It's eight hundred ninety four one, Shawn if you want to be a part of the program. All right, Linda, I'm asking you. You got the final numbers. We've been following the tally of congressmen and women of the new extreme radical Democratic Socialist Party that are supporting the New Green Deal of Acasio Cortez. What are we up to? What I have it in front of me right now? We have sixty four House co sponsors. We've got the House sponsor AOC from New York's fourteen districts, and we're so so sorry to the Republicans of Astoria that are stuck in that mess. And then Senate Sponsor Ed Markey from Massachusetts a story you mean her district? Do you mean the right? So I just found out yesterday from our from our faithful engineer Ethan, that New York's fourteenth district actually encompasses a lot of staunch Republicans that are in a storia, but they get jerrymandered out their vote because of this stronghold of the Democrats in the Bronx. So unfortunately, all these great Republicans and Queens have her as their person speaking for them on the House floor with her nonsense. So sixty four House co sponsors, ninth Senate cosponsors. The ninth Senate co sponsors are none other than Kamala Harris, Richard Blumenthal, Mazie Harron No, Elizabeth Warren, Corey Booker, Elizabeth Say, Elizabeth Warning, Elizabeth Warren Corey Booker. Yeah, Kirsten jellabrand Ron war ten bullets. Please do not compare me to Cuomo and Bernie Sanders. Yeah, shocking. Uh, that is your new radical extreme left Democratic Party. M one other edition here Amazon. Now, now, look, I don't like the idea that states and cities they offered deals to bring certain companies in to town, the tax incentives for Amazon with through the roof and anyway, now Amazon is reconsidering their plan to bring this to Long Island City. These well, I think they were going to bring in create twenty five thousand new jobs and a new campus in New York City or just in Queens and all of a sudden, now that might not happen because opposition, and I know the city in the state is offering all sorts of incentives to make this happen. The problem is you don't have equal distribution fairness under the law because no one else that is in business is getting these types of breaks. So there is fundamental unfairness to it. And they're only ticking and choosing which companies benefit from better tax plans, and the law is not equally applied. But I'm torn because I care so much about people, and New York has become such a financial basket case, which is why everybody's leaving. And now they're two point three billion dollars in the red because the mass exodus out of New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and California is you know, they made all these promises, and all the people that have been paying the taxes are saying, screw you. I'm moving to Texas and I'm moving by taking my business with me, or I'm moving to Florida and I'm taking my business with me, or I'm moving to Nashville, or I'm moving to the Carolinas, anywhere but here. And so then those states, especially Florida and Texas, that have no state income tax, those states are now experiencing a massive influx of rich people that have money that are gonna build factories and manufacturing centers and create jobs. That's why the job you know, so many jobs existing, and they were able to take care of their infrastructure and everything else. It's so much better in both Florida and Texas. And these dopes they doubled down and tripled down on stupid constantly, which is unbelievable. And they just don't understand basic capitalism. They don't understand fundamental free markets. They don't understand what has made this country the richest best opportunity creation and mankind's history. Why so much wealth creation has happened because of, Yes, freedom and liberty. You know, we're endowed by our creator, our founding document, our declaration life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Now, some people are happy, you know, not pursuing finances or money or things in their life. And some people really and I've met so many of them in my life. People are called to do things. I know people that are really called into medicine to be a doctor and then to do it. You know, you think of the sacrifice you got, all right, four years of college, four years of medical school, then a couple of years residency internship. You know, and next thing, you know, you've got student loans that are three fifty three hundred fifty thousand dollars, and then you got to eventually find a practice or a hospital to work at, and maybe you want to set up an office somewhere, and then you got to get the money for the office. You know, every doctor I know doesn't start putting any real money in their pocket till they're you know, thirty seven or eight years old. But it's their calling. You know, so many that people I know have called to protect and serve and they just love law enforcement. They're great at it because they love it. But you know, when you become a cop or a fireman or a first respond or that's saving lives every day, you usually know going in that you're not going to get rich. Hopefully you get paid what you deserve. And teachers are the same thing. Nurse is the same thing. People are called to do these jobs. They want to find a good profession and also serve other people and save lives. And you know, it's amazing, they're amazing. Where would we ever be without them. You don't go into the military as an enlisted guy to get rich. Even if you go to officer Training school or one of the academies. You're still not going to get rich in the military, but you're willing to go knowing that the call may come and you're going to be shot at and putting your life on the line. It's incredible the choices that people make in a free society. And then other people. I know guys that work on Wall Street. That's the last place I'd ever want to work. But they do good work too. They provide the capital, a lot of them, for people that have great ideas and they want to create goods and services and expand and grow the economy. And if they're really successful, like you know one of these big companies, Amazon, Google, whatever, you know, they hire a lot of people and hopefully they treat those people right. Other people like me find out at some point in life. I found out I can talk and not stop and and I have a passion for politics. I've had it since I'm all ten or eleven. You know, my house, it wasn't shut off, the TV was shut that blankety blank radio off now and go to bed. I used to stay up late at night listen to the early pioneers of talk radio. Wasn't like it is today where and I just I just They'd tell me to shut it off. I'd shut it off. I'd hear my father walked around the house like this, Okay, I'd hear him coming, so I'd said he could come back, and I'd say, he goes, you have that radio on. I turned it off. He'd go back in his room. I put it back on, and then he might hear something. He comes, Did you just sit down, I'm trying to sleep. Leave me alone. But I'd stay up late at night like I do now. And I don't know. It's just the way I've lived my life. This is what you know. Sixty four people in a day signing up for what would ultimately be the destruction of the system that has created a wealth and a standard of living that is the envy of the world. And I know what it's based on. It's been tried in many forms, in many ways before you examine this Green New Deal in detail. Ten years, in ten years, every American is going to be the biggest mobilization of American society, the likes of which we've not seen since World War Two. You look at the former Soviet Union, look at Venezuela. You look at Cuba, you look at any of these. You know you have a little bit of success, you might say in a small Scandinavian country, but not really the way it's described. You know, Canada, you keep hearing we need a single payer system, which is what Kamala Harris is proposing. That mean would metacare for all, Well, that's thirty three trillion dollars and you can't have private health insurance. Mean you're forced into the government system and if it goes wrong like Obamacare, that's that's what you got. Then they're not gonna pay doctors. Then they're not gonna want to pay pharmaceutical companies. Then they're gonna start cutting costs, and then they're gonna you know, here we are, we're gonna be discussing while you have outlived like the NIH in Great Britain National Health Services Institute they have, they have national healthcare. Guess what if you have outlived your life expectancy, you need hip surgery, knee surgery, forget it, it's not gonna happen. You'll be denied. I know somebody that is in Canada right now. I got a note from a really good friend of mine who's a doctor in New York. He happens to be a brain surgeon, and he sends me this note the other day and I'm reading it. I'm like, You've gotta be kidding me. This is this is not possible. Hang on, let me see if I can find it in the text message that he sent me, because and this guy's the nicest guy. Here it is let's see, all right, here it is. He goes um, he goes the single paper ball. Okay, no, that's all right. He writes it this. I just talked to a twenty eight year old man who is Canadian, lives in Vancouver, probably has a brain tumor, and he's a brain surgeon. This guy, I actually have sat and watched him rip people's face. Remember the pictures I saw you, I showed you, Linda, Yes, thank you for sharing that. Oh now, everybody, when I go into the operating room and I'm watching this thing, well, first of all, I watched him save the life of somebody who had had a type of brain cancer radiation, and unfortunately the radiation created such damage that within six months this poor guy was going to be paralyzed, probably dead. He wouldn't last a year. And as a result of the skill on the train of my friend. He lived anyway, So he sends me this not just talked to a twenty eight year old man who is Canadian, lives in Vancouver, probably has a brain tumor and has speech, balance and memory issues. Over the past two months, he's