	Happy Thursday, and write down our toll-free telephone number.
	We'd love for you to be a part of this extravaganza, and our top story today remains a irrelevant media in a meltdown mode, and a president that is clearly exposing them in ways that nobody ever dreamed.
	And how it is completely boomeranging back on them, just like Comey and his issues are boomeranging back and Muller's conflicts and Obama knowing about Russian meddling, and now people are paying attention to the laws violated and leaking intelligence, raw intelligence in the case of General Flynn and Hillary Clinton's crimes and Loretta Lynch's obstruction.
	It's now everything's beginning to backfire.
	And there's no other way to put this.
	There is now in this country, and I go back to 07 and 08.
	I said journalism is dead.
	And I now you now see an all-out war that has broken out between the destroyed Trump left-wing media and a president of the United States that's just not going to put up with it.
	And by the way, nobody in the media is going to tell you this truth.
	They are at war.
	They are in the business of destroying him.
	They they've been in that business even before the election, and they laughed and they mocked any idea that he could even win.
	And they have earned every single fake news attack that that has been out there and given to them because that's who they are and that is what they are.
	You know, it's the and it's let me tell you where the war started.
	It started with the media.
	The media was in the tank for Hillary Clinton.
	Nobody likes to pay attention to wiki leaks and the revelations that came out.
	Nobody disputes them, but it revealed network after network were involved with and colluding with the Clinton campaign, offering fluffy interviews and and you know, everything and anything in between.
	We got debate questions handed over ahead of time.
	It's cheating.
	You know, how come the media never really paid attention that Hillary Clinton and the DNC rigged, absolutely cheated, robbed Bernie Sanders of a fair shot in the primary.
	How come that is not a big deal to have a rigged primary in uh in an in a presidential election?
	It's a big deal.
	That's a really big deal.
	So it's the media that's declared war against President Trump.
	This is the media that colluded with Hillary.
	They took sides from the get-go.
	Now I want to play a tape.
	Do you remember this is like my favorite tape?
	It's a little long.
	Do you remember in the lead up?
	Donald Trump announcing he's gonna run, the lead up to his announcement, and they were all laughing at him.
	They were all mocking him, ridiculing him.
	The thought, the idea, the notion that Donald Trump could ever be the president of the United States was something to just be ridiculed and mocked.
	Listen.
	Donald Trump just last week he confirmed the National Review that he is again considering a run in 2016.
	Do it.
	Honor publicly brought your counterfighting check now On behalf of this country, which does not want you to be president, but which badly wants you to run.
	Donald Trump has been saying that he will run for president as a Republican, which is surprising since I just assumed he was running as a joke.
	Is that people think that Donald Trump is a clown?
	Yeah, Donald Donald Trump is a clown.
	I mean, does anybody seriously think that Donald Trump is serious about running for president?
	Donald Trump.
	You know, he's a clown.
	Which Republican candidate has the best chance of winning the general election.
	Of the declared ones right now, Donald Trump.
	Thank you.
	President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States.
	Exclamation point at real Donald Trump.
	At real Donald Trump.
	At least I will go down as a president.
	So basically, this is the beginning of the end for Trump.
	Maybe the beginning of the end.
	The beginning of the end.
	This is probably starting of the beginning of the end for Donald Trump.
	Donald, uh, you're not gonna be able to insult your way to the presidency.
	The strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room.
	So right now we have Hillary's about a 75 or an 80% favorite.
	We have different personal has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally, 12 points, 50 to 38, four-way race.
	Clinton leading in Florida.
	Clinton leading in North Carolina, Clinton leading in Ohio, Clinton leading in Nevada.
	I could go on and on and on.
	Trump will not be present.
	And so, right now, Mr. Trump, to answer your call for political honesty, I just want to say you're not gonna be president, all right?
	It's been fun.
	It's overate.
	I love you.
	Come on, come on, buddy.
	We have a major projection right now.
	Donald Trump will take Ohio.
	That's the internet projects.
	Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida.
	Huge win for Donald Trump.
	Donald Trump, while we project will win in Kentucky in Indiana with its 11th electoral votes.
	West Virginia, well, Tennessee, Mississippi, South Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota, uh, with its three electoral votes, and South Dakota, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, the state of Montana, North Carolina, Georgia, Iowa, Utah, Wisconsin, Arizona, Kansas, with its six electoral votes, Nebraska with its five electoral votes, and Wyoming with its three electoral votes.
	Sorry to keep you waiting.
	Complicated business.
	A lot of people have laughed at me over the years.
	Now they're not laughing so much, I'll tell you.
	It's one of the best montages we've ever put together on this program.
	It just tells the whole story.
	I don't even have to explain it.
	And then you might remember on election night.
	I remember tuning in.
	You know, I'm always, I always like to be off election night, and I get my sweatpants on, my baseball hat on backwards, and my t-shirt, and I'm watching multiple TVs and and literally on my computer, non-stop.
	And what I'm doing is um look at Cuyahoga County, Hamilton County, West Palm Beach, Broward County.
	I'm looking all over the the country specifically at vote totals coming in specific counties, trying to figure out who is going to win a state.
	And I have a pretty good track record, by the way, and I have my former boss, Bill Sine will tell you that 99% of the time during the election years we have worked together.
	I have gotten it right before him.
	And before the channel by a long shot.
	And you know, obviously, I don't have the the worry that what we project is gonna be true, but I'm never but we don't get it wrong.
	So anyway, and then then you get to election night.
	North Carolina goes for Donald Trump.
	All of a sudden, then we're watching, and Hillary's thinking, you know, well, we gotta cancel that fireworks display over the Hudson, wherever she was gonna have it.
	And then the media.
	Listen to the media.
	They went into a funk, into a depression.
	I remember I was I my boss begging me to call into the Fox News channel that night.
	I'm like, I don't work election.
	Call in.
	We need you to call in now.
	I said, All right, I'll call in.
	And I explained what this election was about.
	This was about the forgotten men and women in poverty on food stamps and an out-of-the-labour force that can't buy a home with the worst recovery and a lack of safety and security and a disgust over deals like the Iranian deal.
	Wasn't that complicated?
	And of course, you have a challenge candidate that lies with regularity.
	Spontaneous demonstration.
	Lie.
	It was like it was a lie about the emails.
	It's like a lie about the Clinton Pay to Play Foundation.
	So anyway, the media was in their thing.
	Anyway, go let's go to election night.
	Let's listen into the media then.
	People have talked about a miracle.
	I'm hearing about a nightmare.
	This was a white lash.
	This was a whitelash against a changing country.
	It was a whitelash against a black president.
	In part.
	And that's the part where the pain comes.
	Uh, this network devoted years of programming and promotional support to a reality show that was mold breaking for the time and contributed largely to making this uh New York developer, uh uh builder, licensor, landlord, investor, um, uh successful guy into a global celebrity and brand.
	A brand who sells brand name licensed products with his name on it.
	I think some of this cultural anger we should correctly identify as being racial animus, and that it's significant that Trump is that Trump has closed so much of a gap and done so well with white voters.
	The extent to which Donald Trump has won running a campaign of racism and bigotry, turning out millions of white Americans for that campaign suggests that we are living through a kind of second redemption.
	Our country is about to face some serious crises, and so I mean, buckle up.
	Your country needs you.
	Well, America is crying tonight.
	I'm not sure how much of America, but a very, very significant portion, and I mean literally crying.
	This is a sadness.
	It is a a mourning moment for for those people.
	Uh and it is it is a moment filled with fear, filled with fear.
	Tim Kane has a son in the Marine Corps.
	He was asked by John Dr. Dickerson.
	So if Donald Trump is democratically elected and your son is serving as a Marine, you wouldn't trust his life under that commander-in-chief.
	And Cain said, I wouldn't.
	That's a pretty extraordinary thing to say.
	Uh if you have a son in the Marine Corps and that you don't trust the commander-in-chief.
	They the people in the military defend the Constitution.
	And we've talked about excitement among women to have a woman president, but uh there's there's always in these situations at least equal amounts of hostility to that kind of change.
	And the fact that we haven't, you know, that we're seeing this, uh, particularly among non-college educated white men, is not surprising.
	And I think some of it has to be attributed to the fact that that Trump is running against a woman.
	Do the brains that got this.
	So this is where they they went through a depression.
	They first colluded with Hillary, they laughed and mocked the idea that he could win.
	They're depressed the night that he does win, predicting doom and gloom and all sorts of bad things, and then they've gone to war with the president on a daily basis with lies, stories that have to be retracted, conspiracy theories in Uendo.
	They've attacked his his daughter, his wife, his 11-year-old son.
	They've have ISIS poses with the bloodied head of the president.
