High news round up information overload our eight hundred and nine four when Sean, you want to be a part of the program. Look, I keep getting back to what's going on with Russia, Iran, China. You know, geopolitical ambitions on full display, weakness shown here by an American president. They see what we see. It's sad. And they also witnessed Joe Biden abandoned one hundred and sixteen days ago Americans behind enemy lines in Afghanistan. They know Joe's not going to do anything and there's not going to be any real consequences. You know, well, we're gonna remove all diplomatic We're gonna have a diplomatic boycott of the Olympics. You know what, do you think the Chinese care? They don't care. And I'm really hesitant to support a boycott, although it just it is irritating as hell that nobody seems to care about the forced labor policies and the oppression of minorities in China and forced labor camps in China. Nobody, nobody pays attention to it, and if you bring it up, nobody even understands that it's happening anyway. Joe Biden on China's abuses, says, well, the countries have different norms, Is that really it, Joe or and then praising China in a montage, the same country that put the world through two years now of hell that's still ongoing. The central principle of Sijing Ping is that there must be a united tightly controlled China, and he uses his rationale for the things he does based on that. I point out to him, no American president can be sustained as a president if he doesn't reflect the values of the United States, and so the idea, I'm not going to speak out against what he's doing in Hong Kong, what he's doing with the wiggers in western mountains of China and Taiwan, trying to end the One China policy by making it forceful, I said, And by the he said, he gets it culturally, there are different norms in each country, and they their leaders are expected to follow. China is going to eat our lunch. Come on, man, they can't even figure out how to deal with the fact that they have this great division between the China Sea and the mountains in the east, I mean in the west. They can't figure out how they're going to deal with the corruption that exists within the system. I mean, you know, they're not bad folks. Folks, but guess what they're not. They're not our competition for US. A more prosperous China will mean more demand for American made goods and services and more jobs back home in the United States of America. So our desire for your prosperity is not born out of some nobility. It is in our self interest that China continue to prosper. When I've spent a lot of time with President she even he acknowledges that the growth and progress in China has been a direct relationship of the stability that has been encouraged by a US presidents one point five billion dollars deal with the Bank of China. I'm sure Deutsche Bank would have done a far worse job than zero experienced Hunter or that Goldman Sacks or any of the big you know, banking firms would have done a worse job than Hunter and one hundred thousand dollars shopping spree from a Chinese national you know. Okay, So they have different norms are forced labor, oppression of minorities, cracking down on liberty, and freedom in Hong Kong, flying fighter jets over Taiwan airspace and talking about taking over Taiwan, and hypersonic missiles that can fire off nuclear weapons, a show of force, constant, never ending chatter, saber rattling about the United States of America and if they dare stop the territorial ambitions of China, that we will be destroyed by China. And okay, so what's the answer? Now, this becomes an interesting question. Mike Waltz is in Florida's sixth district and he thinks the diplomatic boycott, He's right about this of the Beijing Olympics is ridiculous. He says it doesn't go far enough. And he says it is disgraceful. US companies will rake in millions off the Olympics while whitewashing an ongoing genocide and other atrocities in China. And Mike Walts joins us, Now, I agree with you, and I'm a little torn on the issue for this. One reason is you have athletes, Congressman. They have devoted in some cases a decade of their life these Olympics. I hate for them to suffer to make a political statement because this has been their dream that that is my only hesitancy. Short of that, I wouldn't have anything to do with China at this point in time. No, I feel you, Sean, absolutely, and my heart breaks for them too. And where our anger should be directed is that the morally corrupt IOC, an International Olympic Committee. Myself and a number of others have been asking the IOC for years to move the games. That's the preferred solution. It's the IOC that has put these athletes in this position of choosing between their values and basic humanity and turning a blind eye to that to be able to compete. So that's where our focus should be is on. I don't think most people understand the genocide, the forced labor, the oppression of minorities that are that's actually going on in modern day China. I don't think most people know what's going on. Why don't you give a quick summary so people understand it? Oh? Absolutely, And you know, hats off to former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo who leveled that formal designation of genocidem what's going on, but it's been carried over