seen many doctors and a neurosurgeon who wants to watch it, I mean do nothing. Watch it means do nothing. He sent me as MRI and he needs a brain biopsy now. He writes, it's a simple decision. To wait is unconscionable, and he writes the only reason he hasn't had it done is because the outcome of a brain tumor will be no different with or without a biopsy, sooner rather than later. In other words, he writes, it's a cost savings decision. And he writes, forget the fact that guy's twenty eight in this young man's life is on hold, and he's psychologically stressed beyond belief, as is his family, and it's saving quote the states money is more important than this guy's brain tumor. This is what he's writing me. He's now considering flying to New York. Let us do the biopsy now. I'm willing to pay for it out of my own pocket. He's not rich, and so much for socialist government control healthcare for all, he writes me. I has wrote him back, I said, let me help you. I'll be glad to pay for the guy's expenses. That's awesome that you can save this guy's life. But this is what they're offering, and I'll get to that when we get back. It is what you are hearing. They are playing on fears that you have, and they are promising you things they will never ever, ever, ever be able to deliver. It is the same flawed, failed, ideological philosophical failure socialism, redistribution, statism, communism, call it whatever you want. It leads to poverty. The reason even poor people in America have a lot of stuff is because where that richer country.

Now to find a location or you just go to expresspros dot com or download the Express Jobs App. It's time to get to know Express all right, twenty five now until the top of the hour. And what's a pet? I wanted you to know why I think that this is a real threat. And you know people can laugh at it. You know the Macazio Cortez. You know you got sixty four people signing on in a day in the House, another nine in the Senate. As long as Trump is president, this is not gonna happen. But what happens if it's Elizabeth Warren who wants to now unconstitutionally go back and after you paid your taxes, now if you save some money, she wants to tax it again or Medicare for all, which you know Bernie supports and Kamala Harris supports. What have they become president? Where are they all going to stand on this Green New deal? They're gonna love all of this, And I know that from a from the past experience. You know, we're learning a lot about Democrats. You know, for example, all the Democrats that said, I believe in the Kavanaugh case, I believe, I believe, I believe. You know, the press conferences, they hadn't even met the woman up until that point, but politically they wanted to hurt. They acted like they cared about the issue of women in the case of Justice Kavanaugh. And then more women come forward. See it's there's more women. And then they held back the information for maximum dramatic impacts so that it would hopefully sway the public that this guy was a monster. And then Michael Avanati jumps in with the Julie sweat Nick and you know, almost every other weekend the punch was spiked and the boys would make these teenage girls unconsciousness and line up in the hall and take their turns, you know, gang raping these these young girls, raping these It happened a lot, but nobody ever told the least their mom, their dad, a teacher, counselor, or nobody. And then the story changed. Well, I never saw him spike the punch, but I saw that he was near the punch bowl and he had a red solo cup in his hand that he might have offered to a girl. Well, it wasn't lyned in the hall, but I saw him in the hall, and that was that. Nobody corroborates anything, you know. And I said it, where is the due process? How do you guilt by accusation? That that's not going to work in this society. And so many Democrats are acting that they cared about the women. I haven't heard any of these same democrats say, I believe when it comes to the woman accusing the Lieutenant governor in the Commonwealth of Virginia of a sexual assault, that a violent, forced sex act that he forced her to perform on him. Not a word, no, no, I believe. No. They've kind of been slowly embarrassed into saying some things, and every woman has the right to be heard, but not I believe notice that word's missing. And so you think they care about the issue. No, that they can't bludgeon or conservative or Republicans. So it's a muted response. You know, we kept hearing for years before the shutt and what about the furloughed workers that aren't going to get paid? But that and so the President says, will come on over, will negotiate a deal. They didn't bother to negotiate a deal. They send aids to sit for a weekend with the Vice president. They were never serious about making a deal on immigration. President goes out publicly and says, I'm willing to put what they say they want DACA on the table, deal with the dreamer issue on the table. They don't want that either. By the way, I hear the deal that is being worked on now as a disaster, an unmitigated desire, and everybody should stop wasting their time. But if they really cared about furloughed employees getting paid, and they really cared about dreamers and dhaka, and they once supported the wall when just a few years ago when a momp, they would have if they cared about the issue, they would have done it. This is politics. This is about bludgeoning Trump, just like they use the issues of the accusations against Cavanaught to bludgeon him and Trump at the same time. And then when it happens to one of their own, their silence is deafening. So it might seem like when Acasia Cortez is out there offering every American we're gonna first, we're gonna rebuild every home and every commercial building in America. Let's start with the Freedom Tower. In ten years, we're gonna how do you expect, We're gonna rebuild every building in New York City? Good luck with that. In ten years every residential home. What maybe they'll allow retro fitting at whose cost? Who's paying for that new air conditioning, new heating, new duck work. Knew all of this cost real money. But it's a guaranteed bill of rights. You know you're gonna get paid leave and medical and medical leave and vacations. Well do I get to go to Hawaii? And how long? And retirement security? Everybody gets it. You get even now, We'll even pay for college, Womb to the tomb, cradle to grave, peace and all of your worries and anxieties are taken away because the God of government, the tyranny of government, is coming to the rescue. Guaranteed healthy food, guaranteed access to nature, clean water, guaranteed economic security for all, all who are unable to work, all who are unwilling to work. What these promises? Listen, I get it. So many of us. At times we are not in the best economic position. I relate to it. I sympathize. I've been there for long periods of time in my life. I didn't come I mentioned yesterday. I grew up in a fifty by one hundred lot thirteen thousand dollars post World War two home, a small cape with you, three older sisters in one one bathroom. I made my money myself since I was eight years old, delivering papers, and then I worked every job imaginable, always had. One day, I'll bring on my best friend, my buddy, John Gomez, wads of cash with me, and nobody school could understand how I always had so much money in my pocket. It was my money. I worked for it. I made deals all the time. I John's father made the best grilled chicken in the world, and so John sick of his father's grilled chicken. So I'd give him money to buy the crappy pizza, lunch at the cafeteria, and yodels, and I'd eat his chicken. It was a great deal for both of us. But how is it that even when I had no money. I remember when I lived in Rhode Island, and that's when I began my construction years. I thought I wanted to build houses, you know, as a carpenter's apprentice. Once fell off a roof three stories, busted my arm, dislocated my elbow, busted up all my teeth. I played hockey all these years. All my friends lose teeth. Now finally I bust up my teeth falling off a roof that was great. Didn't have any health insurance. Made a deal with the doctor. He wanted to do an operation remove the radio head. I wouldn't let him. I got hired at a local shipyard because I had no money. This this big guy, his name is Mac you know, hires me at the you know for seven bucks an hour. At the time, I had been making five bucks an hour five twenty five as a carpenter's apprentice. And literally sees me walking and holding my armies. What the hell's wrong with your arm? I tell him I just busted. I said, I really need this job. He goes, you see that house, that's mister Blown's house. This is Blount Marine. If he sees you with your arm this way, I'm gonna get my ass chewed out. You better hide for the next week and a half, two weeks, and it better be better by then. And the guy was nice enough to let me work there. I needed the money at two hundred dollars an old stone bank. I lived in Warren, Rhode Island. I know what it's like everybody. So many people overspend and have debt, credit card debt, college debt, whatever debt you get into. And you know, but I survived. I mean when I then I started my own painting company, painted houses. Then my buddy Andy fee and taught me to hang wallpaper, and I hung wallpaper, made a lot of money doing that, And I went back to remodeling houses because I really liked that, and I learned a lot of finish work. At one point I learned not a late tile. And the point of the story is, you know, I didn't have anything guaranteed. Neither did any of you. Most of you didn't come from money. Most people I know did not come from money. With a silver spoon in your mouth, not that it makes you know money to me, I always used the phrase with my staff when I give them a nice bonus every year. Money is freedom. Save your money. And at that time of my life, I bought a two hundred dollars former Providence Gas company van. It would once been run on natural gas, converted over back to gasoline. Is the best two