Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
This is a special edition of the Sean Hannity Show.
America trapped behind enemy lines.
Day number 27.
27.
Just just into our newsroom.
plane has crashed into the World Trade Center.
Another plane.
Apparently that was another plane.
Seems to stay.
An airplane has crashed into the World Trade Center.
Oh.
There appears to be a gaping hole.
Oh, there it goes.
There it goes.
There it goes.
Here it goes.
The whole side has collapsed.
The whole building has collapsed.
Tower 2 has had a major explosion and a complete collapse.
The road has collapsed.
She's a little bit of a little bit two airplanes have crashed into the World Trade Center.
This you're not gonna be coward by it if we're not afraid.
Faithful friend.
The freedom-loving nations of the world stand by our side.
Shimmering stars.
Proud to have the red, white, and blue.
Westwood wings.
This country will not relent.
So be a part of this country.
Jerry me.
I think about the families, children.
Freedom itself was attacked, and freedom will be defended.
She still I can hear you.
Just when you think it might be over.
Just when you think the fight has gone.
Someone will read to race.
The resolve of our great nation is being tested.
Then she stands.
I'm glad you lead for the vlog in the United States and for Richard's hand.
Then she's like we will not forget the 2800 people.
Police and fire not only were heroes at the beginning, but they're still heroes.
We're gonna come out of this emotionally stronger.
And the commitment of our fathers is now the calling of our time.
I don't think anybody should have the brain.
Those guys did more than anyone ever expected over.
In this tree.
They messed with the wrong city.
They messed with the wrong state.
She stands.
And I just don't want people to forget.
When Evil calls itself a muddy.
They all had a sense of duty to protect us all.
When are your moms to crashing down?
We'll be steadfast in our determination.
Someone will fall from the room.
The rest of the country now understand who the true defenders are.
She stayed.
We see the flying sword and setting.
May the luck of the Irish inflation.
We've seen you stand the test of time.
May the blessings of St. Patrick behold you.
And through it all the fools have fallen.
God bless Ireland and God bless the United States of America.
She stands.
Now America's embracing a new ethic and a new creed.
Let's roll.
The phrase New York's finest and New York's bravest means something now, doesn't it?
This is a time to reflect and be thankful for where we are today.
We will rebuild New York City.
Yet after America was attacked, it was as if our entire country looked into a mirror and saw our better selves.
When evil calls itself a martyr, here we are 20 years later.
And look what Joe Biden just did.
I can't even wrap my mind around this.
He abandoned fellow Americans behind enemy lines.
And now the Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan will plot, plan, scheme their next attacks on this country, along with ISIS or ISIS K, Al Qaeda, and the you know, all these other networks.
800-941 Sean, all of you I'm sure remember where you were.
I know where I was.
Um we have some poll numbers coming out.
I want to give you one in particular.
In the state of Georgia, Herschel Walker, who I have personally endorsed, unless it hurts him, then I'll take it back.
Herschel Walker is up, he has 76% in the latest Trafalgar poll.
Um, that's Robert Cahaley's poll, of supporters, Republican supporters for the primary.
And I know that there are some people, well, he's not going to win the general election.
I'm like, yes, he is.
I have every confidence he will.
I'm gonna tell you one of the reasons why.
He's one of the nicest people you'll ever meet, and when he sets his mind to something, I've never seen anybody like him.
When he set his mind to being the best football player he could be, look look at what he accomplished when he set his mind to getting in the octagon and and the you know, and and doing MMA fighting at his age, I couldn't believe it.
And he was great at it when he sets his mind to doing, you know, 1,500 push-ups a day, 3,000 sit-ups a day, and does it every single day.
I mean, that's and saying this is why I am a conservative.
Let me explain it to you, as he did on this program as he did on Hannity the TV program.
Anyway, to go over this and some polls about Joe Biden that have just come out.
We have Matt Towery, syndicated columnist, uh, also an attorney, and he runs the Insider Advantage polling company, Robert Cahaley of the Trafalgar Group.
