Newt Gingrich, Former Speaker of the House and host of the "Newt’s World" podcast joins Hannity to talk about the inner workings of Congress. The need for compromise seems to be lost on the new generation of congressional representatives who care more about their late night interview than the welfare of the American people. The empty promises do nothing to help the average citizens pay their taxes or feed their kids. The time is now for Speaker Pelosi to get a hold of the madness that has become the Democrat party. The Sean Hannity Show is on weekdays from 3 pm to 6 pm ET on iHeartRadio and Hannity.com.

If you want to uh join us, we got uh uh, by the way, programming announcement.
President Trump will be on Hannity tonight, nine Eastern on the Fox News channel, and really giving his first reaction response to all that has happened, the release of the Mueller report, uh, no evidence of collusion, no obstruction.
Um, it's so funny to watch the news media.
Uh, it was interesting.
Alan Dershowitz had great comments.
When a prosecutor, there is something called prosecutorial discretion.
And what they do is they look at, okay, well, these does this meet the standard?
Does this meet the standard?
Does this meet the standard?
As it relates to the specificity of the law.
Again, how do we hold these people that abuse power and try to not not only rigged a criminal investigation for a favorite presidential candidate, but then also advocate and take affirmative steps to elect that person.
In other words, cheat, steal the election.
Like they rigged a primary, they wanted to rig the general election.
And then, of course, bludgeon Donald Trump thereafter with their insurance policy, which we now know is nothing but a bunch of lies that were paid for by Hillary, and that everybody knew that from as early back as in August of 2016.
And so what prosecutors do, they look at the law, they look at the words of the law.
Like, for example, it meant something when the exoneration letter of Hillary was being drafted in May of 2016, and gross negligence, which is actually in the criminal statute, was there, and they decided to take it out.
So the criminal stat standards in the statute was not there.
Now they recognize that she had on her server top secret classified information, mark classified at the time, etc., which is a clear violation.
There is no ambiguity that this was done and done by design, and she did it probably to avoid congressional oversight.
And, you know, when when you have people like Struck and Page, now that we have been getting their testimony, and they're telling us that well, all the decisions that the FBI wanted to make, well, they had to go through the attorney general and the attorney general's office.
Well, that's the same attorney general that met Bill Clinton on a hot tarmac in Phoenix for 45 minutes in a plane, and all they talked about were supposed to believe were grandkids.
So that's all we discussed.
Let me show you this little cute outfit that I got for my little pumpkin over here.
I'm gonna show you my look at this picture here on Halloween.
I want to show you what she looked like on Santa Claus, and and you know, wait till I got to Santa Claus.
She was smiling and smiling.
But first she was crying, but then she's smiling.
And uh that's what we were supposed to believe that.
It was reminds me of Sandy Burger.
Remember Sandy Burger?
He's sloppy.
He's just sloppy, sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.
What was he sloppy about?
Well, he went into the National Archives and he stole documents.
And they say, oh, he didn't mean to steal them when he stuffed them down his pants that he was sloppy.
Just think maybe this is a case of sloppy.
Sloppy sure was a careless, sloppy.
Careless, he was sloppy about it.
Yeah, I'm sloppy.
I'm sloppy too.
I have to do that.
Obviously, uh the sloppiness was not something that uh we're gonna regret it.
Yeah, we it was a case of sloppiness.
Sloppiness, sloppy slopes.
Yeah, sloppy, sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.
You know, it's sort of like manufactured crisis.
You know, the media and the leftist extreme radical democrats are one.
And that's what they do.
Sandy Burglar was not sloppy.
He took, he stole the documents.
He shoved them down his pants.
That's where your private parts are.
I'm sure it wasn't done in a way that was sloppy.
I think it was done purposefully to cover something up.
Then, of course, if it was a Republican that did it, there'd be a very different standard applied.
And he also shoved them in his backside, right down that side of his pants.
Sloppy.
And then, you know, I guess maybe he thought that he might have an accident walking out or perhaps.
And he wanna mess.
You know, I mean, that's what they want you to believe.
They want you to suspend all common sense and intelligence.
You know, my kids would lie to me when they're young.
I'd like to stop insulting my intelligence.
You know, it it's stop.
Just you just own it.
You get more trouble for lying about it.
And he wasn't sloppy when he shoved him in his socks papers.
I'm sure he was walking out very comfortably, sloppily, but comfortably, when he shoved him in his pants, his socks and his you know, backside.
And this is what this they want you to suspend every bit of common sense that you know have.
And now we know I don't believe that there was an accident that meeting on the tarmac in Phoenix at all.
I don't believe that now that we have Paige and Strck, and remember, they're all gonna start turning on each other because they're now facing criminal referrals themselves.
They're now facing for the possibility of charges.
There will be people charged in this.
There is so much that is about to come cascading down, and I've not been wrong yet.
I've asked you for patience, but I've not been wrong yet.
And it is overwhelming the amount of evidence.
It is incontrovertible the amount of evidence that everything we have been reporting for two plus years on this program and on Hannity, the TV show is absolutely right.
And if we are going to hold them accountable, this is important.
Now, Devin Nunes on that front, holding them accountable, and the media, by the way, I I don't know how you're ever holding them accountable.
They're just lost causes.
New York Times wanted a quote from me.
I said, I I I don't I don't respond to tabloid fake news people anymore.
You're wasting my time.
And the Washington Post apparently reaching out for comment.
I have no respect for anybody that works at these publications.
I don't think anybody could ever trust unless you're just a pure partisan that wants to suspend all common sense and intelligence you have, and you believe in tinfoil hat conspiracy theories.
That's what that's what the type of person viewer they're now looking for.
It's basically the sci-fi channel.
Because that's what they're peddling every second minute hour of every day.
Anyway, back to Nunes.
He now says that he expects to issue criminal referrals against Obama administration of figures who were involved in the FBI's corrupt Russia Hillary investigations as soon as next week.
He did this interview and he said the ranking member at the House Intelligence Committee was targeting people who lied to Congress, committed perjury, and criminal conspiracy.
Nothing that the referrals will be issued hopefully by the end of next week.
He said that his team will work to make sure, make as much public as possible.
Nunes has not named anyone who could appear in a referral, but he has railed against what he says is collusion between the Democrats and the Russians.
Well, we have a tape of real collusion, Russian collusion.
We have a real tape of it.
I have the hello, Washington.
Sean Hannity just said he has evidence of real Russian collusion to impact our electoral system.
Real collusion on tape.
That took place.
And we played it before.
Maybe we'll play it later in the show.
Um Adam Schiff colluding with the Russians, trying to get dirt.
Compromise Donald Trump with uh naked pictures.
Naked, naked Donald.
Naked Donald.
That's what they want.
And really?
Does Putin know?
Yeah, uh, yes, yes.
Putin though.
Putin though.
Uh tell him Vladimir I'll have more flexibility.
This is my last election.
Yeah.
I'm just a bit much and I have more flexible.
And I transmit this information.
Let's not.
We now, if we don't do as I am saying and hold them accountable, it will happen again.
The good news I can tell you is there is a treasure trove of information that has not been released.
That will be released.
It includes, now, thanks to Congressman Doug Collins of Georgia, we've been getting some of these interviews.
These interviews have been very enlightening.
And as I said, struck in page saying that no decision was made without Loretta Lynch, Tarmac, Bill Clinton, Loretta Lynch in that case.
Then we also have it's not an investigation, it's a matter.
Okay.
James Comey wouldn't stand up to Loretta Lynch in that moment.
And then, of course, Lisa Page and Peter Struck said, We we knew the fix was in.
We knew Hillary wasn't getting indicted because they're all Democrats over there at the DOJ under Obama.
Well, that means high-ranking Obama officials knew the fix was in.
And, you know, then you go to, well, I I even asked Professor Dershwitz the other night.
I said, Professor, you're a good lawyer.
You're a good defense lawyer.
Could you, if I deleted 33,000 emails and cleaned up my hard drive with uh the acid wash known as bleach bit, it's not actually acid wash, but you know what I mean.
It's more descriptive.
And then I had somebody that works for me beat up my my phones that were subpoenaed, and my my BlackBerry subpoenaed, and I ripped out their SIM cards to render them meaningless.
Do you think you can get me off that?
And of course he couldn't get me off of that.
He can't do that.
Remember one day I said hypothetically, hey, you know, go ahead, go do it.
Good luck to you.
And I said, it's not gonna work out well.
So those are all now coming.
And Nunes has said that uh the he hasn't named everyone who could appear in the referral, but there's going to be these criminal referrals.
Uh he has been in the forefront in this investigation, this collusion between Democrats and the Russians, pointing to the use of the unverified Trump dossier by the FBI to obtain warrants to spy on Carter Page, deny him his constitutional rights.
Um that, of course, was the bulk of information used in the FISA application.
And he said what needs to happen is we need to have full transparency in the matter and full transparency, he said.
The FBI DOJ have claimed falsely that this investigation started in July 2016.
That was a lie.
