All right, that's the liberal agenda, the leftist agenda. Gladual with us Sean Hannity Show, toll free our numbers eight hundred and nine for one, Sean. You want to be a part of the program. H Andrew Cuomo has a presser and I have not done anything in my public career to be ashamed of. I am not going to resign. We will give you a full and complete report. That's Pelosi talking about HR one. Why listen HR one. All this is is to make every election a COVID twenty twenty style election. And what they want to now do is is register everybody. You get automatic registration. This is what they want. They want a federal right to a mail in ballot with no excuse necessary. Now forgetting the part that HR one would federalize election rules, Yeah, that's the constitutional role of state legislatures. If you were thinking about that part, you would be absolutely correct. And I would then basically take longstanding practice constitutional law and all security measures whatsoever. And let me tell you what this is going to end it nobody will ever have confidence in the results of any election moving forward. And that, by the way, go back to the Baker Commission post twenty two post two thousand election, and the Democrats and the Republicans, and they all said, bad idea, New York Times, all this mail and bad idea. So what they want to do here is everybody's automatically registered. Now to get registered, you don't need any form of voter ID whatsoever as a condition of even obtaining an absentee ballot with zero signature verification state laws requiring mail votes to be notarized, witnessed, etc. Now we'll get rid of that idea. Too late arriving ballots, they'll they'll postmark him. As long as it's postmarked on time, are going to be valid for ten days after election day. Felons can vote you name it, it's in there. And this would result in more chaos, more confusion, anger, and zero competence and what the results are going to be. Now, they can wrap it around anything they want, but that does not negate the fact of what it is. I just told you, because that is what this bill is entirely put together for. So if you're in the state legislature, and this is where people that ask me all the time, what can I do? What can I do? What can I do? Ex tell you what you can do is you better get in touch with your local state legislatures and you need to tell them to make sure that they were formed election laws not to tip the balance of an election, just the opposite, to instill integrity in the election process. If you need voter ID to get into the capitol building of every state and into the US capital, if you need voter ID to get into a Democratic national convention, if you need a photo ID when you're driving an automobile, then you ought to need some type of voter ID to make sure it's the before an election. And I'll tell you one other thing. All of this early voting. Now, there are people that are going to be out of town, out of the country that want to participate in the voting process. They should be given that opportunity. There are other people that for whatever health reasons, may be confined to their home. You know, they can't do what they did in Wisconsin, which was set up in a park and say yeah, you can register here to say that you are not capable of leaving your house on election day, but you have to leave your house to register to get the ballot that says you can't leave your home. It's I mean, that's how insane it got up there. And if you're gonna have partisan observers, it's written into the statutory language of election laws they ought to be able to observe, and not from seventy feet away in need of binoculars and still not be able to see anything if they're even allowed in at all. So it's this is a big, big deal, And you might want to also contact your United States Senator because they're trying to ram this through. Especially if you're in Utah, you may want to call Mitt Romney. If you're in Alaska, you might want to call Lisa Murkowski. If you're in Nebraska, you might want to call Ben Sas the jackass. But that, I mean, honestly, that's that is a big, big, big deal. We'll get to this Cuomo issue with all these new tape coming up, I want to start. You know, I really don't understand this now. Democrats are all all up in arms because of the fact that Governor Abbott, who I happened to be very fond of. I think he's been a great governor for the state of Texas. You know, if you look at the states that did so much better than New York and New Jersey, in Pennsylvania and Michigan and California with COVID. You look to the Republican states, Texas and every state had their moment where things got tough, but that was the entire world. Everybody had tough times. De Santis and Florida, Christy, Nome. You know, there's some of the better known, but there are other governors, more quiet, more demur about it, not as outspoken. They don't take much to the national public limelight in any way, which I think they're missing an opportunity to do so. So we now know that with this problem at the border that they're denying, the Biden administrations denying. We now know that the thousands of the illegal immigrants who expected, based on Joe's invitation come to America are now infected with COVID. Yeah, we have this report. More than one hundred illegal immigrants released by border patrol into Texas since late January have tested positive but the coronavirus following their arrival. Now we've seen the migrant caravans recently making their way to the border. They're saying you can come, but just don't come right now. We're not ready right now. Oh, okay, well, if that's a hundred, I don't see a lot of social distancing, and I don't see a lot of mask wearing. But now they feign outrage at Governor Abbott and the governor of Mississippi for opening up their states because people want to get back to work and back to life and back to their business. Now, I would urge everybody to be careful. You know, if you're gonna be around people and you might have been exposed, to wear your mask if you have, after you know it's appropriate. You need the socially distanced. Do that protect Grandma Grandpa particular? You know, older people use common sense. Everybody knows what the rules are. Whatever, whatever risk you want to take, and you're willing to take for yourself, that's different. But when it affects other people, we ask that you'd be thoughtful Americans, and most people are thoughtful anyway. So they've been released. They have this percentage rate that's six point three percent of the number of total migrants illegal immigrants rapid tested at the city's main bus station where they're being released by the Border Patrol. You can't make this up. I'll tell you that. And after you know then they you know, after border patrol released, then they test positive for COVID. Unreal. It's just you can't make that up. And now they're seeking asylum in America. Well, it would have been nice if they followed Joe's masked mandate, as they were illegally crossing the border and not respecting our laws, sovereignties and borders here. You know. Meanwhile, Biden yesterday calling fighting COVID a wartime effort, a national crisis, But there's no crisis of the border, and people's lives are at stake, and no kidding, Joe, Ony state the obvious, Donald Trump handed you three vaccines, get them out there, and tell your dopey, dumb democratic governors to get their act together and their asking gear and figure out a way to get these shots and people's arms, because they're incapable of doing it. Apparently, Ron de Santis down in Florida. You go to your local publics for crying out loud, and you're getting your vaccine. Biden says his hopeful life will be back to normal this time next year, next year, next year, what are you talking about next year? How about this year? Anyways, Now they're building another twenty thousand beds. They won't let any media inside of these cargo storage containers with bars on the window. And now the projection is one hundred and seventeen thousand unaccompanied child migrants crossing the border. Well, there's going to be up to twenty thousand in May alone. For crying out loud, they're anticipating. Why, because Joe's saying, come to America if you're especially if you're young, because we're gonna let you in and let you be a citizen and give you amnesty. We just hope you vote Democrat for the rest of your life. Then you got this deadly California crash. Anybody noticed what happened. Ice announced yesterday that they're conducting the agents that were conducting a human smuggling investigation at the scene of a devastating crash. Thirteen people dead, eight others injured, and we had human smugglers, twenty five illegal immigrants jammed into one single suv. How do you use jammed twenty five people in a single suv. But that's open borders, that's not enforcing our nation laws. Biden administration arguing that the surge is a challenge, but it's not a crisis, while we had a guy on yesterday said no, it's a crisis. Smugglers pushing you know, triple digit groups of families and children across the border. And then what are we doing? Well, Biden and Obama built the kids in cages with a bob wire, and then they blame They took video from the Biden Obama years and they played it in twenty eighteen, not in twenty fourteen when they built it. Then they blamed Trump for it. I'm sorry. Now the numbers up to fifteen killed in California, good grief, unbelievable. Twenty five people in one well actually knows twenty eight I misread, so I'm sorry. Twenty eight people in one suv. One hundred and seventeen thousand unaccompanied kids. What do you think that means? That means they're gonna get to be allowed to stay, and then their parents will be allowed to stay. I mean, it's unreal. And migrants are wearing Biden t shirts and the and they won't let anybody in the meeting get in the storage containers. Imagine Donald Trump put and these ships storage containers, kids with bars on