	Hour two, Sean Hannity show, 800-941-SEAN is our toll-free telephone number.
	We have spoken at length about prior to the 2020 election, the New York Post comes up with an exclusive, and we have since confirmed, corroborated, all of this was true, about Hunter Biden's laptop.
	And then the mob and the media, the mob and big tech, Basically, would it wouldn't allow the story to even get out there?
	Now it's fully confirmed.
	Oops, sorry.
	What did I say all during the campaign?
	It's Joe Biden's candidate protection program by the media mob and by big tech.
	They did an incredible disservice to the country.
	Miranda Devine has come out with a terrific new book, Laptop from Hell, about zero experience Hunter.
	His foreign business dealings are far more extensive than we even thought and knew up to this point.
	And Joe's involvement is much greater than anybody knew meant, You might remember Joe Biden many occasions saying, Oh no, I I don't know anything about Hunter Biden's uh uh foreign business dealings.
	I've never talked to him about it, not once.
	How many times have you ever spoken to your son about his overseas business dealings?
	I've never spoken to my son about his overseas business.
	I have never discussed with my son or my brother or anyone else.
	Anything having to do with their businesses, period.
	And what I will do is the same thing we did in our administration.
	There'll be an absolute wall between personal and private uh and and the government.
	Do you stand by your statement that you did not discuss any of your son's overseas business dealings?
	I stand by that statement.
	Do you think it was wrong for him to take that position?
	No.
	Knowing that it was really because that company wanted access to you.
	Well, that's not true.
	You're saying things you do not know what you're talking about.
	No one said that.
	Who said that?
	Well, that was a lie.
	Tony Bobolinsky, it's chronicled all throughout the book, actually sat in meetings, two specific meetings, with Joe Biden present as they were talking about dealing with this Chinese energy uh company.
	Uh Bob Olinski revealed that Joe Biden knew all about Hunter Biden's business dealings, and he details one of the hour-long meetings that he had with Joe.
	Let me play that.
	Biden said that he's never discussed business with Hunter.
	That is false.
	I have firsthand knowledge about this because I directly dealt with the Biden family, including Joe Biden.
	I have also heard that Vice President Biden said on Tuesday that Senator Ron Johnson, the chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, should be ashamed for suggesting that Biden family sought to profit from their name.
	Well, here are the facts I know, and everything I'm saying is cooperated by emails, WhatsApp chats, agreements, documents, and other evidence.
	On May 2nd, 2017, the night before Joe Biden was to appear at the Milk in Conference.
	At a proxy and at my approximately hour-long meeting with Joe, that night we discussed the Biden's history, the Biden's family business plans with the Chinese, with which he was plainly familiar, at least at a high level.
	Now, Miranda confirms all of this in her new book, The Laptop from Hell, and joining us now is Miranda Devine, a New York Post columnist, now the author of what is destined to be a top best seller, laptop from hell.
	Uh so he sat in the meetings and he lied to the American people and he got away with it.
	And then when you're when when the when Emma Joe Morris and others at the New York Post first broke this story before the election, it was a total blackout from the media mob and the big tech mob, Miranda.
	It was incredible.
	And look, I think as with uh Watergate and uh all these situations, it's the cover-up that gets you in the end.
	And um you've just played uh one of the most egregious lies in this entire affair from Joe Biden claiming um repeatedly during the campaign um to the American people, a complete untruth, which is that he pretended he knew nothing about his son Hunter Biden's uh overseas uh business dealings, when in fact he knew everything about them.
	He uh met with Hunter's overseas business partners multiple times.
	Uh he met, you know, Mexicans and Ukrainians and Russians and Chinese and Kazakhstanis, and he met them in Beijing.
	He met them at his own home.
	He invited them to his own home and took photos uh in uh in uh the vice presidential residence at the Naval Observatory in Washington.
	He also met them at a dinner at Cafe Milano in Georgetown that Hunter had organized uh for his overseas business associates from Ukraine, uh from Russia and from Kazakhstan.
