	We'd love for you to be a part of this extravaganza.
	And our top story today remains an 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 Mueller'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 destroy 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'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 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 WikiLeaks 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, you know, everything and anything in between.
	I 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 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 a 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 going to 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 to the National Review that he is again considering a run in 2016.
	Do it.
	Do it.
	Look at me.
	Do it.
	I will personally write you a campaign 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.
	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.
	President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States.
	Exclamation point at real Donald Trump.
	Well, at real Donald Trump, at least I will go down as a president.
	Basically, this is the beginning of the end for Trump.
	The beginning of the end.
	The beginning of the end?
	This is probably starting of the beginning of the end for Donald Trump.
	Donald, you're not going to 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 versions of the portfolios.
	You can look at Paul has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally, 12 points, 50 to 38 in a 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 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 been great.
	I love you.
	But come on, come on, buddy.
	We have a major projection right now.
	Donald Trump will take Ohio.
	That's the end of 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 11 electoral votes.
	West, Virginia, Florida, 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.
	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 literally on my computer non-stop.
	And what I'm doing is I'm looking Cuyahoga County, Hamilton County, West Palm Beach, Broward County.
	I'm looking all over 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 Schein, 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 worry that what we project is going to be true, but I'm never, but we don't get it wrong.
	So anyway, and then you get to election night.
	And North Carolina goes for Donald Trump.
	All of a sudden, then we're watching.
	And Hillary's thinking, you know, well, we've got to cancel that fireworks display over the Hudson, wherever she was going to have it.
	And then the media, listen to the media.
	They went into a funk, into a depression.
	I remember I was, 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-labor 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 challenged 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, 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 whitelash.
	This was a whitelash against a changing country.
	It was a white lash against a black president in part.
	And that's the part where the pain comes.
	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 New York developer, builder,
	licensor, landlord, investor, 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 his cultural anger, we should correctly identify as being racial animus, and that it's significant 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 mourning moment for those people.
	And it is a moment filled with fear, filled with fear.
	Tim Kaine has a son in the Marine Corps.
	He was asked by John 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 Kaine said, I wouldn't.
	That's a pretty extraordinary thing to say if you have a son in the Marine Corps and that you don't trust the Commander-in-Chief.
	The people in the military defend the Constitution.
	And we've talked about excitement among women to have a woman president, but 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, particularly among non-college educated white men, is not surprising.
	And I think some of it has to be attributed to the fact that Trump is running against a woman.
	Do the brains that got together.
	We're going to stop it there.
	So this is where they went through 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, innuendo.
	They've attacked his daughter, his wife, his 11-year-old son.
	They've had ISIS poses with the bloodied head of the president.
	They tell the most insane jokes, incest jokes, anything, call his wife a prostitute, and everything and anything in between.
	Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	How many retracted reports of lies?
	And, you know, so 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 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, 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 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 best-selling 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.

	Hi, 25 to the top of the hour, 800-941 Sean, 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 going to tweet this out, but we just in the studio here, Ethan looked up and he's like, you got to see this.
	And I look up.
	Just so everybody knows you're not watching CNN, you have four TVs in there like I do on my own.
	Yes, we do.
	We have four TVs and we're watching everyone at the same time.
	But it had a break.
	Between your room and my room, which is adjacent, I think we've got 15 computers and eight television sets.
	That's correct.
	We're actually working here.
	But I didn't put CNN on today.
	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.
	You watch 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, it says, breaking news, Trump speaks after tweeting attack on female anchor.
	It's like, really?
	He's speaking about coal, gasoline, listen.
	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 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.
	And was the story true?
	I don't know the extent of it.
	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 he wasn't interested in seeing them down at Mar-a-Lago.
	And apparently, she had had something.
	I don't know what had happened.
	I don't know if what it was, some kind of surgery, and I don't know what it was, and I'm not going to 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 these people something 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're 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 11-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 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 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 going to 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, can we all just act like we're not so outraged all the time?
	You know, we have an outrage industry in this country.
	Oh, I'm so offended.
	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 going to put Mr. Burgess up against me and tear me up.
	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 Mr. Burgess up against Sean Hannity.
	He'll tear him up.
	And I was making the point: is that some type of physical threat that Obama was making?
	I knew 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 influence our election is a joke.
	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 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 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 going to look into Obama?
	What about Loretta Lynch's obstruction?
