Let not your heart be troubled. You are listening to the Sean Hannity Radio Show podcast. All right, glad you with us right down our toll free telephone number. We got a great show for you today, eight hundred nine for one Shawn, if you want to be a part of the program. Didny did you see Alan Dershowitz and Joe de Geneva last night on TV? They were both amazing. We have Joe de Jenneva and Sarah Carter on today. Where New Kingridge is back? Where is New Gingridge? Ben? I know his wife is now the the ambassador to the Holy See too, to Rome and to the Church, and I guess in the Vatican. I guess he's spending a lot of time in Italy, having the time of his life. Seems to have just what would you do if you were in Italy? I think I wouldn't have me not asking that question. You're not any fun? Let me tell you what he's doing in Italy. Well, I'm not any fun. I'm not any fun at all. Say yourself, you're not fun. Well, I mean, I'm a happy person. I love doing what I'm doing every day. But the I I don't need to go to Italy and you're even happier because the grapes are sweeter, the wine is stronger, the air is wire. She's walking through Italy and she's saying, the grapes are stronger here. There's so much stronger. I can't believe it. I said the grapes were sweeter of the wine. The wine is stronger, and you get drunk of fast. I have a feeling i'd be very popular in Italy. Oh yeah, who's the crazy girl from New York. Who's that crazy woman from the United States of America. That's the first thing that they'd be saying. I wish we could do a reality show were you and when to travel to all different countries. That's all different cultures. Okay, And I guarantee you if we took a vote based upon the people that met us and we said they would like, they would like obviously. Obviously, I'd be there on my iPhone looking up the latest news, walking down watching the Drudge Report, my head down, my glasses, and he's like, hold on, I just gotta send this tweet out one second. Well, no, I don't tweet as much as I used to. All right, and we have to Jennifer, we have Sarah carter Um. It's getting really scary with all of these social media sites censoring. They're doing data mining on you, they're spying on you, and we've got all the evidence. I mean, look at these examples. Facebook admitted they routinely suppressed conservative news stories from their trending news section in now just recently Facebook. And I meant, I told us to Lauren the other day, I gave you that newspiece rejected an ad because it had a crucifix with Jesus Christ on it, on the cross, and they said it was too violent. That is so offensive, you know, But why because it's unbelievable. In the past, face book as approved Christian hate groups, and they've shut down Christian groups. I mean, they're run by a bunch of left wing radicals. On top of that, then you've got Facebook removed to patriotic picture honoring fallen Marines. Have an instance where Facebook removed photoshop picture of Obama wearing a che Guvera shirt. And I mean, I'm pretty much all free speech except if you start making threats of violence or some type of terroristic threat. I mean, we've got to monitor social media sites because almost all of these school shooters and church shooters and all of these people that are involved in terrorism, they're all telegraphing what they're planning and what they want to do. So we've got to do something on on that front. Uh, Now, Dan Bongino, Jonathan Gillum and Diamond of Diamond and Silk Fame, they've all been through this, and we've been through it. You know, Twitter is now how many times told us officially, well you guys have been compromised, Like okay, So they're like, well, don't use this site, this part of the site. Am I Why do I even go on your stupid site? If you can't protect a stupid site? And nothing is nothing, by the way, is private anymore? Nothing. It's unbelievable governments buying on you. You got these companies buying on you, like leave us alone. So i'mbelieving Linda will be interested by on her. Now think about this though, because then it becomes us, sorry, are you inviting people to spy on me? Absolutely? Uh? And you'll they'll find that you're you're pretty boring to um. Just say, all right, what do you do every weekend? Now? Okay, what do you do every weekend, you go home to your two year old and you go to two year old extravaganzas, which is like, that's the operative word extravagance. Okay, So you go to a pond, you go to I think recently you went to aquarium. Uh, you go to museums. By the way, taking your kid to a museum. What that is the worst thing you could ever do to a kid is take him to a museum. About what I do when my son's awake, About what I do when he's during his naptime. That's when you're cleaning, and that's when you're cooking that night's dinner. Just just a guess, because I know what she does. She tells us what she does. Did I say anything that's not true? No, I do. I clean, I cook, and while I do it, I dance around. And I know, all right, we don't need the details. Now you don't want to, now I don't. I have absolutely noticed here this would be interesting. You can't embarrassment. Thank you nice? Try though? All right, So you know, and here's all of this is going on. And I went through this in great detail last night about the president because you know, something happened in the last week, and I can't really explain there's been a huge momentum shift because we've spent like thirty thirty five forty days or so, and it has been a NonStop assault on Donald Trump. And you know what, the media has to look at his approval rating holding now at today, and they've got to be saying to themselves, Wow, this isn't working. And you look at the president. Okay, he's keeping another campaign promise. Fine, Congress is slow. They only appropriated X number of dollars. I'm sending the National Guard to the southern border and will protect the border that way until we can build the wall. He deserves credit, you know, or this guy wants to keep his promises. People say, oh, he didn't really mean it when he said build the wall. He did, and the wall is gonna get built, I bet any amount of money. And you know, for everyone, all the liberals and wetting their pants over this and having a heart attack and getting hysterical, the problem they have is that that precedent for doing that was already done by George W. Bush and Barack Obama and the president's tough rhetoric. He's now demanding Mexico to spand the caravan of asylum seekers. You've got the Prime Minister of Canada now saying, yeah, it looks like we're gonna probably get a deal, a NAFTA deal, and it's gonna be more favorable than the one we already have. Oh, I guess Mexico is gonna make less money and that means they'll pay for the wall. But remember, and for anyone said when I said to him during the campaign, you don't expect Mexico is gonna write you a check and build the wall, because no, not at all. Well I said, well, how are they gonna pay for the wall? He goes, because I'm gonna renegotiate trade deals more in our favor and we'll get more money and we'll apply that money to the wall. So the headline on Drudge right now is a new NAFTA deal is near. So all of which tells me that this president series about keeping you know, his word and that and it's showing up in the polls, and it ought to be something that the rest of the Republican Party follows, because if you keep your word, you fight for the things you believe in, well, then people are gonna reward you with with higher approval ratings and with reelection. You know, if didn't even have the fake new CNN poll, the president making major gains uh in key voting groups. He went up eight points with men since February, went up five points with young voters since February, nine points with middle age dson's February, and he's up by ten points with college graduates. Now, what's so interesting about these polls. Imagine if he didn't have Robert Muller hanging all over his head and a corrupt media, you know, talking Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia NonStop, and the media having an apoplectic meltdown over the fact that he's not a target. Oh, he's gonna be a target. It's a year and a half later, but he's gonna be a target. I Meanwhile, they missed the biggest abuse of power scandal in their history. Has become nothing but a witch hunt. Now the president's got to decide if he's gonna sit down with Robert Muller, and Robert Mueller's now big threat. It's even the Washington Post as a report out today, Muller unlikely to indict Trump. You're not gonna indict a sitting president. It's just like everyone thinks that collusion is a crime. Collusion is not a crime, all these things that they've been throwing out. That the president has an absolute right to fire anybody he wants in the government, and the first witness in the firing of Comie would be Rod Rosenstein, who's conflicted five hundred thousand ways and sideways. You know, now we got Mueller's chasing down Russian oligarchs seeing if they donated to Trump. This is how far off phase this has gotten. You got fic By, Why do these FBI love birds still have a national security clearance? You know what I'm beginning to suspect. I'm thinking they flipped. I'm thinking Strucking Page are now cooperating witnesses because they know we've only seen about a thousand of the fifty thousand emails that are out there, and their insurance policy I'm sure was discussed in a lot more detail, That's my guess. Anyway, So you got the president, he's doing his jobs, and you know, we've got a million We've got three million jobs created since he's become president. You've got two million fewer people on food stamps since he's become president. Manufacturing now at the strongest in three years. The American people are getting results. On top of the three million jobs created a DP and Moody's analyt they're now saying two extra jobs were created in March. That's on top of record low unemployment levels in the country, uh, the lowest unemployment level for Hispanic Americans and Black Americans. Whole equity is now at a record level five point four trillion dollars. And the President's making a big step. I think what he did on healthcare. I was trying to explain this a little bit yesterday. You know, finally they're implementing what the President signed as an executive order. And what this does. It allows trade associations and groups of people to join together and buy embulk, even across state lines, their healthcare plans. So that increases people's choices, it lowers their costs. It expanded by just expanding the association of health plans. You know, I could organize everybody that works on the Sean Hannity Show. Now we can come up with our own healthcare plan where let's say, otherwise we actually all have to most of us have to be union here. But it's a long story work in New York radio. You have to. But you know, these plans now allow any business to come together. Let's say you're in the my pillow business and you're you want to work with Mike Lindell. He's in the pillow business. While you can bring all the pillow people together and join as one and buy a healthcare plan that in bulk at a lower price, with with better services. You know, then the President I thought one of the most amazing thing he did was he he was piste off signing that