Sean Hannity interviews Senator Tom Cotton about alleged politicization within the intelligence community, including claims of leaks by James Comey and reforms announced by DNI Tulsi Gabbard to streamline the office. Cotton argues the DNI has become bloated and supports staff reductions, clearance revocations, and declassification to refocus on coordination rather than collection. They assert that Democratic appointees drove faulty 2016 assessments and that FBI/DOJ actions, including the Mar-a-Lago raid and pre-2020 social media briefings, amounted to election interference. The discussion portrays legal actions against Donald Trump as politically motivated "lawfare" and calls for accountability via potential charges such as lying to investigators or obstruction. Later, Hannity credits National Guard deployments and policing initiatives in Washington, D.C., with a sharp drop in murders and highlights ongoing arrests and cleanup efforts.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now back to the best of Sean Hannity.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Well, we have come in, you.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Will be and if you want a little come along.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
And it is a big day.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
I think either way it's a big day.
Speaker 5 (00:31):
But if we get this solved, it's a really big
day because we're going to save a lot of lives.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Do you then decide, Okay, we're gonna use mustard gas
on civilians. What Trump ordered Abba to do in Texas
is mustard gas on democracy.
Speaker 6 (00:44):
And the perception of this of the Biden presidency is
just a weak and ineffective presidency.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
But the fact of the matter is his legacy is
Donald Trump came back.
Speaker 7 (00:53):
Freedom is back in the style.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Welcome to the coming Conscious News Sean Hennity Show. I'm
the scenes, information on freaking news and more bold inspired
(01:17):
solutions for America. Coming up next, our final News Roundup
and Information Overload Hour.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
News round Up and Information Overload Hour. Here's our toll
free telephone number if you want to be a part
of the program. Uh We welcome back. Senator Tom Cotton.
He released a statement on the Director of National Intelligence
TULSEI Gabbard's announcement. He said Congress created the office of
Director of National Intelligence to be a lean organization that
(01:48):
use small staffs to coordinate across the intelligence community execute
specific important tasks. And today's announcement, remember the earlier in
the week shows on Hannity, and they took away thirty
seven security clearances number one and number two. They're cutting
back the size and scope of what the organization is
because they've gotten away from their original intent. He said,
(02:11):
it will make the d and I stronger, more effective
for national security. For the President, I look forward to
working with Director Gabbert to implement these reforms and provide
the ODNI with legislative relief necessary to ensure our intelligence
community can focus on its core mission, and that is
stealing secrets from our adversaries. Anyway, Senator Cotton, great to
(02:35):
have you back, Thank you for being with us. A
lot of news that is unfolding as it relates to
the deep State. John Solomon will be with us at
the bottom of the hour, and his report on James
Comy is very breathtaking in terms of they have smoking
gun evidence according to John that in fact, they were
purposeful leaks of classified information to reporters coming from Comy
(02:58):
directly himself. He's going to lay out the case. He's
got all the documents, he put him up on his website.
And then of course we have James Comer today finding
out that with the most informative interview of his probe
so far into this conspiracy that he only met twice,
meaning Ian Sam's who testified today, only met twice with Biden.
But he was saying, oh, it's a conspiracy theory if
(03:19):
you dare talk about his cognitive state. And Mike Howell,
president of the Oversight Project, is pointing out that Biden's
own Justice Department was warning directly that these last minute
of pardons and commutations were not going to be legal,
and he lists four specific reasons why, and nobody paid
attention to them. And on top of that, the FBI
(03:42):
director Cash Bettel said there was no constitutional basis, no
lawful predicate for Biden's Justice Department and FBI to carry
out the rate at mar A Lago.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
A lot going on.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Everything that we have been reporting on seems to be,
you know, more and more evidence is coming out every
day that it was all true, all of it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Sean.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
There certainly has a lot going on in this front,
and I think it's important that the Democratic politicians and
the bureaucrats who perpetuated the Russia collusion hoax are being
exposed and will be held accountable. Some of them, it
seems like, from what I've learned, may be held criminally
accountable in certain cases. But we also have the important
(04:22):
reforms that Tulca Gabbard announced this week. The D and
I has grown bloated and bureaucratic from its original intent
of Congress twenty years ago. This is something she and
I discussed in our first conversation after President Trump nominated her.
We both addressed in her confirmation hearings and at my committee.
The Intelligence Committee passed legislation to help implements a couple
(04:44):
months ago that I expect to pass Congress later this year.
I mean, the D and I does not collect intelligence.
They don't have agents running around the world, they don't
have satellites. They're supposed to be a coordinating function. They're
not supposed to be involved in politicizing intelligence, really giving
directives on how agencies use their own internal assets. But
(05:05):
when you have as many people as the D and
I has had in recent years, it does open up
the possibility of mishift making. When people don't have legitimate
intelligence functions and responsibilities on the plate, then they start
cooking up the kind of things that justify their jobs
and their budgets and so forth. So what Director Gabbert
announced this week is an important first step. We've been
working with her closely. Some of the problems with the
(05:27):
D and I. I'll confession, there's the problems of Congress
over the last twenty years, imposing new mandates on them,
creating centers that are superfluous or not related to intelligence
at all. And it's going to take our legislation to
eliminate those offices and those centers so the D and
I can get back to its original focus of ensuring
that intelligence is coordinated across all the agencies while letting
(05:49):
those agencies do their primary job.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
What do you make of Tulse's declassification and what we
learned as it relates to the twenty sixteen election, And
I asked her the other night on TV, I said, so,
is it your assessment that what happened in twenty sixteen
is that deep state actors tried to use phony information
(06:14):
about a Russia connection to Donald Trump that they knew
didn't exist, so that it would help Tillery win the election,
and do you believe that after they lost the election
and senior career intelligence officials ascertained with their intelligence analysis
that there was no Trump Russia collusion and that Obama
and his top lieutenants didn't like that assessment, and they
(06:36):
came up with a new assessment that said just the opposite,
and then they used the dirty Russian disinformation dossier that
was bought and paid for by Hillary to write a
new assessment to make Donald Trump look bad.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
What do you make of all of that? Is that
criminal to you?