	I'm going to tell you a big deal.
	Hillary Clinton giving 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 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.
	And 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 watching their relevancy, or what they thought was relevancy, now evaporate before their very eyes and they're literally melting 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 going to 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 same 15 people.
	America's not 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 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've figured out the media is against the people.
	That 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 alka, seltzer 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 a lot of these people that I don't even begin to tell you about, which 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, 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 bordering on psychotic.
	And yeah, 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 some information from her that ought to be interesting.
	We'll get to all of this today.
	We got Newt Gingrich at the top of the hour.
	We got Ami Horowitz.
	He actually goes around at a white privilege conference asking what it is.
	And then he goes into African Americans, black Americans, what they think of it.
	It's an interesting follow-up.
	Lou Dobbs will join us.
	Jonathan Gillum 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 Gillum, Amy Horowitz, 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 peddling fake news, right?
	That's right.
	And I just very quickly want to echo what David Challion was saying.
	I think that the White House, the president, also handled the Justice Gorsuch matter very well.
	That from start to finish was handled extremely well by this White House.
	They did not put forward a nominee who was 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 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.
	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 claim that President Obama, the false claim that President Obama was born in another country, President Obama was born in Hawaii.
	He came out 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 in the 2016 election.
	The White House is just finally cobbling together a voter fraud 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.
	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 and then never produced any kind of evidence of wiretapping at 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, is because if he holds a news conference, we're going to ask all of these questions.
	There you have it, 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 news media and how unhinged they are, they have earned the name of the president, which is very fake news.
	They've earned it.
	You know, and there's certainly a war that has now broken out between the destroy 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, innuendo, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	They've even attacked his daughter, the first lady, and an 11-year-old kid.
	And, you know, we've had NBC, you got the president in the morning being called a schmuck, a liar, a thug, and mentally unhinged.
	You got Madow 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 every combined network, correspondent, and newspaper in the country.
	The media has 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 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-Saltzer, as I mentioned earlier, and continue down the ideological leftist path towards irrelevancy.
	Because that's what's happening.
	Anyway, Newt Kingrich is here.
	His best-selling book, number one, New York Times, is out.
	It's called Understanding Trump.
	This has now hit, I think, a tipping point with the media and the president.
	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 10% 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 that I'm so 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 Jonathan Ingram, just published in Forbes an article that says that the real CBO numbers are totally different, totally different than the numbers they released on the Senate bill.
	A couple quick examples.
	They said the Senate bill would have 7 million fewer people in 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 5 million people are going to lose Medicaid expansion coverage, but that's in states that never expanded Medicaid in the first place.
	So those 5 million come out of the 22 million we've been taught, the press has been talking about.
	They say another 7 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 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 totally.
	Because when you read this article, which just came out in Forbes this morning, this is crazy.
	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.
	There is no excuse for them to have been 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 just crazy.
	It's as bad as I've ever seen.
	Well, now, because Trump is fighting back, it started with the Atlantic and it's now spreading.
	And, you know, I liked 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 they have been given by the American people is a disgrace.
	It's a disservice to the people that they are supposed to be serving.
	And, you know, this declaration that this war on the media has, you know, is emboldening war zones and the Atlantic editor-in-chief is he's going to be responsible for violence against journalists.
	It seems to me rather than have a real long, hard look in the mirror at their ideological bent in 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 my argument is I don't think he needs them anymore.
	Look, I think that's right.
	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 is dramatically better than this government bureaucracy score, which now turns out to be so stupid and so fake that, again, I'm just going to 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 not kid ourselves.
	You know, there are a wide range of people out there who voted for Hillary, who gave money to Hillary, who hoped Hillary would win.
	They don't want to serve the President of the United States.
	They want to undermine him, slow him down, give him bad advice, and do everything they can to make sure he can't implement his program.
	Well, I think that in many ways that you've got the deep state, you got Democrats that want him to fail.
	Deep state selective leaking has been brutal to the president.
	There's even more coming, as I understand it, in the next week or so.
	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.
	They never paid a price for collusion with Hillary.
	Then you've got Republicans that never liked Trump to begin with.
	And then you got never Trumpers that are just dying to gain back relevance and say, see, we were right.
	That's a lot of enemies for any one president to have.
	Well, but if you're going to be as bold as he has been, remember, he took on the entire Republican establishment and won the nomination.