	So i i for Joe Biden to continue to feign ignorance just is beyond belief.
	And he played Tony Bobelinsky.
	Um he is really the unsung hero in all of this.
	Um he really put his neck on on the line, and he did that because he is a patriot.
	He is a naval veteran from a long line of naval veterans, and uh he's also you know, a a businessman very successful in his own right, which was why he was brought into this sordid uh Biden family business to try and regularize their joint venture with um a company uh called CEFC, which ostensibly was a Chinese energy company.
	What it really was was the capitalist arm of the Communist Party's Belt and Road Initiative, which is their way of uh colonizing the world.
	It's their imperial outreach by President Xi to uh take over the world.
	And that's um uh something that for the last two years of Joe Biden's vice presidency, his family and their partners were working for the Chinese Communist Party in many parts of the world where they were trying to expand China's influence in this Belt and Road initiative.
	And uh uh there's a scene in the book where um Hunter uh is uh banging a a a table in a restaurant in New York and angrily shouting at uh director Zhang, who was the the second in charge of this company C E FC and saying, You owe my family twenty million dollars for the work that we've done you for the past two years.
	Um and uh you know, Tony Bobolinsky just told you about that meeting at the Beverly Hilton on um May 2, 2017.
	Now much has been made about um the fact that Joe Biden was out of office um by that stage, um and he was no longer vice president, and so his supporters and um the people who uh carry water for him in the media um are saying, Oh, well he was a private citizen, he could do whatever.
	Did he register with as a foreign agent with Farrer and comply?
	Well, but apart from that, what Tony Bobelinski has told and what's evident in the laptop and in the m the trove of material that Tony Bobelinski has given well has given us, which is part of this jigsaw puzzle, um, is that for two years, while Joe Biden was vice president, his family with his knowledge was working for the Chinese Communist Party in various countries overseas.
	So they were already doing work.
	The cash wasn't going to come until after Joe Biden left office, because that was part of that plausible deniability that Jim Biden, Joe's brother, told Tony Bobolinsky about when Bobolinsky said to him after that meeting with Joe, um, aren't you worried?
	Isn't your family worried that this is going to come back and bite you, that this is going to damage any future presidential prospects?
	Plausible deniability.
	Plausible deniability is what Jim Biden said very knowingly.
	You know, and we know that's a sort of term of art coined by the CIA during the Kennedy administration, and it just describes a way of keeping the president sort of um away from the details of an unsavory activity so that he can plausibly deny that he doesn't know anything.
	Um but uh you know, that what Bobelinski understood that Uncle Jim meant by that was that Joe Biden knew exactly what his family was doing in his name, and that's proven by his multiple meetings with all these various business partners, but he was insulated from the dirty details.
	And uh in fact, Jim and Hunter Biden both instructed Tony Bobolinsky um the night before the meeting to keep his talk with Joe Biden at a high level, meaning don't go into details.
	Um and um Tony Bobolinsky met Joe Biden twice, and the reason he met him was because Joe Biden was vetting Bobolinsky for this very crucial role as the CEO of this new uh company which was a joint venture between the Bidens uh and the CFC company.
	Let me let me in a backdoor way ask you about Joe Biden's foreign policy decisions, ignoring you know, the aggressive maneuvers of China against Taiwan and and fighter jets flying over Taiwan airspace and then we got push uh Putin now uh building up an army on the Ukrainian border again, reminiscent of Crimea.
	Um let me ask you this question.
	The Libyans came out with a Hunter Biden dossier, and they knew everything about Hunter.
	They knew Hunter was a drug addict, they knew that Hunter uh apparently frequented prostitutes, hookers, whatever you want to call them.
	Um there's a lot of this on the laptop.
	There's the pictures of of Hunter asleep with a crack pipe in his mouth, for example.
	Uh there's pornography, him with numerous women in bed together.
	Is that all correct?
	And now my um if the Libyans had a dossier that had Hunter Biden completely compromised and Hunter's doing business with these countries, I've got to believe they've got compromising materials on the Biden family, to quote the great Adam Schiff.
