All right, thanks Scott Chanting, Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right down our toll free number. It's eight hundred and nine for one sean if you want to be a part of the program. By the way, later, Andrew Giuliani, son of former mayor Rudy Giuliani, announcing he is going to make a run at governor in the Great State of New York. It's this is gonna get interesting. Now, can somebody beat Cuomo in a in a deep, deep, deep blue state like New York. I don't know, it's just the numbers of the numbers. You got nine million New York City residents, nine out of you know, ninety percent of them are Democrats, I mean, and they just vote. I mean, this is hardcore socialist, new Green Deal, radical defund dismantled the police, Democrats and Cuomo. I don't know. That doesn't really massive a matter, Like I think the biggest question California is going to face Gavin Newsom is now he's allocating money to go to two thirds of Californians just getting a free check from your government, including illegal immigrants, just like New York did, Just like they did in the Great State of the Joys and elsewhere around the country in these blue states. So they're gonna take the forty million blue state bailout money with a seventy five billion dollar surplus for the forty billion, They're gonna take money from red states that are fiscally responsible and then give it away in the lead up to a special election recall election out in California. Wow, something of great value, And I wonder if that would impact the race out in California. I'm not saying it would looks awful like an incentive to me, pretty ubel. I'm getting sick of all of these these these blue state mayors and governors. They're the dumbest people on earth, and there's no way that you can hold them accountable. Now, maybe that'll change the hardest question Californians, will faces Will you vote to recall Gavin Newsom, the guy that just mailed you free money? I don't know. I don't see how that can happen now, And the same in New York. I mean, it's it's a one party. These are one party states, socialist utopias, sanctuary states and cities, the worst policies, nobody's held accountable. Maybe there's a backlash building somewhere down the line for somebody. Maybe maybe Andrew Giuliani can pull this off. You know, you got a run for mayor in New York. They don't even mention the Republican Curtis Lee with it's running. They don't even mention them, not even in the list. Did you see that in the paper today? You just put the Democrats in there because they that's so obviously a democratic city. Comrade de Blasio, I love doctor de Blasio offering shake, shock burghers and French fries if you get if you get the poke. Some people love hamburger or something. Don't really want to respect all ways of life. But if this is appealing to you, just think of this when you think of vaccination, doctrine. I'm very a very big feeling about vaccination right this moment. How gross is that, Linda. That's almost as gross as that green drink and orange drink you have every day. Oh it's not even close. That is He's so vile and not for nothing. If you're talking about giving somebody a shot because you want him to live longer and be healthier, and you believe in it, Oh okay, so we just want to fill our orderies with fries and burgers. Okay, yeah, you know it's interesting. But I don't know if you saw this. The Nation interviewed Chucky Schumer. Now what's fascinating is Chucky Schumer is scared to death of AOC. He's scared that AOC, who's really the Speaker of the House, Pelosi speaker name only, is gonna is gonna challenge him for his senency, which I would not be surprised and may actually weigh in and support a HOC just to get back at Chucky. Um. But anyway, he says, Donald Trump controls the Republican primaries, he controls the media. He controls the media. He doesn't control the media. He tells Sean Hannity to say something and he will. No, he doesn't. That's that's not the case. The fact that we agree on law and order and secure borders and energy independence and constitutionalists on the bench and lower taxes and less bureaucracy and free market solutions to healthcare that protect pre existing conditions and uh piece through strength. That doesn't that's that's us agree. But he's scared to death. You want to talk about, you know, any one of the controversies involving Donald Trump, the Democrats, the media mob. They spoke in one voice, Stormy, Stormy, Stormy, Stormy, Stormy, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, slsls hell. Just play a little bit of each j This could be the last nail in the coffin Stormy Daniels. It's causing Stormy Weather. Born star Stormy Daniels claims President Trump broke the law, had her bullied. Does Stormy Daniels have the President's number? It sure seems that way. President Trump might have met his match with Stormy Daniels. How is Stormy weathering? This Stormy speaks. It's not clear what he meant by old countries. Are you shocked or surprised by this? I'm not surprised in one way. I'm proud. I am a proud Bowlder. No. We are not all created equal, at least not if you were born in as the President put it, a whole country, the word house instead of whole as in house countries, not whole countries. This idea propagated by the President and others, that it is a fake dossier that's just not true, a sort of dossier of alleged dirt that the Russians allegedly say they allegedly have on Donald Trump, alleged dirt that they allegedly used to allegedly cultivate him is basically a Russian asset. There's a lot of distraction about this dossier. If you go back and read the thirty five pages, what's going on in the world of Trump right now is a massive attempt to distract and deflect from it. What is reported in that dossier is in line with what we know. That's what Congressman Schiff was saying the president. It's called it a hoax, and we've heard other names for it. But late last year, top officials at the FBI and the CIA and the Director of National Intelligence actually discussed including parts of the Steel dossier in the official intelligence document on Russian medele Oh okay, No, they don't speak with one voice except they lie. They lied about the dossier. They lied about all of it. Russia. Russia Democratic Party polster had bad news for his party. It's a little early to look at this, but Stan Greenberg, veteran Democratic poster, discovered the three quarters of the Republican electorate they support Donald Trump and his policies, and the GOP voters overall are way more enthusiastic than Democrats about voting next year by eleven percentage points, and Greenberg's pole his results to five conventional wisdom that Trump's dominance and agenda is over. Greenberg says the dynamic could sink the Democrats running in key contests for the House and the Senate and governorships in several states. And when you look at this poll, looks it's gonna come down to you, the American people, And I'm it's only gonna get worse from here. Joe Biden is not up to the job, and it's becoming more obvious each and every day. Where do you hear our report with Luke Rosiac, It's even worse for zero experienced hunter even worse. It's worse every day. By the way, nineteen states urging Biden to resume construction of the Keystone pipeline after the colonials shut down. I hope they're able to pull this off. And this is probably going to take a whole series of lawsuits, and that takes a lot of time. US home building fell by more than expected in April. You don't think lumber prices impact this. It does housing prices went down nine point five percent, was seasonally adjusted annual rate of one point five million units last month. Single family home building, the largest share of the housing market, dropped a whopping thirteen point four percent. Not good news. On top of the inflation not good news. Higher gas prices not good news. Giving up energy independence not good news. Higher taxes coming maybe retroactively, not good news. Unbelievable. Biden's gas shortage continues as the media claim supplies are back to normal. No, they're not. It's still half the gas stations in North Carolina, almost half in South Carolina. The pumps are closed, forty percent in Georgia closed, twenty seven percent Virginia. We may not get back to normal to Memorial Day. Oh interesting side note, in case you didn't know it, you know that was tax Day. I guess recently loves to run around the country. Joe and Kamala are talking about people not paying their fairs chair blah blah blah. I guess yesterday was tax Day, postponed a month due to COVID or anyway. New York Post reported that Biden remained a multi millionaire last year. He and his first lady, Jill Biden, jointly earned six hundred and seven thousand, three hundred and thirty six bucks in twenty twenty. According to a copy of their tax return, they paid just twenty five point nine percent in federal taxes. How about we have a box. We'll call it the donate to the country box, and if you think it, I'll your fair share. Why don't you just check the box and volunteer to give more, make a voluntary I thought we were a country full of people that were pro choice. Will make it your choice if you want to pay more. Kamala Harris, her husband reported one million, six hundred ninety five, two hundred and twenty five dollars an income, mostly from his work as a partner, and the couple paid six hundred and twenty one thousand, eight hundred ninety three in income tax thirty six point seven percent. In any way, that both multi millionaires. They want you to pay more. What's interesting is watching the dynamic with Bernie Sanders. Now. I think he feels that the squad is getting more publicity than him. The Hill had a great article about Sanders flexing his muscles on Biden and pushing even harder to get the Biden Bernie Manifesto through Congress, and he's throwing all his political weight around on all these domestic issues and by the way, sticking his nose with ridiculous comments about what's happening in Israel. He's intent to you know, this Medicare expansion, he wants in the infrastructure package and much more. I don't know how they're going to deal with this Biden his cancelation the Keystone pipeline, and now shortages continue. Texas the latest state to opt out of the federal unemployment benefits. Every Republican states saying no, we need to get people back to work. Sanders has trashed removing the ten thousand dollars ceiling on the state and local tax deduction that people have. It's been a priority by the way leaders like Chuck Schumer. What they want to do is give a benefit that the rest of America doesn't