one point three trillion dollar omnibus bill. Well, now he's gonna use the Empowerment Control Act of nineteen seventy four that allows the President gives him the authority. You just need a simple vote up or down in the Senate to cancel spending already approved by Congress. He has forty five days to get that done. That would be good for the Republicans if they can get it done. You know, I've listed way too many times the list of accomplishments that the Republicans have. You got Nancy Pelosi's already saying that she's gonna try and repeal the tax cuts, and we know that you know, we got a whole chorus of pill led by Maxim Waters and Peach forty five and Peach forty five if Nancy Pelosi ever become speaker. So you know, the Republicans have an opportunity. Now, how about reallocating that money to build the wall. Put it in escrow so the wall will be both built in full. On top of that, we got the National Guard down to the border. On top of that, you've got jobs being created, you got the tax cut plan. America now has opened up an war. We have the pipelines that are being built. We saved the coal industry, and we're gonna drill in the forty eight states and off the coast of the East coast, West coast, and in the Gulf. I mean, everything is now beginning to work the way it should work. And that means now people that have been left behind are now in a better position than they were. And all the media has been talking about a stormy, stormy, stormy and that creep that creepy Anderson Cooper interview is so bizarre, very weird. You know, it's nice when you can say, hey, guess what, three million more Americans have jobs. Uh. Yeah, the corporations now have tax. Manufacturing is up the highest level we've had in three years. You see corporation after corporation committing millions and billions of dollars to the American economy and too and to building in UH factories and manufacturing centers. And that's all great news. And you never hear about any good news from any of these idiots that call themselves journalists. There they'll think through this, their only hope is is that they yet Trump, They stop Trump after eight years of Obama. You know, you would say, who are they cheering for here? What? What is it they actually want? What is it? Collusion is not a crime. Alan Dershowitz, Joe de Jenneva, Uh, everything, Greg Jare, every lawyer, Mark Levin, I've talked collusion not a crime. Today we see that Mueller announces that one of the things that he's going to go after Trump for, and Rosenstein says he can do it is collusion. Now he's inventing a crime. There's no such crime as collusion in the federal statute. You can't just make up crimes. Nobody likes collusion. If collusion had occurred, and there's no evidence it did, if collusion had occurred, it would be a political sin. But neither Rosenstein nor Muller can simply magically make up a crime and say, now collusion is a crime. You want to make collusion a crime in the future, pass the statute. It's not on the books. What is the media in this country looking for? Why can't they ever report anything good about Donald Trump? Especially because there's so much good that you can discuss. I've gone through the list, I put it up on the screen even last night eight And what what? What is their goal? It's obviously not about the American people, it's not They don't They don't advocate for the working men and women that are in poverty, out of work and on food stamps. They're not out there celebrating that companies are gonna spend billions and not celebrating the tax cuts. They're just trying to take the president down any way they can. I don't even think they realize how sick they are. They This is an illness on their part. It's bordering now on psychosis, and it's just hate Trump, hate Trump. If Trump is quiet and doesn't tweet, they're like opioid addicts that are going through withdrawal, and their body is contorting and twisting and purging, and they don't like a spiritual warfare taking place, and they need the next fix. Are they hoping that the president fails? What does that say about their lack of caring for the American people? Alright, twenty five till the top of the hour. We'll get to some calls here in a minute, you know. Um, So we're getting to a tipping point as it relates to Robert Mueller. There's really nobody left to interview that I know of. We should bring me in for an interview. I'd start interviewing them about their background, about their credentials, about exculpatory evidence that some of the people he hired had had withheld in high profile cases, about innocent people going to jail, about anthrax, about a hundred million plus dollars UH paid to four individuals to who died in jail turned out to be innocent. That's in the Whitey Boulder case. Then we'll get to Andrew Weisman. Exculpatory evidence withheld UH, tens of thousands of people losing their jobs, and of course a nine old decision in the Supreme Court. Why would you hire that guy puts four Meryal executives in jail, and why why? And then then they were found innocent? Fifth circuit overturn that why did you hire these people? I'd answer every question with a question, why did you hire these people? Let me ask you, are you the guy that withheld the exculpratory every Why would you withhold exculpatory evidence? And people say to me, Hannity, you're living in your mind in a fantasy world. You would never act that way. Yeah, I probably would. Yeah, I think I probably would. You know what, because it's wrong. You know, all of this good news that I'm throwing out here, nobody in the media covers. Here's another thought. Now, I was just talking about the President keeping his promises, talking about millions of jobs created, a fewer you know, two million, fewer people on food stamps, and and how the economy is roaring back, and the commitments by all these companies now to spend billions in on factories and manufacturing centers. That's going to create jobs for Americans. That's all I care about. I want to make sure that they can feed their families, they can get a nice house, they can live in a nice, safe neighborhood and got a decent car, and send their kids to a decent school, and take a yearly vacation and go out to eat once a week or whatever whatever they like to do, you know, go to a movie or something, bowling, I don't know, whatever people like to do, go to a baseball game, football game, not bankrupt you. A lot of people that can't do all this stuff. Sad, especially after the eight years of Obama. You know how ironic would it be though, if the president meets with Little rocket Man. Can you imagine we're now discussing and this is the president that didn't decide to bring in cargo planes full of cash and other currencies adding up to a hundred and fifty billion like Obama did with a rant or or billions that were handed over by Bill Clinton to Kim Jong Ill, Kim Jong UN's father. You know. So he just says, little rocket Man, we've got a bigger we got bigger weapons, will annihilate you now all of a sudden, The next thing that we know is Kim Jong Un he wants to go to the Olympics and he wants to meet with Trump to talk about d nuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. Well, that's good news anyway you slice it. Maybe it doesn't work out, but at least we got a shot. You know, people said to me or some one of these political fact checkers wrote, all Hannity said that Obama shouldn't talk to the MLAs and arranging because Obama is weak. There's a reason, you know, you got a different president here. Obama wants to give these people a hundred and fifty billion dollars and they still continue to spend their centerfuges. I mean, I never trusted Obama because Obama is clueless about negotiating. And more importantly, you know, he's too willing to to bow down and kiss the ring of of dictators and mulas, and I was not. I he wasn't the guy to do it. I'll think about this if we ever de nuclearized Korean peninsula, and look at where we are, Look at the new crown Princess Saudi Arabia. Look do I believe everything he's saying in terms of liberalizing policies and pulling back on Sharia and modification on basically everything, and and human rights and more tolerance. We'll see. Time is gonna tell how they treat women, whether or not they still kill gays and lesbians, and whether they persecute Christian as a Jews. But he did say that Israel has a right to exist, and Israel has a right to their own property because it is historically their land. That's that's progress. But what's happened is because the Iranians are so nuts and they have the money because of Barack Obama, it has created an unprecedented moment in Middle Eastern history. We're literally now the Israelis, the Saudias, the Egyptians, the Jordanians, and the Emirates. They're now working together sharing intelligence to prevent Iranian hegemony in the region. Now, can you imagine if everybody would just literally surround Iran and prevent them from getting nuclear weapons or just take them out, and that all these countries once and for all, they finally could make peace and get on with their lives and and start making a better Middle East. I don't know, beginning to sound like John Lennon give piece a chance, but I mean that could happen. But the media doesn't even talk about that. They don't talk about economic success, They don't give the president credit on anything in foreign policy. You know, we have a new NAFTA deal is near. You know, let me interpret that for you. Mexico is gonna pay for the wall. That's what the new NAFTA deal is going to be. I know everybody's worried about China, and China holds a lot of our debt. China is not gonna pull out from our debt from this country, because then they're gonna be the ones we don't have to pay them back. They're last on the list to pay back. They're not gonna take that chance. What's gonna happen is is they're gonna negotiate a better trade deal. I'm all for open free trade. I'm a free trader, but I'm also for free and fair trade. And there has been we have been abused by some of these countries. Now here's the biggest obstacle for the president to keep going forward. His name is Robert Mueller, and as Mary banned a Democratic corrupt donors that he appointed. So we're at the point in the investigation where, by the way, this is bad news for the destroy Trump media. The Washington Post is even reporting listen from the Washington Post that it is unlikely Robert Mueller will indict President Trump, but will instead is your a report summing up his investigation to the Justice Department. And it turns out the Republican Congress or even President Trump may have the power to decide whether Mueller's report ever sees the light today. By the way, somebody better get some xan X for you know, Maxie Waters and some of these other people that have been screaming about impeachment. Now, Robert Mueller will have a lot of discretion here, And Robert Muller could do as much damage in a report as he could do with you know, anything legal that he might put together. Again, you're not gonna indict a sitting president. And anyway, for the Washington Post to go on and say it has always seemed unlikely that Trump would be indicted, that's not what they've been That's not how they've been presenting it, or the New York Times or fake news CNN or conspiracy TV, MSNBC, you