Sean Hannity digs into the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, joined by Washington Examiner’s Selena Zito, who was feet from the stage. Together, they analyze the shocking failures of the Secret Service and recount the terrifying moment Trump took a bullet and stood tall with blood on his face. Hannity continues his critique of the media, fake narratives, and political corruption, while humorously batting down AI-generated wedding photos and fake campaign rumors. With discussions on In-N-Out’s move from California to Tennessee and his team’s "Dancing with the Stars" potential, Hannity mixes heavy news with humor and heartfelt commentary.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Showing up next our final News Roundup and Information Overload hour.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
All right, News Roundup, Information Overload. Our toll free on
number is eight hundred and nine four one Sean. If
you want to be a part of the program is
you know, whenever you listen to President Trump, I think
he has forever tattooed the words fake and news into
the brands of fake news, CNN, msd NC, The New
(00:26):
York Times, The Washington Post, ABC, NBCCBS, which is why
in two thousand and seven I declared the journalism is dead,
and after this last election, I said that legacy media
is dead. And I was proven right because they threw
every lie, every conspiracy theory, every attack they could ever
(00:46):
think of, gave Kamala and Joe the you know, the
soft glove treatment the entire time Joe's president. They never
called out Joe's cognitive decline, They never called out the
open borders, They never told the truth about the economy,
and the American people have come to not only distrust them,
(01:06):
but they distrust them deeply, and they just totally negated
anything they reported or had to say about Trump and
the lead up to this last election. They have no
influence anymore. There are outlets. Thank god we have talk
radio still. Thank god we have Fox News and people
like me and some others that give fair opinion that
(01:29):
get you know this, I was telling us to Patrick
pet David today on his podcast. I said, you know,
there's a reason that it's not luck that I've got
Richard Jewel right, that I got Duke Lacrosse right, that
I got Uva right, that I got Freddie Graham Baltimore right,
that I got Ferguson Missouri right, that I got George
Zimmerman right. There's a reason we got the Russia hoax right,
(01:53):
with the reason we got Faiza Abuse right, the Ukrainian
you know, phony impeachment right, the fifty one form intell
officials right, and all these other other media outlets get
everything wrong. And sometimes that means I go a little
bit slower, you know, whenever I see people just like
racing to a conclusion. You know that usually, you know,
(02:16):
gives me reason to pause. And I've been a little hesitant.
The story about the Epstein files is, I just know,
instinctively is not done, as evidenced today by new information
that Maxwell is going to be interviewed by Pam BONDI
number one, that the grand jury testimony has been requested
(02:38):
to be released. And do I think that they believed
that there was more information that could be shared with
the public before they actually got to it.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But with all of that said, you know, Merrick Garland,
Joe Biden, his Justice Department, and all this information and
they never they never did anything with it, which tells
me now it doesn't have the stuff they that people
think might exist on Trump. But I think more people
are concerned about, oh, is there any information in there
about NOM pedophiles or associates with him. You have to
(03:10):
be careful with that too, because you know, this guy
seems like a guy that was, let's see, a star chaser.
I will say that very nicely, did I That was
done pretty eloquently when you say I would because he
wanted to be around very famous people and so he
put themselves in their orbit. You know, everybody seems to
(03:31):
forget that Donald Trump threw this guy out on his
ass twenty plus years ago from mar A Lago in
a pretty humiliating way. And if Donald Trump thought this
guy had anything on him, I kind of tend to
doubt that that would have gone down that way. But
with that said, you know what I said today on
this podcast it turned out to be exactly true, was
I got home and I'm like, oh, I'm going to
(03:52):
interview Gizelle in prison Maxwell, and so they're not hiding anything.
I just thought people rush the judgment all the time,
and if it means that I'm not going to be
first on a story, but I'm going to get the
story right, I'd rather be right. One story that I
knew from the beginning we were being lied to about
(04:14):
was what happened a little over now a year ago.
But just about it, we just passed a one year
mark the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. And I'll tell
you it was within one millimeter and Donald Trump loses
his life, he would have been assassinated. What's frustrating to
learn is that there was information available of a threat
(04:38):
to the president and well then candidate but former President
Trump Canada Trump ten days ahead of that incident. Kimberly Cheatle,
who was the Secret Service director at the time, tried
to make the claim, well, it's a slope roof, so
we didn't want the agents on a slope roof.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Should that roof have been secure period.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
That building in particular has a slope roof at its
highest point, and so you know, there's a safety factor
that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to
put somebody up on a slope roof, and so you know,
the decision was made to secure the building from inside.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Who is most responsible for this happening?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
What I would say is that the Secret Service is
responsible for the protection of the former president. So the
buck stops with you, the buck stops with me, I
am the director of the Secret Service.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Do you plan to stay on? Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I do plan to stay on.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
You know, I've spoken with several people who look at
the perimeter hearing that news, look at the perimeter and say, how,
knowing that there was a credible threat against the former president,
how could that perimeter be so small that it excluded
a building just one hundred and fifty yards away from
the podium.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
I can't get into the specifics of any threats, but obviously,
with all of our protectees, we're constantly monitoring the threats
that are out there, and we design our security plans
based on that. Also, depending on the venue and the
environment that we're in, and on that particular day, a
full advance had been completed. But this is also why
we are doing an internal review.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Was that perimeter too small?
Speaker 4 (06:05):
The perimeter encompassed the area that we needed to secure
for the event that we had on that day. What
happened is a terrible incident and should never happen, and
we are obviously going to make sure that moving forward,
we take whatever lessons that come out of this and
adjust accordingly.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Was every element, every part of his from the intelligence
to the counter assault team to the detail agents of
the shift agents, I mean, every element top to bottom
of the advance in the operation. Was every element increased
after you learned of this credible threat.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
What we increased was what we felt was appropriate for
the former president and for that particular event on that day.
