A right, glad you with us one hundred sixty nine days till election day. You we the American people. You will be the ultimate jury. And what's happening. There's a lot. It was phenomenal from my perspective. NASCAR had like huge ratings over the weekend. They had this this Rory McElroy and Justin Johnson golf outing. By the way, Jim Gray will join us later. How to open sports and open it safely. I had a friend of mine sneak to me a little bit some of the well discussions going on with MLB. It's gonna be a fine You're gonna have to thread the needle to make sure that the players are paid, that the that the owners don't lose hundreds of millions of dollars. How to bring fans in and bring them in safely. But at least they're having that discussion. The President called in yesterday to talk was during the Tailor Made Driving relief event. Jimmy dunna is the guy that I don't put this on together, the guy that runs seminole and anyway, he called in and said sports are a vital part of the nation's psyche and people were starving to watch NASCAR, starving to watch golf, they'd love to watch baseball, and opening it up, I think is just going to be the biggest, safest sign that we're doing well again. I'm not I won't belabor the point it is. You know, we've learned lessons here. I mean, if you look at states that that protected the elderly and most vulnerable, and if you look at states that didn't, you see a dramatic increase in the death rate in those states that didn't. I mean, it was so stupid, you know, to have these executive orders in New York and Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Michigan. She was awful, God awful. You see a dramatic, dramatic increase in the number of people contracting corona number one, number two, you see the dramatic increase in death and a lot of this could have been prevented if you if they would have followed the lead of Governor Rond Santas. We do have good news on the corona front. Over the weekend, the President announced that US researchers putting the pedal to the metal in their quest to develop a coronavirus vaccine by the end of the year. The New York Post had a write up on them today and it sounds like the President may have had a heads up, I guess on today's big news. But the company leading the race now to develop a coronavirus vaccine announced positive early findings today with participants producing antibodies to ward off the disease. Now, I don't want to get out in front of our skis here. It's very early, but in terms of viruses, it's not early at all. Remember, we were able to break down the sequence of the coronavirus in record time. It used to take years and years and years to do this. You know, I've always said I believe in our medical community, our medical researchers or medical scientists, they're the best in the world anyway. So the biotech company that's called Moderna dosed forty five patients. Again anecdotal, just the beginning, but the fact that we're able to be at this point, at this stage in any pandemic, this is all record setting time, and nobody's ever broken down the sequence of a virus this quickly and got to the point now we're having human trials on this anyway. So they dosed forty five patients between the age of eighteen and fifty five with twenty five one hundred and two hundred and fifty micrograms of their experimental drug. After receiving a second booster shot, those at the twenty five and one hundred levels, they were found with antibody levels that were the equivalent two or exceeded those found impatients that had recovered from COVID nineteen. Now, think about that, this is at the low end of the dosage that they were giving out. Again, you have these patients eighteen to fifty five, three separate doses twenty five one hundred and two hundred and fifty micrograms of their experimental drug drug. After receiving a second booster shot, those with the twenty five and hundred the low end dosage levels were found with antibody levels that were equal or exceeding those found impatients that recovered from COVID nineteen. Now, the CEO, Stephanie Bansil, told Bloomberg that the results couldn't have been better. This is a good sign that we make an antibody that can stop the virus from replicating. Now, the experimental vaccine was found to be generally safe well tolerated among patients. And they're beginning now the next round of testing, which should begin about a month or so. So that's all good news. It shouldn't surprise you that these states that forced COVID nineteen patients into long term care facilities for the elderly or nursing homes. Yeah, they're about to get whacked with one lawsuit after another, these blue state governors. California alone now is facing at least a dozen lawsuits that include claims that the state unjustly closed down gunshops, religious services, infridged on freedoms. We're being challenged, Newsom said, and he said out, I guess on Sunday, all across the country, every single day, governors are being challenged. Well, most governors blew it. Most governors absolutely positively blew it. Those that did well Texas, Florida. It shouldn't surprise you why, because you've got they both. Most states have a high percentage of their population being older people. Michigan Governor Whitmer is up against the lawsuit in her state's House and Senate over the extension of an already strict emergency order. Wisconsin State Supreme Court struck down that state's Safer at Home on Wednesday order and the governor of Tony Evers, a Democrat, overstepping their authority when extending the order. Kentucky protesters sued officials, including the governor down there also a Democrat, for alleging violating First Amendment right rights of people by banning any protesting. He got another lawsuit an a federal judge blocking the Kentucky governor's ban on in person church services. The Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton he warned that he could take action against the cities of Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas if they don't scale back these orders. So, I mean this is only the beginning of COVID lawsuits. I think the people would that would have the probably the best chance would be people that were literally you'll lose grandma and grandpa, mom and dad because you sent them into a nursing home where the government forced those nursing homes to take in COVID nineteen patients. Although they were screaming, don't send them to us, We're not prepared. New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, they had no excuse because the president was building and manning all of these hospitals and changing the ventilation like they did at the Javit Center for the three thousand bed hospital there, they only used a little over a thousand beds. They only used one hundred and eighty two of the thousand beds on the Navy hospital ship Comfort. It's nuts, you know, if you look at these states, there's such a dramatic difference. You know, New York state income tax the only ten percent, California thirteen point five percent. Both those states are in debt up to their eyeballs. California, you know you're in debt fifty four billion. No wonder why you know. I'm watching Gavin Newsom. Oh, it's the right thing to do. We've got to take care of the people in our state. We've got to be bailed out. No, you don't. If it's not COVID related, not gonna happen. Linda, I sent you a tweet that I saw this weekend, which I really liked. I said, there are a few places I can't figure out. How do you possibly do it? How do you open up a restaurant? Now I'm seeing people in mask except obviously when they're eating. Uh. Now, I got this picture from uh. I forgot. I was on Twitter what it might look like in casinos, and I was shocked at how brilliant this was. Everybody's sitting around a table six feet apart, and you got the dealer six feet apart. Everybody's in a mask. I was stunned by that. People are smart. I should have thought of it. I probably were. People are losing so much more so much. Money's horrible. So they're making a big deal on left wing media in Long Island. They have this channel, it's called News twelve, Long Island. And anyway, so you got this guy, Kevin VESSI is that his name? A reporter out there, Yeah, that's um posting footage of his Twitter feed and I guess he did a live Twitter video thing and the protesters. Fake news is not essential. You're the virus, you know, Go home, listen to what happened. He's trying to get fine on the sidemark, that's all. He shouldn't be here. You stop. You stopped airing the Trump briefings, and you keep aaring glomma briefings called who have We all know you, little Tina. We know you want to keep your job. We get it. You're not getting how are you ding dollars out? You want it, You're not gonna answer. It's gonna go live R. I am getting. I'm very happy. But other people used to be a good channel at one time. I don't know what happens to stop stop. It's sort of like go back to the Trump rallies. Remember they would chant CNN, uh sucks or fake news. You know, listen to this, Well that's show. We gotta pull up because that's a little old. But look at that. I asked for that, but I asked for that before the show. But let's let's let's let bygones be by guns. Now. Imagine in New York it's getting very tense now. People have had it all weekend long. All I saw on TV where people in New York outside of bars they were drinking. Look. The only thing I would add, and I love the fighting spirit of Americans. Love they want to get back to living in normal life. A lot of people at these protests, there's no social distancing at all that I can see. A couple there are, but not most of them. And outside these bars, not a whole lot of social distancing. But I did see some people with masks on but a lot of people without them. That is probably the biggest danger you have that would facilitate a large rebound, not just a hot spot rebound, but a large rebound. And I know it's probably is like the biggest pain in the neck getting lectured by a bunch of politicians that are a bunch of incompetent idiots. But I'm looking at it from a whole different point of view. I'm not looking at it that Governor Cuomo or Comrade Doblasio or telling me what to do or not do for me. It's like, Okay, if I get the virus, I'll be fine. If I'm around some older people that are have underlying conditions or have some type of immune system compromise, I don't want to