Sean Davis, CEO & Co-Founder of The Federalist and Kaylee McGhee White, Steamboat Institute Blankley Fellow & Restoring America Editor of the Washington Examiner, talk about Joe’s constant lying just this week; he lied about teaching at the University of Pennsylvania and being at 9-11 the day after the collapse, this on the heels of his claims he has no time to get to East Palestine, while comparing Hawaii’s catastrophic fires to his kitchen fire. And last but not least we will cover the impeachment inquiry.
President Biden, who has never taught a single semester-long course at the University of Pennsylvania, mused on Thursday about when he used to “teach political theory” at the Ivy League school.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, news round up information overlad hour. Let me
(00:02):
give her a toll free number. We'd love to hear
from you. It's eight hundred and ninety four to one, Sean,
if you want to be a part of the program.
I mean, Joe Biden just continues to get caught in
these lies. I mean it's like one after another after
another after another. I mean this week alone. He claimed
that he taught political theory, for example, at the University
(00:24):
of Pennsylvania. He never taught a single class.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Listen, our democracy is under attack and we got a
fight for it. I taught at the University of Pennsylvania
for four years, and I used to teach political theory,
and folks always here. Every generation has to fight for democracy.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
And then you know, earlier in the week, it was
on a call with rabbi said I was you might say,
raised in the synagogues of my state. Know this is
like you said. He claimed his neighborhood was mostly people
from Puerto Rico. No, that wasn't true either, But he's
telling the rabbis that I was you might say, I
was raised in the synagogues in my state. You think
(01:05):
I'm kidding. I'm not always why does you always say
you think I'm kidding, I'm not.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Wasn't you might say?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Raised in the synagogues of my state are show him
was a whole of killoss friends for me.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
He just makes this Adam Schiff up. It's unreal. Here's
some of his classics.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
I got involved in politics indirectly by getting involved in
the civil rights movement as a kid. I got started
out of an HBCU Delaware State. Now, I don't want
to hear anything negative about Delaware State.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Here.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I used to drive a tractor trailer.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Ah awesome, and so I'm a little bit about driving
big trucks. By the way, when I left the Vice presidency,
had a chance to do a number of things. But
I became a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. And
by the way, I was doing Villanova's commencement and one
of my nuns from school was getting here doctor degree
and presented a tour and she said it was pretty
good job, but just said you instead of me.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
At the time, Browns are in New York, and I
remember standing there the next day and looking at the building. Now,
I felt like I was looking through the.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Gates of hell. Unbelievable just never stops anyway. Joining us now,
Sean Davis. He is the CEO co founder of the Federalist.
Kaylee McGhee white is with us. She is editor of
the Washington Examiner. Welcome both of you to the program.
Welcome back, Sean. How are you.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
I'm well.
Speaker 6 (02:34):
Thank you for having me, sir, Kaylie.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Good to hear you, Kayleie. Why does this man constantly lie?
And why is it only now people catch it up
with conservatives? We've been pointing this habit of his to
exaggerate constantly. It's not even exaggerating, just flat out lies.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
Yeah, and his entire career has been marked by these lives.
He's lied about participating in a civil rights march, about
being arrested trying to see Nelson Mandela, about how his
son Bo died, About what his economic policies are really
doing to the working class. Oh, and let's not forget
the lie that he was never involved in his sons
Hunter's business feelings. And he does this, Sean, because it's
(03:11):
the he has no choice. It's the only way he
can maintain this facade that he has created, this idea
that he's relatable Uncle Joe.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
He has no choice.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
But to live see American people over and over and
over again, because otherwise the facade starts to break down.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
It really does, Sean. What's your take on it? And
you know, I'm making the case now that I see
cracks in the liberal media, the mob. They're now reporting
on this. They're now reporting even on Joe's cognitive state.
You know, I think we've hit a tipping point when
you have David Ignatius and Maureen Dowd and Van Jones
(03:49):
and James Carvill and David Axelrod, you know, now being
very critical of Joe Biden. Is this now the big
push to get him off the ticket?
Speaker 5 (03:57):
It's a great question. I'm glad you brought up David Ignatius,
because I'm not sure David Ignashe's get out of bed
in the morning without getting a directive from the CIA
or in the Intelligence services to do that on their behalf.
But it's interesting looking at Joe Biden. It's easy, given
his frail state, to assume that these lies and exaggerations
are a function of dementia or age. But as Kayley said,
(04:19):
he's been a liar his entire political career. You go
back thirty forty years He lied about how he graduated
in law school. He wasn't at the top. He's in
the bottom ten percent. He lied about having a full
scholarship in law school. He actually failed a class in
law school for plagiarizing. He plagiarized speeches. As a presidential
candidate in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Seven, Neil kennegat the Labor Party in Britain. Yeah. That
ended that presidential run.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
Yeah, And it's his entire career is marked by lies.
And I don't know if it's a need to be
liked by people or a deep in security that he
needs them to believe he's smarter than he is. But
this is a personal, a personality behavioral failing of him,
function of age and in obviously the age is a
serious issue. But the man's character hasn't changed. He is
(05:07):
exactly today who he's been in politics for fifty years.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Let me stay on this issue again. I'll list Maureen
Dowd and David Ignacious and Van Jones and David Axelrod
and James Carvel. When you start losing them, Kaylee, is
that the canary and the coal mine and not really
the biggest vote of confidence from even Nancy Pelosi this week.
(05:33):
Certainly he's not a vote of confidence her comments on
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Absolutely, And they're signaling that the establishment is getting ready
to toss both Biden and Kamala Harris. And it's interesting
the David Ignacious column that recently came out. Notice the
timing of when that came out. It came out right
after a CNN pool found Biden losing to just about
every Republican primary candidate. That's not a coincidence. This is intention.
(06:00):
The only reason that they are turning on Biden is
because they're worried that he's going to lose. If he
was way up in the polls, this would not be
an issue. They would be circling the wagons, they would
be rallying around him. But because he's weak and they
sense his weakness now that tides are starting to turn.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
But didn't we see a new level of cognitive decline
in Vietnam Sean Davis. I mean, I've been pointing this
out since he was a candidate, and now to listen
to Democrats, I mean, even Joe Scarborough. He lost Joe
Scarborough on the issue of his cognitive state. Another canary
in the coal mine.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
I think so, but I think it's as much about
fear of Trump's strength as it is Biden's weakness. Biden
is obviously weak, but if you look at what the
left has done Trump, they impeached him twice, They've been
died in it him. I don't know how many times.
They're trying to have him thrown off the ballot. They're
trying to get him convicted in the middle of a
campaign next year, and the man, if you believe the polls,
(06:57):
is still tied or even in simples, besting Joe Biden.
