This is getting more interesting by the minute. Glad you are with us right down our toll free telephone number. You know what we're calling this deep state gate, state sponsored sabotage. You know, I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, but those that have been wrong in lying to their audiences for over a year, this is outrageous. People like Hannity, they're attacking the FBI and our intelligence community with abandoned and they're and they're getting the support of Russian trolls and bots. This is this is what I'm reading and hearing about myself today. Let me be very clear to you idiots that missed the biggest story in your career. That's say you work in this business of journalism. You know those of you that you know have this inner circle amongst yourself and this little bubble you've created for yourself, and this little echo chamber that you've created for yourself. Let me tell you right now, there's nobody on the air that I know of today that has throughout his entire career supported and praised rightly. So law enforcement, which includes police officers, and that would mean fireman and our military will add them to the list. Paramedics, uh, the FBI, the CIA, and yeah, the intelligence community, of which I have many friends in the FBI, have many friends in the intel community. They all thank me for what I am doing. They're more disgusted than I am about the latest developments. I've always gone out of my way to say that this is not the rank and file. This is not the special agent in a field office working for the FBI. This is not the person that does the deep intelligence dive using the the weaponry of intelligence that is more sophisticated than it's ever been. I'm act, I absolutely positively have been making a distinction. But that doesn't stop those on the left. You know, do you realize at the end of this, we're gonna we're gonna see how wrong these people have been, how of course they have been. I see that they're all obsessed with ah Mueller set to question Bannon and Trump on Flynn and Gonkomi obstruction of justice. Okay, so you couldn't get anybody on the Trump Russia thing. Now we're onto that. Okay, why not, We'll try We'll try anything that sticks at this point. Um. But what we're what has happened is the media's missed the biggest story of their careers, and they've missed it because of really blind partisan viciousness on their part. They never remember. They laughed at the idea that Trump was gonna run, They laughed at the idea that he could win. On election night, it was like a funeral watching these people on television and Election night November eight, every network, same thing. Funeral. It was like they lost their best friend. They couldn't believe and they have since that time not accepted the verdict of the American people. Now, the problem is, and I've been very specific as those people at the highest levels of the FBI, of the Justice Department, and of the Intel community have been they have done things that are extraordinarily dangerous to the rule of law and to our constitution, our Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable search and seizure. And what we're doing is slowly and now pretty surely exposing all of this. And it's all beginning to come together, and we're just gonna keep going until we get to the absolute truth about what happened, with the hope that something like this could never happen again in the United States of America. And the fact that we're doing their job for them is I guess frustrating to them, and so they want to lash out against me. I think the funniest thing I've ever seen is, uh, you know, Mother Jones is like this radical, radical left wing you know publication. I don't even think they published. I think they're just an online thing that nobody reads anymore. And the headline is and they put a nice ugly picture up of me with like the Twitter birds, except they're not blue and white, it's red and white. And Sean Hannity is now a favorite weapon of Russian trolls attacking America. I guess the next thing they're gonna accuse me of of colluding with Vladimir Putin. Remember they went after poor Michael Cohen, the attorne for Donald Trump, and and and they tried, they tried to say, I he went to Russia and he shows his passport. No, never been to Russia. Whoopsie daisy. Anyway, what's funny about this? It goes soon after Trump sah blah blah, Michael Flynn plea deal special counsel. Kremlin link trolls began wrapped me up their social media attacks on the Russia investigation, tweeting out dozens of articles from Fox News far right outlets aimed at undermining the credibility of the FBI, the Department of Justice so called deep state. When we have a problem with the deep state, which I've been outlining for you, that's why I'm calling this deep state gate, state sponsored sabotage. Yeah, I am calling it. That does that mean I'm talking about everybody in the sea I know everybody. No, not everybody in the FBI. You know, it's just like saying, if you have one bad pastor, it does something wrong. Well, not every pastors, you know, acts that way. They are good people. And just because you have one bad cop doesn't meet every cop is bad. But you do have some people that have abused their power, and we now have the evidence to prove it, and we're proving it every single day, and we've it's taken a long time. But they laughed when Donald Trump tweeted out that he had been spied upon. Well, we broke that story almost a year ago. It's taken a year to get to this point, and what have we learned all of a sudden. Donna Brazil, she was the chair of the d n C and when she took over after Debby, Wasson and Schultz got into her problems and she did a deep dive into the d n C. And what did she finds? She found that Hillary Clinton and the d n C had rigged the election in Hillary's favor. Okay, I'll accept that is truth. I've never in my entire life heard of an FBI director in the case of James Comey. And now we have the text messages with Peter Struck. Peter Struck was involved in everything, and he had a background in an expertise in all things Russia. And he's the one that was saying there's no there there by the way, let me let me go back to that for just remember. So this is the guy that is calling Trump all sorts of names, f Trump, Blah, blaze, lowthesome, and on and on and on from there with his mistress girlfriend. That's the girl lawyer, the woman lawyer that was advising Andrew McCabe. Andrew McCabe and Struck and Page were the ones talking about an insurance policy of God forbid. Trump wins, and then of course they're talking about Loretta Lynch and Loretta Lynch it's a it's a profile encourage because Loretta Lynch knows that they're not gonna tight Hillary. We know it's a sham. And Struck and call Me, You're writing an exhoneration in early May of Hillary Clinton. They don't interview Hillary Clinton till the fourth of July weekend, and seventeen other key players in the investigation they had an interviewed. So you're writing an exoneration of somebody that you didn't investigate. That sounds like the fixes in. That sounds to me like call me and Struck And and Loretta Lynch at some level and Page at some level, like they knew the fix was in so that they're chosen candidate wouldn't get indicted, and they would, you know, subvert the rule of law to allow her to continue to run for president. I'm sure it would have been chaotic if they indicted her. We know she committed multiple felonies. We've been over the numerous times on radio and TV. So they made the decision. So the fix was in on the primary then the fixes in that they're not gonna do a real investigation, They're gonna exonerate before investigate. And then we know that, you know, up to a year now, we have no evidence of Trump Russia collusion, because there is no evidence of Trump Russia collusion, and the fact that Muller and his corrupt merry band of Obama, Clinton and d n C donors and his you know, corrupt Andrew Weissman, who loses in the Supreme Court nine zero, tens of thousands of people lose their jobs, and then of course for innocent people go to jail Meryl executives only to be found uh an overturn in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Yeah, let's hire that guy with his great track record, and then let's hire only people that donate to Hillary Clinton, Obama and the DNC. No Republican. We can't find a Republican investigator anywhere. The same guy that hired Peter Struck and Lisa Page. They both worked on this thing too. What's fascinating is we got a new bit of information. Sarah Carter is going to break it in the next Arrow'll give you a little bit of a headline here after Peter Struck and and sends Page Lisa page of text on March there's no they're they're regarding the Trump Russia collusion allegation. I don't think I want to go work on that. There's no there there. This was his area of expertise. He's talking about joining Mulla a special counsel. And then a few minutes later we're now finding out that he sent a text saying, all an investigation that leads to an impeachment. Maybe I should. We already know he thinks the president is loathesome. We already know that he's saying f Trump. We already know he wanted Hillary to win. We already know that he was the one that eventually ended up interviewing Hillary Clinton and giving her a pass. Lauretta Lynch, you know they're writing each other Page and Struck on July one, three days before Hillary is even interviewed on that particular case. Ah, she's showing such a profile and courage. She knows that we're not doing anything to Hillary. She's doing it anyway. Oh, such bad timing that she got caught with Bill Clinton on the tarmac and Phoenix. They're talking about their grandkids. Yeah, we believe that you know this is this is now come down to whether or not you've got a rigged primary. I would think that would be caused for an investigation, a rigged Hillary Clinton email server investigation. Nobody writes an exoneration before investigation. Anyone tells you that. Give me another example. Then you've got Hillary. We didn't know for a long time she her campaign funneled through a lawyer up to twelve million dollars and also through the same lawyer with the d n C that Donna Brazil says she was controlling the money to pay for a fusion gps M I six agent hired, you know, Christopher Steele dossier with known lies, propaganda, misinformation. I guess if you rigged the primary, it is not a bad idea to try and ring the general election. Why not? And the worst part of all of this is that information, those lies were used as a as a predicate to get a FISA warrant under the pretext of going after Carter Page, but in reality it was to spy on an opposition candidate in an election year. I know some of you in the media are having a hard time keeping up. That's why I'm saying it is. I'm trying to explain this in the simplest terms possible. And not only was that fies of warrant issued, but then it continued after Donald Trump won