give it to them, so and it's only a short period of time. Probably at some point things will slow down, get better and better throughout the summer. We'll watch for the fall potential rebound, and then I think the medical community is gonna, you know, shock the world as they always do, and come up with the answer, be it a treatment or some type of what they're describing here. What I described earlier was a treatment. It wasn't even coronavirus. I don't think they were injecting, but it's creating the antibodies. I will get to Obama's little cheap, cheap shots at Donald Trump that's coming up today just watching you know, governors now being swamped by these lawsuits. What was the I thought flatten the curve? When did flatten the curve ever become we won't open up until we have a cure. Well, then I guess we're never leaving our house because there's always going to be something, which I guess it was Garcetti out in Los Angeles saying that now Michigan doctors are suing over the shutdown. Doctors want to be able to go into work. Now. We're also running a risk here because elective surgery has now been put on the side for such a long period of time. That's gonna be problematic down the road. The elites Illinois business owners facing fines. I mean they're taking away in Michigan the license of a barber guy that's been doing it forty or fifty years. Illinois business owners are going to face jail time if they reopen their business. You know, America is sat back here. This is what Washington and these governors haven't figured out. The American people have stood back, They've studied this, they have watched closely. We know now more than ever, we know that when you protect the elderly, those with underlying conditions, protect nursing home, protect long term care facilities, you're gonna save a lot of lives and not do what New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan did. We know that people wearing masks as they did in the middle of this shift show in New York and Long Island, they do what they do better. Now we're having some confusion over the numbers of people that might have contracted it. You know, I've heard anecdotal arguments on both sides of it. I'm not going to get lost on top of that. I know in New York they weren't even they were just saying COVID nineteen, but they didn't even know if people had COVID at all. James O'Keefe put out some pretty fascinating video on that. But now if you're listening to the Democratic governors, now it's all become about money. Now. The Democratic governors now they say we have an obligation to be bailed out by Washington. Really, why should red states that balance their budgets? Why should red states that fund their pensions? Why that? Why should they be paying for the waste, fraud, abuse, mismanagement of their funds to bail out other states that have not been fiscally responsible. They're not going to do it all right. So that was a moment that took place at a sports center, facility, workout place thingy, whatever you call those places, a gym and anyway, so they have this order at in New Jersey. And so that was the police officer that came up and said, yeah, I see that you're not in following the rules. You all have a great day, see you, and walked away like I'm not getting involved in forcing people whether or not they can go to the gym or not go to the gym. This was funny. In Long Island, so Nassau County, they have a local executive. County executive is what they call this person. The name is Laura Current, and so she made a big announcement that the tennis courts have reopened in time for Memorial Day on Long Island. Okay, do we have the cut yet? We're getting nippofs I gotta edit one thing out of it. It's not airible. I'll just put it in and hit the beep every player. I'm not even gonna say. If I say it, it's gonna go viral. And anyway, it did go viral on the internet, and a lot of people have just been dying over this thing because they have specific rules if you're playing tennis, like one person only gets to play with the yellow tennis balls, the other one gets to play with the pink tennis balls, of the green tennis balls or whatever colored tennis ball you got. I didn't know that. I think, yeah, I think I've seen pink. Well, you are a tennis afficionado. So if anybody want understand this, yeah, exactly. Anyway, it was pretty funny. Let me go to some other news here. So Barack Obama does this, I guess alm Hole commencement speech and anyway, and what does he do What Barack Obama does best, and that is take shots at Donald Trump when he can. He's been somewhat quiet. Now I have my own theory on this. Now that we know about the January fifth meeting, Now we know the House Intelligence Committee testimony of Sally Yates and after this January fifth meeting, she was asked too, along with Jim Comey, SuperPatriot, to stay back, and that's where Yates said she was shocked to learn that Obama knew all about the unmasking of General Flynn and etc. Etc. So I think part of this is a distraction. I think part of this is people are saying, Joe can't win without your Barack, we need you, but this is what he said about Donald Trump. This pandemic has shaken up the status quo and laid bear a lot of our countries deep seated problems, from massive economic inequality, to ongoing racial disparities, to a lack of basic healthcare for people who need it. It's woken a lot of young people up to the fact that the old ways of doing things just don't work, that it doesn't matter how much money you make if everyone around you is hungry and sick, and that our society and our democracy only work when we think not just about ourselves, but about each other. It's also pulled the curtain back on another hard truth, something that we all have to eventually accept once our childhood comes to an end, and all those adults that used to think or in charge and knew what they were doing. Turns out they don't have all the answers. A lot of them aren't even asking the right questions. So if the world's going to get better, it's going to be up to you. Second, do what you think is right, doing what feels good, what's convenient, what's easy. That's how little kids think. Unfortunately, a lot of so called grownup including some with fancy titles and important jobs, still think that way, which is why things are so screwed up. I hope that instead you decide to ground yourself in values that last, like honesty, hard work, responsibility, fairness, generosity. You know. The first thing is, I'm listening to this over the weekend, I'm just wow. I'm just thinking this guy was he did the worst job. When this all gets going soon, which is the election, Barack Obama is not going to and I think some way, in his own head he thinks he's going to be able to come in as the anointed one and save Joe Biden from himself. Even his own top of advisors like David Axerog it is like, yeah, he if he can't cut it, he needs to get out. You know, you either make it on your own or you don't make it on your own. So it's just interesting he wants to get in now, is it in part because he knows that that that January fifth, twenty seventeen meeting where he knew all about the unmasking of General Flynn, that the main question remains, what did you know? When did you know it? Because that's a important question that he's going to have to answer at some point and the same if he doesn't answer it, well, sleepy crazy Joe Biden, the ever confused one, is going to have to answer it also. So the President now rightly called out Obama for being grossly incompetent. Now we talked more about this in the beginning of this pandemic. You know, if you go back H one N one or is Joe calls it N one H one? What happened swine flew that virus in particular, well, that impacted kids, and we had a couple of hundred thousand people hospitalized, and before Obama himself said it was a you know, national emergency. Now he did have one health official declared emergency, but not him. There were a thousand people dead by that point. Now it was not anywhere near as deadly a virus as coronavirus, so he never dealt with this type of virus before. And to add insult to injury, Joe Biden was saying that it's hysterias, enophobic, and fearmongering. The travel band that two months and three days later he said was probably a good idea only because it's obviously been a good idea. It is incalculable how many lives were saved as a result of that one decision. January thirty first of last of the I'm sorry of this year. First known case Corona January twenty first travel band January thirty first. Nobody thought Donald Trump should be putting in place a travel band. The only other people that we put in travel bands that would be China. You couldn't fly to Wohan from any other part of China, couldn't fly out of Wuhan to any other place in China, but international flights. They kept those open, obviously not caring about we the rest of the world. And in terms of you want to talk about somebody's economic record, well, remember the jobs didn't ever coming back. Those jobs, well, manufacturing jobs did come back prior to this virus. What do we have record low unemployment, shattering one record after another. What do we have after eight years of Joe and Obama? Thirteen million more Americans on food stamps, eight million more and poverty, lowest labor participation rate since the seventies, lowes home ownership rate since in fifty years, I mean, the worst recovery since the forties. Now, I don't think Joe Biden can figure out how to make any economy runs. So that's all going to be in play in one hundred and sixty nine days. And if anybody was incompetent, it was Biden Obama. You know, Oh, all have more flexibility after the election. Oh, let's give Mullah's an Iran chanting death to America. Let's give them one hundred and fifty billion in cash and other currency. What did he do for world? All we know is he hated Kim Jong un and General Flynn and he knew all about General Flynn's unmasking, and that would be a question you need to have answered. Unbelievable. And he's also noticed he's even sounding more socialists. You want to talk about radicalism, And he brought up the case of this terrible shooting down in Georgia, and I think back to his radicalism, and you think back of what black liberation theology, the pews of Reverend G. D America starting his political career in the homes of Airs and Dorn. The country's over Barack