Published Feb 22, 2019, 11:00 PM

Senator Rick Scott of Florida, is a businessman and an entrepreneur, he has proven himself time and again as a man of great foresight when it comes to the economy. Now with so many in Congress looking to obstruct the President regarding his efforts to declare a national emergency, Senator Scott is supporting the President. He knows that open borders are unsafe for Americans, and the cost will bring our nation and it’s taxpayers to their knees with the financial burden.

Another work week hopefully in the can for most of you, even though I'm not looking forward to the twenty five hours. So here's my here's my itinerary. Do Hannity tonight, then head on over to JFK for a red eye with a stop over, and by the time I land in Vietnam, by the time i'm wheels up to the time I'm wheels down in Hanoi, twenty five hours, I mean, it's nuts. It's exactly good morning. We'll be saying. Now when we get there, it's gonna be like Singapore. We'll be doing the radio show three am in the morning and we'll be doing the TV show nine am in the morning. There there time you know, obviously, same time we are on now wherever you're listening. But I know, oh, Michael Khan's testifying on Thursday. Okay, So, and well, the Marva Mueller Report. The only thing that'll happen, if anything, next week, is that the Attorney General will receive the report. There's not going to be one thing that is released to anybody. While the President of the United States of America is in a high stakes negotiation to denuclearize the entire Korean peninsula. I can guarantee you that, but of course there might be other breaking news, and if there is, we of course we'll cover all that's happening around the world as we always do. Doesn't really matter where we are, that's our job anyway. So we'll be we'll be on the air next week. We have an exclusive interview with the President after his summit with Kim Jong un, and as far as I know, we may be the only interview, because I don't think there's a lot of time on the President's schedule. When I checked him at the press office earlier today, I'm the only interview scheduled, So this is it. So we're really excited about it and look forward to getting there and reporting from there. You know, we got a lot out of the first deal. What do we get? You know, our memories are short. You know people, you know, liberals are selling socialism on a worse scale than what Obama gave us guaranteed to ruin the economy, and there are people thinking, well, wait a minute, we're gonna have a guaranteed job, guaranteed sustaining wage, and a family and medical leave and vacations, retirement security, and we're also gonna get oh wait, college is included for free, and healthy food is guaranteed. Who's gonna pick out the menu? And guaranteed healthcare but you can't have private healthcare. And housing is approved too, that's included free. Yeah, we're gonna end you know, an environment free of monopolies, which means state takeover of industry like the energy industry, not a good idea, and economic security for all if you're unable to work, even if you're unwilling to work. Oh, and we're gonna rebuild every house in America. And cows they're gonna have to go on Just warning you, flatulence and cows is a big, big, big problem for the environment. They're gonna have to go. We might not be able to get rid of cows within the ten year period, but they're going same with airplanes. They're going to and we will have no Every single car is going to be electric. In other words, there will be no oil and gas production, none, zero, and that would be their vision for ten years. Now. I want to just tell you something as we get going, because it proves what I've been saying for a long time about energy. You know the fact that America, for the first time in seventy years, is now not only energy independent, we're an exporter of energy and other words. We produce every day more oil and natural gas than Russia, than the Saudiast, than any other country on Earth. We have more resources in terms of natural gas, oil, coal than any country on the face of the Earth, and more than the entire Middle East combined. How do you think all these guys got so wealthy? You know, people that we've been buying products from that A lot of them hate our guts and I don't trust a one of them, including the Saudias, and their record are funny. The Saudias donate to Clinton and liberals and they buy their silence amazing with twenty five million dollars to a foundation. Combine, you know you're not going to criticize their horrific treatment of women, killing innocent people, gaze and lesbians because of their sexual orientation. They kill them, persecuting Christians and Jews. You can't build a temple, you can't build a church, of course not. And you'll take their money. I don't want their money. I don't want their oil either, I want Americans building it. So anyway, the Daily Caller, you know, put it all together in a great piece today, you know, is there Now We're now on the verge of the single, the single greatest potential of wealth creation in American history. And there's never been a country, a system of governance that has ever created more opportunity and more wealth for more people than this one. And they want to upend it and destroy it at the exact pivotal moment when we're about to if we can get our act together completely here dominate the lifeblood of all business and every country on this planet. And that's energy, that's natural gas, oil and coal. And where where it look at this news that just came out, you know, the President because of deregulation. President because he is allowing the pipelines to be built, Da CODA pipeline, the XL pipeline, all that opening up and more. Well. Ending the week of February fifteenth, crude output in the United States, according to the Energy Information Administration's report, well, it jumped more than one point seven million barrels per day compared to the same time last year. We're now producing twelve million barrels a day. That means they can't control the prices like they used to. That means there's more oil on the market, which means gas is cheaper for all of us, and heating your home is cheaper and us. By the way, natural gas is a clean burning gas. I bought a van when I was really poor one point in my life, if I was a contractor, a former was a formerly owned van of the Provident Gas Company. They ran that van on natural gas, then they transitioned it back to gasoline, and at some point I bought it for two hundred bucks, the best two hundred bucks I ever spent. That engine was the best engine I ever had. No rebuilds, nothing, just changed the brakes to a tune up once in a while. That's all that truck ever needed. And I made money because I had that truck. Anyway, So we're now on the verge of literally being not just energy independent, but now being the biggest energy producer and biggest exporter of energy in the world. Somebody said in this article, the President has awakened a sleeping American energy giant. Remember what happened when we were partnering with some of these energy companies. You know, you live in another state. They needed workers so bad, which is gonna happen soon, that they were paying to train truck drivers for one hundred plus grand a year and give you a place to stay. Well for somebody making forty thousand dollars a year. That's the difference between owning a house and not owning a house. That's the difference between buying a new truck and buying a use truck. That's between you know. That's that's a difference between going to Disney when your kids have seven you'll hate it, but they'll love it, and not going It's it's it's pivotal. Everybody will benefit, but they want to take get rid of it all. By the way, eighty three percent of electric in the US has made with fossil fuels, in nuclear Even if we used electric cars, they're powered by fossil fuels. But that's just a side note. By the way, it's snowing in Vegas and Los Angeles this week. Whoop ce daisy, global warming, no climate change. We can't say global warming. Can't say that when it's snowing in places it doesn't hardly ever snow anyway. Let me just look, this is what's happening and evolving in this country. The Democratic Party that has always believed these things now has a group of newly elected people that are just verbalizing the agenda that they would never speak of, but always believed it was an agenda that they viewed as well would make them unelectable. But they decide things that they could never get done legislatively, never get done at the ballot box. Why do you think liberals want to stack the courts with liberal activist judges because that's how they implement the same agenda. This is what they've wanted to do for a long time, because this is where their mindset is. You know, you think about the proposals medic care for all, Kamala, Bernie, so many others. That's thirty three trillion in ten years. And by the way, no more private health insurance. Wow, how did it work out? Keep your doctor plan and save money. What happens when they screw that up, which is inevitable guaranteed one hundred percent, Well, then there's no private insurance available for you. Why do you think people from Canada single payer are constantly coming to the US for medical treatment, and even Great Britain with their nih national Institutes of health. Well, if you're above the life expectancy age, I don't think we're gonna give you that hip replacement knee replacement. Why because I live too long? Excuse me for living. And you know, then think of the seventies percent plus tax rate that many are proposing a Casio Cortez and others are agreeing with, or the wealth tax of Elizabeth Warren. And of course that means you page your taxes. But if you save too much, they're gonna come back and get even more money. You know. Now the latest as you have Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, you know now they're saying that they are supporting reparations for African Americans. How much is that going to cost? And this sugget it keeps getting so absolutely out of control, but they're exposing who they are and that you know, America is