When news broke earlier this year that baby KJ, a newborn in Philadelphia, had successfully received the world's first personalized gene editing treatment.
It represented a milestone for both researchers and patients.
But there's a gripping tale of discovery behind this accomplishment.

Yeah, yesterday and I saw a couple of your stations put on.
You found some empty shelves.
Go back and take a look at some of those shelves again.
Okay.
No, you know what, Sherlock.
Of course they do.
And yeah, the American people care about COVID, getting it under control, and they care about the economy.
And on the night on the 16th of November, when I acknowledged that I would not become the governor, that he had won the election.
I did not challenge the outcome of the election, unlike some recent folks did.
Freedom is back in style.
Welcome to the revolution.
Yeah, we are coming to your centipede.
Don't play out gentiles and send you a contrast.
Sean Hannity Sean Hannity Show.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
This is a special edition of the Sean Hannity Show.
America trapped behind enemy lines.
Day number one sixteen.
Day 116, Joe's turned the page, abandoned Americans in the Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan, 129 days since he promised he'd never do it.
And nobody ever talks about it in the media mob.
It is sad.
It is pathetic.
I'll give you one other thing.
Um, in our third hour today, our news roundup information overload hour, we'll have Congressman Mike Waltz.
Nobody talks about the China Olympics in 2022.
The winter Olympics are now going to be in China.
I don't think anything's gonna happen with Taiwan until after those Olympics.
Then I believe the territorial ambitions will be on full display.
We see them now talking about reunification, flying their fighter jets, testing the systems of defense that the uh that Taiwan has, checking America's resolve.
But uh, it seems inevitable.
Like it's inevitable that Putin is going to invade Ukraine.
He wouldn't have 175,000 troops on the border with Ukraine if he didn't plan on doing uh what he did when Biden and Obama were in office the last time with Crimea, etc.
And Eastern Ukraine.
So I think that's gonna happen also, except, you know, remember that happened I think it was two, three months after the Sochi Olympics.
So you see a same similar pattern emerging here.
No nobody talks about The Uyghur population, the ethnic Muslim population that is being put into forced labor camps in China.
All these companies that are going to be, you know, sponsoring the Olympics in in China, the MBA making a fortune in China, you know, Proctor and Gamble, Coke, Nike, they're all going to be sponsoring the Olympics.
Look at what they're doing to the Uyghur.
Look at how they've treating the Tibetans over the years and their attempts to wipe them out.
You know, ethnic Muslims, you know, literally forced labor camps.
Nobody, nobody mentions it.
Look at the crackdown in Hong Kong.
Look at the crackdown that is now coming and the aggressive actions of China with Taiwan.
Um it is, you know, the atrocities are beyond awful.
Why the International Olympic Committee ever gave them the Olympics, I don't know.
You know, where are all the liberals?
You know, for example, you know, where where are all the feminist groups as it relates to the Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan?
Women being beaten in the street.
They don't dress properly, or they're not out with a male relative.
You know, where are all these human rights groups?
If you if you're gay or lesbian, what happens to you in the Islamic emirates of Afghanistan?
You will die.
You have people that helped us, our Afghan allies being killed every day.
Now girls can't go to school and women can't go to work.
And Joe Biden abandoned Americans, military families.
You know, at what point where are the people that were so outspoken about apartheid in South Africa?
Where are these people?
I you know, I would think they would agree with Sean Hannity here, who's standing up for minority rights, human rights, women's rights.
I I'm I just have a hard time understanding it.
But anyway, um, you know, and then on the other hand, I I I think of I I just happen to know enough athletes, people will spend a decade or more, 20 years of their life preparing for the Olympics.
And I don't want to rip that out from under them, but nor do I want to support this this regime with all these human rights abuses either.
I'm just against boycotts.
I don't think the athletes should have to pay.
But maybe financially, you know, maybe the U.S. doesn't cover it.
And and maybe the, you know, there's so much money involved in this, it's just nauseating the whole thing.
Anyway, 800-941 Shauna's our number if you want to be a part of the program.
We'll we'll get into this in more detail later in the show.
There's no words to describe what Mitch McConnell has done to betray the the every Republican in the country, every Republican in the House and Senate that has been willing to hold the line.
Democrats have not allowed Republicans to ever be a part of the budget process at all in any way whatsoever.
Then Mitch McConnell and every Republican says for for two months that they're not gonna help the Democrats raise the debt ceiling.
That's what they promised us.
Last minute, Mitch McConnell goes against his own word and his promise, gets 10 other Republicans to go along with it, and allows the Democrats to have more time so that they can push build back better new Green Deal socialism, which is not going particularly well for them.
