Not exactly an easy week for us here, but glad you're with us.
Toll-free is 800-941.
Sean, you want to be a part of the program?
Well, look, I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this program saying I tried to warn everybody, but it is frustrating.
I tried to warn everybody with the urgency that all the urgency I had in me that I could muster.
I literally saw what would happen coming, which is why after 10 years, I don't like writing books.
It's too much work and too hard.
I'm being honest.
But I felt the moment called for it because I sensed a moment, a pivotal tipping point moment for the country because of the radical agenda that now represents this new democratic, socialist, left-wing government.
And it is unfortunately everything I suspected and more.
How interesting the White House propaganda secretary, Jen Saki, by the way, media fawning over her.
The only one that has asked any tough questions is Peter Doocy.
The only one, good for him, who she calls Steve Doocy.
That would be his father.
He's Peter.
His name, Steve, is the guy in the morning.
Shouldn't be hard to figure out unless this forgetfulness thing is all throughout the Biden administration.
All these truths to be self-evident.
Oh, man.
And women are created equal in doubt by the thing.
You know, the thing.
We hold these truths to be self-evident.
All men and women created by the gold.
You know the thing.
The thing.
The thing.
God, the creator, everything.
Anyway, announcing, confirming that Joe Biden's support for designating the District of Columbia, D.C., as the 51st state while refusing to offer a timeline.
Oh, yeah, D.C. statehood was an issue that was raised in previous press briefings.
I don't know.
I don't remember this being a big issue in the campaign, except for the people that the left wants to cancel and silence and shut down and put a muzzle on.
Conservative Talk Radio and a couple of us at Fox and other people out there, you know, Dan Bongino and others.
Wasn't a whole lot of us, but we told you this was coming.
Now, what was that mean?
And maybe Puerto Rico's next.
We haven't gotten an opinion on that yet.
What does that mean?
Well, that would be two Democratic senators in perpetuity, pretty much, considering the DC, considering that D.C. is the swamp and where the bureaucracy is.
That's just a reality.
And that's the goal.
And that's the power play.
And that Schumer, everything is on the list.
And just as another side note, and I'm not going to do it, the I told you so stuff, but I tried to warn the country.
I know most of you understand this, and the 75 million of us certainly understood it.
Record, record-breaking numbers for any Republican candidate in history.
But now Democrats signaling that Mitch McConnell's effort to protect the legislative filibuster, they rejected that too.
Joe Manchin has said he wouldn't go along with it.
But then we have people like Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski and Ben Sass.
He can be an ass.
Anyway, he turned out to be the biggest disappointment in the world.
Anyway, saying they have little interest in bowing to his demands hours into the new Senate majority.
Wow, here we go.
The games begin.
McConnell publicly, privately pressed Chucky Schumer, the guy who said, you watch out.
You hear me, Kavanaugh?
You hear me, Gorsuch?
You'll regret it.
And it'll be held to what was the exact line I forgot.
Many Democrats arguing that, you know, well, okay, what that means is they just need the majority.
And that means their radical leftist agenda is going to now be thrown down our throat.
And basically, take it, like it, eat your broccoli, whether we do or not.
Now, there is something that should outrage every American.
How did this happen?
Thousands of National Guard troops forced to leave Capitol grounds.
And they're now sleeping in parking garages where it's freezing.
Anyway, 25,000 Guard troops been deployed in and around the Capitol, which, by the way, they should have been there on the 6th, considering CNN and the Washington Post are now telling us investigators believe that this was all pre-planned and orchestrated, which contradicts the impeachment article and the narrative of their own networks and their own papers and every Democrat, which we'll get to in a second.
This is sad.
25,000 troops.
Now, I want to protect the Capitol, our institutions, and every elected official.
I've been clear.
I've been clear on this going back to Obama and even before that.
We've got to protect it.
It's not a liberal Democrat.
It has nothing to do with Republican, Democrat, nothing.
It has to do with, you know, you cannot let crazy people, you know, literally, and that's why I want a 9-11 style commission report.
Get to the bottom of this.
How would we ever do this?
It's disgraceful to our National Guard.
We should be honored that after what happened in the Capitol, that they're there to protect us on the front lines.
And yet, you know, where's Nancy Pelosi?
Well, she's the one that worked with the sergeant at arms.
And how many warnings were there beforehand that they needed the National Guard called up and it was rejected?
We need to get to the bottom of it.
I mean, this is just wrong, should be corrected immediately.
And I don't even know why.
And I saw Joe Biden out there today, Jill, not Joe.
I don't know, handing out, I look like Halloween candy.
I'm not sure.
Cookies.
There were cookies?
I didn't see.
I couldn't see on the TV.
Anyway, by the way, she gave them cookies.
Oh, this is what Schumer said on the Supreme Court steps.
I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price.
You will notice that.
I want to tell you, Gorsuch.
I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price.
You won't know what hit you if you won't know what hit you're going to be higher price.
Imagine if any Republicans said that about Joe Biden.
Now, interesting side note, I saw Nolte over at Breitbart wrote an article.
The Geneva Conventions expressly forbid forcing prisoners of war from sleeping on concrete or in garages.
Every picture I've seen is our National Guard in garages asleep on concrete floors.
In other words, yes, the ever-weak, frail, cognitively struggling Joe, the commander-in-chief, has already treated his own troops this way.
He violates the Geneva Conventions.
Well, I didn't know that until I read that one.
Well, what are they going to do to rectify it?
And when?
Because I haven't heard anything that rectified this situation.
Texas Governor Abbott, New Hampshire Governor Sununu, ripping all of this and even the vetting of the National Guard.
And you know what they're going to do?
They're going to recall their troops back to their states, which they would, as I understand it, have the power to do.
And I'd like to see them do it.
The POTUS offered a solution because I saw multiple reports today that he said they can stay at the Trump Hotel instead of having to be in a basement on a concrete floor, sleeping on a concrete floor, freezing with no heat.
Unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
Incredible times we're living in here.
And this is going to be a rocky time.
And this is why I say you've got to engage.
The American people have got to engage and understand that you can be in touch with your elected officials, tell them how you feel, of course, peacefully.
Anyway, so, you know, it's really amazing.
The media attacking me already.
Hannity said it was a horrible week for Biden.
He's only been there a full day.
I'm like, well, what he's done in a full day are these are dramatic.
From the Keystone XL pipeline, I know Pete Buttujudge said, well, we want them to get good union paying jobs.
They had good union paying jobs.
And I don't believe their numbers either.
There are estimates out there.
State Department study commissioned during the Obama years when Joe was sleeping through as VP literally determined that the Keystone XL pipeline would create at least 3,200 construction jobs, 42,000 additional jobs, and generate $2 billion in wages.
Well, excuse me, an easy for Buttigudge, we want you to get another job.
Well, he just got a new job with his extensive background and experience as mayor of South Bend.
I particularly love people I know in South Bend.
Well, what about, you know, I thought liberals cared and had compassion and they were the leaders in health care.
Well, what about Biden freezing, you know, the executive order of Donald Trump on insulin and epinephrine that was in place until March.
Oh, well, we'll get rid of that.
This mask mandate, good question by Peter Doocy.
Well, why did he go to the Lincoln Memorial and he didn't have his mask on federal property?
That was his mandate.
Well, you can't even say that.
You know, what about the impact, billions of dollars in the economy by cutting back on energy production?
Now we'll be dependent on countries that hate our guts again.
That's stupid.
It's not good for national security.
Look at now at a time when we need American jobs and we're going to open up the borders and we're going to offer amnesty.
That's competition for jobs that'll lower wages for hardworking Americans.
Unbelievable.
You know, this whole thing on unity is a farce, too.
That's just not his legislative proposals.
It's all talk and BS.
He wouldn't have the courage to stand up to his radical base.
You know, by the way, even Rasmussen had a poll.
Double-digit margin of people oppose Biden's decision on the Keystone XL pipeline.
The American people get it.
What the president did, you know, with the Twitter handle, an account of the U.S. ambassador to Israel adding West Bank and Gaza.
Well, that's a message to Israel.
Well, the support you got from the Trump years now officially over.
We'll get to that too.
The economic impact is devastating.
It is the single dumbest economic decision that you could ever make in this economy that also gives a huge geopolitical economic advantage to the Chinese because as a matter of that accord, they're not held to the same standards as the U.S. Our carbon emissions have been going down in the Trump years.
This has been going through the roof.