	He pivoted, took on 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.
	And so this is the biggest outsider takeover of government I think we've seen since Andrew Jackson in 1828.
	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 a bigger government, higher taxes, weaker economy, smaller military, 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.
	I think that's why you see the president so effective when he goes on the road.
	And 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 why I personally believe he should do one rally every 10 days.
	I think that's probably a 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 meltdown, the daily meltdown now in the press room.
	And is it going to be recorded, not be recorded?
	And the hostility that exists in that room towards him.
	And I got to be honest, I mean, 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, the truth is he's in a great position to go out and to communicate more directly.
	He's really built on what Reagan did.
	Reagan built on Franklin Delano Roosevelt's use of radio.
	Nobody's really done it between Roosevelt and Reagan.
	Reagan turned it into an institution, so every president since has done the Saturday radio address.
	Now, Trump is moving into the next cycle of technology, and he's using Facebook and Twitter and other kinds of social media in a way that's quite impressive.
	Yeah, it really is.
	All right, Mr. Speaker, thanks for being with us.
	We appreciate it.
	Former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, 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 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.
	Hey, by the way, great job out there.
	I really love it.
	We appreciate it, all your hard work.
	But I have really two quick, really good questions for you.
	Number one is: why is the Trump administration dragging their feet on getting rid of these Obama holdovers in the intelligence community?
	And my second question is: why doesn't Donald Trump just sign an executive order to have these 17 agencies stop talking to each other?
	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, 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 going to clean this mess up.
	And 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 going to go.
	So it just, I don't think they anticipated this.
	I'll be honest.
	I think it hit them like 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 been hard, and it is hard, and it is difficult.
	And you're not probably going to get everybody, but you're going to get a lot of them.
	Well, do you have time for one more quick question?
	Yeah, sure.
	Do you think what scares me about the whole Mueller investigation in the deep state?
	I mean, these are the same people that despise John F. Kennedy, and we know what ended up happening there.
	What really scares me is the planning of evidence.
	If they try to plant evidence to just dream up some sort of like crime that happened that didn't happen, I mean, this is pretty scary stuff.
	Look, I mean, there are evil people in the world.
	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 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, then it's, as I said, a soft coup, in other words.
	You just have to fight to prevent it from happening.
	You know, I mean, yeah, 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 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, 10 Eastern.
	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 about characterizing the report, which 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 have made?
	They have the documentation that they did the hacking.
	The hacking.
	On the DNC.
	Right.
	And on some of us, you know, that had to be.
	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?
	Listen, there is a lot of smoke.
	We hadn'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 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 Donald Trump or any member of his campaign colluded, conspired, or coordinated with the Russians or anyone else to infiltrate or impact our voter infrastructure?
	Not beyond 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 Dianne Feinstein to Maxime Waters to Joe Manchin to the intelligence community and Comey and Clapper and Brennan and Admiral Rogers and everybody else, we've had 11 months of nonstop hysteria in the news media today.
	And, you know, with now the news media, oh, the president, he's got to 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'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 look forward to that.
	I didn't know I was invited on your show tonight.
	You're going to get invited every day now.
	Oh, but I'll come every day.
	I love being on your show.
	I mean, you have the highest-rated show on your network and well-deserved.
	You know, you and I, it's funny because this, 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 for vacation, and this is my book that I'm going to 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 really, there's a historic pathway for Vladimir Putin to reconstitute the fallen Soviet Union in his own image to take those former Union of Soviet socialist republics and make them the new and modern Russia.
	And people forget, you know, I love the people who attack Trump 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.
	But 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 is Trump and then try to create the big lie that he's colluding with the 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, the lap never mentions this.
	That's because Russia has 1,750 deployed nuclear warheads on ICBMs, whether in their submarines or on ground bases.
	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.
	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.
	This one producer that's saying, oh, yeah, we're only doing Russia for ratings.
	Well, 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 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 principal outlets of the national left-wing media, whether it's the Washington Post, the New York Times, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, or CNN.
	I mean, that is a rogues gallery of political activists posing as journalists.
	And they are nothing more than, as you put it, astriffrop and propaganda.
	Each one of them could have a hyphen provda next to their name and be closer to 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 that 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 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 just a swirling cuss pool at MSNBC of left-wing fantasies.
	And they are, let's not, there's no way to just simply say this is a media that has gone mad here.
	This is MSNBC.
