Good afternoon.
America, I'm Raheem Kassam sitting in for Sean Hannity here in Midtown Manhattan.
Again, I'm Raheem Kassam, the editor in chief of Breitbart London, sitting in here for Sean Hannity today while the President of the United States is on my side of the pond.
That's right, President Trump in Poland this morning.
I want to hear what you guys have to say about what you've heard so far.
And if you haven't, we're going to play some clips over the course of this show.
We've got a great show planned for you guys today.
We've got Dr. Sebastian Gorka from the White House who will join us in this hour.
We'll also be talking about the case of the ten month old baby, Charlie Gard, who uh is basically been sentenced to death by the British courts and the European Court of Human Rights.
It's an incredibly disturbing case.
And we're hoping that we'll be getting we're gonna be getting some exclusive commentary and exclusive insight into Charlie Gard's situation and where he stands now, following that ruling by the European Court of Human Rights from a very close friend of the family.
We'll also, of course, be focusing on hashtag CNN Blackmail.
CNN, the Corleone news network as they've come to be known on social media in a true shakedown of a meme maker, somebody who mocked that news organization on Twitter, was threatened by CNN.
And we're going to be talking about that with my good buddy, the founder and CEO of American Majority, Ned Ryan will join us.
And also Matthew Tierman, who is a Polish American journalist who is suing a newspaper in Poland.
See, it all comes together very well with the Poland today, uh, that is supported by none other than George Soros.
But the President is indeed in uh was indeed this morning in Poland, obviously very busy in Hamburg now for the G twenty summit.
Angela Merkel hosting that one.
This morning he spoke about challenging and defeating radical Islamic terrorism.
To rapturous applause, people chanting his name on the streets of Poland.
But of course, that's not what the media wants to report over here.
No, CNN is pivoting to Russia already.
The Washington Post interviewed three students from a liberal university in Warsaw, and then claimed that President Trump was not popular in Warsaw in Poland, as a result of this three people that they quoted in their article yesterday.
It's extraordinary stuff.
800-941-7326 is the number.Shawn.
S E A N Sean.
You know, it has been a nightmare week for CNN.
It really has been.
At least if if they could get to sleep, they'd be having a nightmare.
CEO Jeff Zucker is saying that he doesn't get much sleep anyway.
I'm not I I I don't blame him.
How could you sleep if you were this man?
You know, it what they're doing at the moment is immoral.
It is unjust, it is unbalanced, and shrouded with the premise of objectivity.
But more than anything, it's hysterical.
They are they are prone to mass hysteria right now.
I mean, you look at the videos that came out last week from James O'Keefe.
If you haven't seen them, make sure you look for them.
The videos, the undercover videos that showed CNN staff mocking the average American, mocking American voters, mocking Kellyanne Conway, saying the Russian narrative is a big nothing burger.
All caught on tape.
Look at what happened when Breitbart.com, my uh parish, exposed the fact that CNN's claim about Anthony Scaramucci, one of the uh one of the close Trump campaign operatives, was under investigation by the Treasury Committee.
No such thing happened.
And three of their investigative reporters had to resign.
And of course, we've already spoken about hashtag CNN Blackmail.
So yes, it's been an absolute nightmare of a week for them.
And you know what?
Instead of holding their hands up and saying, We're sorry, we got it wrong.
We've done some things that we shouldn't have done, and we're gonna, you know, investigate ourselves and reflect and and be big boys about this.
Be grown-ups about it.
No, no, no, no.
CNN is now pivoting back to Russia where they feel most comfortable in smack bang in the middle of conspiracy land, ladies and gentlemen.
You know, their website is currently focused on what President Trump said about what it is to be a modern president.
Forget what he said about radical Islamic terrorism this morning.
Sure, just wipe that under the carpet.
Forget the rapturous reception to thousands of people chanting Donald Trump, Donald Trump on the streets of Warsaw.
No, that never happened in CNN world either.
Forget the fact that he actually stood forthright against Vladimir Putin this morning by talking about Poland's energy situation and the idea that America can help Poland get natural gas so they're not dependent on Russia, that doesn't get any coverage.
Nope.
And it's not surprising.
And I want to get into an area of my expertise here, which is radical Islam.
I've been on the show a number of times to talk about this stuff.
If you hadn't guessed, Rahim Kassam is my name, and I'm from a Muslim family, so I know a thing or two about this.
But uh it's it's not uh it's not my faith now, but I am one of those people who will stand up and and talk about it.
And when I see that there hasn't been any coverage on CNN since 2015 about the female genital mutilation crisis that is taking place in my country in the United Kingdom right now.
Five thousand new cases of female genital mutilation in the United Kingdom per year.
New cases.
That's fourteen every day on average.
That is one on average, every one hundred and two minutes.
That means that from the beginning to the end of a soccer match, what you say soccer, I say football, there will have been another reported case of female genital mutilation in the United Kingdom in a first world leading G eight economy.
And you know you're seeing that happen over here too.
I'm sure you guys are paying attention to what's happening in Michigan right now.
Four people now, I think arrested for female genital mutilation there, but this is not CNN's concern.
This is the same network who in 2015, Anderson Cooper, stood up there and apologized for the use of the phrase no go zones on air.
He said, I'm sorry we had some guests on who used the phrase no go zones, and I should have challenged them on it, and I didn't challenge them on it.
Despite France, despite what's going on across France in the northern Parisian suburbs, despite what's happening in Sweden, you remember that, right?
You remember when President Trump said what was going on in Sweden, and the media freaked out and were mocking and deriding him and disparaging him.
And then the very next night, a Swedish suburb, prone to a riot, was on fire, cars on fire, police chased out, and suddenly the media wanted to pivot away.
Despite areas in the United Kingdom, by the way, where you have an almost totally Muslim population, where non-Muslims just do not go.
They just don't want to go.
Anybody wants to challenge me on that?
I'm perfectly capable of taking you on.
You know why?
Because I went to these places and I saw them for myself.
Something that Anderson Cooper, I sh I'm sure, never bothered to do before he gave his little apology on air.
That they will apologize for, though.
That is what they'll apologize for.
They won't apologize for for the you know, chasing down a meme maker on the internet and threatening to dox him, release his private information, his or her, I should say, private information.
No, no, that doesn't get an apology, but an apology for for talking about no go zones, certainly.
You know, if you aren't looking for something, if you don't know what you're looking for, you're not gonna find it.
You know, so when w when I went to these no go zones and you look for the the underground mosques, you look for the signs of sharia being implemented in these places.
CNN's not looking for these things.
They want these things, it doesn't suit their narrative, ladies and gentlemen.
No go zones.
And that is the topic, the subject of a book I have just written with Regnory books that'll be available on August the fourteenth.
You can sign up for updates at Raheem Kassam.com, and you can read about what's going on not just in Europe but what's taking place here in the United States too.
How Ham Tramok, in just outside of Detroit, has the first Muslim majority city council in the United States.
You can read in that book how the demographics are shifting, what it means out on the street in the real world, how the call to prayer, the Islamic call to prayer is being blared out from speakers onto the streets of American cities.
The NICAB, the full face veil, now dominates there in Ham Tramic.
You see it all over the place.
So you can follow me on Twitter at Raheem Kassam, R. A. H E M K A S S A M on Facebook and at BrightBart.com too.
But I don't just want to get right off CNN yet.
I want to hear what the President of the United States had to say today when he was asked about CNN in the press conference in Poland.
Since you started the whole wrestling video thing, what are your thoughts about what has happened since then?
I mean, CNN went after you and has threatened to expose the identity of a person they said was responsible for it.
Like your thoughts.
Yeah, I think what CNN did was uh unfortunate for them.
As you know now, they have some pretty serious problems.
Uh they have been fake news for a long time.
They've been covering me in a very uh very dishonest way.
Do you have that also, by the way, Mr. President?
But CNN and and others, I mean, I know there's NBC is equally as bad uh despite the fact that I made them a fortune with the apprentice, but they forgot that.
But I will say that uh CNN has really uh taken it too seriously, and I think they've hurt themselves very badly, very, very badly.