Obama. Nobody cares about Barack Obama and what he has to say. Barack Obama. You know, we beat back to caliphate and isis that built up under his time because he had handcuffs on our military with these ridiculous rules of engagement. Unbelievable. But let's go to line for Robin, New York. What's up, Rob? How are you? Hey? How are you? What's going on? I am the guy that started the chant fake news is not essential? In Comack with a couple of other guys the other day on Thursday. This was in Comac, right, Comack Long Island. Yes, we were on four fifty four in a Macy's parking lot and then we continued. We had another rally yesterday over in East Meadow and I made a nice four by eight sheet ap plywood that said fake news is not essential. Now, what I'm hearing from the media is that that narrative is coming from the president. But what they don't understand is what the President did by retweeting that was just echoing what the people are saying. We're not parroting the president. The President's speaking for us. He understands the frustration we're going through, especially in a state like New York. You know better than anybody else that we have to live under Cuomo's rule. And you know, listen, I've been working through this whole thing. I'm earning my full living. I'm grateful for it, but I'm out there fighting for the people that aren't. And if somebody doesn't stand up, then nothing's going to get done. Let me tell you, I never really looked at what the rules the laws are, but there were certain people that were doing some work for me in the middle of all of this, and I just put in place, you know, a mandatory where your mask keep each other safe. Everybody turned out fine because I didn't have the heart to tell them. I did not have the heart to tell them, oh, sorry, you're not coming to my house. You're not going to do the work. I didn't have the heart to do it. And everyone got a lecture. Everyone was told where the stupid mask, you know, social distance? Do it? Step by step. I don't care how much extra time you'd take. It's gonna be fine. And I was not going to send these guys home because they need to feed their families. It's just well, the problem is we were told to flatten the curve. Sean we did that. Our curve is all the way down. I mean, we have eleven hospitals in Nassau County and I think we have one hundred and nineteen patients on ventilators. I mean, come on, we have to open up this whole entire state. We need to get business going again. There's such a high demand. I mean, listen, I appreciate you letting guys work in your house, but the fear narrative that the media is driving is not allowing other people to let people work in there. Hell, listen, I have my friends that are contractors. I have my buddies that work in the restaurant business. I have a lot of friends that have been really struggling and their employees are really struggling. And like, I'll tell you what, I'm doing. Projects that I otherwise would have waited to do, I'm doing them now if it can keep some guy. And because it's just look, I just I've been there. I know what it's like. It sucks when you live in paycheck to paycheck. And you know, the only thing I want to say, the only thing I want to just give you some this is this is your friend, Sean Hannity. This is not Governor Cormo. I did notice at the rally, and I watched it a number of times, and this dope from Channel twelve, whoever he is, I'm like, he was purpose, stay away from me. You're not socially distant. I nearly died laughing. Um. I would just say, because you have older people, you get in touch with Robin, Yeah, in contact with Okay, absolutely, But you know what listen, what I do is I and by old I mean you know the classification of old now is over fifty five. So yes, you know I have guys that are working for me that are over fifty five on construction sites. But you know the problem is we need to just be adults about this. We need to be treated like adults. We know what the right things are to do. I have guys working right now, they have masks on, they're staying six feet apart. We learned what to do. We we know what's right and what that's But my point, we've learned what to do. For example, don't send COVID nineteen patients into nursing homes. You don't send them into long term care facilities. By the way, you know what Cuomo said today, you're not gonna believe this. Well, first, remember he wouldn't You couldn't get hydroxy chloroquin unless you went into a hospital. If you didn't have COVID when you went in, you likely had it when you left. Then remember he makes this this He was telling us the Blasio, telling us, oh, everything's fine, go out on the town. We're New Yorkers, We're not Gibi budos. We all we have the best hospital system in the world. Donald Trump saved New York's backside because they were not prepared. He built the hospitals. Man, the hospitals. I mean, he did everything imaginable, every bit of medical equipment. Now Cuomo then says, to the nursing homes, it's not my responsibility to have given you the ppe And I'm like, what imagine if Trump said that today? He says, we lost one hundred and thirty nine people yesterday in hospitals. Who's accountable for those one hundred and thirty nine deaths. Well, how do we get justice for those families that had one hundred and thirty nine deaths? What's justice? Who can we prosecute for those deaths? You know what he says, nobody? He goes nobody, Mother Nature, he said. Then he goes on God. People are going to die by the virus. That's the truth. Older people, vulnerable people are gonna die from the virus. This is gonna happen despite whatever you do. Well, No, because in the States where they protected the old people, Rob, they lived. Yes. And I'd love to end with one point, Sean. I tell people all the time, if we lost three million people to this virus, where we will not come anywhere close. But if we lose three million businesses that employ fifty million people, that will be far worse than any coronavirus that could ever come through here. Rob, here's my friendly advice. And I say this as a friend. This is not a Cuomo de Blasio comment. I saw the protests. I wish people would wear the masks, and I'll tell you why, don't do it for yourself. I don't want to wear a mask. You think I want to put a stupid mask on. I don't want to wear a mask. I hate that thing, but I do it because I do come into contact with older people. If I get it and then I passed it on to somebody else, they could die. So for the short period of time until we get this thing behind us, which we will, we always do, I'm willing to do that. What do you say, you know what? I agree in a store, but when you're out in the open and you know, listen, I mean no, I'm not talking about the fresh air. Maybe a stadium. Would you wear it in a stadium if that meant you can go to a Yankee game or a Mets game. Yeah, if it meant that we can bring sports back and fill every seat in that stadium, everybody wear a mask. I'm all in Sean. Yeah, and I'll be the first to say it's a paint and the ass. But for other people and to get life back to normal, I'll wear the mask. All right. Good call, Rob, Good luck to your company too, buddy. This pandemic has shaken up the status quo and laid bear a lot of our countries deep seated problems, from massive economic inequality to ongoing racial disparities. To a lack of basic healthcare for people who need it. It's woken a lot of young people up to the fact that the old ways of doing things just don't work, that it doesn't matter how much money you make if everyone around you is hungry and sick, and that our society and our democracy only work when we think not just about ourselves but about each other. It's also pulled the curtain back on another hard truth, something that we all have to eventually accept once our childhood comes to an end, and all those adults that used to think or in charge and knew what they were doing, turns out they don't have all the answers. A lot of them aren't even asking the right questions. So if the world's going to get better, it's going to be up to you. Second do what you think is right, doing what feels good, what's convenient, what's easy. That's how little kids think. Unfortunately, a lot of so called grown ups, including some with fancy titles and important jobs, still think that way, which is why things are so screwed up. I hope that instead you decide to ground yourself in values that last, like honesty, hard work, responsibility, fairness, generosity, honesty, like your doctor, keep your doctor, like your plan, keep your plan. And everybody on average is gonna save twenty five hundred dollars per family per year. You know, forty percent of the country, forty percent, nearly fully forty percent of every county in this country now has one Obama Care option. That's it, and everybody is paying on average two hundred percent more. Really, Obama brought this country together. I don't think that Obama was very good at bringing us together. But anyway, here to weigh in on that and handicap where we are. We are one hundred and sixty nine days away from election day. Where you the America? Can people become the ultimate jury. He's the architect, Carl Robe. He has been going over these numbers. You watched Obama this weekend. What do you think of Obama? Really? Look put off? I mean, he turned one could have been a magical moment for a lot of kids graduating from college into a you know, partly into a political diatribe. I mean, you know, look, he didn't need to talk about as in that segment. You just drank grown ups with fancy titles and question their motives. I mean that was clearly aimed, as he often aims at his political opposition. So one of the things he routinely does is question the motive. So the people who disagree with him, they're they're not trying to do the right thing. I mean, it couldn't be that we sometimes have a different opinion about what the right thing is to do, and when it comes to public policy, and said, there's only one right policy, and that's whatever Barack Obama thinks. And if you did think something different, it's because you're not trying to do the right thing. I mean. And then the sideswipe at the president and that all the people around the president saying, you know, the people in charge of the pandemic, you know, they don't know what they're doing. I mean, you know, let's set the president aside for a minute. I can