Speaker 7 (06:52):
Shot from what Telca Gabbers released as well what John
Rackcliff at the CIA is released, and that comes from
senior career intelligence officials at the CIA, it appears that
this rot came from the Democratic political appointees. In fact,
one of the batches of releases from the DNI about
a month ago showed that you had career officials who
(07:14):
are pushing back against Jim Clapper, against John Brennan, and
against Jim Comey saying they shouldn't proceed. So in some ways,
it's the intelligence officials that were trying to protect the
reputation and integrity of their own work and their agencies
against these democratic political appointees. I think that's what took
(07:37):
a lot of people, or what struck a lot of people,
is that it really started at the top. And it
seems that Sean had frankly gone all the way up
to the very top with Barack Obama in the transition
period of twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen, and it's proven
out by FBI investigation and with the Department of Justice prosecutors,
and any of these people were involved in violating the law,
(07:58):
then certainly if the statute of limitations has not run,
then they would face criminal liability as they should for
engaging in criminal misconduct.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
Well, I mean, when you think of all of that,
and then you factor in if in fact, we have
deep state powerful actors that are using the intelligence community
and what should be the greatest law enforcement agency in
the entire world, the FBI, and they're putting cinder blocks
on the scales of elections. I would argue they did
(08:27):
the same thing in twenty twenty because the FBI knew
that Rudy Giuliani's attorney, Bob Costello, had a copy of
Hunter Biden's laptop. They knew that story would break. They
verified the authenticity of the laptop in March of twenty twenty.
They went about the process in the summer of twenty
twenty of meeting with big tech companies every single week,
(08:50):
warning them they may be victims of a disinformation campaign.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
It may be about Hunter, it may be about Joe Biden.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
And then sure enough the story breaks and Mark zucker
Berg of Meta, then Facebook, and Jack Dorsey of then Twitter,
you know, call and say, is this what you were
warning us about? And they would not tell them what
they knew to be true, that it was authentic, that
it was real, that they had verified such is that
putting center blocks on the scale of an election.
Speaker 7 (09:19):
It certainly sounds like it, Sean, And it is really
important that we get to the bottom of all this,
that all appropriate material is declassified and released, because it's
not enough just to have people like Pambondi and Cash
Betel in charge now and be confident that this is
not going to happen again, at least for the next
three and a half years. It really is necessary to
(09:39):
expose what happened and hold those people to account, even
if let's say a statute limitations has exposed, hold them
publicly to account. So it never happens again. So no
unelected bureaucrat or no democratic appointee in the future thinks
that they can use law enforcement or intelligence agencies to
influence themstic politics here in America.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
It's pretty unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
And you know now that we're learning from cash Bettel
that the FBI rate on mar Lago literally he determined
that it was illegal, and he said, now's the time
for accountability. He said there was no constitutional basis, no
lawful predicate for it. And then, of course, on one
of the top stories of the day, the President now
(10:24):
celebrating his victory over the you know, over Letitia James
in this ridiculous settlement of five hundred and fifteen million
dollars as it you know, relates to a mortgage case
which is unprecedented, and a judge that you know stood
by evaluation of mar Lago of eighteen million dollars when
(10:44):
it's when it's a billion to a billion and a
half dollars, and they got away with all of that,
and all of the other law fair the novel legal
theory of Alvin Bragg, the rate of mar a Lago,
all of these things combined, I mean to me that's
more election interference. That's more that their job then was
to bloody up Donald Trump, to make him, you know,
(11:05):
to make render him not a viable candidate for president.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
Of my view, se sean to borrow a phrase from
our Democratic friends, it sounds to me like a threat
to democracy. And it's so funny that they always levy
that charge against President Trump and against us, when they're
the ones who, again, over the last ten years, have
rapeatedly used law enforcements and litigation to try to tar
(11:31):
Donald Trump, to try to convict him and imprison him
for the rest of his life, or in the case
that was just overturned today, to find him a half
billion dollars for what seawan taking out loans that he repaid.
I remember when that judgment first came down last year.
I was talking to a farmer in Arkansas and he's like,
what are they even talking about up there? You take
out a loan, you repay it all. Who's the victim?
(11:52):
I bet the banks are happy, and they weren't happy,
of course.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Well that was the case.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
I mean it was in the case of the Nonda
disclosure agreement, it was a legal non disclosure agreement. It
was put together by a lawyer. It was labeled the
legal expense. The statute of limitations had run out. It
was a misdemeanor to begin with in the state of
New York, even though the statute of limitations had run out.
And then to come up with this novel legal theory
(12:17):
and then send the third highest ranking DOJ official from
the Biden Justice Department to help out. Alvin Bragg tells
me they wanted that conviction as badly again to bloody
up Trump and render him unelectable.
Speaker 7 (12:30):
Yeah. Now, fortunately sean at backfired on them. But again
it's just an example of how they need to be
exposed so this never happens again. At least say, you know,
they had a legal theory that that gussied up what
was a misdemeanor into a filmy. They never even adequately
explained the legal theory. The liberal judge that presided over
this case and allowed the conviction to go forward or
allowed the case to go to a jury at all,
(12:51):
never explained the legal theory period. They would were willing
to break any role, any procedure, any custom, all an
effort to get Trump, to bankrupt him, to convict him,
to imprison him. Thank goodness, the American people saw through
it all and not allowed to influence their choice in
the election last year.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
All right, quick break, We'll come back more with Senator
Tom Cotton, Great State of Arkansas as we continue with him,
and then John Solomon is breaking news regarding James Comy
and the leaking of intelligence and information classified information. He
feels he has smoking gun evidence. He'll share that with
us at the bottom of the hour. Well, full coverage
(13:30):
of all of this on Hannity tonight on the Fox
News Channel. Quick Break, right back, we'll continue.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Fall a mainstream media is asleep at the wheel. Hannity
watches on the job, bringing you the news no one
else can.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Peter Sean Kennedy, I would.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Continue now with Senator Tom Cotton, Great State of Arkansas's
with us. You know, a lot of people listening to
this show. We'll think back and they'll remember investigations that
we've had, you know, Hillary Clinton's dirty bought and paid
for dossier. James call me protecting Hillary with you know,
no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute. But then, of course a
double standard occurred when mar A Lago got raided and
(14:24):
she did not have the protections that Donald Trump did
with the with the Presidential Authorization Act, where he had
access to these papers, she never had the ability to
take them with her. The same with Joe Biden. Again,
a double standard, a dual justice system. And I just wonder,
you know, and I know my audience is wondering, because
(14:47):
everybody I talked to says, do you think something's going
to happen this time? Are people really going to be
held accountable for what they've done here?
Speaker 7 (14:53):
Shawn, I am because I have confidence in Cash Betail,
in Pam Bondy to follow the law and to not
break the rules the Democrats did while being aggressive within
the law. And SHAWNA. I predict that if charges are
brought against any of these thirty Democratic players, and they
happen to happen to involve the charges that are so
(15:13):
often been brought against Republicans over the past several decades,
lying to Congress, lying to federal investigators, substruction of justice,
You're going to hear wailing and crying from Democrats and
from liberals in the media about how this happens all
the time, and these are not serious actions, and they're
engaged in legal warfare when it's aok against Donald Trump,
(15:34):
or for that matter, against Ronald Reagan's appointees, or against
George W. Bush's appointees. It was all fine and dandy
back then, and it was a matter of high principle.