	This is NBC.
	This is CNN, Time Warner, Comcast, and the major corporations that have 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 fight to, I truly believe, to a final resolution, 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 even having a hard time getting the health care bill, a repeal and replace bill.
	We had 100 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 Mike Lee and Ram 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 4th of July.
	Now they're talking maybe before the August recess.
	And then they're talking about a 4th of July recess that an August recess.
	I mean, who takes this much vacation?
	Only the U.S. Senate.
	Not even the House can approach them.
	They haven't paid attention, Sean, to the new reality in town, and that is a president who works 24-7, 365 days a year.
	His work ethic, if everybody wants to criticize him, attack him for whatever it may be, why not laud him for the things that he does so well?
	He has brilliantly turned the economy.
	He has turned the national focus into an agenda that is positive, that's moving.
	He has moved government into an energy level that it was unfathomable just a year ago 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 delusional right to make comments on the president's language, statements, or whatever.
	Just, I mean, I can't believe the way the Republican Party leadership is behaving.
	It's the opportunity of a lifetime.
	And if they don't get their ass moving, it's going to be a blown opportunity of a lifetime.
	All right, Lou Dobbs, Fox Business Network, every night at 7 p.m. and often on 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 going to be great for reading over the summer.
	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.
	Thank you.
	Sean, thank you.
	You're a great friend, and I'm going to show you that I can reciprocate.
	I know I've never been invited on the Lou Dobbs show.
	I'd never get invited once.
	We're going to fix this.
	Apparently, I don't rate enough to get on the Lou Dobbs show.
	I can't believe it.
	All right, 800-941-Sean is a number.
	You want to be a part of the program.
	We'll start with Mark.
	He's in Winter Haven in Florida, listening to News 94-5, WDBO.
	What's going on?
	How are you?
	Absolutely outstanding, sir.
	Just want to thank you so much for allowing me the privilege to listen to you for years and watch Hannandee and Colms 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 sharpness with your busy schedule and how you utilize that?
	And what do you think we can do to spread the martial arts and physical activity to the rest of our youth that are kind of like stuck on Twitter and computers and games and stuff?
	You know, you're asking me 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.
	I do an eclectic blend of arts.
	I've got a guy that has spent 40 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 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, it's how do I react and defend myself?
	It's also strength building, core building, and I do 100 sit-ups a day, 100 push-ups a day in various forms.
	I don't do a lot of lifting, but I've done some lifting, barbell lifting.
	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.
	You know, now it doesn't matter on the person.
	It'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 and instead of being so stuck in the high-tech world.
	Well, you know, it's something you got to want to do.
	I mean, part of it is pain management and training and the calcification of, you know, if you're throwing elbows and putting people in chokes.
	And 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 got to be careful now because you've gotten far, you know, as he says, you've gotten very dangerous.
	And you got to 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're going to confront me physically, I got to engage.
	And I think to be able to defend yourself is important in life.
	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 was 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 the South.
	Correct.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Sometimes it's okay to be like, oh, all white people do this, or white people are X, especially in a negative way.
	Is it wrong to judge people collectively?
	Yes.
	Is it wrong to judge people collectively?
	It's wrong to judge everyone collectively.
	You know?
	Duh.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	No one's a monolith.
	That's wrong to judge people collectively, right?
	To judge people?
	Yeah.
	Obviously.
	Tell me about some of the white privileges that you have encountered over the past, let's say today.
	You're talking about me as a white man today?
	Yeah.
	Oh, gosh.
	I mean, I don't know if I could give you examples.
	Not really today, but maybe.
	Sorry, I'm not good at thinking.
	Like today, what white privilege have you come across?
	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 face obstacles because of white privilege?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	White supremacy as an institution punishes black folk in a way daily.
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	Every day.
	How black people are consumed with this day to day.
	They deal 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 blinding yourself to reality.
	Are you?
	Are you a professor?
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	That makes sense now.
	You know, in fact, when we go to the airport, I walk with her.
	My wife's black, so I'll have my hand on her so that 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 and are consumed with the idea of white privilege?
	No.
	You don't think about that all day long?
	Every day?
	No?
	No.
	No, I'm not consumed with it at all.
	I teach students I'm not consuming anything except for runny noses and pencils.
	My mom didn't raise me to view colors.
	It's the object of anything.
	Do you wake up every day thinking I am not going to succeed today because of white privilege?
