The Biden Administration is very bizarrely defending the rising energy costs. The bottom line, costs are going up because bad policy is coming down...on our heads. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

| This is a special edition of the Sean Hennity Show. | |
| America trapped behind enemy lines. | |
| Day number 83. | |
| 83. | |
| And day number 96 of Joe Biden pledging not to abandon Americans, hundreds of them still there and their families and thousands of green card holders eligible to be here. | |
| And of course, our Afghan allies that we promised we would get them the hell out of there. | |
| And he's just turned the page. | |
| You know, I don't think there's anybody else in media that I know of, nobody I know of, that even mentions these people abandoned. | |
| Can you imagine if Donald Trump did this, what the reaction of the, it would be, America held hostage, day number 83, Donald Trump abandons Americans. | |
| What we only care about our fellow Americans based on politics? | |
| Because I've said this before. | |
| I don't care if every American that's there, if we can get them home, they're going to spend the rest of their lives and dedicate the rest of their lives to get me fired. | |
| There are people that get paid to do that. | |
| I wouldn't care. | |
| I want our fellow Americans home. | |
| It's not political to me. | |
| Not asking whether or not you're a Republican, a Democrat, conservative, or liberal. | |
| You're American and you're held behind enemy lines and you're a hostage of a brutal terrorist organization known as the Taliban. | |
| That's not good for anybody. | |
| A lot of attention now today, rightly so, is, you know, the Democrats clearly have learned nothing. | |
| They've learned absolutely nothing about what happened on Tuesday as they now push their Build Back Better New Green Deal socialism. | |
| And I know that there's a big deal whether or not there's going to be this vote in the House today. | |
| To me, that part doesn't really even matter because I don't think Joe Manchin is going to go along with the House and their bill. | |
| I don't know how many of you saw the viral video of these activists blocking Joe Manchin from driving his car. | |
| He's moving his car. | |
| Well, don't stand in front of it. | |
| And I'm not saying to hit anybody, but I mean the outright harassment. | |
| You know, in a million years, and I've had instances, I'll tell you, I was at the, it's what's called in Oyster Bay, New York, they have this Oyster Fest every year. | |
| And one year I was there and Chuck Schumer was walking by and they had this big sign, Chuck Schumer, meet Chuck Schumer. | |
| So I went over and I introduced myself. | |
| He knew me right away. | |
| We had a civil conversation. | |
| A civil conversation. | |
| Why do people feel they have a right to do the things they do and get in people's grill like this? | |
| That's that, you know, this is the danger. | |
| This is my challenge to like Liz Cheney. | |
| So they kick off Jim Jordan, they kick off Jim Banks, they stack the deck and they put on Kinzinger and they put on Liz Cheney on this committee for January 6th. | |
| Now, we condemn what happened on January 6th. | |
| We have to protect our capital, our elected officials, our institutions. | |
| I said it then. | |
| I said it now. | |
| I believed it then. | |
| I believe it now. | |
| But then how is it? | |
| Where's the committee investigating the 534 riots that resulted in thousands of police officers injured, police precincts burned to the ground, city blocks taken over, you know, cops pelted with bricks, rocks, bottles, Molotov cocktails, dozens of Americans dead, and nobody says a word about it. | |
| Why? | |
| Because Donald Trump wasn't involved in that part of it. | |
| If rioting is wrong, it's wrong everywhere. | |
| We had 534 of them. | |
| Official riots. | |
| Dozens of people died. | |
| Thousands were injured. | |
| Arson, looting, all took, we're talking about billions of dollars in damage and theft. | |
| Nobody cares. | |
| And this is where, you know, you want to know what really led up to Tuesday. | |
| This is all, it's like a crescendo. | |
| It's just building and building and building and building. | |
| And Americans don't like what happened in Afghanistan. | |
| They don't like the disaster that is known as the border. | |
| They don't like the fact that COVID got worse this year, even with, quote, three vaccines and monoclonal antibodies that Joe Biden only mentioned one time. | |
| And because it was working for Republicans, oh, they decided they decided that, you know, we're going to ration it even though we don't have a shortage of it. | |
