Well, Peter Schweitzer had the best-selling uh book called Clinton Cash.
He's now turning it into a documentary.
He debuted it at the Cannes Film Festival, and it's going to be coming out, I guess, before the Democratic National Convention, though I guess the week before is when he plans to release it, maybe two weeks before.
He's going to check in with us today.
We have more evidence.
This president stubbornly refuses to listen to his national security advisers that ISIS and other radical groups will infiltrate the refugee population, insisting on taking thousands and thousands more.
Then we also have incidents where diseases are being brought into this country and you know issues like measles and TB, and I don't know if you've been reading about this flesh-eating disease that were brought in by some Syrian migrants to some of the camps, and no matter what evidence we have, no matter how many intelligent people say that ISIS and others will infiltrate that population, he doesn't care.
There's also a group out there called Latinas for Trump.
They'll join us today, Governor Mike Huckabee today.
I I don't know what I'm angrier about.
I don't know if I'm angrier about this horrible jobs report and the lying and manipulation.
The government just lies to you.
They lie repeatedly.
Oh, the unemployment rate has gone down to four point seven percent, the lowest level in in all these years since 2007.
I'll debunk that for you in the course of the program today.
Let me start by saying something else that needs to be said here.
Um towards the end of Hannity last night, we we started the program.
We covered a little bit of Donald Trump speaking in San Jose.
Then I had a fight with Geraldo Rivera on the program over the issue of immigration and Donald Trump, I think rightfully calling out the fact that there is a conflict of interest.
The judge in the Trump University case.
Remember, nobody in the media covers the laureate college case where Bill Clinton got paid sixteen some odd million dollars, and many students from many poor countries feel like they were defrauded and that fraud has been committed against them.
There's not one word about it in the media.
Anyway, the judge in this particular case, uh, we found out as a member of the La Rasa, the race lawyers group.
Remember La Rasa?
Now it's separate from the group that we hear about often it, you know, the advocacy group, but the word La Rasa means the race.
So that's an indication that this guy might have radical views.
Then we know that it came to light that the law firm, Robins Geller, appointed by the judge, Curiel in this case, to represent a plaintiff in the Trump University class action lawsuit.
Well, that law firm appointed by the judge.
Well, they have a connection to Hillary Clinton in a couple of ways.
One, they gave a twenty seven hundred dollar campaign contribution, at least the chairman, Darren Robbins did, and it seems that Robins Geller paid the Clintons nearly a half a million dollars in less than a year in giving them paid speeches.
Now, I don't think I'd want to judge with those type of connections that that law firm presiding over a case that I'm involved in.
And if that's not a a strong case for recusal, I don't know what is.
Anyway, so we're doing the show last night.
We start out a little bit with the Trump speech that he's giving.
Then we could talk about the speech, and anyway, by the end of the program, there had been a number of protesters, like in many other instances that showed up in San Jose.
Now, if those who hate Donald Trump uh for whatever reason want to help elect him as president, and the worst of them, the most violent of them, the most intolerant of Them, I think are doing a pretty good job convincing America if it's not bad enough that you've got a socialist that is running neck and neck with another socialist on top of the bad economic news because we've lived under seven years now in our eighth year of socialism under Obama.
I don't know what will.
So you have an ugly mob scene that unfolds last night in San Jose, and you have a few hundred protesters literally fighting and punching and throwing eggs at again, and we had gone through this earlier this week with Trump supporters, and this happened right outside of where the rally took place last night.
And towards the end of the program, we go to our reporter who's there covering it for the Fox News channel, Jonathan Hunt, and he starts interviewing him.
I start feeding him a bunch of questions of what to ask these people.
They don't know they don't they don't have a clue of what it is that they're talking about.
They know nothing.
And right on camera, we saw a punch being thrown by one of these people, and violence erupted.
The police even had to retreat at some point last night.
The San Jose Police Department made a number of arrests after this rally, according to an officer.
There was one officer in this case that was assaulted by these by these violent leftists.
You know, protesters followed the Trump supporters literally to their cars.
Now, these are women and children and people that are peacefully assembling and choosing to listen to a presidential candidate in an election year in the hopes of making a decision of who they want to vote for.
But there are people on the left that apparently don't believe in that freedom for people that don't agree with their candidate that don't support their socialist agenda.
Anyway, so there was a young guy that was wearing a build the wall t-shirt.
He was assaulted by several young men.
Now, let me read a report from KCBS in San Francisco and said for several minutes there was no police presence.
Protesters thumped Trump supporters' cars in the parking garage as they just tried to leave.
Outside again, there was another assault and another.
Street fights broke out on uh one of the main avenues there, Almaden Avenue.
Uh, they talk about Andrew Acevedo of Redwood City, said he was assaulted several times while getting stuck inside the anti-Trump protest rally.
As police tried to restore order, protesters forced a police pickup to retreat.
Police lines formed again, but the crowds only grew.
Another young man was chased down like prey.
He ran until finding some police officers who stopped the attackers.
Some protesters grabbed Trump hats, tried to burn them.
Others were banging on the cars of Trump supporters trying to leave the rally.
The Daily Mail had a report about all of this.
Quote, a dozen or more were punched or knocked to the ground by protesters during the melee As anti-Trump demonstrators grabbed the candidates' signature hats from the heads of the supporters in order to set them on fire.
By the way, we had a scene last night too, they were setting the American flag on fire.
And like previous protests that we have seen around the country, there were plenty of Mexican flags being waved by the anti-Trump supporters.
And at one point, a mostly male mob that was five to six people deep.
They even surrounded a female Trump supporter and began to pelt this woman, this defenseless woman, in the face with eggs and watermelon.
Now that woman who was wearing a Trump jersey, responded by smiling, pointing right back at the group as they screamed and waved their Mexican flags before eventually making her escape thanks to a nearby door.
Many of the protesters, like in, as I said, past protests, they're carrying Mexican flags during the demonstration.
That was eventually defused once local police made the decision to move in and make some arrests a little late from my perspective.
A few of the demonstrators also burned the American flag at the outside the convention center.
We had that on tape last night.
Now, this is the really strange point.
The mayor of San Jose, a Democrat, Sam Liccardo, aimed his anger not at the violent protesters.
Now, you would think if you're the mayor of a city that you would want people to be able to peacefully assemble and listen to a presidential candidate from a major political party, but apparently not in liberal San Jose, California.
Because he said he's not mad at the protesters.
He's not mad at the people punching.
He's not mad at the flag, the American flag burners.
He's mad at Donald Trump, who did nothing.
There was one moment during the coverage that we had last night where there was somebody disrupting and holding up a Bernie Sanders something or other.
And he said, no, let her stay.
It's okay.
It's not a problem.
They can stay.
You know, the safest place to be Trump repeated, which he's done at other rallies is at a Trump rally.
So the mayor said at some point Donald Trump needs to take responsibility for the irresponsible behavior of his campaign.
So Donald Trump, now let's look, let's just go over his opinion on illegal immigration.
His opinion is to uphold the law of the land.
His opinion is that people that broke the law, disrespected the law, and American sovereignty should pay the price for breaking the law.
That's all it is.
Now I've been down to the border, I've been to drug warehouses, I've seen the tunnels, I've been on horseback, helicopter, boats, all terrain vehicle, I've seen gang members arrested.
Drug warehouse really was frightening how many drugs they've confiscated over the years.
I sat through an intelligence briefing with Governor Rick Perry of Texas at the time, and I heard about 645,000 crimes were committed against Texans alone in a seven year period.
And some of them included murder and rape and all sorts of crimes in between.
And yet, you know, nobody ever talks about the impact of illegal immigration.
California is one of the states that has paid a huge price.
You now have a 13.5% state income tax, thanks to Governor Moonbeam, who has no problem taking your money.
I mean, you're making about, you know, maybe 40 cents of every dollar you make out in California by the time you pay your state taxes, your federal taxes, your social security taxes, your property taxes, etc.
And this mayor blames Donald Trump, not the people that were violent against those that attended the rally.
Now, I'm going to tell you something.
You know, there was a writer that actually, you know, was downright, it said it was downright irresponsible of Donald Trump to even set foot in California's third largest city.
Oh, so we can't go to if you're a conservative, you're not allowed to go to certain parts of the country.
Now, this kind of thuggery, and that that is what this is attacking women and children and people peacefully assembling and listening to a presidential candidate.
This kind of mob violence, this kind of effort to physically punish fellow citizens, and maybe in the case, maybe they're not fellow citizens, because maybe some of those people holding the Mexican flag, maybe they are Mexican citizens and not American citizens.