The Democrat establishment has to be absolutely terrified. They they
fired every arrow in their quiver at Trump and it
still looks like he's stronger than Biden, and I think
that may actually terrify them more than Biden's particular weakness.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Now this raises another issue here, because the person you
would most naturally look toward would be the vice president.
That would be Kamala Harris. And it was interesting to
me to watch that some but clearly somebody from her
camp or supportive of her, leaked this piece about how
well if Gavin Newsom gets in, it's certainly not going
(07:38):
to be received well by minorities and women. In the party.
Over at that hard hitting news show, The View, Kaylee
Sunny Houston was warning that Biden is going to lose
the black vote if he dumps Kamala Harris. I think
Kamala's her own worst enemy. Her approval ratings are lower
than his. So then the question because who replaces them?
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Right?
Speaker 7 (08:01):
And notice that after those comments came out, Gavin Newsom
announced that he has no intention of running in twenty
twenty four. So he's clearly getting the message here that
identity politics runs the Democratic Party and he better not
get in the way of that. This is part of
the problem when you've tied your entire ideology to this belief,
(08:21):
this obsession with race. Who wants to be the white
California male governor who takes the presidency from the first
black female vice president. No one wants to be that
person because he would get killoried by the far left.
So this is a top dilemma for other hopeful Democrats
to be in right now, where they recognize that Kamala
(08:43):
is uniquely weak as a vice president, they recognize Biden's weaknesses,
and yet who was going to step up to challenge them?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, I think that's I mean okay. Gavin Newsom, Now,
when I interviewed him, and I don't know if either
one of you saw the interview, but when I interviewed him,
I pressed him hard about how many people on a
daily basis are piging his phone saying that he needs
to get into this race. He's asked the same questions
by Chuck Todd and then actually gave a strong endorsement
(09:11):
that if Joe didn't run, that it would be Kamala Harrison.
He wouldn't get involved at all. So do you believe
that that's accurate? Sean Davis, You're you know this is
not our first rodeo. I think anything can happen.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
I generally is a rule in politics discount any politician
who says they're not going to run for president, because
they all do it up until the moment they choose
to run for president. You almost have to feel sorry
for Kamala. She's a horrifically bad politician. She's very uniquely unlikable.
She was so unlikable in her own party that she
(09:45):
had to drop out of that primary in twenty twenty
before they even had a single vote cast in any
primary or caucus. So obviously Dems are panicking. It's the
thought of her having to be at the top of
the ticket, her identity, politics, bona fides not withstanding. But
the Democrat problem has that Democrat Party has a real
problem with depth right now. They don't have a deep bench.
(10:06):
They don't have a lot of people sitting out there
waiting to go and I think one reason is their
policies have been so destructive and so bad for the country.
I'm not sure anyone wants to follow behind Joe Biden
and have to take credit or where his record as
an albatross around their own next.
Speaker 8 (10:21):
What are your thoughts, Kelly, I think that as the
deadlines loom, you're going to start to see more Democratic
officials dipping their toes in the water to see what
the establishment's reaction might be.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
I'm from Michigan. I'm watching pretty closely what Gretchen Whitmer
is going to do. Her name is one that I've
heard floated around several times about a potential even VP
pick if Biden decides to dump Kamala. Wouldn't be surprised
if she tried her hand at a sort of national run.
I think you're going to start to see more of
that over the next coming weeks, over the next few months,
(10:54):
especially as the pools keep coming back with really poor
ratings for both Biden and Kamala, that's.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Going to be very interesting. Let me ask you both,
who do you think would be the most the strongest
candidate for them? I mean, look, Gavin is right out
of Central Casting, the governor of California. However, I mean
his policies are so over the top, radical left wing.
You know, would Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, would they support those policies,
(11:21):
Sean Davis.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
Yeah, when I look at their bench, I think the
person most likely you might keep Biden go after if
he wants the dumb Kamala would be Eric Adam, the
mayor of New York City. That might actually explain his
little flip flop on immigration in the past week. He's
becoming a little more hawkish. The media like him, and
he of course checks the identity politics boxes that the
(11:44):
Democrat Party establishment demands.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Well, I mean yours. I was more asking the question
about Joe. If Joe doesn't, if Joe says, you know,
after talking to my wife, my wife Jill, and my
family and consulting with the people closest to me. I
think I've come to the conclusion that it would be
the right time for somebody else to take over blah
blah blah, and I will not be a candidate for
(12:08):
the twenty twenty four presidential race. Who then gets in
and who would win and who would be the most formidable?
Speaker 5 (12:15):
I think it would be Eric Eric Adams at this point,
I think it would be someone who's not been in
national politics. Because the national political situation is so bad,
it's going to have to be someone with a fairly
thin record that the right can't go after. So you're
going to be looking at someone who's been a mayor
or governor for not particularly long, who's good on camera
and can say the right lines.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Who do you think it would be? If you had
to pick somebody Kayley again.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
I'm going to say Gretchen Whitmer. She could get the
suburban woman vote pretty easily. She represents a midwestern twing state.
She's kind of the ideal candidate that they're looking for. However,
I will say I don't think it matters quite that
much who the candidate is, because ultimately they're not going
to be the ones running the administration. We know that's
the case with Joe Biden right now, he is not
(13:01):
the one in charge. Whoever they put in that White House,
we're going to get the exact same result either way.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
All right, quick, Frank. We'll come back more with Sean
Davis and Kaylee McGee white on the other side. And
then your calls. Eight hundred ninety four to one, Shawn
is our number. All right, we continue. We'll get to
your calls in the next half hour. Eight hundred ninety
four one Shawn on this Friday, But we continue with
Sean Davis and Kaylee McGee white. All Right. I'm not
thinking Donald Trump gets a fair trial in New York
(13:27):
DC or Fulton County, Georgia. Let's start there. If he
has a conviction in an election year and doesn't get
a chance that appeal in an election year, how does
that play out with independent voter Sean Davis.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
I think that's the major question. It's unprecedented. It's almost
impossible to predict. I think a lot of people have
baked in that these are completely political, that they're based
entirely on the Democrat Party trying to take out their
top opponent. But it's hard to gauge exactly how people
are going to react at the moment he gets convicted.
(14:02):
And I assume he will be convicted and by DC jury.
They would convict a ham Sandwich if it had an
R next to its name. So I could see a
situation where, you know, maybe the bottom pulls out for him,
or it could actually galvanize support for him when it
demonstrates how focused the machine is on taking him out,
not because of who he is, but because of what
the all.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Mike, galvanize the base. I'm asking, how does it impact
independent voters, the ones that usually decide elections?
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Right, Well, I mean, I can make the argument either way.
The argument that it could help him is you never
want to be running is the incumbent when things are bad.
You'd much rather be the outsider, the person coming in
to shake things up. What better position to be and
than the regime that's ruined everything trying to take you out?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
All right, and Kelly, you agree with that, listen.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I think it hurts him among independent voters, and I
think that's why Democrats are doing this in the first place.