And we need to know all of the informants, everybody they were running into the Trump campaign because what happened here is wrong.
The FBI Department of Justice should not be able to use counterintelligence capabilities that are used to target terrorists and other bad guys around the globe against political parties.
And Republicans and Democrats should agree political opposition research from one candidate should not be used to let the nation's top spy capabilities be used against political parties.
I think when this is all said and done, we're also going to find out that our intelligence committees, our intelligence community.
Now, there's a part of this that wouldn't bother me if they work with other countries, and maybe because our laws don't allow them to do certain things, and other countries are outsourced or willing partners and give them information that's protecting the American people, that's one thing.
And it's still, you know, you're riding a razor's edge there in terms of whether or not you're lawful.
I don't want radical Islamists not with we not having that information.
Or if there are American traders, we need to know.
But as it relates to what they've done here, they rigged a criminal investigation, so she never was going to be, she was never gonna have a real investigation.
It was rigged.
She rigged the primary against Bernie.
Then, because they saved her, and the guy that interviewed her believed that she should win a hundred million to zero and thought the people that would vote for Trump are smelly Walmart people.
Well, that was once once they fixed it so she could stay in the race, their favored candidate to defeat Trump who they thought she would beat him.
Well, then, of course, she funnels money through a law firm to an op research group, and they hire, of course, Christopher Steele, who hates Trump.
Well, Bruce Orr warned everybody it was not verified.
Steele hated Trump and Hillary paid for it.
How did that not show up in the Pfizer application on Carter Page?
You know, August, let's see, they had August, September, October, and two and a half months to get this rip.
But they still use the phony unverified Russian bought and paid for dossier against to obtain Pfizer warrants against American citizens.
And then it goes further.
They used it four separate times.
But that also gave them a backdoor and entree to spy on the Trump campaign.
This is a dangerous precedent.
And if those people that knowingly did this are not held accountable, then we are going to lose any concept of equal justice under the law, equal application of our laws, and what it means to be a constitutional republic.
And it'll happen again.
We will just be encouraging them to be a little smarter next time.
Although they always thought Hillary was going to win.
None of this would be known then.
All right, quick break.
We got a lot to get to today.
President Trump on Hannity tonight.
Newt Gingrich joins us later in the program today, also Bill O'Reilly and much more.
All right, interesting controversy about crazy creepy Uncle Joe Biden.
And um, anyway, so he has decided to test the waters for this possible presidential announcement.
He launched an apology today, tour.
You know, follow his mentor.
And he said that he condemned a white man's culture.
This is Joe Biden on Tuesday night, lashing out against violence against women, more specifically regretting his role in the Supreme Court confirmation hearings that undermined Anita Hill's credibility 28 years ago.
Oh, this is a trial balloon by the biggest of all trial balloons.
Remember, he has issues.
My state's a slave state.
You can't, you know, work at a 7-Eleven or uh Dunkin' Donuts.
Without a slight Indian accent or it's storybook, man.
Well Rama's he's clean, he's articulate.
Wow.
Anyway, he said he should not have been forced to face a panel of a, or she should not have been forced to face a panel of a bunch of white guys.
And to this day, I regret I couldn't come up with a way to give her the kind of hearing she deserved.
And then he called on Americans to change the culture that dates back centuries and allows, you know, pervasive violence against women.
It's an English jurisprudential culture, a white man's culture.
It's got to change.
And then he went on to, you know, worried to throw his hat in the ring.
The first uh and in his first is his age, you know.
But it's just interesting to watch him try and well, basically take his whole career and deny never mind.
I didn't mean that.
All right, how do we hold them accountable?
And we've got new information via John Solomon about a Ukrainian plot to help Clinton.
And do we need a new special counsel?
Smoking is not about politics.
It's about people.
There are 34 million Americans that smoke.
For me, Jewel was a game changer.
Because you switch to Jewel, it's simple, it's satisfying, and no more smell.
I watch people all the time.
They run outside in the freezing cold can be grabbing their cigarette.
Well, with Jewel, you'll take a quick puff and you're good.
That's it.
Now, Jewel is designed with smokers in mind, from its form to technology, it's easy to use, no buttons, no switches, and the goal of Jewel is to impact the lives of adult smokers by providing a satisfying alternative.
Switch to Jule.
You'll wish you had done it a long time ago.
To discover the smoking alternative that is nothing like any e-cig vape you have ever tried.

All right, 25 now till the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of this uh extravaganza and this program.
Uh couple of other notes, I mean, because this is so big and so important and So profound.
Um very few people have recognized that the president won again on the issue of building the border wall.
And that is that they were unable in the House to override his veto.
That means that he's getting a lot more money than he would have otherwise originally gotten, and now we're up to you know another hundred, however many miles of the wall he's fighting every day to get it.
I think it's now a total between the 1.3 billion and 9 billion more that they're moving from the Department of Defense, unused funds, that he has a right like past presidents to appropriate, and uh so that job is going to get done, uh keeping a promise.
You know, I said at the time everybody was mad.
Well, he opened the government up.
He didn't get it.
No, I said he changed strategies.
I mean, when you're trying to negotiate with people that say they care about dreamers and DACA and say they care about furloughed workers, and they won't sit down with you.
And they send their their aides to go to meetings with the vice president.
And 35 days go by and people aren't being paid.
Well, okay, I'll own this shutdown.
You people don't want to do anything positive.
You obviously didn't mean it.
Your hatred of me far transcends any desire to get a deal done.
Okay, I'm gonna go down this path.
And there was the emergency declaration.
What do I say?
He's tenacious, he's unrelenting.
He's not gonna give up.
He's building the wall, he's fixing the wall.
Now he has a lot more money for the wall than any deal that he would have struck with Congress.
And the wall is being built.
Um, and you know what?
We need it because you know, a lot of you one of the reasons that I think that border crossings or attempted crossings have been at such a high is because people realize uh this may be my last shot.
I'm not gonna get across the border otherwise.
And um, because they they believe the president perhaps even more than the American people did.
Now, also, we had a very big remark yesterday in a pretty stunning reversal.
The Justice Department now made the decision about future the future of Obamacare.
Now remember, Republicans in the House had 65 show votes that were never going to be law.
Obama was president, never gonna happen.
He wasn't gonna take away his signature legislation.
Seven years later, well, Republicans weren't ready to repeal and replace Obamacare.
And then about a hundred of them in the House, oh, geez, little girl, give me a nobody knows who that is, right?
Do you know who that is?
Archie Bunker.
That would be Archie Bunker.
Archie.
You know, I'm doing my imitations as best I can today.
Um so pretty stunning reversal.
Justice Department revealed uh this week that they're gonna side with the federal district court ruling last year that found that Affordable Care Act, Obamacare is unconstitutional.
Now that's a significant reversal from the agency's previous stance, which declared that certain aspects of the law, like the individual mandate are unconstitutional, which by the way has been gotten rid of, could be severed from the law's main framework, but the decision means that the government is not going to defend the law constitutionally on appeal.
Well, that's a good thing.
And in a letter to the clerk of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, the assistant attorney general Joseph Hunt, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brett Schumate wrote the dick the Department of Justice has determined that the district court's judgment should be affirmed.
And during his Senate confirmation, now Attorney General Barr admitted that he was open to reconsidering the government's position on Obamacare.
There you go.
One check that off the list too.
In another Wall Street Journal piece, as it relates to Obamacare, you know, the all the reports of doom and gloom and a disaster it will be if President Trump continues to press for the full repeal of Obamacare.
And the Hill had a report that Trump is defending his administration's decision to side with the lawsuit, arguing the entirety of Obamacare is unconstitutional.
Now he did this.
Oh, guess what?
Democrats were surprised.
Some Republicans got nervous.
They're not used to actually keeping a promise.
You know, that's that is alien to many of these Washington.
I don't even know why they're there.
They just like to be, you know, called the congressman or a senator.
They don't have a backbone.
They don't fight for anything.
You never hear from them.
You know, I guess they give good speeches at the local diners every six years or two years, depending which body they're in.
And uh anyway, it's far too uh expensive for people, not only for the country.
Obamacare is a disaster.
The president calls it like it is.
By the way, Congressional Republicans up in arms, they don't have a plan ready to go.
Well, why don't they have a plan?
Well, we bring on Dr. Josh Umber of Atlas MD all the time.
Now we're gonna require hospitals to provide us, you know.
This will guarantee, by the way, that you get to keep your insurance.
Go ahead.
Good luck electing Kamala Harris or Bernie Sanders that will eliminate all private high, all private health care plans and will all be under the same plan.
What do you think about that as an alternative?
Why not sort of slide towards the system in an optional way?
Because ultimately we have to recognize that the current system is incredibly dysfunctional and wasteful.
Its goal is to make profits for the insurance companies and the drug companies.
You are not going to be able in the long run to have cost-effective universal health care unless you change the system, unless you get rid of the insurance companies, unless you stand up to the greed of the drug companies and lower prescription drug costs.
That's the only way that you could provide quality care to all people.