understand why Barack Obama would never want to say something nice about him, despite the fact that very nice things have been said about the president by the Democratic governors of New Jersey and New York and California for his leadership in this moment. But think about it, it was just the way he did. It was a slur and a slander on doctor Fauci and Vice President Pants and Secretary Asar and doctor Burke's and doctor Redfield and doctor Collins and all the people who have endeavored so hard in the midst of an unusual and very challenging moment to do the right thing for America. And I love the lectures. Though we can compare how he handled the H one N one fiasco, now that that was not anywhere near the level of a pandemic that this one is. But he still himself didn't clay at a national emergency, by the way, never replenishing the national stockpile for medical equipment and respirators and everything else. So he left the president, you know, hanging on all of that also, and you want to talk about divisive the Church of ged America, need I say a lot more? Yeah? Well, and look, you touched on a really critical point. How could you go through? You're right, the pandemic that he faced, the prospect of was minuscule compared to this. But they did run down the national strategic stockpile of N ninety five masks, and he didn't replenish it. So the cupboard was bare when the government went, when the Trump government went to try and find out what was there, and they had not done it, they'd not replenished it. I mean, this is this is malfeasance, and it gives him no right. At least they ought to give him a little humility when he goes out and criticizes people. But it doesn't give him a right to sort of take the broad rushstrokes that he's been taking the last few weeks. Let me go towards a well and one other thing. Joe Biden was against the travel ban. Now, Carl Rove, Why Donald Trump ten days after the first identified coronavirus case in the US that was January twenty first, January thirty first, Well, Joe Biden called the President's travel band that he implemented that day, ten days after the first case. He called it xenophobic, hysteria and fearmongering. Now two months and three days later he kind of sounded like he supported the travel band. Then there were subsequent travel bands. Then there was the quarantine. We haven't had a quarantine, Karl Rove. And what fifty plus years he didn't how much worse could this have been to this country had those early efforts while they were impeaching the president not been put in place. Oh terrible I mean just dreadful, unbelievable, and you're right. He Joe Biden immediately attacked his xenophobic and racist We had Nance Pelosi go out and to Chinatown in San Francisco and implore people to come to Chinatown because in a response to the President's travel band. What it gets me is that Nancy Pelosi today still attacks to travel band by saying, Welle allowed forty thousand people into the United States. Yeah, he did, forty thousand American citizens and American Green cardholders who would have otherwise been stranded in China. Does Nancy Pelosi really want to look those families in the face and say, rather than accept you back into the United States as a citizen, just simply because you were traveling in China, you should have to rot in some cheap hotel over there while you were quarantined. I mean, you know, it's amazing to me what people are being driven to in this moment. The other thing on coronavirus and Carl I can tell you from first hand experience being right in the middle of all of this, there was never a moment where grocery stores didn't have any food. The shelves were full, except for toilet paper and paper towels. Every time I went, all of the workers there never shut down. They all wore their masks, and I go in every week and they're still all working, meaning they didn't get sick. And then I look at, you know, everything that the president did every step of the way, building the hospitals in New York, manning the hospitals in New York and converting them to COVID nineteen capability. What did Cuomo? What did the governor of Pennsylvania, What did Murphy and New Jersey? What did Whitmer do? Their executive orders forced people into nursing homes with COVID nineteen long term care facilities? And now the Cuomo statement today, well, people die, there's nothing we can do. They were going to die anyway. I could imagine if Trump said that, yeah, well and look, nobody's ever going to get it perfect. And that's one of the amazing things to me is is that the critics of the president, it's like, you know, everything has to be done right, you have to have been pression and you have to being seen everything and do everything, and don't give him credit for anything he does. And let's just harp on you know, this hasn't been perfect, and people have died. Well, we're facing an unpressed For a century, we have not faced anything as threatening as this. It was the so called Spanish Flu, the Great Influence of nineteen eighteen nineteen nineteen. That was the last time the country dealt with this, and the country was far less urban. But back then a lot more people lived out in rural America. We weren't as concentrated. I mean, three percent of the land mass of the lower forty eight contains eighty percent of the nation's population. That's how big our cities are and how dangerous it convenient a time of pandemic to live and work in those cities. And yet we're coming through, and we're coming through, and we ought to be taking pride. And you you mentioned that the people who manned the cash registers at our grocery stores, And think about the delivery people who had to bring those those those as to market. Think about all the manufacturers and the agriculture and the processors and the bakers and makers and doers who who have kept us fed in the midst of all this. And think about all the people who are struggling to keep their small businesses together and against the moment when they when they can return to business. I've got friends here in Austin, and some of them whom I've known for a long long time who've done extraordinary things to try and keep their businesses productive and ready to go when the moment comes. And in New York, they were sending these people to what was ultimately a death sentence for others when they went there, all right, and it was the largest and fastest and medical mobilization in the history of mankind. Let's go. We're one hundred and sixty nine days out. I still, to this day, you can't convince me that Donald Trump pulls like any conventional politician. I don't think he pulls well looking at the numbers. Joe Biden, living in his basement, have a very difficult time of uttering three sentences, putting them together, or even getting his podcast online. Where do you see the election as of today? Well, look, I think it's going to be. Everything points to it's a tight, close election. I mean, the president is a disruptor. He's disrupted politics as usual, and people had strong opinions about him in twenty sixteen, and those opinions haven't abated on one side or the other. Now Biden has secured the nomination the Democratic Party, we're now seeing and hearing a little bit more of them. He had a big positive moment when he became the nominee of the party. So you know, look, I wouldn't expect him to be anywhere other than he is. But this is going to be a very tight election. Neither man contented for, granted, and it's going to be fought out over a relatively small number of states, the most critical of which, of course, or Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan. But they're also you know, there are other Democrats are going to be coming for Arizona. Think about this, If they take Pennsylvania in Michigan and the second district of Maine or the second district the third district of of of Nebraska and everything that Hillary Clinton won, Joe Biden's president. So or if he takes Arizona and Michigan and Pennsylvania, he's got uh, you know, he's got room to spare. Or he takes Florida and anything else like North Carolina or Arizona or Wisconsin or Michigan or Pennsylvania. So the president's got to be fighting hard on the on the on the on, the battle in the battleground states. And actually the CNN poll think about this. The CNN poll showed in the fifteen battleground states, seven of them won by the president, eight one by Hillary Clinton. Showed the president by four points. Do you know what he won those states by in two thousand and sixteen, Sean, what because he lost he lost eight of them, won seven of them and won them. The overall vote in those in those states twenty five million, almost twenty six million to couple, one hundred thousand votes less, but he wanted by one point three one three percent, And he's ahead in those states by four percent according to a CNN poll, which you suspect might not be exactly. Oh no, no, John, Why are you so convinced that there's no way they try to replace Biden? Because look, if he had a fastball, it's gone. If he had a curveball, it's gone. If he had a change up, slow pitch, it's gone. He seems really out of it, confused, stammering, stuttering, stepping in it every second of the day. Well, I think for a couple of reasons. One, his wife is never going to go in and say to him, honey, hang it up. He first ran for office in nineteen seventy two, got elected to the US Senate. He first declared for president in nineteen eighty seven. Think about that. Thirty some five years ago he was he'd be ranked started running for president. James Carterville famously said that running for president is like sex. You never want to do it just once. And he's obviously under that. You know, so she's not going to walk in and tell him. Second of all, if he's not going to break the promise with his son. If you listen to him talk when he gets really emotional and it sounds truly authentic, and look, I have a moment happened. I'm not going to suggest it didn't. But the moment that that that that he talks about, what was real conviction is a moment the deathbed of his son Bow, and his son Bow was saying to him, Dad, you got to promise me you're gonna run. And as a result, he's not going to take himself out. But the most important reason is I'm sorry, I gotta run. Who is he pick as his VP? Then we gotta roll? Darned if I know. But The most important reason he doesn't run is they continues