But when it's going when the shoes on the other foot,
and Democrats are being held accountable for things like lying
to federal investigators or obstruction of justice or conspiracy against
civil rights, then all of a sudden, those charges are
(15:55):
not going to be serious at all. In the case
where everyone does it and Donald Trump's doj under, Pam
Bondi and cashtail Well is engaging in that ragious misconduct conduct.
Just mark mark my word, Sean when you hear that.
But I'm confident that Pam and Cash, if there are legal,
legal case to be made and it's colorable under the
law and under precedent, will move forward to hold these
people accountable.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
It is amazing that these you know, all this information
that they didn't get rid of it. These burn bags
they left them there, This this information, this paper trail,
they left it there. They're supposed to be so clever
and so smart, you would think they would have covered
their own tracks. But the discoveries that they're making every day,
you know, Frankly take my breath away. And as somebody
(16:37):
who reported on all of these issues, I spent you know,
four years of my life reporting on Russia, Russia, Russia,
and it even extends beyond that. It is it is
kind of breathtaking. But Senator Tom Cotton, we always appreciate
you being with us. Thank you, sir. Eight hundred ninety
four one, Shawn. If you want to be a part
of the program.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Mode and Inspired Solutions for America, This is the Sean
Hannity Show.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Right twenty five till the top of the hour, eight
hundred and nine four one, Sean, if you want to
be a part of the program. You know, we talk
a lot about law and order and safety and security.
We've talked a lot about you know, thanks to Biden,
Harris may Orcus and all these Democrats and a complicit
media lying now we have known terrorists and murderers and
rapists and cartel members and gang members in the country,
(17:29):
on top of Americans that are murderers and rapists and
drug dealers and violent criminals and gang members, et cetera.
I mean, I wish that evil didn't exist. Evil does exist.
Deliver us. You know, Leada's not into temptation, but deliver
us from Evil. Actually wrote a whole book about it
called Deliverers from Evil. And there are people that would
(17:51):
you know, wouldn't think twice about killing you and killing
your family and killing you and killing your employees. And
so the President, to his credit, is out there, went
on patrol yesterday and is feeding the agents, the National
Guard troops that have been out there on patrol. And
lo and behold, we've had a successful week in the
(18:13):
nation's capital. Now before President Trump got involved, Washington, d C.
Is the number one capital city in terms of homicides
forty one per one hundred thousand people. The next highest
homicide rate is sixteen. I mean, that's how bad it's
gotten in Washington, d C. And on top of that,
what did we learn. We learned that officers are now
(18:36):
speaking out, whistleblowers are speaking out, the police union is
speaking out, and they're saying, yeah, those numbers are inaccurate
because they have been purposely cooking the books and lying
to the country and lining to the people in DC. Washington,
d C averaged three point six murders a week in
twenty twenty four. Compared to zero murders dens. Donald Trump
(18:58):
deployed the National Guard. The message has gone out. Pam
Bondi is updating the arrest statistics. They've got over six
hundred and fifty six arrests at this point, including by
the way, eighty six illegal guns. They're making incredible progress.
Here's the President. He was out on patrol yesterday. He
was handing out pizza and burgers and thanking people, the
(19:21):
guards and law enforcement for doing the great job they're
doing to keep the people in DC safe and secure.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
We've had some incredible results and results have come out
and it's like a different place.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
It's like a different city. It's the capital. It's going
to be the best in the world.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
We're going to do what you're doing with law enforcement,
and very.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Importantly also, we're going to physically do it.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
We're going back to Congress for some money, and we're
gonna redo a lot of the pavement, a lot of
the medians, a lot of the Graffiti's all coming off
real fast. It's going to come down real fast, and
we're going to be not so much building, it's cleaning
and fixing and redoing and putting brand new surfaces.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Down on your roads and streets, and when people come
in from the airport all the way to the Capitol,
of the White House or any place else they going,
they're going to say, woll this place is spotless.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You do the job and.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Safety, and I'll get this place fixed up physically, and
we're going to be so proud of it at the
end of six months. But let's say at the end
of a year, this place will be maxed out in
terms of beauty.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
I talk all the time on this program that I
have a personal safety security strategy for every situation that
I know that I'm going to find myself in when
I go out at my home, when I'm at work,
you have to. I've had too many threats over the
course of my career, and I won't talk about them often,
but I've had plenty of them. And you know, it
(20:45):
was especially tough when you have young kids and you're
getting real threats, including fatwah on my head. That was
not a pleasant time in my life. But I am
urging everybody you must have a personal safety security plan
you and your family. There are bad evil people in
this world. I wish they didn't exist. And I said
(21:06):
this when I wrote, Deliver us from evil is that
it's very hard for good people to wrap their minds
around the concept that evil does exist and evil doesn't
think twice. You know, an evil human being? How evil
do you have to be to harm a child, to
rape a child? Those pedophiles exist, That is evil, The
(21:27):
lowest scum of the earth, or people that wouldn't blink
and take your life or take the life of your
spouse or your children. They don't care. So you know,
we have you know, there is the lethal option, and
I carry a pistol. I've been a believer in the
Second Amendment my entire life. I usually carry the six
(21:47):
hour P. Three sixty five in case your interest that
I also have my burner cl which is a non
lethal option. And I've been urging all of you their
advertisers on this program, but that's not why I'm having
them on today.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
This is not an infomercial.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
This is about how to protect yourself, your family if
that God forbid moment ever comes. And you see this
in small towns and big cities all across the country,
this idiocy of defund dismantled no bail laws. Look at this,
you know, look at the recent criminal that got out
and killed somebody had been in jail you know, for
(22:22):
less than twenty four hours before, and four separate arrests.
How many more people are going to have to die?
And what are you going to do if the God
forbid moment comes in your life? I care too much
about all of you in this audience. The life I live,
which is my dream that has come true, is only
because of all of you. And if I don't share
with you, you know my passionate belief that everybody needs
(22:46):
a security and safety strategy, regardless of who you are,
where you live, what your age is, what your sex is,
it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you're trained in
situational self defense as I am, because you may not
have that opportunity. I just urge everyone. I think one way.
And there are people that are afraid of firearm, for example,
(23:08):
but I don't think you'll be afraid of the non
lethal option. It's legal in all fifty states. You don't
need a permit, you don't need a background check. It
fires very powerful projectiles and that's tear gas, pepper spray,
kinetic rounds, and you can incapacitate any perpetrator. You can
hit a target forty to fifty sixty feet away with
(23:29):
incredible accuracy. I know because I practiced with my burner,
and I can shoot that more than I can my
pistol because of the hearing loss I've had with all
these years that have been on radio. Anyway, we have
Josh Chirard is with us. He is director of law
enforcement for Burner, and Brian Gann, CEO of Berner and Anyway,
(23:49):
they both join us today. You know now that the
nation's kind of dialed in and focusing their attention on
safety and security.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I don't. I can't tell you how many.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
Advertisers and lender can back me up on this.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
People.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
I'll give you an example. Gambling companies. They want betting
betting sites. They have offered US millions and millions and
millions of dollars to be advertisers on the program. I
did it one early point when they first started, but
I had no idea have become such a nationwide epidemic
in terms of gambling addiction, and I don't really want
to be a part of it. The only advertisers I
(24:26):
take and that I will give my endorsement to are
products that I truly believe in and your product, Brian.