And what we want to see in the United States is honest, beautiful, free, but honest press.
We want to see fair press.
I think it's a very important thing.
We don't want fake news.
And by the way, not everybody is fake news, but we don't want fake news.
Bad thing, very bad for our country.
What was Jim Acosta's response to this?
Jim Acosta, the White House correspondent for CNN.
Well, he called that a fake news conference.
He insulted the president, your president of the United States when he was abroad on a diplomatic mission.
He's hurling abuse at him.
He insulted the Polish hosts of that press conference, as if the poll would put on a fake news conference.
You know, Jim Acosta says it's not a surprise that the first question he would take from an American reporter and from the friendly news media, friendly reporter who teed up see the CNN question for the president To go off on CNN about fake news made this spectacle feel like a fake news conference.
This wasn't an attempt by the president to seek out a question from somebody who was going to challenge him on the issues.
The next question he took, by the way, from an American reporter was from NBC.
They're not exactly friendly.
He's talking about David Martasco from the Daily Mail, who asked this question.
Is David Martasco friendly?
I think he means not overtly hostile to the office of the President of the United States.
That's what Jim Acosta means when he says friendly.
You know, the other day, David Martasco wrote an article that says six in ten Americans say they don't trust Trump.
Does that sound like a friendly article to you?
Does it sound like a friendly journalist?
These guys, these Jim Acostas of the world, they think journalism is a byword for petulant resistance.
They put Republicans in harm's way with their alarmism and with their rhetoric.
And then they complain when somebody posts a meme mocking them on the internet.
These people have zero credibility left.
They laugh and jeer and sneer and smear at you.
Not at me.
Not just at the President of the United States, at you.
Jimmy Carr from CNN, who was caught by James O'Keefe in one of these videos.
By the way, also the name of a British comedian.
But what Jimmy Carr CNN said wasn't funny.
He said they're stupid as H. You know what?
Caught on camera, ladies and gentlemen.
This is CNN.
Eight hundred nine four one seven three two six eight hundred nine four one Sean is the number here.
I want to hear from you guys on all those subjects and more.
We're gonna be right back after this short break.
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 founder's 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.
Available now wherever books are sold.
Welcome back to the Sean Hannity Show.
800 941 7326.
I'm Raheem Kassam, filling in for Sean Hannity.
I'm the editor of Breitbart London, but here in Manhattan, I want to go to the phone lines now.
Anita is in Connecticut.
Anita, good afternoon.
Hi.
How are you doing there, Anita?
Good.
I just wanted to let you know that my parents are from Poland.
And I it broke my heart when one of the first things Obama did was um tell the Polish people that they were not going to be getting the promised defense missiles.
Bush said that they could.
Actually, he asked who would be brave enough to take these because they're going to need to defend themselves from Russia.
Poland took them.
Obama said no.
And thank you very much, President Donald Trump for bringing them back.
God bless you.
Absolutely, Anita.
And I mean it's it's it's also a topic really close to my heart because in the during the campaign last year, I was looking at uh how President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton were speaking uh about Poland, about the new government in Poland, and about a lot of the Polish Americans, a majority, I think, of Polish Americans that actually support the new government in Poland, this this sort of nationalist populist or more nationalist populist, certainly than the last one government.
It's just extraordinary.
They were treating them with such utter disdain, uh, Anis.
I couldn't understand that.
Yeah, I I got that message loud and clear.
I didn't understand that.
I wondered, I I thought, well, maybe it's because Poland, they understand having an enemy on every border.
They understand uh the danger in opening your borders to people who hate you and want to kill you.
And they that's why they don't appreciate the Polish people.
And and I think, you know, you got to listen to to one of the words of the former advisor to the foreign affairs and uh regional development of the European Parliament, Thomas Perebba, who said that basically the Clintons were just doing Soros' bidding while insulting uh uh, you know, the the Polish who had elected a new government.
Anita in Gennetta, that's a great call.
Thank you so much for that, and you're absolutely right to point out what the president has done today in Poland.
Magnificent stuff.
We're gonna be right back after this break.

Welcome back to the Sean Hannity show with me, Raheem Kassan, the editor-in-chief of Breitbart London, filling in here today for Sean Hannity.
The phone number here is 800 941-7326-800-941.
Sean, I want to go now to our very special guest from the White House, the advisor to the President, Dr. Sebastian Gorker joins us on the line.
Uh, Dr. Sebastian Gorka, thank you so much for joining us here this afternoon.
Uh, I know you're also the author of the uh fantastically uh uh written and well selling New York Times bestseller book, Defeating Jihad.
Uh and I was just talking about my my Regnory book coming up soon on no go zones as well.
And the reason I raised it, Dr. Gorka was because of uh what CNN does and what CNN's been doing in terms of deflecting the president gave a barn storming speech in Poland this morning, so well received, and CNN really trying to bury it on their news website right now, uh trying to talk about Russia on the television in front of me.
Um what do you make of how this is being received in the US press?
Look, uh we're we're used to this and and we really don't care because you know, as as the President said, uh the lying fake news lost, and they're not the president, and he is.
So, you know, whether it's his Twitter account, whether it's the fact that you could go to nine different venues in five different states in one day, uh, we've broken the monopoly of politically driven media.
And this goes uh also to the amazing influence of organizations like Fox, like Breitbart, yourself.
Uh this is this is a new dawn of um citizen journalism and communicating directly to the people who make decisions about the future of our country.
So, you know, let CNN do what it wants to do.
It's become an irrelevance.
I mean, if it w if it weren't for mandatory broadcast at US airports, I think there'd be about twelve people watching it.
Uh Dr. Gorka, I um I wanted to ask you about the speech today.
It seemed incredibly well crafted.
And for those that don't realize, you know, Poland is a very, very traditional and conservative-minded, small c conservative-minded country.
They care a lot about faith.
They care a lot about their family, they care a lot about their traditions, their institutions, their architecture, the preservation of what they deem to be Western civilization.
And this speech really covered all of those things in great length as well.
I think what he speaks for 35 minutes, really focusing on those commonalities between uh conservatism in the United States and in Poland indeed.
Um just tell us a little bit more uh what you think the thinking was behind focusing on those things and why the president was in Poland and not say in London.
Look, the I having spoken to the uh two speech writers involved who crafted the the core of the text before the president left, uh the intent was very, very clear.
Uh Poland is an exemplar of Western civilizational values.
Those things that the President spoke about today, family, faith, nation, uh these are the core values of the Polish people that they kept alive not only under Nazi occupation, but also under communist dictatorship.
And and this is the signal we wanted to send that, you know, the the the age of being apologetic for Western civilization is over.
We have American leadership in the House in the White House once more, and as a result, we're going to stand shoulder to shoulder with our friends who reaffirm those values, and that includes the Polish people and the current Polish leadership.
What does it say about this uh administration compared to the last one?
Um the that there is this focus now, seems to be at least uh an acceptance of an a uh you know gratitude towards um NATO member states like Poland who have been paying their fair share, versus what President Obama did really, which was pull the rug out under them with the missile defense first and really focusing on on Western Europe and Germany and France as his allies there.
What what is the administration thinking in this regard?
Very very simply the following.
Uh we had eight years in which we had a political administration that had a very destructive message, and that message was that America is the problem.
That's why we had the apology tour from President Obama.
Uh we are writing the ship of state and re reasserting uh civilizational confidence with our our fellow members in the West.
So we're not apologizing for who we are.
In fact, we are celebrating who we are and and what we represent and the values that made the West what it is today.
So that's what the speech is about, and that's why it had such an incredible uh response, uh echo from the people in Poland, because that's the spirit that kept Poland alive during the 20th century's most darkest, darkest moments.
Yeah, that's absolutely right.
We're speaking with Dr. Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to President Donald Trump from the White House at the moment.
Uh Dr. Gorker, I want to pivot now um to the G twenty, which is obviously beginning now, um, the President in uh in Hamburg for that.
Uh and there are, of course, the uh the usual protests and usual demonstrations from the anti-globalization activists, but some people are actually saying there aren't as many uh anti-globalization uh protesters there today.