Uh both of them correct in in their models for 2016 and 2020.
I don't think there's any other pollster in America that can say that maybe maybe Scott Rasmussen personally, I'm not sure.
He was pretty close, I know, in 2016.
Um anyway, guys.
Well, welcome back to the program.
Thanks for being with us.
Uh let's go over this Georgia poll, because we'll we're looking at the House.
Okay, I would argue it's probably easier for Republicans to take control of the House, but if you want to look at a bell weather for 2024, in 2022, Senate races are taking place in Florida, in Georgia, Herschel Walker, in South Carolina, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Ohio, Arizona, Nevada.
Um, any other swing states that we want to look at here?
And I think it would be a pretty big indicator of what 2024 will look like.
Um let's start with you, Robert Cahaley.
You did this poll on on Herschel Walker.
I w I knew he was popular, but that blew me away.
Yeah, I absolutely know.
This poll is a function of name recognition.
Uh, and it just shows you the advantage Herschel starts with.
Before we spend the nickel, uh he starts at this kind of name idea.
This is a major hurdle for the uh opponents to even get close to him.
Uh, you know, one of the advantages Trump had was when he ran everybody knew who he was.
So when you can start a race with everybody knowing your name, uh, it's great.
And with the positives that go with his name recognition are also a great benefit.
But this is a great place to start from.
Uh it'll be hard to stay there when people start throwing arrows at him.
But what do you mean when they start throwing arrows?
They've already been throwing arrows at all over the place at him, and I don't think any of it's gonna stick either because Herschel just exudes, you know, kindness, a gentle guy, but a tough guy.
Well, attacking him in the media is one thing, but when they start putting in TV ads and it starts to disseminate more to average people, uh it it'll have some cost, but I think that Herschel, you're right.
When they when they realize what kind of a person he is, uh they're gonna some of these gonna be very hollow.
But you know, the other side, uh obviously people voted for Warnock, so they're willing to believe a lot of stuff.
So uh be be prepared for uh it it it to get tighter in a general election, but uh I think it's a great place to start.
And um every advantage, and it's certainly gonna help uh maybe even clear the field a little bit.
Your take on this, Matt Tower, but the funny thing is both of you are from Georgia, know Georgia politics better than any people that I know.
Um Matt Tower, your take.
You uh you served in the Georgia legislature, and you also were on the ticket to be Lieutenant Governor at a time that no Republican was gonna win state right wide office.
I think I might have aged you as maybe an early bird special diner at this point, but uh I didn't mean any offense by it.
That's all right.
Uh yeah, I do.
By the way, Robert, it's an inside joke between me and him.
I was just so mean to him.
I just now that was awful.
It was such a low blow.
No, it's it's totally deserved.
I live in St. Petersburg, Florida now, and I like to go eat early, and you seem to always call me right when I'm taking my first bite.
It's like six o'clock, and I'm like, You're at dinner?
I'll call him at ten and the phone, he doesn't pick up.
Uh oh, I didn't I I fell asleep, I didn't see your call.
I'm like, what time do you go to bed?
730?
Well, we don't stay uh I'll stay up till two o'clock in the morning or three, Sean.
So, you know, it is actually three or four, but who's counting?
Uh yeah, exactly.
So uh a Georgia race for Herschel Walker, uh, he starts with so many advantages, as Robert has already alluded to.
He has his great name idea, ID.
He has a large number of people who still uh remember what he did for the state of Georgia, putting Georgia football really on the map with Coach Vince Dewey.
I so I I do believe these numbers are totally correct.
Um what I think has been the most stunning thing about Herschel Walker running, Sean, is how the Republican establishment has tried every way in the world to stop him.
Here you have a candidate with natural name ID who who is does a great job on television, who's a a statewide hero, and and instead of embracing him, they've done everything but throw the kitchen sink at him.
Uh these these a lot of these political insiders in Georgia Republicans, and I might might admit also some of the national Republicans who are supposed to be trying to help elect someone to the U.S. Senate.