gonna have a choice if you really, really, deep in your heart belief that we're gonna rebuild every house, get rid of airplanes, high speed trains, no more cows because of the flatulence, and you really believe their promises of a job with a family sustaining wage and family medical leave and vacation and retirement security and free college and free, affordable, adequate housing, and economic security for all, and high quality health care for all. If you leave it, you're buying into a lie bumper, stickers, slogans, and platitudes. It will destroy the wealth of this nation almost instantaneously. The impact of any implementation of this is going to be felt immediately. Every one of these ideas has been tried and proven to be failures. The only wealth system, wealth creating system is the liberty freedoms that are offered in America. Incentive reward, risk reward, freedom to take your God given talents and produce goods and services the people want, need, and desire, and you benefit because you're providing a service for your fellow human beings. And yes, you make a profit. Get rid of that. It's over. I really worry about this country more than I ever have. Smoking is not about politics, It's about people. There are thirty four million Americans that smoke. For me, Jewel was a game changer because you switch to jewel, It's simple, it's satisfying and no more smell. I watch people all the time they run outside and the freezing coal you can be grabbing their cigarette. Well, with Jewel, you'll take a quick puff and you're good. That's it. Now. Jewel is designed which smokers in mind. From its form to technology, it's easy to use, no buttons, no switches, and the goal of Jewel is to impact the lives of adults smokers by providing a satisfying alternative. Switched to Jewel, you'll wish you had done it a long time ago.

All right, as we roll along, Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred nine four one, Shawn, if you want to be a part of the program. You don't believe me about the cows. You know nobody believes me. All right, let's play Alexandria Casio Cortez on the farting cows in the Green New Deal. Remember Spartacus was the first Cow's got We've got to be get rid of cows. Listen. So my Twitter mentions, I'm getting a lot of references about cow farts, and I think that's a reference to your Green New Deal. Ye, can you explain that for us? Yes, in the deal, what we talk about is, I mean, and it's it's true, is that we need to take a look at factory farming. You know, period, it's wild. And so it's not to say you get rid of agriculture. It's not to say we're going to force everybody to go vegan or anything crazy like that, but it's to say, listen, we gotta address factory farming. Maybe we shouldn't be eating a hamburger for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, like let's keep it riding. Yeah, I mean, but um, but we have to take a look at everything, and what we need to realize is that climate change is about every choice that we make in our lives. In their original production of their overview in the Green New Deal and their own frequently asked questions, you know, they actually say that we set a goal to get to net zero rather than zero emissions in ten years because we aren't sure that we're gonna be able to fully get rid of farting cows. And airplanes that fast. But that's the goal, and it's breathtaking to me. High speed trains. Uh, what are we gonna be pedaling when we need to get to Los Angeles? Um? Or we're gonna get getting a little box Apreus the electric car that nobody wants otherwise would be selling like hotcakes. We're gonna take a sailboat to Europe. Okay, I'll be there in a couple of months. See, you soon can't use an engine outboard there. How are we gonna fly to Asia? How are we gonna get there? You're gonna take the high speed rail to Australia Express. I can't wait. And how's that going to be over the water or under the water? We'll continue, all right. The President just started a press conference seemingly impromptu, or at least invited the media into the Oval office. Let's dip in. I think we both feel that way. I think we both feel that there's a very good chance that the deal will happen. Troops in Syria, why are you reversing course? I'm not reversing course. I have done something that nobody else has been able to do in another short period of time, like hours, you'll be hearing hours and days you'll be hearing about the Caliphate it defeated. Nobody's been able to say that. That doesn't mean there aren't some very bad people walking around and strapping on bombs and all of these things. But we've done a job that nobody else has been able to do. I heard Lindsey Graham does and congratulating me on having defeated the you know, the caliphated. Frankly, I'm getting a lot of congratulations. At the same time, we can leave a small force along with others in the force, whether it's NATO troops or whoever it might be, so that it doesn't start up again. And I'm okay, it's a very small, tiny fraction of the people we have, and a lot of people like that idea, and I'm open to ideas. But the two thousand and five hundred people that we've had there will be going to different parts of the world. They may be going over to Iraq, where we have a very powerful base based on the cost billions of dollars to build, frankly, and that we'll be using. But we have had tremendous success in defeating the Caliphate, and now everybody's admitting I did more the last three or four weeks than people have done in years, and it's been very successful. But we want to make sure it stays that way. Yes, but the trade deal. Haven't a lot of progress on the tech transfer. You want to talk about the transfer tex Yeah, I'll let Bob answer that. The answer is yes. It is one of the structural issues. It has to be done, probably, and we've made a lot of progress in it. So whoever told you we were and just didn't know what they were talking about? Mister? Don't you condemned the North the North Carolina election fraud? This is a big story. Republican candidate is calling for a new election. Why have you not condemned that? Given you can get an other kind of Well, I condemn any election fraud. And when I look at what's happened in California with the votes, When I look at what happened, as you know, there was just a case where they found a million fraudulent votes. When I look at what's happened in Texas, excuse me, excuse me. When I look at what's happened in Texas, when I look at that catastrophe that took place in Florida where the Republican candidates kept getting less and less and less and less. Unfortunately, Rick Scott and Ron ended up winning their election, but it was disgraceful what happened there. So I look at a lot of different places all over the country. I condemned any vote a fraud of any kind, whether it's a Democrat or Republican. But when you look at some of the things that happened in California in particular, when you look at what's happened in Texas with all of those votes that they recently found were not exactly properly done, I condemn all of it. And that includes North Carolina if anything. You know, I guess they're going to be doing a final report, but i'd like to see the final report. But any form of election fraud I condemn. Meeting with President and you expect to have that in Marla probably at Mara Lago, probably fairly soon during the month of March. Bob, you have a date, Steve, you have a date. We're planning with your schedules. Okay, so we have two schedules and we'll be planning them with the schedule. Lawyer, client, But you know, he's taken his own chances, considering well, ZT paid a big fine of one point two billion dollars, which nobody's ever even heard of before, And we want everybody to compete. And I guess it'll be somewhat of a subject that we're talking about here about we'll be talking about it. We may or may not include that in this deal, the Huawei and Zta. We're going to be discussing all of that during the course of the next couple of weeks, and we'll be talking to the US attorneys, we'll be talking to the Attorney General. But we'll be making that decision right now. It's not something that we're discussing with you on the emergency and oh, I think they'll stick here. Everybody knows we need border security, we need a wall. I think it's a very bad subject for the Democrats. We need a wall. We've apprehended more people than we have in many many years apprehended, meaning we've gotten with a wall, we wouldn't even have to apprehend them if we had the proper structure. It's costing us a lot of money. With the military. We have a lot of military there. We have tremendous border control and border security there we have. I'll tell you what, the people of border security, people of ICE, the law enforcement generally speaking, have done an incredible job at the border. We have caravans heading up and we're able to head out the caravans. We've done a great job. But if we had the water would be much easier, and frankly, it would be a job that would be perfecto and it would cost actually ultimately a lot less money. Okay, what puts you from Tanna dating yesterday that the US would not block out? All right, I'm hardly be more technology. He turns them back to your sixties. What do you mean, well, I'd like to have all companies be able to compete. I don't want to artificially block people out based on excuses or based on security. I don't want to have a security problem. I'm talking about everybody, really concluded, but I'm talking about everybody. I don't want to use artificial blocking. We want to have Grade five G. Ultimately that's going to morph into six GEN, and probably six G will be obsolete in about two months. The way it's going, you know, the way that the whole world moves, but sixty at some point in the future will be obsolete. But I want to have competition with China, fair competition. I don't want to block out anybody if we can help it. Now, if there's going to be a security reason or something that we have no choice, but that is one of the things we'll be discussing today. We want to have open competition. We've always done very well in open competition. Of your officials