by the Biden administration, and what's happening is this is an ethnic Muslim people, much like what the Chinese have done to the Tibetans over the years. They have decided to wipe them off the face of the earth. What does that look like? That looks like in video has now been released. Documents have been leaked showing this was a matter of state policy coming all the way from the top in Beijing. That videos have been released showing these people lined up on their knees, head shaved, loaded onto rail cars. Sounds familiar. Shipped off the concentration camps when they get their sean. The women are separated and forced into clinics for forced sterilization or forced abortions so that they can no longer have children. Many of the younger women are then married off to ethnic Han Chinese, so there's a racism element there, so that they can then dilute uh their their gene pool. I mean. The men are then shipped off to slave labor camp. And this is where it touches American companies. These are uh this forced labor, that slave labor are producing cotton, that Nike uses are producing sugar, that Coca Cola uses are producing raw materials uh and mind slave labor minds that Intel uses for its computer chips. So all of these companies are complicit, and it shouldn't surprise anybody that all of these companies are are what I'm calling genocide Olympic sponsors at the same time, Sean, and this is where we're just so sick and tired of the hypocrisy. These are the same companies that want to boycott Georgia over its voter integrity laws, that want to you know, move the All Star Game for Major League Baseball, that want to you know, continue to preach social justice because it's patting their balance sheet here in the United States. At the same time, it's uh, you know, at the same time they're patting their balance sheet by ignoring basic human rights over in over in China. All Right, we'll take a break. We'll come back more with Congressman Mike Waltz, and then your calls eight hundred and nine for one, Shawn our number. You want to be a part of the program. The Truth, The Truth, and nothing but Andy is on right now, right as we continue with Congressman Michael Waltz, as we continue our discussion about the Chinese Olympics and the human atrocities that are happening with China. You know, it's it's sad because what you're pointing out is true. This is genocide and we're talking about you know, the weager community in China, the ethnic Muslim population, and you're right about the Tibetans. How there's been systematic discrimination and persecution of them as well. It's become an issue now in the NBA. Also, it doesn't seem like anybody in the world cares that this is now ongoing. Why is that except for very few like in a cancer or now mister Freedom he changed his name to Freedom, the Boston Celtics basketball player. There's a few that are standing up now. They've been a few basketball players that haven't, and by the way, they've been punished for doing it, and they've been encouraged to stop. That's right, that's right. But then on the other side of that, you have people like Lebron James that again you know, wants to preach about social justice in the United States, but then enters into shoe deals with Chinese companies, not even American companies sourcing their Chinese companies that are outright using slave labor. So the hypocrisy is just rank and then you know, add to that, there's one other piece that I don't think enough people are talking about, you know, the IOC, when presented with all of these just gross and awful abuses Hong Kong, COVID, the leaguers, they say, well, we don't do politics, you know, that's not what the Olympics are about, and that's why we don't support moving the games or boycotts. Yet they seem to support it just fine. When it came to apartheid in South Africa, not only did they prevent any Olympic Games from happening in South Africa, they've banned the South African Olympic team from participating in any Olympics anywhere in the world for nearly thirty years. So is that somehow morally better or worse than an ongoing genocide against Muslims? Do the oppression of the African America or the Africans in South Africa somehow better or worse than a million Muslims and concentration camps? Of course, not the differences. The money NBC, you know, is making billions and don't in paying billions to the IOC, Coca Cola, Procter, Gamble, Airbnb, all of them are drunk on Chinese money, and as Cantor said it best, you know, no amount of gold medals is worth your values. And so I would ask these same athletes, and I worry about them as well as you do, Sean, but I would ask him if the United States government had a million Muslims and a concentration camp, do you think the women's soccer team would be demanding to still compete though they would be protesting in the streets as you can, and by the way you were, and you just haven't gotten to it. I think you've laid out of an extraordinarily compelling case about how horror horrific this is. And it's it's hard to imagine that this exists in the year twenty twenty one now soon to be twenty twenty two. But you haven't even mentioned the crackdown in Hong Kong, and you haven't mentioned the territorial ambitions with Taiwan and what they're calling reunification and flying fighter jets over Taiwan airspace