Tyler Merritt, Founder and CEO of Nine Line Apparel, joins us today for a quick hit about helping the people of Florida. Tyler and his company are working to donate and organize, and put a post on Facebook which they took down and silenced because they deemed it political. Really? As you can see the box for political, is UNCHECKED.
Coming up next our final News round Up and Information Overload Hour News Roundup, Information Overload Hour eight hundred nine for one Shawn our number. If you want to be a part of the program, I want you to bring to your attention a story and I think it should be a big issue in both the gubernatorial and the senatorial racism. In the Great State or Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, there is a children's hospital of Philly known as CHOP. It's the Gender and Sexuality Development Clinic, and it hosts training for teachers for administrators that promote hiding students gender identity for their kids, infusing gender ideology into school curriculums. According to emails now and video obtained by Parents Defending Education, apparently the clinic, now their alleging, has completed thirty three trainings in fifteen schools, reaching more than fifteen hundred educators. Now the CHOPS Gender and Sexuality Development Clinic is continuing to influence other school districts in Pennsylvania. And we have with us is the director of the outreach for Parents Defending Education, Erica Sanzi, is with us to talk about what's going on here. I had not heard about this till I earlier today, I don't know a lot about it. My understanding was is that the Children's Hospital of Philly had a good reputation as far as I had known. Thanks for having me, Yeah. I think that something that's been really shocking to a lot of us is that in recent years, children's hospitals around the country have added on these gender clinics. They go by different names. This one's the Gender and Sexuality Development Clinic. Other hospitals have a similar name, but not exact. And what we are seeing now is that the hospitals are being used to come into schools and offer training to teachers and staff. We're not sure yet how widespread this is, but Philadelphia certainly is not the only children's hospital where this is happening, and it's it's alarming. Just let me backtrack a second here, because you're the one that came out with this information that you you have been able to confirm that this clinic has already completed thirty three trainings fifteen schools, reaching more than fifteen educators. How were you able to confirm that? Well, because we do public records requests, and we also do a lot of digging online, and so as you may have been following as children's hospitals are now, you know, sort of being outed to the public for what they're doing with minors. We see them feverishly scrubbing their websites from their own materials. Right, So Boston Children's Hospital deleted forty videos off of its website once more people in the public got them. So we're just again looking at what materials they have on their own websites. Sometimes we find them on the school district websites as well. And then in some cases because the school districts are paying for these services. And I actually do not know if that's the case in Philadelphia, so I can't confirm that that is, but in some cases it shows up in budget documents because the gender clinics at the hospitals are being paid by the school districts for these trainings. All right, So now, how do you know where the money's coming from and where and how widespread is this? Do you believe around the country? And do you have any recordings that back up what your claims are? Well, we have, yes, and again Philadelphia is just one of the first ones that we've published, but it appears to be and again we're just beginning to look at this, as are so many other media outlets, but this does appear to be a national trend. I don't know if you saw the data that came out this week, but just in one year, the diagnoses of gender dysphoria in minors has doubled, and gender clinics are increasingly again. They're very connected to local departments of health and very connected to schools, and it appears that in one way to sort of circumvent families is to be having the hospitals come directly in and do the trainings with the teachers without the knowledge of the families. And do you think this is happening in hospitals all across the country. Unfortunately, I do think that we're going to find that this is common practice. I know, for example, we just published today documents from the Children's Hospital out in Chicago, very very similar thing. They went into a district outside of Chicago. They went to every single school in the district, and that district only goes up to eighth grade, so we're talking about young students. And they've trained staff on the same things that are in the Philadelphia story, right, So it's helping the school establish their policies and a trans inclusive policy, which I think many of us, out of compassion and basic decency would be on board with until we find out what those policies mean. Right, So, what these policies look like in schools across the country is that a child can change the way that they identify their name, their pronouns, and even have a support plan drafted by the school where almost every adult in the school knows that the child is going by a different name, using a different restroom, using a different locker room, being allowed to sleep on overnight field trips based on their gender identity, and that the parents have no right to know this