Now McConnell is gonna do the same exact thing except a different way.
Now you might say, Hannity, that's a contradiction.
Well, the result is the same.
The result being that he's going to, he's he's creating a new rule in the Senate just to give Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi more time and allow them to raise the debt ceiling, except this time, the vote is gonna be different.
Republicans, if he can get nine other Republicans, and I assume he will, because that's how the swamp works, the sewer of Washington, D.C. works, uh, with this new rule, they'll vote for the new rule and a one-time exception to f uh to the filibuster to raise the nation's borrowing limit Before next week's deadline.
Janet Yellen says it's the 15th.
A narrow 222, 212 vote in the House.
Now Adam Kinzinger of Illinois voted in favor, the only Republican.
Of course, Kinziger and Liz Cheney are the two that are on the predetermined outcome, January 6th committee, after they kicked off Jim Banks and Jim Jordan.
I mean, it's such a joke.
It's a predetermined outcome.
You know, are they going to talk to the whistleblowers that say that they were told at National Guard members to stand down?
Are they going to let, you know, with all the talk about, well, we're going after Mark Meadows.
Well, is Mark Meadows going to be able to tell his story how Donald Trump two days prior asked for the National Guard to be called up in light of the number of people that were coming to Washington, D.C. Will they play the words?
Many of you will now peacefully and patriotically march to the Capitol so your voices can be heard.
I spoke out.
You can't have our institutions.
You can't have what happened on January 6th happened.
I've been very outspoken about it.
And people responsible need to be held accountable.
But so should the people that rioted, you know, the 500 some odd riots that took place in the summer of 2020 that the media mob and Democrats either ignored completely or said were mostly peaceful.
Well, mostly peaceful resulted in dozens of dead Americans.
Mostly peaceful resulted in thousands of injured cops pelted with bricks, rocks, bottles, and Molotov cocktails and worse.
You know, mostly peaceful ended up with billions of dollars in property damage, arson and looting.
Where's that committee, Liz?
I know you've now aligned with the people that called your father a war criminal and a murderer and a crook.
You know, what I understand.
I think I figured out what Liz Cheney and Kinziger are about.
They they have one other motive, and that's to purge the party of all things Donald Trump.
It's not going to work.
There's a poll that came out yesterday.
Liz Cheney is now trailing her opponent in this next congressional race by 18 points.
She's going to be voted out of office.
But she's going to, you know, and now she's aligned herself with the very people that said the most vile things, untrue things, I will add, about her father and family, and the very people that support policies that seem to be the antithesis of everything that Dick Cheney, or at least the Dick Cheney I knew, once stood for, especially on foreign policy.
Is Dick Cheney really like Joe Biden's policies on Russia and China and Iran?
I'd be hard pressed.
How does he feel about what happened in Afghanistan, abandoning Americans?
I mean, there's this insane wing of the never Trumper movement that will support full-on socialism and total appeasement and compromise every value they have just because Donald Trump is mean in their view.
Doesn't say things the way they want it said, and is not part of their group or the swamp.
They'll ignore his tax cuts.
They'll ignore his gutting the bureaucracy.
They'll ignore his progress at the at the border.
They'll ignore energy independence.
They'll ignore his promise on judges.
They'll ignore free and fair trade.
They'll ignore his support for law and order and and law enforcement.
They'll ignore his peace through strength.
You know, maybe they don't like he got us out of foreign conflicts that we're never ending.
Anyway, what Mitch now has done here, he's now gone behind the back of every Republican senator, and he has no business being the leader anymore.
The only thing he's ever been good at, halfway decent at are judges.
We've given him the benefit of the doubt time and time again.
And now they're actually allowing this bill to be tied to the Medicare bill, which now puts every Republican in a quandary.
Because if they don't support the new rule, they're going to be labeled in their next campaign.
Somebody like Ron Johnson as somebody that wants to cut Medicare.
They need to bifurcate these two issues into separate bills.
And my understanding is that Senator Kennedy of Louisiana, uh Lindsey Graham, even Mitt Romney wants to want to separate and bifurcate the two bills so that people can have a straight up and down vote on Mitch's new rule in the Senate.
Let's get an honest assessment, not a swamp assessment of what they're doing here.
You know, Wall Street Journal poll.
Voters are pessimistic under Biden.
Just 27% of those polls say the country's on the right track.
Only 37% in another poll of Democratic voters want Biden to run again.
I mean, that's a tip poll that came out uh yesterday.
Only 37% of Democrats.
Another 16% chose Harris.
13% overall remain unsure.
That's a disaster.
Biden's reelection shows 22% support.
Harris only at 12%.