By the way, you know, here's another thing the president does.
Nobody never gets credit for the right to choose.
You know, if you want to help yourself, you're at the end of life and you have a cancer that is maybe maybe there's an experimental drug you're reading about.
You have a right to take that drug.
You know, if it's to save your life and it's your body.
You know, you would think no credit for anything.
It's always Trump hate 24-7 every minute, second hour of every day.
All right.
Holding them accountable.
Let me go back to this for a second.
Now, Lindsey Graham is saying, and I believe him, that he is going to be pressing the new attorney general, William Barr to appoint a special prosecutor to probe the Russia Gate hoax.
And that he intends to personally urge the attorney general to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Obama administration's involvement in the Russia Gate hoax and the Hillary email cover-up.
That would be the rigged investigation.
He said at his news conference that the Justice Department should now investigate whether the Obama Justice Department, we already know the answer from Paige and Strck, they're saying that the fix was in by the Department of Justice of Barack Obama, and it raises questions.
What did the Attorney General Loretta Lynch know?
When did she know it?
Uh and more and more.
When it comes to the Pfizer warrant, the Clinton campaign, counterintelligence investigation, it's been swept under the rug.
Those days are now over.
And Graham wants Barr, and so do I, by the way, to testify before the committee, and we'll call on him to appoint a new special counsel to lead the investigation.
I believe there was more there, and I intend to get it.
And what I want to see, if he'll appoint a special counsel, I'd like to find somebody like a Mr. Muller.
I don't understand Muller, to be honest with you.
Why would anybody ever appoint all partisans the way he has?
And I honestly and truly believe that the when the counter-narrative that had real evidence came out.
When we were unpeeling the layers of the onion, remember, this is two years worth of work for me and my whole team, our whole team.
And then it's been a team effort.
Not a lot of us.
I named names yesterday.
I'm not going to bother again.
But also people behind the scenes on radio and TV.
And it has been an effort.
And we now know certain things happen.
We know that the investigation into Hillary's email server scandal was rigged.
That the fix was in.
Well, if we're going to have equal justice, that means we have to open that investigation anew.
The issue of how the dossier came into being.
Who paid for it?
How did they pay for it?
Why did they funnel money through as a law or legal expense?
That would be a campaign finance violation.
Just like a private Server with top secret classified information, marked classified, is also illegal.
And just like the leading 33,000 subpoenaed emails is illegal.
And just like uh it's illegal to clean your hard drive so the FBI can't look at it or not hand over devices because you decided to eliminate them.
This is how you hold people accountable.
Rand Paul, he actually said to Breitbart that President Trump told senators at the GOP luncheon that he backs uh Ram Paul's call for an investigation into the origins of the Russian scandal hoax.
Now remember, we all started at the beginning was the abuse of power and the 350% increase, which seemed very odd in 2016 as it relates to unmasking of American citizens.
And then the number of cases where there was surveillance.
They didn't use minimization.
They then used the unmasking process.
Then they leaked raw intelligence.
And they did it as part of an effort.
How is it that Bruce Orr warned everybody in the DOJ and the FBI in August of 2016 that the dossier was bought and paid for by Hillary, and that it was that Steele hated Donald Trump and had an agenda, and that it was used as the bulk of information, even though Orr told them all it was unverified?
Now we know it's unverifiable.
So anything that these people produce that signed the Pfizer warrants that says this is well, we verified it.
You can't verify stuff that isn't true.
And you can't verify something that the author of still to this day doesn't stand by and says, I have no idea if any of it's true.
Well, the fact is most of it's been debunked, like the hookers urinating in the Ritz-Carlton in Trump's bed in Moscow.
So, you know, another issue that has to be gotten to the bottom of.
And then what about the insurance policy?
What about those that literally created this whole this whole hoax that built this lie and repeated it day after day after day after day after day?
What role did Brennan have in this?
What role did Clapper have in this?
What role did Susan Rice to have in this?
What role did Attorney General Lynch have in this?
What did they know?
When did they know it?
Why is Peter Strzok and Lisa Page saying that Loretta Lynch called all the shots at the Department of Justice?
And they knew that this was rigged because they're all partisan Democrats.
They were never going to indict Hillary.
Okay, then why did they move?
When did the original investigation into Trump begin?
And why was it based on Hillary's bought and paid for dossier?
Why would that ever be an issue for crying out loud?
That sounds ridiculous on every level, doesn't it?
And by the way, after nearly three years, millions of dollars, Trump Russia collusion, that's resolved.
But now we have emerging is the newly unearthed evidence suggesting this other foreign effort to influence the 2016 election for Hillary.
The leak of the black ledger files to the U.S. media, and this was broken by John Solomon, has now given rise to one of the key allegations in the Russia collusion probe that has dogged Trump for two and a half years, and that would be the Ukrainian prosecutor, a guy by the name of Lutsenko, and he's the prosecutor general in Ukraine, promoted, by the way, and prompted by Ukrainian Parliament's release of a tape recording.
And on the tape recording, purported to have top law enforcement officials saying his agency leaked the Manafort financial records to help Hillary Clinton's campaign.
The parliamentary parliamentarian also secured a court ruling that the leak amounted to an illegal intrusion into the American election campaign.
And then Lutzenko said the tape recording is a serious enough allegation to warrant the probe.
One of his concerns, Ukrainian law enforcement, their agencies involved had frequent contact with the Obama administration and the U.S. Embassy in Kiev at the time.
And they're launching a criminal investigation.
And they have evidence in their case.
So, well, why wouldn't we look into that?
Do we really care about foreign countries and interference?
I would.
You know, look at all the media bombshells they got wrong.
The media, look at what they've done, the damage they've done to divide this country.
How can you ever trust them again?
Oh, you know, CNN's Don Jr. accusing him of WikiLeaks collusion.
No, that was wrong by he actually found out after the release, like everybody else.
Or ABC tanks the stock market with Michael Flynn news news that he's prepared to testify that Donald Trump ordered him to contact the Russians.
The Mooch is under investigation.
Well, no, CNN wrong again.
Bloomberg's uh dirty Deutsche Bank scoop that they had, zeroing in Robert Mueller and Trump subpoena Deutsche Bank records.
Nope.
Sessions is exonerated that he had botched protocol when he didn't list the meetings he had with the Russian ambassador.
Yeah.
The Washington Post claiming Russians were hacking the U.S. power grid through a company in Vermont.
Republicans funded the dossier.
CNN gets Comey prediction wildly wrong when he gave testimony asserting that Comey was prepared to contradict a key claim by President Trump that Comey told him he was not under investigation.
The 17 intelligence agencies, the the whole lie by the media and by Hillary that they agree that Russia interfered in the 2016 election.
No.
We all know that Russia's a bad actor.
They're a hostile regime with a hostile leader, Putin.
Cone went to Prague.
The Buzzfeed scandal.
Oopsie Daisy.
What about MPR accusing Don Jr. of perjury?
What about the uh claims that Russian spies infiltrated the Oval Office?
We got to get to the bottom of it.
You know, you got to get and I am we are going to systematically.
Wait, you see what we're doing tonight?
Now we do have the president on tonight.
And uh so he's gonna get as much time as he wants.
And we'll go from there.
Just because he's not been criminally indicted for collusion doesn't mean he has conducted colluding types of behavior with the Russians.
So you think you're you think that the dossier which part wasn't for the other thing.
For one thing, Michael Cohen said he never went to Prague.
Do you agree with that?
Which part has been proved not to be factual?
Well, that there were basically, you know, a few main tenants of it.
One of them was this salacious story about what happened in a hotel.
None of that has proved to be to be factual.
The meeting that Cohen supposedly took in Prague was also proved to not have happened.
He testified that under oath in front of Congress that he never came to Prague.
So now you accept what Michael Cohen said.
Because if you accept what Michael Cohen said about Prague, then I think you also have to accept that Michael Cohen saw Donald Trump talk to Roger Stone where Roger Stone said the WikiLeaks attack is happening.
So if if you're accepting that, then you accept that Donald Trump knew about the Russian interference campaign.
And that's the issue here.
Right.
Hour two, Sean Hannity show right down our toll free telephone number.
It's 800-941-SEAN.
If you want to be a part of the program, that was Eric Swalwell, the congressman.
Just because Trump hasn't been charged with criminal collusion doesn't mean he hasn't colluded.
Well, the whole point is we've had an FBI investigation that said there was no collusion.
We had a bipartisan Senate committee.
No collusion.
We had a House Intelligence Committee conclusion.
No collusion.
And now, of course, the Mueller report.
And the same on obstruction.
Well, wait a minute.
Muller didn't make a decision one way or the other.
He just laid out the facts.
But yeah, and as Alan Dershew would said, you don't get to just lay out the facts.
If you can't indict, then the answer is no, you do not have a case.
And of course, that was given to the attorney general, and he and Rod Rosenstein, still the deputy attorney general, made the decision that there was no warrant to in any way charge or even think about charging the president for obstruction.
You know, and then of course Adam Schiff and company, it's never ending.