mentioned that there was a deal on currency. Can you explain to us about that. Well, we'll let you know at through appropriate time, but we have a deal on currency and currency manipulation. Yes. Will you definitely veto that resolution that was introduced today that would block your national emergency if it passes on the wall, Yes, will I veto it? One hundred percent. One hundred percent. And I don't think it survives a veto. We have too many smart people that want border security, so I can't imagine a good survival vitail, but I will veto it. Yes, yeast. You know I stopped paying Pakistan the one point three billion dollars that we were paying that in the meantime, we may set up some meetings with Pakistan. Pakistan was taking very strong advantage of the United States under other presidents, and we were paying Pakistan one point three billion a year. I ended that payment to Pakistan because they weren't helping us in a way that they should have. And honestly, we've had we've developed a much better relationship with Pakistan over the last short period of time than we had. But I did. I ended the payment. We were paying Pakistan one point three billion dollars a year. I ended that about nine months ago. A lot of people don't know that, but I ended it nine months ago. I but what are you talking about? What are you what are you trying to refer to? You have to speak up like Kenyan. Yeah, that's right now. It's a terrible thing going on right now between Pakistan and India. Is a very very bad situation, and it's a very dangerous situation between the two countries. And we would like to see it stopped. A lot of people were just killed and we want to see it stopped. We're very much involved in that. Yes, if that's what you're referred to. No, India is looking at something very strong, and I mean India just lost almost fifty people and with an attack, so I can understand that. Also but we're talking, and a lot of people are talking. But it is a very very delicate balance going on right now. There's a lot of problems between India and Pakistan because of what just happened in Kashmir. Are you talking about Kashmir? Yeah, in Kashmir, it's very dangerous. Yes, please pofect. Well, we're not doing anything right now. We may or may not put that in the trade agreement. We may be discussing it, but we'd only do that in conjunction with the Attorney General of the United States because that is a matter that is outside of what we're doing. So we do that with the Attorney General if we do anything, and I guess there's a question as to whether or not that's being included in the agreement. Yeah, go ahead. Pulling out of a New York I think it's a big loss for New York City. I think it's a big loss. I think it's if you look at the deal, the deal was not a great deal from the standpoint of they could have made a better deal than that, a much better deal. But still I think it's a loss for New York City. And the three billion dollars wasn't a check it was a form of taxes over a period of time that now they'll never see because you know, they were they were going to take in a lot of jobs. They were going to take in a lot of taxes. So I think it's a big loss for New York City. It's a kind of thinking that our country is going to on the left, on the radical left. But ultimately it's not good for jobs and it's not good for the economy. But I think it was a big loss for New York City. I come from New York City. I love New York City. I think it was a big loss for New York City. Yes, pretty griefs. They're on a coastar member who was arrested for threatening Democrats and other members. I'm actually getting a very final briefing and a very complete briefing in about two hours after the shots on this. I think it's a sham. Yeah, I think it's a very sad thing and when a thing like that happens, and I've expressed that, but I'm actually getting a very complete briefing in about two hours. You think, are you very responsibility from honoring your language when it comes to that, No, I don't. I think my language is very nice, Yes, China from China. Sure, if conflict have been one year, not negotiating going on so much? What do you think? Who are you with in China? People in China, people's daily and then what do you think of the cooperation? Is deal a good solution, great cooperation? We have great cooperation both ways with China, and a lot of good things are happening. I mean, I think you see that so many people every day they are going to make a deal. They aren't going to make a deal. They don't know, they have no idea. It's fake news, you know, it's one of those things. Do they have fake news in China? I think so. But it's a question are they going to make a deal? Are they? I think we have a very good chance to make a deal. But both parties want to make it a meaningful deal. We don't want to make a deal that doesn't do I can speak for the Vice Premiere, I can speak for President she I can speak for myself. Both parties want to make this a real deal. We want to make it a meaningful deal, not a deal that's done and doesn't mean anything. We want to make this a deal that's going to last for many, many years and a deal that's going to be good for both countries, but we want to make it meaningful. Now. With that being said, China has the advantage of having many years of tremendous success at the expense of the United States. So they understand that. And I never blamed China for that. I blamed our past leaders. Our leaders have done a lousy job with trade. Our country lost eight hundred billion last year with trade generally eight hundred billion dollars. So the Vice Premiere understands that. So this same agreement should have been President talking about a deal with China. Right there, he says that he thinks a deal all right. That was the coverage and the best line there was do they have fake news in China? I was dying. We have other breaking news and that apparently they're getting closer to a deal. The relationship has gotten better, you know, another promise, Oh, it's because kind of start trade wars. No, but they have to believe that you're serious when you're being taken advantage of. There will not be according to now every media outlet just breaking Muller, there will be no Mueller report next week. High ranking senior arment of Justice officials have confirmed to all news sources. So we're watching that very very closely. And uh, you know some other interesting news here they do. You know that if you're a conservative in today's media climate, and we've gone over, we're gonna get to the smaller case with cl Brian, who is going to join us at the top of the hour. You know, sometimes you think that, well, we're kind of on an island. I have good news. Gallup survey number of voters who identified themselves as conservative has jumped dramatically in recent weeks, to the point where conservatives now outnumber liberals in forty three out of fifty states. By the way, A great job, Nancy Maxie Bernie AOC. Now the number of states where liberals outnumber conservative has dropped from more than more than thirty percent only six Massachusetts away, Vermont, Washington, New York, and New Hampshire. Ladist gallipole in every other state but California, where conservatives and liberals split twenty nine. Listen, I bet in New York you can, like I do, register as a conservative. I'm a I'm not a Republican. Don't like I think Republicans a week We'll also get to this news on the border Zagbie as a poll out pretty remarkable. Suburban women more than voters overall support the President's wall and the President's emergency declaration. M Lindsey Graham predicted that there's gonna be a handful of Republicans the President asked about this during this impromptu press conference in the Oval Office. They'll back the resolution of block the President's emergency declaration and how many Graham sat A handful, But there won't be enough to sustain a veto. The President just promised he would veto any effort to stop his emergency. That means I think it's going to go through, but pay close attention, and you may want to get in touch with some of your elected representatives. All right, listen, I sleep better than ever. We'll get to the smaller issue outh. What's the new developer? Drugs made me do it? I'm okay, we knew something like that was coming. But this guy's in trouble. It's apparently now the police superintendent that says he also sent the racist, homophobic letter with the powder to himself. This is now literally, you know, becoming a mountain of evidence against him. But we will withhold judgment. This announcements to Day recognizes that Empire actor Jesse Smillett took advantage of the pain and anger of racism to promote his career. I'm left hanging my head and asking why why would anyone, especially an African American man, use the symbolism of a noose to make false accusations. How could someone look at the hatred and suffering, associate it with that symbol and see an opportunity to manipulate that symbol to further his own public profile. How can an individual who's been embraced by the city of Chicago turn around and slap everyone in this city in the face by making these false shart claims, ogus police reports calls real harm. They do harm to every legitimate victim who's in need of support by police and investigators as well as the citizens of this city. All right, that is the police superintendent Eddie Johnson is his name. I think one of the most powerful press conferences I've ever watched in my life. Very powerful. You know, twenty four officers still on this case, and you know here we are today and still the investigation is ongoing and ongoing and ongoing, and you know now the claim, Well, I might be taking ecstacy, might be on drugs. I don't think many people are buying it. I mean we're at a point now where if Jesse Smollett It wants to it all try and regain any credibility. In my opinion, if he's done all of this and the evidence is now growing and becoming overwhelming, he should come forward and stop the misuse of police, you know, limited resources, especially in Chicago. I mean we have literally people shot and killed every day, when women and children are shot and