to run the established him of the Democratic Party. He knows if he is replaced him, they don't want Bernie. For Bernie. They're going for Bernie and they don't want that. Yeah, that's right, all right, Karl Rove the Architect, thank you eight hundred and ninety four one. Sean, you want to a part of the program. Kevin Harvin is about to become the fourteenth driver in NASCAR Cup history to reach fifty career victories, breaking a tie with Tony Stewart for fourteenth. Harving wins NASCAR's return to action at Darlington this weekend. Finally we got some sports up and running, and NASCAR opening up this weekend, fans eager to see the rollout the next steps. Now, there was this golf tournament this weekend and the President called into NBC Sports to talk about how important sports are to this country. And the call took place during what was the Tailor Made Driving Relief Event in Florida, the first televised golf event about two months. He said, we need to get sports back. We miss sports. We need sports in terms of the psyche, the psyche of our country. We want to get back to normal. We have big crowds. They're practically standing on top of each other, not where they're worried anyway. Jim Gray is with us. He's a good friend of mine. Number one, number two. He is the host of Westwood Ones Monday night football pregame. Also is involved in the boxing world for many, many years. Jim, I've been talking a lot of I have a plan to open Yankee Stadium. Me and Randy Levine have worked it out. You have the turnstile temperature checks. Everybody gets a Yankee mask if they don't have a mask. If you want to start out every other seat, I guess you can. But hopefully the goal would be to open up the stadium. I have the inside scoop and what's going on with Major League Baseball and their plans to open up. I think it can be done safely, and I think that we're just going to have to protect the vulnerable by wearing the masks, and it's only an interim period of time. Sean, it's always great to talk to you. I hope you're doing well. How about you. I'm doing great, We're doing well. We're just out here in California. And hoping things will get back opened up and hope that everybody's safe and well. Yesterday on NBC that golf event was great with Rory McElroy and Dustin Johnson. And you know who put that on, Jimmy Dunn, who did so much after nine to eleven. He's the president of Seminole. That was the first time Jimmy was ever on television. Tell I'm gonna take a I'm gonna diverge here, tell everybody about Jimmy Dunn. And I'm not surprised it was him. Jimmy Dunn was a hero of nine to eleven. What do you hear this quick story? Well, of course he suffered tragedy. His company was in the building, one of the buildings that came down, and we're talking about the World Trade Center nine to eleven, correct, and so many people in his company perished. And he is taking care of all those families. He's educated the kids, he's made sure they're all financially squared away, taking care of all of their health concerns. This is a guy who has had thousands, thousands of acts of kindness to help all of these victims from nine to eleven, and he's now the president of Seminole Golf Club. He's a huge golfer, and that day on nine to eleven, just by God's luck, by a quirk of fate, he went golfing that morning, was coming to work in the afternoon, so he wasn't in the building. But this is just a guy who's dedicated his life to helping others. And yesterday was another example. Five point five million dollars shot he raised by giving up that golf course with Rory McElroy and those guys, and every single family that lost their loved one that day on nine to eleven. He took care of every family, took care of all their healthcare, took care of all their school needs, college tuition, everything, even the unburned children, people who weren't even in the world yet of some of those victims. He's just a wonderful guy. He is a true American hero, and he continues to give. He is the example of the way to go about your life and helping others. Totally agree. Great guy, Great man. Um. All right, So now NASCAR starts, I have I've gotten a little wind of what is actually in MLB's plans to open up Major League baseball. It's going to be a shortened season. They maybe in the beginning they start with no crowds. But one thing we learned in New York, Jim, is that you know, every week when I'd go to my drug store or go to my grocery store, everybody wore masks. And I saw them every week. And I was there yesterday and I asked the guy, did anyone get sick? No, nobody got it. And they were around a lot of people because the shelves were full all over New York and Long Island the whole time. They fed us. Well, we need sports, Sean, and we need sports to come back, but we have to do it safely. And all of these guys who were trying to do this. Here's as we look forward. The negotiation with the players union is going to be a very difficult negotiation on how they can come to financial terms. Now. I know nobody wants to hear this. They don't want to hear millionaires fighting with billionaires. The problem is for the owners of these clubs to open up baseball under the circumstance right now with pro rata share of paying players, they're going to lose. The best case scenario for an owner would be to lose seventy million. Other teams will lose one hundred and fifty million dollars. So that's not a great equation to open your doors, to have no fans and to lose that kind of money. So the players Union in this instance, they're a very strong union. They're a great union. They've done incredible work, and Marvin Miller is now going to go into the Baseball Hall of Fame after all of these years for what he did all those years ago. But it really shouldn't be a negotiation like this. It should be where everybody can come out well. Because if the owners have to suffer this type of financial loss, it going to be an equation where they're not going to want to open their doors. So hopefully Tony Clark and those who run the union will see to it that this is not your usual circumstance and so things are going to have to make. They're gonna have to make accommodations otherwise we're not going to have baseball. But I think the NBA is inching closer to coming back. I think we're going to see a playoffs there. I think they're going to take the teams in either sequest to them in Orlando or Las Vegas, or have a Western facility and an East Coast facility. Probably Disney World and the NBA, I believe, is going to figure out a formula with no fans will they'll be able to come back, and that'll be great, I think. But there's got to be away in a point. You know. One of the things we've noticed in New York, for example, the people that sheltered in place, putting aside the whole nursing home debacle New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan. It was just a debacle, these executive orders forcing nursing homes and long term care facilities to take in these COVID patients. I mean it's spread like wildfire all throughout every facility. That's where you know. Fully in New York a third of the death came from. So there's got to be a way to do it and do it safely. I like these thermo temperature checks, turnstiles. I like the idea everyone has to wear a mask to start. We expect at some point, probably late fall, there's a good shot this is behind us for a lot of different reasons. One way or the other. We're hoping, but in the meantime we get to live life. It's the lifeblood of our psyche. I think the President is right. It seems to me that they can do it and do it safely if the fans cooperate. I'm sure nobody wants to wear a mask. I don't want to wear a mask, but I'd wear it just to go to the game. Well, I think you're going to have different circumstances and different locales. Some places, the public and things are open up, and those governors have decided that it's okay and and they're going to do it. But I think in other places. I live in California and out here it's much different where they have decided that they're not going to let crowds assemble, and so this would impact very definitely. So if there's a willingness, say for in Milwaukee, for the fans to be able to come, and then there's an unwillingness, say, for example, in Oakland or Los Angeles, where they can't come, then you have to somehow get this equation equal on the financial terms, because if you can have fans in some places but not fans in other places, then those teams are at a disadvantage financially, yet they're paying the players. And national television makes up a lot of these financial circumstances. Local television, the regional cables make up the difference as well. But we're going to have to have an equitable circumstance as to whether or not fans can come. Now, if fans can come in Colorado but they can't come in you know, certain other places, it's just going to be really, really difficult because there's nothing that you form. There's there's no uniform policy here here Sean Well, so I'm imagining if some cities want to keep their stadiums closed, that's going to be their choice. And I mean, I can't imagine. I think the players understand that we're already at a shortened season. We're at what an eighty two game season now they're talking about in baseball. They understand until they have to give back money and then they don't understand as well. Okay, well, so they expect to get paid for the full They expect to get paid for the full year when they only play half the games. No, they want to be paid on a pro raded basis. Okay, Baseball owners have now offered fifty fifty, So whatever we bring in, we split fifty fifty, which is the same that the NFL players basically get, which is the same basically what the NBA players get. The problem with that is is it really doesn't even work for ownership. Ownership really needs it to be about forty percent thirty five to forty percent, otherwise they're still going to hemorrhage hundreds of millions of dollars. So, you know, President Roosevelt said, we need baseball. We're going to ge continue. President Bush when he threw out the first pitch after nine to eleven at Yankee Stadium one of the great moments ever. He was a hell of a pitch, by the way, Jim, it was a great right down to strike zone. We did a great documentary with President Bush at thirty for thirty on ESPN, and boy was at a tremendous moment. But he he felt like Roosevelt