This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right, news Roundup Information Overload Hour, Sean Hannity Show.
We'll get to your calls this hour 800-941 Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
Everybody saw this coming, but Biden.
I mean, everybody warned him.
This is not a 20-year mission literally collapsed in a 48-hour period completely, in spite of the reassurances of our commander in chief, Joe Biden himself, that this would not happen.
Oh no, these we're very confident.
They've got 300,000 trained troops, some of the best trained troops in the entire world.
And they've got an Air Force behind them, and there's only 75,000 Taliban fighters.
No way.
We'll blow my blah, blah, blah.
Barely getting out.
And yeah, you're not going to see images of our embassy.
Well, we got reports.
Yeah, we got the Taliban is now in the presidential palace about to declare the Islamic emirate of Afghanistan.
Great job, Joe.
Or as let's just say Leon Panetta says, This is his bay of pigs moment.
Our credibility right now is in question.
Of course it's in question.
Many ways they think of John Kennedy, Bay of Pigs.
Unfolded quickly.
And President Kennedy thought everyone everything would be fine.
That was not the case.
Kennedy took responsibility for what took place.
I strongly recommend President Biden take responsibility and admit his mistakes that he made here.
No, Biden went on to blame Donald Trump as if every other policy that actually worked that he destroyed.
And if he really disagreed with it, you would think he would have fixed that, just like he destroyed energy independence, and as I had mentioned just briefly in the last hour, OPEC is now rejected the Biden administration's plea and begging for more oil production.
When all he has to do is turn the spigot back on and let our oil producers produce again.
Let our energy companies get up and running again.
How about give a waiver to the Keystone XL pipeline, Joe?
You have no problem.
You screwed up the border that Trump had secured too.
You had no problem reversing that successful policy.
Stay in Mexico, build the wall, end catch and release.
Now it's process and release in the middle of a pandemic and send dispersed people without any vaccine, passports, no vaccine mandates, certainly no mask mandates.
Uh disperse them all around the United States so that illegal immigrants can infect healthy Americans now that your CDC has finally come up with the brilliant conclusion that the vaccine no longer prevents the spread of COVID.
Which means, well, we'll get into it later in the week.
I was going to do it today, which is that people have got to pay attention to the therapeutics like Regeneron, Eli Lilly, because they told you that this wouldn't happen, but here we are again, more government lies, and this shouldn't surprise anybody.
I mean, this is a we lost here because Joe lost it.
Joe lost this war.
How do the parents of men and women killed their field today?
How do the people that fought there feel today?
How do they have people severely injured over there feel today?
And feel have they felt all weekend at the sites and the shocking unfolding of all of this.
And who's going to be held accountable?
You know, I love Biden is so quick to say our mission was not nation building.
It was there to make sure that groups like Al Qaeda couldn't have a safe haven in Afghanistan.
And we got bin Laden.
Not because of any decision Joe uh made to help make it happen.
The only reason we got bin Laden was because of three people that were waterboarded.
Remember all the talk about waterboard.
There are only three people.
One was Khalid Sheikh Muhammad.
He led us to the courier that led us to Bin Laden, that led us to the Abbatabat uh compound in Pakistan, where our brave men and women in the military took him out.
Wouldn't have happened If Joe Biden had his way, because he was in the room saying don't do it, which just reinforces everything former defense secretary Gates says about Biden is that this guy has gotten every foreign policy, made every foreign policy blunder and been on the wrong side of history every single time ever.
And then Gen Saki's email says, I will be on vacation through August, blah, blah, blah.
Nobody to be seen or heard.
Missing in action.
Joe Biden.
Didn't just, oh, we get a picture of him, you know, doing a National Security Council Zoom call in a room.
It looked, it looked just pathetic.
This is manifestly not Saigon.
Looks an awful lot like it.
But even Democrat Debbie Dingle says Kabul disasters like the fall of Saigon aren't just conservatives saying it.
You know, we have other video, another Saigon, chaotic scenes, Kabul International Airport.
Can you imagine if you're one of the people that is so desperate to get out of that country that you're clinging to a cargo aircraft, hoping that you might be able to hang on as it takes off and then falling out of the air and dying?
We don't even know the total number of people that has happened to.