get. This would benefit me if you if you don't have a ceiling, you can only deduct ten thousand dollars a state and local taxes, income taxes, if they if they Donald Trump put that in effect. I paid more as a result of the Trump tax plant. But it was the right thing to do. Why do I get a break and the people in Florida, Texas, Tennessee, that Carolinas and the rest of Red America, Mississippi, Alabama, why do they have to pay for They elect politicians that are fiscally responsible, that balance their budgets and don't squander their money and fund their pensions. Why do I get to deduct New York state and city taxes income taxes when they squander everything, run deficits, they don't balance budgets, and they don't even pay down their pensions. Sanders is right on that one point for once in his life. Two are the children who qualify for Biden's expanded child tax credit will begin to receive monthly payments. On July fifteenth, the Treasury Department i RS announced roughly thirty nine million US households, which house eighty eight percent of children in the US, will begin receiving monthly payments from the federal government. Now, if you say that, how much can we afford? We're on track. Now We're going to have a million two million illegal immigrants in this country by the end of the year. That's what the estimates are from the people we've interviewed. Okay, Hannity, you're too cheap, you want, you're greedy, you're selfish, you don't want to give. I know, actually the opposite is true. I want to not rob future generations of their inheritance and burden them with a debt load that they'll never be able to work off in ten lifetimes. It will be we're now impacting kids because we can't afford all of it. And when you say you can't afford it, you can't afford it. You know, are you making enough money to cover the fact that with inflation use cars and trucks are up a whopping twenty one percent? Are you know you're paying more for gasoline? That's another new tax. Furniture embedding up eight percent, fruit is up six point two percent, meats four percent. All of this is money coming out of your pocket. That's money that you would otherwise have available to you. That's what inflation does. And none of it is going to work out for you, and none of it's going to work out for your family because you're not going to get that kind of money adjustment raise unless you're in your own business and you're able to charge more for the services that you do. It's unbelievable. By the way, I'm going to talk about. We have Andrew Giuliani at the top of the hour announcing his run against Andrew Cuomo. Five point one million dollar payday for a book. It's first week I read, sold twelve thousand copies. Yike, that would be considered a flop of failure, and the publisher lost a shift load in honor of Adam Schiff twenty five to the top of the hour. So we got Joe sippy cup, Warm Milky, Night Night, Bedtime story Joe. People laugh on. I said, do you think that's funny, Linda. There's a part of it that's that's funny, but more part of it that's sad because he's he's such a cognitive mess. You know, I won't think it is. I dislike him too much, so it's like nothing is funny about him to me. Yeah, well, what's good about his policies? Nothing really concerns me what he's doing to the country, and it really considerns me because the media, you know, the reason, they won't attack me over sippy cup, Warm Milky Joe or Joey you want to if you really good, Joey will get your bedtime story before your warm milky and your sippy cup. Is because I'll just play the greatest hits and say I'll let you do you tell me, And I think if we played all of it now together, we've got to get the newest montage ready for the next attack against me. Because there's the answer. And if you want to look at these moments and tell me that this guy's not struggling cognitively, and we can compare and contrast him to twenty sixteen versus today, and we can compare him to when he was a senator versus today, he's like a shell of his former self. And what really scares me beyond the fact that the squad and Bernie Sanders are are dictating the agenda of this country the most radical new Green socialist and radical Bolshevik Bernie, because that's what he is. That's why you know that attack. I'm like, Okay, he's praised Castro Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua, Chavez in Venezuela, and Honeymoon's in the former Soviet at Union, not the pre glass nose Perry Streicher. It was before that. This guy is nuts and he's Wield's great influence with Joe Biden. All right, we have the latest on the coronavirus madness. Senators now have largely shed their masks as they return to the Capitol, marking a step towards the pre pandemic normals. You remember about a week and a half ago, put your mask on Adam Kinziger or no it was Swollwell, I think lost his mind. Don't tell me what they have to do. It unbelievable. Pelosi extending House remote voting through July third. Now, why do people we keep hearing the term vaccine hesitancy. Well, the hesitancy would be because of the mixed messaging at Democrats. They want to blame conservatives. I think I have given responsible advice to people. I'm not your doctor. I don't know your unique medical condition. I don't know about pre existing conditions. I don't know what what medicines you might be on. I don't know anything about your immune system. I don't know anything about your health whatsoever. You know to offer shake shack or a chance of winning a million dollars, I guess the wines doing that in Ohio and play doctor on radio and TV. I'm just going to urge you to be smart and safe and to protect Grandma, Grandpa, mom and dad and people that are far more vulnerable to complications than yourself. Turns out that that weight obesity plays a very big part in as a risk factor. You know, listen, we all have to trying our best to stay in shape as you get older. It's harder, right painting the neck. And I'm not going the route of you know these disgusting you know, green puke, bile, you know, exorcist projectile, vomiting, peace soup, green peace soup, drinks of hers or the orange puke that she drinks. I don't know what that is either. And Tom Blasio, if you get vaccinated, you get more freedom, good grief. You want to follow the science, You sometimes need to wear masks after being a mutant. Everybody in the meeting wants to tell everybody what to do. I'm saying, do your research. Come on, most Americans are pretty smarty. Is there any American now that doesn't understand the issue of masks social distancing? Is there anybody in America that doesn't know that there are three vaccines? There are people that don't know about therapeutics that I can tell you. There are Americans that don't know about regeneron. I've remect in eh CQ, the studies that warrant we sin from the medical journals. I mean, at the height of this pandemic that in and of itself is just beyond the pale. With the media, what you know, medicine and politics criss cross politics always wins. I always quote doctor oz On that it's just amazing. I want I want everybody to be smart and healthy. So do your research. Read varying points of view. Read. You can get online summaries. If you don't want to read the whole thing of the clinical trials for Fier Maderna and Jay and Jay Johnson and Johnson. You can read the differences between the Maderna Fiser vaccine versus the J and J vaccine. And then you can consult with your doctor or doctors, not your favorite television host, not your favorite politician, and that somebody that knows your private personal medical condition and make an educated decision after talking to the professionals that you know. Finally, New York and Illinois will ease the fat face mask rules for the fully vaccinated. Well, how are we gonna know we're gonna get back to this idea of passports again, because that's a bad idea because if you decide, I mean, if the decision is yours, that you want to get vaccinated. I thought the idea was you have now protected yourself from other people. Now Joe Biden is out there, It's actually kind of cracked me up. I'm not really sure why I cracked man, but it did crack me up. And Joe Biden is now saying that don't be kind and respectful to people who still want to wear masks. Why would anybody care if somebody else is wearing a mask, Linda, do you care if somebody wears a mask? Do you care if somebody wears a hat? Do you care if somebody wears sunglasses? I don't care what people wear. I prefer you wear something. That's all. I would be respectful. I really care if people want to wear a mask. People want to go to a restaurant where a man wearing knock yourself out, He's not going to miss The mask is because the anonymity that I was able to obtain a little bit realizing it's kind of lost in my life. You laugh every time, So why is that funny to you? I'd be in the store with sunglasses, a baseball hat and a mask on, and I'd still get recognized. How is that possible? I know, I mean the problem is shown is that you always wear the same sunglasses and the same hat. So yeah, maybe you could mix it up a little bit. You know, anybody who knows you knows you wear the same thing, the same jeans, the same shoes, the same hat, the fireman's shirt. You know, Ironman, NYPD, FBI wear a lot of law enforcement gear. I don't have a problem, but people was actually she really told in a very respectful way that I'm a horrible dresser. Believe you are a horrible dresser. I mean, it's great on TV. Every night I put on this. Now I'm wearing jeans or sweats, but I mean, I'm I'm usually in jeans. Yeah, but everybody looks nice in a button down. Okay, I put a shirt on Fox makes me wear the stupid tie. I don't want to wear my stupid tie on TV. I've asked not to have it. Why. I don't know. People know you recognize you on the tie, so they'll recognize me without it anyway. I don't know. It's listen. That tie goes on at eight fifty seven. It's off at nine oh one thirty. I promise you every night that's the only time you're gonna catch me in a tie. Be kind and respectful for people who want to wear masks. Okay, I'm never would. I don't really Why does anybody think anyone else cares. It's sort of like everyone's following the details of Bill Gates, of Melinda Gates. I don't care about Bill Gates. You want to give you money away, Bill, give you money away. I do care about the mask, though, when it comes to our kids, shun, I do. Well, no, that's a whole different story because and I think you raise a good point, and we've had our doctors on repeatedly, and we've had many doctors saying it's not good for these kids, and that there