	They tell the most insane jokes, incest jokes, anything, call this wife a prostitute, and everything and anything in between.
	Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	How many retracted reports of lies?
	And you know, so I I know that probably the president would have been in his best interest not to tweet out about Mika Brzezinski today.
	But these are the same.
	This is the same show that called the president a schmuck and a liar and a thug and mentally unhinged and and advances conspiracies all over this network 24-7.
	And you know, I guess he probably got sick of taking it.
	Probably in his best interest not to do it in my humble opinion, but he did.
	But you know what?
	The media can sure dish it out, but they're a bunch of crybabies that can't handle any pushback.
	They can't.
	You know, tr and here's the bigger truth that I want to get into today.
	They can't handle the truth that Donald Trump does not need them.
	He can reach more Americans with a single tweet than all combined networks and newspapers combined.
	The media never apologized for collusion.
	They've done they've never apologized for false reporting.
	They've doubled down on conspiracies.
	They doubled down on their efforts to remove him from office.
	And by the way, it's really they were insulted by what you, the American people did, because you didn't do what they wanted.
	From number one New York Times bestselling author and radio host Mark R. Levin comes an essential new book Rediscovering Americanism and the Tyranny of Progressivism.
	A searing plea for a return to America's most sacred values.
	Mark R. Levin revisits the founders' warnings about the perils of overreach by the federal government and concludes that the men who created our country would be outraged and disappointed to see where we've ended up.
	Levin asks, how do we save our exceptional country?
	Because our values are in such a precarious state, he argues that a restoration to the essential truths on which our country was founded has never been more urgent.
	And understanding these principles can serve as the antidote to tyrannical regimes and governments.
	Rediscovering Americanism is not an exercise in nostalgia, but an appeal to his fellow citizens to reverse course for the sake of our children and our children's children.
	Rediscovering Americanism and the Tyranny of Progressivism by Mark R. Levin.

	I-25 to the top of the hour.
	800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program.
	What are you telling me, Linda?
	I'm not watching CNN.
	I'm watching the Fox News show.
	Oh, we're actually we're actually gonna tweet this out, but um, we just in the studio here, Ethan looked up and he's like, You got to see this, and I look up.
	So everybody knows you're not watching CNN.
	You have four TVs in there like I do in my own.
	Yes, we do.
	We we have Ford's TVs and and we're watching everyone at the same time.
	But uh it had a break between your room and my room, which is a day adjacent, uh, I think we've got fifteen computers and eight television sets.
	That's correct.
	Well actually working here.
	But I didn't put CNN on to that.
	I didn't want to see it.
	I mean, listen, I've decided to spare you the trouble, and we'll do the hard work over here of painfully watching.
	I'll let you watch, you know, uh the the the propaganda media, the destroy Trump media.
	It's definitely one of the harder parts of my job.
	But they had a very funny Chiron as our president speaks at the American Energy Summit and he says, uh it says breaking news.
	Trump speaks after tweeting attack on female anchor.
	It's like really he's speaking about coal, gasoline, and I I will say, and I'm a big now supporter.
	I was a convert on the issue of the president tweeting.
	In the beginning, I was like, stop, stop tweeting, stop.
	You're killing yourself, stop.
	Why are you tweeting?
	And he definitely has made mistakes.
	I thought it was a mistake, remember when he tweeted out the picture of uh Heidi Cruz and tweeted out a picture of Melania, and you know, there's been a few tweets that have, you know, been off on his part, but the 90% of them I think are very, very effective.
	Now, do I think he should even care about what Mika and Joe do?
	Absolutely not.
	I don't think he should watch their show or even pay attention to these people.
	Um, and was the story true?
	I don't know the extent of it.
	I I was told by somebody else that in fact Mika and Joe were there at the time the president said, I guess around New Year's Eve, and they weren't he wasn't interested in seeing them down at Mar-a-Lago, and uh apparently she had had something I don't know what had happened, some I don't know if it what it was, some kind of of surgery, and I don't know what it was, but and I'm not gonna speculate, nor do I really care, nor is it any of my business, to be honest.
	But you know, this is not all in a vacuum.
	So I would say, yeah, the president should ignore them, shouldn't have tweeted.
	Now it gives, you know, these people something to to hammer him about.
	But you know what?
	These are the same people that never wanted him to win, colluded with Hillary Clinton as I have been saying.
	They are the same people that laughed at the idea he could win.
	They are the same people that were depressed on election night, and then there's the same people that ever since election night have been doing everything within their power to take him down.
	And I don't see any outrage when they attack the eleven-year-old son of the president or the daughter of the president or the wife of the president.
	I don't see a whole lot of retraction when they lie and are caught lying.
	I don't see any any anger on their part or any Self you know, some type of self-examination, introspection as to why it is they get so much wrong, and if they could see their inherent bias, maybe maybe they could change things around.
	I don't think they have the capacity to do it.
	I think they have all just bet on the idea that he is not going, that they're gonna try everything they can do to take him down.
	And so, yeah, I guess the president probably shouldn't, considering his position of hit back.
	True or not true, it doesn't matter because now the media is just now given another thing to attack him on.
	But I guess I'd be frustrated if people mock the idea that I could win or depressed on the night that I did win, or being part of a network like Joe and Mika that advances, you know, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia lies every night, and they never retract the lies, and they're in the business almost 24-7 of trying to take him down.
	Now, with that said, I mean, you know, could we all just act like we're not so outraged all the time?
	You know, have an we have an outrage industry in this country.
	Oh, I'm so offended.
	Ugh, I've got the vapors.
	I'm so offended that somebody said something horrible about me.
	I can't handle it.
	Okay.
	They're all full of crap.
	This is selective moral outrage.
	I don't think anybody is that outraged over what the president said.
	And I think you've got feigning of outrage, and these crybabies in the media, they can't take even the slightest bit of pushback.
	You know, I didn't cry when President Obama said that he's gonna put Mr. Burgess up against me and tear me up.
	I, you know, we made fun of it.
	We had fun with it, but I wasn't feigning outrage over it.
	I was just having fun with it.
	That was pretty good.
	I might have to put Mr. Burgess on Fox News.
	I'll put uh I'll put I'll put Mr. Burgess up against uh Sean Hannity.
	He'll tear him up.
	And I was making the point is that some type of physical threat that Obama was making, and it wasn't a physical threat.
	And I knew exactly what Obama meant, but we had fun with it.
	But a bigger truth that the media can't handle is Trump doesn't need him anymore.
	You know, he doesn't need to trust or deal with these propaganda outlets anymore.
	He can reach more people on his own through his own social media access.
	You know, the media, they've never taken responsibility for collusion, false reporting, the conspiracy theory reporting.
	You know, what do I say needs to be investigated?
	They're not investigating James Comey in a violation of the Records Act by leaking to the New York Times and maybe leaking at other times.
	They're not looking at the conflicts of interest of the special counsel Mueller and his relationship with Comey and what did he say to Comey before Comey testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
	They're not looking at Rosenstein now moving on from Russia collusion because there's no evidence.
	Well, let's move on and let's look at obstruction and let's look at the finances of others.
	They don't want to look into any of this.
	You know, does anybody want to pay any attention to the idea that Obama himself was the one that knew about Russia meddling in August and didn't lift a finger just because for political purposes, he thought Hillary Eddett was a shoe-in.
	He didn't think that Donald Trump was going to win.
	And he even said the idea, the notion in October, late October, October 16th, the notion, the idea that anyone could could influence our election is a joke.
	But but the larger point that I want to emphasize here is that there is no serious person out there who would suggest somehow that you could even you could even rig America's elections in part because they're so decentralized.
	And the numbers of votes involved.
	There's no evidence that that has happened in the past or that there are instances in which that will happen this time.
	And so uh I'd advise Mr. Trump to stop whining and go try to make his case to get votes.
	Okay, stop whining.
	Okay, made his case, he got votes, and he won.
	You know, let's cut the crap here.
	And I'm just saying, you know, are we gonna look into Obama?
	What about Loretta Lynch's obstruction?
	I'm gonna tell you a big deal.
	Hillary Clinton given 20% of the foundational material in America, uranium, foundational material for nuclear weapons, to Vladimir.
	There, you got a Russia conspiracy.
	And she got millions of dollars kicked back to the to the Clinton Foundation.
	Oh, excuse me.
	I don't see anybody in the media upset about the selective leaking within the deep state every leak is designed to hurt the president.
	Just like the one thing Comey never leaked was the exculpatory information that Trump was not being investigated after he told the president three times on CNN said, Oh, he's going to contradict him.
	And that's another story they had to retract.
	And or you got the Democratic Party from day one talking about impeachment.
	Nobody expected this victory.
	Nobody seems to be able to handle this victory.
	You got a media that is more biased and corrupt than it has ever been.