the window. And then Trump said yeah, but we've got butterfly paintings on the walls. Oh, how comforting for the kids they can't see outside to report out just thenews dot com that Biden likes to get home every night by seven o'clock so we can get ready for night night time. I wonder if anyone reads hop on Pop or Green Eggs and Ham in the White House, you know that Biden, Obama, Kamala, Harris, Michelle all praise doctor SEUs, all of them, and Obama even going as far as saying, yeah, no, no, Everything you need to learn about life you learn from doctor SEUs. Wow. Way do you see this new book? It actually says Biden won the White House by putting your dumb on goal in the basement strategy. I'm glad you have US E one hundred and nine four one. Sean, you want to be a part of the program. There's a new book out. What's interesting about it it's it's not written by anybody you'd know in conservative media. The authors, one guy's name is Jonathan Allen NBC News, Amy Parness writing for The Hill, and they talk about how the stars aligned for Joe Biden, previous two time loser presidential hopeful, and succeeded on the third try despite himself lucky how Joe Biden barely won the presidents it's actually very it's just interesting observations to me, and it's there's very few people, it seems, besides myself and a couple of others, that are willing to say what's so clearly obvious, and that is that President Biden won the White House. Well, we have other issues, election associated issues that need to be resolved, to my opinion, to restore integrity and confidence to our process. But putting that aside for a minute, because coronavirus let him stay hidden in the basement and protected his campaign from its biggest liability, that would be Joe Biden. It says the Biden camp ran partly on the strategy of you put your dumb uncle in the basement. This is not a right wing book here referring to the Democratic candidate even former President Obama initially refused to support. They write in the book is seventy eight year old ex Vice president and friend worried that, you know, he could become a bit of a tragic figure, character of an aging politician having a last hurrah if not protected from himself the book says, and by the way they talk about the Trump campaign having been caught off guard, they have some Republican I guess Trump campaign insiders in here and quote, until the COVID thing came, Trump's campaign thought they were winning four hundred electrical votes. I actually believe that probably we would have been accurate according to internal numbers that they had a needed done. Allegedly told an associate they report in the book that COVID was the best thing that happened to him. Mid March, Biden's team converted the basement of his home into a makeshift studio. This is the basement bunker where he could safely issue statements. They used coronavirus as an excuse to keep him in the basement, and it was smart. A Trump advisors quoted as telling the authors Biden was able to hide his biggest weakness, which is himself, and he did it with an excuse that sounded responsible. Then they talk about more detail. It's just an interesting read to me, you know, because there's not many people willing to just state the obvious anymore. All right, twenty five to the top of the hour, So the report goes just the news dot Com even see. I guess they cited CNN fake news. Maybe they got it right, for once stated that the president regularly returns to his private residence at seven pm each day and is more of an early to bed type than both Obama and Trump. Okay, I don't know. Maybe maybe I'm an anomaly. I don't think I am. Maybe I am, but I wouldn't be able to fall asleep at seven pm ever in my life, and I'm granted my schedule is a little different than the average person. Seven o'clock. I don't know any kids that start thinking about going to bed at seven o'clock. Even young kids stay up past eleven o'clock. What title was late, Well, Liam's a lot like his uncle Sean. He didn't like to sleep very much. That would be very accurate. Um, But anyway, seven o'clock, man, oh my gosh, you need to rest to get ready to do nothing. It's very hard to do nothing. And he still looks exhausted. No show, Joe, no show, Joe, no show, nothing up top front. Frell cognitively struggling and people get mad at me for saying it. I think he just failed. Now, I wouldn't say struggling, well, you're being very nice. Yeah, I got him. But then, let me put it this way, it's, you know, his latest gaffs. I mean he's he's clearly, it's he's a little over a month into the jomp here we're not talking. I don't know. I don't see him really exerting, not doing press conferences, not doing it to the union yet. It's March, you know, the plans to do one. Not doing much. He's not doing a hell of a lot of traveling. Looked exhausted for the future. Little trips he had down to Texas seemed like a bit much for him. I guess Air Force One's gonna get a pretty big rest these next couple of however long. I guess he's his term is here anyway. I mean, I don't wish him any I want the country to do well. He lost the needed tandem thing, but that was a slam dunk anyway. Clyburne is pushing the Senate to get rid of the legislative filibuster. He's saying otherwise it will deny people's civil rights. People of color will not be quiet on this issue, and he had one one person saying they might use reconciliation on reparations. That was said. Democrats now jump starting their gun control efforts. Here we go bills introduced Jority Whip Clyburne, Mike Thompson. They want to expand background gun checks we already have them. Would expand how long the FBI can delay a sale before completing from three to twenty days. Wow, so much for your Second Amendment rights. They're coming for yeah, hell, yeah, We're coming for your guns. Bozo Rourke. Now senators are pushing for COVID checks to continue until COVID is history. How about we open up the country and another story. You got another senator and one Democratic senator one I'm sorry, one representative. One senator announcing Tuesday they're introducing legislation. Has set up a plan to make Puerto Rico estate everything we told you that they would do. AOC calls the minimum wage debate embarrassing. And Donald Trump supported is supporting Senator Tim Scott, who we like a lot on this show. I like Senator Scott Biden won the White House. It's like to put your dumb uncle in the basement strategy. Ouch, that's a little that's a little painful. Anyway, He didn't he had near attending to not belong taking that position. I've accepted her withdrawal. Yeah, well, you really didn't have any choice. One interesting side note, Lisa Murkowski gave an interview to the Hill and said that they never even asked her if she would be open to considering the nomination, which might have countered Joe Mansion's vote on this Biden administration as ease pressure on communist China. According to Senator Ted Cruz, does that surprise you? Why wouldn't that they have such a good relationship to Biden's with China, the one point by billion dollars Bank of China deal, hundred thousand dollars shopping spree for his zero experience Hunter. Speaking of Hunter, Attorney General Merrick Garland says he hasn't discussed the case with President Biden and that the ongoing criminal probe is active. I have no hope that we have equal justice or application of our laws in this country anymore. I just don't none whatsoever. All right now, Andrew Cuomo speaks, I want to play him from earlier today, and he did nothing, if you believe him, absolutely nothing wrong ever in his public career. That he is ashamed of. He's not going to resign. But listen, I'm not in this business to make people feel uncomfortable. I'm here to make them to help them. That's the essence of what I do. What I do. I do not believe I have ever done anything in my public career that I am ashamed of. I don't think today is a day for politics. I wasn't elected by politicians. I was elected by the people of the State of New York. I'm not going to resign. I worked for the people of the state of New York. They elected me, and I'm going to serve the people of the state of New York. And by the way, we have a full plate. We have COVID, we have recovery, we have rebuilding, we have a teetering New York City, we have a terrible financial picture. We have to do vaccines. So no, I'm going to do the job the people of the state elected me to do. Yeah, the I Believer Caucus, they have been so tepid and timid or even outright silent in all of this. Here's the interesting thing. New York Post had a piece on this how Cuomo has been quick to call for the resignations of powerful Albany lawmakers accused of sexually harassing aids Vito Lopez, Mika Kellner, Dennis Prasaka. I don't know how you say his last name, but you won't do the same with Cavanaugh. Same thing with Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh needs to take a lie detector test. I believe the accuser. I believe not. So long ago demanded two assembly members immediately deny allegations of sexual harassment or resign. What was he gonna take a Is he gonna take a lie detector test himself? Considering he did that? Twenty twelve, he demanded Brooklyn Assemblyman Vito Lopez resigned from his post after two female aids accused him of pretty much the same thing. Sexual harassment at the workplace cannot be tolerated in any shape or form. These allegations, and if true, the governor believes he should resign. Oh, I mean that's the case. Why doesn't he apply the same standards. This is what's fascinating about this. You know, Biden, Harris, they all go a wall on this. Now. Joe's got his own problem here, because we've already played for you, Tara Reid, we played for you this woman from I believe in the Vado flores her allegations against Joe Biden. So I guess they gotta is anyone gonna ask circle back Jensaki whether or not she'll circle back and give us an answer about whether or not Joe believes now that