Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information Overload.
Right News round Up, Information Overload. I were toll free
on numbers eight hundred and ninety four one Sean if
you want to be a part of the program. Before
we talked to our friend Miranda Devine about the bidens,
about the sabotage on the way out the door erased
meuse and Paul having showing the most voters think that
(00:23):
Joe Biden will go down as one of the worst
presidents in American history. And you know, I noticed he
didn't show up in North Carolina after Hurricane Helene. I
noticed he didn't show up. And he's Palestine in Ohio
after that train wreck. But he's out there with his buddy,
his biggest champion, Gavin Newsom, with these California wildfires going on.
(00:46):
I'm not saying it's inappropriate for him to be there,
but it would have been appropriate for him to pay
attention to the people that have been freezing to death,
living intense But he knows a thing or two about
wildfires and bad forestry because unfortunately Australia practices this, you know,
the same and as the same insanity, this unwillingness to
(01:08):
have controlled burns. This unwillingness to clear out a lot
of the the materials that are likely to cause these
wildfires and to cause them to become bigger than they are.
We're watching the disaster unfolding in California, you know, the
Pacific Palisades on down and up and around, and a
lot of people losing their homes. It's heartbreaking to watch.
(01:29):
Miranda Divine, author of The Big Guy, How a President
and his son sold out America is back. Miranda, you
know a thing or two about forest fires and the
lack of the science of forestry. It is a science.
There is a way to prevent forest fires, you know,
to quote Smokey the.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Bear, absolutely, and California has made the decision not to
do the work the management of its forests that it
should have done to reduce the severity of these routine,
regular wild fires. They are going to happen, that is nature.
But the only reason that it's turned into this absolutely
(02:07):
deadly conflagration is because, just as Donald Trump told Gavin
Newsom back in twenty eighteen, there is too much dry
kindling in the forest. They have not done the proper
hazard management. You do regular you know, low energy fires
to make sure that you fin it out and so
(02:28):
that there is no fuel for these fires when they
inevitably break out. And instead what California has done, which
Australia did the same thing. It's this green ideology driving it.
They put all their eggs in the fire suppression basket.
And we have seen over the last twenty four hours,
no matter how good and brave your firefighters are, no
(02:50):
matter how good your equipment, you cannot put out the
fires once they get into this insane temperature.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well, they have a problem, and that what we've discovered
is that their LA firefighters are at their wits end
because of all the broken fire hydrants that are that
have no water in them and haven't been working for
some time. There's also the issue of the mayor of
La slashing the firefighter's budget by seventeen million dollars only
(03:20):
months before the city went up in flames. Add to
that that the mayor isn't even in town. The mayor
is in Ghana and has made no effort to get
back to Los Angeles. Then you had DEI, which Adam
Carolla effectively testified to Congress about. But you know, all
of this combined together, the you know, why not embrace
(03:40):
controlled burns. Why not embrace the science of forestry. You know,
why not remove the brush that, as you rightly point out,
as the kindling for these fires that allows it to
burn the way it does. You know, you can also
clear out, you know, certain areas and create barriers so
that when even Santa Anna wins, which can go as
(04:02):
high as eighty plus miles per hour, you know, are
pushing the fire in directions all over the place where
you literally have you know, an area where you can
stop a fire, fire, fire fire from spreading. And yet
all of this is rejected because of you know, endangered species,
(04:23):
environmental radicalism exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
And their excuse is they say, oh, it's not our
fauld it's not management, it's climate change. That's always their excuse.