I think that they're banking on the idea that swing voters,
suburban women, independents, won't look into the legitimacy of the
individual charges so much as they will care about the
fact that he is being charged in the first place.
I don't think we understand what the ramifications of these
(15:10):
court appearances are going to be, especially considering that he
has almost a dozen of them over the span of
a year. It's not going to be a good luck.
I think it hurts his campaign, and I think that's
exactly why Democrats are doing this.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Thank you Cayley, Thank you. Sean Davis eight hundred nine
foot one, Shawn on Number.
Speaker 9 (15:59):
Driving liberals crazy three hours a day, every day. The
Sean Hannity Show is back on the air.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Twenty five douts at the top of the hour. Thank
you for being well. US eight hundred and ninety four
one Sean on Number. This Friday, we'll get to your
calls this final half hour. You're tired of watching stock
market swings? Want to say goodbye to shifts in your portfolio?
Speaker 6 (16:24):

That's Phoenix on Hannity dot com. Well this was pretty entertaining, actually,
because New York City residents angry over the Joe Biden
open borders policy and the one hundred thousand plus illegal
(17:25):
immigrants dumped into the neighborhoods all over the state of
New York by the Biden administration, only thirteen percent sent
up by the Governor of Texas Abbot. Although the Mayor
Adams keeps playing the governor for the out of control
illegal immigrant problem in New York, but he once was
saying nowhere open we're wide open and didn't want to
(17:46):
go visit the border to see up close and personal
what Texas was dealing with. Anyway, So now it's you know,
they're estimating twelve percent, sorry, twelve billion dollars. It's going
to cost taxpayers in New York City alone. There's a
lot of frustration because the Biden administration is not helping.
Also frustration about where to put them. And the answer
this week from Joe Biden's administration will send them to
(18:08):
Long Island and upstate New York. I keep him in
New York anyway, So you had protesters. Now there was
a I guess, a joint town hall meeting with AOC
Congresswoman Alexandria Cassio Cortes and Congressman Jerry Nadler and other
Democrats Friday during a midtown press conference about this very
issue and anyway, the New York polls were drowned out
(18:31):
by angry screams as they tried to talk outside the
Roosevelt Hotel Mega shelter early this morning. Send them back.
A lot of people were screaming. Jonathan Ronaldi, Queen's City
council candidate, shouting, closed the border, closed the border, others,
you know, screaming I'm your constituent, a male protester crying out.
At one point, a security guard grabbed Ernaldi forty four
(18:53):
shoved him behind the barricade. Protesters brandishing America first vetted
in legal ill Migrants only signs. They descended at this
East forty fifth Street hotel as lawmakers were addressing the
city's illegal immigrant crisis. AOC are members of the Congressional
Hispanic Caucus had toward the emergency shelter when the chaos erupted.
(19:16):
And anyway, here's AOC from earlier today trying to talk
about what's going on in New York City and gets
shouted over.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
And ultimately, I think that there are three points of
consensus here that are very important in getting a solution
to this issue. The first is that there is consensus
here across geography and states and increased federal resources to
cities and municipalities dealing with this issue.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
The second is to allow for.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Work authorizations so that folks in here can get to
work and start supporting themselves as soon as possible. They
are prevented from getting jobs, they are prevented from employment, and.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
That is part of the strain on our public.
Speaker 10 (20:00):
The faster that books to the work that they're asking
for legally consult.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
And is extension of temporary protected stay there.
Speaker 10 (20:10):
Then it's weather for are the largest.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Population the thing you want. Wow, get a little hostile there.
But you know what, it's so out of control, borders
out of control, the economies out of control, energy prices
are out of control.
Speaker 11 (20:26):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
We now have one rogue nation, hostile geopolitical foe after
another joining forces.
Speaker 11 (20:32):
This.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
This is not pretty. This is what America with a weak,
frail cognitive mess as a president looks like that has
radical views. Anyway, let's go to Carlton Is in Georgia.
You're on the Sean Hannity Show. Happy Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Happy Friday, Sean. It's great to spay with you, sir.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I was wondering. I was wondering why more people are
not questioning Joe Biden's cognitive ability, the considering that he
has control over the nuclear codes.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
I don't think he's Look, you ever go to Walmart
and you have maybe some retired people. I've met some
of the nicest people. They're Walmart greaders. I think they
call them. You ever, you ever go to Walmart and
you walk in the door and they had to tell you,
you know, by the way, where's your sporting department, where's
your whatever department? Whatever you're looking for?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Right?
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you ever meet those people? Because I have, Yeah,
I love Walmart. I mean, you go to Super Walmart.
It's awesome. They have everything you'd ever want, great prices, Walmart, Target, Costco.
I like all those places. I like Costco, especially when
they give free food out and I end up. I
usually end up buying whatever it is that they are
preparing in front of me because I can't control my
(21:47):
appetite as usual. I don't even think he's fit enough
to be a Walmart reader, because I don't think he'd
be able to remember where all the departments are. And
it has nothing to do with his age. I'll give
you an example, Bernie Sanders. I believe he's older than
him and these sharp as attack has to do with,
you know, his cognitive state. This guy had two frontal
lobe surgeries in the eighties. I don't know if that's
(22:08):
impacting all this or I just you know, some people
I've heard of early onset Alzheimer's disease for people. People
in their fifties for crying out loud even younger. Scary.
I mean, these and there's no cure for these diseases.
They're degenerative. And I think we saw in Vietnam it's
gotten worse for this guy.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
Yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I mean my father passed away from Alzheimer's, so I
know what that's like.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I'm sorry to hear that. By the way, it's terrible
to watch that decline, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Oh yes, it took a long time.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
But yeah, it takes a long time. And you know,
then when you get to the point where they don't
recognize you, or you get to the point you know,
they ask a question, you answer it, and two minutes
later they're asking the same question, and then two minutes
after that they'll ask it again. I've seen it all.
I don't like it. I feel bad for them. Yeah, anyway,
I don't think he could be I don't think he's
up to the job of a Walmart greeter. And your
(22:57):
point is he's got the nuclear codes. Pretty scary, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah, Because I think you know, he could just go, oh, well,
let's see what these buttons do.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Well, he wouldn't be able to pull it off. That way,
he might actually have to remember the code, and unless
there was a good reason, I got to believe somebody
around him would stop him anyway, Sir, thank you for
the call. You have a great weekend. Brad is in Ohio.
What's up, Brad? How are you, sir?
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Sean? How you doing?
Speaker 6 (23:25):
You're a great American?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Thank you, my friend, You're a great American. Happy Friday
to you.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
It is a happy Friday. Hey, I wanted to call you.
I'm a first time caller, but I wanted to call
you in regards to the Hunter Biden gun fiasco here,
and my point being is that, if I'm not mistaken,
the gun that he purchased is a thirty eight snubnosed revolver.