know, particularly obstruction of justice. They've been treating it like this is gonna be a crime that the president is going to be proven to have committed crimes. Rather, the question has been now serious as misconduct was They act as though he's guilty. And if you asked them to say it any information, well is they always say the same thing. A lot of smoke, but there's no fire anyway. Mahler's investigators have vindicated to the president's legal team that they're now considering writing reports on the findings in stages. Now, what's the purpose of that, because if the Democrats ever got control of Congress in the midterms, all of that would mean that they're going to use that as the basis of making a case for high crimes and misdemeanors. In other words, that Pelosi could use it in in the instance of trying to impeach the president. But when the first report is posted to focus on obstruction of justice, under the regulations that governed the appointment of a special Council, baller's supposed to provide a confidential report explaining his conclusions to the Attorney general. In this case, I guess it would be Rod Rosenstein, the man that shouldn't be there, the man that's conflicted, the man that would be witnessed. Number one as it relates to anything involving obstruction of justice. For example, in the firing of James Comey, because he recommended it, and every single legal exper it I talked to said, the president has an absolute right to fire anybody he wants, like he has an absolute right to the power of the party. Well, did he ever discuss pardoning any of these people? Huh, not with me, But he does have an absolute right to do it anyway Mueller is so. Rosenstein is then supposed to provide the chairman and ranking members of the House and Senate Judiciary committees with an explanation for any decision to conclude the investigation. The explanation can be released if he decides it would be in the public interest. The real question maybe whether Rosenstein's support is ever gonna come out and what it might look like. According to many legal experts, the regulations appear to give Rosenstein room to decide what is explanation to the judiciary committees would entail in terms of detail and scope. Now, this is the same Rod Rosenstein doesn't doesn't want anything out there that's negative against the d o J or his buddies that have been in the upper echelons of the INTEL, or the f I communities that have been doing the farious things. Interesting interesting sounds just like Alec Baldwin, he could write a two sentence explanation. According to Andrew Kent, the professor at Fordham Law School, that point, Rosenstein could release it himself, or if not, the report could leak or portions could be described to reporters. But however, congressional Republicans could block a vote on whether to release Rosenstein's report or vote against it, or President Trump could respond to a congressional vote to release the report with a veto, or Trump might try some kind of executive action. You know, it's just this is what they're doing to the country. That's interesting. Interesting, Just talk show host Alec Baldwin. I think it was the best five minutes of radio that I've ever heard of my entire life. Um, when we come back, Uh, we got some time, we're gonna h When can we take some calls whenever we want? Do we we have calls that are on there now? No calls yet? What number do people call to get on the air of mean, do we have that number? It's right there? You know? Do I have the call number in front of me? Oh, I'm so sorry. Uh, that's interesting. Interesting at twelve ten at PhD. Of course, any other questions you have any other comments you have, call us um to the what else? Call us please at now um. If you don't call, we're gonna keep reading from the Scientology Manual. You might not feel it. You might not feel the energy right now. You might not feel the swell of what's happening hereybody calls yet? There? Ivan, no calls? Let's spead some more about scientology. Is Sean Hannity a scientologist Alec Baldwin posing the big questions tonight? Here? Do we have any calls here yet? Ivan? None? Boy, it's just incredible, unbelievable. Well, you leave us no choice listeners. And then he called his mother because he had nothing left to say. Here's the funny apartment. Now. Rush used to do this bit about the Tom Dashel Show, and it was a bit. It was, you know what a boring liberal like Tom Dasher would sounded like, this is real, that really happened. He was auditioning for a job. Oh man, so funny. All right. One other point, and I mentioned this yesterday that Devin Noonness House Intel Committee Chairman, he sent a letter to the Deputy Attorney General, the ever so corrupt Rod Rosenstein, and the FBI Director Christopher Raynness blasting the repeated stonewalling by the department. This goes back to augusteen. They've been asking for documents now. Rosenstein is the guy that didn't want to release what eventually became the new Nest memo that talked about and exposed all the FISA abuse issues that we have discussed, also part of the Graham Grassley Memo or the Grassly grand Memo. Without these documents, and Rosenstein successfully been able to plead his case to Paul Ryan, and Ryan capitulated, we wouldn't have learned any of this. We wouldn't know about any of the massive scandals that we've been following, like the FIS abuse scandal, lying to the judge to get a warrant to spy in a Trump campaign associate. Rod Rosenstein, for whatever reason, doesn't want us to know anything. And Newness has been looking for these documents since August the last year. It's ridiculous how the entire process now is. You know, they don't want to give us any information. Why not? Why don't you turn over any of these FBI memos related to the bureau's opening of the Russia investigation. Why and why are Peter Struck and Lisa Paid. Why are they still on the pay roll anyway? Well, now Newness has given them on April eleven deadline, and given you know, of course, what we see from Rosenstein, it's gonna be a long time before the House Intel Committee gets to see it. Listen, I'll be honest. I think they just ought to go straight to court, or they ought to bring these people in and hold them in contempt to Congress. And it's time for people like Rosenstein to top stop hiding the truth from the American people and Jeff Sessions he needs to get involved here. He might be refused, but he's not refused from being the boss of Rod Rosenstein. And if Rosenstein doesn't want to do it, then he needs to go. He's already conflicted as he has signed off on one of the Hives extensions and he appointed Robert Mueller. Can you not say that's a conflict of interest? Because it is right as we roll along Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred nine for one Shawn. By the way, the number of the illegal immigrants who have been stopped while trying to enter the US has now doubled since Donald Trump became president, So he's getting the job done that way. California issues, you know, key voter registration document to a million illegal immigrants. They're just breaking the lay out there left and right. And that caravan, by the way, canceled their plans to storm the US border. Thank you Donald Trump again. An hour two Sean Hannity Show, Gladial with us right down our toll free telephone numbers eight hundred nine for one. Shawn, you want to be a part of the program. I think he must be mad at me because he is usually used to be, once upon a time a regular on the program, but we never hear from anymore. And uh, we do miss him. I guess he's spending a lot of time now that his wife, Calista is the ambassador to the Vatican, the Holy See. And how are you, Mr Speaker? And I'm doing great and I mus being on the show, and so Linda, we're gonna do it a lot more often. I love having a chance to chat with you about all the different things we're doing and how you know, how countries evolving. Well, the first thing that I wanted to point out is you look at the president. He's got the highest approval rting now he's had in some time. And this is after you know, he's been through NonStop abuse about Russia, Russia, Russia. You know, the creepy interviews of Anderson Cooper with women that may or may not have been with twelve, fifteen years ago, whatever it is. But then you got the president. You know what a day he had. Yesterday he signed a proclamation He's sending the National Guard to the border. The President has now opened up the people can create their own healthcare cooperatives and buy in bulk and buy across state lines, a way of circumventing Obamacare. The President now has moved towards energy independence. We have now three million jobs that have been created in the country. Uh. Then you look at you know, even in the CNN poll, the president gained eight points with men since February, five points with young voters, nine points with middle age voters, and ten points with college graduates. Then you have the lowest unemployment rate in the African American and Hispanic communities. And I'm looking at you know what, things are really changing for the better and people are beginning to feel it. And I think the media is just lost in these narratives that they can't get out of Well, you know, I did my newsletter a Genuis Productions, and I think I love it. Basically was Trump up, elite media down, and I think they lost. I think they threw in the kitchen sink for thirty days. I think they thought, boy, this will really getting and the country, first of all, as Rasmussen has reported, by something like fifty two to five, the country now believes that the elite media lives, I mean five is relia. It's even of Americans now believe that news media is absolutely involved in fake news. They they try to beat up Trump, and people just shrug it off. I don't think anybody, you know, at these various networks and newspapers realized what they've actually done is they haven't heard Trump. They've destroyed themselves because people have to be One of the things Trump understood beginning in two thousand and fifteen that in retrospect was amazing, was if you're seeing him on television on scripture, sometimes he's clumsy, sometimes he's brilliant, but she gets the sense he's always authentic because he's never scripted, he's never in some kind of set up deal. And after a while, people began to go, you know, that's that's the real guy. You know what a look at what else he did when the President signed the one point three trillion dollar omnibus bill. And I was pretty disgusted by that omnibus bill. You know, I go, I'm never doing this again. But Congress had pretty much left town, so he really didn't have a choice, and he wanted the authorization for the defense funds. Uh. Now, the president, as he has done many times, he goes back into the law, and he's been able to find a way that There is a nineteen seventy four act called the Impoundment Control Act, which gives him the authority to cancel spending that was already proved approved by Congress. You only need a fifty one majority in the Senate, and Congress has forty five days to approve of the request of the President to cut it. Now, I would think that's an opportunity for Republicans to stand for small government and fiscally responsible budgets. Oh, I think it is. I think frankly that and I wrote