But this, you know, people literally trying to support a candidate and support a cause, but if you don't agree with them, these thugs, this mob violence now rears its ugly head again.
And frankly, unamerican and indecent and unconscionable.
Especially what happened to that woman and other people and other family members.
And it's no accident that those who perpetrated this mob violence are from the left.
Noah Rothman used to work for Medite had a pretty good column on this.
He said, These fits of violence did not arise in a vacuum.
These are the rewards of a political culture that has been nursed into existence by a liberal left that glorifies fanaticism.
And he goes on to say the liberal political culture on American college campuses sees no virtue in forbearance or tolerance towards dissenting views, real dissent, not the shy diffidence of a powerless minority.
American college campuses are today plagued by a cast of insecure Locusts who are simultaneously fragile as porcelain and uncompromisingly confrontational.
The same cast of characters writes a love letter to ourselves, creates ideologically, you know, safe spaces where intellectual stimulation is thought tantamount to trauma.
And he goes on from there to go on.
It's exactly right.
This is a group that invites dangerously despotic concepts like the right to be believed for the alleged victims of violent crimes like rape while concurrently conveying upon speech that they don't like the power of physical violence.
That's the hypocrisy of the left.
That's how they, you know, it goes on and on.
Conservatives have long protested that the left's desire to call speech violence and violent speech will have terrible consequences, and they're now upon us, left unchecked by responsible actors.
These sentiments tear societies apart.
This is how republics die.
And he's exactly right.
This is an effort by the left to not only shut down, but to beat up their political opponents.
It is what people with totalitarian mindsets do.
And this dopey mayor in San Jose, a Hillary Clinton supporter, is not only remaining silent, but now is inciting more of it by blaming the victims.
And irresponsibly blaming Trump for the violence of an anti-Trump mob.
This is truly Orwellian.

Where is the condemnation of Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders over the violence that took place by their supporters in San Jose last night?
John Podesta writing violence against supporters of any candidate is no place in this election.
Oh, that really is going out on a limb there.
Let me tell you what I think's happened.
There is evidence now, and this what happened last night is evidence of a pretty sick political culture.
And by the way, we've just now are in the eighth year of one of the most divisive presidents in American history.
It's an and it's uh a political culture that literally is breaking this country apart in many important respects.
And I'm wondering if this is a foreshadowing of more events over the summer, because it's beginning to feel a lot like America in the late 1960s and during the Vietnam War and during the civil rights era, where there were cities literally being burned and campuses being taken over and violence in the streets and at political conventions like the 68 Convention, Democratic Convention in Chicago.
So whatever you think of Donald Trump, this kind of mob violence aimed at his supporters, men, women, and children, is not only illegal, but it's wrong and it shouldn't be tolerated, and the silence is deafening from the left.
And one other thing.
During the late 60s, when it felt like the wheels were coming off America and society, it was the law in order candidate at the time, Richard Nixon, Who won the election?
And there was a sense in the country that things were spiraling out of control, that the mob was in control, that good people had to live in fear, that figures of authority had lost control, and Americans were looking for someone to restore order in American life.
Now, one way that Donald Trump has a path to the presidency, you know, with mobs burning American flags and waving Mexican flags while physically assaulting Americans who simply want to attend a peaceful rally of a top presidential candidate.
It's insane.
I don't know if this is going to be in an inflection point or not in the campaign, but it's at a terrible indictment of where the left in America is today.
And they deserve to be punished.
And you got this dopey mayor out in San Jose that doesn't know his ass from his elbow and is blaming the exact wrong people.
It's an offense to everything this nation stands for what happened last night.
The rule of law, an ugly, revealing moment.
You know, this uh early day in June in San Jose.
The mayor blaming the violence on anti-Trump protesters.
It's ridiculous.
Um Democrats aren't denouncing any of this.
You got women pelted with eggs and garbage.
Well, because they like Donald Trump and they believe in the rule of law, burning the American flag, waving flags and people's Mexican flags and people's faces.
I don't see Democrats loudly and condemning this behavior.
I don't see it all.
They just go in the other direction.
All right, let me move on to some other things.
And this angers me almost as much, if not more, because I hate being lied to.
And I tell my kids, you know what?
I expect the kids are going to say and do dumb things, but when you lie to me about it, it just pisses me off more.
I hate when my government lies to me and does so all the time.
Now, there was a Bureau of Labor Statistic report this morning, but the U.S. economy added a whopping, well, really meager, 38,000 jobs last month, and the American and a number of Americans out of the labor force now has hit a record high.
94,708,000 of your fellow Americans are out of the labor force.
You'd have to go back to 197 to find a lower labor force participation rate.
So you got on top of that, hundreds of thousands of Americans dropping out of the labor force.
We have millions more in poverty, millions more on food stamps, you have a deficit and a debt that's spiraling out of control.
And just this week, the president goes out there and says, by every measure imaginable, the economy is growing great.
And then the way the media reports this, oh, the unemployment rate went down.
I'm like thinking, wow, the unemployment rate went down.
That's a good thing.
Well, sure the unemployment rate goes down.
If you don't count the chronically long-term unemployed under the way they use math in Washington, D.C. It's ridiculous.
You know, and I, you know, the president out there bragging on Wednesday, you know, touting, you know, how his policies turn the economy around.
And these days the community's unemployment rate hovers for 4%.
Employers are facing labor shortages, the president said.
By every what is what he actually said?
He said the U.S. economy was better off under his presidency by almost every measure.
And we can see the results, not just here in Elkhart, but across the nation.
By almost every economic measure.
America's better off than when I came here.
That's the beginning of my presence.
That's the truth.
That's true.
Over the past six years, our businesses have created more than 14 million new jobs.
That's the longest stretch of consecutive private sector job growth in our history.
We've seen the first sustained manufacturing growth since the 1990s.
We cut unemployment in half years before a lot of economists thought we could.
We cut the oil that we buy from foreign countries by more than half, double the clean energy that we produce.
For the first time ever, more than 90% of the country has health insurance.
All right, let me give you the facts because what the president just did was lie through his teeth.
He will be the first president to never reach 3% GDP growth in his entire presidency.
So he's sitting there and he's saying, by every measure under his presidency, almost every economic measure, we're better off.
That's just an out and outright lie.
You know, during his uh administration, median household income has fallen nearly $2,000 per family.
That's in an eight-year period.
It's supposed to go up.
I mean, it's pathetic how people are struggling, and it's it gets worse than that.
The number of Americans now living in poverty went up nearly 10 million under Obama's since his time in office.
10 million more Americans, 10 million more Americans now living in poverty.
The number of Americans on food stamps has increased by nearly 40%.
And it's now around 12.4 million people.
The labor force participation rate, a level we haven't seen since since nine the early 1970s.
We have lost 264,000 manufacturing jobs.
Why do you think Trump's message of better trade deals and going after companies like Carrier that think that they can take their jobs to Mexico and build their factory factories in Mexico and bring their products back here and uh and pay cheap labor costs in Mexico and screw the American worker and not have any punitive damages done to them in the sense that they have to pay a price for bringing those products back to America is insane.
We're literally allowing our own demise here.
So we've lost all of those manufacturing jobs.
The U.S. home ownership rate, well, that's dropped by nearly 4%.
That's millions of Americans that don't own homes now because they can't afford to get into the housing market.
The average family's health care premiums have increased by four nearly 40% nationwide, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation.
Ninety-three percent of counties in the United States have failed to fully recover under this president's watch.
By the time he leaves office, he will accumulate more debt than every other president before him combined.
This economic recovery has been the slowest since World War II.
In other words, this is the only president in history that won't deliver a single year of 3% economic growth.
That is just pathetic.
Even Bill Clinton understands this.
Oh, we've finally gotten to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us.
Because it is an awful legacy.
If you don't believe we can all grow together again, if you don't believe we're ever going to grow again, if you believe it's more important to relitigate the past, there might be many reasons that you don't want to support it.
But if you believe we can all rise together, if you believe we finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us in the seven years before that, when we were practicing trickle-down economics and no regulation in Washington, which is what caused the crash, then you should go.
Oh, Bill Clinton's actually right.
But Hillary Clinton can't say that because if Hillary actually ends up saying, Oh, that's trouble, that might piss off Obama and Obama might actually allow Loretta Lynch if there's a criminal referral and the email server scandal or the Clinton Foundation scandal or any of the numerous other scandals.
I mean, they're so corrupt.
I mean, do you realize that Bill Clinton, for all the talk about Trump University, was connected to this phony college, laureate college, and he got sixteen million dollars in four years, and there's more students from poor countries that feel they were taken advantage of, and the press that is so morally bankrupt and corrupt in this country doesn't report it?
