Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, glad you with us toll free eight hundred
nine for one Sean Tolfree telephone number. Mitch McConnell laying
out the groundwork just moments ago about how the now
sixteen hours of long questioning is gonna go. Then they'll
have the battle the over witnesses, which I have a
lot to weigh in on. Mitch McConnell earlier today the

(00:22):
Hill reporting that I guess reminding some of the wobbly week.
Oh what do I do? I don't want my constituents
to be me mad at me? Why would they? Why
any Republican senator whatever lend legitimacy to this schumership show.
I mean, it was a it was a knockdown, brutal

(00:44):
takedown end of fight in the two hours they did Saturday.
I mean between Seculo and Cipoloni and Pam Bandi on
the Bidens and Dershowitz on the Constitution and on Bolton,
it's just every question is answered. This was so frustrating

(01:04):
to me watching all of this, this shift show. How
is it even possible we are here? How is this possible?
Especially knowing all that we know? It Really it shouldn't
be all the discussion, bombshell, bombshell, we put a montage together. Now,

(01:28):
I've had montages put together of every single solitary year.
I won't play them all now because it had taken
an hour of every report, everybody in the mob, in
the media bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, Stormy bombshell, Russia bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, bombshell,

(01:49):
And now we have just the bombshells about John Bolton.
But remember, okay, these facts never change. It doesn't matter
whether or not John Bolton is going to say whatever.
The New York Times secret anonymous sources telling us he's

(02:10):
gonna say that his lawyer won't confirm about well, I
think the President said that he wanted to withhold money
from Ukraine until they investigated the bidens and until they
did this, this, this, this, and this. Let's say Bolton
is telling the truth. Well, let's say he says it,
Let's say he writes about it, and let's say it's true.

(02:31):
Let's just take that for a second. All right, now,
I would imagine I'm pretty fairly well it could be disputed.
Normal person, in the course of your day, how many
thoughts cross your head. How many times do you think
something even bad about somebody? How many times maybe in
your life, have you ever said I'm gonna kill that person? Uh? Okay,

(02:52):
but you don't. You don't kill that person. I mean
you've committed murder. Nope, it didn't. You thought about it,
maybe maybe even serious, which would be probably you need help,
the idea. We have the transcripts. There's two of them,
but the main one the July twenty fifth phone call
with the President and President Zalinsky of Ukraine. We have it.

(03:16):
The President willingly released it. On the phone call. They
never discussed any aid. Now, both Zalinski, the foreign minister,
the President, and the other three hundred and fifty thousand
people that the President knew was on the call, well,
they have said there was no pushing. We have the transcript.
It shows there was no pushing, no pressure, no linkage,

(03:39):
no quid or pro or quo like Joe, none whatsoever.
Don't if you do this or say you'd do this,
I'll give you this security assistance dollars. That never happened.
Nobody even says it happens. That's why, that's why the
compromise corrupt congenital liar made up a new transcript. You know,
the Ukrainians didn't even know at the time that aid

(04:02):
was being delayed temporarily. The president talked on that call
about corruption and that the new president was seemed to
be hanging out with some of the corrupt people from
the last administration in Ukraine, Pershenko's administration anyway. So but
they didn't even know. Now they got the aid, and

(04:22):
some of it even they got early. They got the
aid money early. Did the Ukrainians take any action as
it relates to any investigation into the bidens? Nope? Did
they promise to take any action as it relates to
an investigation into the bidens? Nope? Did they ever take

(04:45):
although we have evidence Ukraine independently separate an apart from Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia,
you know, did they ever start an investigation into that? Nope?
Did they ever promise to start an investigation? Nope. They
took no action, They promised no action, they announced no action.
So let's say the president, let's give bolted. If it's

(05:09):
true in the manuscript from the anonymous source, maybe it's
one of those lucky moments that the New York Times
gets right after two and a half years. They actually
got one thing right that the dirty Clinton bought and
paid for Russian dossier was likely Russian misinformation from the
get go. That would be to hurt Trump. Those facts

(05:29):
never changed. They did nothing and they got the money.
They never pledged to do anything, they got the money.
One fact witness actually asked the president, what do you want?
Specifically nothing, no quitt or pro or quo. It never changes,
It doesn't change. Is that all of this noise, It

(05:50):
comes down to that facts, truth matter. But you wouldn't
know it if you watch. You're corrupt and they are
so corrupt, and I mean the medium mob in this country.
Everything to them regarding Donald Trump is a bombshell. Now,
what did I say last week? I said, you know

(06:11):
the reason I feel pretty good. We're now two hundred
and eighty days away before we hear from the ultimate jury.
The ultimate jury is you, we the American people. You
in two hundred and eighty days. By the way earlier,
and if you want to know when early voting starts
an absentee voting and registration, you need to do it.
Go to Hannity dot com. It's it's an informational map

(06:32):
for you. We put up there for your benefit so
that you can participate in two hundred and eighty days.
But you know we now you get to shock the
world again, and I kind of I don't know what's
gonna happen. Joe Scarborough thinks people like me you're living
in a bubble. Maybe he's right. Maybe I'll say, Joe,
you are right. I was living in a bubble. I
guess because I think Trump. Oh, I'm kind of suspicious

(06:55):
all the time. It's hard for Republicans to win. You
gotta get North Carolina, you gotta get Ohio, Flora, you
got you gotta kind of run the table. I gotta
pick off Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan. Maybe Minnesota would be in
play this year. You gotta get Florida. You know, you
got to pick up Arizona. We're looking for Nevada, We're
looking for New Mexico, New Hampshire. Oh. I would like

(07:17):
to think all these these states are in play. I'd
like to think that the record breaking economy and all
the foreign policy success would be fine. So I think
that the president, Yeah, are you better off than you
were four years ago? Looking looking pretty darn good by
every measure. President keep his word. Well, he kept every
promise he said, every single one of them. I've run

(07:37):
the checklist over on this programming on TV constantly. Nobody
else does it. I'll I guess I'll have to keep
doing it. And the next thing. Okay, now did the president?
Has the President lost any of the support that he
had from twenty sixteen? Nope. I don't really see any
attrition at all. You know what I see angry you know,

(08:00):
Walmart buying Trump supporters, That's what I see. And they're
more energized than ever. Now. The president took the extra
what thirteen million more Americans on food stamps. Eight of
them are now off of food stamps. Wow, after eight
years of Biden Obama, that's a pretty good success rate.
Millions out of poverty. But you know, we have eight

(08:22):
million more Americans and poverty under Biden Obama. You know,
millions off of food stamps. Good. We have nearly eight
million new jobs. We have the president making trade deals everywhere,
even with China two hundred and twenty billion. So I'm thinking, yeah,
he has a good shot at maybe getting some of
the people that were left behind in the Biden Obama year.

(08:43):
So I think it looks as good as it can.
But I'm suspicious. I'm irish. I always think the next
thing's gonna drop on my head. But I will tell
you we live in strange touts. Let me just play
the mop bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, Listen some of the other
headlines that we have to cover this morning for you
at twelve minutes past the hour. All right, So President

(09:04):
Trump is denying a bombshell report the claims they told
former National security advisor John Bolton to continue freezing aid
Ukraine until they launched the political investigations he wanted from
bombshell revelations from former national security advisor John Bolton. The
president's own supporters on Capitol Hill scrambling trying to figure

(09:25):
out exactly how to move forward now that this John
Bolton bombshell has just absolutely shaken Washington a seismic shock,
did Capitol Hill like a thunderbolt bombshell. Former National Security
advisor John Bolton ready to turn on the President as
news leaks from his explosive new book about what he
claims really happened with Ukraine. And I feel like with

(09:46):
the Bolton testimony of a bombshell about the manuscript, an
explosive report just out, and it could be a bombshell,
an explosive new account from former National security advisor John
Bolton that could undercut the President. I can't take it anymore.
Bombshell to death. I've got three years of bombshell, bombshell, bombshell,
manufacturer crisis, Stormy, Stormy, stormy. You know, Russia, Russia, Russia

(10:10):
and Peach and Peach and Peach just never ends. They
don't even get new words. I don't even know why
after watching this absolute knockout beat down, anybody can compare this,
and it frustrates me because they want to drag this
out as long as they can. We all know the
net result of all of this, and the worst part

(10:33):
of it to me is the breath taking hypocrisy. It
is sick, it is deranged. It is ugly in its
lack of adherence to common sense, reason, truth, intellectual honesty,
and that is, Yeah, you're not getting the billion unless
you fire the prosecutor who's investigating my zero experienced son,

(10:56):
who's getting paid eighty three thousand dollars a month, million
millions of dollars, and that's a month. While the average
American is making less than fifty four thousand dollars a year.
I think this is a beat down for Biden. Biden's
going to pay a price for this. And then Republicans,
a few of them that are stupid enough to want
to take on the constitutional role of this of the House.