that the staff told they are forbidden from telling parents. If that's what the student wishes, you can spind us for yourself. A lot of this is on their own website, Chope dot edu, and will continue to follow the story is warranted. It's a little it's a little chilling. It's like, you know, teachers in school field they have the right to tell your kids about gender identity and say, oh, don't worry about telling mommy or daddy or bringing it up. If you talk about age inappropriateness K through third grade, if you say you don't want those topics taught. You think it's age inappropriate. Oh forget it, You're going to be investigated as a domestic terrorist. Let's get to our phones as we say hi to Lee on Arizona. Sean Hannity's show, Big Debate last night, how are you. I'm doing good, Sean, Good afternoon. What I wanted to say, firstly, was such a lovely segment you had with Ainslie and I have her a great book. I did purchase that. Secondly, what I want second, Sean, what I wanted to speak about is you mentioned about the high gas costs and yes, food costs, and they're these hard financial times that so many people are facing. The eighty seven thousand IRIS agents that the Biden administration is going to hire. Instead of doing that, how about this, Sean, get the IRIS workers back in the office so they can get back to work since the President said that the pandemic was over, and process people's tax returns. How about that. My daughter, she still hasn't gotten her tax return money back yet, and they keep saying three more months, three more months, three more months. This is ridiculous. And then Sean, I just heard that people were asking them about when are we going to get our tax returns back? You know, I'll tell you right now. And the Republicans are actually smart to do this. They said, okay, well we're hire all these high r s agents. We're not going to harass the working men and women across the country. I could tell you from my own experience if as I didn't get audited when I wasn't making any money in my life, they left me alone. Because you can't get blood from a stone and it's almost without fail. And do I think some of this is political, I do, but it doesn't matter. You know. I feel eighty seven thousand agents will mean that the rest of the country is going to get the Hannity treatment, and that is that they pull your on an annual basis, they pull the tax return I have not one. I have two accounting firms that independently do my taxes. Then I have a law firm that goes over their work and their conclusions. And all three groups have to agree before we bile the taxes. It's insane, and I will tell you it is nothing, but you know, for everybody harassment. But this is big government is this is the leftist agenda? You know they feel like, oh, people aren't paying their fair share. You are five times more likely to get audited if you make under twenty five thousand dollars a year. And the reason is is they think, oh, well, you're probably doing work on the side off the books, and you really have a lot more money. And then they look at how much your apartment is, and how much your cell phone bill is, and the neighborhood you live in, et cetera, et cetera. It's so obnoxious, it's so you know, it's so big brothery and so heavy handed. At times you make an honest mistake on your taxes. And boy, you know, our penalty is an interest. I know so many people that have suffered, and and it stresses everybody out people. You know, for them, it's a big deal. For me, it's an average day. For people, it's a big deal. When they just keep coming after you, coming after you, coming after you. They'll take the gold out of your teeth if you drop dead. Anyway, Lee, thank you, all right, let's get back to our busy phone. Let's stay in Arizona. Peter's next, Peter, You're on the Sean Hannity Show. Hi, sure, and thank you so much for all your hard work and effectiveness my problems. We will talk about how good you are, so we appreciate you. That's why you know that. Thank you. Yeah, it's it's great stuff. I wanted to let you know I'm very concerned about the priorities of the Democratic Party with this racecar arm between Breakmasters and Mark Kelly and a whole bunch of other things. Social Security right now, according to their own honor report, has a shrinking two point eight five trillion dollars left, supposed to run out in about like thirteen years or something like that. Less than that. A great New deal according to you know this former director of the CBO, he goes ninety three trillion dollars. That's thirty times more money the Democrats are focusing on versus the shrinking three three trillion that's been social Security. So what that really mean? That means that when you vote, if you're a senior citizen, please hear this. Okay, spoke with my mom about this. We says you got to let people know. Look, if you're a senior citizen and you vote Democratic, you have a thirty times greater priority toward the Green New Deal and to do to social security according to that projection. So I'm telling the senior that there, please be very very careful, do not vote do not vote Democratic, because you're going to push that agenda. And this is the biggest concern I had. We got Blake Masters, we got Carry Lakes, We've got guys like Elaine Payne, and these these are different runs. I really want to see that work. So I'm feeling very very strong about this. I do want to get the message out. Listen. Let me tell you all those races are winnable. Is what everybody needs to understand. You know, right now, Carry Lake has a lead in the gubernatorial race. Blake