And then the president attacks Fox and talk radio.
Oh, we're to blame.
We're telling people that aren't things aren't true.
He's the guy that lies through his teeth about the economy by every measure.
By every measure he has failed.
And this is a predictable failure.
By the way, this is not a joke.
Bernie Sanders, according to MediaEit's campaign, is now considering having him skydive into tonight's campaign rally in California.
Well, and they're reporting that news with a straight face.
Anyway, NorCal skydiving told the Bay Area newspaper, the press Democrat, that they were approached by a Sanders campaign staffer about the possibility of making an entrance from the sky.
The following day, a campaign staffer went skydiving as sort of a practice run, but there's still no word about whether they'll go through with it.
Then you have Sanders rabble rousers planning to make trouble for Hillary.
Politico's reporting this, that pro Bernie Sanders rabble rousers, that's the term they use at the politico, are planning to ruin Hillary's big moment at the Democratic convention in Dul in July.
Anyway, a group of these Bernie supporters from New York are headed to the DNC next month as handpicked at-large delegates, and they're threatening to make trouble for Hillary at the very moment she hopes to make history as the first female nominee of either party and unite the Democrats for the coming battle against Trump.
Now the disgruntled Sanders delegation heading to Philly with deep reservations about Clinton's brand of politics serves as a reminder of how contentious the four-day meeting could become.
Some twenty thousand protesters now are reportedly planning anti-Clinton protests outside the convention hall, but interviews with members of Sanders New York delegation reveal that supporters of the Vermont Senator are also considering bringing some of those protests inside the Wells Fargo Center itself, raising the prospect of an embarrassing spectacle on primetime television.
And Democrats are telling Bernie to withdraw if he doesn't win California, according to the Politico.
Well, OK, Democrats are warning.
Well, the problem is, is Bernie's up now by one point in a Los Angeles time poll that came out late last night.
And Congress is pressing Obama on whether he paid a billion dollar ransom to Iran.
You know, the only problem with all of this is I don't see that Congress has the backbone to follow through on any of this.
Anyway, Congress is questioning whether Obama officials made a billion dollar plus ransom payment to the Iranian government in exchange for the release of those U.S. sailors that they took hostage.
And apparently there's some evidence that those sailors were treated horribly that now the White House is trying to prevent you from learning and knowing about.
Unbelievable.
That's like this this is I'm just beginning to touch on the day's news here.
It's so outrageous and unbelievable.
Greetings from Washington.
I want to thank all of you for your work to root out corruption that weakens economic development, feeds black markets, and organized crime, and undermines the promise of democracy.
I believe in the oldest adage in American politics, which is follow the money.
A new report today claims that the Clinton Foundation gives about 10% of its money that it raises to actual charities.
Enormous amounts of money have flowed to the Clintons.
from foreign governments, foreign financiers, and businesses.
The Clinton Foundation dropping its self-imposed ban on collecting funds from foreign governments and entities.
It created a model for massive self-enrichment that allows you to go into so-called public service, but get extremely rich at the same time.
Oh yeah.
I gotta pay our bills.
Before, we had to worry about money from Wall Street and big labor.
Now we have to worry about it coming from around the world and infecting our politics.
With the Clintons, nothing is sacred.
Everything is for sale.
But we are the ones who are paying the price.
All right, that was from Peter Schweitzer's brand new movie that basically is based on his book, Clinton Cash, which premiered at Cannes in the film festival.
Now, this has not been a good week for the Clintons.
Remember, in a two-year period, 2013 to 2015, you know, between the two of them, they got close to $50 million, a lot of it in speaking fees and other money, as we're now discovering.
And this has not been a good week for Hillary Clinton.
Keep warning you to remember the name Brian Pagliano.
He's going to exercise his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination at a deposition on Monday.
He doesn't want any video recording being made of the session that's related to the Judicial Watch lawsuit.
Remember, he was also given immunity from the government prosecution after he first said that he was going to plead the Fifth.
He did plead the Fifth, and then they gave him protection.
He could be a devastating witness because I have no doubt that he provided information allowing investigators to put together the emails and other evidence, including images of Clinton on the road as Secretary of State.
And then on top of that, we've been examining the transcripts of Hillary aide Cheryl Mills and, of course, the same Judicial Watch lawsuit and some 200-plus times during a deposition that...
that went on for five hours, uh they objected to the questioning.
They didn't want to answer any questions about once again Brian Pagliano.
And she obviously knows a lot and has a lot of incriminating evidence against the former first lady.
So that is now beginning.
That noose, if you will, legal news is beginning to tighten.
Then you have the State Department's Inspector General report showing that Hillary Clinton willfully failed to comply with federal record keeping laws.
They came out with an eighty-three page report released last week, concluding that Clinton and her team consistently broke government rules for email and for record keeping.
And that Hillary repeatedly lied about her conduct.
Flat out lies.
None of her predecessors had private, unsecured email servers in spite of the talking points sent out by John Podesta and others.
So that is a big issue.
Now one of the things that I brought up yesterday is that the Clintons decided this week they were going to go after Trump University.
And unbeknownst to a lot of people, not us, uh most of you don't know that in twenty ten Bill Clinton was hired to be the chancellor of the Laureate Network.
That is the world's largest for profit university network.
And then we found out he was paid a cool sixteen point five million dollars in a four-year period between twenty ten and twenty fourteen for his role with this for-profit college.
is only one problem here.
As Clinton personally is being paid, he'd made appearances promoting laureate university in countries like Malaysia and Peru and Spain.
And that while Hillary was Secretary of State, they were also included uh as a guest, one of the leading people in this this company, to be at a dinner hosted by the U.S. State Department.
Nobody talked about the conflict of interest there.
On top of that, you've got people in Rio de Janeiro, among other countries that are complaining and leading probes into this laureate college, and they have quote turned education into a commodity that focuses on profit, not knowledge, and many students feeling they got ripped off.
Sound familiar?
Probably not because the mainstream media ignored it.
Here to shed light on him, it is Peter Schweitzer and his best selling book about the Clintons called Clinton Cash has now been made into a documentary, and congratulations on its success.
Well, thanks so much, Sean.
It's uh great to be back on with you.
And and you're exactly right.
The uh the Laureate University story is one that that I covered in the book that has been largely ignored by the media.
And it's pretty stunning when you delve into the sorts of activities that that for profit entity has been involved in, how they make their money, and the fact that after Bill gets on the payroll with Laureate, Hillary Clinton State Department starts sending grants to Laureate's sister nonprofits, something called the International Youth Foundation, sends them fifty-five million dollars in taxpayer money.
So it it is a it is a dirty, greasy arrangement that has been largely ignored by the media.
How much money did both Bill and Hillary Clinton make in that two-year period between twenty thirteen and twenty fifteen?
Well, the estimates are between forty and fifty million dollars.
And here's what people have to understand, I think that that's so important about speaking.
By the way, that that's separate and apart from Laureate University, that's it.
Correct.
That's right.
These are from the speaking fees.
From Laureate, his take was about sixteen million dollars.
Uh and all he really did was he served as the honorary chairman and they used his name and they put his name on promotional materials in places like South America and the Middle East.
About two-thirds of Laureate's business comes from people in Latin America who pay pretty large fees and are encouraged to take out loans for this for-profit entity, and there's been a lot of criticism there uh about it not really being uh worth very much, that students that flunk out of other schools that are not college material are encouraged to go to Laureate anyway, and so it it's it does not have a great reputation uh in large parts of Latin America.
So the Clintons became extraordinarily wealthy uh during and and basically capitalizing off of their positions.
Do you have direct evidence that Hillary Clinton used her influence while Secretary of State to help the Clintons pocket money for themselves?
Well, I think I think there is in the form of timing.
You know, look, I I obviously was not a a fly on the wall.
I don't have access to those thirty something thousand emails that she deleted.
But you know, it's it's simply common sense, I think.
When you look at foreign entities in places like Nigeria and Russia and China who are throwing money at the Clintons, often paying Bill Clinton three times what his normal speaking fee is while she's Secretary of State.
And then nine days later a decision that she makes is favorable and beneficial to those people that have paid them the money.
The only explanations are Sean that it's all coincidence, which I think is incredibly naive, or these people are paying money and they're getting something in return for their money.
Well give us a specific example.
Well I I'd give you an example uh uh from Bill Clinton's biggest single speaking fee which is seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars which he gets from a Swedish telecom company called Ericsson.