And so they double down, and you know, this was
easily preventable, and that every single person who has lost
property should be suing the state of California. Donald Trump
in twenty eighteen and his Interior secretary at the time,
(04:49):
Ryan Zinc, pointed out that the green mentality had caused
California's conflagrations. Then back in twenty eighteen, when it was
also a desire and Donald Trump said there's no reason
for these deadly and costly forest fires in California except
that forest management is so poor. What happens, Ryan Zinc
(05:11):
gets thrown out on some bogus corruption scandal and then
because he'd was Green Enemy number one of course, and
Gavin Newsom and co. Just completely ignored Donald Trump. You
add to that what you just mentioned about the incompetence
of local government, Karen Bass being a perfect example. Unbelievable
(05:32):
that she's off holidaying in Garner at taxpayer expense instead
of being back with the people of La and you know,
to also apologize and make amends for her terrible water
management as well as you mentioned those fire hudrants cracked
and broken. How on earth they expect firefighters who are
(05:54):
under siege from this local government from the Democrats treated
like like I mean, you see it in New York
with the DEI nonsense with the fire department. DEI is
like a toxic poison that has gone through every single
institution and it is rendering them incompetent. You're seeing that
(06:16):
in La with the firefighting. I'm not saying they're actual firefighters,
but their numbers have been depleted. Thanks to DEI. Their
competence has been depleted, and then they're not able to
access water. You compound that with this green ideology, with
all the forests being left untouched because of you know,
(06:36):
whatever species. How do you think the endangered species are
going right now? As this deadly wildfire burns through, they
can't run away from it. It's just too hot. So
they are extinguished like the houses of those poor people.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
You reference Donald Trump twice in twenty eighteen out in California,
warning that for that fires can be prevented. And here's
what he said back in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Cleaned out and protected. You've got to take care of
the floors, you know, the floors of the forest very important.
You look at other countries where they do it differently,
and it's a whole different story. I was with the
president of Finland and he said, we have much different
We're a forest nation. He called it a forest nation.
(07:26):
And they spent a lot of time on raking and
cleaning and doing things and they don't have any problem.
And what it is, it's a very small problem. So
I know everybody's looking at that to that end, and
it's going to.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Work out well.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
President Trump was right, is right, it's still right today
and beyond the broken fire hydrants and the mayor missing
in action, you'll love this. We did a little did
a little research and while she's out, you know, cutting
the budget of the fire department, and you know, she
(08:01):
somehow managed to find hundreds of millions of dollars for
quote green energy conversion at the Port of Los Angeles.
The headline Port of Los Angeles awarded four hundred and
twelve million dollars in a grand from the US EPA
for zero emissions transformation and anyway, they give a big
(08:23):
thank you, et cetera, et cetera. The port, the private
sector partners will match the EPA grant. So the total
amount of money they spent on turning the Port of
Los Angeles green was six hundred and forty four million
dollars in. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, they don't have fire
hydrants that work, they don't have a mayor that's in town.
(08:44):
They do zero science of forestry, They don't clear out
any of the kindling, any of the brush. They do
do no controlled burns. And what we're supposed to be
and cut the firefighter's budget and we're supposed to be
surprised that this happens. I don't think so. I think
this is very predictable. Sadly, am I wrong, Miranda.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
No, It's utterly predictable and very sad that they don't
learn the lesson. This has a lesson that period every
five or six years, as the brush grows up, California
is going to get another wildfire. And you know, as
bad as it gets, it had a you know, they
have all sorts of excuses. It doesn't matter how dry
(09:27):
you winter is. If you have gotten rid of the kindling,
you're not going to have these problems. And the great
irony is all the greenies that have created this problem.
We are now the greenhouse gases that are being spewed
into the atmosphere from these wildfires are way more than
(09:47):
any of the greenhouse gases that might be spent at
the Port of Los Angeles. That they're going to spend
half a billion dollars trying to get to zero missions,
good luck with that.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Unbelievable. It's really sad, and I guess this is going
to continue because it looks like, you know, post Gavenussom,
it looks like the leading contender is going to be
Kamala Harris. Do you think she has any desire to
adopt any common sense measures that would prevent these forest fires?