hundred bucks I ever spent that thing. Never. All I did was tune it up and changed the brakes once in a while, put on new tires. That was it. Kept that thing forever. I bought a Ford Maverick nineteen seventy one at at a three speed on the column. I switched it with a friend of mine and at a three speed we put it, you know as a shift down below regular shift. And I take cars and I paint them in the barn that I rented with some buddies and we do the body work, and I'm and hailed. Once this paint called Imron, My lungs burned out for three months because I didn't have the proper respiration. That was stupid, you know, but you look at them when you ask, for example, well what else does it and how are we gonna have this green deal? Well, she writes, we aren't sure we're gonna fully be able to get rid of farting cows because they emit CO two gases and airplanes that fast. But they want to get rid of airplanes and you have to do. They want to get rid of nuclear power, and they want to guarantee all of this. Just trust us. And they even admit if every billionaire and company came together and we're willing to pour all the resources they have at their disposal into this investment, the aggregate value of the investments they could make would not be sufficient. Well, then how are you gonna pay for it? Well, don't worry, We're not. That's not a part of the equation. You know, we didn't worry about paying for World War two? Was the answer. At the end of the day. This is an investment in our economy. It's not about how we'll pay for it. What do you mean it's not about it? How is every American going to pay to rebuild their house? And every business person? What they play on? Your fear? What if I get old? What's gonna happen. I don't have enough money saved. Um, how am I going to pay for this? How am I going to pay for that? Now we have social Security, we have a safety net. It's not the best in the world, but I'm just telling you what will happen. The net result is just like we're witnessing, states now lose massive parts of their population. New York a great example, tens and tens of thousands every year. Same New Jersey. Same same with Illinois, same with California. Why because people have had it high taxes, burdensome regulation, they can't afford to do business there. Wi are states that have no state income taxes, like Florida and Texas doing so well because they're smart enough to elect people that don't allow as state income tax. You nearly blew it in Florida the last time, thank god De Santis one Andrew gillim would have raised your taxes dramatically. And the good part is four hundred thousand people additional people that now are paying taxes on other things. In Florida, they have, you know, property taxes still at a much lower rate than New York, you know, And this is this is the lie of socialism. There's just they will take away your fear, eliminate nuclear energy. Eventually they're gonna ban cars in the combustion engine. They're gonna rebuild every home in America, every building in America, eliminate air travel. But you've got a government guaranteed job, free education, even college. You know, a healthy diet, a house. You got free housing, free money. Whether you're willing or unwilling to work, it doesn't matter. But at the end of the day, why it fails is simple. Every single human being was born with a purpose and a cause for their creation, and every person has talents. That's why education means to bring forth from within from the Latin and what that means is is that for you to have a full life, striving and digging deep, finding whatever your skill are, why you were built, why you were on this earth. Why the Bible will say God knew you before you were even conceived, and the hairs of your head were counted at that point. If you do your part and find those talents you have and everyone listening to me has them, and you bring those talents to fruition, and you figure out a way to serve others by providing goods and services that people want, need and desire. You're going to increase the standard of living in the world, and you are gonna make money for you and your family. It's a win win. It is the perfect, most just system that has created. Even the poorest Americans have TVs and stereos and iPhones and refrigerators and freezers, washers and dryers. Not everyone in other poor countries says anything like that. You've got to live and you've got to find you know what you love, what your passion is, and what you're good at and why, and when you do it won't be worked to you. Just be willing to serve other people, producing goods and services that people want, need and desire. That has why this is why we're the economic envy of the world.

The conservative policies of Reagan and Trump have unleashed the power of freedom and wealth creation, job creation, and America being the economic powerhouse again. It's not an accident. Conservatism works alright, hour two on this Friday, eight hundred nine four one. Sean is our toll free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program. All right, our Hannity watch on the deep state. There has been massive, massive developments on all fronts. Number one, Senator Richard to quote him, we don't have anything that would suggest there was collusion by the Trump campaign and Russia, after too exhaustive investigations that in which that committee interviewed hundreds of witnesses in multiple countries, hundreds of thousands of pages. Well, what is Richard Burr saying. He's saying that there was no collusion. And by the way, you know, we've been telling you that for a long time. And what's interesting in the findings of the Senate Intel Committee and Senator Burr, it's probably more reliable in terms of anything that Robert Mueller would come up with, because the Intel Committee has access to the highly classified intelligence from the agencies that Mueller doesn't have access too. And Burr also revealed that Christopher Steele refused to be interviewed because Steele fabricated the docier. How do we know, because when he was in an interrogatory in Great Britain under oath facing perjury charges, he said, no, I never corroborated its raw intelligence. Maybe fifty fifty, So nobody has ever heard from those sources anywhere. And remember Chuck Grassley suggested Steele, you know, pretty much made it up at a whole cloth, and it's a disinformation campaign because he hated Donald Trump. Now add that to what we already know. We know Fox News confirmed, and Greg Jarrett had confirmed, and Catherine Harritge had confirmed. The new details between the contact between the DOJ, the fourth highest official at the time twice since demoted, Bruce Orr, and the special counsel lead counsel prosecutor that's Bob Muller's pit bull, Andrew Weissman. And we've confirmed that in recent congressional testimony. Or testified that he met with Weissman in August twenty sixteen and he shared information from Christopher Steele and specific information related to the Russian government's attempt to interfere in the presidential election. But remember Or also told all the top DOJ and FBI officials involved in this this coup, if you will, that in fact, it was unverified, not corroborated, paid for by Hillary, and that Christopher Steele hated Donald Trump. So you know, I think the Criminal Division officials also wanted to make sure that the criminal national security parts of the FBI were talking or communicating. Now, in spite of all of that, well, then they end up putting forward this stasier, using that information, not listening to Bruce Or's admonition, never confirming or corroborating or verifying, and they used it as the bulk of information a spy on the Trump campaign through an associate by the name of Carter Page. Now we also learned from the great reporting of John Solomon that Robert Muller, when he was the FBI director now the head of the Special Council, that he was actually once hauled before the nation's secret intelligence court, the FISA Court, and he was asked to address a large number of instances in which the FBI withheld exculpatory evidence, in other words, cheated or held back sensitive surveillance warrants or applying for them with information that was not complete that they knew that was not complete. Some seventy five instances were told. This happened most of the sixteen years, this closed or encounter escaped public notice because of the secrecy of the FISA Court. Now we have a new development, and that is shifty Schiff Oh Now we find out that he's been meeting with Glenn Simpson, a Fusion GPS and Beautiful Aspen, which raises the question about his conflict of interest in all of this. And while Simpson and Schiff, I know in the case a Shift in particular, he's a known liar, you know, so we didn't talk about anything of substance. It was at the time when Glenn Simpson would be testifying before the House Intel Committee, which is Shift's committee. And now we see that Adam Schiff is trying to get some of those resistant holdovers from the Obama administration that stayed in the Trump White House to go work for him. Why because they've been inside as his personal spies the whole time. All Right, Here to talk about all of this, we have David Shone, who is a civil liberties attorney, criminal defense attorney, Sidney Powell, author of the best selling book License to Lie, and also herself former prosecutor, and somebody who's been very outspoken about the corruption in the Department of Justice, senior policy adviser for America. First, Sidney, let me start with you. I mean the revelation that Robert Muller during his tenure as an FBI director was hauled before the court, and all these issues of withholding exculpatory evidence, well, you described in your book License to Lie. That that explains maybe why he had no compunctions about hiring Andrew Weisman as a pit bull, because he went through the same experience. Oh, he knows exactly who and what mister Weisman is, Sean. He's been protecting and promoting mister Weisman for at least two decades. He had a role in picking him for the Enron Task Force