And be sure you watch Hannity tonight on on the Fox News Channel. Has got a big, big show tonight. He's gonna interview the Israeli Prime Minister, Phoebe Net and Yahoo and they actually take a helicopter ride over the Israeli Palestinian border. Now, look at the work that Sean does. I walked a couple of blocks. I'll sit here for a few hours. He's an Israel He's taking a helicopter down to the Palestinian border. This is gonna be quite a show tonight on the Fox News Channel. And the medtime, We've got lots to talk about. President Trump just left the Treasury Department. He went over there to sign some executive orders. The big thing now is beginning this at tax reform, not just lower taxes, but trying to streamline the whole process. So you probably just did your taxes can you figure it out? You know, a lot of people. I mean, unless you got the simplest, simplest thing in the world, you know, just a little one income and that and no deductions, no h investments. No, maybe you could do your own tax form. But other than otherwise, it's impossible for anybody really do their own taxes. So that's the beginning of a push for tax reform. Simplify the whole thing. Hey, you know you might be saying, well, why what's this is a no brainer? Just simplify it to the tax system, simple easy. Bring the tax rates down. Bring the corporate tax down to the same low rate in every other country. Why would you have it so high? Why would you have this tax stuff so complicated? There's a reason for that. Democrats love it high, but some of these Republicans it's it's more of a politician thing. All these politicians love this high corporate tax, complicated taxes. That way, all the companies have to come to them for every tax break, for every little carve out, every time they need something, and you've got to come with an army of lobbyists and donations and money and buy everything you need. Once you lower it down to a nice low rate, and you have a simplified tax from they'll never hear from these corporations again. The lobbyists won't be showing up with big checkbooks. So that's part of the problem. But we finally have a president who isn't gonna get swept up in all of that and will finally cut through all of that. So he's leaving the Treasury Department is a great thing. There. He's had an incredible couple of weeks. You can tell when he's really doing well. There's one, uh little measure of how whenever you hear all the Democrats screaming about his tax return, we've got to see his tax return, that means he had the greatest week ever. If they're back to this tax return from last year, that was great. You know, there's this woman, a charity worker. She's an American. She was in Egypt doing charity work. She was seized and put in prison for no reason at all, wrongfully in prison. She's been there for years. Obama administration couldn't do a thing to get her out. Donald Trump goes to work with the Egyptian president, his people in Egypt. They start negotiating. Woman is released yesterday. Did you see the story? No, of course you didn't. There's a news blackout on this. I know there was one story in the Washington Post, but with the headline they didn't quite make it clear that it was Donald Trump and some great negotiating skill that finally got a release. And you ask all these news directors, Hey, why aren't you all over this story. Well, it's totally it's not really news. It's not If President Obama had personally negotiated the release of a prisoner who had been held incorrectly for years, that would have been the front page of every newspaper. That would have been the first twenty minutes of Rachel matt Out. That that's all you'd be hearing about all day long. But media blackout, um the whole thing. Hey, did you know that former President Obama is now tampering with the French election? Yeah, he's actually involved in the French election, tampering with it, trying to influence it. You've got it conservative candidate whose anti immigration and after the awful terrorist incident. Um that may help the conservative, but President Obama pushing the liberal candidate. In fact, he's been on the phone colluding with him. See another news blackout. You really don't read much about that, do you. Hey, and Culture will be with us later. By the way, this will be interesting. Now, what's the latest on Berkeley? She was going to speak at Berkeley, and you think, uh, you know, listen, she's a great speaker. You think students of no matter what side of the aisle you're on, would be interested. Obviously, if you agree with her, you'd love to hear her speak. But even if you don't, if you disagree, it'd be really interesting to hear her speak, wouldn't it. So Berkeley being your typical American college, trying to censor everything and anybody that disagrees with him. So the speech canceled, it's back on. It's canceled, it's back I she'll be with us later and we'll find out what the latest is. I know lawyers are getting involved in this. It's the strangest phenomenon. It. You could the most wacky, crazy, dangerous, far left liberal. You're welcome on any college campus. But if you're a nice, orderly conservative who very well mannered, gonna just make a nice little speech, it might be a blunt, but it's an interesting speech. Band It's not just banned. There's threats of rioting and throwing rocks and molotov cocktails and violence. That's why they cancel it. But what kind of world have we come to? Uh? Where nobody, especially in the college campus, doesn't want to hear another point of view. Everybody's gonna agree with everything. Hey, look at all this war with the Fox Network, all these New York Times and everybody going after them. You know, you've got five hundred liberal outlets, every inch of major media, all the networks are liberal, all the cable networks are liberal, All the major newspapers are liberal. So you got one network that might be conservative, the Fox Network. You have everybody going after them, trying to stop them, trying to silence them. It's like they want the old s Viets system where there's like one party controls the entire media, no dissenting views anywhere. Uh, where's the Democrat out there? Hey, if you're a Democrat or a liberal, call me and explain this phenomenon to me. Why why there can't be any opposing point of view everywhere? Shawn is the number one hundred nine four one sean. Uh In next week, you know they're gonna try to push some tax legislation. And also, if you're a liberal or a Democrat, could you explain this desperate attempt to see Donald Trump's tax return from last year? Hey, remember Rachel Maddow a couple of weeks ago, that was a tax return. How old is that? Five years ago something like that? Uh? And what did he make? There was a maybe two hundred million that year. He paid like millions in taxes, paid thirty eight million in taxes. Uh. So, but we must see last year. I must see that. Remember the one from years ago is around two thousand eight, that's like right after the crash. You gotta figure that was a bad year for him. So what are you going to see this time? That he made even more? And then all these crazy liberals and all these commentators keep saying, we can't do tax reform and we can't let him pass any tax laws until we see his tax return because we have to know if he's going to be personally affected by any of us. I mean, you really have to be Colombo, you really have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out what his tax return might look like. Let me guess he's in the highest possible tax bracket. He made a fortune. He's got tremendous deductions when it comes to real estate. Whenever you're in the real estate the world, a lot of deductions involved. Uh, and let me guess he's got massive investments stocks, the bonds, that kind of thing. There's capital gains, all those sort of deductions. So what is it we really need to see? So we have obtained Donald Trump's tax returns tonight. It's ten forty from the year two thousand and five, the first time his federal tax returns have been made public have been obtained by any news organization since he is a presidential candidate, let alone since he was president. They were tamed by investigative reporter David K. Johnston and his reporting shop d C Report dot org. Um these tax returns verre It's very interesting questions about how much the president's own proposed tax policies would improve his own personal bottom line, but they raised even more questions about what we haven't yet seen. Trump is the first president since the Watergate era to refuse to release his taxes of his own accord, which makes this release who knows where it came from, both an interesting news development and potentially a historic one. Yeah, that was riveting television riveting. By the end, we found out that Donald Trump made a lot of money and news. Now. You know here in New York, there was a blizzard that night. You remember that. It was during the blizzard, so everybody was stuck at home. You know, they said, look at the ratings she got because it was a blizzard, everybody was stuck here. You had to watch it. It was so I mean, what do you think he was seeing these tax returns? You remember last year. Towards the end of last year, Uh, there was something. People were demanding something from Hillary Clinton. They wanted to release something, her medical records or something, remember, and she was trying to distract So she suddenly released her tax returns and they were pretty shocking. It showed that Bill and Hillary Clinton last year made eighteen million dollars without having a job. Neither of them were working last year and still made eighteen million dollars. That was pretty amazing. Nobody heard about it, Nobody cared about it. Nobody read the tax returns. Hey, Barack Obama released his tax returns last year. Tell me what's in it? You see? Nobody remember, nobody reads these tax returns. Let's take a call. Let's go to Fran and Long Branch, New Jersey. Hey, Fran, how are you nice? I just wanted to comment on why the press is so obsessed with seeing the President Trump's taxi. I think they don't have anything else to do. They really can't be that negative anymore. They're not as popular as they used to day with their opinions, and I think if they get a whole of this tax returns, they can make an issue out of any little thing he did or did not do. If you pay too much, he's saying, well, he makes too much money. If he didn't pay enough, they say he should pay more money, and they're going to compare it to anything he wants to do, how need to do with taxes? It was just another negativity. Well that's true. But you know the worst thing