When we first met, I knew right away that this
had the potential to really become big. Now you've become
bigger than ever. Five hundred plus government agencies support this technology.
They're using your products, police departments, private security firms. You know,
(24:49):
I would just surge to everybody, please look at their videos,
educate yourself with them, decide for yourself if this technology
is good for you anyway.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Good to have you back, and same with you, Josh
gat to have you back.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Well, it's great to be on the show with you. Sean,
thank you very much. You know, I remember the first
time I came down to your house and we're out
in the backyard and we're shooting, and I said, look,
you know, I've been a gun owner my whole life,
but you know, I don't know how quick i'd be
to pull the trigger, and you know, and then I
worry if I hesitate, is that a fatal hesitation for me?
(25:21):
And I said, what do you think do I represent
five percent or ten percent of gun owners? And I'll
never forget this, Sean, he said to me. He says, Brian,
I'm a gun owner, two been a gun owner my
whole life, he said. He said, but ninety percent of
gun owners live in mortal fear of having to pull
the trigger and take a life because the consequences of
doing that, particularly in the society we live in today,
(25:43):
are overwhelming, I mean legally financially and with the BURNO,
we give people the opportunity to stop at assailant without
the risk of taking a life or causing permanent injury.
And you know, it's been very important to me, and
I know it's been very important to you.
Speaker 6 (26:00):
Break more with Josherard and Brian Ganz on the other
side from Berner BYRNA dot com. By the way, they're
not just advertisers, they're friends, and they want to keep
you and your family safe and secure. Then your call's
coming up.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Look.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Ever since I was able to start saving money, which
by the way, was not until my late twenties in
my life, I mean, I was living paycheck to paycheck
for a lot of years there. But I guess somebody
I wish i'd remembered who told me I should invest
a part of my savings in gold and silver. And
I've done that ever since, and now I'm so glad
(26:34):
that I did. It's been of great value also gives
me peace of mind. And if you want to help,
you know, balance and safeguard your money. Gold precious metals
has been a hedge against inflation and other economic you know,
fluctuations over the many, many years and decades. But I
have a partner now and it's a precious metals company,
(26:56):
and I'm a customer like many of you are. It's

Hey, if you're with Verizon AT and T T Mobile,
you are overpaying for wireless period end of sentence. You're
paying for thousands of retail stores that you're never going
to go to. You're paying for unnecessary perks that you'll
never use. But guess what my cell phone provider, Pure Talk.
They use the same five G network, the same cell towers.
The only difference they don't charge you for any of
(27:44):
the garbage. Instead, Puretalk will give you unlimited talk, unlimited text,
plenty of data, twenty five bucks a month. That's real
money in your pocket for the exact same service. And
guess what you can keep your phone and your phone number,
which is simple, fast, easy dial pound two fifty. Say
the keywords save now. You'll save an additional fifty percent
(28:06):
off your first month and you can be switched over

(28:28):
now with Josh Sharrada's with us and Brian gans with us.
They are with Berner BYRNA dot Comya. They're an advertiser,
but they're also friends, and they also have something that
can keep you and your family safe and secure. When
I first saw the technology and I was training when
I first met you, and my sense Glenn Rubin was
(28:49):
there and we were both flown away by the technology.
Immediately I liked it. I couldn't believe it. And by
the way, when you people hear how are you shooting
in your backyard? Okay, I had many many acres of
land and it was very wooded and it was not
a problem. But I hope people be critical, like they
may think I lived on a fifty by one hundred
lot that I grew up in. But the reality is
(29:11):
this evil is real, and the reality is people have
to defend themselves. And Josh, you know, maybe for people
that are reluctant to go with a firearm and lethal force,
at the very least, I think you need a burner
in your household. I have numerous burners that are strategically
located all throughout my house. To be very honest, I'm
not giving away my personal security strategy. I'm telling you
(29:33):
stay away from my house. It's not going to end
well for you.
Speaker 7 (29:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Absolutely.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
You know I've been a cop for over twenty years
and carried a gun for that long as well. But
I also am a statskuy. I'm data driven and I
want to know. Not only do I want to prepare
for the worst case scenario, I want to be able
to be prepared for what's most likely to happen. And
when we look at stats, historically, the chance of you
having to use deadly force in the course of your
life is astronomically low. We're talking in twenty three, four
(30:01):
hundred and seven, there were four hundred and seventy one
justifiable homicides in the United States. So four hundred and
seventy one people had to utilize a gun to defend
themselves and kill another individual. That's one in seven hundred
thousand chants of you having to do that. Now, when
we look at the victimization of just violent crime in
general of a lesser degree, your chances of being a
victim of some sort of violent crime are about one
(30:23):
in two hundred and sixty one in two hundred and sixty,
So your chance of having to use some sort of
self defense that's less than lethal self defense is so
much greater.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Why wouldn't you have some sort of plan.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
Why wouldn't you have some sort of tool, some sort
of device to be able to make sure that you
can defend yourself among so many different circumstances, Because you
are not going to be taking someone's life. The chance
of you having to pull the trigger and and kill
someone in someone's life just is so so very low.
This is really just so applicable to so many situations
(30:59):
and so many different But.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
You know, Sean, it's interesting. I was on a podcast
the other day with John Locke, and I don't know
how many of your audience know him, but he's the
guy that wrote the book More Guns, Less Crime, and
in his study he came up with a statistic that
if you use a gun to stop a crime, ninety
(31:21):
five percent of the time, you don't need to pull
the trigger. Why because most of these criminals are cowards.
If they see that you're prepared to fight back in
whatever way, they're going to turn and they're going to find,
you know, an easier market, easier victim. So when you're
carrying the burner, which as you know, looks very very
(31:41):
much like a real firearm, we see this even.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Well, no, it does look like a firearm.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
If you get the color I get, which is black,
which looks like a firearm. Linda has pink, orange, and yellow,
it looks like a toy.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Well, you know, there are some people that want it
to look like a firearm, and there's some people that
wanted to look less lethal. But if you pull out
this launcher and you pointed at somebody, the vast majority
of people are going to turn on their appeal and
turn away. And you know, there's something interesting with what's
going on in DC. I mean, you pointed out a
very very important statistic. This is the murder capital of
(32:20):
the world. As soon as the president put troops on
every corner, federalize the police, there's been no murders. Why
Because people see that there's cops out there and they're afraid.
If you're prepared to stand up, if you're prepared to
defend yourself, you couldn't get people to back off. And
I think that you know, for most people, you are
(32:43):
your first you are your own first responder. I mean,
what is it normally the police seven minutes to get
to you.