(11:19):
That's not their job. McConnell telling having to tell colleagues today.
I'll have a chance to ask questions later in the week,
and then we'll talk about the issue of witnesses good.
I want hunter zero experience, hunter quid pro quo joe.
I want the compromise congenital liar shift, and I want
the non whistle blower here or say whistle blower. And

(11:41):
I want the people that heard him talking about taking
down Donald Trump in week two of his presidency. How's
that now? At some point this is all going to
go away? Now there is even CNN had to promote
the fact that the National Association for Business Economics, they
said yesterday years of a recession have abated. Businesses are

(12:04):
competent about the health of the US economy. Sixty seven
percent of respondence to a survey expect America's GDP to
continue growing, while thirty percent expected to be even higher
than three percent. In October, only twenty percent thought that
was possible. Even the Washington Post their impeachment Shock poll

(12:25):
finds that Trump is in better shape after the impeachment started.
Whoopsie days. He sounds like a backlash to me. And
if you want, can the gallop pole? Well, Americans haven't
been this satisfied with the direction of their country in
nearly fifteen years. Sixty eight percent of Americans satisfied with
the economy, sixty eight percent satisfied with the nations security

(12:49):
from terrorism, eighty one percent Americans satisfied with the nation's
military strength preparedness. Satisfaction with race relations and the position
of African Americans other racial minorities in the country have
both increased since Trump took office. Wow, that's why I
guess Trump is better position than ever Defeat the Democrats

(13:11):
in November. That's why they got to you know, bloody
them up this way and take the country and drag
the country down down the sewer where they are. This
is what's raiding a swamp looks like. And if you
missed over there fake news CNN, Oh, we got a
doozy for you. If you think irredeemable deplorables and bitter

(13:32):
Americans clinging to God and Heaven above our Creator and
our Constitution and our Bibles and religion was bad and irredeemable.
Flora plorables is bad. And you think smelly Walmart Trump
supporters is bad. Oh, we got a new one. Because
all of it comes down to they and the swamp
and the sewer. They think they're smarter than us. They

(13:54):
have nothing but contempt for the people that make this
country great, which is where I was going and got
the drafted. I'm gonna tell you something. This is your
moment two eighty. It's your moment you own. This is
you'll You'll get the government you deserve. That's all I
can say. I hope you shocked the world again. I can't.

(14:14):
I have no idea what's going to happen. Nobody does.
Anyone tells you they do, they're lying. Let me give
you a preview of this as I went long in
the last segment and have to news coming up. Let's
listen to CNN don Lemon laughing. Let's listen to how
they talk about the American people. Of course, it's it's
a it's she's just trying to demean her, and obviously

(14:35):
it's false. And look, he also knows deep in his
heart that Donald Trump couldn't find your crane in a
map if you had the letter you and a picture
of an actual physical crane next to it. He knows
that this is, you know, an administration defined by ignorance
of the world. And so that's partly him playing to
their bass and playing to their audience. Uh, you know,
the credulous boomer Rube demo that backs Donald Trump, that

(15:00):
wants to think that that that dal Trumpe's a smart one.
And there y'all, y'all elite us for you will you
wilde us with your geography and your maps and you're
spelling even though my bath you're reading, Yeah, you're reading.
You know your geography, knowing other countries, sipping your latte,
all those lines on the map, only they will lead

(15:25):
us know where Ukraine is. Sorry, I apologize, but oh
my god, but you but it was Rick's fault. I
blame Rick, but at all. Honestly, I'll get back to this.
On the other side. Oh, there's the compromise. Corrupt congenital

(15:46):
lias apioning John Bolton would have tied us up in
court for a long time. Well, still can tie you
up in court for a long time. There you go,
not much you can do, but I go back. You know,
this is what it's frustrating. It doesn't matter if John
Bolton says, well, the President was clear. He was talking
about it in the White House, in the Oval Office.

(16:07):
He said he wanted it with a whole date until
they did a B and C. Okay, did the Ukrainians
ever feel that pressure? Nope, they've said so many times.
Zolenski even went as far to say, what the hell
is going on with you people over there? And this
is bizarre to them? And so those are the people

(16:27):
on the call. They never felt pressure, they never felt pushing,
they never saw any linkage of any kind, and they've
been clear, maybe we need to call Zolensky. President, Zolenski,
will you come and join us for the Schumer shift
sham show for a couple of days and just reiterate
everything you've already said on the record. Nikrannians didn't They

(16:48):
didn't even know that they had been a hold on it.
President was concerned rightly over what he's concerned over corruption
and said so on the Cone never talked about AID,
but he did talk about corruption. Now, they got their money,
even their money early, they took no action. They never
started an investigation. Even more importantly, they never promised to

(17:11):
start an investigation. And maybe even more important than that
is they never announced an investigation. And they got all
of their money. And then they had five subsequent meetings,
including with the Vice president I think one was with Pompey,
I mean the highest level with Zelinski. At no time
did they ever talk about AID being contingent upon any actions. Now,

(17:36):
why is it important to call zero experience, hunter and
quid pro quo joe, because well, the President did mention
them on the call. He also mentioned, well, Ukrainian election interference,
and I've been reading a lot about it. He's probably
referring to a people who have told them of regards
to Ukrainian court. You know, the Ukrainian court said Ukraine

(17:58):
interfered in our twenty sixteen election on behalf of Hillary.
Perhaps he was also familiar with the January eleven, twenty seventeen,
political article that was an investigative report. It takes you know,
they when you print out something on the internet, it
says how long it takes to read twenty two minutes.
It says, it'll take the average person to read their

(18:19):
investigative report that chronicles Ukrainian election interference, and that does not,
by the way, in any way shape, matter of form.
Is that a conspiracy theory by conservative saying it wasn't Russia,
it was Ukraine. They're saying it was Ukraine, not Russian. No,
we're not. Devin Nunez was right. Russia, he warned, would

(18:41):
interfere in the twenty sixteen election. Even the New York
Times with their unsourced hearsay, you know, Maggie Haberman piece.
I mean, there's such hacks over the New York Times.
I mean, maybe they're right this time. Would they'd be lucky?
I have no idea what's in John Bolton's head. I
don't really care. I've been bited John Bolton to be
on this show by to John Bolton to be on TV.

(19:04):
John Bolton, you want to talk, come on my show. No.
John Bolton a long time, always had a good relationship
with him. I know from people that I've talked to
of my sources that John Bolton didn't get along with
Mick mulvaney, didn't get along with Mike Pompeo and John
Bolton was very unhappy that he was let go by
the President. That part I know, okay, But if the

(19:26):
d J and Pompeo and mulvaney all contradict whatever it
is the New York Times is suggesting may or may
not be in some manuscript to John Bolton's well, who
are you gonna go with? Well, then a jury would say, Oh,
that's called conflicting testimony, and that means it wouldn't go anywhere.

(19:47):
In the end, nobody seems to care. This is who
they are. This defines them, doesn't matter how good things are,
doesn't matter, doesn't matter. The quid pro Joe quo Joe
and zero experience Hunter. Now for the President, why did
he mention them? Because Joe's on tape ragging about shaking
down the country of Ukraine using taxpayer dollars and doing

(20:10):
it so that a prosecutor will be fired investigating his
son being paid millions eighty three thousand dollars a month
while the average American is making less than fifty four
thousand a year. And that and the President's wow, the
stuff about Joe and Hunter. Wow, he didn't say to
investigate them. He didn't say, do us a favor, get

(20:32):
to the bottom of any election interference, which, by the way,
is another legitimate thing. And I guess I was one
of the few that have been saying all along, yeah,
we really need to know understand, a president's role is
to faithfully execute the laws of the land. Now, the
president will always say the call, it was perfect, It's
a perfect call. Okay. I don't know if there's such

(20:54):
a thing as a perfect call, but I see nothing
wrong with the call, nothing at all. Matter of fact,
I think now in many ways, the Democrats, dumb as
they are, that have done nothing for three years except hey,
Trump may have done the country a favor because now
the country when they listened to quit pro quo Joe,

(21:16):
and they hear the devastating case laid out about the Bidens,
and they realize how much money Hunter was making. And
we'll have Peter Schweitzer back his new book Profiles in Corruption,
Abuse of Power by America's progressive elite. And there are
five separate Biden family members they're getting rich off of
access to Joe. Wow, I think that might be room

(21:39):
for an investigation. Now's the media going to do that. No. Now,
let me get back to this whole fake news CNN issue.
I guess it's Don Lemon's show. I met Don Lemon,
you know, occasionally, same circles in terms of and I
go out very infrequently. I mean, I am a hermit.

(22:00):
I'm focused on my jobs. That's what I do. Anyway,
he far left op ed writers. Some guy name whatever,
I can't even pronounce his name, anti established Republican. I
guess this was what's his name? Yeah, Rick Wilson, who
was John McCain's guy. I'm pretty sure if I remember correctly.

(22:20):
It's amazing all the McCain people, Nicole Wallace, Steve Schmidt.
I got along with all of them. I have no
problem with any of them. Hey, I get it they
don't like Donald Trump. But how they can support all
this madness, I don't know. I guess people like being
on television is my theory or my guests, I would
probably explain liberal Joe. I don't have a problem with
liberal Joe either, And I don't care that they don't

(22:42):
like me any of them. It doesn't matter to me.
I don't need to be liked by them. I would
prefer to do these show that they don't do, and
that is not spread lies, hoaxes, conspiracy theories, propaganda, misinformation,
and being basically nothing but an extension of the Press

(23:02):
Office of all things radical, extreme democratic, socialist, and of
course at Trump every second of every day. Now, I
mentioned Obama that you know, these bitter Pennsylvanians that cling
to the their God, that's a pretty pretty awful thing
to say. I mean, I would think praying to God,

(23:24):
believing in your creator, believing that there is the majesty
of creation, and you know our founding document that we're
endowed by our Creator. All rights come from him, their
god given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I think that's within the American tradition. One nation under God,
that's us. That's what I always thought. And by the way,

(23:45):
doesn't have to be one religion. We believe in religious freedom.
But more important then, of course we get some other
insight irredeemable deplorables. But clinging to God, guns, our Constitution,
our Bibles, and religion, Wow, sounds like m for conservatives
or Governor Cuomo in New York. I don't have a
problem really with Governor Cuomo. I totally disagree with his

(24:07):
socialist policies. I think he is pushing people out of
New York every day, to the detriment of New Yorkers.
But that's my thoughts. I'm not running for governor. I
couldn't win the governorship in New York. And then you
got let's see irredeemable deplorables, and then the Peter Struck
leads the page. I can smell them from here. Trump supporters,
smelly Walmart shoppers. Wow. But this takes the cake because

(24:32):
listen to how they discuss the American people. And let
me tell you what's at the bottom of all things Trump.
It's not just Donald Trump. They hate. They hate we,
the people that elected him. There's a contempt. There is
an elitism. There is a disconnect that is so deep.