is at some point Donald Trump will release these taxes and it will be like the Rachel Mattowe will be right back where we started from. First of all, his tax form is like literally three D pages. Can you read this thing? I can't even read my tax return. You know, my accountant sends it to me before you know, before it's sent to the IRA. I'm supposed to approve it. I don't know what the hell it says. I can't read any of this, so uh, it's just one big waste of time. Uh, we'll tax what calls in a minute. One eight nine for one. Seawan is the number one eight hundred nine for one Sean. Uh. And and and culture will be with us. Larry Cuddler will be here a little bit. He's the only one that could actually read these tax returns and know what it says. Hey, welcome back. It's as Sean Hannity Show. Mark Simone here, Sean is in Israel. We've got tonight. You don't want to miss this Fox News Channel ten o'clock tonight, Big special Sean Hannity exclusive interview with Israeli Prime Minister b b Net and Yahoo and they will actually take a helicopter ride together over the border the Israeli Palestinian border. Be a fascinating show. Ten o'clock Eastern time tonight on the Fox News Channel. Let's go to Max in Indian River, Michigan. Hey, Max, how you doing. I'm doing good. I listened to the show and I heard you say you'd want somebody that's liberal leaning, Democratic supporting to call in to talk about sex. Very nice of you. Know, why do you nuts want to see his tax returns? What is in that tax return you want to see? Well, like I told your screener, who, by the way, was awesome, Um, hey hey, hey hey, no sexual harassment here, No, no, he was just awesome. It's a very good producer, as Lauren. One of two things. One he will either show us the taxes and I will be shown that I'm wrong about What do you mean that he's entangled in places with money interests throughout the world that would not benefit the country. They're only benefiting him. What? What? What? What? What in your imagination are you dreaming up he's entangled in I'm not I'm not imagining anything. I'm saying that he can do. He can do two things. One he can leave it so that people believe that there are entanglements that he's trying to hide. He's lied to the country when he said he can't release his taxes because he's under a wait wait wait wait, that's not wait wait wait wait hold or hold hold hold a hold at hold it. You can't just make crazy claims. You cannot release your tax returns when you're under audit. I know. If you ask the lawyer is it technically legal, he would say yes. But if you ask any reputable lawyer would you allow a client to release taxes under audit? They will say absolutely not. You cannot release under audit. I'm not sure or about I'm not sure about that. I know the reason you're not sure about that is you made sure not to ever look into that. But if you ask any lawyer, would you allow a You know, this is what MSNBC and CNN do. This is that little trick they pull. They always have the lawyer on and then they'll say are you allowed to release a tax return under audit? And I said, yes, you legally can. They never asked the next question, would you ever let a client do that? And they would say absolutely not. I can tell you that I wouldn't get a lawyer if somebody asked me to see my tax returns because I don't have anything to hide. Yes you do, I don't, Yes you do. We don't know you you don't have We don't know you have financial entanglements, shady kinds of entanglements all over. How do we not know that you haven't shown your tax returns? Do you want them I'll send it to you. I have absolutely no problem with anybody analyzing, because I'm honest. You don't know if that you sound like a nice guy. But yeah, hey, well let me ask you. Let me just ask you something. Donald tru has put out a hundred page financial disclosure that's far more detailed about assets, what he owns, what he has than the tax return would show. But that should tell you everything you need to know. The tax return tells you're very little. No, because almost every other dan on to every show that I've seen, and I've watched five or six different networks, I listen to m okay, But you do realize the tax return doesn't show all his income. The income can come into the company's The only thing a tax return shows is what he's chosen to pay himself. It's a private company. He can do whatever he wants. All you see on the tax return. It doesn't show charitable contributions that's done to the foundation. Tax returns, and it just shows whatever income he chose to pay himself. You see very little in a tax return. That that's your opinion. No, it's not my opinion. It's true. Let me give you an example. Hey, thanks for calling Max. Let me give you an example. If you were to look at Warren Buffett's tax return, he's practically the richest man in the world. All the tax return shows is he made seventy five thousand dollars last year, because that's all he pays himself. It's a way of avoiding taxes. But that's all it shows, and it doesn't show any charitable contributions, when in fact he's made billions in charitable contributions. But again that would be in the Foundation tax returns, not his personal ones. Hey, follow me on Instagram, Mark Simone n y at Instagram. Uh. In fact, if you do that now you'll see some pictures of me and Sean from the other night. Mark Simone n y at Instagram or on Twitter to uh. And culture is gonna be with us a little while Larry Cudlow coming up. It's Mark Simone here for Sean. Don't forget watch Hannity tonight ten o'clock, Big Special interview with b B Net and yeah, who will take some more calls in a minute? One eight hundred nine f one. Sean is the number. Hey, welcome back, Mark Simone here for Sean. Hannity, Sean will be back on Monday, but tonight he's gonna be on the Fox News Channel Big Show tonight at ten o'clock Hill interview is Raeli Prime Minister b B Net and Yahoo, and not only an exclusive interview, but they're gonna take a helicopter ride over the Israeli Palestinian border. So it should be an interesting show tonight at ten on the Fox News Channel. That just gave out my Instagram and told people to, uh friend me on the Instagram. You know it's interesting when you do that. I can look at you. You know, it's interesting when you see the audience because all of a sudden, you see, just like in the last few minutes, who signed up on Instagram and look at that all ages nice look an audience. Of course, everybody only puts their best picture on Instagram, but nice looking, nice looking listeners to this show, very sharp looking. Let's take some calls. Let's go to Chuck in New York. Hey, Chuck, Chuck, Hey, how are you doing today? Let me check not bad? Well, I was just saying listening to you, and you know it's funny how you know we sit here and wonder what's in the President's no we don't we know what's we know exactly what's in him? No, we don't. We don't know what's in there? Yeah, I mean we only know what what? What? What do you tell us? No, we know nothing. I guarantee you when you see these tax returns, he made a million, He paid fifty million in taxes, got a lot of real estate deductions, investment inductions. What what else would you think is in there? But who? Who is he tied up with? Who is he that's in the that's in the hundred page financial disclosure? Don't tell us anything. It tells you everything. It's a hundred pages of financial details. You know. I like to give every president a fair chance. And when you don't, who are you kidding? I do? I like his his strength as far as when it comes to wars and stuff, you know, But but I want to trust who's in office. All right, Well, Rachel Maddow had a big tax return and she went over and vivid detail a couple weeks ago. What was in that? I mean basically nothing? Well, what do you think is in this one? She got a couple of pages of nothing. What do you think it's in this one? There's a lot more you know, why would there be more in this one than that one. Let me tell you something. I'm the type of person if I if there's information that I'm holding back from people, is because I have something that I don't want to tell you that it is very close to me and it may not go right. Well, we've already proven your theory incorrect because he didn't want to release the two thousand and five ones. Somebody smuggled it out and there was nothing in it except just what you'd expect. I don't know, man, it just seems like I think it's good not to release I think it's important. I think it's important not to release these tax returns just to drive you people nuts, just to make you liberals crazy. Just listen to Hillary Clinton. They release their tax tell me what was in it? And we found out that they made a certain amount of money. What and how the Republicans are going crazy over that? Nobody nobody's even mentioned, Nobody ever talked about it, nobody noticed, nobody cared, nobody mentioned it. Of course, I'll listen to you guys all the time. You guys, what he ever talks about? I just mentioned ten minutes ago. That was the first time and hey, did you did you alson? Notice? Uh? In Clinton world, they were all tied up with the Russians. They were getting tens of millions into the Clinton Foundation from Russia. Her campaign manager Podesta got a thirty million dollar check from a Russian a bank connected with Putin? Did you know her campaign manager's family got millions last year to be paid Russian agents? What we were are you guys getting from from them? From the Podesta family? Podestas? Wait? Wait, wait, Podesta's brother is registered as a foreign agent. He represented Russia. He got a few million dollars last year. It's on the record, and we're making a big deal about that. But we can't make a big deal. I don't hear anybody mention. Nobody ever mentioned it. Her campaign manager. Her campaign manager, John Podesta is because one of the directors of a little Massachusetts company and somehow last year one of Vladimir Putin's banks decided to give him thirty million bucks. Is that just a coincidence? All right? But I'm just saying, I don't hear anybody worrying about that, So I wouldn't sweat the Trump tax returns. All you're gonna find out is he made a ton of money and paid a lot of taxes. But as a Democrat, we're gonna sweat it, you know, just like how you sweat things that that the Democrats do. You know, did you hear that my pillow I was talking about. You might want to get one of those and get a little more rest. So, you know, you just seem to be stressed out over this. Uh. If you can't sleep as you're worrying about these tax returns, try my pillow. Maybe that'll help. Let's