	And my question is, you know, is it a fair question based on the discovery of all of these connections financially with hostile regimes like China and Russia?
	Does uh is that a plausible reason why Joe won't stand up to Putin with the troop build-up uh near Ukraine?
	Is it possible why he's not taking charge over and defending Taiwan against hostile Chinese aggression and talk of reunification?
	Well, you just you have to uh i i just accept the fact that that is a genuine possibility, and um I I think we'd be crazy not to encompass that and understand that because um Joe Biden by his actions um has has just obviously is not respected by uh President Xi.
	I mean, he he used to talk at great length about what great friends they were and how many hours they'd spent together and that he'd spent more time with President Xi than anybody else, and that they were old friends.
	I mean, recently he's changed.
	And by the way, any American that goes to China, they're being spied on every second they're there.
	Is that a fairly Oh, absolutely.
	I mean, if you take a device there, expect that it's going to be hacked and you're going to be spied on.
	Um but Joe Biden very early in his Senate career was uh groomed by the Chinese.
	I mean, he was one of the first senators brought to China and Dutchessed equivalent of sort of the Martha's Vineyard or the Nantucket of China uh by high ranking CCP officials.
	And in fact, he when he came back to America, he was um just uh like teased and mocked mercilessly by the weekly standard because he was so incredibly sycophantic about China.
	And um he also, you know, using he had a lot Of power and influence with his committee chairmanships in the Senate.
	And uh when China wanted to join the World Trade Organization, um Joe Biden was instrumental in convincing wavering senators on his own side.
	This was during the Clinton administration to uh ensure that China did join the World Trade Organization.
	And of course, that was the death knell for American manufacturing that really was the watershed uh that that led to the hollowing out of the heartland of America and the loss of jobs and the great tragedy that has befallen America and uh lost of uh you know, money and prestige and China uh rising.
	So um Joe Biden has been uh in the tank for China for many decades, and now we have this situation where his family has received tens of millions of dollars uh at least.
	I mean, that we can account for uh from the Chinese uh Communist Party.
	And uh also where Hunter Biden had 10% or still has, uh we can see it's on on the Chinese stock market.
	Um his company Skinatal Leeds has 10% still of this Chinese indication fund that uh the documents on the laptop showed in 2019 had 2.5 billion dollars worth of funds under management.
	And so when you look at Joe Biden now, he's had four meetings since he's been president uh virtually with President Xi.
	The most recent one went for hours, and uh within hours of that meeting, um President Z had sent warplanes over Taiwan.
	I mean, that shows how little respect he has for Joe Biden.
	And not only that, in those four meetings, the president has not mentioned Wuhan once.
	I'm gonna have to run, but I want everybody to get a copy of this book because it's just we're only touching the surface in terms of the what's on this laptop and and a terrific deep dive by Miranda Devine.
	It's called the Laptop from Hell, and we really appreciate you uh working so hard on it and sharing it with our audience, Miranda.
	It's been a long time and and coming.
	Thank you.
	Thank you so much, Sean Brian.
	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.
	I'm Evan Ratliff, and together with biographer Walter Isaacson, we're delving into the story of Nobel Prize winner Jennifer Dowdna, the woman who's helped change the trajectory of humanity.
	Listen to Aunt Crisper, the story of Jennifer Dowdner with Walter Isaacson on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
	Hey there.
	I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.

	We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.

	You're our kind of people.

	We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
	Sir Dell, a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
	All right, 25 now till the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean, our number.
	You want to be a part of this extravaganza.
	You know, it's amazing.
	We're gonna get we're gonna get to some poll numbers here in a minute.
	Forty-five percent of American families say they're experiencing financial hardship due to the Biden inflation crisis.
	Oh, you know, oh, it's the tragedy of the treadmill, uh, Gensaki.
	Oh, you m you made go shopping before Halloween if you want to get your kids not disappoint your kids over Christmas.
	You know, we have disastrous job numbers, and Biden is out there saying, What a dramatic improvement.