killed. Anyway, the Reverend cl Bryant is with us, author of the Race for Freedom. He's a senior fellow at Freedom Works. And by the way, I put up a foxnews dot com article discussing the new socialist agenda. We'll check in with him about that. Reverend Brian, how are you my friend? Really good? Sean? Good to be with you, my good friend. Listen. I enjoy being on your show, except you never invite me anymore. I must have got kicked off or something. Maybe I'm not on the shortlist of guests. Oh, your time is coming, Sean, and hey have a very sametress to Vietnam. But take care to Vietnam. By the way, by the time I land, it's twenty five hours later, and it's nuts. But this is if we can You imagine if we can get this done. I mean, Trump gave up nothing. Sanctions are still in place, We've got no more rockets being fired like they were every other week over Japan and threatening the US with nuclear holocaust, and you know, a little rocket man and fire in fury, and my buttons bigger than you're a bucket button. We got our hostages back, we got the remains of soldiers back from the nineteen fifties, and it appears like we have a good shot. I mean, I know the media, why doesn't it happened already. I'm like, well, we've made a lot more progress than any other president. And you know what, if he can pull this off, it would be great for the entire world, and especially the Korean Peninsula and the millions that would be killed, God forbid of something happened in South Korea. The president is on his way to being one of the most successful presidents in modern history, and it's a shame that the identity politics that is being launched against him is taking place in our country at this time. Sean, but I do believe that it's being exposed for exactly what it is for such a time as this identity politics has always been the foundation of racism in this country, and it has always been the Democrats who have engaged in that type of buffoonery. You know, I want to ask you, because listen, you're a conservative, like I'm a conservative. I don't think there's much we disagree with at all. Really, I mean, you would know better than me, but I can't think of anything we believe. I know you're a preacher. I'm not that you're the better man, but you know, we believe that everybody, everybody on this earth was created by God, and that everybody has talents and abilities from God. And I look at all of this rancor and all of this back and forth, and I look at the record breaking success of this president with minorities. But the narrative every two years and four years leveled against anyone who's a Republican. I happen to be a registered Conservative. Is you know you're racist, your sexist, your homoic, zamophoma against homophobic, You want dirty air water, you want to throw Granny over a cliff. It happens every two or four years. Now it appears the big trigger in America and the minds of the hate Trump media mob especially but others is make America great again. I'm like, huh, why is that a trigger? We have it because we have a chance now to give our story, to tell our story. The one thing that we have not done successfully as conservatives and certainly as Republicans is tell our story. And unfortunately, Sean, many of us don't know our story. When we see these women dress in white at the State of the Union address, they were making this statement about women suffrage, but they leave out the part where Susan b. Anthony, even though she didn't get a chance to vote, she died before she enjoyed the fruits of women suffrage. Suffrage was dedicated to the Republican Party, and Frederick Douglas, that runaway slave, was in fact her contemporary and a friend of Lincoln's. If you ask the average young person today what party Lincoln was president of they or was the part of, they would tell you that he had to be a Democrat. Because the narrative today is that Republicans are evil, they're haters and xenophope. Lincoln couldn't possibly freed any slave because Republicans would not do that. So we are able now in the midst of all of this lunacy that's going on with Jesse Smollett and others, to tell our story. And I certainly hope that we follow the presidents lead and start telling the truth about who we are as a nation, who we are as a party, and who we are as the American people. It's only right that we tell our story. I know all I want in America. What I loved about how the twenty sixteen election got to find and even at times Trump would say, what do you got to lose? And it was you know, it's simple, but it's kind of profound because you know, Obama added thirteen million Americans to food stamps, an eight million more in poverty, and if you break it down demographically, the people that were most negatively impacted were minority communities, African Americans, Hispanic Americans. And now that you look at, okay, the largest tax cut in history, the most deregulation we've ever had. Were now finally energy independent in the world's biggest producer of oil and natural gas, with two pipelines yet to be built. There being built now and and more being opened and drilling will start. There's you know, we're talking about hundreds of thousands of high paying career jobs for people. And you know, then you look at record low unemployment for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, women in the workforce, youth unemployment. I'm like, Okay, maybe don't like a style or something, but do you like he's fighting to make the country successful again, and he's succeeding five point three million new jobs, six hundred thousand and manufacturing alone. That's amazing to me. Because conservatism works, Reverend, that's it. I like conservatism because it works for the people. I was the people. I was the dishwasher, I was the contractor. That's me. Yeah, Sean, you and I both worked our way up out of the tricks and have been become successful in the greatest country that the world has ever known, the greatest success story that on the planet, that's America. And instead of the idea of being victims in this country, we should examine just how victorious all of us together have been because of the free market system and because of the great endowment that was put into our founding documents by yes, those old white men who even though I don't know if Thomas Jefferson had me and mine when in fact he wrote the Declaration of Independence. But Sean, I promise you that the day that he pinned the words that we have an endowment given to us by our creator, which includes our life, liberty in pursuit of happiness, that old white man guaranteed that the day would come that I, the former great grandson of former slaves, would be speaking to you, the son of Irish immigrants, in a free America, enjoying the same fruits of America that anyone else can enjoy if they do it legally, and if they do it honestly. You know, it's so funny think of how united the country could be if you because there is residual racism and bigotry, and you know, you see, you see it on one side with these insane, you know, racist clan sympathizing lunatics that have nothing but hate and evil in their hearts, you know, Lewis Farrakhan on the other extreme of that. But if every American has a shot, like for example, there was a story I read earlier in the program Reverend and It's us energy daily caller production is breaking every record in the book. And I'll give you a few numbers that you know. According to the Energy Information Administration report weekending February fifteenth, crude oil output jump more than one point seven million barrels a day compared to twenty eighteen. I know the left wants the New Green Deal, which would destroy all prosperity. That means if every single person in this country gets the job they want, the house they would like, the car that they want, the vacations they deserve. Don't you think we're all gonna get along better? I think so. Oh absolutely, Sean. And let me tell you, I certainly hope. It may sound strange for me to say this. I hope they keep Acacia Cortez right out front where she can be seen and exposed for who and what she is. I hope Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders keep them out front so that they can be exposed for exactly who they are. And they are dream killers, That's who they are. They are there to kill, to stifle, and to take away from those people. You have just described the ability to capture the American dream. And what is that? The American dream is to the ability to keep your family safe, to keep your family dead, warm, and drive. You are responsible for that, if you're a man or a single parent, whoever you are. That's the American dream that's available to you in this country. It's one that has been fought for over the centuries for by our ancestors. Even if you were a runaway slave, you were wanting the ability for yourself to make your by the way you made that movie, which is what you're referring to. The people don't know about runaway slave. All right, c O'Brien, stay right there, eight hundred nine for one Sean toll free telephone number. Is there a threat Republicans are not gonna go along with the President's national emergency and try and stop it In the Senate, We'll check in with Senator Rick Scott and we'll talk to him about the other issues in Washington. As we continue, Another big breaking news day will be in Vietnam as of Monday, following the big Summit. We'll be covering every issue back here too Radio three am for me TV well that would be at nine am. Pretty amazing, right. As we continue, Reverend cy Olbryin is with us author of the Race for Freedom, senior fellow at Freedom Works. All right, So the bottom line is if we believe the same things we know, the path to prosperity is limited government, less burdensome regulation, low taxes. You know, you see this mass exitus exodus from these states that tax and regulate like New York, New Jersey, California, Illinois, etc. And I'm thinking that's a preview of coming attractions. If the Democrats and their wealth tax and their seventies percent tax, and their guarantee healthcare and housing and college and retirement and healthy food, they get their way, it's over because they will