are other factors that nobody's considering, and that the risk for the kids is not what it is for adults. The perfect example of that is Florida schools have been open since August. And it's a great point. You see that kid that got abused by that teacher that we showed last night, it's disgusting, it was horrible, that teacher. That teacher's lucky. You're not that tiger mom. You, Linda is not in the That wasn't your kid. Your job as a teacher, beyond everything else, is you need to take care of my child with the almost respect in your care. That's the same. Well, Mike, all right, play the tape of the teacher. You got that Jasey time. I don't care if you're vascinated your little dick, Okay. I don't want to get sick and die. Okay, there's other people you can heat just because you're vascinated. You know what, You're not a special person around here. Do you should hear about how everybody talks about you. I don't care how you su okay, And you need to have respect for other people in your body. You're not a big man on campus walking around here. Stick up your butt. I'm just trying to not increase my shoes. That's why I'm walking off. It's not literally yet, dummy, What the hell is that? Yeah? She should be fired five minutes. Should be fired. She is horrendous and vile. And the problem is, and this is something that we talked about on the show with Fred and Doctor Tyson, is something we walked about. Do we talk some of them? Because I'm getting angry. All that's why when you get mad, outcomes the Philly accent. Go ahead. It's a Philly mixed with New York. It's a bit of a disaster. But anyways, my point is the NIH released a study, and the study says very clearly that the masks have more psychological and physiological harm to our children and two adults for that matter. But I'll discuss it on another day. But it does nothing to stop any variant of any virus. And if worst quote unquote believing the science, then Fauci's NIH should talk about that study that came out in January. It's may. The teacher is psychotic. I would lose my I would lose my Adam Schiff. I'd lose my Schiff. I really would. If that was my kid, I'd go nuts something. So Sippy Cup Joe's COVID warning unvaccinated people will end up paying the price. Oh doctor, doctor sippy Cup is now giving us advice on medicine. It was it was a very funny. I don't know who wrote the piece. It was on town Hall. I apologize for not giving attribution, which we usually do. Actually, I think it was Derek Hunter who did it. And oh, just shut up already, doctor Fauci, just shut up. My favorite thing though that happened this week was in Texas, and we love Governor Rabbit on this program's a good guy. What do you think all this talk of McConaughey, the actor running against either I guess Abbot or the lieutenant governor because you're a Hollywood actor where I happened to be fond of. I think he's really good. You ever watcha Dallas Buyer's Club. Did such a good job in that movie. And interestingly, the right to choose came from Donald Trump. But back to Governor Abbott. Remember Biden said that when he lifted the restrictions in Texas that he was a Neanderthal. Yeah, well it looks like sippy cup Joe was Greg Abbott the governor in apology because they reported zero deaths from COVID on Sunday, only two months after the Governor of Texas, Greg abbottrew heat from Joe for rolling back business restrictions and lifting the state's mask mandate. They never had one in South Dakota. Now it's a different terrain and It's not like New York. We have a densely populated area, high concentration of people, very small geographic area. It's a little bit different. The latest that of Israel. By the way, voters overwhelmingly Rasmussen say that Trump's Israel policy was much better. Congresswoman Omarsh squad member demanding Biden cancel arm sales to Israel. Wow, this is pretty this is pretty frightening. There was a piece out about how Schumer is on a collision course with his own party on Israel, and that is apparently the fighting in the Middle East. You know why hasn't Schumer, Biden, and Pelosi taken on the squad for their virgulent anti Semitism. Nearly thirty Senate Democrats are demanding that Israel back off before they do too much damage to the terrorist group Hamas, whose charter calls for the destruction of Israel. Wow, modern day of peasers. You don't think chose money to the Palestinians freeing up two and thirty five million forty days ago had something to do with this and is reopening of discussions and negotiations with Iranian mullahs that chant death to America, death to Israel, the same Mullahs that just partnered with China and Russia who provided arms to Iran to give to Yemen so they can fight a proxy war and the rest of the Middle East. We cannot let Israel, our closest ally down. If nothing else, just get the hell out of the way and let BB do his job and protect his country. Fifteen hundred rockets rained down on any American city, and you bet you're asked that we're gonna fight back. We better What is this Secretary of State blinken? He see no evidence presented by Israel of Hamas's presence in the building. It was well known, and the AP was given a ten minute warning. Senate Republicans trying to press Democrats with a resolution condemning the terrorist group Hamas. They don't want to sign it. Tom Cotton took on AP. They have uncomfortable questions to answer for sharing the gods of building with Hamas. It's a good question, but they were given warning. NET and Yahoo let it out, you know, Michael Goodwin, great column today. Biden's gotta let sippy cups, gotta let BB fight his own way. We should be helping them on the side of the people that are not the terrorists. So this is pathetic. All right, hour to Sean Hannity's show, eight hundred and nine, pot one, Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. So we have these deep, deep, deep blue states. We know the recall is gonna take place out in California. The toughest, the toughest hurdle in my view is question one, and that is do you do you support the recall of Gavin Newsom? Of course, you know, states like New York, California and New Joysy Illinois. Then losing population that's why they've lost congressional seats, net negative population growth in California first time ever, and people flocking out of New York states like Florida, Texas. They're just they're killing it right now. And then was to make that happen, Gavin Newsom has to get below fifty percent of the vote on the question should he be recalled? In other words, of fifty plus fifty percent plus one vote to recall him, he's out. Then people go to question too, who would you like to replace Gavin Newsom? And that would be the list of people, for example, Caitlin Jenner and the many others that will get involved in that race. But I think the tougher part is getting a question getting through Question one, especially in light of the fact that we now know Gavin Newsom is going to be sending checks. He got what in the blue state belot forty some odd billion dollars. There's been money coming from taxpayers and states that elect responsible governors and state legislatures that balance their budgets, live within their means, paid down their pensions, fund their pensions. These are states that keep taxes low, have better infrastructure, better services, better schools, with far less money, and much lower taxes, if any at all, state income tax. And then you got a state like New York. There's a lot of news on Andrew Cuomo. Mark Simone, who's on our New York affiliate AM seven ten WR, he tweeted out, the ghoulish governor Cuomo has set the record for tasteless pandemic profiteering, pocketing five point two million for a book that only sold fifty thousand copies. By the way, in the publishing world, that is an unmitigated disaster. Although I got to give him credit, he so more than Humpty Dumpty anyway, while killing one hundred well killing fifteen thousand senior citizens in his state's nursing homes. Hashtag Cuomo lied, people died. Hashtag Cuomo Gotta go Big piece in the New York Post today at Cuomo reaps as New York weeps, talking all about his book. Now, remember the timeline that we've got here. The timeline is is Andrew Cuomo, in March of twenty twenty puts in place the executive order that mandates that nursing homes accept COVID nineteen positive patients. Now we know that nursing homes. A lot of nursing home owners was saying, we're not prepared for this. Now, the real irony in all of this is that Donald Trump built the largest hospital in America. He paid for it, he built it, he manned it, He provided all the ppe that was needed and the manpower. Javits Center, the hospital, the Navy Hospital Ship Mercy, converted these facilities for COVID capability, which they were not originally intended for. And those beds remained eighty percent empty. It wasn't like it had nowhere else to go. Now they began to get the numbers back that this was a disaster by June, and rather than change course, now other states followed him, like New Jersey and Pennsylvania and Michigan and California with the nursing homes RN de Santis. He mobilized every state agency in Florida to protect the elderly population of Florida and as a result, Florida did infinitely better than New York. So not only and then we have the real whistleblower saying, yeah, the reason we didn't give you the accurate numbers is we didn't want the Justice Department to find out. He writes this book, American Crisis Leadership Lessons from the COVID nineteen pandemic. That was Donald Trump that built the hospitals, manned the hospitals, provided the ppe ended up, you know, forging an alliance with even auto manufacturers to get all of the ventilators that we needed. We never ran out of them. All the masks, all the gloves, all the shields, all the gowns, all the medicines, got it all. And he got it done. And even Cuomo and Newsome and others praised him at the time. My colleague on Fox News, Janice Dean, Yeah, she lost two in laws. As a result of this, we've had herund a couple of times, writes a column today, we now officially know how much Governor Cuomo received for his disgusting and possibly criminal book, five point one million dollars. Was it worth a governor? When I first learned he was writing it, I thought it was a joke, She writes. It would have been a perfect satire headline for the Babylon b Clomo writes book, congratulating himself while simultaneously helping to kill all thousands of seniors in nursing homes. A joke was on us. The nightmare is actually true. My husband lost both his mother and father in separate elder care facilities last spring. So sad. Now, if