	Uh no, two hundred and ten thousand jobs is an unmitigated disaster in light of where the economy should be.
	And as his job growth collapses, Canada's announcing stellar job growth just as a comparison.
	The labor department issues another disastrous report as Biden claims that we're in the best economy ever.
	No, we're not.
	You know, and and it's getting so insulting on almost a daily basis.
	Now every every single person that fills up a car, you know what you're paying.
	A buck fifty more a gallon, twenty, twenty-five, thirty bucks more every time you fill up.
	You know it's costing you a fortune more to heat your home this winter.
	You know every product you buy in every store you're paying more for it costs more to get it there.
	These are, you know, I don't care if it's Afghanistan, the border, the COVID disaster, three vaccines and monoclonal antibodies, and and Joe still can't get it uh right.
	Um and then of course then we've got the economy, inflation, the high cost of energy, eliminating energy independence, but Joe Biden downplays, oh, they're they're not empty shelves.
	Go back, look at the shelves again.
	I've seen the empty shelves.
	What do you think these TV stations are are emptying the shelves and and putting up false pictures?
	It's unreal.
	Listen.
	I convened a group of CEOs from some of the largest retailers and grocery stores, as well as leading companies that work s with small businesses across the country.
	And they reported that their investments are up, shelves are well stocked.
	And they're ready to meet consumer demand for the holidays.
	I said that yesterday, and then I saw a couple of your stations put on you found some empty shelves.
	They're old empty shelves, but it doesn't matter.
	But go back and take a look at some of those shelves again.
	Okay.
	But the the point is with the vast majority of the shelves are filled, and the CEOs of not only the the the suppliers, but it's the CEOs of UPS and FedEx, which are on track to deliver more packages than ever.
	So we're heading into holiday season in strong shape.
	By the way, I'm not a doctor.
	That's Joe Biden.
	Did it sound like Joe Biden?
	Didn't sound like Joe Biden to me.
	Um I've also been somebody that has been out on the road.
	And when I'm out, you know, on a when I've been out on book tours for examples, what usually happens is your vocal cords get inflamed.
	When your vocal cords get inflamed, now singers do this, you might not know it if they have multiple dates back to back to back.
	Usually a strong anti-inflammatory that that reduces the inflammation in your vocal cords is something called prednisone.
	It's the worst medicine ever.
	You get hungry, you get bloated, you you just get flush in the face, you can't sleep.
	I know because sometimes I'd have to do radio three hours, TV an hour, hour and a half speech, three hour book signing, fly to another city and do the whole thing the next five days.
	And sometimes I to help my vocal cords, I'd use it.
	That does not sound like a cold to me.
	I'm not playing doctor, I'm not making accusations.
	It sounds more to me like some type of medicine.
	But what do I know?
	I'm just a dopey ho talk show host.
	Uh anyway, there are now we have the Trafalgar group out with their latest approval rating on uh but anyway, the latest survey, Trafalgar, uh has Joe Biden at a thirty-six percent approval rating.
	That's it.
	Only eighteen percent strongly approve.
	Only and another eighteen percent um, you know, approve, but not not enthusiastically.
	There's fifty-two percent strongly disapproving.
	Another seven percent that disapprove.
	I mean, it is an unmitigated disaster for any politician.
	Now the fourth poll to have him uh in the mid-thirties in terms of an approval rating.
	And, you know, for example, if you look at E Kamala Harris, she's even worse at twenty-eight percent.
	Anyway, we welcome back our polsters.
	Uh Robert Cahale's with Trafalgar.
	Uh Matt Tower is uh back with us as well.
	Matt uh, of course, with insider advantage, his poll numbers are showing exactly the same thing as Robert's.
	Uh Robert, how do you interpret this latest survey?
	And you've also, I guess, uh have been polling out in Nevada and uh apparently some good news is out there and available as it relates to lax salts run for the Senate.
	Yes, uh Sean, it is amazing.