about this at the time, having lived through the Reagan years as a member of Congress supporting Reagan. He always had three goals. National security first, economic goes second, balanced the budget third, And I thought candidly that Reagan would have signed this bill because I think Reagan was said with with with Secretary Matters, retired four star Marine general, saying to him, Obama has so radically weakened our military that we're putting our young men and women to risk every single day, so we don't fix it. And I think as a commander in chief, Trump felt that that was his number one prior. Didn't I get it. With deregulation and with tax cuts, He's begun to work on economic growth, which was Reagan's second goal. And you saw the numbers this week of continued application for more and more jobs. Last year, I believe over two million people left food stamps and went to work. Correct By the way, it's worth almost five billion dollars five a year every single year in the savings um and so you know things are moving in the right direction. But I do this thing to watch if it's a design it correctly. The Recision Bill, which is what it's called, the Recision Bill, could put people in Congress and some very difficult challenges because some of the stuff is so stupid, because it's really hard to go home and defended. What do you make Now, it's been a long time since I've interviewed you, and you're gonna join me on TV tonight. We'll get into more details, uh what now that we've discovered so much about Robert Muller and Mueller's team, and it's been you know, fourteen months, and here we are. We have two committees, three committees looking into Trump Russia collusion and there's no evidence. And you know, then everything that we see in terms of the overreach by Mueller and the fact that he put a very biased team UH together to do all of this with I think some of the greatest corruption issues and problems and ethical problems that I've ever seen of any special counsel. What does your take on it at this point and what should happen? Well, first of all, I'm glad that we do have a new UH attorney who was brought in by Attorney General Sessions to look into the corruption in the way in which the Clinton scandals and the Clinton illegality was handled. I think that's an important step in the right direction. Second, I think it's very telling, if you put it correctly, with all of these UH, very high powered Democratic lawyers with all of this effort, uh Moll of this week said, you know, the president is really not the target of the investigation. Now, if in fact this continues into the summer, when we discover, oh say, around August, that there's nothing there at all, that even Moller can't find anything, the left is going to have a really big problem because they have banked so much of their energy, so much of their enthusiasm around the notion that come died something wrong, that if even Moreer ends up saying, you know, in the end there ain't nothing there. Um, I think you can see an enormous collapse of energy and the lust. What do you think of the argument that has now going on because we appear to be at the end of the investigation, and you know by that, what do we mean? We mean that now they're having discussions and some negotiations of some kind about questions a special counsel wants to ask the president. Now, collusion is not a crime. There is no underlining crime. You know, the idea that they want to know why the president fired James Comey. Well, Rod Rosenstein would be witness number one. He's got more conflicts of interest in this than anybody you know, and and how do we get to you know, the real investigations? It is? It is, the evidence is overwhelming. Hillary obstructed justice, violated eighteen US Code seven, mishandled and destroyed classified information. Then she deleted subpoena emails, acid washed her hard drive, and then beat up her devices with a hammer. And then people like come and Stroke and Page and McCabe and Loretta Lynch, they were all involved in an exoneration before they ever investigated or even interviewed her. And then of course it was Hillary that paid for Russian propaganda to manipulate the general election uh in her favor, And that then becomes the basis, even though it's unverified and they never tell afis the court that she paid for it as a FISA warrant, as buying a Trump campaign associate and the lead up to the campaign. What do we do with that? Well, that's why I think that the Attorney General, having appointed this prosecutor to look into it, so a step in the right direction. I think they are reopening all of that. I think they thought they had to reopen it because there are so many different crimes that are associated now with the Clinton campaign. The Clinton staff, the Clinton Foundation. That's almost impossible, uh, to to avoid having to look into it, and they get into it. I think that will become as we get into the fall, as all of the attacks on the president disappear, I think that will reappear as something that is just astonishing, and you know, it really is. Every time I try to understand them myself, and then, like you, I've sarent a lot of time on this. It is so complicated. There are so many different things that were illegal and wrong and unexplainable that we almost need an encyclopedia of corruption. Do you know how hard it is to explain this every day? I mean, we have new developments every single day. And the difference between what we have a report and Mr. Speaker and what the rest of the media has reported on Trump Russia collusion is we actually have the evidence, We actually have the text messages. We actually found out Hillary did pay for the phony dossier, she did fire a foreign agent, she did erase, uh, subpoenat emails, she did acid wash the hard drive. You know, struck page or struck in Comey in particular, did write an exoneration before an investigation. You know, I'm not making any of this up. We have evidence they don't. Well. One one one of the most amazing things about all this, I guess the reason I remade an optimists is that facts do matter, and in a free society, over time, facts duout away propaganda and the facts of their corruption. This is the perfect example of Teach State taking the people here descriving he's having very very senior people in the Justice Department, very very senior people in uh, the FBI, very very senior people in the State Department, and I think you know, it may well reach all the way up to the to President Obama. Clearly, Uh, there's a level of corruption here unprecedented in American history. And I believe it's all going to keep coming out. As I've said to you before, these things have a tendency to start unraveling, and as they unravel, more and more pieces fall apart, and it just becomes kind of mildly amazing. Well, I hope we do get to the truth. How do you think all of this impacts the mid terms? And if you could give advice to Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan and the president. And here we are in April, these elections coming fast in November. What would your advice be so this, you know, media predicted blue wave doesn't materialize. Well, my first advice would be to too, uh, have the Senate adopt a series of reforms they could actually approve all the people the presidents sent up there. I mean it is it really weekends America. Forget whether you're a Democrat or Republican, a weekends America. To have Chuck Schumer blocking so many different appointments all around the world in a way which is really unconsiderable and no patriotic. So that'd be my first piece of advice, and you see the Senate send to become a lot more effective. Second, I think they have to keep hammering away at the tax cuts. Every single Democrat voted against the tax cuts. The tax cuts are clearly working, uh. And I think going to the country this fall saying if you want your taxes to go up, vote Democrat, you want to create more jobs Republican is a pretty good dividing line. And then third, I think they've got to bring up issues that matter. I think people want to see a work requirement for welfare. I think people want to see uh drug testing for people are going to get a government aid. I think there are a number of steps you could take. They would clearly distinguish the two parties, uh, and would remind people that there's a huge difference in terms of who wins. All right, we gotta take a rake. Former Speaker of the House, Fox News contributor actually joined us on Hannity. For some reason, he has abandoned us now for a while. He's been spending I guess, a lot of time at the Holy See and the Vatican One, Shawn is our number. You want to be a part of the program, We'll take a quick break, we'll come back, we'll continue, and also the great one Mark Levin will join us tonight and we'll continue right as we continue with former Speaker of the House, Fox News contributor new King Ridge. Here's the most compelling argument I think that you can make foren and that is Nancy Pelosi a is going to rescind the tax cuts that the Republicans passed. More importantly, I don't have any doubt in my mind that if Nancy Pelosi is Speaker that they will find something to try and impeach this president with Do you agree with that? Well? I agree. In fact, you have a number of Democrats now running for Congress who have signed pledges if they get a lecture, they will automatically for impeachment no matter what, whether there's any reason too or not. But in addition, I just want to say I've watched with real surprise as the Democrats have turned into an anti submitic socialist party. When you look at the people who are running in these partmaries, you look at the attitude of a large number of Democrats, as people like Farrakan, who's clearly an overt anti submitted person, and you realize that this is a party which is going to a radical view in a way which would be pretty scary of it if they were to get power in the House as radicals are becoming. I think it would really be scary for the country. Yeah, I think you're right there. You know that we used to have blue dog Democrats Zell Miller who recently passed away. We both knew well. I mean, Zell Miller was a good man and he was a Democratic uh governor in Georgia at the time, and very different party. Remember No ultimately endorsed George that we Bush spoke of the Republican National Convention two thousand four. I knew Zell nineteen sixty three A and I dropped out of college and ran a congressional campaign. So was a young state senator running a Democratic fribrary and so we had a friendship that went for a long time. And when he came to Washington as a senator, Uh, he asked me come for breakfast one morning. I was happy to do it because he's a great guy. And he said he wanted to apologize him and I said, what are you talking about. He said, he used to tell me how left winging the Democratic Party was in Washington, and I didn't believe you. He said, Now that I'm here and I'm in the room, he said, they're worse than you said they were. I had to apologize to him once because I was so hard on him when I was at a radio host in Atlanta. And then we became great friends. Um, he'll be missed. Mr Speaker, will see it tonight on Hannity. Great to have you back, and I hope you're enjoying Italy. Thank you, sir. First of all, it's not really a new set of