| It's insane. | |
| Now, what's interesting is I don't want Democrats. | |
| I think if they want to continue and just act as though Tuesday didn't happen, I'm perfectly fine with that. | |
| And they want to push the new Green Deal radical socialism. | |
| I don't want that for the country. | |
| Nobody knows what's in this bill. | |
| Nobody knows whose taxes are going up. | |
| All we know is everything that Joe Biden and this new Green Deal Democratic Socialist Party has thrust upon us is not working. | |
| Afghanistan, did you ever think in your life we'd abandon fellow Americans? | |
| I can't get over that. | |
| Well, Hannity, get over it. | |
| It's a reality. | |
| That's not the country I believe in. | |
| That's not the America that I know. | |
| That's not the military that I know. | |
| And yet, 13 days prior to doing it, Joe Biden says he's not going to abandon Americans. | |
| Okay. | |
| He abandons them. | |
| Then the disaster with COVID this year. | |
| You know what? | |
| You want to know where vaccine hesitancy comes from? | |
| It came from the CDC because they keep changing their opinion every five minutes and the NIH and Dr. Fauci, oh, mask isn't going to work. | |
| And every other prediction that was wrong. | |
| Joe Biden, mixed messaging on vaccinations, fully vaccinated, socially distant, outside, mask on, then goes inside and meets two elderly people, a former president named Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalind, 96, 93, respectively, take the mask off, get close, and have no social distancing and take pictures. | |
| Does that make any sense? | |
| This has been going on the whole time. | |
| You know, Americans at this point, they don't know who to believe because they've changed and shifted the bar. | |
| First, oh, we can't do that. | |
| We can't have a vaccine mandate. | |
| Now you got a vaccine mandate. | |
| Every single prediction they made, they've gotten wrong. | |
| They never talk about the one therapeutic that we know is working, which is monoclonal antibodies. | |
| I know many, many people, this is only anecdotal. | |
| Talk to your own doctor. | |
| I'm not going to play one on radio. | |
| Anyway, so this week is what it is. | |
| And one of the most underreported stories of the week is China laughing at Biden's apology. | |
| This is the disaster of Biden's week. | |
| He goes to Glasgow. | |
| He falls asleep. | |
| He has to be woken up by an aide. | |
| And then he apologizes for America pulling out of the Paris climate accords. | |
| Now China is mocking us over it. | |
| Meanwhile, China is viewed as a developing nation like India is, and America, you, the American people, we get suckered into paying the full freight of billions of dollars. | |
| And meanwhile, under Donald Trump, the last four years, we have reduced more carbon emissions than any other country on the face of the earth. | |
| How is that possible? | |
| But you got failure Afghanistan, failure at the border, failure with COVID, failure, obviously, with energy, and failure on the economy. | |
| Ask yourself, what has Joe Biden done that instills any confidence in anybody? | |
| China has no problem saber-rattling every day over Taiwan, nor does Putin have any problem moving troops closer and closer to Ukraine for what probably is going to be a showdown with them. | |
| Now, Republican senators have requested the military aid for Taiwan amid pressure from China. | |
| I don't even think Joe Biden cares. | |
| Now, China's calculation is this. | |
| They say, well, he said he wouldn't abandon Americans in Afghanistan. | |
| What makes us think that he really is going to back Taiwan? | |
| And by the way, that is a logical thought process because I don't think Joe Biden would lift a finger for Taiwan. | |
| I actually still believe with all the money that Hunter Biden got in his $1.5 billion Bank of China deal that Biden is compromised. | |
| The family is compromised. | |
| Because if Libya knew that Hunter was a crack addict that liked prostitutes, what do you think Russia has on zero experience, Hunter? | |
| Because he got $3.5 million from a Russian oligarch, the former First Lady of Moscow. | |
| $1.5 billion Bank of China? | |
| No experience? | |
| Just like the millions he got for no experience? | |
| Do you have any experience in oil? | |
| No. | |
| Energy? | |
| No. | |
| Gas, natural gas? | |
| No. | |
| Ukraine? | |
| No. | |
| Why do you think they gave you millions of dollars? | |