So not only does he have to fight CNN, the AJC, the Associated Press, but he's got to get over his own Republican Party.
They can't recognize they have a gift in their hand, and they won't take advantage of it.
You know, I mean, that's the that is the most amazing thing.
Quick break more with our pollsters on the other side.
Matt Towery, Robert Cahaley, 800-941 Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
We'll get to your calls next half hour, 800-941 Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
Oh, I'm gonna tell you about a Tunnel to Towers Foundation, their benefit concert commemorating what happened on 9-11, 2001.
If, in fact, you get some time, you want to go out and have a great time, we'll tell you all about it.
We'll be right back.
America will never forget.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
And as we continue, our polsters, Matt Towery, Robert Cahale of the Trafalgar group join us.
All of these states are gonna matter, and and and we'll see.
I I get the feeling Reagan famously said, Are you better off than you were four years ago?
The answer was an a st you know, overwhelming hell no.
What what we're not better off.
And now the question is after eight months of Joe Biden, can you name a single thing that he's done that's worked?
Because Robert Cahaley, I cannot.
Uh the more recent poll that that you have done with Trafalgar.
I mean, when you have, you know, confidence or no confidence in one party or another, and and Joe Biden and the survey here, I mean, not confident at all in his handling of Afghanistan.
That's okay.
83% total when you say not confident at all, which is 74%, not very confident, 8.7%.
That's 83%.
You don't get consensus like that in polls very often.
No, you you really don't.
And there's a there's a growing consensus.
It's like he there was a separation for a while where Biden was a little more personally popular than his policies, but he has sunk down and and met those policies at this point after taking such uh so many hits with Afghanistan.
And you know, if he keeps going this way, he could be less popular than Kamala Harris soon.
You know, it's interesting.
A friend of mine that's that's in a similar business in the focus group business, actually did a focus group.
There's still a perception that Joe is a nice guy, but he's really cognitively deficient.
That was the the headline out of that.
And I'm like, why are people believing he's such a nice guy, but he just doesn't know what the hell he's doing?
You know, the I I don't even think that's the right question to ask.
Is it the is he up to the job?
How is he performing?
You know, grade him on the economy, grade him on uh immigration, grade him on energy, grade him on the uh inflation, grade him on Afghanistan.
And and I don't see one area.
I'd I'd gladly tell you if I saw one that Joe Biden would I look at and say he's done a good job.
I don't see it.
Matt.
Well, he I'll tell you who he's doing a good job for.
He's doing a good job for the people in the White House and behind the the scenes who want this country to radically change very, very quickly.
And he's a perfect um conduit for them to implement anything they want to implement.
And they're doing it day after day after day.
Now, the American people obviously don't like it.
His polling numbers are low, and I would submit to you that if you had more pollsters to actually poll accurately in this country, his approval rating would be closer to about 41, between 39 and 41, and not even float anywhere near the the mid-40s.
But you we don't have that in this country, we only have a few.
Robert being one of the other ones who does.
And and so we know that this president is not resonating with the public.
He's losing that suburban vote that he picked up in the 2020 election.
He's certainly galvanizing the Trump vote against him, and I think you're you're going to see some movement even amongst some demographics that normally support Democrats who are not gonna like this government overreach because now it's overreaching right to them, including the the new mandate with regard to the vaccine.
Well said.
Now we're gonna put uh the Trafalgar poll with the convention of states uh action committee on Hannity.com will tweet it out also if you're on at Sean Hannity or Twitter.
Even Democrats think that Biden's withdrawal has made it more likely that we'll see another 9-11 style terror attack.
More Democrats think it's more likely.
That's a disaster, but we'll put the entire poll up on Hannity.com.
Uh Matt Towery, thank you.
Robert Cahaley, Trafalgar, thank you.
800-941-SHAWN is our number.
We'll be right back.
Driving the liberals nuts.
Sean Hannity is back on the radio right now.
All right, listen, there is uh 25 now to the top of the hour.
800 941 Sean, our number.
We'll get to your calls in a minute.