to begin with, and then brought him back into the FBI to be his general counsel and deputy director, even after we filed a grievance against mister Weisman that laid out all his efforts to hide evidence that showed the defendants in the Meryl case for innocent, after he destroyed Arthur Anderson by making up a crime, after he made up a crime against four Meryl executives and sent them to prison for a year while he hit the evidence that showed they were innocent. I mean, Muller knows exactly who and what mister Weisman is. And as soon as I heard that Paul Manafort's home had been rated in the middle of the night and his wife searched as she laid in the bed. I knew that was Weisman's prosecutorial terrorists. That's his standard operating procedure. Why why would you to dehumanize and objectify and terrorize a defendant is what he's going to do. Why why is that they're chosen tactic? He's not El Choppa, He's not a mafia member, He's not a killer. Um. I mean, as a part of regular order, tell me if I'm wrong. Isn't usually the case and a relatively you know, a non violent crime such as Roger Stone is being charged with. I mean, you have amphibious vehicles in the backyard and his water You've got you know, you've got these guys from in the canal, Yeah, frogmen in the canal. You know, you've got armored vehicles out front, twenty seven guys pre dawn raid fully you know, swat clothing to the max. I mean, what were they thinking here that Roger Stone and his suit was going to come out and start blasting. No, it's all for show and intimidation and to send a message writ large to anyone who dares stand up and and challenge them. It's just a prosecutorial terrorist tactic. David, what's your take on It's the dangerous thing to do too, because it puts the agents there in danger. They're more in danger of getting shot by one of themselves than anything else. Not critical. The agents, they don't have the option of saying no. I mean, they're given an order. They have to do their job or else they're gonna lose their job. So I can't blame them. But this order had to come from somebody. And I assume if it's you believe it's Weissman, because those are past tactics. Doesn't that also mean that Muller signed off on it. Oh? Yeah, Muller signed off on it, and I would guess that Christopher Ray signed off on it. Had grief, David Shone, You've been a criminal defense attorney and a civil liberties attorney for many years. What do you think of these tactics? Yeah, it's a typical Weisman, no question about it. And every one of these cases the lawyer would make an arrangement to self surrender a defendant like this. Look the proof of it is Afterwards, the judge gave a two hundred fifty thousand dollars personal signature bond. There's no danger here. Let me get back to your larger point about Weissman, though you made talked about a lot of evidence have about Weissman, bruce Or and all of that. In my view, at this point, if there's a defendant who's willing to stand up to Muller and actually fight the charges, he or she immediately should move to disqualify Weisman from any prosecution. But beyond that, moved to a dismiss the indictment. The fact that Weisman even confirred or sits on this investigative team to require the indictment to be dismissed. I'll tell you why. Under six hundred point one of the Special Council Regulations regulations developed under the Clinton administration supported by Eric Holder and Janet Reno. Under six hundred point one, the decision was made to appoint a special counsel because the Department of Justice had a conflict of interest. You now have shown that almost a year before Mueller was appointed, Bruce Or in the Department of Justice was meeting with Andrew Weissman in the Department of Justice to go over this stuff. Andrew Weisman, who at the time and remained a financial and otherwise supporter of Hillary Clinton politically motivated, so that conflict was there, and that's why a special counsel, supposedly why a special counsel was appointed. So there he ought to be disqualified from anything to do with it, and of course in the Stone case, Jeanie Ree has to be disqualified. It's outrageous that the person who defended Hillary Clinton is now prosecuting a case in which Hillary Clinton's emails are an issue. No one could have had any confidence. But the look, there have been attempts by some to question the authority of the appointment of the special counsel, and none of those legal avenues have worked. That once a different constitutions, they took a different constitutional approach, which also has some validity the appointment's clause argument. This is a little different case here. This is a clear conflict of interest because you've exposed this or Weissman connection. Weissman's an integral part of the team. Some have even reported that he's actually running it now instead of Muller. I think it's worse than that, Sean. I think it's it's there should be a motion to dismiss all the indictments in each case because of egregious government misconduct from the kids go. I mean, yeah, we know now from Comey's own admissions that there was no crime when they opened the files on the four individuals to begin with Manafort, Flynn, Papadopoulos, and whoever the fourth one was. And yeah, yeah, and there was nothing, no crime when they handed it off to Bob Muller. That's counter to the regulations. On top of that, you have the bogus FISA warrant applications. All of those should have been thrown out and everything related to them. And Weisman, this is so important. Weisman was not in the hierarchy that was supposed to get the information from Bruce or So there is a whole cabal there that is doing this all under the radar and counter to Department of Justice policy to begin with. But he also have to realize here, I think which is very crucial, is that everybody knew that Hillary paid for the dossier. They knew that that this was a foreign agent that hated Donald Trump. Uh, we're not even talking about the campaign finance violations when the money was funneled through a law firm to an op research group. But they knew all it was unverified. Now, Comey's timeline is interesting in particular on this because Comy signed off on the first FISA application that was in October twenty sixteen President elect Trump and Trump Tower was told by Comy it's salacious but unverified. Well, if it was unverified, how did he sign off on it to get a FISA warrant just a few months earlier? Exactly? That was a false statement to a cord for which mister Comy should be held accountable. And of course nothing's been done to him because we have a two tiered system of justice, which means we have no justice at all. But Weissman had to be part of the cabal, the small group that was that was conducting this coup. Here's here's the bottom line. You've got a crew there to accomplish now through Muller, what they couldn't accomplish it the ballot box. There's the question of destroying Trump and everyone around him for the next election or for whatever purposes. This is exactly what the Supreme Court has said, we can't ever have, we can't ever have a private agenda exercising itself through the criminal process. That's the case of nineteen eighty seven called Young versus United States x ray L Vatan, in which they tried to use people who represented a civil party as prosecutors. We have a constitutional right to an impartial prosecutor embedded in the Constitution Court State in Burger in nineteen thirty five. It's a fundamental principle. That's why you can't have people like this operating their own agenda undermining the true criminal process. All right, we got to take a break here. We'll come back more with David Show and Sidney Powell. Hannity Watch on the Deep State continues. When we get back, We're going to open up phones. Take a lot of calls today on this Friday, eight hundred nine for one Shawn Tolfree telephone number. I have a very shocking story in our news roundup segment today as it relates to you know this now I guess obsession. We now have eight states in the process of trying to follow New York and Virginia, and of course the Senate voting this week not to protect children that are a lot born alive and even during botched abortions, they they wouldn't protect their right to get medical care. Way do you hear their story coming up. All right, as we continue with David Shown and Sydney Powell at the bottom of the hour. I mean the theatrics when they were interviewing at the one of the House committees today, the Attorney General Whittaker Man just it became a circus. We'll get to that at the bottom of the hour, David, real quickly. These people are going to be held accountable. I don't think so. I mean, I hope they will be. We'll see what it's up to, mister Barr. That's the bottom line at this point. Just a bar has the authority and the obligation to hold them accountable. What do you think, Sydney, He certainly has the obligation and if he doesn't exercise it, death for the rule of law in this country. And they're going to be an awful lot of Americans very upset. I don't see how he can hold himself out to be Attorney General if he doesn't, Do you have any hope in Hohober or the Inspector General Horowitz, David will they say Hoober is really completely ineffective so far, at least the Inspector General is given full rain. Would be disgusted by what he's seem We've seen some of that already, but we need something with even more teeth than that. Well, I mean, the Inspector General doesn't have any authority, and I think he's somewhat compromised. I mean, I think he just doesn't see it or get at all. His last report was way too watered down in the conclusions. There was some good meat in it, but he was not as full throated by any means as he should have been. And I don't expect anything more this time around either. Right, Thank you votes for being with us eight hundred nine pot one Sean Tolfrey telephone number. When we come back, we're going to get to the absolute circus at the hearings for the Acting ag Whittaker that went on earlier today, and much more and