that's now ongoing. And my guess is probably sometime after the Olympics, Taiwan will be quote taken over by China. Well, and as it looks. And I haven't even mentioned the five million people dead around the world from COVID or the fact it No, that's another good point, too, right, that they've absolutely refused to quoffery. But here's another point. Dictators love the Olympics. It gives them a global platform. Everybody there is turning a blind eye to their atrocities, and it emboldens them. We all know what, obviously what Hitler did after thirty six, but it's important to point out that Putin invaded Primea and Ukraine two months after the Socio Olympics. So you're absolutely right to fear for Taiwan after the Olympic. Z is going to be a basically elected dictator for life by the Communist Party this summer, and I think between summer and when he knows Biden may go it is a very very dangerous window. And why does that matter to everyday Americans? Well, if they get Taiwan, they basically control trade into Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, parts of Australia. It'll be They've been outright threatening Japan in the US. You know, they've actually criticized and written the US over landing airplanes in Taiwan. As if they have a say, well, that's right now, I was just a briefings in the Pentagon this morning, Sean, and expect that if we can test and defend that democracy in Taiwan, that we we're talking about our electrical grid and other types of cyber attacks right here at home. So they have no problem showing off. They're hypersonic missiles that apparently can shoot nukes, which by the way, which by the way, is a first strike weapon. We cannot defend against it. But here's the you know, the damning saying, Sean, is all of that. Their navy is larger than ours, they're launching more in space than us. The hypersonic is being bought and paid for with American money, between our trade deficit, between our pension funds Larry Fink and Black Rock, the hedge fund, community, Wall Street, Hollywood historians are going to look back on this and say, you know, America was drunk on Chinese dollars. Hunter Biden, the son of the President, is absolutely corrupt on it. But it is our dollars that are flowing over and funding their military build up, their Belt and Road initiative, their debt, diplomacy, and everything else. So my call to action as we head into the Christmas shopping season for everyone. When you see made in China, put it down, we wouldn't have a supply chage crisis that it was made in America. And I don't tell you've made the most compelling case of anybody that I have heard, and I think people need to understand what's what we're dealing with here, and you've You've done a great job doing that, Congressman. Congressman Mike Waltz, thanks for being one of us. Far to sixth District. Thank you, sir. Quick break right back your calls on the other side, straight ahead. Get your dose of independence and liberty every weekday right here on the Sean Hannity Show. I'm twenty five to the top of the hour, eight hundred and nine four one, Sean. If you want to be a part of the program, Dana is in Oklahoma. Dana, glad you're called. Hey, Thank you Sean. Thank you Sean, and it is great being able to talk to you. I'll tell you are blessed and we're blessed also to be able to hear someone that tells the truth straight out. Thank you. We're trying every day, and we're trying to save the country. Every we need all hands on duck. You bet, you bet, and you you're doing a great job at it. I appreciate it. I want to stay just real quick. You know, they are trying to destroy a Martha and oh, they're trying so hard to take the power, take everything we have that you know, Sean, the one thing they cannot take is our fate, and we will stand strong in our face. You can't take that away from us, you know, I will tell you it's These are troubling times, but I feel a sense of optimism. And as much as I think people have woken up to the fact the numbers are very clear, they're unambiguous. People are hip to the fact that Joe is a mess, and frankly, he's getting worse every day. Pelosi is just as bad, Kamala even worse than maybe the two of them combined. We don't have good options, and I think people are beginning to realize maybe Donald Trump's mean tweeting that offended everybody so much, wasn't so bad because we were energy and dependent. We secured our borders, he lowered taxes, he ended you know, the bureaucracy. He kept his word on judges, he kept his word on free and fair trade, he kept his word on standing up to hostile regimes, but yet keeping us out of these never ending foreign conflicts. And you know what, and I think we also are learning that America and the world needs a tough American president. Weakness like Joe incurs aggression. And that's why we see what's unfolding in the world right now with Russia and Ukraine, with China and Taiwan, and nobody seems to want to talk about it. It's pretty scary. These are scary times. Then you watch the likes of Mitch McConnell. I mean, there's a swamp creature if ever there was one. You know, now they have this new rule in the Senate. This carve out that he's now given them, the Democrats, another chance to raise the death ceiling only because he's allowing it. And that's not leadership. The same Democrats