(24:55):
You know, we're always lectured by the left that we
should be inclusive in everything, but when it comes to
you know, ripping conservatives to shreds and those people that
do all the working and building and paying of taxes
and raising their kids and obeying the laws and voting
for Donald Trump. By the way, there's like, how many

(25:17):
hundreds of thousands of people signed up to get in
the New Jersey rally tonight, do Jersey Donald Trump getting
You know, as of like day one, they had one
hundred thousand people sign up. Well, I saw lines on
social media day They're massive. Never seen anything like he
should have moved into the meadow lands, they would have
been able to fill up five times over. Now, listen

(25:37):
to fake news CNN. This is this you know. Unfortunately,
I would argue, is how a lot of the media establishment,
this is the New York DC, San Francisco, La leftist,
elitist mentality establishment sounds like the swamp creatures. In other words, listen,
of course it's it's it's she's just trying to demean
her and obviously it's false. And look, he also knows

(26:00):
deep in his heart that Donald Trump couldn't find ukrane
in a map if you had the letter you and
a picture of an actual physical crane next to it.
He knows that this is, you know, an administration defined
by ignorance of the world. And so that's partly him
playing to their bass and playing to their audience. Uh,
you know, the credulous boomer rube demo that backs Donald Trump,

(26:21):
um that wants to think that that that Donald Trump's
a smart one in there. Y'all, y'all elite us or them,
you will you elade us with your geography and your maps,
and you're spelling even though my math. You're reading, Yeah,
you're reading, you know, your geography, knowing other countries set

(26:42):
all those lines on the map. Only they wilde us
know where Ukraine is. Sorry, I apologize, but oh my god,
but you know, but it was Rick's fault. I blame
ric but at all, honestly, but sorry, hold on, hold on,

(27:06):
hold on hold, No, it's good. Sorry, that was a
good one. I needed that fake news CNN, the Roub
demo and you know, our old damn people's is and
all that stuff, and you know, reading a map and

(27:27):
no lines on the map and geography, na Melitas said,
the only ones know what Ukraine is. Pretty breathtaking, isn't it? Now,
don Lemon, It's not his first rodeo. I mean, let's
listen to some of the greatest tits of him. He
has given oxygen to racists. He is clearly trying to
ignite a civil war in this country. This president constantly

(27:48):
denigrates people of color and women too. Let us not
mince word. Let me not mince words here. This president
traffics in racism and is fueled by bullying. What I
saw was a menstrual show today, straight out of a
dictator's playbook. For anyone out there, any of you attempting
to defend what he did, you're an enabler. He apparently

(28:10):
doesn't care about you, or America or the dignity of
the office. How many times will you look the other way?
How can you look at yourselves in the mirror? How
can you? So we have to stop demonizing people and
realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men,
most of them radicalize to the right, and we have

(28:32):
to start doing something about them. There is no travel
band on them, There is no ban on you know,
they had the Muslim band. There is no white guy band.
So what do we do about that? No white guy band,
whatever that means. I'll just let it stay say, I'll
let it speak for itself. I just don't even have

(28:54):
words for it at this point. And I guess all
the brilliance of these liberal leftist commentators. Did they get
Russia right? No? Did they lie for three years? Yeah?
Did they lie to the Did they ever investigate Hillary

(29:17):
Espionage Act? Real obstruction of justice. They ever get into
FISA abuse and the dirty Russian dossier she paid for
even the New York Times likely Russian disinformation or the
fact that news last week. Yeah, the Department of Justice
saying that those FISA warrants were wrongly obtained, and they

(29:38):
they premeditated fraught on the FISA court or the top
people in our justice and FBI, not the nine we
have spying on a president. How deep we'll find out
soon enough, deeper than what we know now. I'll tell
you that likely using allied nations for the purpose of

(30:00):
outsourcing intelligence gathering to circumvent American they get any of that, right, No,
they loved Obama. How is Obama's economy? How is Obama's
foreign policy? There's you know, so smart Biden Obama. Yeah,
we're gonna give up one hundred and fifty billion dollars
to Mullah's and Iran the chant death to America and
hope they like us or Bill Clinton trying to bribe

(30:23):
Kim Jong Ill, Kim Jong Gun's father. There's a good
dale American people, Noah's and it was a disaster. We
have Republican senators that want to lend legitimacy to this. Okay,
bring in Bolton, I don't care, bring in Pompeio. I
guess spring in Mulvaney, but then bring in Hunter, and
then bring in Joe, and then bring in the congenital liars,

(30:47):
compromise Schiff, and then bring in Schiff's staff, and then
bring in the hearsay whistle blower, and then bring in
the people that heard the hearsay whistle blower. According to
a report, talk about eliminating and getting rid of Trump
two week into the administration with another Obama holdover. Let's
do it all, all right, we got Jim Jordan, we
got Jordan Seculo. Peter Schweitzer is going to do a

(31:09):
deep dive for us, even deeper on how corrupt these
liberal elitists are. Some of the other headlines that we
have to cover this morning for you at twelve minutes
past the hour. All right, So President Trump is denying
a bombshell report the claims that he told former national
security advisor John Bolton to continue freezing aid Ukraine until
all they launched the political investigations he wanted. From bombshell

(31:33):
revelations from former national security advisor John Bolton, the President's
own supporters on Capitol Hill scrambling trying to figure out
exactly how to move forward now that this John Bolton
bombshell has just absolutely shaken Washington as seismic shock did
Capitol Hill like a thunderbolt. Bombshell. Former National security advisor

(31:53):
John Bolton ready to turn on the President as news
leaks from his explosive new book about what he claims
really happened with Ukraine. And I feel like with the
Bolton testimony of this bombshell about the manuscript, an explosive
report just out and it could be a bombshell, an
explosive new account from former National security advisor John Bolton

(32:14):
that could undercut the President's case bombshelling the impeachment trial
of President Trump. The studying new report about John Bolton
directly contradicts Trump's defense net bombshell report, upending the impeachment
trial of President Trump. Bolton's bombshell, a startling new report
could upend the impeachment trial of Bolton drops the bombshell
in an unpublished manuscript for his forthcoming book. Unpublished manuscript

(32:38):
from John Bolton that has just turned President Trump's world
upside down seems to me the meaning of the John
Bolton absolute bombshell. Nobody expected this last night. I was
shocked when I saw it. Joining us now is Mike Schmidt,
who broke this story for The New York Times tonight,
as well as last night's bombshell. The Senate impeachment trial
enters its second week with the president's lawyer's continue their defense,

(33:01):
but when a bombshell revelation finally seal the deal on
calling witnesses to the trial, to John Bolton bombshell may
undermine a key Trump legal defense that there was no
evidence that Trump withheld aid from Ukraine an exchange for
launching the investigation into his rival. By the way, Nancy
Pelosi looks very smart for delaying walking over those articles
so that more journalists could do their jobs. The Bolton

(33:23):
bombshell is not the last. We know that he is
trying to get the Republicans to hold back, not to
say publicly we want witnesses. He wants us to go away.
Perhaps he was totally blindsided. I'm told he had no
idea this was coming. On Sunday night. A bombshell new
report in the New York Times could undermine one of

(33:43):
the core defenses. What are you picking up in Republican
circles about that bombshell in the New York Times. I
think this is a game changer. Can they ever once
think of their own words to use when a cut
manufactor cries a Russia or Russia rush store, armis to
army and peach and it's it's just rewind. Let me

(34:05):
just say up front, it does not undermine the president's defense,
not even remotely undermine the president's defense. Well, if in
fact the President said it, let's just assume who knows,
because it's a manuscript that even the New York Times
is telling everybody, Well, it's an anonymous hearsay, sous sources. Whatever.

(34:28):
It doesn't matter, does it, because well we have the transcript.
They never talked about AID, never talked about acquitter or
pro or quote. The same people on the call. Z
Lensky said it over and over and over again, and
we have the transcript. He said, never any pushing, never
any pressure, never any linkage between security assistance dollars and

(34:53):
either the announcement or some investigation in Ukraine. Never Ukrainian
didn't know at the time of the call the AID
had been held and more importantly, Now, did the Ukrainians
take any action? Nope? Did they ever started investigation nope?
Did they ever promised to start an investigation if they

(35:15):
were given aid, nope? Did they ever announced an investigation nope.
Did they get their money yep. And there were five
meetings after the call, high level VP, Secretary Pompeo, all
Ad Zelinski, all these ambassadors, hearsay witnesses. Yeah, no, they
never discussed money once. The only fact witness to actually

(35:38):
talk to the president about what if he wants from Ukraine. Nothing,
no quit or pro quote. So their bombshell bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, bombshell,
it means nothing. Well, let me say, you know, I
think I'm gonna rob this jewelry store because I think
I can get a lot of money. I'm thinking about it.