Do you think that's because there's an anti-globalization president in the White House?
I think you know there's a very interesting um trend that we've seen in the last couple of weeks.
And I think that that the um the people who lived in that utopian lala land uh may be losing steam.
I think it's also fascinating that last week after the Supreme Court decision here in America, uh, recognized the president's authority to reinstate the travel moratorium.
We didn't see those screaming pink hat wearing protesters at airports all across America.
There was a desultary uh appearance of some individuals, I think at JFK.
But I think, you know, there is a final realization that the American people have spoken, and that this anti-globalization or or or the pro-globalization movement, let's put it like that, has finally been challenged by the people's voice in many places, whether it was expressed in Brexit or whether it was expressed on November the 8th last year.
So maybe uh maybe some people are coming to their senses, Rahi.
I think you're absolutely right, Dr. Gorkha.
What do we expect this week?
We know Angela Merkel wants to talk about terrorism.
We know she wants to talk about climate change and and not talk about mass migration, and perhaps uh, you know, that's uh an interesting uh topic given that the president went to Poland, a country that has been very resistant.
Uh there was a poll out this week from uh from within Poland that showed that actually more Poles would rather leave the European Union than take more Muslim migrants.
Uh Angela Merkel also wants to talk about protectionism, which might be a slight dig at President Trump's America First narrative.
How do you think these meetings are gonna go?
And then how do you think the meeting with Vladimir Putin's gonna go?
Well, look, I I think, you know, um the message that the President is bringing to Europe is that it's not, you know, America first does not mean America alone.
Um whether you're Poland or whether you're Germany, if you wish to be our friend, if you wish to collaborate with us, then we welcome you with open arms.
But we are doing so uh in a way that re kind of reasserts uh the position and the importance of the nation state.
We're not interested.
The president has said I'm not the president of the world, I'm the president of America.
If you want to work with us, that's fine.
And and the same goes with regards to to Russia.
As uh Secretary Tillerson has said, America and Russia are the most uh powerful nuclear nations in the world today.
As such, we should have better relations.
We would like to have better relations, but the president is a pragmatist uh at the moment, but the likelihood of better relations doesn't look too um how shall I say?
But the odds do not seem to be in in favor of a significant improvement, but we would like to see an improvement because there are some common issues, such as global jihadism, such as the the the bloodshed in Syria.
So you know we would like to collaborate if possible, but the ball is very much in the Kremlin's court today.
Dr. Sebastian Gorka, just uh just before we let you go, is there anything else we should be watching out for, you think, over the next few days?
Um uh this foreign trip.
Is there anything that you can give us an insight into that we sh we m we may not pick up on naturally?
Well, look, I I'm not gonna steal the the the President's thunder, but I think what what needs to be understood is the amount of work that the team here at the White House have put into the statements of the president is going to make, and as such, you know, you don't have to read between the lines.
When the president said what he said today in Poland when he makes his announcements that he's going to make uh in Germany and elsewhere, uh you really can take those to the bank.
So when it's when it's about the future of America and Europe together, NATO, US Russia relations, please judge the president's statements on faith value, because this is a man who means what he says and he does what he means.
Dr. Sebastian Gorka, Deputy Assistant to President Donald Trump.
Thank you so much for joining us here on the Sean Hannity show.
Thank you, Raheem.
Anytime.
Have a great day.
Uh 800 941 7326, 800 941.
Sean is the number I want to hear from you guys out there.
We'll be right back after this short break.
We'll be right back.
Welcome back to the Sean Hannity Show.
I'm Raheem Kassam sitting in for Sean Hannity.
I'm the editor in chief of Breitbart London.
If you didn't know that Breitbar had a London bureau, well now you do.
You can check it out at Breitbart.com forward slash London.
Been checking them out over the course of the break.
You're all being so very kind.
Well, most of you are being very kind, but uh uh I'm not an optimistic kind of guy, so uh I won't focus on the focus on the nasty leftist tweeting at me.
That's not very nice at all, is it?
But that's what they've been reduced to lately, isn't it?
Just trying to dig away, dig away at this president, dig away at people like you and me, the ordinary folks out there who just want the best for Western civilization.
And that's what we saw today, at least in my opinion.
That's what we saw the president stand up for today in Warsaw, a 35-minute long speech about how Western civilization, Western culture, traditions had to be upheld.
He was talking and he said, Americans, Poles, and the nations of Europe value individual freedom and sovereignty.
We must work together to confront forces, whether they come from inside or out, from the south or the east, that threaten over time to undermine these values and to erase the bonds of culture, faith, and tradition that make us who we are.
An extraordinary rapturous applause he got the Polish people shouting his name over and over again.
It was it was like scenes from the campaign trail.
800 941-7326-800941 Sean is the number here.
I want to come back to you guys on the phone lines.
Let's go to Mark in Reading, California.
Mark, good afternoon.
Nice to uh nice to speak with you.
I uh was calling because I actually saw CNN in the process of creating fake news number of years ago.
I was in Washington, DC in May of 2001 during the uh so-called much heralded million mom march against handguns.
Uh on the way to the airport leaving town, we saw the plaza, which was the hub for this uh campaign, this march, and there were about seventy people there.
I think there was more media covering it than there were actual protesters, but we got on the plane, went to Dallas Fort Worth for a connecting flight, and CNN of course is playing throughout the concourse.
And here we see the story about the million mom march against handguns, and they keep repeating the phrase million mom march, and they show this tight close-up shot, obviously staged with the full consent of the protesters, where they jammed all these people close together so it appeared to be standing room only.
They never pulled back for the larger establishing shot to show how few people there really were there.
And of course they kept saying over and over again, Million Mom March.
But it showed, obviously, that they were willing to fabricate the news and slant the story so that it appeared that there were more people there than there actually were.
Hey, Mark, did you see this video that came out of London after the um after the London attack, after that uh London Bridge terror attack and the CNN uh correspondent is standing there, like moving these uh Muslim women into place and giving them placards and saying, right, you stand there just behind me and we'll shoot over my shoulder, so it looks like you know you guys are protesting against terrorism.
No, I did not see that, but I am not surprised.
Absolutely extraordinary.
I found an old tweet from Andrew Breitbart the other day as well that just said CNN is evil from two thousand and nine.
And I just thought, wow, I mean he's no longer with us, but wasn't that man prescient?
Truly.
And you uh you witnessed the same thing yourself, Mark in California.
Thank you so much for the great call here this afternoon.
Let's go to Rhonda in Wyoming.
Rhonda, good afternoon.
Good afternoon, how are you?
I'm very well.
How are you, Rhonda?
I'm doing good.
I have a question, kind of slash statement.
Um my question is, you know, the press, uh CNN and and the others that are producing all this hatred and fake news, and I'm wondering why, because uh at the White House, it's a privilege to be there in the press room.
It's not a right.
And why can we not stand up and say, okay, look, enough is enough.
Either you're gonna report honestly, you're gonna report correctly, and and we're gonna quit this bantering back and forth nonsense, or you're gonna just lose your credentials and you're not gonna be welcome here because we're not taking away your first amendment right, you know, to speech and all this other stuff they think they have all these rights to.
You are limiting um, you know, you're you're saying this is the White House.
Do you know what Rhonda?
I I tend to I tend to agree that that's how we initially feel, but putting Jim Acosta there with his silly sad face every day, and watching letting the public watch this person have a public tantrum every day, I think actually undercut CNN more than removing their credentials could ever do.
800 941, 7326, 800 941, Sean, thank you so much, Rhonda, for that wonderful call.
We're going to be right back here on The Sean Hannity Show after this break.
Welcome back to the Sean Hannity show.
I'm Raheem Kassam, the editor in chief of Bright Bart London.
Signing sitting in for Sean Hannity today in Midtown Manhattan, a glorious respite from the swampy heat of Washington DC, where I am most of the time.
Little bit chilly here, even in midtown Manhattan without uh without a coat on, but uh, you know, come up come up from DC and not prepared, typical me.
But now I'm an Englishman in New York, so you know, maybe maybe we should play that.