and now we're hearing about, Oh, let's see a secret society meeting among these top people, not ranking file top people. Wow. By the way, I wonder if the Russians, how ironic would it be at the Russians had hacked Peter Struck in Lisa pages text messages. Maybe they have copies of them anyway? Eight nine Poll one, Shawn is a toll free telephone number. You want to be a part of the program. Got a lot coming up in the course of the show today. Uh, Cheryl Atkinson, Byron York will stop by today and Chairman good Luck. Chairman good Luck is doing a lot of good work along with it. Looks like Trey Goudy is woken up from his slumber recently. And Devin Newness, we'll get to that deep state gate, state sponsored sabotage. Isn't that what it really is all about? A deep state, A group of people that think they know better than the American people, that ignore crimes, that don't investigate that I mean, if we're going to allow fourth Amendent constitutional protection is to be destroyed like this, we will lose our country, and just for political partisan purposes because they didn't like Donald Trump. And a watergate on steroids, the deep state betrayal of a duly elected president, call of what at the ultimate deep state betrayal of the American people and the president. A coordinated deep state effort to destroy the president, deep state subversion of American democracy, federally funded betrayal of a president, government against the people, the deep state war and the president. Now this is these are things that all of you, regardless of where your politics X are, need to understand is fundamentally corrupt. You've got to understand this should not happen. You should not have people as abusively biased as Peter Struck and Lisa Page involved an investigation. You can't allow a guy to be like Robert Mueller to run a special counsel and Robert Mueller hire democratic donors. You can't hire somebody like Andrew Weissman, with his atrocious track record of abuse and failure. In one case, he held back exculpatory evidence. Tens of thousands of people lost their jobs. Out of the end run Anderson accounting investigation that he headed up. And then it was a nine oh decision obstruction reversal in the U. S. Supreme Court. You never get a nine zero, Never get a nine zero in the Supreme Court, Well you hardly do. Then you put you know, Merrill executives in jail for a year, and that's overturned by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. And then you've got reports of I was listening to Ron Johnson talking about, you know, high level FBI officials said to be involved in anti Trump's secret society meeting off campus. What the hell is going on here? You know? Now we we have Peter Struck in Lisa Page. You know they knew that it was never gonna happen against Hillary Clinton. Well, that's a sham of an investigation. Do you believe in equal justice under the law? Do you believe in the constitution? Do you believe that we should apply laws equally? James Comey writing the exoneration before ever investigating Loretta Lynch knowing about it, Struck knowing about it, Macabe knowing about it, talk of an insurance policy, and just like Watergate. Now we got eighteen and a half minutes of missing tape, five months of missing text. Oh that happened to ten percent of agents at the time. We're now learning. Okay, alright, to the top of the hour. I'm gonna get to your calls here. No, um, I'm trying not to be repetitive. But every time you get new information like we have today and we'll have tonight, Um, it's you gotta set the foundation. I mean this, this is a very I mean, look, I understand most people's lives are busy. This is what my job is is to try and bring you up to speed with the latest information. But if you missed yesterday's show the day before, I've just got to assume you gotta be brought up to speed. So a little bit of this becomes repetitive as I wrap it around all the new information, and the new information is as I was telling you earlier, I mean, this is pretty spectile. I mean struck in page regarding well, there's no there there. I mean that that speaks volumes of how none of this should ever happen. And then of course a text Lisa page later, you know, investigation at least to an impeachment. Maybe I should and struck his up to his eyeballs and all of this. I don't know what to make of Ron Johnson's comments. And he was on Fox News last night. I think he was on Brett Pairs program. I've heard from someone who has talked to our committee that there's a group of individuals in the FBI who are holding secret off site meetings. He said, I think there are indications there were a number of high level FBI officials, again not rank and file, that we're holding secret meetings off site. And he revealed that the committee had an informant when he said that he is still connecting the dots between the sources information and the text messages that he and other lawmakers have reviewed. And he said, understand that struck in page were very high level in the FBI, not rank and file. Hello, conspiracy TV, MSNBC. I am not talking about rank and file fbilaw enforcement or intelligence. I am talking about the highest levels abusing power anyway. And then he said that these are not low level underlings. He said, these are individuals that add access to the highest level to the Director of the FBI. So all beginning to make sense, anyway, listen to what Ron Johnson said on Brett Pair Show. What this is all about is further evidence of corruption more than bias, but corruption at the highest levels of the FBI. And that secret society we have. We have an informant that's talking about a group that we're holding secret meetings off site. There's there's so much smoke here, There's so much specious Let's let's stop. There a secret society that a secret meetings offside of the Justice Department correction and you have an informant saying that, yes, has anything more about that, No, we have to dig into it. That's that's this is not a distraction again, this is this is biased potentially corruption at the highest levels of the FBI that is now invested gaining. And now, just by the way, Robert Mueller he used to run the FBI, uh, he is in no position to do an investigation over this kind of misconduct. So I think at this point in time we probably should be looking at a special council to undertake this investigation. But Congress is gonna have to continue to dig. That is bizarre to me anyway, secret meetings off site. Um, now the FBI is saying that as much as ten percent and I'm reading from the this is this was broke on Fox News earlier today. Up to nearly ten percent of the FBI's thirty thirty five thousand employee phones may have had the same glitch, if you will, as Struck and Pages phones. I don't know what that means. Um, all right, I want to I'll get to the phones here. We'll take a lot of your calls, comments, your questions, anything you want to talk about. But I am assuming this is um something that's on everybody's mind. Or Lando, Florida News Radio w d B OH. We have Sally next. Hi, Sally, how are you hey? Sean? My question is, is Peter Struck the mastermind behind all of the things that he's doing against Trump? And who is getting paid for all that? Well, they're all getting paid. The fact that Struck and Page aren't fired is beyond any comprehension I have. Can stay since we know they abused their power, had a huge bias, they didn't reveal the bias. The bias was eventually picked up by Robert Mueller. But remember it was Struck that was writing the exoneration with Comey before they ever investigated Hillary. It was Struck that interviewed Hillary. It was struck that interviewed General Flynn, struck his up to his eyeballs, and pretty much all of this stuff, and the fact that he I think he should be fired, paid should be fired, McCabe should be fired, Homey is fired. I'd like to know Rod Rosenstein's position and all this, but not only that, all of them need to be investigated. And I actually think we need a special counsel now to investigate this mess completely. And Robert Mueller should be investigated as well. I agree. Thank you, all right, Sally, thank you. You know way people friends of mine is saying you're done, Hannity, that's it. You've taken on the deep state. They'll get you six ways and sideways. To quote Chuck Schumer, what a sad commentary, What a sad commentary that the people that have the most powerful tools that we entrust, the most powerful tools of intelligence. I think that they would know better that they would turn it on their own people. President elects latest latest unsolicited pronouncement on the intelligence community, this was history just a little while ago tonight. And you see the scare quotes there. The intelligence briefing on so called Russian hacking was delate until Friday, perhaps more time needed to build a case. Very strange because he's taking these shot. This antagonism is taunting to the intelligence. You take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you. So even for a practical, supposedly hard nosed businessman, he's being really dumb to do this. What do you think the intelligence community would do if they were But I from what I am told, they are very upset with how he has treated them and talked about them. The only thing that could suggest is they would use the weaponry, the things, the tools, the power that we give them and abuse it. Sick ways to Sunday to screw you because they don't like you, because they disagree with you, kind of speaks volumes about about corruption. I'd like to believe that our intelligence community would not do that. I would like to believe there are people with integrity that honor what we entrust them with and not turn those tools of intelligence against their own people, because that sounds like a police state what they're describing, what Schumer's describing. Jim and Idaho next on the Sean Hannity Show, What's Up? How are you Hey? I'm great. How about you, I'm good, sir. What's happening. Hey, I've been following this really closely, and and I the only way I can describe it is, I think that what these handful of people have done is the biggest civil rights violation this country has ever seen. I think it's the biggest voting rights violation a country has ever seen. And I think it falls under the law of sedition. And frankly, I'm taking a really personally. I have a vote, and they're not going to take it. They're not gonna sit in the back room and office somewhere and take my vote. It's just not going to happen. I don't think there's any way to put this nicely, you know, other than the ways that we have been rightly characterizing this. I mean, this is a you know, deep state I'm calling a deep state gate. It's state sponsored samotash, and they wanted to use, they were willing to use unsubstantiated Hillary Clinton bought and paid four lies after they helped exonerate her when we know she committed felonies. We know it. I mean, it's it's it's so obvious. It's it's like