It doesn't seem like he has the energy and the ability, the mental alertness to just get through this thing.
And I mean, this is now a crisis for the Democrats.
We choose truth over facts.
Okay.
Yeah, but when I was vice president and I met those kids in Parkland, they came up to see me.
Well, that wasn't vice president.
Poor kids are just as bright as white kids.
Good luck with that, creepy crazy.
Um, Margaret Thatcher.
Okay, Margaret Thatcher, Reagan, and Pope John Paul II, they changed the world.
That was in the 80s.
This is now 2019.
That's a long, long, long, long time ago.
And uh I don't know.
I mean, add to it all the other dumb, stupid things that this guy has said over the years.
Well, we'll play them all for you.
And but I'll tell you, it's a disastrous situation because he was supposed to be the establishment choice for the Democrats.
All right, so what's their fallback?
Is it Beto Bozo?
I doubt it.
We have Bozo's uh, even his own hometown is refusing to support him.
They're now urging in the Houston Chronicle, their editorial ball board calling on Robert Francis Beto Bozo O'Rourke to uh get out of the race for 2020 and return to Texas, run for senator.
We just lost running for Senate.
And he's not gonna win the next time running for Senate either.
Doesn't matter.
Beto come home, Bozo come home.
I don't think that's gonna work.
Uh Kamala Harris has gone so hardcore.
New green deal stupidity of AOC and company.
Uh she can't back off of that.
She's stuck.
Um, I she almost looked mad.
I've always thought that like one of Bill Clinton's gifts as a politician.
Now, bear with me here, is that Bill Bill Clinton, for those people that met him, always said to me that he made you feel like the most important person in the world when you met him and he gave his full attention.
Obama, like his policies or not, had a warmth about him.
And I don't I saw Kamala Harris, she looked pissed when an old person said, Don't take my health care.
And I I just I don't see it.
Between the radical positions that she has, I mean, you say this about Donald Trump.
Um, people find him warm and engaging.
Yeah, I know that Democrat What?
What do you mean?
I mean, when he's doing his thing and he's on stage, there is a connection.
I think his son referred to it best when they called him a blue-collar billionaire.
Um, because though he it is obvious he cares about this country and people, and it's there's a connection there.
The media doesn't see it.
You know, the mob will never see it.
The mob, they they're they're beside themselves that he's president.
They can't believe that they didn't get everything they wanted out of Robert Mueller, and and they are fit to be tied, and now they're just doubling down on the lies and the conspiracy theories and the propaganda and the Russian misinformation.
They don't care.
All right, so if it's not Kamala, and it's not Biden, that leaves you with what?
Warren?
That leaves you with Bernie.
I would say as of today, Joe Biden's odds have gone down precipitously in terms of him being able to win this nomination and navigate through this process to get to the point where he's gonna get the nomination because I'm gonna tell you, he's scaring the crap out of every Democrat.
I mean, Iowa Democrats are worried.
There was a New York magazine piece about this.
Local party figures expressing concern about Biden's onstage performance and the notion of his electability.
He isn't as uh compelling verbally.
Madison County Party chairman told the Washington Post there is starting to be a real fear that he cannot hold his own in a debate against Donald Trump, but hold his own.
Donald Trump will wipe the floor with with creepy late, sleepy, creepy, crazy Uncle Joe.
I it's just it's not even gonna be a contest.
If I'm Trump today, I'm begging for Biden.
I take and and frankly, any of them.
They're all weak candidates.
They're all radical.
They all want socialism.
They all are going to take the most extreme positions.
The difference is in the past, would maybe McGovern 72 would be an exception.
Most Democratic socialists would hide who they really are.
I mean, let's be honest.
Barack Obama gave a great speech, a lot of platitudes, and a lot of bumper stickers and a lot of slogans, and yes, we can, and Obama, and he delivered it with passion and an energy, and uh he had an ability to connect with people, but in his heart of hearts, we're out there vetting them.
Nobody wanted to pay attention because they were too locked into the fantasy that Barack Obama would be a great leader.
And in his case, I'll, you know, I would argue he was an indoctrinated radical leftist from the get-go.
And unlike Bill Clinton, who was once a governor in the state of Arkansas, who had at least some understanding of what a conservative was.
Slick Willie.
Where Red State America is.
You know, remember, he changed after Hillary Kerr flopped.
That was when the era of big government was over.
The end of welfare as we know it.
When have we ever heard anything like that from any of these Democrats?
It's not gonna happen.
Anyway, so pretty much everybody in Iowa is freaked out over the disaster of a weekend that sleepy, creepy, crazy Uncle Joe had.
I mean, poor kids is just as bright as white kids.
Challenge these students.
We should challenge students in these schools to have advanced placement programs in these schools.
We have this notion that somehow, if you're poor, you cannot do it.
Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.
Wealthy kids, black kids.
Hello?
So we have the we have the shootings in El Paso and the shooting in Dayton within hours of each other.
And he expressed condolences for shooting victims in Houston and in Michigan.
He didn't get one city right in that particular case.
Um referring to, he started to refer to Theresa May thinking it was Margaret Thatcher.
That was for a second time, by the way.
It was not the first time.
He confused the former British Prime Minister Theresa May with her long-dead now counterpart, the Iron Lady Margaret Thatcher.
That was the second time he's done that since May.
That is not a particularly good sign that he's got it together.
And then he kind of hit the gaff trifector, claiming that Thomas Jefferson never served as president.
It's all happened within a 24-hour span.
You know, well, the first one was well, poor kids are just as bright as white kids.
Huh?
You know, and then, of course, my favorite is uh we choose truth over facts.
Okay.
Um, and then the next one claiming the the biggest heroes who never got the chance to serve as president is big as one was Thomas Jefferson.
Thomas Jefferson, yeah, he did also author the declaration, but Thomas Jefferson was president.
He was our third president of the United States.
And Biden was asked on Thursday about his favorite historical figure who was not president.
Okay, and he wasn't there.
It's vice president in 2018, meeting the kids uh from the Parkland shooting.
I mean, it goes on and on.
He's like a gaffe machine, a second.
And by and I'm putting aside, I mean, the fact that he got away with what he did when he talked about Obama.
I don't want to play them all now.
We'll play them later in the show.
But uh, you know, this this is this is storybook, man.
For the first time, first time, he's saying you got an African American that's articulate, clean, and bright.
Whoa.
Imagine Donald Trump said that for just a second.
You imagine Donald Trump said, poor kids is just as bright as white kids.
My state's a slave state.
We're not a Northeastern, we're a slave state.
Okay.
And he praises, let's see, Robert, the former Klansman Byrd.
Everyone praise Byr, the Klansman.
Imagine Donald Trump praising Byrd.
The media Would have they'd have a collective heart attack at one, they'd all collapse.
Well, they're out there claiming that he's exterminating Latinos in concentration camps, detention centers at the border.
The ones with soccer fields, rec facilities, TVs, telephones, let's see, beds, blankets, cots, pillows, baby formula, doctors, everything.
Now, is it where you want to be in a detention center?
No.
I think I'd rather be there, though, in than in Chicago, where 59 people were shot.
Notice nobody talked about Chicago.
Not one person talked about Chicago.
Uh 59 people shot this past weekend total.
But I mean, Biden is a gaffed machine.
He just he goes on and on.
So one kid from Turning Point actually confronted him in Iowa, uh, asking him, well, how many genders are there?
And he said, at least three.
And then the guy says, Okay, what are they?
Don't play games with me, kid.
He thinks he's a tough guy.
Um, he really does.
He thinks he's, I'll take Donald Trump behind the school.
Well, I'm looking at he doesn't look like he has any energy.
I believe in truth over facts and those shootings that took place in Michigan and Houston, but I think my all-time favorite is listen, and this was during the fake news CNN primetime debate where he told voters directed him to go to Joe 30330.
This is the United States of America.
We've acted together.
We have never, never, never been unable to overcome whatever the problem was.
If you agree with me, go to Joe 3033 and help me in this fight.
Thank you very much.
If you agree with me, go to Joe 30330.
There's nothing there.
There is no Joe 3033.
And then one of the other candidates, which one was it?
Um Buddha judge.
Well, Yang made fun of him.
Yang made fun of him, but Buddha judge, that that's actually a pretty interesting story.
If you agree with Mayor P, go to Joe 30330, because uh, I don't know, I guess uh Buddha judge capitalized on on Biden's flub and called for campaign donations when he said, if you agree with me, go to Joe 30330.
And uh Buddha judge stepped in and they actually got the website, Joe30330.com, and it redirects to Buddha Judge's campaign for president.
That was pretty clever on their part.
Um I don't see I I right now they're in a state of panic.
The biggest problem that they all have is are two things.
One is they're so locked in to this new Green Deal insanity.
They are so locked into Medicare for all, they are so locked in, many of them for reparations, they're so locked into radical hard left positions, they're so locked into no wall, open borders, uh uh amnesty, everything's done by the government, no oil, no gas, no cows, no planes, no combustion engine.
They're so locked in that I I honestly could see a scenario unfolding.