Speaker 4 (10:14):
Sean No.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
And that's the tragedy is that you know, there is
no common sense in today's Democrats because they are just
so bound up with ideology. There's the odd person like
John Fedterman who still has common sense, but really that's
Donald Trump is all about common sense, and that's why
he's able to come to solutions to problems that seem
(10:38):
intractable when they're all bound up with this crazy thinking
that you get from the left, which is everything but
the truth. The truth is pretty simple, and yet they
make it complicated by talking about climate change and greenhouse
gas blah blah, as if that makes any difference to
the fact that nature is going to burn and it's
(11:00):
going to burn whatever is in its path. So if
you leave dry kindling in its path, of course it's
going to burn really hot and it will burn the
houses in its way. And if you don't have the
water from your broken fire hydrants to put it out,
well it's just going to keep on burning. So it's
(11:21):
so obvious, it's so common sense. You I all your
listeners know it. Donald Trump knows it. But for some reason,
these Democrats in power seem to have polluted their brain
so that they can no longer think clearly. They're so
clouded by bizarre ideologies that are all about gaining more
(11:43):
power for themselves, and that they have been very competent
at And you can see with California, like New York,
there are one party states and one party cities. And unfortunately,
you look at LA and you look at New York
and Chicago and all these Democrats cities and how they
(12:04):
are just falling apart. Crime is rampant, and yet we're
told every day, oh, there's no problem. We're told by
New York Governor Kathy Hochel that the subways are safe
on the very day that a woman gets burned alive.
In a couple of days before, another man gets shoved
in front of a subway car.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
So there, look at this guy that had been arrested
eighty seven times stabbing two people. I mean, look, there
is no law in order in New York City anymore.
It's non existent. The non these no bare laws or insanity.
They apply to everybody pretty much, but Donald Trump, who
they're still trying to go after and still want a
sentence on Friday, which is insanity.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Also, yes, but they will tell you, these Democrats that
it's the safest big city in the country, that in
la They will tell you that everything's working fine, and
that it's climate change that is the problem of the wildfire.
They pretend that the homeless problem is somehow the problem
of I don't know, an old Republican administration that didn't
(13:09):
give enough money. Doesn't matter how much money you put
at homelessness. You have people who are mentally ill and
addicted to drugs, and they need some sort of management.
They can't be left down on the streets to become
victims and to become victimizers. And this is again a
problem of no common sense in the management of our
(13:31):
cities and our states. And that is purely and simply
a product of the Democratic Party and the left. I
don't know why they think that it is in their
best interests to continue like this, but obviously they've managed
to keep power for many decades, so maybe they just
don't care.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Maybe they're losing it. Will Joe Biden go down on
history as one of the worst presidents ever? One Number two?
Will Joe Biden and Hunter Ever and this family ever
be held accountable for selling access and be brought to
trial on charges.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Look, I'm very glad that people are finally seeing the
true colors of Joe Biden now that he's out of
office and only has another three weeks left. He's really
showing who he is, and that he's a nasty, vituperative man,
boastful and is.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Pardoning, vindictive, angry, bitter. Yeah, I only have a few seconds.
Will he be held accountable?
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I doubt it. I mean he's eighty two years old.
Robert Hurd, the Special Counsel, said that no jury would
convict him because of his poor memory. Hunter Biden, I
think probably won't be either. I mean, his father's pardoned
him fourteen years back, and I know that he will
definitely be pardoning his rather Jim Biden before January twenty Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
No doubt. And then watch for Liz Cheney, and watch
for Anthony Fauci, and watch for Benny Thompson. It's all
coming anyway, Miranda. I wish we had more time. We
appreciate you being with us. Our prayers do go out
to the people of California, all right. Twenty five now
till the top of the hour, eight hundred and ninety
four one. Sean, if you want to be a part
of the program, if you listen to this program, you
(15:23):
know that I love to cook. I've loved it ever
since I was a cook in a restaurant when I
was only thirteen years old.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
And by the way, I was doing real food, I
mean seafood, fra diablo and shrim scambi and bett and
chini alfredo and stuff, lobsters and steaks and burgers, and
it was a great, great kind of published type of menu.