(35:59):
I'm thinking about it. I'm even telling my friends. I
think if I, if I, if I end up robbing
this jewelry store, I'm gonna get rich. Okay, but I
never do it, did I? Okay? Any crime thinking is
thinking of crime. We think all sorts of things. I
don't think. So that's what they're trying to convince you.
The same exact people that have been wrong for three years,

(36:23):
the same people that have perpetuated lies, propaganda, misinformation, conspiracy theories,
hoax the same three people, the same people that even
like shift lied about the dirty dossier of Hillary Clinton,
and that being the bulk of information, information and defies

(36:44):
applications that we now know even the DOJ is admitting
were yeah illegal. I mean, the same people that missed
the biggest story of their lives and got everything else wrong.
The same people that wake up every second, every minute,
every conscious, if you can even call it conscious, conscious

(37:06):
hour of every day hating Donald Trump. The same exact
cast of characters and the mob and the media, and
of course you know, led by the biggest liar of
them all, the compromised congenital liar, Adam Schiff. By the way,
Mitch McConnell, after the defense team wrapped up their arguments,
he laid out what's going to happen over the next

(37:27):
couple of days of the trial, sixteen hours of questioning
eight hours each side. Went on to describe the process,
saying the questions alternate between the majority and minority sides
for up to eight hours on Wednesday and Thursday. McConnell
reminded senators that their questions must be in writing and
will be submitted to the Chief Justice John Roberts. During

(37:48):
the question period of the Clinton trial, Senator is worth
thoughtful and brief with their questions, and the managers and
counsel were succinct in their answers. I hope we can
follow both of those. Example was during this time Jordan's
seculo uh, part of the president's defense team, joins us, Now,
how are you, Jordan's seculo? What's going on? We're doing good? Well,

(38:12):
tell me what's going on? Well, let me let me
just say, I think that today what you heard was
a very as as you just use the words to saint,
I mean to use it again, a succinc uh close
to our opening if you will, we do get a
closing statement, but for our opening um instead, I think
with the Chief Justice said, we still have eleven and

(38:32):
a half hours or something like that left when we
started today, and I think we used about two um
maybe maybe a little bit more because there's a break,
because I don't know if that doesn't actually come Agayeah.
Thankfully we didn't use all twenty whatever four hours. Thank god,
I need to We didn't need to because as we
said today and we took we kind of summed it
all up that this it's just it's not impeachable to offense.

(38:57):
We played Nadler's saying that, we played lost Grin saying that,
so two of the House managers saying that on the
floor of the House, we played Marquis who is now
as US Senator, he was on the floor of the House.
Then Bob Anendez, a US Senator, and of course the
minority leader, Democrat Chuck Schumer saying that you can never

(39:18):
have a partisan impeachment. Right off the top, this this
should be, that, this should be, this should fail because
partisan impeachment alone is a danger, as my dad said, danger, danger,
danger to our constitutional republic. And I think, as Pat
Sippoloni said, it's a republic if they and he was

(39:41):
talking about um, you know, these House movements, but also
the Senate if they let us keep it. Because if
this is the new standard, every future president will be
impeached because of policy differences by a different majority in
the House. You if they face a majority party in

(40:02):
the House, which most do at sometime in their presidency,
that they will be impeached over policy differences. And as
Alan Dershwood said, and I think this was a great line.
You know, we could use abusive power all we want.
But if you don't, say like abusive power and here's
the crimes from the abuse of power, abusive power should
be left into politics. You know, you know you're you're

(40:23):
abusing the power. And that's something that the American people
get to decide. Hey, is this guy going too far
with his power? Um? Is he abusing it? Is it?
Is it? So? Even though he might have it, do
we want it to be using it this way? Do
we want someone who's more tempered, more different tone, whatever,
live up to May ask you a question because that's
when they tried to litigate here when when Obama said

(40:45):
to men, but of tem Vladimir putinahr more flexibility after
the election? Um, would he now under the new rules
be impeached? Because I think he would be. And I
also think that if you really want to quit in
a pro and a quote, which is why if they're
gonna bring witnesses, I want zero experience. Hunter played paid

(41:05):
millions eighty three thousand a month, while the average American
is making less than fifty four grand a year. I
want him to explain how a zero experience that they
paid the zero Experience guy all that money, and that
his father used a billion taxpayer dollars to shake down
Ukraine and you got six hours and you're not getting

(41:26):
the billion unless you fire the prosecut I mean, I
want to hear from him, and I want to hear
from the congenital liar and his staff, and I want
to hear from the hearsay a non whistle blower, whistle
blower and what that person may have said two weeks
into the Trump administration. I think that's one of the
big issues here. You know, we're going to have these
two days of questioning, and let me tell you, if

(41:47):
this is the first time Adam Shifts going to face questions, yeah,
this could be very interesting. Is the first time Adam
Schiff is going to have to answer questions about his
staffs contact with the whistle blower that he admitted to
ultimately after first and ying it, He's gonna have to answer. Tad,
There's no way that question is not going to be asked.
I like that. Let me ask you this, then he's

(42:08):
gonna he's gonna have to answer. He's always been in
charge and for the beginning of this, you know, it
was just him speaking. We couldn't object. This wasn't like
a normal kind of opening statement technically, so he got
to say whatever you want, you know, Despares the president
makeup make up laws went, I don't have a lot
of time. I want to ask you this. Your father
did a great job, Pat said, Maloney did a great job.

(42:28):
Dershowitz did a great job. Pam BONDI did a great job.
I want to go to the constitutional issue. Dershowitz says
about Bolton. Uh No, nothing in Bolton's book would be
an impeachable effect. It's part of the way foreign policy
has been operated by president since the beginning of time.
The claim that foreign policy decisions can be deemed as

(42:51):
abusive power, you know, is ridiculous. He basically went on
to say, then he said, if any president, and then
he went on to say nothing about Bolton, even if true. Now,
if I think Jordan about robbing a store, I think
about it, but I don't do it because the president
he got nothing. They got all their money, they got

(43:12):
a lot of it early, and then just you know,
they never promised anything, They never did anything. So tell
me where we haven't. Why are we even here, We
shouldn't be here. It's all politics. It's why it's a
partisan impeachment. And it's why we had Kinstar and Alan
Dursh who it's agreeing with each other on this that
when you have this completely partisan impeachment, you have no
actual crime alleged, nothing even close to a criminal countis

(43:36):
of no crime, completely partisan and very lack of process
and due process, which is a right in the Constitution.
Then when you put all those three together, they should
wait very heavily against voting for these articles. And as
Alan Jersh would said, take all this all you wanted
the New York Times, Okay, say this is said that

(43:56):
he would actually testify to all that. You know, all right,
I'm gonna have to run, but give everybody on your team.
I thought it was a wonderful. I thought everybody did
a great job on your team, including your dad. You
should be proud of your dad and you yourself. By

(44:17):
the way, the President announced a new plan for Israel
and the Palestinian people, talo to America's dealing with China,
going to Davos, Oh getting trade deals with Mexico and China.
Hundred thousand. I think a couple one hundred thousand now
signed up. The lines are massive in New Jersey. You

(44:39):
know how many people showed up at a Biden event
of seventy five in Wildwood, New Jersey. Seventy five And
you can read about all this on Hannity dot com.
Biden invites Michelle Obama to be his running mate. Oh okay,
and meanwhile, what do we it's a tale of two Americas. Anyone,
by the way, to remember why John Bolton actually resigned,

(45:02):
you know, so upset about the president in Ukraine? Why
didn't Why didn't he resign over it ended up not
being able to get along. I don't know why. I
always liked John, had never had a problem with John Bolton.
You know, I have no idea if any of this
is true. But he resigned a month after President's phone call.
But a lot of it I think had to do
with the fact that President was going to hit Iran

(45:24):
and at the last minute stopped. According to my sources,
that was a big part of it. And but some
thing's never change in all of this. By the way,
we now have I mean, not only do we have
the issue of you know, this guy can't even get
a hundred people to show up, meaning Joe Biden, you know,

(45:45):
quid pro quote Joe. Now, the DNC seems to be
stacking the deck against Bernie again, now Bernie's co chair.
If the DNC believes they're gonna get away in twenty
twenty what they did with twenty sixteen, they have another
thing coming. You've got let's see where is it? I
have it here somewhere. Oh. The Republicans, by the way,

(46:06):
now had a record raise off year record of sixty
eight million raced, and Kevin McCarthy said an all time
annual fundraising record. As the GOP now moves to take
back the House, that would be pretty good. And then
you got all the infighting going on in the Democratic
primary that starts next Monday. They're trying and everyone thinks

(46:26):
that they're trying to screw Bernie again because Bernie now
has overtaken Biden for the first time in New Hampshire
and in Iowa, Chris Matthews is now suggesting Bernie wouldn't
stop his car to help an injured person. I guess
it's all group think with everybody. Even Obama apparently thinks
Bernie's unfit and must be stopped, all right, Jim Jordan
when we get back. It's been over six weeks since

(46:49):
Inspector General Horowitz released his report detailing the FBI's illegal
surveillance of President Donald Trump's campaign back in twenty sixteen.
Six weeks since the Inspector General published his findings that
the FBI illegally spied on then candidate Trump. We know
it was illegal spying because the Justice Department admitted it.

