All right, glad you're with us.
Loaded up a busy news day today.
Our toll-free telephone numbers 800-941 Sean, you want to be a part of the program?
We've got this large caravan of illegal immigrants from Central America that we are going to deal with today.
The president addressing president saying he's going to send the military.
A Mueller Dudd, he got his first sentencing today for this Alex Van der Swan.
He's sentenced to a majestic 30 years in 30 days in prison.
You would have thought it was the biggest issue ever if you're waiting for the lead up to how long he was going to get in jail.
We'll get to that.
Rod Rosenstein, we now have the internal authorization that he gave to his BFF Robert Mueller to use the discredited Trump dossier to probe Paul Manafort.
And again, it's proving a point that we have been making.
This basically is and has been and continues to be a phishing expedition.
The wife of Andrew McCabe, I beg to differ with her op-ed in the Washington Post that we'll touch on today, and we'll give you some of the details of.
Also, Sarah Carter is going to be reporting for us today.
Communications, Strzok Page communications have now been discovered by congressional investigators, revealed that the FBI was improperly coordinating with the Department of Justice officials in an effort to pressure those officials to expedite the foreign intelligence surveillance warrant on the Trump associate, Carter Page, according to these new documents obtained by Congress and revealed by the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee.
And it shows that Strzok and Page were discussing the FBI's difficulty in obtaining the Pfizer warrant as it relates to Carter Page.
And the FBI obtained its first warrant on October 19, 2016, just before the election, three subsequent renewals.
But, you know, these were first released at the end of last week, obtained by congressional investigators.
And when you get to the bottom of it, you can see that a person that we now have discovered, this guy Loffman, who's now been fired or has resigned, I guess, to spend more time with the family.
Anyway, he's a DOJ official who worked on Clinton-Russia investigations.
He says he's stepping down for personal reasons last month.
Now, the question is, well, now we're seeing he's up to his eyeballs in all of this too.
And then it goes right to the White House.
And what did President Obama know?
And when did he know it?
Because that, again, it keeps coming back to the fact.
And this is why Susan Rice did her CYA.
Obama said to do everything by the book.
Obama said, do everything by the book.
For all of you who will be reading this in the days, weeks, months, and years to come, Obama said in the meeting, do it by the book.
I don't believe that for a second.
Not for one second.
All right, but let's start with.
You got this large caravan of illegal immigrants now from Central America marching all the way through Mexico.
Now, it looks like it's stopped.
And one of the main reasons is that the president said, you better stop it because we have a lot of control over the economy in Mexico.
And after, I never, I don't think it's the great deal that everyone else has said it was.
And the president wants to negotiate freer, fairer trade deals.
And while Mexico temporarily was not in the original, okay, treat us fairly or you're on the list.
Anyway, it's obviously going to happen.
But there's so many different reasons why this is important.
And the president rightly saying and giving a warning that these caravans of immigrants coming from Central America, that, you know, America cannot be stolen.
We are a nation of laws.
And I love the fact that I'm reading these people that want to come to America.
And I don't blame a lot of them that come from poverty.
And I know people that come from Central America.
And I know people that come from conditions that no American would ever want to live in.
And I know that in many ways they see America as the land of milk and honey and the streets are paved with gold or at least gold and opportunity.
I get it.
But there's a legal way to do it and an illegal way to do it.
And for Mexico, that has the most stringent anti-immigration laws on the books to be allowing people to march through their country on their way to the American border says everything you need to know about whether or not Mexico is going to be an ally of the United States.
Anyway, they have the absolute power not to let this happen.
And what they're doing is they're potentially setting up a confrontation at America's southern border because this president's not going to allow caravans of people to just walk across our border.
And that means that the military is going to be brought in.
And the people that are setting this up, well, that would be the Mexican government.
Because Mexico, if you're from Central America and you get caught in Mexico, the first thing that they do is either put you in jail or throw you out of their country.
And then they lecture America on how we ought to be treating people.
Now, the president warned today that unless Mexican officials block the caravan full of illegal immigrants currently heading for the southern border, he's going to deploy the U.S. military.
And he will stop these people from crossing into our country.
Now, he told reporters gathered at the White House, we're not going to be, we are going to be guarding our border with our military.
And he said, that's a big step.
We can't have people flowing into our country illegally, disappearing, and never showing up for court, which is pretty much what happens.
That's what our court system allows to happen.
Now, let me tell you another thing, because you have Border Patrol agents.
They overwhelmingly support President Trump.
There's a pollout of Border Patrol agents.
89% of line agents support a wall system in strategic locations to secure America's border.
Only 7% disagree.
And these are the guys on the front line.
You need to watch some of these shows.
I mean, it really is similar to what I saw with my own eyes, you know, the dozen times that I've been down at the border.
Anyway, so the president will use the military if, in fact, Mexico allows this to continue on.
But, you know, they're putting the president in a horrible position, which probably is something that they want to do.
And the Wall Street Journal today pointed out that the Justice Department has now notified immigration judges that they're going to begin evaluating their job performance based on how quickly they close cases aimed at speeding up the deportation process and reducing a lengthy backlog in this.
You know, if somebody is arrested for entering the country illegally, they basically get a ticket and they're told to show up to court.
Well, you're not a legal citizen.
And 99% of them never show up for court.
So what you got to do is keep them in custody and send them back.
You know what they do in Australia?
Let's say you're seeking to enter Australia illegally and you're coming in or off the coast or New Zealand.
What they do is they meet you out in the water.
They're very nice about it.
They give you food, water.
They'll give you medical assistance if you need it.
And then you are told to turn your boat around and go back to where you came from.
And that if you want to apply, you've got to apply legally.
And pretty much that's what Mexico does.
You know, the audacity of Vicente Fox and others lecturing America on our horrible treatment of immigrants is just a joke.
I mean, the hypocrisy is breathtaking.
Anyway, the Justice Department now has notified these immigration judges that they got to start doing their job.
Now, one other point, I found this in an article.
I forgot where I saw this today.
Somebody sent it to me.
I apologize, whoever wrote this.
But, you know, there's been everybody's been claiming for the last week that there's no way President Trump will be able to use the military or military funding to build the promised border wall.
But guess what?
There's a report by the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service that the Defense Department was repeatedly enlisted to help with border wall construction throughout the 90s and the early 2000s.
And according to this report, the military has been involved before in putting up barriers along the U.S.-Mexican border without explicit authorization from Congress, according to a 2009 government report.
The Department of Homeland Security, the Defense Department have previously worked together on border wall construction, according to the report by Congressional Research Service during President Barack Obama's first year in office.
And essentially, Obama, by the way, used to have my position on immigration.
He used to have our position on controlling the borders.
But it became politically expedient for him to change his position.
Anyway, and essentially, the Customs and Border Protection provided money and land while divisions of the Defense Department provided design and labor.
And this is a national security issue.
That's the way it's got to be treated.
And essentially, Customs and Border Protective provided all this.
And the report claims that the Border Protection entered into a memorandum of agreement with the Engineering and Constructing Construction Support Office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
And the National Guard and a military task force were also involved.
I'll read it to you.
The Defense Department's Engineering and Construction Support Office managed several components of the construction process for customs and border protection, including planning, acquisition of real estate, drafting the environmental protection plan, designing the project, and formulating the engineering cost, overseeing the construction process, and enforcing the appropriate warranties on most of the tactical infrastructure projects.
National Guard units, military units from the Department of Defense Joint Task Force North provided the labor.
DOD uses projects as part of their training regimen, leveraging their ability to deploy tactical infrastructure and thereby providing zero labor costs to the Border Patrol.
Under the agreement, Customs and Border Patrol bought materials.
They acquired the land.
The Army Corps of Engineers did the engineering studies, provided the manpower, provided the machinery that were used in installing the fencing.
So, I mean, we have precedence by other presidents.
And now Mexico claims it's dealing with the migrant caravan.
That's the latest stop.
They're going to stop it.
Well, the president now has to threaten Mexico with withdrawing from NAFTA and also threatening foreign aid to Honduras as he continues to focus in on what would be a showdown at America's southern border.
You know, on some other points here, Bill Clinton, you know, all the talk about the census question, Bill Clinton census in 2000.
Well, they had a questionnaire that included questions about citizenship.
And the Department of Commerce announced that it would include the question among citizenship status in the 2020 census.
That sparked outrage among Democrats.
The only problem is Bill Clinton's Department of Commerce asked about citizenship in their 2000 census.
I mean, the left is so hypocritical on so many different issues.
So the president, as I see it, doesn't have much of a choice because what other defense does he have but to send the military down there?
And if the caravan continues and people are angry and they try and break through the U.S. military, well, what's going to happen?
Well, then that's going to precipitate, you know, potentially people dying and all of it being facilitated by the governments in Central America and by the Mexican government because Mexico has the toughest immigration laws on the books.
So we'll see what happens as this thing unfolds.
You know, it's getting ugly.
800-941-Sean or Tofree telephone number.
If you want to be a part of the program.
All right, we have a lot coming up today.
We'll get to that.
Sarah Carter has a new blockbuster investigation, investigative report she's going to share with us today.
We'll get to that.
Also, we will talk to some of those people on the front lines down in California dealing with California sanctuary state law.