But it taught me not only how to cook, but
it gave me a passion for cooking. And my passion
(15:54):
has not waned at all. If anything, it's gotten crazy.
I like to cook every meal myself and chef iq sense.
I mean, it's just incredible technology and it's so simple.
I wish I thought of it myself. I wish I
wish I own part of this company.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
It's so good.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
It means you can get whatever you're cooking right every
single time. If you're cooking steaks, if you're cooking pork
chops or pork ribs, if you're cooking fish, if you're cooking.
It doesn't really matter fish. Everything will come out to
your preferred outcome. It's a completely wireless cooking thermometer. It
(16:33):
eliminates all undercooking, all overcooking, no matter how you cook it.
It can withstand the extreme heat, even in your deep fryer,
whether you're grilling, whether you're roasting, whether you're broiling, whether
you're baking. Chef iq Sense guarantees that whatever you're cooking
is going to be perfect every single solitary time. You
(16:55):
just put a wireless probe into your food. You choose
your desired level of done. This on the chef iq app.
It'll tell you when to turn your food, it'll tell
you when your food is done, and it'll stop any confusion,
eliminate any risk, and you will serve the perfect meal
with confidence every single time. Now, chef iq Sense works
(17:17):
out of the box with your favorite appliances. You can
find it at chefiq dot com. Today. You're going to
love this technology. I love it. I use it for
every meal chefiq dot com. Today, we have Adam Carolla
on Hannity tonight nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel.
Very interesting video is emerged of him that has gone
(17:42):
pretty mainstream. He and I never knew this about him.
I find him a very interesting guy, smart guy, funny guy.
He's iconoclastic, he's irreverent. He's not politically correct, he's not
woke anyway. He once applied to be a firefighter in
LA and he gave testimony before Congress. I believe that
(18:06):
he had to wait seven years to get a callback
for an exam because of the issue of DEI, and
this is what he said.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I graduated North hollywod High with a one point seven GPA.
I could not find a job. I walked to a
fire station in North Hollywood. I was nineteen. I was
living in the garage of my family home. My mom
was on welfare and food stamps. And I said, can
I get a job as a fireman? And they said no,
because you're not black, Hispanic or a woman. We'll see
(18:35):
in about seven years. And I went to a construction
site in Dug Ditches and picked up garbage for the
next seven years. I got a letter in the mail
sent to my father's house saying, your time has come
to do the written exam for the LA Fire Department.
I took it and I was standing in line and
I had a young woman of color standing behind me
(18:56):
line and I said, just out of curiosity, when did
you sign up to become a fire man? Because I
did it or a person seven years ago. And she
said Wednesday, that is an example of my white privilege.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Now, there's a lot of issues that have come into
play here. That's one of them. But then we have
firefighters running out of water. We have the LA Mayor
is in Ghana and has not flown back to Los Angeles.
The LA Mayor had cut funding for the LA Fire
Department only months before this latest burn. There is no
(19:33):
science of forestry for the most part, that is used
out in California, in large part because of their adherence
to environmental radicalism. California firefighters are running out of water.
They're having problems because a lot of these these hydrants
are bone dry. And how that happened, there's no explanation
(19:53):
for it. The water supply is just not there. They
hadn't made plans for this. There is no water in
the fire hydrants. They don't work. And a lot of
this was predicted even and I played it earlier in
the program. I won't play it now by by Donald Trump.
The science of forestry is real. You can prevent forest
fires if you if you take the time and put
(20:16):
the money in the effort and the resources towards it.