They're the number one polluter.
But according to the Paris Climate Accords, they get to have the status of a developing nation.
Let me translate.
USA pays through the nose.
They pay nothing.
We're a bunch of suckers to go along with that.
And by the way, Trump, wow, Biden's goal of 100 million doses a day, we were hitting a million doses a day.
Sorry, that's not exactly the big breakthrough that you'd been promising, Joe.
That's not what you said you were going to do.
Unbelievable.
Now amnesty.
That's going to be great on the American taxpayers, energy dependence on the American taxpayers' radical agenda, environmental agenda, American taxpayers losing our competitiveness literally also becomes eventually a national security threat because we're now dependent on countries that hate us for the lifeblood of our economy.
No matter what they tell you, it's still oil, gas, and coal.
Because they haven't come up with an alternative that works yet.
Go find one.
I want to hear it.
But it's not windmills.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hale, and I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.

We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass.

I like the line of Senator Steve Daines, Montana, basically saying that killing the Keystone XL pipeline shows Biden's putting Saudi Arabia first, not American workers.
Looks like he cares more about workers in Saudi Arabia than workers in America.
By the way, over in Canada, they're really ticked off.
I mean, they're livid.
They're apoplectic.
They're furious.
Even some suggesting that Trudeau offer retaliation.
Can you blame them?
You know, it's incalculable between the Paris Accords and rejoining that, which that literally puts China first ahead of us, gives them a geopolitical advantage, and Russia first.
How is China characterized or categorized as a developing nation?
You know, then you look at, well, their own study in the Obama administration, $2 billion in wages, Keystone XL pipeline alone.
Then you add to that the direct jobs.
Now, the irony here, there are over 1,000 workers already on the job in spite of what some media mom people tell you.
They're mostly union jobs.
Then you've got all the even the 42,000 additional jobs that the Obama administration said in their State Department Commission study about Keystone.
The Association of Oil Pipelines complained.
The United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipe Fitters complained.
Hey, that union endorsed Joe in August after he promised to kill the pipeline in May.
That was pretty dumb, guys.
I don't think your rank and file should be too happy with you guys today.
Now, you add the Paris Accords, you add Keystone XL pipeline, then you add, oh, stop building the border wall.
Okay, projections for jobs are somewhat unclear.
One analysis in 2017 said if they'd continue construction of the wall, it could impact as many as 10,500 jobs.
It's incalculable.
And now that you're offering amnesty, now displaced workers from COVID and these three policies alone, now you've got wages that are going to be driven lower and lower and lower.
And that's why I said yesterday, this is a disastrous first week for Biden.
He just doesn't know it yet.
The mob hasn't figured it out yet.
And they won't figure it out ever because they're just running interference for all things Democratic, radical, socialist anyway, and are basically just propaganda wings for Biden and socialists.
We'll continue.

So down a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, for a moment of humor.
Chucky Schumer announced that the unconstitutional post-presidency impeachment shift show is moving forward.
He said it in a very unique way.
Listen closely.
There will be a trial, and when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John, Donald John Trump incited the erection insurrection against the United States.
Did I just hear this correctly, that Donald J. Trump incited the erection played again?
There will be a trial, and when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John, Donald John Trump incited the erection insurrection against the United States.
I'm sorry, I can't help but laugh.
Oh, you just can't make this.
I know it's serious.
These are tough times.
I know, I get it.
I'm paying attention.
Let me, I explained yesterday.
I'll give you a smaller synopsis today, not to rehash it, but we do have interesting things that are developing.
So what's happening now is I guess they're going to send the article over from the House to the Senate, walk it in somberly, another quickie snap impeachment that they hang on to.
And then the Senate has to deal with it.
And now I have my own views on it, but I'm just telling you what the reality is going to be and how this is all going to go down.
And so they'll receive it.
The president's attorneys, and I think this is actually the right thing to do.
They have time to build their case week or two and about February 10th-ish.
They'll take this up in the Senate.
Now, here's what's happening behind the scenes.
Democrats, they know it's a lost cause.
They know they're going to come out looking petty, that this is all vengeance.
Their base, of course, the crazy leftist, radical, socialist base will love it.
They have to appease that base.
That is who keeps them in power.
Nancy Pelosi is totally beholden.
When I say speaker and name only, I'm not kidding.
Chuck Schumer, even afraid of being outflanked on the left in New York for his Senate seat with Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, who's left open the possibility she would challenge Schumer.
And remember, all these politicians, and this goes for a lot of Republicans too.
Their number one goal is to keep and maintain power, and that's it.
They go there even with the best intentions, and I don't know what happens, but the swamp changes them.
They enjoy being called senator, congressman, woman, governor, whatever you happen to be, whatever elected position.
It's all crap.
It's all pretense.
It's all baloney.
It's meaningless.
But they like it.
They crave it.
They want to hang on to it.
And they wink and nod all these deals.
Anyway, Democrats, they see this as a loser now.
It's pretty much within their ranks.
They're like, why?
And it's for a lot of reasons.
You know, we now are setting a precedent here for the Senate to not dismiss this.
Democrats and Republicans just outright dismiss it so they don't put their seal of approval.
They don't validate the crap that happened in the House by the radicals over there, which is a snap impeachment, no hearings, nothing.
Let's go vote on impeachment in a week.
Okay, so them taking it up, they're lending their credibility and validating what will now be something, a new low standard for impeachment.
And I can pretty much assure you at some point in time that the power structure in D.C., there's always the ebb and the flow.
I watched it my entire career.
Started out in radio.
Reagan was president.
I've seen the Republican, Republican, Democrat eight years, Republican eight years, Democrat eight years, Republican four years, and here we go.
We have the weak, frail, cognitively struggling Joe.
So that's issue one.
The number of constitutional attorneys that are A against what the House did with their snap judgment is growing and it's getting louder and it makes them look bad.
The other thing is, in any trial, don't think that the Republicans are that stupid.
I'll remind them, and so there won't be any excuses.
They'll have the power and the ability to bring up all of the devices, and based on liberal Democrat definition, media mob definition of their inciting language, inciting to insurrection.
I won't play it all now.
Maxime Waters, I'll take Trump out tonight.
You listen up, you Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.
By the way, on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court, I'm going to tell you, Kavanaugh, tell you, Gorsuch, you have released a whirlwind.
You will pay the price.
You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful actions.
Donald Trump said, many of you will peacefully, patriotically march to the Capitol to let your voices be heard.
So the whole argument, again, you're now validating a snap impeachment.
That lowers the bar to a standard so low, it's just going to happen again and again and again.
And it's going to be never ending.
Okay, that's the way they want it.
Republicans need to play by their rules as they go forward.
And they're setting the precedent.
But then you got the whole constitutional argument.
This is an unconstitutional post-presidency impeachment.
I've gone through that chapter in verse on both my programs.
Now, the other big problem that is emerging is how the media is now beginning to report all of this.
I have the Washington Post in front of me.
Self-style militia members planned on storming the U.S. Capitol days in advance of the January 6th attack, according to court documents.
Fake news, CNN, investigators are pursuing signs the U.S. Capitol riot was planned.
Well, that takes the entire impeachment article that this was a spontaneous riot as a result, direct result of the words of Donald Trump at the rally on January 6th.
And frankly, we can now say that the Washington Post and fake news CNN, although they don't even listen on other parts of the day parts to their own news reporting.
I mean, you can't make this up.
I mean, I've got the Washington Post article right here in front of me.
Self-styled militia members from Virginia and Ohio and other states made plans to storm the U.S. Capitol days in advance of the January 6th attack and then communicated in real time as they breached the building on opposite sides.
Well, that sounds planned to me and talked about hunting lawmakers according to court documents.
Now, this is on top of everything we've already discovered, which is there were numerous intelligence reports that, in fact, there was planning in advance, hence the Capitol police chief that since resigned, frankly, was a hero here, begging for the guard to be called up in advance of this and being denied, you know, in total at the end of the day, six separate times.
Again, we need a 9-11-style commission report because this can't happen in our country.
We've got to protect our institutions and our elected officials.
That transcends any politics.
Anyway, it goes on to say: so they breached the building opposite sides, talked about hunting lawmakers according to the court documents filed.
While authorities have charged more than 100 individuals in the riot, details in the new allegations against three U.S. military veterans offer a disturbing look at what they allegedly said to one another before, and during, and after the attack.