Um he is a great historian, former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, and I am making the case that if we don't hold these people, both in the media and those people that were responsible for rigging Hillary's criminal investigation, those responsible for, even though they were warned, everybody was warned in August of 2016 the dossier was paid for by Hillary, steel hated Trump.
None of the information was verified.
But then, of course, on four separate occasions, they used the bulk of information of the phony dossier to obtain a warrant against uh a campaign associate of Donald Trump and then also a pathway into the whole Trump campaign, which is even more insidious in the lead up to a campaign and then used to bludgeon um the president thereafter and undo a sitting uh president and overturn an election of the people.
This is a this is a crucial moment, I think, Mr. Speaker, for the country.
No, I look, I think it's enormously important, and I was delighted to be on your TV show tonight when Lindsay Graham made the commitment as the new chairman of the Judiciary Committee that he is going to pursue this and not give up on it.
I think the president uh should very proactively have uh the White House counsel reviewing everything that can be released.
Uh, I see no reason why they can't release everything about the Pfizer warrants, for example.
Uh, I agree with Andy McCarthy's recent column that it's not just about releasing the Mueller report, but it's about releasing all of the other material that surrounds it.
Uh, and I think we're going to be very deeply sickened by the depth of corruption and the depth of dishonesty, uh, which I believe reaches all the way to the pro to President Obama.
And I think it puts Vice President Biden uh in a very, very difficult situation.
I mean, running for president himself, he's gonna have to answer the question uh how much of this did he know?
And he's his answer is either gonna be I was totally out of the loop and pretty stupid and I didn't know anything, or he's gonna have to admit that he knew a lot of stuff that he should have been held accountable for too.
The fact that the news media and look, you live this in your years as speaker as I was there the night you got elected and followed your entire speakership, and I don't think uh I didn't think at that time that the press could ever get any more partisan or vicious or nasty,
but it really has become a a almost psychotic rage that exists every second minute hour of the day, and for two and a half years now, the American people have been fed a steady diet of nothing but lies and tinfoil hat conspiracy theories.
Um I don't know how you hold them accountable except realizing and recognizing something that I said back in 07, and that is that journalism is dead and that they have an agenda and they're not to be trusted.
Well, I I have two very simple challenges uh for the news media who who have been so obviously pathologically wrong for the last two and a half years.
The first is very simple, and that is that the Washington Post and the New York Times return the pool of surprises they won for what we now know was fake news on a grand scale.
Um I think it's a very good test of their integrity for them to return those two pool of surprises and the politzer committee to review how it got suckered in like that.
And then second, I think the news media itself, in in honor of the whole principle of the First Amendment, the news media point, a blue, you know, a blue ribbon commission to review how they got it so wrong.
I mean, what what were the patterns and and what are the lessons for the future?
Because I agree with you.
If if if they just go down the road as as Jeff Zucker said yesterday, uh that they did everything right and they were just doing their jobs and they have nothing to be ashamed of, they're gonna be down to about 30 percent of the country believing them, and 70 percent of the country knowing that they're just left-wing cuckoos.
Well, yeah, I agree.
Uh you can see a dramatic drop-off, though, because they created this anticipation, and you saw it different days, different nights, depending on what the news was.
We we've got 'em.
We've got 'em.
We've got 'em.
And then there was the letdown.
And there's only so many times you can build up such anticipation in people, and then when you finally get the final report, and it's nothing near what you were being told, you know, talk about overpromising and under delivering this is the height of it.
But in the midst of that, all that has been said about the president, you know, a former CIA director, you know, calling the president treasonous numerous times.
And and that's some of the more mild comments that he has received.
But the the giddiness, the happiness, the joy with which they were advancing their own tinfoil hat conspiracy theories, um, that they really wanted to take down a sitting president.
You know, look, no one should be confused.
Uh the liberal media hates Trump, was desperate to destroy Trump, were waging war on Trump.
Uh, it's the most difficult two years, not not counting the Civil War.
It's the most difficult two years I can remember any president having.
And he bore up under it, frankly, like a pretty good trooper.
I mean, uh, this is a guy who had ninety-two percent negative coverage for almost three solid years.
He watched personal friends being chewed up.
Uh one of the questions we should ask is how much total money did innocent people have to spend.
I talked to somebody last night uh who spent over a million dollars uh just dealing with questions uh none of which had made any factual sense at all.
And and you go down that kind of a list and you think to yourself, I mean, how much money did innocent people have to spend on behalf of this witch hunt just to defend themselves?
Uh and I think we'll never know the full amount, but it's just got to be in the 250 million to 500 million range.
Uh and it's just part of the damage that was done.
But there's a deeper damage that I've begun to to write about uh Sean, and that is that we've we've spent two and a half years counting the run-up on the election talking about garbage.
Uh the Chinese just signed a contract to run Trieste and Genoa.
Genoa is the biggest port in Italy.
Trieste is the most important point that lets them go straight into Austria and into Southern Germany.
Uh the Chinese are on offense winning on on 5G with Huawei as a company.
Um we're sitting around sucking our thumbs, biting each other and talking about things that are just fake news, while the world is beginning to become genuinely dangerous, and that's part of the real price of this stuff.
When when you distract the American people and cripple the American president, you've done real damage to the United States, and that's what the left has to be held accountable for.
Oh, I agree.
I'm not sure that that's going to happen.
And look, I think what happens with the media's case is they're very defensive now, and they've they they've taken on the posture we don't really care what you think.
Uh some of them are still doubling down even after the Mueller report, which was on top of two congressional investigations and one nine month FBI investigation.
But, you know, to me, if we don't go back to the beginning and realize where this started, this started with a rigged investigation of Hillary, because the favored candidate, uh the one that should win a hundred million to zero, uh, the one that was allowed uh that w who had an exoneration letter written in May that took out the legal standards,
gross negligence and was changed to extreme carelessness that wasn't interviewed till July 2nd, 2016, that was allowed to bring in other people while being interviewed by the FBI, while being investigated.
That is unprecedented.
Uh also similarly, you know, then they admit that there was classified top secret information on that mom and pop shop bathroom server in the closet, and then the biggest slam duck dunk obstruction case, and then of course the the money funneled through a law firm to an op research group to hire a foreign national,
and they don't verify any of the dossier because it's unverifiable, and then that's the basis of a Pfizer warrant to spy on the opposition party candidate and and disseminate false information before an election of the American people.
Well, all of that combined.
How do we get that right?
How do we hold all accountable?
That to me is Well, I look, I think we have to demand it, and I think that's where uh Lindsay Graham is going to play such a pivotal role.
I think uh the committee he chairs, the Judiciary Committee, has the power to do a lot of digging, to do a lot of subpoenae.
I think the president should ask the uh new attorney general to do a thorough review uh of two different parallel tracks.
One, how did they have such corrupt behavior against the president?
And two, since it's the very same people, uh, how do they have such corrupt behavior to protect Hillary Clinton?
And I think that the president can instruct the attorney general to to impanel reviews of both of those.
I think that uh Lindsay Graham should uh establish a pretty aggressive investigation on those two fronts.
And then I think the rest of us just ought to nag and ridicule and harass uh the news media and treat them with the contempt they've earned, unless they're willing to do the kind of things I talked about.
If they would establish a blue ribbon commission, that would be significant.
If uh the Times and the Post would return their uh Pulitzers, that would be significant.
But if they want to play like uh being totally dishonest and hysterical is the standard they're gonna live by, then we should treat them like people who are living by that standard.
We'll take a quick break.
More with New Gingrich, former Speaker of the House.
By the way, his new podcast is out, Newt's World, and it's all free on all Apple podcasts.
When you go search podcasts, uh, I want to ask him about the crazy and insane left uh that has taken over the Democratic Party these days.
Uh 800 nine four one Sean is our number.
Don't forget President Trump on Hannity tonight.
Later on, Bill O'Reilly uh will check in.
We have Freedom Caucus members.
Where do we go from here?
How do we hold them all accountable?
That's all straight ahead.
All right, as we continue, former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich is with us.
Don't forget his new podcast, Newt's World on all Apple Podcasts for free.
Uh and you tweeted out, let's be clear.
Speaker Pelosi can try to keep her party in in mildly crazy left instead of totally crazy left, but there is no possibility that she can move it to the center.
Reparations and fanicide, abolishing private insurance, radical tax increases, open borders.
This is the Pelosi party.
Um I never thought we'd ever have a proposal in America that would eliminate in ten years oil gas cars, uh, and then the goal of eliminating cows and airplanes, and that will replace them with trains, and that everybody will be guaranteed everything from the moment they're born to the moment they're die, including a job, government healthy food vacations, and of course, uh anything else they might need.
Well, I think you're gonna start with the idea that the left wing of the Democratic Party is crazy.
I mean, y this is not something you debate.
You just have to say, sure, that I mean, if if a seventh grader wrote a paper proposing that, you'd understand talking to them about it.
If a twelfth grader wrote that paper, you'd ask them, you know, where they've been about learning reality.