go to uh, let's go to Los Angeles and say hello to Joe. Joe. What's going on out there, Joey? Work things? Um one, Uh, just beyond the issue. Hey, if lot Tump releases all those taxes, all the members of Congress in the Senatory release their taxes, fine with me, and how about all the heads of the Democratic Party. But more importantly for me, and now is the time need to remind people that every time we lower taxes for everybody, we get more increased revenues to the government and we increase economic activity. It always happens, and maybe it happen to the Roaring twenties, of Swinging sixties, the grade eighties, and the early two thousands. Well that's true. You know with Reagan lower taxes, it doubled revenue. Bush lowered taxes, you set the all time record at the time for revenue coming in. But you can't remind Democrats of that because they will not remember it. We need, we need to have this debate. I keep hearing this, stupid. I'm just telling you. With a Democrat, you cannot remind them because one second later they won't remember. You could say it a thousand times, you could take out it, put it on a big billboard right across from their house. You could tattoo it on their forehead. They will not remember it. They'll forget it a second later. All we need to do is remember remember that. Make the spineless Republicans in Congress remember it, and all these fifty one of them to remember it. Do you reduce taxes and we're gonna have an economy like you've never seen. It's gonna be huge, for sure, always happens. I agree, you're preaching to the choir here, but again, you cannot Democrats say one second later, uh, they forget it. Eight one sean is the number eight hundred nine four one sean did you hear about the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young they're gonna reunite. Now, these guys hate each other, they want to kill each other. They can't stand each other. Why would they reunite? It says they hate Donald Trump so much. They hate Donald Trump so much that it's stronger than their hatred for each other. So they're getting back together to record anti Trump songs. You see Bruce Springsteen has put out an anti Trump song. Did you also see that there's this yacht, this zillion dollar ten mile long yacht that's owned by David Geffen and it's in the South Pacific right now. On board this yacht is Barack Obama and his wife. They're on this yacht with Oprah Winfrey. Who else is that? Tom Hanks is on there? And it says Bruce Springsteen is on board this yacht. Wait a minute, isn't He's supposed to be broken down on his motorcycle on the highway in New Jersey. I don't we hear anything in the songs about being on a hundred million dollar yacht with David Geffen. Alchemy doesn't think about that. So he's gotten an anti Trump song coming out. You know, Oprah has that friend, that big star chaser, that Gail King who's on the CBS Morning Show with Charlie Rose. So it turns out she's on the yacht. And that's kind of embarrassing because she's been posing as a journalist for the last couple of years, pretending she's a journalist on the CBS Morning Show. And even Charlie Rose, who's pretty liberal, they tell me he's very upset. And that's supposed to be on the yacht with President Obama hanging out with him. You're supposed to look objective. Of course, it's a little tougher anybody on that CBS Morning Show. Eight hundred nine four one seawn is the number. Let's go to Jan in Wisconsin. Hey, Jan, how you doing? Hey? Hey, I'm doing well. And what do you want to say? Jan? I'm here, I know I can tell what do you want to say? So? I wanted to talk about Donald Trump's taxes. I am really sick and tired of all of these people calling in talking about the fact that he needs to release his taxes. I don't think even if he released his taxes, they would even understand how to read those taxes. The mainstream media will take every single tax line and manipulate it and spin it in some undue fashion that he that he's done this, or he's claimed this, or he's taken this deduction, and then he'll have a drove of questions. Yeah, I don't think even have to worry about that. I really don't think. If you were about it'll be just like it will be the same as the two thousand five tax returns. They couldn't find anything in there. Hey, it's not even worth talking about. The only thing is and just remember this, whenever you hear them talking about his tax returns, it means he's had the greatest week ever. They cannot find anything to pick on if there's nothing to attack him for. Back to the tax returns from last year. What I have here is a copy of Donald Trump's tax returns. We have his federal tracks return for one year, for two thousand five. I believe this is the only set of the president's federal taxes that reporters have ever gotten ahold of What we have are these two pages front and back from the same ten forty form that you might have filled out when you file your taxes um and in terms of what's on here. Let me give you the basics. Aside from the numbers being large, these pages are straightforward. He paid thirty eight million dollar looks like thirty eight million dollars in taxes. He took a big write down of a hundred and three million dollars. More on that later. If you add up the lines for income, he made more than a hundred and fifty million dollars in that year. Mazzele top. We got these pages. We got this document today from a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist who's better on financial matters than almost anybody else in the business. His name is Dave K. Johnston. These pages turned up the other day in his mailbox. David will join us live here in just a moment um. But because nobody has had the president's taxes before, we didn't know what to expect um when we showed this two thousand five, returned to the White House to ask him if it's real. We sent this over to the White House tonight and the White House responded basically with yep, oh my god, it was riveting television. Do you remember she read these numbers for like twenty minutes about nothing and then they brought on that special guy and the special and investigative journalist. Remember when he came on, it was the slumpy looking guy from way up state New York who board the hell out of everybody. And this show it didn't exactly go viral on YouTube. They didn't exactly put it on a shelf in the Museum of Broadcasting. It wasn't exactly great television. And we will take some more calls in a minute. Eight hundred nine four one. Sean is the number, and culture will be with us. Larry Cudlow is coming. Hey, welcome back. It's the Sean Hannity Shows. Mark Simone here for Sean, and be watching tonight. Sean's got a big special on the Fox News channel ten o'clock tonight, exclusive interview Israeli Prime Minister b being at Yahoo and they will take together a helicopter ride over the Israeli Palestinian border. That should be interesting this tonight at Tan Eastern Fox News Channel. You know the world is always changing. Everything's changing. Sometimes that's great and sometimes it's not. So. When you walk to the counter in a drug store, you got all the cash registers and then behind them they got the cigarettes, the razor blades. It's but right below them, uh in the drug store thousands of candy bars, every kind of candy in the world. So there's tremendous pressure now to stop this. And one of the biggest and best drug store chains, CVS. They're all over the Northeast, millions of them. So they've now said no more candy up by the cash registers. They'll still sell candy and popcorn and pretzels, they'll still sell all that stuff, but they will no longer put it up on the front by the cash register. That's terrible. That's not right. That's where it belongs. That's where you see that there's now eighteen kinds of Eminem's, or that there's six different kinds of milky ways you ever try to buy Eminem's. It's so confusing. Now there's dark chocolate, milk chocolate. There's a birthday cake filled, there's peanut filled, there's almond filled, there's coffee being filled. It's like a major decision. But what are you gonna put up in the front. That's half the fun, and waiting online at the register looking at all those candy bars, which one do you like to Getminem's lately. The dark chocolate, the pretzel field is very good. That coffee bean one I don't quite get. I don't understand that one. Yeah, In fact, go online. There's four kinds of eminems you don't even know about. You don't see in most stories. But what are they gonna put in the front there under those cash reages? You're gonna it's gonna affect business, and it's gonna affect these candy companies. And I don't have to go hunt for a candy bar. The things are just changing too fast. I'm hankering for a good kale bar right now. That's probably what you're gonna get. I don't want to help me any kale up there? And where the hell did this kale come from? Three years ago? Nobody ever heard of kale? It said everywhere in everything. Where where was the boogie way of saying seaweed? I think, no, it's not seaweed. Seaweed actually has some flavor to it, Well it does if you like Japanese restaurants and sushi. No you don't. But that kale is like bitter awful. You could see why for our kale expert is out today. So who's that Linda, she's in Israel. She could tell she could give you all you need to know about some quality kale. You're kidding, she likes kale. Well, listen, I can tell you it was always around and in the farming world. When they were picking the letters, they said, oh, this taste good, all right, we'll sell this, and then maybe the sewerga and this is okay. But at some point they must have seen the kale and said, oh, we can't sell this. So for a thousand years they never even tried until this crazy era of eat. What's good supposedly has more iron more as everything is a flavor. Otherwise it's perfect. Hey, when we come back in the next hour, Larry Cuddler will be with us and Coulter coming up. Got lots to talk about. Follow me on Instagram. It's Mark Simone and White Instagram. There's a picture of the studio. Many people asking why do you have six computer screens? I don't know. We'll answer that in the next hour. Don't go away. A lot more coming up. Well. First of all, our condolences from our country to the people of France. Again, it's happening. It seems I just saw it as I was walking in. So that's a terrible thing. And it's a very very terrible thing that's going on in the world today. But it looks like another terrorist attack, and uh, what can you say? Just never ends and we have to be strong and we have to be vigilant. And I've been saying it for a long