felt, and that was his guideline. He said, you know, we're gonna grieve, and we're gonna always have in our hearts and mourn for those who were lost on nine to eleven, but we've got to have some sense of normalcy. We have to have some sense of being able to do the things that we want to do, and we can do that through baseball. That's sort of like I remember when it's when Rudy what happened here now too, But they've got to figure out the finances because if they don't, you can't have people losing hundreds of millions of dollars. And then you know, it's just it just doesn't work like that. But to me, the answer a lot if we learned anything, if we protect the elderly population like they did in Texas and in Florida and in Joy, and they didn't do in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan. And then if you look at well, how did New York grocery stores stay open because everybody wore a mask? There wasn't There was not a major outbreak, There was not a hot spot at grocery stores where these guys worked every day and kept the shelves full. So I think from those two lessons, if we asked older people, hey, just hang out this year, watch it on TV. Probably not a good time to come. And if everybody else, for the sake of others, would wear the mask when they're in the stadium. I think that's gonna be fairly safe. Do you not think so? You know, I think that it would be. But I think you also have a psychological problem here, Sean. In the past two or three months, we have now unwound one hundred and fifty to two hundred years of communal living, of how society operates, of being wanting to hug each other, being able to go to a game and high five each other. We've now told everybody to socially distanced because we had this disease and nobody wants to disease, and the mitigation factors were necessary and important, but that doesn't just leave people's minds. I don't see a whole lot of people wanting to shake hands, wanting to hug, wanting to go and be in places where there's a crowd now, be it an airline, be it a bus, be it a subway, be it a game, a theater, or whatever it is. So you now have to once again psychologically condition the public when it's safe to go back and do these things. And when that timetable is I don't know, because as doctor Fauci and others in the medical community have said, you know, the virus is on its own timetable. So whatever that timetable is, we are going to have to turn the public around and turn everybody's thought process around into thinking that it's okay to be with one another once again. Quick break more with Jim Gray on the other side sports Fox Sports analysts Westwood Ones Monday in our football pregame. All right, as we continue with our friend, sportscaster Jim Gray is with us, so as we now go forward with us, I'll be honest, I think it's I think the American people, Jim, they've made the determination. Did you see New York this weekend? All these people on the beach, more people in the city than we've seen in six weeks, and they're all out there, and many of them not wearing the mask. There's a lot of resistance to the masks. Well here in California, at least in Los Angeles, it's mandatory that you wear the mask, and I think that's probably important so that it doesn't spread. But the beaches were full. Uh this weekend. You know, you talk about sports. The NASCAR race that was on Fox that got six point three two million viewers, that was up like forty thirty eight to forty percent. The golf with those golfers that we talked about with Rory McElroy and Dustin Johnson and Ricky Fowler and Wolf put on by Jimmy Dunn so brilliantly at Seminole, they had a good rating. People are starving to see these sports. So I think, you know, people are ready to get out from underneath all of this uh self isolation, and I think they just have to go about it safely and car fully. Yeah, you know, there's there's a there's a very fine line here, and I'm sure that nobody wants to step over that line and put themselves at risk. But by the things and the reason I'm wearing masks, got yeah, exactly, at some point you Americans are demanding it, all right, Jim Gray, great to talk to you, my friend. Thank you, And yeah, it is an important critical component in America's psyche to watch sports, to be a part of sports, to follow the seasons. I think you can do it safely. Now it's a matter of whether or not they can work out this deal with the MLB. We'll continue because you know, I've commented since I have been attorney General, and even during my confirmation hearings that over the past few decades there have been increasing attempts to use the criminal justice system as a political weapon. The legal tactic has been to gin up allegations of criminality by one's political opponents based on the flimsiest of legal theories. This is not a good development. This is not good for our political life, and it's not good for the criminal justice system. And as long as I'm Attorney General, the criminal justice system will not be used for partisan political lands. I want this good follow question. I think it's as during the ceremony about the Russia probe right now, why did you decide to unmask so many individuals in twenty sixteen? Was it? Wouldn't you wanted you to clear the record? What? Why is it? Police? Excuse me, I'm trying to tuck all right, dudes, round up and information overload hour eight hundred and nine four one sewn. You want to be a part of the program that was first The Attorney General, Bill Barr, speaking at a press conference earlier today, saying the review by US Attorney from Connecticut John Durham would get to the bottom of the Russia probe describing it as abhorrent, a grave injustice warned against the politicizing of or the criminalizing of political differences. Think of what he's saying. I do not expect Durham's work will lead to a criminal investigation. But it's a criminal investigation, which he had reiterated before. Not only we have Clapper and Brannan and Joe Biden. Why would a and we've raised this question a lot in the last three and a half years, why would a UN ambassador be unmasking now around three hundred people, and more specifically, she just denied there that she's doing it. And she claims she'd never tried to unmask General Flynn. But we have seven examples that came out last week of her doing the unmasking. So somebody's lying. Who is it. Sean Davis is the co founder of the Federalists and by the way, has written a great column about this. John How are you welcome back, sir? I'm well, thank you for having me, sir. All right. By the way, other updates Senator Johnson and Grassley. They now they've gone forward releasing the names of the Obama officials. The judge in the Flynn case. We have that whole mess continuing. Joe Biden the day before it's revealed he asked for an unmasking, eight days before he left office. Is interesting. That's of General Flynn Dennis McDonagh on the infamous day of January fifth chief of staff of Obama. Why did he ask? Anyway, we're learning a lot and from what we're hearing from Trey Gaudy, Devin Newnest, there's a lot more to come, including Trump family members. Right. So, I think the unmasking scandal is really just getting rolling. And as we've learned new facts about who the Obama administration unmasks, we've gotten some curious responses from former Obama officials, and I know a lot of them when they say this start expecting it to be a justification or a rationalization. But it sounds to me more like a confession. When you have people like Samantha Power and James Clapper and Ben Road say oh yeah, yeah, we were unmasking all the time. This was totally routine. It actually wasn't routine until the Obama administration came in and weaponized the intelligence and law enforce community to go after their political enemies. We saw it with the IRS investigation. We saw what they did to spy on Congress when it was doing oversight on the Iran deal, and then again on the Flynn and Crossfire hurricane thing. So when they say this was routine and unmasking was a normal thing, that alone is a massive confession, of a huge bombshell about how they were using our spy services to go after their political enemies. The arrogance so far of all these people. Now, my sources are telling me that every one of these people whose names we have mentioned a lot in the last three and a half years, apparently of all lawyered up and all have you know, powerful top law firm attorneys behind them, waiting for something. I've got to imagine Durham is pretty serious at this point, because now he's added to his staff number one, number two. He's taken a lot of trips abroad, I believe, for the purpose of seeing what other involvement they may have had with spying, and what other deals might have been happening, whether outsourcing of spying occurred as well to circumvent American law. But clearly there's going to be consequences. According a bar every little crummy leaves me points in that direction. Well, I think there have to be consequences because if people aren't held to account for this illegal spy campaign and this what was obviously a cop operation, it's going to keep happening again and again. And I don't think Attorney General bar could have picked a better person to get to the bottom of it than John Durham. He made a name for himself as a US attorney by not just going after the mob, but going after the FBI. John Durham who figured out that the FBI, that some corrupt FBI agents had framed innocent men for mob murders. And the reason they did it is they wanted to protect their informers in the mob, you know, actual murderous monsters the FBI was trying to protect, and in order to do that, it lied to the court at lied in documents in order to have men convicted who did nothing wrong. Several of them ended up on death row. And it was John Durham who got to the bottom of this, to the bottom of a corrupt FBI. So if anyone can figure this out and hold people accountable at him there was almost a threefold, well more than a threefold increase in unmasking requests. Now, looking back at what we've discovered, and we know a lot more. We know that they used a dirty, unverifiable Russian disinformation dossier that Hillary paid for, that they were warned not to use to take away the civil liberties and constitutional rights a carter Page, but also to spy on the Trump campaign transition team and deep into his presidency. The