he would have recognized when the numbers started coming in, rather than cover it up and reversed course and said this isn't working. We have a problem with the ventilation systems that nobody anticipated. We got to fix this. I think people would have been very It's not a matter of being forgiving. But everybody got everything wrong, most everybody, all the models, all the predictions wrong. But anyway, now the question is because this is beyond shameful, as the new York Post editorial said, but the media loved it. They lapped up his PowerPoint presentations daily. Some of the mainstream media mob couldn't run it enough. They stopped running Donald Trump's remarks, but they had to run Andrew Cuomo. They built him up. Now, the question is that New York has been decimated spending atkins at one party, state, filibuster proof, Assembly, and Senate. I don't know if Andrew's going to run for a fourth term. My guess is his ego won't allow him not to. Andrew Juliani, the son of the former mayor, is now making his bid for this position. He joins us. Now, Andrew, good to have you on the program. We've known each other a long time. The last thing I would ever want for my kids is them to follow me into this business of mine. I hope and pray they never do. I would never encourage it. How'd your dad react to this? Sean? You know, I gotta tell you well first and foremost, to just comment on one of the things you said there in the introduction. Let's be honest about that those fifteen thousand New Yorkers died because of Andrew Cuomo's ego. He did not want to give President Donald Trump the political win of sending up the USS Comfort. So those lives would have been saved if he had only recognized that he had had the space in the Javit Center and he had the space in the USS Comfort. As for that, Sean, and I think you know this is as well as anybody. It's a time in our country and in our state's history for kins, for New Yorkers to step up. We can either leave or we can stay and fight and take back our great state. And we need to do this all across the country. And Sean, I know from your platform you do that every day and every night. And so look, I look at my life as an opportunity over the next fifty years to make sure that we continue to build off the cornerstone that you, that Rudy Giuliani, that Donald Trump, that Ronald Reagan built. If I didn't get into Sean, I would not be able to sleep at night. Let me ask you, because you know the numbers. You know the registration advantage of Democrats in New York City. Are we talking about eight nine million people nine to one Democrats? That makes it much harder. And these are hardcore Democrats, defund the police, dismantle the police, you know, Green New Deal radicals. Yeah, the way the numbers work out, Sean, you know, any Republican who's going to win New York statewide is going to have to get close to forty percent of the city. Just from a population standpoint, in New York State, as nineteen point five million people, eight point five of them live in the city, eleven million live in Westchester South, including Nassau and Suffolk. So a Republican has to be able to compete there. Who better to do that than somebody who has been taught and learned from by Rudy Giuliani. There's been no other Republican in the last seventy five years that has been able to connect with New York Democrats. But more than anything, Sean, we're gonna go out there. We're going to present I'm going to present my policies which are good for New Yorkers. Whether you're Letter Blue, Sean, whether they listen to your show, whether they don't listen to your show. The truth is, we need to make sure that we're creating jobs and reducing taxes and making New York a business friendly state. We need to make sure that parents have a choice in their kids education, and that school choice and charter schools expand. And most importantly, Sean and I'm sure you heard this from another Giuliani, at some point, we need to make sure the war on police stops, and it stops. January first, twenty twenty three, from the Governor's mansion in Albany, New York. Where do you stand on fracking? So? Look, I mean we can see property values is just a difference on the southern tier of New York between Pennsylvania and New York. And you'll see the Pennsylvania real estate is three or four times as expensive. We need to figure out ways in New York to make sure we are creating revenue that we are bringing jobs in. So I absolutely am four figuring out ways to make sure that we are doing clean fracking in New York. The latest push in New York to get more revenue beyond the higher taxes he's now proposed in the largest that New York would become number one in terms of state income tax. But other ways they appear to be wanting to get money is gambling, sports, gambling, and legalizing weed, which is never a good idea. Of my view, So I believe it's a gateway drug. Yeah, well, look the numbers, and I think this is where we need to be very careful with marijuana. But we also do need to realize that there is revenue, right. I mean, we can look at if you're under the age of eighteen years old. I think the numbers are if you're under the age of sixteen and you and you use marijuana, you're three times more likely in your life to be a hard drug user. If you're under the age of eighteen and use marijuana, you're two times more likely after that that it only gets up in multiples of one x. So you know, I think we really need to follow the numbers, and I believe the Republican Party has become the Party of science over the last over the last what's that you'd be open to it? I would be open to it over the age of eighteen or twenty one years old, but I would follow the numbers, Sean. I would follow the facts on this stuff. I wouldn't just ultimately make an emotional decision one way or the other, but certainly on mobile sports gambling, Sean, what I have seen is I've seen more people that have the means leave the state, go to they go to New Jersey and do it their best. They absolutely do. I know more people they go to Jersey to do that. So that's lost revenue for New York. So you know, we need to make sure that our next leader, our next government, you'll get this in a governor Giuliani takes a look at it, looks at looks at issues not from an ideological perspective, but from a problem solving perspective. You're gonna be asked the issue of social issues. Now, their dad and I I mean I've known your dad, We've been friends for many many years, used to come on my late night radio show, and you know, on social issues, your dad was pretty liberal. You're gonna be asked, probably almost immediately, if not already asked. I don't know about issues involving them, say, gay marriage, transgender sports, issues like a boor shit, and what are your answers? Yeah, well, look, truthfully, many of these issues have been decided in the courts already, and so anything that's been decided in the courts, I think as a candidate you'd be doing yourself a disservice from actually going into those directly. What I can tell you is I do think every New Yorker, whether you are straight, whether you're gay, whether you're white, whether you're black, whether you whether you're Jewish, whether you're Christian, gentile, every single New Yorker is being affected right now by the lack of economic opportunities in New York, by our education system which is failing our kids, and by the unbelievable spike in crime in New York shown you're talking about. In twenty twenty, there were more shootings in New York City than there were in twenty eighteen and nineteen combined. And I can tell you that problem is not isolated to New York City. That problem can Let me tell you what I'm hearing. I'm hearing law and order, safety insecurity. I am hearing lower taxes, less regulation. I am hearing choice in school, you have two teachers unions that will hate you, but okay. And I'm hearing that you're going to follow the courts on social issues and that's not why you're running. Is that a fair statement. I think that's right. I think for me, the truth is we are focused on issues that are going to affect New Yorkers. Every single New Yorker. And what affects every New Yorker right what's the reason why so many New Yorkers are moving down to Florida and moving out of state right now? It's because New York is no longer a business friendly state. Florida is, as you said in your introduction, Texas is, and that's why businesses in jobs are leaving me. How low do you think you can get the tax rates in New York, say the state income tax? Well, that is going to be a battle. That is going to be a battle with the legislatures, which I look forward to taking on. What I will promise New York is when I go up to Albany and I become elected governor, I will do everything I can form my executive power to reduce regulation, which is truly where the power of the governor stands from a regulatory stand. We saw this with President Trump over the last four years. On tax cuts. You need to work with the legislature on that. I will do everything in my power to make sure that we are reducing taxes in New York. And here's what I will do. I will be accountable to New Yorkers. I will tell them, I will bring them in on the process and if their legislatures are failing them, and we are presenting that every single day. New Yorkers were here from their governor, and they will know why their taxes have been customed or have chosen by a legislature not to be cut. But we will put that political pressure on them to get it done and make New York the most business friendly state again in the Union, the way Dwight Clinton believes he built it. Your last question, I don't have a second. Do you believe it? Andrew runs again. Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me either. I've known you for a long time. UM, I hope New York will listen to you and hear you out. And I actually think the moment is now. If New York ever has a chance to be and an open mind, I think is the timing is perfect. We're going to follow this closely. Andrew Giuliani, congratulations, thanks for being with us. We'll see you tonight on Hannah. I appreciate it. Quick break right back to the top of the hour eight hundred and nine, Part one, Sean, you want to be a part of the program. So I got a lot of feedback my comments on TV last night about Harry. I'm not sure he's a print anymore. And he called our First Amendment bonkers. Listen, I don't want to start sort of going down the first amoment because that's a huge subject in one of which I don't understand, becas i've any been in for a short period of time. But you can find a loophole in anything, and you can capitalize or exploit what's not said rather than uphold what is said. I got so much I want to say about the First Amenments. I still don't understand it, but it is bonkers. So what is our human right as an individual, as a family. You're saying that if the moment we stepped for out of our house, that it's open season and free game. What because of public interests? There's no public interest in you taking your kids for a walk down the beach, right, nothing? Yes, And of course that news, so it's not news, yea, This is my issue with it. It's like news should stay as news. What has happened in today's world is that news has been hijacked and used to commercially benefit a small group of people. So it's this sort of rabid feeding frenzy. Two days ago, Orlando Bloom send me a message because he's down the road and we sort of keep in contact because of the paparazzi. He sent me a photograph, which is security got of this long haired guy with a beanie on with his hipods in with his massive camera, lying in the back of his four way four truck, backed out windows a woman driving who she likes, the sort of the peace sign where she's sitting there as a distraction, and he's laid down in the back of this truck taking photographs of them out with the kid. Yeah, and whoever else is in that area? How is that normal? How is that acceptable? How normal is it to grow up in palaces with crowns and worship and attention? Now Harry is loved by the Wolke canceled culture, Harleywood crowd. I couldn't believe. Lend it correct me if I'm wrong, didn't Megan Marco then try to get the Government of Great Britain to investigate Peers Morgan because she didn't like Peers's honest comments about her. I mean, that's pretty chilling to me. This is the worst part, you know, I don't understand it. The First Amendment it's bunkers bunkers. Well, well, with all due respect to the former prince, or if you're still a prince, I don't know what you are. This is one of America's most sacred rights. It's called freedom of speech. It's protected by our Constitution, our first Amendment. Now you've been welcome with open arms in America. Many people love you. Many people you know can't wait to be around you. Many people a mesm. Harry is here and Meghan is here. None of this impresses me, none of it. And you know, we don't really need you coming from England to lecture us on our first Amendment, our Constitution. And if you're having a hard time understanding the importance of freedom of expression and the importance of constitutional principles that allow for a free exchange of ideas, which have made America the greatest country on earth, then maybe this isn't a home for you. I know you live in Monaco. I think the average home price is over fourteen million dollars. I know your scheduled. I guess you know you're doing all these business deals and America is going to be very good to you and your bride, you know, But you know the irony and all of this for me is that that First Amendment that you don't understand, that you think is bonkers, that would be the exact same First Amendment that allowed you and your wife, Megan to go on Oprah Winfrey's show and just trash your own family that was protected by the First Amendment. We really don't need your lectures. You're free to go home if you're unhappy here. Maybe you can go home and make amends at the beautiful palace palaces wherever you wherever you want to be, your country homes, or wherever out in the burbs. You're free to go home, maybe make amends with the people that you hurt, you know, because you're enjoying the freedom's protected under the First Amendment while you live here in America. Now. The only reason you can say that is because you're in America. The only reason you can trash your family layout insinuations but not name names, meaning put the entire family under suspicion of being a racist. One of the worst things you can say about somebody, because anybody that's a racist is a horrible person. But you did that to a world audience that watched, and I'm not really sure if your family even wants you to go back home after you trash them while exercising your First Amendment rights, pretty pretty arrogant, pretty disconnected from reality. You know. Censorship, suppression of thought. Is that a good thing, because to me, that's bunkers. We're all gonna be little robots that can only say whatever the government tells us to say. No, you are going to be punished. Your punishment will be for speaking your mind. You want the government to be able to control what people are allowed to think, say, believe. You don't have to like it, but that's our that's our system of government. I would think you'd have more respect, you know, I had. I had a couple interesting discussions I think publicly and privately with Piers Morgan, and I think one of the biggest mistakes. Piers Morgan is a talented television host. I mean that he replaced Larry King. Of course we won that hands down in the ratings war, and he maybe he owns it and he's, yeah, well you gave me a slushing or whatever. He says. It's pretty funny. He's got a great sense of humor. I like I actually like him. I mean, I didn't understand why I walked off the set that day. I wish he didn't, but anyway, and I think love passionate debate, but I thought Pears was making a fatal mistake. He thinks he can lecture the American people on the issue of the Second Amendment, and every time he'd lectured Americans on the Second Amendment, more Americans would tune out of watching his show. So every time he did it, I was like, all right, there we go. Who's going to replace him? And eventually that happened. I want to live under freedom. I know it's become fashionable for us to feign outrage at words that are said by some people now when you're a public figure, of which I happened to be. I signed up for this, I did. I understand. I give it out four hours a day, and I take at least forty hours a day from all around all different sorts of people that comment that don't like me. If I don't like that life, I can leave it any time I want, because I live in a free country. You know, every job, as it's upside and downside, getting trashed often is not. I'm you know what I think the thing is is I I'm I'm just not afraid to be in a fight with anybody. Nobody. No words hurt me that bad. They just don't. People lie about me all the time. People of at Linda, how many times we've been light about, how many times we've been slandered. I wish we were while we're breathing. Somebody's lying about us, Yeah, somebody. But you know what, I chose to be a public figure. Now you were born into it's a little different situation. If you choose to exit the public life, you don't get the benefits of the name recognition, and you drop in your grenades, verbal grenades on anybody and everybody you want, and lecturing us and attacking your own family. In a way, I kind of feel sorry for you because it seems to me that you're kind of torn. Doesn't it seem like he's torn between? Maybe not, Maybe he just doesn't care about his family. I don't know. I think what's happened is he's gotten a taste of celebrity life where he's famous for being famous. You know, he basically is like, you know, the British Kardashian. You know, what is the man done? And you don't like I'll tell you what I like Harry. I like Harry when he was serving in the military. I thought that was cool, right, But the problem is for him, he's always second to his brother, right, William's first, William's next in line in a spell, That's exactly. And like, at the end of the day, it's like, you know, what does royalty really do? I don't really know. I don't understand it all that much, but you know, I think to attack our first Amendment. You know, It's like, listen, people weren't allowed to talk to you in any way because you were a member of royalty, so nobody ever spoke out a turn to you. You're getting your first taste of people with opinions. You're finding out your out that whole way right now. When we remember when we were in Great Britain, I'm not sure if you went out for the TV shoot that we had and I was like, they remember they had an anti Trump rally and I said, oh, let's go down there, and everyone's looking at me like I'm nuts. I'm like, nah, nobody's gonna know me here. It would be great, it would be awesome. We were there maybe thirty seconds and we were spotted and a nice little crowd started to develop and surround us, and then the police. Those people were really intend Sean. I mean, they had so much venom and hatred in them. It was insane. It was insane. I wanted to stay, and the and the bubbies or the police, you know, they wouldn't let me stay. Oh like, I can handle this, fine, sir, sir. Then now they're nervous, by the way cops and Great Britain aren't armed. That's that's crazy, all right, As we continue back to our busy phones, let's go to Mark and Wisconsin. What's up? Mark? Glad you called, sir. The liberal left may hate you, but the rest of us love, so don't worry. Well, I appreciate it, and I do this show for people that believe in liberty, freedom, our constitution, capitalism, common sense, and a strong America. Well excellent. Well, I believe in a strong America. And I've worked in the truck industry all my life, and what's going on right now with the fuel shortages. It's not just you know, you see the fuel price, that's the visual, but there's so much more cost of it that's put into it by regulations from our government and from stateside California where they require they put additional costs upon the business based on their diesel emissions regulations. And instead of letting the free market dictated, the states are dictating and putting additional costs upon the rest of us. Besides the fuel cost. You seem to operate that vehicle, you know it takes oil. Let me ask, so you drive eighteam wheelers, right. I've been involved in the industry since I was a child. I've lived in trucks. I've been an owner operator, I've been a driver, I've ran fleets. I'm kind of an industry is a story, and I'm totally geek when it comes to trucks, and I think they're the coolest things ever. The trucking industry dazzles me well because I know everything I buy and whatever store I go to got there by a truck. I do a lot of stuff with show trucks, so I have to get you to a truck show sometimes, Sean, how's that sound? Listen? I mean, what's your favorite of all the trucks out there? You know, freight liner. I don't know all the names, but I'm a Kenworth guy, So give me a big three. Oh, I've known a lot of mac history. I've I've I've read Max and I'm a Kenworth guy, so I've been uh fixed