Masters has made a tremendous ground and I want to see the next after last night's debate because I thought Blake Masters had a good debate last night. So but it's really going to take all of you. I can tell you. I've watched this over the years, going into elections. Poll show this Republican's gonna lose, that a Republican's gonna lose. This Republican's gonna lose, They're gonna get killed, they're gonna get destroyed, and they end up winning. So you Poles, give us a snapshot. If you have a lot of poles and they're relatively consistent, then there's usually something to it. However, it doesn't capture a wave. And I think more conservatives, more people that I know than ever before, they're never gonna talk to a poster. I've never got a call from a poster in all the years you know, I've loved politics. I'd love a call from a poster. I'd take the time to talk to the poster and give my opinions and answer questions and and love to participate as long as it was a legitimate pose. So you know, at the end of the day, the only poll that's gonna matter is on election day. And if you want to change things and you don't like the direction the country is headed in, you have all the power. This is why I keep saying it's an inflection point, at tipping point. It's an all hands on deck moment for the country thirty two days. I hope you feel the urgency I feel, because it's never gotten this bad this fast, with so many Americans suffering. Seventy percent of the country now is living paycheck to paycheck. And among the seventy percent, there are people that can't even make ends meet the poor, the middle class, people on fixed incomes. Our own military is getting lectured and advice on how to get onto supplemental assistance and food stamps. This is a national embarrassment. Being rejected by OPEC a dozen times is embarrassing. Sucking up to two bit murdering thug dictators like maduro An MBS, it's embarrassing, you know, to be Oh, we're gonna get these pills in case of Vladimir acts, uh, you know Biden warning of armageddon, and so answer is instead of well, I think we'll just go out and we'll just order these what are those pills, Linda, what do we call those pills? Nine two hundred ninety million dollars worth of pool pills in preparation for nuclear emergency. That's your plan, But just when you're going to accept the fact that it might be inevitable, and instead of getting on the phone and kicking this guy's ass and telling him that Moscow is going to be annihilated, if you ever do this right twenty five to the top of the hour, we'll get to your phone calls in just a minute. Here, you know, we have our friends, Tyler Merritt, and he's the founder CEO of Nineline Apparel and he's going to join us in a second and me and his company. They've been working to donate, organize and put a post on Facebook in which apparently they took down in silence because they aemed it political. By the way, they're doing this and donating one hundred percent of all profits of Florida Strong T shirt design, and it's all going to be donated to relief and recovery efforts for our fellow Americans that are suffering in Florida and to help people rebuild their lives after this natural disaster. It's what one hundred billion dollars estimated in damages and people just need help. It's that simple anyway. So they keep running, keep trying to put this post this at Facebook, and they're saying something that is not true, which is that it's overtly political and offensive, and nothing could be further from the truth. The ad was promoting Florida's Strong a design that they had to raise proceeds to help Ploridians rebuild after the wreckage of Hurricane and Ian. There's no mention of Governor de Santis, no mention of Rick Scott or Marco Rubio, a President Biden or any other politician. Anyway, Tyler is with us, So they won't put your here. You're given one hundred percent of the profits to charity, and they won't let you put up a T shirt for sale. Yeah. Soehan, We're down here in Fort Myers. We're hanging out with the QUT Cooperative and trying to get generators and fuel and food and much needed funding out to this community. And one thing we've done in the past with other natural disasters, I know, we teamed up with our friend Charlie Daniels Scott us a soul and we did Tennessee Strong. We never had any issues with Facebook, but about a year ago we got banned from Facebook and ever since then it's got increasingly difficult to talk to a human And surprisingly, after Fox and Friends ran a story yesterday, they contacted us and said, hey, this must be a misunderstanding. They've ben sent a note to Fox and said, you know, this is the advertiser's fault. They clicked a button that marked it as political, so we silenced it because it's political. Well that's not true. We actually took screenshots of the messages and showed that we did not click those buttons. We were competent into viduals. But no one really wants to pay attention to the fact that Facebook algorithm is censoring that seems the censoring conservative voices. And it's getting increasingly more difficult, and there's there's humans behind creating these algorithms. At facebooks, they do need to be health accountable. They need to answer questions as to why a shirt that says Florida Strong, that makes no mention of any political pundit, political organization, just says we're going to help the victims of her union, why was it was restricted? And then why you would go and make a false assertion that that my advertising team doesn't know what they're doing when we do well, it's unbelievable. I guess the only