Speaker 6 (32:49):
That's it the quickest response team. Whatever is going to
happen will have happened the quickest response team
Now back to the best of Sean Hannity.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Well, we have come in, you.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Will be and if you want a little come along.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
And it is a big day.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
I think either way it's a big day.
Speaker 5 (00:31):
But if we get this solved, it's a really big
day because we're going to save a lot of lives.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Do you then decide, Okay, we're gonna use mustard gas
on civilians. What Trump ordered Abba to do in Texas
is mustard gas on democracy.
Speaker 6 (00:44):
And the perception of this of the Biden presidency is
just a weak and ineffective presidency.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
But the fact of the matter is his legacy is
Donald Trump came back.
Speaker 7 (00:53):
Freedom is back in the style.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Welcome to the coming Conscious News Sean Hennity Show. I'm
the scenes, information on freaking news and more bold inspired
(01:17):
solutions for America. Coming up next, our final News Roundup
and Information Overload Hour.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
News round Up and Information Overload Hour. Here's our toll
free telephone number if you want to be a part
of the program. Uh We welcome back. Senator Tom Cotton.
He released a statement on the Director of National Intelligence
TULSEI Gabbard's announcement. He said Congress created the office of
Director of National Intelligence to be a lean organization that
(01:48):
use small staffs to coordinate across the intelligence community execute
specific important tasks. And today's announcement, remember the earlier in
the week shows on Hannity, and they took away thirty
seven security clearances number one and number two. They're cutting
back the size and scope of what the organization is
because they've gotten away from their original intent. He said,
(02:11):
it will make the d and I stronger, more effective
for national security. For the President, I look forward to
working with Director Gabbert to implement these reforms and provide
the ODNI with legislative relief necessary to ensure our intelligence
community can focus on its core mission, and that is
stealing secrets from our adversaries. Anyway, Senator Cotton, great to
(02:35):
have you back, Thank you for being with us. A
lot of news that is unfolding as it relates to
the deep State. John Solomon will be with us at
the bottom of the hour, and his report on James
Comy is very breathtaking in terms of they have smoking
gun evidence according to John that in fact, they were
purposeful leaks of classified information to reporters coming from Comy
(02:58):
directly himself. He's going to lay out the case. He's
got all the documents, he put him up on his website.
And then of course we have James Comer today finding
out that with the most informative interview of his probe
so far into this conspiracy that he only met twice,
meaning Ian Sam's who testified today, only met twice with Biden.
But he was saying, oh, it's a conspiracy theory if
(03:19):
you dare talk about his cognitive state. And Mike Howell,
president of the Oversight Project, is pointing out that Biden's
own Justice Department was warning directly that these last minute
of pardons and commutations were not going to be legal,
and he lists four specific reasons why, and nobody paid
attention to them. And on top of that, the FBI
(03:42):
director Cash Bettel said there was no constitutional basis, no
lawful predicate for Biden's Justice Department and FBI to carry
out the rate at mar A Lago.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
A lot going on.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Everything that we have been reporting on seems to be,
you know, more and more evidence is coming out every
day that it was all true, all of it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Sean.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
There certainly has a lot going on in this front,
and I think it's important that the Democratic politicians and
the bureaucrats who perpetuated the Russia collusion hoax are being
exposed and will be held accountable. Some of them, it
seems like, from what I've learned, may be held criminally
accountable in certain cases. But we also have the important
(04:22):
reforms that Tulca Gabbard announced this week. The D and
I has grown bloated and bureaucratic from its original intent
of Congress twenty years ago. This is something she and
I discussed in our first conversation after President Trump nominated her.
We both addressed in her confirmation hearings and at my committee.
The Intelligence Committee passed legislation to help implements a couple
(04:44):
months ago that I expect to pass Congress later this year.
I mean, the D and I does not collect intelligence.
They don't have agents running around the world, they don't
have satellites. They're supposed to be a coordinating function. They're
not supposed to be involved in politicizing intelligence, really giving
directives on how agencies use their own internal assets. But
(05:05):
when you have as many people as the D and
I has had in recent years, it does open up
the possibility of mishift making. When people don't have legitimate
intelligence functions and responsibilities on the plate, then they start
cooking up the kind of things that justify their jobs
and their budgets and so forth. So what Director Gabbert
announced this week is an important first step. We've been
working with her closely. Some of the problems with the
(05:27):
D and I. I'll confession, there's the problems of Congress
over the last twenty years, imposing new mandates on them,
creating centers that are superfluous or not related to intelligence
at all. And it's going to take our legislation to
eliminate those offices and those centers so the D and
I can get back to its original focus of ensuring
that intelligence is coordinated across all the agencies while letting
(05:49):
those agencies do their primary job.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
What do you make of Tulse's declassification and what we
learned as it relates to the twenty sixteen election, And
I asked her the other night on TV, I said, so,
is it your assessment that what happened in twenty sixteen
is that deep state actors tried to use phony information
(06:14):
about a Russia connection to Donald Trump that they knew
didn't exist, so that it would help Tillery win the election,
and do you believe that after they lost the election
and senior career intelligence officials ascertained with their intelligence analysis
that there was no Trump Russia collusion and that Obama
and his top lieutenants didn't like that assessment, and they
(06:36):
came up with a new assessment that said just the opposite,
and then they used the dirty Russian disinformation dossier that
was bought and paid for by Hillary to write a
new assessment to make Donald Trump look bad.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
What do you make of all of that? Is that
criminal to you?
Speaker 7 (06:52):
Shot from what Telca Gabbers released as well what John
Rackcliff at the CIA is released, and that comes from
senior career intelligence officials at the CIA, it appears that
this rot came from the Democratic political appointees. In fact,
one of the batches of releases from the DNI about
a month ago showed that you had career officials who
(07:14):
are pushing back against Jim Clapper, against John Brennan, and
against Jim Comey saying they shouldn't proceed. So in some ways,
it's the intelligence officials that were trying to protect the
reputation and integrity of their own work and their agencies
against these democratic political appointees. I think that's what took
(07:37):
a lot of people, or what struck a lot of people,
is that it really started at the top. And it
seems that Sean had frankly gone all the way up
to the very top with Barack Obama in the transition
period of twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen, and it's proven
out by FBI investigation and with the Department of Justice prosecutors,
and any of these people were involved in violating the law,
(07:58):
then certainly if the statute of limitations has not run,
then they would face criminal liability as they should for
engaging in criminal misconduct.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
Well, I mean, when you think of all of that,
and then you factor in if in fact, we have
deep state powerful actors that are using the intelligence community
and what should be the greatest law enforcement agency in
the entire world, the FBI, and they're putting cinder blocks
on the scales of elections. I would argue they did
(08:27):
the same thing in twenty twenty because the FBI knew
that Rudy Giuliani's attorney, Bob Costello, had a copy of
Hunter Biden's laptop. They knew that story would break. They
verified the authenticity of the laptop in March of twenty twenty.