	And they have no credibility.
	And I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
	You've got a bunch of lazy, overpaid, rigidly ideological, partisan propaganda hacks all over the media that are that are watching their relevancy or what they thought was relevancy now evaporate before their very eyes, and they're literally melting, you know, like snow on a sunny day on a hot summer sunny day.
	So my message to the White House would be this ignore it.
	Ignore these people in the media.
	They don't like you, they never liked you, they don't support you, they never supported you.
	They lie about you daily.
	And as far as Joe and Mika, let them call you a schmuck, a liar, a thug, question your mental competency, you know, create these creepy music videos that these two lunatics have created.
	Let them do whatever they're gonna do.
	Don't give them the time of day.
	That would be my advice to the president, the White House on hit on them.
	You know, they're bragging, oh, we've had the best second quarter.
	Their ratings suck.
	I look at their ratings every day.
	I don't even think they get a one share.
	And it's and in the demo, they get like next to nothing.
	Nobody's watching them.
	The only people that watch them are their guests.
	The fifth same 15 people.
	America's not in love with Joe and Mika.
	I can promise you that.
	And Joe's become, you know, unhinged more and more so every day.
	And you know, the faces that these two make and the emotional breakdowns that you see in the morning are just way beyond bizarre.
	The American people, I think, look at the polls that have come out.
	They figured out the media's against the people.
	They've figured out that the media doesn't like the way the people voted in this election.
	You know, you let the media continue to have their little temper tantrums.
	They can spin their new conspiracy theories.
	They can continue to bubble and fizz and let off steam like Alcus Elzer and Water.
	And they can continue down their ideological leftist path because it's leading them towards total and complete irrelevancy.
	That's what's happening.
	That's that's that's it in a nutshell.
	They are fake news.
	They are at war with the president.
	They don't want truth to be told.
	You know, and I noticed that, you know, because the president has actually fought back effectively.
	Well, now their brand name recognition is in the toilet.
	On top of that, they're losing viewership.
	The trust level has never been lower for the media.
	You know, now they're saying oh, the president's saying we're fake news.
	This is dangerous.
	Dangerous for the country.
	You can't say the media is an enemy of the people.
	It was actually Steve Bannon who said that.
	Yeah, because they're at war with the American people and not willing to tell the American people the truth.
	Putting journalists in danger.
	Well, maybe you're putting the president's life in danger by lying about him all the time.
	And maybe the constant lying, you know, if we're going to take this logic to its completion, then we've got to now examine Alexandria, Virginia and the incendiary rhetoric leading up to that.
	If that's where you people on the left want to go.
	I just, you know, for the life of me, I can't believe these people can dish it out, but they cannot take it.
	One of the reasons I punch and hit so hard back is and these people don't want to fight with me.
	They cannot handle it.
	None of them can.
	And, you know, there's so many different stories on uh on a lot of these people that I don't even begin to tell you about.
	Which I maybe I should.
	I don't know.
	You have another major publication having to retract two anti-Trump stories.
	Vice Media had to retract two stories that the president and the White House was feuding With Disney World Management.
	Here's the secret backstage Trump drama at Walt Disney World Hall of the Presidents.
	The Vice Media motherboard site reported on May 19th.
	A month later, the outlet published a second piece, same headline, Beyond the Scenes of Disney's Donald Trump Hall of Presidents installation.
	Both stories claim that there was a behind-the-scenes drama, an internal battle about whether Trump would have a speaking role in the Disney Hall of the Presidents.
	And according to original stories, Disney and the Trump team were butting heads over what was a, you know, the way that Trump would, you know, what he would say at the conclusion of the attraction.
	That turns out not to be true.
	Listen, you know what?
	These people have done it to themselves.
	They have killed themselves.
	They have destroyed any trust that they can have with you in this country.
	And yeah, they're unhinged.
	And yeah, they're they're bordering on psychotic.
	And yeah, they're they're totally alienated from any truth in their reporting.
	It's now basically all lies and conspiracies.
	Throw anything up a wall, up against the wall, see if it sticks.
	As long as it's not the border wall, because they sure as hell don't want that.
	By the way, you know, just certain things that the American people want.
	Certain things the American people voted for.
	And as they distract the president daily, well, that prevents him from doing the job that the American people elected him to do.
	And the failing New York Times has now been forced to implement a new round of layoffs just to keep itself afloat.
	Is it any shock there?
	Nobody trusts them.
	A Twitter audit found that CNN has millions of fake followers.
	Shocking there, too.
	More fake news.
	Just like they send out the story.
	Oh, we've had three people resign on the same day.
	I don't believe any one of them resigned.
	I don't believe a single one of those people resigned.
	Not one.
	Anyway, Senator Grassley says the FBI may have deliberately targeted General Flynn.
	Well, that would be the deep state.
	A Democrat running against Debbie Wasserman Schultz calls for uh some information from her that ought to be interesting.
	We'll get to all of this today.
	We got New Kingrich at the top of the hour.
	We got Ami Horowitz.
	He actually goes around at a white privilege uh conference asking what it is.
	And then he goes into uh uh asks African Americans, black Americans, what they think of it.
	It's an interesting follow-up.
	Lou Dobbs will join us.
	Jonathan Gillam will get a lot of your calls in 800-941 Sean.
	All right, a lot coming up.
	We'll talk about the media.
	Newt Gingrich will check in with us.
	We'll talk about the forces that are lining up against the president as the president fights back.
	He's winning.
	The media is on defense.
	Everybody else in the deep state on defense.
	Democrats have no identity.
	Should they keep or hire Pelosi?
	Also, Jonathan Gillam, Ami Harwitz, Lou Dobbs, all coming up.
	This edition, Sean Hannity show will continue.
	Jim, the White House likes to attack the media for not paying attention to the good things, but oftentimes the agenda is overshadowed by the president's own affinity for uh peddling fake news, right?
	Uh, that's right.
	And I just very quickly want to echo what David Chalion was saying.
	I think that uh the White House, the President also handled the Justice Gorsuch uh uh matter uh very well.
	Uh that from start to finish was handled uh extremely well by this White House.
	They did not put forward a nominee uh who was uh scandal-ridden or anything along those lines.
	But you're right, Don when it comes to, and the president likes to tweet about this all the time and hit us uh calling us fake news, but let's just put something on screen here to put things in perspective.
	The president of the United States is also a purveyor of fake news.
	Uh, and I shouldn't say also, like we are.
	He is himself a purveyor of fake news.
	He is the founding father of birtherism, the the claim that President Obama, the false claim that President Obama was born in another country, President Obama was born in Hawaii.
	He came out uh right after his inauguration and said his inauguration crowds were bigger than President Obama's when they weren't, and that we had photographic evidence from the National Park Service to prove that point.
	He alleged that millions of undocumented people voted against him and gave Hillary Clinton the popular vote uh in the 2016 election.
	Uh the White House is just finally cobbling together a voter fraud uh commission that is going to investigate this at the end of the day, Don.
	They're going to find out there was not millions of people voting fraudulently in this country, as we all know.
	Uh, he accused President Obama of wiretapping him at Trump Tower, as we followed that saga for several weeks.
	It started off as a claim of wiretapping, then it became overall surveillance, and then they were hitting Susan Rice for unmasking people improperly, uh, and then never produce any kind of evidence of wiretapping a Trump Tower.
	And then he hinted at those James Comey tapes that never existed.
	And I think, Don, this is the reason why the president has only held one news conference, one full news conference since coming into office, that one in February.
	It's because if he holds a news conference, we're going to ask all of these questions.
	There you have a Jim.
	I'm so angry, I'm so bitterly biased, acosta and upset that the president doesn't bow and scrape.
	And you know, my point that I've been making here about the the news media and how unhinged they are, they they have earned the the name of the president, which is very fake news.
	They've earned it.
	You know, uh and and there's a certainly a war that has now broken out between the destroyed Trump media and the president.
	But the war was started by the media.
	Those same people that colluded with Hillary Clinton.
	They took sides from the get-go.
	You know, they laughed at the idea that Trump could win.
	You know, they were depressed on election night.
	And ever since, you know, it's been nothing but nonstop conspiracy theories in UND, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	They've even attacked his daughter, the first lady, and an eleven-year-old kid.
	And, you know, we've had the NBC, you got him, the president in the morning being called a schmuck, a liar, a thug, and mentally unhinged.
	You got Matt Ow conspiracies, you got CNN lies and conspiracies.
	You know, how many retracted reports by the so-called paper of record, the New York Times, the Washington Post.
	You know, now you've got media being a bunch of crybabies, they can't handle the pushback.
	And the bigger truth they can't handle is that the president does not need them.
	You know, why should he, at this point, with all that they have done, trust them when they lie about him continually?