Now what's important to point out is Bill Clinton's speaking fee before his wife becomes Secretary of State is about a hundred and seventy five thousand dollars.
That that's good money, don't get me wrong.
Once she becomes Secretary of State, he starts getting big whopping speaking fees.
Erickson is going to pay him seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for a single speech.
And what's curious by the way what a speech usually entails is maybe a what they call a grip and greed and a photo line and and a certain number of what they call clicks where maybe a hundred people or two hundred people or maybe maybe three hundred I don't know but they get time to come in very quickly, shake a hand, take a picture, leave boom.
Correct.
Yeah, and then he gives a speech for an hour then and usually included in the fees is some type of private jet airplane to take them to and from right?
That's exactly right.
And what's curious about Ericsson Sean is that when Hillary Clinton becomes Secretary of State in in early 2009 already Ericsson is having problems with the State Department because Erikson sells telecom equipment to the government of Iran, to uh the government of Belarus, to uh North Korea, to these oppressive regimes.
So there are all these cables that come out through WikiLeaks of Hillary Clinton telling the Swedish foreign minister you need to have Ericsson stop selling telecom equipment to Iran.
And there's all this pressure to pass legislation on Capitol Hill to broaden sanctions on Iran to include telecom equipment that would include Ericsson so it's in the midst of all this Erickson decides to pay Bill Clinton seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for a speech they've never paid for a speech by him before they suddenly decide to do it.
He gives that speech in two thousand eleven nine days after he is paid Hillary Clinton's State Department comes out with a statement that they are not going to broaden sanctions on Iran to include telecom that they are going to count on companies like Erickson to quote unquote police themselves end quote.
Now you could look at that and say well it's just coincidence.
But the problem is you see that kind of pattern emerge again and again and again.
And clearly, to me, people are getting something for their money from the Clinton.
Unbelievable.
So it's obviously a quid pro quo.
You don't have to be a genius to figure that out, right?
And certainly, if it's not a quid pro quo, it is a conflict of interest, the appearance of impropriety.
You would think there's some type of government law to prevent it, but there's not.
Well, I mean, if you look at the recent political prosecutions, you know, Governor McDonald down in Virginia, who's in jail, in his particular case, he got about $175,000 in gifts that he was legally entitled to take.
And then he was convicted because he took favorable acts.
action as Virginia governor for the benefit of the people that gave him gifts.
He went to jail for that.
Senator Menendez the gifts the gifts were legal in the McDu McDonald case they admitted he took it legally entitled to take them in the uh Senator Menendez case, Menendez is being prosecuted by the Obama Department of Justice because there was a donor who lived in South Florida who Menendez allegedly tried to intervene and help with federal medical uh officials because this this man ran a medical practice in South Florida.
In this in both of those cases there was no email that said if you do this I will do that.
It was all based on the timing and the flow of money.
And so my point is in those particular cases prosecutions took place and I would say it was justified.
Why on earth is it not justified in the case of the Clintons where the amounts of money are bigger, the pattern is much more established And it's much more consistent than it was in either of those two cases.
I mean, I would think this ought to be as big, if not even bigger, than everything the that is being investigated vis vis the Clinton email server scandal.
Is there any known investigation into this?
Now, there had been reports that Clinton Cash connections, the Clinton Foundation was being investigated, but not necessarily these quid pro quos.
What I can tell you, Sean, is that there is an FBI investigation looking precisely at these issues.
I can tell you that, and that's all that I tell you at this point.
Is that separate and apart from the investigation into the Clinton email server or is it in conjunction with there is some overlap part of what they're trying to find in the emails are the deleted emails.
Remember, Hillary deleted more emails than she turned over.
And the question is, were those deleted emails that fit that the Clinton team called private and personal.
Did that include precisely the types of communications that involved donations to the Clinton Sound Courtney?
We're talking about some 30,000 emails, and Hillary gave us very specific details about what the deleted emails were.
Well, what she said was the Secretary of State, she sent some 30,000 emails related to her mother passing away, Chelsea's wedding, and yoga.
So that's what she said the 30,000 emails were related to.
Yeah, and that's I think that's really the key question.
And what we've actually done is if you look at the charts, the Clintons uh Hillary Clinton is Secretary of State on average sent and received twenty-one emails a day.
The problem is when she turned over what she said was the complete set of professional emails.
There are certain periods where she goes 48, 72 uh uh hours without sending or receiving a single email as Secretary of State, uh which is kind of hard to believe.
And and I think it's kind of equivalent to, you know, those 18 minutes that that Richard Nixon uh erased off of the Nixon tapes.
I think that is going to be a uh a major part of of the investigation, looking at the overlap between the emails and what is in my mind widespread public corruption involving her tenure as Secretary of State and favors done for foreign donors who are putting money in the Clinton's pockets.
Unbelievable.
Now you're really saying something here that we may not have known before that you think there might be a separate FBI investigation into Clinton financial issues uh that are maybe more that are related not necessarily to the Clinton Foundation, which we were told was being investigated.
Correct.
They're they're looking at um there's several statutes that deal with uh public corruption, and that can entail, you know, politicians getting money in their pockets.
It could also entail money getting a few.
Well, then wait, hang on a second.
Why is this not been reported previously?
What's that?
Why has that not been reported previously?
And how do you think that's the one?
Well, no, there was a previous report that Fox had on the Clinton Foundation, and that was specifically related to this issue of public corruption.
Right, but it sounds to me like this is going beyond that.
Because that, from what I understood at that story at the time, that we were told at one point that the FBI investigation into the email server scandal was almost complete, that the FBI, we were told, there are reports, that they were able to recover most, if not all, of the thirty thousand plus deleted emails, and that the investigation had then moved on to the Clinton Foundation, potential quid pro quos that were involved with that.
And but what you're saying is it might the scope of this may even go further than even that.
Uh yes, that's right.
If you look at the the relevant statues in in play here, Sean, uh it deals with personal self-enrichment, and that can mean money going to the Clinton Foundation, which is the an entity they control, or it could be related to speaking fees.
I got a roll, but Peter Schweitzer, now I know you debuted this at Cannes and the Cannes Film Festival, but it will debut uh I guess the week of the DNC or the week before the DNC uh and we appreciate you being with us.
Thank you.
Thanks for having me, Sean.
Well, I've said all along that I didn't really intend to make an endorsement in the primary.
That's for the voters to decide that I'm going to support our nominee.
But I've been very defensive of Trump, and I continue to be and will continue to be, because I feel like that a lot of people have said, oh, it would be terrible.
Look, I think it's great that millions of voters have come into our party that have never voted for a Republican before.
We can't win the general election if all we have is a narrow slice of Republicans.
We've got to get Democrats and independents.
And he's pulled a lot of people already getting more votes at this point of the process than either Mitt Romney or John McCain received all the way through the convention when they won the nomination.
All right, that's Governor Mike Huckabee, who himself ran for president and supporting Donald Trump, keeping his promise, and all the other presidential candidates at the time made the promise that they would support the eventual nominee, and some have failed to do so and say they will not honor their word.
Governor, welcome back.
How are you?
Sean, I'm doing great.
And I tell you, if these guys do not honor their word and they fail to do what they said on a national telecast they would do, I think they're finished politically.
Well, I don't think some of them even care.
I think some of them are just angry and bitter.
Look, I've never seen a primary that doesn't get a little bloody.
I mean, you've lived through it.
I mean, you've been through a bunch of them.
I mean, it's it's a blood sport.
It's not for the faint hearted.
Donald Trump fought hard.
I would think that at this point that if you were a supporter of any of these sixteen other candidates, that maybe the tactics that work for Donald Trump in the primary using them against Hillary would be something you'd admire.
Well, not only should we should should we admire it, but we should recognize that Donald Trump has uh defeated all of us.
Look, I I love the the idea that I was going to be on that stage and end up being the nominee.
That didn't happen.
But I am committed to my party, I'm committed to Donald Trump.
I'm committed to defeating Hillary Clinton.
Uh the voters have spoken.
And if I were to do anything other than support Donald Trump, essentially what I'm saying is those millions of voters out there are stupid and I'm smart.
And Sean, I'm not going to do that.
And I think all these guys who are holdouts, and I know some of them have some hurt feelings.
I get it.
But look, this is a big boy game.
And if you play in the NFL, you're gonna get pushed back on your rear end.
You're gonna get hit.
And if you don't look, if I didn't want if I didn't accept that being in the public eye means that I get punched a lot in the media, I don't belong in this business.
Exactly.
I don't think you can whine and cry, and I'm a little sick of some of the way I'm sick of how some of these people are acting.
Let me ask you about this.