Statements that indicate a degree of preparation and determination to rush deep into the halls and tunnels of Congress to make citizens' arrests on elected officials.
Well, Donald Trump didn't do that, had no knowledge of that.
Anyway, U.S. authorities charged an apparent leader of oath keepers, some extremist group I had not heard of, and they gave the guy's name in the attack, alleging that the Navy vet helped organize a ring of dozens of coordinated movements, storm the castle to disrupt the confirmation of President-elect Joe Biden's Electoral College victory.
We have about 30 or 40 of us.
We're sticking together, sticking to the plan, according to one person said while the breach was underway, according to court documents.
You are executing citizens' arrests.
This is all in the Washington Post.
Arrest the Assembly.
We have probable cause for acts of treason, election fraud.
Man replied according to audio recordings and communications.
We are in the main dome now.
We are rocking it.
They are throwing grenades.
They are friggin' shooting people with paintballs, but we are in here.
And woman believed, according to court documents.
And the arrests of these people, you know, go forward.
So literally, it undermines the entire case.
It contradicts their own narrative in their own newspaper and their own fake news channel.
I mean, it's sad.
You can't even make this up.
I'll go to fake news CNN.
Headline: investigators are pursuing signs the U.S. Capitol riot was planned.
Well, that contradicts the impeachment article that this was a spontaneous riot incited by Donald Trump, who said, many of you will peacefully, patriotically march to the Capitol so your voices will be heard from CNN.
Fake news.
Evidence uncovered so far, including weapons and tactics seen on surveillance videos, suggests a level of planning that has led investigators to believe the attack on the U.S. Capitol was not just a protest that spiraled out of control.
Federal law enforcement officials say.
Among the evidence the FBI is examining are indicators or indications that some participants at the Trump rally out by the Washington Monument left the event early, perhaps to retrieve items used on the assault in the Capitol.
And apparently there was intel that was completely and totally ignored.
I mean, the mob and the media is literally, they're contradicting everything that all of their fake news people are saying.
So Republicans, they're going to reject this on constitutional grounds.
They're not going to validate this ridiculous process, no due process in the House, this low bar.
You know, John Thune said in an interview, concerns about constitutionality.
They're going to use the constitutional path because that's the right path.
They're also going to use the, they're not going to validate a snap impeachment, especially when we haven't had an investigation of any kind into this.
And if it was pre-planned, that means that Donald Trump couldn't have incited a spontaneous insurrection, as they say, their favorite new word.
And if a president already left office, the Senate can't remove them under the Constitution.
Removal from the office is the primary purpose of impeachment.
So they can no longer exercise the power of the presidency.
He doesn't have those powers.
He can't exercise powers that he doesn't possess.
There was a great column by Greg Jarrett on this.
Another great one by Alan Dershowitz on this.
And, you know, Republican senators, this is not going to be hard.
I don't have a worry now, but, you know, they are Republicans.
Can't really put a lot of faith, hope, confidence in all of that.
By the way, by the way, Maxine Waters declares, you know, she's the one that said, I'm going to go and take Trump out tonight.
Was she inciting an insurrection?
Anyway, she's going to do everything she can, and she intended to continue investigating Trump.
We've not stopped.
We'll continue.
We have subpoenas we've issued recently.
We'll continue our work.
Here we go.
Never-ending.
I mean, scary times we're living in.
And all things that I told you were going to happen.
Political, pro-impeachment Republicans are already on the chopping block.
Liz Cheney already has a primary challenge.
I don't think that's going to work out for any Republican.
The real threat of a fracture to the Republican Party, I don't think.
Look, if you want, wait a minute, Pelosi to send impeachment now.
There's Nadler and Schiff.
It's going to be the Schiff show.
You can't even take it seriously on one level.
You have to take it seriously on another.
Anyway, so they're rejected on constitutional grounds.
And, you know, this is now going to blow up in Democrats' faces.
Where's Joe Biden?
Joe Biden, remember we always talked in the Clinton years, the sister soldier moment.
Joe will never stand up to his radical base.
Forget it.
They will drop him like a hot potato.
It's unbelievable.
What did Schumer say again today?
That it's definitely going to happen, right?
Let's play it.
There will be a trial, and when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John Trump incited the erection.
Insurrection against the United States.
This is not okay.
Did Donald John Trump incite the erection?
Okay.

Glad you're with us.
Toll-free.
Telephone numbers 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of this extravaganza.
I want to, as we now head into what will be the second hypocritical shift show, let's see, unconstitutional post-presidency impeachment trial, if you want to call it, hoax.
All sides now are getting very skittish.
Democrats are skittish.
Republicans now clearly are going to argue that it's not constitutional, can't happen, shouldn't happen, and nor do they want to give validity to the process of these radical Democrats.
And then on top of it, then we have other important issues here, like now we're beginning to know in the Washington Post and fake news, CNN, among others, are reporting, oh, a lot of this was planned.
And here's the court filing, which we talked about, that shows that there was a plan in place, which then renders the impeachment article completely moot and contradicts it.
That's why you don't have snap impeachments.
And then just juxtapose all of this madness and these flagrant, this flagrant hypocrisy and double standard to, well, in the final day of the administration of Donald Trump, he declassified and released documents.
He explained why he didn't do it earlier.
So we'll play the media-Russia mashup, and then we'll play the president explaining why, and then we'll talk to John Solomon and Greg Jarrett.
No, but at the right time, we will be absolutely releasing.
And I did the right thing by not doing it so far.
But you understand, they would call it something that it wouldn't be.
It's the only time you'd be transparent where they'd say bad things about transparency.
And there was the president rightly saying what his lawyers were telling him, but also pointing out something that shouldn't be in America because the truth is actually a real defense.
Anyway, Greg Jarrett is with us, the host of the podcast, The Brief, and also to New York Times bestseller, justthenews.com, editor-in-chief, author of the bestseller, Fallout, John Solomon.
John, let's see, you have more than anybody else been doing this deep dig dive on the declassified information that we got, and you've really gone through every single page of it now.
What have you found?
Listen, I'm pretty certain, Sean, that when we're done, these will be to civil liberty and judicial integrity, what the Pentagon Papers were to the Vietnam War.
There is extraordinary revelations that not even the members of Congress who investigated this over the last three, four years were aware of.
As I start to call members who had access to this information when it's classified, some of the things in here they didn't even know about.
And I think when you're done and you pull up 30,000 feet, what are the big issues that are going to make Americans upset?
It is clear that from the beginning, I mean, in July of 2016, the FBI and the CIA were aware, and President Obama was aware, that Hillary Clinton was in the process of carrying out a dirty trick to dirty up Donald Trump falsely on Russia because she was worried her email scandal was going to bite her in the fall election.
So that is one of the really clear things.
The second thing is it is abundantly clear the FBI knew much of the evidence they were submitting to the courts and to Congress was distorted, wrong, debunked.
And the third is we're going to see a lot more people expressing political bias than we saw.
We've already seen the smelly Walmart comments from Peter Strzok and Lisa Page's text messages.
And now we've learned from the declassification that we broke last week or this past week of Christopher Steele that his motive was he wanted to stop Trump from being president because it was bad for Great Britain.
He wanted to help Hillary couldn't get over her email scandal, distract the country.
You're going to find out other players in the process had made comments on official government documents, official text messages and official emails impugning President Trump or the possibility that Trump could be president all the way up to the top of the FBI.
So much higher than Strzok and Page.
These are remarkable.
You have political bias, bad evidence, and a political dirty trick, and the FBI helped carry it out for three years and sustained it.
It's a really remarkable discovery when all these documents are out.
Unbelievable.
And Greg Jarrett, obviously, you've been pouring over them as well.
You have two bestsellers related to this whole thing.
And boy, what a sad day when a president says we can't be transparent and show you real documents that exist that are exculpatory towards me because the witch hunters, remember, we had four separate investigations would use it against them and claim somehow that is obstruction when the truth is supposed to be a defense at America.
That's true.
And there's so many shocking revelations, Sean, in these long-classified FBI documents.
No wonder James Comey, Andrew McKay, Peter Strzok, and others never wanted you to see them.
And the current FBI director, Christopher Wray, fought like hell to prevent their release and cover it all up.
But Trump, in the end, at the end of his administration, would have none of it.
And he essentially told Ray and the FBI to stuff it.
You're not going to be able to deceive Americans about how your agency, the FBI, politicized law enforcement and weaponized your investigative powers to destroy a presidency.