	And he can reach more Americans with a single tweet, one application of social media than than every combined network correspondent and newspaper in the country.
	The media's never apologized for collusion.
	They've never apologized for false reporting.
	They've doubled down on their conspiracies.
	They ignore what should be real investigation, the the six things I've been saying every day.
	And you have a bunch of lazy, overpaid, rigidly ideological partisans in the propaganda media, and they are watching their relevancy evaporate before their very eyes.
	So my message to the president is ignore them and keep going directly to the American people.
	And the American people have figured out they can't be trusted.
	And they can throw their temper tantrums and spin their new conspiracy theories and bubble and fizz like Alka Saltz, or as I mentioned earlier, and continue down the ideological leftist path towards irrelevancy.
	Because that's what's happening.
	Anyway, New Kingrich is here.
	His best selling book, number one New York Times, is uh out.
	It's called Understanding Trump.
	Um this has now hit, I think, a tipping point with the media and the president.
	Um I'm not sure I would have advised him to tweet out what he did to Mika and Joe today.
	I think, you know, that's one of the ten percent of tweets that end up in the mistake column, in my opinion.
	I think that's right.
	But let me give you a parallel that just came out in the last few minutes, uh, that I'm so st struck by that I really was looking forward to the show because I want to share this with all of our audience.
	Two guys, Josh Archambeau and uh Jonathan Ingram just published in Forbes um a article that says that the real CBO numbers are totally different.
	Totally different than the numbers they released on the Senate bill.
	Uh a couple quick examples.
	They said the Senate bill would have seven million fewer people in uh the individual health insurance market, and yet that missed all the changes that have occurred in between.
	Their own data doesn't say so.
	They say five million people are gonna lose Medicaid expansion coverage, but that's in states that never expanded Medicaid in the first place.
	So those five million come out of the twenty-two million we've been taught the press has been talking about.
	They say, um, another seven million are projected to lose Medicaid coverage because the individual mandate goes away, but the individual mandate doesn't apply to people on Medicaid.
	And they go, these guys take this thing.
	This is such a bad report, such a hit piece.
	This is more of what you're talking about.
	Here's the Congressional Budget office as part of the deep state doing a hit job on the Senate Republicans, and this is one more case for why the Republican Congress ought to have the guts to hold hearings, bring in the CBO experts, force them to explain how they screwed up so too totally, because when you read this article, which is just came out in Forbes this morning.
	This is crazy.
	I mean I mean, here you have this so-called neutral congressional budget office.
	All of the headlines that they created in the last few days pounding on the Republicans, they're all lies.
	They're all false.
	They're all the th there is no excuse for this for for them to have been this this wrong.
	And it's astonishing how wrong they are.
	And this is the kind of thing you're talking about, where every time you turn around, somebody in Washington, whether they're in the news media or the bureaucracy or a think tank or in a college campus, somebody is saying things that aren't true that then get picked up by the elite media and keep getting repeated.
	It's it's just crazy.
	It it it's as bad as I've ever seen.
	Well, now because Trump is fighting back, that it started with the Atlantic and it's now spreading.
	And you know, I'd like what you said about well, CNN should have their own independent council to investigate their fake news scandal.
	But now the media narrative is, oh, Donald Trump is fighting back.
	This is very dangerous to call the media an enemy of the people.
	Well, it's an enemy because they're lying to the American people.
	Lying to the American people with the platforms that we that they have been given by the American people is a disgrace.
	They it's a disservice to the people that they are supposed to be serving.
	And you know, this this declaration that this war on the media has, you know, is emboldening war zones and the Atlantic editor in chief is he's gonna be responsible for violence against journalists.
	Um it seems to me, rather than have a real long hard look in the mirror at their ideological bent and trying to rectify what has gone dramatically wrong in newsrooms all across the country and being called out and exposed, they just keep doubling down on attacking the president.
	And I'm my argument is I don't think he needs them anymore.
	I think I think look, I think that's right, but but let me go a step further.
	It'll be interesting to see if any of the elite media cover the fact that all of the CBO numbers they've been using are wrong.
	That the Republican bill's dramatically better than this government bureaucracy score, which now turns out to be so stupid and so fake.
	Yeah that again I I'm just gonna repeat what I've said before.
	One of the steps Republicans ought to do to clean up the swamp is abolish the Congressional Budget Office.
	This report is just crazy.
	And when you get this across the whole system, you have bureaucrat after bureaucrat who wants Trump to fail.
	I mean, let's let's not kid yourselves.
	You know, there are a wide range of people out there uh who voted for Hillary, who gave money to Hillary, who hoped Hillary would win.
	Uh, they don't want to to serve the President of the United States, they want to undermine him, slow him down, give him bad advice, uh, and do everything they can to make sure he can't implement his program.
	Well, I think that in in many ways that you got the deep state, you got Democrats that want them to fail.
	Deep state selective leaking has been brutal to the president, and is even more coming as I understand it in in in the next week or so.
	Well, yeah, I mean, we're even getting tipped off when it's coming, which is ridiculous.
	So then you got the media, which has their own agenda, that they never paid a price for collusion with Hillary.
	Then you've got Republicans that never like Trump to begin with, and then you got never Trumpers that are just dying to his to gain back relevance and say, see, we were right.
	That's a lot of enemies for any one president to have.
	Well, but you know, if if you're gonna be as bold as he has been, remember, he he took on the entire Republican establishment and won the nomination.
	He pivoted, took on the the anointed leader who'd been around trying to win presidency for a long time, her billion dollar campaign, which means all of her allies who gave her the money, and the elite media.
	Uh and so th this is the the biggest outsider takeover of government uh I think we've seen since uh Andrew Jackson and in eighteen twenty eight.
	I mean, I don't think we've seen anything like it.
	And of course, the system's fighting back.
	I mean, you can't blame the system for fighting back.
	Trump represents the end of their values, the end of their vision of of a uh bigger government, higher taxes, weaker economy, smaller military, um, you know, more irrelevant America.
	I mean, from the standpoint of the left, Donald Trump is their worst nightmare.
	So I don't blame them for fighting.
	Our job is to mobilize and rally the American people and beat them.
	Well, I think that that certainly has happened, and I think that's why you see the president so effective when he goes on the road, and then that's that was the magic of Trump, wasn't it?
	Isn't this the magic that was and the magic that is him?
	And that's why that's that's why I personally believe he should do one rally uh every ten days.
	I think that's probably a good good strategy.
	I think that's a good idea, and I think he enjoys it, and I think the people enjoy seeing him.
	I mean, you watch the the meltdown, the daily meltdown now in the in the press room, and is it gonna be recorded, not be recorded?
	Are you are you know, and the hostility that exists in that room towards him?
	And I gotta be honest, I mean, if what's the point of him dealing with hostility all day if he can be going directly to the American people and answering their questions?
	Right.
	I mean it's the truth is he's in a great position to um go out uh and to communicate more directly.
	He's he's really built on what Reagan did.
	Reagan built on on uh Franklin Dona Roosevelt's use of radio.
	Nob nobody's really done it between Roosevelt and Reagan.
	Reagan turned it into an institution, so every every president since has done the savvy radio address.
	Now, Trump is moving into the next cycle of technology, and he's using Facebook and Twitter and other kind of social media in a way that's quite quite impressive.
	Yeah, it really is.
	All right, Mr. Speaker, thanks for being with us.
	We appreciate it.
	Former Speaker of the House, New Kingrich, 800-941 Sean is our toll-free telephone number.
	We'll hit your phones, hit the phones when we get back.
	Your calls are coming up next.
	And as we roll along, Sean Hannity show, toll-free telephone numbers 800-941 Sean.
	You want to be a part of this extravaganza.
	My buddy Lou Dobbs at the bottom of the half hour.
	Jonathan Gillum, Army Horowitz are coming up.
	A lot of your calls coming up today, but uh like for example, we shall say hi to Joe is in Los Angeles, California on KEIB.
	What's going on, Joe?
	How are you?
	Good, Sean.
	How are you today?
	I'm good, sir.
	What's happening?
	Hey, not much.
	I hey, by the way, a great job out there.
	I really we love it and we appreciate it, all your hard work.
	But I have really uh two quick, really good questions for you.
	Number one is uh why is the Trump administration dragging their feet on getting rid of these Obama holdovers in the intelligence community community?
	And my second question is why doesn't Donald Trump just sign an executive order to have these seventeen agencies stop talking to each other?
	If tr if if Obama signed it in for them to talk, why can't he just sign it out?
	That's a great question.
	I think he can, I think he needs to.
	That needs to be done.
	As it relates to the holdovers, deep state operatives, um, and I'm not making excuses.
	It should have been done earlier.
	I want to be clear.