a big duck center hoodbe nine hundred all, uh, you know about three. I have friends of mine in the trucking industry. They're doing very well. Here's what I've been saying though, and you correct me. Now that the price of fuel has gone up, and it's every single thing we buy is going to cost more. Truck drivers they're not going to accept less per mile than what they they're getting currently. Right, Oh, no, operators, they're not going to take less profit. They're just going to charge more per mile. Am I wrong? Well, there's a number of factors that go into that. Um, you know, the rates are set. If somebody doesn't want to take that load, the broker or the shipper may actually have to up that rate because you know, I'm not gonna put it on my truck for that. Plus then on top of that, we're going to charge a fuel search charge to move that freight based on the current fuel prices are on the country. That's either is a national average or regional average as well. So there's additional costs that will go on top of that, you know, based on if you're running an area like in the northeast or wherever that maybe require high tolls. You know the costs of operating your vehicle, plus you know the other centers like but also fuel search charge that goes on top of um. You know the cost of that fuel to help the fluctuation just for that fluctuation of fuel costs to the vehicle. You know, listen, I just I just know something that I think everybody maybe we have. We don't appreciate some professions as much as others, right, I mean, frankly, I can tell you for my years is working in restaurants and in contracting, I didn't get undue praise. I you know, I'd reluctantly get the check that and the money that we had agreed to before the job, even if I did a great job. But and then I've always said fame is not healthy. And I know we put our athletes on a pedestal, certain people on a pedestal. I don't think anyone belongs on a pedestal. Because the lifeline to this country is the trucking industry, the farming industry, the packing industry, the medical supply industry, and you know, they're unsung heroes. I always say that what makes America great or its people, the people whose names we don't know, that work their asses off, you know, to twelve fourteen, sixteen hours a day, that raised their kids with good values. They put food on the table, a roof over their kid's head. You know that that are generous in ways you can't even imagine. Obey the laws, follow all the rules, pay their taxes, and they just make the country great and make our lives easier with the goods and services they provide and what I love. For years and years and years run up and down our highways. I got to see parts of the country that a lot of people are never going to see. And I just, you know, enjoyed what I did. I want to people leave me alone and do my job, make a nice living. And and you know, I've been fortunate to do what I've loved since I was a child. You know, play with big trucks and and on many different levels. And well, I think that's really cool. That's a great, great story. And you know, tell everybody you meet in the trucking industry they have a fan in Sean Hannity, Okay, well, I know there's a lot of us who listen to you. I got a lot of friends who listen to you, and so you're you're you listen to out there. I know at guys don't use like CB radios anymore like break or breako onnoin right, that's all over. No, I still use them. Left to come with a handle for you, Sean, for Sean, for you, Sean, so you know handle. I love it. I'm in. I gotta get a CBE radio. Talk to my trucker buddies. All right, Mark god Bush, you my friend, Thank you, wish you the best always. Eight hundred nine four one sewn as our number if you want to be a part of the program. Quick break right back. Coming up next our final news round up and information Overload hour All right, News round Up, Information Overload, our final half hour of the program today your calls Hannity tonight, nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel. Now, I know that we had two impeachments went over Ukraine and a hearsay non whistleblower anonymous here say non whistleblower, whistleblower. We went through that sham or shift show as we call it on this program affectionately, and that was very simply that Donald Trump he said something on the phone with Presidents Alinsky. There was nothing wrong with the phone call. We go through this impeachment process and we had plenty of hearsay witnesses, plenty of opinion witnesses. There was only one act witness in that impeachment trial. The one fact witness said, well, what did the President say that he wanted from Ukraine? He said, I don't want anything. I don't want to quit proquil I want them to do what's right with the money we give them. Anything wrong with that? Now, to get there, you had to ignore that is zero experience. Hunter his deal with Barisma, and then a more less cognitively struggling Joe Biden bragging before the Council of Farm Relations how he sat down with the Ukrainians and said, you're not getting the one billion dollars. He's in charge of Ukraine policy for the Obama Biden administration. You're not getting the billion. Looks at his watch. You got six hours and you're either going to fire this prosecutor. Why would a vice president of the United States want a prosecutor in Ukraine fired or threatened promised aid of a billion dollars. Who's this prosecutor. Oh, he's the one that was investigating his zero experience on Hunter. Let's go back and let's listen to Joe bragging about leveraging your hard earned tax dollars and what is a real quid and pro and quot? Listen. Ah said, I'm not going to We're not going to give you the billion dollars. I said, you have no authority. You're not the president, the president said, I said, calling him, I said, I'm telling you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting a billion. I'm gonna be leaving here. I think it was what six hours? I look, I said, leaving six hours. If the prosecutors not fired, you're not getting the money. All son of him got fired? Oh, son of a bee got fired. He fired. He leveraged a billion tax dollars quid pro quote Joe to get the prosecutor in Ukraine fired. Now, Hunter, he's fifty years old. He's not a kid. Not like we're going after the President's children, young children. No, when not at all. As a matter of fact, I think Hunter zero experience has gotten, you know, frankly, the kid glove treatment by pretty much everybody except for us, that we just and I'm not even focused on the personal life issues, which are many and might be getting far worse as time goes on. Time will tell. Based on some briefings I've had with people that have actually seen the laptop that my own lawyers refuse to allow me to get a copy of amazing what could possibly be on there that my lawyers are like, no, you are not allowed. We're forbidding you from taking custody of it. And I listen to my lawyers. I follow the law. I don't want to get in trouble anyway. So Hunter Biden goes on Good Morning America and how is it that he's being paid millions? Did he have any experience in oil or gas or energy or Ukraine. Well here's him when he said, I hope you know what you're doing. What did he think you were doing? Well? He wrote the press reports that I joined the board of Brisma, which was a Ukrainian natural gas company. And there's been a lot of misinformation about me, not about my dad. Nobody buys that, but it buys this idea that I was unqualified to be on the board. What were your qualifications to be on the board of ARESMA Well, I was vice chairman of the board of Amtrak for five years. I was the chairman of the board of the UN World Food Program. I was a lawyer for boy Schiller Flexner, one of the most prestigious law firms in the world. You didn't have any extensive knowledge about natural gas or Ukraine itself, though, No, But I think that I had as much knowledge as anybody else that was on the board, if not more. Oh, and then it goes further and it asked, well, why do you think you got hired? I no know. Is it because your last names Biden? Probably probably in the list that you gave me of the reasons why you're on that board, you did not list the fact that you were the son of the course. Yeah, no, what role do you think that played. I think that it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards that I just mentioned without saying I'm the son of the vice president of the United States. You were paid fifty thousand dollars a month for your position. Look, I'm a private citizen. One thing that I don't have to do is sit here and open my kimono as it relates to how much money I make or maker dealer didn't. But it's all been reported. If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of Barisma. I don't know. I don't know, probably not. I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life that if my last name wasn't Biden. Zero experience makes millions. Then we found out about the Bank of China deal started as a billion dollar deal just what ten days after he went on Air Force two with Joe to China and he makes a deal with the Bank of China. Private equity deal becomes a billion five deal. Then the Grassley Chuck Grassley Ron Johnson Senator Ron Johnson report comes out. Then we find out other countries are transferring funds over to his company, including Kazakhstan and an oligarch from there three point five million with a Russian oligarch known as the First Lady of Moscow and now a longtime friend of this program, Luca Rosiak is doing a four part series on Hunter and the nefarious activities of the Biden syndicate family and Hunter's world Biden's son had tentacles and dark corners of the world far beyond China and Ukraine. And Luke Rosiak joins us now of his investigative report, it's kind of amazing because if this was vice President Trump and Don Junior and zero experienced Don and Vice President Trump leveraging a billion taxpayer dollars. I do think, Luke, maybe I'm wrong, but I do believe that probably there would be a lot of outrage from the Democrats and the media. Yeah, I'd say, And really, what we heard about Rythma is kind of just the tip of the iceberg. He was trying to do deals wherever he could, and he goes on these programs and he says, well, I don't know if to hire me if it was my last name. You know, I've seen the emails they bithm of rights in the press release and the draft press release. Basically, this guy, the reason he's on the board is because he's the sign of the vice president. And you know Hunter has them edited and says you should be more subtle. So there's a lot of dishonest to hear. I mean, it's