	No.
	Obviously not.
	You see, I'm my own businessman.
	Do you even think it's damaging to tell your kids and teacher kids if you're a black kid that you're not going to succeed in life because you have white power?
	Of course.
	Of course.
	It makes them think, okay, well, I'm going to be nothing.
	If I want to be a doctor, I can't even do that anymore.
	It gives them no hope.
	Color ain't stopped nothing.
	I mean, it's a myth.
	It's America.
	If you're willing to put corporate effort, you'll do what you got to do.
	I got kids in here, man.
	That's lawyers, doctors.
	They grew up out of this building.
	I know it sounds cliche, but I can accomplish anything.
	If you let something stop you the next year, 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 just kind of shut up a little bit?
	Oh, yeah, for sure.
	That white people should definitely shut f ⁇ up.
	We white Americans need to do a better job of listening when African Americans talk.
	All right, news 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 with us.
	Satarist, documentarian, you might remember that he actually infiltrated with the refugee population 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 agent, federal air marshal, welcome back, both of you.
	What made you go out and ask about white privilege?
	And were you surprised that when you went into it seemed like a predominantly black area that the answers were decidedly different than that when you got at the white privilege conference?
	Yeah, I mean a totally black neighborhood.
	This was a housing project.
	You didn't see a white person anywhere around.
	Listen, the reason why I did it is very simple.
	It confounds me to no end that black people support the Democratic Party.
	This is a party that is so patronizing to black people that, in my view, has a real hatred and kind of latent racism of black people that I constantly want to make, you know, I could spend every video if I wanted to on the way white liberals view in a patronizing manner 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 wake up.
	And I want to try to wake them up by doing these kind of videos.
	Well, I mean, the thing is, is I think the main, most important thing is, you know, if America had this, 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, if you work hard, play by the rules, you do your job, you get your grades, you do the work that's necessary, you're going to get ahead.
	And I argue you cannot fail.
	Everybody's going to face some obstacles, but 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 things that will make them successful in life.
	Jonathan?
	No, listen, 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, you're not going to be free to live an alternative lifestyle.
	Or if you're a woman, you're going to 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.
	What I'd like to see him do next is go up to the black Democrats, people who have dark skin, I don't even like using those terms, and show how this is a game.
	Because I don't think that the politicians believe what they're saying.
	I think they're just saying it.
	Now, I don't know about those.
	Well, we have empirical evidence.
	We have data.
	And the data is in.
	And after eight years of President Obama, with basically every economic measure, disproportionately, minorities, blacks, Hispanics in America, were worse off after eight years of Obama.
	And disproportionately so.
	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 them again for another two or four years.
	And 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 exactly right.
	And the reason why, listen, the reason why every indicator, 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 in common.
	They've had legacy Democratic, okay?
	It's as obvious as what's on the tip of your nose.
	That the biggest problem faced by black, by black people, by people in general, is when you indulge in the notion of victimhood.
	And the Democrats play to that.
	They try to make them indulge and bathe in victimhood.
	Because when you're going to 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 is going to be able to do that.
	You know what the biggest thing?
	The biggest disadvantage, if we're going to 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 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 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, an 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 rank.
	But you have an unholy political alliance between teachers, unions, and Democrats.
	That's the problem.
	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 targeted.
	Well, 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 spectacular success in just a couple of years until 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?
	They shut that down because it worked.
	They shut things down.
	See, what we have to understand is that this is much larger than just a political ploy here and there.
	This is subversion of the country.
	And this has been going on for a long time, Sean.
	And I know that we all see this.
	But the fact is, it's just like when you're mentored.
	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 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 be disciplined as a young kid to be a disciplined adult.
	Just like in the military.
	But all right, I got to take a break.
	We'll come back more with Ami Horowitz, more with Jonathan Gillum.
	Final half hour of the program today.
	We'll get to your calls, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
	All right, as we continue, news roundup information overload hour as we continue with Ami Horowitz and Jonathan Gillum.
	So what do you both make of the media meltdown about Trump and 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 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 has basically called them out and they resent the hell out of it.
	Yeah, I mean, it's listen, he's essentially disempowering them.
	This is what, listen, 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 the New York Times or the Washington Post.
	The fact that people at CMN had to leave because of truly a fake news story that did not exist.
	Well, they resigned, which I am certain is a lie.