And we'll also be checking in with Kaylee McEnaney and Jeffrey Lord about the abusively biased media in this country.
Now, 77% of Americans believe that there's a lot of fake news out there.
That's up a whopping like 12 points from just last year.
You know, the idea that there are people that would love to see this crisis precipitated with this caravan of people literally marching to America's border.
You know, there's a political story out today, and I guess one of the president's more contentious policies.
Remember, the president had his terrorist travel ban, and it's gradually being implemented as all the judge shopping has gone on in the process.
Anyway, but there has been a dramatic reduction in immigration to the U.S. from terrorist hotspots around the world.
For six countries targeted as the, quote, travel ban by various iterations of the president's travel ban, the drop in visa visas that we have granted have been steep, although none, you know, steep is just steep.
By the way, I see the sales staff is in for more candy, and that did not take long at all.
This is the third trip of the day.
But anyway, U.S. visitor visas from countries that are named in the three travel ban policies have plummeted since Donald Trump took office.
And by the way, the travel ban, remember, we have a process of vetting people that come from countries.
For example, if you come from a country and you've been taught since you're young to abuse women and mistreat women and they're fourth-class citizens and women can't drive and marital rape is not a crime in some countries and in other countries, gays and lesbians are killed just for being gay or lesbian and Christians and Jews are persecuted.
Why is it so god-awful in some people's minds that we want to know that you're not bringing those values that directly contradict our constitutional values and that you believe you want to bring them into America?
Is that such an awful thing?
All right, so Sean Hannity wants to go to Saudi Arabia, and I think women should be treated equally.
I think gays and lesbians should be treated equally and left alone.
And I think that Christians and Jews should be able to build churches and temples.
And am I allowed, and they don't get to ask me if I want to instill those values if I go to Saudi Arabia.
Good luck to me.
They're not going to take me.
We did make an effort to interview the crown prince on his recent trip to the United States.
Our invitations have been graciously declined.
I have a lot of questions for them.
Anyway, this handful of countries, you know, Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, also visitors from North Korea are barred.
But the idea is we get to vet you.
And we get to know that you're going to come here and want to be a part of our family, not here to help destroy us.
We'll continue.
All right, 25 now till the top of the hour.
800-941 Sean is our number.
You want to be a part of the program.
People are finally beginning to get it.
Politico points out the credibility of the Democratic anti-Trump destroy Trump media now is falling like a rock.
And, you know, I think why CNN hates me so much is because, you know, we pointed out the 195 times in a day they said the shh hole and actually said the word.
I think they hate the fact that we montage the creepy questions of Anderson Cooper.
I think the same questions that he gave to Karen McDougal.
I mean, he basically asked every question except, well, can you describe what it looked like?
You'd work for Playboy for some time.
You can see him looking at you.
Would he call you?
He would call me.
I would call him.
Vice versa.
So you had his phone number.
When he called, did his number show up on the phone?
Were you attracted to him?
So the sex was consensual.
You said you sort of ended on a strange note.
So what happened after you had been intimate?
Did he actually try to hand you money?
Did he ever compare you to any of his kids?
This is a hard question to ask, but you said you had sex that first time.
All these times you saw him, this was an ongoing sexual relationship.
Absolutely.
Can you estimate how many times you actually saw him?
You were intimate.
Yes.
Dozens, many dozens.
There's another tough question.
And again, you don't have to answer it, but it's been raised with other people.
Did he ever use protection?
Are we really going to ask these questions now?
I mean, it's a consensual relationship.
Unbelievable.
So now 77% of respondents in a Monmouth poll released yesterday, which is up from 63% just a year ago.
And 31% said they believe the media outlets spread fake news regularly.
And, you know, another 46%, yeah, it happens.
Fake news happens.
And they're beginning to see that this is happening more and more.
And how could you not, you know, see this for what it is?
How could you not?
And I think people are now beginning to realize that the media, the Trump-Russia collusion story, has been a witch hunt.
You know, we have new details out today, and we'll get to this in the next hour.
But, you know, we see the, oh, Mueller's big, big sentencing happened today.
The media thought they were hyper-ventilating this coverage as it relates to Alex Vanderswein and his sentencing today.
He got 30 days in jail.
30 days in jail.
Yeah, great work.
Robert Mueller, great use of taxpayer dollars.
You know, it's funny, yesterday I talked about, you know, there's going to be a civil war in this country.
Everybody in the media went nuts.
Hannity said a civil war.
Hannity's, he's, he said it.
I can't.
And I describe the civil war as we're not even going to be able to sit at a dinner table when you have relatives that disagree without throwing mashed potatoes as weapons at each other and throwing maybe turkey legs and stuffing and turnips and everything.
It's going to be a big national food fight, civil war.
So my Cracker Jack team here on the Sean Hannity show, they actually said, we've heard everybody talk about the coming civil war.
Robert Mueller, this is now dividing this country between those of us that see Mueller, his abusively biased team of Democratic donors, and the witch hunt that has been ongoing, and the media that is frankly nothing but an extension of all things liberal and all things Democrat.
And the American people are fed up.
And yeah, it is dividing the country.
It's dividing it to the point where, you know, you're either on one side or the other.
President now, 50% in the Rashmuson poll, 49% don't like him, 50% love him.
Although I do argue, and I think others agree with me too, that I think Trump's poll numbers are actually, he polls lower than what his real poll numbers would be.
And I think he does because some people just don't want to deal with telling somebody, yeah, I like Donald Trump.
I think it's that simple.
But I mean, listen to the media.
They say civil war every day.
Listen.
We are in the midst of a cold civil war in this country.
A political and cultural civil war.
He is clearly trying to ignite a civil war in this country.
A civil war is breaking out in the Democratic Party.
It started a civil war in the party.
We have almost a state of civic civil war in this country because of the deep divisions in the country, politically and socially, that have been exacerbated by this past election campaign.
And I think we're going to see an ongoing civil war.
It's Donald Trump that's really causing the civil war.
He's attacking his fellow Republicans.
Tonight, we're watching a civil war between mostly southern senators.
If, in fact, the Democrats lose on Tuesday in Virginia, that it will lead to close to a civil war.
Currently engulfed in a civil war.
You know, we got a civil war with at least my civil war had mashed potatoes in it.
It does not have mashed potatoes.
I did so.
I said that.
No, because all you eat is broccoli and cauliflower, and no one's going to get hurt by that.
I also eat asparagus, and I have egg whites.
That's what I eat every day.
Sounds like some dangerous food.
I eat this twice a day.
Mashed potatoes have some heft.
I'm on a diet.
Do you mind?
You're always on a diet.
And I come in today, and Linda, I said, I don't want anything for lunch today.
Nothing.
I never listened to you.
And then there's bacon, and then there's egg whites.
Bacon is protein.
And then an entire batch of potatoes.
Sounds good for the stomach.
It settles.
Okay, my stomach is settled.
I feel fine.
Thank you very much.
Sounds like an American meal to me.
No, I've just decided that I'm sick of having a fat stomach and I'm getting rid of it now.
I'm in the process of it.
So I'm doing two things.
I'm drinking less beer.
I didn't say no beer.
I said less beer, less filling, and I'm drinking light beer.
And number two, I eat for breakfast and for dinner the same thing.
I grill up some onions and then I cut up some asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower.
And I put in two egg whites, and I eat that as my breakfast and my dinner.
And I don't eat lunch.
What's wrong?
Why are you all looking at me like I'm nuts?
It actually tastes great.
Put some salt on it.
It tastes phenomenal.
Do you see how much you need to oversell the idea?
Why am I, I'm not that much more likely to do that?
That's when you know it's not a good idea.
You know, like when I come into you and I go, hey, Sean, I want to do this segment.
Here's what it's about.
You're like, oh, that sounds great, Linda.
I don't stand in your office for 10 minutes because, first of all, you don't have the attention span.
That's right.
And second of all, if it takes me that long to explain it, it's not good.
Okay, tell me what's wrong with eating broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, and egg whites.
I don't need to tell you.
Our audience already has.
It has protein.
Obviously, I'm getting stronger.
Just say no one wants to share a bathroom with you.
That's all.
I saw the president over the weekend, and he actually said to me, He said, don't use my bathroom, Sean.
No, he didn't say that.
He said, man, you're getting strong.
I said, yeah, well, I work out five days a week.
And that's how you get strong.
But because you work out so hard, I feel like you need more food.
Like, at least three meals a day, at least.
Let me tell you what the truth is.
The truth is, is I've tried every diet.
I've tried new treatments.
Okay, I call BS.
Let me tell you.
I've tried the Linda diet.
No, you don't try anything.
You do something for two days.
You're like, it's not working.
It's not working.
I'm going to try something else.
You have the patience of a net.
You need to let something cultivate, work on you a little bit, rehabilitate your metabolism.
Right now, you're just crippling yourself.
And with you pouring everything with tons of salt on it, you're retaining tons of water.
Okay, that's not my problem.
That's your problem.
You're bloated.
Oh, my gosh.
You know, do I have to get beaten up by the staff every day?
I'm trying to live a healthy lifestyle here.
My genes are not great.
Although, my parents did nothing for their health.
Nothing.
My father never worked out in a day in his life.