entire scope memo came out, and the second and third FISA warrants came out after the subsource of Christopher Steele debunked everything Steele had said. So at that point, how did they ever justify that going forward? Really nothing they did after the election was justified. You might be able to have this thing have a thin read on which this whole thing could stand in early twenty sixteen, But by twenty seventeen, the FBI knew the dossier was garbage, They knew that they had no dirt on carter Page. In the fist A court when it was told of all these facts, actually said, you know what, at least two of those spy FISA warrants against carter Page were illegal. So if you want to be very generous and say, okay, everything they did in twenty sixteen was fine, you have to simultaneously say everything they did after Trump won was completely illegal and completely dirty. And what I want to know isn't just how often and what was used to unmask Michael Flynn. I want to know how many lawmakers, potentially congressional Republicans, maybe even irandual opponent, were unmasked by the Obama administration. Now, well, hearing it might have been Trump family members. We're also hearing that it might be people in the media that were digging deep into this. Those rumors, as you know, have been circulating now for two and a half years. You're right, yes, so they were they spying on Trump family members, Were they spiring on members of Congress? Were they spying on and unmasking members of the media. We know the Obama administration spied on James Rosen, spied on his family for the crime of doing reporting. But this is the more we learn, the bigger this scandal gets in scope. It wasn't just about twenty sixteen, It wasn't just about Trump. Any and every political enemy of the Obama administration appears to have been targeted, not just droughing the administration, but even afterwards and If you thought Watergate was a big scan two bit breaking of the party headquarters, this is orders of magnitude, bigger and more serious and more damaging to our republic than Watergate ever. Was so over at John Solomon's site justanews dot com. I think it's a really good piece by Lee Smith summarizing possible crime is committed by Robert Mueller's group of the merry band of witch hunters, and one would be disobeying the court order to turnover exculpatory evidence against General Flynn. That order was given in twenty eighteen by Emmett Sullivan, who I can't figure out now for the life of me. Not Another one is misrepresentation of the Papadopolis cooperation, because well, we now know that you know that hindered the rust. You know, this whole thing. Muller prosecutors claimed Trump volunteer Papadopolis hindered their investigation. But when you look at declassified FBI interviews, they revealed that many of Mueller's team offered exculpatory information that they withheld the silence about the Trump Tower meeting exculpatory evidence. They're holding that back. I mean, this list goes on and on of all the instances in which they just don't follow normal processes or the law, or take quote advantage of the chaos deny people the Miranda rights, and they've set every one of these people up. They did. It's interesting when you compare that scope memo to the list of people who are originally targeted in twenty sixteen. The original targets were Carter Page, Paul Manaford, George Popadopolis, and Michael Flynn. They ended up stringing up three of them on stuff that really had nothing to do with the campaign, nothing to do with Russian collusion. And what I find most remarkable is what happened to Carter Page. For a year, they said he was an illegal agent of the foreign government involved in crimes. They couldn't find anything on that guy. So the fact that you come back after all this, they couldn't find anything on anyone, and suddenly Rosenstein tells Mueller to go after the exact same four people and at the same time to avoid any scrutinous fusion GPS or Christopher Steele, who is himself working for a sanctioned Russian oligarch at the time he did the dossier. It shows that the Mueller probe, from to be a very beginning, was a scam, and it wasn't there to get the truth. It was there to go after Trump and cover up all the dirty deeds that the Obama administration in the comby FBI had been doing for years. Nobody seems to have picked up Sean Davis on the fact Obama officials like James Klapper, for example, set on CNN fake news President Trump's campaign was aiding and abetting Russia. Now that we have these newly declassified documents and almost he and every other person that went before the House Intel Committee, they're all saying we saw no evidence at all of Trump Russia collusion. So I guess what he knew. He was under oath he had to tell the truth, but pr purposes he'd lie, just like Adam Schiff was hearing from Trump. Every Obama official also saying that we have no evidence, but going out to the camera saying we have all those evidence. None of it was true. Right, And now we know why Adam Schiff had refused to release all those transcripts, even though they've been declassified for more than a year. He didn't want the truth to get out. He would go on CNN and say I have smoking gun evidence of collusion, but behind closed doors, all of his star witnesses were saying there was none in My favorite example is Evelyn Farcas, the former Obama defense official who went on MSNBC and said we know this and we know that about the Trump campaign's contacts with Russia and their collusion. And then when she was nailed down in the secret testimony, they said you didn't actually know anything about anything, did you, And she said, no, I didn't, I didn't know anything. There was no collusion. And those transcripts, what's fascinating about them is what's not in them, which is any admission from any of these officials that they ever saw any evidence of collusion. Right, John Davis, Federalist, thank you so much for being with us, great column today, great writing. As always, we always appreciate you being with us. Right as we continue, quick call here as we say hi to John Is in North Carolina. John, how are you glad you called? Sir? Thank you very much for thanking my call. I'm very upset with this rogue, Judge Sullivan. I do not understand why there is not an outcry from every quarter on both sides of the aisle. Here we have a judge who defies the fact that there are three branches of government, and he's trying to be two of them at the same time, both of prosecution, part of the executive branch, and also being a judge. And I'd like to know what is being done to try to stop him, whether that is to impeach him, or if that's too slow. Can there be some kind of injunction put in place to block the second judge that he wants to bring in, which would again be bringing in another sector. Is already bringing in somebody that had a predetermined conclusion because he wrote about it in the Washington Post, so we already know where the guy is going to come down. It is unprecedented. There is a maneuver that the dj can use where they can go directly to the second district in DC. But you're not exactly looking yet. The most fair balanced judges in many ways, they're the kind of equivalent of the Ninth Circuit. But as it relates to everything else you're saying, you know, you gotta understand where why isn't their outrage from the left. They didn't care about Hillary's dossier. They didn't care about Joe's quid pro quo. They don't believe when it comes to an allegation against Joe Biden, they just they take on breath taking hypocrisy. All right, quick break, when we come back. Why do the Democrats want two things? They want nanny COVID spending bill, illegal immigrants being taken care of, and they want to change the voting laws in the country. Why is that? We will explain next. Well, we put a big effort in order to promote democracy, which is what we are all about here, and remove obstacles to participation in our democracy. Democrats insisted on resources in this last bill that the President's on last week. We had four hundred million dollars to promote voting by mail direct all of that, however, it was not nearly enough. We need at least five times that much in order to really meet the needs to protect the integrity of our election critical infrastructure as well as to promote voting by mail. It is absolutely essential at this time. So in this next bill we hope to get more resources too by mail and if you're doing that, you have to have funds for the postal service as well, which he has objected to. All right, twenty five till the top of the hour, there is the ever so eloquent Nancy Pelosi, somewhat forgetful like Joe herself. Why is it every bill they're willing to hold up spending from the very beginning for workers, small businesses, those that are in need through no fault of their own, during a national emergency pandemic. Of course, they were busy impeaching the president and preparing to do the little tear of the president's speech before that, any of them were paying any attention to COVID nineteen. And we know that the President was putting in a travel band, quarantine, other travel bands, etc. But what is it about every bill Democrats now proposed. They want immigration reform, they want amnesty, they want open borders. They want anybody to be able to vote, whether you have an ID, you don't have an ID. They're always adding new Green Deal provisions. They're adding, you know, by the way, and they'll say, to rebuild America. Yeah, they want basically socialism all across the country. One of the things they're pushing for the hardest has to do with voting by mail. They will tell you now this is out of an abundance of caution and safety. And by the way, they want to strip all voter ID laws. They want to remove witness requirements and signor verification. And what should concern everybody here, you know, if there are we know we have instances where people vote by mail and the easiest and best and most secure way to get somebody's identity, make sure that this person has a legal right to vote, that they are registered, that they are legal citizens, etc. We should not take away people's decisions to go forward with us. A lot of this effort is being bankrolled by big Democrats because they see a political advantage in this. You know, Oh, let's mail it to every home in America. Let's use the census. That's how far they