Uh but you now have an education system so far to the left doing such a bad job, um that that uh people like Alexandria Okosi uh Cortez, you know, she has no clue about the real world.
I mean, she lives in a fantasy land.
I said one time this is the Disney World part of of uh the Democratic Party.
They think the whole world's like the Lion King and and lions and zebras dance together and love each other, because they have no idea about reality.
And I think we have to take them head on.
And the point I was making, I've I had been asked by a reporter uh if what I thought about Pelosi's effort to bring her party to the center, and I said that's just totally false.
She's not trying to bring her party to the center.
She's trying to keep it and sort of a mildly crazy left in order for it not to go to a totally crazy left.
But and that's why I gave that list of things.
I I think any democratic nominee is gonna be for reparations.
I think they're gonna be for infanticide.
I think they're gonna end up being 70 percent tax rates, uh 90 percent corporate rates.
Yeah.
You know, that's the standard that their left is gonna set.
And if they die, if they're not for those things, I think the party will split at the convention and it will be as wild as 1968 was.
All right, Newt Gingrich, I got I we're we're up on a break, got a roll.
But uh, your podcast, by the way, available for free on Apple Podcasts uh when you go to any Apple product.
Congratulations on that, by the way.
We uh talk indeed.
Thank you, Mr. All right, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you.
Quick break, right back, and we will continue.
Report by the Democrats, be able to demonstrate that collusion did in fact take place.
We'll certainly be able to show the facts uh supporting uh the issue of collusion and uh the secret meetings, all the lies about the secret meetings, uh, and putting them in their important context.
Interestingly, for people who wonder what is collusion look like when it's charged as a crime.
Bob Muller has told us uh in the indictment of the 13 Russians, the indictment is a conspiracy to defraud the United States.
And the interesting thing about that indictment, it indicates the Russians on the social media campaign.
It makes no mention of the hacking and dumping operation, the dirt on Hillary Clinton that the Trump campaign was so eager to get.
Now, why is that?
It's not for lack of evidence.
Just bluntly, do you believe he's compromised by Vladimir Putin?
Well, I certainly think he's acting like someone who's compromised.
Uh and it may very well be that he is compromised, or it may very well be that he believes that he's compromised, that the Russians have information on him.
Well, I think there's plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy in plain sight.
We're doing our own investigation, and we've revealed evidence, I think, that certainly goes to the issue of conspiracy and collusion, a lot of which is now public.
This sends a message to anyone who is in Bob Mueller's crosshairs right now.
You better get to the special counsel and make your deal down.
Because anyone who gets indicted by Bob Mueller goes down.
And the longer you wait to come clean, the worse deal you're gonna get, the more time you're gonna face.
When you look at that constellation of facts and all the links between these different characters, uh it's either an extraordinary, extraordinary coincidence, or it's what collusion looks like.
Uh and this may be why the president uh so adamantly tries to deny collusion, because these facts are pretty damning.
My takeaway is there's a very real prospect that uh on the day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department uh may indict him, uh, that he may be the first president uh in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time.
He was pursuing the most lucrative deal, I think, of his life and seeking the Kremlin's help to make it happen.
Uh that's a different form of collusion, but it is equally compromising to the country because look, you can see evidence in plain sight uh on the issue of collusion, pretty compelling evidence.
George is ample evidence of collusion uh of the campaign, and it's very much in the public record.
Have you seen, do you have direct evidence of collusion with Russia?
Well, I think there is direct evidence in the emails uh from the Russians uh through their intermediary, offering dirt on Hillary Clinton as part of what is described in writing as the Russian government effort to help elect Donald Trump.
Trump at all along and beginning two years ago, as you point out until the present date is, there is ample evidence of collusion.
And there is significant evidence of collusion, and we've set that out uh time and time again.
There could be overwhelming evidence on the obstruction issue, and I don't know that that's the case.
What does this mean for the American people?
What risks are we running with this president?
Yes, the tinfoil hack conspiracy brigade continues and led by their fearless leader, the cowardly Schiff, who won't come on this program.
Why won't Adam Schiff come on?
We've offered him three hours.
We don't offer many people three hours of our show.
Um, but we do have chronicled everything he has said and every time he's been wrong, and um every time he's misled and lied to the American people, and you know, I do have evidence of collusion that I would like to ask him about.
Real Russian collusion to dig up dirt for the very purpose of impacting American politics and American elections.
I have irrefutable and incontrovertible evidence that somebody conspi with Russians and it's on tape.
Happens to be Adam Schiff himself.
This is Adam Schiff not knowing that this is a hoax.
This is Adam Schiff thinking he's really getting compromising materials uh of naked Donald Trump.
You think I'm making this up?
Nope.
Now tell me if you think this is collusion.
Okay, and so Buseva met with Trump uh in in uh New York at some point after the 2013 Miss Universe uh agent.
Absolutely.
And she got uh compromising materials on trapped after their uh short relations.
Okay.
And what's the nature of the compromise?
Well, there were pictures of naked Trump.
Okay.
And so Putin was made aware uh of the the availability of the compromising material?
Yes, of course, uh Buzava shared those materials with uh Sobchuk and Sobshark shares those materials with uh Putin because she's uh goddaughter of Putin and Putin decided to press on Trump.
Um and uh and the materials that you can provide to the committee or to the FBI, uh would they corroborate this allegation?
Sure, of course.
Uh when they were in Ukraine, we got their conversation by the phone where they are discussed uh those uh compromising materials we are ready to provide it to FBI.
So you you have recordings of both Sovchek and Buseva, uh where they're discussing the compromising material on uh Mr. Trump.
Absolutely.
Okay.
That sounds like collusion to me on a pretty high level.
Anyway, joining us for a reaction to all of this, uh Freedom Caucus members, uh representative and Dr. Mark Green of Tennessee and Representative Matt Gates of Florida.
Matt, that sounds an awful lot like collusion, and I'm thinking that maybe the House Intelligence Committee needs to put him under oath and ask him why he was trying to dig up and work with Russian operatives to get compromising materials on Trump uh for the purpose of uh obviously impacting the American uh political electorate.
I mean that sounds like collusion.
As you've covered, Sean, the entire collusion narrative around President Trump was a distraction so that there wouldn't be a thorough investigation of the extent to which uh the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton were colluding with Russians and Ukrainians to try to dig up lies about the president to try to embarrass him really both before and after the election.
And now you just played for our listeners, Adam Schiff colluding more with Ukrainian comedians than Donald Trump ever colluded with the Russians.
My question is this, Sean, how can Adam Schiff continue as the chairman of the Intelligence Committee when he has to be trusted by the intelligence community, the brave Americans and patriots that are ensuring that our freedom is protected when he has lied to the American people for twenty-two months.
I believe it puts our national security in jeopardy to allow someone who is not trustworthy, who has been proven a liar to continue in this significant role.
Wow.
I agree with you.
And I don't know, is there a process, Matt Gates, of removing Adam Schiff from that position as chairman of the ever so powerful and important House Intelligence Committee, considering he has told so many lies, he's given out so much misinformation.
He's obviously still on a Russian witch hunt, even in spite of the exculpatory uh uh document that was put out by the AG as it relates to the Mueller report.
Uh I know Jim Jordan and Mark Meadows, uh, they have written individuals that they're looking further into this issue of whether or not we will in fact get to uh whether or not he deserves to be the chairman of that committee.
Remember uh Devin Nunes was forced to recuse himself.
And what a double standard that was, Sean, because there is a process.
We know there's a process because you had people trying to drive Devin Nunez out of the chairmanship through that process because he dared to tell the president of the United States that there was illegal surveillance that was occurring to try to undermine the credibility of his presidency.
So Devin Nunez was ultimately cleared by the ethics committee.
It was all just fake uh uh a fake attempt to smear him, but they did try to affect the process to remove him.
So if Devin Nunes can be removed temporarily uh and set aside for doing the right thing, then why shouldn't we remove Adam Schiff for doing the wrong thing?
Well, it seems that that should happen, and I don't know what the process is, but I hope it begins.
Uh uh Dr. Mark Green, Congressman Green, good to talk to you again.
Your thoughts on what you just heard.
I bet most people haven't heard that collusion tape, but it's real.
He doesn't know it's a hoax.
Sounds like he's colluding to get dirt from Russia to influence our elections.
Yeah, Sean, thanks for having me on the show.
It it's great to be on with uh Congressman Gates, too.
Look, it it's absolutely ludicrous to think that uh Adam Schiff is out there saying that he saw he had he had his hands-on evidence, and then you know, of course, now uh there is no evidence.
So he I mean that that's dishonesty.
And it uh at a minimum it's some uh standard of evidence that uh you know makes no sense, is is ridiculous.
Um I mean and and he has been underhanded.
We met with this guy Gibbons out in Colorado.
Um he needs to be gone, and uh for the credibility of the Intel committee for the credibility of the U.S. House, uh Speaker Pelosi needs to remove him immediately.
Well, I would think that that would happen, but apparently it's not gonna happen.