Um look, no one's ever said that you're anything but a conservative, and uh I have made a choice.
I'm not gonna spend my airtime every day convincing people who they can vote for.
But this is what I know after so many interviews with all of the candidates, including you at the time, but Donald Trump has had more now because he I've had many since he has now secured the nomination.
But he says he's pro-life.
I have no reason to doubt that story.
I actually thought during the first debate that was a pretty that was a pretty profound change in him when he explained how he became pro-life.
He's pro-second amendment.
He gave a list of Supreme Court justices he would choose from.
He has promised to rebuild the military.
He's identified radical extremists as an enemy that needs to be defeated.
He said he would fix the VA.
He said he'd build a wall and secure the border.
He promised to repeal Obamacare.
He has promised to expand coal mining and drilling and fracking and nuclear and new technology, something I think will add millions of jobs to the economy.
He said he'd end Common Core, he'd send education back to the States.
He said he'd negotiate better, freer, fair fairer trade deals.
He has pledged to get spending on under control and move towards a balanced budget.
Now, what part of that's not conservative?
It's very conservative, but look, the reason that a lot of the people in Washington and the insiders, the establishment and the elites like Bill Crystal can't handle this, is because it's their little game that's going to be messed up if Donald Trump is elected.
Uh he he doesn't owe them anything.
He's not a wholly owned subsidiary of the Washington to Wall Street uh power brokers, and he will be a disruptive president, and we need one.
And that's great with me.
So you know, I thought I thought Newt had an interesting observation on TV with the with me this week when he said he has disrupted the entire establishment.
And then he went into more detail.
The Democratic establishment, the Republican establishment, this incestuous relationship with quote the media and the political world that a lot of people, Governor, I'm sure do not know about, but you know about, and that is that they go to the same parties and they go to dinner together and they wink and they nod and they get favorable press if they're given access.
I mean, isn't that all going on every day?
Goes on every day.
And it's it's why that things don't change even if Republicans get the majority.
Who who made it possible for Obama to have the Iranian deal, full funding for Obamacare, planned parenthood funding?
Um Republicans.
Republicans did that.
And they're getting what they justly deserve.
They're getting spanked, and they need to be happy.
They're only getting spanked And not executed because there is seething rage out in the country for those who have fought to help some of these guys get elected and they get there and they surrendered to Obama and people are sick of it.
And I think uh that's why we've seen the the spirit of this election, and frankly, Donald Trump uh gives me great comfort.
I I tell people I don't have any hesitation going out there and uh genuinely supporting supporting Donald Trump.
And let me be specific.
I actually I you know what I I actually find his fight that we didn't see in Dole and we didn't see in in Romney for most of the campaign, and we didn't see in uh McCain.
I find it refreshing.
I know you gotta go, but I'll I'll let you make one last comment on that.
Well, I I want to point out that Mitt Romney was a latecomer to the notion of uh being pro-life.
You know, he he had supported and had a fundraiser at his home for planned parenthood at one time, brought uh same sex marriage to America, the first governor to do it and marched in gay pride parades.
But we all went out there and supported them because he told us that he had changed.
I find it especially off putting that he is the one who has led the never Trump movement, and I just feel like that he has really soiled himself uh by taking such a harsh position because it's uh tantamount to support.
Yeah.
All right, Governor Huckabee, appreciate it.
And by the way, I shouldn't have to say thank you for keeping your word.
It should have it should be something every candidate does, but at least you did keep your word.
And by the way, I made the same promise to my audience uh that I wasn't going to endorse, and I would support the eventual nominee who the people chose, and they chose in record numbers.
Thank you, sir.
You bet.
Take care.
800, 94, one Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
All right.
Uh Marco is in Los Angeles, uh K E I B. What's going on?
How are you, sir?
Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call.
Uh you had a portion on your show that showed that how the media was uh uh choreographing.
Yeah, that was the telemundo piece, yeah.
Right, right.
Uh well, I went to the Anaheim uh rally out here, and uh as I left, they were uh uh regulating the traffic down the street, and I was standing there and there was some there was some of the uh protesters.
The media came up.
No one was engaging the protesters.
They came up and said, Hey, don't you want your time on television?
Don't you want fame and fortune?
You act you actually heard them say that?
Yeah, they said it to me.
And oh, they said it to you.
Uh you know the funny thing is the the all of a sudden there's no animation among protesters.
Let's say it's a group of fifty or a hundred people, then all of a sudden the TV cameras come, then the chants begin, and and it's sort of sort of like on cue.
All right, here's the chanting, here's the flag burning, here's the Mexican flag, here's the this, here's the that.
And in many ways, the media's presence creates the choreographing of these events.
It's so it's so bad.
And people at home will thinking, oh, this is spontaneous, this is going on, and the media just caught it.
That's not hap what happened at all.
In what many ways they caused it.
That's a great point.
That's a great point.
All right, my friend, thank you.
800, 941 Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
Jeremy is in Oklahoma.
Jeremy in Henrietta, Oklahoma.
How are you, sir?
Pretty good.
How are you doing?
I'm good.
What's going on?
Well, yesterday you were talking about uh the walking up to the drive-thru and the and the handicapped man, the black guy that you know was had with the lawsuit.
Well, I personally I drive a truck, and there have been a lot of instances where I have to walk up to the drive-thru because the lobby is closed, and you know, you can't obviously you can't fit in.
By the way, Linda, are you listening?
Put your microphone on.
Are you listening?
See, it's not that unusual.
I think Jeremy has a special reason considering that his rig is too large to fit into the drive-thru.
Well, one of the times I Are you driving a rig?
I don't think so.
No, but I was r reminded that we had uh uh the tour bus when we were out on tour uh and Alicia, who used to be a producer on this program, does a morning show now out in Los Angeles, and Alicia reminded us that we on a number of occasions would pull the tour bus over and we'd have to walk over to the drive-thru.
So that's again a large vehicle that does not fit.
And if the doors were open as opposed to what Jeremy is.
You are so stubborn.
Do you know that you were?
No, I'm just right, and right is right.
Yeah, and right is right.
And I've walked up to, just like Jeremy, I walked up to a drive-thru window, and I don't think it's a big deal.
Jeremy, I'd love to hear what you have to say.
Go ahead of it.
They they could do something to make it so that, you know, I don't know, with the glass, they could do something so that people can't walk up.
Because not everyone ha not everyone has a vehicle.
Yeah, I mean, uh what's the big deal?
You know, uh listen, um if if somebody is blind and they're walking up, you have to assume that they weren't driving a car.
So they were walking in the street, and you've got to assume that people are you have to be in control of your own vehicle at all times, and maybe if the door to the restaurant is closed because it's late at night, but the drive-thru is open.
If it was my business and somebody walked up, I'd say, Hi, what can I what can I get you?
Can I ask Jeremy a question?
Would you mind if I asked him a question?
Well, you co-hosting again.
No, no, I just have a brief question.
I just have a brief question and then I'll stop.
Jeremy, may I ask you if the regular doors were open, would you have walked through the drive-thru or entered the regular restaurant?
Well, probably gone in, because chances are being in a truck I probably would have used the restroom also.
Right, because that's normal.
But they're, you know, uh for I guess for for safety reasons, they close the lobby at a certain time, you know, ten o'clock or whatever.
No, no, no, no, that's fine.
I just want to know if it was open and the option was provided for you to walk into the restaurant, would you have walked into the restaurant as opposed to walking through the drive-thru.
I am saying that these companies have to make horrible decisions that it that a normal business owner would not make.
They would accommodate if somebody wanted to walk up to a drive-thru uh and keep them as a satisfied customer instead of uh making up rules that for whatever reason are just ridiculous.
Or we can stop bending over to every single thing that happens.
Well, I'm just saying that I think that if I'm own a business, I want to sell my hamburgers, you walk up to my drive-thru, I'm going to serve you.
I am going to serve you with a smile, and I'm going to say please and thank you, and please come back and see us again.
That's that I think is good to do that.
All right, thank you, Jeremy.
Appreciate it.
Linda thinks you validated her point, but you did not.
You validated my point.
Uh as we go uh back to our phones.
Keith is in New York listening to the all new AM 710 WOR, the voice of New York and New Jersey.
Hi.
How's it going, Sean?
Big fan.
What's going on?
Uh what I wanted to talk about was uh I do search engine optimization for a living, and uh what that entails is basically you want to rank websites in a higher spot on Google.
And something caught my eye yesterday was that the phrase crooked hillary was not showing up on Google.
Like I like you would actually have to type in crooked hillary to get that to show up.
Now, like if you typed in lying, just the word lying, lying pet is the second thing that shows up.