Wall Street Journal, Saigon on steroids.
Desperate rush to flee Afghanistan, Kabul Airport descends into chaos.
You know, one thing that nobody has mentioned, how many other Americans are still there?
I don't even want to comment on it too much.
There are media organizations begging now the Biden White House.
How the hell are we going to get our people out of there?
Because they're not out of there.
They're there.
How are we going to get them out, Joe?
What are you going to do?
Even if fake news CNN historian said Kabul may be Biden Sagan moment.
And an albatross around his neck for the rest of time.
Can I ask who is going to be held accountable for this?
Who is going to be held accountable?
How did Joe Biden blink and Millie and everybody else?
How did they get all of this so wrong?
You know, blinking his, you know, Jen Saki last week making that stupid statement.
I mean, well, the world is watching them.
I'm like, and they have to decide, you know, what they want their role in the world to be.
I'm like, they've already decided.
They're terrorists.
We already know what Taliban rule is going to look like they were in power before.
That's when women didn't get weren't allowed to go to school or to work.
Blinking, it's not in their self the self-interest of the Taliban not to harbor Al-Qaeda.
Now there is a way to defeat them, and the reason this didn't happen on Trump's watch is exactly because it wasn't Trump that allowed for the buildup of ISIS and the caliphate, but he's the one that beat beat the hell out of him and bombed the hell out of them and bombed them into oblivion and defeated the caliphate.
There's ways to stop people that are hellbent on terrorism.
You've got to defeat them.
After 20 years, that wasn't an option.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs says the terror threat to the U.S. is increasing much much faster than anticipated.
Well, that's kind of stating the obvious, I guess, at this point, isn't it?
Pentagon top brass hid the truth about Afghan security forces like Colonel North was just going into.
They had privately harbored fundamental doubts about how good the Afghan security forces were.
So did Joe Biden just flat out lie to us after being told otherwise?
You know, who in the who besides the president?
He said the buck stops with him.
Okay, then this is your disaster.
This is your bay of pigs.
And anybody that's left there that loses their life, well, that is on you, Joe.
Just like anybody in the American, because we're just letting in people, no vaccinations, no passport mandates, no testing.
Just disperse people with COVID all around the country.
Very high percentage coming in illegal immigrants with COVID positivity.
Our job was to get Bin Laden.
You cannot spin your way out of this.
What about all the people that said that they had confidence in these Afghan security forces, like the chairman of the joint chiefs?
How could you be so wrong?
What it would on every level there's just failure.
This is Jimmy Carter.
It's a disgrace.
It's an embarrassment.
Pelosi, though, thinks it went great, of course.
Just great.
Politico debunked the talking points on this failure.
How the White House wants to spin the fall of Kabul.
Wow.
I'm shocked.
This is the liberal media mob even sees it.
Debbie Dingle, MSNBC.
I'm not gonna lie, if seasoned mainstream Democrats from the establishment wing of this party aren't even gonna go along with the White House on this, they've got a real credibility problem.
Sharp response to Blinken came from Reuters, one of their correspondents, saying that the airlift from Saigon didn't happen until two weeks after a peace deal was signed.
The evacuate evacuation of Kabul is happening within two weeks, still left under Biden's own timeline for the end of the mission.
They haven't gotten every American out of there.
The White House clearly isn't prepared for this.
They're, you know, out there, well, we can disagree.
And you know, it was right to pull the troops out, which is Biden.
I don't I didn't want to be involved in nation building.
Well, you left all the weapons and the cash of weapons and munitions for the Taliban and all the the armored vehicles and everything in between.
So not only did you leave and not take the munitions and ammo, now you've just armed the Taliban.
No, it's not Donald Trump's fault.
You can't argue pulling out was the good and right thing to do, and that Trump gave you no choice but to pull out.
Trump's whole policy was based on conditions on the ground and a and a real threat will bomb you straight to oblivion if you dare break any of the agreements that were made there.
That's why they didn't do it under Trump.
They didn't dare do it under Trump.
It's just unbelievable.
It's so sad.
I can't even imagine.
Imagine you served over there, someone you love serves over there.
This is what you know, watching.
It's an embarrassment.
But it's everything you expect.
2.3 trillion dollars for what?