	But I do know, Linda knows, we have discussed it.
	There are now the right people seemingly in place with the plan that is gonna clean this mess up.
	And that is that is that is as much as I can pass on to you.
	Because there are people that know how to clean it up.
	There are people that know who these people are.
	These people can be identified, and they are being identified, and they are gonna go.
	So it just I don't think they anticipated this.
	I'll be honest.
	I think it hit them like a a ton of bricks, and then figuring out what was happening took them time more than I would have liked, and getting their act together and having to deal with the force of nature that is the deep state.
	It's it's been hard and it is hard, and it is difficult, and you're not probably gonna get everybody, but you're gonna get a lot of them.
	Okay, do you have time for one more quick question?
	Yeah, sure.
	D do you think what scares me about this whole Mollar investigation and the deep state?
	I mean, these these are the same people that that despise John F. Kennedy and we know what ended up happening there.
	What really scares me is is the planning of evidence if they try to plant evidence to to to just dream up some sort of like crime that happened that didn't happen.
	I mean, this is pretty scary stuff.
	Look, I I mean there are evil people in the world.
	I I I think when you have within your own government, those people that think that they own a branch of government that constitutionally they don't have, that's you know, you're bordering now on potential police state.
	If if you have people that you give the responsibility and the tools to defend the American people and the weaponry, especially as it relates to surveillance and intelligence gathering, and that weaponry is used against the American people, and it's as I said, a soft coup in in other words.
	You just have to you have to fight to prevent it from happening.
	You know, I mean, yeah, I but you you've got to worry at all times.
	There's always been will always be darkness and evil in this world, and for good to prevail, they've got to be forever vigilant.
	And you know, I I hope and I pray that nothing of which I think you're suggesting is possible, but I know the truth is anything's possible, sadly.
	All right, 800-941 Sean, toll free telephone number.
	You want to be a part of the program.
	Lou Dobbs, when we get back, we'll get to more of your calls.
	A very important, hard-hitting Hannity tonight.
	The media is no longer needed in this country.
	I'll explain Ten Eastern.
	Uh but Mr. Clapper then went on to say that to his knowledge there was no evidence of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians.
	We did not conclude any evidence in our report.
	And when I say our report, that is the NSA, FBI, and CIA with my office.
	The director of National Intelligence had anything, any reflection of collusion between the members of Trump campaign and the Russians.
	There was no evidence of that in our report.
	Was Mr. Clapper wrong when he said that?
	I think he's right uh about characterizing the report, which you you all have read.
	We did not include any evidence in our report, and I say our that's NSA, FBI and CIA with my office, the director of National Intelligence, that had anything that had any reflection of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians.
	There was no evidence of that included in our report.
	Have you seen anything, either intelligence briefings through intelligence briefings, anything to back up any of the accusations that you've made?
	They have the documentation that they did the hacking.
	The hacking.
	On the DNC.
	Right.
	And on some of us, you know, that have been.
	But the collusion, though.
	No, we have not.
	Do you have evidence that there was in fact collusion between Trump associates and Russia during the campaign?
	Not at this time.
	Have you seen anything that suggests any collusion between the Russians and the Trump campaign?
	Well, there's an awful lot of smoke there, let's put it that way.
	People that might have said they were involved, to what extent they were involved, to what extent the president might have known about these people or whatever.
	There's nothing there from that standpoint that we have seen directly linking our president to any of that.
	Did evidence exist of collusion coordination conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russian state actors at the time you learned of 2016 efforts.
	I don't know whether or not such collusion, that's your term, such collusion existed.
	I don't know.
	The big questions, of course, is is there any evidence of collusion you have seen yet?
	Is there?
	There is a lot of smoke.
	We haven't smoking gun at this point, but there is a lot of smoke.
	Diane Feinstein has said there's no evidence of collusion.
	So collusion between whom?
	Can you tell us that?
	I'm not prepared to say that there's proof you could take to a jury, but I can't say that there is enough that we ought to be investigating.
	At the time you separated from service in January of 2017, had you seen any evidence that uh Donald Trump or any member of his campaign colluded, conspired, or coordinated with the Russians or anyone else to infiltrate or impact our uh voter infrastructure.
	Um not beyond uh what has been out there open source, and not beyond anything that I'm sure this committee has already seen and heard before directly from the intelligence community.
	No matter how often we have heard no evidence, no evidence, no evidence.
	You know, everybody from Mark Warner to Diane Feinstein to Maxime Waters to Joe Manchin to the intelligence community and and Comey and Clapper and Brennan and Admiral Rogers and everybody else.
	We've had eleven months of nonstop hysteria in the news media today.
	And you know, with now the news media, oh, the president he's gotta stop calling us fake news.
	This is creating an environment that is incendiary.
	Okay, well, the same media that colluded with Hillary Clinton, never apologized.
	The same media that retracts almost daily, the same media that clearly evidently has an ideological bias bent to try and drive him out of office with lies and conspiracy theories.
	And now they can't handle a little bit of pushback.
	They've been they're nothing short of propaganda outlets, and this is one of the biggest issues ever.
	Anyway, here to weigh in on this and more, and he's got a brand new book out.
	My friend, my colleague at the Fox Business Network, a frequent he makes frequent appearances on my show, but he never invites me on his show.
	Lou Dobbs, Lou Dobbs tonight.
	How are you?
	Putin's Gambit, congratulations on the book.
	Thank you, Sean, and I can't wait to talk with you tonight on my show.
	I I I look forward to that.
	I didn't know I was being I didn't know I was invited on your show tonight.
	Well, I didn't I uh you're gonna get invited every day now.
	Oh, but I I'll come every day.
	I love being on your show.
	I mean, you have the highest rated show on your network and uh and well deserved.
	You know, you and I uh it's funny because this I I've only begun to start your book because you know how busy we all are in this business, and this is a novel, but I do have a few days off of vacation, and that this is my book that I'm gonna be reading, and I just started it, but it's really an international thriller about a KGB plot to use terrorist attacks as a cover for the Russian military and their incursion into Estonia.
	You know, by the way, this is not stuff that is beyond the realm of reality.
	Yeah, this is this is really uh there's a historic pathway for Vladimir Putin to uh reconstitute the uh the fallen Soviet Union in his own image uh to take those former uh union of uh uh Soviet Socialist Republics and and make them the new and modern Russia.
	And people forget uh, you know, I I love people who attack Trump uh right now, Sean, as if he doesn't understand Russia.
	He alone amongst the presidential candidates last year understood Russia and how much of a threat they posed to the United States.
	It's why he wanted positive.
	It was Obama who didn't get it when he was debating Romney.
	Remember that?
	Absolutely.
	But naturally, of course, that's what people would focus on uh is uh you know Trump and then try to create the big lie that he's colluding with the uh Russians when in fact what he's trying to do is create a stable and productive positive relationship with Putin and the Russian government.
	That's because, by the way, they uh they the lap never mentions this.
	That's because Russia has seventeen hundred and fifty deployed nuclear warheads on ICBNs, whether in their uh submarines or on ground bases, uh it's madness because the United States and Russia are the only two countries in the world that could destroy the earth in 24 hours.
	Yeah.
	What do you make?
	I mean, I keep saying we have journalism dead, information crisis.
	You see, everything that happened this week with CNN and then they were exposed.
	Yeah, this one producer that's saying, oh yeah, we're only doing Russia for ratings, where they know it's a phony story, but we're doing it anyway.
	And then Van Jones saying privately, yeah, there's nothing to the Russia story, but then saying something very different to his audience on CNN on the air.
	And I'm thinking, you know, add to that the the conspiracy theories of NBC and then all the articles that had to be retracted by every news organization, including print, and add to that the collusion before the election, and I'm like, why does anybody trust these people at this point?
	Well, there's no reason in the world that they should trust the the principal outlets of the national left wing media, uh whether it's the Washington Post, the New York Times, ABC, CBSNBC, uh MSNBC, or CNN.
	I I mean that is a rogues gallery of political activists posing as journalists.
	And they are nothing more uh than, as you put it, adjafrop and propaganda.
	Uh each one of them could have a hyphen prompta uh uh next to their name and and be closer to uh accurately describing what they're doing each day.
	Yeah, it's true.
	You know, what do you make of, for example, did you think the president he tweeted out against Mika Brzezinski now on the Liberal Morning Joe show that nobody really watches, isn't it an amazing thing?
	Are you as perplexed as I am that a show that has never really gotten any ratings in the history of the show?
	No, I'm serious.
	They have gotten more press coverage than any other show in the history of cable news, and they've got the worst ratings of any show in the history of cable news.
	And you know, here they're out there calling the president a schmuck, a liar, a thug.
	Daily they're suggesting he's mentally unbalanced and unhinged.