First, I want to tell remind everybody if you're in the New York area, there is a Tunnel to Towers Foundation benefit concert commemorating the 20 years since the 9-11 attacks at the Trade Center.
And uh anyway, they have an incredible concert for, you know, I I always quote our friend, the CEO, founder of Tunnel to Towers, uh Frank Ziller, uh, who's been on this program.
We're gonna honor our fallen soldiers in a truly reverent way.
Remember what happened on September 11th, and our many great heroes, including my own brother Steven, who paid the ultimate sacrifice that day.
Anyway, it's a tribute benefit concert and you know, sponsored Home Depot Foundation, GMC, Verizon, thanks to all of them.
Uh, IHeart stations around the country will be carrying it, and a lot of great people are going to be associated with this.
All proceeds will benefit the foundation.
They provide mortgage-free homes to injured vets, first responders, gold star families.
And the great thing is, if you're in the New York area and you have nothing to do uh this weekend, well, guess what?
It's happening.
We're gonna play this song now.
I love it.
The video's phenomenal.
I Drive Your Truck, powerful song by Lee Bryce.
89 cents in the ashtray, half-empty bottle of Gatorade.
Rolling in the floor board.
That dirty Braves can't on the day.
Dope tax hanging from the rear view.
Old school can and cow boots and the goat Army shirt.
Fold it in the bed.
This thing burns gas like crazy.
But that's all right.
People got their ways cool.
I drive your trip.
I roll it every window down and I'm burning.
every back road in this town i find the field i tear it up till all the pains I drive your true.
It's such an amazing song.
It's got a great accompanied video to it.
Lee Bryce.
I watched your rise.
I was a huge fan from day one.
And I'm now watching your career.
I've watched your career take off.
I'm not watching it.
I mean, it's now been a while.
And I've never had a chance to talk to you.
Never had a chance to meet with you.
And then I see you doing this benefit concert.
And my only problem is I can't go this weekend, which really sucks because I'd love to be there with you and out in the crowd and just having fun with you.
Um you got a great lineup of stars that are going to be uh joining you, which is incredible also, and a real tribute to you.
Um and you know, you have people like, for example, uh Journey, uh, the uh chain smokers, the Steve Miller band, John uh Bogarty of Credence Clearwater Revival, Ann Wilson of Heart.
Uh, you got our friend Lee Greenwood.
I can't even name everybody, and you got surprise guests too.
Let's talk about how you got involved with Tunnel to Towers.
I mean, the whole story, I mean, first of all, we all know what a great organization this is.
And, you know, we all know Frank Siller.
We know about his brother Steven, who paid the ultimate sacrifice that day.
How'd you get hooked up with him?
He's a great guy.
Well, through my management and being at a show, actually recently, Frank and I got to meet him whenever I got to really hear Frank's story and you know, talk to him, and he actually uh reached out, and I get to, you know, he's been doing his 500-mile walk to commemorate, and uh, he's gonna finish up that walk on uh uh on Saturday, and uh I get to I get to kind of do his last leg with him and so really honored to be a part of that and to be a part of the uh stars and strings and and uh it's gonna be really really cool.
Uh um at the rooftop, the Pier 17, uh, and it's gonna be Darius Rucker there, Zach Brown band, Chris Young, and so it's instead of a regular concert, though, it's gonna be what we call a you know an end around or a writer's round, and so or a guitar pool.
And so this is gonna be so special because you know it this is uh a really a way to be able to hear the song, the songwriters and the singers, uh, and the stories behind the songs in a broken down kind of way.
And so um it's really cool to get back to those roots.
But man, it's just it's honestly just an honor to be a part of uh anything like this, and this is especially really cool uh tunnel to towers, man, just the sword behind it, so good to be behind it, and uh just be a part of it is just an honor.
All the proceeds will benefit the foundation.
They provide mortgage-free homes to injured vets, first responders, gold star families with young children as part of their smart home program.
They host uh programs such as the Fallen First Responder Home Program, the Gold Star Family Home Program.