More than 88 billion spent on Afghan security.
A lot of good that did.
The president leaves, U.S. Embassy lowers our flag.
You know, we're racing there to get people up in planes as fast as we can.
We have to send the Marines back in after we brought them home.
Leaves us where we were, what, 20 wasted years ago?
Mainstream uh MSN.com article.
Why did my friend get blown up for what?
It's a powerful article.
Now we know the situation may lead to the Department of State allowing Afghan applicants move to temporary housing locations.
What are they gonna do?
How are they gonna get everyone over here?
Good luck, that's not gonna happen.
It's one viral video of an Afghan girl tearfully admitting the fears of dying slowly in history.
It's probably sadly, I hope she's wrong, but I doubt it.
Pentagon blames the Afghan army, blames Donald Trump, blames the president of Afghanistan that fled.
How about it was your how did you not see it coming?
Where's your intelligence?
Where's your military might?
Now we have a new terrorism threat on the what, 20th anniversary of coming of 9-11, 2001.
Unbelievable.
800 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, bring back it's just pretty unreal.
I just, I mean, your own eyes don't your own eyes don't just deceive you or what?
All right, we'll take a quick break.
We'll come back.
We'll get to your calls, final half hour, 800-941 Sean.
Why in a planned date certain withdrawal would you leave your ammunition?
Would you leave your cash of weaponry and armored vehicles and every other vehicle in between, knowing the Taliban had already taken what 60% of the country, then that was before this weekend.
Why would you ever do that?
Because now not only are they in charge, but they're armed and in charge.
And God only knows what weaponry they have from this great army, one of the best equipped armies in the world, including an Air Force, Joe Biden said.
You know, I'm trying to understand.
If you if you if you want to blame Trump here, which is partly what he's doing, right?
You know, all right, you're blaming Trump.
I inherited this plan.
Okay, and then he's claiming it was his decision.
And the buck stops with him to end this endless, these endless wars.
This was not our original mission.
He even mentioned he campaigned on ending the war.
Well, you didn't have to end it this way.
The criticism is that why didn't they fear you as much as they feared Trump?
Now you know some of there's some people out there that you know I say this to all due respect.
I don't care if you have a different opinion than me, the Lincoln Project, the Liz Cheneys of the world.
Um Liz, you you vote for Joe Biden.
I'm sure you did.
You won't admit it if you did.
I don't know if she ever did admit it.
I would suspect probably.
You hate Donald Trump.
You hate the tweets, you hate the attitude, you hate you hate the the his personality.
Okay, I get it.
But did China fear Trump?
Did Russia fear Trump?
Did the Taliban fear Trump?
Did ISIS get their ass kicked by Trump?
Did people believe threats when Trump made them?
Why did he get all these trade deals?
How is it possible he was able to even extract any deal out of China?
No president had even tried before.
And Mexico and Canada and our Western European allies and NATO, and it goes on and on and on.
And if Joe really didn't like Trump's policy, well, he had no problem opening up the borders and taking secure borders and and now just processing millions of illegal immigrants in the middle of a pandemic, had no problem ending energy independence that we had achieved under Trump first time in 75 years, had no problem changing every other policy as quickly as he possibly could.
And look at where we are.
Name one thing that Joe Biden has done that you would label a success, because I can't think of one.
Now we take the flag down.
Now we have people racing to the airport.
We have no idea how many Americans are left.
The Afghani president is gone, and now the Taliban controls Kabul and the presidential palace.
Great job, Joe.
But I'm gonna blame Trump.
I'll blame the Afghan army, and I'll blame the Afghan president that fled that told me you wouldn't flee.
Your calls next.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean, our number you want to be a part of the program.
All right, as promised to our busy phones we go.
Ben is in Pennsylvania.
Ben, glad you called.
Thanks for being with us.
Hi, Sean, thanks a lot.
I photographed the anti-communist jihad in Afghanistan in 1983 and 1991.
Uh met a bunch of great people.
One of them was Ahmed Shah Massood, the great uh the lion of the Panchier.
He fought uh the Afghan communists, the Soviets, and the Taliban for several years as well.
Um I have one point I want to get across.
There are 10,000 anti-Taliban fighters in the Panchier Valley, 90 miles north of Kabul.