	Now they've come out with this ridiculous creepy music video, you know, which is like an anthem against the president, and I'm thinking these people are bizarre.
	They are bizarre, and really it's it's just a swirling sustool uh at MSNBC of left-wing fantasies, and and they are let's not there's no way to uh just simply say this is a media uh that is gone mad here.
	This is MSNBC.
	This is NBC.
	This is CNN, Time Warner, Comcast, and the major corporations that the issued orders for these outlets to act as they are.
	This is the establishment and the leads, whether they're Hollywood, whether they're entertainment media, they are attacking the man who took them on President Donald J. Trump, and it is going to be a it is a a fight to I I truly believe to a final uh resolution, uh a fight to the death.
	You and I have both been critical of Congress and the Republicans, you know, I say they're spineless and weak and they lack urgency and a commitment to the very principles that they said they would be beholden to.
	And we're we're even having a hard time getting the uh health care bill a repeal and replace bill.
	We had a hundred Republican senators that we learned never had any intention of actually repealing it and replacing it.
	So the Freedom Caucus had to best navigate under those circumstances.
	They did the best they can and I know Ted Cruz and and s Mike Lee and Rand Paul and a few others are trying to do the best they can in the Senate but you got you know very weak senators there as well but now it was supposed to be done before the Fourth of July.
	Now they're talking maybe before the August recess and then they're talking about a Fourth of July recess then an August recess I mean who takes this much vacation?
	Uh only the uh the U.S. Senate not even the House can approach them.
	Uh they haven't paid attention Sean to the new reality in town and that is a president who works twenty four seven three hundred and sixty five days a year.
	His work ethic uh if everybody wants to criticize him, attack him for whatever it may be, why not launch him for the things that he does so well.
	He has brilliantly turned the economy he has turned the national focus and to be an an agenda that is positive that's moving.
	Uh he has uh moved government uh into a energy level that was un it was unfathomable just a year ago uh or for decades before that the idea that this man has to put up with this nonsense to me you know someday Sean people are going to wonder why he didn't just say you know the hell with all of you why should I go through this aggravation when I've got to put up every day with Mitch McConnell Paul Ryan.
	Paul Ryan today comes out with a comment about the Mika Brzezinski comment by the president.
	Who the hell is the Speaker of the House and why would he be involved at all and what gives him some sort of uh delusional right uh to make comments uh on the president's uh language statements or whatever uh just I I mean I can't believe the way Republican Party leadership is behaving whether it's the opportunity of a lifetime and if they don't get their ass moving it's gonna be a blown opportunity of a lifetime.
	All right Lou Dobbs Fox Business Network every night at seven PM and often on uh Hannity on the Fox News channel his brand new book is called Putin's Gambit it's in bookstores everywhere and it is a novel it's gonna be great for reading over the summer uh sir thank you for being with us we always appreciate your time and being with us thanks for never inviting me on your show I really appreciate it.

	Just want to thank you so much for allowing me the privilege to listen to you for years and watch Hannity and Combs and what you're doing for our country.
	But I want to ask you, what is the martial arts that you have, I don't know how long you've done it, but I've heard about it recently.
	How do you think that has changed your life and shape sharpness uh with it with your busy schedule and how you how you utilize that and and what do you think we can do to spread uh the martial arts and physical activity to the rest of our our youth that are kind of like stuck on Twitter and computers and games and stuff.
	You know you're asking me a a question.
	I'm glad to answer it because it's transformed my life and I'm not overstating it.
	I'm the strongest I've ever been in my life physically mentally it helps all of these things.
	Um it uh I do an eclectic blend of arts.
	I've I've got a guy that has spent forty years of his life.
	He is probably the strongest, toughest guy that I've ever met.
	He's my sensei, and his name is Glenn Rubin.
	And it's sort of under the banner of street martial arts.
	And and basically it's situational arts that if somebody, you know, if somebody gets in my grill, puts a finger in my face, grabs my collar, somebody comes up from behind, somebody that has a blade or a firearm or a weapon of any kind.
	Uh it's how do I react and defend myself?
	It's also strength building, core building, and I do a hundred sit-ups a day, a hundred push-ups a day in various forms.
	Uh we do very I don't do a lot of lifting, but I've done some lifting, barbell lifting.
	And but and but more importantly, it gives you a strength and a confidence that I'm pretty confident that I can get out of any situation I'm in and effectively win a fight in 30 seconds or less.
	Now it doesn't matter on the persons.
	That's absolutely outstanding.
	And, you know, it would be nice to be able to get the rest of our country to be able to buy into that instead of being so stuck in the high-tech world.
	Well, you know, it's something you gotta want to do.
	I mean, part of it is pain management and and training and the calcification of you know, if you're throwing elbows and putting people in chokes, and it's it's it's real life, real situational, really hard fighting.
	And I like it, and it's a challenge, and I've gotten better at it.
	It's an art, and it's also you know, I have the mindset for it.
	And as he always says, you gotta be careful now because you've gotten far, you know, as he says, you've gotten very dangerous.
	And you gotta be careful.
	And for my mindset, I'm willing to walk away from any fight.
	You can call me any name, I'll walk away.
	But if you go if you're gonna confront me physically, I gotta engage.
	And I think to be able to defend yourself is important in life.
	Um, I'd highly recommend it.
	It makes you mentally stronger, physically stronger, and fit at the same time.
	Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
	I'm Ami Horowitz and I'm in Kansas City at a white privilege conference.
	What is white privilege, you may ask?
	I don't know.
	Let's find out.
	Do you think that it's fair to say all white people in this country have white privilege?
	Yes.
	Yes, absolutely.
	Do all white people have white privilege?
	Yes.
	I feel myself having it every day.
	The country is founded on white supremacy, and that like persists today.
	Hyperaware feels super guilty all the time.
	But that white people in this country generally are prejudiced.
	I'd go further and say we're all racist.
	Is it fair to say that all white people are racist throughout the country?
	Yes.
	Absolutely.
	Not just a South.
	Correct.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Sometimes it's okay to be like, oh, all white people do this, or white people are X, and especially in a negative light.
	Isn't it wrong to judge people collectively?
	Um yes.
	Is it wrong to judge people collectively?
	It's wrong to judge everyone collectively.
	You know.
	Duh.
	Uh yeah, absolutely.
	No one's a monolith.
	That's wrong to judge people collectively, right?
	To judge people, yeah.
	Tell me about some of the white privileges that you have uh encountered over the past, let's say today.
	Uh you're talking about me as a white man today?
	Yeah.
	Oh gosh.
	Uh I mean it's I don't know if I could give you examples.
	Um not really today, but maybe sorry, I'm not gonna think of like today, what white privilege have you come across?
	Uh I sat in my room until 12 30 this morning.
	What are some of the white privilege things you came across, let's say today?
	Today?
	Yeah.
	I mean, just being in the world.
	Is it fair to say that on a daily basis, black people around this country uh face obstacles because of white privilege?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	White supremacy as an institution uh punish punishes black folk uh in a way.
	Daily.
	Absolutely, absolutely, every day.
	How black people are consumed with this day to day, they deal with this issue day and day.
	Oh, 100%.
	I mean, I think that's just so obvious that if you're not admitting that you're you're you're blinding yourself to reality.
	Are you are you professor?
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	That makes that make sense now.
	You know, in fact, when we go to the airport, I walk with her.
	My wife's black, so I have my hand on her so that she people see that I'm with her.
	I extend my white privilege over to her.
	Now I'm here in Harlem in front of the Jackie Robinson housing projects to ask residents what they think of white privilege.
	When you wake up in the morning, do you immediately think about or uh consumed with the idea of white privilege?
	No.
	You don't think about that all day long, every day?
	No?
	No, I'm not consuming it at all.
	I teach students I'm not consuming anything except for runny noses and pencils.
	My mom didn't raise me to colors is the object of anything.
	Do you wake up every day thinking um I am not gonna succeed today because of white privilege?
	No.
	Obviously not.
	You see, I'm my own businessman.
	Would you even think it's damaging to tell your kids and teach your kids if you're a black kid that you're not gonna succeed in life because of the city?
	Of course.
	Of course.
	It makes them think, okay, well, I'm gonna be nothing.
	If I want to be a doctor, I can't even do that anymore.
	It gives them no hope.
	Color ain't stop nothing.
	I mean it's a myth.
	You willing to put coffee next, you'll do what you gotta do.
	I got kids in here, man.
	Dislawyers, doctors.
	They they grew up out of this building.
	I know it sounds cliché, but I can't accomplish anything.
	If you let something stop you, then that's you.
	Me, I ain't let nothing stop me.
	My daughter is graduating at the top of her class.
	I'll say to them, how many black people do you know?
	Do you think that sometimes white people should just kind of shut up a little bit?
