Sean Hannity opens the show by breaking down the turmoil inside CBS News and 60 Minutes after Scott Pelley’s clash with new leadership. Sean argues that legacy media outlets have lost trust because viewers can now see the bias and choose other sources for news, opinion, and investigative reporting. He uses the CBS shake-up to explain why conservative talk radio, Fox News, and podcasts have become so influential as alternatives to the old media gatekeepers. The hour also turns to the exodus of major companies and wealthy residents from high-tax blue states, including Exxon’s move from New Jersey to Texas and the growth of “Wall Street South” in Florida. Sean connects those moves to taxes, regulation, energy costs, law and order, and quality of life. He also previews Kash Patel’s later appearance and the ongoing investigation into what Sean calls the “grand conspiracy” behind Russiagate and government weaponization.