there's never been an open and shut case like Hillary and the email server. Miss Handling classified top secret Special Access Program information is a crime. Destroying such is a crime. James Comey's July press conference, he described crimes committed, but he had already put the fix in. Yeah, you should take it personally because it impacts the rule of law, equal justice under the law, you know, protections, constitutional protections against unreasonable search and seizure. I mean, this is an abusive power and a conspiracy at that to abuse power. It's frightening, actually, and we've got to get ahold of this or we lose our country. It's that simple. Let's go to Keith in Claremont in Florida. Next, Sean Hannity Show. How are you hey, Sean great? Thanks, first time caller. Hey, I'm I'm still upset that we haven't started investigating uranium one, and I think that our Russian collusion investigation is covering that up. I really think the Mueller is a big part of that investigation. He will be investigated once they get I'll tell you questions we had and we will hear. I mean, look everything, it's only so many enemies you can have and and fight at one time. Similarly, there's how many stories you can dig deep like this into. But the Iranian one story hasn't gone anywhere. There was two weeks ago an eleven count indictment on it, and we have learned that, in fact, there is an ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice into it. We just didn't know about it til a couple of weeks ago. We have an eleven account indictment. But here's the thing. Robert Mueller was the f BEHIND director. They had an FBI spy informant inside of this network that Vladimir Putin a bad actor. He is from this hostile nation, Russia, and they wanted a foothold in the uranium market. We don't even have enough uranium for ourselves, never mind allowing someone else to have control over it. And Putin's thugs in America were involved in bribery and extortion and kickbacks and money laundering and racketeering. And we had a guy on the inside telling him, hey, this is happening. That's eighteen months before Siphius ever bothered to approve. The nine different cabinet positions approved this uranium one sale, which resulted in Putin taking control of of our uranium. Robert Mueller knew that eighteen months in advance. Eric Holder knew that eighteen months in advance. And we're gonna hear from this guy that had infiltrated this network for six years. Victoria Tunsing is representing him. You there, go ahead, Sean Mullergic. Moller escorted tent of our uranium to the Russians. Although I know the story you're talking, I know what you're talking about. But all of this is gonna come to. All of this is next. There's a lot of cleaning up we've got to get done here. Let's go to Mike in Arizona. Mike High, how are you? Uh Hey, Sean, I've got a friend in Los Andrews who does forensic computer work, and again and again he's told me that when there is de spoliation of evidence, especially when they've been ordered to h keep it u the the presumption is that there is guilt. Horse, it's gone. This is listen. The only thing is is how good a job did they do? Because in the case of Hillary, we were able to retrieve some of these emails back the one she deleted and acid washed and use bleach bit on and and s bashed up devices. It's really insane. I mean the fact that people say, oh, you gotta move on, move on. Well, if we move on, then you let people get away with crimes that the rest of us would go to jail for. Ye, that's a probably probably nothing surprised me at all, because the real issue here is it could be Hillary Clinton going to jail, Bill Clinton going to jail, and maybe even Obama. I think the fact that Obama emailed Hillary and then they changed it to a high ranking American official, that's pretty damning on the part of Obama, who said he never never knew a thing. If I was saying I'd get a lawyer, he probably already has one. By the way, I guess you can see why a lot of these people hate me now. They don't like they don't like that we're talking about this every day, trust me. Yeah, and Sarah Carter too, I love her all. Listen, We've got a team of deputies here that are rock stars, John Sarah, Greg Jarrett, Victoria Tunsing, Tom Fitt and j Secular rock stars all of them. Yeah, Truck, and you tell me, is it true? I heard that Obama took a two billion dollars that was UH earmarked for healthcare and he appropriated a million and a billion and a half of it. I'm sorry, and UH for neighborhood improvement. And that's your smacks of I would bet that they if you. I honestly don't know. Off the top of my head. I don't know. I wish I did. I wish I had an answer for you. I will look into it, doesn't matter of fact. Athan's looking it up. Now back to our phones as we say hi to Malcolm St. John's Florida. A lot of Florida calls today. What's going on? Hey, how are you doing? Sean? Thank you for everything that you're doing. Thank you. I just want to know if this Russian Trump collusion thing turns out to be a big hope. I want to know if the taxpayers can get reimbursed by h crony. I've got I got something I'm gonna call for on tonight's TV show. I don't want to do it down today because I'm I'm building a case. But the answer is, you're never gonna see a dime back. And Uh, I think Mueller. I think Mueller's office is leaking. You know, it's an old story. What they're saying, Oh, you want to interview Trump. Okay, we've heard that a million times. I wouldn't let the president if it was if I was his attorney. You don't go near Robert Mueller because this is a corrupt investigation and I think it's been predicated on you know, so many and it just look look at what they did here. It's something. And if I'm the attorney for Paul Manafort, I'm the attorney for General Flynn. Oh, there'd be a million motions I'd be delivering. All Right, we got a lot coming up in the course of the program Byron York Sheryl Atkinson chairman. Good lad is up next at the top of the hour. All right, when we come back, the latest on deep state Gate. Yes, state sponsored sabotage trying to steal and influence a presidential election and un seat a duly elected president. The news and information you will not get from the all network fake news CNN or conspiracy TV, MSNBC or CBS, NBC or ABC, or the New York Times or Washington Post. No, this is your show will continue. Hi, glad you with us our to Sean Hannity shaw A toll free numbers eight hundred nine for one. Shawn, if you want to be a part of the program. There's a lot of things going on within Congress that I I want to report to you. And uh, it's an honor to have back on the program. Chairman. Good lady is at the House Judiciary Committee. Chairman Sarah Carter, a Fox News contributor investigative journalist. Welcome both of you, Sarah, I know you have news. I want to first get the Chairman good lad. Um. There's been a lot of a lot of questions Chairman, about what should happen, as it were, lates to everything that we have all been talking about now for some time, and and especially you know, as it relates to the investigation and the Special Council and James Comey's actions and Peter Struck and Lisa Page and and Andrew McCabe and and Rod Rosenstein and others. Um, what do you think should happen? Well, a lot of things need to happen. First of all, this investigation by the Judiciary Committee and the Oversight and Government Reform Committee. Trey Goudy Chairman needs to commit continue to work. We have worked for a few months now We have looked at thousands of documents, We have interviewed some witnesses. We have plenty more to talk to, both in terms of private interviews, but also some will need to come back and test by publicly eventually, and that goes right to the top of the Department and the FBI. So it's UH, it's very concerning. We need to find those five months worth of texts UH and keep the pressure on to do that. And we shouldn't just accept that, UH they can produce them, they may be able to be located by some other means. And also we need to look at the other means by which people have communicated with each other about these very disturbing UH events. So all of that will continue forward, UH, and we're going to continue to press for more documents. I know that UH Devin Noon is chairman of the Intelligence Committee, is working with his committee UH to have a vote I think soon to release a memo, which is really the only way you can let the American people know what's going on here. You can't release thousands of classified documents. You've got to protect sources and methods of gathering information live will be endangered. But they're working hard to release a memo that takes out all the the classified source information. You've read this memo, right, sir, You've read the memo, you went over and looked at how what are the adjectives, the words you'd use to describe it? Well, I want to be careful here because there's much more to come. But this is very concerning, and this is something very important for the American people to know. We're talking about UH an issue that goes to power, related to the election of the highest office in the land and involving both of the candidates for that office, and quite frankly, Republicans and Democrats should be disturbed about what was going on and when I I don't know if you how how often you've got a chance to watch my TV show, but I have talked at length about for example, I bothers me that the fix was in and Donna Brazil says that Democratic primary was rigged. I could only imagine how the media would react if it was Donald Trump. Um. But then it goes as to further and then you've got an exoneration being written by Peter Struck and James Comey and apparently Loretto Lynch was in on it. Long before they ever interviewed Hillary Clinton. We learned this from this, isn't it. I've never heard of that. How people in the federal period of investigation and the America's premier law enforcement organization, by the way, it still is because there's tens of thousands of people. They're protecting US, fighting crime, preventing terrorist text. But this premier organization at the at the top in some of the key positions, is striking the contrast between how they handled the Clinton email investigation and how they're handling the Trump Russia investigation. Well, and that's what I want to ask you. So the fix was in obviously, in my opinion this I've never heard of an exoneration being written months before you interview the key witnesses in a case. And and and then we've got a dossier that was bought and paid for full of Russian lies and misinformation. And I would argue that that was that was to propagandize and light of the American people to influence a general election. But maybe some would call that op research. Uh, I don't. And then the scary thing is that it was used as a basis for a FISA warrant against an opposition party candidate in the lead up to an election and then used to spy on a president elect