I mean, he'd look at a treadmill and he goes, forget it.
I'm not doing that.
Well, you don't do the treadmill either.
I don't do the treadmill, but I do boxing every day.
Although you do run down Sixth Avenue, so that's something.
I do.
I run pretty fast.
But boxing is a very strenuous workout.
It's a cardio.
It's a cardio workout.
It's a cardio workout.
Now you do the Peloton.
I do, yes.
And you only do it two days a week because you're too lazy.
You don't want to do it five days a week like me.
That's what people say when they think of me.
Linda, lazy.
Why don't you do it five days a week?
You're right.
I'm going to do it seven days a week, and I'm going to start eating cauliflower and broccoli, and you and I can hang out all the time.
It's going to be a very bad thing.
I'm just saying I love it.
If I have my way, I would just like to eat anything I want whenever I want, but my metabolism is such as I've gotten older that I've got to monitor my intake of food.
You're the only person that's making fun.
Every doctor will tell you to eat more vegetables.
Every doctor will tell you to eat more fruits and vegetables.
Have you checked your hormone imbalances?
Oh, geez.
No, I have no imbalances.
Thank you very much.
I know Lauren has done a great deal of research on hormone imbalances.
Yeah, okay.
You would feel like a 20-year-old if you did that.
Oh, so you want me to start getting shots of testosterone and human growth hormone?
Not human growth hormone.
Why not?
You always take it too far, Sean.
That's the problem.
You can't just have one piece of broccoli.
I got broccoli, asparagus, and cauliflower.
No one come in the room anymore.
Suzanne Summers swears by the fact that she and her husband take small daily doses of testosterone and human growth hormone.
You're going to start using the thymasta?
No, if you read about it, and I've read about it, I'm not recommending this for anybody, but if you read about it, what you'll find is many people view it as the fountain of youth in some ways because as you get older, as you age, you produce less of those hormones and artificially putting them in your body.
Now, if you read deeper into it, they don't like the cardiac impact of it, you know, 20 years later.
If you continue to take testosterone, human growth hormone, you may risk having a heart attack.
You have to offset that by drinking a lot of wine then.
All right.
You people, listen, why am I talking to people?
And I'm looking at, they have, let's see, moonshine and Johnny Walker Black sitting in front of me.
And that's what you guys are.
I'm listening to you people.
You know, the only one that's not weighing in on this is Jason.
Why not?
Why are you so quiet today?
Jason doesn't even know the proper weight on his dumb bar, dumbbell, whatever it's called.
Yeah, well, once you get it right, dumbbell, don't bar.
You do what you want.
Nobody's going to talk you out of doing anything, so you just do you.
Okay, I appreciate that.
All right, let's get to our phones as we say hi to Tracy in Flagstaff in Arizona on the Sean Hannity Show.
Hi, hi.
What's up, Tracy?
What's going on?
Hey, I want to talk to you about the real motivation behind inundating America with illegal aliens from around the globe.
And I don't think it's being spelled out near enough in the media.
These illegals and their generations are just going to overwhelmingly be Democrat voters.
Listen, I'm well, listen, that's what the Democratic Party, their long-term strategy is.
And they think if we have some type of amnesty, odds are pretty high that people will vote Democratic.
So they're doing it for votes.
I don't dispute that.
And nor do Democrats.
They even are open about it.
It's all true.
You know, and I'm hearing, you know, how much they care about the immigrants.
And I mean, honestly, they don't.
They just want the votes.
And that's what I wanted to say.
All right, Tracy.
Carl is in Newport, Ritchie, Florida.
What's up?
How are you?
I'm great, Sean.
How are you?
I'm good, sir.
What can I do for you?
I was in the military for 10 years, seven in the Navy and three in the Air Force.
Oh, thank you.
Every branch.
Thank you.
And every branch has civil engineers and they have people that build walls and bases all over the world.
Why can't we use the military?
We're paying them anyway.
We took an oath to serve and protect our country from foreign domestic.
And why can't we just use them to build the wall, save the money, and be done with it?
We can, and it's going to get done.
And if they can't do it and Republicans don't go back into Congress, use the nuclear option and fund it, then they're going to pay the price at the polls.
They'll blame Donald Trump, but they'll have nobody really but themselves to blame.
All right, Sylvia is in beautiful Destin, Florida at the Panhandle.
What's up, Susan?
How are you?
Sylvia.
I'm sorry, Sylvia.
I once got so sunburned and destined in Fort Walton Beach, literally, I was like shivering in pain.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You should come down.
There's so many people here.
We can barely get down the road.
But anyway, I want to tell you, you're eating like not good.
Oh, boy.
You're not getting enough protein and you're working out, so you're going to deplete your muscles.
No, no, no.
I put egg whites in every meal.
There's a lot of protein in egg whites.
There's more in the egg yolks, and there's lute and the egg yolks that help your eyes.
Well, about every third meal, I'll put use the egg yolks.
But you will have muscle depletion.
You're not getting enough calories for as much as you work out.
And also, if you use testosterone, you'll feel a lot better.
You'll feel younger.
It helps with the collagen and keeps you young.
I listen, I've read all about it.
I'm not against it.
I know my doctor's going to have a fit when he finds out I'm talking about all this.
You know what he says?
Why don't you just go refer to why you even bother calling me when you could just refer to Dr. Google?
He mocks me because I read it on Google.
He goes, go talk to Dr. Google about your latest symptom.
Obviously, I'm only a doctor that's done this my whole life.
Why should you listen to me?
Go talk to Dr. DeGoogle.
You need a second opinion, Sean.
You definitely need a second opinion.
Oh, I have a lot of opinions here, and everyone is against what I'm eating, apparently, which I didn't know it was such a bad thing to eat vegetables and egg whites.
Oh, man.
All right, you know what I'm going to do?
I'm just going to make a steak in everybody's honor tonight and celebrate.
800-941 Sean Tolfery telephone number.
All right, we're going to go to California, the sanctuary state, and this potential showdown with this caravan and what it could mean.
Then Sarah Carter has new investigative work she's going to share with us today.
And we have the best montages on how corrupt your media is.
That's all straight ahead.
All right, when we come back, we head out to the sanctuary state of California as we check.
You know, this poor woman who's a supervisor from the 2nd District in Orange County was called the B-word and more because she believes in enforcing the rule of law and federal law as well.
They'll join us.
Then we'll check in with Sarah Carter.
Kayleigh McEnany, Jeff Lord, join us today.
Sarah's got some breaking news and your calls: 800-941 Sean.
Straight ahead.
Congress will get their act together and get in and create some very powerful laws like Mexico has, and like Canada has, and like almost all countries have.
We don't have laws.
We have catch and release.
You catch and then you immediately release, and people come back years later for a court case, except they virtually never come back.
So we are preparing for the military to secure our border between Mexico and the United States.
So Mexico has, at this moment, it seems they broken up large numbers of that particular caravan, and we'll see what happens.
But we're prepared at our border.
We cannot have people flowing into our country illegally, disappearing, and by the way, never showing up to court.
So the court case will be set for two years or three years, if you can believe this.
And they never show up for the most part.
Very rarely do they show up.
Plus, if you notice, they're trying to hire thousands of judges.
So every person that walks across and they're taught to say the right thing, they walk across and then they go and they're supposed to go to court.
So we're supposed to have thousands of judges because we cannot have them taken out.
We have to bring them before a ridiculous court system.
We have to change our policies fast, just like we have to change on sanctuary cities.
If you look at what's happening in California, they're having revolts out there because there are a lot of areas, Orange County and others, they don't want to have sanctuary cities, which are guarding criminals.
All right, that was the president from earlier today, and he's now making a lot of announcements.
The president vowing to use the military to repel this caravan or so-called caravan, migrant caravan that's coming into the United States.
Similarly, the president has been very strong in just stating matter of factly that the laws of the land are going to be used.
He went on to say, too, that the United States, our country is literally being stolen, and Mexico has the absolute power not to let these large caravans from Central America enter their country.
They must stop them before they get to their northern border.
And then, on top of that, the administration now pushing to speed up the deportation process.
One interesting piece of information that I pointed out earlier is that the military was used for border wall construction under Presidents Clinton and Bush.
Mexico claims they're, quote, dealing with the migrant caravan, but they really haven't done a whole lot if we really look at it.
One interesting development, too, as it relates to the census question.
Bill Clinton used that question in 2000 asking people about their citizenship.
That seems to have been forgotten in all of this.
And then the question of whether or not the president would be able to allocate, for national security purposes, money from the Defense Department so that he can finish the entire wall and build the whole thing and appropriate all the money for it.
All right, joining us now, Colonel Gregory Raths is with us.
United States Marine Corps retired as the current mayor pro tem of Mission Biejo, California.
Brandon Judd is the president of the National Border Patrol Council and 20 years active Border Patrol veteran.
Michael Steele is with us, supervisor from the 2nd District of Orange County.
And all of you, thank you for being with us.
Let's start with you, Gregory Retz.
Let's talk about Mission Biejo and what's going on there in particular.
Absolutely, Sean.
Last week, City Council, there's five of us, and we voted five to zero supporting a resolution to support the concept that this law, SB 54, which is called the Trust Act here in California, is bad.