he wants an investigation in a Cuomo, there should be one into him. If Andrew Cuomo goes down. How do we not apply the same standard to Joe Biden. How does Joe Biden not apply the same standard to himself for that matter, because he's been credibly accused, not just a sexual harassment, in one case, a brutal sexual assault by Tara Reid. We've seen the photo now of Cuomo man handling a young woman in the middle of a wedding reception. I mean, who puts their hands around somebody's neck like that and kisses them. I mean it's bizarre. And you got the picture of the hands around the neck of that girl. I mean it's oh man, We've have enough creepy Joe videos out there, sniffing hair, rubbing backs, uncomfortably touching and comfortably getting in people's faces, uncomfortably kissing like on the I mean it's just all grosses me out. Compared to I guess Biden Andrew. I don't know. Maybe maybe maybe we ought to investigate both of them. It's amazing how silent Kamala Harris is. She was the biggest I believer of them all. Let me play Tara Reid for you. Here's what Tara Reid said about Joe Biden and um against the wall and then his hands were down my skirt and up my skirt and I was wearing UM. I wasn't wearing faces or anything. She was tight with me, and I was pulling away. And what I remember of that time is is feeling shocked, surprised me. There is no real conversation right beforehand. I was obviously floy away and people back and steady man I heard liked me. Should that be investigated? Were the eye believers? They ignored it, ignored it completely interesting. Polls out now, I mean Media Research Center shows the media's failure to properly cover Andrew Cuomo and even on the COVID nursing home despicable scandal. Will all these people died unnecessarily and anyway, when Americans learn about the neglect and his executive order, his favorability after learning about it goes down to twenty five percent and sixty five percent unfavorable. It's amazing the media has protected him in New York so much that he's gotten away from that. The aid whose wet led to the photo of Cuomo grabbing the woman's head, has now resigned from the COVID task force, according to foxnews dot com. So after the third woman has made allegations against Cuomo, calls for his resignation and grow louder. Not just Democratic state legislators, but now the Working Families Party Dave now said his reign of fear, harassment, intimidation cannot continue. The party said we are calling on Governor Cuomo to resign immediately. Cuomo has now lost his emergency powers as the scandal is engulfed as administration. The nursing homes sexual harassment scandals now of completely engulfed Cuomo, and now Democrats, not Republicans, top Democrats, they agree to strip Governor Cuomo of emergency powers granted to him during the pandemic and all the media that was out there kissing his ass the whole time during COVID, as Donald Trump was, is he actually building the hospitals, converting them to COVID nineteen capability. Thousands and thousands of beds, including the hospital ship. Eighty percent of these beds remained empty as he's signing this order to send them back to nursing homes. Unbelievable. It was a teaming up of Nancy Pelosi with Cuomo for a message on sexual assault. Does it look so good? At the twenty fifteen event, too many women who are sexually assaulted joined New York Governor Cuomo to discuss why enough is enough? All talk. Schumern has now finally weighed in. The mister I believer himself say, there's very serious and troubling. Hey, Chucky, do you believe the accusers? Well, somebody in the New York media asked that simple question, do you believe the accusers? Simple question? Somebody asked, you know, Kamala Harris, the same question, asked Joe Biden, the same question, do you believe the accusers? Ask that question. One that's going after Cuomo the most is Art's nemesis, Comrade de Blasio. He can't govern, he should have resigned if this is true, blah blah blah. Anyway, so they remove these executive. How no, then you got joyless, Bihar. How does Megan McCain do this job every day? I have no idea. I actually knew Megan McCain. I met her when her dad was running for president. It's very nice. She worked at Fox for a while, we were colleagues and radio for a while. I don't Probably she's more left a center than I am, but so what or more center than I am. I'm more conservative Anyway, She's got her and I felt sorry. I always felt sorry for Elizabeth Hasselback, like, man, you put yourself in this environment. I used to do that show, Linda, Remember when I was stupid enough to get up and do these dopey morning shows that Today's show? Gma, um the view? How dumb? Well? Why did I do that? What was what it was I possibly thinking at the time when I said yes to those interviews? I think you were still asleep personally. If you go back and look off the tapes, you might agree. I might agree. Our two Sean Hannity's show eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean, you want to be a part of this sake travaganzas so much news to get to, but that music that sound, that that unique sound that could only mean one thing. Leonard skinnerd and simple man, which means all things. Bill O'Reilly dot com, mister O'Reilly, sir, how are you welcome to the program? I'm overworked, Kennedy. You know you're not over work. Where can I file a claim? I want to file a claim? What because you're on? You're on for one segment a week. Oh excuse me for putting you through the trauma of on Bill O'Reilly dot com. I got my radio thing. You know this is a highlight exactly sure, it makes you happy. It I actually get to humanize you because people doing to do No, it's it's actually it's called mission impossible. Let's let's be blunt here. You got to go to school for that. I've been studying it for years now. It's I've got a doctorate in this. Uh. Let's I got a lot of want to ask you about this week. I want to start with the opening of Texas, Mississippi, these other states. Look at how great Florida is doing. Look at the mess that is New York, New Joysy, Uh, Pennsylvania, Michigan. Oh, look at Gavin Newsom. He goes into a restaurant. Restaurants are closed. Oh but I didn't eat anything, and you can't make this crap up anyway, here's Governor Abbott. So today I'm issuing a new executive order that resent most of the earlier executive orders. Effective next Wednesday, all businesses of any type are allowed to open one hundred percent. That includes any type of entity in Texas. Also, I am ending the statewide mask mandate. All right, the mask mandate goes Bill O'Reilly thoughts. I would have done the same thing had I been the governor Texas in Austin, but I also would attacked on. We advise people to continue wearing the masks, especially if you're in crowds, and we advise you not to go into crowds so a distance. But I think that the time has come to open up the economy that will need to higher COVID cases, No doubt it will. So you'll see a spike in Texas, but with the vaccine now zipping in real quick, that'll be mitigated. So rather than wade another two or three weeks where small business owners are just getting murdered, I think Abbott did the right thing. I think he did too and I would use Look, Bill, people are smart. We don't give people credit. And everybody now knows about masks. Everybody knows the risks about social distancing. We know the risk about driving a car and getting in an airplane. So everybody knows what the rules are now. Now individual Americans living in a free society will decide how much risk they want to take on, which, by the way, people in nursing homes weren't able to do. And I agree with you now. On the vaccine, you and I both have said I'm one, my number finally gets called, I will get the vaccine. It's not been Bill. They're not calling, they're not knocking down my door to give me the vaccine. Yeah, Cuomo said, no vaccine vanity a matter of fact, if you have a cough on them right, Yeah, no, Croomo has put state troopers that you don't know this, but about a quarter of a mile away from your house. So there's not going to be any vaccine for you. He's lucky. I'm still here because I ought to take all my tax money that I give this state every year and I ought to get the hell out of here, and you should too, just saying well, I hope I don't have to, but I might. But I did get the vaccine um, and I understand that I could still have some kind of bacteria that I pass on to someone else, even though it wouldn't affect me. I wouldn't get ill um. So I'll still be very responsible. I think that's the right word. But you said something interesting. You said that people are smart. Have you ever watched CNN Nannity of your I think that is so. That is such a checkmate. I have no answer for that. I can see the point I tap out. So you know, it's all about getting drunk. That's what it's about. People will tell you this, but I'm being serious now. That people go and they get loaded, and they stagger around and they do things they wouldn't do. This has been going on since the cavemen. But when you have a pandemic, and so I was interested to see the santis and the authorities in Miami, which they're saying in day Kenny said, look, we know we're gonna have a lot of people coming down for spring break. So here's the deal. You can't bring boos on the beach. Excellent, all right, smart, We have a midnight curfew in Miami, so you can't stay out all night because you're gonna get loaded. It's all about that. And there are some people who are just selfish and stupid and not a good combination, who will do high risk things and then we'll spread the disease. So I think that it's the end of the cycle for COVID. I think by me, this will be you know, pretty much on a run, right. Can I just tell you something, though, Bill, I'm gonna be honest. I'm not afraid of COVID. I'm in great shape. I trained an hour and a half a day, as you know, and I work out hard. I don't have well. I have one minor, little health