and his team. Am I missing anything here? Well? This is something that is why the American people need to hear more about this so they can look at it, and why this this investigation needs to proceed on, and why the Justice Department and the FBI need to clean house. Well, I I agree with you, and I'm it's just very scary to me on a whole variety of levels. Uh, Sarah Carter, let me bring you into this now. You are kind enough and nice enough to bring me into your loop on a story that you're actually working on for tonight. And uh, as apparently we've something as it relates to the Struck and Lisa Page emails when they were both talking I guess, amongst each other and and texting each other back and forth. I'd still like the five months. I'd like to see the missing five months, but very specifically, when Peter Struck sends Page a memo on March nineteen saying there's no there there, he follows it up with something that you found? What is it? Well? And I think this is fascinating because it was one of the pieces of text messages that were discussed, of the newly released text messages, but everyone kind of seemed to walk right over it. But at you know, at twelve thirty am on March nineteen, this is just two days after the Special Counsels convened, you know, Struck sends Lisa Page a text message. He talks about the know they're there, He says for me, and in this case, I personally have a sense of unfinished business, unleashed it with m y E. Which he's talking about the midear Exam, and we're in reference to the Clinton investigation. Now I need to fix it and finish it. And then ten minutes later they're back and forth, back and forth on this Special Council and whether or not he's going to join it or not. He says to her at twelve four am, an investigation leading to impeachment And he asked it as a question. Yeah, So in other words, all, wait, wait a minute. If I can investigate, there's all there there, But if it leads to impeachment, that's what it sounds like to me. That's how it reads to me. That's how it's reading to other members of Congress who really want to understand what was going on between these two and really want to question. I'm sure Chairman good lot Um is from from what he's been saying, is just as concerned think about this. A person with such a central rule in the Special Council, as we know Peter Struck had, I mean, we know his background. He was deputy assistant director of the Counterintelligence Division. He had access, he was involved in the Russia investigation, he was involved in the Clinton server investigation. Here he's talking about joining this Special Council and seeing it appear ly as a way to impeach the President of the United States, a duly elected president of the United States. And I'm in agreement with Chairman good Luck on this. I think not only do they need to try to retrieve which I have been told, uh Mr Chairman and Sean, that those text messages, if they have those Samsung five cell phones, they will be able to retrieve those text messages because even if they were wiped off the cell phones, they can they leave ghost markers. And that's what I was told by a number of sources, even sources within the FBI that have done this in the past, and they can go in and get those text messages. So if they have those samsone five, there should be no problem in getting those text messages. Do we know where those phones are? Mr? Chairman, We do not. And one would presume that if uh, you became concerned about this, these thousands of text messages UH and took the step of removing Mr Struck from the Mueller investigation and sending him to the personnel department, Which is an interesting thing in and of itself that you would want to have in your possession those devices, would you not? You would? Do you? Do you have any doubt that Lisa Struck in and uh, I'm sorry, Peter Struck and Lisa Paige should be fired. Do you have any doubt that Andrew McCabe should be fired considering he was involved? We believe in the insurance policy comments text messages between them. I think more facts need to come out about some of the people, but the the but the the the absolute bias, and the talk about a secret society and uh that harks back to the earlier to talk about an insurance policy, all of this racist shoes questions that if I were the personnel director, I'd go to the director of the FBI and say you know what, we got a problem here with these employees. What are we gonna do? And I would haul him in there and I'd ask all kinds of questions, which maybe they've done that maybe we'll find out. But unless there's really at explanations for all these things, Uh, there are a number of people in the department who should not still be there. Well, I mean not only not be there, but shouldn't they be investigating? I mean, in other words, do you feel that the absolutely agreed Yeah, And I think there's got to should this investigation. I'm beginning to believe that the only way it's gonna be fair is to have the appointment of another special counsel. And then it raises a question for me, do you support that? And what does this mean about Mueller's investigation? From the get call that it was doesn't mean it was predicated on phony information that was bought and paid for. I don't want to draw any inclusion conclusions about the Muller investigation until we see the facts, but let me just say I think it's important that that investigation continue, but it's got to be uh, in a manner that the American people trust, and it's impartial and obviously, UH, the information coming out is concerning there. But I but I would not call for ending Mueller's investigation. What I would call for, however, and it happened for months, is the appointment of a second special Council to look at all the improprieties that took place with regard to how Hillary Clinton's investigation was handled, and the the meeting on the tarmac, and the UH decision by Comey to make this announcement himself, and the changing of his statement to take out words that were critical to whether or not she met the language of the law in terms of violing the law in terms of gross negligence, and a whole host of other issues like that. Now, whether this follows on that, I think you know your question is a very good one. We should continue our investigation, and we should continue to press for UH an independent accounting of this, and we should also continue to press for at the highest levels of the Justice Department and the FBI UH and accounting for this as well. Do you see any evidence of Trump Prussia collusion after a year of investigation? Uh? Well, first of all, I'm not involved in the investigations, so I don't want to just conclusions there, but I haven't seen any evidence of it. Okay, understand Sarah, what else could you tell me that's it? I think, I think yeah. And I think the important thing too is to remember that it's not just Peter Struck and Lisa Page. This keeps coming back. I mean, this is what we have as far as the bulk of evidence that we're seeing from these text messages that were released by the Inspector General in the d o J. But there were other people involved, and Chairman good Luck brought this up, you know, former FBI Director Comy. There should be a re questioning of Comy because Comy testified that he didn't make a decision until after he interviewed Hillary Clinton. But it appears that he was not being forthright and maybe even apparently lying. I mean, they would have to question him again because he made that decision way before. If we look at the documents, they were making changes way before they even interviewed Hillary Clinton, so it appeared his decision was already made. I would like to see him requestioned. I also think, and I know Andrew McCabe has been interviewed both behind closed doors and and in front of Congress, but I would like to know what Andrew McCabe's deputy director, Andrew McCabe's role was in this, because I mean, the buck stops there, the buck stops at Comy and Andrew McCabe's office, So what were they involved in? What did they know? I'm hearing all kinds of rumblings that they know a lot more than what's been out there in public. So we need to have these answers because this is about an election, This is about the American people, This is about our our scales of justice, and this is about the FBI, whose main role is to be objective and seek the facts. And what we're seeing here appears to be a concerted effort by members within the FBI to to basically change the results of of of an election. Um also uh possibly even uh release you know of criminality and behavior within the Clinton server investigation. I mean, there is a lot here, and I think the American people really shine deserve some answers. I think the biggest fear I have, Chairman good Luck. My last question to you is that, yeah, I think that this was all designed and and a phony dossier bought and paid for by one candidate, was designed to influence an election, and that same dossier was then used as a foundation to get a FISA warrant, and that was to hurt the other candidate under false pretenses, and then also an incoming president. It seems like that in that sense, it's a conspiracy. Would you agree with that? Well, we've got to get the facts. We've got to get the facts out, uh, and we've got to continue this investigation. Uh and uh. Then I think we draw the conclusions about what exactly happened and what crimes may have been committed. But there certainly is plenty for us to be worried about and plenty of work for us to do. All right, sir, thank you, and we'll see you Sarah tonight on Hannity nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel. We'll break this news in full. She'll have an article up by then Sarah Carta dot com. How so, now the House intel Democrats. By the way, Adam Schiff, I know what he wants to do in his next life. I do. He wants to work at MSNBC. He's on he's on TV, lying just as much as the anchors are. It's like a fixture there. Anyway, they're releasing their own memo response to the one put out other Republicans. According to Adam Schiff, and he said, they're selectively and misleadingly characterizing classified information to protect the president. I doubt it. I doubt it. It's too and they have the corroborating evidence. Let's release it all and let the American people decide. How's that when we ask Adam Schiff if he's gonna do that? All right? We got a lot more coming up today. Rylkin send at the bottom of the hour, and you may remember she wrote the book Smear How shady political operatives and fake news control what you see, what you think, and how you vote. Also Byron York has been doing some great work over at the Washington Examiner. Will check in with him. We got an amazing breaking news edition of Hannity tonight where literally working on things as we speak. We'll have it already for you by nine pm Eastern on the Fox News channel. Will continue. A whole bunch of documents, pages, memos, emails are missing. How