And we're in the charter city of Los Alamitos.
They voted on an ordinance to not obey this law.
And we also joined the Amicus brief supporting the federal lawsuit against our state.
And people here are fed up with this sanctuary city that's going around the state of California.
Yeah, but the bottom line, Brandon Judd, is that the state of California has decided that federal laws don't matter to them.
They're not only not abiding by federal law, but they're even going as far as to aiding and abetting criminal illegal immigrants that are in the criminal justice system in some way by not allowing federal authorities to know when they're letting them out.
What we have to do is we have to look at Attorney General Sessions and ask him to look at into prosecuting these individuals that are in fact aiding, abetting, that are letting these individuals loose onto our streets.
Lawsuits need to be filed by citizens of California, Kate Stanley's family, so on and so forth.
And if we do that, we'll be able to put the requisite pressure to ensure that the proper changes are made.
Yeah, and I'm trying to understand.
Michelle Steele, supervisor from the 2nd District in Orange County.
Explain to me, Michelle, you know, what you've been doing in Orange County.
And I don't know the undersheriff.
I had him on TV.
You guys have taken a lot of heat and even a threat from the Attorney General in California that they're going to go after you for just trying to enforce what is the law of the land.
Exactly.
You know what?
As a supervisor, we have 3.2 million people living in our county.
Since January till March, there's 172 criminal illegal aliens were released from the jail.
And they used to be transferred to ICE to get deported.
Now they're walking on the streets.
This is very dangerous because government's first duty is public safety.
So that's why I put the resolution together.
And then, you know, we are moving.
Actually, we're going to join Jeff Session or, you know, we're going to do our own.
But California's bad law, SB 54, that is actually holding hands of law enforcement that their hands tied and they cannot really do anything means when it's a bad law, we have to change it.
That's why we're all working together, especially not just Orange County, but Fresno City and other counties are joining us at this point.
Foxnews.com has an article that you've been called a racist and then the B-word for opposing the sanctuary law.
Who called you that, Ms. Steele?
One of the, you know, one of the person, I'm first-generation Korean American, and I speak Korean and Japanese, my second and English, my third.
I was never, never called as a racist, but you know what?
It was racist big B, and that was really amazing.
And you know what?
People attacked me.
One guy called me yesterday and he said, you know, Orange County is opt-out from the state.
He wants to opt out from the county.
I said, you have a choice.
You can do whatever you want.
He was screaming at me that, you know what, I'm wasting taxpayers' money.
No, actually, state is the one that actually brought us into the chaos.
What are you going to do if the state attorney general comes to arrest you?
You know what?
I have, my husband is a great attorney, and we have a great legal system.
And what he's, you know, Pasara is, you know, doing whatever he's doing is wrong.
So I know I'm going to win no matter what.
Well, let me ask you, Gregory Ratz, you have a background in the Marine Corps.
The president said he will use the military, if possible, to stop, if need be, to stop this caravan of people.
How do you do that?
Absolutely.
We've got 35,000 troops in Korea protecting that border.
Why can't we put a few down on our border?
It just doesn't make sense.
I spent 30 years in the Marine Corps, and I've always advocated that why don't we protect our own border?
I've had four combat tours.
You protect all these other countries.
Let's protect our own.
And just what's going on here in California, Sean, is that over the last 15 years, over 190 bases, shipyards, hospitals, airfields have been shut down in California.
This state does not support the military, and I'm very upset with the way our state is going, especially with this resolution.
But there's a bunch of citizens heading down to the border as we speak to ensure that this caravan does not cross our border.
Listen, I understand the citizens going down there, but you're looking at a potential for some type of violence down there, and nobody wants to see that.
And it's really being precipitated by people from Central American countries.
But really, the people to blame in all of this would be the Mexican government for allowing this to happen.
Because Mexico has very strong immigration policies.
They throw you in jail.
They kick you out of the country.
There's no questions asked.
And then they lecture America about how we should be handling such things.
Well, we have to look at what's currently going on, and you have to, whether you're left, right, or in the middle, if you are an advocate of border security, you have to be impressed what President Trump has done.
He put the pressure on the Mexican government.
The Mexican government, it appears that they've broken up that caravan.
They had no intention of doing that.
What we know is we know that the Mexican government is corrupt.
We know that this is a multi-billion dollar industry.
We know that they facilitate the smuggling because that money comes back to the Mexican economy.
And so when President Trump put that pressure on the Mexican government, they did in fact break that up.
And so you have to say he is doing the job that he was elected to do.
Now what we have to have is we have to have the Republicans in Congress get behind him and pass the laws that are necessary to close the loopholes that don't allow catch and release anymore.
Because even if we do have the National Guard down on the border, if somebody steps one foot into the United States illegally, we have to take them into custody.
And if we take them into custody, they're going to ultimately be released under the catch-and-release program.
That's where the— Well, the problem is you can't let them in the country.
That's the issue that is at stake here.
Here's what the president said about potentially using the military to guard the border.
And we are going to be doing some things.
I've been speaking with General Mattis.
We're going to be doing things militarily until we can have a wall and proper security.
We're going to be guarding our border with the military.
That's a big step.
We really haven't done that before, certainly not very much before.
But we will be doing things with Mexico, and they have to do it.
Otherwise, I'm not going to do the NAFTA deal.
NAFTA's been fantastic for Mexico, bad for us.
We've had our car plants moved to Mexico, many of them.
We make tremendous numbers, millions of cars in Mexico that years ago didn't exist.
They closed in Michigan.
They closed in Ohio.
They closed in other places.
Now they're starting to move back because of what we've done with regulation and with taxes.
They're starting to come back into our country in a big way.
But I told Mexico very strongly, you're going to have to do something about these caravans that are coming up.
And I just noticed that the caravan now, which is toward the middle of Mexico, coming up from Honduras, is breaking up very rapidly.
That's because Mexico has very strong immigration laws, as we should have.
We should have those laws.
We don't have.
We have immigration laws that are laughed at by everybody.
And it's got to be changed.
We need the war.
We need the protection.
And we have to change our immigration laws at the border and elsewhere.
The great irony, Michelle, is that Mexico deals with illegal immigration in a much harsher manner than we do.
I mean, they kick people out immediately, or they put them to jail and then kick them out.
And then they lecture America on how we need to have open borders.
Isn't that amazing?
Because, but you know what?
We should look at the situation with our critical eye on our immigration system.
What has to be updated and fixed?
And President Trump is actually doing a great job because he wants to withhold financial aid to Mexico, Honduras, and other Central Americas who send all these illegal aliens and drugs to the United States.
And that's a good thing.
And he wants to deal with the NAFTA.
You know what?
And then he demands Congress to act now.
I think this is the opportunity that Congress to take action right now to fix it.
Of course, as an immigrant, as a first-generation immigrant, we welcome refugees and immigrants, but there always need to be go through thorough.
How many years did it take you and your family to get into this country legally, Michelle?
I came in as a student, and it took three years for me.
So, you know what?
But they went through really thorough all my background check, and that has to be done.
But every person coming into the United States is who they say they are, is the most important.
Because I always go back to the public safety.
You cannot just bring everybody in, especially people just walking in cross-Mexico border.
That's not going to work.
So we really have to fix the immigration.
More with Michelle Steele, more with Brandon Judd, and more with Gregory Rass all coming up here.
Sarah Carter has some new developments as it relates to Deep Stategate.
That's at the bottom of the hour.
Then Kaylee McEnany and Jeff Lord will check in with us.
800-941-Sean is our toll-free number.
You want to be a part of the program.
All right, as we continue with Colonel Gregory Rass, U.S. Marine Corps, retired, is currently the mayor pro tem of Mission Biejo, California.
Brandon Judd is the president of the National Border Patrol Council and 20-year active Border Patrol veteran, Michelle Steele, supervisor from the 2nd District of Orange County.
And I thank you all for being here.
All right, so assuming that Mexico, now out of fear of economic repercussions, is now going to break up this caravan and not allow people from Central America to make it to the border where a conflict would take place.
Now the president rightly has said that the military is going to now guard the U.S.-Mexican border until a wall can be built.
Now, there is precedence for this, Brandon, and that is under the Clinton administrations and under the Bush administrations, the military was used in part to build the wall.
I worked side by side with the military as they were building some of the walls in Arizona.
I also worked side by side with the military as they augmented our operations with eyes and sight.
And what that did was that increased the certainty of apprehension.
When we arrest more people than get away, we put a dent into the cartel's bottom line.
And if we can continue to drive the prices down to where they can't afford to function, we'll win this war.
But the problem is, again, we have to have the wall because you have to have a physical barrier that's going to keep them out.
Because even if we have the military holding hands on the border, it's kind of like playing Red Rover.
If somebody comes up and there's a big push, one foot into the United States says that we have to take them into custody.
Well, the idea we ought to be able to do with Australia and New Zealand, what they do, and that's send them back on their merry way and not waste a lot of time.
Thank you all for being with us.
We'll continue to monitor all of this when we come back.
Sarah Carter, the latest on Deep Stategate and new developments today that'll blow your mind, that and more straight ahead.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
A lot of big news as it relates to Deep Stategate as we continue to literally unpeel layer by layer of this onion.