| I don't know. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Maybe because your daddy's the vice president of the United States and he's in charge of the money that will be distributed to Ukraine? | |
| Probably. | |
| Probably. | |
| I have an idea. | |
| What is it? | |
| He's going to paint him a picture. | |
| A beautiful picture. | |
| A beautiful picture. | |
| By the way, if that's art, I'm an artist. | |
| Oh, forget about it. | |
| He's Picasso. | |
| You know, China mocking powerless Biden. | |
| It's just a weak president. | |
| Now Biden is desperately all day today calling Democrats. | |
| Now he's begging them to vote for his agenda. | |
| Now, the question is, it really isn't about the House vote today. | |
| I know that the media is making it a big deal. | |
| I don't think it matters what the House does. | |
| The people that I'm most interested now in where they go are people like Manchin and Cinema, because I think Manchin has had it up to here because he sees the phony accounting that the Democrats are using. | |
| Nancy Pelosi once famously said, well, you can't pass a bill without what is in it. | |
| And she also said you shouldn't pass a bill that hasn't been scored by the CBO, Congressional Budget Office. | |
| Well, the bill they have, I don't even think it's written yet. | |
| They're just telling people what they think is going to be in the final bill. | |
| But then it still has to go to the Senate. | |
| You got Kamala Harris now to work on refugees, migration, and borders in Paris. | |
| That's a headline in the Washington Examiner. | |
| Now, there are some Democrats pointing the finger at Biden over the election wreckage. | |
| How could you not? | |
| Newsweek is asking the question, can Joe Biden save his presidency? | |
| I have an answer that may surprise you. | |
| Can Joe Biden save his presidency? | |
| The answer is yes. | |
| And the way Joe could save his presidency is immediately go back to energy independence. | |
| That will help the economy greatly. | |
| He can bring back the stay in Mexico policy. | |
| He can bring back building the wall. | |
| He could bring back the Keystone XL pipeline, put it back online. | |
| He can open up exploration in Alaska. | |
| He can ask, instead of OPEC, ask Texas and Oklahoma and North Dakota to help. | |
| He could adopt the Trump policies on energy, on borders, on national defense, and he can send troops to go rescue the Americans that he abandoned in Afghanistan. | |
| Yeah, he can save his presidency. | |
| We did, you know, we were talking to Newt Gingrich yesterday about this. | |
| After the shellacking that Bill Clinton got in his first midterm, he did change course. | |
| He saved his presidency. | |
| Republicans took control of the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years. | |
| Newt Gingrich ran on a contract with America, which I would like Republicans to do one year from now. | |
| I want them to coalesce, nationalize an election, elect us, and we will do these things and make it the simple conservative principles that we talk about every day. | |
| And it worked. | |
| But Bill Clinton adjusted and he said the era of big government is over. | |
| The end of welfare as we know it. | |
| Now, what happened? | |
| As a result, Bill Clinton ended up getting reelected. | |
| All right, got to take a break. | |
| 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| 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. | |
| You know, as we get more and more information, we now know that the virology lab in Wuhan seems 100% at this point, in my mind anyway, the origins of the COVID virus. | |
| This all took place in a lab. | |
| That's what we call gain of function. | |
| A letter from a guy by the name of Lawrence Tobak, the National Institute of Health's principal deputy director to Congressman James Comer of Kentucky confirms that the NIH, this is Fauci's NIH, funded research at the virology lab in 2018 and 19 that manipulated a bat coronavirus called W1V1. | |
| Researchers at the Institute grafted spike proteins with other coronaviruses onto W1V1 to see if the modified virus was capable of binding in a mouse that possessed the ACE2 receptors that are also found in humans, the same receptor, by the way, which SARS COVID-19 binds. | |
| The modified virus, gain of function, What they found is reproduced more rapidly and made infected, humanized mice sicker than the unmodified virus. | |
| Now, starting in 2014, the NIH, literally National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, headed by Anthony Fauci, gives out grants to study the risk of bat coronavirus' emergence. | |
| More than $3.7 million is given over the period of five years. | |