thing that would would probably put me higher on the list. But I'm not going to do that, and I'm not afraid of it like so many others are. But here's why I wear the mask. If I ever had it and didn't know I had it, I would never want to get anyone else sick. That's how I feel about it. That's right, that's not the main reason that way. You know, most people, not most many people are very self centered. They're going to do what they want to do. So when Abbott and Mississippi did the same thing in other states will follow that there should always be Look, we're gonna let everybody open up. We know it's crippling small business. We want our state to get back quickly to the to a good economic place. But please be responded. All right, I gotta ask Bill, O'Reilly now that I have you on the line, now that you're working so hard, um, and I'm taking all of your time away from you, your precious time. Um. But a serious question about cancel culture wokeness. If I never knew I'd no such word. Start, let's go. Let's go back to last week. Last week it was mister and missus potato head. Now it's potato head. Now it's doctor SEUs. And look, I'm not I can't say verbatim. I've looked at what the New York Post put in today in terms of what people find so offensive about doctor SEUs. If I'm if, I have to have a hard time figuring it out myself and not seeing it. It's not that transparent. And Kamala Harris and Michelle Obama and Barack Obama all praised Doctor SEUs, and Joe Biden had recommended doctor SEUs. It's not like it's that obvious to anybody, right, And the question is this is getting worse and worse and worse. You know. And Bill Maher, who I don't like, I don't like them, but I've always defended his right to be controversial, always stuck up for them. You know. Bill Maher is right. It's this is going to get really ugly and bad for everybody. This plays into the tutolitarian left strategy of knocking out free speech. It's a bigger picture than just a cancel culture. So if you are publishing the books of Doctor Seuss written in nineteen twenty or thirty, and doctor SEUs puts in something that's offensive today, you take it out of the book. You can edit books, they're easily edited, and then you keep the book because it's of value too children. But take out whatever passage you find offensive. That's easy. You don't have to cancel doctor SEUs or mister Potato Head or anybody else. Okay, But this pattern is driven by one one group, and the progressives are driving a don't see this on the right, think about that. You don't see the cancel culture, the political correctness, all of this social justice stuff on the right, It doesn't exist. It's coming from one place, and that place I call the Maoists because of the cultural revolution in China. It's coming from we are going to obliterate any kind of American tradition. Now there is no human being. There is no writer, there is no composer, there is no one whose resume is perfect. Christy nom put it very well at SEEPAC on Saturday. She said, you evaluate people on the greater good, what they did for the country, as opposed to their personal failings. Thomas Jefferson was a slaveholder. He should not have been, in my opinion, all right. However, the good that he did for mankind and providing freedom, the framework for freedom for billions of people, override that. You don't cancel Thomas Jefferson. This is just common sense. But when you are held been in destroying an entire culture, as the progressive left is, they want to destroy every part of our culture. This is the mechanism they are now using. We're going to cancel O'Reilly, we'll cancel Hannity, we'll cancel Fox News, will cancel everybody. You know what the difference is is we've known about this, our entire careers, or at least I have my entire career. I've been dealing with this, You've been dealing with this. Yeah, there are people that's been tens and even at this point, hundreds of millions of dollars monitoring conservative voices that I disagree with politically in the hopes that they'll get one thing, one phrase, one sentence, one imperfect moment that they can then use to weaponize politically and bludging them off the air or deep platform is their new term. And these people are very well paid for doing this, Okay, And unless we have people protecting us, they'll get us. They'll pick us off. The only one I'm going to tell you the only reason that we've survived as long as we have, and that's the audience. The audiences. The audience has protected us because I'll never forget. And it blew me away. When they were the latest attempt, I don't remember. There's been so many of them, Bill, I mean, it's almost one a day now, but the latest big attempt to start an advertising boycott. I had nothing to do with this. Bill. Unbeknownst to me, all these videos carried Coffeemaker had had sent out a tweet agreeing to this boycotts for some reason, and everybody started killing their their Carrig machines, golf clubs, bloods drop from balconies, shotguns, hockey sticks, baseball bats. I mean at the videos were hilarious. Now, the way it ended was this Carrig pulled back and then anybody that could show us that they stuck up for me and ruined their coffee machine. Um, I bought them a new one. How about Linda, how many we buy? Total? We ordered about six hundred of those curigs um back in twenty seventeen. So so we we bought all of those coffee machines bill, all of them people. And that was my way of saying, you know what, Wow, you blew me away, you stood up. You didn't have to do that, thank you. But consider this that happened, and I remembered, well I think five years six years ago. Now the far left progressives to figure it out. Yeah, Hannity and O'Reilly might be able to mobilize people, so it's not as easy to boycott. So now we're going to get the social media in Silicon Valley to do it for us. Will silence their voices so they can't rally the folks. It's more dangerous, isn't it. Bill, Well, that's the newest strategy. Use this social media to censor people we disagree with, will use them as surrogates so that if they want to fight back, they're not going to be able to. And who's the best example of that. I think it would be President Trump. You know, Bill, I will tell you this. I don't want to cancel anybody's show. And now I'll tell you what I do. When I see shows I don't like, I don't watch them. I mean it's you know, when you think of all the choices and options. Look, I say three hours a day every day. That's all I ask on radio, one little hour at night on Hannity on TV. I can't force people to watch and listen. The best thing I can do and when I try to do every day to the best of my ability, and and that is to do the best shows I can. You know, inform entertain news, you're not going to get from the media mob that that's what we do every day. And and I've been very blessed with a great career, but it comes from the audience, and the support of the audience is it's incalculable. We don't succeed without it. But I'm worried that the social media stuff is going to cut down on the audience's ability to hear us. Yeah, I think out of mind. That is a big worry that I have. Bill O'Reilly All things Bill O'Reilly dot com. Um, if you if you want to talk to the symbolman himself, feel free. My last question of Bill O'Reilly's this, does Andrew Cuomo survive thissih run for a fourth term? Uh, he's not going to resign. Um. I don't think they'll boot him on the on the misconduct stuff, but the FBI on the nursing home stuff, that is a bigger problem for him. All right, Bill O'Reilly, thank you. What time's your news program tonight? No spin news. Bill O'Reilly dot com begins at six? All right, all things Bill O'Reilly Bill O'Reilly dot com. By the way, if you miss it at six, you can see it at seven any other time except nine to ten. Sorry that's not allowed. We'll see you next week. Bill. Thank you. Eight hundred nine f one seawan our toll free number when we come back. Congressman Ralph Norman and Congressman Tom McClintock, and they're talking about the looming threat of HR one. It is a real, clear present danger. If you want free and fair voting with integrity, that you'll have confidence and results in straight ahead twenty five to the top of the hour, eight hundred and nine four one sewn. You want to be a part of the program, let me tell you why the bill the Democrats are pushing in the House today is so dangerous, and I mean it is dangerous. It's called HR one. You've heard me talking about it. It's got basically as packward provisions that would bypass our own constitution, state legislatures and their ability to provide the means and methods for voting in their particular state and off the bat would be unconstitutional in my opinion, because it would federalize the election rules and frankly longstanding practices. It would end security measures, integrity, competence in the ballot. In other words, take twenty twenty and jack it up on as much testosterone and human growth hormone as possible, because that's what it would do. It would create a federal right to a mail in ballot. No excuse needed. Whatsoever. It would expand out voting, I guess pretty much into perpetuity. You can start voting now for twenty twenty four. It's nuts. Registered voters wouldn't be made to submit to any form of voter ID as a condition of obtaining even an absentee ballot. There'll be no signature verification or affirmation at all. State laws requiring mail votes to be notarized signed by witnesses would be trumped. Later. Arriving ballots, if postmarked on time, would be valid per nationwide, per ten days after the election day. Felons would be given the right to vote. Everybody would be registered automatically, and it would never It will create more chaos and frankly, from my standpoint, eliminate any hope of ever having confidence and integrity in our election system. Ever. Again, it's a bad idea. Now, why are the Democrats trying to do this now? Because they see it works to their