do you explain that this has nothing to do with documents? Will zero? We have a president United States who runs the executive branch, that is, he runs the FBI, the CIA, the State Department every time they disagree with him. Instead of saying, I represent the American people by running the government, he says, let me persuade you Americans not to trust your government. Don't trust the CIA in Russia, don't trust federal judges when they disagree with me. Don't trust Rex Stillers. And he shouldn't be negotiating with the North Koreans until he should. And now we're saying one side of the House representing President Trump saying I want to further denigratee the U. S Government, persuade the American people that their taxes are going for wrong for purposes, instead of saying, I'm gonna have a hearing with Democrats and Republicans and get to the bottom of this. This is not about documents. It's about persuading people that the investigations inappropriate and feel the fact that the Chairman of the House Intelligence and Committee, Devin Donas, won't share a four page memo he wrote with the FBI, well, it's not just sharing the moment. How How do you think he understands the details of how you conduct surveillance? Do you think he knows what the laws? Do you think he knows what FBI regulations are. Do you think he's he's read through the telephone book of FBI regulations. This is about a hatchet job, and the hatchet job is on the effort to say what happened during the election with the Russian involvement with with the Trump people. Maybe nothing, but we won't know from the Congress because Devin Unions won't allow a nonpartisan investigation take place. It's unprecedented that he that he would be accusing the FBI of something and not allow them to see what he's accusing them of. I mean, it's ridiculous on its face, and the FBI has a right to complain about it. You know, these people on the Hall network fake nusse in and and are they really That's stupid because it's an investigation of the Justice Department and of the FBI and then not gonna cue them into the very things they're looking into. And there should be an investigation into all of this, and frankly, there ought to be a special counsel appointed because it's gotten that bad. I mean, I don't even know where to start in terms of I mean this, these people, you know what it is. Everybody in the mainstream media has bought into a phony, false, fraudulent narrative. They bought into a lie. And here we are a year later, and not only is there no evidence of Trump Russia collusion, we do have evidence of a lot of collusion, the collusion to fix a primary election with Hillary Clinton. Just asked on a Brazil the collusion between Struck and James called me to write an exam neration before any investigation. And now we know that Loretta Lynch knew about this way before Hillary Clinton was even interviewed. Well, that sounds like allusion to me. Then a Hillary Clinton bought and paid for phony Russian dacier with salacious details that even Fusion GPS didn't even try to verify. They tried to use that so they could influence and rig the general election against Donald Trump. But even worse, they went and used this phony, unsubstantiated information, false information, Russia propaganda bought and paid for by one party to sabotage another party. And you're wondering why I am calling this deep state gate state sponsored sabotage, because that's exactly what it was from the get go. It's unbelievable. Joining us now is Cheryl Atkinson. She's the host of Sinclair Media's Full Measure, author of the brand new books Smere How shady political operatives and fake news control what you see, what you think, and how you vote. He had a very cryptic tweet the other day, the truth eventually finds a way to get told. TikTok. You stole my TikTok thing. Well, you know, I've been covering for quite some time, things issues and things that are I think all related in the end in ways we're maybe not looking at a big picture. And I think my end of my first book stone walled or perhaps began it with a little quote that said, the truth finds a way to be told eventually. And I believe that. But I think in some respects we're looking at maybe some of the media looking at little pieces of this puzzle and not the big picture. Because there is a lot of focus on what allegedly happened to Trump, the Trump campaign and Trump officials at the hand of intelligence officials after he was elected or right before he was elected. I think the more important question, Sean, is why why they didn't want Trump and his people in there? And I believe the evidence is showing and sources I have indicate it's because they didn't want that wild card, meaning don Trump and his team looking at exposing and examining some things that bad actors in the intel community have been doing the past fifteen twenty years plus, and a whole system that they've established that has been doing things that are at the very least questionable and perhaps possibly illegal. And they were desperate once he was elected to make sure that he and his people were marginalized or somehow discredited so that they could not look at um the things that in some of the talents the community have been doing. I don't think they ever thought Trump would win, which is why they stuck their necks out here. And I think that they're look, here's the bottom line. I would think that all of the people in the news media in this country would look at this as the biggest story potentially that they'll ever have in their entire life. You know, if one presidential candidate rigs the primary and then you got an FBI director coordinating with other high ranking FBI officials and the Attorney General is in on it, and if we know crimes were committed, we know felonies were committed mishandling a classified information that in and of itself as a crime a felony. Destroying such classified, special access, top secret information, that's a crime. Obstructing justice? Well, that might be not turning over thirty three thousand subpoenaed emails, uh and then using acid wash or bleach bit to destroy all the evidence, and then using hammers to destroy mobile devices. That sounds like obstruction of justice in any world I would live in. You know, you think you'd want to cover that. Or so the fixes in on the primary, the fixes in so she can continue to run against Trump because they think she's the better choice, they think she's gonna win. And then of course she pays for a phony dossier, denies it for an entire year. Only recently we found out that yeah, the Clintons paid for it because Fusion GPS wouldn't give it up, and they pay for the whole thing. And then we find out that is the basis of a FISA warrant to spy on an opposition party candidate in a presidential election year, and then an incoming president of president elected his entire team. Now I don't I don't know if there's ever been corruption on this level in our lifetime, to be honest, and if you want to compare it to Watergate, the so called standard, you know, Watergate is like stealing a candy bar out of a candy store. Compared to this, I would agree that the allegations that have put forth and the things sources have told me, including some who have worked under both Democrat and Republican administration, makes Watergate pale in comparison. I think a lot of people today don't even really know what Watergate was about. We refer to that as a phrase as if everybody knows it sounds like the worst thing ever. But in terms of what we're talking about today, if big actors in the Intel community have been compromised for years in ways that we don't know about, this impact. Sean, I think you're getting at this not just what happened during campaign two thousand sixteen, but virtually every big case that was handled by our intel community. I think would have to be re examined in a new light if it turns out that corruption has proven at high levels in our intel You have been any doubt, Let's go through it slowly. Do you have any doubt that Donno Brazil is wrong, that the that in fact, that the primary of Hillary with Bernie Sanders was rigged. I don't have any doubt. Well, I guess it depends on what you mean by rigg but it's pretty clear from people you know inside the Democrat Party that, uh, they certainly slanted everything they could to favor Okay, isn't that? Isn't that rigging? I don't know. You know, you can say I wouldn't argue with you. Do you have any disagreement that that what James Comey and Peter Struck did, knowing especially how Peter Struck in Lisa pages is mistress girlfriend over the FBI, what they think and their talk about insurance policies and and don't you think that they were exonerating Hillary by writing that exoneration draft way before, months before they ever interviewed the key principles and that investigation. That's how normal is Yeah? No, I think that that is highly highly suspect when you put that, especially being but aren't you being kind? Have you ever heard of an honoration before investigation before? I haven't. I haven't, but I'm trying to be not kind so much as I've never into other And yes, careful and judicials. I got that stuff. Yes, I wouldn't argue with some of your characterizations, but I don't know that this isn't done all the time. I don't know that, Sean, they haven't done that improperly with other investigations. But we okay, But that doesn't take away that this is not normal procedure, you know, taking it out of the the FBI field agent's hands and putting it in a special category. Well, that only happens, I guess to special people. I doubt it would happen for Cheryl atkinsoner, Sean Hannity. I believe that there is a lot of improper stuff going on, including some of what you've discussed, things involving my own federal case against the intelligence agencies that actors involved in that, and many other cases besides just campaign two thousands sixteen, but yes, including campaign two and isn't it. Do you Have you seen any evidence of all at all of Trump Russia collusion in the twenties sixteen election? Any at all? No? I mean not only have I not, but I've compiled in the past and continue to update it virtually every if not every Democrat and Republican who has looked at the best evidence there is that we don't even know about. Classified evidence has said the same, So I think that has that narrative has certainly dissolved. But you have to let me let me say, I think that narrative was built in part as the shiny ball to look at because those bad actors inside the Intel Agency were fearful that the Trump administration would come in and find what they had done, so they had to marginalize and controversialize them and try to undercut them before they could speak out. And I'd argue, I'd argue they did it fairly successfully. And then you know, we didn't know for a long time who paid for the fusion GPS Stasier. They can argue all they want, well, the initial payments came from the Washington Free