And uh just like, you know, when these statements were made by Congresswoman O'Marr, uh, we saw that there was an unwillingness to just condemn her even by name for what look like uh pattern now of uh virulent and anti-Semitic statements, and they just gave a watered down what we we say anybody of any that does anything wrong is wrong, but we don't challenge her.
Uh I think maybe there's some fear on Nancy Pelosi's part.
You know, let me ask you both, how do we go forward?
In other words, the hard work that now needs to be done in terms of what has gone wrong here in this process.
In other words, we have a rigged investigation into Hillary.
We have money flying all over the place, funneled through a law firm to a op research group to a foreign national.
Foreign national digging up and making up Russian lies that eventually were disseminated via leaks to the media, the Washington Post, and David Korn and Michael Izikov to influence American voters before an election.
That unverified dossier that Hillary Clinton paid for with Russian lies was also used as you both know for four FISA applications.
We know it's unverifiable because Christopher Steele himself says I have no idea if any of this is true, and most of it now has been debunked.
It was unverifiable from the beginning.
How do we hold these people accountable?
And then those people that were in the upper echelon layers of the Department of Justice under the Obama administration, like Loretta Lynch, or in the Intel community like Clapper and Brennan and even top FBI officials like uh Comey and McCabe and Strzok and Page and other people at justice like uh Sally Yates.
When are they going to be held accountable?
And what should be done to make ensure that this can never happen again?
Uh Matt Gates.
Yes, Sean.
First thing we need is full transparency.
We need the President to declassify all the investigative materials that can be declassified so that we find out the true extent of the lies, and we find out who was really running these illegal investigations out of the White House.
You've reported extensively on Peter Strzok and Lisa Page saying the White House is running this, the President wants to know everything, obviously referring to President Obama.
So we've got to do transparency, then we've got to do investigations, and then the third and final thing is we need to legislate some solutions so that secret courts in the future can never use political opposition research to politicize our intelligence community.
We've been telling people for two years that's what's happened.
Now we've obviously been proven right.
Adam Schiff actually proposed a bill that would have cleaned up the FISA process that would have given the president appointment powers and given the Senate confirmation powers and shown us how these judges think.
I went and filed Adam Schiff's own bill, and because he doesn't want to give President Trump the powers he wanted to give President Obama, Adam Schiff will literally not co-sponsor his own bill to clean up the FISA process.
Only in Washington, Sean.
Yeah, only in Washington is right.
All right, 800 941 Sean is our toll-free uh telephone number if you want to be a part of the program.
All right, final thoughts as we continue with Congressman Matt Gates and Congressman Mark Green.
Umward, how do we write this ship?
Because if we don't get this right, if we don't hold people accountable that we know violated laws, abuse power, were involved in corruption, rigging investigations, trying to steal a presidential election and influence its outcome, and then undo a duly elected president.
You know, uh Congressman Green, I we don't have a country then.
We don't have our constitution then.
We don't have a free, fair, open elections then.
Yeah, I could again, I couldn't agree more, and I could uh echoing what uh you know Matt said earlier.
This issue of standards of evidence and what can actually be considered evidence in front of committees, you know, there has to be some standard for that.
It has to be defined.
You know, kind of reflecting back to your earlier question about what can be done next.
I mean, clearly, too, we we are gonna have to lean on our Senate colleagues because they do have the majority over there, and they can dig into some investigations that we're not able to start over here.
You know, you take the uh the embassy stuff in in Ukraine, putting pressure on uh uh you know, on those guys not to investigate.
I mean, we've got to dig into this stuff, and and unfortunately we're gonna have to rely on the Senate in the near term, but but again, in the long term, as Matt said, we need legislation that defines what what evidence can be brought before a committee and what can be relied on, and we certainly can't allow dishonest people to be in charge of our committees.
Last word, Matt Gates.
Well, Sean, this will happen again if we don't fix the problem.
And that's why we can't just move on.
We have to show the country who was telling them the truth and who was lying to them.
And I think this is important context as we head into the 2020 election.
The historic achievements of this president, ending wars, renegotiating trade deals, reinvigorating the American Economy.
He did it all facing the strong headwinds of this terrible witch hunt.
Imagine what we can do if we're liberated from this terrible experience.
All right, Matt Gates, thank you.
Uh and Dr. Mark Green, Congressman, thank you as well.
800 941 Sean.
Toll Freak telephone number, our news roundup information overload hour next hour.
Bill O'Reilly will check in with us.
We'll get his take on the media's abusive and biased and frankly unethical uh conduct the la the last two years, lying about the president every minute, hour, second of every day.
And uh also don't forget Hannity tonight, nine Eastern, the President Donald Trump, he will join us as our special guest and respond to what a week this has been.
straight ahead.
*music*
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload in the final hour of the Sean Hannity show.
Maybe he's not really under audit.
Like all of those little things might be true.
Okay, that'd be interesting to know.
I don't know that that would change the world that much.
But what would change the world is if, you know, Russia was interfering in the election and they weren't doing it on their own, and he was in on it after all the worry.
We are actually about to find out if Russia maybe has something on the new president.
We're about to find out if the new president of our country is going to do what Russia wants once he's commander-in-chief of the U.S. military.
We haven't ever had to reckon with the possibility that somebody has ascended to the presidency of the United States to serve the interests of another country rather than our own.
What's the corrective to that?
How do you remedy that?
These are no longer hypothetical questions.
This is where we are.
He received the order of friendship from Vladimir Putin personally, the highest civilian award that Russia gives to non-Russian citizens.
Somehow Rex Tillerson ended up as the U.S. Secretary of State under Donald Trump, who he'd never met.
If Muller is proceeding without being throttled, without being stymied, and he's proceeding at this kind of a pace, rolling out this stuff right now.
Um, this everything is aiming aiming right at the president personally, and that's got to be very unsettling.
Legal Jeopardy here not only enters the president's immediate family, it also enters the White House.
Is our president subordinate to a foreign power?
Yeah.
Does our president answer to a foreign government and a foreign leader?
The worst case scenario that the president is a foreign agent uh suddenly feels very palpable.
Donald Trump acts at Russia's behalf.
When he meets with Vladimir Putin, he won't tell the country what was said.
Just because he's not been criminally indicted for collusion, doesn't mean he has conducted colluding types of behavior with the Russians.
Do you agree with Andrew McCain it's possible that this the president of the United States, the president, is a Russian asset?
Well, the way I completely agree with the way Andy characterized it, you know, the the this it is a possibility.
what a great case officer Vladimir Putin is.
He knows how to handle an asset, and that's what he's doing with the president.
Our institutions are under assault, both externally, and that's the big news here, is the Russian interference in our election system.
And I think as well, our institutions are under assault internally.
Internally from the president?
Exactly.
To assert that uh this has nothing to do with with uh the president.
Uh either as as a president or as a candidate or the White House is is that is just silly.
Do you think that the Russia investigation is fake news or a witch hunt as the president keeps tweeting and saying?
Well, I don't believe it is.
To me, it stretches credulity to think that the Russians didn't have profound impact that could have swung swung the election.
People are innocent until alleged to be involved in some type of criminal activity.
There was an extensive effort to um try to influence the outcome of the election that involved uh the Russians that involved U.S. persons, uh, and that uh may have gone to the very top of the Trump campaign.
There's collusion in plain sight.
Uh, Donald Trump at the end of July openly called on Russian intelligence to find Hillary Clinton's emails.
Certainly his tweets uh do not uh seem like they're coming from a person of of innocence and confidence.
I don't think Robert Mueller will want to have that dramatic uh flair of the eyes of marsh when he is going to be delivering what I think are gonna be his indictments, the final indictments, as well as uh the report that he gives the attorney general.
I think he's afraid of the president of Russia.
Why?
Um well, I think one can speculate as to why uh that the Russians may have something on him personally.
This is nothing short of treasonous because it is a betrayal of the nation.
He is giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
I think there's a big question first of all in terms of those who are on Mr. Trump's national security team whether they can continue to serve in good conscience an individual who basically betrayed his nation.
I called his behavior treasonous which is to betray one's trust and to aid and abet the enemy and I stand very much by that claim.
All right news roundup and information overload hour here on the Sean Hannity show holding them accountable.
How does the country move forward and if we don't get it right what would the ramifications be?
Really important questions because it's not something that can be fixed in one day, one show, one week, even month or it this this will take a long time fundamentally the systems of checks and balances as it relates to the most powerful people in the upper echelons of our Department of Justice and in the FBI were abusing in the intelligence community were abusing the power and
the powerful tools of intelligence we gave them against us and trying to literally impact and direct the outcome of a presidential election and undo a sitting president by using Russian lies to bludgeon him.
Anyway, Bill O'Reilly is with us, bestselling author, 15 number one bestselling books, including in his Killing series.
He also has now announced that he is doing a book called The United States of Trump.
The president really sees America with what you're saying, Bill, is going to be very different from any other book for a lot of different reasons.
And why is that?