Now, I say this with great trepidation, because my experience of 31 years tells me you never know what's gonna happen, you know, up until election day.
We don't know right now what we're going to be talking about when it comes election day 2020.
We don't know what issues will come up between now and then.
So you never know, but I don't see anybody emerging that has the ability to defeat Donald Trump.
And I see Donald Trump's enthusiasm.
The more they hate this man, the more the people that voted for him like him.
The more successful he becomes, the more energized and animated he is.
And America also has gotten used to the fact he's not an establishment figure and they like it.
He is what he promised to be, and that is a disruptor, an iconoclast.
And I'll tell you the other smart thing that any politician should learn from, two things.
Fight like hell for what you promised and fight and keep your promises.
And the president keeps doing that.
He could just run down the list.
There's what he promised, is what he delivered.
Promise, deliver, promise, deliver.
You want to get re-elected, make promises, fight like hell, and then deliver.
If you do that, I think you get re-elected.
We'll see.com where you will get the job of your dreams.
Best employment situation since 1969.
All right, this just breaking.
Apparently, the attorney general has uh stepped up in the Epstein issue.
Um anyway, the warden at this federal prison New York City, the Metropolitan Correctional Center, has uh been reassigned out of that post by the Attorney General Bill Barr.
And the U.S. Bureau of Prisons also placed two staffers there who've been assigned to Epstein's cell unit on administrative leave pending an ongoing investigation in Epstein's death.
Something is wrong here, because we also broke the story last night in that particular case that it's so odd.
Everything about this is odd, that one of the there was one person that was in the unit that wasn't even a correctional officer.
And then this mysterious cellmate transferred hours before the apparent sewers suicide.
They're supposed to look every 30 minutes, meaning the correctional guards and check on every prisoner in the unit.
They didn't do it.
It went on apparently for hours.
Uh the autopsies concluded, but um results are pending further information.
Probably if I had to guess toxicology.
Epstein's camp sent our friend Michael Bodden over to watch the autopsy, which is pretty fascinating to me.
At some point when he's able to talk, well, we'll have him on.
Um, you know, and then you have all these these Hollywood stars and Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton, and the only one that seems to be in the clear is the guy that threw his ass out of Mar-a-Lago 15, 16 years ago, which was Donald Trump.
But that doesn't stop the conspiracy theorists in Hollywood.
Oh no.
You got uh Deborah Messing, let's see, you got the lunatic Michael Moore.
Uh, you've got what's her name, uh Rosie O'Donnell.
Oh, they're all think Donald Trump is responsible.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour, 800-941 Sean.
Uh, we are following a situation, apparently San Antonio uh gunshots earlier today at a local immigration and custom customs enforcement office in San Antonio, according to local media reports,
and um local law enforcement responded around 3 a.m. this morning to shots fired at the Ice Field Office and police telling News 4, their local station down there that the man is to believe to have fired the shots from across the highway into the windows of the building.
The building does not have bulletproof windows, and at least one shot penetrated a window, and they have a 24-7 command center in there.
A lot of people in the building, and uh thank God nobody was hurt, but based on this, based on the logic that you know, everybody in talk radio, everyone on Fox, everybody, the president's responsible for El Paso.
Okay, that means that all of the people that attack anyone that believes in building a wall and board, they're responsible.
Just like Bernie Sanders is responsible for the shooting of Steve Scalise in that baseball field.
Just Elizabeth Warren is responsible for that nut job in Dayton.
That's based on what they say, based on what they're all these are their standards, and on our standards.
Um, I know a lot's been made.
Some of you got angry that I tweeted out after Chris Chris Cuomo, I guess, had this bit of a run-in, meltdown, you know, moment with some guy, I guess, at some event.
And maybe I'm a little sensitive to it because I've lived this life.
Um, look, I have said this many times, nobody believes me.
I don't think fame is a healthy thing.
That may sound really, really odd coming from somebody who chose to be, you know, and the weird thing is I really never chose that fame.
I chose, I wanted to be in talk radio.
I wanted to be on the air, I wanted to talk about issues, and when I got behind the microphone, it was just fun.
I wasn't thinking about where this was all gonna end up because I was working for free.
And my first job paid me 19 grand a year.
I I never thought I'd be successful at this by any objective measure, but I liked it.
I loved it.
I had fun.
I worked at it.
I mean, when I went to Huntsville, Alabama, I mean, I didn't know a single person in the state, and I'd stay up all night with the all-night overnight DJ, and I'd stay in a production room.
This was the old-style production room where you'd have a razor blade and you actually cut real tape, real to real tape, and then you'd have to put things together.
And now it's Jason's laughing as what?
You're laughing.
Why?
Those are the old days where you had to have the white grease pencil to mark your edits.
You had to mark your edit.
How many years that way?
Luckily, I didn't have to do it more than maybe a couple of years when I was at the end of the day.
No, I mean it's it is arduous work.
And but I had nothing else to do.
And you know, it was fun because the local station, the sister's accompanying station was uh ZYP, it was known as.
Today's hits yesterday's classics.
And anyway, so I'd sit there with the overnight DJ, and people would be calling in all night, and we'd be sitting there and we'd be talking to girls, and we thought it was fun.
We'd invite people down, they'd hang out with us.
We'd have a party there every night.
What was the tape, Sean?
Do you remember the woman who fell asleep on the air with you?
Oh no.
Try to wake her up.
That was at the ex-wife in New York.
That was at uh the old station, yeah.
Um, well, that was oh, this was the sweet.
There were so many great regular callers.
I did um my first year in New York, because I wanted to stay in radio when I started a Fox.
I did 11 at night till two in the morning.
Now, the X station, it's a like the station we're on in New York now, is a 50,000 watt clear channel powerful station.
For example, the station I was on in Huntsville was 770 on the AM dial.
At sun up and sundown, uh, we had to power down that station, and I could pick up WABC in New York in Huntsville, Alabama.
And I'd hear Bob Grant because my you know, car radio was tuned into my station.
Next thing I'd know, oh, okay.
Local stations pretty much off the air, and I'd hear, hey, the let's be heard, ladies and gentlemen.
Um God bless them.
I know.
So uh anyway, so there were a bunch of Camarty who slammed the beaches in Normandy, and we met him.
He came to some of our freedom concerts, and he had lost an eye, remember?
He was blind, he totally lost an eye.
Um, and he talked and spoke in detail.
I mean, imagine those kids slamming the beaches in Normandy, and uh uh what they faced, they they they literally will be mowed down right in front of them, and the odds of them getting to safety were next to zero, and the way they got there was stepping over their fellow dead Americans and other soldiers and body parts everywhere, but they did it.
I mean, it was an incredible sacrifice.
Then we had we just had like a cast of characters that would call in, and one of them was a woman named Candy, and Candy called in, and she would always do this.
Sean, I go, Candy, Sean, candy.
The great thing about late night radio is you didn't have all the ads, so you just keep going all night.
It'd be like, it would be wonderful.
You only have a couple of minutes of commercials.
Anyway, one night I go, Candy.
This is what I hear.
Shh.
It was the loudest snore ever.
We have this in our archives somewhere.
I know I have this tape.
So for the rest of the show, I'd keep I'd go to one caller, then I'd come back, Candy, shh.
And like the next night she calls, and I'm like, Candy.
We c we kept going back to it.
I played it.
She couldn't believe she had fallen asleep.
It was like a freight train.
It was sort of like the way Linda sneezes.
It's like that bad.
It was like an atomic earthquake.
Boom!
Wow.
Wow, we're not even an hour in.
Uh Ethan, is that not true?
The way that is a factual representation.
I'm Worried the building's gonna fall down every time you sneeze.
We have literally sound.
This is a soundproof room I'm in.
There's a big glass window separating us, which means she can't hit me, which is good.
Well, there's one spot where I consistently hit.
Yeah, go ahead.
Pound on the window like you do when you want to get my attention.
Go ahead.
Let's see if we can.
Let's see if we can hear it.
Oh, yeah, you have your mic on it.
Okay.
Of course we're gonna hear it that way.
Uh, you know what's amazing?
Nobody knows.
There's Mueller fallout going on right now.
You know, Greg Craig, who used to be Clinton's attorney?
He was indicted by Mueller.
And anyway, so the last time reporter's photographer scrambled after Greg Craig as he entered into the federal courthouse from the Capitol, he was shepherding a high-profile defendant.
And uh, but now he is now facing his own trial.
He's 74 years old.
He's the one in the defendant's chair, and he's facing a trial of felony charge of lying to and misleading Justice Department officials about his work with Paul Manafort for Ukraine's government.
I haven't heard anyone in the media because they can't bludgeon Trump.
Everything is Russia collusion doesn't matter unless you can bludgeon Trump.
Obstruction doesn't matter.
If it's Hillary Russia, nobody cares.
Trump, Russia lies, conspiracies, they they will spend two and a half years on it.
If it's obstruction, even though there's no underlying crime, like Keller as the Espionage Act, obstruction doesn't matter if you're a Democrat.
Only matters if you can bludgeon Trump.