(47:10):
Just last week, the FBI admitted that they didn't have
evidence for at least two warrants on the Trump campaign.
Inspector General Horowitz, we are glad that you're here, But
for the life of me, I can't imagine why this committee,
the committee that has direct jurisdiction over the Inspector Generals,
would not call you to testify about the serious FBI
abuses that you uncovered. It's been six weeks since you

(47:30):
published your four hundred plus page report about the FBI
abusing defies the court to spy on the Trump campaign,
and our chair has still yet not invited you to speak.
Think about what the FBI did. They went to a
secret court to get a search warrant to spy on
the presidential campaign in America. They did it. This is
what defies the judge Rosemany Collier said just last month

(47:51):
December seventeen, twenty nineteen. Quote The frequency with which representations
made by FBI personnel turned out to be unsupported or
contradicted by information in their possession and with which they
withheld information detrimental to their case calls into question whether
information contained and other FBI applications is reliable. Put that

(48:14):
in plain English. You guys screwed up so much, how
can we trust any other representation you've made to the court.
That's what the FISA court judge said last week in
response to mister Horowitz's four hundred plus page report. Think
about what was going on here. The FBI's basis and
asking the court to spind the Trump campaign was quote
unsupported or contradicted by information in their possession. The FBI

(48:38):
had evidence that members of the Trump team were innocent,
and they held that back from the court. Remember they
got the initial application and the initial warrant, and then
they did three renewals. Didn't tell the court important information
in those renewal applications. The report is so unbelievable. You
could not even make some of this stuff up for
a TV TV show. No American suspects things like this occur,

(48:59):
and f lawyer fabricated an email to support a warrant
on the Trump campaign. The FBI was doing this in
a president to a presidential candidate. Think about what they
could do to regular Americans. And that's why Judge Collier
ordered the FBI to begin reviewing other applications. And we
still have not had a PISA hearing, either here or
maybe more importantly, in the Judiciary Committee. Chairman Nadler is

(49:20):
yet to call a hearing. It's the whistleblower hearing. It's
important issue that I'm looking forward to discussing. But I
will also take this opportunity, as I said, in order
to ask a few questions about Inspector General Horwitz, his
findings and his report. The chair told us order this
month that the Inspector General has already testified before the
Senate and that his presence before our committee is unnecessary.
Since when did the Oversight Committee say, oh, if the

(49:43):
Senate's doing it, we don't have to have a hearing.
I have never heard that my thirteen years in Congress,
never heard that. And imagine if it was reversed. Imagine
if Inspector General Horwitz uncovered the FBI fabricating emails to
spy on candidate Clinton bets to the Democrat, I would
be having hearings in this committee. We'd already had several
both in this committee, in the Judiciary Committee. That was

(50:07):
Congressman Jim Jordan. He's part of the Congressional Advisory team
of the President. By the way, this was what you
just heard. Part of the House Subcommittee for Oversight today
was able to question the Inspector General Michael Horowitz, and
this is his first interview since that hearing. Now this
is on the heels of the Department of Justice in

(50:28):
what was a pretty unprecedented way last week admitting everything
that we had been reporting, premeditated broad and a buys
A court identifying puys A renewal applications three and four
as absolutely unjustified. Congressman Jim Jordan is with us. How
are you, sir. I'm good, So I'm going to be

(50:49):
with you. Thank you, By the way, for a couple
of years. Think about what we went through for a
couple of years, and finally Horowitz's report comes out and
vindicates everything you've been saying for two plus, here's about
what the fbidea that that's really what this is all about.
It we were right, Adam Ship was wrong with his
memo that he put out and said everything was fine,
that's what this is really about. Well, yeah, I agree

(51:11):
with that. I want to get into all of this
in a second here, but you know, and it's so funny.
I was watching everyone and I was playing I played
a montage in the last hour bombshell, bombshell, bombshell, bombshell.
But talking about John Bolton, yeah, I mean, if I
thought about Robin a jewelry store or a convenience store
or whatever I'm thinking of, I tell my friends, I
think we're gonna rob this convenience store. I don't like

(51:32):
the owner of that convenience store, which is stupid. But
let's say I did that, but I don't do that.
If the President invented and said, you know, these people
need to be investigating these things. Okay, let's say that
the President said that. Let's say John Bolton is telling
the truth that he said that, although everyone else seems
to contradict it, and we don't even know if any
of it's true or in the manuscript because nobody's seen it,

(51:55):
and even the New York Times is citing anonymous again
hearsay sources, which is more insanity. That doesn't change the
four facts that will never change, not the least of which,
even if the President said it, the Ukrainians didn't know
at the time that anybody was held back. They got
a lot of it early, and they took no action,
never started an investigation. They had never promised to start

(52:16):
an investigation, they never announced an investigation. They got all
their money. So what does it matter if the president
said it, which is in dispute. No, you're exactly right, Sean.
What someone told the New York Times, but about what
John Bolton's manuscript supposedly says doesn't change the underlying facts

(52:37):
doesn't change what happened. And you're exactly right if the
President said, I don't know that he did, because look
this is like you said, again, just more heresafe. It
doesn't change the facts. They're all on the President's side.
And I thought the White House team, I thought they
did a great job. But I thought they did a
phenomenal job. The constitutional case, the legal case end up factual,
the evidence, the factual case all are on the president side,

(53:00):
and that's why that's why I think you're seeing Republicans
stick together and hopefully we're going to get this thing
over with this week. Okay, I'd like to see that,
But then I watch guys like Mitt Romnie. I'm gonna
tell you something how I feel about Mitt Romney. I've
always liked Mitt Romney. I've liked his family. I liked
I got to know his wife, love A wonderful guy.
And you know what, I went all in. I knew

(53:21):
he'd be a better president than Obama. I think I
was proven right. It was the right person to vote
for it. He was the candidate that won. Fine, But
it seems like I don't understand this. When people lose elections,
they get something like a switch in their brain goes off.
Because ever since then, everything that he said he would
do as president, from judges and taxes and regulation and

(53:45):
go right on down the line is what Donald Trump
is doing. I get it. Maybe it doesn't like Donald
Trump's New York style. I grew up in New York.
I'm kind of used to that style. Doesn't bother me
so much. It's not the first it's not my first rodeo,
you know, haven't dealing with combative people or fighters. I
like fighters. You used to be a wrestler. And then oh,

(54:05):
I think now we need Bolton. Why would any senator,
Republican senator, if their constitutional roles to try the case,
ever take on the sole role of the House, which
is to do the impeachment, which they did, and they're
presenting their case. Yeah, now I think about what the
Democrats are saying. The witness count in the House was
seventeen to zero. Adam Schiff called all the witnesses, he

(54:27):
issued the sapeen. We didn't get a sapoena anyone. We
didn't get a call any of our witnesses. It was
seventeen to zero. And now you have people saying, the
Democrats saying, oh, we want to make it eighteen to zero.
We wanted to make it seventeen to zero in the House,
and now we're not going to call any of those
seventeen witnesses. We want to call an additional witness and
make an eighteen to zero. That is completely ridiculous. The
American people understand that they have seen the case put

(54:50):
on by the president's team. They understand the factual case,
They understand the legal case, they understand the constitutional case,
and all those arguments are strongly on the President's side.
So let's get this over with and then let's get
about doing the things that that we told American people
were going to do. Continue to deliver on all those
things President Trump said he would do. That he's already
got done. Let's keep doing more, as he said, let's

(55:10):
keep winning. I agree. And what makes you think now,
if we're going to open the stupid door of witnesses, okay,
then I really want to hear from You're not getting
the billion unless you fire the prosecutor investigating my zero
experienced son being paid millions eighty three thousand a month

(55:31):
to be exact, less than the fifty four and the
average American makes less than fifty four thousand a year.
I think that would mean that the president had a
right to be like, what the hell is going on here?
And then because we had the tape of Joe bragging
about it, we just had the two year anniversary last week,
January twentieth. YEA, I would like to hear from them.

(55:52):
I'd like to hear from the congenital liar. I'd like
to hear from the hearsay non whistleblower. Whistleblower apparently two
weeks into the Trump administration was talking about getting rid
of them. Yeah, yeah, I'd like to hear from a
lot of folks. And you're right, if we're going to
go down this road, I've said it all along. I
don't think we should. But if they go down this road,
if you're gonna bring witnesses in, you got to go

(56:12):
all the way down. You've got to bring in the bidens.
You got to bring in the whistleblower. I want to
hear from the whistle blower. I've always wanted to hear
from the whistle blower about initially told us he wanted
to hear from the whistle blower and then suddenly changed
his mind when it would discover his deaf and met
with the whistleblower prior to him going to the Inspector General.
So I want to hear from from a Look. I
hope they don't go to witnesses. I hope they just
vote to a quit, which everyone knows is the right move.

(56:34):
But if they go down this road, I want to
hear from the whistleblowers and and, like you say, the
bidens and potentially Adam Schiff who who was part of
the part of the record as well. Okay, let's go
back to these hearings with Horowitz, because everything that guys
like you and Devin and Mark Meadows and Matt Gates
and John Radcliffe. I'm not going to remember everybody, all

(56:55):
my ensembled team of everybody that we the people know who,
I'll forget somebody, So I don't want to offend anybody.
But everything we reported was right. Everything the mob and
the media reported was wrong. Everything Shift told us for
three years was a lie. And it's the same people
interestingly doing a Ukrainian thing. What did Horowitz say and
where is this going? What did you learn today? Well,

(57:19):
the keys go back two years ago, go back to
January of twenty eighteen, when Devin puts out his memo,
and remember what the left said. Remember what the demo.
Oh that's terrible, it's wrong, it's not accurate. Turnout, everything
Chairman nun has sided in that memo was exactly right.
The only thing we got wrong is it was worse
than worse than we thought. But remember a few weeks
after that, Chairman now Chairman Shift put out his memo

(57:40):
and he said this at the start of his memo.
The FPI and DJ officials did not abuse the five process,
and they did not omit material information that was such
a false statement, because Horwitz told us last month they
liked seventeen times in the five in the Carter page
five applicition, seventeen specific, but fifty two subsections of the

(58:02):
live right fifty some more seventeen that they said these
were so egregious, we're going to single out these seventeen,
but fifty some more in total. So that's how bad
it was. They even had one of the FBI lawyers
change an email that was the basis for what they
didn't put into their application to go to the court,
and he changed it from saying was a source too,

(58:23):
was not a source. So a hundred day degrees change,
not a little subtle change, one hundred eighty degrees opposite
that they took to the court. That's how crip. They
didn't tell the court that Christopher Steele, I've seen the
document for Christopher Steele told Bruce or Yeah, he was
desperate to stop Trump. They didn't tell the court that
even though they had that information, they didn't didn't tell
the court that Clinton Campaig paid for all this dossier stuff.