One big issue that came up today, the media was breathlessly reporting all day that the first Russiagate desperado to get convicted as part of Mueller's fishing expedition has now been sentenced in court.
I guess this guy, what's his name?
Alex Vander Zwan.
His sentence was handed down.
Reporters, I guess they must have thought it was going to be 10, 20, 30 years in jail.
After all, this was the first punishment ever announced as part of the investigation into Russia's supposed hijacking of the presidential election.
Anyway, so, well, what did he get?
What was the sentence?
A big fat 30 days in jail.
I've seen longer sentences for people that have speeding tickets and drunk driving.
Now, we have other developments that we are following today.
One has to do with the U.S. Department of Justice naming an experienced former federal prosecutor.
This is back in, when was this?
This was back in 2014.
All right.
Federal prosecutor oversee counter espionage efforts, part of the broader restructuring of the national security prosecution team with cyber attacks and the threat of sensitive technology ending up in the wrong hands.
This is around the time that Devin Nunes was warning and writing in the Washington Times and warning then President Obama that the Russians actually wanted to influence the 2016 elections.
And of course, he scoffed at the idea and he did absolutely nothing in the end.
But the point is, David Laughlin is an important name that we now have to understand and remember here because, well, Sarah Carter is here to explain why.
Sarah Carter has a new column out today.
How are you?
I'm doing great, Sean.
Thank you so much.
Yeah, David Loftman is an important name because he was basically the guy at the DOJ that was really in charge of the investigations and had a lot of say.
He was also very close to Sally Yates, who you know was fired by President Trump when she refused to basically adhere to his immigration policy at the time.
Loffman actually left the DOJ in March.
He was a long, long time served with the department.
When you say left, he left this past March and nobody knew about it.
Yeah, nobody really knew about it.
It was really kind of quiet.
He kind of walked off into the night.
But he was mentioned often, and according to congressional sources that I've spoken with, in text messages between Peter Strzzok and Lisa Page, some of which have already been revealed and some of which are in my story.
And I don't think a lot of people paid a lot of attention to what was going on with Loffman and what was going on with the FBI, particularly when they had no exposure to these text messages.
And now we see that there was actually conflict, and they were after each other, the FBI and the DOJ, on trying to get these FISA warrants, particularly the FISA warrant, on Carter Page in October, which eventually they got in October 19th, 2016.
But before that, there was a lot of push and pull between the FBI and the FBI was really strong-arming people within the U.S. In other words, we have new communications that were discovered by congressional investigators show that the FBI was improperly coordinating with the Department of Justice officials in an effort to pressure those officials to expedite the foreign intelligence surveillance warrant against the Trump associate,
Carter Page, and the House Oversight Government Reform Committee.
These text messages between Strzzok and Page, once again, were discussing the FBI's difficulty in getting that warrant to spy on Page.
Explain how that dovetails into Laughlin.
Well, so Loffman then text messages, you know, back and forth, I mean, and I guess discusses this, not text messages, but discusses this with Peter Strzok.
And Peter Strzok then text messages Lisa Page and tells him, you know, hey, look, I've been dealing with Loffman on this.
He's really aggravating me.
That was in March.
And then back, and then in September, he text messages her again and says, you know, I'm hearing from Loffman that they're not happy with how we've handled this, and they're kind of holding this off.
You know, the Eastern District of New York is holding this off.
They were actually part of the Justice Department's group that was handling these warrants.
And all of a sudden, out of nowhere, what you get is somebody else from the Justice Department who is involved in this goes to, actually goes to the White House, visits the White House, and that was several days after these text messages are back and forth, these exchanges between the two FBI agents, and visits with President Obama.
And then less than a month later, you get the FISA warrants on Carter Page.
And the question here is, how much did President Obama know?
How much did people in the White House know about this investigation?
And more importantly, Sean, how involved were they in this investigation?
All right, I want to slow it down again just for clarity here.
So these new communications, so here you have this guy, Laughlin, then you've got the lovebirds.
Page and Strzok are texting each other.
I'm getting aggravated at Loffman.
A 2016 message from Strzok to Page says, and congressional investigators are pointing out that this new communication suggests that the conflict gets deeper in the following months because now we're getting close to election time.
And then in September of 2016, Lisa Page is saying, oh, just make sure I understand where things are redacted, trying to walk Axelrod, Matthew Axelrod, a DOJ prosecutor.
And this is where the DOJ and the FBI are coordinating, if you will, because he's so angry with how this came over to them.
And I told her not to put herself out too much.
If Matt wants to call and yell at Andy, meaning Andrew McCabe, who she's supposed to be the attorney for, that's fine.
And Axelrod was the top, former top deputy to then acting Attorney General Yates.
So when you put it all together, take it from there.
When you put it all together, you see how they were coordinating amongst each other, according to congressional officials who are looking at this evidence.
I mean, and this is, and remember, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
There's so much more here that they haven't been able to see.
So a lot of this has been a real big struggle for congressional investigators on all the committees, both the House Intelligence Committee, the House Oversight Committee, the Senate Judiciary Committee, and others like Representative Goodlott, who are now forcing the hand of the FBI to turn over the documents.
So what we're seeing here is basically on the surface, a coordination, and you're 100% right.
You know, when they reference Andy, they're referencing, you know, former FBI Director Andrew McCabe.
all of the consequential and incidental things that he was involved in during this investigation.
Let's go back to Matthew Axelrod because he's very important.
I mean, he was the top deputy at that point in time to acting Attorney General Sally Yates as well.
So we see, you know, you have David Loffman, who is significantly involved, has a very high-level security clearance, is in charge of the, you know, the Hillary Clinton investigation, as well as the Russia investigation into the 2016 election, Russia's involvement or non-involvement, depending on how you look at it, into the 2016 election, and mainly Trump.
And then you have Matthew Axelrod, who's there, again, a top deputy to Acting Director Sally Yates.
So they're all connected.
And now you have all these people connected to the highest levels of the FBI and the investigation into Russia.
And then all of these people are also connected based on the evidence that we see now, based on the documentation that we see now early on in the investigation with the White House, the FBI, and the CIA.
So what about Loffman stepping down on all of this?
How do you interpret that?
Well, that's really interesting because they never revealed Sean the reason why.
It was basically for personal reasons, for family reasons, and he just kind of walked away from it.
Now, I've talked to sources who have said as things started getting heated, as his name became more apparent, and I believe he also has been interviewed by the Inspector General, that he decided himself to walk away before things got too hot and heavy, and he decided to just move out because this is a man that has spent and dedicated his life to the law.
I mean, he was a top-notch prosecutor.
He dealt with national security issues.
And obviously, his involvement in this is very concerning to some.
You know, I've spoken to people who have said that, you know, David Loffman is kind of the missing link in all of this.
I've spoken to others who said, look, Loffman, I don't think would ever violate the law or leak.
But as we've seen from the evidence that has appeared both with the House Intelligence Committee and the other committees investigating this, we've seen a number of people that I don't think people expected to find information on who were actually leaking or who were coordinating, one of them being James Clapper.
But the thing is, he worked on the Clinton-Russia investigation.
Absolutely.
He was heavily involved in the Clinton-Russia investigation.
He was also heavily involved, like I said, you know, in the internet when they were actually investigating Hillary Clinton for her use of a private email server.
What do you make of this measly 30 days in jail For Alex von Von der Zwan.
I think that's really, I think you were right when you said that there were people expecting this big jail sentence or expecting some kind of major revelation.
It was like a slap on the wrist.
I mean, what you can see right here is that the special counsel is trying to collect notches, once again, for one count of lying, right?
It was the same thing they did to Flynn, the same thing they did to George Papadopoulos.
It's the same reason we're hearing from attorneys and other people who are saying, please don't let President Trump speak to Mueller or the special counsel's office because what they're looking for is just anything that they can get him to entrap him in or corner him in, which is what we've seen with all of these other cases.
I was speaking to a source who at the time was very close to Flynn and said to me, I was asking whether or not would Flynn's attorney be willing to withdraw that guilty plea?
Do we know anything?
Are we hearing anything?
A lot of people that were close to Flynn would hope that his attorney would do that, or maybe there's some new strategy in place, you know, with all of this evidence coming out.
One of the things they did say, you know, with all of the revelations about McCabe, particularly the fact that we know now that he lied four times to the investigators and the inspector general that were conducting this investigation, you know, everything that he's touched is kind of like fruit from the poisonous tree.
So how are they going to handle it?
We've got to take a break.
We'll come back.
I want to ask you about Andrew McCabe's wife and her op-ed that she wrote in the Washington Post.
We'll get to that.
Well, more with Sarah Carter.
At the top of the hour, we're going to cover media bias like nobody else can, and we've got the best montages to prove it.
An amazing Hannity tonight at 9, and we'll take your calls in the next hour as well.
800-941-Sean is our toll-free telephone number.
As we continue, investigator reporter Sarah Carter is with us.
All right, so the wife of the former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe has taken to the op-ed page of the Washington Post, and the president attacked my reputation.
It's time to now set the record straight.
Now, her husband was in a position that he had to do all sorts of things that were involved in politics.