texts. That's one thing we learned, because this is not some new batch that just went over to Conress. These texts were released earlier, and they were redacted, they were blacked out. And remember what the Justice Department said to Congress. They said, well, struck and page, you're having an affair. I mean, that's private stuff, personal stuff. So we're gonna we're gonna black that out. And Congress said fine. And then they started looking at what was sent over and there were things like meeting tomorrow and so and so's office and that the name would be blacked out, and they thought, well, that doesn't sound like personal stuff. Uh. And some of these names were names like Dennis McDonough, the the chief of staff in the Obama White House. So that has made a number of members of the House has Judiciary Committee very suspicious of what they're getting from uh, Congress, from the Justice Department in this Now the bigger picture is they have been trying to find out in how far knowledge of things like the Trump dossier, the allegations in the Trump dosia, how far did that go up the chain in the Obama administration. Remember, we first thought it was just a few people at the FBI, and then it went higher in the FBI and it was the State Department and now it looks like the White House too. I do not talk to the Attorney General about pending investigations. I do not talk to FBI directors about pending investigations. The we have a strict line and always have maintained it previous president. But I guarantee it. I guarantee that there is no political influence in any investigation conducted by the Justice Department or the FBI, not just in this case, but in any case. And she will be full stop, period, and she will be treated no guaranteed, full stop. Nobody gets treated differently when it comes to the Justice Department, because nobody is above the law, even if she ends up as the Democratic How many times do you have to say, Chris Guarantee to the top of the Shawn toll free telephone number. Did Obama's White House coordinate with the d o G, do o J and the FBI against Donald Trump? And I guarantee there's no political influence in any investigation conducted by the d o J or the FBI. All things we now know to be true. Joining us now, Fox News investigative reporter Sarah Carter, Joe Degeneva of Dejeneva and Tunsing, welcome both of you to the program. We have some news that we've been following. The House Intel Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence demanding that the FBI and the d o J finally comply with their committee subpoenaed to review documents pertaining to the bureau's Russia investigation, and particularly they want the committee to turn over unredacted versions of the original investigative document known as the electronic Communication that launched the FBI counter intelligence investigation into the whole Russia issue. That and of course the question of wells should a president, a sitting president, when there's no underlying crime, be talking to a special counsel. We start with Joe Degeneva. Joe collusion A is not a crime. Firing Comey is not a crime. Hoping that General Flynn doesn't get in trouble after thirty five years of military service, that's not a crime. Looking at the team that Muller is put together and the sesstuous friendships of Mueller and Coleme and Rosenstein and Andrew McCabe, I don't know what the Special Council house in his mind. What should the White House and the lawyers for the White House too, I'm not speaking for the president, but I can tell you this, under no circumstances should the President agree to an interview with Mr Muller. And the reason is very simple. The president, and this is the most important news out of all this nonsense over the last forty eight hours. The President is not a target of a criminal investigation and never has been. From the beginning of this idiotic investigation authorized by the incompetent Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The President is said to be a subject, that is, a person whose conduct is within the scope of the grand jury's investigation. That's pure crap. It doesn't mean anything. He's a witness and guess what, He's a witness who doesn't know anything about anything. The Special Counsel knows that this is nothing more than a fog designed to try and get the President into an interview and trap him into a perjury trap. This is a disgraceful abuse of power by Mueller. It is a disgraceful abuse abuse of supervisory authority by Rosenstein, who has stopped nothing in this idiotic investigation. Rosenstein is a fool, an absolute fool. But he's worse than that. I have finally come to the conclusion that Rod Rosenstein is purposely forcing the issue, to force the president to have a to decide whether or not to testify, to force a constitutional crisis, to force a confrontation in the courts, so that he Rod Rosenstein can stand up just like James Comey did in that idiotic July fifth, two thousand sixteen news conference and claim that the only thing he Rod Rosenstein cares about is the rule of law. Nothing could be farther from the true of Rosenstein is a coward. He didn't want to do all the tough work that had to be done like Sessions has decided to do in apporting appointing Mr Huber to look into the fire. Trust do you trust Mr Huber? I? I do. I do. I have every reason in the world. I've been looking into him. I have every reason in the world to believe that he is a stable guy. And by the way, let me just tell you something, um, John, I've been a U S attorney, I've been an independent council. I've been a prosecutor and an investigator for over forty years. Cadence, there is a cadence to criminality. I want to repeat that for your listeners. There is a cadence to criminality, and the plot to frame President Trump has that criminal cadence. Mr Huber knows that we now know that he's had a grand jury underway for a considerable number of months. I think that Mr Brennan and Mr Clapper have much to worry about. There's no doubt that Mr McDade is gone. He's going down. What about? What about? The only issue now is whether or not the Sally Ates and others who came up with this idiotic, criminal theory that Michael Flynn violated the Logan Act in order to do spying and criminal investigation, whether or not Huber will push the envelope so far as to say that those decisions made by senior d l J people were so politically corrupt that they are criminal. The bottom line for me is it was all criminal, and it it's so obvious right now to a seasoned investigator that there was a plot to frame Trump. If Hillary lost the election, that I am predicting right now, Huber will indict a number of former FBI, d O j C, i A people and it will happen this year. That's a bold prediction. Sarah Carter, let me bring you into all of this. The Washington Post is saying that Robert Mueller is now unlikely to indict Trump, but will issue a series of reports. If he issues reports, well, isn't he basically because he's not gonna die a sitting president anyway, but he's going to issue a report that is going to be interpreted by Nancy Pelosi. Oh, this is an impeachable offense. Therefore, if the Democrats win, they want to impeach him. Isn't that what it's really about. I absolutely believe that's what it's really about. I've been speaking to a number of sources today, Sean that are very concerned about that. You know, they tried to downplay this report. Oh, he's just putting together this obstruction report, his report on what he's just set, what he's discovered. You know, he's really pushing for the President to do this interview with him in order to finalize this report and get this report out. But there I have to agree with Joe Dejenneva here, based on the people that I've been speaking with today, if the President chooses to speak with Mueller, he is really setting himself up. If his attorneys say go ahead and speak with him. He could be setting himself up for some type of perjury trap. I mean, there's there's a lot of leeway here with the special counsel, and he's able to pretty much direct where he wants to go with this. It could be very concerning if the president had speak with him, because he is a subject, not a target, of the investigation. So well, let's talk about how far can Mueller take this show to Jennifer. In other words, the president says, no, there's no underlying crime, and you know, the idea that maybe they want to know what he was thinking at the time when he fired call me, well, thoughts. Thoughts are in crimes, you know. That's why I never understood the idea that you all, you give more penalty for somebody that kills somebody if they have certain thoughts in their head. You should punish murderers, You should punish people that are violent, you know, without trying to. But my question is, what is Mueller's move If the president and his attorney saying no, no, go went not talk, can you well, that depends upon what his purposes. If his purpose is, as the Washington Post has reported, that he just wants to interview a president so he can finalize his report. Then he has absolutely no right to interview the president of the United States. And whether that's his reason or not, Let's assume he writes a report. He can't issue that report. That report goes to Rod Rosenstein. Well, it's obvious what Rod Rosenstein is gonna do. The guy has no cajones. He'll issue the report because that's what he does. He's a bureaucrat, he's a he's a political hack. He pretends to be this above the fray lawyer who makes all these wonderful decisions. Rod Rosenstein is a career guy who cares about one thing, his next job. So what does Mueller do If the President says, I'll answer some written questions and that it, and Muller says, well, that's not good enough in my opinion, because the president is not the target, and because he obviously is not a witness who has any information whatsoever, that this is a trap and he should refuse. The President should refuse, He should refuse to get okay, and then what happens from there. Then then we have Mueller has a choice. Mueller has a choice. He can write in his report that the President refused to testify, and therefore he he harmed the the investigation by not providing his views. He can he can issue with subpoena, which the president can then claim the Fifth Amendment, and then the subpoena has to be withdrawn, and then if Mueller wants to, he could try to immunize the president, at which point he should be fired. Why would he be fired at that point because trying to immunize the president in that scenario as it played out, would show that the only thing he's trying to do is force his testimony so he can trap him into perjury. I don't disagree with anything either one of you are saying, and based on the team of people that he has put together, I think we have to lean in that direction that that's what they're trying. Joe Degenniva, Sarah Carter. The quick break will come back more with them on the other side. Right as we continue with attornade, Joe to Jenneva with the Jenneva and Tunt Singh and also with Sarah Carter, Fox News investigative reporter, Sarah, what are you hearing from Newness and his committee as it relates to the letter that they sent to Rosenstein? And to FBI Director Ray because they have been slow, and even Jeff Sessions is telling them to speed things