By the way, this was interesting in the Wall Street Journal poll.
Should be scary news to Democrats.
Now, last year, Biden won the Hispanic vote 63 to 35.
New Wall Street Journal poll finds a troubling development for the Democratic Party.
You know, because they don't have any single success story that they can run on.
And according to the polls of the time, the journal found Hispanic voters are evenly split in their choice for Congress.
Ask which party that they would back if the election were held today.
37% Hispanic American voters said that they would support Republican congressional candidates.
I mean, these poll numbers spell doom for Democrats.
And it is it is becoming more obvious every day.
By the way, uh the radical appointment of this woman uh, you know, supports bankrupting the oil and gas industries in the name of climate change.
Yeah, she's now withdrawn her name from consideration.
Uh 800, 941 Shauna's on number.
A lot of news to get to.
Uh, we'll tell you about it.
is on right now.
Right as we roll along 800, 941 Sean Tollfrey number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Uh, this Saul Amarova supporting bankruptcy bankrupting oil and gas industries in the name of climate change is now uh withdrawn herself from consideration, accepted by Biden.
Uh she backs out having you know all these ties.
I'm not a communist, I don't subscribe to that uh ideology.
I could choose, uh I could not choose where I was born.
I don't remember joining any Facebook group that subscribes to this ideology.
There's no record of me ever actually participating in any Marxist communist discussions of any kind.
Anyway, so uh we'll see what happens.
There are a couple of other ones that will come up.
Uh the Biden administration is now scrambling to save the controversial FCC nominee after this nomination to become the next controller of currency.
The Biden administration now has another controversial candidate.
Um Fox Business has learned that the White House views Gigi Sohn's nomination as the commissioner to the FCC as similarly imperiled given the staunch Republican opposition, because she wants to cancel Fox News and has said so publicly.
We even have the tape of her being asked about it.
Oh, you mean the infamous tweets I put out there?
And I don't know who the owner of the own network is.
It's not on my dish TV that I've ever seen.
And uh apparently, because I guess this person wants to get some advantage against Fox is willing to go with somebody that might be willing to bring back something similar to the fairness doctrine, which is a disaster for all things conservative if you want a free media in this country.
This is this has been a long term goal of the radical left to silence conservative voices.
This is where conservative talk radio, this is where the rubber meets the road.
Whether you like every show on Fox or not, it doesn't matter.
I won't have a voice on Fox if if this lady applies the rules that she stated in her quote infamous Twitter uh accounts.
By the way, another poll today.
Kamala Harris, 55% of voters do not think she is qualified to be president or vice president.
It's bad.
You know, Michael Goodwin, I thought really tore apart, you know, Biden's weakness in Afghanistan, opened the door to aggression from Russia and China.
What did I say?
I've been saying this the whole time.
They if Joe's willing to abandon Americans and the Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan, he's not going to lift a finger to help Taiwan or Ukraine.
And I'm not saying to get into a foreign conflict.
There's so many other ways to effectively neutralize their geographic ambitions.
When news broke earlier this year that Baby KJ, a newborn in Philadelphia, had successfully received the world's first personalized gene editing treatment.
It represented a milestone for both researchers and patients.
But there's a gripping tale of discovery behind this accomplishment and its creators.

Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
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.

Jobs.
Joe Biden can't spell it, and he can't keep them for the American people.
Check out the Sean Hannity jobs forum today.
Now, Hannity's on coast to coast.
I guess the owner's name is Robert.
I don't know who he is.
I never met him.
And his son is Charles.
And Charles is the one that supports this FCC nominee.
All right.
I got it.
All right, I stand corrected.
Um that was not what the original report said, just to just to be clear and on the record about all of it.
Uh, none of it is good.
And that has to be that this can't happen.
We will lose our our voice.
So, like the headline, for example, where did I see this article?
Um, hang on a second.
There's two of them.
And James, where did you get these articles?
Give me the thing.
Anyway, one is on Mediaite.
One American News Network is pulling an about face after the far-right news network seemed to endorse Biden's nominee for the FCC.
Media goes on, Biden had tapped Gigi Sohn, a lawyer, senior staffer of the FCC, as his nominee for FCC.
Uh commissioner, her nomination has been challenged by conservatives concerned by her own past comments about right-wing media outlets, but she received a surprising endorsement last month when owned president.
That's that's what I got right.
That part was right.
Charles Herring published a letter supporting her.
The father apparently is against it.
As an executive of an independent family-owned business, two national networks, one American news network, and AWE, which I've never heard of.
I find myself advocating for more open markets in an environment that is arguably quasi monopoly.
Not a monopoly at all.
Not at all.