Well, because I know him for so long and.
uh it's a history book um it hasn't been a history book written on Donald Trump and his family and how he uh got to the Oval Office and which is an amazing almost impossible feat only two people in the world could have done that Hannity Trump and Oprah.
Oprah could have done it.
But that's it two people on the planet.
So the book is basically uh no anonymous sources just the facts here's how he did it and he did it nobody did it for him.
You know that's the thing I mean everyone talks about what influence people have around Trump.
Now I've known him like you for a long time and what I've what I know about him is he does l listen to people.
He he asks really really tough hard questions but at the end of the day he makes up his own mind.
And if he was so susceptible to people's input uh I think probably at least 40, 50 thousand people said maybe you should stop tweeting or cut back on your tweeting and he still continues to communicate to the American people uh by social media and in the end he's made me a believer because you know look at the way he can bypass a very corrupt media in this country today.
Well he certainly doesn't listen to me well you know what I don't know who he listens to the only guy that may not be true.
I think if he listens to somebody and he agrees with them he will it make sense to him I've always it's interesting the only person that he directly listened to was his father Fred nobody else in his life his entire life that he listened to in that regard.
So if Fred Trump said something to him, he put it in writing.
He put it in his notebook.
Now, I've had long conversations with Donald Trump over the years, so have you.
And, you know, I always encourage Tim to, A, be fair, because sometimes he isn't, and, B, don't provoke, don't hit the snake nest if you don't have to.
But here's what people don't understand.
He likes to hit the snake nest because he wants action, action, action.
then out of the chaos he usually benefits and that is uh I'll give you tons of examples in the book of how he stirs it up and then in the end He benefits just like the Mueller report.
Now it's a little bit different because he didn't want this and he didn't bring it upon himself.
But he's gonna benefit greatly from the Mueller report, particularly in his re-election efforts.
Well, let's talk about the Mueller report, and there's a lot of aspects to it.
Um more fundamentally, let's just start with the media side of this, which is decide you you know, you that's your profession for all your life.
And I we have had never ending, nonstop bordering on psychotic rage and hatred every second minute hour of any given day, and this anticipation that we got 'em.
We got 'em.
We got 'em.
Not yet, but we're close.
We're getting them.
Treason.
You know, well, I just played for you some of Rachel Maddow's bizarre conspiracy theories and Clapper and Brennan, you know, Brennan accusing him multiple tr times of treason, you know, with predictions that the presidency is going to end, telling their audiences, creating an anticipation that the presidency is is on the brink of now ending.
And it's not true.
It was based on lies.
And they, you know, the evidence was overwhelming and incontrovertible that a very different story was happening that I was following with a few others, where in fact there was Russian influence.
It was disseminated via leaks to the press uh before the election.
It was used to obtain a Pfizer warrant to deny an American citizen their constitutional rights and also open a back door to spy on the Trump campaign.
All of that happened and then used to undo an election thereafter.
And they knew it was never verified because it's an unverifiable document when its own author doesn't stand behind it.
Well, I I'm wondering whether when the Washington Post and New York Times give their Pulitzer prizes back for journalism because their stories were based on false premises, all right?
Whether they'll give those Pulitzer to you, Hannity.
I think it'll be right up there, Bill.
I think they're gonna well wait a minute now.
I know you're you you think I'm joking, but I'm not.
So say uh the Justice Department comes back with Horowitz, basically confirming everything you just said in in your mini monologue.
What happens then?
So they're gonna go, well, Hannity was been saying this for a year, year and a half, and here's the Justice Department confirming that the FBI not only booted the Hillary Clinton email investigation, but broke laws trying to investigate the Trump campaign when they knew it was bogus.
So if that happens, then everything that you've been saying on television radio will come true.
And shouldn't you be given credit for that?
Uh Bill, I'll go I'll play along, but you and I both know that hell will freeze over before this day ever happens.
In twenty plus years at Fox News, I never got an award.
I never got anything, even though I was a dominant number one for sixteen years straight.
By the way, you can have that back.
I'm I'm perfectly willing to go back to number two.
I'm uh I'm happy doing BillO'Reilly.com and writing books that sell a million copies.
But um what I'm trying to get at is not gonna be any accountability, but here's how it's gonna shake, and I I'm almost 100% on this.
Those pundits like Brennan and those people, they're done.
Okay, so they're they're done.
Kirsten Powers is of the world, that that kind of thing.
The Never Trumpers, Crystal, Peggy Noonan, these people finished.
But Matt Al and uh Cuomo on CNN and and Tapper and uh and uh what's his name, the Meet the Press Guy, um Chuck uh Todd and by the way Chuck Todd.
They can't they the the big corporations who pay them can't admit that they were dishonest and misleading, so they have to keep them there.
But what's gonna happen, and you saw it Monday night is that their ratings are gonna collapse.
MSNBC and CNN's ratings Monday night.
By the way, and I I will say this to your credit.
You're like a rating savant.
You predicted to me they're all going to collapse immediately.
Because the American people Aren't stupid.
Some of them are zombies.
And you see that no matter what, they're they're gonna be progressives or they're gonna be far right people.
They're zombies.
Okay, that's what they're gonna do.
But there's not that many of them.
Most Americans, when they get conned, they don't go back.
So so what is MSNBC?
The fraud network now?
Um, hey, would you like to watch some fraud for an hour?
I think it's the tinfoil conspiracy hat theory network, but myself same thing.
Of course it is, I actually think it's worse than that.
I think they consciously lied.
They got so rapidly.
I disagree.
I'm not sure.
You think they believe this?
There is some of that.
The the lying, there's some of it, but you have to understand, and I know these people I think better than you do.
They believe it.
Rachel Maddow believes everything she says.
But it's it's like believing that that we're gonna be invaded from Venus, and I saw the Venus Martians.
I saw them.
But Bill, there's a there's a there's a track record here.
You know, and I I've told the story many times how I got Richard Jewell right when I was a local host in Atlanta, Georgia.
And uh uh and I'm gonna give you the list when I get back.
It's not by accident that we usually get it right when nobody else sees it.
And uh Bill O'Reilly's with us.
This last question I'm I'm saying to everybody if we don't hold these people accountable, this will happen to future presidents, and I'm not sure that this the audience I think will hold them accountable.
I think that you're gonna see all of the people who went on the witch hunt suffer in the marketplace.
Okay.
Bill O'Reilly, uh Bill O'Reilly.com.
If uh you want to see what Bill's up to every day.
Um, and we'll link it to Hannity.com.
Bill, always a pleasure.
Thanks for taking the time.
Thanks very much, Sean.
See you.
800 941 Sean, you want to be a part of the program.
All right, I know many of you want to talk.
You've been dying, chomping at the bit.
We've had a busy week.
Holding them accountable.
We're only in the beginning stages of this, and uh we'll get to your calls when we come back.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program.
All right, before we go any further today, we have a very big announcement to make.
Now, there is an award that's known as the Gracie Award.
Um, remember George Burns and Gracie Allen.
And I mean, that this is probably the number one most prestigious awards for powerful women in high places and in business and industry and for example in television and radio.
Well, the winner of the Gracie Award for the number one greatest producer in the entire country is our very own talk radio lover, coffee lover, Singapore lover, Linda McLaughlin.
And she has been receiving flowers and balloons and cupcakes and you know, uh a special trip that she has coming up, and we're so proud of you, we're so happy, so well deserved.
Um, and it kind of hit me out of nowhere, except you know, she tell she told everybody, don't tell Sean.
Yeah, okay.
You you all heard it.
Don't why would you do that?
Why would you not want to tell me?
Uh-huh.
Okay.
I'm worried about, but this is a huge accomplishment.
Explain what this award is, because you know more about.
You know, I'll be honest with you, I actually don't know a whole lot about it until I got nominated.
Uminated.
And um, just to be clear, I I I believe I won in the talk format.
So there's a few different formats.
Uh seven people get nominated every year uh in these various formats, and I was nominated in your format.
And uh yeah, I won.
So there's a gala, and they basically support women in media, and um yeah, so I won.
Um but but really this is this is a big deal because there's so many people that are vying for these awards, nominated for these awards, and when I was talking to you earlier about it, because you tried to keep it from me, which is often the case.
You have a first of all, you don't even go to your own award ceremonies.
You you made the Marconi's, you won uh broadcast.
I know I picked up I won, I I went to the Marconi's, I went to Talkers Magazine when I won the.
I had to work.
There was breaking news.
Yeah, well, you know, I had to work.
The Mola report was out.
You know, there wasn't a lot of time to talk about awards.
But I have to say, Yeah.
I am a huge fan of balloons and flowers.
And um, if awards is what gets me these, I want to start creating awards.
Do you really?
You know, like my best dress producer, girl with the best.
Oh boy, here we go.
You know, good good makeup today.
I'm thinking Well, there are so many other people that were nominated and well known names, and the fact that you got this nomination and won the award outright as you did, is a tribute to you and your hard work and your dedication and your lifelong passion, and it couldn't go to a better person.
And we're so proud of you.