(58:43):
So that's how bad it was. And then nudest memo
two years ago this month was one hundred percent right.
And Adam ship put on the memo contradictoring it, saying
it wasn't right. And his memo was the one that
was actually telling the falsehoods all right, So did we
get anything else? Now? What about Horowitz was contradicted by
John Durham and by the Attorney General, and as much
as they didn't agree with some of some of his findings.

(59:06):
And by the way, let's give let's give a little
room to breathe for the Inspector General Horowitz because he's
limited in his scope of investigation. He's only allowed, if
I'm not mistaken, to investigate the realm within the Department
of Justice and FBI. So he didn't have the ability,
like the Attorney General and the Prosecutor Durham to go abroad,

(59:27):
especially on the issues of the potential of outsourcing spying
UH to allied nations for the purpose of circumventing American law.
Do you believe that happened? Yeah, well look let me
let me, let let me go where you were at
just sewn there too is a general. Horowitz has done
good work, and you're right he can't. He can't septem
the people. He can look at people who left. They Oh,

(59:47):
there's things he's limited by, but overall his work product
has been very good. One of the things we did
ask him in the day's hearing is what other reports
are coming? And I was right the end of my time,
so we didn't get it fully elaborate on that, but
there's more information coming from just the Inspector General. And
of course, as you point out, there's the investigation that
mister Durham and mister bar are doing that we think

(01:00:07):
is really going to get to the bottom of all
what took place in twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen when
the FBI and Dr Jay spied on a Trump campaign. Okay,
so we know spying occurred. Even the Attorney General has
now confirmed that they've spent an awful lot of time abroad.
Now do you believe the evidence eventually might show that

(01:00:27):
high ranking people and the intelligence community, Again, there are
certain we know there were two separate areas where spying occurred.
One was through the FIES application of Carter Page to
spy on a candidate transition team president. Then we add
the issue of foreign nations and whether they also spied

(01:00:48):
on a president. Do you believe that happened, because I do,
I do, I do. I think. I think those are
the two we always talked about Carter Page and Papadopolis,
and Papadopolus was these foreign sources that looked like they
were spying on him and getting information that a way
versus going to getting the warrant and doing the surveillance
and things that happened when you get the flies to warrant.
So I do think that that took place, but we

(01:01:09):
also know it was it was not just the two
that they were looking at. They were looking at Manaphort
and Flynn as well, so four individuals that were being
spied on and that worked. Right. There's what set the
Democrats off because when Bill Barr first testified from the
Sinnifinance Committee and said there was a pair of leadership
at the Upperessional on the FBI then said spying took place.
When he said when he added the word spy, and
they went crazy. He said, there's a basis for my
concern about the spine, which is the stuff that we've

(01:01:30):
been talking about and then the fourth thing you said
was use the term political surveillance, political surveillance, and it
sure looks like that's exactly what took place based on
Horowitz's report. And then holding people accountable is what John Jersey,
because that's ultimately I'm going to stop this. If you
don't hold people accountable for what all took place, it'll
never end. And as we said before, it won't just

(01:01:51):
be about a president, it could be about any of us. Well,
I think that's all true. Kyrasman, Jim Jordan, you've been amazing.
What do you think the odds are? Then, say, Friday,
Saturday this week after the questioning. I think it's good.
I think it's good. I think it ends later this
week and acquittal for the president, which everyone knows is
the right move. You really, what would you give the
odds at I think they're strong odds. Frankly, I really don't.

(01:02:14):
I don't see you. Look, you never saw any senators
breaking Republican senator's breaking ranks after the Democrats, and we
hadn't even put on our case yet. So then our
site puts on the case and they come up with
this crazy Bolton thing to the manuscript and it's still
not moving. So I think I think senators understand that
this is, this whole thing has been ridiculous. Let's get
it over with and let's get about doing the people's things.

(01:02:34):
Congressman Jim Jordan, Great State of Ohio will be paying
attention to your state in two hundred and eighty days
when the people, the ultimate jury speaks and we get
to shock the world again. Coming up next, our final
news round up and Information Overload Hour. Here's what happened.
Very shortly after Vice President Biden was made US point

(01:02:55):
man for Ukraine, his son Hunter Biden ends up on
the board of Barisma, working for and paid by the
oligarch Solchevsky. Every witness who was asked about Hunter Biden's
involvement with Barisma agreed there was a potential appearance of

(01:03:17):
a conflict of interest. ABC, Good Morning America, The Washington Post,
The New York Times, Ukrainian law enforcement, and the Obama
State Department itself. They all thought there was cause to
raise the issue about the Bidens and Barisma. The typical

(01:03:38):
board number of these fortune one hundred companies, we know
their titans of their industry. They're highly qualified and as
such they're well compensated. Even so, hunter Biden was paid
significantly more. This is how well he was compensated. So
hunter Biden is paid over eighty three thousand dollars a month,

(01:04:04):
while the average American family of four during that time
each year made less than fifty four thousand dollars. And
that's according to us since this bureau during that time,
and this is what's been reported about his work on
the board. The Washington Post said, quote what specific duties

(01:04:27):
hunter Biden carried out for Barisma are not fully known.
End quote. The New Yorker reported quote once or twice
a year, he attended Barisma board meetings and energy forums
that took place in Europe endote. When speaking with ABC
News about his qualifications to be on Barisma's board, Hunter

(01:04:48):
Biden didn't point to any of the usual qualifications of
a board member. Hunter Biden had no experience in natural gas,
no experience in the energy sector, no experience with Ukrainian
regulatory affairs. As far as we know, he doesn't speak Ukrainian,
so naturally, the media has asked questions about his board membership.

(01:05:12):
Why was Henter Biden on this board if your last
name wasn't Biden. Do you think you would have been
asked to be on the board of Barisma. I don't know,
I don't know, probably not, probably not. Eighty three thousand
bucks a month, and oh, he'd go to Europe on
a couple of trips to sit on a board where
he knows nothing. You guys want to go out to dinner.

(01:05:35):
You want to go out. Let's go out to dinner
driving a brand new Porsche. As he finally says, okay,
I guess I'll have to pay for the kid that
I guess is mine, after denying that it was ever
his kid, just a slee's bag in so many different ways. Now,
why is this important? Why Why do the does the
mob in the media, Why do the Democrats? Oh no, no,

(01:05:57):
nobody incredible as ever suggested we ever did anything wrong
with the Biden's Why would okay, Well, it gets to
the heart of why Hunter zero experience paid millions, had
his father leverage a billion dollars. Why would the president
ever talk about such a thing. Because it's corruption, that's why,

(01:06:21):
it's lawbreaking. That's why, it's a shakedown with your money.
That's why. And just because the you know, congenital liar
who's compromised and corrupt. Adam Shift says, no, there's nothing here,
as he's sent over the less leave partners. If new
information doesn't mean it's true, and it's the same Bolton,

(01:06:45):
Oh my god, John bo bombshell, bombshell, bombshell. We've heard
that for the last three straight years. Everything's a bombshell.
There's no bombshells here. Well except this. Now, this is
where the derangement of the left has brought this country

(01:07:06):
to the brink where you have to compartmentalize and bifurcate
your brain. You have to take on breathtaking, shocking levels
of utter, pure hypocrisy, of intellectual dishonesty, of lacking all reason,

(01:07:27):
all intellectual honesty, all common sense to get to where
they've taken us. But there's more. Peter Schweitzer best selling book.
It's called Profiles and Corruption, Abuse of Power by America's
progressive elite. Well say one thing. In my view, after
the work of Pam Mandi, I'm not so sure quid

(01:07:47):
pro quo Joe is anywhere near the position he was
in yesterday thinking that he can win the nomination. Well,
I think Sean, look is this has been like hanging
over them like a cloud really for quite a while,
and now that it's come front and center, he has
no good explanation. I mean to continue to repeat that.
Nobody has said we've done anything wrong. Lots of people

(01:08:09):
have said you've done something wrong. Lots of people have
said it's a massive conflict of interest. Lots of people
have said, the Ukrainians are not paying your son a
million dollars a year for nothing. They're expecting something in return.
So what did they get in return? Lots of people
have said that Joe Biden dolling out aid and threatening
to fire prosecutors, and you just stop picking winners and

(01:08:31):
losers as to who is going to get aid in
Ukraine while his son is being paid by somebody who
wants to get support from Ukraine. Is a massive problem.
So he does not have good answers. And Sean, it's
not just Hunter, it's five other members of the family.
This is a pattern of behavior for the Bidens that
there's no way for them to escape. I don't think
there's a way for them to escape. And you know

(01:08:53):
all this talk about well John Bolton, now let's go
through Let's just say for the sake of argument. Everything
Bolton is saying, the President's disgusted with Ukraine. He wants
them to do things if they're ever going to get
the money. He expects them to investigate the bidens, which
to me has always been and I've always said that

(01:09:15):
would actually be his sworn duty to faithfully execute the laws.
But then the facts never changed. We always go back
to this. We know we have a transcript. AID was
never mentioned on that transcript. There was no quid pro
quo ever discussed on the transcript. That's why Schiff had
to lie about it and make it up. The two
individuals on the call, the President, President Zelinski and the

(01:09:38):
Foreign Minister of Ukraine, everybody over and over and over,
no pushing, no pressure, no linkage between security assistants and dollars.
They didn't even know at the time of the call
that AID had been held back. But by the way,
they even got it all, and they got it all early.
And guess what, Peter, You know, if I say I'd

(01:09:58):
like to kill that person, but I don't kill that person,
saying I want to kill that person but not killing
that person doesn't mean a thing because they took no action.
They never started an investigation. They never promised to start
an investigation, which is all on the record. So they
got the money, a lot of it early, and they
did nothing and promised to do nothing. Those are the