They went about the process in the summer of twenty
twenty of meeting with big tech companies every single week,
(08:50):
warning them they may be victims of a disinformation campaign.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
It may be about Hunter, it may be about Joe Biden.
Speaker 6 (08:56):
And then sure enough the story breaks and Mark zucker
Berg of Meta, then Facebook, and Jack Dorsey of then Twitter,
you know, call and say, is this what you were
warning us about? And they would not tell them what
they knew to be true, that it was authentic, that
it was real, that they had verified such is that
putting center blocks on the scale of an election.
Speaker 7 (09:19):
It certainly sounds like it, Sean, And it is really
important that we get to the bottom of all this,
that all appropriate material is declassified and released, because it's
not enough just to have people like Pambondi and Cash
Betel in charge now and be confident that this is
not going to happen again, at least for the next
three and a half years. It really is necessary to
(09:39):
expose what happened and hold those people to account, even
if let's say a statute limitations has exposed, hold them
publicly to account. So it never happens again. So no
unelected bureaucrat or no democratic appointee in the future thinks
that they can use law enforcement or intelligence agencies to
influence themstic politics here in America.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
It's pretty unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
And you know now that we're learning from cash Bettel
that the FBI rate on mar Lago literally he determined
that it was illegal, and he said, now's the time
for accountability. He said there was no constitutional basis, no
lawful predicate for it. And then, of course, on one
of the top stories of the day, the President now
(10:24):
celebrating his victory over the you know, over Letitia James
in this ridiculous settlement of five hundred and fifteen million
dollars as it you know, relates to a mortgage case
which is unprecedented, and a judge that you know stood
by evaluation of mar Lago of eighteen million dollars when
(10:44):
it's when it's a billion to a billion and a
half dollars, and they got away with all of that,
and all of the other law fair the novel legal
theory of Alvin Bragg, the rate of mar a Lago,
all of these things combined, I mean to me that's
more election interference. That's more that their job then was
to bloody up Donald Trump, to make him, you know,
(11:05):
to make render him not a viable candidate for president.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
Of my view, se sean to borrow a phrase from
our Democratic friends, it sounds to me like a threat
to democracy. And it's so funny that they always levy
that charge against President Trump and against us, when they're
the ones who, again, over the last ten years, have
rapeatedly used law enforcements and litigation to try to tar
(11:31):
Donald Trump, to try to convict him and imprison him
for the rest of his life, or in the case
that was just overturned today, to find him a half
billion dollars for what seawan taking out loans that he repaid.
I remember when that judgment first came down last year.
I was talking to a farmer in Arkansas and he's like,
what are they even talking about up there? You take
out a loan, you repay it all. Who's the victim?
(11:52):
I bet the banks are happy, and they weren't happy,
of course.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Well that was the case.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
I mean it was in the case of the Nonda
disclosure agreement, it was a legal non disclosure agreement. It
was put together by a lawyer. It was labeled the
legal expense. The statute of limitations had run out. It
was a misdemeanor to begin with in the state of
New York, even though the statute of limitations had run out.
And then to come up with this novel legal theory
(12:17):
and then send the third highest ranking DOJ official from
the Biden Justice Department to help out. Alvin Bragg tells
me they wanted that conviction as badly again to bloody
up Trump and render him unelectable.
Speaker 7 (12:30):
Yeah. Now, fortunately sean at backfired on them. But again
it's just an example of how they need to be
exposed so this never happens again. At least say, you know,
they had a legal theory that that gussied up what
was a misdemeanor into a filmy. They never even adequately
explained the legal theory. The liberal judge that presided over
this case and allowed the conviction to go forward or
allowed the case to go to a jury at all,
(12:51):
never explained the legal theory period. They would were willing
to break any role, any procedure, any custom, all an
effort to get Trump, to bankrupt him, to convict him,
to imprison him. Thank goodness, the American people saw through
it all and not allowed to influence their choice in
the election last year.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
All right, quick break, We'll come back more with Senator
Tom Cotton, Great State of Arkansas as we continue with him,
and then John Solomon is breaking news regarding James Comy
and the leaking of intelligence and information classified information. He
feels he has smoking gun evidence. He'll share that with
us at the bottom of the hour. Well, full coverage
(13:30):
of all of this on Hannity tonight on the Fox
News Channel. Quick Break, right back, we'll continue.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Fall a mainstream media is asleep at the wheel. Hannity
watches on the job, bringing you the news no one
else can.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Peter Sean Kennedy, I would.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Continue now with Senator Tom Cotton, Great State of Arkansas's
with us. You know, a lot of people listening to
this show. We'll think back and they'll remember investigations that
we've had, you know, Hillary Clinton's dirty bought and paid
for dossier. James call me protecting Hillary with you know,
no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute. But then, of course a
double standard occurred when mar A Lago got raided and
(14:24):
she did not have the protections that Donald Trump did
with the with the Presidential Authorization Act, where he had
access to these papers, she never had the ability to
take them with her. The same with Joe Biden. Again,
a double standard, a dual justice system. And I just wonder,
you know, and I know my audience is wondering, because
(14:47):
everybody I talked to says, do you think something's going
to happen this time? Are people really going to be
held accountable for what they've done here?
Speaker 7 (14:53):
Shawn, I am because I have confidence in Cash Betail,
in Pam Bondy to follow the law and to not
break the rules the Democrats did while being aggressive within
the law. And SHAWNA. I predict that if charges are
brought against any of these thirty Democratic players, and they
happen to happen to involve the charges that are so
(15:13):
often been brought against Republicans over the past several decades,
lying to Congress, lying to federal investigators, substruction of justice,
You're going to hear wailing and crying from Democrats and
from liberals in the media about how this happens all
the time, and these are not serious actions, and they're
engaged in legal warfare when it's aok against Donald Trump,
(15:34):
or for that matter, against Ronald Reagan's appointees, or against
George W. Bush's appointees. It was all fine and dandy
back then, and it was a matter of high principle.
But when it's going when the shoes on the other foot,
and Democrats are being held accountable for things like lying
to federal investigators or obstruction of justice or conspiracy against
civil rights, then all of a sudden, those charges are
(15:55):
not going to be serious at all. In the case
where everyone does it and Donald Trump's doj under, Pam
Bondi and cashtail Well is engaging in that ragious misconduct conduct.
Just mark mark my word, Sean when you hear that.
But I'm confident that Pam and Cash, if there are legal,
legal case to be made and it's colorable under the
law and under precedent, will move forward to hold these
people accountable.