And I read it closely, and I know she's outraged and that the president's talked about it, but she did get $700,000 in money raised for a Senate campaign in the state of Virginia by the Clinton's best friend.
And that guy's name is Terry McCullough.
Her husband did work for the FBI.
She's claiming that, well, the investigations into the Clinton email server scandal will later.
I'm not so sure I buy it.
What are your thoughts?
No, I don't.
And I mean, I understand that, you know, as a wife, she's probably outraged.
She probably does feel like her life has been turned upside down.
Nobody wants to take that away from her.
Those are her feelings.
But her op-ed is patently false on its face if you look at it.
You know, she said that there was, you know, that these presidential tweets and the twisted reporting based on the fact that she ran for office, you know, was the reason that her husband lost his job and a significant portion of their own.
Her husband lied under oath, as I understand it, four separate times when he was being investigated.
Absolutely.
And that's the reason that he lost his job.
And, you know, if you're talking about collusion or that there's some type of, you know, if the she's she's claiming that the president went after them, you know, and went after her husband and that other people are going after her husband.
No, just look at what happened during this alleged investigation into Trump collusion with Russia.
I mean, if anything, what we've seen is insurmountable evidence.
I mean, Sean, insurmountable evidence that there were people within the Obama administration colluding with the FBI, with others, in order to kind of corner President Trump.
We saw with the Hillary Clinton investigation that there was no real investigation.
I mean, even when Comey, even when she was interviewed, she was interviewed.
She didn't have to take oaths.
They didn't have transcription of Hillary Clinton's interview.
They had long written her exoneration.
And just two days after the so-called interview, it ends up that Strzok, who did the interview along with one other FBI agent, that Strzok with Paige hated the president, but also were working in conjunction with Andrew McCabe.
And the same issue rose with Andrew McCabe.
Remember, there was a lot of concern among sources that I spoke with in the FBI, both former and current sources within the FBI, that Andrew McCabe was making the same type of disparaging comments, you know, before and after the election, and that there was a lot of internal bias inside the FBI.
So even the foundation, and now that we see all the evidence pouring out, I mean, regarding the dossier, that even Christopher Steele, the former ex-British spy, admitted that he didn't verify anything in the dossier.
We're going to have more on this tonight.
An amazing column by Sarah Carter, her website, sarahacarter.com, and we link it to Hannity.com.
We'll have a lot more on that.
All right, Clyde, you're with us.
Sean Hannity Show.
Write down our toll-free telephone number.
It's 800-941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, where are my earpieces?
I have, yeah, in there, right there.
We have some breaking news, A. Penn, thanks.
At this hour, this is just unfolding before us.
I've started getting reports out like 30 minutes ago that there might be an active shooter.
It turns out it's confirmed that there's an active shooter at the YouTube headquarters.
Now, this is in San Bruno, California, around San Francisco.
And the shooting appears to have happened in an outdoor cafe on the grounds of the facility.
First reports are that this is a woman that is involved in the shooting or the person involved shooting.
Police were seen laying down evidence markers near the seating area of the cafe, and police near the area report hearing shots and police activity.
Lockdown procedures are in full effect.
The local KPIX5 reporters out there say that at least two Homeland Security units had responded.
Police radio transmissions describe casualties now being taken to local hospitals.
San Francisco General Hospital spokesperson Brent Andrews said the hospital received patients from the incident, couldn't confirm an exact number.
And Stanford University Hospital says they have received four or five patients from this incident.
One person that works at the facility wrote on Twitter, I guess about 4 o'clock Eastern, a little after 4 Eastern, 1 o'clock on the West Coast, that he heard shots, saw people running while at his desk before barricading himself inside a room with other co-workers.
And anyway, let's go Fox News Channel.
They have their live coverage.
Let's go to that for just a second and get an update.
And she was running, could barely run.
But he shot like three times at her.
The person shot, but the person who was inside this shot her.
So then when they shot her, he missed two times.
And then he shot that girl in the leg.
And then I ran over there by the trees.
Then I went up there.
Then the guy that was working there, he was going to go inside.
But they were having a party.
Wait, so who was having a party?
Okay.
You two were having a party.
They were having the luncheon, a party.
It was just going to start.
And then, so the girl ran in there.
Then she ran into Cars Jr. to the side door.
We opened the door and let her in at the same time.
And then, when she was in there, we took a bunch of napkins, like a stack of them like that, put them on her leg.
Then, right after that, I ran to the side, went to the back, and I ran over there.
And when I ran over there, I got pictures on my phone, but my phones died.
But then the girl, there's another lady, she's laying on the opposite side in the courtyard to the north side of the courtyard by the entrance of the doors.
And she was, then she's dead, she's dead because when he shot that person, he whoever was it was it shot her shot that person like 10 times.
Did not stop.
I mean, it was didn't stop.
It didn't stop.
It was like massive.
He shot her 10 times.
The second person shot the person at least 10 times.
Then after that, I heard four more shots and then it stopped.
And then I looked, and then we went over there and I looked.
And then, and there was no cops, and there was no enforcement here whatsoever.
So this is in the Carl's Jr. parking lot?
No, this is in the courtyard, in the back courtyard.
Of YouTube.
Inside.
Inside.
Yeah, yeah.
So this was, this happened during a YouTube party at their headquarters.
Yeah, inside.
Inside.
In the courtyard.
And the shooter walked in from outside?
No, the person was inside.
He was inside already.
Yeah, yeah.
And he just opened fire.
Yeah.
And where were you?
Right across the street.
What were you doing?
Getting ready to order my food at the speaker at the loudspeaker for Carl's Jr.'s.
So I was getting ready to order my food.
We were deciding what we were going to eat, right, on a menu.
And then all of a sudden, you're like, oh, man, it was just like two, three shots.
And then, like, within 30 seconds after that, or 40 seconds after that, then I seen the girl running out.
And then she was shot in the leg.
Then the other people that were behind me, they opened the doors, let her in, pulled her in, and they grabbed a bunch of napkins.
So I come back and I checked on the girl, and then after I checked on the girl, she's like, Yeah, yeah, she got shot in the leg.
So then I ran back over there, and then I'm looking inside, and then when I'm looking, then the other guy goes, Oh, she just shot the other person, and that person got shot 10 times.
I mean, so you could see into the courtyard.
Yeah, yeah, I got the pictures on my phone.
What did the shooter look like?
I didn't see the shooter, okay, in my pocket.
Can I take a look at the what you have?
Yeah, if you want to, I mean, but it's dead, but you've got to charge it.
Let's see, got an iPhone?
No, I got a disturbing account of what has apparently been in.
All right, that is an eyewitness to this shooting who described that in one particular case.
This happened apparently at the YouTube headquarters where they were having apparently some type of gathering or party together in a courtyard.
Remember, this is San Francisco, the weather's warm, and apparently the shooter shot two to three shots.
We don't know what happened in that initial shooting.
And this eyewitness witnessed one particular woman getting shot at least 10 times.
And from what we understand, that person has not survived.
This is very preliminary, and we don't want to make any mistakes here.
Then four more shots rang out.
One other person was shot in the leg.
We're told by a local hostess at a nearby restaurant and pub that, in fact, we saw lots of cops, firefighters.
We didn't see any people, just a lot of trucks, a lot of street movement.
And you can see there's a heavy police presence there.
Now, Jonathan Gillum and Don Bangino, Dan Bongino, join us right now to talk about it.
You know, it sounds again like something that was premeditated, pre-planned.
And, you know, we haven't gotten any word yet at this point whether or not they've been able to apprehend the shooter.
Dan.
Yeah, Sean.
I mean, that's, you know, after the Columbine shooting, everything changed.
Now it's go to the problem first, maximum to the problem right away, take down the problem.
Even if it means bypassing potential victims and even serious medical emergencies, people who've been shot or fell or otherwise, in order to take them down right away.
Because as we've seen in a lot of these active shooter cases, excuse me, they won't stop, Sean.
They won't stop until they are confronted by a police officer or someone else trained with a firearm to stop that incident.
After that, you'll usually see them either stop what they're doing, engage the good guy with a gun, or sometimes they'll kill themselves.
So, yeah, all the tactics changed after that.
And, you know, we'll see as the facts come out what exactly happened here.
I think motive obviously is still far from that.
So we'll see.
The Hollywood Reporter is now reporting that a number of patients with gunshot wounds have been received at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital as part of this active shooting situation at YouTube headquarters outside of San Francisco.
There have been no patients, quote, dead on arrival.
The Hollywood Reporter is now put out there.
Earlier, of course, police responding to this active shooter.
Police tweeting about the incident from earlier today, warning people to stay away from the area.
And nearly an hour after YouTube employees first began to tweet about the incident, the field division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives tweeted that they've responded to this particular incident.
So all law enforcement are on the scene.
One staffer at YouTube, who asked not to be identified, told the Hollywood reporter that lunch was just wrapping up when fellow employees began sprinting through the parking lot and they have been evacuated now to another building.
Another product manager tweeted that he was sitting in a meeting and heard people running and it seemed serious and not like a drill.
And he also claimed to see blood on the floor and on the stairs.
So Jonathan Gillam, again, we don't know at this point.
Well, hang on, we just, yeah, we still know there's an active shooter.
We have not been able to.