Beacon, but that was predated anything involving Christopher Steele, who used questionable Russians horses, and Glenn Simpson admitting he never even tried to verify what was in the dossier, and then his admission under you know, when he was questioned by the House Intel Committee, has admissioned that he was coordinating, you know, dropping this information to the news media with the Clinton campaign. Now to me, that's Isn't that bought and paid for Russian lies and propaganda? It could be. And let me take you back to the picture. Can I take it. Can I say that they were trying to use that to rig an election? I think you can say that. I think it's I think the evidence I would say that that is an allegation that appears to be to have merit, and you know, deserves sorting through, and you're free to conclude that that that indeed happens. Is that a logical conclusion? Is it sound reasonable to you? I think I think you're you're using your common sense. I absolutely do. By the way, don't let me just don't you wish you weren't a journalist for a minute and you could just let it rip like this, Well, I do, but I think that's your job. You know, I'm happy doing what I do. And I would just say, let me add to your theory season your common sense mind when you're discussing these things by saying, before Trump was even running for president, I had been told by a very very well placed, intelligent source in a very careful way. And this is someone who worked under President Obama. By the way, that the intel community, some bad actors have been manufacturing allegedly bad or false information and presenting it to the face a court to get things like this done. This is before it allegedly happened to Trump. So it makes sense that when when that was uncovered and the fight of court, since this stuff was never going to go to criminal court and no one would ever know that it was bad evidence, unlike in a normal case, because this was just to gather intel on somebody or political information or black and it was first denied by the FISA court and the pretext was under looking into Carter page, but it was really the Trump campaign. Al right, stay right there, Cheryl Atkinson, she is the host of Sinclair's Full Measure. We'll get more of her thoughts on this right as we continue. Cheryl Atkinson is with us, she hosts Sinclair's Full Measure, and we appreciate you taking the time to be with us. I want to go through one other thing here, and this is what Sarah Carter is reporting today. After Peter Struck sends Lisa Paige the text on March nineteen saying, oh, there's no there there and with his position, he would know considering that Russia was a specialty. Uh. And then he's talking about joining the Special Counsel of Robert Muller. He sends another text right after it, uh, an investigation that leads to impeachment. Maybe I should have So he's saying, there's no there there, but it may lead to impeachment. And you add that to all the other texts that he sent that are anti Trump, and you begin to get a different picture, right, I think. So, I think that on its space appears wholly inappropriate. And you know, the idea that this independent investigation really was supposed to go above and beyond to make sure that despite how people feel personally, and that's supposed to be okay as long as they don't act on it. But in this special independent investigation, I think they needed to be very very careful about who they invited on and who they recruited. Maybe they weren't um nearly as careful as they should have been, or it's kind of hard for me to believe they didn't know about the feeling of some of these people they invited on that on that team at the time. Okay, so you're more of a journalist than I am, and you know where I'm coming from in this, and I think I'm right over the target, and I think that I have we pretty much appealed the onion away, and I feel very competent in the things that I'm saying about a rigg primary or rigged investigation into Hillary, an attempt at rigging a general election, and using you know, phony propaganda from Russia to UH to start spying on a president presidential candidate, the president elect. You think I'm wrong in any way? Any evidence in your mind that I'm wrong. I don't see any evidence that you're wrong about the conclusions you're forming. And it may be a bit early, you know, we don't have all the firm proof and interviews and so on to say that with authority, but I certainly don't think you're barking up the wrong tree. All right, We really appreciate it, Cheryl Atkins, And don't forget you can get a brand new book, The Smere how to how shady political operatives fake news controls what you see, what you think, and how you vote really topical at this point. Thank you so much, Sheryl Lekins, and all the best one shown. We're gonna hit the phone straight up when we get back. What this is all about is further evidence of corruption more than bias, but corruption at the highest levels of the FBI and that secret society we have. We have an informant that's talking about a group that we're holding secret meetings off site. There's there's so much smoke here, there's so much special let's let's stop. There a secret society that a secret meetings offside of the Justice Department correction and you have an informant saying that, yes, has anything more about that, No, we have to dig into it. That's that's this is not a distraction again, this is this is biased potentially corruption at the highest levels of the FBI that is now investigating. And now this has been by the way, Robert Mueller used to run the FBI. Uh, he is in no position to do an investigation over this kind of misconduct. So I think at this point in time, we probably should be looking at a special council to undertake this investigation. But Congress is gonna have to continue to dig I have heard from somebody has talked to our committee that there is a group of individuals in the FBI there was holding they were holding secret off site meetings and again a strack and Page calling it a certain term. I'm just saying off site meetings important stuff here. How many agents were involved in these alleged meetings. I'm not going to start pointing fingers from that standpoint. Again, I'm just connecting the dots. Bill I've been My committee has jurisdiction or federal records. We have been investigating the Clinton email scandal since two thousand and fifteen. We pretty well dropped it after the election, pretty much at the direction of President Trump. He said, you know, we don't prosecute people that we beat in elections. But then once the Office Inspector General began its inspection and we found out about these texts, these texts pretty well laid in my app as well, and they they really do raise very serious concerns about what is happening to the FBI. All right, that was earlier. That was Ron Johnson being on Fox News talking about things that we've been talking about, and that is a secret society meeting off campus from the FBI. As we continue our coverage of deep state Gate, if you will, and I don't know what else to really call this, the subversion or the sabotage of a presidential election, and joining us now is Byron York and he writes for the Washington Examiner. Has been doing really good work on this, and also doing very good work on the insanity of the anti Trump woman out there. How are you, I shan doing well? Thank you? All right, let's talk about this offsite FBI officials secret Society and what do you make out of that? Well, I don't know what to make out of it. I mean, the secret Society is a reference in the texts, and I will say from talking to people who have been going through these texts very carefully, it's it's hard to pull things together because there there's a lot of gossip. They're talking about whatever happened that day, and it's sometimes difficult to see exactly what they're talking about. As far as what the Senator Johnson said about his informant who said there's this group that met off site, I mean, that's extremely intriguing, and but we know no more than that. On the other hand, I was going to bring something up. Um. Senator Grassley, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, just delivered a speech on the floor of the Senate and there's a couple of things going on with him. Uh. First of all, his committee is looking through the texts like everybody else. Uh. And the second thing, remember, he and Senator Graham uh sent that criminal referral to the Justice Department about Christopher Steele, the British former spy who was the author of the dossier. And they sent the letter and it got a lot of coverage, But they had an underlying memo that explained why they were doing it, and they felt that was very important for that ultimately to get out and some of its classified. So they have gone to the FBI and said, look, we want to release this memo because we think it's very important that the public understand what was going on between the FBI and Christopher Steel about this docier. Well, amazingly enough, the FBI has been dragging its feet, and on the Senate floor not too long ago, the Senator came out and accused the FBI of playing a quote bureaucratic game of hide the ball. Uh. He is clearly losing his patients with them. And I think this is something we're seeing across this whole investigation, which is this this wall of classified information that uh that investigators and Congress are trying to get through. Senator Grassley also said it's time to see the Devin noonez memo, and not just the memo, but the underlying intelligence as well. So I think we're seeing a across the idea of the dossier, or of the texts, or the criminal referral or what else, whatever else we're talking about. I think we're seeing a growing impatience on Capitol Hill, mostly among Republicans, for for this classified box that all have been all of them have been kind of trapped in. And I think in the next few weeks they really want to get a lot of information out to the American public. Well, I think we're gonna get it. I mean, I'm told any day now we're going to get a copy of that memo, and probably when they get back next week. Now, I would assume they're gonna wait till after the State of the Union on on Tuesday. Um, you know I've been explaining it this way, and you tell me anywhere you think that I'm wrong. Is Donna Brazil had to call Bernie Sanders and say that, yeah, the primary election was rigged. We have an exoneration being written by anti Trump pro Hillary FBI agent Peter Struck and James Comey. They begin the exoneration letter months before they interviewed the principles, including Hillary Clinton herself. Now we have not only the talk of an insurance policy, but Loretta Lynch apparently, you know, deserves a profile encourage because Loretta Lynch now knew that there was no way they would ever and died. Hillary Clinton Again, that was July one before they interviewed her over the fourth of July weekend. Comey then exonerates her. So I would