You know, if uh sexual assault, I believers only believe if you can bludgeon Trump's uh choice for the U.S. Supreme Court, not the lieutenant governor of uh the Commonwealth of Virginia.
You know, that just like you blame the shooting in El Paso, but totally ignore the fact that the Dayton shooter was a Warren supporter, or the Scalese shooter was a Bernie Sanders supporter.
That that's how this media rolls.
That's why they are a mob.
It is a mob mentality.
You know, uh when they talk about manufactured crisis, they're just all echoing each other.
Russia, Russia, Russia, liar, liar, pants on fire, racist, racist, stormy, stormy, whatever the talking point is of the day, collusion, collusion, impeachment, impeachment.
It's this is now what we're gonna get throughout the entire election cycle through 2020.
This is it, and it's not going to change.
They are not gonna all of a sudden wake up and admit that they're wrong and acknowledge and and and correct what they have falsely reported, the lies they've told, the conspiracies they've spun, and say that they were wrong.
They're not gonna do it.
By the way, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris are pushing the anti-cop Ferguson lie.
Apparently, they've now latched on to the hands up, don't shoot, which we now know from eyewitnesses in that case.
Does it not matter that we we had an investigation, and the witnesses in the case were the people in Ferguson that bravely stood up, told the truth, and corroborated everything that in fact officer Darren Wilson, whose career ended for nothing in that particular case?
Do they not care?
Apparently not, because you know, it's five years since Ferguson.
And uh anyway, you got people now back quoting what they murdered this young man, Michael Brown.
That's not what happened.
We had a report released by Obama's Department of Justice, even saying otherwise.
But you got Warren and Harris reiterating the protesters' narrative in two separate tweets on the fifth anniversary.
Warren saying five years ago, Michael Brown was murdered by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri.
Michael was unarmed, yet he was shot six times.
I stand with activists and organizers and continue to fight for the justice for Michael.
If I was Darren Wilson, I would make a phone call right now, and I would call Nicholas Sandman and Richard Jewell's attorney down in Lynn Wood down in uh Georgia, and I sue her because she's saying he committed murder.
I have breaking news.
What?
We have found Candy sleeping on the air.
You did?
All right, go ahead.
Candy.
Hello, hello.
Candy fellows.
Hello.
This isn't the first time.
I told the story, right?
Candy.
And I'm gonna say, we'll put it on hold.
Maybe we'll come back.
I swear to God, this actually happened once at night.
Candy fell asleep on the air.
Where did you find that tape?
He said to Jason, I was like, Jason, we've played this before.
Please check the archives.
It is so funny, man.
Uh now, Elizabeth Warren said that Harris.
That's it.
That's it.
Everybody told the story.
Mike, thank you for getting Michael Bro.
This is what uh Kamala Harris.
Michael Brown's murder.
I'm telling, hire Lynn Wood.
I would sue the people saying this.
And by the way, jet setting crazy Bernie says global warming is a bigger threat than terrorism.
I mean, assuming that sleepy, creepy, crazy Uncle Joe can't step it up that he's just lost his fastball completely.
Even David Axelrod in a nice way said, Yeah, that's probably the best he's got.
And that's not gonna be good enough to defeat Donald Trump.
You know what the odd thing is, you got they're so locked in still.
You got Gerald Nadler is out there saying that impeachment proceedings have begun.
He said, formal impeachment proceedings.
Well, the problem is that that would violate house rules, what he said, and you got Congressman Doug Collins, who we really like a lot on this program.
He's the one that released the closed door transcripts of these that have shed so much light on what really was happening behind closed doors.
Anyway, he called out Nadler's claim.
Chairman Lat Nadler is either uninformed about what a formal impeachment inquiry is, or he's deliberately misleading the American people and public to score cheap political points, which is it, Chairman.
Any function of impeachment under Article 1 requires a majority vote in the House approving the measure.
Without that fail-safe, any committee could abuse the impeachment process and the court system and declare that they've started an impeachment proceeding which isn't valid or constitutional.
And Nadler doesn't want to appear to have the authority, uh doesn't appear to have the authority to launch it on his own, as Doug Collins points out.
That power would be with the House.
And if Democrats want to vote for that, I say go for it.
I I think that's a good idea for them to do that.
And Collins, a GOPA, told the examiner that, you know, he does dispute Nadler's assertion that they're currently conducting a formal impeachment proceeding.
House rules require a formal vote in order for the committee to begin conducting such an impeachment inquiry.
But they just they now have to appeal to this radical base of theirs.
And it's if Biden 3033 ever makes it, I mean, we should charge admission for great causes to get into that debate.
I completely agree with you.
Oh, I can't wait.
That would be the greatest experience ever.
And I, you know, everyone talks about the Trump debate after Access Hollywood, you know, and he said locker room talk.
By the way, I'm defending Chris Cuomo, too.
But you know what?
And I'm gonna tell you why.
I didn't finish my thought.
I've been through all of this.
I've and so much more, and I never finished my thought.
Fame isn't healthy, I don't think.
And the thing about fame is you you gotta be rooted in something.
Your faith, belief in God.
You know, I'm kind of rooted in, yeah, reality, which was that I didn't have any money when I started out doing this, and it just I always thought I was doing my last show.
But, you know, when you're with your nine-year-old daughter and your wife's in the room, and some jackass comes up to you and calls you Fredo or whatever, um, I could just sympathize with him being pissed off.
Now, I know for a lot of people, maybe you know, the salty language, but I'm gonna be honest about that too.
It's not anything Linda doesn't say every day.
We hear her say And you're welcome from my honesty.
Yeah, from my honesty.
Um that's I'm we've all heard these words.
That's why everyone they act so the feigning of outrage is uh it's an industry now.
The godfather would never be made today.
Let me say this.
I will abide by the peace.
We made it today.
But should something befall, some act of God, even an accident on my son.
I say to you, gathered here today.
I will get my revenge.
But the Godfather, how do you protect your identity and security online?
I do it in a very special way.
It's called semantic.
It's Norton Security.
Uh you make me do that.
It kills my throat to do that.
As they say my big business, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you the whole load today.
We got the first sort of mainstream freaking American.
Yeah, who is articulate and bright and clean and nice looking guy.
I mean, it's that's a storybook.
You're telling me we gotta go spend money to keep from going bankrupt.
You don't know my state.
My state was a slave state.
My state is a border state.
My state is the eighth largest black population in the country.
My state is anything from a northeast liberal state.
You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Duncan Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.
I'm not joking.
His mom uh lived in uh in Long Island for ten years or so.
Uh God rest her soul, and uh um although she's wait, your mom's still your mom's still alive as your dad passed.
God bless her soul.
A man who will be the next president of the United States, Barack America.
Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America.
Let's get that straight.
And quite frankly, um, it might have been a better pick than me.
So let me say it again.
Thank you, uh Terry, and thank you, uh Dr. Pepper, and thank you, Chancellor, uh Dr. Paper.
Romney wants to let the he said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let the big banks once again write their own rules.
Unchain Wall Street.
They're gonna put you all back in chains.
Think about what happened out in where Gabby Gifford, my good friend, was shot, mortally wounded.
Well, I say they're gonna start to see unemployment grow uh this spring.
Uh employment grow, I'm sorry.
Number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word.
Jobs.
J-O-B-S jobs.
See, I went to the big guys for the money.
I was ready to prostitute myself in the man the manner in which I talk about it.
Chuck Graham, State Senator's here.
Chuck, stand up, shop, let him see you.
Oh, God love you.
What am I talking about?
I tell you what, you're making everybody else stand up, though, pal.
Now is the time to heed the timeless advice from Teddy Roosevelt.
Speak softly and carry a big stick.
End of quote.
I promise you, the president has a big stick.
Union workers, the UAW took excredible cuts in their future and their and their pensions and the left to get GM working.
Now I'm like the token black with a token woman.
I was the token young person.
And guess what?
Mostly directed at quote, people of color.
You see it.
We got Jim Crow sneaking back in.
No, I mean it.
If you agree with me, go to Joe 3030, and help me in this fight.
Thank you very much.
We choose science over fiction.
We choose truth over facts.
Words that stun the nation, and I would argue I know shocked the world.
International leaders spoke about it.
You had people like Margaret Fat excuse me, you had p people like the the former chairman and leader of the party in in Germany.
You had Angela Merkel challenge these students.
We should challenge students in these schools to have advanced placement programs in these schools.
We have this notion that somehow if you're poor, you cannot do it.
Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.
Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids.
But think how we think about it.
I watch what happened when the kids from Parkland marched up to and I I I met with them and then they went off to up on the hill when I was vice president.
They went off the hill to go into those neighborhoods.
All those congressmen were like, No, I'm not here.
I'm not here.
I don't know, don't tell them I'm around.
They're afraid of it.
They should be exposed.
Yeah, those kids in Parkland came to see me when I was vice president.
Okay, that was 2018.
You were not vice president.
You know, poor kids are just as bright as white kids.
Whoopsie daisy.
Uh for the first time you have somebody that's clean and articulate and bright.
Man, that story book.
Um we choose truth over facts, he said.
He I mean, I really think it's scary the Margaret Thatcher reference.