Speaker 6 (16:15):
It is amazing that these you know, all this information
that they didn't get rid of it. These burn bags
they left them there, This this information, this paper trail,
they left it there. They're supposed to be so clever
and so smart, you would think they would have covered
their own tracks. But the discoveries that they're making every day,
you know, Frankly take my breath away. And as somebody
(16:37):
who reported on all of these issues, I spent you know,
four years of my life reporting on Russia, Russia, Russia,
and it even extends beyond that. It is it is
kind of breathtaking. But Senator Tom Cotton, we always appreciate
you being with us. Thank you, sir. Eight hundred ninety
four one, Shawn. If you want to be a part
of the program.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Mode and Inspired Solutions for America, This is the Sean
Hannity Show.
Speaker 6 (17:06):
Right twenty five till the top of the hour, eight
hundred and nine four one, Sean, if you want to
be a part of the program. You know, we talk
a lot about law and order and safety and security.
We've talked a lot about you know, thanks to Biden,
Harris may Orcus and all these Democrats and a complicit
media lying now we have known terrorists and murderers and
rapists and cartel members and gang members in the country,
(17:29):
on top of Americans that are murderers and rapists and
drug dealers and violent criminals and gang members, et cetera.
I mean, I wish that evil didn't exist. Evil does exist.
Deliver us. You know, Leada's not into temptation, but deliver
us from Evil. Actually wrote a whole book about it
called Deliverers from Evil. And there are people that would
(17:51):
you know, wouldn't think twice about killing you and killing
your family and killing you and killing your employees. And
so the President, to his credit, is out there, went
on patrol yesterday and is feeding the agents, the National
Guard troops that have been out there on patrol. And
lo and behold, we've had a successful week in the
(18:13):
nation's capital. Now before President Trump got involved, Washington, d C.
Is the number one capital city in terms of homicides
forty one per one hundred thousand people. The next highest
homicide rate is sixteen. I mean, that's how bad it's
gotten in Washington, d C. And on top of that,
what did we learn. We learned that officers are now
(18:36):
speaking out, whistleblowers are speaking out, the police union is
speaking out, and they're saying, yeah, those numbers are inaccurate
because they have been purposely cooking the books and lying
to the country and lining to the people in DC. Washington,
d C averaged three point six murders a week in
twenty twenty four. Compared to zero murders dens. Donald Trump
(18:58):
deployed the National Guard. The message has gone out. Pam
Bondi is updating the arrest statistics. They've got over six
hundred and fifty six arrests at this point, including by
the way, eighty six illegal guns. They're making incredible progress.
Here's the President. He was out on patrol yesterday. He
was handing out pizza and burgers and thanking people, the
(19:21):
guards and law enforcement for doing the great job they're
doing to keep the people in DC safe and secure.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
We've had some incredible results and results have come out
and it's like a different place.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
It's like a different city. It's the capital. It's going
to be the best in the world.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
We're going to do what you're doing with law enforcement,
and very.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Importantly also, we're going to physically do it.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
We're going back to Congress for some money, and we're
gonna redo a lot of the pavement, a lot of
the medians, a lot of the Graffiti's all coming off
real fast. It's going to come down real fast, and
we're going to be not so much building, it's cleaning
and fixing and redoing and putting brand new surfaces.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
Down on your roads and streets, and when people come
in from the airport all the way to the Capitol,
of the White House or any place else they going,
they're going to say, woll this place is spotless.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You do the job and.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Safety, and I'll get this place fixed up physically, and
we're going to be so proud of it at the
end of six months. But let's say at the end
of a year, this place will be maxed out in
terms of beauty.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
I talk all the time on this program that I
have a personal safety security strategy for every situation that
I know that I'm going to find myself in when
I go out at my home, when I'm at work,
you have to. I've had too many threats over the
course of my career, and I won't talk about them often,
but I've had plenty of them. And you know, it
(20:45):
was especially tough when you have young kids and you're
getting real threats, including fatwah on my head. That was
not a pleasant time in my life. But I am
urging everybody you must have a personal safety security plan
you and your family. There are bad evil people in
this world. I wish they didn't exist. And I said
(21:06):
this when I wrote, Deliver us from evil is that
it's very hard for good people to wrap their minds
around the concept that evil does exist and evil doesn't
think twice. You know, an evil human being? How evil
do you have to be to harm a child, to
rape a child? Those pedophiles exist, That is evil, The
(21:27):
lowest scum of the earth, or people that wouldn't blink
and take your life or take the life of your
spouse or your children. They don't care. So you know,
we have you know, there is the lethal option, and
I carry a pistol. I've been a believer in the
Second Amendment my entire life. I usually carry the six
(21:47):
hour P. Three sixty five in case your interest that
I also have my burner cl which is a non
lethal option. And I've been urging all of you their
advertisers on this program, but that's not why I'm having
them on today.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
This is not an infomercial.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
This is about how to protect yourself, your family if
that God forbid moment ever comes. And you see this
in small towns and big cities all across the country,
this idiocy of defund dismantled no bail laws. Look at this,
you know, look at the recent criminal that got out
and killed somebody had been in jail you know, for
(22:22):
less than twenty four hours before, and four separate arrests.
How many more people are going to have to die?
And what are you going to do if the God
forbid moment comes in your life? I care too much
about all of you in this audience. The life I live,
which is my dream that has come true, is only
because of all of you. And if I don't share
with you, you know my passionate belief that everybody needs
(22:46):
a security and safety strategy, regardless of who you are,
where you live, what your age is, what your sex is,
it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you're trained in
situational self defense as I am, because you may not
have that opportunity. I just urge everyone. I think one way.
And there are people that are afraid of firearm, for example,
(23:08):
but I don't think you'll be afraid of the non
lethal option. It's legal in all fifty states. You don't
need a permit, you don't need a background check. It
fires very powerful projectiles and that's tear gas, pepper spray,
kinetic rounds, and you can incapacitate any perpetrator. You can
hit a target forty to fifty sixty feet away with
(23:29):
incredible accuracy. I know because I practiced with my burner,
and I can shoot that more than I can my
pistol because of the hearing loss I've had with all
these years that have been on radio. Anyway, we have
Josh Chirard is with us. He is director of law
enforcement for Burner, and Brian Gann, CEO of Berner and Anyway,
(23:49):
they both join us today. You know now that the
nation's kind of dialed in and focusing their attention on
safety and security.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I don't. I can't tell you how many.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
Advertisers and lender can back me up on this.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
People.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
I'll give you an example. Gambling companies. They want betting
betting sites. They have offered US millions and millions and
millions of dollars to be advertisers on the program. I
did it one early point when they first started, but
I had no idea have become such a nationwide epidemic
in terms of gambling addiction, and I don't really want
to be a part of it. The only advertisers I
(24:26):
take and that I will give my endorsement to are
products that I truly believe in and your product, Brian.
When we first met, I knew right away that this
had the potential to really become big. Now you've become
bigger than ever. Five hundred plus government agencies support this technology.