They are defying the Taliban.
We need to support them.
There are a hundred thousand people.
The problem is is we were lied to at a very, very at the top levels that this army that was created would be able to take care of things.
Biden is just a couple of weeks ago as we've been playing over and over again, you know, saying, well, is there any chance the Taliban can get back in power?
No, no chance at all.
Well, that didn't take long, and you know, we if we're barely getting, I don't even know if we've gotten every American out yet.
I really don't Know.
All I know is this didn't have to happen.
And this blame of Donald Trump is a crock.
Donald Trump and they they had a plan, and part of their plan was very straightforward that they would be it would be a trust and verify plan.
That's it.
Conditions-based withdrawal.
Period.
Conditions based.
Not uh, they're coming after us and taking over the country.
We're gonna leave now and leave them all our munitions and all our vehicles and and uh cash or weaponry.
I mean, this is madness.
And by as Biden and Jen Saki were AWOL as Afghanistan collapses.
These folks are not the army.
They are the same people who defied and defeated the Taliban for years in their valley.
Um they are good fighters.
I know them.
We need to support these people with humanitarian aid, with weapons, and frankly, with air support.
There has been some air support uh used in Afghanistan.
We absolutely need to use it to help the people of Panchier.
They are the resistance now.
They're it.
If we don't this is our one chance to salvage whatever honor we have left.
The Taliban of 80% of the country right now.
They own it.
Now they're now they're going to do what terrorists do like them do.
It's gonna be oppression towards women, and it's gonna be a return to where it was 20 years ago and a safe haven for radical Islamic terrorism.
That's what's gonna that's what it's gonna be.
I mean, you know, you're talking about 10,000 fighters.
I mean, you you see the number of people, you know, that are hanging out inside of the you know, it right in the middle of Kabul.
They're they're all over the place.
They've taken over everything.
I'm not sure 10,000 people are gonna have much of an impact, and I'm not sure that there's any appetite if if di if considering they told us everything that was so wrong on every level that we're gonna trust that they're capable of any military effort, I just don't believe it.
And you'll say, well, Hannity, what's the difference between Trump and Joe Biden?
Well, it was gonna be conditions-based withdrawal, number one, number two, the Taliban was so shown what happened in Iraq and Syria and how Donald Trump systematically, you know, be defeated the caliphate, the opposite of what Biden and Obama did.
Biden and Obama, they just kept advancing until they they took over pretty much you know both areas completely.
And Trump literally, without much fanfare, certainly didn't get any credit from the media mob.
He systematically went town to town and he walked them back and he drove them into the ground and he and he killed them and wiped them out and defeated the caliphate.
And that's what the Taliban believed Donald Trump would do.
And they didn't believe that Joe Biden would be would be this week.
If there's any surprise, is that it's he's even weaker than we thought.
Sad.
I mean, I I wish it would work.
Uh anyway, appreciate the call.
Daniel Navada, what's up, Daniel?
How are you, sir?
Shh, Sean, thank you for taking my call.
I appreciate it.
And uh, and we really appreciate up here in Carson City, Nevada, getting at least a minimum of four hours of the truth and nothing.
All I ask, it's not a lot.
And we get it, and we appreciate it.
So we do, I'm kidding.
Hey, uh quick question.
Um, you know, I I'm I'm one of them uh point six to one point three percent of the population that has a blood disorder.
It's called Bon Wilderman's disease.
And basically what that disorder is, it's a lack of a factor eight in your blood, which doesn't clot very well.
Uh I I my right.
So I'm just we're a couple of steps, and I'm a severe type two.
My family is severe type two, my kids, my sons, and that.
And so we have it under control, and there's medications for that, and we take care of it.
We're just under hemophiliac, so but we're not there.
What is this?
And and I've talked to my doctors, I've talked to random people on the street.
What is any one of the three um available uh vaccines do to somebody in my position, somebody that has uh uh uh von Wilbert?
Does this make me a severe type three?
There's different levels of Von Wilderburn's disease, and not anybody can answer that.
What is my I can't I listen, I'm I'm gonna tell you right now, you're we're way out of my personal wheelhouse.
But my question to you is is different.
What is your own doctors?