You know what?
Go buy CNN.
It's for sale, I hear.
Go buy whatever you want to buy.
Anyway, judging by the framing of the letter, they endorse SOM because they believe her appointment would lead to media market expansion of Own and that they would benefit from it.
Oh, okay.
So we'll support somebody that is on the record as speaking out against conservative voices on the air.
Um pretty pretty unbelievable.
Apparently, I can't believe, according to this one article, and I don't have a source for it.
James, where'd you get this first article?
The headline is own owner.
Where did you get where did you print this one from?
Free Beacon, Washington Free Beacon.
Thank you.
Anyway, the Washington Free Beacon reported Charles Herring lobbied Republican senators to support Sohn's nomination.
Uh book political operative Bradley Blakeman to appear on Own to tout the credentials of this woman.
Uh and fellow right wing TV network newsmax, their words, not mine, both endorsed Soan, hoping that she would support them in their fight against larger carriers.
So they're all looking out for their own interest.
Well, they're not realizing here that if she wants to kill off Fox and she gets this position, talk radio is right behind it.
And so are they pretty dumb position for anybody.
And, you know, shows even conservatives can make bad business decisions on top of everything else.
The best way, if they really want to be successful, they can buy a bigger network.
Or number two, they can build out their network by putting on superior products that people want, and then the marketplace will call for them.
That's how it works in this world.
If you believe in liberty and you believe in freedom.
I was part of a startup.
I was there on day one when Fox News went on the air.
We didn't have any audience when we started, which gave me time to actually learn how to do TV because I was god awful at it.
Linda, how bad was that?
So bad.
It's so humiliating.
I wish you would play the tapes.
No, I think it's kind of fun to look at that.
No, no, no, no, no, no, we're not playing the tapes from third 26 years old.
You just had an anniversary.
Okay.
The answer is N-O-N.
It's humiliating.
It's not humiliating.
Okay.
It actually shows how much you've grown.
My focus group is my kids.
And when my kids go, oh, dad, that's okay.
First of all, that's the worst focus group possible.
No, it's not the worst children's group.
They're honest.
They're honest with their father.
And I'm telling you, no, they're overly critical.
No.
Uh uh.
No, they're not true.
Listen, my kids understand what their dad does.
They kind of understand.
I mean, they don't pay attention to what I do.
They really, they don't.
I don't.
I never brought politics into the house.
I just never did.
And I'm not going to talk about their political views.
I like to keep my my family out of it.
Uh, they don't need, they don't, they don't need the downside of daddy's job.
Um, but the reality is that it's humiliating.
I'm not playing it.
I actually don't think it's humiliating.
Every single year.
You know, somebody told me this year that at some point I'll be the longest serving prime time host in cable news history, surpassing Larry King at some point.
I'm like, what?
I'm like, wow, that's a long time.
I don't know if that's if I survive.
I mean, you know, apparently hosts drop like flies every single day.
Are you planning on on meeting your creator next year?
Is something happening I should be aware of?
No, I'm not planning on on going out into the wilderness yet.
But that's one day that'll come.
I mean, but I, you know, I love doing this every day, but I, you know, I'm looking at all this stuff.
You know, I'm I'm trying to, um, these politicians are trying to feed me garbage about this this one time rule to let the Democrats raise the debt ceiling.
I'm like, because they have to give a specific amount.
They would have to give a specific amount using the reconciliation process.
Manchin is pushing back on Biden's bill.
Now, we're going to get Friday.
We're going to get the CBO score using the Wharton Penn model of eliminating the prospect that they're going to sunset these new laws out of existence.
That never happens.
You don't start government programs and then end them.
That never, that never happens.
Look at Obamacare, example number one.
And it's going to be over $4 trillion.
Now we're also going to get inflation numbers on Friday, too.
My guess is that's going to be a disaster, and we're still going to be at a 30-plus year high.
Joe Manchin is out there saying, you know, he's pumping on the brakes, you know, on this $2 trillion spending bill.
And once he sees the gold standard CBO numbers, my guess is there's a very good shot that Manchin bails.
He's not going to do it.
Manchin said inflation unknown is a bigger problem than the need for Biden's build back better new Green Deal socialism.
He's saying it.
The people of West Virginia do not need this.
Joe Manchin, I would join with him in a heartbeat supporting the energy business in his state of West Virginia.
It is literally the lifeblood of that state's economy.
And I have no idea why he why he's look, maybe he's a classic Democrat, but the pressure on him is probably enormous.
Now you've got AOC now and the Progressive Squad demanding that the Senate Democratic leaders overrule the Senate parliamentarian and include amnesty in the spending bill.