pretty transparent going through these emails, they barely even try to hide it. You know, there's one of these there's one email where he says to this Mexican billionaire, I have brought every single person you've ever asked me to bring to the FFing White House and then you go silent. I've been I appreciate you letting me stay at your resort villa. That we've been talking about business deals and partnerships for seven years. So, you know, this is a guy that he's dealing with Joe Biden's brother Jim. He's dealing with Hunter and there's this Mexican billionaire and they want to do a deal with the billionaire. So they bring him in and they meet with Joe Biden. But you don't get the Hunter doesn't get the money that he wants, and so he's basically, you know, yelling at this guy, you know, basically the Joe Biden. So one of the most interesting things in these emails, I think, is that Hunter plan for a business that would include him one of his Barisma style international quote investors, and Joe Biden. And so there's an email that says, quote in order to develop this as a platform for both JRDS, meaning Joe Biden and his son Bo. I think it's important that we have full control in twenty sixteen when JRB one comes on board. And so this is a firm that they wanted to start up that would involve Hunter, Joe Biden, and a guy named Jeff Cooper. And so Jeff Cooper is a guy that basically tried to broker a deal between Barisma and Mexico. He flew down to Mexico with Joe Biden, also worked with Hunter, trying to steer money to Hunter's company, and so he's very immersed in the worlds of both the father and the son, and he's got these gambling ventures. He's just kind of the classic kind of does whatever he can all over the world to make money. Um And so you know they had plans to um create such a company according to these emails, and then you know the other the brother Bo died, and you know, any number of other things going to happen where obviously this firm didn't actually wind up happening. But Jeff Cooper is you know, kind of fully immersed in this world as basically we'll go to any dark cranny of Eastern Europe or whatever and you can get a few bucks. Um, you know, they were receiving emails all that. Basically, what what value are they providing? As you indicated, that's what we have to ask here. And so there's emails where um, you know, Jim Biden emails Hunter and says, we've got a quick and easy oil deal for uh, you know, carl Us Slim, the richest man in the world. So there's a buyer in the seller and we don't have financing and we're not the buyer, and the well, so what are you What value are you adding to this oil deal? If you're not the buyer, you're not the seller, and you don't have financing. They just kind of insert themselves into international ventures and take money, and they often invoke Joe Biden's role. They go down to Colombia and they have a brochure that says, you know, Joe Biden is a is a key point person in the US in Colombia, and they take all these meetings about how to make money. You know, they meet with one guy and then they say, oh, well, you know this guy actually kidnap the end of another guy we met with. So they're just meeting with anyone. They don't kind of know who any of these people are. They're trying to do business with Taiwan, with Thailand at the same time as they're doing business with China, and they don't understand the conflict. They're trying to set up a deal in Qatar, which is an infamous abuser of labor rights, and the unions hate it, and they say, well, maybe we can make money by partnering Cutter with the unions. They're just kind of going all around the world without almost any understanding of what they're doing and getting emphasis to this point because not only is it Mexico, it's also Chile, it's also Canada. It's uh, you mentioned Mexico, Taiwan, Thailand, and Cutter, but also the Philippines, Israel, Turkey, the UAE, Columbia, Argentina, Uh finally uh somewhere in Africa, Ghana or Tanzania. Hunter wrote that himself, and then this whole wealth creation scheme that apparently you've had access to these emails that he exchanged with a talent agent, you know, the School of Public Policy, University of Delaware, the Family Foundation, the Institute of Foreign Relations, wealth Creation, you know, all of which you're you're you're mentioning in all of this, and then and you also put in in order to develop this as a platform for both j R B's Joe Biden's right. I think it's imperative the three of us have full control come twenty sixteen when Joe Biden j RB one comes on board. Is that Joe Biden they're talking about in twenty fourteen, Yes, exactly. And you know this Cooper guy, I mean he is he is quite the character. He was originally a lawyer that was doing his best as lawsuits with Boe Biden and Joe Biden, who was on the Judiciary committee, you know, made it said that the trial ways could like make a lot of money with these asbestos suits. He intervened in the issue. You know, time goes on and Cooper starts just kind of doing random business deals all over the world and starts getting in with Hunter and then he starts flying around the world with Joe Biden, and so he really does bridge both of their worlds and they talk about going into business together, you know. And but you know some of the the West Indies, you got to really check out the articles on the Daily Wire because it's just the drumbeat of example after example after example. Hunter goes on TV and he says, well, I just did this one thing in Ukraine because a lot of more putin is bad, and so by me taking fifty grand a month from the Ukrainians that would somehow send a message to Russia. That's not what it was. He wanted money anywhere he could get it. Some of these places didn't really want to do business with him, or he didn't know how to pull it off, but he was trying to do anything he could. They talk about, you know, maybe we can go to Tanzania and mind that, you know, Pan rivers for gold. It's just kind of it's a crazy world that this guy occupies. You know, he gets them. He's dealing with this guy in the West Indies and they said, well, you know it's got the value of ten billion dollars. And Devin Archer, who later went to jail, says he talked to its professor and we could get these can get traded and we can get ten percent in fees. We need to get these guys a meeting with your dad. So you know, these people are basically saying you can get a billion dollars if you set up a meeting with Joe Biden and they don't even understand the financial instruments that they're dealing with, the financial deals. They literally call up a professor and they say, what is this? How does the money work? And so you know, it's basically transparent attempts by essentially third world lackeys to trade on influence. And it just went on and on and on for years, and it closely tracked, um, you know, Joe Biden's where, you know, the areas of focus for his international policealing as we continue with investigative reporter Luke Rosiack is with us. So all of this is happening, and now the question is, now you did not It sounds like after reading your piece, you did not have access to the entire Hunter Biden laptop. Is that true? I've got tends of thousands of emails, and you know, I should note that there are other things on that laptop. I've been told by people that have it, people that my sources that are brief me that there are a lot of other things on there that nobody's quite revealed yet. Have you heard about them yourself? I'm not sure about that. What I've gone through so far has been limited to the to the emails, so I don't really have information about that. Okay, well, I think what you have here is a lot. I'm not being critical anyway, It's just I'm trying to get corroboration for something that my own lawyers won't let me look at ever. Period. Goodbye. I mean, it's kind of a strange moment for me and others saying it's it's pretty bad stuff. But anyway, we're gonna put your full reporting on Hannity dot Com. Great work as always, and we always appreciate you being one of us. Luke Rosia, eight hundred and nine four one sean is a number. You want to be a part of the program. Your call is coming up next for the next half hour quick break right back twenty five to the top of the hour. Eight hundred and nine four one sean. You want to be a part of the program. Look, can New York be one by a Republican? It's hard. I mean when you have New York City nine to one Democrats to Republicans registered, and there's so hardcore woke left, radical left that they can't even say riots are riots. The same people that wanted and got defunding of the police. The same people that support redistribution, the same people that think it's a good idea to give people that don't respect our laws, our borders, our sovereignty checks on top of the housing and the food and the healthcare and the education that we are paying for. It's it's it's hard upstate. New York is a shambles economically. Long Island I think is finally beginning to wake up a little bit. So I just don't know. Gavin Newsom the biggest you know, he recall is going to happen. That's that's that's a certainty. But now he's about to bribe everybody in California. Two thirds of the population will get a check from Gavin Newsom. What are we, the federal government, the Blue state bell forty billion dollars, he's got a seventy five billion dollars surplus. Well, why are we the taxpayers that elect responsible? Well not me, I mean I try, but I don't have any say in New York at all. Why do red state citizens have to bail out California when they've got a seventy five billion dollars surplus with their nearly fourteen percent state income tax rate, and their fifty cents a gallon gas tax, and their property taxes and their sales taxes. Why do we have to pay for that? What? So Gavin can then you know, aid and a beat law breaking by being a sanctuary state and not following the laws that he does disj disagrees with, and now also rewarding people here illegally with checks come from anywhere in the world. We'll give you a check, not a bad and free healthcare and a place to live and schools for your kids. Not a bad deal. We can't afford it. Not that I want to be nice and generous to people. Were the most generous country on the face of this earth. But that's not America first. That's putting America and our kids and grandkids in debt forever, in perpetuity. So the big question out there is can you get fifty percent plus one to recall Gavin Newsom. I think that's the harder vote. There's gonna be a lot of people if you get to that point. And these were called the question two is