I that blew me away.
Biden missed.
We had the shootings in El Paso and Dayton within hours of each other.
No, he referred to that as Michigan and Houston.
Uh something is really amiss here.
Uh, and it gets worse.
Anyway, joining us, um, John McLaughlin, polster strategist, uh, also supposedly retired pollster, but he's not.
He's full of crap.
Matt Tower is with us.
He can't stop, so we might as well we're just gonna keep him busy and keep him off the golf course.
Um I'm watching all of this, and now I think Matt, you'd think it's gonna be Biden, right?
Well, no, I I have to confess I thought it was going to be Harris because uh I still feel I still feel like one of these southern states like South Carolina of an African American candidate did some significant endorsements that could change the change things, but she damaged herself immensely in that last debate.
Um I also think her positions damage her greatly as well between you can't have private health insurance, the new Green Deal.
I mean, she has locked her in reparation.
She's locked herself in very deep into very controversial positions.
But you know, Sean, those are positions that virtually anyone who gets the nomination of this party is going to have to uh embrace and uh they haven't done it completely.
I mean, Biden is obviously viewed as quote the centrist in this race.
I think that montage just gave us a pretty good idea of where his candidacy is heading in the end.
But but they're going to be forced because as these more liberal candidates drop off the radar screen one by one, those votes have to go to someone, and I don't see them going to Joe Biden.
I see them going to another candidate, and most of these other candidates have drifted very, very well.
I I would say at this point, I I think Joe he doesn't have the energy for this, in my estimation.
Um and I just don't think uh he's uh the guy that was the vigorous campaigner of old and so I think you're right, and and that video clip that you just played of all those stumbles and gaffes, uh really highlights what's going on.
He I mean the president has labeled him as sleepy Joe, uh, but it's it's it's it's more telling than that because we had in fact we had on our on our website at McLaughlin Online dot com, and we just wrote a blog about it, Newsmax.com.
We kind of took a pause after the tragedies of last week's uh uh shootings.
But we had a j uh July 30th poll where Biden had fallen from 34 to 28.
Uh among liberals, he's only at 23, and Sanders is right behind him with 21 and and Warren is at twelve.
And you know how these polls can go bang bang bang, and as Matt's talking about, the African American votes was holding Biden up because he's at 47% with the African Americans, but Camel Harris is only at twelve, and Corey Booker's only at three.
So at some point, you know, like when you saw the the announcement when he made his announcement, when people saw that, and we focus grouped it with with younger people and and uh minority voters, they're like it's nothing ideological that he gets.
They they sit there and they say he's too old.
And the more people see him on the stump and the more gaps he makes, people are gonna look at him and say, This guy isn't up for the job, and in cards.
Here's the let me ask the question this way.
Do you think Joe Biden has lost his political fastball?
Or are you saying that he just he just is not up to the task of running for president, which takes an enormous commitment and an enormous amount of energy.
Absolutely.
He's lost his fastball.
And and and he may look he's never won in the first place.
This is the third time he's running for president.
And he was really, you know, second fiddle to Obama.
So so now you've got a guy who when the focus is on him, it's it's like he just doesn't have it anymore.
All right.
So think I'm crazy, don't think I'm crazy.
I'm looking now, and I think it may be coming down to Bernie and Elizabeth Warren.
Crazy Bernie and one one thousand twenty-four.
Well, that's entirely possible, Sean.
I mean, uh the you have a scenario, and I think John and I have sort of both said this in prior discussions, and that is that my expectation is that the ultimate nominee will be from the more left to center side of the party, which is so left now that it's hard to say what's left or center.
There is no center.
That having been said, if if Harris or Booker can't get the nomination, you remember what happened in 2008.
Barack Obama was polling very poorly all over the country.
Um at that time, Oprah Winfrey went to William Bryce Stadium in South Carolina and basically endorsed Barack Obama.
And the next week, his polling numbers went from being in third or fourth place in South Carolina to being 20 points ahead of Hillary Clinton.
Now that scenario could happen again, but you've got to have a candidate strong enough to get those types of endorsements.
Right now, neither Booker nor Harris appears to be strong enough at the moment.
If that doesn't happen, then the scenario of Warren or uh Bernie Sanders becomes more and more likely.
Uh now, does Kamala have a chance to come back or is she too locked in?
For whatever reason, I don't know what it is.
I don't see uh a warmth in her selling her ideas as like a um she's very adamant, and I noticed that even when she was answering this woman's question about, well, don't take away my health care.
I don't know, there's uh usually a certain warmth that politicians that are really good have, and it's one of those things you either have it or you don't have it.
Like oh by th I would argue Barack Obama absolutely had it.
Clinton had it, Bill Clinton, not Hillary.
Um, and I'm not sure sort of standoffish.
Does that sound like the I don't I think I think people want to think of their politicians as being warm people that you can have a beer with?
Right.
And that's why Elizabeth Warren wanted to have a beer, which she had announced.
And by the way, as Matt said, Elizabeth Warren is the one who's moving in the early states.
And come February, when you have the Iowa caucus where people need passion to come out on a freezing cold day, and then you're followed in eight days by New Hampshire.
Elizabeth Warren could be the surprise upset winner there, even over Bernie.
But then you come back to South Carolina, where two-thirds of the primary voters happen to be African Americans.
And the difference is Kennel Harris doesn't seem to be warming up to them.
They really don't know her.
They know Biden better, and they want to like somebody at a personal level.
And they were comfortable with Biden, but then they're saying, Oh my gosh, he may be too old.
And uh uh he's just not with it anymore.
So I I think you're gonna see surprises, and there's a lot more volatility in this field than than uh than most you know that we're seeing right now.
What do you think, Matt Towery?
I I agree with John.
I think that um I want to also say I don't find Warren to be particularly warm and fuzzy either.
She is the professorial type to the T. And uh the the one person who's been written off basically in a lot of ways, you didn't write him off the spinatio uh Sean but a lot have is Bernie Sanders.
Bernie Sanders has one thing that a lot of these other candidates don't have, and that is he has a prior organization.
And in some places like New Hampshire and other locations, that could be a great importance.
And of course, we know how primaries go, the primary season go.
It's a it's an ebb and flow in a matter of momentum.
The winner in Iowa isn't necessarily the winner.
South Carolina can be game changer.
Then you've got California coming up earlier this year.
Long way to go, but really a weak field right now, in my opinion.
All right, 800 941 Sean toll free telephone number.
We'll take a break.
We'll come back.
Our pollsters will be checking in with them from now until November 2020.
Matt Towery and John McLaughlin.
Matt thinks he's retired, but he really isn't.
He says it, but he's not.
He never never turns down an invitation, and he has nothing else to do all day.
We're we're like his lifeline to the to the outside world.
Because he he he says he quit, but he can't get out.
It's like the mob.
You know, just when you think you're drag you're right back in.
That's because he loves it.
All right, as we continue, Matt Towery and John McLaughlin are with us, 800-941 Sean, toll free uh telephone number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Well, I did see that um apparently uh Mayor de Blasio, I don't know if you guys saw the uh show he did with him.
Um apparently the biggest audience he ever had, and uh then he goes to Iowa and he only had 15 people show up.
And he keeps bragging.
My son helped prep me for Hannity, like prep view for you didn't how did you need Prep.
Mr. Mayor, you have armed guards.
Does every New Yorker have the right in their own home if they pass a background check and are mentally stable?
Do they have a right to own a firearm in their house?
Every New Yorker has a right to be safe.
Do they have a right to own a gun?
Every New Yorker has a right to be safe.
He didn't answer any questions.
That's not debate prep.
Does that help him out or hurt him?
He's gonna be the big silent breakthrough, I guess.
Comrade de Blasio.
Sean, I I think we you you gave him his last uh ten seconds of fame on the political uh landscape.
I didn't dislike the guy.
I mean, I just couldn't believe he wouldn't answer a question and he wants to be president.
Yeah, well, he's going nowhere uh very fast.
And probably I would be surprised.
Of course, he probably will have the financial backing and make it through.
I don't know that he'll make the debates, though.
I can't imagine that he'll make the next debate given the criteria.
He may or may not.
What about Beto Bozo, Robert Francis O'Rourke, John McLaughlin?
He's trying really hard.
And the frustration all these democrats have right now is that when you put the president's record in perspective, as we did in our last poll, and you ask if if uh you know if you agree that he's too valuable to lose, and there's so much more to be done.
The president is ahead 52 to 40.
And and the worst thing going on for the Democrats is they're calling him racist.
De Blasio is attacking him and they don't rock.
Absolutely blaming him for the these terrible tragedies.
I mean, these guys are desperate because the majority of Americans in the poll we've said they want to they want him to continue to fight for change 51 to 38.
The press does not want this story out there.
The president has a solid base.
All right, good to talk to you both, John McLaughlin.
All right, last question.
Predictions.
Who gets it?
John, quick.
Donald Trump, and I I think Elizabeth Warren, I think, gets to South Carolina, but there she gets ambushed because she doesn't get African American support.
Who gets the nomination?
You'd sound like De Blasio.