And thankfully, you know, John Durham has certainly was the first to have access to these documents.
And the people I just named, in my judgment, should be behind bars.
But, you know, Durham has meticulously been gathering the incriminating evidence.
And I'm pretty confident that there will be indictments soon to follow.
Because these documents that John has identified, I've gone through.
I had a podcast that came out today on this.
I mean, they are such a smoking gun of criminality that I think it's inevitable that some people will be prosecuted for their abuse of power and engaged in criminal acts.
Let me go to fake news CNN in a Washington Post.
Now, this is why you don't have snap impeachments.
All of us agree.
And the mob and the Democrats' insurrection that the president's language incited what happened at the Capitol on the 6th.
The president's words contradict that.
Many of you will peacefully and patriotically march to the Capitol so your voices may be heard.
Now you have fake news CNN.
Evidence uncovered so far, including weapons and tactics seen on surveillance video, suggest a level of planning that has led investigators to believe that the attack on the Capitol was not just a protest that spiraled out of control, according to federal law enforcement officials.
And now, by the way, court documents.
And the FBI is examining indications that some participants at the Trump rally outside the White House left the event early to retrieve items to be used on the assault on the Capitol.
Now go to the Washington Post.
They talk about self-styled militia members from Virginia, Ohio, and other states.
They made plans to storm the Capitol days in advance of the January 6th attack and then communicated in real time as they breached the building on opposite sides and talked about hunting for lawmakers.
You know, my whole point, we need a 9-11 commission.
But putting that aside, authorities have charged more than 100 individuals and new allegations against three U.S. military veterans, et cetera, et cetera.
And apparently, there were plans made, a degree of preparation and determination to rush deep into the halls and tunnels of Congress to make citizens' arrests of elected officials.
Now, Greg Jarrett, from a legal perspective, now that you look at the article of impeachment, does that not contradict, can you even say that the reports on CNN and in the Washington Post basically are exculpatory to the charge that the president incited a spontaneous insurrection at the Capitol if it was all planned in advance?
That's right.
And the key word there is spontaneous and imminent.
That's the definition of incitement.
It has to be words that are very specific, that direct imminent acts of violence.
And here, first of all, the president's words didn't do that, as you point out, peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.
Not take action, but make your voices heard and do it peacefully.
But second of all, the president didn't incite something which was pre-planned.
That's an impossibility.
So that will simply be part of the defense.
And also the fact that, you know, a private citizen is not subject to an impeachment trial because under the Constitution, removal from office is the primary purpose of impeachment.
Trump is no longer in office, and therefore, this is invalid and unconstitutional.
Someone said, well, we want to prevent him from holding further office.
That under the Constitution is a secondary purpose that can only happen after the Senate decides on removal.
But if the president is no longer president, not subject to removal, that too is constitutionally invalid.
John Solomon, when you look at those reports and then you compare it to the impeachment article, the SNAP impeachment, boy, and then the commentary on these networks, they're like ignoring their own quote news reports.
Well, we've seen this show before, right?
One of the things we're going to see next week, Sean, in the documents I'm going to release is the FBI monitoring the most hysterical stories in the Washington Post, the New York Times, in CNN during Russia, and in real time saying they are way off.
They don't know anything.
They're wrong about everything on this.
They're making a mockery of journalism.
That's what Peter Strzok and Lisa Page and others and Andy McCabe were talking about behind the scenes.
When America gets to see how stupid the FBI thought the news media was in pushing the Russia collusion narrative, we ought to go back and say, well, they did it in Ukraine.
Remember, it was a bad phone call until it wasn't a bad phone call.
And they did it in the Capitol.
They immediately jumped to the conclusion that Trump incited this riot.
And now, as the evidence comes out that the riot was underway before his speech ended, the planning goes all the way back to late December, according to some of these court documents.
They're going to be embarrassed again.
The problem with impeachments lately, they've been relying on a bad news medium.
The news media are co-conspirators in these drive-by impeachments.
I mean, it's really unbelievable.
We really take the same standards applied by the Democrats, Craig Jarrett, and we apply it to the quid pro quo with zero experience.
Hunter, well, that's the first impeachment.
If you look at the rhetoric of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, Gorsuch Kavanaugh, we're coming to get you, and so on and so forth.
And Joe Biden, I want to take, I want to beat the hell out of him in the back of the gym.
That's the president.
Or Kamala Harris, you know, two weeks after Minneapolis and the police precinct burned to the ground and rioting going on.
It's not going to stop.
We're not going to stop.
They shouldn't stop.
We shouldn't stop.
And I can go on from there.
And then you've got, you know, so many Maxine Waters, you know, get in their faces.
I'll take Donald Trump out tonight.
Yeah, you know, Maxine Waters' inflammatory speech to people, encouraging them to essentially attack anybody who works for Donald Trump, is far closer to incitement than what the president said on the nation's mall on January 6th.
But there's a huge difference, Sean, between rousing passions in a speech before demonstrators and marchers, which all politicians do at some point in time, and inciting specific and imminent violence or destruction of property.
And so John is right.
This is a drive by impeachment.
I compared it to sort of instant rice.
You know, they did it without any evidence.
And the most egregious part of it all is that they abandoned a fundamental right to due process, which the House of Representatives created for all impeachments.
And they've simply thrown it out the window.
They abandon their own rules.
They're supposed to be.
But this is the new, all right, if this standard, wait till the Republicans will have their shot, too, at this insanity.
Last question.
John, I know you're following the story about how hours after Joe Biden gives his Unity, Unity, Unity inaugural address, they began a politically charged attack on who is a highly respected, newly appointed career intelligence official over fears he would be insufficiently loyal to Democratic partisans.
This guy actually worked for Adam Schiff.
And, you know, I know you know it's NSA placed general counsel Michael Ellis on administrative leave because they don't like this guy.
No specified claim of mishandling classified information seems totally manufactured from the sources I've talked to.
What are you hearing?
And he's a trained classification official as a military officer and civilian.
Well, it's kind of funny.
The tables have been turned.
Remember when President Trump was trying to get rid of people, the Democrats were angry and upset and calling it, you know, a witch hunt and an enemies list.
And the Democrats were, and the Republicans are saying, listen, everybody serves at the pleasure of the president.
The president gets to serve who he wants.
The tables have been flipped.
And now the Democrats are on.
They were the victims.
And the president, Biden has the right to remove some.
The truth of the matter is all presidents have the right to have who they want to serve.
The character assassination of Mike Wallace is not warranted by, if you don't want him to serve, just say, listen, I want my own guy there, but this is a career guy who had impeccable credentials.
He doesn't deserve the political torture that he's being put through.
What we do in Washington now is rather than just say the obvious, the president can have, we have to character destroy people to justify a president's action.
We ought to just go back and realize the president had the right to do this.
Let's stop ruining good people's reputations.
Well, we're going to stay on that story and get into it more deeply as time allows.
John Solomon, thank you.
Greg Jarrett, thank you.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hale.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass, you're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
I'm Ben Ferguson.
And I'm Ted Cruz.
Three times a week, we do our podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz.
Nationwide, we have millions of listeners.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we break down the news and bring you behind the scenes inside the White House, inside the Senate, inside the United States Supreme Court.
And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else.
We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
So down a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour.
You know, it's fascinating because Joe Biden's campaign was to hide in the basement with the help of the mob, big tech.
No vetting, no scrutiny whatsoever, and scare the living hell out of people about COVID.
We're giving out about a million doses a day.
And by the way, ongoing battle.
I said when my number comes, I would not ask to get ahead of the line.
So, you know, people just think the worst of people.
I don't know.
Anyway, I would take it.
Half my friends think I'm nuts.
The other half agree with me.
Linda thinks I'm nuts.
And I won't even tell you the rest of what she says.
But anyway, this was this whole thing.
We're going to give away, we're going to have a million doses a day, 100 million in 100 days.
Well, Trump's already been doing a million a day.
At Operation Warp Speed, we're even getting more vaccines online.
There's different versions of the vaccine.
But anyway, it's 198-page government plans, spare no effort to ensure Americans can get vaccinated quickly and equitably.
That's when he got asked the one question yesterday about it.
Give me a break.
Come on, man.
You a junkie?
Come on, man.
You a junkie.
Anyway, 100 million vaccines.
That's what, as Betsy McCoy said, you know, Trump's already doing.
She actually thinks you need 1.8 million people vaccinated a day to have herd immunity, but that's a separate issue.