a story you don't want to miss in our news Roundup hour at the top of the hour. Straight ahead rereading Greg Jarrett's book on the COMBI investigation into the Clinton emails and the Uranium one deal and the Muller investigation into the Trump campaign, and in it to mister Jarrett meticulously documents case after case a political bias by the FBI of illegal conduct at the highest levels of the Department of Justice, destruction of evidence, possible obstruction of justice by mister Coomi himself, perjury by top DOJ officials, prosecuted, prosecutorial misconduct, and political bias throughout Muller's team. Now, if the RUSS investigation was initiated because of a patently false dossier, why aren't we seeing an equally aggressive investigation into these very meticulously documented charges, Congress As you mentioned at the beginning, we do conduct our investigations into pendant of political interference at the Department of Justice. That that's not what let me finish. Let me finish. Wonderance of evidence is telling me from sources such as this one well, and specifically related to the document you just described that it's the subject of an Inspector General's review investigation together with the US Attorney from the District of Utah that was appointed by General Sessions to look into and review certain matters that this committee had asked the review. Can we expect a full, complete and aggressive investigation of charges of wrongdoing by officials in the FBI and the Department of Justice on these matters, Congressman, I can assure you that any allegation of misconduct by an employee the Department of Justice will be looked into thoroughly. All right. That was the acting Attorney General, Matthew Whittaker. Now William Barr is going to be He's going to be likely confirmed by the Senate next week. I don't see any obstacles at all. And it was a very hostile scene all day there. And he was very clear that he had never spoken to the President Trump as Attorney General, acting Attorney General, any senior White House official about the Mueller investigation. He said he doesn't believe he briefed any third party outside the DOJ regarding the Mueller investigation. And you know, even when as far as to say he never ever, ever tried to interfere in any way with what Muller is doing in spite of the lies that are often told all over cable news and suggestions in the New York Times and the Washington Post. I mean, there, our friend Greg Jarrett got a plug. That was Congressman Tom McClintock asking really pertinent questions that we've been asking because all of this has documenting, documented evidence. This phony dossier, Clinton pay for it, Russian lies is used to bludge in. How many innocent people, never confirmed, never verified, used as a visor warrant to spy on an opposition party candidate and campaign, and then used to bludge in a president after the fact. By the way, David Shone stays with us for one quick second here, I know he wanted a comment about this. You were watching these hearings today, what are your thoughts. I think it's an absolute not only a circus. It's the raises a real separation of powers issue. I want to make this point clearly. Under these Special Counsel regulations, under the Clinton era of Special Council regulations, there is a considential relationship between the Attorney General and special counsel. It's codified, is deemed the Special Council's deemed a confidential employee. Under six hundred point three. The Attorney General has the obligation to question any investigative or press extorial step and to stop it in a confidential manner with the Special Counsel. And finally, the special Counsel's report must remain confidential under the regulations. Playing political football with this demanding this one disclosed it and that will disclose it. The Attorney General has the authority under the regulations that the Clinton era gave them under Holder supported it. Janet Reno, these are fundamental principles that they're playing political. Reno and Holder also apply the confidentiality well when it suited them, but they emphasize the important Neo Catioll drew them up, and they emphasize the importance of the authority of the Attorney General and that special relationship not one where the discussions are to be questioned and aired openly by Congress. So that would mean the Attorney General, if he follows DOJ policy, that we would never it would never make the light of day any Muller report. And he has the authority that they're now questioning. Whittaker has the authorities acting, and bar will have it to rein them in. That's what's appropriate to question things like the draconian steps they took in the Rogers Stone raid. That's his obligations to question these things and demand to stop to them when they're against the constitution and against DJ polity. All right, David Schwen, thanks for sticking with us. So it began, it got hostile yesterday and as they were threatening the acting Attorney General with a subpoena. He had already agreed to go, but then once they said they're going to subpoena him after he agreed to go. Because there are certain moments executive privilege that an attorney general cannot disclose to Congress legally, but unless the president waives that right, that's the president's executive privilege. Matt Whittaker, as the acting Age, does not, of his own right have the ability to not or to assume that he can waive executive privilege. So they're asking him to do something that has never been done before. Whittaker is ignoring them and not answering their stupid questions in the lead up to all of this. But anyway, when pushed, the issue that matters the most, and that is whether or not Matt Whittaker is acting Age. Did he speak to Trump senior White House officials about the Mueller investigation. Here's what he said. I'm sorry, yes or no question. Have you communicated anything you learned in that briefing to about the investigation to President Trump? Yes or no, mister Chairman. As I've said earlier today in my opening remarks, I do not intend today to talk about my private conversations with the President of the United States. But to answer your question, I have not talked to the President United States about the Special Council's investigation. So the answers no, thank you to any other White ass officials. Again, mister Chairman, As I mentioned in my opening statement, I do not intend today to talk about my private conversations with the President nor White House officials. But I will tell you consistent one of our what I've already said, I have not talked about the Special Council's investigation with senior White House officials. All right, So then the next issue comes up because these conspiracy minded democrats, I guess they've been watching too much cable news on fake news CNN and MSNBC, because you know, one of these days we're gonna go back and we're going to hold them all accountable for every single solitary instance in which they reported something that was false, that they breathlessly, hysterically ran with things that are not true, created false hope in the eyes of their and the ears of their listeners and viewers about things that were never ever going to happen, like, for example, oh well, Whittaker, Now it's out of Rod Rosenstein's hand, he must be interfering with the Muller investigation. Well, he was asked that question. Here's Whittaker's answer. All I'm asking you is have you been asked to approve or disapproved a request or action to be taken by the Special Council point of order was chairman, I've asked the question when the voder was chairman was not order until the question is and we're not operating under the five minute rule anymore than point of the witness will answer the question. I want to be very specific about this, mister Chairman, because I think it's going to a lie a lot of fears that have existed among this committee, among the legislative ranch largely, and maybe among some American people. We have followed the Special Counsel's regulations to a t. There has been no event, no decision that has required me to take any action, and I have not interfered in any way with the Special Council's investigation. There you go. Now he was asked about the issue of what took place with Roger Stone. You gotta remember what a process crime is. I mean, there are real criminals out there, real dangerous people that if you know, if you've got el chopo. If you've got some mob figure, hitman of some kind, a drug dealer, you know, there's there's a time and a place for amphibious vehicles in the backyard wherever the water way was where Roger Stone lives, and frogmen in the water just in case he runs out the back door and goes swimming in the middle of the arrest. But they were there, and of course armored vehicles were there, and then you had twenty seven arms swat team in full gear, you know, guns ablazing and pre dawn raid. For a guy that comes out in his gym shorts. They could find out very easily that they didn't have a passport. So he's not a flight risk in that regard. But you know what is his big crime here? Lying the Congress. That's all it is. There's not one thing in the Roger Stone indictment that talks about Russia, any influence about Russia. You know, the only mistake, baby, that he made is he goes before Congress and tries to testify. And if you don't testify perfectly, they get to be the judge and jury about whether or not it's a liar. You just didn't remember or something. I ask all of you, you know, think back two years ago, twenty sixteen, before the election. Probably a lot of you would remember where you wore an election night. I know where I was in front of four TVs, fifteen computers alone, acting like a maniac. So that's where I was. But if you ask me where I was the day before, no idea. If you asked me about an email in twenty sixteen, I'm gonna look at you like, are you crazy? How I don't remember an email I sent yesterday or a text message I sent yesterday. But Roger Stone didn't delete any of that information, didn't acid wash his hard