You have nearly three hundred thousand California Power customers left
in the dark as of yesterday morning, a lot more
as of today. And anyway, during the press conference, you
have their chief engineer, you know, spoke to confirming demand
(20:36):
for water is hampered by the ability to refill the
tanks on the hillsides. But that's this is all, you know,
an excuse. You know, why aren't they practicing safe forestry
out in California? And it makes no sense. Why aren't
they having controlled burns? Why is that? Effective smoke and
(20:57):
burn management requires appropriate planning And it's something that with
the weather out in California and the amount of droughts
they have out in California, should be basic and should
be fundamental. Daniel Cameron, who's going to be joining us
in a second as the former Kentucky Attorney General now
CEO of the seventeen ninety two Exchange. Anyway, he talks
(21:19):
about the DEI aspect of this. This is exactly what
Adam Carolla is talking about. And he says, you know,
programs like DEI are on death watch. Listen, the big
question is with Trump coming in as Deidad forever, is
this just a time out?
Speaker 6 (21:35):
Well, Jackie David, thank you guys for having me on.
ESG and DEI are on deathwatch. As we know, President
Trump is certainly going to make sure that his administration
gets out of the quota business and gets focused on
making sure that our corporations are about productivity.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
A lot of big companies from McDonald's and let's see
and Ford Motor Company. I mean, many of them have
suspended their participation in these programs because of the backlash
that has occurred as a result of it. But anyway,
Daniel Cameron joins us. Now, how do you explain what
(22:16):
Adam Carolla testified to there that he waited seven years
and that he goes in and he meets somebody and
asked them, well when did you apply. I applied seven
years ago, and they said, well, I applied last Wednesday.
How do you explain that?
Speaker 5 (22:30):
Well, Sean first, thanks for having me on to talk
to you and your listeners. Look, this is the quintessential
problem that we have with DII programs. They essentially have
run amok, such that instead of getting quality people in
as soon as you can, based on merit and based
on passion and desire and willingness to do the job,
(22:52):
you've got quotas in place, and those simply do not.
They do a disservice to not only a small communities
that need good firefighters, need good first responders to help
in these particular instances with what's happening out in California,
and if you see other challenges that exist across our country,
(23:14):
but it also demonstrates the fact that the far left
has entrenched themselves in too many areas of our lives.
They've entrenched themselves in our corporate community, They've entrenched theirselves
in our agencies and in the federal government. But again
with a new administration in the form of President Donald J. Trump,
(23:34):
I think we're going to see a lot of this
go away. We're going to see a reduction in this
idea of quotas. And to your point, I mean, we've
seen a lot of iconic brands, whether it's Walmart, whether
it's McDonald's, whether it's Ford, whether it's Lows, that have
made a decision that they're going to move back to
sanity and focus on those key words that I referenced earlier, merit,
(23:57):
excellence and intelligence. That's how we need to run our businesses.
That's how we need to run the federal government. That's
why President Trump is bringing in Elon Musk and they Ronaswami,
because they both know that to get to a better
outcome and more efficiency and proficiency within government, you got
(24:17):
to focus on merit, excellence and intelligence. I'm excited to
see it. It's unfortunate that Adam wasn't able to get
that job, but you know, obviously I think he's done
okay for himself.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
There's been a lot of backlash to these companies. Is
that what is that? What is causing this? Or do
you believe that these companies finally maybe feel less pressure
from the government.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Yeah, look, I think it's a few things. First, I
think there was a Supreme Court case. Even McDonald's mentioned
that in their statement winding down their DEI policies. There's
a case in the Supreme Court who's called Students for
Fair Admissions in which the Supreme Court essentially struck down
quotas in the public education university context. And a lot
of people myself included in argued that that same rationale
(25:02):
can be used when it comes to our corporations, meaning
that corporations could find themselves in the legal cross hairs,
if you will, related to these DEI programs, and they
want to avoid legal exposure. And so there's that component.
The other component that is really important. One of the
(25:23):
things that we focus on in seventeen ninety two Exchange
is in forming consumers to make good choices and decisions.