| And again, it's funneled through this group, the National, the EcoHealth Alliance. | |
| In 2018 and 19, that research creates coronaviruses more virulent, more easily transmitted. | |
| The NIH says that was a mistake and that they don't give money to gain of function research. | |
| Now, meanwhile, the NIH says that the manipulated virus was not COVID-19. | |
| It does show that the sort of Wuhan lab was doing these sorts of experiments on wild bats after the outbreak. | |
| Anyway, they all rally other scientists to push the idea that COVID-19 came from the wet market. | |
| Remember that comment? | |
| Investigators can find no natural origin for the virus. | |
| Looks like you paid for it. | |
| Unbelievable. | |
| And you remember the same guy that said gain of function is so important that even if it caused a worldwide pandemic, he still supports it. | |
| The great Dr. Fauci. | |
| Wow. | |
| Sean gets the answers no one else does. | |
| America deserves to know the truth about Congress. | |
| All right, 25 to the top of the hour, 800-941 Sean, our number. | |
| We got a lot of ground to cover today, and we will, including the latest in the Durham investigation, which seems to run into perpetuity. | |
| But let me go back. | |
| So this is Newsweek. | |
| Hardly members of the vast right-wing conspiracy, right? | |
| And the headline is, can Joe Biden save his presidency? | |
| Joe Biden's presidency was meant to be defined by calm, experience, competence. | |
| Yet nine months into his term, he has been teetering on the brink of failure. | |
| Teetering? | |
| He's failed on every level. | |
| There's not a single thing I think a Democrat can point out. | |
| Hey, we're really better off because Joe did A, B, C, or D. Name one thing. | |
| If you can think of it, shout it out in your car or call us and tell us because I can't, if somebody, if we find somebody, Katie, that has it as the issue that Joe's successful on, I want to hear it. | |
| They even go on and say no president in the modern era, not Jimmy Carter, not Donald Trump, has fallen out of grace so swiftly, this soon, into their presidency. | |
| So to answer their question, can Joe save his presidency? | |
| The answer is yes, he can. | |
| But the problem is, I don't think Joe knows what day of the week it is. | |
| I don't know who's in charge. | |
| I just don't know. | |
| Because the guy that fell asleep in Glasgow this week, the guy that just keeps, you know, repeating the same things over and over again, expecting a different result. | |
| How many more times is he going to beg OPEC to increase oil production? | |
| How many more times will he be humiliated on the world stage as they reject him? | |
| Do you know how stupid he looks to the world? | |
| OPEC is, they understand our energy resources in this country. | |
| And they're like, they're the dumbest people in the world. | |
| They're begging us for oil when they've got more than us. | |
| And we're stupid enough to allow a president to increase the cost of everything and deny American high-paying career jobs with skill-specific jobs for the energy industry. | |
| Yeah, he can save his presidency. | |
| Go save the Americans you abandoned in Afghanistan. | |
| Bring back the stay of Mexico policy. | |
| Start building the wall again. | |
| End your idiotic policy of catch and release. | |
| How embarrassing was it that Joe Biden had no clue that his own Department of Justice has the plan to pay $450,000 to illegal immigrants that were separated from their families during the Trump era? | |
| Turns out Peter Doocy was right, and Biden was wrong. | |
| For reports that were surfacing, that your administration is planning to pay illegal immigrants who are separated from their families at the border up to $450,000 each, possibly $1 million per family. | |
| Do you think that that might incentivize more people to come over illegally? | |
| If you guys keep sending that garbage out, yeah, but it's not true. | |
| So this is a garbage report. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Okay. | |
| $450,000 per person. | |
| Is that what you're saying? | |
| That was separated from a family member at the border under the last administration. | |
| That's not going to happen. | |
| Apparently it's happening because the administration confirmed it yesterday. | |
| I mean, these are the times we live in. | |
| Even the New York Times, you know, is pointing out Democrats, if they deny the political reality, they do so at their own peril. | |