Uh you mentioned the annual Tunnel to Towers 5K, which re traces Steven Siller's final steps, his brother's final steps, and Frank is walking 500 miles through six states from DC to Lower Manhattan in the Never Forget National Walk, a special commemoration of you know the 20th anniversary, and I can't believe it's been 20 years since 9-11, and uh you being a part of this makes it even extra special, and and the group of people that are performing with you makes it extra special.
And we're gonna put all the details up on my website, Hannity.com.
Uh, you gotta be grateful that I mean so happy to be out in front of a crowd again.
I'm sure it's been a rough year for you.
Yeah, you know, the last going on two years now, even you know, time flies.
Uh it's been rough, but uh the last six, eight weeks we've been we've been hitting it again, and there's been uh it's been really amazing to be back out.
You know, to see see faces and and uh hear voices singing back to you, that energy has just been you know that's what we live for.
You know, we we we live the right music and inspires and gets people out there moving and and uh and moving in some way.
And uh uh this should be a really special show, uh just a little different than people are used to seeing, but uh most of the times they come out of these kinds of shows going, man, that's one of the coolest things they've seen because they've never seen anything like it.
It's at the rooftop Pier 17, it's in New York City, and you can get tickets.
We'll put the link on Hannity.com and we really appreciate you being with us, and uh I wish I could make it with you, but next time you're in town, I promise I will.
Uh you could just go to T2T.org, click on the donate, send a New York fire uh city firefighter, uh, whoever it happens to be, it's just t2t.org and 911 day.org.
All right.
And uh anyway, we appreciate everything that you're doing, and and thanks so much for being with us.
Lee Bryce can't wait to stop the line.
Absolutely, man.
Absolutely.
You know what?
Hey, it's good to talk to you, and uh we'll have to do it again soon.
Big fan, thank you.
800, 941 Sean.
You want to be a part of the program.
Uh all right, let's say hi to let's say out of Trisha in Texas on the Sean Hannity show.
What's up, Tricia?
Hi, Sean.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you?
Glad you called.
I'm thank you.
I'm I'm doing better now.
I recently my husband and I recently had COVID and it was a very scary experience.
I I was afraid that I might get it because um and I'm a candidate that can't have the vaccine.
Um so I wanted to be proactive, and I reached out to my doctor, my primary care doctor, and asked what the treatment plan would be for me.
And she said, There is no treatment plan.
You are um, you know, we you take over-the-counter medication unless and until you need hospitalization.
Well, that didn't sit well with me.
Uh so I tried to scope out, you know, other other possibilities.
Well, I got COVID early August and uh I contacted the frontline doctors, and fortunately they they provided medication, but I had difficulty getting my medication filled at the pharmacy.
It was called in on the 14th of August.
We didn't get it until the 20th.
Our m our I'm sorry, our condition deteriorated rapidly.
We we did get part of the order uh from the pharmacy, and and that I think that helped somewhat, but we didn't get the ivermectin until the twentieth.
When we got it, you know, it was it was a very bad situation.
Our our blood oxygen was in the eighties.
We were we were really sick, and um we took the ivermectin two days later, we were on our road to recovery, and I knew I was gonna make it.
But Sean, I'll tell you what.
By the way, you're not taking the horse de armor uh Ivermectin.
No, I'm not.
You're taking the one that won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 2015, ivermectin, correct?
Yes, sir.
Absolutely.
One that is designed and prescribed to human beings, that one.
I'm just making sure.
And it works.
For for me, it worked for me.
And I'm not anti-vaccine I at all.
I want I'm anti-mandate vaccine.
But I I you know, if people want it, I want them to have it.
But there are a lot of people who can have it.
And and Sean, I just have to say, had it not been for our daughter fighting for us to get this medication out of the pharmacy, we wouldn't have gotten it.
Because when you're that sick, you can't be your own advocate.
You you have to have someone supporting you and helping you.
And have we not had her, she went up to the doctor's office to make sure that they got the prescription into the pharmacy.
They showed her the record that they did, and then they gave her a hard copy prescription.