Um this hour, ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to introduce you to a story that has particularly moved me.
Um and uh uh just uh one of the most heinous examples of bureaucracy and and socialized health care running roughshawed over and not contemplating the individual and prioritizing life for life's sake, for the sake of life itself.
I'm quoting for the from the Chicago Tribune here.
Eleven month old Charlie God is desperately ill with a rare genetic disorder.
He can't breathe or move on his own.
He's blind and deaf, he suffers from epileptic seizures.
Doctors in London say his illness can't be effectively treated, and that he'll likely die soon after life support is withdrawn.
But Charlie's parents, Connie Yates and Chris Gard, are fighting to bring their son to the United States for an experimental treatment.
And they've raised, I think now over 1.8 or 1.9 million dollars on a crowdfunding website to do just that.
But Charlie's doctors and the British courts and the European Court of Human Rights will not let him go.
Medical authorities are arguing that prolonging his life by keeping on him on a ventilator could cause pain.
The British authorities at this point in time won't even allow Charlie's parents to take Charlie home.
We've got a friend of the family, the friend of Connie Yates and Chris Gard.
Her name is Maria Totalovich.
She's joining us now on the show, and just so that you guys know, uh, the the family hasn't done a lot of press in recent weeks, really have been focused on Charlie himself.
So we're very grateful, Maria, that you've taken the time out to join us today.
Thank you.
Thank you very much for having me on.
Uh Maria, I just want to start with the obvious question here that people will be wondering if they haven't come across this story yet.
Remember, we're all across the United States, and and perhaps there are some areas where this hasn't uh penetrated through yet.
Just walk us through um who is Charlie Gard, what is the current situation?
Was was has anything that I read there from the Chicago Tribune changed in recent days, and why won't the hospital in London let him go?
Right.
Uh to begin with, uh Charlie is um he he's at he's now eleven months old.
He was eleven months on the fourth of July.
Um he is lying in uh in Great Ormond Street Hospital, and he is only attached to a um uh a breathing tube which only pumps air into his lungs.
He's not an oxygen.
Um he's also only fed through a tube, uh, but he's not in an incubator, he's lying in a bed.
Um we all have access to him.
We are all uh stroking his head, we hold his hands, we massage him, we move him around, we change his position.
He what what I would like to say is not exactly correct from the newspaper coverage is that he does not open his eyes.
He has opened his eyes on pretty much every occasion that I've been there, and I've been visiting him on a daily basis for the last two months.
Um and also the statement um that he is in pain uh and that he has been in pain.
Uh I wanted to clarify on two uh levels, two points on that.
Uh firstly, um, from the beginning and up until the Supreme Court hearing and analysis and decision, uh, it was not even it was not stated for sure that he whether he was in pain or not.
Uh the Supreme Court themselves said we do not know if he's in pain or not.
Um the QC, the barrister acting for the hospital also did not say that without a doubt he's in pain.
Uh from my experience and my witnessing of this baby on a daily basis.
I'm a mother of two children, so I I can speak from experience when a baby is experiencing pain.
Charlie is not in pain.
He has not been on painkillers uh for uh the majority of the time during the course of the of the hearings from the High Court through to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court and he he's extremely stable.
That is the most shocking thing.
He's alive, he's growing, he's developing, his hair is growing, his nails are growing, he's warm, he's completely stable.
He hasn't had a single infection.
He hasn't been an antibiotics and to now proactively want to terminate a life, which the hospital actually has a choice whether they will do that or not, because the order, sorry I'm I'm moving on to this, but just to be clear, the order does not oblige the hospital to do anything.
They have a choice.
Maria, I'm so glad that that you've clarified those points because the r the reason we specifically chose that from the Chicago Tribune is because that is broadly the same coverage that you've seen all across the media.
It's where we've seen it in the uh associated press, where you've seen it in the Times, in the mail, um all across the United States too and you you're correct in pointing out and I knew this before because I've spoken to some uh friends of the family as well that there are things in there that are just fundamentally not true.
Why do you think that the truth isn't getting out there?
Why are these lies being perpetrated about a young child whose parents only really want him to give him a fighting chance of living?
Well, I think, as you must be aware, many times there is a reference to limitations on the information that can be provided and certain restrictions imposed by the court.
So there is a reporting restrictions order in place, which is the reason why...
a lot of the detailed information cannot be discussed or spread or disseminated into the public domain.
Also, I have been present in meetings internally with Connie, where she has been, for lack of a better word, ambushed.
That's Charlie's mother.
Yes, exactly, Charlie's mom, the CEO of the hospital and other very senior personnel.
And without any preparation, without any advance notice at random times during the day, where they are absolutely not flexible and absolutely not willing to work with the family
listen to their wishes and looking to impose uh their decisions on this family and how in the past care or lack of care and now has his end of life slash palliative regime will be um will be carried out a lot of people Maria sor sorry just to interrupt there a lot of people just to build on what you were saying a lot of people over especially in the United States will be looking at this as as a as a functioning bureaucracy going going out of control deciding who lives and who dies like this.
We've seen it with the Liverpool care pathway in the United Kingdom before um in the National Health Service and and actually um a lot of people over here and in the United Kingdom were were very disparaging to towards a politician called Sarah Palin over here when she referred to something called death panels.
But effectively when you have a committee of people deciding who lives or dies, that is a death panel.
And while I'm not trying to sensationalize this at all, I think we have to be really really on you know keep our feet on the ground with this my question to you is why is the CEO of the hospital trying to keep Charlie there when his parents his legal guardians want to take him for some level of special treatment and people out of the goodness of their hearts have given millions of dollars to let this happen.
Why?
Why is the CEO doing this?
Uh it's a great question and uh just two points on that.
Firstly uh Charlie, baby Charlie could not ask for better parents in and Connie and Chris.
They have only ever fought, given up their lives to fight to save their baby for the last ten months uh going on to eleven months.
And secondly, as you rightly asked why is the CEO and why is everybody saying that this has to happen.
Well one example of this um bureaucratic uh aspect of the of the of the of the situation taking over is I personally was present in the Supreme Court hearing where one of the justices said that as parents we would do the same.
But as judges, we have to take certain other information into consideration, which is absolutely absurd.
And we are talking about the best interests of a baby, and we're talking about terminating a life by people who do not know the baby, who do not know his situation, and making these decisions, and they don't care, and their lives will not be changed forever, and they don't have his best interests at heart, and they themselves have not gone through the trouble of raising the money,
reached out to the public to to spread information about their baby and about his need to be released by a hospital that is actually holding him prisoner.
It's interesting isn't it initial backing Con Connie and um and Mark they're not looking for state handouts here.
They're not looking for the to the to they're not saying to the President of the United States, you know, we we need your help and we expect you to pay for it.
They've raised the money from people voluntarily giving cash over to save the life of this child and and you can just you can see how how these bureaucrats are just turning their backs on on the human element of this you know what what could end up being a very very serious tragedy here if something isn't done.
I mean the British government siding up looking like they're siding with the hospital and the CEO on this decision at the moment.
What do you say?
I mean g given the fact that I'm pretty certain I'm just guest hosting the Sean Hannity show today, but I'm pretty certain some very influential people listen to this show.
And what you're saying will reach the ears of people who can make a real difference, Maria, what would you say to US policymakers, the US public to put pressure on to help Charlie Guard survive well what I would say is fundamentally it comes to choice and it comes to a choice made by parents who genuinely have baby Charlie's best interests at heart and it's not a choice where we are looking to force uh doctors
to treat where we're looking to dissipate public funds on his treatment as futile as they think that it may be it is simply a choice and and and uh and um uh uh response to our request to release the baby so that he may be taken under the care,
paid for privately by the parents under the care of the of the preeminent doctor that is treating and is willing to treat Charlie for this disease so that we can see results because there's a real chance for him to respond to this treatment.
And any policymaker that is listening or that has a power to to help, please help us in getting Charlie Guide release from this hospital.
This cannot be happening on our watch in the United Kingdom, in England, in London, uh, in an enlightened country and society where we are told we have choice, we have basic human rights, the right to life, the right to privacy, the right to family life, and the right to liberty, and that is all being contravened and breached in this case, in this situation.