(01:10:21):
facts that will never change. In the five subsequent high
profile meetings after well aid was never discussed. Then, so
why are we even here and why would Republicans be
this pathetically weak? And if you want witnesses, I say
it needs to be quit pro quo Joe and Hunter
and the compromise congenital liar Schiff and his staff and

(01:10:44):
the hearsay whistleblower non whistleblower. That's who I want to
hear from. Yeah, and that's who we should hear from.
And you know, Sean, as you pointed out, I mean,
the main piece of evidence they have, the contact that
Donald Trump has with Ukrainian in officials with Zalinski, is
that telephone transcript. And people are sort of doing backflips

(01:11:05):
his critics to say, well, you know, he's hinting at
a quid pro quo, he's subtly leveraging his position, to
which I say, look, I mean, what about Donald Trump
and he's dealing with foreign nations? Is ever subtle when
he's dealing with the Chinese, when he's upset with our allies.
He's not hinting at anything. He's explicit. He's out there,

(01:11:26):
he's blunt and he's direct. So the notion that he
is going to shake down, as they claim, a foreign country,
the Ukrainians, to get this research, you know, and he's
going to hint at it and wink at it is
just patently absurd. And I agree with you. There's absolutely
nothing inappropriate about having a conversation with a foreign leader

(01:11:48):
to investigate corruption. You're talking about in the case of Ukraine,
entanglements that involve the vice president and his son and
also involves Zolensky and oligarchs who have had billions of
dollars of US money disappear. I mean, think about this.
Sean Zelinsky is elected the leader of Ukraine. The man

(01:12:09):
that backs him is an oligarch named Kolomoiski. Kolomoiski runs
or ran something called Privat Bank. More than a billion
dollars in USA disappeared from Prevot Bank. There's also allegations
that Kolimowski, again the guy that's backing Zelinski, was involved
with Barizma. So how else are you going to get

(01:12:29):
at the bottom of this nastiness without directly calling the
leader and saying I want you to look into this.
In my mind, it's completely appropriate. It's what we want,
particularly if people are tired of our aid dollars ending
up in the pockets of foreign oligarchs and in some
cases the family members of American politicians. I mean, the

(01:12:50):
whole thing is so obnoxious. And then i'd haven't gotten
your take yet. What do you think about Bolton's book?
Because the Department of Justice is pushed back and against
the latest account from supposedly some manuscript of Bolton or whatever,
and they rejected the description of the conversation between the
Attorney General and Bolton. They said, while the Department of

(01:13:11):
Justice has not reviewed the transcript or the manuscript, New
York Times account of the conversation grossly mischaracterizes what Attorney
General barn Bolton discussed. There's no discussion of personal favors,
undo influence, or investigations. Nor did the Attorney General state
had the president's conversations with foreign leaders were improper? And
you have mcmilvaaney disputing all aspects of it. Now, let's

(01:13:34):
say that let's say that Bolton makes whatever claim he
wants to make, did the President act on it? Because
if he didn't, Now, what we're talking about is a
thought crime. I've never been one that believes in thought
crimes because, frankly, if anyone's to do a thorough examination
of their own mind, in their own thinking, you realize

(01:13:55):
there's a lot of crap the flies through your brain
that doesn't make you guilty of a that's exactly right.
And somebody like Donald Trump, who who wears his emotions
on his sleeve, should not be penalized because he's thinking
something or expressing something in private that other leaders are thinking.
You're even acting on without even talking about it. Look,

(01:14:16):
I think in the case of John Bolton, we all
have to read the book. First of all, there's a
lot of speculation about what's in it, what's not in it.
We also have to filter out the fact that, you know,
these memoirs get written a lot of times. Aids that
are asked to leave an administration. There's frustration there, there's
maybe anger there. But also you know, one aid, even

(01:14:37):
the National Security Advisor is not privy to the entire
encompassing of what a policy was. You had the witnesses
that showed up that worked in Ukraine saying that they
didn't believe there was a quid pro quo. You had
the Ukrainians saying that it wasn't. So whether John Bolton
thinks there was or not is honestly kind of irrelevant.

(01:14:59):
Whether one secular age thinks that something was the policy.
The question is what was the policy and what evidence
is it for their being that policy? And that's where
I think this is just sort of more of an
effort to kind of extend the conversation. They don't feel
like they have the Democrats have the evidence to get

(01:15:19):
Donald Trump impeached, so they are trying to drag it out,
hoping that they can continue to throw something at the
situation and it'll stick. And I just don't think that's
gonna work. I don't think it's gonna work. The question
is how long weak Republicans are going to drag this
crap out because I'm sick of it. I'm sick of
the double stay. I am sick of every knife that
has been put in this president's back, and yet we've

(01:15:41):
had unparalleled success for the country. That's why I can't
wait for two hundred and eighty days. Let's have an
up or down vote, yes or no. Let the ultimate
jury will speak. And I hope we shocked. I hope
they shocked the country again. That would be ideal to me.
And I can't just the price of admission of watching
the media having to what are the words we can
now project? Donald J. Trump has been reelected the forty

(01:16:04):
fifth president of the United States. They'll they'll lose it.
So you also talk about Bernie Elizabeth, what is the
theme that runs through your book? In the minute in
fifteen seconds we have left, so people understand this is
not just the Bidens, although the Bidens are by far
the worst. This is about how public servants progressives, instead

(01:16:26):
of serving us, have been serving themselves, Sean. The Bidens
did it through five family members self Enrichmond Elizabeth Warren
has done some very similar things. Bernie Sanders, for all
of us talk about socialism and not liking the wealthy,
has engaged in self enriching, self serving behavior himself. And
it's really a question, Sean, of are we going to

(01:16:47):
trust these individuals with more power? They're all progressives, unlike
conservatives and moderates and classical liberals and libertarians, progressives say,
give us a lot more power to solve your problems.
Not only are they not going to solve our problems,
history suggests they're going to abuse the power they're given
for their own self benefit. And that's the finding factor

(01:17:08):
here that everybody needs to get their hands around. Unbelievable
expose and it's amazing. It's always the left. They're only
generous with other people's money, but they're enriching themselves when
they're supposed to be public servants. It's sick, it's twisted,
it's ugly. And if anyone with the last name Trump
ever did any of this, trust me, would not go
over well with the country. Peter Schweitzer profiles corruption abused

(01:17:28):
by America's progressive elite. Hannity dot com, Amazon dot com,
bookstores everywhere. Thank you, sir for being with us. When
we come back. The coronavirus anything to worry about. We'll
get a quick update on that and more as we continue.
All right, twenty five now untill the top of the hour,
eight hundred and ninety four one. Sean, if you want
to be a part of this extravaganza, all right, I'm
not going to spend a lot of time on this.

(01:17:49):
We're gonna get to your calls here in a second.
I know a lot has been said. I've talked to
a lot of people, and there's a lot of worry
and concern about this coronavirus in China now seems to me,
and I'm just being honest here. And doctor Mark Siegel
over a Fox, he was sounding the alarm over China's
quote reckless, scary response to the coronavirus. And we know

(01:18:12):
that China was under reporting and purposely minimizing the real
impact of what was going on there. But eventually, oh yeah, yeah,
we have to close Disney and movie theaters and everybody's
running around with masks all over their face. We have
our friend of the program, doctor Josh Josh umber Atlas,
MD at a Wichita, doctor Lee Gross, President for Docs

(01:18:34):
for Patient Care Foundation, and I just wanted to get
their take on this because we have the Health Secretary
Azar you know, in the Center for Disease Control and
director of National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease, and
every American agency is doing their thing. But I just
I always worry that, you know, by the time we

(01:18:55):
find out, it's too late. Welcome back guys, doctor Umber,
what do you think? Thanks for having us and always
happy to chat. Um. You know, I think it's a
serious concern, um, you know, especially when it starts off
with some misinformation. UM. But but thankfully, I think the
response has been approp or control. Cases in the US

(01:19:19):
are directly related to travel to the the affected provinces
in China. UM. So that's that's more reassuring it, you know,
relative to influenza, which is, you know, it's a bad
year for that and has affected you know, tens of
thousands of lives. Um. You know, I think we can
have a measured approach. Okay, what is your take, doctor gross.

(01:19:41):
So we've you know, we have about forty five hundred
confirmed cases in China right now. In seventeen hundred of
those cases are new within the last twenty four hours.
So those are just the ones that we know about.
You know. The concern is we've already had one hundred
and six deaths in China with such a small number
of cases. With that many deaths, the concerns that it's
a pretty aggressive disease, you know. So fortunately we only

(01:20:02):
have five here in the United States. But you know
what China has done. At least what they've told us
they've done is they've quarantined fifty million people. Now that
is the equivalent of about one sixth of the American population.
Can you imagine if we tried to quarantine fifty million
people here in the United States, that would not go over. So,
you know, the best course of action really is for
us to work with China and for them to be

(01:20:22):
open and on as to sharing information with with our people.
All Right, we have a we have an incubation rate.
That is, in other words, you can be while it's
incubating in your body, apparently you're infectious. Is that correct?
It is correct, you know, So that incubation period committee
where from two to fourteen days. The question is whether
or not somebody can be contagious during a period where

(01:20:44):
they're asymptomatic. You know, so they can fly over to
the United States, have no symptoms on the plane, but
then develop the symptoms once they're here. The question is
were they contagious while they were on that plane and
when they were traveling. And if that's the case, then
how do we track all of those contacts so that
we're going to be recontact tracing. It doesn't appear that
it's even possible at this point in China, does it,

(01:21:05):
Doctor Rumber. I think in China, with the population density
they have, that would get much harder to accurately track that,
especially as people start to hit the public places, the
hospitals and doctor's offices in mass so you have this
large crowding effect, but maybe not everyone was registered when
they went there. They're waving in line, So yeah, tracking

(01:21:27):
that does start to get pretty difficult too. And you know,
we don't know if it's affecting the sicker, those prone
with respiratory you know, illnesses like lung cancer as CPD
more so than the average healthy population. Well, but I
saw it with doctor Rumber to put it in perspective.
You know, we influenza, the annual flu season, we've already

(01:21:50):
seen fifteen million cases and eight thousand deaths from here
in the United States, including fifty four children. So when
we're talking about you know, one hundred cases compared to
what we already see with the polue, and you know,
it's certainly not time to panic yet. They're definitely time
to pay attention and certainly time for the Chinese government
to be open and honest with the problems going on. Well,
I think that's that's first and foremost. But let's assume
for a few minutes and then ever going to do that,

(01:22:12):
they're going to be China, and they're going to close
themselves off and probably too prideful and not want to
seat the world's help. Do you feel confident we have
the means and ability in this country to stop any
type of pandemic from coming out? What is it? I
guess we have a mortality rate of what five percent
with those virus maybe a little higher. Yeah, I certainly
think we have excellent people from the CDC. I mean,
you mentioned you had doctor Fauci on your show yesterday.