| And they ended up pointing out that what happened on Tuesday, and no Democrat who cares about winning elections in 2022 and the presidency in 2024 should see this as anything else. | |
| And that is the result trend lines are a political nightmare for the Democratic Party. | |
| And they go on, the New York Times, familiar takeaways like a wake-up call, warning shot, don't do justice here because the danger of ignoring those trends is too great. | |
| What would do justice, what is badly needed, is an honest conversation in the Democratic Party about how to return to the moderate policies and values that fueled the Blue Wave victories in 2018 and won Joe Biden the presidency in 2020. | |
| Well, Joe Biden didn't campaign because he was in the candidate protection program. | |
| You have a top Democratic super PAC telling the party they better shape up or they're going to face serious consequences. | |
| That's Priority USA, Priorities USA, one of their top Democratic super PACs. | |
| They said you better shape up or face serious losses in the midterms a year from now. | |
| The Daily Beast has an op-ed. | |
| They frame white women, youngin' voters as handmaidens of white supremacy. | |
| Wow. | |
| Later on, we'll have Joe Conch on. | |
| Where do you hear? | |
| I was pretty shocked by all of this. | |
| Michael Eric Dyson, what he said about Winsom Sears, a black mouth-moving, legitimizing white supremacy. | |
| And then we get all the lectures about our consumption and, oh, you better shop early. | |
| And, oh, the supply chain issue is your fault. | |
| You know, now we have a Secretary of Energy, average price of a gallon of gasoline up $1.50. | |
| Everything every American pays for costs more. | |
| You would think the energy secretary might be smart enough to stop begging OPEC that keeps rejecting their request to produce more oil. | |
| And Jennifer Granholm, the energy secretary, burst out laughing when asked what is the plan to increase oil production. | |
| And then she blames OPEC. | |
| The person that reduced artificially the supply of energy in the world is Joe Biden's policies, his new Green Dealism. | |
| Listen to her laugh. | |
| What is the Granholm plan to increase oil production in America? | |
| That is hilarious. | |
| Would that I had the magic wand on this? | |
| As you know, of course, oil is a global market. | |
| It is controlled by a cartel. | |
| That cartel is called OPEC. | |
| And they made a decision yesterday that they were not going to increase beyond what they were already planning. | |
| No, we had our own energy independence. | |
| How does she not know that? | |
| How do they not go back to what worked? | |
| This is where I think this is such a radicalized party. | |
| They don't have any Bill Clinton in them, meaning the era of big government is over and the end of welfare as we know it. | |
| That moment will not come. | |
| With this party, it is impossible. | |
| It is controlled by the radical leftist new Green Deal socialists, and they will not change one iota. | |
| And all they're going to do is lash out at the couple of moderates, if you even want to say that, about like Mansion and Cinema. | |
| Now, some Democrats have hit the panic button, a few of them, but not many of them. | |
| Nancy Pelosi admitted that election night was not a good night for the Democrats, but she's right back at it today, and she's trying to push this new Green Deal socialism. | |
| Okay, well, I don't think that's going to work. | |
| The American people have looked at it, don't want it, don't like it. | |
| There's nobody that's out there supporting it. | |
| Americans would respond if Joe Biden controlled the border, brought us back to energy independence, dramatically lowering the price of everything we're purchasing, reducing the heavy, heavy toll of inflation on every American family, disproportionately impacting the poor and the middle class. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| They don't want to wake up. | |
| They think they know better, but it's not going to work. | |
| You know, look at what's happening. | |
| Truck drivers are now facing shortages, and many are expected to quit big companies because of the vaccine mandate, just like in the military, just like we see with nurses, emergency personnel, hospital workers, police, firemen. | |
| Officials warning the vaccine mandate could exacerbate the truck driver shortage we already have. | |
| Wall Street Journal points out Congress considers allowing teenagers to drive big rigs. | |
| I'm a little concerned about that because if you look at the higher incidence of accidents, it happens to end up being younger people, not as experienced drivers. | |