Uh, Maria, just before I let you go, is it right in saying that uh Charlie's fight.org is the right website.
Uh yes, Charlie's fight.org, and um even more up to date is Connie Yates' Facebook page or um another Facebook page is Charlie's Fight.
Uh it's a public page, but um uh people who join need to be uh join us need to be approved because there was quite a few um trolls.
Yeah, quite an on-slight of the quest.
Yeah, we we there can be there can be a lot that comes in on these things like that, but it's just so amazing that what you guys are doing, and I really sincerely wish you the best.
You know I'm fully on your side, Maria Tatalovich there, a close friend of actually Charlie Guards and and the family.
She's been in the hospital with Charlie almost every day, if not every day, uh, for the last few months, Maria there.
I'm gonna take a break now when we come back.
Ben Harris Quinney is the chairman of the oldest conservative think tank in the United Kingdom, and I want to get his views on why bureaucracy is out of control in the United Kingdom in our socialized health care service.
We'll be right back on the Sean Hannity show after this break.
Hannity Headlines version of the show that you can take with you everywhere you go.
Sign up today for Hannity Headlines, go to Hannity.com.
Welcome back.
It's Raheem Kassam here, the editor-in-chief of Bright Bar London for the Sean Hannity Show sitting in here, Midtown Manhattan for Sean Hannity today.
The phone number is 800 nine-four one seven three two six eight hundred nine four-one Sean.
I've got Benjamin Harris Quinney on the line.
He's the chairman of the Bow Group, Britain's oldest small sea conservative think tank.
Ben, thank you for joining us here on the Sean Hannity Show.
Afternoon, Raim.
Um, Ben, just want to pick back up on this Charlie Guard story.
We heard that emotional tale from uh Maria Close Friend of the Family about Charlie Guard, about Charlie's parents, Charlie's fight.org is the website if you guys want to go and help out and tweet and Facebook and so on and so forth.
Ben, how can a situation like this be playing out in a modern country in the United Kingdom in the twenty-first century?
Well, it's it's very hard to hear um the story we've just heard.
Um a lot of people haven't picked up on this, but actually just last year there was a case um involving um a little lad called Aisha King.
Um suffering from a very severe form of uh of cancer.
His parents took him out of an NHS hospital uh to the uh Czech uh uh Czech Republic to have treatment.
Um the treatment was successful, but they were arrested for removing him for NHS care.
Um he is now alive and well because of the actions they took, but had they followed the NHS advice and had they followed unfortunately the law um in the United Kingdom, there's a very good chance that their son would now be dead, and uh it's it's very depressing that we are now facing um a very similar case with with Charlie Guard.
Uh I want to thank uh the President of the United States for his intervention, because it has been very important in bringing publicity to this case.
Um and having people in the United Kingdom really focus on it.
Questions have been asked in Parliament, and the government of the United Kingdom is under pressure, and I can uh assure uh your your listeners that we are doing as much as we can um in in the United Kingdom to keep pressure on the government to allow we've got to uh have we've got to leave it there, Ben, but I'm really grateful for you joining us here.
That's Ben Harris Quinney, he's chairman of the Bow Group, Bogroop.org, the oldest conservative think tank in the United Kingdom.
This story's relevant, ladies and gentlemen, because if the Democrats had their way, you would have socialized single payer health care like the National Health Service.
That's why we had to bring you this story, in addition to it being just such an emotional and important thing that Charlie gets to live.
The media went wild for this story this week that the Canadian baby without gender was born, but then not going well for Charlie's fight.
Why is that?
We'll be right back after this break.
We know you never want to miss the Sean Hannity show.

A bite-sized version of the show that you can take with you on your laptop, your mobile phone, everywhere you go.

Your oppressors tried to break you, but Poland could not be broken.
And when the day came on June 2nd, 1979, and one million Pauls gathered around Victory Square for their very first mass with their Polish Pope.
That day, every communist in Warsaw must have known that their oppressive system would soon come crashing down.
They must have known it at the exact moment during Pope John Paul the Second Sermon, when a million Polish men, women, and children suddenly raised their voices in a single prayer.
A million Polish people did not ask for wealth.
They did not ask for privilege.
Instead, one million poles saying three simple words.
We want God.
We want God.
In those words, the Polish people recalled the promise of a better future.
They found new courage to face down their oppressors.
And they found the words to declare that Poland would be Poland once again.
As I stand here today before this incredible crowd, this faithful nation.
We can still hear those voices that echo through history.
Their message is as true today as ever.
The people of Poland, the people of America, and the people of Europe still cry out, we want God.
Welcome back.
That was your president.
President Trump there speaking in Warsaw this morning.
I'm Raheem Kassam, the editor-in-chief of Breitbart London, covering for Sean Hannity here on the Sean Hannity show.
I've got a guest in studio with me, Matthew Tyrman, is a Polish American journalist, a Breitbart contributor, and uh and a man who is suing a paper supported by George Soros in Poland.
Matthew, thank you for joining us here in this studio in Manhattan.
Ah, thanks for having me, Raheem.
Uh Matt, so first things first, uh, you are an expert in in all things Polish, most things Polish.
I I go there a lot and I try and help where I can.
Yeah, you you you're a helpful guy.
We know that.
Um, Matthew, what how what do you think about this speech this morning?
Well, just listening to that clip as we uh came back on air, I got goosebumps.
I mean I was what I was up at 4 30 this morning watching the uh the Andrey Duda, President Trump uh presser, and you know, the polls are over the moon.
They're they're thrilled with how his visit went down in in totality.
Uh everything from the three C's initiative while they were there, uh meeting about a energy trade block they're developing to the speech in uh Platz Khrushchevski, which is where the uprising monument is.
And that was a very painful moment in Polish history when Poles, as Trump alluded to, uh, they fought during uh during during the war against immeasurable odds, and they suffered.
There was huge amounts of deaths, and they kept fighting, as President Trump talked deeply about today.
Look, I mean, the reason I picked that that clip, and you say give you goosebumps.
Yeah, I wasn't quite there, but yes, it's uh it's just an incredibly moving part of the speech that he gave this morning, an incredibly pertinent part of the speech he gave this morning, and and just gives a a uh a bit of insight into how well this White House knows the audience it's playing to, the way the speech was written, the way the speech was presented, the way this has all been played out, the way this is all coming across in Europe, the polls there chanting Donald Trump, Donald Trump.
I mean, it's it's it's a stark contrast from from here in Midtown Manhattan, for instance, or there on CNN on the television in front of me, isn't it?
I mean, here you have a president that is clearly popular with the Polish people, and Polish Americans voted for him in vast, vast numbers.
Yes, they did.
Democrats.
Democrat Union rust belt voters, I think helped swing the swing states.
Why then do you have today the Jim Acostas of the world and the CNNs of the world using the fact that the president is abroad to attack him?
Well, you and I have talked about this in depth that there's uh Okay, but we have an audience now.
Certainly.
Uh there's uh there's a division.
It's it's globalists versus populists, populist being the will of the people, and the globalists are uh very, very centered in the media and academic and uh political, certainly in the leftist political elite, and the media they still don't understand what's gone on in Poland, how Brexit, this referendum, uh this mandate was delivered by the people by referendum, and in the US, the Trump election, they still don't get it.
And Trump saw Poland uh and what's happened there in Central Europe, and he made a conscious decision to go there ahead of London, to go there ahead of Paris, uh Berlin.
Uh, you know, he was in Europe twice, but not on state visits.
He was there for the NATO summit in Brussels, and he was there in Rome uh on his triumvirate uh visit to holy sites.
This was the first state visit that he made, and it was to Warsaw Poland's Central Eastern Europe.
That is unprecedented, and it sends a strong symbolic message.
Uh Dr. Gorka, Sebastian Gorka touched upon it as well.
These populist nationalist conservative movements, which are a rejection and a rebuke against global globalist centralization of power, where the power structures are led by technocratic elite that don't have the popular will of the people's best interest at heart.