She took it to the pharmacy.
Only then did they fill the ivermectin.
Um she later went back to to the pharmacy with a card, a thank you card to them, and wrote some um Bible um passages in the in the card and said because they decided the day after that they filled our prescription that they would no longer fill ivermectin.
She went up there and gave them that card and asked him to please do the right thing.
That's that's a good thing.
You know, I will tell you about my personal choice and and I've I've listened to all I've listened to to doctors trained at Harvard.
Doctors trained at yeah, we've had them on this these this program.
Uh doctors with with varying points of view.
The one thing I don't like is doing nothing.
And that's what a lot of states have been doing.
Oh, you you test positive, do contact tracing, go home, isolate yourself from your family, and um if you get a fever, take two tile and all extra strength and get your fever down and your oxygen level at some point drops to 90 or below you need to probably go to an emergency room.
Problem with that is by the time you get to that point where your oxygen starts to drop, that means your lungs have been severely damaged already.
A lot of the damage has been done.
And the issue of mitigating the the impact of the virus, that is where the therapeutics, I mean it's it says so much that for the first time, you know, we we we have Joe Biden, it was almost a year ago Donald Trump got regenerating.
And that is the monoclonial antibodies and Eli Lilly has a version of it.
And he only mentioned it for the first time yesterday.
And I know so many people that have used that.
That, to me, is the gold standard.
From what I've seen, I'm not a doctor.
Consult with your doctor.
But I like the idea of being a proactive medicine versus, oh, well, I see your oxygen in the 70s.
We're going to put you on a ventilator.
Hang on.
Yes, and that's what it felt like we were waiting to have happen had we done nothing.
But I'm not the kind of person that is going to do nothing.
And, again, fortunately, I had my daughter helping us.
And I want to share something with you.
My daughter and I started an Instagram page just a little while ago because we filmed a a video going into more detail of what what exactly happened and if it's okay I'd like to share it.
It's at COVID Empowered on Instagram we're gonna be uploading that that video to tell people what happened to us and what they can do to be proactive and so because this we're in this together.
We have to fight for our lives right now and I I'd like to help as many people as I can yeah well listen I just urge people please talk to the professionals that know and by the way if you're if your doctor is not one that knows a lot about this you know seek out other doctors other opinions maybe some you'll agree with maybe some you'll disagree with but this is where doing your own research and educating yourself really matters.
Yes and making choices about your care I mean it it is our bodies we should be able to make choices about our care.
Oh this isn't about freedom though we were told yesterday Trisha quick break we'll come back more of your calls 800 941 Sean is our number let's get back to our phones.
All right Frank in Pennsylvania you're on the Sean Hannity show.
Frank glad you called we only have about a minute it's all yours.
All right Sean uh as soon as nine eleven happened I couldn't listen to music I had to listen to news on AM radio and I listened to 1010, 660, listening for survivors, updated news and I came upon this talk radio post in the afternoon.
I listened for like 10 minutes, never listened to talk radio before and I kept listening to news.
The next day I came upon you again and I'm like who the hell is this guy?
He's right on he's saying everything that I think and the next day I found myself looking for you on the radio and I noted what time it was or what station and that was my uh beginning of listening to talk radio 20 years ago tomorrow.
You know I've been in radio 33 years.
This week we it's our 20th anniversary I don't really like to talk about it to be very honest in light of what this what tomorrow means to me.
You know we play Michael W. Smith there she stands where do you see the musical version tonight you're gonna want to record it that we put together and I I I it takes me back to to that day to that time and you know there was some amazing unity that it came out of that evil.
You know the best of best in people came out as a result of some of the worst in humanity and it's sad you know and here we are 20 years later and we just abandoned our fellow Americans in Afghanistan.
I I I can't even I can't wrap my mind around it.
Yeah I don't think there'll ever be another 912 again everybody united like they were yeah great that's such a good point.
I'm glad you found me Frank I'm glad you stuck with me and I'm gonna I'm gonna work hard every day to keep you as a listener.
