for it is I was listening
to the program yesterday where you were talking about farm Aide,
and I'd like to thank President Trump for providing much
needed economic relief for American farmers. However, one major group
(24:20):
of farmers has been left out, and they are often
left out of the conversation, and that is our American beekeepers.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
And you know you're a beekeeper in New York.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
I am. I'm a commercial beatkeeper. It's what I do
for a living, been doing it about fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I'm fascinated with these I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Well, first of all, if there's ever and I rarely
ever have anything sweet, I don't have a sweet tooth.
But if I did, you know, maybe occasionally, like if
I have an upset stomach and I need to like
get some bread or carbs and me it happens rarely,
but I'd have like a half of English muffin with
(25:02):
butter and honey, and that helps a lot. Or sometimes
at my throat is sore, I'll use a little bit
of honey, and that by far is the best. But
I'm fascinated by the whole process of beekeeping.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I really am. If I'm an old man, I might
become a beekeeper just for kicks and giggles.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
Have you been stung a lot thousands of times?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Yeah, okay, I'm not interested in that far. Do you
wear the hazmat suit or not?
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Not?
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Really? No, I wear very little when i'm beekeeping.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Well, that's probably why you're getting stung. Why you don't
care about getting stung.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
It's actually medicine. So there's a whole another aspect of
beekeeping besides honey and pollination, which is ep therapy, the
use of the products of the high for help and
healing people and animals. And it's illegal in America to
practice this form of medicine. It's world, It's used across
the world. There's whole clinics devoted to it in other countries.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, but you're probably have immunity to it. But you know,
some people get stung and they need.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Like an empiped Absolutely they do.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
I've been stung before, but it doesn't seem to impact
me at all. I don't like it, you know what.
I know what I had to deal with last night,
and maybe you'll appreciate this. A little baby lizard made
it into my house, and I don't like creatures in
my house.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I don't. Do you want me to tell you what
I did to it?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Or should I just keep it to myself because some
people will be offended by what I did to it.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
I want you to know I'm already offended. I don't
even know what you're going to say.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Oh, I'm sorry, it's my house that their habitat is outside.
They invaded my house.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
And invade your house. He made a wrong turn?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Are you?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Are you against giving directions?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Uh to what?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Told? Lizard's a baby lizard?
Speaker 5 (26:44):
Of course, he's just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Okay, what would you do if a baby lizard invaded
your house?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
I would pick him up, and I would take him
outside and I would take No.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I'm not picking up the lizard. It's no, not happening, Debbie.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
What would you do?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That's all I'm going to say.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Uh, the lizard?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
I would I would put it back outside or or
fry it up. I'm not sure.
Speaker 5 (27:01):
Oh, Debbie, what happened?
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
If you keep her?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
A murderer?
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Debbie, you uh you get you got a name plus
rating for your call today? By the way, do you
I assume you sell your honey, right I do? Okay, Linda,
I'm gonna put her on hold. I want you to
get her address.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Absolutely, she's a murderer. She's a lizard. Must stop just
frying lizards. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I'm just not saying it because I don't want to
deal with the aftermath of phone calls what I did
to the poor lizard.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
You know, I don't want to hear it, So I'm
just keep my mouth shut for once.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
Wait, will Debbie have anything else to say it? We're sorry, Debbie,
we got hijack.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Actually, so what I wanted to say is we we
only have about two thousand commercial beekeepers in this country
who manage about ninety percent of our bees. We have
about two and a half million honeybee colonies. However, we
had the largest dial off ever recorded in American history
that occurred between around November and February of last year.
And wow, interim, we were trying to figure out what
(27:59):
what we didn't know. Now, imagine if if two thirds
of the cows died, everyone would be freaking out trying
to figure out what happened. Well, we didn't know.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
And in the.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Meanwhile, they closed the belt fille B Lab, which was
integral to the industry. To keep that lab open to
help us to figure things out. We've got extreme biosecurity
risks occurring right now. We've got an invasive might called
tropal a lapse that most people are unaware of. And
this might was just intercepted on a ship. I think
(28:28):
it was coming over from Africa. If they everyone involved
the right thing, this b colony was a stowaway on
a ship, and everyone involved the right thing, they actually
exterminated the colony, test the bees, and they head the
tropile a lapse in the colony. If that might or
when that might gets to America. It will destroy American agriculture.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
It is.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
We have a a might call Veroa, which most people
might have heard of by now. The triple A lapse
might is like row on steroids. It is going to
make agriculture. I don't want to say collapse, but it
could definitely collapse and just change the way we do everything.
So we need research. We need the beekeepers. You know
everyone's about saving the bees. How about we try saving
(29:15):
the beekeepers. We have two thousand American beekeepers that pollinate
much of our food and they need to be not
only included in the conversation farm maids in particular. Those
farmers cannot survive without the beekeepers and the bees to
pollinate their crops.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Here's what I want you to do.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Give one to all your information, and I'll just pass
it on to like speaker Johnson to make sure he's
aware of it. I can't guarantee you going to get results,
but it may sound like a small problem, but it
sounds like a big problem to me. I appreciate what
you do. I'm not sure if I want to buy
your honey now, is your honey safe?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
If I buy it, my honey is delicious. It's from Sagaponic,
actually is where I might might.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Be, all right, and they give me a couple of
jars of our honey.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
We'll order it and I'll let you know how much
I love it.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Okay, people want to buy your honey. What's your website?
Speaker 4 (30:08):
The name of my business is Bonicbes b O Naconic.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Bees, Bonicbeespronicbees dot com. Okay, got it, appreciate it? All right.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