We have been increasing the assets and the resources and
the staffing that we have been providing to the former
president since he was a presidential candidate and then the
presumptive nominated. That's what I can tell you.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
That sounds like enough.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
I am not saying I know at all. I'm saying
that we have continued to increase the resource that we've
been providing to the former president.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Did the Secret Service use any drones for surveillance that day.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
So again I'm not going to get into specifics of
that day in itself, but there are times during a
security plan that the Secret Service does deploy an asset.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
Like I said, there were reports that the shooter used
a drone just a few hours before the rally start time.
Is that accurate?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I have heard those same reports, and again am waiting
for the final report.
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Do you know If you can't answer the question, that's
your answer, But can you answer this?
Speaker 7 (07:34):
Do you know?
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Do you know? I'm not asking yes or no, but
do you know if the shooter used a drone before
the shooting?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
That information has been passed to us from the FBI.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
At any point Saturday. Did the Secret Service have an
agent on top of that roof?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Sir? I'm sure as you can imagine that we are
just nine days out from this incident and there's still
an ongoing investigation, and I want to make sure that
any information that we are providing for you.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Okay, okay, why did the Secret Service not can you
answer why the Secret Service didn't place a single agent
on the roof.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
We are still looking into the advanced process and the decisions.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
Okay, Okay, wasn't that building within the perimeter that should
be secured? Do we agree with that the.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Building was outside of the perimeter on the day of
the visit, But again, that is one of the things
that during the investigation we want to take a look
at and determine whether or not other decisions should have
been made.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Meanwhile, the roof where the one FBI agent it was
not a secret service agent took the shot that took
down there would be assassin was on a much steeper
slope roof than the one that Kimberly Cheatle claimed was
too steep for these guys to be on.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Now, I did roofing in my life.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I fell over for roof nearly three stories and busted
up my arm and my face pretty good. And long
story short, I know what a steep roof looks like this.
This is the type of roof. It's one of those
metal rus In the winter time, if you have you know,
sprayed it with a water hose. I mean, you could
skate on it and not be at risk of falling
(09:12):
off if you're not to skate. It was a ridiculous
argument she was making. Then then, you know, rather than
put people around the perimeter of that building, so nobody
can get on the roof of that building and have
a line shot line to the President Trump. You know,
they said, well we put the agents inside. Well what's
the point of putting agents on the inside. That's the
(09:32):
dumbest thing you could do. And we never got to
the bottom of it. But that harrowing day was you know,
we all will remember where we were when we saw this,
either in real time like I did, or whether you
know you saw it later. We all have seen this.
And when President Trump will never forget got up and
he had all that blood on his face, I just
(09:53):
thought he might drop because sometimes if you've ever been
out hunting, you can hit an animal and they'll go down,
but then they get up again, only to fall again.
And it's I was really concerned that they got his head,
and thank god they did not. But right next to
the president of that day was somebody, a reporter that
(10:14):
President Trump likes a lot. There was a great article
recently about Selena Zito. Trump hats the media. This is
the one journalist he loves. She is by far the best.
You know, she really knows not only the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
but she knows all of these states like Michigan and
Ohio and Wisconsin really really well, but Pennsylvania in particular. Anyway,
(10:35):
she wrote the definitive book on this, and she's now
a national political reporter for The Washington Examiner, and it's
called Butler, The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of
Donald Trump in the Fight for America's Heartland. Selena very
early on was one of the people telling me that
Donald Trump absolutely was going to win all three states
(10:58):
and you know the blue all of you well, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
and Michigan.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
First, congratulations on the book. We have a link on
Hannity dot comy you get it on Amazon, dot comments
and bookstores around the country. How close we were you
to the president that day? Because I spoke to you
shortly thereafter.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
Yeah, uh, that day after he was shot. First of all,
I wasn't supposed to be where I was standing. He
was also not supposed to be doing what he was doing,
and that led to conversations the next day with him
when he called me, when he talked about purpose and
the hand of God in that moment. But he never
(11:41):
has a chart and if he does, if he does,
it's on the other side. And it's at the end
of the event. They also never takes his gaze away
from the people attending to rally. He may turn his body.
He never turned his head, but he did both things.
And it was in that moment that the four shots
went out over my head. I saw him grab his ear,
(12:04):
I saw him go down. I saw the blood on
his face. But what I what I what, what I
knowed immediately was that he took himself down. So I
felt a little sensory relief in that moment. Time does
really stand stilled still during traumatic events, and it seemed
to happen in layers. The the secret services around him.
(12:29):
The next round of shots go again over my head
and and they keep him in a protective stance around
him until they get him off the stage. But I
think what's really important, Sean, and I think people don't
know enough about this what happened. After he calls me
the next morning, we talked space talk about purpose. But
(12:51):
I asked him and it helped me seven times. And
I asked him, sir, why did you say fight, fight, fight?
And said, well, Selena, And that moment, I wasn't Donald Trump,
the man I was representing everything that is strong about
this country, and I needed to show that we endure,
(13:12):
we go on, that that grit and that exceptionalism that
we are known for is standing steady. I had an
obligation to be that symbol. I was afraid that if
I wasn't, the people there might stampede, might run out,
or the people at home, and so as a president
(13:33):
or as a former president, I needed to show as
much strength as possible.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Well, I had that conversation with him, you know, shortly
thereafter as well, and you know, I was feverishly texting
everybody that I knew was there and around him, and
in a very short period of time I was told
he was okay, much sooner than anyone else. And I'm
pretty And then I went straight to the studios and
(14:01):
got on TV that day, and just like the day
the Trump International incident occurred, I went to breakfast with
Steve Whitkoff was now the Mid East Envoy, and he
was begging me to play golf with him and Trump
that day, and I'm like, I don't. I don't play
enough golf. You'll scratch golfers. It's going to suck for me.
And you know, within an hour, I got a phone call.
(14:22):
They tried to kill him and that's not what happened,
but shots went off. It was this one sharpshooter. But
they didn't even sweep what happened. I mean this, We
have to reform this. Selena Ziito, appreciate it. Thank you,
quick break right back. More of your phone calls coming up.