And I'm not a gun expert. I'm a gun enthusiast,
(23:52):
but a thirty eight snubnosed revolver is only good for
two things. One is protection and two is to kill somebody.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
So I don't remember if it was a snub nose.
I off the top of my head, I just don't
specifically recall. I should pull up. It was in the
it was in the indictment. I got it here somewhere
in my pile. But it's it's irrelevant. It is a firearm.
He wasn't eligible to get it. He was you know,
look the pictures alone to me, and I tried to
(24:20):
make this out to this crazy leftist caller in the
last hour. You know, the pictures speak volumes.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
You know.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
He's there, he's naked, he's got the gun in his hand,
you know, and he's hanging out in hotel rooms, you know,
smoking crack and hanging out with hookers. Not exactly a
safe environment for a firearm.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
You think, well, and here's the point is that if
I'm Hunter Biden and my dad is the second most
powerful person in the world, because I think his dad
was VP when he had this weapon, why do I
need a firearm? And nobody from the media has bothered
to ask why did Hunter need a gun? Because he's
got the protection of the Secret Service? Why didn't the
(25:00):
Secret Service step in if he needed protection? The only
other thing I can think of is if he planned
on using it on another human being.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I don't know if he had Secret Service protection at
the time. I know he had some because when the
gun was put in the dumpster, thankfully found by a
good samaritan who handed it over to the police. The
issues about the Secret Service potential involvement in that came up.
I hope they didn't do anything to get involved. But
putting that aside, you know, certainly they weren't in the room.
(25:31):
I don't know what they know.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
I don't And again, would have had to have known
that he purchased this firearm and he is arm length
way from world leaders and flying on air PA one.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Well, they also had to know that he was addicted
to drugs. I mean, you can't be around somebody that's
using crack and not know it, at least I don't
think so. Look, I mean it's just a The whole
thing is sad. I mean, I know families, you know,
I've had members, you know, not in my immediate family,
but people that I know, my extended family, that have
(26:06):
had addiction problems. And it sucks. I mean, I've seen
lives wasted and destroyed because of substance abuse. I don't
care if it's alcoholism, drug addiction. It's it's a terrible, terrible,
insidious way to live. You are a slave to whatever
that substance you're addicted to is. It's terrible right.
Speaker 6 (26:27):
But the thing is is when is he going to
rehab and if he has been, there are a number
of times, why isn't he I got great question, but
it does it's irrelevant to actually as relates to the
issue of law because he lied on.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
The gun form and and this you know what, he
was not in a He was not somebody that should
be having a firearm in that condition. If you're using
those those drugs, it is not safe. Period, end of sentence.
Kind of simple.
Speaker 6 (26:52):
Still want to know why he needed the gun in
the first place.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Because he probably wanted it to be cool. I don't know.
Don't buy a gun to be cool. Buy a gun
if you think if you want a firearm, get trained
in the use of it. That's my advice. And you
know what the greatest thing about I will say this
and the NRA never got credit for this, but you
know they're great at it. You know people that are
are marksmen, people that are gun enthusiasts. If you're a
(27:17):
novice and you want to learn how to safely own
a weapon, a firearm, and it's safe use of and
safe storage. Of the most generous people with their time
are people that believe in the second Amendment because they
know it's in everybody's best interest not to have people
that are not trained with firearms. You know, people will
(27:41):
ask me what kind of gun should I get? Which
one do you want to get trained in the safe
use of I had this conversation with Linda when she
was getting her first firearm. Linda, you remember I went
through all this with you, chapter and verse, and to
your credit, you learned safety before you actually purchase your
first weapon.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (27:59):
I've actually done a lot lot of training.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
You know.
Speaker 11 (28:01):
I did some with Uscca he used to be on
the show. I've practiced every day with mantus X. You know,
Berna by r naar new sponsor or off for a
ton of training, exercise and even though it's a non lethal,
less lethal firearm, you know it's you have to practice.
You have to be smart. You know, safety is the
first rule of owning a firearm.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
I'll tell you the one thing mantis X did for me,
because I've been on radio thirty some odd years, you know,
my my hearing loss is you can attest to is
pretty acute. And I just had to stop stop practicing
because I had one incident in which I was firing shotguns,
(28:43):
and I had internal air protection and external air protection.
I really protected my ears and I walked away, and
I had ringing in my ears for like three straight weeks.
And I know other people that have had that. It's
it is the it is. It'll drive you nuts. And
I was so grateful it went away. I didn't fire
my firearm since then. Now, I've been a marksman since
(29:06):
I'm a young kid, a pistol marksman, So I wasn't
worried about the safety and security and use of the
weapon of God forbid, I need it, but I just
didn't want to further injure my ears and have the
ringing remain permanent. What do they call tenanitis or something
like that.
Speaker 11 (29:21):
Yeah, it's tenanitis. And unfortunately, if you don't know these
things because you don't learn about them before you go
and make your first purchase, you know, these are important
things to learn, like when you're purchasing your gun. Okay,
so what are next steps? You know, how do I
take care of it? What kind of safe can I buy?
What kind of you know, biometrics are involved in, like
you know the hand safes, fingerprint safes, like there's all
(29:42):
different things you should be asking, and then you should
be asking about how do I go and get trained?
And what do I do to protect my ears, my eyes,
you know, et cetera. How often should I be practicing?
You know, you don't want the first time you shoot
your gun to be when somebody's in your bedroom saying
hands up. I mean, that's not the moment. You know
what I'm saying. You're not going to become good in
like thirty seconds.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Uh, not at all. And and it's not a toy.
I tell everybody, and even Burner you know it's non lethal.
But you know what, you know it's no joke. If
you're not familiar in the safe use of a firearm,
and in this case it's non lethal, you don't don't
mess with it until you get somebody, find somebody, Just
go to a local range and just you know, ask
(30:22):
is there anybody I'd like to take a lesson? You know,
I just got this. I got this as a gift.
I'm not training the use of it. Is there anybody
here that can give me a lesson? And you be
shocked if you get on the range and you start
asking questions. I've been out ranges and guys are like
you know, Hannah, you want to fire this weapon or
that weapon. I'm like, yeah, teach me about the weapon
(30:43):
before I fire it.
Speaker 11 (30:44):
I will tell you my last self defense class. I
got the person through my pastor, through my.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Church did They're the most generous people. They will give
you all the knowledge they've accumulated. They will take the
time and and by the time you you know, you'll
you'll then be you know, safe gun owner. There's no
reason for gun accidents. Honestly, there really isn't. If you
if you really take the measures seriously, you're not going
to have an accident. And that I can tell you.
(31:12):
All Right, that's gonna wrap things up for today. We
got a special tonight on Hannity. So Mark Levin, the
Great One, is debuting his new book. It's called The
Democrat Party Hates America. By the way, just the title
is gonna make liberals heads explode. Anyway, We're going to
get into the great specificity in detail in this book.