the nationalize every industry. The healthcare industry you can't have, according to Kamala Harris, any private healthcare you can. They'll nationalize the end shut down the energy industry, which will impact millions and millions of American jobs. Sean in our DNA, as Americans, regardless of whatever your ethnicity, wherever you may have come to this country from, is a thirst to be free, a liberty and freedom Gamala Harris and Spiracus was along with Atasia Cortez again, as I said earlier, would like to take that away and Americans are tired of being told how much money we should make, how little money we should make, if, in fact, the government will get between us and our doctors, if we're going to be fed by the government, and how much that's going to cause. And I tell you something else, Sean, Americans are tired of government and politicians hammering on the commander in chief of this nation. This president has shown himself to love the security and safety that America has provided as the greatest nation on the face of the planet. How can we possibly listen to anyone who would want us to be codependent on dick government while taking away the same at the same time, the very assets that have made us a people that are exceptional among all the other people on the face of the earth. Where we call that arrogant, no, we call that American. And I'm very proud to say that you're a great American. Reverend, God bless you. You are a shining light for the cause of liberty and freedom. I admire you so much. Thank you so much for being with us, and we appreciate you taking time always. Thank you, God bless you. Sean. By now you too, my friend, eight hundred nine for one Shawn told free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program when we come back, Governor Rick Scott. Lindsey Graham is now saying something that ought to terrify everybody, that the Republican controlled Senate may pass a solution against Trump's border wall declaration. We got to deal with this and you may want to start calling your senators now, all right, twenty five now until the top of the hour, Hannity Watch on the Borders and all Things Washington. I'm really upset about what I read in the Hill today. Senator Lindsey Graham, frequent guest on this program, indicated earlier today that there are enough potential defectors in the GOP controlled Senate. I mentioned earlier Nancy Pelosi wants a vote. They want to try and stop and take away the president's authority as it is by the way currently the law and also backed up by his constitutional authority to keep the country safe anyway, and pass a resolution against the President's border wall emergency declaration anyway. So asked how many Republicans would vote with the Democrats in the Senate, Graham said a handful, but there'll be enough left to sustain a veto. He said he personally would absolutely not vote for the Democratic led resolution that he says is one hundred percent with the president. But Graham didn't offer a specific number of how many Republican colleagues he thinks will vote against the president. I hope Republicans will not reward this quite frankly, well he's hoping, but he's not promising. Now that is just to me outrageous. Anyway, newly elected senator, former governor of the great State of Florida, Rick Scott is with us. Um, so how do you let first of all, can you win with a little bit more margin next time? Every single time you run? You know you you know. I'm sitting there sweating watching the results come in from West Palm Beach in Broward County. Well, they looks like they found him. He found ninety five votes after election day, so I don't believe it a lot closer. But well, I hope Lindsay Graham is wrong. Um, this was about the president's first choice. He didn't want to use his executive power. He's done everything he could to work through Congress to get the money, but he's unfortunately it has a job to do to cure our borders. And when Congress won't give him the funds, he has to he has to use the executed power to keep us safe. And so I'm hoping Republicans, you know, support the President on this. Um. I'm sure for some people might be a tough vote, but you know the Democrats are sitting here, they won't give the money. I've gone to the border, I've talked to border security. You know, here's what they say they need. They need more people, they need newer technology. Their their cameras are decades old. They also need barriers. They need to be able to have operational control where people are coming. When I was down there, they explained to me, well, this is where the cartel allows the drugs to come across. This is where the cartel has people come across. So we know exactly where we need to do our barriers. And so these Democrats ought to go down the border and till border security. They don't care about the board securities, safety, And they ought to go to American people and say, you know what we'll talk about. We'll talk a big game about board security. But we actually we Democrats, we don't care about your your security, because that's exactly what they're saying. You know, the thing is is the numbers are in and you know this is basic, simple common sense to me. Even the Democrats they sounded like Donald Trump during Obama's second term when he sounded like Donald Trump. So I'm watching this, you know, be a political power play by everybody. Um, from what you're gleaning from the halls of Congress, I mean, do you get a feel for how many people might not support the presidents in your president your party? Because that really pisses me off, to be honest, Yeah, Sean, I don't. I don't have a feel. I know they look President Trump didn't want to use the executive power. Um, that's not the way we should be running their country. For these Democrats have said, we this is just hatred, hatred, hatred for Donald Trump. It's not how do I love Americans. It's Democrats are sitting there, They're they're hating on Donald Trump. That's that's what's going on in Washington right now. So why don't they do what they say they care about? Why don't they say, you know, why don't they say we care about more security? Didn't do it funded? And if they say, you know, if they say, you know, we ought to make sure we take care of the dreamers. Okay, let's do it. Let's let's fix Tipperary. Say, but you're you know, I want to remind people how I really got to know you and like you so much because there were three people that were always in New York, you and Bobby Jindall and Rick Perry. And every time you guys would come to New York, and all of you were competing to bring business back to your home states because of the far better tax situation, which is a zero income tax state. I want you to listen to what Cuomo said. Listen to this. We have one of the most progressive tax codes in the United States. One percent of the taxpayers pay nearly half of all the taxes. One percent pay nearly half of all those taxes. Those one percent are the richest people in the state. They're the richest people in the country, and they are the most mobile people in the country. And you see the chart on the bottom top one percent, about forty six percent, top five percent, sixty three percent of all the revenue, top ten percent seventy four percent of all the revenue. Tax the rich tax, the rich tax the rich. We did now, God forbid the rich leave, governor. Guess what they have? They have a two point three billion dollars short short fall. Well, if you are a governor in Florida and so many tens and tens of thousands of the one two, three, four five percent that are getting taxed to death leave and go to Florida, Texas, the Carolinas, what would happen if it was happening in your state when you're a governor, I'd probably make a few changes. Yeah, you think for eight or nine years, and he's just figured out that when you tax people too much, they leave. I mean, give me a break. What was the budget in your state of Florida when you're a governor when how let me give you the numbers. I cut taxes almost one hundred times, over ten billion dollars. Right, we had one point seven million jobs. And guess what, Sean, we paid off a third of state debt and more revenue came in when you cut the taxes. Correct, My revenues up for like thirty seven percent. How much was the usually budget in Florida? What was your annual budget? The budget in Florida when I left was about eighty five billion dollars. New York has fewer people and their budget is almost double ours, and the infrastructure is a thousand times worse. Oh it's horrible. Top two states for infrastructure. We have record funding for the environment, increased funding for KG twelve education four and a half billion dollars from the top five for KGE twelve and number one in higher education. I mean, so what New York is doing is unbelievable for Florida, and he won't do. You know, we have more natural gas and upstate New York than you can shake a stick at. We could create literally billions of dollars in revenue, and Cuomo won't let it because he's so beholden to the environmental extremists. By the way, I don't know if you've noticed, it was actually snowing in California and Vegas the other day. Oh yeah, I saw, I saw this. Just a just a quick side note. Um, all right, so let me ask you this. Um, we have all of this, What do you make of this? You know, look at Covington, look at the kids there, What do you make of that? What do you make a Jussie Smollett, what do you make of make America great again? Hat has now become a trigger for people to get loud, angry, and even violent. What do you make of though? You know it's first off, it's disgusting. I mean no, I don't know anybody that condones violence, racism, or discrimination. I don't nobody. How would Why would somebody make this stuff up? Right? Why? Why would you make it up? And then what where are these reporters that went out and immediately to start attacking Trump and his supporters? And why where are they now? They should be on air and they said, look, you know, we apologize, we were wrong, we demonized conservatives, We were wrong. Where are they now? They're sitting on the sidelight and they won't say a word. I mean, they've