But, well, it's a goal.
It's not etched in stone.
Well, I thought that was their main promise.
Now the latest talking point from liberals and the Democrats is, well, we're starting from scratch.
Listen to this.
The sun not even up on the first full day of the Biden administration, and already we have breaking news.
As President Biden wakes up for the first time in the White House, we're getting word from officials about the staggering lack of a coronavirus vaccination plan left behind.
This morning we are told they have to start from scratch.
One source says the Biden team are, quote, going to have to build everything from scratch.
One source telling CNN, as you said, there is nothing for us to rework.
We are going to have to build everything from scratch as we hear that Biden today has to start from scratch.
Biden sources tell CNN that the Trump administration essentially had no comprehensive distribution strategy at all.
So the Biden team says they will have to start from square one and quote from scratch.
So much worse than we could have imagined.
That is how the new White House coronavirus coordinator, Jeff Zainz, as Jeremy was pointing out, is describing what his team is inheriting from the Trump administration.
Sources are describing it to CNN this way, that there's not a single vaccine distribution plan to speak of from the Trump administration.
One Biden official telling CNN, quote, we are going to have to build everything from scratch.
So there was no plan.
Striking news this morning as sources tell CNN that President Biden's team will begin a vaccine rollout plan from scratch.
Sources say the coronavirus vaccine distribution plan that was inherited from the Trump administration to the Biden team was non-existent.
They're basically starting from scratch.
They're starting from scratch as it relates to vaccine distribution.
This is CNN.
Okay.
Anyway, Fauci addressed the talking point, which is, oh, starting from scratch, even though we now know liberal Fauci said this.
Another thing that I don't buy comes out of our reporting.
I have two new pieces of reporting.
The first one is that people within the administration say they're starting from scratch with a vaccine.
No, they're not.
You have an infrastructure out there that you're well aware of.
It has to be improved.
But they shouldn't get any benefit of a low bar here either.
You know, there's a lot going on already.
Are they going to scrap it or are they going to build on it and make it better?
No.
No, they're not going to scrap it, Chris.
They're going to, I mean, I was involved in the development of that stuff.
They were not going to scrap that.
There were a lot of good things that went that happened with the development of the vaccine program.
I mean, Operation Morph Speed had a lot of successes.
There were some missteps, but a lot of successes there.
No, we're going to be building on things.
We're not going to be destroying it, putting aside, saying it's useless.
We're going to take the good parts and amplify them, make them better, and we're going to go for the goal.
And that is to get as many people vaccinated as you possibly can, as expeditiously as you can.
That's the goal.
We're not going to trash anything.
Peter Ducey of Fox News asked, well, why didn't he follow his mask mandate when he was at the Lincoln Memorial?
Well, apparently, I guess he has bigger things to worry about.
And remember, the face mask rule is on federal property.
And they ditched it when they went to the Lincoln Memorial.
And when I asked the question about it, well, he was celebrating.
It was a historic day in our country.
All right, joining us now to respond to this and the other issues of the day, the Reverend C.L. Bryant.
He's the author of The Race for Freedom and Senior Fellow of Freedom Works.
And C.L., Reverend, welcome back to the program.
I hope you're keeping me in your prayers.
I hope you're keeping this great country in your prayers because we need a little of both.
Both of us need it.
Absolutely, Sean, and you're certainly in my prayers.
And our nation is always in our prayers, as well as our president, Donald John Trump, even though he is in exile at this time.
But this is what I say about that, Sean.
The lies, innuendos, and the hypocrisy that has come from Joe Biden will continue for 46 years, most of our lifetime, Sean.
Do you realize Joe Biden hasn't done anything notable on his own in 46 years in Washington, D.C., except right on the coattails of those who could use him?
And he's being used as a patsy, as a pawn now.
And the lies and the plagiarism and everything that he's been known for in the past should come to bear in our present here in America, now that he's been actually given the oath of office to sit behind the desk of the president.
That is one thing, Sean, that I believe that we as Americans must understand that we are on our way back to Obama land with Joe Biden and this crew of people that he has brought to Washington, D.C.
And Americans need to understand that they need to stand up and still be heard.
That's not inciting riots or anything of that nature.
And I'm certain to tell you that the president did not incite anything.
Well, I mean, we now know the Washington Times and even fake news here.
Oh, investigators are now looking deeply at the reality and the possibility that, remember, this was the whole impeachment deal, that the president's words incited this.
Well, no, it's actually turning quite differently.
And they published an article in the Washington Post on, I think it was Tuesday, the day before the inauguration.
Self-styled militia members planned on storming the Capitol days in advance of the January 6th attack, court documents say.
And it goes on to say self-styled militia members from Virginia, Ohio, and other states made plans to storm the Capitol.
Now, the president said that many of you will peacefully, patriotically march to the Capitol so your voices may be heard.
I'm not sure how that's inciting an insurrection, but does it not debunk the narrative within the impeachment articles, the Democrats, the mob in the media, that in fact the words incited the insurrection if it was well planned in advance.
And now even these fake news networks are reporting it themselves, although they still go along with the impeachment madness.
It absolutely debunks it, Sean.
And I have to say this to all of us who consider ourselves conservatives.
You and I have known each other a lot of years now, and I'm a conservative just like you are.
I happen to vote Republican.
But I'm saying this to the Republican Party that I've been loyal to for the last 25 years.
If, in fact, they do not stand with this president against this phony, fallacious impeachment charge, they are going to find themselves on a desert island by themselves.
The people who put them where they have been, and they squandered it.
They squandered everything that we have given to them as grassroots workers and grassroots people.
And if they do not stand with this president, we're going to see something in this country we hadn't seen in a long time, and that is the rise of something else replacing those do-nothing Republicans that are now in the minority.
I have no doubt, you know, if given a choice, conservatives, let's see, America first, the Trump agenda, which, by the way, is very simple as I've outlined all this week on this program, versus weak Republicanism, establishment Republicanism, they're not going to win over 80% of the Republican Party.
And that is a risk that they're never going to take.
That's why I'm not sitting here wringing my hands at all, worried about this phony impeachment.
The other thing is, my source is a very clear CL, is that Democrats are extremely skittish about this.
They know that it defies their unity meeting.
They also know that investigators are now saying they believe they found the organizers of this thing, and they're getting more information every day, nor do they want to validate the process, which was no process in the House of Representatives, so they don't want any part of it, and Republicans want no part of it either.
I do think there'll be an early motion to dismiss it.
It's got a shot, and if it doesn't pass, they'll spend two, three days, and this thing's over.
They'll acquit by the overwhelming majority of Republicans for sure.
Most likely, you're absolutely right because they see the common sense.
The Republicans need Donald John Trump.
And the Democrats, of course, are terrified.
They are absolutely terrified of Donald John Trump.
Why?
Because he did more legitimately for this nation in three and a half years than Joe Biden has done in your lifetime and my lifetime.
Sean, I have to reiterate, in our lifetime, I was a teenager when Joe Biden went to Washington.
You were probably about eight years old.
But let me tell you something.
In our lifetime, Sean, this man is the best example as to why we need term limit in Washington at this point in time.
Listen, I've always said it's a bad idea whose time, unfortunately, has come.
I would like.
But the problem is, is all these guys, all of a sudden, they become enthralled with being called senator, congressman, governor, you know, and they like it.
And then all of a sudden, they might go there with the purest of intentions.
And I've seen Ben Sass, the ass, is a perfect example.
I mean, we listened to this guy, Linda, right?
We promoted him.
We helped him.
And I mean, he just went off the rails and he, I think he forgot where he came from and, you know, forgot who he was.
And I think he likes, he's kind of enamored with his own power.
And he's not that remarkable in my mind.
Not remarkable at all.
But Sean, I'd like to put the focus as well.
What happened to Joe's little boy, Hunter?
What happens to him?
What happens to that collusion with all of the Chinese and all the what happens to that?
What happens to Joe?
I don't know if you heard the repair shop owner on my TV show last night.
We taped it just before the show.
Where do you hear the stuff tonight about videos on this laptop?
Nobody else has talked about it.
And Sean, I saw part one.
I can't wait to see part two.
Telling all of America, tune in to Hannity tonight and let's see what he's talking about here.
And you have stood on the front line.
You've never wavered.
And I certainly do appreciate your friendship.
Listen, CL, you're a special guy.
You love this country.
You instill good values.
You remind us that, you know, the important things of life are spiritual side.