advantage. No voter ID to get into a democratic convention. You need ID to get into the capital, You need voter you need some type of identification. All right, So this is a all this is is let's figure out how many people that we can get to vote, and it's okay. If you're not really supposed to vote, we won't know. That's that's what this bill does. Doesn't lend any credibility, integrity, or competence in the system. Is Nancy Pelosi talking about it. We have plenty of work to do in the Joe Biden administration. We're going to build the infrastructure of America in a green way. We're going to make sure healthcare is available to all Americans, lower the cost of prescription drugs. We're going to have HR one HR one right off the bat, the about cleaner of government so that we can reduce the role of big dark special interest money. It prevents us from having policies that the American people need, and our doubts that we can do unless we reduce the role of big dark money. And then we'll have a big government form group that will determine the veracity and truthfulness of ads of candidates made up. You know who will be the arbiters of such Now it should be candidates monitoring it themselves. That's what it should be. But it won't be. Now I'll tell you this. It's it's their going playbook. Republicans are racist, Republicans or sexist, the misogynistic, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, transphobic. Add that now to the list. They want dirty air and water. They want grandma and grandpa in a wheelchair to be thrown over a cliff by some vascally Republican. That's what they want anyway. Fighting back against us, we have Congressman Ralph Norman and also with US Congressman Tom McClintock with us. Thank you both for being here. Am I Tom McClintock, Am I describing this the right way? Oh? I think so. And we've got we've got to understand what they're doing to the system. You remember the days when we would all wait until the campaigns were over, every candidate had their say. Then on a single day we called it election day for a reason, we went to the local polling place. It was usually in a neighbor's garage, or a local elementary school or the fire station around the corner. We all took the time because we knew it was important. We brought our children to watch the process and we taught them to respect it. We looked our neighbors on the precinct board in the eye as we identified ourselves and signed the voter role. They handed us our ballot. We took that into a curtained booth where nobody could look over our shoulder. Nobody could pressure us to vote a certain way. Not a family member, not a friend, not a precinct worker. It was up to us. We cast our vote according to our own conscience. We then handed it right back to the neighborhood, put it in a locked ballot box, and at eight o'clock the polls closed. We knew exactly how many votes had been cast, and by ten o'clock we knew who the winners were. Look at what the Democrats have done to destroy that system. Now they're sending this bill would send out ballots to every name on the ballot, every name on the voter rules, including those that they know have moved or died years ago. They're then followed up by ballot harvesters to collect those ballots. There's no chain of custody from the time they're putting the mail until the time they're returned. They've taken all of the anti fraud measures we had out of the law. Even if that doesn't result in fraud, and it will, it certainly destroys the perception of legitimacy. I think it's just so dangerous and I think you described it perfectly, Congressman Ralph Norman. Well, you know, Sean, Democrats are good at naming bills. You know, for the People Act is laughable. It's against the People Act. I mean, who would have thought, Shan that the federal government it wants to take over under this bill our voting process. It eliminates I told, voter integrity. And as Tom mentioned, I mean six to one match. You can put up two hundred dollars for Canada in the government can match it for a twelve hundred dollars. To think that no voter id to think that they would register convicted felons. And I tell you that the sad part about this is what's happening at the border. Every illegal and they say eleven million, it's going to be more like fifteen to twenty. They're going to get a driver's license and uh in resting to vote. That's the that's the Democrats. Well you don't even need, you know, but they're gonna make it. You don't even need a driver's license, that's the point. Yeah, Well, so I don't even need to register to vote. You just show up on election day or mail in your ballot and an election day. You can register on election day. Great, we have a lot of time to vet you in time. They want to and just like Tom was mentioned, Sean, they want to make it like New York, which is a liberal state. We had on November third, that was the day we cast our ballot. We just found out about Claudia at Tenney winning. Uh, this is February. I mean, it's it's it's so brazen and radical, and uh, it's time for the Senate. It's going to pass the House, unfortunately, but the Senate should reject every part of this. There's nothing that's good about this bill. This will eliminate voter integrity as we have known it is. There no democrat at all that sees the danger in this, not one, not a single democrat there. Tom. Well, you know they're Democrats. Used to the Baker Commission, which is a bipartisan commission and noted the the the greatly increased chance for fraud in a mail in ballot system. Uh so yeah, they're once we're democrats who are concerned about it. Not so much anymore. But I think every rank and five Democrat ought to be concerned because it's you know, every fraudulent vote disenfranchises an honest citizen. And when you're setting the potential for thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of fraudulent votes, that's an awful out of honest citizens who are now disenfranchised. These are pretty scary times. All right, Let's see what the Senate does. As long as Joe Manchin and sent him on. And I guess I have to worry about Murkowski and a Mitt Romney and Ben Sass the jackass, but as long as they hold in the Senate, they'll be fine. Thank you both for being here. Eight hundred and nine four one shot. I've been telling you this is bad stuff. Becky is in Michigan. Hey, Becky, how are you? Thank you so much for taking my calls on. I just have to tell you I have so much I could talk to you about because I listen to your show every day. But I want to say that I miss Rush so much. I missed listening to him on my lunch break. He taught me so much. I know, Brute, we all miss him. I am done with the cancel culture. I love doctor Seuth and I'm tired of everything for my childhood being canceled because somebody's offended by it. So it just it needs to stop. I cancel basebook about two weeks ago, and I've never been happier. So listen, I'm telling you getting off social media. What I've notist is this. And there was some study or report or article I read said that there's now on like Twitter, for example, it's now six to one liberal versus conservatives. Because why why should we waste our time on a platform that does not want to heaven, hear or listen to any views that dare to differ than their own. What's the point, which is why I don't care what competitor ends up emerging, you know, if it's Parlor or gab or rumbull. And there's a lot of other people that are trying to put together social media sites that will challenge Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and so on and so forth, to YouTube and whatnot. I want to support any of them because and and by the way, it's not necessarily the easiest of decisions. You don't want white nationalist over racist, you know, evil lunatics on there either. So there's how to be I assume some level of monitoring of this, and but that's part of a business model. They will have to build out themselves. And but I do believe in the ability of people to in and of themselves not pay attention to dope, be dumb, insane people. That's true too. Personal responsibility, it's a it's an amazing thing, but I just I don't think it brings out the best in people, especially right now when everybody's divided and nicely put into the little identity boxes by the last they want to keep us boxed up, and so everybody is is just not getting along and it's just not bringing out the best in people, you know. And I mean I'm missing in my friends and family. But to me, the stress and some of the other things that was causing is a time sucker and stuff like that. It just it's it's not worth it. I hope more people can get off of at least Facebook, because it's just no good. So, yeah, well, we appreciate you being a calling in and stand on top of it. Yeah we almost rushed Becky. We do. He's eeroplaceable and that's a big void for everybody. Back to our busy telephones. Carol, North Carolina next Sean Hannity Show. Hey Carol, how are you. Yes, good afternoon, Sean. Thank you for having me on. I would thank you yesterday. Oh yes, sir. I was listening yesterday on my way home from work, and there is a discussion about the book Sneeches on the Beaches, and one of the gentlemen that was speaking. It was a little hard at some points because they kept talking over each other a little bit, but the one guy was saying that he didn't like the book and that it was somehow racially offensive. Well, when the book was written in sixty one, it was not. It was supposed to be about the racial issues, not about there being a problem. And the problem I had was what he was saying was that everybody doesn't want to be the same. In other words, what I'm hearing is people don't want to be in a melting pot. They want to be part of a salad where everybody, you know, has their own special part. But I couldn't figured out why he didn't, and he didn't explain it very well from where I stood of why the book was so bad. I don't know if he's saying that, if it's you