up. Well, they're certainly concerned because they haven't gotten what they've asked for. And one of the things that they're really looking for is unredacted versions of the documents that they've requested, one being the electronic They call it an electronic communication, And what that really is is the very first document that set off the basically the Trump alleged Trump Russia collusion investigation. What was in that document? Now they received the document, but they received it so heavily redacted. They couldn't even understand what was going on in that document, and they complained about it. Uh, the FBI, I need them on it. Then they said they weren't going to give it to them. And then they said, look, if you don't give us, and this was in the letter, this information by April eleven, we will take matters into our own hands and take this to court. We have subpoenaed you for this. You said you were going to cooperate with us. That was on August twenty four of last year, and now we want this document. Not only do they want that document, they also want all of the Carter page PISA applications. Those are the foreign intelligence surveillance warrants that were on Carter page. Remember the House Intelligence Committee did select Trey Goudy took you those documents because they felt he was the most qualified, and that was when they were going through their report, which they finalized and found no collusion between the president and Russia. But what they want to do is have the members see those FISA applications. They want to have the ability to see it themselves. They want wouldn't that be proof positive that they We know that they knew that Hillary paid for it. We know that they didn't tell the visor Chord, so the information was presented under false pretenses. They purposely omitted information. Joe de Gennifer, why do I believe if I purposely lied to a judge and handed over unverified, false information that was paid for by a political opponent and not telling them, why do I think I'd be in jail and you probably couldn't even get me out. You would be But here's what's interesting about what Sarah just reported. According to Sarah, Newness has said, if they don't produce the documents, they're going to go to court. Why are they going to go to court that's putting the faith, their faith in the hands of the third party. Why aren't they moving to hold the same people in contempt like they did recently with with sessions with Ray and Rosenstein? Has Ryan told them not to use contempt as a way to enforce their subpoenas. If that's the case, this oversight situation is going to be lengthy and it will not be over before the election. That is really chilling and frightening at last. It Sarah ahead, Well, so I think that definitely is an option for them, Joe and and Sean, and I think this is something they're very serious about. Look, I have heard that there will be a lot of infighting this next week between both of them, and it appears that probably in the end, Director Ray is going to give up that electronic communication because according to the sources that I've spoken with, this is not considered a highly classified document. This is a document that the House members have requested and that they would be willing to see. And remember it goes all the way back to George Papadopolis. If this is what they said started the investigation, they want to know all the details and all the facts of what originally started in all right, thank you both phenomenal work. Uh, Sarah Carter and Joe Degeneva. Also Dan Bongino, Jonathan Gillham and Diamond of Diamond and Silk will be with us. We'll tell you all about the different overall patterns and etcetera that's going on. Has Big Brother now finally arrived as conservatives now are being constantly monitored and censored Shaw on toll free number quick break right back, we'll continue. I'm the first to admit that we didn't take a broad enough view of what our responsibilities were. But I also think it's important to keep in mind that there are billions of people who love the services that we're building because they're getting real value and being able to connect and build relationships on a day to day basis. And Uh, that's something that I'm really proud of our company for doing, and and I know that we're gonna keep on doing that. All right, that was Mark Zuckerberg and his comments we don't take a broad enough view of what our responsibilities are. Now I'm gonna do a deep dive this hour news round up information overload into the idea that there's a lot of censorship all over social media, and appears that the people that have censored the most are conservatives. And you know, it's been happening all over the place, and I have more people writing me and telling me it's happening on Twitter, it's happening on Facebook, it's happening on other social media sites. I'll give you one example. Marcia Blackburn of Tennessee, a congresswoman, has been said because she's pro life, and she shared those views on Facebook. Anyway, it ends up that they apparently took down her posting because they didn't like it. And she has now introduced what's called the Browser Act last June, and that's going to require Internet service providers, you know, as well as current providers like Facebook and Google and Twitter, to obtain a user's consent before collecting and selling their information for marketing, which we now know a lot of these companies are doing, and a lot of us, of course, in this day and age of identity theft, have got to be very careful of now. Congresswoman Blackburn is also running for the US Senate to replace Bob Corker. Would be an incredible step up in my opinion, how are you. I'm doing well. Looks like Tennessee's gonna get rid of a Trump hating senator and replace them with you, which I hope you win those race. I thank you for that, and we are working hard. I tell you, we think that Tennessee and want to get solid conservative in the U s. And if they want somebody there who is going to help Donald Trump get his agenda across the finish line. So important that you say that. Let's talk about how were you censored for your pro life beliefs and where what where did it happen. Yes, it happened on Twitter and I had put a campaign video and in it I mentioned my pro life beliefs. I mentioned that I led the fight UH and the investigation into what was happening between Planned Parenthood ending the Start Party body part sellers, and UH we were successful in that investigation, issued ficking criminal referrals and Planned Parenthood as being investigated by the Department of Justice in the FBI, as are these body part sellers. So anyway, Twitter didn't like that message and decided that they would Joseph Lockett, but they recanted and then decided that would let the message go back up. But here's the thing on this There is censorship, there is prioritization that is taking place. And as you mentioned, with these edge providers, which are Google and Facebook and YouTube and your social media outlets, what they are doing is it's data mining. They are using your data to sell advertising and they are monetizing your data. And Sean, this is the thing that caused me to introduce the Browser Act, because what big tech had wanted was one set of privacy rules for the Internet service providers, the I s p s, and then a different set of privacy rules for all of your social media outlets. What cause they make your money by data mining and then show access to Well, this is what happened. Facebook acknowledged that that in fact, the personal information of up to eighty seven million users, mostly here in the US, may have been improperly shared with political consultancy this group, Cambridge and Analytics, and up from previous news media estimates of fifty million, and Zuckerbird said in a conference call with the reporters, Facebook had not seen any meaningful impact on usage or ad sales since the scandal, and they said it's it's not good if people are unhappy with the company. Uh to me, that just seemed like, you know, they have left open of vulnerability. Whereby I mean I got in trouble once for putting up a link on my my website for my best friend since childhood because he was running for congress, and that was I was charged with making an in kind donation. So in this sense, Facebook allowing this data to be mind this way would be warrant. They wouldn't they be giving in kind donations in that sense. Well, I think even more specific than than that is working as a way. Facebook and Google and Yahoo and YouTube and all of these are profiting from your data because they are going in here and then they turn around and they shall They allow people to snooze in and look at everything you're going through, everything you're searching, They look at what you are, who you're talking to, They make those connections. And then when you sit down to your computer, you have all and you go into a search engine, are you go into a social media platform, happens all of a sudden, You've got all of these advertisements that are popping up all over your screen. That's because they are running They have an algorithm that is running the demographics on you, and they're deciding where it is that you want to eat, what you want to wear, who you associate with, what your thoughts are, and they are benefiting and they are profiting from that. And one of the things that I look at is how these social media companies have become big advertising companies. And they will say, well, the sign off is you say, we're going to let you use our service for free, but because of that, we're going to use access to your data. And then not only are we going to use access, uh take access to your data, we are going to sell the reason als of that data mining that we do. And then we're going to place sads and that we're going to let these advertisers into your life. Now, what they will say, but they'll what they'll say is well, we anonymize it all that it's not it's anonymous, that's right, and but but but but but they do have the ability to basically spy on any individual if they want. Of course, of course, because if they're doing it with the algorithms. And this is why in the Browser Act when I wrote that, what I said was, look, let's allow people to opt in. I believe in privacy, and I believe an individual should reserve to themselves the right to protect their privacy. This is something that is given to you in the Bill of Rights, and even online you with your virtual you, you have the right to protect your information online. So instead of all these platforms that are opt out, let's turn it around and say to the consumer, you have your shield of privacy, and then you can choose to share the information that you want to share with a provider of a service, and you can allow access to somebody for that service. Now, Sean, some people will say, I like to getting uh uh getting alert, and I like getting notifications on my phone that I'm near a coffee shop and they have a special going on, or I'm near a restaurant, or I'm near uh some other entities where there is something special. They like that. They like that geo locations. Um, but to me, it's too intrusive. But you gotta agree with you about opting in, all right, so we're going to continue to follow it. And um, I think what you're doing is the right thing. And it's