drives, apparently didn't get rid of his phones because they were able to retrieve the text messages and emails. And he as I understand it, handed all that over anyway, and there's CNN right outside the door. Anyway. Listen to Whittaker saying he's concerned about how CNN found out about this. Are you familiar from public reports or otherwise that a CNN reporter was count outside of Stone's house when the FB arrested him. This wouldn't be part of the investigations. I am, I am aware of that, and it was. It was deeply concerning to me as the how CNN found out about that. Yeah, it should be deeply concerning. Look, this is going to be a moment of truth. We're gonna see if William Barr is I know, Joe Degenivis swears by him and others swear by him. I don't know William Barr. I just don't have a gut sense of who he is and whether or not he has the willingness to do what is necessary here. All right now is welcome back. As we continue now we're discussing this Whittaker testimony from earlier today in a double standard in our justice system. If we do if we follow the law, if we have equal justice under the law, if we believe in the rule of law and the Constitution, which is the foundation of our rule of law, then certain things are going to happen. And it's gonna begin with Hillary Clinton, because that's where it all gets started. And it's going to deal with whether or not she really violated the Espionage Act and whether or not Hillary Clinton willfully purposely put classified top secret special access programming information on a separate server which she knew was not She was not able to do. It's a crime. It's a felony. It's the Espionage Act. And the reason is because if you look at what happened next the investigation into the handling of this classified, top secret information that even James Comey acknowledges is true in that infamous July fifth, twenty sixteen press conference where he just decided he would take on his own the authority of the Attorney General at the time, who was also compromised Lauretta Lynch because she had met on the tarmac in Phoenix with Bill Clinton. And just before that, you know, James Comey is testified under oath that well, I've never written an exoneration before, I've done an investigation when we have evidence that shows that's not true either. And I thought lyon to Congress was such a big crime because that's what got Michael Kone charged at least one of his charges, one of Roger Stone's charges, and other people are being charged. We know a whole bunch of people that have lied to Congress. You know, that's the question here. I guess we only go after people we don't like or anybody associated with Trump. Everyone else gets a free pass. But they were writing the exoneration long before the investigation and even interviewing Hillary and seventeen other people. And when they finally interviewed Hillary Clinton, it was July second, twenty sixteen, and the exoneration was all set to go. In the fourteen minute speech of Jim Comey, you know, sounding like she broke every law in the book, but never mind, no serious prosecute or whatever, prosecute this which is not true. That's where you're gonna start. Then you're gonna go. If you care about Russian collusion, then we can also look into the issues of Russia. All right, we'll look into uranium. One. William Campbell was Mueller's spot inside a Putin's ring to get a foothold in America's uranium market, and we held they knew. I don't know if he directly knew, but the FBI was told from one of their own that bribery, extortion, kickbacks, and money loandering was going on, and they still ended up Hillary one of the people the Scipius pord signing off on you know, twenty percent of America's uranium being going pretty much directly to Vladimir Putin or the phony dossier that Hillary paid for with Russian lies that were fed to the American people and then used for a FISA warrant to spy on the Trump campaign. You know, we're all the instances of investigations into this and committing a knowing fraud by so many of these people before a FISA court. They have one thing in common. They all hate Donald Trump, Page Struck, McCabe, Comey, and the rest of them. There's justice. We're going to have a constitutional republic. Better get to the bottom of it. Coming up next, our final News round up and Information Overload Hour. All right, News round Up, Information Overload Hour. You know, the President tweeting out, all right, the Democratic Party, the Radical Party, look at a Cassio Cortez, no airplanes. We're gonna rebuild every house in America, retro fit it. Guaranteed job, guaranteed wage, guaranteed family medical leave, guaranteed vacations, guaranteed retirement, guaranteed college, guaranteed healthy food. H if you have McDonald's stock, i'd worry. Guaranteed. I'm just kidding on that part. Guaranteed economic security for anybody that's unable to work, also for anyone unwilling to work. Guaranteed housing, healthcare, guaranteed everything, don't worry about paying for it all. What are we What are we up to now, Linda? I think it's like seventy House members and like ten senators that have a day are signing onto this insanity, Which is exactly why I've been warning you this new This is not the old Democratic Party. This is a new extreme radical socialist Democratic Party. Now. For example, we saw and the President tweeted out that this is a party of late term abortion. This is a party of higher taxes. Oh that's right, seventy to ninety percent, depending on which plan. And then Elizabeth Warren wanting to put a wealth tax on money you've already paid taxes on, or Medicare for all, which is thirty three trillion dollars, but you can't have your own medical care. I mean, these are the proposals, and it's only gonna get nuttier and more serious over time because you'll lose the election. That is what the country becomes. Nothing more sickening than hearing the New York legislature vote which allows abortion up until the time of birth, even until the ninth month. This is how they reacted in New York take a listen. Didn't have been happier Andrew Como, the governor dressing for the occasion in pink. How nice of him. And then it gets worse because it then moves to the Commonwealth of Virginia and we played you the testimony of the sponsor of the bill, this woman who at the same time was sponsoring a bill to protect the caterpillars that become butterflies. You can't you can't kill them. And when she's testifying, she said, oh, yeah, no, a woman even dilating can have an abortion. She would be her choice to have an abortion. And then the Governor Northam is asked about this and he gives this gruesome description of what would actually happen and what the law would actually allow. Um And I've got to warn you that this next half hour is going to be tough to listen to. So if you have kids in the car, you may want to be careful. But you know, here's here's the governor of Virginia, still not resigning over the blackface or this issue. Nobody calling for his resignation over what we heard him say here it is if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother. Oh and by the way, he's a pediatric surgeon. Those pictures of the person in blackface on his page and in a ku Klux Klan outfit, that's you know, he's a medical student. He's a pediatric doctor apparently. So let me understand this. So you know, will deliver the baby, will make sure the baby's comfortable, and after the baby's comfortable, then the mother's going to decide whether, if the baby's in need of medical attention, whether or not to help resuscitate the baby. Okay, there is a human, living soul that is apparently being kept comfortable, living on its own, a human being. And then well we'll let the mother decide does you want to keep it or not keep it? Then we'll have a discussion with the doctors and the mom. I don't know, maybe we'll go down to the Maybe we'll go down to the kitchen or the commissary in the hospital and see what that's like I mean, it is beyond gruesome. Now it's expanded. Let's see to Rhode Island in New Mexico and California. And oh now Massachusetts has gotten on board. They want a similar bill. It was a motion in the Senate to protect babies born alive from an abortion. Democrats wouldn't even let it come up for a vote. That would have offered protections for babies. It'll even botched abortions that lived. You don't think it happens, It did, it does. Now joining us is Melissa Odin. She is an abortion attempt survivor and by the way, gone on to live a great life. As I understand it, as two daughters of her own. She didn't miscarry one son. She speaks out loudly for the voiceless, and we also have with us. Doctor Levattino. Doctor Leverertino started doing abortions in nineteen seventy seven in New York State during his residency, graduated in nineteen eighty, went into private practice, first in Florida, then in New York. In five years, doctor Levattino he performed over twelve hundred abortions, including one hundred second trimester saline abortions and then later D and E abortions up to twenty four weeks, and they both joined us. Now, thank you for being with us. Thank you, you're welcome. Melissa Odin, So your mom tried to abort you, but you're alive. What happened, Well, I was the type of procedure doctor Leffattino did. I am a say, lean abortion survivor, and it was also in nineteen seventy seven, So you know, what I know is that my birth mother was nineteen years old, she was a college student, and she was actually forced into this abortion by her mother, my maternal grandmother, who was a nurse at the hospital where it was performed. So this type of procedure was meant to poison and scald me to death. And my medical records actually indicate that I soaked in this toxic selt solution for a five day period while they attempted to induce my birth mother's labor, and finally that fifth day they succeeded. I was expelled from the womb in the final step of that abortion procedure, and of course they thought I would be delivered as a successful abortion otherwise known as a deceased child but lo