I'll tell you one thing it is. It is very comprehensive,
(31:36):
exhaustibly researched, and you're going to learn things you did
not know about this Democratic Party. Anyway. That's tonight Hannity,
say your DVR nine Eastern Fox News, see you tonight.
Back here on Monday. Have a great weekend.
All right, news round up information overlad hour. Let me
(00:02):
give her a toll free number. We'd love to hear
from you. It's eight hundred and ninety four to one, Sean,
if you want to be a part of the program.
I mean, Joe Biden just continues to get caught in
these lies. I mean it's like one after another after
another after another. I mean this week alone. He claimed
that he taught political theory, for example, at the University
(00:24):
of Pennsylvania. He never taught a single class.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Listen, our democracy is under attack and we got a
fight for it. I taught at the University of Pennsylvania
for four years, and I used to teach political theory,
and folks always here. Every generation has to fight for democracy.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
And then you know, earlier in the week, it was
on a call with rabbi said I was you might say,
raised in the synagogues of my state. Know this is
like you said. He claimed his neighborhood was mostly people
from Puerto Rico. No, that wasn't true either, But he's
telling the rabbis that I was you might say, I
was raised in the synagogues in my state. You think
(01:05):
I'm kidding. I'm not always why does you always say
you think I'm kidding, I'm not.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Wasn't you might say?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Raised in the synagogues of my state are show him
was a whole of killoss friends for me.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
He just makes this Adam Schiff up. It's unreal. Here's
some of his classics.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
I got involved in politics indirectly by getting involved in
the civil rights movement as a kid. I got started
out of an HBCU Delaware State. Now, I don't want
to hear anything negative about Delaware State.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Here.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
I used to drive a tractor trailer.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Ah awesome, and so I'm a little bit about driving
big trucks. By the way, when I left the Vice presidency,
had a chance to do a number of things. But
I became a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. And
by the way, I was doing Villanova's commencement and one
of my nuns from school was getting here doctor degree
and presented a tour and she said it was pretty
good job, but just said you instead of me.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
At the time, Browns are in New York, and I
remember standing there the next day and looking at the building. Now,
I felt like I was looking through the.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Gates of hell. Unbelievable just never stops anyway. Joining us now,
Sean Davis. He is the CEO co founder of the Federalist.
Kaylee McGhee white is with us. She is editor of
the Washington Examiner. Welcome both of you to the program.
Welcome back, Sean. How are you.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
I'm well.
Speaker 6 (02:34):
Thank you for having me, sir, Kaylie.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Good to hear you, Kayleie. Why does this man constantly lie?
And why is it only now people catch it up
with conservatives? We've been pointing this habit of his to
exaggerate constantly. It's not even exaggerating, just flat out lies.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
Yeah, and his entire career has been marked by these lives.
He's lied about participating in a civil rights march, about
being arrested trying to see Nelson Mandela, about how his
son Bo died, About what his economic policies are really
doing to the working class. Oh, and let's not forget
the lie that he was never involved in his sons
Hunter's business feelings. And he does this, Sean, because it's
(03:11):
the he has no choice. It's the only way he
can maintain this facade that he has created, this idea
that he's relatable Uncle Joe.
Speaker 5 (03:19):
He has no choice.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
But to live see American people over and over and
over again, because otherwise the facade starts to break down.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
It really does, Sean. What's your take on it? And
you know, I'm making the case now that I see
cracks in the liberal media, the mob. They're now reporting
on this. They're now reporting even on Joe's cognitive state.
You know, I think we've hit a tipping point when
you have David Ignatius and Maureen Dowd and Van Jones
(03:49):
and James Carvill and David Axelrod, you know, now being
very critical of Joe Biden. Is this now the big
push to get him off the ticket?
Speaker 5 (03:57):
It's a great question. I'm glad you brought up David Ignatius,
because I'm not sure David Ignashe's get out of bed
in the morning without getting a directive from the CIA
or in the Intelligence services to do that on their behalf.
But it's interesting looking at Joe Biden. It's easy, given
his frail state, to assume that these lies and exaggerations
are a function of dementia or age. But as Kayley said,
(04:19):
he's been a liar his entire political career. You go
back thirty forty years He lied about how he graduated
in law school. He wasn't at the top. He's in
the bottom ten percent. He lied about having a full
scholarship in law school. He actually failed a class in
law school for plagiarizing. He plagiarized speeches. As a presidential
candidate in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Seven, Neil kennegat the Labor Party in Britain. Yeah. That
ended that presidential run.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
Yeah, And it's his entire career is marked by lies.
And I don't know if it's a need to be
liked by people or a deep in security that he
needs them to believe he's smarter than he is. But
this is a personal, a personality behavioral failing of him,
function of age and in obviously the age is a
serious issue. But the man's character hasn't changed. He is
(05:07):
exactly today who he's been in politics for fifty years.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Let me stay on this issue again. I'll list Maureen
Dowd and David Ignacious and Van Jones and David Axelrod
and James Carvel. When you start losing them, Kaylee, is
that the canary and the coal mine and not really
the biggest vote of confidence from even Nancy Pelosi this week.
(05:33):
Certainly he's not a vote of confidence her comments on
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Absolutely, And they're signaling that the establishment is getting ready
to toss both Biden and Kamala Harris. And it's interesting
the David Ignacious column that recently came out. Notice the
timing of when that came out. It came out right
after a CNN pool found Biden losing to just about
every Republican primary candidate. That's not a coincidence. This is intention.
(06:00):
The only reason that they are turning on Biden is
because they're worried that he's going to lose. If he
was way up in the polls, this would not be
an issue. They would be circling the wagons, they would
be rallying around him. But because he's weak and they
sense his weakness now that tides are starting to turn.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
But didn't we see a new level of cognitive decline
in Vietnam Sean Davis. I mean, I've been pointing this
out since he was a candidate, and now to listen
to Democrats, I mean, even Joe Scarborough. He lost Joe
Scarborough on the issue of his cognitive state. Another canary
in the coal mine.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
I think so, but I think it's as much about
fear of Trump's strength as it is Biden's weakness. Biden
is obviously weak, but if you look at what the
left has done Trump, they impeached him twice, They've been
died in it him. I don't know how many times.
They're trying to have him thrown off the ballot. They're
trying to get him convicted in the middle of a
campaign next year, and the man, if you believe the polls,
(06:57):
is still tied or even in simples, besting Joe Biden.
The Democrat establishment has to be absolutely terrified. They they
fired every arrow in their quiver at Trump and it
still looks like he's stronger than Biden, and I think
that may actually terrify them more than Biden's particular weakness.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Now this raises another issue here, because the person you
would most naturally look toward would be the vice president.