amazing. Well, the censorship of conservatives and people with political views, frankly, all views. I don't want anybody censored, even views that I find repugnant. I happen to make my living with the First Amendment, and it's the left that's constantly out there trying to silence conservative voices. But I just want I don't think they should have the right to sense or anybody unless maybe it's a direct threat of violence or some or a terroristic threat of some kind. Well, that is right. You know the virtual space, you function as free speech does and privacy does in the physical space, And just because it's on line does not mean that you give up your right to privacy or the expectation of being able to exercise that right to privacy. So this is why we're working back through UH this issue, and we're looking forward to having Mark Zuckerberg in front of us next week and looking forward to UH seeing where he is right now. They have fought privacy and data security legislation, they have fought those consumer protections, and then they have censored views with which they disagreed. So we look forward to hearing their explanations next week. Thank you so much and good luck. How's the campaign going down in Tennessee? Listing campaign is going great. We're working on it every single day and really excited about the opportunity. I appreciate you being one of those eight hundred nine four one Shawn toll free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program. Let's get some calls in here. Uh. Tom is an Oyster Bay, New York hometown. What's up, Tom? How are you? Sir? Hi Sean a long time listener, first time caller. Well, welcome onboard, my friend. I just want to know, do you think that more investigation will be over before? I'd like to think so, but I don't know. I think they are wrapping it up. I mean, I think the last step in this is gonna be the negotiation. Does the President talk to them or not talk to them? I tend to agree with the attorneys. I've been interviewed to Jenneva Dershowitz, people like the great one, Mark Levin and Greg Jarrett. Uh that I think this is all one big perjury trap. There's no underlying crime. Collusion is not a crime. It's now become a witch hunt, and it's gone way beyond what the regular mandate is. I think Rod Rosenstein approving the expansion of the investigation a week after they had already rated Paul Manafort's home I'm Paul Manafort's attorney. I think that's gonna be a big win in the end for them, and I, you know, and then I look at the team that Mueller's appointed, and I think you have people that are bitter, bitter partisans with atrocious track records in the legal profession. And these guys have no compunctions about withholding exculpatory evidence of my stable cases. They've been overturned by the U. S. Supreme Court. Nine zero people have gone to jail that are innocent, both in the case of Mueller and Andrew Weissman hundred million dollar plus a settlement in the Whitey Bulger case when when he was in Boston and he was running that department, and uh, the same thing with Andrew Weisman for meryal executives. Tens of thousands of people losing their jobs at Anderson and County. All of this tells me it stinks to high heaven. This never should have been brought together in the first place. And I found the president, I wouldn't talk to him. And Muller, you want to push it, that push it. Let's go game on. Let's see what happens. Right as we continue, are is in Charlotte in North Carolina. Hey, Gary, how are you? I'm glad you called, sir. Oh, thank you a long time listening. Roller back to Hannity and Colmes, Wow, thank you A little A little background here from myself, I'm the medical professional and naty veteran questions or two points is why aren't we calling what's happening? To watch? And what it truly is, which is a smoke with two day Tom. You hear this faction, the inter chamber or the inner circle of the group trying to overthrow an upset and a duly elected president or upset the government, and by definition it's to that's a soft coup. I mean, there's no doubt in my mind. You know that. That's why if you put the fix in for Hillary, and you allow Hillary to get away with obvious felonies, multiple felonies and obstruction, and you exonerate her before you investigate her, and the fixes in to keep her in there. They they thought she was gonna beat Donald Trump. And then the Plan B is the insurance policy, and on top of it, then you've got the Plan C is you know, well, let's buy on these people and let's use Hillary has bought and paid for Russian propaganda dossier. I mean, it's really I don't think you can make this up in in a novel, to be honest, you can. My second point is, since they worked for the people, and that's the people's House, why doesn't the House, either the Intelligence Committee, the Oversight Committee, the Judicial Committee call in Mueller and Mosenstein under oath and just asked them why they're not investigating FISA And there was inclusion on the other side of the coin and put them on public notice, put under a Well, that's why people like myself I don't think Rod Rosenstein is capable of or Mueller is capable, nor are they ever going to be capable of investigating themselves. Now we're talking about the highest levels of the FBI and the d J. We're talking about real corruption, and we're talking about real crimes committed. And that's why people like myself have been fighting for a second special counsel. And the Attorney General addressed that last week that since November, this guy, John Huber, a prosecutor in Salt Lake City, he has been tasked with looking into these issues. And the way the Attorney General explained it, that's part of a process. Now, when we get information from the Inspector General's report, well, that would mean John Hoober can take that information and set up a grand jury and then they can go out and indictments can be given. And if there is justice and equal justice under the law, and we remain a constitutional republic and we don't have a two tier justice system, one for the Clintons and one for the rest of us, then I really believe that everything that we've been telling you about is going to be proven and and then some and there's so much more that I know that's coming out. I think the cases are overwhelming and incontrovertible. So we're gonna stay on a Gary, That's all I can tell you. So I appreciate you staying with us. Thanks for serving your country too. All right, when we come back, more of the social media abuses and censoring of conservatives. Jonathan Gilham, Damn Bongino, and Diamond of Diamond and Silk Fame will join us next now until the top of the hour, nine for one, Shawn, if you want to be a part of the program. So at the beginning of this hour, we had Marcia Blackburn on talking about censorship on social media sites Twitter and Facebook and others. Basically, these companies have an ability to spy on every American and instances where we know in fact it's happening. Anyway, We've assembled a group of people that have, on one level or another, been dealing with all of this. We've dealt with it on our show. I mean, we don't do any Twitter direct messages anymore. What was the words that they were trying to use compromised? How do we restore our right to privacy? How do we protect First Amendment rights? And how do we protect against data mining as a means of creating profiles against us to make us buy stuff or whatever other reason they're using it for. Dan Bongino, former Secret Service agent, Jonathan Gillham, former Navy seal, author of the book Sheep No More, and the One and Only Diamond of Diamond and Silk Fame are here to talk about this abuse and bias, especially against conservatives on social media. Diamond will start with you as Diamond and Silk ever been censored on social media? Oh? Absolutely, on YouTube, on Twitter, and on Facebook. We have over a million followers on Facebook, and now Facebook has decided to put in these algorithms where people can't receive notifications. We don't come up in our people that like and follow our pages New Feet and I just stumb it down our videos, dumbing down anything that we say, and we think it's sad. This is clearly discrimination, and this is clearly says a ship of our conservative voices. What's happened to you, Dan Bongino, Well, this is a trip. I was in a hotel room up in New York. I was actually getting ready to do your show and I get an email and I thought it was a phishing email. It was from Twitter, and it said you were no longer eligible to run Twitter ads. And I swear I thought it was a joke, Sean, and I said it to my wife. I said, is this real? And it turns out it was real. And the reason Sean get a lot of trip out. It's approach. By the way, this is why I love Dan Bongino, former secret service guy at the DY What you're gonna they'll trip you out? Man, It's unbelievable. This is what's happening on social media. Um, well, I wasn't dropping acid, but it did actually happen. I said to my wife, if you have you seen any inappropriate content, And believe me, if it was, she would tell me. She goes, I don't know what they're talking about. So they banned us from running ads, and even worse, they would never tell us what the inappropriate content was. But I'll answer that for Yet it was being a conservative. There's no doubt in my mind. Well that's the thing. I mean, they're only going after Jonathan Conservatives, it seems. Have there been any instances. I have not seen an outcry from people on the left that they're being censored. No, I haven't heard. I actually haven't heard that at all. And here's what's really interesting is when you try to complain on somebody who attacks you from the left, it's virtually impossible. But somehow they're always able to complain on us when we say something that they don't like. Every time they can just do it and somebody gets blocked. And here's my instance to one with Facebook at one point, and I've never monetized my show because yet one one of the things it was with the YouTube or excuse me, with Facebook, I had a million, uh people reaching every night my show was reaching a million people, and within a week it went down to about three thousands, and then on to two weeks ago, I was restricted from putting any live videos on because I did a show on David Hogg and I criticized him. The next day, they said I was buying and pull off because well, we know that Facebook staffers had sought to delete Donald Trump's post calling, you know, on his position about immigration and and vetting people from certain countries, and that would ended up being a violation. They view to the company's hate speech policies. Well, who defines what hate speeches? I thought this was the United States of America where we had free speech now short of a direct threat against an individual, or or threatening harm against somebody, or threatening a terrorist activity of some kind. Uh, isn't it pretty routine that people can be pretty vicious on social media? Dan Bungee know you know, where does the line go? Yeah? You know, you're right, Sean. And here's the problem with social media. They want to have it both ways. And let me be clear, I am not endorsing or recommending any government intervention. I'm for a limited government all over the place. But social media wants it both ways. They don't want to