	Uh yeah, for sure.
	That white people should definitely shut the f up.
	We white Americans need to do a better job of listening when African Americans talk.
	I do roundup and information overload hour here on the Sean Hannity show.
	That is the latest tape put together by the lunatic friend of the program, Army Horowitz is uh with us, satirist, documentarian.
	You might remember that he actually infiltrated with the refugee population and and had a lot of incidents back to report.
	I mean, this is the type of thing that he does, which is beyond special and unique and shares it with the program, and obviously the topic here was white privilege.
	Jonathan Gillam, host of the experts, Navy SEAL, former FBI uh agent, Federal Air Marshal, uh, welcome back both of you.
	What made you go out and ask about white privilege and were you surprised that when you went into uh it seemed like a predominantly black area that the answers were decidedly different than that when you got at the white privilege conf conference.
	Yeah, I mean a totally black neighborhood.
	This is a uh a housing project.
	You you wouldn't you didn't see a a white person anywhere around.
	Listen, the reason why I did it is very simple.
	I it it is it confounds me to no end that black people support the Democratic Party.
	This is a party that pay that is so patronizing to black people that it in my view has a real hatred and kind of latent racism of black people that I I I constantly want to make, you know, I could man, I could spend every video if I wanted to on the way white liberals view in a patronizing matter black people.
	And I think it's time that black people get a sense that this is not the party for us to support.
	That we're independent thinking people who want to succeed in life, and this is why they need to uh to wake up.
	And I I I want to try to wake them up by do these kind of videos.
	Well, I mean, the thing is is I I think the main most important thing is, you know, if if America had this, and and by the way, racism, you know, does still exist in the minds and hearts of some, but it's a decided minority, a very small minority, and I mean I think one of the worst things, you could be labeled in life as a racist.
	And if you look at the progress that America has made, and if you look at the opportunities that every American has, um, if you work hard, play by the rules, you do your job, you get your grades, you do the the work that's necessary, you're going to get ahead, and I argue you cannot fail.
	Everybody's gonna face some obstacles.
	Um, but it I I don't see America as this.
	I don't see this as a zero-sum game.
	I think there's unlimited potential and opportunity for anybody that wants to do the the things that will make them successful in life.
	Jonathan?
	No, I uh listen.
	We we do have a privilege in this country.
	It's called freedom.
	They don't have that in other places.
	You know, you go to the Middle East, um, you're you're not gonna be free to live an alternative lifestyle, or if you're a woman, you're gonna be looked upon as less than a goat in some places.
	I mean, that's the truth.
	And I think what Ari did was great.
	I'd what I'd like to see him do next is uh go up to the black democrats, people who have dark skin, I don't even like using those terms, and um and show how this is a game.
	Because I don't think uh that the politicians believe what they're saying.
	I think they're just saying it.
	Now I don't know about those.
	Well, that we we have empirical evidence.
	We have data, and the data is in, and after eight years of President Obama, it would basically every economic Measure disproportionately, minorities, blacks, Hispanics in America are were worse off after eight years of Obama.
	And disproportionately so and and their policies didn't work.
	And I remember during the campaign, President Trump would say, you know, they come to you every two years, every four years, and they ask for your vote, and then you don't see him again for another two or four years.
	And unless he's unless a politician is improving your community's life, I don't care what party they are, they don't belong in office.
	Yeah, you're you're exactly right.
	And the reason why listen, the reason why every indic first of all, if you look at black communities across the country who are not doing well, if you look at Detroit or Baltimore or Washington, you know what they all have in common?
	They all have a common they've had legacy democratic, okay?
	It's it's it's so uh it's as obvious as what's on the tip of your nose.
	That the the biggest problem faced by black by by black people by people in general is when you indulge in the notion of victimhood.
	And the Democrats play to that.
	They they they try to make them uh indulge in bathe in victimhood.
	Because when you're a feel like a victim, it's a very powerful emotion because all my problems it's not a me problem, it's a you problem.
	You can transfer all your problems on somebody else.
	It's a wonderful thing and it is so dangerous, and the Democrats play in that day in and day out, and that's why everyone's gonna show that.
	The biggest disadvantage, if we're gonna break things down demographically along racial lines, the biggest injustice that has been perpetrated on minorities in this country deals with an educational system where if you look in in minority neighborhoods, historically they have had the worst school systems, the worst results, and we've done nothing to reach into the talent and ability that every child has.
	The the word education comes from Latin to bring forth from within.
	And there is no reason except government has failed inner city education for children.
	The fundamental, the foundation for all success is education, and we've done nothing to fix it.
	And by the way, um important point here, it has nothing to do with money.
	We spend more money per capita on inner city schools than almost any other school district.
	They they rank you have an unholy political alliance between teachers unions and democrats.
	That's the problem.
	That and and the one thing I'll tell you this about Donald Trump, love or hate him, I'm telling you this.
	The man is looking to change the education system, particularly for minority groups with Carter.
	They've tried it in New York City a number of times.
	I mean, I'll give you one example.
	They had an all-girl public school where the kids had to wear uniforms.
	It was a a spectacular success in just a couple of years until you know the New York Civil Liberties Union came in and shut it down.
	Well, why would they shut down something where the grades are better, the parents are happy, the girls are happy, the kids are happy, and the teachers are happy, and it's working.
	Except for what what?
	They they shut that down because it worked.
	They they shut things down.
	See, what we have to understand is that this is much larger than just uh a political ploy here and there.
	This this is subversion of the country, and this has been going on for a long time, Sean.
	And I know uh that we we all see this.
	Okay, but the the fact is it's just like when you're mentored, you know, you can't just show up and say, I want you to teach me.
	You have to show up and say, I want to learn.
	And if you're not instilling that in your kids, it doesn't matter w how poor, it doesn't matter what gender or color your skin is, if you don't show up to learn, you are not going to grow up to be you have to you have to be disciplined as a young kid to be uh disciplined as just like in the military, but all right, I gotta take a break.
	We'll come back more with Ami Horowitz, more with Jonathan Gillam.
	Final half hour of the program today.
	We'll get to your calls eight hundred nine four one Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
	As we continue, news roundup information overload hour, as we continue with Ami Horowitz and Jonathan Gillam.
	So what do you both make of the media meltdown about Trump and they they can't handle that he really doesn't need them anymore, and he's bypassing them and he's calling them out as fake news and and there's like a collective meltdown, they can't handle it, and yet they get caught again and again having to retract and revise stories and nobody talks about how they colluded with Hillary, nobody talks about how abusively biased they've been, ideological they've been.
	I just think Trump is basically called them out and they resent the hell out of it.
	Yeah, I mean, they it's uh listen, th they're he is essentially d disempowering them.
	That this is what they're they're freaking out about Donald Trump for a whole bunch of reasons, ideological reasons, personal reasons, But one of the reasons that we haven't talked about exactly what you said, he's bypassing them.
	He's essentially taking away the lever of power that they have because he's going directly to the people.
	That's something they cannot stand for.
	And by the way, explain to me why this is not a front page story on on the New York Times or the Washington Post.
	The fact that people at CMN had to leave because of a f truly a fake news story that did not exist.
	Well they they they resigned, which was which I am certain is a lie.
	I mean, so they use fake news to cover a fake news story for the fake news press press release.
	I think at this point what liars they really are.
	And how does Jeff how does Jeff Zucker get away with this, Jonathan Gillam?
	He doesn't own Time Warner, which soon I guess is to be owned by ATT, and he's using it as his personal, you know, propaganda machine to to advance his personal political agenda.
	I don't think it's his per I think he they're all in collusion.
	I don't know, you know, whether Tom Warner's involved in this or not, but uh obviously uh they have no problem with it because if this was uh a legitimate ethical corporation, they would put the kabosh on this immediately, but you don't see that.
	And this is the those guys resigning is it's no different than when Debbie Washerman Schultz left the DNC.
	She immediately went to work for Hillary Clinton's campaign.
	I mean, the re the reality is, Sean, what President Trump is doing is right.
	We why do we need to have private companies that that utilize and manipulate the First Amendment?
	Why do they need to have seats inside our house inside the White House?
	They shouldn't even be in the White House.
	They should be outside the gate like everyone else, screaming questions or asking whatever.
	They don't represent us, and they certainly don't represent the truth.
	So why should they even be in the white house?
	I say take that property back in that room, give it to the Secret Service.
	They don't even have a locker room in there.
	Give it to them, those people who are serving the president and let them have that space.
	They don't even all of you know, that's a good point.
	I don't I only I've often walked around and wondered where these Secret Service guys are.
	I mean, they are so good at hiding.
	I actually think they're probably inside a walls and all over the place that I have no idea of They don't they have a closet to put their stuff in, Sean.