That would be Kamala Harris. And it was interesting to
me to watch that some but clearly somebody from her
camp or supportive of her, leaked this piece about how
well if Gavin Newsom gets in, it's certainly not going
(07:38):
to be received well by minorities and women. In the party.
Over at that hard hitting news show, The View, Kaylee
Sunny Houston was warning that Biden is going to lose
the black vote if he dumps Kamala Harris. I think
Kamala's her own worst enemy. Her approval ratings are lower
than his. So then the question because who replaces them?
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Right?
Speaker 7 (08:01):
And notice that after those comments came out, Gavin Newsom
announced that he has no intention of running in twenty
twenty four. So he's clearly getting the message here that
identity politics runs the Democratic Party and he better not
get in the way of that. This is part of
the problem when you've tied your entire ideology to this belief,
(08:21):
this obsession with race. Who wants to be the white
California male governor who takes the presidency from the first
black female vice president. No one wants to be that
person because he would get killoried by the far left.
So this is a top dilemma for other hopeful Democrats
to be in right now, where they recognize that Kamala
(08:43):
is uniquely weak as a vice president, they recognize Biden's weaknesses,
and yet who was going to step up to challenge them?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, I think that's I mean okay. Gavin Newsom, Now,
when I interviewed him, and I don't know if either
one of you saw the interview, but when I interviewed him,
I pressed him hard about how many people on a
daily basis are piging his phone saying that he needs
to get into this race. He's asked the same questions
by Chuck Todd and then actually gave a strong endorsement
(09:11):
that if Joe didn't run, that it would be Kamala Harrison.
He wouldn't get involved at all. So do you believe
that that's accurate? Sean Davis, You're you know this is
not our first rodeo. I think anything can happen.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
I generally is a rule in politics discount any politician
who says they're not going to run for president, because
they all do it up until the moment they choose
to run for president. You almost have to feel sorry
for Kamala. She's a horrifically bad politician. She's very uniquely unlikable.
She was so unlikable in her own party that she
(09:45):
had to drop out of that primary in twenty twenty
before they even had a single vote cast in any
primary or caucus. So obviously Dems are panicking. It's the
thought of her having to be at the top of
the ticket, her identity, politics, bona fides not withstanding. But
the Democrat problem has that Democrat Party has a real
problem with depth right now. They don't have a deep bench.
(10:06):
They don't have a lot of people sitting out there
waiting to go and I think one reason is their
policies have been so destructive and so bad for the country.
I'm not sure anyone wants to follow behind Joe Biden
and have to take credit or where his record as
an albatross around their own next.
Speaker 8 (10:21):
What are your thoughts, Kelly, I think that as the
deadlines loom, you're going to start to see more Democratic
officials dipping their toes in the water to see what
the establishment's reaction might be.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
I'm from Michigan. I'm watching pretty closely what Gretchen Whitmer
is going to do. Her name is one that I've
heard floated around several times about a potential even VP
pick if Biden decides to dump Kamala. Wouldn't be surprised
if she tried her hand at a sort of national run.
I think you're going to start to see more of
that over the next coming weeks, over the next few months,
(10:54):
especially as the pools keep coming back with really poor
ratings for both Biden and Kamala, that's.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Going to be very interesting. Let me ask you both,
who do you think would be the most the strongest
candidate for them? I mean, look, Gavin is right out
of Central Casting, the governor of California. However, I mean
his policies are so over the top, radical left wing.
You know, would Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, would they support those policies,
(11:21):
Sean Davis.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
Yeah, when I look at their bench, I think the
person most likely you might keep Biden go after if
he wants the dumb Kamala would be Eric Adam, the
mayor of New York City. That might actually explain his
little flip flop on immigration in the past week. He's
becoming a little more hawkish. The media like him, and
he of course checks the identity politics boxes that the
(11:44):
Democrat Party establishment demands.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Well, I mean yours. I was more asking the question
about Joe. If Joe doesn't, if Joe says, you know,
after talking to my wife, my wife Jill, and my
family and consulting with the people closest to me. I
think I've come to the conclusion that it would be
the right time for somebody else to take over blah
blah blah, and I will not be a candidate for
(12:08):
the twenty twenty four presidential race. Who then gets in
and who would win and who would be the most formidable?
Speaker 5 (12:15):
I think it would be Eric Eric Adams at this point,
I think it would be someone who's not been in
national politics. Because the national political situation is so bad,
it's going to have to be someone with a fairly
thin record that the right can't go after. So you're
going to be looking at someone who's been a mayor
or governor for not particularly long, who's good on camera
and can say the right lines.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Who do you think it would be? If you had
to pick somebody Kayley again.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
I'm going to say Gretchen Whitmer. She could get the
suburban woman vote pretty easily. She represents a midwestern twing state.
She's kind of the ideal candidate that they're looking for. However,
I will say I don't think it matters quite that
much who the candidate is, because ultimately they're not going
to be the ones running the administration. We know that's
the case with Joe Biden right now, he is not
(13:01):
the one in charge. Whoever they put in that White House,
we're going to get the exact same result either way.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
All right, quick, Frank. We'll come back more with Sean
Davis and Kaylee McGee white on the other side. And
then your calls. Eight hundred ninety four to one, Shawn
is our number. All right, we continue. We'll get to
your calls in the next half hour. Eight hundred ninety
four one Shawn on this Friday, But we continue with
Sean Davis and Kaylee McGee white. All Right. I'm not
thinking Donald Trump gets a fair trial in New York
(13:27):
DC or Fulton County, Georgia. Let's start there. If he
has a conviction in an election year and doesn't get
a chance that appeal in an election year, how does
that play out with independent voter Sean Davis.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
I think that's the major question. It's unprecedented. It's almost
impossible to predict. I think a lot of people have
baked in that these are completely political, that they're based
entirely on the Democrat Party trying to take out their
top opponent. But it's hard to gauge exactly how people
are going to react at the moment he gets convicted.
(14:02):
And I assume he will be convicted and by DC jury.
They would convict a ham Sandwich if it had an
R next to its name. So I could see a
situation where, you know, maybe the bottom pulls out for him,
or it could actually galvanize support for him when it
demonstrates how focused the machine is on taking him out,
not because of who he is, but because of what
the all.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Mike, galvanize the base. I'm asking, how does it impact
independent voters, the ones that usually decide elections?
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Right, Well, I mean, I can make the argument either way.
The argument that it could help him is you never
want to be running is the incumbent when things are bad.
You'd much rather be the outsider, the person coming in
to shake things up. What better position to be and
than the regime that's ruined everything trying to take you out?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
All right, and Kelly, you agree with that, listen.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
I think it hurts him among independent voters, and I
think that's why Democrats are doing this in the first place.
I think that they're banking on the idea that swing voters,
suburban women, independents, won't look into the legitimacy of the
individual charges so much as they will care about the
fact that he is being charged in the first place.
