Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, thanks Scott Show on an hour two Sean
Hannity Show, eight hundred and nine to four one Seawn
our number if you want to be a part of
the program. Even twenty percent of Democrats now saying Trump
is doing a great job. We went over as poll
numbers with CBS yesterday and Americans are finally getting it
and getting the speed of Trump and adapting very quickly. Democrats,
(00:24):
they just seem as I've never seen a party in
such disarray as I have now and what they now
stand for. And I think this was the evidence by
who they chose to you know, be the top two
people to lead the DNC into the future there to
the left of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, and the
(00:45):
party's become radicalized and Chuck Schumer's big plan to you know,
and the Democrats plan to just scream and yell and
random rave about you know, waste fraud abuse internationally hunt
what will be hundreds of bills, millions of dollars. We've
already found tens of billions of dollars in moneis spent
(01:05):
abroad for their radical green New Deal for woke programs, wokeism.
DEI transgenderism, LGBTQ plus and the American people, you know,
are thinking, why isn't that money being spent on law
and order and safety and security and better schools and
better transportation and infrastructure in our country? And why aren't
(01:27):
we benefiting from this money? And if they want to
die in that hill, that's fine. If they want to
die on the hill of protecting you know, Harris Biden, illegals,
that includes murderers, rapists, cartel members, gang members, known terrorists
in our country, Okay, die on that hill. If they
want to die on the hill of fighting for men
to be able to play in women's sports, let them.
(01:48):
Let them die on that hill. But there's uh, they're
just becoming completely unhinged. Here's Chris Murphy, you know, lashing
out about DOGE, comparing it to the death of the democracy. Okay,
really not a little bit of hyperbole here at all.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Yeah, listen, I mean, this isn't hyperbole to say that
we are staring the death of democracy in the eyes
right now. The centerpiece of our democracy is that we
observe court rulings, criminal court rulings, civil court rulings, and
constitutional court rulings. No one is above the law, and
whether we like it or not, the courts interpret the law.
(02:26):
So yes, Throughout the history of the United States, the
courts have made rulings on when the executive branch is
exercising legal power and when they are going beyond the
power that they have. If the President of United States says,
you know what, I don't care what the courts say,
I'm going to do whatever the hell I want, that's
essentially the end of the rule of law. Because if
(02:46):
the president isn't bound by our laws and the constitution,
then why would anybody else be bound by our laws
and the constitution. This is a really dire moment.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
But for years Democrats didn't utter a word with the
weaponization of the DOJ or the fact that Harris and
Biden were aiding and abetting illegal law breaking. I mean,
I'm not exactly sure even what core case he's talking about.
Here's more of the Democratic meltdown.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Elon Musk, where are you bring your ass over here
so you can say who's here?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
This is like a bank robber trying to fire the
cops and turn off the alarms just before he strolls
into the lobby.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
We are here to fight back.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
That is what they are doing. They are dismantling the
federal government, which will deny the American people to services
and the resources that allow them to help to raise
their families, have a secure economy and a secure future
for themselves.
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Every time you hear doje the Department of Government, see
you just remember it is the Department of Government.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Evil over.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
This is thavery, This is gangster ism.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Okay, the bank robber that's working for free, the Department
of Government evil thievery.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
We're coming after you.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
What because we discovered that your hard earned tax dollars
average America making sixty six thousand dollars a year and
their hard earned money going for twenty million dollars on
a sesame street show in Iraq, and fifty six million
to boost Egyptian and Tunisia tourism, and forty million to
build schools in Jordan but not in the US. And
eleven million to tell the Vietnamese to stop burning trash.
(04:43):
And this is how they react because they've been exposed. Anyway,
here are his thoughts on all of this is the
former Speaker of the House, New Gingrich. He's the last
speaker to ever balanced the budget, and I can't imagine
all the waste brought an abuse that you found in
your line by line examination of the budget at the time.
But I doubt you found this kind of craziness.