just gone so the off the deep end. I mean, what what does Trump believe in? He believes in each of our families having a chance to live the dream. I lived in public housing growing up. I focused on job creation and guess what we got it? We had one point seven lived in public housing growing up. Yeah, I didn't never knew. I never met my dad. I had a single mom. We lived in public housing. Eventually had an adopted father, but they my parents never had any money and so I knew it's a job. You want to work. My parents wanted me to have a chance, and so they said, you got to get a job, you got to work. So I've worked all my life and that's what we want. But look at what Cuomo's done up there. He's killed the job market. And who's it help. It doesn't help anybody, But who's it hurt? The poorest families get hurt the most when there's not a job. That's who gets hurt, hurt the most. People without as much education, they lose their jobs. That's what That's what Cuomo has been doing. And so Cuomo, Malloy and Connecticut. You know, you look at these states and what they're doing. They're just sending everybody to Florida or Texas. Yeah. Um, you know, it's so amazing. You created one point seven million new jobs, you increased you cut taxes over one hundred times. And how many new people moved to Florida during your time as governor when Sean, when I got started, all right, I got left in twenty ten. We are losing people in the last few years. We're adding over four hundred thousand people a year. We're competing with Texas for the number of people who came there. Our job growth rate was doing way higher. It's generally almost fifty percent higher than the rest of the country. Right, we had wage growth growth, we had our job growth rate was faster. We paid off the debt, we cut taxes, shockings. This is what works. I believe this. You know, people say, well, Hannity, Hannity tells Trump what to do. By the way, it's it's if he'd listened to meybe, let me tell you a governor, he would have stopped tweeting in the campaign back in twenty fifteen. He's his own man. But he I told everybody, because I've known him for more than a couple of decades, I said he's gonna govern conservatively. I know him. I also know that he will be unrelenting and tenacious and what he's gonna fight to get this done. Well, five point three million new jobs later. What's that, Sean, I just talked to him an arrago, you know, always talking about maybe money. Yeah, I was talking about he says. He says, I want to figure out how we can save more money. That's what we're talking about. Listen, the penny plan. I'm He's so funny because I would ask him about the Penny plan during the campaign and not long ago, like a couple of weeks ago. What are you think of the Nickel Plan? In other words, if you cut one penny out of every dollar you end baseline budgeting every year for six years, you get to a balanced budget. The Nickel plan will do it, you know, twice five times faster. But you know government, it's against them to cut anything money. I'm a business guy. You always had to figure out how to do it less expensively. But you know what, why don't we give the prison a line on a detO if we gave if we gave prison trup An the next Democrat prison, they can have a line on V two two. Look at how much money that he Then he can say this is how much money I saved, and then we hold them accountable. You know, I never knew your story before, and I'm extraordinarily impressed. Um, you know, I will say this, You're the guy that I like in politics that, with all due respect, you're you're kind of more quiet than the average politician. You don't go bragging about what you're doing every day. But you just, you know, a hurricane hits Florida. All hands on deck, every preparation has been put in place, and you're ready to go. And that's how it seems how you roll, and that's why you've been so successful. And I know people in this dayna would want the flash, but I'll take the success. Maybe people don't like some aspects of the president's fighting personality, but well, when he's fighting for a better trade deal that helps American workers, I like the fight when he's fighting little Rocketman and winning. I like the fight when he's fighting to make NATO pay their fair share instead of us sucking it up all the time. I like the fight when he's fighting for energy independence, tax cuts and ending the bureaucracy in a border wall. I want the fight or Supreme Court justices. You know, I don't want it for years of my family ever. Think about un everything you just talked about. Every family is better off because of that. Every family in this country is better off because of those things, right, border security, Nate and having a strong nature alliance where they pay their fair share, making making sure that the North Korea doesn't know doesn't continue to develop nuclear weapons, you know, public, I mean, all this stuff is so basic. But you know, these Democrats they just hate they just hate Donald Trump, and so they're going to do everything they can to stop him from accomplishing. And you don't think they'll be able to override a presidential veto do you You don't think that we have that many pathetically weak and spineless senate Republicans, do you? You know? You know, Sean, I hope not. I mean, here's what I mean. Look, Let's remember President Trump didn't wake up and say I want to use my executive power. No, he said, he worked through Congress, he made proposals. You know, he sat down with people, he was very open to trying to make you know, he said, we can take care of the doctor kids, we can do a lot of different things. And so but what did the Democrats see? No, no, no, no, no money all right? And then what they gave him was a very little money, and so he has no choice. Let me ask you this last question. What's the biggest difference as governor? It's got to be much easier than being a senator. We have the difference. I mean, if I had to deal with some of those idiots that you work with, I can say it. You can't I want to I want to pull my hair out. I want to just you know, forget who you know what I'm saying. There's so I mean, you know, DC, it's so fascinating. It's just there's so much hatred, and there's people are just actors. You go up there and you see all these people that say something, but if you look at their actions and it was just the opposite and so amazing, isn't it? Look As governor you start to work with your legislature. But you know, look, I'm optimistic. I'm you know, I work my tail off to get this job. I got a lot of support in my state. I'm going to do everything I can to make sure this is the best country to live in. I want it for your family, for my family, every family out there. All right, Senator Rick Scott, thank god you made it there. You know, please make it a little easier next time. You've done a wonderful job for the people of Florida. Eight hundred nine four one sewn Tolfree telephone number, News round Up Information Overload. At the top of the hour, we have an amazing Hannity tonight, and immediately after that, I'm boarding a plane a red eye and out we go in twenty five twenty five hours later. Coming up next our final news round up and Information Overload Hour. All Right, News rounds Up, Information Overload Hour, Sean Hannity Show. All Right, in a few minutes, we're gonna get to our friend Jeffrey Lord and David Shone. But first, what have I been pointing out? You know this twenty twenty Hannity watched twenty twenty Democratic primary is going to be one of the most entertaining, on the one hand, things you'll ever see in politics. I mean, there's no limit to how load they are not willing to go. How left, hard left, radical extremist they won't go. Now the Green New Deal, of course, we're gonna retro fit, rebuild every house, eliminate cows because of Flatulen's way. Do you hear Acascio Cortez's comments, We're gonna so meet us out as well. Airplanes are gone, maybe not in ten years, but we're gonna do it as quick as we can. Get ready to take a sail over to Europe and at high speed train will get your right to Asia and right to Australia in seconds. No worries about any of that. Don't worry about the costs. You're gonna get free retirement, a job, all the benefits you're can imagine, including family leave, medical leave, vacations, full retirement, guaranteed housing, guaranteed college, guaranteed healthcare. But you can't get your own healthcare insurances. A number of candidates, like Kamala Harris has suggested no more private insurances. You're gonna be on the government plan. They did so well the last time with Obamacare. Everything is gonna be free, free, free, free, free, free socialist utopia. Grandiose plans, incredible, grandiose promises, bumper stickers, platitudes, all your fears are gone with one big caveat. It doesn't work, you know it. Listen to Bernie Sanders saying, and this is very revealing that my far left to chin has entered the political mainstream. He's telling the truth. He may be too conservative as a socialist for this new radical extreme democratic socialist party. Listen what I am very proud of. In a sense, this campaign, John is a continuation of what we did in two thousand and sixteen. All of those ideas. People say, oh, Bernie, this a radical. They are extremely American people just won't accept those ideas. Well, you know what's happened to over three years, All of those ideas and many more are now part of the political mainstream. Is that your argument then against your competitors, which is, I was medicare for all before medicare for all was cool. I guess it's one way of looking at them. Oh, okay, I better care for all. Well, that's gonna cost in ten years thirty three trillion dollars. That's almost the entire budget. And we know how keep your doctor your plan and say money worked. Now. Oh, in the last few days, the latest thing is Kamala and Elizabeth Warren, I think one other candidate supporting reparations for African Americans. Then it goes on Alexandria Cassio Cortez, the new leader of this Democratic extremist party, explaining that the flatulence in cows issue in the Green New Deal. My Twitter mentions, I'm getting a lot of