	Uh this this uh poll was uh conducted on the the nationwide about an approval happened right after the uh Amicon uh variant stuff Started on the Friday.
	I think this was that Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
	And so it it reflects people's kind of, you know, this is the guy who was going to fix everything and uh more trouble coming with COVID.
	And the in Nevada, uh Laxalt actually has uh has a little lead at uh 44.1 to 40 point nine uh versus the incumbent and uh with an undecided of only fifteen, and uh that's that's pretty significant to have that type of lead this early.
	But uh Nevada's uh trending very strongly.
	Uh the uh uh President Trump would beat either Harris or um or Biden uh by about 10 points uh right now in Nevada.
	I'm looking at the Senate races, Matt Tower.
	You got Florida, you've got Georgia, Herschel Walker, who I like a lot.
	Uh you got North Carolina, that is yet to be determined.
	Uh then we got I know Tim Scott will do well in South Carolina.
	We don't know who's running in New Hampshire.
	I I think the president of the Senate is the l leading emerging candidate.
	Now the Governor Sununu said no.
	I'm hoping Ron Johnson runs again in Wisconsin.
	Uh then we have Ohio, Pennsylvania, where Dr. Oz announced he's running, um, and he's got a very high name recognition rate.
	I saw some polls on him, 94%, a very high number of of women that love Dr. Oz.
	I guess they've been watching him on TV for years.
	Um, and then this Nevada poll, and then we got Arizona.
	I happen to like Bernovich, the attorney general.
	Matt, your thoughts on this bellwether Senate year that's coming up, and well, we'll be voting in less than a year.
	Well, it's looking better and better for the Republicans.
	Um, I was very impressed with Dr. Oz in the interview you had with him the other night.
	He is ready to run very up to speed on his talking points and was very impressive.
	I think he's going to be a very strong candidate in Pennsylvania.
	Herschel's going to be a strong candidate in in uh Georgia.
	Uh I I think the Republicans have a great opportunity uh right now.
	I do want to say one quick thing about the polling that Robert had.
	I want to give Robert a true compliment.
	I've said on this uh show many times that I thought that Biden's real approval rating was somewhere in the uh upper 30s, like 38 or so, and Robert nailed it.
	But but here's what I found today.
	I looked at the polling that we see from the I'll call them the drive-by pollsters.
	And those drive-by pollsters uh who are the uh the usual culprits uh now are trying to have Biden back up, you know, where he's only six points down, four points down.
	That is humanly impossible right now.
	It is impossible for Joe Biden to be to have just a four percent difference between his approval and his disapproval rating.
	So Robert has nailed it, and I don't know what's going on with the rest of the polling universe, but you can't pay any attention to it.
	So as we look at these numbers coming in, there's not a single policy that I can name or identify that is working for Joe and Kamala Harris.
	And you know, at the end of the day, Robert Kohalley now Joe has doubled down on his new green deal, build back better, you know, redistribution Marxism, uh radicalism, and now he's doubled down on blaming the energy companies and begging OPEC as an energy policy when all he would have to do is ask Texas and reinstate the policies that that made us energy independent under Donald Trump, and I don't see any indication he'd ever do that.
	You'd think at some point he would start uh to worry about whether he he was doing a good job and people perceived him as doing a good job.
	Uh it it seems scary that he he doesn't.
	Literally, the guy could have just gone to Camp David, done nothing and left all the other policies in place and be at like 60% approval right now.
	So I maybe he didn't care whether he has approval, or maybe he gives approval from a few Washington elite, including some of the Washington group or pollsters that keep putting this trash out there that show show this approval rating anywhere close to even because it's just not.
	Listen, uh Matt Tower is uh I look at this.
	The only possible answer if the Joe Biden wanted to dig himself out of this holy send, he'd have to change course.
	He's not going to change course.
	He's he's been a disaster on COVID, a disaster on the economy, a disaster on energy on the borders on uh foreign policy.
	I can't think of a single thing that he's done well.
	And I see that, you know, even Joe Manchin now is teamed up with Republicans to fight the vaccine mandate.