know, the black folks without the stars or the African Americans. Why would they want the stars? I'm really not sure, but I will agree with what you were saying earlier that this is getting very crazy. And I am a registered Democrat. I don't want anyone on your show to faint to hear that. I guess you would have to call me a centrist or an open minded thinker. But some of these things, in my opinion, have gone way far, and it's a kind of what I call drinking the kool aid. Then I'm personally not interested in doing Look if it was if it was as obvious and transparent, And again, my kids are older. It's been a long time since I've read Hopom Pop or Green Eggs and Ham or any of these books, or Goodnight Moon was one of my kid's favorites back in the day, and I saw But I have my team. We're doing a deep dive, and there is the ability to edit out. If there's something that now through the prism of time and history, would be viewed as quote insensitive or really really overtly hurting people's opinions, you could certainly edit that part out and keep the book the good parts of the book. Because this is a popular series. That's part one and the second part of all this. Well, Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Michelle and Barack Obama never found anything offensive about it, so I assume they were familiar with it because they said everything you need to know, Obama said, is you can learn from doctor Seuss. It's like the book everything I needed to learn in life, I learned in kindergarten. So it's you know, it's sad that we have really really pivotal important issues and this is what people spend their time on. And the problem here is it's only getting worse. You know, mister potato head, missus potato head, just potato heads. It's like I can't even believe we're discussing these things at times, but we are. Carol, God bless you. Thank you, appreciate you being with us. So glad you're here. Quick break right back, all right, news rounds up, information overload our Sean Hannity Show. Thank you for being with us. Eight hundred and nine four one. Sean, you want to be a part of this program. So Governor Andrew Cuomo gave this press conference today. Now I had a caller to this program yesterday. Rightly pointing out the caller was right that well, the polls still shown like a forty seven percent approval rating even with all this going on, said, Nah, the impact of this hasn't hit yet. And sure enough we got a new poll out today. Yeah, the disapproval rating is up to forty seven point eight percent. Approval rating is thirty eight percent. So Cuomo's approval rating is going way down. So's he's just dug his heels in then saying I'm not going to resign. Let's play it. I do not believe I have ever done anything in my public career that I am ashamed of. I don't think today is a day for politics. I wasn't elected by politicians. I was elected by the people of the state of New York. I'm not going to resign, which is very reminiscent of I'm going to get back. I did not have sex with that woman. I've done a single time. I'm gonna get back to the work of American people. Okay, Well, indeed, I did have an inappropriate relationship with Vonnie and Lewinski was only a couple of times. For crown out loud. You gotta cut me some slack here, anyway, joining us now to discuss John McLaughlin and his brother Jim, one of which is usually on time, one usually shows up late. They're with McLaughlin and associates this poll on Cuomo. You couple that with the opening of Texas and Mississippi and the great, stark and complete difference in the handling of COVID from the vaccine to shutdowns, draconian shutdowns, the handling of it by Republican governors like the Santas down in Florida, Christie Noman South Dakota. You can't have a more glaring difference. I'm not sure John McLaughlin that digging his heels in and showing zero humility is going to help him out here, absolutely right, And Sean just to be to be honest, to be fully transparent. We've been a long time poster for Congressman Lee's eldon and Lee is now exploring this race, but he's been exploring it. But Governor Cuomo was week before this, even with the glowing media coverage. And when you think about that that National Media Research Center pole that Brembozell did, where before they learned about the facts about the nursing home scane of the National sample. He had a forty five to thirty five favorable to unfavorable rating nationally, but once they learn it collapses to twenty five and sixty five sixty five negative. So that means that a lot of people haven't heard about the nursing home scandal and the clip that you played from his zoom press conference this year. And remember the New York Press has been, you know, just terribly obedient to him all year. They knew about the nursing home scandal earlier this year, and now they're covering they asked him. All they asked him about was the sexual aressment scandal. The sexual aressment scandal he can control because the Attorney General has to submit to him weekly reports and they also have to sign off on expenditures for him. But the real scandal that would be covered up is the US Attorney and the Justice Department are supposed to be investigating the fact that he lied about the nursing home deaths. That last year he ordered COVID positive patients instead of going to the Javit Center, instead of going to the hospital ship the President Trump had cent, he put them back in nursing homes and fifty percent more according to the Attorney General's report, fifty percent more seniors died than he had reported, and they were covering that up, and the news meet didn't really cover it until the Attorney general broke that story. So so his numbers that you saw in the Emerson pole that was taken March first. Second, his job writing collapses to thirty eight percent. He was already weak. Last December, I saw a statewide pole. He had a forty five percent unfavable. And most New York Has thinks he's been there three terms. It's too long. So you know, he's doubling down on trying to fight to stay in office like his father did back in the twentieth century. But New York has you know, it's still early, but you know we've had enough of this. Well now these calls Jim McLaughlin for him to resign as they're getting louder every day. We have, for Exam Pemples, someone the Working Famili's Party has now joined the call for Cuomo to resign. You have Democrat again. Democrats are the ones that are leading the charge here, not Republicans. The Working Family's Party. They backed Cuomo's unsuccessful twenty eighteen primary challengers Cynthia Nixon. Just to point things out, but Andrew Cuomo's reign of fear, harassment intimidation cannot continue. I agree with John, but the problem on the sexual harassment allegation front is he believed everybody and he was quick to tell others to resign over sexual harassment claims. Jim, and he was out there, including Vito Lopez and a bunch of other people. They need and what he said, well, he actually said there should be a light detector test and that he believed the accusers in the Kavanaugh case for crying out loud. Is he going to take a lighted detective test again? The medium mob give him a pass. They don't ask him any of these tough questions. Yep. And Sean, you're right, and I've said this. If he was a Republican, he would have been gone a long time ago. Just think what they did to President Trump and the way they went after him on these baseless charges, whether it was Russia or whether it was the Ukraine investigation, whether it was the last impeachment, a total joke. And when you think about Andrew Cuomo, you know, being incompetent, unethical and a creep. It's a really really bad sign right now. And he's he's basically he's making build the Blasia look good. That's how bad that Andrew Cuomo has gotten. Think about this and that Emerson Paul his reelect number was only thirty six percent. That's it, thirty six percent. And the point you make about it's getting worse every day, because it is getting worse every day. And I'll tell you the media in New York and forget the national media too, but the media in New York should be ashamed of themselves because the only people that have been covering the nursing home scandals that have been covered Now all of a sudden, there's covering these sexual harassment scandals. But it's just been basically Sean Hannedy Fox News, in the New York Post. They're the only ones that were covering the nursing home scandal. And we've seen in our polling, the more people know about it, the less they like. Andrew Cuomo says, you didn't do anything inappropriate. What about the picture John McLaughlin of him putting both hands tightly around the neck of this young woman. There are three specific women that make allegations against him, And I mean, I would never consider ever touching anybody that way in my life. I just wouldn't do It's it's so invasive to me. And but that's my own personal standards. It's sort of like Joe Biden sniffing hair and his creepy back massages and touching and getting in your face and kissing it. Oh it's gross. Well, you see, you were raised right in Nassau County. You know, you came from any her standley that they didn't allow that. And by the way, with your producer, with Lynda McLaughlin, you know, I mean, this is the McLaughlin Show today. She should be on, but she wouldn't allow this stuff. So it's like, so Cuomo, what was interesting about that press conference was the first question on the zoom question called came from Marsha Kramer, very long time, well known reporter, and her question was, well, there's lots of pictures like that around the state over the years with you, where you're touching people and hugging them and kissing them. This is not that kind of a picture. This is not that kind of a picture at all. So here comes the cover up where they're trying to rationalize and quite this where he does this all the time. No, he doesn't. The woman said it was inappropriate. The