What do your doctors tell you?
They they look at you when you ask your kid a question if he got his hand in a cookie jar and he's telling you no, and he's confused.
And they look at me with confusion because they don't know what to say, Sean.
They don't they don't want to tell me get it.
They don't want to tell me not to get it.
They just can tell me we're gonna be able to do that.
Well, you need to find a better doctor.
I'm gonna be very blunt with you because you know, uh I've already had the discussion with my doctor.
Okay, if if if the day's gonna come and I've got three weeks to live, I want you to tell me.
Just look me in the eye, tell me.
Be honest.
Uh I want doctors that are going to give me their best professional opinion and not be timid and not be intimidated by by a a woke mob that may not like the fact that them telling you say in one case, taking the vaccine is a high risk for you, and it's something you shouldn't do, and this is how I would handle it, and then give you other alternatives.
Um and I just think you need another doctor, it sounds like to me.
If they're not willing to give you an answer, you gotta find someone who will that you trust.
You know, and and that makes sense.
And and we and we will, and we'll continue to do that, but it's it's it's just one of them things.
It's like, well, nobody and nobody's gonna be able to say what the tenure effect of this drug is on people with uh uh blood disorders.
I mean how it's now they're talking about vaccine number three, shot number three coming, and and what happened to oh life goes back to normal once you once you get the vaccine.
That didn't last very long.
It's either vax or mask.
Now it's vax and mask and and maybe have a breakthrough case.
Kind of disappointing.
I had a side note for you, Sean, and this was this was something I was thinking about heavy.
And you know what?
I got a couple of good responses on it, I'll tell you.
The your Friday show, you mentioned all the records that that uh uh uh that Uncle Sleepy Joe was breaking.
Oh my goodness.
And I'm telling you, you are gonna upset the liberals because they have like a 30 year reign in their book of world records.
And Joe has come in seven minutes and broke every liberal book of world records there can be.
We're gonna have to start adding new pages to this book of world records that he's gonna be.
These are not world records that you wanna set like at the Olympics.
These are the world records you don't want to be near and and have as your legacy of destruction.
Listen, Daniel, we appreciate your call.
I do wish you the best.
I really do.
Um I'm sorry about your condition, your family's condition.
Please take good care of yourself and your family.
Find the right doctors that you have faith and trust in that you believe can help you, okay?
I'm not just uh it's I'm not a doctor.
I can I can't play one on radio.
I know we used to kid around with Dr. Hannity, but that was relationship advice, and even there, what do I know?
I'm the last person to ask.
Let's say hi to MJ Florida.
MJ, how are you?
Glad you called.
Hey, hey, Sean, Semper Fi, how are you doing today?
Hey, Semper Fiber.
Are you a Marine?
Yes.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
My submarine, my husband, my brother, we're all Marines, and I just want to tell you.
Sempre Fidelis, I'm very impressed.
Semper Fidelist.
Thank you, sir.
I just want to say we didn't have a call sign for this mission, but I've got it now.
It's called FUBAR.
This is absolute foobar what is going on right now.
And the moment we get all of our people out and safe, as well as the F Afghanis who have helped us, and if if there's if it's against the law to bring them into this country, I suggest that we fly them to Mexico and just bring them in that way.
But the the thing I will say is that.
I don't mean to laugh, but I mean it's so twisted.
It's so twisted.
You're like, well, if we can't get them in legally, we'll just drop 'em off in Mexico and then they could just walk across the border and and they'll get the you know, they'll just get processed and come in that way, and it'll be a lot easier than actually following the law.
I mean, any any idiot any idiot would know that, right?
It's so sad.
And this is sir, I will tell you this.
The moment we do all that and secure this mission, we d the Republicans and some of the Democrats need to demand a congressional investigation on this.
Because I am telling you they need to pull every transcript that Joe Biden has had, because I'm telling you my feelings, I have no evidence, this man is compromised.
Okay, because this only benefits China and Russia.
And I I just feel deep within my heart that how could he go against all his intelligence?
I mean, this man who where where is this guy is MIA?
He is you he is is AWOL.
And you Sir, I'll tell you this lastly.
I I I'm sorry, so sorry to interrupt you, but we were spoiled for four years with Donald Trump.