and behold, I was born alive. It's unbelievable. Now, did you ever confront your mother about this? Yeah? So I'm adopted and didn't know that I survived a sailed abortion until I was fourteen? How did you find out? Journey by complete accident? Really it was a pretty traumatic thing. But my sister, my older sister, let me know that there was more to the story of my life. And I sat our mother down and never expected for her to say, you know, you survived a failed abortions, and you know it's devastating. I wish the other side of this issue could understand how traumatic it is to live this kind of life. This is not an easy truth to live through or to live in this kind of Do you have any residual physical or mental impact from this another? Well, you're describing emotional, but are there any physical issues that you've had to deal with as a result of what you're describing is utter brutality? Right? Not long term? So when I first survived, they thought I had a fatal heart defect. There were arguments about whether I would be provided medical care. I've actually been contacted by nurses at that hospital who were there. I'm going to meet one of them next months, probably face to face for the first time. But I know that there were arguments that they laid me aside, that certain people didn't want to provide me medical care. And so when somebody actually did your mother your real mother ever apologized. Yeah. So I'm one of the few abortion survivors who's been connected with my biological mother. We actually have a really great relationship. We actually live in the same city. I have this very face filled life that God is blessed, so we live in very close proximity. I was just with her the other day. She's very sad about what was done to me, what was done to her. You know, she said her greatest regret in life is that she didn't run away from her own family to save me. In other words, it was her family pressure that she was pregnant, I assumed at a young age, and they were pressuring, right, and not just pressured, I mean literally her mother made that abortion take place. Wow, And that's what we don't talk about, right that so many times past, that's what it used to be. You know, nobody remembers what happened to one of the Kennedy kids. Putting a hospital and basically had a lobotomy. Um. Some horrific treatment of children, Haraldo at Willowbrook when he discovered with some disabled kids in the way they were treated like animals. It was horrible. Um, doctor Levittino, let me start with you. So you perform some twelve hundred abortions, including abortions as late as twenty four weeks, if if, if can, we can? Can a child now be sustained to twenty four weeks? With all the medical advancement we've made, they can? And this is this is what prompted Sandra Day O'Connor years ago to say that Roe versus Wade was on a collision course with itself because Roe the original decision in seventy three said that a state could prohibit late term abortions third trimester abortions, and they picked that third trimester because that was the beginning of viability in nineteen seventy three. Medical science has not stood still. Even the WHO at this point recognizes that fetal viability starts probably around twenty two weeks. Now. There are some that survived earlier, but survival is viability is now defined fairly consistently is about twenty two weeks of gestation. Well, let me ask you, so you did this for a number of years, twelve hundred abortions, one hundred second trimester saline abortions, DNE abortions up to twenty four weeks. How do you feel about having done that at this point? And then I'll ask you to describe it, which is why I gave a listener warning earlier. Obviously, I'm not happy that that's the decision I made. I stopped doing abortions over thirty years ago. How did you stop? What made you change your mind? My almost six year old daughter was killed in an auto accident. I'm so sorry. You know, when you do a DNA abortion, a second trimester DNA abortion, you are literally tearing a child to pieces with your own hands. And I did over one hundred and twenty of those procedures. I did do sailing abortions in my residency many years before, but those became passe. We don't do those anymore. But you know, after her death, and I never thought anything of it. I had gotten used to it. But after you lose a child, and I tell people, you know, if you have a child, you may think you have some idea of what that's like. If you haven't been through this yourself, you have no idea what it's like. I hope you never find out. And after Heather died, was struck by a car and killed, several weeks later, I showed up to do my first DNA abortion and literally tore out an arm or a leg in the instrument, got sick, but had to finish the abortion. I mean, once you start an abortion, you can't stop. You have to get two arms, two legs, and all the pieces because if you don't, your patient's going to come back infected, bleeding or worse. Well let me ask you. Okay, So in an early term abortion is what you're describing, At what point does it become you're talking about tearing out limbs, and when you take them out with these instruments of which you're ripping them out, I mean you see an arm, you see hands, you see fingers, you see toes, you see a head, you see eyes. I mean, what are you seeing when you're doing this? You got it? You just described it yourself. Now, the first trimester abortion, they're typically done either by suction, DNC or now the medical abortion, the pill are you for eighty six or mithopraxis is called. But even when you do a suction DNC, and you can only do that a few weeks after pregnancy, if I'm not mistaken, right well, right now, it's approved up to ten weeks from last menstrual period or eight weeks from conception. But in reality, mithoprax is being or are you forty six is actually being used, and the second trimester as well, So it's being used even at later stages of pregnancy at this point. But you know whether it's a suction DNC, I mean eight weeks from last menstrual period. From head to rump. That child is about one inch tall at twenty weeks. Look at your hands, from the middle of your middle finger down to your wrist. That's the crown rump size. From the head to the rump. You're counting legs of a baby at twenty weeks. And as I always tell my students and others, you know today you're an adult. Once you were a child, once you were a baby, once you were an inch tall, but it was always you. Now are you against all abortion? Do you believe life begins at conception? Well? I do, But if that's that's a much more a complicated um discussion we can have abortion in very limited circumstances. Uh, it's it's a long discussion. We probably don't even have time for on the program. Um, we have plenty of time. We have we're not in a Russia. Uh well, all right, we'll take a break and we'll come back. Uh. Melissa Odin is with us. She was her mother attempted an abortion on her. She survived it. And doctor Levittino is with us, and who himself performed twelve hundred abortions, including some as late as twenty four weeks into pregnancy, and uh regrets it. And with all the they talk about, you know, up to birth abortion now in seven eight states and the Senate not protecting children that survive abortions, I think it's appropriate. Eight hundred nine f one seas are told free telephone number you want to be a part of the program. Still not sick of making America's great again? Sean Hannity's on the air right now. This is what's right with America. You're listening to the Sean Hannity Show, all right, twenty five now till the top of the hour. Eight hundred nine four one sewn. If you want to be a part of the program. I've got to warn you that this next half hour is going to be tough to listen to. So if you have kids in the car, you may want to be careful, all right, with so much talk about abortion even when the birthing process stops. I have no idea. This sort of hit us all out of the blue, and New York State passed that law, and then followed by the Commonwealth of Virginia. And this is how the governor on a radio show describe what the law would allow in Virginia if it had gotten passed. It did get past in New York. This is what Governor Northam said at the time. If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother. What if the mother and the father may have a disagreement about resuscitation, We're gonna have a debate in that moment. This is they're talking about the birth process, abortion up to the birthing moment. Now joining us. We have Melissa Odin. She is an abortion attempt survivor. Mom tried to abort her and she has survived and has now two daughters of her own. And doctor Levattino is with us. He started doing abortions in nineteen seventy seven, performed around twelve hundred or more, including one hundred second trimester Salian abortions, later d and E abortions up to twenty four weeks. But he doesn't perform them anymore, and he's had a massive change of heart on it. This law now is spreading. We got New Mexico and California and Rhode Island and Massachusetts now and Vermont might be the most gruesome Doctor Levittino year, what they're doing in Vermont. Yes, John Bill H. Fifty seven. In Vermont, Section ninety four and ninety four states that a public entity shall not interfere with an individual's fundamental right to choose to obtain an abortion. No time limits, no supervision by the state. Nothing that's abortion right up to birth. And now you'll love this provision. You may not have heard this one. The next provision states, no state or local law enforcement shall prosecute an individual for inducing, performing or attempting to induce or perform the individual's own abortion. We won't prosecute you even if you try to abort yourself. So basically, you have now the right to kill yourself. Well, I'm going to tell you something. Inducing an abortion on your own could very well result in serious arm or death. Apparently the state of Romance not troubled by that. Really six stuff. Let me go back to Melissa. I want to so you describe