And, you know, I know a lot of people have been really struggling the last year.
And I think guys like you that help people in troubled times are just a voice in the wilderness and much needed.
Thank you, sir.
God bless you, man.
Talk to you.
You too.
Appreciate it.
Thank you, Reverend.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hammond.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.

We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.

So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, as we roll along 800-941, Sean toll-free telephone number.
You know, if you missed it earlier.
Now, what did I tell you before this election?
Everything's on the table, Chucky Schumer said, right?
What did I say?
What did that mean?
We're going to end the legislative filibuster.
Well, Chuck Schumer wouldn't make a deal to stop that yesterday.
Okay.
Check.
They're going to move forward with that.
What did I say?
D.C., maybe Puerto Rico as well, statehood.
Anyone in the mob, the media, ever asked Biden about these issues?
No, because they were protecting him.
He was in the media mob, big tech, liberal Democrat protection program.
And they all went out there.
They let him hide in the basement, didn't have to answer any questions.
And now we have the Biden camp, White House press secretary Jen Saki confirming that President Biden does support statehood for the District of Columbia as the 51st state while refusing to offer a timeline.
D.C. statehood was an issue that was raised in previous press briefings.
The president has supported D.C. statehood in the past.
That certainly remains his position.
But I don't have any information on a timeline.
Well, what does that mean?
Well, if you add D.C., you got two more Democratic Senate seats.
If you add Puerto Rico, they think you get two more Democratic seats in both places in perpetuity, as far as the eye can see.
What would that mean?
That would be a permanent majority for Democrats, at least in their minds.
Now, these are the things we warned you about.
How far does it go from here?
In other words, do we get to the point where, well, maybe we'll end the Electoral College and let New York and California and New Jersey and Illinois decide every election.
Is that, well, Chuck says everything's on the table.
Told you, I tried my hardest to warn everybody.
Now, what can the Republicans do about it?
I don't know at this time.
We'll continue.
All right, news roundup, information overload hour.
You know, I got criticized for saying yesterday it's been a disastrous week.
Disasters.
Well, I guess good if you're a liberal Democrat and a radical socialist.
But I've been also going looking at the impact of these insane policies and what it means for we, the American people.
And that's where things, that's where things kind of go off the rails for Joe Biden because it's not going to end well for him in the end in terms of once the American people understand the depth of this radical agenda and the impact directly on them, then I think the country is going to say, are you kidding me?
By the way, there is a Rasmussen poll, double-digit margin.
Voters oppose Biden's decision blocking the Keystone XL pipeline.
Voters were a little shocked to see the change of names immediately to the ambassador, U.S. Ambassador to Israel, on the Twitter account.
In other words, to include the West Bank and Gaza.
That was a message to Israel on day one.
The devastating economic impact and jobs impact on the country by rejoining the insane Paris Climate Accord, which, by the way, countries like China don't have to abide by.
And then, of course, the disastrous rollout of what is, you know, I think a big deal of the vaccine.
Then, of course, open borders as, yes, we now have another caravan coming and the plan to stop building the wall and a path towards legalization.
They're going to legalize those illegal immigrants.
Never mind the Cesar Chavez bus taking over for Winston Churchill's.
It's a side note of nothing.
So, you know, if you look at this and you listen to the media and the mob and what do you mean, Hannity, this has been a great week.
That's because you agree with this insanity.
But I'm going to tell you something.
All of these moves, Paris Agreement, Keystone, Pipeline, Open Borders, Amnesty, all of it together, I am telling you right now, is going to end up in Americans losing jobs, lower wages, and it's going to be a huge financial burden in terms of the travel, in terms of the Paris Accords.
We're talking about billions of dollars.
I mean, this is a disaster.
And I just can't believe this is where they're taking the country.
Now, we have Biden and Kamala wanting to end fracking.
If you look at all the jobs that ultimately will be lost, it's a massive number.
I never said I oppose fracking.
You said it on tape.
I did.
Show the tape.
Put it on your website.
Put it on.
Put it on the website.
Would there be any place for fossil fuels, including coal and fracking, in a Biden administration?
No, we would work it out.
We would make sure it's eliminated.
I guarantee you, we're going to end fossil fuel.
No more, no new fracking.
I gradually move away from fracking.
And I think it's critically important on day one that we end any fossil fuel leases on public lands.
What about, say, stopping fracking and stopping pipeline infrastructure?
True pipeline, exactly.
They want to do the same thing I want to do.
They want to phase out fossil fuels and we're going to phase out fossil fuels.
There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.
All right, joining us now, Daniel Turner, founder, executive director of Power the Future, outlining this big, massive mistake, getting away from energy independence and the Keystone XL pipeline.
You know, okay, these radical green groups and the Paris Accords.
Now, this article about me just takes me to test.
Hannity says it's a disaster week.
What is he talking about?
I'm like, yeah, if I worked for the Keystone XL pipeline, I think I'd be a little ticked off.
Anyway, Daniel, thank you for being with us.
Thank you for having me on, Sean.
And also with us, Steve Moore, economist, author of Trump Anonymous, Inside the America First Plan to Revive Our Economy.
Daniel, you said something that really fascinated.
You said what's fascinating about the Keystone is how unfascinating the project actually is.
And you talked about its marvel of engineering, an extraordinary accomplishment of human mechanical skill, 1,200-mile pipeline from Alberta, Canada to the Gulf Coast, carrying crude to be refined, an incredible infrastructure project that created a lot of jobs.
Now, Biden's claiming, oh, there's going to be very few jobs that are lost here.
And Pete Buttigieg said, no, these jobs, we want them replaced with good union jobs.
It's easy for him to say he just got a new job.
Yeah, it is remarkable to see the lack of empathy that Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg have showed for the thousands of people who have lost their jobs overnight.
There are married couples right now who are figuring out how to move forward because they have lost their sole source of employment.
And they're in these red states, states like Nebraska and the Dakotas, states that Joe Biden, quite frankly, doesn't care about and would only visit if he needed their electoral votes.
Mayor Pete said the priority is fulfilling the president's promise on climate change.
There is a plan for the Guatemalan immigrants who are crossing the border.
There is a plan for everybody.
But there is no plan for these thousands of American energy workers who are losing their jobs.
They are just told to go pound sand.
And that is absolutely immoral that this president is doing that to these people.
And by the way, the estimates are, you know, thousands of temporary jobs, additional jobs directly, indirect jobs associated with it, about $2 billion in wages we're talking about, Stephen Moore.
I even noticed the Canadians, there was a Bloomberg piece out today, that the leader of Canada's oil heartland calling this decision to cancel Keystone XL an insult.
They're urging the prime minister, Trudeau, to consider retaliation in this case.
And anyway, their premier, Jason Kennedy, said in a press conference, it's an insult and said Trudeau should demand the U.S. administration sit down and discuss the project in the context of environmental climate security policy.
And if that fails, Canada should be willing to impose meaningful, punitive measures against its biggest trading partner.
Well, we can see they're reasserting their muscle against America.
Well, you know, Sean, I was struck by that quote from the Biden administration saying, what we want is good paying union jobs.
That's exactly what these are.
You know, I've spent a lot of time in the oil patch in the United States, in the Dakotas, and in Texas and even up in Canada.
And these are not $15 an hour jobs.
These aren't $15 an hour jobs.
These are jobs that pay for the truckers, the pipe fitters, the construction workers.
They're hired at jobs that pay many times over $100,000 a year.
So these are exactly the kind of good-paying union jobs that Biden promised that he would create rather than take away.
By the way, shame on the unions actually endorse Biden.
Did you know that, Sean?
I mean, how crazy is that?
How crazy is that?
I mean, the cavalier, basically, it was Buddha Judge and Biden to workers on Keystone XL dropped dead.
I mean, they just don't care.
And when you think about our relationship with Canada, they pretty much told Canada to shove it.
And that's going to impact their economy.
But he's giving in to the environmental extremists, as we all said he would.
What is the impact of the climate accords, the Paris Climate Accord, which actually says that China is a developing nation?
They don't put the same restrictions on China, the biggest polluter.
Well, it is remarkable that China was exempt from this.
And what the United States has done under this administration is surpassed the goals of the climate accords without being in it under the Trump administration.
So now that we are joining it for no apparent reason, we're also on the hook now for billions of dollars that will go to a UN climate slush fund.
Who is spending this money?
What are their projects?
What oversight is there?
Do I trust the UN with billions of taxpayer American dollars?