Eight hundred and nine four one Shawn is on number.
If you want to be a part of the program,
I'm twenty five until the top of the hour. Eight

They're sophisticated at doing horrible things. If only they would
put their focus and time and energy into something worthwhile. Anyway,

to Chris and Michigan. Chris, how are you glad you
called sir?
Speaker 9 (16:25):
Thanks a long time listening to your first time caller.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
What's going on? Glad you called?
Speaker 9 (16:31):
Yeah, I heard yesterday I something about you wanted to
run for president, and I didn't.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Say I wanted to run for president.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Linda said, there's a lot of chatter that I'm thinking
about running for president. I don't know where it came from.
You And you know, there's all over the internet right
now pictures of me at my wedding getting married. They
have pictures of me, you know, crying as as my bride.
(17:00):
It is singing to me it never happened. I have
my best friends calling me, well, you didn't have to
invite me, but you could have at least told me.
And I'm like, it didn't happen. It did not, It's
all AI generated. I have cake, you know, wedding cake
being shoved in my face. I have pictures of me
holding up you know, sonograms like I'm about to have
(17:21):
a baby or holding twins.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
I mean, Linda, have you seen all this garbage I have.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
I've answered the same questions like why don't you tell
me did you go? And I was like, yes, the
cake was amazing. It's de leash.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
You know how I feel about weddings. That's a different
story for a different day. But anyway, I don't even
I digress, Chris, So people are saying it. If they're
talking about it, why do you think I should or
shouldn't run?
Speaker 7 (17:46):
Well?
Speaker 9 (17:47):
Absolutely, I think you should. You and Bill you'd have
a heck of a team. But would you still yell
at Linda for drinking that green stuff for when she's
your president?
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Could you imagine Linda's press secretary? Be awesome?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
I don't want to be press secretary. I want to
be chief of staff. I'm going to fire everybody and
get this place.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
No, No, I couldn't handle it. I couldn't handle it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
I think I'm gonna put you like in the Department
of Education and another building.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
That's not fair.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
That would be well, Actually, she would love it, because
she's one of these, you know, tiger moms that goes
to the school board meetings and gives them hell. It
probably was investigated as a domestic terrorist. Man, God forbid
you open your mouth. What what job would you really
want one? That's a good question.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I want to be chief of staff. I want to
be the boss and tell everybody what to do. I
want to be you know, the Linda version of Susie Wiles. Right,
I'll take your silence as complete and utter agreeance, So
thank you for that vote of confidence.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
I'll take it.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
They would there would be a long list of dues
and don'ts that you would absolutely hate, and then.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Because I'm making the list, we're good to go. That's
what's the beauty to be in the boss.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
The chief of staff is not the boss.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
You're not the b Come on, we all know who's
handling the day to day. You're going to be out there,
you know, hobnobbing with the presidents and the prime ministers.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
And I'd be hands on, man, I'd be You'd be
like Trump.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
You'd be like Trump. You'd be in the you know,
the Oval office.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
And how you like Trump? You know why?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Because I talk to him at every hour, at different
hours of the day and night. I mean, there's not
an hour on the twenty four hour clock that I
have not had a conversation with him at some point,
not a single one.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
And who do you think the roost when he's on
the phone.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I think I think one of the reasons we became
close friends is because I'm like the last person standing
that he knows is awake.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
He kind of got stuck with me.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Well, he got stuck with you, and America got stuck
with Susie Wiles, and Susie Wiles is ruling the roost.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
She didn't. We didn't get stuck with Susie. She's she's
crushing it. Oh my god, a great job.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I was using your word. It meant nothing.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Oh all right, Well anyway, Chris, I do not have
any intentions of running for any office. I'm not sure
I could get elected dogcatcher, to be honest, but I am.
I am absolutely positively honored that anybody would think that
of me.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
But you know, we'll see what happens. I don't know.
You don't really think people mean this, do you, Linda?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I do, like I mean, honestly, it's nice to have
a disruptor, you know what else is nice? And I
really do feel this way. I was saying this the
other day to somebody. It would be nice to have
people in office that have done things other than public
office their entire life, ryan businesses, you know, maybe did
something with their hands, actually did something other than just
sitting in an office making rules that other people have
(20:42):
to follow. And you don't. It's a wonderful thing.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
One of the main things I would want to do
more than anything else, I would want to look out
for the people that make this country great. My platform
would be about hard working men and women in this country.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Exactly, the farmer, the truckers, the people that.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Are working in retail, the people they love.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
We are looking at some of these farms right now
and I'm watching. Thank god the administration is getting involved,
but places like Oregon and California and Washington and putting
in all these ridiculous rules making it absolutely impossible for
farmers to do their job. I'm like, hello, Brooke Rowlins,
we need help. People are getting killed out there. Thank
god we have an administration actually paying attention.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah, all right, let's get back to our busy phones.
Let us say hello to Chris and my free state
of Florida. What's up, Chris? How are you glad? You
called doing good?
Speaker 7 (21:36):
Mister Handy, You're doing good. I heard they got that
UFC event coming up at the White House. And what
do you think the odds are getting Don Junior to
call out Hunter Baden for running his mouth on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That would be that would be a great card. If
he won't do it, I'd do it.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Oh yeah, Trump versus Baden family honor. It would be.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Uh, I would be pretty cool. Never gonna happen, but
it would be very cool. I love the way you think.
I think that'd be a great card. That'd be that'd
be pretty awesome. You know the first call I got
on that you can guess by the way. Uh, but
the first call, take a guest, Chris who called me
(22:22):
that they wanted tickets.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Take a guess, Don.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Jiu No, Don Junior wouldn't need to call me. Uh, Linda,
you want to give a guest who in my life
wanted tickets for this?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I would say Glenn sense No.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
But that's a darn good guest. My son, Oh, I.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Just think he's like a guy.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Give me and Morgan go Dad. I'm like Dad, please, Dad, please?