you found out at fourteen? How did you find out exactly? My older sister was facing an unplanned pregnancy, was actually considering every option, which included abortion, and when our parents found out about that, they decided to tell her the story of my survival. When my parents adopted me, they knew that I had survived a failed abortion, that the doctors initially didn't think I would live for very long, that I would suffer from major disabilities. So my parents knew all that, but they didn't tell us until they told her, hoping that she would understand just what kind of decision she was facing in her life and what did she decide. She chose to carry him, parented him, went on and had other children. You know, I often tell people I know that was not easy for her, but she knows that it was worth it, and her kids know what an incredible sacrifice she made, how hard she worked. In a way, your life story saved the life of your nephew. Yeah, and ultimately he saved my life, and you know, I hope hundreds of millions of lives by allowing me to know the story of my survival. He was no accident. Yeah, you know. Um, and how old were you when you first met your birth mother and how did that come about? Yeah? So I started searching for her when I was about nineteen, didn't find her until I was thirty. Um, and even after that, there were so many secrets about my life. So we didn't really start communicating until about six years ago. Now, well, let me ask you this did did your adoptive parents' mind that you were searching for your mother, your biological mother. I think most people can understand that was difficult for them, right. They wanted to protect me. They didn't want me to be hurt by them, especially knowing what they had tried to do to me. So yeah, that part was hard for them, but they knew it was important for me to find them and to know answers, and so they've always been really supportive. So um, about six years ago I started communicating with my birth mother by email, and that's what I learned that she actually didn't know for over thirty years that I had been delivered alive that day. They never told her. She was told it died. It's hideous, it's a monster, don't look at it. And I was rushed off to the nick you after I was initially laid aside. Those were the words that the nursing staff have said. They laid you aside. They must have had one of those really pretty conversations like the governor is talking about right about what was going to happen with me? And ultimately I now know a nurse picked me up, rushed me off to the nick you and shouted to this other nurse that darned doctor Kellberg messed up. Wow, he was my abortionist who made the decision to save your life. Somebody had to step in that nurse. That nurse made the decision to give you that care. Absolutely, have you ever met her? I haven't. I think I know where she is, you know. Let me go back on the other side to this doctor Levatino and you're hearing this story. Look and we'll give a listener warning again because what you're describing, if you have kids in the car, you may not want them to hear it. But because your story is fascinating, you had a total turnaround. Sadly, you lost your six year old little girl and I think you said her name was Heather in a car accident when she was hit by a car, and that changed your mind. And but as you did these later abortions in particular, describe what you do. I don't think most people understand it. Well. I'll picture that child, as I said, as big as your hand or even bigger. And a DNA abortion involves with a suction. The baby's small enough to be pulled into the suction catheter twelve weeks or less. But when they're bigger, you know, fourteen, sixteen, eighteen, twenty twenty four, these are viable kids. At that stage, they're not going to fit through small diameter catheters. So you use a clamp called the sofa clamps, the one I use. There are variations of it. And you have to dismember this child. You have to tear off on a living child, the arms, the legs, tear out the chest, tear out the end abdominal contents, crushed the skull, pull all this out of the vagina, out of the uterus through the vagina, and as I often say, sometimes a little face comes back and stares back at you. Can you think back at times when when you were doing this, before you said I can't do this anymore. Do you remember, like, if you're, as you said, you're tearing out a leg, you're tearing out an arm or a head, and a face is looking at you. Did you look at it and say, what the hell am I doing? Not until the not until my daughter died. I remember, even having been experienced at doing first trimester abortions and even sailing abortions, doing a DNA abortion the first couple of times was traumatic. It's difficult, but I was dedicated. If you talk to me, then I told you I was pro choice. This is a decision between a woman, her doctor, and no one, including the baby's father, has anything to say about it. You know, if you you know, a lot of people identify themselves as pro life or pro choice. But when you're when you're a gynecologist and you say that, it's not some vague political decision. You're deciding whether you're going to do this or not, and you can get used to almost anything. Sean, and I did get used to doing that sort of that. I really look, as I tell people, you know, you and it's it's not just to gross people out. You talk about arms and legs. You do an abortion. You have to keep inventory. You have to make sure you get two arms, two legs, and all the pieces, because if you don't, your patient is going to be in serious trouble. That's her death. Yea, that all of a sudden, I tell people, that was the first time I really, really really looked at that pile of body parts, and all of a sudden, I didn't see her wonderful right to choose, and I didn't see what a great doctor I was helping with her problem. All I could see with somebody's son or daughter. And that changed it for me. You know, I've seen these pictures that you're describing. People don't publish it very often. You can't people want to look online. It's real. What you're describing is graphic and real. I've seen it, and to me, it is just gruesome. And if you have, you know, people wouldn't do this to a little puppy or a kitten or any animal. Yeah, um, what would it be like? What the governor described or what Cuomo the altar boy? That was his answer yesterday. Well, I used to be an altar boy, and I'm like, what does that have to do with anything? And they always come up with great names like the Reproductive Health Act, But what would an what would a full term baby, a woman in labor abortion be like? Based on your experience, Well, I never did a full term abortion, but if you if you look at you know, And this was what happened in Virginia where the sponsor of the bill was asked flat out, would your bill allow an abortion just immediately prior to birth for mental reasons? Yes, she said, and she's absolutely right. That's what the law says. You could literally. Remember, you're gonna understand there's a difference between a human being and a person. Once you are born, you are a person. You have rights under the law. What you know the governor of Virginia maybe a fair pediatrician, I don't know, but he's allows the attorney certainly he has no understanding. Only a person under the law. You have rights if you kill, if you think about it, and then either neglects or kill a child after birth. That's what doctor guys now is spending the rights to his life in prison for that's called murder. You know. When he's what I felt when he said it, I'm like, he doesn't even know what he's describing. There's a disconnect at a level that I can't describe, but I have read that they puncture the skull, suction out the brains of what is now a fully formed, viable child and individual soul, and then do exactly what you're describing, you know, pulling out body parts, except now they're the size of a baby. That is exactly what could be done under the law. Picture the head is crowning. You can see the head through the vagina. But the baby's not born yet, that's not a person yet, and there's nothing preventing you from taking an instrument and puncturing that skull and then, as you say, suction out the brain and then let the baby die, you know, deliver because now the baby's dead. As long as the child is dead before delivery is accomplished, it's legal. You know, as you listen to this. By the way, how would you describe your attitude today, doctor Levettino. Um, Okay, do you still support abortion? Do you still support abortion in the first trimester. I don't support abortion in the first, second, or third trimester, except in very limited circumstances, rape incests, things like that. For a tuable pregnancy. If a woman comes in with a tubal ectopic pregnancy and you do an ultrasound and there's there's a fetus and there's a heartbeat, but it's in her tube, you to treat that, you're just going to kill her. Okay, let me give the last word to Melissa. Melissa, what do you say to people as having survived? You were there was an attempt to abort you, but you survived. You have a story that is very rare. What do you say? We're human beings. You know, we're not some hypothetical case. We're not some political attack on Roe versus Wade. We're living human beings and treat us like that. And in terms of you know, all this discussion about infanticide, we had to fight for our lives in the womb. I know of two hundred and sixty five other survivors, a lot like me. This is what I do. Sean, we sought for our lives in the womb. Don't make us fight for them again after we're born alive. Well, I thank you for sharing your story. Thank God you did survive. And it's obvious the profound impact you're having on a lot of people, Doctor Levatino, thank you for sharing your story. And I find it fascinating. I'm a person that believes that we all can change, and you know, obviously you changed in a very dramatic way in sharing your story. I think is extremely helpful for people. And I want to thank you both for being on with us today.