I don't think we understand what the ramifications of these
(15:10):
court appearances are going to be, especially considering that he
has almost a dozen of them over the span of
a year. It's not going to be a good luck.
I think it hurts his campaign, and I think that's
exactly why Democrats are doing this.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Thank you Cayley, Thank you. Sean Davis eight hundred nine
foot one, Shawn on Number.

one Sean on Number. This Friday, we'll get to your
calls this final half hour. You're tired of watching stock

That's Phoenix on Hannity dot com. Well this was pretty entertaining, actually,
because New York City residents angry over the Joe Biden
open borders policy and the one hundred thousand plus illegal
(17:25):
immigrants dumped into the neighborhoods all over the state of
New York by the Biden administration, only thirteen percent sent
up by the Governor of Texas Abbot. Although the Mayor
Adams keeps playing the governor for the out of control
illegal immigrant problem in New York, but he once was
saying nowhere open we're wide open and didn't want to
(17:46):
go visit the border to see up close and personal
what Texas was dealing with. Anyway, So now it's you know,
they're estimating twelve percent, sorry, twelve billion dollars. It's going
to cost taxpayers in New York City alone. There's a
lot of frustration because the Biden administration is not helping.
Also frustration about where to put them. And the answer
this week from Joe Biden's administration will send them to
(18:08):
Long Island and upstate New York. I keep him in
New York anyway, So you had protesters. Now there was
a I guess, a joint town hall meeting with AOC
Congresswoman Alexandria Cassio Cortes and Congressman Jerry Nadler and other
Democrats Friday during a midtown press conference about this very
issue and anyway, the New York polls were drowned out
(18:31):
by angry screams as they tried to talk outside the
Roosevelt Hotel Mega shelter early this morning. Send them back.
A lot of people were screaming. Jonathan Ronaldi, Queen's City
council candidate, shouting, closed the border, closed the border, others,
you know, screaming I'm your constituent, a male protester crying out.
At one point, a security guard grabbed Ernaldi forty four
(18:53):
shoved him behind the barricade. Protesters brandishing America first vetted
in legal ill Migrants only signs. They descended at this
East forty fifth Street hotel as lawmakers were addressing the
city's illegal immigrant crisis. AOC are members of the Congressional
Hispanic Caucus had toward the emergency shelter when the chaos erupted.
(19:16):
And anyway, here's AOC from earlier today trying to talk
about what's going on in New York City and gets
shouted over.
Speaker 6 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (19:26):
And ultimately, I think that there are three points of
consensus here that are very important in getting a solution
to this issue. The first is that there is consensus
here across geography and states and increased federal resources to
cities and municipalities dealing with this issue.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
The second is to allow for.
Speaker 10 (19:47):
Work authorizations so that folks in here can get to
work and start supporting themselves as soon as possible. They
are prevented from getting jobs, they are prevented from employment, and.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
That is part of the strain on our public.
Speaker 10 (20:00):
The faster that books to the work that they're asking
for legally consult.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
And is extension of temporary protected stay there.
Speaker 10 (20:10):
Then it's weather for are the largest.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Population the thing you want. Wow, get a little hostile there.
But you know what, it's so out of control, borders
out of control, the economies out of control, energy prices
are out of control.
Speaker 11 (20:26):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
We now have one rogue nation, hostile geopolitical foe after
another joining forces.
Speaker 11 (20:32):
This.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
This is not pretty. This is what America with a weak,
frail cognitive mess as a president looks like that has
radical views. Anyway, let's go to Carlton Is in Georgia.
You're on the Sean Hannity Show. Happy Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Happy Friday, Sean. It's great to spay with you, sir.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I was wondering. I was wondering why more people are
not questioning Joe Biden's cognitive ability, the considering that he
has control over the nuclear codes.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
I don't think he's Look, you ever go to Walmart
and you have maybe some retired people. I've met some
of the nicest people. They're Walmart greaders. I think they
call them. You ever, you ever go to Walmart and
you walk in the door and they had to tell you,
you know, by the way, where's your sporting department, where's
your whatever department? Whatever you're looking for?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Right?
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you ever meet those people? Because I have, Yeah,
I love Walmart. I mean, you go to Super Walmart.
It's awesome. They have everything you'd ever want, great prices, Walmart, Target, Costco.
I like all those places. I like Costco, especially when
they give free food out and I end up. I
usually end up buying whatever it is that they are
preparing in front of me because I can't control my
(21:47):
appetite as usual. I don't even think he's fit enough
to be a Walmart reader, because I don't think he'd
be able to remember where all the departments are. And
it has nothing to do with his age. I'll give
you an example, Bernie Sanders. I believe he's older than
him and these sharp as attack has to do with,
you know, his cognitive state. This guy had two frontal
lobe surgeries in the eighties. I don't know if that's
(22:08):
impacting all this or I just you know, some people
I've heard of early onset Alzheimer's disease for people. People
in their fifties for crying out loud even younger. Scary.
I mean, these and there's no cure for these diseases.
They're degenerative. And I think we saw in Vietnam it's
gotten worse for this guy.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
Yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I mean my father passed away from Alzheimer's, so I
know what that's like.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I'm sorry to hear that. By the way, it's terrible
to watch that decline, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Oh yes, it took a long time.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
But yeah, it takes a long time. And you know,
then when you get to the point where they don't
recognize you, or you get to the point you know,
they ask a question, you answer it, and two minutes
later they're asking the same question, and then two minutes
after that they'll ask it again. I've seen it all.
I don't like it. I feel bad for them. Yeah, anyway,
I don't think he could be I don't think he's
up to the job of a Walmart greeter. And your
(22:57):
point is he's got the nuclear codes. Pretty scary, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah, Because I think you know, he could just go, oh, well,
let's see what these buttons do.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Well, he wouldn't be able to pull it off. That way,
he might actually have to remember the code, and unless
there was a good reason, I got to believe somebody
around him would stop him anyway, Sir, thank you for
the call. You have a great weekend. Brad is in Ohio.
What's up, Brad? How are you, sir?
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Sean? How you doing?
Speaker 6 (23:25):
You're a great American?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Thank you, my friend, You're a great American. Happy Friday
to you.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
It is a happy Friday. Hey, I wanted to call you.
I'm a first time caller, but I wanted to call
you in regards to the Hunter Biden gun fiasco here,
and my point being is that, if I'm not mistaken,
the gun that he purchased is a thirty eight snubnosed revolver.
And I'm not a gun expert. I'm a gun enthusiast,
(23:52):
but a thirty eight snubnosed revolver is only good for
two things. One is protection and two is to kill somebody.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
So I don't remember if it was a snub nose.
I off the top of my head, I just don't
specifically recall. I should pull up. It was in the
it was in the indictment. I got it here somewhere
in my pile. But it's it's irrelevant. It is a firearm.