thing we could do is we could put it up on Hannity dot com. I think it's already up there, and put it out on our social media so people can see it. And if you're given one hundred percent of the profits to the people in need in Florida, you know, I know you to be a person a character that money is going to the people of Florida. Um, you know, but this is now a big deal. This you know who was it, Ronald McDaniel, the RNC. They're going through the same thing where their ads, their appeals for money are being suppressed. And this is now a massive issue in this country because now you're talking about in kind donations to one party and censoring another party. And that's exactly what happened in twenty twenty with zero experience Hunter in his laptop. Absolutely, and it is getting worse. And I will challenge you if any marketers or individuals out there that understand general marketing practices. I can go on Facebook and I can target an audience that likes Starbucks, but I can't target an audience that likes Black Rifle coffee. And you know our friends at Black Rifle, they might have the same similar opinion on how they look at the world as you and I do, but I can't target their audience. Facebook will not allow me to. But I can target Starbucks. Now that's very interesting. And you can go down the role of decks of different conservative and organizations individuals that you can and can't target. It seems like there's many more banned conservative organizations, individuals myself included, Well, we appreciate all your work, all your efforts, all your generosity, and we want to support these efforts anyway. We'll put it up on Hannity dot com. Uh Tyler Merrit Pounder CEO nine Line Apparel and Florida Strong T shirts and things you can buy all the profits going to the people of Florida that are really struggling. It's, by the way, a really cool T shirt. It's got Florida Strong, It's got a map of the state of Florida. It looks fawesome, looks great. Well, well, Sean, I'm gonna have to send you, Linda and the crew of there a bunch of them. We just brought a bunch down to the first responders down in Florida. You know what, you know, Government Santis has done down there, you know, should be an example for what all governors should be able to do. And we're just extremely proud and excited to be able to support Florida. All right. We always love having it. Tylan, thanks so much for being with us, my friend. Thank you, Sean eight hundred and nine four one, Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, gat out, let's say out of Brad in California. He's got to love it out in California. You have a guy out there he thinks he's going to be president, and I'm even predicting he's very high odds Gavin is going to be the Democratic nominee in twenty twenty four. I'm sure that makes people in California very, very nervous, because well, he hasn't done a good job there, all right. I mean, the best way to keep him from being president in twenty twenty four is not let him be governor in twenty twenty two. And we've got a real viable choice out here with Brian Dalley running against him, and we need to get people out there to vote and get Branson's name out through whether it be on your show or Fox News, get him out there. Brian's coming up in the polls. He's gained nine points in the last two weeks, and he's got a real shot at this if we can get him out there. But the thing I want to talk about is what a crook Newsom is. And he has came out and called the oil companies out and the fuel industry out. Is price gouging. Is the reason the price of fuel is high, and I'm looking at things right now, and in California, we're paying a dollar thirty two a gallon for tax indes on diesel and as seventy five and a half cents on gas. Nobody in the oil industry makes that kind of money ever, So if there's price gouging going on in the state of California, it's doing being done by Newsom himself, which is typically him not to be able to look in the mirror and see the problem because he runs from problems instead of addressing him. And that's why we need a real leader like Brian Dalley that's going to go after the problems and address him. Gavin Newsom has fixed nothing since he's been governored. The problems that existed are worse, and the problem that didn't exist are now problems. And we need a leader, not a whimp, and we need a leader that's going to get out here and get things done. Well. I can tell you you know that he's the worst governor in the country. And in spite of his ambition and his desire and will go into the Oval office and throwing his coat over his shoulder, acting on he owns the place. When Joe is Away. I don't think that dream is going to become a reality because if this country has a choice between Gavin Newsom and anybody else, nobody wants what he did to California to be done here. He's the only governor, lieutenant governor governor on their watch that lost population in the Golden State. Prior to that, for one hundred and seventy plus years, California, you know, open their doors to new people every year. Now now it's a net exodus. People can't get the hell out of there fast enough. Anyway, Brad appreciated my friend. Have a good weekend. Eight hundred nine four one Seawn our number, Debbie Colorado, Sean Hannity Show. What's up, Debbie? How are you? I'm well. How are you? I'm good? Thanks for calling it. Yeah, I wanted to suggest that instead of people voting based on personality, because it does seem like people will say, oh, I like that guy, or I like this gal or whatever, that they think of voting as interviewing and hiring