Oh, it's it's another just one of the losers.
It's either gonna be Warren or Harris.
Matt Towery.
I still say Harris.
She doesn't look friendly, but I think she could pull it off.
All right, we'll leave it there.
Bill O'Reilly, when we get back, then uh Kayleigh McAdani, Jeff Lord, and your calls 800 941 Sean.
As we continue, we got a great handity tonight at nine, straight ahead.
I thought that I thought I thought that's who you were.
Oh, from the right call me Fredo.
My name is Chris Cuomo.
I'm an anchor on CNN.
Fredo is from the Godfather.
He was our weak brother.
Isn't that your and they use it as an Italian aspersion?
Any of you Italian?
It's a f insult to your people.
It's an insult to your fing people.
It's like a young word for us.
So is that a cool thing?
You're a much more reasonable guy in person than you seem to be on television.
Yeah, but if you want to play, you want to f play.
That's something you want to say about what I do on television and say, but I'm gonna call me a few.
You're gonna have a big f problem.
What's the problem?
Don't insult me like that.
I didn't insult you.
You call me Fredo.
It's like I call you pump.
You like that?
You want it to be your nickname?
I didn't call you that.
I called me Fredo.
You know my name now.
You name was.
I think my name was Fredo.
Don't be a lie.
I want to be a man.
Stand up like a man.
Hey, then own what you said.
Listen, I have a problem with you, man.
You're gonna have a f problem.
Well, what are you gonna do about it?
Ruin you'll throw you down these stairs like fing punk.
Please do.
You don't want to sue?
Why don't you do it?
Take a swing then.
You want to call me Fredo take a fing swing?
Watch your fing hands.
I'm not gonna take a swing.
Take a swing.
Come on, boy.
So you want to call me?
Listen, I'm not anything.
You didn't have to do it.
You didn't know what you were doing when you thought it was your name.
I thought it was your name.
You didn't know what you were saying, right?
I thought it was his hey, look at all these cameras.
You're in for me for what?
You're in your influence.
As they say in my business, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you the whole load today.
You got the first sort of mainstream freaking American who is articulate and bright and clean, nice looking guy.
I mean, it's that's a story.
You're telling me we gotta go spend money to keep from going bankrupt.
You don't know my state.
My state was a slave state.
My state is a border state.
My state is the eighth largest black population in the country.
My state is anything from a Northeast liberal state.
You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.
I'm not joking.
His mom uh lived in uh in Long Island for ten years or so.
Uh God rest your soul.
And uh um, although she's wait, your mom's still your mom's still alive as your dad passed.
God bless her soul.
A man who will be the next president of the United States, Barack America.
Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America.
Let's get that straight.
And quite frankly, um, it might have been a better pick than me.
So let me say it again.
Thank you, uh Terry.
And thank you, uh Dr. Pepper, and thank you, Chancellor.
Uh Dr. Paper.
Romney wants to let the he said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let the big banks once again write their own rules.
Unchained Wall Street.
They're gonna put you all back in chains.
Think about what happened out in where Gabby Gifford, my good friend, was shot, mortally wounded.
Well, I say they're gonna start to see unemployment grow uh this spring.
Uh employment grow.
I'm sorry.
Number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word.
Jobs.
J-O-B-S jobs.
See, I went to the big guys for the money.
I was ready to prostitute myself in the man the manner in which I talk about it.
Chuck Graham, State Senator is here.
Chuck, stand up, Chuck, let me see you.
Oh, God love you.
What am I talking about?
I tell you what, you're making everybody else stand up, though, pal.
Now is the time to heed the timeless advice from Teddy Roosevelt.
Speak softly and carry a big stick.
End of quote.
I promise you.
The president has a big stick.
Union workers, the UAW took extredible cuts in their future and their and their pensions and the less to get GM working.
Now I'm like the token black with a token woman.
I was the token young person.
And guess what?
Mostly directed at quote, people of color.
You see it.
We got Jim Crow sneaking back in.
No, I mean it.
If you agree with me, go to Joe 3030 and help me in this fight.
Thank you very much.
We choose science over fiction.
We choose truth over facts.
Yeah, we true we choose truth over facts.
Science.
Oh, excuse me.
Sorry about that.
Uh sleepy, creepy, crazy Uncle Joe.
My favorite though is if you want to support me, 3030, which meant nothing.
It meant absolutely positively there was no place to go to find 3-0 330.
Imagine if Trump said that poor kids are just as bright as white kids, like uh Crazy Uncle Joe said.
And you know, oh when I was vice president during the Parkland shooting, I remember they came up.
No, they didn't come up.
You aren't the vice president.
Then, you know, at a state fair, we choose truth over facts.
He goes on, uh, you can't work at a Dunkin' Donuts or a 7-Eleven unless you have a slight Indian accent.
Crazy Uncle Joe.
And then, you know, he mentioned uh British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
I didn't, you know, she's been out of commission now for a long time.
She's long gone.
Uh and that would go back to the Reagan years.
And well, anyway, joining us now, Bill O'Reilly, all things Bill O'Reilly of Bill O'Reilly.com.
Earlier, we also played uh Chris Cuomo.
You know, I defended Chris on Twitter.
I'm gonna tell you why.
You and I have experienced this on steroids.
And look, he said today he should have acted a little better, but fine.
Uh, but when your nine-year-old daughter is there and your wife is in the room.
I'm sorry, I just it's unacceptable for people to you don't get a free shot just because you want to be a rude jerk.
Well, that puts me out of pretty much every discourse.
I I can't now participate in anything.
All right, nice uh Bill O'Reilly.com.
30330.
Do you know what that is?
What?
That's a secret code for Bill O'Reilly.com.
Is that true?
Did you get a free subscription?
We got like millions of people.
Uh well, we thought we were going to join.
No, you're in O'Reilly.com.
Um, let's say Cuomo.
So uh we both know Cuomo.
He worked at Fox News.
I don't think he admits to that.
But uh he got his first break there, really.
Right, he did.
And uh I don't have any anything against Cuomo.
He he does what his ideology tells him to do and what Jeff Zucker, his boss tells him to do.
Um my credo is always been you don't justify bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior.
And I heard a lot of that on the radio today.
Well, uh the guy who called Fredo and obviously was trying to insult him.
Uh you know, they've done a lot worse than Mitch McConnell and other people.
You don't do that.
That's fifth grade.
So yeah, you rightly pointed out that you and me and others have had to deal with um situations, some of them threatening.
At one point in my career at Fox News, I had to have security people live inside my house.
So did I. I've had people arrested on my property.
Same here.
One guy is in prison.
Same here.
Yeah, keep going.
We've had similar experiences, Bill.
No, I but listen, I don't talk about it a lot.
No, because that just makes it worse.
Yep.
So this is a serious thing.
It's it's not uh, you know, it's it's comical because of Fredo and and all that, but it's really somebody's gonna get hurt.
Now, when you step back and you say, Well, what what's the fuse here?
The fuse is hate Trump.
That's the the the fuse of all of this, whether it be conservative individuals confronting Cuomo or liberal individuals confronting you and me, it's all about Trump.
Because now in the country there is a license to hate.
All right.
So uh 007 had a license to kill, now you got a license to hate, and the media has gleefully, gleefully embraced that hatred.
So when you see it every day on CNN, where Cuomo works and every day on his program, then unstable or immature individuals are going to act that out in public.
The only thing I disagree with, if you look at the top fold New York Times yesterday, um anybody that talked about the millions and millions of millions of illegal immigrants and these big caravans, if they've ever used the word invasion, they tried to tie that to the actions of the psycho in El Paso, Texas.
But if we take that thinking to its c logical conclusion, well then that would mean that Bernie Sanders was responsible for the ball field scale shooting, and Elizabeth Warren is responsible for the Dayton shooting, and you know, anybody we have three on about three hundred overdoses from heroin in this country every week.
Ninety percent of that heroin crosses that southern border, or those that one percent of the criminal element uh that is involved in human trafficking, drug trafficking, or criminal enterprises, including murder in the U.S., if we don't have a border wall, then those that oppose it, they would be responsible for all those crimes.
I hold individuals responsible for what they do.
I said at the time, Bernie Sanders is not responsible for what happened when Steve Scalise got shot.
Steve Scalise agreed with that.
And I think this blame game and that words motivate people to be psychos because we have political disagreements, that is an intellectually lazy and dishonest argument to me.
All right.
But where does it all go back to, Hannity?
Where does the New York Times article go back to?
It all goes back to Trump.
That's true.
I agree with that.
Everything goes back.
Look, the hatred in this country now is as high as it's ever been since the Civil War.
That's a historical fact.
And what is driving that loathing is media that is so crazed, and that's the word, that Donald Trump is president, that all standards of behavior have collapsed.
So you mean that when MSDNC, the conspiracy network, uh literally had one of their anchors say that Trump is talking about exterminating Latinos and there are no repercussions for that kind of commentary.
No, there are no rules.
Comcast refuses to impose standards on its employees, and so does CNN.
That's ATT.
So what that's what you have.