Speaker 8 (05:05):
Okay, I think Elon Musk is doing the country an
enormous service and just surfacing all this stuff. I mean,
when people need to realize the depth of corruption, the
depth of fraud, the special sweetheart deals, the programs that
are useless and a total waste of our money. By
(05:25):
the time they're done, we're going to have this mountain
of evidence that the Establishment government was a corrupt, incestuous,
incompetent system that failed to protect America, failed to provide
for a prosperous economy, and failed to spend your tax
money that you work hard for in a proven and
(05:45):
wise way. I think this is going to be one
of the great educational experiences in American history. And I
doubt if the Establishment is ever going to recover from
the evidence that's going to come pouring out about how
much corruption there's been.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Only one agency, I mean, and the tens of billions
of dollars of taxpayer money that was just wasted abroad
who advanced their radicalism is breathtaking. Both Senator thun and
Congressman and Speaker of the House Johnson vowed to take
Doge spending cuts to the next level. There is a
little problem that has emerged. It was on Foxnews dot
(06:21):
Com that apparently Freedom Caucus members, you know, there's a
little bit of a mutiny against House leadership as the
Trump budget bill. You know, talks have hit an impasse,
and now we've got competing bills, and I don't know
how they're going to end up reconciling themselves. They don't
have a big margin, as you know in the House.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
Well, and I think at some point the country will
tell them to get their act together, sit in the
room and sorted out. I don't fully understand what their
complaint is. I think we need to add a provision
to the reconciliation bill. I think unless, unless they deliberately
want to be destructive, the Freedom Caucus got to find
a way to reach out and solve this. They're going
to have hundreds of billions and maybe well over a
(07:03):
trillion dollars in savings that Musk and Trump are going
to find. They're going to have a substantial increase in
revenue from Trump's new tariffs. Now those could be able
to be wrapped into the reconciliation bill and counted towards
getting to a bill which is more than paid for.
I mean, if you count those things in the reconciation,
(07:24):
in the reconciliation bill, you will reduce the deficit in
the out years, which reduces the amount of spending on
interest payments, which further reduces the deficit. And you know,
we got to the only as you point out earlier,
the only four consecutive balanced budgets in one hundred years
were created by the House Republicans in the nineteen nineties.
(07:44):
And we did it, frankly, by being clever, not stupid,
by finding ways to listen to each other, not argue,
and by looking for every savings and every revenue opportunity,
particularly through economic growth. So I think that you have
to recognize that the Congressional Budget Office is a left
wing institution. I called years ago four it to be replaced.
(08:06):
That the Budget Act was written in nineteen seventy four
by radical Democrats, so it has a huge bias in
favor of spending and a bias against tax cuts. Those
things need to be smoothed out. But the fact is
what you're going to discover. Now, I'll just give you
an example of healthcare. We currently pay billions and billions
(08:26):
to crooks. Now I can defend every penny going to
honest people. Now, I don't want to cut a single
penny from doctors and nurses and hospitals and from patients.
But that doesn't mean I want to send to give
money away to crooks. And if you just had to
make America honest again, to match up with Robert F.
Kennedy Juniors make America healthy again, I'll bet you could
(08:47):
get two or three trillion dollars that it wouldn't come
from cutting anybody who was honest. In fact, you could
take part of that money and increase the salary for
doctors and nurses and people who are actually dealing with patients,
and in the process you could start reducing the bureaucracy.
We have a system today, whether a bureaucrat, whether it's
government or insurance company, bureaucrat has more power than your doctor.
(09:11):
Now they've never seen you. Many of them don't have
a medical degree. They're operating off of some cookbook. And
it's part of why American health has not improved, even
though we spend twice as much money as the number
two country, Switzerland, twice as much per capita, and we
have worse outcomes.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
I mean, all of this is transformational, consequential, and it's
the reform that this government has needed, a top to
bottom accounting of how they spend the people's money. And
I think when all is said and done, we may
end up with hundreds of billions, maybe even over a
trillion dollars in waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption. And I
(09:51):
think what the American people are seeing already is breathtaking. Now,
the political side of this is the Democrats have seemed
to be leading on a stre strategy, which is to
blame the messenger and attack the process that exposes all
of this. And to me, that's a losing strategy because
(10:11):
I don't think any common sense American is going to
look at this kind of spending and be happy about
it because it's their money.