I have a great team, though.
I can't I mean I told Ethan last night when I found out.
Well, I say that all the time, and it isn't.
Makes a village.
I I've never had a better teams on both radio and TV in my my 30 years now in radio.
Yep, we gotta give it a Tiff one now.
Now it's Tiff's turn.
Well, we sh well nominate Tiff.
That's what I'll do.
Yeah.
All right.
Um so um we won't announce what we talked about earlier, but we have something special planned for Linda.
And um I think it's gonna be a great time for you.
All right, thank you, boss.
All right, now you can take the rest of the day off.
You're done.
Okay, I'll see you later.
It's only 5 45.
Yeah, all right.
Uh all right, let's get to the phones.
Uh Donna Staten Island.
What's up, Donna?
How are you?
Glad you called.
First of all, congratulations, Linda.
Yes, Linda.
Congratulations.
You're awesome.
Donna gets that caller of the year award.
Okay.
Now we should we know we should give out awards for great callers.
And I'll say one thing too, Donna.
You know, all I talk about the keyboard leftist warriors in their underpants, you know, they're all courageous at you know, hiding behind their computer screens.
But there are some really amazing people online on Twitter, on social media, and they are really they're keyboard investigated reporters.
And they've done a lot of great work throughout this entire witch hunt that has been extraordinarily helpful to people like me, I can tell you that.
And to people like me, to keep me going, to keep me believing that we're not just a voice in the wilderness, which is very important.
Exactly.
Because otherwise it's very easy to lose hope sometimes when you see the insane things that go on.
And speaking of insanes, This whole Jesse Smullett thing.
Um, I don't know if I'm correct, but I thought I heard somebody say yesterday that before they excused him, you know, with this whole thing, that they said they felt he had been through enough.
Now, I don't know if somebody just said that or if that was the mindset behind letting him get away with this whole situation.
But if that's the case, then when can we expect Paul Manafort to be set free?
When can we expect Michael Flynn and um the other gentleman I think is Michael Caruso?
I I always get confused with his name.
But these are people that have lost everything as far as uh what's the case.
Oh, you're talking about Michael Caputo, yeah.
Michael Flynn.
Michael Michael Caputo, right, thank you.
Um those men have been wiped out.
I saw Michael Caputo on TV today, and he was saying like he had to go into his kids' college fund just to defend himself.
So when can we expect I've heard Roger Stone is is now towards bankruptcy.
We know General Flynn is not only bankrupt, had to sell his home, he's he's now five million dollars in debt paying lawyers he can't afford.
And lives are ruined.
And uh, you know, you you look at some of these cases and you just think to yourself, this is how we treat 33 year veterans that serve their country and uh many of those years in combat, and they don't get the benefit of the doubt.
And you've got a deputy FBI director saying you don't need a lawyer, and then the FBI director bragging that, yeah, we we we sent them in on uh uh on day four of the Trump administration.
We wouldn't do it during the Bush or Obama administrations.
Uh it's so unfair uh how he was treated in that case.
And what about how Paul Mountafort was put in solitary confinement?
I mean, come on, the guy did not do anything that warranted being put in solitary confinement.
Rudy said the other night that you know these only put when he was going after mobsters, they only put one guy in solitary confinement.
Yeah, it's just crazy.
And then there's one other thing, uh Jesse Justy, or however you say his name, he said he's his mother's son.
Wasn't his mom like friends with all these terrorists, and isn't she like an avowed socialist and all this stuff?
So he's basically confessing that this is he's his mother's son.
Well, Lottie Da.
You know, I don't know if I'd be bragging about that.
Well, uh you know, I this is the most upsetting part of this you've got witnesses now that are w testifying that yeah this was a uh a hate crime hoax you've got them on video tape buying the very things that were used in the hoax we've got the video tape uh you have a police uh Eddie Johnson the police superintendent he's saying uh this is a slam dunk case and I would bring it again and what we see is once again
It's not equal justice under the law.
It's a two tiered justice system.
And it's, you know, for the rich and powerful like Hillary Clinton.
And that's why I say if we ever want to get this right and fix what has happened, this whole mess and hold people accountable, it starts with her and the rigged investigation into her and her involvement by funneling money to hire a foreign spy to dig up phony dirt, make up phony lies about her opponent that results in propagandizing the American people before the election.
Number one and number two is then used to deny constitutional rights to an American citizen.
And it gave them a backdoor into the Trump campaign and creating this whole narrative that that the country putting the country through something that was a hoax, that was a known hoax from the very beginning.
If there if there's not a price to pay for those that broke the law, then we're never gonna get the country back.
Kimberly, Cincinnati, 55KRC.
Kimberly, you're a great American.
God bless you.
I want a full report.
Hi, Sean.
Thank you so much for taking my call, and God bless you, too.
I was a magistrate in the county court for almost 10 years, and I filed an employment discrimination claim, and I'm going through a lot of the similar things that you've been seeing on the national stage with your career ruined, your reputation ruined, and I'll tell you something.
And it has given me a whole different perspective being a litigant.
I filed my federal case than being someone who sat on the bench.
And I'll tell you, in all honesty, I have lost faith in the justice system in this country, and it's very sad.
You know, it's either going to recover very quickly, and Attorney General Barr so far is doing his job.
But if we don't have an investigation into every aspect of FISA, every aspect of Hillary's email server, the obstruction case, the biggest slam dunk obstruction case I've ever seen, deep state actors that clearly had an insurance plan to undermine a duly elected
president, those that tried to influence the election and its outcome by protecting the favored candidate and trying everything in their power to undermine the candidate that they didn't like and denied the smelly Walmart voters, supporters of his their right to pick the president of their choice.
That all has to be gotten to the bottom of.
And, you know, in order to have justice in this country under our laws, you have to
have two things you have to have blind justice and it has to be equal and that doesn't exist anymore and I'm finding that in my own situation but um going up against public officials I'll tell you it seems that instead of interest in public service most of the public officials I'm coming up against have the same uh concern of just keeping their power and maintaining their power at any cost whether it's lying and affidavits or anything like that.
I mean it's shocking it's absolutely upsetting and the media is totally asleep at the wheel or worse yet they're it's been worse than that making it rot they have no interest they their agenda was clear from the get go and they wanted Hillary just like they wanted Obama.
They never vetted Obama they never vetted Hillary.
Their coverage of Trump was one-sided from day one and then they got the shock of their life uh when he was elected president they laughed at the idea that he would run the idea that he could win and he shocks the world they don't like him at all and their rage and hatred grew into a psychotic rage and hatred over time every second minute hour of every day.
And with that came you know anonymous sourcing breathless hysterical coverage every day.
We got him we got him we got him again in a story storm starring rush, rush.
And they cannot control themselves.
They're spun out of control.
But in the process, they've lost such perspective that they didn't even either they knew or they didn't know.
I believe they got to be smarter than that.
They woke up every morning.
How do we hurt Trump today?
You know, it was all one agenda.
It's it it literally consumed every second of their coverage.
And they built up anticipation in their audiences that we're almost almost there.
We got him.
We got him.
If we don't get him on this, now let's get them on this, this, this, and this.
There won't be a retraction.
There'll never be an apology.
There's never going to be a coming to Jesus moment and introspection and reflection about how wrong they've been.
And it's not just Trump.
There's, you know, look what they did to a 16-year-old kid because of their rage towards Trump.
And that Nicholas Sandman and the Covington high school kids.
You know, look at how desperately they wanted to believe to the guys in MAGA hats beat up Jesse Smollett.
You know, they wanted that so badly.
You know, why is it that they come down on the wrong side of almost every major issue because they have their own agenda.
They are tied at the hip.
They are one.
The news media in this country is an extension of this new radical extreme Democratic Party.
And unfortunately, I was right.
I did not say it lightly.
It was not a cute line that I thought of when I said in 07, journalism is dead.
They did not vet Obama.
They loved Obama.
They loved on Obama.
They were captivated by Obama.
And they helped Obama win the election by not doing their job, which is why our vetting of Obama was unique and different.
You know, that's why, you know, that they're usually rushing to judgment, and I'm waiting.
I'm waiting to see.
Uh uh, I actually go out and meet the Duke LaCrosse kids and some of some of the kids, some of their families and their mothers and fathers.
And in the end, they had to prove their own innocence.
Thank God that some of them took out money from a bank.
Thank God others, you know, went into a dorm room at a certain time that was clocked by a security camera.
Or the UVA rape case, the rush to judgment there.
You know, or though they believed on day one that all these cops in Baltimore were going to be convicted.
They were told that.
All right, 800-941 Sean toll free telephone number.
All right, tonight, Hannity 9 Eastern.
Yes, a hard hitting.
We are gonna go every night, five people that need to be investigated and specifically tell you what they need to be investigated for.
But the big story tonight, Hannity, yes, the president of the United States, Donald Trump is going to respond to the Mueller report, the issues of the day, and much more.
All coming up, nine Eastern on Fox on Hannity, and we'll see it tonight, and we'll see you back here tomorrow.