time. Well, it's just a horrible situation. The attack in Paris. Now, there's a wonderful book, The Post American Presidency, Obama's War on America and Stopped the Islamization of America's by Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer experts in this area and terrorism in these situations. And who do we have on the one? And we just Pamela Geller And where's Robert? We found him? Robert Spencer, you're there too, right? I am here? Oh good, we got both of you there. Uh, Paris, this attack. The suspect identified as a thirty nine year old. To tell us about him, who, how did he get in the country, Where did he come from? He seems to be somebody that was on their radar. As a matter of fact, he had attacked police several years ago and got a twenty years sentence. But he was released early because there's always clemency and mercy for these people that is never reciprocated with gratitude. Yeah, but with the attacks that have taken place in Paris, you would think they'd be super cautious about everything. How do they allow this to have and well, you know, it would be Islamophobic to do too much to try to brain this guy in. They have such arrestive and aggressive and rapidly growing Muslim population. They're afraid to act because if they do, then they're going to be protests against their acting strongly. Yeah, but Pamela, the Paris population, as liberal as they might be, must be saying to themselves, we've got to do something. This is this is too much. Well, the timing on this, of course, on the eve of the presidential election, I think is a nail in the coffin of um these presidential candidates, like McCrone who says that they have to learn to live with terror. The presidential election is coming down to one critical question. Will the French submit and capitulate to Islamic terror and Sharia supremacism or will they fight for France. No free society lives with terrorism. Living with terrorism means it they're surrendering and the idea that France is um. Since the Charlie Hebdo Master slorder, there have been close to two d fifty people killed, more than in the whole century prior the whole previous century of terrorism um. The knee jerk response always is to blame the victims, blame the targets, whitewashed jihad. It's to me, it's the second wave of the attack. First you get the violence you had, then you get the stealth jihad, you get the dawa you have to you're admonished not to tie the attacks to Islam, even though the jihadi is you know, declaring for Islam. I mean this jihadi Karim left a note pledging his support to us the Islamic state. And again the media goes off on these distractions like was he inspired by the Islamic State or was he what is inspiring the Islamic State. But now explain this presidential election that's taking place in there's a far left candidate the Toe and by the way, President Obama has been working with him, He's been on the phone with him trying to help. What is his position. He's somehow blaming Paris for the attack. Yes, well, that's what the left does. The left has always blamed um the West for jihad. Uh. They it's part of this leftist Islamic alliance as it's sanctioning the terror in the cause again of Islam. Now, just as he sided with the anti Brexit UM movement in the UK, once again, President Obama is on the wrong side of history. If this UM election, if this terrorist attack moves the election in any way, it will certainly move it to Lepen and anyone else that is, you know, taking a stand against jihad terror What that means? You know, they talk a lot of talk. What is the policy? Will they start monitoring the mosque? Will they stop Muslim immigration? Will they deport she had? You know, um terrorists that either are engaged in waged or plotting terra Hey, we're talking with Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer, the other candidate. They describe them isn't what they do here. They describe as anti immigration. He's not anti immigration, correct, He's just anti uh not vetting people carefully. Yeah, And this is always what they do when the establishment media is reporting on somebody like uh Lepin or Fione or Donald Trump in the United States. They try to portray the positions that they're taking in this most negative like possible. Obviously, the whole problem with immigration is only a problem with jihadis coming in among the migrant stream and Sharia supremacists coming in among the migrant streams, who want to replace the laws of France or the laws of the United States with the laws of Islam, and who are going to do violence in the pursuit of that end or work through subversive means in pursuit of that end. That's the only reason why anybody is worried about immigration. But they try to portray it as if this is a racist, bigoted, xenophobic action instead of what they ought to be doing, saying, this is a candidate who's raising issues about national security in relation to immigration that need to be addressed and challenging the leftist candidates about how they proposed to protect the French people. But they never do that, of course, because they're not on our side. Now, what's the situation in France are They are there so many undocumented or unvetted people that have come in that it's almost hopeless now trying to find terrorist hidden throughout this country. Oh yeah, there's such a large population of Muslims in Paris in particular, but all over France. And we saw it with the attackers in November who killed a hundred and thirty people in Paris. They melted back into the Muslim population in France. They moved back over to Belgium, and we're protected there in Mulenbeek, the notorious Muslim neighborhood of Antwerp for months, and everybody knew they were there, but nobody said a word to authorities. And this kind of thing makes it worse and worse more difficult all the time to track down these people. Well, and how good are the French of law enforcement and investigators if they really did want to crack down at finding the trouble in the in the population, I think it would been overwhelmed their terroists. And this is now six months old. Their terroal list is over ten thousand suspects that they are monitoring. At some point. It's not a question of good, it's a question of quantity and and and and number. Um. There's a complete freedom of movement. Part of the E used destructive policies, immigration policies, and so you see even the jihadi that opened fire on the police and killed the police office tragically and ironically that the jet officer was a first responder, a bota klan. I mean, you know, it's touched every life repeatedly. And and so he came from Belgium. They travel in as Robert said, they travel from country to country. They have these Muslim no go neighborhoods, these no go zones that are protected. They protect the jihadis. He was, he was on the fly for weeks. They couldn't find him. He was protected. So this idea that it's one guy and it's fringe, and it's you know, it's a lone wolf. There are no lone wolves in the global jihad. Now, this is France. It's a desperate, dangerous situation there. What about the rest of your what Germany's got the same problem, Sweden, where else? The whole of a continent. I mean, there literally was an invasion, a migration to um into Europe, and anyone that opposed it was a racist, islamophobic, anti Muslim thing. And if you recall, you could not oppose the the overwhelming uh male military age fit. I mean, yes, the media would find a photo of a child and that would be strategically placed on a beach, deliberately moved again manipulation propaganda to support this invasion of Europe. But for those of us, like Robert Spencer and myself whose websites are devoted to U Jihad, Terra and Shariah every day, we can't keep up the thwarted attacks, with the attacks, with what's going on in Sweden, the rape capital of the world, um Germany. And this is really Merkle's doing because she was the power. She's the power, they have the money, they're the engine behind the EU and I I predict that the EU is is going to to fall, particularly of le pen or Um uh plan Is is more elected. I wish you had more times. Great talking to you guys, Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer. What's your website? The people should go to Gella Report dot com and she had Watch dot com and yeah, and I get their book The Post American Presidency, President Obama's War on America and stop the Islamization of America. Great talking to you, Thanks for being with us. Hey, we'll take some calls in a minute. One Shawn is the number. Hey, welcome back. It's the Sean Hannity Show. This is Mark Simone here for Sean.

Aside from having his Mi tolve, of course, you need to, you know what, Congress just a little bit to you know, stand behind our president. And aside from that, Yeah, I'm not a big believer in this, Paul Ryan anymore as far as getting things done, as far as making me nervous, you know, yeah, I wonder about the market, and I do have a few things there and I'm wondering if it know, it's like some wind of time. Well, Larry Loves coming up in a few minutes. We'll ask him about the market. It's been way up, way up since the election of Donald Trump, and usually that means a correction is coming. But we'll see. Uh, it's done well. But can I say just a couple of things real quick, Um, Mac from earlier in the show, you got schooled, but you're Democrats, so you don't even know it. I love you. She was great. Yeah, And to be allowed to speak on a show right before and culture I'm going to heaven. Well, you're talking to like fifteen million people right now. Oh my god, she's a warrior and I cannot wait to h to see her take him on. I mean, she's she is right up to it and they don't even know it all right what She'll be with us in a few minutes, Phil, thanks for calling. Uh, yeah, we're gonna talk to Larry Cutler in a minute, and An and Culture will be coming up at the top of the hour. We'll find out the latest on Berkeley. It was off, it's on, it's off. I think it's on now. She's got an attorneys looking into things, so we'll get to all of that coming up. Let's go to Percy in Los Angeles. Hey, Percy, good afternoon. Um Mark, I've got some questions. You know, I've talked to h I've got a lot of friends, A huge Trump supporter, always out been, but I'm starting to not recognize Donald Trump anymore. I mean it seems like every day he was, he's a little bit light on Iran. He's you know, talking to um, you know about the Saudis being our friends with a hobbyists, and uh, I'm not hearing much about the Wall. And I'm no, I'm not alone. I know there's a lot I know I know, but don't worry. Listen, he's been a