You know what I give my son for? Like presents?
Like my son. It was Game seven. The Florida Panthers
were playing Toronto. It was a tough Toronto had a
good team this year and they they didn't play their
best in that series, but they won back to back
Stanley Cupps and it was a work day. The next
(23:09):
day and my son runs two businesses on his own
and we work together. And another one he goes, Dad,
I gotta me and my friends were going to Toronto.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
I'm like, what. He goes, Yeah, I'm gonna take a
day off. Is that okay?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I'm like, I mean, you make your own schedules, you
get the work done. And so he goes to Toronto
and then he comes back and he goes, it's a
hell hole up there, That's what he said to me.
But he went up there and the Panthers won and
they went back to back. Stanley cupps, I love my Panthers.
I love my Panthers, all right, Chris, appreciate it. It's
(23:42):
gonna be only you know what make America fun again.
I like that too, Greg And California, the United Socialist
utopia of Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
How are you? Avan doesn't like me like he used to.
I don't know why I'm doing good, Sean.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Good to talk to you again.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
What's going on? Good to talk to you.
Speaker 9 (24:00):
You had good news yesterday in and outs.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Leave in California.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Come in the East coast.
Speaker 7 (24:06):
You don't have to just come to a California more
to get the Burgers.
Speaker 9 (24:09):
You got to thank Newsome and the Democrats for that,
you know, because that's the only good thing for you.
That's the Democrats have do them every day.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So I had a conversation in the past with Lindsay Schneider,
who is the CEO of the company, very very nice woman,
and they had never planned to Well, first of all,
there's no franchises in and out Burger. I think it's
one of the best burgers I've ever had, that Burger
(24:41):
Crown Burger.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
There's a couple that I really really love, and I'm like, I.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Literally begged her to please come to Florida, and I
was I was turned down flat. He just said no,
we weren't planning on going to Tennessee. When she gave
the reason and why, I thought it was interesting. Here's
what she said in the podcast with Ali Beth Stuckey.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
We're building an office in Franklin, so I'm actually moving
out there. And how do you feel about that.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
You're like a California girl through right.
Speaker 10 (25:16):
Yeah, I mean, I really loved living in northern California
and I'm so thankful that I grew up up there.
Like you said, there's a lot of great things about California,
but raising a family is not easy here.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I mean, she basically is coming to the same conclusion.
They're going to build headquarters in Nashville, which is where
Franklin is, and she's moved to a great part of
the country. I have a lot of friends that live
in Tennessee, a lot of them, and it's a great state.
I think it may actually slightly edge out Florida in
(25:55):
terms of lowest taxes. They're really a good state, good people,
and it's got cool areas, got like Nashville and music row.
I mean, if you like music like I do, it's
it's a pretty awesome place. If you haven't been there,
it's fun. That's where we were actually on it. It
was in Vegas. It was John Rich's bar. When Linda's
weirdly started dancing by herself.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
It was very strange, such a weird and ridiculous rumor.
You consistently mistelled.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
That's not a rumor. Were you or were you not
dancing by yourself? I was crowd of people dancing.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
There wasnost you hear yourself was a dancing by myself.
First of all, you're always dancing by yourself unless you're
slow dancing, first of all.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Second of all, it's not like you were freestyling with
somebody on the other side. There were all these people
out on the dance floor dancing with all people, and
you're out there dancing. You were dancing by yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Listen, it's not my fault that people on our team
don't know how to shake it. I do.
Speaker 7 (26:54):
I want.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I don't know how to shake it. I desire to
shake it.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's right. I saw you. You and that wall were
doing very well to get that. You held it up nice.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
I like watching other people look stupid.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I did not look stupid. I look good. I went
out on the dance floort. It was amazing.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
There's nothing natural about dancing. And no guy, I don't
care nothing.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
No guy likes.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
A mystery to me, how could you you never hear
a song and just like, you know, tap your foot
or like really.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
No really not once? So no guy, not, no guy
likes who was the guy on every guys put it?
Actually like the dances that are really good.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
At it and they work hard at it.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
There's okay, you're full of crap. You were on stage
with Charlie Daniels and you were singing and dancing and
running across the stage, and there's I.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Want to make a deal, but he came across and he'll.
Speaker 7 (28:07):
Tell you what.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Player too?
Speaker 3 (28:15):
How you playing pretty Devils?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Due?
Speaker 8 (28:18):
I'll bet a puddle of gold.
Speaker 10 (28:19):
To guest your soul.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
And I think I'm better than you.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Baby, I'll take your event you'qui because I'm the best
has ever been?
Speaker 9 (28:32):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
What we done? And I did it on stage edition.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
In addition, and yes, he's amazing and we love him missing.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I did not dances when I did it. I ran
across the stage. I was thrown around football.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Were you you were shaking a little?
Speaker 9 (28:45):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I wasn't shaken.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Yeah, shake the audience. Mister Hannity on stage with mister
Charlie put.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
It up on Hannity dot com and both dancing.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Run on handity dot com.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Well you're doing I want to poll.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
No, and the pole question is going to be is
Sean dancing when he sings the Devil one Now to
Georgia or is he running?
Speaker 1 (29:09):
That's not a fair question because you don't know if
you lose. If you lose, do you have to go
on Dancing with the Stars, Yes, you do, that's.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
It, Okay, well, I mean, let me tell me. First
of all, they would never have me number one. I'd
have higher odds of running for dog catcher. And as
I said, I couldn't run.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
For That's the whole point of going on Dancing with
the Stars. You go on and then you learn how
to actually dance like you know, like professional. It's nice.