Or no, hang on a second.
So I want people to understand what it is you actually do.
For example, you can manipulate where certain things show up in Google because you know how to do it, right?
Yeah.
All right.
Now there are people for example, there are people in my industry that actually pay because maybe there's a negative story, and instead of it being the number one item that shows up on Google, they want it to be on page ten, correct?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you know how to do that.
I have no idea how that works, by the way.
That's fascinating to me.
All right, so my next question is you think the Clinton campaign actually did something to manipulate this?
Oh, for sure.
I mean, just because the word crooked hillary, if that was searched over 40,000 times on Google.
And the fact that crooked Hillary Burton is the suggested phrase that pops up when you search it.
I mean, no, who would search that in their right mind?
Cook crooked Hillary Burning.
How much does it cost to bury a story?
Ah, I don't know.
I mean, I that that depends.
Depends on the story.
Yeah.
In other words, you you would have the ability if Sean Hannity sucks is the headline, and I wanted to bury that on page ten of Google, you can get that done.
I mean, that would probably require millions and millions of millions of kids.
Uh I don't know.
Yes, it could obviously be done.
Or you can get it on page three or page four.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Listen, I've heard of people that use these services.
I didn't know you guys actually really existed, but now I do.
But that's that is very observant.
I think that's interesting, because the only people that would have any interest in burying that would be Crooked Hillary.
Um let's see how long they're willing to pay for it.
Like if you search Hillary Clinton and Google images, all of her photos that show up are all very presidential looking.
I mean, there might be a couple embarrassing ones, but if you search Trump, I mean he he looks like a fool, but I mean he's So Trump's not manipulating a buy it with Google, I think.
I feel like Google is kind of being a little bit shady when it comes to the case.
I'm glad you told us that I've I've heard of this before.
Um and I know people that have actually paid for that service, and uh that's fascinating that you do that for a living.
I bet you you're pretty busy too, right?
Oh, for sure.
And uh one last thing about Google Valley.
I gotta go.
I'm I just um I'm just out of time.
I'm glad you called though.
I really appreciate it.
There are no easy answers to Syria, and there are no simple answers to the changes that are taking place in much of the Middle East and North Africa.
But so many families need help right now.
They don't have time.
That's why the United States is increasing the number of refugees who we welcome within our borders.
That's why we will continue to be the largest donor of assistance to support those refugees.
And today we are launching new efforts to ensure that our people and our businesses, our universities, and our NGOs can help as well.
Because in the faces of suffering families, our nation of immigrants sees ourselves.
Alright, News Roundup and Information Overload Hour here this Friday on the Sean Hannity Show.
Toll free our telephone number is 800-941-SEAN if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
So, So we have all these stories that are coming out, and you hear President Obama, even though he's been warned by James Clapper, the National Director of Intelligence, and James Comey, the FBI director, and Steinbeck, the assistant FBI director, and the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, and and General John Allen, the special envoy to defeat ISIS under Obama.
Well, he's still going to bring in Syrian refugees after being told repeatedly that that refugee population will be infiltrated by radical Islamists.
Now, Mitch McConnell in an interview yesterday revealed what he would say to President Trump if he was asked to draft a legisl draft legislation to put a temporary ban on people coming from Muslim countries until we could properly vet them.
And his answer was that he would not.
He just said he wouldn't.
I'm like, I'd say no.
I think it's a really bad idea.
Oh, I thought it was about securing the American people.
Homeland Security Chief has said the U.S. has approved 4,700 Syrian refugees into the U.S. By the way, I you know, I could certainly understand the plight of people wanting to escape civil war in their own country, but there are other ways we can help them.
We can help create a safe zone within Syria or outside of Syria or in Jordan or elsewhere where these people would be given food and medicine and supplies, etc.
And then when the war is over, they can go back to their own homes where I would think they'd probably want to return.
Now the Department of Justice has resisted a court order to provide ethics training for its lawyers and wants to hide the names of illegal aliens granted amnesty.
Why is that?
Why would they want to hide the names?
I don't know.
You know, you have uh representative Henry qu Henry Quayar.
The border is safer than Washington, D.C. Well, that's not what the Drudge Report told us uh last night when it broke the story about smuggling network guided illegal immigrants from the Middle East terrorist hotbeds right to the U.S. border.
Something I've been saying is gonna happen for years and years and years.
We see the impact that this is having in Europe.
Germany arrested three suspected Syrian terrorists, and they foiled the possible Islamic State plot.
And there was a story about how the European Union killers and rapists we've failed to deport, and the UK's inability to expel thousands of foreign criminals undermining the case for the EU, say MPs.
Well, that's a problem.
You know, we there was a story out on news busters today that networks covered the death of this guerrilla in the Cincinnati Zoo six times more than ISIS beheading Christians.
Well, where's the media's priority?
You heard about this UCLA shooting suspect.
Well, he came to the United States on a foreign student visa in two thousand and one after graduating from a prestigious Indian technology university, was granted permanent legal status in the U.S. in 2014.
Are we doing a good enough job vetting these people from other countries?
Now, on top of all of that, then you have issues involving this flesh-eating disease that has been brought into the country, uh, brought in by Syrian migrants to to space camps.
That has now been reported.
You have the Middle East illegals, you know, literally now guided across the U.S. border.
You've got ill illegal immigrants bringing TB and measles back to the United States.
That's been reported on now multiple times in the last two weeks.
You got a judge blaming uh nightclub, not rapists, for the rape of a teenager in Britain in Toronto, a Muslim Muslim men are it's okay there to beat women as a sign of love.
And Christian women are beheaded by Muslims in Nigeria.
And Obama's allowing at least 10,000 migrants from Syria into this country.
Joining us now, Pam Geller, president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative, editor and publisher of Atlas Shrugged, co author of the brand new book, the Post American Presidency, Obama's War on America, and stop the Islamization of America.
And Jessica Vaughn is a director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.
And uh welcome both of you back to the program.
Thank you.
Pam, does that sound like it's a smart idea and and when you hear Mitch McConnell sounding a lot like Barack Obama on the issue of a temporary ban, even though our national director of intelligence and all these other top intelligence officials warning ISIS will be infiltrated, will infiltrate the refugee population?
Why why would they put why would they put political correctness above the safety of the American people?
Well, that's why there's a Trump phenomenon.
It's a revolution within the GOP because of men like McConnell.
And ISIS vowed back in February of two thousand and fifteen to send half a million migrants, an army, they said, into Europe.
And they've made good on that.
The real refugees in the Middle East are Christians.
And the Obama administration's preference for Muslims indicates that he isn't really acting on humanitarian grounds, but out of his plan to increase the Muslim population and make America just like the rest of the world, with just as much unrest and crime and terrorism.
I mean, the flesh-eating bacteria, that in that that should be uh, you know, a prohibition.
These uh wild numbers of tuberculosis cases, I think it's twenty-two percent of the uh of the resettled refugees in Minnesota tested positive uh for T B. Uh one third of the refugees in Vermont, I mean, uh have tested for T B. This is uh this is a ticking time bomb.
And all of the stories you cited, if it wasn't for you saw Sean, and of course my website, they're completely ignored by the mainstream media.
And uh, you know, you can you can avoid uh reality, but you can't avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.
Yeah.
What's your reaction to all of this, Jessica?
Well, the the reason we have immigration controls is to protect the public from all manner of threats, whether it's a public health threat, whether it's a threat from jihadists or you know, criminals or or the threat of having our native labor force displaced by illegal immigration or even legal immigration.
And of course, this administration and and many in the Republican leaderships are so isolated from the rest of America that they don't understand the consequences of not controlling immigration.
They bought into this idea that we can kick out all of these threats magically with you know with magic powers of technology from the uh huge numbers of people who are coming in not only illegally but also on uh legal guest worker visas or tourist visas or people in our immigration process because we simply do not have the ability to properly screen people to know if they're a threat or not.
And of course many of them are not, but there are enough who are, which as you said, with with jihadist groups promising to infiltrate, and people who are coming illegally, like the woman from Honduras, who knew she was infected with Zika, but wanted to get to the United States so she could have her baby here and get what she you know thought would be superior care.
All of these many um avenues of entry into the United States are not regulated, not controlled right now, even though the president has the ability and the tools within existing law to use our immigration laws to keep the public safe.
The thing is is when something happens, Pam, and it seems inevitable, then uh what happens then?
Who's really to blame?
Because the warning signs are out there.
We're being warned by everybody.
We see what has happened to Europe.