And of course if consumers, and I dare say the
majority of your listeners and the majority of folks across
this country want companies not to preach to them about
a partisan agenda. What they want from companies is a
good product. Sean. You know, from the mid nineties when
(25:48):
Michael Jordan was asked, you.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
Know, why doesn't he speak out on political issues, he
said something to a kin to this, he said, well,
Republicans buy shoes too. That's where we need to get
back to in terms of our corporate community, that they
need to focus on building the best products, providing the
best service when it comes to customer engagement. And that's
where I hope we will get and I do think
(26:10):
with a new president again with Donald Trump coming in
who has always already expressed skepticism related to diversity, equity
and inclusion quota programs, having already expressed skepticism to that.
I think a lot of companies, and in conjunction with
the legal exposure, want to get in front of it,
want to make a good business decision, a good sound
(26:33):
business decision, to restore their companies and corporate community back
to common sense. And again I'm excited to see all
these companies that made these decisions.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Well, we appreciate what you're doing. Keep us up to
speed on all of it. Thank you so much, and
we hope to have you back. Daniel Cameron, thank you
so much. Eight hundred and nine to four one. Shawn
is our number if you want to be a part
of the program. Patrick, Utah Next Sean Hannity Show. Hi,
Hey Patrick, how are you.
Speaker 8 (27:02):
I'm great, Sean, Linda, thanks for having me on. I'm
here to raise you know, some talk about a critical
issue I'm sure you're aware of, is the cybersecurity of
our national infrastructure and some of the quantum threats coming
off of that. I just want to let you know
here in Utah, myself and just a couple of the
(27:22):
people one we call the barber and the other is
the architect. We've come up with a solution that can
stop all quantum hacks. It can stop every hack everywhere,
and we've been trying to get it out for ten months.
I even went as far as to travel to Louisiana.
(27:43):
I hand delivered a letter to Representative Clay Higgins because
I know he's involved with CISA, and he promised he
would read it and get back to me, and I
never heard back. But I'm telling you, sir, we have
been pounding the sand trying to tell people because an
attack of the magnitude that we're trying to prevent could
(28:03):
not only kill millions of people, but it can.
Speaker 5 (28:07):
It can.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Well let me ask you, it sounds like you're an
expert in this field, am I correct?
Speaker 5 (28:12):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
So, in the lead up to the election, we know
for a fact that both China and Iran were able
to hack into the Trump campaign and their emails and
their text messages, their phones, et cetera. Now, our own
FBI is incapable of breaking into the phones of would
be assassins, like the six phones that the guy at
(28:35):
Trump International had that would be assassin there, which is
mind numbing that China and Iran can do it, but
our own FBI can't do it, and we need an
explanation for that. But what you're saying is is we
we you believe you have the technology that would create
all the cybersecurity that America needs for national security purposes.
Speaker 8 (28:58):
That's correct, sir. It's it's a post quart on them
cryptography schema. We call it the Little Valley schema, and
it is capable for our government use also to not
only prevent every attack.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
But let me ask you, what's what's the name of
your company? Can you tell us?
Speaker 8 (29:16):
Oh, the name of my company. We're a new company,
meaning I've made negative dollars, but the name of the
company is SKC Solutions LLC. You can find some videos
I've made with AI and stuff, but the information's real.
You can find some videos on TikTok if you just
look up SKC dot Solutions.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Let me ask you, have you ever reached out to
Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg or any of these big
tech people in Silicon Valley? Have you ever reached out
to them? Have you ever reached out to your local
congressman or senator?
Speaker 8 (29:47):
Yes, Sir, I've reached out to so many people. We
have talked to some government organizations with the d D,
but I have been actually trying to get elon just
to hear my message. So on X, I'm constantly posting
things just trying to get him see it. But I
think there's kind of an algorithmic thing going on where
myself is suppressed and probably going to spam. But I've
(30:11):
been trying. It's been ten months, and my deepest concern
is that something is going to happen to prevent this transition.
And if it happened, infrastructure, that's everything.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Well, it's something we ought to pay attention to. Linda,
get his information. Let me see if I can pass