argue that fix was in there in terms of, you know, she never was going to be no matter where the evidence LEDs, she was never gonna be indicted, so they could keep her in the race. And then of course she pays for between her money is funneled through her campaign through one lawyer, the d n C that Donna Brazil says she's controlling. That money is funneled through the same lawyer. They pay for a phony, salacious, unproven Russian dossier mostly proven false at this point, and they try to basically put the fix in on the general election, and then that uncorroborated information is used to get a FISA warrant to spy on an opposition party candidate in the presidential year and then an incoming president elected. Team Am I missing anything here? Am I wrong on anything? You're you pretty much got it. And you know, one of one of the things that's that's a challenge here is I have really tried to focus on the Trump affair, the Trump Russia affair, but listening to you, and it's absolutely correct. The problem in doing that is that the Hillary Clinton investigation just flows into the Trump investigation at the FBI, and the people who are doing it are the same people. So when you look at these um texts between Strock and Page, they're talking about the Hillary Clinton investigation all the time around, especially in that critical time of the end of June at the beginning of July when they've already decided to exonerate her before not just she was interviewed, but a number of the main people in the case were interviewed. So that's going on. And did you ever hear of an exoneration letter being written months before the investigation really took place or took hold the answers? No, And I just don't see how anybody could, really, anybody in the general public could really And where are your colleagues in the media. I mean, I'm a talk show host and and I wear many hats. Sometimes I do investigative words, sometimes I do reporting. Sometimes I give my opinions, sometimes I moderate debates. So I do a lot of different things. But an opinion journalist would be or an advocacy journalists would fit my role. But where are the objective journalists in this country? Well that's a good question. What can I see? What can I say? I think, Um, what you're seeing now is especially after that all the talk about the House Intel Committee memo. Uh Finally, some people say the Washington Post and the New York Times are paying attention to it if only to want to knock it down. But I think attention to it is good because I think it should be released and the underlying intelligence should be released. Uh. As you know, there's this Inspector General investigation at the Justice Department and MPI one point two million documents sent over. We haven't heard a word about them yet, specifically about the handling of the Hillary Clinton investigation, because there's things in that Hillary Clinton investigation for everybody to be unhappy about, and the way it does sort of just morph into the into the Trump investigation with within within days of her being exonerated. Christopher Steel has written his the first installment of his his dossier. Um, So, what can I say the the the the Republican investigators. You're seeing in the House Intelligence Committee, the Senate Judiciary Committee, don't forget the Senate Intelligence Committee as well. I mean, it's taken a long time, but I do think in the next few weeks we're gonna start seeing more and more findings coming out. Well, this is what my sources are telling me. At number one, we're going to get the memo probably next week, number too, then we'll get the corroboration of the memo behind that. Number three that there's a lot more still to come even after that. Now, what's fascinating to me is, well, that would tell me that Lisa Page, Peter Struck, that would tell me that Andrew McCabe, James Comey all need to be investigated. And I'd like to know why Rod Rosenstein was in Paul Ryan's office begging that the d o J not have to turn over the information that led to the memo just hours before the deadline hit. Yeah, what you're gonna see is with the release of this stuff and I and I have to tell you, I have not seen this classified memo. Nobody's seen it. Nobody has seen I know nobody on the outne side has seen it. But I think you're going to see increased pressure on the political leadership of the of these departments after people actually know more stuff. And when you see it and it's been revealed, then you're gonna say, well, wait a minute, why were they trying to keep this secret the whole time? We needed to know this? So um, we'll see more and more right as we continue with byron Yorke. He's a writer for the Washington Examiner. One of the things Sarah Carter has put out today. Now we know after Struck sends Paige the text on on March nineteen for guarding well, there's no there there where he talks about Mueller's Special Council. We also know what he said about an insurance policy, and we also know that he suggested that, in fact, he and Paige suggested that Loretta Lynch knew there was nothing that was ever gonna happen even before they interviewed Hillary. And but when he talks about right after that Mueller's Special counsel. He sends another text right after saying an investigation that leads to an impeachment question mark. In other words, he says, there's no they're there, then an investigation that leads to impeachment question mark? Maybe I should doesn't That doesn't that tell us that thought that in his mind, he thought there was nothing thing that went wrong, nothing there, and he would know based on his position, and that the only reason he would have involved himself in any ways because he might be able to upend a duly elected president because it would be this big, historic investigation. But I think I think the note there there is really really important because some people may have missed since this was there at the beginning of the Mueller investigation, they think, well, this is the beginning of the investigation. No, Struck had been involved in the Trump Russia investigation from the very beginning, and we know the FBI started that counterintelligence investigation in July of twenty sixteen. Struck is involved in it from the very beginning. So when in May of twenty seventeen he says it just looks like there's no there there, he's been investigating it for ten or eleven months. So this is not just his sort of prospective look saying maybe there's nothing there. He's actually been deeply involved in it. He he's the one who went to UH to interview Michael Flynn at the White House. He was deeply involved in all of this. So for him to say in May looks like there's no there there that is a very telling comment about the state. And that's why I'm calling it deep state Gate, state sponsored sabotage, because they wanted to sabotage at every level and prevent a They're even willing to use phony Russian paid for propaganda to get a warrant to to literally go after an opposition party candidate and then a president elect because they want to overturn an election. They wanted to first impact the election and overturn the election. And in the process they're using the powerful tools of intelligence that we give the intelligence community, and they're abusing the fiser warrants and the fiser courts in the process as well. Yeah, the biggest picture theme of this is exactly that, which is that use of the misuse of you of the intelligence agencies whom we were exactly right. We give these enormous powers to um two that meddled into in our political process. And and don't forget how some of this stuff got started after the election, Beginning on November nine, UM, there was this wire tap that Michael Flynn was heard on talking to the Russian ambassador, which was, by the way, a perfectly normal thing for an incoming national security advisor to do. Uh. And the Justice Department appears to be concerned about the Logan Act, which is as we all know, completely never used statute. That appeared to be just a pretense to start an investigation, but it was the pretense to go over there to the White House. Agents strunk by the way, go over to the White House and and and interview Michael Flynn, and basically his his guilty plea on one count of lyne to the FBI comes from that that interview. So yeah, look what you're saying is they have all these very powerful tools. They knew everything Mike. They knew everything Michael Flynn had said because he was illegally surveiled, not minimized, unmasked, and then raw intelligence. So it was a perjury trap from the get go. Either he misremembered or he lied, but it doesn't matter. They shouldn't have known ahead of time. Thank you Byron York. We appreciate it. Eight one Sean, I promise we're gonna get too calls. Next half hour Hannity Tonight, Deep state Gate, state sponsored sabotage, well of all the latest details and more. Nine Eastern Musty TV on the Fox News Channel. You look at what Andrew McCabe has done in serving this country. Uh. He was in the New York Filled Office and the SWAT team. He investigated and had a key role investigating counter terrorism. After September eleven, he held management positions in the counter Terrorism Division and the FI National Security Branch. He was he was the first director of the High Value Detaining Interrogation Group to get information from Al Qaeda to try to stop the next attack. And he played a key role in investigating the Boston marathon bombing and bringing bringing those terrorists to justice. Look at this man's face. This man dedicated his life to you and to your family, keeping you safe from terror attacks in New York City, in Washington, d C. Across the country, serving with the Federal Bureau and of of Investigation. And because Donald Trump has completely blown through every single barrier, every single constitutional protection. Now some are attacking this American hero because it just fits their political their political message of the day and Willie Geist. When you have Fox News declaring war and their words on the FBI and the Justice Department, the deep state there, when you have people talking about secret societies inside of the FBI, that's that is out of what urti Wan's playbook, with Urtiwan's play book that he used in Turkey to undermine that democracy and to go after political rivals in his government, and they're doing it here in America. You know, it's it's pretty, it doesn't matter. And I'm gonna tell you what this is all about. More than it's like their scorn lovers. Well, let's hear me out here. There will be f F friends with the president and they've had a falling out and they can't handle the breakup and they're now unhinged, and it's like imag really, he's got Alzheimer's early on set Alzheimer's. I can't believe that the doctor said he go to thirty out of thirty. Um, you know, Joe, nobody is slamming the entire FBI. How many times have we made the distinction on this program about rank and file FBI people, FBION