friend of mine first five years. I've watched him do this. I've watched him negotiate. It's the way he works. He's on your side, he's against you, he's for you, he loves you, he hates you. He does this. It's a negotiating tactic. And it's like you know, in the police, they detectives call you in and they do the good cop, bad cop routine on you. He does it single handedly. He does his own good cop bad cop and it's more just to confuse the opponent. They don't quite know where they stand. He just kind of plays you like a yo yo a little. But in the end he always always gets it done. And now that's what he does sometimes. And then in some negotiations he comes on way too strong, like he's gonna shake everything up. Uh, it's just a it's a tactic that's worked for him, worked for him brilliantly. So uh. And sometimes you'll hear him say something like tariffs and this and that, and uh, you'll get all alarmed. You said, well, that's too much and that's not gonna that's gonna cause me. Don't worry he's a negotiator. These are just opening bids, and in each negotiation he knows how to play the situation. But in the end he always always gets things done. So don't worry. I know, I know you can depend with. Larry Cudler will be with us in a moment. He's been unofficial adviser to Donald Trump. He's got a great book out that we'll talk about. And of course you see him on CNBC. Hey and follow me on Twitter. It's Mark Simone, n Y at Twitter. There a lot of good stuff up there, Mark Simone and why at Twitter? Larry Cublow coming up, and then we'll find out exactly what's going on with a Coulter. She'll be with us at the top of the hour. Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. Some people on Capital Hill believe you can get one of two things next week, a vote on healthcare or a vote on a government funding bill. So my question is which one is more important to you? To have a vote on healthcare or a vote on a bill to keep the government open. Okay, I want to get both. Are you shocked to hear that? And we're doing very well in healthcare. We'll see what happens. But this is a great bill. There's a great plan, and this will be great healthcare. It's evolving. You know, there was never a give up. The press sort of reported there was like give up. There's no give up. We started. Remember it took Obamacare seventeen months. I've really been negotiating this for two months, maybe even less than that because we had a thirty day period where we did lots of other things the first thirty days. But this has really been too months and this is a continuation and the plan gets better and better and better, and it's gotten really really good, and a lot of people are liking it a lot. We have a good chance of getting it soon. I'd like to say next week, but it will be. I believe we will get it. And whether it's next week or shortly thereafter. As far as keeping the government open, I think we want to keep the government open, don't you agree? So yeah, I think we'll get both. Hey, let's turn now. It's Mark Simone by the way for Sean Hannity. Sean will be back Monday. Let's turn to the smartest guy around, Larry Cudlow. Of course you see him on CNBC. By the way. He's written a very important book you should read. It's called JFK and the Reagan Revolution. This will take you through these tax cuts and how JFK used them effectively, how Reagan used them. Very important book to read right now by Larry Cudlow. Larry, how you doing good marks, Thanks very much. Um. Now you are also, of course in the Reagan administration. When you first all got to Washington in those first hundred days, what was it like as far as trying to get everything done? It must have been overwhelming in the very beginning. Well, you know, looking back to it, there were like a couple of major major priorities, you know, not six, not eight really not in some sense, not even three. There were two. One was Reagan had a very bold across the board tax cut, lower marginal tax rates, individuals, corporations, capital gains, whatever. And the second one was to start building up our defense because he was sending strong signals to the old Soviet Union that he didn't want to do business with them, he wanted to overthrow them, and he felt, you know, piece through strength we got built up our own forces which had come to disarray. And be honest with you, there were other things going on, you know, their funding bills and so forth. But when we wrote our own budget, those were the two major priorities, military spending and the lower marginal tax rates to reignite the economy. And when exactly did you get the tax rates done? The tax rates were I think finished in Congress in July of eighty one, and if I can recall properly, the President signed the bill I think in Camp David uh in August as early to mid August, so you know the whole push, I mean mark. In those days, Republicans had the Senate, although a third of the Republican Party opposed reagan supply side tax cuts, so we had to convince the others. But the Democrats had the House, that was the Tip O'Neil House, and Reagan worked tirelessly to get seventy five Democratic votes in the House in order to pass his bill. Was quite remarkable. Well, but it was a simpler time. Had you been burdened with this ridiculous Obamacare, you guys might have had to do something about that right away. Well perhaps so, but you know the way it was done. The big issue then was Social Security. The numbers, the projections, you know, for whatever they're worth. Showed that we were entering a danger period of bankruptcy for Soul Security. So what Reagan did was he appointed a bipartisan commission. Alan Greenspan Republican, Daniel Patrick moynihan Democrat. I believe Lane Kirkland from the Unions of Democrat anyway, I think mark that was started in late eighty two, but I know it was completed by about the spring of eighty three, and it made a number of changes which have kept Soul Security solvent, you know, right up to this day. So we kind of waited on the entitlements. The first priority get you know, get tax rates down because we had no economic growth, make the dollars stronger. Reagan worked with Paul Boker to get the inflation right down and build up d D spending. Those were the major priorities right away. And guess what he got them. Yeah, but healthcare is strangling a lot of businesses. What do you think can happen? Do you think there will be an attempt to get this done very fast? I do. I mean, I'm interested to see now they're publishing the committee print. I don't think it's out yet, but we know a lot about it, and a lot of compromises are being made. They're pretty good compromises, UM, mostly around state rights, you know, federalism, and the compromises essential benefits mandate would be up to the states. Risk pool for the sick would be up to the states, um mandated UM, people with prior illnesses would be put into the states. Medicaid would be put into the states. Now I've also heard, and I can't confirm this, but I've also heard that the Conservative Freedom Caucus in the House has been negotiating with some Senate members, uh to be specific, that Mark Meadows from North Carolina. I believe it is negotiating with Center Susan Collins in UM in Maine. She's more of a moderate. So I think that, uh, you know, I think that's hopeful. I don't want to predict, because you can't predict this stuff that blew up the last time. But it looks like they're making pretty good deals. So we'll see. It's gonna happen fast, yes or no, up or down. Yeah, I don't have a lot of confidence in Paul Ryans getting things done well, you know, without passing judgment on Paul Ryan, who was an old friend of mine going back many many years. Um, I think what you're getting here is an opening. You know, when the House first put its bill on the table, and it was a bill that was okay as the first step, but it had some serious um it had some serious loopholes, that had some serious problems. They didn't really include the conservatives, and in fact, I guess they didn't include some moderates. But the Conservative has heavier weights. And I never understood that that was a mistake John Bayner made. And again Bayner's a friend of mine, he's a great man, but he made that mistake. Try to freeze out the different factions. You can't do that, Mark, So what gives me a hope? I don't want to sound too bullish on this, but now you've got the Conservatives negotiating with the moderates in both the House and the Senate. Ryan is not running the show, um, you know, with handcuffs. And we'll see, we'll see next week will be very interesting over the week after. And you know, you always point out Reagan didn't go try to get everything. What do you used to say, let me go get half now, Depending on which conversation it was, sometimes he'd say give me half a loaf and I'll get the other half later. And sometimes he'd say, um, give me seventy and uh, we're still friends that I can get the other three percent later. The point is Reagan was a dealmaker. I mean, he ran a union, screen actors guild. He was president five terms, if I'm not mistaken. So let's say our tax cuts plan. We didn't get everything we wanted, and we didn't get it as fast as we wanted. It was spread out over three years. I think in economic terms that was not good. But that's what you needed to citically, but he didn't. You're right. He was willing to, you know, make progress and keep going along. Now that's what did not happen um with the first healthcare pass. Secondly, we'll see about tax reform. Well, they may have relied a little too much on Paul Ryan Trump. It knows a smart enough is negotiat you know what you're saying, Maybe he'll take more of the lead in this next round. Well, I think so. I mean the other thing, look, the economy is still very very lackluster, and you're growing at two percent or less first quarter probably coming around one, and you really need this is the piece of bunch of us road in the New York Times yesterday or the day before. Um, you really need to get these large and small business tax cuts on the table mark and bring home to far in cash new investment can be expensed immediately. That I think would be the single biggest trigger for faster economic growth. And I mean it could happen just as soon as the bill is signed. And so we are suggesting that they break off the business tax cuts from the overall bills, separate them out from the individual. We can go after the individual needs a lot of reforms, simplicity, lower rates and so forth. But it's also expensive. I'm not sure it has as much bang for the buck on growth. But go for the business again, large and small, and you'll