Oh, and progressives in Congress are now backing a four-day work week.
You can't make this up.
I'm not kidding.
Congressional Progressive Caucus endorsed a 32-hour work week that would give employees an extra day off.
How nice that would be.
You know, it's so funny.
I I said this, you know, to my my staff at our little get together for Christmas.
I said, there's a reason I buy my radio team lunch every day.
Well, you think Hannity's a nice guy, right, Linda?
And do I put any restrictions on what people can buy?
None whatsoever, right?
Not at all.
You want sushi?
Get sushi.
You want steak, it's I don't care what you got.
You basically just want the freedom to be able to make fun of whatever we order.
That's basically the only thing.
No, well, you get disgusting green and puke orange, whatever you, you know, sweet.
You're the one eating kale chips now, so you better watch out.
I don't need kel chups.
I don't never get cauliflower popcorn.
Oh, good grief.
Yeah.
And I love pork rinds.
That's my latest thing, too.
Oh, gross.
I love pork runs.
So gross, dude.
And broccoli popcorn is good too.
It's air fried.
It's good.
It's healthier.
I mean, I'm trying.
I'm always I'm always giving it the good old day charge.
And the same with my TV show.
I buy them dinner every night.
Whatever they want.
They want to go get, you know, Italian, Chinese food, uh, steak.
I don't care.
But there's a reason why I do it.
So you don't leave your desk.
I don't leave my desk when I start working every day.
I work, work, work, work, work.
Now we're going to have a four-day work.
32 hours.
What would that mean?
That'd be like I'd be in a never-ending vacation 32 hours a week.
My gosh.
How's that possible?
That's like two days of work for you.
Yeah, pretty much.
Actually, you're right.
That's two days of work for me.
I do a minimum of 16 hours a day.
A minimum.
And I'm not patting myself on my on the back.
I'm a total complete recluse and loser.
Nobody believes me when I say they don't believe me.
You know, just like people don't, you know, some people say, but they don't believe that we've been through the hell we've been through.
Well, I don't have email anymore, Hannah.
I said I can't.
Well, you've gotten out of touch with your roots.
I'm like, no, I haven't.
You haven't lived through what I've lived through.
AOC claiming American workers rely on illegal aliens to survive, demanding amnesty.
Anyway, so they're going through this birdbath bird rule debate.
Uh I won't go into the ins and outs of it, but none of it is good.
Um the Senate is now poised to nullify Biden's vaccine mandate thanks to Joe Manchin.
In other words, Republicans think their resolution is going to pass with at least 52 votes after Joe Manchin and John Tester announced their Support for the proposal.
You know, let's see what Romney and Ben Sass the ass and Lisa Murkowski do.
You know, same cast of characters.
By the way, do you see that Governor Whitmer reportedly called Biden's vaccine mandate a problem, wants to see what the courts decide.
I pointed out that in New York now, this comrade is the dumbest mayor in New York history.
I figured out what De Blasio's doing.
I think he even asked to be on the show.
Should I put him on the show, Linda?
I don't know.
We'll talk about it tomorrow.
I think he now knows he's not going to go down in history as Ed Koch, who's a Democrat.
Ed Koch was a kick-ass mayor.
I didn't agree with everything he did.
But you know what?
The guy the guy was a character.
He really understood You liked him.
I did.
I personally I did like him.
He was a great one.
I didn't like what he did with the city.
No, well, I didn't like no, I didn't say I like that either.
I'm saying, but he but it but he was not like this guy.
You know, there's not gonna be a bridge named after Comrade De Blasio.
It's just not gonna happen.
So now he's desperately in his final weeks.
You know, five-year-olds must get a vaccine or else they can't get into a restaurant.
Private businesses now must vaccine mandates must be a fourth.
Well, we had another federal judge slap down another vaccine mandate.
Uh this happening yesterday, and a federal judge blocked a national COVID vaccine mandate that would have required private government contractors to get their shots.
This is what, number three or number four?
There's four courts now.
Fauci now rightly saying Omicron.
First it was Lambda, Moo, M U, R.2 or 4, whatever the hell that one was.
You know, Delta was the one that was the hardest.
And I keep telling people, I keep saying it.
Mono clonal antibodies, it vaccinated or unvaccinated.
If you get, if you pop positive on a test, call your doctor.
Don't call Dr. Well, you know, you can call me, but I'm gonna tell you to call your doctor.
But Sean, don't you think, don't you think we're at a place right now where we've we've crossed a certain line here where this is supposed to be, you know, medical privacy, HIPAA laws, personal freedoms.
These are choices, freedom, medical privacy, doctor patient confidentiality.