He wasn't eligible to get it. He was you know,
look the pictures alone to me, and I tried to
(24:20):
make this out to this crazy leftist caller in the
last hour. You know, the pictures speak volumes.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
You know.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
He's there, he's naked, he's got the gun in his hand,
you know, and he's hanging out in hotel rooms, you know,
smoking crack and hanging out with hookers. Not exactly a
safe environment for a firearm.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
You think, well, and here's the point is that if
I'm Hunter Biden and my dad is the second most
powerful person in the world, because I think his dad
was VP when he had this weapon, why do I
need a firearm? And nobody from the media has bothered
to ask why did Hunter need a gun? Because he's
got the protection of the Secret Service? Why didn't the
(25:00):
Secret Service step in if he needed protection? The only
other thing I can think of is if he planned
on using it on another human being.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
I don't know if he had Secret Service protection at
the time. I know he had some because when the
gun was put in the dumpster, thankfully found by a
good samaritan who handed it over to the police. The
issues about the Secret Service potential involvement in that came up.
I hope they didn't do anything to get involved. But
putting that aside, you know, certainly they weren't in the room.
(25:31):
I don't know what they know.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
I don't And again, would have had to have known
that he purchased this firearm and he is arm length
way from world leaders and flying on air PA one.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Well, they also had to know that he was addicted
to drugs. I mean, you can't be around somebody that's
using crack and not know it, at least I don't
think so. Look, I mean it's just a The whole
thing is sad. I mean, I know families, you know,
I've had members, you know, not in my immediate family,
but people that I know, my extended family, that have
(26:06):
had addiction problems. And it sucks. I mean, I've seen
lives wasted and destroyed because of substance abuse. I don't
care if it's alcoholism, drug addiction. It's it's a terrible, terrible,
insidious way to live. You are a slave to whatever
that substance you're addicted to is. It's terrible right.
Speaker 6 (26:27):
But the thing is is when is he going to
rehab and if he has been, there are a number
of times, why isn't he I got great question, but
it does it's irrelevant to actually as relates to the
issue of law because he lied on.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
The gun form and and this you know what, he
was not in a He was not somebody that should
be having a firearm in that condition. If you're using
those those drugs, it is not safe. Period, end of sentence.
Kind of simple.
Speaker 6 (26:52):
Still want to know why he needed the gun in
the first place.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Because he probably wanted it to be cool. I don't know.
Don't buy a gun to be cool. Buy a gun
if you think if you want a firearm, get trained
in the use of it. That's my advice. And you
know what the greatest thing about I will say this
and the NRA never got credit for this, but you
know they're great at it. You know people that are
are marksmen, people that are gun enthusiasts. If you're a
(27:17):
novice and you want to learn how to safely own
a weapon, a firearm, and it's safe use of and
safe storage. Of the most generous people with their time
are people that believe in the second Amendment because they
know it's in everybody's best interest not to have people
that are not trained with firearms. You know, people will
(27:41):
ask me what kind of gun should I get? Which
one do you want to get trained in the safe
use of I had this conversation with Linda when she
was getting her first firearm. Linda, you remember I went
through all this with you, chapter and verse, and to
your credit, you learned safety before you actually purchase your
first weapon.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (27:59):
I've actually done a lot lot of training.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
You know.
Speaker 11 (28:01):
I did some with Uscca he used to be on
the show. I've practiced every day with mantus X. You know,
Berna by r naar new sponsor or off for a
ton of training, exercise and even though it's a non lethal,
less lethal firearm, you know it's you have to practice.
You have to be smart. You know, safety is the
first rule of owning a firearm.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
I'll tell you the one thing mantis X did for me,
because I've been on radio thirty some odd years, you know,
my my hearing loss is you can attest to is
pretty acute. And I just had to stop stop practicing
because I had one incident in which I was firing shotguns,
(28:43):
and I had internal air protection and external air protection.
I really protected my ears and I walked away, and
I had ringing in my ears for like three straight weeks.
And I know other people that have had that. It's
it is the it is. It'll drive you nuts. And
I was so grateful it went away. I didn't fire
my firearm since then. Now, I've been a marksman since
(29:06):
I'm a young kid, a pistol marksman, So I wasn't
worried about the safety and security and use of the
weapon of God forbid, I need it, but I just
didn't want to further injure my ears and have the
ringing remain permanent. What do they call tenanitis or something
like that.
Speaker 11 (29:21):
Yeah, it's tenanitis. And unfortunately, if you don't know these
things because you don't learn about them before you go
and make your first purchase, you know, these are important
things to learn, like when you're purchasing your gun. Okay,
so what are next steps? You know, how do I
take care of it? What kind of safe can I buy?
What kind of you know, biometrics are involved in, like
you know the hand safes, fingerprint safes, like there's all
(29:42):
different things you should be asking, and then you should
be asking about how do I go and get trained?
And what do I do to protect my ears, my eyes,
you know, et cetera. How often should I be practicing?
You know, you don't want the first time you shoot
your gun to be when somebody's in your bedroom saying
hands up. I mean, that's not the moment. You know
what I'm saying. You're not going to become good in
like thirty seconds.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Uh, not at all. And and it's not a toy.
I tell everybody, and even Burner you know it's non lethal.
But you know what, you know it's no joke. If
you're not familiar in the safe use of a firearm,
and in this case it's non lethal, you don't don't
mess with it until you get somebody, find somebody, Just
go to a local range and just you know, ask
(30:22):
is there anybody I'd like to take a lesson? You know,
I just got this. I got this as a gift.
I'm not training the use of it. Is there anybody
here that can give me a lesson? And you be
shocked if you get on the range and you start
asking questions. I've been out ranges and guys are like
you know, Hannah, you want to fire this weapon or
that weapon. I'm like, yeah, teach me about the weapon
(30:43):
before I fire it.
Speaker 11 (30:44):
I will tell you my last self defense class. I
got the person through my pastor, through my.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Church did They're the most generous people. They will give
you all the knowledge they've accumulated. They will take the
time and and by the time you you know, you'll
you'll then be you know, safe gun owner. There's no
reason for gun accidents. Honestly, there really isn't. If you
if you really take the measures seriously, you're not going
to have an accident. And that I can tell you.
(31:12):
All Right, that's gonna wrap things up for today. We
got a special tonight on Hannity. So Mark Levin, the
Great One, is debuting his new book. It's called The
Democrat Party Hates America. By the way, just the title
is gonna make liberals heads explode. Anyway, We're going to
get into the great specificity in detail in this book.
I'll tell you one thing it is. It is very comprehensive,
(31:36):
exhaustibly researched, and you're going to learn things you did
not know about this Democratic Party. Anyway. That's tonight Hannity,
say your DVR nine Eastern Fox News, see you tonight.
Back here on Monday. Have a great weekend.