Get to move here.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
You know what I have. Tell me, no desire to
be a dancer.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
You do krapma, God, that takes a lot of coordination, problema.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
God is not dancing. It's breaking, punching, killing, you know,
destroying somebody in twenty to thirty seconds and it's all over.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
The dance is over.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Well anyways, I invite our audience to go to handiti
dot com. I'm putting this poll up right now and
I look forward to you all voting with me. Thank

Thank you for making this show possible.
Showing up next our final News Roundup and Information Overload hour.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
All right, News Roundup, Information Overload. Our toll free on
number is eight hundred and nine four one Sean. If
you want to be a part of the program is
you know, whenever you listen to President Trump, I think
he has forever tattooed the words fake and news into
the brands of fake news, CNN, msd NC, The New
(00:26):
York Times, The Washington Post, ABC, NBCCBS, which is why
in two thousand and seven I declared the journalism is dead,
and after this last election, I said that legacy media
is dead. And I was proven right because they threw
every lie, every conspiracy theory, every attack they could ever
(00:46):
think of, gave Kamala and Joe the you know, the
soft glove treatment the entire time Joe's president. They never
called out Joe's cognitive decline, They never called out the
open borders, They never told the truth about the economy,
and the American people have come to not only distrust them,
(01:06):
but they distrust them deeply, and they just totally negated
anything they reported or had to say about Trump and
the lead up to this last election. They have no
influence anymore. There are outlets. Thank god we have talk
radio still. Thank god we have Fox News and people
like me and some others that give fair opinion that
(01:29):
get you know this, I was telling us to Patrick
pet David today on his podcast. I said, you know,
there's a reason that it's not luck that I've got
Richard Jewel right, that I got Duke Lacrosse right, that
I got Uva right, that I got Freddie Graham Baltimore right,
that I got Ferguson Missouri right, that I got George
Zimmerman right. There's a reason we got the Russia hoax right,
(01:53):
with the reason we got Faiza Abuse right, the Ukrainian
you know, phony impeachment right, the fifty one form intell
officials right, and all these other other media outlets get
everything wrong. And sometimes that means I go a little
bit slower, you know, whenever I see people just like
racing to a conclusion. You know that usually, you know,
(02:16):
gives me reason to pause. And I've been a little hesitant.
The story about the Epstein files is, I just know,
instinctively is not done, as evidenced today by new information
that Maxwell is going to be interviewed by Pam BONDI
number one, that the grand jury testimony has been requested
(02:38):
to be released. And do I think that they believed
that there was more information that could be shared with
the public before they actually got to it.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
But with all of that said, you know, Merrick Garland,
Joe Biden, his Justice Department, and all this information and
they never they never did anything with it, which tells
me now it doesn't have the stuff they that people
think might exist on Trump. But I think more people
are concerned about, oh, is there any information in there
about NOM pedophiles or associates with him. You have to
(03:10):
be careful with that too, because you know, this guy
seems like a guy that was, let's see, a star chaser.
I will say that very nicely, did I That was
done pretty eloquently when you say I would because he
wanted to be around very famous people and so he
put themselves in their orbit. You know, everybody seems to
(03:31):
forget that Donald Trump threw this guy out on his
ass twenty plus years ago from mar A Lago in
a pretty humiliating way. And if Donald Trump thought this
guy had anything on him, I kind of tend to
doubt that that would have gone down that way. But
with that said, you know what I said today on
this podcast it turned out to be exactly true, was
I got home and I'm like, oh, I'm going to
(03:52):
interview Gizelle in prison Maxwell, and so they're not hiding anything.
I just thought people rush the judgment all the time,
and if it means that I'm not going to be
first on a story, but I'm going to get the
story right, I'd rather be right. One story that I
knew from the beginning we were being lied to about
(04:14):
was what happened a little over now a year ago.
But just about it, we just passed a one year
mark the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. And I'll tell
you it was within one millimeter and Donald Trump loses
his life, he would have been assassinated. What's frustrating to
learn is that there was information available of a threat
(04:38):
to the president and well then candidate but former President
Trump Canada Trump ten days ahead of that incident. Kimberly Cheatle,
who was the Secret Service director at the time, tried
to make the claim, well, it's a slope roof, so
we didn't want the agents on a slope roof.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Should that roof have been secure period.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
That building in particular has a slope roof at its
highest point, and so you know, there's a safety factor
that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to
put somebody up on a slope roof, and so you know,
the decision was made to secure the building from inside.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Who is most responsible for this happening?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
What I would say is that the Secret Service is
responsible for the protection of the former president. So the
buck stops with you, the buck stops with me, I
am the director of the Secret Service.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Do you plan to stay on? Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I do plan to stay on.
Speaker 5 (05:28):
You know, I've spoken with several people who look at
the perimeter hearing that news, look at the perimeter and say, how,
knowing that there was a credible threat against the former president,
how could that perimeter be so small that it excluded
a building just one hundred and fifty yards away from
the podium.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
I can't get into the specifics of any threats, but obviously,
with all of our protectees, we're constantly monitoring the threats
that are out there, and we design our security plans
based on that. Also, depending on the venue and the
environment that we're in, and on that particular day, a
full advance had been completed. But this is also why
we are doing an internal review.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Was that perimeter too small?
Speaker 4 (06:05):
The perimeter encompassed the area that we needed to secure
for the event that we had on that day. What
happened is a terrible incident and should never happen, and
we are obviously going to make sure that moving forward,
we take whatever lessons that come out of this and
adjust accordingly.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Was every element, every part of his from the intelligence
to the counter assault team to the detail agents of
the shift agents, I mean, every element top to bottom
of the advance in the operation. Was every element increased
after you learned of this credible threat.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
What we increased was what we felt was appropriate for
the former president and for that particular event on that day.
We have been increasing the assets and the resources and
the staffing that we have been providing to the former
president since he was a presidential candidate and then the
presumptive nominated. That's what I can tell you.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
That sounds like enough.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
I am not saying I know at all. I'm saying
that we have continued to increase the resource that we've
been providing to the former president.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Did the Secret Service use any drones for surveillance that day.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
So again I'm not going to get into specifics of
that day in itself, but there are times during a
security plan that the Secret Service does deploy an asset.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
Like I said, there were reports that the shooter used
a drone just a few hours before the rally start time.