references about cow farts, and I think that's a reference to your Green New Deal. Yeah, you explain that for us, Yes, in the deal. What we talk about is, I mean, and it's it's true, is that we need to take a look at factory farming. You know, period, it's wild. And so it's not to say you get rid of agriculture. It's not to say we're going to force everybody to go vegan or anything crazy like that, but it's to say, listen, we gotta address factory farming. Maybe we shouldn't be eating a hamburger for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, like, let's keep it ridy. Yeah, I mean, but um, but we have to take a look at everything. And what we need to realize is that climate change is about every choice that we make in our lives. You know, Okay, and airplanes are gone and we're gonna rebuild every house in ten years. And then she talks about now remember the wealth tax of Elizabeth Warren. I'll get to in a second, but remember Casio Cortez wants a seventy percent marginal tax rate. Now, why are people leaving New York, California, New Jersey, in Illinois, Oh, high taxes and burdens, some regulation, and they go on a low tax, limited government interference states like taxes in Florida, the Carolinas, etc. Listen to this. So a marginal tax rate is saying if you make more than ten million in one year, which is a pretty good year. Ten million. Yes, seriously, you make more than ten million in one year, you are ten million, and one dollar gets taxed at seventy percent, which, by the way, we used to have marginal tax rates under Republican presidents of ninety percent, and it was when we experienced some of the largest rates that you know, it's crazy, like she slowly explained it, and I don't have ten million dollars, but even though I'm just like Noah, and it really comes down to the question of isn't ten million enough? Like when does it stop? Right? Like when right point? Is it all that we're building Jeff Bezos a helipad when we have the most amount of homeless people in New York City. Now they're all trying to up the anti As I mentioned just the last couple of days, the issue of reparations has come up with these candidates. Now it's Elizabeth Warren wanting a wealth tax, meaning you've already paid your taxes and then wait a minute, if you save too much, she's gonna come in and take a huge, big bite of the apple, to the tune of some seventy billion dollars or more. Why because she's offering another entitlement that would be free government daycare. Listen to this progressive taxation. I put a an ultra millionaires tax out a proposal on this. Think about this. If we taxed a state of people families that have more than fifty million dollars in assets, If we charged him two percent a year and they put that back in the kitty to help build opportunity for everybody else, we could pay for universal childcare, brand down student loan debt. We could make a big down payment on a Green New deal. We could make the investments that make this country work. Let's legalize stealing, because that's what they're talking about. Jeff Lord, author of the upcoming book Swamp War is Donald Trump and the New American Populism versus the Old Order. By the way, a survivor of CNN Fake News. David Shone, criminal and Civil Liberties attorney, Criminal defense attorney. Welcome both of you. Jeff Cots, when's the book coming out? Congrats and what do you think of all this? Thank you? May twenty eighth, and I'll be addressing some of this year, but you know, so, let's just stop with one of the basics, as you well know. Aside from the fact, I think politically speaking, I wonder sometimes that these people are not all secretly on Donald Trump's payroll. I just cannot wait for next year. You were going to have a feast of shows with these people. But one of the first things I'd ask them is, if you want to raise taxes, why don't you start as you're perfectly free to do by raising your own right now we're coming up to tax season. You don't have to wait. Bernie Sanders has three mansions, well millions of dollars we're making, and why does it give his homes, open it up to the homeless, and and all for food? Spending that money on food? What's stopping him? That's right? And I wonder how many people Alexandria of Cassio Cortez is going to move into the Washington Navy Yard luxury apartments with her. She's now making what is it a congressional salary, one hundred and seventy four thousand dollars a year. Isn't one hundred thousand enough? Don't? I don't understand her reluctance to sacrifice here. The point is these people are, as Sean as you have predicted exactly, are going to so overplay their hand. I can't wait until we find a situation where it's Elizabeth for the sake of the argument, it's Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders against Kamala Harris, and then we're going to have all the people who believe race and color is all going out there, all sorts of outrageous things about Elizabeth Warren because she's really white, or Bernie Sanders is an old white man. I mean, they're gonna our themselves with this identity politics stuff, not to mention their financial programs. Now, what does your take, David, as you listen to all this. And by the way, you and I were talking privately the other day about this rising anti semitism in the Democratic ranks among a couple of the congresswomen that we've talked about Omar and others, and it's frightening that they're not getting the rebuke and losing committee assignments for things they've said and tweeted and associations like with Lewis Farakon. I mean, that's the first comment I'd like to make before we even dignify any so called economic plan by complete amateurs. I think we have to call them out every occasion which their name appears. These three are the three most diggoted, anti Semitic and diggoted Congress members of Congress and I've seen in a long time. And by the three, I mean Ocasio Cortez, whose supporters rally to annihilate Israel. She doesn't disclaim at all. Omar, who's made comment after comment after comment of bigotry, who's been supported now openly by David Duke and Lewis farakons they have both bookends. There this nonsense of apologizing afterwards. She was confronted by leaders of the Jewish community in her district years ago and they were troubled by her response. So this nonsense about she doesn't know she's offending people is ridiculous. And then Rashida Tlabe is one of the worst of all from Gearborn. She has now making excuse as well. She's not responsible for her followers. She posed in pictures for supporters of Hamas and has Bola known terrorists. Omar is now about to address a conference of supporters of terrorism. It's outrageous. So we shouldn't be dignifying their programs in the first place, Now the programs are on the table, complete nonsense, of course. And listen if you're you know, if you're a salesperson, you want to give everybody everything. Well, that's great. Who wouldn't be for that. The problem is you have to be able to pay for you have to have a foot in realism. This is just amateur hour. It's horrible. Well, I also think if we're gonna look at this from the perspective of twenty twenty and bookmakers in London and in Vegas and all around the world are like saying, yeah, this is great for Trump. He's like likely gonna win. Although Jeff, look, it's always hard for a Republican presidential candidate because frankly, the map is just better for the Democrats. You know, when you get fifty five electoral votes out of California and you get New York and Illinois and usually New Jersey without a fight, it's hard. Yeah, it is. Although Sean, I'll say, I mean, I was one of the few people that said that he could carry Pennsylvania just like Ronald Reagan did, and it turned out to be right. They give me one quick anecdote. I gave a talk last night to admittedly a group of Republicans in neighboring New York County. But the interesting thing I found is that when I mentioned that Nick Sandman's in Lynnwood's suit against the Washington Post for two hundred and fifty million dollars, Now, that got a thunderous, spontaneous applause, which says to me that the issue of the American media out there, which Donald Trump has brought to the four is really underlying a lot of this stuff, and that can in fact help energize the base in places like that was last night and really get people to turn out they are really upset about this kind of thing. Yeah, well, I will tell you these media outlets are going to pay now. They've been wrong so often, and they paid in the past. They paid Richard Jewel, they paid the Duke Lacrosse kids. Nobody knows because settlements like that are usually under the umbrella of a non disclosure agreement of some kind, although more and more they seem to leak out. But I will guarantee you because I know Lynn would, and I know you, David. You're the same way, unrelenting and tenacious. You win because you put your heart and soul into it. He's got two and a half years because of Nicolas Sandman's age to identify all these people that malicious maligned him, libeled him, use character, assassination, threatened physical violence against him. They're all gonna get sued. I know, Lynn. Lynn just starts with one and he goes down the list. Yea, and I believe equally as important as whatever they recover in the case because the fact that it was brought and that is going to bring the truth to life. People need to hesitate before they rush to these false accusations. You know you've reported steadily now about this most recent case. Everyone wanted to jump on the band with bandwig and lay blame for this assault, so called the salt on the fell you've been reporting about. And look, if they don't have to pay damages, they're gonna have to pay in reputation because they're ruining lives with these kinds of spurious allegations. All right, quick break more with Jeff Lord David shown on the other side than your calls at the bottom of the half hour, Glad you're with us. The Democratic Party then now makes this solid move to thee. What are the ramifications of this you see. Look when a hundred politicians in Washington support the New Green Deal, Jeffrey, that scares