We see that even Great Britain is not immune to this with their eighty-eight Sharia courts and all the accommodation in France and Germany and and elsewhere, there's been a a major price in Belgium and Sweden and and everywhere in between.
I mean, there seems to have been there now seems to be a lack of assimilation in Europe by Islamists that have moved to these countries, and their numbers have grown such that they now have gained and garnered quite quite amount of uh of political power.
You think this is by design.
Well, it it is by design.
First of all, how could Obama or the Obama administration possibly vet uh uh migr the the migrants coming in if they refuse to recognize the ideology behind this war?
Uh how are they going to distinguish between quote unquote a moderate Muslim and and a jihadi?
I mean, it's absurd on it on its face.
And we see that Europe is changing.
Like nothing happens for decades and decades happen in a day.
You have Sweden segregating their swimming pools for uh only men and only women uh because of all the sexual attacks, and of course because Muslim women want to swim, they want to swim alone.
Every time that Muslims come become a certain point of the population, the country is altered forever.
And w whether Western surviv uh societies can survive, they won't, not as free and pluralistic societies.
You see now the EU is coming down on any criticism of it the migration policies of um Islam.
I mean this is Sharia law, this is Islamic law, and they are enforcing it.
Everywhere Western law and Islamic law conflict, it is Western law that must give way.
And that's what Obama is importing into this country, and people should be deeply deeply concerned.
And again, I can't I can't help but say this inherent conflict of civilizations if you grow up under Sharia law, and for example, it's oppressive uh abuse of women and telling them how to dress and not letting them drive and not letting them vote and four male eyewitnesses uh needed for rape and and men deciding if they go to school or if they go to work.
Um isn't there an inherent constitutional conflict with Sharia and an American constitutional law?
And doesn't that mean that if people want to come or immigrate from from Muslim countries that there's got to be some indication that they come here with the intention of assimilation?
Absolutely.
But the problem is, yes, the constitution is a magnificent and brilliant document, uh the most in human history.
But the fact is if if no one is adhering to it and it's not being enforced, it's it's just a piece of paper.
How did how did Great Britain of all countries how did they concede to give and create eighty-eight separate Sharia courts?
Well, we we're seeing that in America.
There are Sharia courts in Texas.
Right.
Because at the same time we're having this phenomenon of unprecedented levels of immigration are assimilating institutions like our educational system, our government, our churches, and others are really deteriorating and losing the will to you know, they've lost that ability to turn immigrants into Americans.
The that ability that we once had during the last great wave of immigration, and and while there is some, I agree with you, there's some inherent incompatibility um in some with with American culture and and radical Islam, um, in the past some so well, I think some people are coming from the Middle East to get away from that fundamentalism, but others um you know see it as a war on Western.
How do you determine the difference though?
I mean, for example, aren't aren't radicals aren't radicals trained to lie to blend in and to say all the right things during any type of of meeting or questioning or interrogation or background check?
Aren't they aren't they purposely trained to lie to um the whatever immigration officials they may come into contact with?
Yes, and our and our immigration officials are are forbidden from asking too many questions or asking questions that might get at that uh nowadays anyway.
Um the they are told to pretty much rubber stamp approval of all applicants, and you know, that has come back to to uh to bite us.
Is it a fair statement that Americans are gonna die as a result of this policy?
Yes.
They already have.
Listen, what what what our immigration officials refuse to either learn, recognize, or accept is that Al Hijra, a Muslim immigration under Islam Al Hijra is a means of supplanting the native population and reaching the position of power.
It's a tenet of Islamic imperialism.
It is a religious imperative.
The history of Islam begins with Muhammad's uh immigration into into Medina.
This is a religious imperative.
It's much bigger than just uh quote unquote escaping a civil war.
First of all, they should be fighting for their country there.
Second of all, back in two thousand eleven, two thousand twelve, my organization issued a uh a letter to the uh the UN and to the Obama administration that there was an impending genocide of Christians.
You didn't see anything.
You didn't hear anything about what was going on with the Christians.
Millions, millions of Christians are being exterminated.
There's only one safe place for Christians in the Middle East, and that's in the State of Israel.
You didn't hear anything.
So this idea now that you're going to bring in the perpetrators because I assure you many of the assassins of the and the perps of these this genocide are coming to the West.
I've got to go, but so you're saying that this infiltration is even going on but very dangerous, very sad and uh very preventable and as we watch this unfold, um remember that many people tried to warn you but apparently our voices are not being heard.
Uh Pam Geller, thank you and Jessica Vaughn thank you.
They're throwing things at the guy who has a Trump shirt on.
Oh he just got knocked in the back of the head he just got punched in the face and now they're rushing him.
Now they're knocking him to the ground and you're watching as this Trump supporter is hit over Mexican now they're kicking this person.
In another area of this protest and seeing a Make America great again hat lit on fire.
That's not uncommon either after these rallies that we see somebody after these people who have Trump things on Donald Trump.
F*** U.S. imperialism.
All right, 25 now till the top of the hour on this Friday.
We'll get to your calls here in a few minutes.
800-941-SHAWN.
So, towards the end of Hannity last night, our own Jonathan Hunn at the Fox News Channel got in the middle of this ruckus and late on TV towards the end of the hour last night.
You saw this person literally get punched in the face.
I mean, there was so much done and said last night.
A number of arrests after the Trump rally.
And protesters followed Trump supporters to their cars as they left the convention center.
in San Jose and around the corner away from the police protection on San Carlos Street.
A mob mentality took over and we were seeing this unfold as I was going off the air last night.
You have a young guy wearing a build the wall t-shirt was assaulted by several young men, fearing for the man's safety a reporter from KPIX 5 yelled uh at him to get away for several minutes there was no police uh no presence of police the protesters were punching and thumping Trump supporters and throwing eggs and a lot of what we have seen in in other events where people don't where the police have been very slow to respond and these these extremists on the left going out there attacking and
attacking and assaulting and trying to disrupt the freedom of speech and the opportunity to assemble of their fellow Americans.
Now there is a group called Latinas for Trump Madeline Morrera is one of them also Michelle Sanchez just like AJ Delgado by the way they're outraged by the claims that Donald Trump that he's not a candidate who cares about women or the Latino community.
Madeline and Michelle are Cuban legal immigrants they pursue the American dream.
They're successful they're making it happen.
Madeline is a lawyer in Miami.
Michelle does marketing for uh Turnsbury and owns her own marketing business.
She used to work at Trump National Dural and they're both outraged like all of us at the violence displayed last night by many waving their Mexican flags and screaming and physically assaulting Trump supporters.
Welcome both of you to the program.
Thank you so much, Hannity.
It's a pleasure.
So, you know, I got into this last night a little bit with Geraldo, and the fact that Donald Trump had the temerity and I think the courage to go after a judge who has an obvious conflict of interest and is a member of the La Rasa Lawyers Group, and that we know that the law firm of Robbins Geller, appointed by the judge in this case to represent a plaintiff in the Trump University class action suit, had donated $2,700 to Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Robinsgeller paid the Clintons nearly a half a million dollars in a speech.
So I think he's right to point out that this guy has a a bias in this case and should have recused himself, but yet that is being portrayed by the media as somehow being anti-Hispanic or anti-Latino.
What is your reaction, Madeline?
Sean, here's my reaction.
The Libals in the media and DC should hang their heads in shame for their obsession with labeling groups of Americans and stereotyping them the way that they claim that the Republicans do.
If you're Hispanics, you fit into a labeled box and you are this.
You want this, you need the Republicans are the ones who see Americans in one category, Americans.
So I would say that.
What is your reaction though?
The general consensus, like for example, I went down to the border, Madeline, and I I went with Rick Perry, but I'd been down there ten or eleven times before, and I saw firsthand the drug warehouses.
I saw firsthand uh gang members being arrested.
I've seen a lot of things.
I've seen the tunnels that were dug and and human trafficking that goes on, etc.
etcetera.
When I was down with Rick Perry, he pointed out that in a seven-year period that six hundred and fifty-five thousand crimes, including murder, including rape, were committed against Texans alone by illegal immigrants.
So Donald Trump points out that this is happening.
How does that get turned into a race issue or somehow anti-Hispanic issue when it's really the protection of the American people issue?
Exactly.
It's not white versus brown.
This is good versus bad.
Right versus wrong.
Honor is colorblind.
What we're seeing at the border, what we saw last night was an un-American disgrace.
I've never seen anything like it in this country in my entire life.
And this is the same mindless mob that turned our homeland, once called the Pearl of the Caribbean, into the North Korea of the Caribbean.
It's a distraction.
That's what it is.
Trying to try to marginalize people and care categorize them.