okay? Now, pick from the list of people that are running for governor. Caitlin Jenner and a bunch of other people that I think that's the hard part. Can Andrew Cuomo actually win again in New York, I'd say, yeah, Unfortunately, that's how out of touch shot you know, It's just it's madness. That's why I keep saying, if you're gonna move out of states like New York and New Jersey and Illinois in California, don't bring your liberal New Green Deal socialism with you. Leave it in the state from which you come. Don't ruin the next state that you're going to, because they're doing much better without you. And if you're going to bring it and bring your policies with you, it's going to be a disaster. There's a study out. I love this study. I mean we did it in relation to Cuomo. Is people have been migrating now for years. That's why they're losing congressional seats in states like New York and California. So why states like Texas and Florida gaining congressional seats. But they're hemorrhaging a lot of residents in the last ten years, California recording their first year ever a population decline. Florida, Texas, you know, are attracting many of these blue state refugees is a worrying trend because there's no evidence that those fleeing blue states aren't going to vote the same way they did in their old states. There's a new study from wallet hub. Never heard of them, but seems legitimate. Was on bongino dot com. I saw his website comparing the states with one criteria, taxpayer return on an investment. You calculate the metric by comparing taxes per capita to the quality of government services that the state is providing infrastructure, crime, schools, water quality, hospital systems, percent of residents in poverty, and lo and behold to little surprise, Red states ranked the best you've got in terms of the overall return on investment. New Hampshire one, Florida two, South Dakota three. Virginia's shockingly four, but they got a ton of money from DC in Northern Virginia, Missouri five, Ohio six, Texas seven, Georgia eight, then Nebraska, tennessee, and it goes on down the list. You finally get to the bottom of the list. Let's see, god, Hawaii fifty, California forty nine, New York forty four, New Jersey thirty eight. I don't know where Michigan is. I gotta find Michigan. Where's Michigan on my US? Here as a pretty long list. That's why I'm I'm looking for it. Got to be here somewhere. As she getting did a little better than I thought twenty three. It's getting worse though. All right, to our phones, we go eight hundred and nine four one, Sean, you want to join us, Chuck in Kentucky? What's up, Chuck? How are you my friend? Hey, Sean, thank you for receiving my call. I'm a former US Army Infantry officer, Sir. Six years on active duty and fourteen in the reserves, and thank you for serving your country. Thank you. I'm a hardcore conservative and I cannot believe that this country's allowing Joe Biden and Hunter Biden to get away with what they're doing. It's just it's mind boggling. It's almost as bad as history repeating itself with FDR. I have a PhD in history and I'm a historian, and I cannot believe the crimes that Hunter Biden is committed and he is not being held the answer for him. Uh, It's it's truly amazing. Uh. The Ukraine deal back in two twenty or whatever, where he was getting all that money. He should have been taken to trial. His father should have been taken to trial. It's almost as if Biden thinks the way Nixon did when he said, uh, with the prisoner, does it it's not a crime. Yes, it is a crime, and we need to look at that. And we've turned our back on our allies. I mean, China is looking in looking at work to go in and invade Taiwan. Russia's ready to prudent, is ready to go ahead. And I'm serious in the way I think about this. I think he's trying to recreate the USSR without Germany. That's the thing. I think he's trying to take Romania back, Ukraine, every all those countries he walks back under his He's on the border of Ukraine again. And that happened. The whole crimea issue when Biden and Obama were in the White House the last time. The thing that is most disturbing to me is Russian arms, Chinese arms handed over to a rand shipped to Yemen for a proxy war in the Middle East. That's problematic in terms of stability in the entire Middle East. But that's the trifecta. The only thing they need to add to their little group would be North Korea. Then we're really in a deep hole. And I think that all of these foreign leaders to you know, stick with my narrative, which I stand by. I don't think Joe is with it. He's lazy, he's getting up it, doesn't get to the office till nine thirty, and usually has less than one scheduled thing to do a day, and he does one of Why it's like he seems so exhausted, one little event, so tired, so exhausted. And you know, that's why I'm calling him warm, milky and sippy cup Joe, because he doesn't seem too together. To me. It looks like a significant decline has occurred between when he left twenty seventeen and today. That's what I see. Kelly and California the United Socialist utopia. What's up, Kelly? How are you hi? Sean? I am a lifelong Californian. I have sold my house. I'm leaving the state and due to the crazy taxes and the craziness. But one thing is I do not feel safe here anymore. The governor wins is closing the prisons. Two of them are closing, one is coming up in September letting out inmates. But in the meantime he has extra security besides his security detail. He has brought an extra officers paying overtime for twenty four seven. After the kidnapping plot in Michigan, he's added so that was in October. He's added officers twenty four seven to sit outside of his house. That is on top of his security detail. In the meantime, as Californians, we can't even get police to come to a call because they're so busy and we don't have enough hall. Well, it's not that. And they don't want to work either because they're afraid to They're not free to do their job, you know. And I'm just telling you that it's a big problem. And you know, when Comrade de Blasio came in my studio that one day and I said, all right, well, you have four armed New York City Police detectives around him protecting him. I said, does every New Yorker should they have the right to protect themselves with firearms where they live or work? And his answers, Every New Yorker has the right to be safe. I said, I didn't ask you if they're the right to be safe. I asked you, should they have the right to have in their their own protection at home or work. Every New Yorker has the right to be safe? Because the answers no, he doesn't believe that every New Yorker should be able to get a firearm, and he just didn't want to answer the question. Like a lot of other issues. Anyway, you make a good point. The biggest challenge you, mark my words, what's going to happen out in California. It's going to be question one he does. He's writing checks now to two thirds of the population of California and the lead up to this recall vote, Well, sounds a little bit to me like using while other states money when he out of the seventy five billion dollars surplus and using other states money to well, let's us say that nicely incentivize people to go out and vote for them. Unbelievable. Thank you, Kelly, appreciate it. Shepherd is in Florida. What's up, Shepherd? How are you hello? Sean? You might be wondering why anyone would vote for Biden or Bernie or Cortez, I'm here to tell you why I grew up in a family and a bronx neighborhood full of lefty socialists. With my family, it was always tax the rich, screw the rich, take it from the rich. They got their money by lying, cheating, stealing, and standing on the backs of the poor. And if they didn't, well, they were just playing lucky and they inherited it. My family not only hated wealthy people, they hated anyone who had even a little bit more than they had. If my father owned a Ford and our neighbor down the street owned a Buick, Dad was not happy. God forbid. If they owned a cadillact they must be involved in some kind of criminal chicanery, because there's no way they could afford that legitimately. Okay, fast forward to twenty twelve. My dear aunt passes away in New Jersey at the age of ninety three. My brother and I. By the way side note, my brother had a criminal record that read like a New York City phone book. We were to receive an inheritance, so we went to the lawyer's office to meet with after the day after her funeral, and he was explaining to us the probate procedure and all that. When my brother heard what we would end up paying in taxes, he hit the ceiling. He said, wait a minute here, our aunt and uncle already worked and paid taxes on this money. Why is it being taxed again? Well, the irony was so delicious I couldn't resist taking the other side. I said, well, wait a minute now, mister tax the rich, we're going to have paid off homes, paid off cars, nice little something in the bank, nice little something in retirement. Don't you think we should pay our fair share? Mm? And he said, but where they're rich, I said, I said, well to some people, we are. Now the shoe is on the other foot. How's it feel? He started yelling some profanity, and at that point the lawyer stepped in and said, gentlemen, this is a legal proceeding. Would you mind keeping your bickering at home? Wow? What an incredible story. I wish I could. I wish I could talk to you another hour. I will tell you this. You know, it's what did Margaret Thatcher say? Socialisms rate till you run out of somebody else's money. I don't understand class empty because I did everything on my own. I started with nothing. In my adult life, I would financially independent at ten. And I'm not kidding my parents, my father, this is a flophouse to you, because I just sleep there and eat whatever food was in the refrigerator. And then basically I worked all the time and I made my own money. I didn't need my parents money. I was fiercely independent, but I didn't have money like real money. And all the years that I worked in restaurants contracting, it was hard to save even a little bit. But I was always a bit of a saver and started in radio. You don't get paid when you start in radio. Even when you get paid, you don't get paid. It's like you can't even balance get a cheap apartment barely. So I've been on both sides of it. I can tell you, though, there's something about the dignity of work, and when you start working and you pay taxes, the lessons you learn are pretty amazing. Appreciate the call, Shepherd, call about any time. We appreciate you joining us right Hannity Tonight, nine Eastern on Fox.