Now, if you again step back and you say, if you have three thousand people organized in a Central American country marching toward the United States to try to violate our immigration laws and our border, what would you call that?
That's an invasion.
You can't say that according to those on the left.
But that's what it is.
Bill, I'm not disagreeing with you.
Oh, I know that.
So then you say to yourself, Well, the New York Times knows that.
They know it's an invasion because that's the definition of the word.
You see, but wait, I want to add one thing to this.
We, your grandparents, my grandparents came to this country from Ireland.
I actually have the documents from Ellis Island.
And we are not against immigration.
We're not against it at all.
We're against illegal immigration.
Now, I don't care if you come from Central America or wherever you come from.
I ask two things.
You do it well, three, you do it legally.
We have an opportunity to vet you to make sure that you're not part of a group that would bring harm to our citizens that are here.
We have to protect the American people.
And number three, you show means that you'll be able to provide for yourself while you're here.
If you can do that, uh add that to merit-based immigration, I'm all for immigration.
I don't I want people to be part of our family because that's how we got here.
And I think you agree with that.
I take it a step further.
I've always said that if I were a poor man in Mexico or Central America, and I had children to feed, I try to sneak across the border too.
Bill, we're I have Bill, I have said the same thing.
I have said this, I've been down there 14 times.
Yeah, I I would do that.
I do the same thing.
Okay.
However, if I got caught doing it, I would take my punishment like a man.
And I would say, yes, I did this.
I did this to feed my family, but I did violate the law, and I respect the law, so I'm gonna take my punishment.
Now that's the department.
But what the point should the punishment be?
We don't want to punish people that just want a better life.
That would be that would be the consequences.
Right.
Right.
And then come in legally.
I'm not gonna say that America is a fascist country and that I have a right to violate international law, as some of them do.
I'm not gonna do that.
I'm gonna say, okay, I did it, deport me, and I understand why you're doing it, and I still think America's a great country.
At least I could support my family here.
You know what country does that more than any other?
Mexico.
They do it to uh or they put the people from Central America in jail or immediately deport them.
Fascinating how Mexico tries to lecture us.
Um I just give a very simple answer on everything with Epstein.
I agree with the attorney general of the United States.
Uh I think this is very unusual, all that has happened here, and I think the victims of his crimes deserve justice, and I'm glad to hear that he's going to pursue the truth and get to the bottom of all this.
I think it's a disgrace that the federal prison system is so chaotic.
I mean, a guy like Whitey Bulger murdered, um, I have some sympathy for him, and I'm sure he's rotting in hell right now, as is Epstein.
But this is the federal prison system.
Come on.
You got to clean it up.
You have enough high-tech gizmos to supervise everybody in there, stop the gang, stop the narcotics in jail, stop it all.
Now, uh I can't disagree with anything you've said.
We are capable of better.
Unless you're given the death penalty, and in this case, he was being charged.
These were new charges.
Um, I thought he got a despicable sweetheart deal the last time, and but I do believe some of these victims deserved their day in court, and I think the Southern District had it.
And let's wait and see what uh the attorney general comes up with.
All right, Bill O'Reilly.com, thank you, sir.
All right, always a pleasure, Sean.
Thank you.
Appreciate you being one of those 800 941 Sean Tollfree telephone number, news roundup information overload is next.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
So meanwhile, the investigation of Epstein's death now falls into the hands of William Barr.
Donald Trump's consigliary, an attorney general, who refused to recuse himself on the Epstein case, despite his association with a law firm once involved with Epstein, whose father once hired Jeffrey Epstein as a teacher with neither experience nor degree.
And whose prime directive is to protect Donald Trump, no matter what.
In other words, we may never get the answers to how Jeffrey Epstein was allowed to die and deprive all those victims of their opportunity for justice.
I've had people call my show in the past who your Trump supporters who are white who have bluntly said he makes me feel better to be white again.
He makes me feel better about myself as a white person.
They've literally said that, and they're like, I'm not racist.
He makes me feel good about being a white person.
And that we are suffering.
We are a victim.
He speaks the victimhood language.
So for them, we look at it as pathetic.
They look at it as a as a champion.
Don't communicate it to them.
You beat them.
You beat them.
They are not a majority of this country.
The majority of white people in this country are not a majority of the country.
And all the people who are not fooled by this need to come together, go to the polls, go to the protests, do whatever you have to do.
You do not negotiate with these people.
You destroy them.
And by the way, uh the black man said beat them, meaning in a poll in an election.
So don't come for the black man.
He said beat them at all.
The words that stunned the nation, and I would argue, I know, shocked the world.
International leaders spoke about it.
You had people like Margaret That excuse me, you had people like the the former chairman and leader of the party in in Germany.
You had Angela Merkel.
Okay, Margaret Thatcher.
That was during Reagan's time, and she's been long gone.
She was the Iron Lady, an amazing woman, and uh you had this well, moment in history, really, when you had Pope John Paul and you had Margaret Thatcher and you had Ronald Reagan and the world changed for the better.
Um, but then you get the conspiracy theory TV.
That was, I guess, Joy Reed in that particular case about Barr.
Uh, the same network, yes, Roswell Rachel Maddow, the conspiracy theory uh network at MSDNC.
Uh oh, last week they were talking about at one of their anchors claiming Trump's talking about exterminating Latinos.
President Obama used the power of the presidency to try to pass comprehensive immigration reform with the Latino community, Latina leaders at the table.
You don't have a president, as you said, talking about exterminating Latinas.
Okay, nobody's talking about exterminating anybody, not even a little bit.
As a matter of fact, Griff Jenkins went down to the detention centers down south of our border.
Yeah, there are people there that have broken our laws.
Yes, there are people that are being detained.
Yes, the let's see, they got oh, beds and blankets and pillows and food and water and medicine and supplies and a soccer field at this particular facility, other recreational facilities, televisions, telephones, and doctors on hand in case anybody needs any medical attention.
And children are given diapers and baby formula and everything that they need.
Uh, so uh it's not as bad, in other words, in terms of, oh, we had what, 59 shootings in Chicago this weekend, and we're getting, you know, rec that didn't happen at the detention center.
It's not Auschwitz.
And then we got celebrities reacting to this whole Epstein thing with one bizarre conspiracy theory after another.
Willing Grace star Deborah Messing.
What a mess.
Uh, among the first to comment alleging Donald Trump made good on his 2016 assertion that he could shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters.
He finally killed someone on Fifth Avenue, she wrote.
And you got the uh lunatic Michael Moore.
I guess they think a country dumb enough to elect Trump is stupid enough to believe Epstein committed suicide or not.
Love that they did it on the traditional Friday night, early Saturday morning document dump time, when they knew no the fewest people will follow it.
I mean, Trump had him killed, he goes on to say.
And you got, of course, the ever so sane Rosie O'Donnell.
And she went on to say uh that it was well suspicious.
They can or of Jeffrey Epstein's worms have been opened.
They'll be crawling all over some very powerful people.
Have a nice vacation, Mr. President.
And it goes from there.
That is your media.
That is your mob.
That is what you will hear, watch, see now till election day, November 2020.
And assuming Trump wins again, and I think he's got a very good opportunity, because sleepy, creepy, crazy Uncle Joe's doesn't seem like he has it all together right now.
Um, and he seems to be the leader.
Uh, I think it's, you know, I think the American people will stick with uh record low unemployment since 1969.
Anyway, joining us uh 800-941 Sean, toll free telephone number.
We got Kayle McEnaney with us, National Press Secretary.
Trump 2020 campaign, Jeff Lord, author of the bestseller, Swamp Wars, Donald Trump and the new American populism versus the old order.
You know, I think a lot of it, Jeff, is rooted in, you know, this madness that we see is rooted in the fact that Donald Trump probably one of his biggest accomplishments is he has exposed just how ugly and deep this this swamp is.
This sewer really is, and it impacts a lot of different people, and I think a lot of people have been threatened by the fact that he doesn't play by their rules.
Yeah, absolutely.
And you know, Sean, I remember vividly sitting across from his desk there in Trump Tower in 2014 talking to him, and I asked him about this kind of thing.
And you know, and I have this on tape, and I mention it in the book.
He said, Oh, absolutely, I'll expose these people.
He says, I love exposing phonies.
And and these people, and he went on in detail about this.
And well, now we see that he meant it, and thank goodness for that.
And I I actually think Sean that these people in the media are turning out to be one of the best assets that he can have in this campaign because they're absolutely nuts.
They've lost all sense of reality.
And I think people see it.
I mean, for somebody like Nicole Wallace, who worked for George Bush, as you know, one of the most decent people on planet Earth, and they used to call him Hitler and a racist and all this stuff, for her to go the direction she's gone on MSNBC is just mind-blowing.
No, I don't really think it is mind-blowing.
I think it is a it's a financial calculation.
I mean, just like game change.
I mean, okay, where did game change come from?
Was it not her and Steve Schmidt?
Uh the character that plays her in the movie and in the book, uh, it it basically says she didn't vote for her own candidate.
Meanwhile, they're the ones that picked Sarah Palin.
Uh, and they blame Sarah Palin for it.