(01:22:34):
You know, he is a genius in issues around this.
Looks like we're about three months out from potentially having
a phase one vaccine trial and another three months out
for a phase two vaccine trial. So there's some some
promise there. You know, we're looking at twenty different airports
where we're doing a dance screening. But you know, again
the question is on the asymptomatic people. But clearly outbreaks,

(01:22:57):
you know, national outbreaks are going to happen mostly spreading
with your symptomatic people. So I think you know what
we're doing from the CDC and from the from health
and Human services perspective is you know, it's a great start.
I want to thank you Bold, go ahead. Last word,
doctor Rumber. Oh, just putting perspective too. There's something called
the reproductive value. You know how contagious is an illness,

(01:23:20):
and we can grade that the smallpox or measles has
a reproductive value of sixteen seventeen. The common cold has
a value of six, which means you'll infect six other
people with your common cold. Virus and influenza and this
coronavirus are in the range of two to three. So
I think as long as we you'll put that perspective

(01:23:43):
China population density, that they are going to spread more
per person because they're just closer. But with the land
mass and distribution we have, we can spread that out
and decrease the to others in a more effective manner
to some degree. All right, apreciate your insight, both of you.
Eight hundred and nine for one, Sean Tolfree telephone numbers

(01:24:04):
still can't get over you know, we've known what why
have I been highlighting what struck in page talked about
when they said, oh you know, those those smelly Walmart
Chopper Trump supporters. I can smell them from here. Why
was the term irredeemable, deplorable, so despicable? Why was Obama suggesting, Ah,

(01:24:24):
those people in Pennsylvania, bitter Americans clinging to their God,
their constitutional rights, their Bibles and religion. Because it's just
such a contempt that they have for we the people.
Let me go back to now, Don Lemon, fake news CNN.

(01:24:44):
I met Don Lemon a couple of times. I don't
have a problem with Don Lemon. He wants to be liberal.
Let them be liberal, but listen to because it's revealing.
What have I said? It's it's all of this establishment,
all of the swamp creatures. They seem to care more
about what the other swamp creatures think of them. That's
why I don't like them, nor do I want their approval. Ever,

(01:25:05):
so I never show up at their stupid events. I
go to one of any year for a friend media party,
and I get confronted by you know, CNN, Jeff Zucker, stenographers,
you know, Humpty Dumpty and Oliver, somebody that thinks that
I know who this person is, just total stalkers. You know,
if you focused on your own low rate. It shows

(01:25:27):
maybe you do better. I think it's revealing in as
much as what do they think of we the people listen.
Of course it's it's it's he's just trying to demean her,
and obviously it's false. And look, he also knows, deep
in his heart that Donald Trump couldn't find U crane
in a map if you had the letter you and
a picture of an actual physical crane next to it.

(01:25:48):
He knows that this is, you know, an administration defined
by ignorance of the world. And so that's partly him
playing to their base and playing you know, the credulous
humor rube demo that backs Donald Trump. Um that that
dol Trump's a smart one in there. Y'all, y'all elite us. Yeah,

(01:26:12):
your maps and you're spelling, given though my bath. You're reading, Yeah,
you're reading, you know, your geography, knowing other countries, sipping
your latte, all those lines on the map. Only them
elite us know where Ukraine is. Sorry, I apologize, but

(01:26:35):
oh my god, but you but it was Rick's fault.
I blame Ric but at all, honestly, but not sorry.
Hold on, hold on, hold on them. No it's good. Sorry,
that was a good one. I needed that. He is

(01:26:59):
given oxygens or racists. So we have to stop demonizing
people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country
is white men. Most of them radicalize to the right,
and we have to start doing something about them. There
is no travel band on them. There is no band
on you know they have the Muslim band, there is

(01:27:21):
no white guy band. So what do we do about that?
What do how about answering that question? What do don lemon?
What do we do about that? A few of Americans
that may not take your liberal point of view, and
I don't care that you're a liberal. You want to
be a liberal. Your whole network is liberal. The whole
network hates Fox. Keep doing it because all you keep

(01:27:42):
doing is making me number one and making Fox number one,
because nobody can stand to watch this because you're alienating
an entire group of people that just have a philosophical
difference than you do. If you want to know what
elite is, a is, that's it. You want to know

(01:28:02):
what swampy is, that's it. We know what condescension is,
that's it. I went back, I watched, I watched over Christmas.
I don't know. Maybe I'm getting older. These movies are
making me emotional as they get older into and I'm
watching It's a Wonderful Life, and porge George Bailey finally
is about to leave and get the heck out of that,

(01:28:25):
you know, the town and the Bailey building alone. And
then he goes to mister Potter, the richest man in town.
You know, I know you lentz and so that money.
He didn't. I know for a fact that the bank
that he ran denied this personal Well, you know, they
ought to wait until they get put weights, he said,
George Bailey, wait for what you know? Because those people,

(01:28:49):
that riff raff, if you will, they do most of
the working and bleeding and dying for this country. Don't
they deserve to work hard and have a decent house
and a safe neighborhood with a nice car. Not all
that said, I'm adding here, but uh, and a bath
for their kids and a place to go and a
nice home of their own. Well to him, they're nothing

(01:29:11):
but rabble and nothing but whatever. And then poor George
Billy well, he had to stay his conscience. He couldn't
leave because if he left, Potter would run the whole
town he stayed for Potter, the whole point of It's
a Wonderful Life? Well, what would life be like if
I never lived? And then Clarence gets his wings? By
the way, you think that's true about I've never heard
this thing about well bell rings, a angel gets his wings?

(01:29:33):
Did you ever hear that? I've never heard that before.
Every time a bell rings and angel gets its wings.
I sure you actually believe that. I mean, I don't
know if I mean I listen, I don't know this movie,
but I mean I believe there's angels all around us.
Don't tell me you did not watch It's a Wonderful Life. Please,
don't even say that's what I just said to you
when you're in the middle of yourn. You honestly never

(01:29:55):
watched It's a Wonderful Life. So this Christmas, when I
was at my brother's house, my they had it on.
Lauren had it on, and I was like, oh my gosh,
this movie. Yeah, I said, Sean keeps talking about this
at work, and she was like, dude, you've never seen
this movie. I'm like, no, Okay, before this week is out,
you gotta promise me you'll watch it so we can
talk about it on air by Friday. Okay, all right,

(01:30:18):
free time? All right? Do you think I have free time?
You find free time? How do you find free time?
Did you uphill both ways in this snow to school?
We could do this all day long. That's what my
kids think, you know, every time I start talking about, well,
I'm you know, I'm working all these year years and
then dishwasher and paper. But they're like, oh, shut dad,

(01:30:40):
shut up. And it's like the body language. They just
shut down. They don't do they don't want to hear it.
They don't care. Your grandmother was a prison guard. Your
father waited tables on weekends. You know, he grew up poor.
My mother grew up poor. My grandparents said nothing. You
think they look at me like I have five hundred
heads on top of me. Why it's so frustrated I

(01:31:04):
do that to you every day. Well, I hate to
say it, but I was just like then when I
was their age, being you know, rolling my eyes about
my father talking about he didn't have a penny when
he grew up. Oh, I am right, all right, diet?
Can I leave now? Why are we all like that?
As kids were so stupid? Well? End on this note, wait, wait,
and then leave our parents, and then we lose our
parents greatest people. This is negative town. Let me just

(01:31:26):
tell you something my grandmother used to say to me,
and God rest her soul. Now, I really appreciate it.
She would say to me almost every day. You know, Linda,
youth is really wasted on the young. And she's right.
You know what. My grandfather said. He had a saying too.
He fused to say, well, he had a tattoo, a
navy tattoo, I mean, grandpa, and I just did it
to annoy him. I don't know why I enjoyed annoying

(01:31:46):
my grandfather, but I did. Grandpa. I'm gonna get a
tattoo just like you when I get older. You had
a damn fool yard. You're a damn fool if you
do that. It's he gets so ticked off. But he
always said, you can't put an older person's head on
it younger person's shoulder. I guess that's the Winston Churchill adage.
If you're twenty and not a liberal, you don't have
a heart. If you're forty and not a conservative, you

(01:32:08):
do not have a brain. Period. All right, that's gonna
wrap things up. For tonight. We got an incredible show tonight.
Alan Dershwitz, he was spectacular yesterday. Senator Ted Cruz, Mark Meadows,
Doug Collins, Jim Jordan, Louie Gomert, Dan Bongino Haraldo, and
the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin bb Netanyahoo, We've got

(01:32:29):
the news and information you won't get from the Mob
nineties ton tonight. We'll see you then, Thanks for being
with us. Back here tomorrow