	And most people don't realize when they go to work, they don't just pull up to a parking garage reserved for the Secret Service.
	They have to drive around for sometimes an hour, hour and a half, looking for parking on the street before they walk in and protect the most powerful leader in the world.
	I used is that true.
	It's true.
	That's crazy.
	To pay for their own food on Air Force One.
	That's ridiculous.
	That's ridiculous.
	I'd change that policy tomorrow.
	That's ridiculous.
	Uh uh some things just make absolutely zero sense.
	And meanwhile, if you're a guest, uh well, the only thing that they do have to do, and the media gets a nice break, people don't know this.
	If they fly on Air Force One or an accompanying jet where they're going on a longer trip, they do pay like I guess the ma bare minimum to get on that plane, and I'm sure they get fed pretty well too.
	They should be flying on a private airplane.
	Why should they be getting on air anything that has to do with Air Force?
	Nothing.
	I agree.
	Maybe one pool reporter in case, you know, they always want to have somebody where we We need somebody around the president at all times.
	Actually, John, can I I want to say one thing to you?
	You know, yesterday was uh the twelve year anniversary for Operation Red Wings, that's the Marcus Lutrell story.
	Men giving their lives for freedom and for their brothers.
	And I I know this sounds, you know, uh like a far stretch, but what you all are doing in the media um is telling the truth and showing truth, and that is just as important as the men and women that go out and fight for freedom.
	The fact that you all are trying, but it's not as important.
	I gotta let you guys roll.
	Happy uh we Fourth of July weekend of both of you, and thanks for being with us.
	800 941 Sean, toll-free telephone number.
	When we get back, we'll have wide open phones on what is my Friday and Hannity Tonight, 10 Eastern Fox News Channel.
	I'm gonna lay out in great, great detail why the media is in a meltdown mode.
	Maybe they should stop calling the president a schmuck, a liar, a thug, and mentally unhinged and stop lying about him.
	Maybe that's a good first step to repairing the damage that they've caused.
	All right, let's hit the phones.
	A lot of you have been very, very patient.
	Let's go to Joe is in Brookhaven in New York.
	Joe, hi, how are you?
	Welcome aboard.
	Glad you're with us.
	Sure, and thank you.
	I want to talk about Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.
	Mm-hmm.
	We've been for years, my wife's been saying she's unwatchable.
	She makes the weirdest facial expressions, and she paid back to everyone else on the show.
	She doesn't have one intelligent thought of her own.
	Now, Strbo put all his eggs in Clinton's basket and the Democrats when he thought they were going to win.
	He basically threw every Republican under bus.
	He thought he was going to get a cushy job, and so is she.
	Now, Mr. Trump has every right to defend himself.
	Especially they've been attacking him relentlessly every day for three hours a day.
	And this is from my wife.
	She says, give me a break.
	He can't go after her because she's a woman, but she maliciously goes after him.
	Hey, women demand equal rights.
	Why shouldn't she be treated any different?
	She's not a nice person.
	She's arrogant, obnoxious, pompous, and seems very ugly on the inside.
	Now same as this side kid.
	Uh Mike Barnacle and Donnie Duke.
	They should not get a free pair.
	Uh that music video that I quote you was cringe-worthy.
	We could not even watch it.
	It brought me back to MTV in the Night Evo or talking heads from 1981.
	That was pathetic.
	And well, listen, you know what?
	We all we all have a right to fight back.
	And in this case, yeah, the president's fighting back.
	You know what?
	I just think they're so low-rated and so insignificant.
	You know, it I think that's kind of like that's a job I should handle.
	Wait, but shouldn't shouldn't we let the audience judge for themselves if Mystified is worthy of listening to?
	Yeah.
	Because we have a little bit of it, Sean, just by chance to have it ready.
	Sorry, Joe.
	We'll be right back.
	I'm looking inside.
	And nothing is defined by what I saw.
	We apologize to those listeners driving off the road.
	i'm looking inside and i've been terrified by who i saw
	i won't be coming over tonight i won't be going down without a fight I'm looking inside.
	And now Sean, I'm sorry, I gotta cut this off.
	We gotta go into the when they laughed.
	We all have we all need something more normal.
	Donald Trump just last week he confirmed to the National Review that he is again considering a run in 2016.
	Do it.
	Arthur probably brought you a counterfighting check now, on behalf of this country, which does not want you to be president, but which badly wants you to run.
	Donald Trump has been saying that he will run for president as a Republican, which is surprising since I just assumed he was running as a joke.
	Because the people think that Donald Trump is a clown.
	Donald Donald Trump is a clown.
	I mean, does anybody seriously think that Donald Trump is serious about running for president?
	Donald Trump.
	You know, he's a clown.
	Which Republican candidate has the best chance of winning the general election.
	Of the declared ones right now, Donald Trump.
	The end of the year is the end of the year.
	President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States.
	Exclamation point.
	At real Donald Trump.
	At real Donald Trump.
	At least I will go down as a president.
	Basically, this is the beginning of the end for Trump.
	Beginning of the end?
	This is probably starting of the beginning of the end for Donald Trump.
	Donald, uh, you're not gonna be able to insult your way to the presidency.
	The strongest person usually isn't the loudest one in the room.
	So right now we have Hillary's about 75 or an 80% favorite.
	We be from first Paul has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally, 12 points 50 to 38 in four-way race.
	Clinton leading in Florida.
	Clinton leading in North Carolina.
	Clinton leading in Ohio.
	Clinton leading in Nevada.
	I could go on and on and on.
	I continue to believe Mr. Trump.
	Trump will not be present.
	And so, right now, Mr. Trump, to answer your call for political honesty, I just want to say you're not going to be president.
	All right.
	It's been fun.
	It's home great.
	I love you.
	Come on.
	Come on, money.
	We have a major projection right now.
	Donald Trump will take Oh.
	I'm CNN projects.
	Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida.
	Huge win for Donald Trump.
	Donald Trump, we project, will win in Kentucky, in Indiana, with its 11 electoral votes.
	West, Virginia, well, Tennessee, Mississippi, South Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota, with its three electoral votes, and South Dakota, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, the state of Montana, North Carolina, Georgia, Iowa, Utah, Wisconsin, Arizona, Kansas, with its six electoral votes, Nebraska with its five electoral votes, and Wyoming with its three electoral votes.
	Sorry to keep you waiting.
	Complicated business.
	A lot of people have laughed at me over the years.
	Now they're not laughing so much, I'll tell you.
	That tells the whole story, doesn't it?
	It's my greatest montage.
	I love it.
	It cracks me up every time I hear it.
	We go.
	As we say hi to Casey, is in Idaho.
	Hey Casey, how are you?
	Glad you called.
	Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call.
	I was wanting to talk about uh last week a story broke about the NSC transferring Susan Rice's unmasking documents to Obama's presidential library.
	And I think that they may be getting scared, and we may be exposing the tip of iceberg, and uh it's another example of a supposed scandal-free administration using a nonpartisan government entity to basically target his political enemies.
	That is the deep state, and the selective leaking continues of intelligence, which is in every instance a felony committed by people within the deep state.
	It's a felony every time.
	I think we're I think we're getting closer to finding these people, and I think we will find them, and I think it's it's gonna be daunting, but it's gonna be rewarding to clean it up.
	I agree, Sean.
	And you know, if if Susan Rice felt so compelled to unmask Michael Flynn, I was just wondering, you know, why wasn't she, or we could at least look into the fact did she in fact unmask Huma Abedin and her and her family's ties to Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia and the Muslim Brotherhood.
	You know, think about this.
	The one thing that didn't leak in the Comey case was that Comey had told the president repeatedly that he's not the target of an investigation.
	The one thing that happens with leaking, there's there's no leaking that's exculpatory towards the president, is there?
	So it's obviously an agenda within the deep state to hurt the president and advance, I guess, their cause.
	Anyway, appreciate it.
	Thank you.
	800 941 Sean Jeannie is in uh well, I guess Jeannie's gone.
	All right, that's gonna wrap things up for today.
	We got an awesome Hannity tonight, 10 Eastern on the Fox News Channel, as we have a monologue about the media and a war that's going on with the president.
	They declared the war, viciously attacking, lying against the president, the media's war on Trump and sanctuary cities, and the attack on you know everything Trump, which pretty much goes on every day.
	Jay Sekulow will look at the six scandals the media won't report on that we are following.
	And a mini monologue tonight, well, that you don't want to miss out.
	I don't want to tell you who it's at about.
	Ten Eastern Hannity on Fox.
	Listen, I'm taking a few days off for the holiday, and I will see you back here soon.
	We'll see you tonight at 10.
	Have a great fourth of July.
	God bless you, God bless America, the greatest country God gave man.