Michelle, what did you think of what you saw last night and what we've seen at previous rallies?
What did I think?
I mean, where do I even begin?
It's absolute anarchy, it's chaos.
It it's absolutely outraging as far as I'm concerned.
You know, as a Hispanic to see the the treatment of even a fellow Hispanics being attacked, being punched, women getting eggs thrown at them.
What happens?
What what about women's rights?
I mean, it it as far as I'm concerned, yesterday made no sense to me.
I've been to rallies.
I've been the Trump supporters.
They are quiet, they are respectful, they are excited with one another.
I mean, there is just so much positivity.
And as far as I'm concerned, this hatred is coming from one end.
Yeah.
Well, I got this uh idea.
Now, do you think the poll numbers that show that Hillary has a a majority of the Hispanic support?
Do you think they're accurate?
I'll ask you both that question, Madeline first.
Well, I I think it's understating it.
I think he I think he might get uh at least 40 percent.
I think George W. Bush got around that number.
He might even break the record because I think Hispanic citizens, you know, who came here legally, they're the only ones who can vote.
I think they see, hey, that's not me.
Those those that mob, the the people ignoring our well, that's not me.
I I did it right.
So why would they go along with her her pandering?
I mean, she again, her she and the Democrats, they want they're trying to tell Hispanics, well, this is you.
This is what you want.
You you think this, and I think they're gonna say, um, no, I I'm a good person.
I came here, I got a job, I supported my family.
And you know what?
Frankly, I think he's gonna possibly get the highest percentage of the Hispanic vote that any Republican has ever gotten since Reagan.
Yeah.
Uh Michelle, do you agree with that?
I couldn't agree more.
I mean, Madon said it absolutely perfectly.
Um, as far as I'm concerned, you know, Hillary has been taking um advantage of being an American socialite for many years.
It's very difficult for me as a working Monday through Friday tax paying citizen to relate with someone that's been taking advantage of the system for so long.
So um, you know, it it I I again I just couldn't agree more with what Malin said.
Well, you both live in Miami, where our friend A.J. Delgado lives, and uh apparently this this movement, Latinas and Latinos, uh uh and Hispanics for for Trump is is growing every day.
So uh I wish you all the best.
Thank you all for being with us.
We appreciate it.
Thank you, Sean, and and you're a good man for reaching out to us acknowledging the existence of conservative Hispanics.
Thank you very much for that.
All right, thank you so much.
800 941 Sean is a toll free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program.
Marcus is in Cleveland, Ohio.
Of course, we'll be there for the Republican National Committee.
How are you, Marcus?
Great.
How are you doing, Sean?
I'm good.
What's going on?
I absolutely love this show and uh this is my first time able to get through, and I can't believe um that this is what I'm gonna be saying on the show.
That I believe that the current Republican front runner or uh assumed nominee in Donald Trump is potentially a left wing radical.
Some of the things that he says that he's gonna force companies to bring jobs back from overseas, Scott Walker should have raised taxes instead of shrinking benefits for teacher unions.
NAFTA's a bad deal.
I like part of Obamacare, and in the worst of all, the most disgraceful, idiotic liberal talking point ever uttered.
Bush lied about WMDs in Iraq.
As soon as Trump said that, I knew I could never vote for him.
I am I don't consider myself part of a never Trump movement or anything like that, but I am worried that he is as far left and very radical in his opinion.
And uh I think that on some key issues, Hillary may even be more conservative than he is.
Now, let's go through the list.
Is it is is Hillary pro life?
Or does he even attempt to say no?
Is Hillary pro second amendment?
No.
Who do you think would appoint better Supreme Court Justice?
Let's go through the list.
You said let me go through a list of important issues.
Who do you think would be better on judges?
Trump or Hillary.
I I would say that the well, that's the one issue, Sean.
I would a hundred percent agree that Trump is a good thing.
Who do you think would be better on judges?
Who would be better on the second amendment?
The Second Amendment, uh, based on what he says and it changes every day, though.
I guess it would be Trump on that, but those are not the most key issues for me.
All right.
Do you believe his promise to rebuild the military?
I do not.
Do you believe his promise to fix the VA?
I do not.
Do you not like the fact that unlike Hillary and Obama, he has the courage to identify radical Islamic extremists for who they are and say that we need to defeat them?
He says that one day, but then the next day he goes out and I've never heard him say Warren Iraq and Do you believe do you believe he'd build the wall?
Do you think Hillary would build the wall?
I think that he I think he might.
I don't think that Hillary would.
Do you think he would repeal Obamacare as he has promised again and again?
I do not because uh some of his talking points earlier is that he specifically said I'm not very good.
I've interviewed him and I could tell you I have at least ten interviews where he said he would do it.
Do you think he would uh keep his promise to to advance and expand coal mining and fracking and and drilling and nuclear technology?
Do you think he's would keep that promise?
I do not.
I I think that in it shows with the Well then you just don't believe him.
I mean, I look I can't vouch for for whether or not he's gonna get all these things done, but certainly his positions are far, far different.
Seriously, than what Hillary Clinton's saying.
You just uh you know, I I understand, but I'm not gonna spend looks, Marcus, do what you want.
I'm not sp I'm not spending my time on this program convincing you or anybody else how to vote.
So don't vote.
Uh 800 nine four one Sean is our number.
Let's go to uh Lola is in Tulsa, Oklahoma, listening to KRMG.
How are you, Lola?
Hi, Sean, how are you today?
I'm good.
What's going on?
Well, okay, so I'm a dog trainer and I train service dogs for people.
Um that's actually how my husband and I met.
Was that he is a hundred percent disabled veteran, and he hired me to train his service dog.
Um it's something that's a very close um issue to my heart.
And uh so I've been following your stuff on Twitter and everything, and I see that you guys are raising a uh little service dog puppy for CCI, which is an awesome word of the city.
Well, it's really Lauren in fairness, it's Lauren that's doing all the hard work, and this is now the second dog, service dog that we have brought into the studio every day, and I enjoy having dogs around us, every one of us in the on the team.
Um we enjoy it as well.
And uh you know, I actually applaud yeah.
And so here's here's why I called.
So um I missed the show, but one of my clients called me and told me that you were talking on the show about teaching the dog to jump up on you.
Yeah, yeah.
You were teaching them to jump up in your lap.
You know that's bad, because you know, they will if she starts jumping on people, you know they'll wash her out of the program, right?
Like if they can't get that broke.
Can I just tell you something?
This dog was jumping way before I came into the picture.
And unlike the previous dog that we had, this dog is uh I I'm not sure if this dog's gonna cut it.
Now uh I did play around a little bit and said, come on, up up just to prove to Lauren that I could make the dog do it and drive her a little crazy, but it's not something that I'm actively trying to teach the dog.
Excuse me, Sean.
Sean, just a little bit.
You are actively encouraging this dog to go crazy.
I did it like three times, but I just did it to prove to you that I had more control over the dog than you did.
No, you're really not a good person.
You know that you're you're a good idea.
No, I'm a hard one.
Listen, it's not that I'm a bad person, it's just that I am a mischievous person and I enjoyed having a little fun.
What are you doing?
You're gonna get that dog kicked out of the program.
It's gonna be on the dog.
I'm not getting the dog kicked out of the program.
It's gonna be on you.
The dog already had the potential to get kicked out of the program long before Sean Hannity came on the scene here, Mr. Wonderful over there.
Well now we know, and Lola backed us all up, and now we're gonna work harder to make sure that little treat no longer jumps.
And we'll all work on it together and she'll be gone.
Please sit, please, pretty, please sit.
And then I go down, dog goes right down.
I say, Sid, it gives give me your paw.
It gives I was proving to you that the dog was listening to me in spite of all of your training.
How long have you had the dog now?
Only two weeks.
It's it's new, okay?
All right, and in and in less than five minutes, I had the dog doing everything I wanted, including jumping up because you didn't do a good job so far.
We will get there.
We are working on it.
Lola, thank you for your help.
I am not actively trying to I am not actively trying to undermine.
I want the service dog to graduate and treat as much what was the other dog's name that we had before.
Motes.
All right, Motes.
I I mean, honestly, this all that dog wanted to do was sist was lay down all day.
That dog didn't want to budge.
You'd make for a great service dog because he's got a big thing.
Yeah, but the dog wasn't that smart either.
I mean, it took Motes forever.
Oh, really?
You're gonna make me get off my comfortable.
It really you deserve to have a lightning strike for the way you're talking about these dogs.
I love dogs.
You know I love dogs.
We all do here on the program, which is a good thing, and I will do anything to help um, you know, the dogs in any way I can.