But uh, and uh look, I'm just telling you, there's something here that I don't think is ever gonna end.
This this is a real psychosis.
It's a mass meltdown.
It is collective, and it's every second minute hour of every day.
They're just gonna wake up with whatever the talking point of the day is, and they'll say it louder and and more often than the next person, and they think that they're getting noticed, but nobody's watching these people anymore.
What do you think, Caleb?
That's right.
Yeah, that's right, Sean.
And and Jeff hit the nail on the head.
You know, they're obsessed with President Trump because President Trump is exposing the swamp.
I mean, Jeff and I saw it over at CNN when no one wanted to talk about Hillary's emails.
There was one person with a very loud megaphone that was, in addition to you, Sean, and that was President Trump talking about the sledgehammers uh to her server, talking about uranium one, talking about all these scandals.
It's no wonder Hillary Clinton started with a fairly decent approval and favorability rating, and then Donald Trump exposed her, and that's what he's doing now, asking questions about Bill Clinton and the 26 flights that he took with Jeffrey Epstein.
President Trump exposes the swamp, and the swamp fights back.
But what they don't understand is President Trump punches back ten times harder, and he will prevail just as he did in 2016.
I think there's another thing going on here as well, and that is the American people have adapted to his iconoclastic and disruptive style.
And I think the American people like the results and they realize, yeah, he really is different.
Number one, he follows, you know, you you can make a list of everything he promised, and he goes down his list and he doesn't stop till he gets what he wants done, and the latest battle fight has been over the border wall, and he keeps winning and getting the money that people said he'd never get through executive uh emergency orders that he put forward.
He won that court case.
He is reallocating the monies from the Defense Department, and the wall's being built.
Yes, that's absolutely right.
He does keep his promises.
And you know, and I frankly think a lot of the American people love it.
I Sean, you probably saw this story.
Both of you probably saw this story on Fox uh today about uh the the amount what over sixty percent of his campaign donations were were from small donors, which is some sort of a record.
Well, I mean, that just tells you what's happening out here in America.
Real folks are sending their dollars in to Donald Trump because they love him to death, and they're definitely going to be there to re-elect him without question.
Let me ask you, Jeff, you had an article today backfired New York Times so yesterday, New York Times top fold had all of the conservatives using the word invasion and and that a lot of this influenced the the shooter in El Paso.
Now, beyond that, if that is how we're gonna judge the actions of some people based on what they read, well, the unibomber had, you know, Earth for the Unbalanced, Al Gore's book.
Uh then we can look at Elizabeth Warren was supported by the Dayton shooter, and the Scalese shooter was a Bernie supporter.
And if there's any, you know, death associated with not building a wall, well, by using their logic, we would blame all the people against the wall.
Um, but they really tried to make the case that it's Fox, it's talk radio, that we are responsible for what this idiot did in El Paso, Texas, which is a tired old blame game that they play, but they don't apply the same standards to themselves.
No, no, they don't.
And I went back to look.
I mean, I knew I would find these guns.
I found I mean, you know, even in cyberspace, there's a limit to what you can type.
There are all kinds of examples out there of the New York Times specifically, uh, going after corporations and corporate power and all this, which is exactly the kind of stuff that this nut was putting in his uh manifesto there in El Paso, both uh both on the uh uh corporations and also on the environment.
And they sound identical.
And I, you know, and I put some examples in here from from uh editorials or or columns from the New York Times when they do this.
Um this is the road they're gonna go down.
I mean, and it's ridiculous.
I mean, you didn't blame Bernie Sanders for the the No, just the opposite.
I said that's it's I said it's intellectually lazy and dishonest to do so.
Exactly, exactly.
And here they are trying to pull the stunt, but they conveniently, conveniently leave out that if that's the game, then they've left themselves out of it, and the New York Times itself is responsible for what's in that manifesto.
They don't want to go there.
But you know, i I I wonder at one point, I mean, CNN, Kaylee, they can't break a million viewers in any single hour of the day.
Um I can't I I don't even remember I mean it had to be like ninety-eight, two years into the Fox News channel.
I don't think, except for maybe a holiday weekend, that we've ever had numbers that low ever.
And if we did, I mean, I probably would just, you know, pack it in and and feel rejected and think that, okay, it's over.
Um but yet that's their business model, and they keep to it.
Yes, that's right.
And and and they're suffering in the ratings because of it.
I mean, I'll never forget going out to do a CNN hit.
I was out in Las Vegas, and I had a cameraman come up to me and say, Hey, you know, I I didn't vote for the president in 2016, but I'm compelled to give him a shot because I turn on CNN, I turn on MSNBC, and all I see is negativity and lies and distortion.
It's not negativity.
It is a rage, it is a hatred fueled by lies, conspiracy theories, never-ending hate.
It's every second of the day.
That's right.
And one would think that they would have a wake-up call when the American people spoke overwhelmingly on November 8th, 2016 and said we want Donald Trump, but instead, they doubled down on your hate.
You're exactly right.
It's hate, it's animosity, it's an absolute obsession with this president to no end, to the point of making up lies about exterminating Latinos and all of the clips you played at the top of the show.
All right, stay right there.
More with Kayleigh McIntyre, Jeff Floyd on the other side, and your call's coming up, 800-941 Sean, toll free telephone number.
All right, but as we continue, Jeff Lord, Cayley McInanya are with us.
All right, so if I'm right in this now, we don't have the charges of racism and you know, Republicans, racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, and dirty air, water killed children, grandma, grandpa eat dog food, And then we throw them over the cliff.
Usually that's just during the election season.
But now it's every day.
So from is this what we get, Kaylee McEnaney, from now until election day?
Oh, absolutely.
It's the same recycled playbook.
We will see it all play out again in 2020.
And you're right.
It's become a daily occurrence, but but that's just it.
It's backfiring.
I truly believe I go to these rallies across the country.
I'm already here in New Hampshire for the President's rally Thursday.
And I every time the Democrats who say, I have converted to President Trump.
I just met a black American female just two days ago who said I've converted.
I'm on your side.
So people see through it, rest assured.
Last word, Jeff Lord.
Yeah, they absolutely see through it.
And as I say, I I think the more they do this, the more it's going to help the president, which is going to drive them even crazier.
Yeah.
I think by the way, it'll be my great pleasure to drive them crazy every night.
And, you know, the holy grail collapsed on them.
I mean, Nadler is such a dope.
He thinks he can impeach, and he's in the middle of impeachment here proceedings.
He doesn't even know what he's talking about.
Um, but anyway, it's pretty funny and entertaining on the other hand.
Thank you both.
Uh we appreciate it.
When we come back, wide open telephones, toll-free.
It's 800-941 Sean if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
All right, 25 now till the top of the hour.
800-941 Sean, toll-free telephone number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Uh uh, I mentioned earlier about this incident in San Antonio where shots were fired into a San Antonio ICE office.
And I have you have to wonder Democrats gonna blame, let's see, people that called border agents and detention centers, you know, the ones with soccer fields like we showed you on on on Griff Jenkins report, uh, the ones with recreation centers,
the ones with beds and blankets and pillows, uh, the ones with doctors and and medical attention, the ones with baby formula diapers, telephones, TVs for all the people that are being detained, not the ones they called, oh, that's right, concentration camps.
Uh well, if we're gonna use liberal logic and police in San Antonio arresting a guy Tuesday morning in connection with the gunshots fired through the windows of the immigration's and custom enforcement office in the city.
Well, I wonder if we're gonna blame all of those people that have been on the other side of this issue, because that's the way they think.
I know you're not allowed to say that, right?
No, only oh, that's right.
You only use an issue if you can use it to bludgeon Trump.
You don't care about Russian interference if it's Hillary, it's only if you can talk about Trump Russia collusion.
Then you bludgeon Trump.
You don't care about obstruction and subpoenaed emails deleted and bleach bit and hammers and sim cards uh no, only if it is used to bludgeon Trump.
Do you really care about victims of sexual assault?
Well, it certainly seemed like there were an awful lot of I believers in the Kavanaugh case to bludgeon Trump, but no I believers with credible allegations of rape and violent sexual assault committed by and perpetrated by the Lieutenant Governor, the Democrat, and uh the Commonwealth of Virginia.
You see, it's it's oh, if we can blame somebody for a shooting, well, we're not gonna blame Bernie Sanders supporter in the Steve Scalee shooting.
We're not gonna blame Elizabeth Warren and the crazy socialist ideas that were advocated by the shooter in Dayton, and we'll only talk about the El Paso shooting and we'll use it to bludgeon Trump and Fox and talk radio.
You get the added bonus there if you can add in talk radio and vox.
Um, well, if that's the logical conclusion of the left, and that would mean who's responsible for the shots fired into the Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement ICE Office in San Antonio.
Well, based on their logic, it would be them.
But of course, we don't think that way.
Have taken more incoming than any single family president that I've ever seen in my lifetime.
And there's nothing that hasn't been said, including, oh, I think an awful lot about blowing up the White House.
And oh, when's the last time an actor killed the president?
Hmm, maybe we need the next one.
And it goes on from there.