Okay?
Do you remember people getting set on fire in cages and all the beheadings for eight years before that?
We were spoiled by the m wonderful presidency we had.
Remember when he dropped the mother of all bombs?
I mean, this guy didn't mess around.
And Russia and China and Iran and all our other they they knew their place in this world.
And I'm I'm just telling you there needs to be an a congressional investigation because I am so ticked off right now.
And God's not going to be able to do that.
Listen, I I echo your comments.
I will say this.
The difference between Biden and Trump, and there are so many.
But I'm gonna give you the biggest difference is that they feared and they believed Donald Trump.
He he said what he meant, and he meant what he said, and they knew that he would follow up and do it, whatever it was.
That's what that sums up the difference.
They study Joe Biden.
They know Joe Biden is a cognitive mess.
They know that he's weak.
They know he's likely not running the show, and they know America's weakened.
I mean, we're now begging OPEC for to pr to produce more oil.
We're now giving pipeline waivers to Vladimir.
Compromised?
Yeah, I would say we now know that there's more than compromise with Russia and Hunter and Kazakhstan and Ukraine and certainly China.
The whole family's up to their eyeballs in this corruption.
It just it's sad.
It's pathetic.
And Chinese government's moving right in, and they're recognizing the Taliban as the official government of Afghanistan.
I wonder what that's all about.
We'll find out.
We'll we'll learn soon enough.
All right, Semperify MJ, we appreciate you.
800 Thank you for all your service.
We appreciate it.
Uh Chad is in Texas.
Chad, how are you?
Sean, I'm good.
You know, I really wish I could say happy marvelous Monday, but it's far from that.
The fall of the United States military for the stands in Afghanistan for a presence of security for the Afghan people has really been such a slap in the face for the last 20 years and a slap in the face of the previous administration, okay?
And it is a far cry just in seven months of what was had for four years of the Donald Trump administration.
And and your book that you had last year, you pointed things out.
No, if you're gonna vote for X, I'm I'm paraphrasing here.
You vote for X, why is it gonna happen?
And we're seeing that happening before our very eyes, okay?
And all the other terrorist groups, uh let alone the Taliban, okay, Al Qaeda, all of them.
They're seeing how weak this administration is.
We got less than a month to go till the 20 year of 9-11.
I'm really concerned and I'm really fearful of how weak and lawlessness that man in this administration is.
I mean, how does he recover?
People are talking about resignation.
Do you actually do you see that of how this can recover to any degree?
I uh we don't have any options except another election.
If we're gonna be very, very honest and and straightforward.
All right, let's say Biden can't finish his term.
Let's say he's incapable of it.
Well, then you got Kamala Harris.
I don't know what's worse, to be very honest.
And I'm not sure who would be in charge in that administration either.
Look, there it there's only one way to resolve this, and that is the American people on the local level, state level, and in elections, we need first election integrity.
I have been repeating myself over and over again, the five, six things I keep mentioning.
That has to happen in every single state, especially states like Florida and Georgia and North Carolina and New Hampshire and Ohio and Wisconsin and Michigan and Arizona and Nevada, etc.
All of this has to Pennsylvania, another one.
This all has to happen.
Next, it's gonna be simple to prosecute the case against the new Green Deal and Joe Biden.
The third thing, lay out this, how do we save America and America first agenda?
If we do that and we unite, we'll win, in my opinion.
That's that to me is the best course of action.
And that's where I'm solely focused uh pretty much every second that I'm awake.
Uh anyway, I appreciate the call, Chad.
God bless you.
800 nine four-one Sean is our number.
And that's gonna wrap things up for today.
All right, uh, all the news you'll probably will never get from the media mob.
How could everybody see this happening except Joe Biden?
Is Bay of Pigs an unmitigated disaster?
Twenty years lost in two days.
How did it happen?
Sarah Carter, all her contacts, Dan Hoffman, Marco Rubio, Newt Gingrich, Mike McCall, Laura Trump, Lara Logan, Dana Lash, all looking into uh what's the future for women in the Emirates of Afghanistan?
All coming up.
That would be tonight, 9 Eastern.
Set you DVR on Hannah on Fox.
We'll see you then back here tomorrow.
Thank you as always for being with us.