me, and I think, and it should. It should. I mean, what's going on here is the main streaming of far left radicalism. And you know, when you're dealing with people like Alexandria a Casio Cortez, who are young, who are millennials, who are clueless about the history of the world or American history, etc. They can buy into this and we wind up, instead of moving ahead towards the twenty first century style future of freedom, going backwards and having to fight some of these battles all over again. That Ronald Reagan thought that, you know, he'd made a significant impact fighting and winning. And you've talked to President Trump and I've talked to him about socialism. I mean, he is now out there campaigning against us. But this is a fight, to be sure. But you know a lot of our conservative brethren, you know, I look, I put my neck on the line a lot on this show. All right, Thank you both, Jeff Floyd and David Schoem. Appreciate you being with us. Eight hundred nine for one Seawan Tolfrey telephone number. Your phones are next as we continue on this busy Friday Hannity tonight at nine. Then it's off to Vietnam, where we will be interviewing the president and have full coverage of the summit with Kim Jong Un and much more straight ahead. This is great stuff. We've got Bernie Sanders defending breadlines in this what he I mean, it's the craziest stuff out of nineteen eighty five, praising Communist Castro, the regime of in Cuba. By the way, he murdered his way and stole everybody's property. He was a murderer, dictator, thug, admitting that he traveled to Nicaragua to advise the head of the Sand and East Is the Ortega regime had a successfully fight the US. Wow, that's pretty sick stuff. Anyway, let's start with Bernie defending breadlines. This is priceless. You know, it's funny. Sometimes American journalists talk about how bad a country is because people are lining up for food. That's a good thing. In other countries, people don't line up for food. The rich gets the food and the poor scoff to death. Then he actually praises Fidel Castro and criticizes President Reagan at the time. This is socialist Bernie, who might be moderate now based on new standards of the extreme radical Democratic Socialist Party. Listen to this. See you think that the notion of a civil war running rife in that country is a misconception. Oh god, it absolutely it's the same thing. You know, they never learned. You may recall way back in one was the nineteen sixty one they invaded Cubas and everybody was totally convinced the cashtro was the worst guy in the world. All the Cuban people, we're gonna rise up in rebellion against Fidel Castro. They forgot that he educated the kids, gave them healthcare, totally trans form the society. You know, not to say that the Fidel cash door A Cuba are perfect, they are certainly not. But just because Ronald Reagan dislikes these people does not need to say that the people in their own nations feel the same way. So they expected as tremendous uprising in Cuba. It never came. And if they are expecting a tremendous uprising in Nicaragua, they are very very very mistaken. Now, my favorite happens to be from nineteen eighty seven, mister Medicare for All is now saying, oh, Medicaid for all the bankrupt the country. He's actually right, then listen, number one, you want to guarantee that all people have access to healthcare, as you do in Canada. But I think what we understand is that unless we changed the funding system and the control mechanisms in this country to do that. For example, if we expanded medicaid everybody all right, if everybody medicaid caught, we would be spending such an astronomical sum of money that you know, we would bankrupt the nation. Yeah, we'd bankrupt the nation because like Andrew Cuomo admitting taxing the rich, listen in we tax the rich, we tax the rich. Retat another you know, God forbid the rich move. Listen to this. We have one of the most progressive tax codes in the United States, which is a good thing, which means the richer you are, the more you pay. However, that presents a very fragile economy because then you are relying on a very small number of people for the vast amount of your tax dollars. One percent of the taxpayers pay nearly half of all the taxes. One percent pay nearly half of all those taxes. Those one percent are the richest people in the state. They are the richest people in the country, and they are the most mobile people. Bye bye. And you see the chart on the bottom top one percent, about forty six percent, top five percent, sixty three percent of the seventy four tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich. We did now, God forbid the rich leave? Well they'll leave in two point three billion dollars shortfall. Whoopsie daisy. You know how did states like Florida, Texas, Louisiana on the governor jendal. You know, how do they keep attracting hundreds of thousands of people from other states every year? Oh, they don't tax the rich. Text the rich, tax the rich. They actually don't have a state income tax in a lot of these states, or the state of Tennessee or the Carolinas. And so the rich are leaving these high taxt and the bureaucratic nightmare states like California, New York, etc. And they're going little microcosm. It is a it is a preview of coming attractions. If this left wing band of socialists, radical extremists, seventy percent tax rate, everything's free redistribution free. You know, rebuild your home, no airplanes, no cows. You're gonna get free retirement, guaranteed job at a sustaining wage, medically, family le vacations, guaranteed healthcare free. But you can't have your own private healthcare. You're gonna have free guaranteed retirement. And Elizabeth Warren now wants to tax the wealth tax that gives another bite at the apple. After you paid your taxes, they'll use that for childcare. Will include that cradle to grave, womb to the tomb failure, a disaster. All right, let's get to our busy phone. Scott in Greensboro. Scott, happy Friday. Glad you called, sir, happy as well. I'm a prob army dad. Hey, I got a question. Should be proud, Gods your federal charges brought against our buddy in Chicago because he also was caught mailing an envelope with a white powder at it with I would assume that's gonna happen. I mean, I remember we haven't heard a peep out of it. Well again, if you go back to the this guy, mister Johnson, the police superintendent, what he said yesterday, Oh my gosh. But Yeah, his name is Eddie Johnson. He was so the best news conference I've ever watched, and he called Smollet's alleged public actions of publicity stunt. And then he went through how he sent himself the racist, homophobic letter and with the powder in it because he was dissatisfied with his seven figure salary. Oh my heart's bleeding. Oh yeah, I can't. Well, what would happen if if you would be a mailor an employee and that thing snagged open and that powder is that's terrorism, that's absolute terrorism. Well he's doing it to himself. I don't know if it's an active terror. You can commit an active terror against yourself. But it does bring, you know, hating Trump psychosis to a new level when you start scratching your own face and hiring people to beat you up, just like a mailorum employee of the show that where he received the letter at. Yeah, I mean, look, this is all bad. I mean, you look at the crime rate in Chicago and we can't be, you know, abusing resources like this. There are twenty four guys the side of this case, and these guys could be on the streets helping keep the people in Chicago that deserve to be protected that haven't been for years in some areas. We need to protect them this they're fellow human beings. Kids are shot, moms are shot. You know, it's it's they're not stopping it. And you know I did like the superintendent. He acknowledged we got some problems here. Well, let's get them the resources so they can get in the communities that need the most help and save these lives. They're Americans, save their life anyway, good points. Let's go to Doug in California. How are you, Doug? Hi, Sean, thank you for taking my call. Two takes on Alexandria out there Cortez the most interesting him in the world. She denies one hundred and fifty thousand dollars jobs to her constituency. She takes away their ability to achieve and better their lives. But yet, somehow it's okay for her to achieve and better her life through her congressional salary and new status. Shouldn't she give back her part of her salary to fit in with the norm of her constituency if she's so concerned about that, well, I'm saying that about Bernie Sanders. You know. Three mansions that he owns, and he apparently makes a million dollars a year he takes in. What's stopping him from opening up his Asians to homeless people? What's stopping him? I mean no, but it does echo my sentiment, which is these liberal socialist you know, extremist, you know statist. You know they are generous, but only with other people's money they take is on the national defense. We're gonna limitate fossil fuels. Okay, so we're not gonna have rocket fuel, jet fuel, diesel fuel for tanks. I don't think it was going to impress with a solar powered submarine. Um So, how what's your take on America's sovereignty? How are we supposed to keep that's just not talking about it now, they're just but this arming America unilaterally has always been a part of the leftist ideal. You know, they think that America again, we're pillaging the planet for profit and we're war mongers when we have literally sacrificed more for the safety, security, liberties, and freedoms of people around the globe and ask nothing in turn, except occasionally a plot to bury our brave soldiers. It's unbelievable. Their mindset. All right, that's gonna wrap things up for today. We have more and I hate crime hoax as it's called the Smallett Case, Alan Dershowitz, Eraldo Rivera. We're gonna go through the insanity that represents the extreme radical new Democratic socialist hate Trump mob. See it tonight at nine and we'll have our interview with President Trump next week as well. Have a great weekend and we'll see you from Hanoi on Monday. We'll see you tonight at nine