| Liberals, you know, on fake news, CNN, I played this last night. | |
| There was a family of 11, and they, a Texas couple, nine children. | |
| Two, by the way, they've adopted most of these kids. | |
| Two are their biological children. | |
| They've adopted six others. | |
| They have one foster child. | |
| Wonderful family, it sounds like to me, very generous and kind and loving people to bring kids into their home that need a family. | |
| And she started seeing the prices of milk rising. | |
| She said a gallon of milk was $1.99. | |
| Now it's $2.79. | |
| When you buy 12 gallons a week times four weeks, that's a lot of money. | |
| And she and her husband added that he felt guilty that they were being forced to buy less healthy food to save money. | |
| Then people in the liberal media start laughing. | |
| What's so funny about that? | |
| That's sad. | |
| Who's getting hurt here? | |
| We were a little ahead of the curve. | |
| We had a farmer call into this program and tell us that fertilizer shortages threaten also to spike food costs. | |
| We had a farmer tell us that directly a couple of weeks ago. | |
| And we're still begging OPEC. | |
| It is, you know, doubled down on stupid. | |
| We have a new report out, by the way, published by the Senate Joint Economic Committee. | |
| Massive labor shortage continues to grip the nation and hold back any economic recovery. | |
| And of course, you got the pandemic on top of it. | |
| Now, of course, you got inflation and now the high cost of energy was not caused by OPEC. | |
| It's caused by Joe Biden. | |
| But Joe is busy appeasing the new Green Deal radicals in his party, unveiling a plan to reduce methane emissions by 2030. | |
| How about we drive down the price of gasoline first? | |
| How about we help out poor Americans and middle-class Americans first? | |
| At what point, if you want to know what America last policies look like, you're seeing it every single day. | |
| This is a disaster in the making. | |
| And I don't see that they've learned a single thing from what happened this week. | |
| Doubts are now growing, and it looks like they've canceled the vote in the House today, which I kind of predicted. | |
| You know, the only reason Nancy Pelosi cancels the vote, that means she doesn't have the votes. | |
| That's the only reason. | |
| She will not take a vote and lose. | |
| That's her MO. | |
| So they were getting close to ramming Drew Biden's social agenda. | |
| But as I was saying at the beginning of the program, it wouldn't matter because Joe Manchin would have the last word anyway. | |
| And they can be as mad as they want at Joe Manchin, and they can surround his car all they want. | |
| It looks like a mini-insurrection. | |
| They're going to have Liz Cheney comment on that. | |
| Is Liz Cheney ever going to comment on the 534 riots that took place in the summer of 2020? | |
| Is she going to stand up for the thousands of police officers pelted with bricks, rocks, bottles, and Molotov cocktails? | |
| Or the dozens of Americans killed like Horace Lorenzo Anderson Jr. | |
| We haven't forgotten him or his father that now lives without his son in the Chop Chaz autonomous summer of love zone. | |
| The billions of dollars in financial losses for businesses as a result of either arson and/or looting. | |
| Where's that commission? | |
| Rioting is wrong, period. | |
| End of sentence. | |
| And everybody, if we're going to have a commission on the one riot, we should have them on all of them. | |
| How to prevent them from happening in the future. | |
| I just, I'm looking for any glimmer of hope here, and I don't really see it. | |
| Now, Democrats are clinging to the fact that the U.S. job market posted much better numbers this month, which is okay. | |
| Non-farm payroll jobs increasing. | |
| And I think it was 81,000 jobs higher than they expected. | |
| Okay, I'll take it. | |
| I want good news. | |
| I don't want bad news on the economy. | |
| The reality is there's nothing but bad news. | |
| The reality is inflation is here to stay. | |
| The reality is gas prices are not going to go down on their own, and it's not OPEC's fault. | |
| It's not a cartel's fault. | |
| It's this administration's fault because we had full, complete energy independence. | |
| That is one of the biggest causes of where our economy is right now. | |
| But do you think AOC and the squad and the new Green Deal socialists are going to allow Joe to bring back online the Keystone XL pipeline and exploration in Alaska and drilling in Texas and Oklahoma, where they have all these moratoriums? | |
| I doubt it. | |