Is that accurate?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I have heard those same reports, and again am waiting
for the final report.
Speaker 6 (07:28):
Do you know If you can't answer the question, that's
your answer, But can you answer this?
Speaker 7 (07:34):
Do you know?
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Do you know? I'm not asking yes or no, but
do you know if the shooter used a drone before
the shooting?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
That information has been passed to us from the FBI.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
At any point Saturday. Did the Secret Service have an
agent on top of that roof?
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Sir? I'm sure as you can imagine that we are
just nine days out from this incident and there's still
an ongoing investigation, and I want to make sure that
any information that we are providing for you.
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Okay, okay, why did the Secret Service not can you
answer why the Secret Service didn't place a single agent
on the roof.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
We are still looking into the advanced process and the decisions.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
Okay, Okay, wasn't that building within the perimeter that should
be secured? Do we agree with that the.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Building was outside of the perimeter on the day of
the visit, But again, that is one of the things
that during the investigation we want to take a look
at and determine whether or not other decisions should have
been made.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Meanwhile, the roof where the one FBI agent it was
not a secret service agent took the shot that took
down there would be assassin was on a much steeper
slope roof than the one that Kimberly Cheatle claimed was
too steep for these guys to be on.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Now, I did roofing in my life.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
I fell over for roof nearly three stories and busted
up my arm and my face pretty good. And long
story short, I know what a steep roof looks like this.
This is the type of roof. It's one of those
metal rus In the winter time, if you have you know,
sprayed it with a water hose. I mean, you could
skate on it and not be at risk of falling
(09:12):
off if you're not to skate. It was a ridiculous
argument she was making. Then then, you know, rather than
put people around the perimeter of that building, so nobody
can get on the roof of that building and have
a line shot line to the President Trump. You know,
they said, well we put the agents inside. Well what's
the point of putting agents on the inside. That's the
(09:32):
dumbest thing you could do. And we never got to
the bottom of it. But that harrowing day was you know,
we all will remember where we were when we saw this,
either in real time like I did, or whether you
know you saw it later. We all have seen this.
And when President Trump will never forget got up and
he had all that blood on his face, I just
(09:53):
thought he might drop because sometimes if you've ever been
out hunting, you can hit an animal and they'll go down,
but then they get up again, only to fall again.
And it's I was really concerned that they got his head,
and thank god they did not. But right next to
the president of that day was somebody, a reporter that
(10:14):
President Trump likes a lot. There was a great article
recently about Selena Zito. Trump hats the media. This is
the one journalist he loves. She is by far the best.
You know, she really knows not only the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
but she knows all of these states like Michigan and
Ohio and Wisconsin really really well, but Pennsylvania in particular. Anyway,
(10:35):
she wrote the definitive book on this, and she's now
a national political reporter for The Washington Examiner, and it's
called Butler, The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of
Donald Trump in the Fight for America's Heartland. Selena very
early on was one of the people telling me that
Donald Trump absolutely was going to win all three states
(10:58):
and you know the blue all of you well, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
and Michigan.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
First, congratulations on the book. We have a link on
Hannity dot comy you get it on Amazon, dot comments
and bookstores around the country. How close we were you
to the president that day? Because I spoke to you
shortly thereafter.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
Yeah, uh, that day after he was shot. First of all,
I wasn't supposed to be where I was standing. He
was also not supposed to be doing what he was doing,
and that led to conversations the next day with him
when he called me, when he talked about purpose and
the hand of God in that moment. But he never
(11:41):
has a chart and if he does, if he does,
it's on the other side. And it's at the end
of the event. They also never takes his gaze away
from the people attending to rally. He may turn his body.
He never turned his head, but he did both things.
And it was in that moment that the four shots
went out over my head. I saw him grab his ear,
(12:04):
I saw him go down. I saw the blood on
his face. But what I what I what, what I
knowed immediately was that he took himself down. So I
felt a little sensory relief in that moment. Time does
really stand stilled still during traumatic events, and it seemed
to happen in layers. The the secret services around him.
(12:29):
The next round of shots go again over my head
and and they keep him in a protective stance around
him until they get him off the stage. But I
think what's really important, Sean, and I think people don't
know enough about this what happened. After he calls me
the next morning, we talked space talk about purpose. But
(12:51):
I asked him and it helped me seven times. And
I asked him, sir, why did you say fight, fight, fight?
And said, well, Selena, And that moment, I wasn't Donald Trump,
the man I was representing everything that is strong about
this country, and I needed to show that we endure,
(13:12):
we go on, that that grit and that exceptionalism that
we are known for is standing steady. I had an
obligation to be that symbol. I was afraid that if
I wasn't, the people there might stampede, might run out,
or the people at home, and so as a president
(13:33):
or as a former president, I needed to show as
much strength as possible.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Well, I had that conversation with him, you know, shortly
thereafter as well, and you know, I was feverishly texting
everybody that I knew was there and around him, and
in a very short period of time I was told
he was okay, much sooner than anyone else. And I'm
pretty And then I went straight to the studios and
(14:01):
got on TV that day, and just like the day
the Trump International incident occurred, I went to breakfast with
Steve Whitkoff was now the Mid East Envoy, and he
was begging me to play golf with him and Trump
that day, and I'm like, I don't. I don't play
enough golf. You'll scratch golfers. It's going to suck for me.
And you know, within an hour, I got a phone call.
(14:22):
They tried to kill him and that's not what happened,
but shots went off. It was this one sharpshooter. But
they didn't even sweep what happened. I mean this, We
have to reform this. Selena Ziito, appreciate it. Thank you,
quick break right back. More of your phone calls coming up.
Eight hundred and nine four one Shawn is on number.