get this economy moving at three percent. And this is my favorite point. If you take three percent growth, you will get the mother of all pay for us. You will raise about four trillion dollars over ten years above the CBO baseline. So the CBO is saying one percent growth, Okay, we can't do any better. Now, of course we can. If you move the needle for three percent growth, the economy expands, incomes expands, more people working pay more taxes of the American workforce works for a larger small company, and you get about four trillion dollars in extra revenues. So you don't need border taxes, you don't need any vac taxes, you don't need carbon taxes. Just focus on what's in front of you, and you don't necessarily need everything at once. Can you name any case in history where the CBO projection was actually correct, you including by the way, recent history. Um, you know, they scored the Obama spending stimulus. It was eight nine billion dollars. They scored that as promoting three four economic growth over the first three or four years, and of course it never came in that way. It was like one to two. So they you know, we tried this experiment in government spending. The CBO loves government spending. Now we're trying to go back to tax cuts, was haven't really been tried in several decades. As you pointed out, JFK used them effectively, Reagan using effectively. Why not try it, and the CBO is blocking it because they always say tax cuts lose revenues and the deficits grows. Well, my response is not true. The economy grows with new incentives working, saving, investing, and as I say, you could reap as much as four trillion dollars with better growth. That's the key to everything, and I'm optimistic on that. Treasury Secretary Steve the Notion is now talking about dynamic scoring for economic growth. He said it several times in the past week, and in fact, so has um Gary Cone. So it looks like the White House has kind of taking our q on this growth solves all these problems. Well, it's great talking to you. And if if anybody wants to really understand all of this, get Larry Cudlow's book, big bestseller, JFK and the Reagan Revolution. It's a secret history of Well it'll take you through all these tax cuts and how they work and what they've done in the past. Uh must reading JFK and the Reagan Revolution. Larry Cudlow, thanks for being with us. Thank you, Mark as always, all right, take care. Uh now we'll get to and culture a little later on in the program. We'll see what's going on. Berkeley. Is she speaking, not speaking? We get all that. Take some calls in a minute. One nine for one Sean is the number. It's Mark Simone here for Hey, welcome back. It's the Sean Hannity Show. It's Mark Simone here for Sean. He'll be back on Monday, but tonight. Uh. He's actually an israel right now. Tonight he's doing a big special on the Fox News Channel ten o'clock tonight on Hannity Exclusive interview with Israeli Prime Minister b b Net and Yahoo. And as part of the show, they'll take a helicopter ride over the Israeli Palestinian border. Should be a fascinating show tonight at ten o'clock Eastern on the Fox News Channel. Let's take some calls. Let's go to Jim in uh Georgia. Hey Jim, how you doing? Okay? Mark Um, I'll come. I don't hear anymore. Talk about replacing the personal income tax with a national sales tax. That would be fairer because it's based on consumption and you could still keep the corporate text, uh the way it is. And I don't know this. Uh they have that in Europe. You know that va T tax. It's it's just as annoying as the personal income tax. Um. But you gotta you gotta lower the tax rates. Uh. And you don't need to have it. We already have a state sales tax and national sales tax. They'd just be too much. Let's say, to say everybody paid, wouldn't that be the fairest thing. I don't know. If you had a national sales tax, whatever the rate would be would have to be adjusted so that the government would still make the same amount of money. But once you start adjusting rates, it's going to get as complicated as everything else. You know, there's another thing you got to think about. The these futurists and these tech guys that study everything say, at some point the government is going to try to eliminate money. You know what they got, you know, Apple pay in your iPhone and you just hold it up and it pays. Well. At some point, when they get that technology really perfected, they go on, everybody need to pay digitally. You'll just hold your phone up and it will read the code and you'll pay. And at some point they will actually, according to some futurists, the government will stop manufacturing money. There will be nor no more money excepted no more cash. Now. Part of the reason for that is they will then have the most detailed record of everything you've bought every transaction will be recorded by the government. So, and it's already starting ahead in that direction. How many times you're in line at Starbuck it's been This idiot is holding their phone up and I kept can quite read it right and moving it around. But at some point, think about that. If there's no more money, no more cash, it would eliminate a lot of crime because everything is on the record. Then, but I don't know you want the government having a record of every single thing you buy. Hey, coming up in the next hour and Culture will be with us. This will be interesting. There's a fight going on between her and Berkeley. They're trying to silence her. Free speech doesn't seem to be important into the University of California at Berkeley. Uh.

Now, who else would you get to host the Chris Han Show but Chriss Han, he's a democratic strategist. Does a great job there, Chris Han, how you doing. I'm there very tough. You know, I had to pass you on edition and I was fortunately the best Chrissan for the Chrissan Joe, Well, it's a great show. Now let me ask you about the liberals, the Democrats? What the hell is wrong with you people? You know, it's funny, Mark, Like eight years ago, I think you and I had the same exact conversation, except for I was asking, what is up with these Tea party people? The people wear tea bags on their hats. What's wrong with them? This is crazy? We wait. The difference was if you were like a comedian, like you're Jay Leno or whoever you do the monologue, it's somewhere in the monologue. There were three or four Obama jokes and that was it. You watch this, Colbert, The whole monologue is Trump Patriot. Then he sits at the desk and does twenty minutes of Trump Patriot. Then he brings out a guest who hates Trump, and like, the whole show is like a one hour primal scream. There aren't a whole lot of people in the entertainment world that like President Trump. Oh no, there are there are. Oh you've got You've got them so terrified, they're hiding. You can't have ted nugent on every night. But you got a lot of them. You've got tons of them. They're afraid. Yeah, well, I mean, look, I mean it's a it's a time right now where I think the American people are very concerned about the competency of the administration. They are, I mean, not every pole. Even rath Muslin has a hard time tiding it. So Rasmussen, remember approval reading plastered all over every newspaper in the world. I know it's the other day you went over. I can't find the story anywhere. Nobody will print it. That's because nobody believes rass poles, because they're fake oh, when it was definite. Now this hey just saying, okay, listen, he goes. We had this woman, this American woman, charity worker, imprisoned unlawfully in Egypt. Nobody could get her out for years. Trump starts to negotiating, gets the woman released. If this was Obama, every network could break in live to show the plane landing and her getting out and back in America. Where's the coverage? Well, you know, the funny thing is that the Trump administration did two things this week that I'm happy about. One was this test case in Arizona where now veterans can go to CVS, and the other is this woman being released in Egypt. Both though, we're done by people who were holdovers from the Obama administration leading the charge. Now, I'm happy that the President worked on this, and I give him credit for well, we know, in the three years of working on it, the Obama administration could not get But remember the Trump administration still hasn't even appointed a Deputy Secretary of State. These were professional ambassadors and people who held over from the Obama You remember, President Trump spoke directly to the Egyptian president and got this thing going. President Trump, to his credit took the advice of those professional ambassadors and talked to the Egyptian president and did get it done. Oh yeah, I can picture this the saying, here's what you say, Mr Trump? Okay, should I just say it like this? He's the greatest negotiating in the world. I think the reason it didn't get done in three years, he's the greatest negotiation that negotiating the world. I'm looking at that Obamacare replacement pill that he tried to negotiate a couple of weeks ago. Didn't go out go so well? Did it? No? I think, And as we've been saying, I blame that all on Paul Ryan. And as I said in the last segment, I think this time you'll see Donald Trump lead the charge. No more. Paul Ryan. Well, let's see what happened there. You know what, you and I have plenty to talk about. But I don't think we'll be talking about that passing. Okay, But explain to the normal people out there how this is a good strategy for Democrats to come back to act like they're having a nervous breakdown, to act completely hysterical day and night seven everywhere. How's this helping? Mark? I've been coming on the show on Hannity Show, mean you, I mean the New York Times, of Washington Post, the View everything. I am a Democrat, a progressive who goes on on Fox News. I recall being there eight years ago and the hysteria over Obama. Was he an American? You know that whole thing. Okay, boy, that's a good example. That birth certificate stuff might have been a little crazy. But you would see that in the paper. A little crazy. Well, okay, but wait, you see that now we wait, wait, mark one more thing. At one point, though, we just learned yesterday that Jeff Sessions doesn't agree that Hawaii is part of the United States. So maybe that's where it came from. Oh no, but you would see that birth certificate stuff maybe once or twice a week somewhere. This crazy Trump stuff, Steve Bannon's stories, it's fifty stories today in the Washington Post, of New York Times, it's everywhere. Never lets up. Well, you know how the Trump's administration could get over that, They