Well, now the city manager has just said that the area is relatively secure, so I've got to imagine.
Now, Hank, this is breaking news.
The female suspect is deceased at the scene, which was what Dan Bongino predicted might happen just seconds ago.
Female suspect is deceased at the scene, and we have an unknown number of victims at this time, Jonathan.
Yeah, I tell you, after listening to the different witnesses on the news, one of the things that we have to always guard against is the different things that these witnesses see.
It's best to, you know, as we're doing now, waiting on the official word.
But this from the very beginning of the way that some of these witnesses were describing specific people getting shot sounded to me like either workplace violence or a domestic type of incident because certain people were being targeted.
You don't sit and shoot one particular person ten times, the active shooters don't in most of these situations.
So it very well could be that the individual killed themselves, which sometimes happens in domestic incidents, or the law enforcement got in there and eliminated the threat.
Either way, we're seeing that this type of a response, the actual shooter response, was followed correctly in this situation.
But it is interesting how YouTube is the place where this happened with their recent anti-gun stuff on their website.
And there's going to be a lot of political stuff coming out about this almost immediately.
Well, listen, it's instantly going to be turned into yet another gun debate, but I go back to what I've always said.
And if we really want to protect people in churches and in schools and at the workplace, the answer is you've got to do a full security threat assessment of the area that you need secure.
You need IDs.
You need metal detectors.
And you need concealed, carry, retired military police in a heavy presence.
And in this day and age, I mean, we could do it in our schools, I think, relatively cheaply because you could just give these guys that volunteer 15, 20 hours a week.
They don't have to pay any federal, state, or local taxes, period.
And I guarantee you, people would be signing up just for the service aspect of it because, you know, that's in the heart and soul of every military and police officer I know.
Dan Bongino, as I look at this, again, I go back to fundamentals here.
And if there's an active shooter, would you prefer to know that there's armed, concealed, carry, trained professionals on scene?
And my answer is yes.
I'd want them there.
Yeah, Sean, I think reasonable people can agree that a gun-free zone sign is not a deterrent to a criminal.
It's nothing.
It's meaningless.
It's a plastic or metal sign with some words on it.
It might as well say gun full zone.
It doesn't make a difference.
Forget about gun-free zone.
But you're right.
I mean, two basic things, again, reasonable people should be able to agree on when it comes to securing schools, banks, or otherwise, or sports stadiums, is you have to control two things, Sean.
You have to have access control, number one, at your entry points.
You also have to have a deterrent in addition to that access control.
And they have to have a secure perimeter, let's be honest, because you don't know who's trying to get into these facilities or whatever acts they have to grind, at least in their own sick, twisted, evil minds.
Linda, you have an update on the news.
Yeah, just real quickly, Sean, KRON4 out there in Sam Bruno, as well as the Washington Times are saying that the woman reportedly shot her boyfriend at the YouTube headquarters.
So this sounds like it might be a little bit more personal.
Yeah, but what about the other suspect?
There are apparently all these people now showing up at the hospitals, and you had the eyewitness say not only did that one individual get shot 10 times, we haven't been able to confirm if it's a man or a woman, although I was pretty sure the guy said a woman.
Yeah, they have confirmed that there was a shooter that was a woman.
I haven't heard anything more about an additional shooter or a second shooter.
NBC News is now reporting that the female suspect is dead at the scene.
So, again, we're not trying to be first here.
We're just trying to get it right for everybody.
You know, it goes to any place.
I know churches.
I know Pastor Jeffers, for example, when I was down in Dallas, they have a full security component of people there, Jonathan, just to protect their parishioners.
Absolutely.
And, you know, Sean, while I'm hearing all this stuff and hearing you and Dan talk, what keeps popping in my mind is that right now, most big businesses and malls and churches have the ability to set security policies in place right now for little or no money that would stop people from accessing the buildings that aren't supposed to be there.
It just takes a threat assessment, which most people have the ability to do because they already know their building better than the potential attackers.
They just have to look at it from the attacker's point of view.
And then if they have people who are former law enforcement, former military, or even in the case of churches, parishioners who carry concealed weapons permit.
And they just simply lock the place down and don't allow people in.
But these things can be done right now, and people just aren't doing it.
What I am interested in finding out is if YouTube had any armed guards there.
All right, we got to take a break.
I'm going to let you both go, Dan Bongino and Jonathan Gillum.
As we get more information, we'll make it available to you.
We'll have more coverage tonight on Hannity.
We'll do wide open phones at the bottom of this half hour.
All right, as we roll along, Sean Hannity shows.
All right, looks like this situation out at YouTube is now pretty much under control, and the White House has been briefed.
They're monitoring the situation.
But the bottom line is it looks like the female suspect, a white female adult wearing a dark top and some scarf, and some employees were able to escape the building.
There are multiple reports that this had to do with a boyfriend and girlfriend situation.
It was a woman shooting a boyfriend.
There are multiple people that have been taken to the hospital.
The active shooter is dead, so that means no active shooter anymore.
And it looks like police have the situation under control.
I mean, another example, when you need the police, they were on the scene as quickly as they ever could possibly be there.
But by that time, of course, those situations are over.
One of the things we talk about is how difficult it is for the police in so many areas of what their job details call for.
But if the police get there, the average shooting is over in three minutes.
This was pretty much over in just a couple of minutes.
And that's why if you want to protect a school, you want to protect a church, you want to protect a municipal building, you want to protect an office building, you want to protect your home, you've got to be able to be the first line of your defense.
No matter how quickly the police respond, it's going to be too late.
All right, so the female suspect is now dead at the scene.
Reports that it was a boyfriend-girlfriend situation.
As more information becomes available, we'll bring it to you.
We'll hit the phones when we get back.
Our toll-free telephone number, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we'll have all the details, of course, on Hannity tonight.
Sarah Carter's breaking news on the Deep State Gate.
And what are we going to do about this caravan of illegal immigrants trying to cross the border?
All right, 25 now till the top of the hour to our busy telephones Wego as we check in with Richard is in Montreal in Canada.
Richard, hi, how are you?
Glad you called, sir.
Hi, Sean.
You've been doing a great job covering that Owan IT scandal.
But how come the Republicans in Congress are not saying a word about it?
And does President Trump, is he aware of the scandal?
And I think he should talk about it because that would help him win the midterms alone.
That's worse than Russia, what happened there.
Well, it's really bad.
I agree, and it's sad.
But the reality is that when you have a media that spends 24-7 trying to attack and take down the president, and they're more interested in Stormy Daniels and a phony Russia conspiracy, a tinfoil hack conspiracy theory, and they're more interested in basically shredding the Constitution and the rule of law and the process and dividing this country in a way we've never seen before.
They don't really, they're not interested in the truth.
They're not interested in facts.
What they're interested in is their agenda.
And their agenda has been Donald Trump not get elected.
And since then, that they delegitimize him.
Where are the Republicans on this?
How come where's Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell?
This should be a big situation.
The answer is Republicans, by and large, are weak, timid, feckless, and they lack spine, a courage, and a backbone.
And, you know, I'll give you the number one thing they ought to be dealing with right now.
If Republicans want to win the 2018 election, they should follow the president's advice.
And that is that they need to get back in session, and they need to fund the border wall, and they need to use the nuclear option, and they need to do it yesterday, because that's a promise most of them made to the American people.
And the next thing that I would do if I was them, I would finish the work on Obamacare.
And the next thing I'd do after that is I'd work on some of the infrastructure issues that we're dealing with in the country.
And I'd make private public partnerships.
I know they started it, but there's a lot further we can go.
Right.
I mean, I emailed John Bolton about this.
Hopefully he can do something about it.
Well, I think he's a little busy getting set up as the NSA director, but I think I applaud your enthusiasm.
Good for you.
All right, Tom is next, North Dakota.
Tom, hi, how are you?
Glad you called, sir.
Sean, very good.
Thank you.
What's happening?
Well, I'm calling from North Dakota, you know.
Yes, sir.
You sound like you got an Irish accent.
Go ahead.
Rocking the Bakken.
See, you were up here once, did a program from the Bakken.
I did.
That's correct.
Yeah.
Well, I got an idea for you.
You might be interested.
By the way, how is production these days?
Have things picked up again?
Very things have taken off again, thanks to Donald Trump.
Yep.
And a big part of that, of course.
Well, remember, the Middle East, the Saudis in particular, and according to the new Crown Prince, they are trying to transition off of an oil-only economy.
Because if America now decides to be energy independent, under this president, we have made that decision, and now he's done everything possible to get us there.
That takes away, that's going to ultimately, they tried to drive all of you in North Dakota out of business by dropping the prices to historic low levels.
Correct, yep.
But now it's not going to be able to, it's not going to work.
And I think we're going to become an energy-independent country, which we should have been for a long time.
Absolutely.
I agree.
All right.
Anything else on your mind?
Well, I've been, of course, I enjoy listening to your program throughout the day, and I understand you were thinking about a 1,200 sports trip.
As a matter of fact, I am.
When did I mention that?
That's true.
But anyway, my thought was.
Hey, I may go get it this weekend.
Just get it.
Well, let me suggest something.
Have you ever heard of the Sturgis motorcycle rally, Sturgis, South Dakota?