young woman said she moved her hand off him, and he was he was trying to kiss her, and the charges of from miss Boylan who's running for Manhattan Borough president. He said it was an unwanted kiss. So I mean, the guy should have got a dating app. This is like crazy and it's just and they're about to give him another free ride and let him survive. But Deny New York Times, to their credit, has floated these stories, and I think what's happened though, there's a reason here if you remember ron Kim making the statement that he's been intimidated, threatened, bullied by Cuomo and then the journalists that gave a very similar story. My suspicion here is this has been percolating for a long time, probably well known to those that deal with him and Albany and his staff that this is how they run things up there. And I think probably people now feel strength in numbers and now they feel free to tell the story because they feel offended. Over time, even Democrats now have agreed to remove his emergency powers. As it relates to COVID. You know, then you got the hypocrisy of the media, joyless Bihar, maybe we should ignore everything about Andrew Cuomo's sexual harassment allegations. I'm like, really, you know, Kirsten jilliber and all the eye believers, I believers, Kavanaughs unfit to serve. Nobody's saying it, although evenly, I guess just today or late yesterday, Schumer finally weighed in a little late for him considering his outfront on Kavanaugh. So it's I think in the end, you got Democrats that always rally around they're fellow Democrats, regardless of what allegation has made, and you got a double standard and mass hypocrisy once again. Jim McLaughlin, you know, I just saw Thomas Avanado, who's a Democratic assemblyman there, and this is typical Democratic response. He wants Cuomo to resign now. And why did he say he wants him to resign because it's gonna hurt him in the elections. That's the problem with the Democrats shown whether it's a pandemic, whether it's immigration, whether it's about economic lockdowns, it's always about politics and power with them, and talk about being tone death if you really watched the pres conference that Andrew Cuomo just had. It was totally insulting to those three women. I mean, these were the people that said, hey, we've got to believe all accusers and whatnot. And now because it's one of their own, Andrew Cuomo, he's allowed not to believe them. He's allowed to trash the women and basically say, hey, they don't know what they're talking about. I mean, it was a really, really insulting press conference. But the thing is that's the problem within Andrew Cuomo. This guy has spent his entire adult life in power in Washington, DC or in Albany. He's never had any sort of repercussions. And up to this point, you make the point Democrats weren't speaking out. Now you've got some, but the only reason why they're speaking out against them is because they think it's bad politics. And what you're going to continue to see here is now you've got I'm down in Florida after the Seapack conference, and by the way, showing everybody at Seapack is where's Hannity? Where the heck has handed? But entity took the year off. I've been down there too much. No, they needed you down there. It was I think they could do fine without me, But you're very kind. I love our friends at Seedpack. Everywhere you turn down here, you're seeing New Yorkers and you're talking to New Yorkers because they see how bad the state has gotten, the city has gotten. It's not safe anymore, the economy stinks. So unfortunately they're all coming down here to Florida. I mean, it's just a real tragedy and it's all been on Andrew Cuomo's watch. All right, quick break, right back. We'll continue with John and Jim McLaughlin, our posters. Listen, if you have independent contractors status in terms of tax filing, if you're if you own a small business, let me help you save money. That's one eight hundred account. You just make the switch. You'll say, more on taxes, less spend less on accounting. A lot of changes come into the tax code laws. It's all straight ahead. And as we continue our posters, John McLoughlin, Jim McLaughlin, Mclockolt and associates. What do you think of this new book that came out, John Mclockolin, It's called Lucky, How Joe Biden barely won the presidency and how the Biden camp ran partly on the strategy quote you put your dumb uncle in the basement referring to Joe and how Joe Biden barely won the presidency. And you know, it was interesting that you got a guy from NBC News and another guy from the Hill. These are not conservatives here talking about how the stars aligned, that they were able to pull this off by hiding and until the COVID thing came, we were winning four hundred electoral votes. They quote a Trump supporter as saying, and from someone from the Trump campaign, and then you got the quote of a needed done that COVID was the best thing that happened to Joe Biden. They used coronavirus as an excuse to keep him in the basement. And it was smart and Biden was able to hide his biggest weakness, which is himself, and he did it with an excuse that sounded responsible. That a pretty harsh language not coming from the conservative media, right, and it's and it's I think I think you covered this where you've talked about how he's cognitively impaired. He wouldn't take a test for cognitive how you know how he's doing and everybody can see it. And now, man, you want a test for cocaine. You're a junkie. Man, Come on, man, right now, they're gloating over it, so they've got to be. So the media was the lamestream. Media was a willing accomplice in this. Big Tech was a willing accomplice in this. And all they wanted was Donald Trump out and Donald Trump. You know, except for forty four thousand votes out of one hundred and sixty million cast in three states, you know, we lost the closest electoral vote margin here in decades. It was closer than we won by last time. And when you look at eleven thousand votes in Arizona, twelve thousand in Georgia, and twenty thousand in Wisconsin. And now they're trying to cover it up with you know this HR one where they're going to try to change the election laws because they enabled they took that election by these mail in ballots and drop boxes that Zuckerberg paid a half a billion dollars for. And you know, the weekend voter idea, the weekend signature verification, and you had two thirds of the votes cast that way, and you know, they squeaked it through on that, and now they're gloating about it. Ensure. They're saying, you know, we had the guy in the basement, and yeah, it's all true. I had twenty five to the top of the hour, eight hundred and nine four one Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we can get to your calls here now Cuomo is he's just digging his heels. And if you missed this earlier in the program today, I never touched anyone inappropriate. I've never done anything wrong in my public career that I am ashamed job. I'm not gonna resign well as the voices of Democrats get louder, listen, I want New Yorkers to hear from me directly on this. First. I fully support a woman's right to come forward, and I think it should be encouraged in every way. I now understand that I acted in a way that made people feel uncomfortable. It was unintentional, and I truly and deeply apologize for it. I feel awful about it, and frankly, I am embarrassed by it. I'm not in this business to make people feel uncomfortable. I'm here to make them to help them. That's the essence of what I do. What I do. I do not believe I have ever done anything in my public career that I am ashamed of. I don't think today is a day for politics. I wasn't elected by politicians. I was elected by the people of the State of New York. I'm not going to resign. I work for the people of the state of New York. They elected me, and I'm going to serve the people of the state of New York. And by the way, we have a full plate. We have COVID, we have recovery, we have rebuilding, we have a teetering New York City, we have a terrible financial picture. We have to do vaccines. So no, I'm going to do the job the people of the state elected me to do well. It is New York. Who knows if he'll survivor or not. You know, it's just like Gavin Newsom out in California. He's at a restaurant and then again, this is his first time. Paul, I'm so sorry. I'll never do that again. The restaurant's not supposed to be open, but he's there and as an excuse, well, I didn't know. I wasn't eating in the restaurant. Okayish, really, what are all those empty plates at your table all about? Unbelievable? All right, to our busy phones as we say hi to bridget Is in the great state of Tennessee. Hi, thank you for taking my call. I wanted to talk to you about the Doctor SEUs thing, being that you know, yesterday was his birthday. This week is read across America, and my grandson this week is in the second grade, and each day they read a different book, you know, like the first month, Monday was cat and a hat and they wore crazy hats. Yesterday was fox and Socks and they wore crazy socks and they fixed their hair different. Today's wacky Wednesday, and he was wearing his clothes inside out, and tomorrow's green eggs and ham. So it really bothers me because that this is going on with the cancel culture, because it's so important for everyone to learn to read. And if Doctor Seuss encourages you know, children and even you know, adults to read, I don't see the harm in any of of what's going on. So and I don't understand why it's it's such a big deal, and why why do it? You know, I look I looked at for example, I've been asking and not getting answers to and my team has been researching because look, I gotta be honest, Bridget has been a while. You know, my kids are older now, they're not they're not in grammar school, they're not young, they're not in preschool. So green eggs and ham and hop on pop days and Goodnight Moon are done for me. But but as a grandparent, I can hear the