They're using your products, police departments, private security firms. You know,
(24:49):
I would just surge to everybody, please look at their videos,
educate yourself with them, decide for yourself if this technology
is good for you anyway.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Good to have you back, and same with you, Josh
gat to have you back.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Well, it's great to be on the show with you. Sean,
thank you very much. You know, I remember the first
time I came down to your house and we're out
in the backyard and we're shooting, and I said, look,
you know, I've been a gun owner my whole life,
but you know, I don't know how quick i'd be
to pull the trigger, and you know, and then I
worry if I hesitate, is that a fatal hesitation for me?
(25:21):
And I said, what do you think do I represent
five percent or ten percent of gun owners? And I'll
never forget this, Sean, he said to me. He says, Brian,
I'm a gun owner, two been a gun owner my
whole life, he said. He said, but ninety percent of
gun owners live in mortal fear of having to pull
the trigger and take a life because the consequences of
doing that, particularly in the society we live in today,
(25:43):
are overwhelming, I mean legally financially and with the BURNO,
we give people the opportunity to stop at assailant without
the risk of taking a life or causing permanent injury.
And you know, it's been very important to me, and
I know it's been very important to you.
Speaker 6 (26:00):
Break more with Josherard and Brian Ganz on the other
side from Berner BYRNA dot com. By the way, they're
not just advertisers, they're friends, and they want to keep
you and your family safe and secure. Then your call's
coming up.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Look.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Ever since I was able to start saving money, which
by the way, was not until my late twenties in
my life, I mean, I was living paycheck to paycheck
for a lot of years there. But I guess somebody
I wish i'd remembered who told me I should invest
a part of my savings in gold and silver. And
I've done that ever since, and now I'm so glad
(26:34):
that I did. It's been of great value also gives
me peace of mind. And if you want to help,
you know, balance and safeguard your money. Gold precious metals
has been a hedge against inflation and other economic you know,
fluctuations over the many, many years and decades. But I
have a partner now and it's a precious metals company,
(26:56):
and I'm a customer like many of you are. It's
called Gold Call Gold Co g Ldco. And you know
this is a great company. You know, in the last
couple of years, gold has been hitting record high after
record high after record high. Now silver is hitting record
high after record high eight five five eight one five

Hey, if you're with Verizon AT and T T Mobile,
you are overpaying for wireless period end of sentence. You're
paying for thousands of retail stores that you're never going
to go to. You're paying for unnecessary perks that you'll
never use. But guess what my cell phone provider, Pure Talk.
They use the same five G network, the same cell towers.
The only difference they don't charge you for any of
(27:44):
the garbage. Instead, Puretalk will give you unlimited talk, unlimited text,
plenty of data, twenty five bucks a month. That's real
money in your pocket for the exact same service. And
guess what you can keep your phone and your phone number,
which is simple, fast, easy dial pound two fifty. Say
the keywords save now. You'll save an additional fifty percent
(28:06):
off your first month and you can be switched over
in mere minutes. Pound two fifty keywords save now, make
the switch to my cell phone provider, a veteran O company,
pure Talk Wireless by Americans or Americans. I we continue
(28:28):
now with Josh Sharrada's with us and Brian gans with us.
They are with Berner BYRNA dot Comya. They're an advertiser,
but they're also friends, and they also have something that
can keep you and your family safe and secure. When
I first saw the technology and I was training when
I first met you, and my sense Glenn Rubin was
(28:49):
there and we were both flown away by the technology.
Immediately I liked it. I couldn't believe it. And by
the way, when you people hear how are you shooting
in your backyard? Okay, I had many many acres of
land and it was very wooded and it was not
a problem. But I hope people be critical, like they
may think I lived on a fifty by one hundred
lot that I grew up in. But the reality is
(29:11):
this evil is real, and the reality is people have
to defend themselves. And Josh, you know, maybe for people
that are reluctant to go with a firearm and lethal force,
at the very least, I think you need a burner
in your household. I have numerous burners that are strategically
located all throughout my house. To be very honest, I'm
not giving away my personal security strategy. I'm telling you
(29:33):
stay away from my house. It's not going to end
well for you.
Speaker 7 (29:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Absolutely.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
You know I've been a cop for over twenty years
and carried a gun for that long as well. But
I also am a statskuy. I'm data driven and I
want to know. Not only do I want to prepare
for the worst case scenario, I want to be able
to be prepared for what's most likely to happen. And
when we look at stats, historically, the chance of you
having to use deadly force in the course of your
life is astronomically low. We're talking in twenty three, four
(30:01):
hundred and seven, there were four hundred and seventy one
justifiable homicides in the United States. So four hundred and
seventy one people had to utilize a gun to defend
themselves and kill another individual. That's one in seven hundred
thousand chants of you having to do that. Now, when
we look at the victimization of just violent crime in
general of a lesser degree, your chances of being a
victim of some sort of violent crime are about one
(30:23):
in two hundred and sixty one in two hundred and sixty,
So your chance of having to use some sort of
self defense that's less than lethal self defense is so
much greater.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Why wouldn't you have some sort of plan.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
Why wouldn't you have some sort of tool, some sort
of device to be able to make sure that you
can defend yourself among so many different circumstances, Because you
are not going to be taking someone's life. The chance
of you having to pull the trigger and and kill
someone in someone's life just is so so very low.
This is really just so applicable to so many situations
(30:59):
and so many different But.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
You know, Sean, it's interesting. I was on a podcast
the other day with John Locke, and I don't know
how many of your audience know him, but he's the
guy that wrote the book More Guns, Less Crime, and
in his study he came up with a statistic that
if you use a gun to stop a crime, ninety
(31:21):
five percent of the time, you don't need to pull
the trigger. Why because most of these criminals are cowards.
If they see that you're prepared to fight back in
whatever way, they're going to turn and they're going to find,
you know, an easier market, easier victim. So when you're
carrying the burner, which as you know, looks very very
(31:41):
much like a real firearm, we see this even.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Well, no, it does look like a firearm.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
If you get the color I get, which is black,
which looks like a firearm. Linda has pink, orange, and yellow,
it looks like a toy.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Well, you know, there are some people that want it
to look like a firearm, and there's some people that
wanted to look less lethal. But if you pull out
this launcher and you pointed at somebody, the vast majority
of people are going to turn on their appeal and
turn away. And you know, there's something interesting with what's
going on in DC. I mean, you pointed out a
very very important statistic. This is the murder capital of
(32:20):
the world. As soon as the president put troops on
every corner, federalize the police, there's been no murders. Why
Because people see that there's cops out there and they're afraid.
If you're prepared to stand up, if you're prepared to
defend yourself, you couldn't get people to back off. And
I think that you know, for most people, you are
(32:43):
your first you are your own first responder. I mean,
what is it normally the police seven minutes to get
to you.
Speaker 6 (32:49):
That's it the quickest response team. Whatever is going to
happen will have happened the quickest response team