If you want to be a part of the program,
I'm twenty five until the top of the hour. Eight

let's get to our busy, busy telephones. Let's say hi
to Chris and Michigan. Chris, how are you glad you
called sir?
Speaker 9 (16:25):
Thanks a long time listening to your first time caller.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
What's going on? Glad you called?
Speaker 9 (16:31):
Yeah, I heard yesterday I something about you wanted to
run for president, and I didn't.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Say I wanted to run for president.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Linda said, there's a lot of chatter that I'm thinking
about running for president. I don't know where it came from.
You And you know, there's all over the internet right
now pictures of me at my wedding getting married. They
have pictures of me, you know, crying as as my bride.
(17:00):
It is singing to me it never happened. I have
my best friends calling me, well, you didn't have to
invite me, but you could have at least told me.
And I'm like, it didn't happen. It did not, It's
all AI generated. I have cake, you know, wedding cake
being shoved in my face. I have pictures of me
holding up you know, sonograms like I'm about to have
(17:21):
a baby or holding twins.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
I mean, Linda, have you seen all this garbage I have.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
I've answered the same questions like why don't you tell
me did you go? And I was like, yes, the
cake was amazing. It's de leash.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
You know how I feel about weddings. That's a different
story for a different day. But anyway, I don't even
I digress, Chris, So people are saying it. If they're
talking about it, why do you think I should or
shouldn't run?
Speaker 7 (17:46):
Well?
Speaker 9 (17:47):
Absolutely, I think you should. You and Bill you'd have
a heck of a team. But would you still yell
at Linda for drinking that green stuff for when she's
your president?
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Could you imagine Linda's press secretary? Be awesome?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
I don't want to be press secretary. I want to
be chief of staff. I'm going to fire everybody and
get this place.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
No, No, I couldn't handle it. I couldn't handle it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
I think I'm gonna put you like in the Department
of Education and another building.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
That's not fair.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
That would be well, Actually, she would love it, because
she's one of these, you know, tiger moms that goes
to the school board meetings and gives them hell. It
probably was investigated as a domestic terrorist. Man, God forbid
you open your mouth. What what job would you really
want one? That's a good question.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I want to be chief of staff. I want to
be the boss and tell everybody what to do. I
want to be you know, the Linda version of Susie Wiles. Right,
I'll take your silence as complete and utter agreeance, So
thank you for that vote of confidence.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
I'll take it.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
They would there would be a long list of dues
and don'ts that you would absolutely hate, and then.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Because I'm making the list, we're good to go. That's
what's the beauty to be in the boss.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
The chief of staff is not the boss.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
You're not the b Come on, we all know who's
handling the day to day. You're going to be out there,
you know, hobnobbing with the presidents and the prime ministers.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
And I'd be hands on, man, I'd be You'd be
like Trump.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
You'd be like Trump. You'd be in the you know,
the Oval office.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
And how you like Trump? You know why?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Because I talk to him at every hour, at different
hours of the day and night. I mean, there's not
an hour on the twenty four hour clock that I
have not had a conversation with him at some point,
not a single one.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
And who do you think the roost when he's on
the phone.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I think I think one of the reasons we became
close friends is because I'm like the last person standing
that he knows is awake.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
He kind of got stuck with me.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Well, he got stuck with you, and America got stuck
with Susie Wiles, and Susie Wiles is ruling the roost.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
She didn't. We didn't get stuck with Susie. She's she's
crushing it. Oh my god, a great job.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I was using your word. It meant nothing.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Oh all right, Well anyway, Chris, I do not have
any intentions of running for any office. I'm not sure
I could get elected dogcatcher, to be honest, but I am.
I am absolutely positively honored that anybody would think that
of me.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
But you know, we'll see what happens. I don't know.
You don't really think people mean this, do you, Linda?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I do, like I mean, honestly, it's nice to have
a disruptor, you know what else is nice? And I
really do feel this way. I was saying this the
other day to somebody. It would be nice to have
people in office that have done things other than public
office their entire life, ryan businesses, you know, maybe did
something with their hands, actually did something other than just
sitting in an office making rules that other people have
(20:42):
to follow. And you don't. It's a wonderful thing.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
One of the main things I would want to do
more than anything else, I would want to look out
for the people that make this country great. My platform
would be about hard working men and women in this country.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Exactly, the farmer, the truckers, the people that.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Are working in retail, the people they love.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
We are looking at some of these farms right now
and I'm watching. Thank god the administration is getting involved,
but places like Oregon and California and Washington and putting
in all these ridiculous rules making it absolutely impossible for
farmers to do their job. I'm like, hello, Brooke Rowlins,
we need help. People are getting killed out there. Thank
god we have an administration actually paying attention.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah, all right, let's get back to our busy phones.
Let us say hello to Chris and my free state
of Florida. What's up, Chris? How are you glad? You
called doing good?
Speaker 7 (21:36):
Mister Handy, You're doing good. I heard they got that
UFC event coming up at the White House. And what
do you think the odds are getting Don Junior to
call out Hunter Baden for running his mouth on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
That would be that would be a great card. If
he won't do it, I'd do it.
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Oh yeah, Trump versus Baden family honor. It would be.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Uh, I would be pretty cool. Never gonna happen, but
it would be very cool. I love the way you think.
I think that'd be a great card. That'd be that'd
be pretty awesome. You know the first call I got
on that you can guess by the way. Uh, but
the first call, take a guest, Chris who called me
(22:22):
that they wanted tickets.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Take a guess, Don.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Jiu No, Don Junior wouldn't need to call me. Uh, Linda,
you want to give a guest who in my life
wanted tickets for this?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I would say Glenn sense No.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
But that's a darn good guest. My son, Oh, I.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Just think he's like a guy.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Give me and Morgan go Dad. I'm like Dad, please, Dad, please?
You know what I give my son for? Like presents?