The people finally get it after, especially the last ten years after the coming back from the global financial crisis, they they smelled that something was wrong, and this is their answer, their rebuke.
So Poland was a harbinger.
Absolutely.
My team at Breitbart London uh have been again you were up at 4.30.
They're obviously had the benefit of the time difference, but have been covering this all day.
And one of the things that they've picked out is that President Trump was sitting in front of a portrait of King Jan the Third.
Jan Sobieski.
That's what that's the one known for his pivotal role at the Battle of Vienna.
The Siege of Vienna in uh 17th century, uh, I think it was September 11th as well, uh, the historical date exactly, where Jan the Third Sobieski, Polish king, marshaled Polish forces to reject the Ottoman Turkish Muslim hordes.
If they would have broke through Vienna, they would have had entree into all of continental Europe, and it would have looked much like uh Andalusia did under the Moorish Empire.
And you of course had President Trump today saying that we we are going to tackle radical Islamic terrorism.
I just thought it was brilliant.
It was a brilliant pickup by my deputy at Breitbart London, Oliver Lane, who's written this story.
You can see it at Breitbart.com forward slash London.
It's headlined Coincidence question mark.
Polish government seats Trump besides painting of Polish King famed for routing Islam from Europe.
I want to take a call uh if we can.
I want to go to Brian who is in Texas.
Brian, good afternoon.
Afternoon, guys.
How are you doing there, Brian?
What have you got for us today?
Well I'm doing great.
First of all, um I'm not a liberal because I disagree with you not at all.
You're allowed to disagree, Brian, go right ahead.
Yeah, so when did Poland become a welfare state of the United States that we need to provide them with a missile defense system?
Okay, so what you're referring to is the point I made earlier about Barack Obama uh effectively snubbing polls during in 2009 with this uh r revoking of a long planned missile defense system.
Uh Brian the reason I wanted to bring you on now and I appreciate you've been holding is because I I think Matthew uh Tierman who I have in studio is far better equipped to answering this question so I'm going to throw it to Matthew.
Sure.
Uh and it's a valid point.
Uh but there there are sort of two key answers to this.
One is that right now Poland is purchasing a missile defense system, the Patriot missile defense system, which is produced by Raytheon uh and America's certainly uh enabling this purchase this uh this engagement in trade uh but in two thousand nine when they yanked the missile defense this missile defense that was extended to them what to the Polish and not just Poland but Central and Eastern Europe,
Czech Republic was going to have a uh radar facility that would uh see incoming missiles coming from the East, ostensibly Russia this was a reaction to protect the NATO peripheral border because in 2008 Russia invaded Georgia and it was Poland under President Le Kuczynski who tragically died in plane crash in Snowski in two ten.
Look you've had you you had your time this is my call and you're y you know you can say that Russia invaded Georgia Russia would say that Georgia asked them to come in there and help out.
That's you can go back and forth that opinion all you want to but my point is this you know you sat there today the hostess at there today Raheem sat there and talked about how Trump is not a globalist.
And yet here we are spreading military arms to the Saudis all over Europe.
Um we're talking about westernization um I I'm concerned about the United States of America.
Do you believe in free trade?
People that voted for learned about the U Brian I think it Brian I think it's a valid point that you raise.
I think that but there is a difference between projection because it helps the United States and and gratuitous spreading of democracy through boots on the ground in Iraq.
I'm with you Brian by the way I did not like what this president did in Saudi Arabia.
I don't like what my British government does with the Saudi Arabians either we saw a report come out this week that to shield the Saudi government from criticism the British government withheld a report about extremism and Saudi funding extremism all across the world.
So I'm with you on that point.
But you also have to appreciate that there is uh and while believe me I am no globalist I am no fan of these i overwhelming institutions that want to suck and leech sovereignty away from the United States from the United Kingdom I was a big uh advocate of Brexit because I don't like what the European Union is doing.
I actually started the I I I I coined the phrase you sex it because uh the United uh states I believe should leave the United Nations uh and we need to talk about that too.
Uh so Brian I'm with you what I would say however is if Poland wants to purchase the missile defense system from the United States or from a US company then I don't believe that we should be standing here and going well we can't be promoting this in Europe in Eastern Europe because that's just you know you have to trade you have to have you know you have to understand that these countries together they have to actually work together.
It's not we don't exist in total isolation.
We want to exist as sovereign nation states.
Engage in bilateral trade and you need geopolitical stability so that trade can occur.
When that stability leaves then trade suffers GDP goes enough about the Georgia thing to come back on that point.
I'll let uh I'll let uh Brian having had his say there have the last say on that one but uh I certainly don't think the Georgians invited the Russians in although I have to say that I am one of those mega mega frothing at the mouth conspiracy theorists about the whole Ukraine situation, Matthew and there are people listening to this right now going, aha we got him but I was there in Kiev.
I was there during the Madan protests you know I saw the EU flags being handed out by the EU operatives uh in their fancy tents in there as if this was just some sort of grassroots uprising you know things things don't have to be the same whenever we talk about you know similar issues.
Well it's not that true Georgia is not Ukraine.
Absolutely not you know but if you talk to people in Ukraine who are from uh Eastern Ukraine and Donetsk and Kharkiv and they see little green men coming into their cities that is not a free invitation as Brian might have suggested.
Matthew, I just want to get back to what happened in Warsaw with you this morning.
What do you think the takeaways are now from this?
Because obviously, you know, the British government is not happy.
No.
There are governments all across Europe that are not happy, all across the world even.
Well, London's usually the first visit.
And, you know, my own take, and you might actually, I think, agree with me for once, Trump would have gone to London first.
But I think he saw that the populist mandate delivered with the Brexit referendum has been watered down.
And so instead of aligning with sort of pseudo conservatives, what we would call our squish uh Republicans uh as you and I have discussed the Tories don't represent the the hardest line conservative values uh I think he saw that to really find the right alignment of this nation state sovereignty value system where it's engaged on the ground Poland was the place to go.
I think you're absolutely right Theresa May has made a botch job of Brexit and of course uh we are keeping a close eye on that on Breitbart London.
I want to hear from you guys 800 nine four one seven three two six eight hundred nine four one Sean this is the Sean Hannity Show.
I'm Raheem Kassam we'll be right back after this short break welcome back it's the Sean Hannity show with me Raheem Kassam setting in for Sean Hannity today.
I'm the editor in chief of Bright Bar London I have Matthew Tyrman who is a Polish American journalist in studio with me.
Now I wanted to get Matthew to talk about something really interesting that he's doing a lot of people a lot of us jump up and down and stomp up and down and cry and whinge and comment about George Soros and this nefarious globalist uh cabal that is uh really uh perverting nation state democracy but somebody's actually doing something about it Matthew Tierman is doing something about it.
Matthew what are you doing?
Well as you say I decided to uh go after the nefarious globalist cabal uh in uh uh with a little bit of a proxy there's a Polish newspaper Gazette of Aborcha.
They are uh Eurocentric leftists, and they were very in support of the last government that got turfed out for corruption and the last government was bailing them out, uh keeping them alive with financial infusions.
Well, there's been a turnover in power, uh, new government.
So George Soros' MDIF, Media Development Investment Fund, a philanthropic investment entity that goes and puts money into places where free press is under assault, ostensibly.
Well, they wrote a hit piece about me, so I decided to take them to court for a defamation, and uh we had the first round of the case in Warsaw a couple weeks ago.
James O'Keefe came from New York to testify, because they uh they went after him a little bit as well.
We had done an investigation into a Soros funded agit prop protest movement on the streets of Poland and protest of the current government.
So this has uh been playing out.
We've been covering it in Breitbart, so I encourage uh all listeners to go to Breitbart and type in uh Poland Soros, and you'll find a lot of articles.
I would uh say Gazetta V aborcia, but I don't think American listeners are gonna be able to spell that.
I can't even spell that quite frankly.
I'm not sure half half of Polish people can either.
Matthew Tim, and thank you for joining us here in studio and walking us through that.
We wish you the very best of luck.
Not least because you're suing, but you're gonna give the proceeds to charity.
Conservative charities.
Conservatives.