their politicians for a job. I've recently been hired at a local school district. I went to a lot of job interviews and so just to think about voting as that as to think about voting as putting those people up for an interview, and you're hiring them to do a job. And I don't hear enough people saying that, enough people saying, Look, this is the job I'm interviewing for. You know, this is the job I want. You know, they're just like, I'm the best person, aren't I lovely? You know? And I just don't want them to do that anymore. I want them to go, Look, this is who I am, and this is what I stand for, this is what I'm going to do. You need to hire me. You know. Well, look, remember any elected officials supposed to be a public servant. Now, what does a servant mean. It means you serve the people. You get the honor of being their servant. But unfortunately it usually goes the other way. They think in their minds that their kings and their queens and they are the ones that need, you know, people to bow and genuflect before them. That's not what they're supposed to do. And you know that's why I like when when they came out with the commitments with America, first time Republicans have done a contract or a commitment like this in twenty eight years. I like it because, I mean, you're telling people this is what I'm going to do, this is where I stand on the issues. And then we get to hold them accountable and if they do their job well, we'll give them another opportunity, hopefully with the Republican president, and get these things signed into law, and if they don't do it, you fire them and you get somebody else. I'm I have no it's to me, Republican Democrat is meaningless. I'm looking for conservatives that run on principles that work, their common sense and then not that complicated, and then I want them to fight to get the job done. That's it pretty simple, and save the country and get the government back on track, because it's a total Adams shift show right now for the country. And I'm sick and tired of all the negative news. I'm tired of all the stupidity, of the embarrassing, embarrassing moments of our president. I'm tired of all of it. Anyway, good call up. I appreciate it, Debbie. Thank you. It's not a popularity contest, and yeah, I'm looking for people that want to serve their constituents Washington State. We've been following the Senate race out there, and Patty Murray is in some troubles now within the margin of error for Tiffany Smiley out there, and we're hoping she can maybe pull off a miracle. Jim, Washington State is impossible. I think it's possible, and I hope she does. But I'd like to mention the border crisis. I think it's really our most important situation right now, both for what's happening and what it's going to mean over the next decade or two. We're clearly with that crisis. We're violating federal and state laws. There's no doubt about it. We've got a president that's encouraging this law violation and a vice president, and we have a Senate in a House that are doing nothing about it. They're just sitting and watching it, doing a little bit of complaining, but not much else. You gotta understand, they don't have the power to stop it. Governor Abbott, Governor de Santis, Governor Doocey, all these border state governors, they don't have the power to stop it. There. They've tried everything within their power, and it seems the most effective strategy that they adopted is to say, Okay, we're not a sanctuary state, we're not a sanctuary city, we don't support law breaking. Okay, we'll send you to where they do want to write their own laws and not abide by the rule of law. And that would be Matha's vineyard. That would be outside of Kamala Harris's house, outside of the White House, New York City, sanctuary state. Send him to San Francisco, Send them to Gavin, let him take care of them. Let Nancy Pelosi take care of them. And that seems to be the one thing that really got under their craw, doesn't it It does. That's probably helpful, but it's not solving the problem. And I don't know what the answer is shown. But as citizens, if we saw somebody breaking into a bank, we would know what to do. We would be able to stop it because they're deal law being broken, and here we're breaking a different law, and it seems like we're helpless. And I think that we as citizens need to somehow, in some way organized to do something about this. This is drastically changing our country and it's going to change our economics. Listen, let me tell you what this is about. Real simple. They're not going to have to run unfortunately on this Friday. It's real simple. It's about inflation at a forty one year high. It's about wide open borders, the largest number of illegal immigrants in any one year, and we still have a quarter of the year left to go. It's about the high cost of gasoling. These are all preventable problems, all caused by radical democratic socialist and climate cultist. Every single problem we have. It's about law and order and safety and security. It's about the things that matter, and you have the power in thirty two days. I can't say it's more. I can't say it with more passion. I can't say it strongly enough. I can't urge you anymore. If you don't see that this country is in tea trouble if we continue down this path, I don't know what I could do. Everybody needs to do their part. Commit to do your part. That's what everyone has to do. Anyway, Appreciate the call, sir, you have a great weekend eight hundred and nine for one Sean you want to be a part of the program, all right, that's gonna wrap things up for today.