law enforcement people. And by the way, isn't his network the network that you know didn't go after and has been generally supportive of the Black Lives Matter pigging a blanket, pigs and a blanket for I am like Bacon, what do we want dead cops? Uh? When do we want them now? And Obama invited some of those people from Black Lives Matter to the White House, Hillary sought their endorsement. None of that bothers Joe, well we should call him Dr Liberal Joe and doctor Amika Razinski. So now their doctors and they're they're playing them on TV. It's not rank and file intelligence people. We need intelligence, the most powerful tools of intelligence to go after evil in our time, and those that do that job we owe a debt of gratitude too. And the same with that FBI. No one has supported I think in TV and radio on a national level, the law enforcement and our troops more than me. Absolutely, And I'm the one that's always saying give them the benefit of the doubt, and I'm the one that you know is out there every time saying they deserve that and more. But we have enough evidence now I mean, is is is Liberal Joe really gonna make the case that Peter Struck, who's involved in all of this with his mistress girlfriend. Is he really going to make the case that what they were saying to each other is appropriate, that that's not a conflict of interest? Is he not at all concerned when they talk about an insurance policy? Is he not at all concerned that they're writing exoneration letters before invest negations? Is he not at all concerned that Donna Brazil says that the primary was rigged? Is he not at all concerned that Comey and Struck and and Loretta Lynch knew ahead of time because he's talking about the d o J. These are the highest ranking members of the d o J. That they all knew that they were never gonna indict Hillary Clinton ahead of time. We know crimes were committed. I know we may like Hillary Clinton, but that shouldn't you know cloud his judgment? Is that really the country we want where just a few people get to decide, you know what, We really want her to win, So we're gonna allow her to stay in the race, because if we followed the rule of law, like we would for every other American, she would have been indicted. Yeah, in the middle of a presidential election. Yeah, it would have been chaotic. Yes, it would have been difficult for the Democratic Party, but it would have been the right thing to do, especially when the evidence was so overwhelming and so controvertible on what Hillary did with the email server. Do you believe in just do you believe in equal justice under the law? And then you've got this whole issue of Okay, we really appreciate our intelligence officials and what they do, but if you weaponize it and you turn it against the American people as it happened, I mean, think about this, where now turning the powerful tools of intelligence using Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for phony Russian narrative that she did the dossier to try and influence the American people with phony lies, Russian lies in an election, and then we're trying to use it and successfully use it to get a FISA warrant against your opponent and then a president elect, and then you're trying to use those powerful tools of intelligence to sabotage and incoming president. I would think that that would bother You know, this to me isn't even a left right issue. This is what is right issue and what is right here is you cannot weaponize the tools of intelligence. You can't have a few people and the upper echelons of power deciding that they think it's too important not to apply the rule of law. You know, you can't have elections of any kind in America rigged. And the fact that they're every Bernie supporter is an up and arms over that is mind numbing to me. But this is something that's civil Libertarians and liberals and conservatives, Republicans, Democrats, I would think I would all agree on. But the problem is, you know people like Joe and Mika Liberal Joe, doctor Liberal Joe and Dr Mika Brazynski, you know that actually think that they can adequately, you know, determine the medical condition of people that they don't haven't well they don't have a medical degree. I mean, it's just so idiotic on the surface, and they've gone so over the top. I mean, it's the best bit I've ever seen is them on Saturday Night Live. The funniest thing I've ever seen. So we have deep state Gate and we have state sponsored sabotage. Not attacking the intelligence community, I'm attacking those that abuse the way papons of intelligence not attacking the FBI, am attacking those in the FBI that are not applying the law as they properly should. I've never heard of exhonerations before investigations. The problem is for these guys, they've all bought into a narrative that has turned out to be false for a year. That's why they're all clinging to Mother wants to investigate and talk to Trump. That's not even new news, but they're acting as though it is because they know that everything else around them, their whole narrative and their whole belief system for a year and all the lies they told their audience for a year is now caving in upon them. And the worst thing for them is their egos will not allow them to admit that they're wrong. And people like oh, Sean Hannity and Fox News was right, they can't handle that part. I'm fine with it. I just I don't give a flying rip what these people do. And I don't think you could ever trust them. I don't think anybody should ever trust them. It's so freaking corrupt. And I'll tell you what that is all. You know, what a lot of this is is rooted in a desire to be liked, a desire to be part of the club, a desire to be invited to the parties, the soires that these these people in the media have all the time, a desire to be respected by them, you know, the people I would want to hang out the least within life of those people or the people that go to the White House correspondence there. I'm so proud of the fact my twenty third year at Fox, I've never been a one and as Fox tried to make me go a couple of years and I got sick the day before. It's unbelievable and I and I've frustrated. I can tell you right now, I've frustrated the hell out of roder Ells because he goes, You're going this year. That's it. I'm going, You're going. You're stuck. I don't want to hear it. And I called I didn't call him. I called the guy under Nathan and I said, you gotta tell the boss. I'm really feeling bad to or Or started talking like Linda and I didn't get it easy there, Champ. She's not here to defend herself. Okay, even if she was, we couldn't hear her. It doesn't matter. She has no voice at all. I'd her here we come. The sisterhood is back. Here we are all right, Let's get to our busy phones. Nate is in Phoenix, k f Y I. What's up, Nate? How are you sure to hear your voice? Man? Look, I'm just so um impressed with you and your band of small band of patriots. What you guys have been able to discover highlight illuminate for the American public. And my reasons for column was just so frustrated with the rank and file FBI, d O, j C, I A. You know, as an American onlooker, if you will, with all the evidence system presented by you and your team, if this were like a cartel or a or a mafia group's got to say that the FBI ran can file will be all over it and there'd be people perp blocked and put in jail. But that being said, Cheryl said something that struck a chord with me because my generation Watergate doesn't necessarily resonate strongly with us. Here's the thing. We've got to have checks and balances on the people that we give this enormous power and capability to Now, we give the most powerful weapons to our military, and we trust and believe that they'll always do the right thing and maybe get zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero point one percent of people that maybe don't do the right thing, but the rest of them do. Same with the intelligence community. I am a strong believer in this world of evil iss al Qaeda and UH and Radical Islam and all these other crazy groups that we've got to defend ourselves, and that includes Russia and Iran and China and any other North Korea, any other potential enemy nation. And we need it. But we can be using those weapons against the American people. We can't be allowing Russia, you know, influence our elections in anyway. The problem is that what they said about Trump wasn't true, but the person that did it was Hillary, and the media lost that whole story. Let's say hi to Raoul is in Fort Lauderdale. Raoul, how are you? Hey? I'm doing great, Sean, how you doing? I'm good? How are you? I'm doing great. I'm a fellow martial artist. I just haven't heard you say anything about martial arts time.

Okay, I'm not familiar with that particular art, but I am minds a mixed martia ahead. Is it a brand of ju jitsu or no, it's it's the one that you do with that. It's sort of like a dance at the same time, and there's a lot of gymnastics and kicks. It's uh, it's pretty popular. The national just like to get is this sort of you're doing the horse's mane and pushing the ball and a little bit of artistry involved in in the whole process to get your cheer up. No, completely opposite, all right, I will tell you what my mine is a very violent, eclectic blend of varying arts crab magaw, tempo, jiu jitsu and uh boxing and basic street fighting with a lot of training and blade in firearms as well.

I'm an immigrant, Um, I'm Latino. I'm also what you consider African America. I'm black, but I'm Latino. And uh, you know what, because of everything that you've done for the last couple of years now, uh you it's like I took the red pill, like in the Matrix your Morpheus man, because I woke up. I got educated through just listening to you every day when I drive my truck, and got to come home and answer all the questions to my wife and family. And it's just been a blessed we worked out of I appreciate it so much. And the fact that you have an open mind. Listen, I'm open. If anyone wants to say that I'm wrong on something, tell me and I will tell the audience I think I got this wrong, you know, putting this together it's been more difficult than I can explain to some people. They want answers immediately. But you know, in a story like this, you're you're literally it's a mystery and you're unpeeling the layers of the onion and we're getting, you know, a bite here, and a bite here, and a bite here. Now it's coming fast and furious. But in a million years would I think that that we've gotten to the point that it's gotten with you right now, because you have brought it all to the forefront. And nowhere do you hear this story anywhere else, anywhere else, And and and I'm shocked. Finally Congress is catching up. Finally the Republicans and Congress and catching up. And uh, listen, I appreciate it, Warrior, God bless you. I appreciate you. And uh, you know, I send all the strength and honor your way. That's gonna wrap things up with today.