Even go after, you know, a 10, 11, 12-year-old kid.
We'll go after him too.
We'll go after the wife and daughter.
Let's go after the whole family.
Uh 800, And never admit you're wrong.
Why would you ever admit you're wrong?
Why would you ever say that you're guilty of perpetrating lies, hoax, conspiracy theories, you know, peddling, you know, 24-7 propaganda, Russian disinformation.
Why would you ever admit you're wrong?
Just go on to the next issue.
The next lies.
The next talking point, the next conspiracy theory.
Russia, Russia, Russia, stormy, stormy, stormy, s whole less all s whole, racist, racist, racist.
And it is a manufactured crisis, crisis, crisis.
I think that covers pretty much the talking points as they go on.
Then they they move in a circle.
They go from one to the next to the next.
All right, let's get to our busy uh telephones here as we say hi to Donna is in Staten Island, New York.
What's up, Donna?
How are you?
Hi there, Sean.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you doing?
What's going on?
First of all, you know, it's been eight years that I've been calling your show.
Another anniversary.
Donna, it's like an anniversary for us.
Thank you.
It really is.
Well, listen, I mean this.
I don't say it enough.
I should say it more, but I I do know in my heart, and I am very appreciative, humbled, thankful that I I know this microphone is your microphone, and you lend it to me every day.
And the same with that camera in front of me every night, and I just want to do the best job I can possibly do.
And and honestly, with media the way it is today and social media, you know, you get more feedback and more info and more intel, and frankly, really clever, smart people out there that you know are contributing more and more every day.
We have everybody online is like their own journalists.
Well, I appreciate you letting me be on your show to express my ups and my concerns, I should say, because in the past there have been times where I was upset about something and you consoled me and you give us that conservative voice that we all need, and we really appreciate that you're consistently on our side with that.
We're really grateful for that.
I'm grateful for you.
So what else is on your mind today?
Well, I wanted to address, you know, Fredo Cuomo and his little rant.
And I wanted to say that as an American of Italian extraction, we've been called worst.
I don't think that that's an offensive term.
I don't think that was so terrible.
And I think that uh, I mean, what are we gonna do now?
Say that, you know, Pedroccini Alfredo is racist?
We can't do this.
This is getting out of control.
And I just think that he was more upset about being compared to of all the of all the Corle family.
Yeah, look, I mean, it is insulting to refer you refer if you say Fredo, who by the way, Michael Core, uh, I never wanted this for Michael.
I wanted this for Sonny, not Michael.
But of all that he's more upset about the fact that of all the Corleones, he was compared to the most dim witted of all of them.
That's what he's the most upset about.
Well, I'll say this.
I mean, I think it's meant to be no say it in your godfather voice.
It hurts my throat to do it, but I'll try it.
All right, ready?
I never wanted this life of my son.
But I will stand by the peace we made here tonight.
But I will say this.
If any harm shall ever come to my son, in any way, some accident befalls him.
I will take revenge on everybody in this room.
That's the best I can do.
That might be better than Clinton.
I want to say, sweet cheeks.
Isn't it good, Donna?
It's pretty good.
Especially for a Mick.
Nice job.
Yeah, not bad for an Irish guy.
You know, I do have sympathy for Chris in this sense.
I really do.
The guy was look, I've had this experience more than more times than I can mention.
I've been there, done that.
And um, you know, I'm kind of torn because I kind of like the fact, you know, is his nine-year-old daughter's there, his wife is in the room.
And for me, that's just a cheap shot.
And you know what?
Chris got in his grill a little bit.
And you know, it was a little street talk back and forth.
I'm not a I'm not offended.
You see, look, liberals act offended by anything Donald Trump says.
They're not offended.
I can't sit here and lie to you and tell you I was offended by Chris Cuomo, you know, a little street talk and you know, confronting this idiot that was insulting him in front of his family.
I'm not offended by it.
It wasn't an insult.
It was meant to be an insult.
Fredo's supposed to be the dumb brother that ends up getting killed by Michael, you gotta kill Fredo.
He's gotta go.
Yeah, you know, I it was meant to be an insult.
Like I said, that we've been called worse things over the years.
And everybody's been called worse things.
Okay, I'm very proud of my Italian heritage.
I'm you should be.
I don't find that's the insulting at all.
I just think that you know what?
The left is a bunch of bullies, and like with any bully, when you come back at them, they can't handle it.
And that's what I think it's.
Here's my rule.
Look, if if Chris was alone, I think he probably would have felt better.
But if he feels like getting in somebody's grill and confronting him, I just don't have a problem with it.
Um I've done things myself where I've I've gotten back in people's face.
Uh there was an instant in particular where my daughter and I were just sitting in a diner and a guy two guys do a hit and run, and I wasn't gonna take it.
And uh I actually walked them over and made them apologize to my daughter in a very persuasive way.
Um but you know, just people are rude.
It happens.
It um but anyway, I I get your point, Donna.
Thank you.
I don't you know, we all act like we're all outraged, like we've never heard these words before.
We're full of crap.
We've heard these words before.
It's not a shock.
You know, Chris should have probably handled it better, but big deal.
The guy was a jackass.
The guy was trying to embarrass him publicly in front of his family.
And the fact that Chris stood up for himself, I'll be honest, I admire it more than I more than anything else.
Why are you saying that?
Why can't he f you of all people?
You are not gonna take that if somebody did it to you.
You know, listen, I there's some rumors and they have not been confirmed.
So I'm gonna leave my final uh opinion for this until I find out.
But supposedly Well, well, if you if you think they're rumors, don't spread the rumor.
Then you'll be like conspiracy TV and fake news.
It's not a conspiracy, but I'm researching it.
But supposedly what really happened and why he was so angry is because he's got a house on that island on Shelter Island.
And so they came over, they doxxed the house, they scared his wife, they scared his kids.
That's incredibly if that if they did that, then he has an even more of a right to be angry.
I think he kind of took the anger and the frustration of that situation out on this dope.
And supposedly he was not there with family.
Yeah, I have that.
It's so funny, James.
Come over here for a minute.
Sweet baby James just handed me an article, and I'm literally reading the same article.
I'm not even kidding you.
So back in the day in January of 2010, Cuomo referred to himself as Fredo on the air with Curtis.
I heard that.
Which is hysterical.
But all that to say, supposedly I miss Curtis.
His yeah.
Supposedly his family Curtis is awesome.
Is uh not was not with him.
Okay at this moment.
Look, listen, I I'm not gonna go into the details.
I've been through a lot.
I don't bring it public, but there is a downside to being a public figure.
But if you listen, if I didn't want to be a public figure, I got in the wrong business.
And the reality is I dish it out, my opinions four hours a day, and I've some people hate what I say.
And they can't I I have been in environments where people hate me so much that they're twitching at the sight of me.
They can't stand who I am, what I represent, what a conservative is.
They've got this manufactured false image that has been reinforced by Democrats of what conservatives aren't, but they believe that it's true, and I have no problem standing up for myself.
And but my personal rule is leave the kids and leave the wife and kids out of it.
It's not it's It's you got a problem with me.
Take it up with me when I'm alone.
Not when I'm there with my young kids or whatever.
Yeah, exactly right.
I mean, at the end of the day, people, you gotta leave the kids out of it.
You gotta leave the family out of it.
It's like that idiot.
What's his name that only sold 14,000 books?
I mean, uh well, what's his name?
That was begging to be on the street.
Oh, Jimmy uh fake news acosta, that guy.
Why why don't we just call him what's his name?
What's his name?
Um we like that.
So you remembered, so he says that I didn't have the ability to confront him on a bus that we were on together.
Where was it?
In Helsinki or somewhere?
Yeah, we were in Finland and they they they put all the media people in the bus.
On one bus.
All right, everyone's got a ton of equipment and cameras and whatever.
Okay, I sit down.
Glamorous lift.
What did he expect me to do?
Find him, run to the back of the bus and call him a jackass.
Because that's pretty much what he is.
Um, I wouldn't do that.
Um, he had every opportunity if he wanted to talk to me.
I never saw him.
I don't even think I'd recognize him if I did see him.
I don't watch the network.
I know who he is.
I've I've heard his stupid asinine self-serving questions.
But if somebody doesn't like me and they come up to me, I'll I'll often say, Thanks for watching.
Thanks for listening.
Have a good day.
See you later.
Uh, but I'm not in the business.
If you want to hear my opinions, turn on my show.
If he wants me to go and do my show in front of him, he can pay me.
Maybe that's what he wanted.
He wanted me to do the show in front of him.
Like, well, you say these things when I'm not there.
Well, what do you want me to do?
Walk up to you in a crowded bus and start a fight with you.
And why didn't he come up to us?
He saw me.
I didn't see him.
Did you see him?
You saw him.
What's his name?
Oh boy.
All right, Hannity tonight, 9 Eastern.
Hope you'll join us.
Uh, Dan Bongino, Geraldo, Ari Fleischer, Charlie Hurt, Jeff Lord, John Solomon, Greg, and Sarah, Tom Fitton.
We got a lot of deep state investigating of the investigators.