As a matter of fact, I have, but if you think I'm going to ride all the way from New York to North Dakota, you've got another thing coming, or South Dakota.
I can't make it that far.
I don't have the time, number one.
Well, here's what I would think.
You know, that, of course, they have it the first full week of August every year, and there'll be somewhere between 400 and 500,000 deplorables out there on motorcycles, and you will fit right in.
I would suggest take the whole show on the road out to the Sturgis for an entire week, and they have an opportunity out there.
Listen, I think it'd be really cool to hang out with a bunch of motorcycle guys, but I probably am not going to be able to make it.
But I do appreciate the invitation.
Yeah, that's the bike that I want to get, the Harley 1,200.
That's my bike.
That's the one I like.
It's not the biggest.
Why can't you make it?
And should I get like a Sons of Sturgis?
Should I get a Sons of Anarchy colors on the back of my tackle?
I don't know what I think about that show.
That's Lauren's department.
Oh, my God.
Speak to that.
Lauren gets it.
I just love Jax.
Yeah, Jax is dead.
Jax took his Harley, put his hands up in the air, was riding.
Don't tell everyone.
Whoever has not seen this show should watch it.
Right into an 18-wheeler and splat.
Jax is that what you're afraid of?
No, not at all.
I'm not afraid of anything.
You're thinking maybe like because all right, let me get to our phones.
You all are so obnoxious and always attacking the host.
Let's say hi to Lee is in Tampa, Florida, WFLA.
What's up, Lee?
How are you?
Hey, good afternoon, Sean.
Just a couple of quick questions.
Do you think that Mr. Mueller loves the insurance policy?
And do you think that he is going to wait until the midterm elections to pull out some type of tricks at that time to influence the election?
Nothing that Mueller and his band of Democratic donors will surprise me.
And I think they have gone way outside their mandate.
I thought that the argument made by Manafort's team was pretty compelling in as much as this was not under the purview of Jeff Sessions' recusal, and Rod Rosenstein only had a narrow area that he was going to appoint a special counsel.
And just because Rod Rosenstein, quote, gave his blessing and approval to me doesn't necessarily make it right, legal, and just.
And I just think at the end of the day that Robert Mueller purposely put together a band of Democratic donors, and they've been on a witch hunt ever since.
You know, I played this montage of Democrats.
Oh, this is a civil war.
This is, if Mueller takes this to where he is capable of taking it and where he has shown that he wants to go, then this country is going to be divided between those of us that see this for what it is, a political witch hunt, and those of us that believe in the rule of law and the Constitution, and those that feel justified in unseating a duly elected president.
This is not going to be good for the country.
And when I talked about Civil War yesterday, not in the way that the left has talked, I talked about you're not going to be able to go to dinner with your family anymore.
Things are going to get so hyper-partisan and tense.
And I'm making that prediction now because that's what Mueller wants.
If that's what he wants, that's what's going to happen.
And Trump's people are not going to back down.
And that's not going to be good for the country.
It's not going to be good for the economy.
None of it.
But anyway, that's what the left wants.
That's what they've been fighting for from the beginning.
Robert St. Louis in Missouri, next, Sean Hannity show.
How are you, Robert?
I'm doing good.
I was calling on, just listened to you yesterday, and you said, kind of hold your nose and vote this midterm.
And I'm just fed up.
I'm done with the Republican Party.
Since I was old enough to vote, I've voted Republican, and I'm fed up, especially after the omnibus bill.
$10 million to fund women police officers in Afghanistan.
Really?
Listen, we waste so much money.
It's a disgrace.
I mean, every dollar the government spends, they should be turning over every nickel.
I mean, the fact that the president was able to get a billion-something off of the new versions of Air Force One shows you that our government doesn't care about the money that they're spending because it's not their money.
I've always said liberals are generous with everybody else's money.
Liberals can donate every dollar they have if they want.
They can build homeless shelters.
They can adopt a homeless person, but they only want to be generous with your money because otherwise they turn over their own wealth, especially these Hollywood hypocrites.
By the way, I see it is candy hour out there for the people in the sales division, and Auntie Linda makes it possible for everybody to get.
Do you need like your.
No, no, no, go on the microphone.
Do you have a voice today?
One over, Jen.
I mean, every single day we have a group of people outside this, these doors, and every single day they come in for their sugar high at the uh towards the end of the day.
I mean, what did you get today?
I have the Hershey's with the extra creamy milk chocolate, toffee, and almonds.
And what else did you get?
Oh, I got two of them.
And you're not going to take any more today.
We'll see about that.
Yeah, how many times on a usual day do you come into Linda's candy store?
As many times as she likes.
I just want to come see Linda.
Oh, great.
All right.
See that?
See that?
That's right.
It's Linda Hour in here.
Big time AJ, Houston, Texas.
What's going on, baby?
How are you?
Big time, Sean Hannity.
Hey, Boston.
First of all, yeah, exactly.
Hey, happy new year to you guys.
It's my first time back, and happy Easter to all you guys.
Thank you, big time.
Thank you, AJ.
We miss you.
Oh, man.
Hey, we're back now.
We got to stop these people from coming in our country.
And I'm glad Donald Trump's sending the troops down there.
And Grant Abbey here got a DPF, and he got the National Guards on the Texas borders heading that way.
He might have been down there in the weekends, I understand.
But this is a travesty that we're letting the Democrats get away with.
And you like Republicans don't have no cojones.
I'm being nice, people.
I want to say something else, but I'm going to be nice.
Why are they sitting around letting the Democrats dictate to them?
Trump, they need to follow Trump.
Trump got the cojony.
Get behind the man, and we're going to win.
Well, if you listen to Liberal Joe, Liberal Joe, the liberal host with Mika over there at Conspiracy TV, MSNBC.
All right, stop.
Yeah, it's a whatever you want to call that place.
Anyway, so Liberal Joe actually says the GOP will pay a high, high price if they don't distance themselves from Trump.
You know, I can't believe that he doesn't understand politics better than that.
The answer is simple: keep your word, keep your promises.
You know, no, no pale pastels, but bold colored differences.
If you make a promise, you keep a promise, you do your job, you make the country more prosperous and safer, you're going to win re-election.
You don't do it, you pay the price for your inability to get stuff done.
Hey, I tell you what, hey, I'm backing him 20,000% because I got him all the way.
I don't care what they talk about, but I want to meet my girl Diamond and Silk, boy, big time AJ.
Whoa, whoa, are you hitting on Diamond and Silk?
What's going on here?
They are awesome.
I love them.
They are the awesome of awesome.
I wish they were.
Hey, AJ, I thought you were married.
What are you talking about dating Diamond and Silk?
No, no, no, no.
We part.
I got a little bit at the house.
We got 50 girls.
So you have an open marriage.
Sean, you're trying to get.
No, I'm just.
So do you, so you have an open marriage, and if you, you, your wife's okay, if you want, if you want to date Diamond or Silk or Diamond and Silk.
Oh, no, no.
I didn't say date.
I said meet.
Meet.
Yeah, but it sounds like you got a boyhood little crush on our favorite duo.
That's what it sounds like to me.
Hey, Sean, they are awesome.
I love them.
Listen, I'm in your camp.
And which one do you like better, Diamond or Silk?
Do you have a preference?
There is no better, Sean.
Both of them are just so awesome.
If you could only kiss one, which one would it be?
Both of them cheats together.
If you can only kiss one, who would it be?
If you have to choose.
Now you're talking about a hard time.
This is the first time AJ is speechless in all the years you've called.
You can't answer.
Them girls leave you speechless.
They both so awesome.
They like Linda and Lauren.
They're awesome.
All right.
Wait, whoa, hang on one second.
AJ, AJ, we're just going to do you a favor.
Hey, Silk, say hi to big time AJ in Houston, Texas.
Apparently, AJ has a crush on Diamond and Silk.
He's a big time crush.
Oh, my goodness.
Hey, AJ, how you doing?
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Big Tim, how are you doing?
Which one is this one?
This is Silk.
Silky Silk.
How are you?
I'm doing wonderful, magnificent.
So, what is it that you like about Diamond and Silk?
Everything.
Y'all just so awesome.
Hey, AJ, AJ, do you want to take, just be honest?
Do you want to take Silk out on a date or what?
Oh, no.
I will get killed.
Oh, yes.
All right, so Silk, how's the— I would love to meet you guys.
And boy, I take— Oh, man.
I need to take a hour.
Wow.
That'll be so magnificent.
Look, you know, email me.
Email me at diamondandsilk at gmail.com.
Oh, man.
I'm on Twitter with you.
Silk, are you sure you want to give out that email?
Oh, I'm sure we should.
I'm pretty sure.
All right.
It's going to say big time AJ Houston, Texas.
I'll let Lauren hook it up for you.
All right.
I'll let you both go.
Love you.

Tonight, 9 Eastern on Fox.
We've got the showdown at the border, the latest on Mueller's witch hunt, Sarah Carter, breaking news as it relates to Deep State Gate.
We'll check in with Sebastian Gorka, also Dan Bongino, Ed Henry with the report, and Jesse versus Jessica and Alan Dershowitz.
That's all happening 9 Eastern.
Got a lot of montages we need to play tonight on the Fox News channel.