It will hurt them to write those checks.
What a great guy.

A lot of people have been having a lot of fun with CNN this week.
This is specifically what I wanted to get you on about, Ned, because we can't let these guys off the hook.
I we've got to ram this down their throats.
Not literally, by the way, if you're listening out there and you're some liberal reporter who wants to write a nasty headline about the Breitbart guy that guest hosted George Haddish's show, not literally ram it down their throats.
We have to hold them to account.
They have been caught time and time and time again, Ned.
Have they not?
Fake news.
They have everything, everything.
They've run the gamut of immorality.
What's going on?
How do we fix this?
And being unethical.
Well, you guys are doing great work, and I'm gonna be hopefully posting a piece at Breitbart.com later tonight.
On CNN.
And I called them the the the Corleone news network.
I mean, this whole recent incident with this this this person that posted this meme of Trump and the wrestling, and you know, they they've hunted him down and basically made him an offer he can't refuse, either do what we want, or we're going to expose you.
And it's like, oh, so so you're acting as though you're the thought police now.
And what they've done, Raheem, I think the thing that's been interesting to see a couple things.
They've put the memes against them on steroids.
They've literally launched a thousand memes against them.
So instead of, you know, silencing the attacks on CNN, they've put it on steroids, which I think is great.
But just for those that aren't the those that aren't perhaps Twitter savvy, um, and and there are a lot of people out there who either make the choice not to waste their time because it can be a bit of an echo chamber for the liberal left, or it can just be, you know, you can just descend into into insults and 140 characters worth of nothingness.
Um for those that aren't Twitter savvy or or don't care to do it, Ned, just walk us through what exactly happened.
What is this meme?
You know, what is a meme, and and how and how are people fighting back?
Like, give us some examples of what people are throwing back at CNN right now.
So a couple of days ago, uh a Reddit user, somebody online, put together a clip of a video of of Trump when he was doing some WWE promotion, and they had Trump tackling a guy, and they put the CNN logo over this guy's face and had Trump tackling him.
Right.
Well, Trump retweeted it.
CNN lost its mind as though it's a direct attack on the entire media industry, uh, in which Trump was advocating violence when in fact it was really just a funny meme, in which Trump and and the person that put it together were mocking CNN.
And that's a thing, Raheem, as you were saying, as you were saying, you know, please don't take it literally ramming it down your throat.
Right.
The left and the elite lack a sense of humor.
And they cannot stand to be mocked.
They cannot come on question.
They lack a sense of humor, but they lack a sense of proportion.
They lack a sense of reality.
They what do they what do they have?
At this point, we've got to start asking what do they have, not here's what they don't have.
So here's what CNN, I mean, the the thing that's been interesting to see with with Trump versus CNN, and and Raheem, the thing I want listeners to understand is you know, the some of the media are saying all this is a war against the media.
Trump has really focused on three outlets.
CNN, New York Times, and the Washington Post, which have been basically trying to become and and have basically essentially proved that they are the propaganda machine of the left.
They have left behind.
I have made the argument, Raheem, that they have left behind journalism and have become simply opinion, driving their own political agenda.
And you can see this in the last week.
CNN, three three employees resigned, thanks to the good work of Breitbart calling them out on a fake story about Anthony Scaramucci.
Then Jake Tapper runs a fake National Inquirer cover uh on his show, and it all starts to add up.
What uh uh New York Times had to print uh a retraction, a correction on one of its stories.
So the thing that I think we can do, and and Breitbart's doing an excellent job, Daily Caller, some of the other conservative outlets are doing a great job, is basically fact checking CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, and saying these are not the facts, here's the truth.
They're causing stories to be retracted.
Here's what we need to understand, okay?
Here's my question for you, because a lot of people will be O Fay with this issue, but the question that they will have the question that I want to ask, quite frankly, Ned, is the president has been robust in the face of these attacks from the establishment media, from the propaganda press, as I like to call them.
But where does it go now?
Because CNN, I mean, you would think by now it would have lost all semblance of credibility, but there are still people watching, right?
Like, how do we get through to those people that this is a liar media outfit?
Well, we don't we don't we don't stop.
We keep on reminding people, again, we keep this constant drum beat of fact checking them and saying, you know, these things are not true.
I think the thing that's interesting about Trump, you know, and some people on on the right have questioned his use of Twitter.
I love it, by the way.
Um, I think this is a good thing.
I love it too, by the way.
I think I think it's absolutely phenomenal, Ned.
And I wrote an article about this the other day that he can't lose, right?
He simply cannot lose with this tactic that he is employing.
Now I understand that a lot of people get uncomfortable with it, but just because you're uncomfortable with something that doesn't make it not brilliant, right?
Um Exactly.
You know, here's the thing, Ned.
If he if he if he uh attacks them, he pulls them away from everything else, and he makes them obsess about these tweets for 24, 36 hours, changes the whole news cycle, right?
If they don't cover it, if they don't cover his tweets, then he has an unchallenged, un uh you know, disturbed platform to reach millions of Americans every single day, however many times a day he wants to.
He can't lose, Ned.
That's right.
No, and you've made the point, this is really in in many ways a distraction technique, is the media is obsessing about the latest tweet.
He's having victories, he's rolling back the regulatory state, he's appointing new conservative judges, you know, he's all these great things.
Yeah, hate's law, exactly.
Absolutely.
Ned, um, I just want to ask you before we uh before we have to break and before I let you go, um uh for those of you that aren't uh familiar with Ned Ryan, you should be, uh, not least because he's a humorous individual who thinks that men should drink blue moon, and I certainly do not think that.
Um, but Ned, your organization's American Majority and Voter Gravity, do some excellent work.
Just direct our listeners to to where they can find out more.
So they can find us at American Majority.org, and we train people, Raheem.
It's all about building a farm team at the state and local level of good conservative men and women.
We equip people to run for school boards and city councils and county commissions in the state legislature.
And with voter gravity, votergravity.com, it's a national database technology company where, you know, people running for even school board can afford to use up-to-date data, front-in mobile tech, you know, mobile app technology, phones, all of these things are integrated to make them more successful and actually winning races.
Because you know what, at the end of the day, we're gonna have to win politics is politics.
You're absolutely right, Ned, we've got to leave it there.
Sorry to rush you there at the end.
Thank you, Ned Ryan, for that.
I love all your tweets, by the way, at Raheem Kassam.
I am on Twitter.
Uh, the last one I got, great job filling in for hashtag Hannity, hashtag brown British Hannity.
I love that.
The phone number, eight hundred nine four one seven three two six eight hundred nine four one.
Sean, we'll be right back after this break.
A bite-sized version of the show that you can take with you.
Everywhere you go.
Sign up today for Hannity Headlines.
Go to Hannity.com.
Welcome back to the Sean Hannity Show.
I'm Raheem Kassam, the editor-in-chief of Breitbart London, filling in today for Sean Hannity, the lead story on Breitbart London on Breitbart, sorry, at the moment, Linda Sarsaw.
If you don't know Linda Sarsaw, this crazy hard left, hard uh is uh anti-Israel activist who was one of the co-conveners of the women's march right after the election of President Trump.
Linda Sarsor calls for quote jihad against the Trump administration.
We'll be bringing you the clip of that later on in this show.
So don't go anywhere.
I'm gonna come back to you guys on the phone lines now.
800 941 7326-800-941 Sean.
Let's go to Jeff in Michigan.
Jeff, good afternoon.
How are you doing?
I'm doing well, Jeff.
How are you?
Oh, not too bad.
I had to give you a shout out because I heard you're talking about Polish guys working in the Rust Belt and a union.
That's that's me all the way.
Uh Polish guy, United Auto Worker for General Motors.
Uh, I got a Mexican wife, mixed breed kids.
Uh the union, uh, the left hates to see guys like me jump shit.
I was a Democrat forever because my mom and dad were, I thought I was, voted for Obama the first time, uh, then I woke up and becoming a member of the union, you really wake up.
And there's two types of union guys, three kinds.
The legacy, traditional guys that make twenty-eight eighty-six an hour with a pension, good for them, they got it, that's great.