be treated like a publisher, like say the Wall Street Journal of The New York Times, sean that could be legally responsible for defamatory information. Everybody knows the rules. Um, if you if Fox news dot COM's name thing, But what social media wants to say, Oh no, no, we're not responsible. People just put up their stuff. They're not our ideas and we don't have editorial control. But that's not true, Sean. They do have editorial control because they blocked conservative and it's open sea. Well. In sixteen, Facebook workers admitted that they were routinely suppressing conservative news stories from their quote trending news section. We recently had a Facebook rejecting an add with a crucifix. They deemed an image of Jesus on the cross as quote too violent and in the in the past, Facebook approved hate groups while shutting down Christian groups, and they removed a patriotic picture honoring fallen Marines. I mean, these are just a few examples that we have, Diamond, What did you experience, Well, you know, we experience instead our videos from a million views, like said, all the way down to three thousand, if not less. We cannot put out a rant video or video about how we feel about things anymore. It's not reaching anybody. They got these algorithms in place to dump down your videos, and this is happening all other places. But if I want to see somebody get shot in the head, I can find that's millions of videos. If I want to see somebody talking bad about our president, they reached millions of people and they don't even have but a handful of followers. So it is discrimination and it's not fair. It's biased. What should we do when there's like a terroristic threat. One of the things that we have pointed out, Jonathan gill him over and over again is that a lot of these people that end up either in these school shootings or these terrorists activities, we go to the social media sites and we always find, oh, they were telegraphing it's all coming. Now. We've got a razor's edge here between freedom and freedom of speech. And also those people that are are basically making threats on social media, don't we have laws that you can't make terroristic threats against individuals, You can't threaten people on social media. Short of that, is everything else fair game. Like for example, there's the publication the Anarchist Cookbook. They literally in that book teach you how to build bombs to kill people. You know, what do you do in that case? Do you allow that to to go up on social media? That's the fine line right there. And I do think when it has to do with national security or it has to do with threats, I mean, there's a clear difference between hate speech and threat A lot of the hate speech, while it may not be enjoyable to listen to, it is still a lot of this is covered through the First Amendment and our freedom of speech. And I get that they want to eliminate some of this stuff to make a greater, more happier world, whatever that is that the liberals may feel. But the problem is when you start trying to regulate hate speech, it's it gets in the way of doing exactly what you're talking about, looking for people who are doing real things that are national security threat that are real dangerous to people. And they don't make it easy for people to complain on the right things because they're trying to protect people from hate speech and things like that. I'll give you an example, Dan Bongino Netflix. There was it was actually an interview of the guy that wrote the Anarchist Cookbook, and it was back in the day, it was thought that maybe Timothy McVeigh actually had used that and and part of the planning of the Oklahoma City bombing, or is a book that he at least had read or been associated with in some way. Uh, this guy said, well, I didn't write this book built about how to build bombs so people would actually do it. I'd never write a book about how to build a bomb or how to kill somebody with you. No, I have nothing to do with it. But I mean we've but we've seen this again and again shown the double standard on YouTube, where there's there's propaganda for you know, Islamo fascist fascists out there on YouTube. You know, there's Hollywood violent videos out there on YouTube, and then yet YouTube recently, I don't know if you guys saw this, one took down a lot of gun videos. I mean not just regular firearm videos where people were putting together firearms, teaching you how to uh put them together, take them apart, disassemble them. They took down a lot of those videos. I've watched some of those videos. I like it from the standpoint it's educational and and a lot of people you know that they know that, you know, with an increase in terrorist activity and home invasions and school shootings and church shootings that you know, people want maybe if they're if they're thinking, if they ever find themselves in that situation, they want to be able to defend themselves, right, John, I mean I got an accessory for an a R fifteen recently, and I had a tough time putting it on the rail. It was the piece I was missing. I went to YouTube a little while ago and I watched the video and and and so what would you rather? You'd rather a bunch of uneducated people not knowing what to do with the firearms they I mean, it's so stupid and illogical. It really it boggles the mind trying to decide where liberalism Well, that's true, Jonathan, or I'm sorry, Uh, you know, Diamond, I always have a hard time. I don't know what your last name is. I just call you Diamond. Oh what, Diamon's fine or Diamond hardaway or just calm be Diamond. I love it, but go ahead? What what what is it? Sean? Well, I'm trying to understand what happens. Why would diamond and silk very very funny? You even have the diamond and Silk Tour now going to cities all across America. And you guys, but you have strong, biting commentary. I've never heard you guys cross any lines. You certainly are non violent. You just support your president and you take a lot of heat for it. But why would they ever want to censor you guys? Because they don't like our conservative point of view. If I'm telling somebody to go out there and get into it with the police and a CAFU, oh, that would get plenty of us. But because I'm telling people we can no longer vote for the same system that keeps handing us crumbs. We need to support our president because we have more money in our pocket. They don't like to hear that. They want to keep us where we are all down, where we are in a box where they can control us, where they can dominate and they can manipulate us. That's what they're doing and it can't be tolerated. And we understand that these platforms are autonomous platforms and entities, but he has to deal. They don't have the right to silence conservative voices. And who makes the determination? What you should see? What you said, she see? What you should hear? What you shouldn't hear. I mean best dominationous is what they doesn't like. Somebody's dictate to us. Okay, well we don't like what you say, so you bet you can't. We can't let your stuff be seen, but we'll let Well it even gets worse. There's a CNBC report that is out today and it actually the headline is Facebook sent a doctor on a secret mission to ask hospitals to share patient data. They were in talks with top hospitals other medical groups as recently as last month about a proposal to share data about the social networks of their most vulnerable patients. And you know, the idea was to build profiles of people, including their medical conditions and information and so on and so forth. But is there anything more intrusive than people's private personal health care? Uh, Jonathan Gillham, I mean that that is unbelievady. That just shows you the nefarious ways that they that they're working. And here's something that goes right along with this shown it. Everybody needs to realize Facebook owns Instagram. It also owns What's App. A lot of people use and think that they're fully secure. If Facebook is doing this and in getting into people's direct messages on Messenger, on Facebook. I can guarantee it's happening on Instagram, is happening in What's App, and these people communicate. This is the other thing Dan got centered on Twitter. I've been centered on Twitter. I've been censored on YouTube. Diamond's been censored on YouTube and Facebook. The fact that they have we been said certain anyway, I don't even I have no clue. I we've we've had some posts that we've put up that we've tried to get up, and they've said that this is um sensitive time slow when quote Hannity's account is quote compromised. But let's also remember, let's remember all the threats that we had against you, the threats against you. Chill during the threats against your house, the threats against you. You know that they're gonna wave gehat over you. I mean there's there you know, fought wall is being waged on Twitter. But somehow the fault wa escapes everybody at Twitter. They never and they never take them down, or we have a hard You have a hard time because I don't do it. You have a hard time getting them taken down when they make these threats. Yeah, I have to get in touch with a lot of people. You know, Jack is a very busy man. At Jack on Twitter. Yeah, at Jack on Twitter, he doesn't answer you. You know, he's got things to do. Him and Mark, you know they're looking up your private information in Mark Zuckerberg. No, but I'm asking you. But you have actually reached out to the guy. So who do you deal with when we are I've spoken to their legal counsel as well some other friends that I have on the inside that they basically, I'm guessing you threaten that we're going to soothe them, and that's how you get so. I never threatened. I recommend ideas, recommend we might soothe them. I recommend ideas and make suggestions about possible activities. By the way, everybody that knows you on this line and knows exactly what you know what I'm saying, Dan Bongino, you see what I have to deal with every day. Yeah, I dealt with Lynda on one of these threat to do and let me tell you stuff. You want anyone to have your back, it's Linda. See that's one you should just say thank you and move on. Run through forget about running through a fire. She'll she'll stand the fire. Just you know, I got thank you, Dan. I got into this with Mark Levin once. And there's there's crap up on my Wikipedia page that is not true, And any idiot can go in there and write lies about you. Why would Wikipedia allow that? Why don't You don't know? But that's and it's true. That is the truth, and all of that kind of stuff, even having your information out there killing people. Maybe I'll sue them. Maybe I'll do that. Yeah. I had a guy yesterday on Twitter put on there that after the shooting at YouTube that Jonathan Gilhan went on CNN saying that the girl was just mentally ill. I haven't been on scene instance two thousand fifteen, but he's good for you. He's hardest. By the way, it shows your staying power if you haven't been on a three years and they're still talking about on fake news and all right, So you have Hannity tonight, nineties tarn on the Fox News show all Right, New King Rich makes his return appearance The Great One, Mark Levin, Jonathan Turley, George Washington University law professor Greg Jarrett, Sarah Carter, Dan Bongino, and Tommy Laryn versus Kathy Arue.