So again, it's this globalist cabal that punishes America will impose false sanctions and false mandates on America when we've achieved the spirit of the accords, which is lower our emissions.
We did that under President Trump, and that was never celebrated by the environmental left.
Go ahead, Steve.
So I was just going to make another point.
You know, you talk about Canada being a loser here.
Clearly, they are, because Canada and the United States and the United States have more oil and gas and coal than just about any other region of the world.
We have more than Saudi Arabia.
We have more of this than Russia and all these other countries.
But the big winner here from both the United States re-entering the worst treaty in the history of the United States, the Paris Climate Accord, and discontinuing these infrastructure projects like the pipelines is right now, I mentioned this on your show, I think, last month.
Right now, as we're sitting here, there's a $12 billion pipeline that's being built from Siberia and Russia to China.
And so, I mean, what's wrong with this picture, Sean?
So Russia and China, our two biggest enemies, are building a pipeline so they can get all the energy that China needs at low prices.
And we can't build pipelines here in the United States.
Meanwhile, while they're doing pipelines, the other thing people have to realize is China right now is building, we don't know exactly, but somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 to 200 new coal plants.
So every time we shut down a coal plant in the United States, China builds 10 of them.
How is that reducing climate change?
I mean, that's such a great point.
And by the way, haven't our carbon emissions levels gone down in recent years?
Way down, way down, way down.
And many of the countries that are in the terrorist climate, none of them, by the way, of the 30 major countries that have been in that climate change agreement, 28 of them haven't reached their targets.
Yeah.
And you were going to say, Daniel?
The remarkable thing about what President Trump achieved and got very little credit for on the global community or especially in the environmental community is lowering our emissions while also making America the world's largest oil and gas producer.
We did not discover any new oil fields.
We did not invent any new technology.
What President Trump did is he allowed the free markets to do what it does best.
That means that potential was always in America for every single president going back in history.
All that potential of America was there, and they wouldn't let it come to the market.
President Trump unleashed the power of the flea market, and it does what it always does, which is produce more for less while improving the status of the average person.
I just, I found the statement of Buddha Judge in particular at this hearing with Ted Cruz.
I mean, literally, I'm like, oh, my gosh, you really don't care.
I mean, he put, look, if you're working in, we know that there are how many millions of people that have been displaced in terms of jobs as a result of rigid government shutdowns, especially in places like New York and California and elsewhere as a result of COVID-19.
Okay, now we're going to have illegal immigrants coming in and they're going to be made legal and they'll be their path to legalization.
No more building the border wall, putting handcuffs on ice.
They can't even do their job anymore and enforce the laws of the land as per Biden.
So we're going to have more competition for the jobs that do become available as hopefully one day we get to the point where the country opens up completely, maybe late spring and early summer.
Steve Moore.
Well, look, there is one constant theme of every single person who has been appointed to a high-level job in the Biden administration.
And you know what that is, Sean.
They are climate change fanatics.
They care more about climate change than the health of the American citizens and jobs and COVID.
It's all climate change.
So this, I am going to predict, Sean, this is the tip of the iceberg.
You're going to see multiple more kinds of regulations like this on the American economy.
And Dad is right.
These have very negative effects on America's ability to produce energy.
And the big winners are our biggest enemies.
And one other thing.
Russia and China in particular and countries that hate us in the Middle East, real quick.
Yeah.
Look, people say, oh, we're not going to need oil anymore.
We're going to use electric cars.
Okay, fine.
Maybe 20 years from now, everybody's going to have a Tesla.
How are you going to charge the batteries without natural gas without electricity, which comes from natural gas and coal?
I mean, these people don't even think of this stuff out.
Natural gas reduces pollution.
It doesn't increase pollution.
That's why we need the pipelines.
Well, and everybody better get ready.
Your heating bills are going to soar.
Your gas prices are going to soar.
It's inevitable.
It's a simple supply-demand crisscross dictating price.
And we'll be artificially reducing the supply.
And that means you pay more, which is exactly what they want, which is sad.
All right.
Steve Moore, thank you.
Daniel Turner, thank you.
All right, Martin in Florida.
We have one minute this segment.
Can you do it in a minute, Martin?
Sean, so great to speak with you.
You are a great American, as CL alluded to.
I'll get right to the point.
There are 75 million great Americans that voted for President Trump, not because they idolize a man, because they were voting for the American ideal that he represented.
He's a great president because he not only stood up for the American way, he led the way.
He got things done.
And imagine what he could have gotten done with the support of those on the other side of the aisle.
It's a disgrace.
And my question to you is, what sort of recourse does President Trump, former President Trump at this time, have in the event that they botch this impeachment?
Does he have legal recourse to really stick it in their faces on behalf of everybody that they're doing?
I think there's certainly listen, there are enough constitutional scholars that have been very outspoken about the unconstitutionality of it.
But we don't want to get there because as we learned, I'll quote the Chief Justice in Wisconsin, that if you continue to be, if the other four justices on this court, he was three leading the dissent, and don't deal with these issues.
It's going to keep happening.
It's not going to go away.
And you can't have judicial activism by inaction.
This is a significant, serious constitutional challenge.
Republicans in the Senate, they need to do their job so we don't have to go to your plan.
But you raised great points, Martin.
And you did it in a minute.
You're unbelievable.
Quick break, right back, and we'll continue on the other side.
Your call's coming up.
We want to make sure that all those votes are counted because at the end of the day, we know that we're all counting.
Al Gore will be president of the United States of America.
Since Election Day, we have had a single fundamental goal, to ensure a complete count of all of the votes cast in Florida.
What is at stake is more important than who wins the presidency.
What is at stake is the integrity of our democracy.
All we are asking for is that the rule of law be respected and upheld and that all the votes be counted in a way that is consistent with Florida law.
There is no question or very little question that Al Gore won the votes cast in the state of Florida.
The question is, will he win the votes counted?
Do you think Donald Trump's win was legitimate?
Protect the lives of the people.
Is the election legit?
The election is by this intrusion.
I know Sidius.
President-elect as a legitimate president.
You do not consider him a legitimate president.
Does he think that Democrats should put this away, this whole idea of legitimate, illegitimate?
President's not going to get in the middle of this right now.
I get it, but you didn't answer the question.
Is Donald Trump legitimate?
I think there's a cloud of questions around what happened.
There could be clouds of questions, and we disagree on things.
But honestly, I mean, yes or no?
Is he the legitimately elected president of the United States when he raises his hand?
We're counting on our law enforcement community to get to the bottom of these questions.
He also won't.
Do you agree with John Lewis?
Do you agree that Donald Trump is, in effect, not a legitimate president?
I think that there's no question that the process that elected him was not legitimate.
Although legally elected, is not legitimate for all the reasons.
I agree, Congressman, that Donald Trump will legitimate president.
Legitimacy question.
The legitimacy questions come up.
You say he will be president of the United States, but you're at least reluctant to say he will be the legitimate president of the United States.
Is that right?
He is going to be president.
But isn't it more difficult now to work together when you've said flatly he's not even a legitimate president?
I don't recognize his legitimacy.
John Lewis said that.
John Lewis said that.
You believe he's a legitimate president.
Well, he was elected.
On the fact that Donald Trump can't stand he's not a legitimate president.
He won fewer votes than Hillary Trump.
I can't bear to tell him the truth.
Now, the delegitimization of the presidency is taking hold within the country.
Do you think it was a legitimate election?
I think that there are lots of questions about its legitimacy.
The 2016 election wasn't legitimate.
What does it mean to say it's not legitimate?
It was not a legitimate election.
You think it was a legitimate election.
Time here, Donna.
My question to you is, was it a legitimate election?
Does it count?
My personal view is that it was not a legitimate election.
So it doesn't count?
There you go.
You hear it again and again and again, but you would think this is only the first time in the history of this country that people had a problem with election results.
It's not sad.
You know, with the United States of America, do we have the ability to have a free, fair election that we can have integrity and confidence in, the results?
Yeah, of course we do.
We send people to the moon and we bring them home.
We do other amazing things as well.
Can a system, such a system, be designed?
Yeah, it can.
But the hypocrisy is what this is all about.
It is breathtaking.
And this is, you know, then you get to the rhetoric of the left, the rhetoric of Maxime Waters, the rhetoric of Chuck Schumer and Kamala Harris.
I'm going to take Trump out tonight.
The rhetoric of so many Democrats over the years.