Guys like me, the newer guys, never get a pension, never make top page, get a 401k and uh blue cross blue shield, I'm thankful, I'm happy.
And then you got your temporary workers who are just used to fill the gaps.
It's gotten so bad now that the uh the legacy employees will regurgitate any CNN talking point.
Uh they are they will die left, so many of them because of that pension.
That pension is everything to them, can't blame them.
Yeah.
Uh they got bailed out during the during when GM went under.
Uh so they always will stay left because Obama bailed them out, and that they've been working for thirty years, and that's you know, their nested.
That's going to be what they take care of their wife and their grandkids with and everything else.
Can't blame them.
That'll make no one a bad guy.
Jeff, it's interesting, one of the things you said right at the beginning of the call really resonated with me is that you know, you're you're the left's worst enemy.
You're the best left's worst nightmare in a sense.
Um, and I feel the very same way.
I mean, my name is Raheem Kassam.
My parents were uh Muslim Shia Muslim immigrants from Tanzania to the United Kingdom.
I remember growing up being told by the people in politics and journalism that I was around, you know, prodding their fingers in my chest, hey, you need to be one of us, you need to be a leftist, you need to be a labor supporter, a labor voter because of who I was born to, or because of my genetics, or because of my background, you know, this this idea, very racist idea from the left, really, that you have to have a certain politics that you can't think for yourself just because of your your skin color or or anything like that, Jeff.
So i it really um it really resonated with me what you said there.
Identity politics, and and there's no reason for us to vote left.
There's no benefit.
We will never get a pension.
Uh we were bombarded with propaganda from the UAW and you know, during the election, uh everything from Hillary don't want her guns, but you can go on YouTube and you can see how she's saying, uh, we need to follow Australia's example.
Uh I mean they they lie, lie lie.
We knew what was coming.
Uh to us, if you're in the auto industry, trade is really big.
So they they we weren't taking it.
We were fed up.
You can't lie to us anymore.
We don't care.
There's no benefit to voting left for us.
And it just blows me away that these guys would have been making triple what everyone else has been making for so long, got these big old gun collections, good for them, continue to vote left, and all that's doing is gonna work on chipping away everything that they've worked for.
Yeah, and it's Jeff.
I was I was there in um I was there in Michigan very recently as well, uh, and I was looking into Hamptramak and looking into Dearborn as well.
Um, some devastating things going on there, Jeff in Michigan.
Thank you so much for that call.
Want to get to as many as possible here.
Let's go to Peggy in New York State, um, who wants to pick up on that Charlie Guard story, that uh that really harrowing story we heard about the eleven month old baby in the United Kingdom.
Peggy, good afternoon.
Good afternoon, and thank you so much for taking my call.
Pleasure, go right ahead.
I was so happy that I heard um the Sean Hannity show covering the Charlie Guard case.
I've been following it closely for quite a while now, and there is many followers on the Facebook page, uh Charlie's Army USA.
Mm-hmm.
So I think it's just horrible what they've done to the parents because the parents are the ones who should be.
Peggy, do you worry that this is what this is what is coming down the line for the United States if the Democrats get their way and it goes to single payer and it goes to a national health service, just like we've got in the United Kingdom, you will effectively have death panels like this.
Absolutely, I'm worried about it.
And I know that the Terry Shivo Foundation is also following this case closely.
Yeah.
Um similar to what happened to Terry there.
So yes, I was very glad to hear that the coverage was there.
And there's going to be a rally and a thank you to President Trump on Sunday in New York City.
Outside of St. Patrick's Cathedral, they're going to gather at eleven A.M. What time when is that?
Saturday?
It's Sunday.
Oh, Sunday, sorry, Sunday, eleven AM outside St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City.
There you go.
There you go.
I can I think I can see it from the window here.
Peggy in New York State, we're gonna leave it there, but thank you so much for that call.
I want to just quickly squeeze in Mark in Michigan too.
Mark, you've got about a minute if you can uh if you can squeeze it in there.
Sure.
Thanks for taking my call.
I'm a physician, and first want to say uh you might want to pull over before you hear my comments.
I do not believe that health care is a right, and I think we need to have a big discussion about uh what it means for it to be a right.
Secondly, I'm a pediatric surgeon and I've cared for children similar to uh Charlie.
And um I again I think that this is demonstrating if we're considering health care a right, uh that society needs to take care of them.
Society's gonna take make decisions for you about your loved ones, your children, uh, and that we need to to grow up and and um uh learn to take responsibility for our own health care.
Um it's the golden rule.
Whoever has the gold makes the rules, and so if the government's gonna be paying for your health care, then they're gonna be deciding who lives and who dies.
It i it you can't get away from it.
Right, Mark in Kalamazoo in Michigan, thank you so much for that.
You make such a great point.
And obviously, you know, look, I'm thirty-one years old, ladies and gentlemen, and I've lived with the National Health Service all my life.
And there are some great nurses and great doctors within the National Health Service, but it's the system, it's the socialized welfare system, letting these people down, letting us down, and you guys have to stay as far away from it as humanly possible, as far as I'm concerned.
800 941 2 uh sorry, 800 941326.
We know you never want to miss the Sean Hannity show, and now you never have to.
Just sign up for Hannity Headlines.
A bite-sized version of the show that you can take with you on your laptop, your mobile phone, everywhere you go, even to your liberal in-laws' place in Vermont.
So um after a few hours of that, you'll be glad you brought Sean along to sign up today for Hannity Headlines, go to Hannity.com.
Welcome back.
It's the Sean Hannesy show with me, Raheem Kassam, the editor in chief of Bright Bart London, filling in for Sean Hannity today in Midtown Manhattan.
Uh every so often, uh, when you're hosting a radio show, something comes up in the middle of the show.
Almost every day, really.
Um, but uh this clip that we're about to play, I I just had to break from the plan we had for this segment because it is so outrageous, so incendiary, so despicable and disgusting, that I think everybody needs to get to grips with who the real enemy is in this country.
In the United States, just like in the United Kingdom, we have a fifth column in this country.
And I want to play you what Linda Sarsaw, a Palestinian American anti-Israel activist who helped organize the women's march the day after President Trump's inauguration, said this week at the annual conference of the Islamic Society of North America.
Let's play the clip.
There is a man who once asked our beloved Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alehi was settled, he said to him, what is the best form of jihad or struggle?
And our beloved Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Was said to him a word of truth, truth in front of a tyrant, ruler or leader.
That is the best form of jihad.
And I hope that we, when we stand up to those who oppress our communities, that Allah accepts from us that as a form of jihad, that we are struggling against tyrants and rulers, not only abroad in the Middle East or in the other side of the world, but here in these United States of America, where you have fascists and white supremacists and Islamophobes reigning in the White House.
The words of Linda Sarsour, one of the co-conveners of the Women's March, ladies and gentlemen, as if anything else needed to be said, declaring a jihad against the US government.
When are we going to get to grips with the fact that there are people out there who want to change the very fabric of our countries?
I told you guys before the break.
My parents were immigrants into the United Kingdom.
I integrated, I assimilated.
So did they.
Meanwhile, you have people like Linda Sassor.
Listen to the vitriol, listen to the hatred in her voice as she speaks about the people working in the White House.
The people who the people of the United States in electing President Trump chose to lead this administration.
And that is how she speaks about them.
And there is the obvious retort.
I've heard it all before.
Ladies and gentlemen, believe you me, ladies and gentlemen, believe me.
Leaving Islam, you end up knowing more about Islam than being a practicing Muslim.
So I've heard this all before.
That you can excuse this sort of speech as, oh no, we just, you know, the Quran speaks of opposing tyranny, and that's what I'm getting at.
Rubbish.
You use a word like jihad in a major national speech like that, knowing full well its connotations, especially here, especially in the United States, where your jihad killed thousands of people just blocks away from where I am right now in Manhattan.
You use the word jihad, and then you pretend you can hide behind some sort of some sort of deflection, some sort of sophistry.
I don't think so.
800 941 7326 800 941 Sean is the number.
I want to come back to you guys on the phone lines.