pain in your voice. You know, if there is a thing or two that they want to edit out, filter out, you know, based on changing society at old norms and not offend people. I don't just edit it. It's you don't have to cancel it, because it's not even you're talking about my Nusha. Look, if it was that obvious, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden wouldn't have been out there recommending these books up until this week. But the fact is they all used it, and they all saw a benefit of it, and Obama himself went the furthest saying everything you need to know and learn about how to treat people you learn from doctor Seuss. So there's certainly a better way to handle these things. And when I saw that there was one picture of Michelle Obama, and good for her. You know, I think any any work people do with kids, and I consider kids, you know, in any school, even when they're in college, they're kids to me, anything you can do to make kids better people. She was spending time, she was reading the one of the books, I guess, hop On Pop, and all the kids had the hop on Pop character hat On and hop On Pop and a couple of doctors who's characters, you know, like they dress up at Disney with the air and it was it was cool for the kids. They had a great time. And I just think that's that's all a good thing. And you know, if it's ninety nine percent good, but you want to change one thing, all right, go ahead and change it. And I still to the second this day. I don't get the whole mister potato Head thing, and I still don't understand Hasbro's position on it, because they're still gonna call it mister potato head, even though they said they weren't gonna call it mister potato head. They're still gonna keep missus potato head. And then they're just gonna call it all potato head. I mean, okay, I can't keep up with all of this, and it's it's it's amazing how we're digging. People are digging their heels in here. And how about we just let the kids he teach the kids the basics. This is the fundamentals for me. Now, you can't mention God in your grandson's public school, right, but the golden rule is what love God with all your heart, mind, body, soul, and your neighbor as yourself. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Simple stuff. Um, you don't use bad names, you don't curse like Linda, things like that. Was waiting for a response, Ding, get one. I'm like, we're talking about doctor SEUs here. I do not curse. Does Liam like doctor SEUs books? I have every Doctor SEUs book ever written, Yeah, and I every single one, and he loves And I've been looking through you know what, people, they're not giving us enough information online, but to be honest, and I read the New York Post today and they had one I guess this is from which Which one was this from here? I'm trying to get um, I don't remember which one it is. Just from one of the books final chapters anyway it had it says it is as a picture of somebody who is Asian, a Chinese man who eats Swiss sticks. Now, I took that to mean and maybe you would want to say, and somebody who's Asian, Okay, you go to a Chinese restaurant, you get chop sticks, and it's different than how we eat with a knife and a fork. So a kid would learn, Oh, they they eat their dinner with these sticks. By the way, whoever can do a good job of that, God bless you, because I cannot figure it out for the life of me. Can I have a fork? Please? Thank you. I've actually sat there and been with you during those moments. They're not moments I think you actually one time tried to teach you. I just don't have the patience to I don't know why I like my fork. I like a spoon, um, but I do. I. As I looked at that, I looked, okay, let me look at this from stand back and from every perspective. Do I think that this was in any way intended to be offensive to anybody? Got the biggest smile on the face of the character having fun and and kids are learning that other people in other parts of the world eat food differently. They're the way we eat food. Did you Here's the point, right, So when my son reads I heard it down on Mulberry Street or hop on Pop or last night we read Cat in the Hat, you know, and they're celebrating, you know, learning to read at school. And these are the words and the rhymes. You know, we right now they're learning the days of the week, singing it to the theme and the melody of the Adams Family song. And you know, all of these things are just various nemonics, the rhyming and so on and so forth to help a kid learn. My son in no way, shape or form, and I assume many of these other children. You know, kids are not born with hate in their heart. That's not how they're made. They just come into this world. They like each other then want to play games with each other. You know, some kids get along, some kids don't. But it's not the same way that adults do it. It's not based on race and gender. And you have this and I don't. It's it's just not about that we are placing those sorts of ideas on our kids and our kids have no idea. They're not doing that. Remember, I think it was from the Bulberry Street one where I took it to mean that they were talking about people that ride on camels. Now, if you grow up in America, guess what you drive in a car or a bicycle or whatever. You don't have you read that whole book. I have read the High I have not a thousand times. Not. What do you think I have time to read the serious bomb? Pop four? Let me tell you what my son remembers from that book. Okay, we talk about all the different things he sees on Mulberry Street, and then he goes, look at that, Mommy, He didn't tell his daddy about any of that stuff because it didn't happen. He's not like, look at the cultural appropriation on page twelve, mom, did you see that? But but but think about it. I looked at it a different way, and I guess everything's open to interpretation. Is that whether or not a Chinese man who eats with sticks a big magician doing tricks. Okay, I'm pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Okay, Then you got in this particular case, you know it talks about I'll capture them fat, I'll capture them scrawn. You'll capture a scraggle foot uh maliga, tawny, high stepping animal, fast as the wind from the blistering sands of the desert of zinn Okay. So you read that, and then it's a picture of a camel and somebody riding on a camel. Was Was that designed to be educational? I took it. Oh, maybe you're teaching the kid there are other modes of transportation than Mom's Mercedes or suv or you know, whatever the heck anybody's driving these days, right, exactly right. You know what you drive in, what you eat for dinner, the music you listen to, the closure where the religion you practice. It's not the way it's done all around the world. And this is how we expose our children to it. This is how we teach our kids. We teach them in ways that they can consume things. Change it. Right. If there were things that were written in nineteen twenty eight, nineteen thirty five, nineteen forty five, nineteen fifty five that are not appropriate in twenty twenty one, no problem. Okay, you're credited, edit it, take it out, or don't cancel a whole person. Just take out the books that are not appropriate. You want to cancel six books, fine, But they want to say that this guy is some evil monster. No, he's not an evil monster. He wanted to get kids to learn and read, and he did it the best way he knew how in the time that he did it. All right, thank you for a good call. We appreciate your call. Uh oh, you're welcome, not your Stop talking about bridget Let's say hi to who's next here? Lenna is in North Carolina, hayned Lynn. How are you glad you called? Hi? Sun? I have a statement and a question. Well, first to say, doctor Seuss, it's a little hard to a cancel doctor SEUs. He's in everyone's memory all over the world. But cancel culture is anti to me, anti freedom of speech, anti freedom of thought, anti freedom of belief. So ultimately those who promote cancel culture will be canceled because the only place for this to all end up is a society that's anti individual and dependent on a system to tell them what to say, what to think, what to believe. And as far as I know, that's communism. And my question is, do you think that's what cancel culture wants. Do they know better? I think that there is. There's a lot of motives of a lot of people here, and the level of inconsistency is breathtaking hypocrisy and selective moral outrage. I don't believe for a minute. And this is a great question that everybody is as outraged as they act. You know, Oh, I can't believe. I'm shocked, I'm shot, Donald Trump tweeted. I just I don't believe it. The greatest example of what I mean. Look at this whole issue of sexual harassment allegations against Andrew Cuomo. Compare the reaction of Democrats. I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe. Where are the where's the I believer caucus? Now, many of them are silent, they're certainly not as passionate if they get sha aimed into finally saying something, and I think what you have you call it a culture war, culture battle, culture struggle, etc. Etc. But it in the end, it's about liberty, and it's about freedom. And I don't want to live in a society where everybody's so offended at things that aren't really that offensive to them, but they act offended, and they then they lack more offended if it's somebody in the opposition party than somebody in their own party. So I'm not buying all of this, this feigned outrage of people over these things. And this could be very easily resolved if they wanted to in a sensible way and in a common sensical way, which is all too uncommon, and they just don't want to now. As far as control, yeah, I think I think we people want us to think a certain way, to act, their way, to conform to their ever changing radical standards. And there's there's a lot of things. There's a lot of truth in what you're saying here, and that is that, oh, you're ostracized. All right.