	That's a that's a big loss for them.
	And I bet once the CBO Scores this built back better new Green Deal socialism madness, probably Joe Mancham is going to be a no on that also.
	Well, we have a new theme uh that that is emerging, and you're going to hear it and and the pollsters uh advisor candidates correctly, they're going to use it over and over again.
	The concept is liberty.
	Now, sometimes that sounds trite, and sometimes it's like we're hearkening back to colonial days and the like, but in in in reality, the revolution.
	But the truth is liberty is what Americans are yearning for right now.
	That's why you see Joe Manchin moving over to oppose these mandates.
	That's why you see these can't these these um polls in these states going against the Democrats so strongly because they played they overplayed their hand it with with with the power of government in the last year to the point that Americans now are yearning for liberty.
	And let me tell you, Sean, it's getting down to the millennials now, it's getting into African American voters, it's getting into Hispanics.
	This is a change that if the Republicans play it right, they're going to have an opportunity to reset the clock and get this thing turned around uh in this next election cycle.
	Oh, I don't see how.
	Now you see a lot of Democrats in the House, they they see the handwritings on the wall.
	I think we're now up to nineteen or twenty Democrats in the House.
	They don't want any part of the the sh the disaster that will become an electoral you know, tsunami next year.
	Um the only issue that I could see outstanding that I I believe the Democrats would would demagogue, as they do every year, they only have one playbook would be this abortion decision.
	Um and for example, if the court were to overrule Roe, which is bad law, which bestowed a right that is not within the Constitution, that would be the legal argument.
	But on the other hand, if they change the viability weeks from twenty-three to fifteen, I'm sure that you know the the Democrats would try to make that the entire campaign.
	Would it work, Robert Cahaley?
	You know, i it would certainly uh I mean, in some ways, this this is a good uh a good development for the pro-life community with very bad timing.
	Uh I I would much rather see a ruling like this happen when the Republicans had at least one chamber of Congress so they could block uh what could result in a packing of the court, and that's my fear there is is they would use it to motivate uh a great deal of uh opposition and uh try to push through a court packing scheme.
	Uh i but uh it it i it is something they would they will attempt to demagogue and both sides care very you know very passionate about this issue.
	So I mean it it it it is it is a possible thing that could derail what's happening.
	Uh and because these all around what what Matt was talking about is really important that you know these millennials uh stuff have always been so pro-government when it came to everything else.
	All of a sudden when government started telling them to wear a mask and vaccinate and uh you know do all the stuff for uh that either they weren't worried about, they started to feel that the the oppressive uh hand of government they didn't like it very much.
	And so we'd have to keep the debate on abortion the same i in the same perspective of this is uh representing liberty and and protection of life at at all stages.
	Yeah, your take on it, Matt Towery.
	Well, let me put my lawyer's hat on for a minute because uh I am one still.
	Um Robert, I'm not sure.
	I'm so I'm sorry to he I'm sorry to hear that, but go ahead.
	That's all right, Andy.
	It comes in handy every once in a while.
	Uh but but but the truth being, Robert is completely like uh correct politically.
	What I found interesting in the oral arguments the other day before the Supreme Court is that the proponents of Roe v.
	Wade, a preserving Roe v.
	Wade were asked by um uh the court what principle they're relying on now.
	Now it used to be privacy.
	Remember that was sort of invented that the whole thought as being the reason why Roe Roe was actually instituted in the first place.
	Now they say it's quote liberty.
	Isn't that amazing?
	They're using the very issue that I told you the Republicans can run on and win, and they're trying to use that as an argument before the Supreme Court as to why you preserve Roe v.
	Wade.
	Well, is that liberty gonna extend to vaccine mandates?
	Is that liberty gonna extend?
	I mean, now we can turn it around on them.
	That's the question.
	It's no, it's it's only liberty when convenient.
	Exactly.
	And Justice Thomas was really without getting into he didn't bring in the current use because you don't want to do that as the court.
	Very clearly, he was putting them on the spot.
