The real inflation reduction act would be to allow the United States to take our arms from behind our back and show the world true energy independence...it's possible... we just need to rewind our policies a few years.

Sean continues the final hour with reaction to Jasmine Crockett’s comments about the Austin Metcalf murder case, arguing that she distorted the facts and wrongly tried to turn the case into a racial issue. John Yoo joins to analyze the verdict, self-defense claims, election integrity, California’s slow vote-counting process, mail-in ballots, voter ID, proof of citizenship, and whether federal courts may step in on late-arriving ballots. Later, Sean revisits the story of veterans Brendan and Dolly Jones and their dog Lucy, who remains held after a dispute involving a prior “dangerous dog” designation and a later leash incident on their own property. The hour closes with Hannity emphasizing law and order, school safety, voter confidence, and the importance of common sense in government.

Sean Hannity opens the show by framing the 2026 midterms as the most important midterm election in a lifetime, arguing that Democrats are embracing radical candidates and policies while Republicans have reasons for optimism. He points to voter registration shifts, redistricting wins, the Supreme Court’s racial gerrymandering decision, and failed Democratic power grabs as signs that the GOP can hold ground. Hannity also previews America’s 250th anniversary, urges listeners to reflect on the Declaration of Independence, and criticizes the left’s attacks on billionaires, business success, energy, policing, and border security. The hour also includes President Trump’s Oval Office remarks on Iran, oil moving through the Strait of Hormuz, possible progress toward a deal, and new action rolling back Biden-era fishing restrictions to help American fishermen.

Sean reacts to chaotic scenes around Madison Square Garden after the Knicks’ playoff win, using the unrest to argue that New York’s law-and-order problems will worsen under Mamdani-style leadership. He criticizes defund-the-police policies, no-bail laws, and the idea of sending social workers into dangerous subway or street situations. Paul Mauro and Mary Margaret Olohan join the hour to discuss urban disorder, D.C.’s improved public safety after federal support, New York’s policing challenges, and the risk posed by unvetted migrants and terror-linked individuals entering the country. The hour also covers the denial of entry to a Somali World Cup referee over alleged terror ties and broader concerns about the millions of unvetted migrants who entered during the Biden years.