that won't allow the Republicans to have one word or set any say at all in the budgetary process. Way with Joe Manchin, looks like the Senate is now poised to nullify Biden's vaccine mandate. That's good news. Let's see what happens in the House. The Republicans have got a fight, and any Republican that joins Mitch, I don't. I'm done. That's a line in the sand for me. I want no part of it. They said they wouldn't do it in September, then they said they wouldn't do it again. And then Mitch goes behind the backs of every Senate Republican and cuts a deal with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer again to get them more, to get them more time for their build back, better new Green Deal socialism. Anyway, danna thank you Tony in Texas. We got three Texas calls up. We got Tony. I'll tell you what we'll do. We'll put Tony Amy and Corina from all from Texas on at the same time. Now, Tony Amy and Corina are a lot smarter than I am. Welcome all of you to the program. Tony. We're gonna let the ladies start first. Amy, you go ahead with your comments, then we'll move along. Hey, well, Sean, thank you for all you do all the time. And I just want to say I listened to a caller, Kay, what can we do? What can we do? And I think that the Republicans should bring up articles of impeachment like every day or every week, let them vote on it. Who cares who we get after that? Biden, you can bring up articles that week. We don't have the votes. Um I think you might find between now in twenty twenty four a lot of talk about the twenty fifth Amendment. He may not. I don't think he's up to the job. And I just it's getting more obvious every day. And a couple of my friends are going to be coming out here, I'm told cabinet members. But you know, here we go. Where is everybody true? How do I cross some bridge in the snowstorm? What happened? No? I think about it. You know you're in a situation. What happens in the bridge collapses and there's a fire on the other side. It's gonna take ten miles longer to get to the fire. People can die. I mean this is real, uh, Karina? You want to weigh in from Texas? Um Sean. First, I need to say that you you are amazing. I love you, love your show. But I wanted to I wanted to weigh in on the on the schools today Um, I, first of all a little bit. I mean, I am a Romanian immigrant. I came here when I was fourteen years old with my family and we fled the country in eighty six when he was a communist country. UM. And I just want to I'm a mother now and I want to wait in on the what I'm seeing today, what I'm seeing in the schools. So, UM, is it okay if I talk about that? An okay? Um? So I know you, you of everybody, you know all the similarities, but what I see is just short of amazing. Um. For example, one example, um, in the communist country, in a communisation regime, there were no parents, there were no say so from them. UM. Sorry, I'm a little nervous first time. You're just no, we're just having a little conversation. But this is your experience, this is your life, and you're trying to warn people about how bad I can get. Yes, yes, yes, If we continue on this path, it's just going to be horrible. And I believe that people don't really know they hurt that word communism, but I don't think they fully understand what that means. UM. So yes. So obviously when I left I was fourteen so I know firsthand what it was like and uh what I went through, what we went through um as a as a whole, and how in school school obviously no kids like school. School was horrible for us because they called it the Communists they called it disciplining, but I call it beating. You know, they will just hear us point blank. They will just smack us if we were just not disobeying, you know, we were just kids, but not having the uniforms the right way. Maybe they thought it was wrinkled or the hair knock combed, you know like that, so they will just smack us for the reason. And parents no say so whatsoever. The Minister of Education, I think it was called, they were the ones. It was very similar to the Bard of Education. They were the ones. They were designing the school curriculum and our extracurriculum activities like that. And then if parents were just asking about some of the materials they will see or anything, then you know that those parents they are marked them and their families. They were just marked for life. And they were just being harassed, you know by the the security, the dictator security, which is something equivalent to the FDI. They were being harassed questioned, intimidated, you know like that. So people were so scared of course they wouldn't say anything, that wouldn't question anything, Okay, because people were so so easily being interrogated and for no reason, oftentimes they were being imprisoned. You're explaining something that a lot of people don't know, and that is life under communism. You know, I devoted a whole chapter and live free or die to this whole notion that you know, whatever is m communism, socialism, it always ends in failure, broken promises, more poverty. It just always he ends the same way. And you lived it, you saw it, and you know the predictable results. That's what history has shown us. Let's not forget Tony in Texas. Tony, you can join Amy and Karina. Yeah, Hi, Sean, thanks for taking Paul greetings for the lone