I'm going to take them behind the gym and beat the hell out of them.
What if any Republican ever said that about Joe?
It wouldn't work very well.
Wouldn't go over.
You know, when we're going to fight, when they're down, we kick them.
We kick them.
But they go low, we kick them.
Wow.
Pretty amazing.
Got Ted Liu.
He promised and threatened widespread civil unrest if Trump fired Mueller.
Look, if the president does go ahead and fire Robert Mueller, we would have people take to the streets.
I believe there would be widespread civil unrest because Americans understand that the rule of law is paramount.
You think there would be civil unrest?
Widespread civil unrest?
I do.
Yeah, widespread civil.
I do.
I do.
Corey Booker, get up in the face of some Congress people.
Maximoty, get in their face.
They're not wanted anywhere anytime.
You create a crowd.
Well, you can't be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for.
Hillary Clinton.
Joaquin Castro.
2019, Trump considering declaring a national emergency over the government shutdown said Democrats would fight him in the streets.
And it goes on.
You know, when you're in the arena, Nancy Pelosi said you have to be ready to take a punch and throw a punch.
John Tester.
In order to take on Trump, you have to punch him in the face, squad member Presley.
This is as much about public outcry, organizing, mobilizing, applying pressure, making phone calls, emails, showing up.
You know, there needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there's unrest in our lives.
Wow.
Pretty amazing list, isn't it?
I don't hear Mitch McConnell.
Never heard him at the time, you know, talking about that language provoking anything.
And look at Kamala Harris's statements.
You know, this is, you know, they're not going to stop.
This is after what happened in Minnesota this summer, burning a police station to the ground, the rioting that took place there.
They're not going to stop after Election Day.
Everyone should take note on both levels.
They're not going to stop.
And they should not, and we should not.
Is that what Mitch McConnell is saying?
Does that provoke people?
Did that provoke people in the summer?
You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about.
But I like to debate this gentleman.
I said, no.
I said, if we were in high school, I'd take you behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.
You've got to be ready to take a punch.
You've got to be ready to throw a punch.
You can keep playing them all day.
We may have them down, Pap.
All right, let's get to some calls here.
Let's say hi to Rogers in Nebraska, Rogers, Sean Hannity Show.
How are you?
Hi, Sean.
It's great to speak to you.
My question is, will the Hunter Biden laptop scandal and the Biden family corruption be swept under the carpet?
It's only just beginning.
The guy that had the laptop, guess what?
He has a copy of the hard drive.
He knows.
And he's been harassed and he's thinking of a lot of lawsuits, and he's seen the hard drive.
I've been briefed on its contents, and what is in there is only the tip of the iceberg, both about the Biden family foreign syndicate corruption scandal.
That's only the tip of the iceberg.
The stuff about Hunter is going to scare the living daylights out of people when it's ultimately revealed.
Great.
All right, my friend, I'm on it.
We don't stop working.
We don't stop.
The battle for liberty and freedom, the cause of conservatism, and this great country never ends.
Vinny is in Long Island, New York.
What's up, Vinny?
How are you?
Hi, Sean.
How are you?
I'm good, sir.
Why is it always the Republicans that come out against each other?
Democrats are like the Chinese military.
They march in line without missing a step.
Here you have Romney and Langford and Cheney.
Everybody comes out.
They turn their back on Trump right away.
And now we'll be just, like you say, the weak Republicans that they've always been, always are, now that Trump is gone.
And I can't imagine what's going to happen in the next few years and what Democrats are going to try and push through.
Look, I think Republicans need new leadership in the Senate.
And I think the Republican Party needs a gut check.
What is important to them?
What is their agenda going to be?
And I think those people that are willing to lay down the agenda.
It's very simple.
This is not complicated, Vinny.
Let me ask you this.
If I was running for office and I said, I'm going to put America first.
I want to cut everybody's taxes.
Government is too big, too bloated, too bureaucratic and out of control.
I want to end the burdensome bureaucracy on business.
If I said I will secure America's borders and that we'll have merit-based immigration, if I said we are going to again be energy independent, if I said I would only put constitutionalists on the Supreme Court, not liberal judicial activists, if I would expand fracking and natural gas production on top of all the energy that we would be producing elsewhere, and if I literally negotiated much better, freer, fairer trade deals, kept us out of foreign conflicts,
but built up our military so that we have the biggest, meanest, toughest military on the face of the earth in case at some point we need to defend liberty and freedom.
We have the ability to do so and nobody would ever want to mess with us.
Would you say that that's a pretty simple but yet profound thing and it's worth fighting for, that agenda?
Absolutely, that's worth fighting for.
It's worth voting for.
That's what I mean.
I want leaders that will stand up in the well of the House and Senate and in the arena of ideas, win.
That's what I want.
How in Georgia?
Democrats would have never allowed what happened in Georgia.
We lost two seats.
We should have won the first seat on election night.
I love Doug Collins.
He's the guy I would have wanted Kemp to select to fill the Senate speech.
Me too.
He picked Loffler.
He picked Kelly Loeffler.
Okay, she did actually a pretty good job while she was there.
But Doug Collins, that night, takes a million votes away from Kelly Loeffler.
We lose that election now on the runoff.
She would have won that seat on election night, Sean.
This is the things that Republicans do that Democrats do not.
The Democrats would have never allowed him to run.
Look, I thought what Kemp did on so many different levels was wrong for the state.
Same with the Secretary of State.
And I'll tell you what I would predict right now.
Kemp is up for reelection in 2022, and I don't think he's going to be voted back in.
Although the alternative might be a Stacey Abrams as governor issue.
I don't know.
I think somebody will challenge Kemp, and you might have the same situation unfold because of the way that they have their primary system down in Georgia with runoffs, et cetera.
And you got to get 50% of the vote total.
But with all of that said, I mean, I just don't want to elect Republicans that, if they make promises, aren't going to go on our behalf and do everything in their power to make that happen and spend less time worrying if they're going to go back the next term.
And I think that's the problem.
And that's probably the biggest argument for term limits.
Oh, no doubt about that.
Sean agreed with that 100%.
All right, Benny.
You're a good man.
Thank you, my friend.
I appreciate it.
Deborah in Texas.
Hey, Deborah.
Hello.
It's such a pleasure to talk to you, Mr. Hannity.
I have admired you for telling the truth and taking the heat.
And I love your sign-off, Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled.
That verses meant a lot to me personally over the years.
So thank you.
It means a lot to me, too.
Amazing job.
Thank you.
I actually heard that the very first time at my brother's funeral when I was 10 years old.
He was 16.
He died of a brain tumor and has been a precious verse to me my whole life.
I am 68.
Wow.
You sound like a young 68, Deborah.
Well, thank you.
Thank you.
I have a lot of energy.
Yeah.
So what's on your mind?
I'm very energized.
Well, I feel like there's so much fear.
The fear on both sides.
I watch, you know, Alexandria Casio-Cortez crying on television and expressing the fear that she has.
She needs to get a grip.
Somebody needs to call her up and say, nobody's coming to kill you.
You know, it's, you know, pull yourself together.
You have a very important job.
You have to think straight.
When people get this fearful, they don't think well.
They get sick physically.
And on both sides, people need to calm down and get a grip and understand, you know, reorient themselves to the situation and then figure out how you're going to move forward calmly, rationally.
Listen, I think that's a good admonition for everybody.
And thank you for the call, Deborah.
And I wish all the best.
And that is, yes, I'm absolutely fine with people peacefully protesting, expressing their views.
We've got to protect our capital.
We've got to protect our streets, our cities, and our towns, too.
And I find the duplicity and the double standard in all of this, it's, as usual, breathtaking.
And when we talk about fighting, it's in the arena of ideas.
It's the legislative process.
It's the electoral process.
That's why we need a free, fair election system that we have confidence in with the results, integrity in the election.
And that would be voter ID.
You know, these are not complicated things.
The very things you need to get into the Democratic National Convention.
You need some type of picture ID.
You can't have voting for months on end.
You know, it's all the standards and laws must be followed.
It's not that complicated.
And we can do it if we wanted to.
There are people that don't want to do it.
That's why HR won by Pelosi.
They want to lock in all these changes, especially on mail-in voting, because they think it gives them an advantage.
And that's why immigration is so important to liberal Democrats.
But Republicans do need to stand on principle.
And if they're elected to do a job, do your job to the best of your ability and don't cower in a corner either.
All right, that's going to wrap things up for today.