Like my son. It was Game seven. The Florida Panthers
were playing Toronto. It was a tough Toronto had a
good team this year and they they didn't play their
best in that series, but they won back to back
Stanley Cupps and it was a work day. The next
(23:09):
day and my son runs two businesses on his own
and we work together. And another one he goes, Dad,
I gotta me and my friends were going to Toronto.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
I'm like, what. He goes, Yeah, I'm gonna take a
day off. Is that okay?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I'm like, I mean, you make your own schedules, you
get the work done. And so he goes to Toronto
and then he comes back and he goes, it's a
hell hole up there, That's what he said to me.
But he went up there and the Panthers won and
they went back to back. Stanley cupps, I love my Panthers.
I love my Panthers, all right, Chris, appreciate it. It's
(23:42):
gonna be only you know what make America fun again.
I like that too, Greg And California, the United Socialist
utopia of Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
How are you? Avan doesn't like me like he used to.
I don't know why I'm doing good, Sean.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Good to talk to you again.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
What's going on? Good to talk to you.
Speaker 9 (24:00):
You had good news yesterday in and outs.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Leave in California.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Come in the East coast.
Speaker 7 (24:06):
You don't have to just come to a California more
to get the Burgers.
Speaker 9 (24:09):
You got to thank Newsome and the Democrats for that,
you know, because that's the only good thing for you.
That's the Democrats have do them every day.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
So I had a conversation in the past with Lindsay Schneider,
who is the CEO of the company, very very nice woman,
and they had never planned to Well, first of all,
there's no franchises in and out Burger. I think it's
one of the best burgers I've ever had, that Burger
(24:41):
Crown Burger.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
There's a couple that I really really love, and I'm like, I.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Literally begged her to please come to Florida, and I
was I was turned down flat. He just said no,
we weren't planning on going to Tennessee. When she gave
the reason and why, I thought it was interesting. Here's
what she said in the podcast with Ali Beth Stuckey.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
We're building an office in Franklin, so I'm actually moving
out there. And how do you feel about that.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
You're like a California girl through right.
Speaker 10 (25:16):
Yeah, I mean, I really loved living in northern California
and I'm so thankful that I grew up up there.
Like you said, there's a lot of great things about California,
but raising a family is not easy here.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I mean, she basically is coming to the same conclusion.
They're going to build headquarters in Nashville, which is where
Franklin is, and she's moved to a great part of
the country. I have a lot of friends that live
in Tennessee, a lot of them, and it's a great state.
I think it may actually slightly edge out Florida in
(25:55):
terms of lowest taxes. They're really a good state, good people,
and it's got cool areas, got like Nashville and music row.
I mean, if you like music like I do, it's
it's a pretty awesome place. If you haven't been there,
it's fun. That's where we were actually on it. It
was in Vegas. It was John Rich's bar. When Linda's
weirdly started dancing by herself.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
It was very strange, such a weird and ridiculous rumor.
You consistently mistelled.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
That's not a rumor. Were you or were you not
dancing by yourself? I was crowd of people dancing.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
There wasnost you hear yourself was a dancing by myself.
First of all, you're always dancing by yourself unless you're
slow dancing, first of all.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Second of all, it's not like you were freestyling with
somebody on the other side. There were all these people
out on the dance floor dancing with all people, and
you're out there dancing. You were dancing by yourself.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Listen, it's not my fault that people on our team
don't know how to shake it. I do.
Speaker 7 (26:54):
I want.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I don't know how to shake it. I desire to
shake it.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's right. I saw you. You and that wall were
doing very well to get that. You held it up nice.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
I like watching other people look stupid.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I did not look stupid. I look good. I went
out on the dance floort. It was amazing.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
There's nothing natural about dancing. And no guy, I don't
care nothing.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
No guy likes.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
A mystery to me, how could you you never hear
a song and just like, you know, tap your foot
or like really.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
No really not once? So no guy, not, no guy
likes who was the guy on every guys put it?
Actually like the dances that are really good.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
At it and they work hard at it.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
There's okay, you're full of crap. You were on stage
with Charlie Daniels and you were singing and dancing and
running across the stage, and there's I.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Want to make a deal, but he came across and he'll.
Speaker 7 (28:07):
Tell you what.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Player too?
Speaker 3 (28:15):
How you playing pretty Devils?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Due?
Speaker 8 (28:18):
I'll bet a puddle of gold.
Speaker 10 (28:19):
To guest your soul.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
And I think I'm better than you.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Baby, I'll take your event you'qui because I'm the best
has ever been?
Speaker 9 (28:32):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
What we done? And I did it on stage edition.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
In addition, and yes, he's amazing and we love him missing.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
I did not dances when I did it. I ran
across the stage. I was thrown around football.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Were you you were shaking a little?
Speaker 9 (28:45):
No?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I wasn't shaken.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Yeah, shake the audience. Mister Hannity on stage with mister
Charlie put.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
It up on Hannity dot com and both dancing.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Run on handity dot com.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Well you're doing I want to poll.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
No, and the pole question is going to be is
Sean dancing when he sings the Devil one Now to
Georgia or is he running?
Speaker 1 (29:09):
That's not a fair question because you don't know if
you lose. If you lose, do you have to go
on Dancing with the Stars, Yes, you do, that's.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
It, Okay, well, I mean, let me tell me. First
of all, they would never have me number one. I'd
have higher odds of running for dog catcher. And as
I said, I couldn't run.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
For That's the whole point of going on Dancing with
the Stars. You go on and then you learn how
to actually dance like you know, like professional. It's nice.
Get to move here.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
You know what I have. Tell me, no desire to
be a dancer.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
You do krapma, God, that takes a lot of coordination, problema.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
God is not dancing. It's breaking, punching, killing, you know,
destroying somebody in twenty to thirty seconds and it's all over.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
The dance is over.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Well anyways, I invite our audience to go to handiti
dot com. I'm putting this poll up right now and
I look forward to you all voting with me. Thank
you very much.

vote with what Linda. No, Linda is see how you're starting.