	I mean, so they use fake news to cover a fake news story.
	The fake news press release.
	It's unbelievable.
	They don't even realize, I think, at this point what liars they really are.
	And how does Jeff Zucker get away with this, Jonathan Gillum?
	He doesn't own Time Warner, which soon, I guess, is to be owned by AT ⁇ T.
	And he's using it as his personal propaganda machine to advance his personal political agenda.
	I don't think it's his performance.
	I think they're all in collusion.
	I don't know whether Tom Warner's involved in this or not, but obviously they have no problem with it because if this was a legitimate ethical corporation, they would put the kibosh on this immediately.
	But you don't see that.
	And those guys resigning, it's no different than when Debbie Washerman Schultz left the DNC.
	She immediately went and worked for Hillary Clinton's campaign.
	I mean, the reality is, Sean, what President Trump is doing is right.
	Why do we need to have private companies 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 allow, you know, that's a good point.
	I only have 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 of walls and all over the place that I have no idea.
	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.
	Is that true?
	It's true.
	That's crazy.
	They have 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.
	Some things just make absolutely zero sense.
	And meanwhile, if you're a guest, well, the only thing that you 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 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 flying on 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.
	We need somebody around the president at all times.
	Actually, Sean, I want to say one thing to you.
	You know, yesterday was the 12-year anniversary for Operation Red Wings.
	That's the Marcus Luttrell story.
	Men giving their lives for freedom and for their brothers.
	And I know this sounds, you know, like a far stretch, but what you all are doing in the media 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.
	Inform the public of truth.
	I got to let you guys roll.
	Happy 4th of July weekend to 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 going to 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.
	Sean, thank you.
	I want to talk about Nika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.
	We've been for years, my wife's been saying she's unwatchable.
	She makes the weirdest facial expressions, and she piggybacks off everyone else on the show.
	She doesn't have one intelligent thought of her own.
	Now, Scarborough put all his eggs in Clinton's basket and the Democrat when he thought they were going to win.
	He basically threw every Republican under the bus.
	He thought he was going to get a cushy job, and so was 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 their sidekicks, Mike Barnacle and Donnie Duch, they should not get a free pass.
	That music video that, well, I quote you, was cringeworthy.
	We could not even watch it.
	It brought me back to MTV in the Night Devo or Talking Hedge from 1981.
	That was pathetic.
	Well, listen, you know what?
	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, I think that's kind of like, that's a job I should handle.
	Wait, but shouldn't we let the audience judge for themselves if Mystified is worthy of listening to?
	Yeah, I think.
	Because we have a little bit of it, Sean, just by chance.
	I have it ready.
	Sorry, Joe.
	And I've been mystified by what I saw.
	We apologize to those listeners driving off the road.
	I'm looking inside.
	And I've intended by who I saw.
	So tell your eye no friend what you want to tell.
	I won't be coming over tonight.
	And tell those bleaker speed freaks that you hang out with.
	I won't be going down without a fight.
	Cause I'm looking inside.
	And I've been.
	Sean, I'm sorry.
	I got to cut this off.
	We got to go into the when they laughed.
	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.
	Do it.
	Look at me.
	Do it.
	I will personally write you a campaign 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 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.
	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.
	The beginning of the end.
	The beginning of the end.
	This is probably starting of the beginning of the end for Donald Trump.
	Donald, you're not going to 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 versions of the forecast.
	Paul has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally, 12 points, 50 to 38 in a 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 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 been great.
	I love you.
	But come on, come on, buddy.
	We have a major projection right now.
	Donald Trump will take Ohio.
	That's in our projects.
	Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida.
	Huge win for Donald Trump.
	Donald Trump while we project will win in Kentucky within Indiana with its 11 electoral votes.
	Western Virginia, 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 just, it's my greatest montage.
	I love it.
	It cracks me up every time I hear it.
	All right, back to the phones 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 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 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 getting closer to finding these people, and I think we will find them.
	And I think it's going to be daunting, but it's going to be rewarding to clean it up.
	I agree, Sean.
	And, you know, if Susan Rice felt so compelled to unmask Michael Flynn, I was just wondering, you know, why wasn't she, or we should at least look into the fact, did she, in fact, unmask Huma Abedin and her and her family's ties to 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 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, well, I guess Jeannie's gone.
	All right, that's going to wrap things up for tonight.
	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.