would like to go with all of the US. Anyway, Catherine Angelebreck is back with us. She is the founder of True the Vote And anyway, you you pointed out a lot about this mail by voting nonsense. Tell us where we are at this time, and do you think they're going to ram this through? Well, I mean, Sean, you nailed it. This is not about vote by mail or the convenience and the safety and the security of vote by mail. That is, that is absolutely what the left wants you to think. But in fact, this is a very well crafted and long planned strategy. I would say that it's every every push towards towards mail and ballots are coming with the attendant clauses of removing signature verification and knocking down voter ID and opening up limitless ballot harvesting. This is an engineered effort to inject chaos being caused by the same groups that pre pandemic. We're trying to prevent states from cleaning their voter rolls, prevent states from enacting voter ID, and now they can use all of that to their best advantage because they know that the voter rolls are messed up, they know that they are unreliable pushing out all of that paper into active and inactive voters mailboxes. No, you have no clue who's really getting the ballot, and then the tsunami of paperwork coming back in counties can't handle it. This is absolute engineered chaos with the outcome of an intended litigation strategy that will play out for months and months and months after November at true the vote. You've also gone forward with a preliminary injunction that you've filed in Nevada, and in Virginia you also filed a preliminary injunction. What's going on in those two states in particular, Well, in those states, we've taken the bureaucrats to task. In Virginia, the governor has not only struck down voter ID but has declared everyone in the state to be disabled. And that's how he's choosing to try to get around the the universal mail in push. Um. In Nevada, the Secretary of State, who's a Republican, I might add um, was pushing for the same thing, universal mail in. But also now we're seeing limitless vote harvesting, and in Clark County they want to actually put the vote harvesters on the on the payroll. They want to help the vote harvesters disenfranchise the most vulnerable populations. It's it's it's outrageous and um, you know, and it's you know, I'll tell another thing that you don't hear a lot about. It's it's largely being done at the hands of Hillary Clinton's lawyer, Mark Elias. He's the mastermind behind all of this. And it's a it's it's stunning and its breadth and depth and scope and funding. They were talking about the when the first COVID nineteen bill came in, They were actually talking about allowing individuals to pick up as many people of people's ballot themselves, as long as the envelope was sealed. That would be good enough, That would be sufficient enough. Well, there's no verification whatsoever if you do it that way. And why do I not trust the person that is bringing all these extra ballots out of the goodness of their heart. I'm sure to either a post office or a voting place. Now that's exactly right. Why would we? How could we? There is no there are insufficient security safeguards around any of this. The most secure way to cast your vote is in person at the polling place. And so what we're finding back against are the states that are denying their voters those opportunities, which will necessarily result in a dilution of legitimate votes due to the expansion of fraudulent votes, of duplicate votes, of errant votes. This is a This is an incredibly troubling situation. It is a tsunami that is headed for us in November that we have got to get our arms around now. True the vote is a dot com or dot org.

Thanks so much, appreciate it. Eight hundred and nine four one sewn you want to be a part of the program, All right, Seawan and Texas? Sean, how are you glad you called? Sir? Welcome on board, Sean man. What's going on? How you doing? I'm good? How are you holding up? I'm doing well. Hope you had a good weekend. I'm looking forward to your book. I gotta tell you first time caller, I miss Holmes And yeah, Katie, your call screener is awesome. She needs uh we got Why is everyone now? Did she tell you to say that because she just got two bonuses? Why? Why is this? I suspect whatever? Oh they need a raise? Are you guys colluding sort of like against Trump with the Russians? No, Actually, Linda told me to say that Linda did tell you to say that, right, Yeah, of course, thanks Linda, appreciate you, welcome and say, all right, what else is on your mind? Look, it's uh what we're talking about with Komy, Struck, Page, Clapper, Brandon. I just totally feel I mean, I was in military for ten years in the in three nothing's going to happen. I mean, there's not gonna be any part. I'm not so short. Look, even Bars comments, I know, even bars Comments told today where he's confirming what we already know that there is a criminal investigation into all of this, and that is a bit that is big news at this time. He says, it is not focused on Obama. Obama the only thing we really know about Obama a couple of things. When we know that Page and Struck were texting that the White House wanted to be informed every step of the way, Okay, why then we know Sally Yates the January fifth Oval Office meeting with Komey and Yates and Clapper and Brennan, and I believe who was it Sally Yates. I believe Susan Rice. I'm not sure about her. They were all in the Oval Office at the end of that meeting. Sally Yates testified that Obama Barack asked them to stay stay back, and Barack that's when he told her that he knew everything about the unmasking of General Flynn and what had happened in the phone call. So to me, you know, now it's a question if he's got to answer, what did you know? When did you know it? And what was your involvement? And why did Joe Biden unmasked General Flynn eight days before you left? Why did you know? Why did Dennis McDonough the day of that meeting unmasked he's the chief of staff for Obama. Why did he do the unmasking that specific day? And why? Fifteen days later, to Susan Rice write an email to self, Obama said to do everything by the book. She was memorializing that for a reason. Probably my guess is they weren't doing everything by the book. Does that help you? Yeah? And I'm with you. But I also read today with Attorney General Barr said, he said, even though something maybe absolutely politically mischievous and everything like that doesn't make him illegal. Man, I'd love to see him, all, you know, go to jail. But listen, nobody more than me. I've devoted three plus years of my life, and especially when you compare the treatment of Papadoppola, Stone, Manafort, General Flynn. Yeah, they should all be held accountable. All right, Sean, thank you, appreciate it. Karen and Michigan, what's up, Karen? How are you? And boy? I thought we had a a dumb bunch of politicians in New York. Governor Whitmer's right up there with them. Oh yeah, I call her the warden. She's fantastic. Don't cut your lawn in Michigan. You're gonna get arrested. Oh yeah, we're in lawncare. So that really was a pain in the neck. But she's gone too far now. She actually is putting sick COVID patients into nursing homes. My mom happens to be in a nursing home five minutes from here. They have eighteen people that have COVID, three have died, and there's only one hundred and five people in there. I grilled the woman as an administrator for probably twenty minutes before I actually got numbers. She was horribly difficult to get any information out. She wouldn't tell me if they were patients or if they were from outside. But this isn't the only nursing home. It's happening all over Michigan. Listen, if you want to know why, the states every state eight, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan. I mean, if you want to look at what the highest number of cases and the death rate was, it is astronomical in all of these states that forced long term care facilities nursing homes to take on COVID nineteen patients. Versus let's see Texas and Florida. You know, for example, you got twenty two million people living down in Florida, twenty nine to five million in Texas, nineteen five million in New York. Okay, no state income tax in Texas. Of Florida, California thirteen percent, New York eight percent, which is really actually nine point nine. You look at the debt. The only two states that have balanced budgets are New York and Florida. You look at the COVID nineteen cases, it is dramatically higher in these states versus say, you know, if you look at California, New York and and especially New Jersey, Michigan and other places of Pennsylvania, whenever they put COVID nineteen patients into nursing homes, they have the by far dramatically higher death rates. They and New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey. They don't have an excuse because they had all these empty beds at the JABT Center that was built by the President, manned by the president, converted to COVID nineteen capability by the president, and they didn't use thousands of them. It's it's it is. If Jnald Trump did this, I promise you, it would be everywhere. It would be the biggest scandal ever in the history of this country. You know Cuomo now saying nursing home residents who died as a result of coronavirus, they were gonna die anyway, am I huh? Unbelievable, But yeah, she she did one of the worst jobs and is doing one of the worst jobs. Is that still happening, by the way there? Yeah, And here's what scares me too. And one day last week before noon and my airy neck of the woods, a person that lives in a trailer park, my husband worked for most for that, he killed himself friends front porch because his family left him because he doesn't have a job now, I mean, and that was the Those are the consequences. They were laughing at when the President said it, but they're real. That's going to wrap things up for today. Oh what a tweet put out by Governor Greg Abbott of Texas comparing his state in Florida to New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania. Pretty insightful. Pete hegset they Ruben tonight. Also UFC's Dana white Man. He went on an epic rant. He'll join us Judge Janine, Jim Jordan, Mike Huckabee, Matt Gates, nine Eastern Tonight, Hannity. We hope you'll set your DVR. We'll see you tonight. Back here tomorrow. Thanks for being with us. M