Star State. One of the things that I'm really concerned with this is another chink that they're throwing at us to tear down our capital, capitalism and free market is these eighty seven billion dollars that he's going to be spending in the next ten years, committed to hiring eighty thousand plus i rs ages, you know, and I'm reading the Washington Post and reading the Wall Street Journal and a different different you can. I tell you what this is going to mean. You're gonna get the Hannity treatment. What does that mean? I already experienced this every year, every single year, the Hannity treatment age. They pull you a file, and I pay my taxes. I pay them all, you know, I constantly I'm telling you know, I don't have my taxes done by one accounting firm. I have it done by my accounting firm, then my lead attorneys accounting firm to make sure it's perfect every single year. And if there's any discrepancy, we always side with pay. The word is just pay it, pay it, pay pay it. That's what we hear all day because the laws, you know, are not equally applied in this country anymore. You know, Conservatives will go to jail for spitting on the sidewalk. I don't ever not pay your taxes if you're especially if you're a conservative. My advice, pay your taxes. I pay through the nose. And it becomes so obvious. They pull the file, they look at the income, and they look at the amount paid, and they already know immediately that there's no Shenanigans going on. That's how I do it. But you're right, every American now is going to be tortured. That's why they want to get into you know, every if you if you have any banking over, if you take in more than ten grand a year, they can literally spy on your entire life through your banking information. It's ridiculous. Those that are the millionaires and billionaires of the country, they have office rooms full of lawyers that will be protecting them. But those of us that don't have that work every day, they're gonna come after us because we're low hanging fruit. And that's how he's going to pay for this teardown faster program instead of big build back. I have to pay those lawyers every year. You know, if questions are asked, you have to have your lawyers talk to them. It's a pain in the ass. And now they're gonna they are now going after every American because these guys are gonna have to justify their pay. They're not gonna be able to sit there and just cash a check and not go through people's files. I mean, you would, you know, what kind of country do we want to live in? Here? You know, do we really want our government spying on six hundred dollars transactions or spying on people's bank accounts. Anybody that makes ten grand a year or more, it's the same thing. Not a dime's worth a difference. Now, with that set, I urge everybody to pay their time boxes. I pay them. It sucks, but I pay it. Um. Anyway, we had a great trio of Cal's, Amy, Corina, Tony, thank you, Jerry and Florida. You're on the Sean Hannity Show. Jerry, how are you? I'm doing fine? How are you? I'm good? Thank you? Um, I'm calling. I was. I was calling because you were talking about them, the covid virus and the mona cola. Yes, ma'am and um, I remember retired nursing professor, but i've so it's given me a lot of time to keep up on rus. Something your list jobs is the the Monta colona. Anybody's um is on a covid virus, you have from infection two symptoms, you have about six days correct, I've been really affected for about six days on these variants. It's closer to four days. So the variants are replicating much to what you're really saying, is you better move and call I, call, I, keep calling about this cytokine storm. That's the that's the storm in your lungs. That's covid lung that that's covid pneumonia, use any term you want. And it usually happens. Again. I don't know about the variant yet because we haven't gotten any science back on it. But day six, seven, eight, usually seven to ten. And what happens is this is now your own immune system turns against itself in a weird way and overreacts to the virus. And that's where all the damages created. Now people are at home and they're checking the temperature, and they're checking their their oxygen saturation levels, and by the time their oxygen levels start going down, the damage has been done. If you pop positive, you get a positive test on covid vaccinated, unvaccinated, do not pass, do not collect two hundred. Call your doctor immediately and ask your doctor about monoclonal antibodies. And if your doctor doesn't know about it, call a doctor that does. Find people that know, um, do that. How does that summ it up enough for you? That's pretty good. Fortunately, here in a hot Florida. We have the best governor in the country and he has set up to the antibody stations and if you have been exposed, I mean you got down there, they test you and boom, you're treated. It's correctly. I had a friend of mine pop positive in Florida, uh, just in the last week and immediately went and called his doctor, took my advice, called his doctor and went and got the In his case, he got the shots, not the infusion. Both seem to work and is doing fine. I think it's day six now, um, yet you get past day ten and year golden. That's what I would do, but ask you doctor. All right, that's gonna wrap things up for it today, all right.