could actually start accomplishing things in the best interest in the American people. If they did that, you wouldn't have all this palace entry talk. Well, if they did accomplish something you'd never read about it, like getting rid of this, getting this Egyptian woman freed, or There's been a lot of things that come also. You know, they also part of part of the problem here market. There's a lot of people within the White House, within the president's inner circle, who are talking to the press and pointing fingers at each other. It might be part of the President's management style to play people off each other, fight for you know, a higher position in in in in an administration, or higher status within his inner circle. You know, a lot of that could go right back to President Trump himself. And that's why you've seen a lot of these palace intrigue stories. Well, I think it's also fear. The New York Times, Lester Holt, Washington Post all this bias media. You will run five million stories on Steve Bannon, as if anybody in the middle of America is worrying about Steve Bannon. But when people from within the Oval Office staff are talking to the New York Times in the Washington Post about how Steve Bannon is on the outs, well, you know it's something that a reporter is going to write right only because they want to hurt Trump, and they live in the bubble. They're so deep in the bubble they don't know. There's no one in America I don't know wondering about Steve Bannon. I don't know that they want to hurt Trump. I think that people. I think there's a lot of people out there who hurt things. Trump said on the campaign trail, likewise, that we're very you know, maybe even somewhat progressive, like transportation infrastructure improvements, not being you know, you know, a certain way on certain things, you know. And now they see Steve Bannon kind of pushing him really to the far right. And I think people want to help see Bannon get kicked right out the door. And I think that's going to happen sooner rather than later. I don't think Steve Bannon could be described as far right. He's certainly for the working man. He's not an anti Semite. In fact, he's been just the opposite all his life. Now, you know, I read I used to read Breitbart dot Com in preparation for somebody interviews, and you know, anti semitic. It's never been an anti Semitic thing. There's never been an anti Semitic thing ever in Brightbart. First of all, everybody that works at Brightbart is Jewish. It's run by an Orthodox Jew. Can I take you back to two thousand fourteen the Vatican Conference where all the greatest speakers in the world spoke. The speech that stole the show was Bannon speech. It was a plea against anti Semitism. Yeah, there were headlines about I'm dropping the name of particular renegade jew is at the headline you're talking about, okay, but you always forget, you always forget to point out it was by a Jewish writer who was attacking another Jewish writer for not being for not being I know it's desperately important for you to cut me off here. It was a Jewish writer attacking another Jewish writer for not being pro Israel enough. It was the opposite of an anti Semitic head Well, you know, you know, as the grandmandson of a Holocaust survivor, I'm always a little concerned when somebody refers to somebody as a renegade Jew. But you're not concerned that somebody was being anti Israel. And this guy, the writer of that headline was David Horowitz, by the way, who was attacking the other Jewish writer for not being pro Israel. You know, they say in Israel, Bright Bart is the most pro Israel site in the world, even more so than the Jerusalem Post. So why make up this anti Semitic that's the most ridiculous thing in the world. Yeah, well you know that that that rag was not taken seriously until President Trump took him seriously, and the minute he kicks man into the curb, it won't be taken seriously. Again, well, it's not the prestigious publication like the Fington Post, which of course we must take very seriously. It's pretty good. I read, I read, I read. I read four or five papers a day. Okay. I read the Wall Street Journal, I read the New York Times. I read News Day because I live on Long Island. I like news Day. It's pretty good. It's a good paper. Uh. You know, I love when they have best hot dog in Long Island and the best sushi. Find those hot dogs, So you know that's the thing. You know, that's why I read it. But you know, it is what it is. And the website I like to trust is Politico. That's the one I go to for my real news about what's going on political and Chris Han. You must be a great guest because I didn't realize what time it is. They just had a yell in my ear, Hey, we're out of time, So it flew by. Everybody listening to Chris Han show. What's your website Christopher Han dot com And you find me on Twitter at Christopher Han. Thanks for having me, all right, check it out, hey, And and Culture will be with us at the bottom of the hour. That'll be pretty good. It's Mark Simone here for Sean. Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity. Sean will be back on Monday, but he's in Israel right now. And then tonight he's doing a big special Fox News Channel ten o'clock Eastern exclusive interview with bb Net and Yahoo and together they'll take in a helicopter ride down to the Israeli Palestinian borders. I don't miss this special tonight at ten o'clock on the Fox News Channel. Uh, you know, it's a is it a hundred days yet for Donald Trump? It's close to it. It's just about a hundred days. Next week is the hundred days. Now you know what that means. That means the traditional honeymoon period is over, and he the press might start getting negative about him. So I'm just preparing you for that. They might start writing negative articles after the traditional honeymoon period is over. Do you see this article? All these articles? How could he have Ted Nugent and Kid Rock in the White House? What kind of thing is this for a president? Let him in the Oval Office? You see who President Obama had in the Oval Office, every crazy rap star, every that this was wonderful, but Ted Nugent. You can't do it. They make up these articles. You see the one about after the meat in the dinner with the president of China. All these articles. How did Ivanka Trump get trademarks for her jewelry in China? What did this have to do with the Chinese president? And you know that company that she runs, and every jewelry company they get a hundred trademarks a month, all the time, everywhere. It's the most normal thing in the world. To get a trademark. All you gotta do is get a trademark attorney, file the form. All some bureaucrat checks if nobody else has a trademark on it. You get the trade markets. It's not even anything to debate. I mean that's all they do. They just it's like a patent. They check to see if anybody else has a patent on this. If it's brand new and no one else has it, you get the patent. What do you think they do with the trademarks? Send it to the president of country and they have a meeting to decide should you get it should you not. It's automatic as long as no one else is holding a trademark. So you see these articles, how did she get to trademarks after meeting with the president of China? They never point out that she's gotten five in sixty trade marks before the meeting with the president of China. Do we have time to take a call? Uh? Real fast, Let's go to uh Patty, Ventura, California. Hey, Patty, Patty, we only got a few seconds. Oh did you hang up? She just hung up? How do you like that? We don't even have time to take a call. I go out of my way and she hanged No. She probably probably got cut off, but we got a lot coming up and Coulter Berkeley, Now, this is crazy for any college to deny free speech. That's the whole idea of going to college to learn all different things. Different points of view here, different speakers. How could they deny somebody uh the right to speak if they have an opposing point of view? Wouldn't that be the first person you'd want to book? What's the latest on that? We'll get to and Culter. She'll be with us next and we'll find out all about that. Hey, follow me on the Twitter, Mark Simone, n Y at Twitter it's Mark Simone and why at Instagram or you just go to my website Mark Simone dot com and sign up for everything there now, don't forget tonight at ten a special Hannity Tonight attend exclusive interview B B Nut and Yahoo.

Exclusive interview with the Israeli Prime Minister B B Nut and Yahoo and then together they're going to take a helicopter ride on the show over the Israeli Palestinian border. And it's tonight ten Eastern Fox News Channel with US right now. And Coulter, have you read her book in Trump We trust? This is the book on Trump. And of course go to her website and Culter dot com you get a column and get everything there. And you've been reading about this, she was going to speak at Berkeley, that she's not speaking at Berkeley. Then she is, then she isn't. It's been the whole battle and she's on the line now. And Coulter, how you doing? Fantastic? How are you? Mark Simone? Very good? Wouldn't it be better if you didn't speak at Berkeley? It's but if they just had one point of view and that's it, it makes life simpler. Confusing people with different sides of an issue, that's too much. I know it's true, and I think I think that the Berkeley administrators are just smarter than James Madison was. And he forgot to include an asterisk free speech unless it's speech the state doesn't like. Well, you know, you're laughing, but this one side. They made those work in the Soviet Union for many years. It's worth well in Cuba, Uh, you're laughing, but the communist China, No, it's true. And now Um, we are. Our lawyers submitted a letter today running through all of their their violations of the First Amendment, just so far, and that's before I show up on on Thursday and get arrested. Um, but just so far their First Amendment violations, saying that we'll go to court on Monday, UM to demand injunctive relief if if they don't find a place to schedule my talk on thur day. UM. Well right, but before I called into you, we got the letter back from Berkeley and and apparently this is this is something that cannot be done. Um. Look, it's one thing to to, you know, send students arrange rockets into outer space to be beneath the sea. But on Berkeley campus it is impossible to schedule room for a ninety minute lecture. Wow, at this University of Berkeley, do they receive government funding? Oh boy, they sure do, lots from the federal government. And of course this is the University of