Speaker 8 (10:18):
Every Democrat who we can get on tape defending things
that are totally stupid or corrupt is good for us.
In twenty twenty six, do we have time just for
a story to draw the parallel out here?
Speaker 4 (10:30):
For of course, take good time.
Speaker 8 (10:33):
So it's nineteen eighty one, Ronald Reagan has been elected president.
I have been endorsed by the professional air traffic controllers,
and I represented the largest air traffic control area in
the country, combination of the Hampton Center and the airport.
And they designed a strategy to take on Jimmy Carter,
and they were going to strike, and they knew that
Carter would cave and they would give them what they wanted.
(10:56):
So Reagan was clearly not going to do that. And
I went down to the white and I saw Drew Lewis,
who was Secretary of Transportation, and they said, look, we're
headed towards a real crunch here, and is the president
really going to fire these guys? And Lewis said to me, look,
you want Reagan to succeed. I said, of course. He said, well,
we have to break the back of wage inflation. Now
(11:17):
we have two choices. We have nineteen thousand air traffic
controllers in June and six hundred and thirty seven thousand
postal workers in August. Which one do you think we
ought to pick? The head on collision left and I said,
got it. I went back to see the air traffic
controllers and I said, guys, this isn't Jimmy Carner. He's
(11:38):
going to fire you. And they said, oh, he can't
fire us. They'll close the whole system down. They'll never
be able to do it well. Omegan people were smart,
they'd already organized the replacements. The system had about a
three day period of glitches, and then it worked perfectly.
They all lost their jobs. Now, the reason I said
this story is the Freedom Caucus right now is a
(12:00):
little bit like the professional air traffic controllers. They're still
using all the techniques they developed to fight Biden, but
now that that Trump. So instead of picking fights and
reaching for exaggerated positions and trying to maximize temporary leverage
for three days, what they ought to be doing is
working with Johnson and with the President and figuring out
(12:21):
positive ways to get the maximum done you can while
getting a bill through in either May or June, which
you desperately have to do if you're gonna keep the House,
and then work on additional projects. I mean, it's not
like Trump is in any way gonna walk off. He's
gonna want more goodies, he's gonna want more reform, he's
gonna want more change. And I have a chance if
they could just unlock their brains, say themselves, this is
(12:44):
not this is not Joe Biden, this is not Kamala Harris,
this is Donald J. Trump. Maybe I could work with him.
I think the Freedom Caucus could be enormously valuable if
it decided to be cooperative.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Well, I think so to look, they're either going to
succeed together or failed together. But I think in the end,
I think that the sheer, you know, power and popularity
of Donald Trump is going to propel all of them
to do something that maybe they wouldn't otherwise do, and
that is unite behind his agenda, which I think is
ultimately going to be good for the country. I want
(13:21):
to go back to this issue though the Democrats seem
to have doubled down on all of this reckless international
you know spending.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
I mean, if you can explain to.
Speaker 8 (13:31):
Me now, just this is their world since Franklin Roosevelt
in nineteen thirty three.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
But Franklin Roosevelt wasn't spending American tax dollars for sesame
street shows in Iraq and transgender comic books and transgender
operas and dei musicals.
Speaker 8 (13:52):
Of course not. But I'm just saying that machine, that
system which which grew even bigger under Lyndon Johnson's Great Society,
and then move to the left over the last twenty
years in the sort of an insane left wing parent version.
I mean, it's it's very hard for me to fully
understand why they're prepared to die on these things. But
(14:12):
the left wing of the Democratic Party, this is life
and death. I mean, this is not politics, this is
their very identity, and I think it's very hard for
them to back down, and they're gonna they're very I
think they're going to cause the civil war in the
Democratic Party. I think there will be a nut wing
of the party which will be very left wing, very.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Radically, but they control the party. I can name three
or three people that have spoken out against it. James Carvill,
David Axelrod and Rom Rombo, Dead Fisher, Manual the Clinton
people the only ones with enough common sense to say
this is stupid. All right, mister speaker, we can hold
you a little bit longer if you don't mind. Eight
hundred ninety four one. Shawn is on number. We'll also
(14:52):
get to your calls next half hour as well as
we continue High twenty five till the top of the hour.
Your calls coming up. Eight hundred and ninety four one,
Shawn our number. Also our final moments with former Speaker
of the House New Kingridge. And we've had so much
coming up, it's unbelievable. We have a pretty big announcement
(15:13):
coming up by the end of the week. We'll tell
you about after more than what over a year, almost
a year and a half war on terror, radical Islamic terrorism.
I mean, look at where the Democratic Party is and
they weren't there for Israel in their time and need.
That's all there is to it. Donald Trump is and
we saw the King of Jordan with the President of
(15:33):
the Oval Office today and future plans to demilitarize Gaza
and a vision that nobody's ever brought up in the
past to revitalize the area and turn it into a
job creation you know, boom for the entire area and
everybody could prosper and it would take Arab countries to
(15:54):
get involved. But in the meantime, that doesn't help the
people in the Holy Land that are suffering, the tens
and tens of thousands that have been displaced from their homes,
people that need fair necessities, They need food, water, shelter, medicines, clothing,
you name it. They need it, and they need it desperately.
Israel still fighting a seven front war and thankfully the
(16:16):
International Fellowship of Christians and Jews are supporting all of
these people. Whatever you can give this month is desperately needed.
If you can give an ongoing give to forty five
dollars a month, it is critically needed to aid all
of these displaced people. It's humanitarian relief people in the
North and the South devastated by the war, and your
(16:38):
donation will deliver to those in need. And we're talking
about evacuees, refugees from these war torn areas, first responders, volunteers, soldiers,
elderly Holocaust survivors, even families who've lost everything. Anyway, please
join us in our support of the IFCJ. Their website,
support IFCJ one word dot org, or support i f
(17:01):
CJ dot org. They have a toll free number. It's
eighty eight eight four eight eight I f c J
eight eight eight four eight eight I f c J
today and thank you in advance. Your help is desperately needed.
We continue. Former Speaker of the House New Gingrich, Okay,
So look at the recent elections of the new head
(17:23):
and and the second in charge is David ho Guy
of the DNC to me radical left, far left of
of even Kamala Harris, and they seem to have as
a party even Chuck Schumer have doubled down in their
strategy is to fight for you know this, the reckless
(17:44):
tens and hundreds of billions of dollars waste, fraud, abuse
and corruption abroad, not even money spent on Americans for Americans.
And then they doubled down on the they want to
keep the borders open and and there's there's absolutely nothing
but complain about Donald Trump finding illegal immigrants that were unvetted,
(18:05):
even known terrorists, rapists, murderers, cartel members, gang members. And
then the third thing is they've doubled down on men
playing women's sports. That that that the only three examples
are the ones I gave you at the end of
the last half hour, and that is James Carvel, David
Axelrod and Ramammanuel saying you guys better let this go
because it's a it's jack assery to quote James Carvill
(18:28):
so eloquently stating it. But they but this is the party, now,
this is not this is not the party you dealt
with when you were speaker. This is not the days
that Tip O'Neil when Reagan was president.
Speaker 8 (18:42):
Look, this is a religious movement disguised as a political party.
I mean, you're asking them to give up their deepest
held values.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (18:54):
And I'm talking about the left for this. And it's
not totally true if there are people out there who
are not totally crazy, but the hardcore part of the
Democratic Party of the day is a religious movement. It's
a movement which believes in transgenderism as the highest ultimate value.
It's a movement which believes in open borders and that
it would be inherently wrong to have any suggestion that
(19:19):
America really is a country. It is a movement which
believes that we shouldn't celebrate the two hundred and fiftieth
birthday next year, because after all, we are a racist, homophobic,
exploitee of country, and therefore we should be ashamed that
we've lasted two hundred and fifty years. I mean, these
(19:39):
people believe that stuff. They sit around and talk to
each other in that kind of language, and then they
dominate the universe, the elite university so much that to
walk in and say, isn't it great that we're going
to celebrate two hundred and fifty years of freedom. We'll
get you into a fight, And so they can't unlock
(20:00):
because it's equivalent asking a religious movement to somehow behave rationally.
And then the very nature of faith based movements is
that they're impervious to practical rationality.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I mean, it's an opportunity, and this is something that you,
as a historian, can uniquely comment on to me that
that is right in front of our eyes, where this
could be the most consequential and transformational presidency in history.
I mean, we can now dismantle the nanny state of government,
(20:37):
return to constitutional order, return to the vision of our
framers and founders, return to the idea and ideals of
limited government, greater freedom, and really and truly once and
forever hopefully eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. And I think
all of that now is real, It's all possible.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
I'll just say to everybody.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
Listening to us today to say, we just got to
the dance.
Speaker 8 (21:04):
So I'm guessing now that's right, we did just get
to the dance. But I think the first step of
the dance is to pass a very large tax cut,
deregulation energy bill by may or June, and I would
urge everybody listening to you and me today to pick
up the phone after the show and call Lindsey Graham's
office and tell him that he needs to support the
(21:26):
House and pass one big bill before certainly no later
than may or June, so that we can have the
economy growing by the beginning of twenty six, so we
can run for reelection and actually gain seats in the House,
and we have a real chance. We have thirteen districts
held by people Democrats to Donald Trump, Kerry, we have
(21:47):
another twenty one districts where he go within five percent.
Their votes are exactly what you said. They're so crazy
to the left that if we communicate that we could
actually gain seats next year. The difference from America between
losing the House and having Hakeem Jeffries pretend that he's
Nancy Pelosi and immediately launch investigations, launch impeachments, do everything
(22:09):
he can to stop Trump. The difference between that future
and the future where the Republicans keep the House and
Speaker Johnson is working as an ally with Trump. That
gap is so enormous and The key to that is
to pass a Sperry tax cut, energy and deregulation bill
no later than May or June. And for some reason,
(22:30):
Lindsey Graham was in a very important Budget Committee position,
doesn't seem to get it. And so I'm just appealing
to everybody give Lindsay a call and tell him that
he needs to get one bill. It has to be
the economic bill, and it has to get to the
cent President no later that.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
I don't know that Lindsey's leading this effort. My understanding
is when President Trump met with the US Senate, this
is prior to him being inaugurated, is that many in
the Senate, including conservatives like that, had Cruzberg arguing for
two bills.
Speaker 8 (23:02):
They were, but they're not the Budget Committee chairman. I mean,
he put in his power to sit down with Mike
Johnson and President Trump work out a joint single bill.
I mean, the idea of two bills I think is suicide.
It means you're giving up the House next year.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
In my judgment, and it's got to be done quickly
because you got to give the economy time to recover.
Until you implement Trump's economic policies, that has no chance
of recovery.
Speaker 8 (23:30):
That's right. I mean Reagan lost twenty six seats in
his first off year because the tax cuts didn't go
into effect until till nineteen eighty three. Trump lost forty
four seats in twenty eighteen because they messed around trying
to repeal Obamacare failed and didn't get around to a
tax bill till October. Now, at some point you got
to say them, guys, this is the absolute historic record.
(23:54):
And I think as the guy who helped create the
first majority in forty years and the first re elect
the majority since nineteen twenty eight I think I have
some knowledge of this business. And I'll tell you I
am very, very worried that the Senate doesn't get it.
They don't understand the importance of getting this tax bill
through early. And then, frankly, it's not their skin if
the House goes Democrats. But it's sure is Donald Trump's skin,
(24:18):
and it sure is the country's skin.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
It really is, mister speaker.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
These are historic times, and I do agree with you
that I think that Americans need to stay in touch
with their elected representatives. And at appropriate times we'll be
giving out that phone number. People will have it burned
into their memory bank and hopefully they'll call people be
respectful and anyway. We appreciate your time as always, Thank.
Speaker 8 (24:43):
You, Thank you, Take care.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Eight hundred nine four one Shawn is our number if
you want to be a part of the program. Rosemary, Florida,
my free state. What's up, Rosemary? How are you well?
Speaker 3 (24:53):
I'm just calling, Oh.
Speaker 4 (24:54):
Rose Marie, I believe I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
That's okay. I'm just calling because I think this is
a genius idea what Donald Trump has Elon Musk doing.
Elon Musk is an outside auditor. And everyone that's screaming
that he has no right to see this government agency
or what's going on in that government agency, he does
(25:19):
because he's there to keep it on the straight and narrow.
I worked in banking for over thirty years. I can't
tell you how many times we were met unannounced by
an outside auditing firm. Not auditors that were employed by
the bank, but an outside firm. And when they would
come that day, they'd be there in the parking lot
before you. So anything you did from the time you
(25:43):
unlocked your bank doors you had to do with an auditor.
You couldn't sign on your computer, you couldn't go into
your bank vault. You couldn't do anything without the auditor
there watching what you were doing, counting your cash to
see if it matched up with your closing the night before. Figure.
I mean, this is just what people and really the
(26:06):
Democrats don't realize that no matter what financial institution you
deal with, goes through audits. And they not only do
that for the cash count later on in the day,
the auditors actually go through signature cards, safe deposit box cards,
checks that are written out, so people that are not
employed by the bank, the auditors from the outside firm
(26:29):
have all this information on the customers. Customers never complained.
We never stood there last week like Maxine Waters, did
you know, shaking the doors trying to get in. We
couldn't do a thing. We just waited until the auditors
did their job, and then we were given the okay,
we can sign on to our computers. Now we can
(26:50):
do our cash. But I just think this was ingenius
idea and Elon Musk is doing exactly exactly what he's
supposed to do.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
I agree.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I think what he's doing is heroic and the fact
that he's being demonized it speaks volumes. But the American
people will support him and support what he's doing, and
they don't want their money spent this way. And just
like most people don't want men and women's sports, and
just like most people support the president's policies on deporting
those people that didn't respect our laws, borders, sovereignty and
(27:22):
getting rid of these criminals and others. Anyway, good call, Rosemarie,
Thank you. I quick break. We'll come right back. More
of your phone calls coming up. Eight hundred nine one, Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program
as we roll along.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
The final hour of the Sean Hannity Show was up next,
hang on for Seawn's conservative solutions.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
All right, let's get back to our busy phones. Eight
hundred nine, Shawn, if you'd like to join us. Let's
say hi to John in South Carolina. What's up, John?
How are you good?
Speaker 8 (28:07):
Afternoon?
Speaker 7 (28:08):
I'll make it quick. You were much more familiar with
the process of getting an item attached to a spending mill.
My question is who hired the paid lobbyists these wasteful spendings.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
You see, it was even more sinister than that if
you look at us, aid, Because you're bringing up a
very good question who's responsible. Well, I think the people
that are screaming the loudest, we've figured out are the
ones that are the most responsible, right because you know,
no American would support their hard earned tax dollars going
to programs like this. Now, there have been attempts at
(28:45):
congressional oversight and inquiry that have failed because they thought
they were being very clever, and they would obscure and
hide deceitfully at what where the money was really going,
and they would put a lofty title and meanwhile we
find out where the money really went and what the
money was really for. So the process was they they'd
(29:10):
passed the budget and they'd fund us AID and then
usai D would spend all this money and there was
no oversight at all whatsoever, no accountability at all whatsoever.
And now that they're being exposed is why they're being
they're so angry. Now, why are they so angry Because