California. UM, this is a public institution. I mean, even a private college receives boatloads on boatloads of federal aid, not only through the students, which UM counts as and that allows the federal government to pull strings by university of California get so much money from from research grants, and it actually is a state, a state institution, so you could not have a or case of a First Amendment violation. And needless to say, UM, the First Amendment has been has been well litigated over the past two hundred years. UM. And these are all UM, just blinding principles of First Amendment law. UM. For example, you cannot Vincent A. Fox, the corrupt former president of Mexico who is constantly cursing at the President of the United States, UM and denouncing him. He spoke earlier this week at Berkeley. UM. He got a room. He wasn't asked to reschedule and have his entire retinue, you know, rebook flights. They managed to find a room for him and provide a safe environment. My speech is actually the follow up to UM. And it isn't just the College Republicans, UM. I forget the name of the other there's a nonpartisan group that was spearheaded inviting me. I think they were embarrassed about what happened to Ma Wo UM. And so you know, in the spirit of debate, they had UM a pro mass immigration speaker last week. UM. Former I think Obama official, maybe Clinton official. And then I was supposed to well, I will be speaking um, perhaps from from the steps of Sproul Hall like Mario Savio um um. So I was designated to speak two weeks later in response, well again the first the first part of the debate with the liberal speaker went off without a hitch. She spoke in the evening. Um. But no, they have all kinds of different requirements and obligations for any conservative speaker. This is now the third time a conservative speaker they've tried to prevent speaking. Um. You know what's funny is and Culter is like one of the highest paid speakers in the country. Normally people write an enormous check to have her come speak. Here's a college that doesn't want to hear it. Well, they'll let me speak from a hot air balloon. The week they suggested first they were sometime in September. Sometimes said well, that's after you know, all of their other unconstitutional restrictions and require arenaments and ruses they put on on my speech that you know normally conservatives speakers say, well, look, no, you don't require this of liberal speakers. This is you're violating my constitution rights. All to make sure no one comes to hear the speech. So, for example, they Berkeley's insistent that conservative speakers only speak in the middle of the day when kids are in class. We can't give a normal evening speech. But I wanted to speak. I've I have, I have a nice little speech prepared. I like speaking to college students. I like taking question and answer. Um, it's fun. So I said, okay, but what is their argument that it might cause violence? Or well, how would somebody making a speech cause violence? Um? First of all, um, just um to give you the boring law. Um, you are not not allowed to to the What they're doing is the cops only enforce the law if someone stops tries to stop a liberal speaker. If a conservative speaker is there and rides break out, the cops in Berkeley stands down. They are on video being you know, telling people as as as kids are getting beaten up in front of them, saying, um, talked to the chief of police. We were told to stand down. We were told to do nothing. Um do they're needless to say? They're plenty of of of court cases on this, and no, the cops cannot cannot only arrest protesters of a particular point of view, which is exactly what Berkeley has done, UM has done twice now, UM. But moreover that press conference, I don't know if you saw it yesterday. Then the captain of the Berkeley Police they're saying, well, there might be crime. What what are we gonna do? I don't know, call a cop? Isn't that your job? Are those things hanging from your belt? Do you know which end of the cup? Is that a glue gon, a reel? Don? It's the craziest thing, is like a Monty Python sketch, having a cop say we can't do this because people could break the law. See, that's why we have cops, sir. You know sometimes I watched that crazy Rachel Madhouse show and I don't like what she's saying, but it doesn't make me want to go beat somebody up or break windows. And if you did, I think a cop would arrestue. But that's the point they don't in Berkeley, adding to I mean, there's so many defendants to this UM prospective lawsuit we have here. You know, these crazy colleges, nobody's allowed to speak or say. You know you always hear about years ago. Uh, this senator was the debating champ at Harvard. He was the debating champ at Yale. How are they allowed to debate if you can't give the other side? No, that's right. Well that's why I've I mean, even before this latest um insularity and fascistic attitude has swept American universities, and it is worse than it's been before. I've never been sought from speaking at any American college or university. Never, never, never. Um. You know, sometimes protesters come, usually at the better colleges with the higher s A T. Scores. They asked questions, and it's really fun because they are smart kids, and I like, you know they I don't know that they've changed my mind, but they might have gotten me to modify a position or something. They've certainly gotten me to admit things are jokes, So I think they should have recognized that. In any event, Um, It's always been true, and I've always said this. You could pluck any college republican off any college campus in America, put them on TV or put her on TV UM right now with Rachel Maddow, Um Chuck Todd. She could win the debate. But but college liberals, and I'm not saying that that they're stupid. I'm sure they have reasonably high i Q s A and or whatever the average. It's that they don't have any practice, no one, They've never had to defend anything. They are really being let down by their educations. They can't argue their way out of a paper bag and just come up with these stupid cliches. Now they they seem to be just being incentralized with this foot stamping and calling any opinion. They don't like hate speech. I mean it's crazy. So, uh, who's that talking to today? Somebody very smart and important and they were talking about you and they said she's a warrior, she's the bravest person. Uh yes, but um, you don't say to yourself. Sometimes it's just not worth it. Let me stay home. Well, I want to give my speech. Yeah, I think it's got a good speech. And okay, I haven't technically written it yet. And if we can get for a cart to force them to give me a room to give my siege as I say, otherwise, I think I may give it in the University of California Chancellor's office. Janet napolitanol. I think she would enjoy hearing it so Now, what's the exact latest. Your lawyer is going to do something on Monday? Um. Yes, and actually the letter came through right before UM I had to go on radio, so I haven't gotten the details. But the gist of it seems to be we can't keep her safe. I know, call a cop. God, can you mean it sounds like I mean, that's like the Twilight Zone. Somebody's gonna make a speech. We can't keep her safe. Yeah, but it's even better when it's coming from as it was yesterday at the press conference, a cop sitting in his uniform with a gun on his hip. I mean, the men working for these two chiefs of police, the one for campus, the Campus of Berkeley and one for the town of Berkeley. Um. The rank and file police must be so humiliated. I mean their kids are watching on t what Hey, what do you do for a living? Dad? I arrest lawbreakers, but apparently you don't. You can't. Well, how come when there's like a fifteen thousand student George Soros paid for march they can police that that. That's okay? It is viewpoint discrimination, absolutely unconstitutional. To be discriminating against speech this way, It's unbelievable. And this is not just University California at Berkeley, but there's other colleges that are doing this. And we shouldn't immediately have all of government funding cut off. Yes, yes they should. And somebody should take this up. I mean, somebody should get the government stop putting any money into as long as their censorship there. Yes they should. I'd also suggest some, um, you know, have some minor but reasonable measures, like having Donald Trump call out the National Guard to let me give my speech. Yeah, you know, a President Kenny had to send the National Guard to take James Mayor's to school. No, I know, I know, No you cannot. Actually, it is a beautiful analogy when when they come back and say, oh, no, we're not interfering with free speech. We just have all these various arbitrary and unreasonable requirements. It is like the Democrat southern sheriff saying, oh no, no, we we we we're letting black people vote. They just have to name the first eleven presidents in alphabetical order. No, you can't input arbitrary, very unreasonable requirements on someone's exercise of a constitutional right. And this is a constitutional right. The College Republicans and this nonpartisan group UM Berkeley something or other. I really got to get their names since it was their idea and they're not getting any credit for this, UM. But anyway, they invited me to speak and it's their First Amendment rights. Hey, you know, you might have been kidding, but it's very serious. In the early sixties, troops had to be used all over the country to integrate schools. And I don't think it's a bad idea. Send out the army, the National Guard and troops to allow free speech in schools. Yes, it's a good idea. It's a good cause. Well, everybody, go to and culture dot com and sign up there. You can get our latest column. If you haven't gotten the book and Trump we trust a big bestseller, go get it and uh and culture dot com. Course, follow and culture on Twitter that you'll be posting all week in the latest on what's happening. Right. Yes, I'll send out this latest letter. I tweeted the letter, the letter sent by our attorney harm Meat Dell and UM this morning. Incidentally, UM an immigrants UM. And yet in one generation she picked up the whole concept of freedom of speech and the rule of lash. But Berkeley administrators can't do how long has Berkeley been around? They can't pick it up in a hundred years. Well, okay, Following culture on Twitter and get the latest on this throughout the weekend. And Culter, thanks for being with us. Good to talk to you. Mark, take care what a situation. It's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannah
