| You want smart political talk without the meltdowns? | |
| We got you. | |
| I'm Carol Markowitz. | |
| And I'm Mary Catherine Hamm. | |

| We'll keep you informed and entertained without ruining your day. | |
| Join us every Tuesday and Thursday, normally, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. | |
| Day number 144. | |
| 144. | |
| Nobody else in the media seems to mention it. | |
| They've all turned the page. | |
| We won't forget these fellow Americans abandoned behind enemy lines, trapped behind enemy lines. | |
| Joe Biden's, you know, putting a knife in their back, saying, good luck. | |
| See you later. | |
| So sad. | |
| By the way, Joe Biden, I got to give him credit. | |
| He does say he assured Americans yesterday that 2020 is going to be a good year. | |
| 2020 was two years ago. | |
| Somebody in the White House needs to give Rip Van Biden a calendar. | |
| We have the medicines coming along that can save so many lives and dramatically reduce the impact that COVID has had on our country. | |
| There's a lot of reason to be hopeful in 2020. | |
| But for God's sake, please take advantage of what's available. | |
| Yeah, 2020 is going to be a great year. | |
| I mean, there's a lot of reason to be hopeful for 2020. | |
| You know, please take advantage of all that's available. | |
| There's no tests available, Joe. | |
| I mean, this was a fun, not a funny moment, a sad moment where Joe Biden just stares off into space. | |
| A reporter asks, when will Americans get those free COVID tests, sir? | |
| This is the guy that said Donald Trump didn't have enough tests, and that's a travesty. | |
| 220,000 people die. | |
| You should no longer be president. | |
| Okay, 419,000 people died in 2021. | |
| More dead people from COVID-19 in 2021 with three vaccines and monoclonal antibodies that he only mentioned once. | |
| And then since he's mentioned it, apparently the federal government is buying it all up and hoarding it. | |
| God only knows. | |
| We never had a shortage of it until, I guess, Christmas at some point. | |
| No tests available for people. | |
| And what's Joe's answer? | |
| When will Americans get those COVID tests, sir? | |
| He stares blankly ahead. | |
| Probably didn't understand it. | |
| By the way, we'll get to this later. | |
| Jensaki, we have to pass Build Back Broke or better. | |
| They say better. | |
| I say broke. | |
| Build back broke so Americans can find out what's in it. | |
| Just like Nancy Pelosi. | |
| You cannot make this stuff up. | |
| That's how bad. | |
| Now, Joe Biden apparently needs time to think, according to Jen Saki, and they called a lid on his day, you know, early today at 124. | |
| Now, I guess by the time he gets his warm milky at 7 p.m. and gets a night night story, I guess by that point in his little sippy cup, I guess, you know, Joe will have had plenty of time to think. | |
| But while he's thinking, we're losing, on average, when you look at the numbers, over 1,200 COVID deaths a day. | |
| We're now setting a new global record for cases. | |
| We had a report of a million new cases on Monday of this week alone. | |
| And he's, he, what is he doing? | |
| What is he doing all day? | |
| He just spent two weeks on vacation while Americans were, you know, killing each other trying to find a home COVID test or freezing their asses off in states like New York, waiting online for five, six hours just to get a test, if they were lucky enough to even get one. | |
| I mean, it's unbelievable. | |
| How do we ever run out of tests? | |
| That's impossible. | |
| And why is there, you know, why are they rationing monoclonal antibodies? | |
| We never had a shortage of monoclonal antibodies. | |
| All throughout the last year, once we found out from every doctor we interviewed that they actually work, you know, I could find, Linda, how many people we found monoclonal antibodies in Texas. | |
| Even in New York, we found places. | |
| Florida has monoclonal antibody centers all over the state. | |
| And then, of course, once Joe mentions them, then he cuts off Florida. | |
| And Ron DeSantis says, fine, I'll buy my own. | |
| He got his own monoclonal antibodies and they give it to everybody for free, just like they give, you know, everything else for free. | |
| Testing is free. | |
| The vaccines for free. | |
| But monoclonals are the one thing, the one therapeutic that everybody agrees works. | |
| Let's put it this way, and I'm not a doctor. | |
| Check with your doctor. | |
| I say that to everybody. | |
| Well, the last words I said before I went on vacation, monoclonal antibodies. | |
| Remember this name if somebody you love gets COVID. | |
| Why? | |
| Because I care about you and my audience, and most people don't know about it. | |
| I don't want to embarrass the very, very public figure that had a breakthrough case with Delta. | |
| And I called him up. | |
| For example, I called up Governor Abbott when I heard he had a breakthrough case. | |
| I said, Governor, I'm sorry to hear that. | |
| He's a friend of mine. | |
| And a lot of these people I've become friendly with over the years. | |
| And I said, I'm sorry to hear that. | |
| I said, I hope you're considering monoclonal antibodies. | |
| He goes, oh, it's funny you mentioned that. | |
| My infusion begins in 10 minutes. | |
| I was so happy to hear that. | |
| I have another high-profile person who gets a breakthrough case. | |
| I called this person. | |
| I said, are you going to get monoclonals? | |
| He goes, he goes, what's that again? | |
| You know, Regeneron. | |
| He goes, yeah, what is that? | |
| And I'm like, oh, my gosh, remember that, Linda? | |
| And then I realized, nobody, and we talked about it, but we didn't talk about it that extensively. | |
| And I realized I got to really push this because if this person doesn't know what they are, the general public doesn't know. | |
| And I can't tell you, people contact us, this show all the time. | |
| What is that thing that Hannani talks about all the time? | |
| Monoclonal, mana, something. | |
| If you get COVID thing, what's the therapeutic that he says to ask your doctor about? | |
| And then we get calls every day. | |
| And then for the longest time, people have no idea where to find them. | |
| We would spend the time. | |
| I'd take time away from my staff working on this show. | |
| All right, I got this guy in Georgia. | |
| We need to find the nearest monoclonal antibody center in Georgia. | |
| Where is it? | |
| You know, it turned out unvaccinated, 74 years old, comorbidities, 68-year-old wife, comorbidities again. | |
| And where did they go? | |
| We sent them to, I think, Emory University Hospital. | |
| They were giving antidotes as treatment. | |
| We even found places in New York, and we told everybody about it in the New York metro area where you can get them. | |
| And I'm not hiding it from anybody. | |
| It was St. Francis and the Catholic hospitals tended to be more generous in the beginning than places like, you know, just other hospitals would get involved. | |
| NYU Langone, I know, was given them and other hospitals as well. | |
| I'm not going to mention all of them, but then some had particular standards to get it. | |
| There were places that I know that would give it to anybody. | |
| Anybody that had it, they would get the infusion. | |
| But so here we are, and it's a mess. | |
| You know, the guy that said over and over again, I will shut down this virus. | |
| I will shut down this virus. | |
| I will shut down this virus. | |
| There's no federal solution. | |
| He needs time to think, and we don't have enough tests for the American people. | |
| And then we find out from Vanity Fair of all places, they're not members of the vast right-wing conspiracy, but they did a really good investigative report on how the medical community, the scientists, the experts presented a plan back in October of last year to Biden that where they would produce 732 million tests a month leading into the Christmas holidays. | |
| In other words, Christmas, New Year's, Hanukkah, et cetera, where people would tend to group themselves together and there'd be a higher incidence of positive cases. | |
| And they declined to take the tests. | |
| The same guy that was yelling about what a travesty it was that Donald Trump didn't have enough tests available. | |
| You know, don't forget either, you know, I'm going to shut down this virus. | |
| Wow, great job, Joe. | |
| Anyway, six months, remember, it was Independence Day, July 4th, six months since Biden said the U.S. was close to declaring, quote, independence from COVID-19. | |
| And here we have, you know, the highest positive COVID rates ever set. | |
| In 2021, we have more dead Americans from COVID than 2020. | |
| He has screwed this up. | |
| You can't screw it up any worse than this. | |
| You know, we've had tests now available for two years. | |
| There's no need to run out of testing. | |
| You know, it used to be, for example, I would tell people, go to your local CVS, Rite Aid, wherever you happen to get your drugstore, your Walgreens, your Walmart, your Target, wherever they are. | |
| They're selling them everywhere. | |
| And I'd see boxes and boxes and boxes of these Abbott tests. | |
| And then eventually I realized, you know what? | |
| I know so many people that are worried about it. | |
| Let me buy a bunch of them. | |
| I wasn't hoarding them. | |
| There were tons of them. | |
| And I'd buy a bunch of them. | |
| Every time I go to the drugstore, I'd see a huge pile. | |
| I'd get a couple more, get a couple more, get a couple. | |
| And it ended up, I gave them all away because nobody had. | |
| I just happen to be, you know, thinking ahead because I know people ask me all the time about this because they know I talk about it all the time. | |
| By the way, I'd rather talk about other things. | |
| But, you know, right now, people are suffering. | |
| People are scared. | |
| People can't get tested. | |
| People can't get any of the therapeutics. | |
| And all they're still being told is this is the problem of the unvaccinated. | |
| That is just a lie. | |
| It is an outright lie. | |
| People are getting positive tests that are fully vaccinated. | |
| People with fully vaccinated and getting the booster. | |
| I know tons of them over the holidays that tested positive. | |
| I know tons of people fully vaccinated with a booster and natural immunity. | |
| They're getting a second COVID infection. | |
| Now, I'm not telling you this to scare you. | |
| I'm telling you this because you need to know the truth because Joe telling you that it's about the unvaccinated, that's just a lie. | |
| There is a study in the Epoch Times, and I don't think it's been peer-reviewed yet. | |
| We're paying attention to it, like the Israeli study of nearly 800,000 people that showed natural immunity was 27 times better than people that got the vaccine, but that's being peer-reviewed. | |
| I assume this has not been peer-reviewed. | |
| A Danish study of 12,000 households discovered Omicron spreads faster than Delta among those fully vaccinated and even higher between those who received the booster shots. | |
| The headline is in the Epoch Times, Omicron spreads faster than Delta with vaccinated individuals. | |
| You want to know why I have steadfastly refused to play doctor on radio. | |
| Linda, you know why. | |
| I have steadfastly refused to. | |
| People want to know, well, tell us what you decided, Hannity. | |
| What are you doing? | |
| I'm not telling anybody because one, I believe, because everybody was trying to pressure me into talking about myself. | |
| I don't think anyone gives a rip, but I don't want to influence other people's decisions. | |
| I'm not a doctor. | |
| I didn't go to medical school, didn't do an internship, didn't do a fellowship, and I haven't practiced medicine. | |
| But I interview tons of doctors. | |
| So we've accumulated a lot of information and we read an awful lot. | |
| And I don't, and this is an individual choice. | |
| And you get to decide based on your unique medical history, your current condition, your own research, consultation with your doctor, doctors, and then you've got to decide. | |
| By the way, Ron Klain, the chief of staff of Biden, said in 2020, Biden would use his power to reverse COVID-19 testing shortages. | |
| There's no excuse for this. | |
| Six months ago, Biden declared independence from COVID-19. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Oh, mission accomplished, Joe. | |
| The same thing. | |
| Remember the mission accomplished attacks against Trump? | |
| You know, the White House touts a massive COVID-19 test order. | |
| What do you mean you're finally buying the test? | |
| It's too late at this point. | |
| Why didn't you buy them in October when you were presented with a good plan to be ready and prepared for the holidays? | |
| We didn't see this coming. | |
| Why didn't you see it coming? | |
| You knew that there would be another variant after the Delta variant. | |
| There'll be another variant. | |
| There actually is a new one after Omicron variant. | |
| And as we roll along, Sean Hannity Show, 800-941-SEAN. | |
| I will shut down the virus. | |
| Yeah, there's no federal solution. | |
| You know, it's a travesty. | |
| We don't have enough tests. | |
| Well, I take that back too. | |
| Oh, and then Biden, I love this part. | |
| You know, Biden actually says yesterday, if you want to find a test, just go to Google. | |
| Google? | |
| You said it was a travesty. | |
| Trump didn't have enough tests available in the beginning of this. | |
| It's two years plus later. | |
| By the way, I noticed that Whoopee Goldberg apparently was on vacation for some time, and then she got tested before she was about to go back to work at the View. | |
| And she said, I tested positive for coronavirus. | |
| You know, I was, she said she was excited. | |
| They have to test us. | |
| So they sent people to me, to my house. | |
| They tested me, and it was like, you're not coming back. | |
| We're not sending anybody to your house. | |
| You have Corona. | |
| And it was like, wait a minute, what? | |
| I've done everything I was supposed to do. | |
| She actually said that. | |
| She said, you know, she had been fully vaccinated, had the booster, and apparently she says she hadn't even gone anywhere other than her house or done anything. | |
| Now, this is what I've been saying. | |
| Fully vaccinated, fully vaccinated boosters, fully vaccinated boosters, natural immunity. | |
| Everybody's getting this. | |
| I had one doctor say it's as close to being airborne without being airborne as possible. | |
| That's how contagious this thing is. | |
| And, you know, but that's the thing about Omicron. | |
| Now, I actually, I've always had a good relationship with Whoopi Goldberg. | |
| We just hit it off. | |
| I haven't had it on her in a long time. | |
| Used to come on my TV show, and I used to do the view way, way a long time ago. | |
| I wouldn't waste my time today, and I hope she gets well. | |
| But that's the thing about Omicron, and she should be shocked. | |
| Everything that they told us, they've been wrong on. | |
| And now they're even lying about it. | |
| Biden's still saying it's a problem of the unit's a health situation of the unvaccinated. | |
| Wrong, wrong. | |
| That's a lie. | |
| Hey there. | |
| I'm Mary Catherine Ham. | |
| And I'm Carol Markowitz. | |

| I-25 to the top of the arrow. | |
| I will shut down this virus. | |
| No federal solution. | |
| Travesty, we don't have enough tests. | |
| We don't have any hardly anybody can find a test. | |
| You know, no mention of therapeutics. | |
| And then the federal government secretly is buying them all and hoarding them. | |
| And then there's none available for states to buy. | |
| Otherwise, they'd bypass the federal government like they've been doing in Florida, Texas, and all around the country, to be honest. | |
| Joe's on vacation the whole time, on vacation, in the middle of this. | |
| When are people going to get those free tests? | |
| He just stares blankly ahead. | |
| A lid on today at 1.24. | |
| Meanwhile, 1,200 people are dying a day. | |
| Monday, we had a million positive COVID cases reported. | |
| A million. | |
| And I sympathize with Whoopi Goldberg, and I wish her a speedy recovery. | |
| You know, Jen Saki, you know, we have to pass Build Back Better Broke to know what's in it. | |
| So Americans can find out what's in it, then they'll like it better. | |
| And 2020 is a good year, according to Joe. | |
| You can't make this stuff up. | |
| You know, Joe Biden declaring independence from COVID six months ago. | |
| Oh, how did the media react with George W. Bush? | |
| Mission accomplished. | |
| Unbelievable. | |
| It just is not a single thing that Democrats can point to. | |
| Why do you think they're so that all they want to talk about is January 6th, January 6th, January 6th, which, by the way, we said live on the air can't happen in this country while it was happening. | |
| We were live on this program. | |
| And I said it that night on television. | |
| And I have all the transcripts. | |
| You know, it's because what? | |
| They're going to talk about the great COVID success of Biden? | |
| Can't. | |
| They're going to talk about his economic success. | |
| It's a disaster. | |
| 40-year high of inflation. | |
| His disastrous energy policies as he accuses the meat industry of price gouging. | |
| They're not price gouging. | |
| It's costing everybody more to ship everything everywhere. | |
| We're paying more for everything because of Joe's economic and energy policies. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| Imagine if Donald Trump ever said, oh, yeah, if you need a COVID test, just go to one of those Google test sites or Google that. | |
| Imagine if Donald Trump did that. | |
| Could you imagine? | |
| If Donald Trump told you to go to Google to find where you can get a test, you know, Biden's still insisting this is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. | |
| No, it's not. | |
| Follow the science, Joe. | |
| I mean, that's their mantra. | |
| They've lost control of this. | |
| Biden insisting a pandemic of the unvaccinated, even as Omicron is infecting everybody. | |
| Unbelievable. | |
| Things have changed. | |
| White House now embraces a managed, not contained Omicron game plan. | |
| It's unreal. | |
| Americans, the White House touts the massive order of COVID tests. | |
| Why didn't you order them in October when you were given a plan to have them ready for the holidays and the predictable surge that you get during the holidays? | |
| And of course, the CDC changes their recommendations. | |
| They're useless. | |
| The NIH is useless under Fauci. | |
| Omicron is now responsible for 95% of all new COVID-19 cases, according to the CDC. | |
| But who knows, not to put bad news on top of bad news, but there is another variant. | |
| World Health Organization has identified one named out of France. | |
| It's called IHU. | |
| It's a variant nicknamed after researchers at a French hospital somewhere. | |
| And it's called IHU. | |
| Although it is believed that it was formed elsewhere, the world has avoided a twin demic, another pandemic, as the bird flu cases are rising along with COVID. | |
| Experts fear that could change. | |
| I'm not trying to bring bad news to you. | |
| I'm just trying to give you the news. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| You know, there's one in 5% of the population has now just recently been infected in Great Britain. | |
| 5%. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| UK officials are now saying boosters every few months is not sustainable and not necessary. | |
| But the CBC doubles down on their isolation guidelines saying people can take a test if they have access. | |
| Nobody can get the test. | |
| That's the point. | |
| So I don't know about, you know, we had the Lambda variant, the Mu variant, the R.2 variant. | |
| Now we got this other variant that we're watching. | |
| It's very early yet, but we're watching it. | |
| The IHU variant. | |
| Variants here, there, and everywhere. | |
| Saki is pressed on whether at-home tests will be too late given the Omicron surge. | |
| It's already too late. | |
| It's already too late. | |
| Walmart and Kroger had to raise prices for their rapid COVID tests if you can even get them. | |
| Go to Google. | |
| Oh, my gosh. | |
| Go to Google. | |
| What an answer. | |
| What kind of answer is that? | |
| In the last two weeks, we've stood up federal testing sites all over the country. | |
| We're adding more each and every day. | |
| Google, quote, COVID test near me. | |
| Go there. | |
| Google. | |
| Excuse me. | |
| COVID test near me on Google to find the nearest site where you can get a test most often and free. | |
| Most often, everything's free, but you can't find any of these things. | |
| We never had any problems with this until he got involved. | |
| Never mind. | |
| I'm not even going to start with schools right now because I could do a whole hour just on all these people that want to shut down schools, mandate kids. | |
| We don't have a problem with children dying from COVID. | |
| But they want them anyway. | |
| By the way, this poll came in. | |
| West Virginia voters are, you know, Joe Manchin's approval rating was hovering around 52%, and he's now at 59% after he stopped Billbach broke. | |
| You know, and then all the Democrats and the medium I want to talk about is January 6th. | |
| By the way, I've said that day can't happen again, but neither can the riots of 2020. | |
| Where's that committee? | |
| 574 riots, billions of dollars in property damage, arson, and looting, thousands of cops injured, many severely injured, dozens of dead Americans, and no investigation into this. | |
| And Kamala Harris was up to her eyeballs. | |
| They're not going to stop. | |
| They shouldn't stop. | |
| We're not going to stop. | |
| Nobody's going to stop. | |
| And then funding the bail, you know, funding or promoting a bail fund to get the people out. | |
| Biden's disapproval rating now with he gets bad marks on the economy in particular. | |
| 72% of Americans now hitting his handling on inflation, 72% disapproval rate on inflation. | |
| When you look in general, Job as president, his disapproval rating is now 56%. | |
| His handling of the economy disapproval, 60%. | |
| Immigration is disapproval rating, 69%. | |
| COVID, 55% disapproval. | |
| You know, has the president stuck to his campaign promises? | |
| Only 36% say yes in a positive way. | |
| And then, you know, it just gets worse from there. | |
| What has he done? | |
| Ask yourself, what has he done that's successful? | |
| You know, Christy Noam was on last night from South Dakota. | |
| Federal government makes promises they don't follow through on. | |
| They're not going to do what they need to do to make sure that you're getting the opportunity for testing, antibodies, treatments, therapeutics for individuals or families. | |
| You know, these governors now are kind of on their own, and there's a shortage because you got people, you know, now the federal government is buying up all the supply and pushing states out of the way from being independent. | |
| I thought he said it was his words. | |
| There's no federal solution, so get the hell out of the way. | |
| Let the states do it. | |
| I have way more confidence in the governors than this president. | |
| It's unreal. | |
| See, Democrats can't, what are they going to run on? | |
| They're going to run on the economy? | |
| No. | |
| COVID? | |
| No. | |
| Are they going to run on the border? | |
| No. | |
| Inflation 40 year high? | |
| No. | |
| They're going to run on energy? | |
| No. | |
| $1.50 more a gallon. | |
| Everything we purchase costs a lot more money. | |
| By the way, I hate I love pizza. | |
| I've had Little Caesars and all these other chains. | |
| I'm not a big chain pizza guy. | |
| Probably the best of the bunch is Pizza Hut, in my opinion. | |
| Personal pan pizza. | |
| You can get that if you're hungry one day. | |
| Anyway, Little Caesars had to bump up the price of their famous hot and ready pizza above five bucks for the first time in a quarter of a century. | |
| What is he going to yell at little Caesars? | |
| Why? | |
| Because it's costing more for everything that they're, every ingredient they use, and it's costing more to deliver the ingredients to every little Caesars place across the country. | |
| You know, the price of their promotional pie, which first was introduced in 1997, you know, is increasing 11%, costing $5.55. | |
| And they haven't had to do this in 25 years. | |
| Who's paying more for everything? | |
| You are. | |
| The Utah governor had to declare freezing weather propane emergency and blaming federal regulations, and it suspends these regulations, limiting the number of hours that drivers can work because people desperately need the gas to heat their homes. | |
| But Joe has a scapegoat. | |
| He's going after selfish meat companies, not selfish meat companies. | |
| Meat companies have to pay more. | |
| You know, sometimes to get meat fully processed, you know, they're traveling three, four, five times to get it by the time it gets to your butcher or your grocery store. | |
| You know, White House refuses to say whether Biden is engaging with Manchin on Build Back Worse. | |
| The answer is no. | |
| Manchin told us the answer is no. | |
| There are no negotiations going on. | |
| There won't be any negotiations going on. | |
| What part of no does Joe not understand? | |
| Anyway, so he deflates the hopes of changing the filibuster as well. | |
| He made comments yesterday and said that he engaged in talks about possible changes to the filibuster. | |
| In other words, 60 votes so they can do their power grab, rig the election bill. | |
| He said any changes would have to have buy-in of Republicans as well. | |
| He says, I'm not going to do a Democratic alone bill. | |
| So I don't think there's any Republicans, but Republicans have Mitt Romney and Lisa Murkowski to deal with and others. | |
| But he said he's not going forward with it. | |
| I don't know what's going on with AOC. | |
| Give the people what they want. | |
| She shared a bizarre video of her boyfriend's feet. | |
| And what was that all about? | |
| Do you know, Linda? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Double down on the she should have stuck the bartending. | |
| I'm not really understanding why we have to listen to anything this woman says. | |
| Well, she's maskless in a crowded club down in Miami somewhere. | |
| Anyway, claiming Republicans are obsessed with them after she was blasted for going maskless in Miami. | |
| Well, I mean, it's much easier to blast Republicans than to say, hey, I'm sorry that I lied to all of you, and it's not for me, it's for thee. | |
| So you guys wear the mask. | |
| I'm going to go down and have, you know, cocktails on the beach. | |
| I mean, she's just, she's like a walking, oh, she's just, I can't say anything nice. | |
| I'm being quiet. | |
| Like Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi's staff is fleeing as exit rumors persist. | |
| I don't think she's going to be able to survive. | |
| I've been saying. | |
| The woman doesn't know what transitory means. | |
| They ask her, how do you feel about transitory inflation? | |
| Listen, people need to food shop. | |
| What? | |
| Literally, I really don't think she knew what it meant. | |
| I don't think she did. | |
| Listen, I don't think a lot of these people know what they're talking about. | |
| These people have been there too long. | |
| All of them. | |
| And everybody's lost their mind. | |
| I will tell you that part. | |
| You know, one thing that I saw that was during today's daily briefing, Jen Saki was asked if she would, if the president will address Trump's role in the January 6th riot. | |
| By the way, I was in favor of this until they stacked the deck completely, seven Democrats, and they kicked off Jordan and Banks, Jim Jordan, Jim Banks from the committee. | |
| The person they ought to be calling is Nancy Pelosi. | |
| Donald Trump, Mark Meadows, and the Capitol Police Chief all requested the National Guard. | |
| Why did she fail in her duty? | |
| She's in charge of that decision. | |
| And the sergeant of arms, why did she fail in that task? | |
| They knew hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people were coming to town, that they were marching, the tensions were high. | |
| It's a pretty simple formula. | |
| You got to protect our institutions. | |
| I've been saying that since the Obama years. | |
| Where's the committee to look into the 2020 riots, the summer of 2020? | |
| Anyway, yeah, of course they're going to go after. | |
| Well, they can't talk about the disaster that is every policy that Joe Biden has embraced. | |
| Now you got Chuck Schumer comparing the incursion of the Capitol to Pearl Harbor, which launched World War II. | |
| And my dad spent four years in the Pacific, resulting in the deaths of 400,000 Americans, as FDR said on December 7, 1941, a day that will live in infamy. | |
| Now, Schumer's comparing that phrase of Roosevelt. | |
| Unfortunately, we can now add January 6th, 2021 to the shortlist of dates in American history that will live forever in infamy. | |
| I'd like to know where the committee on the riots of the summer of 2020 is. | |
| Where does that come in? | |
| They are mostly peaceful, okay? | |
| When you stand in front of a burning fire and everything's on fire and people are looting and burning and screaming and hurting others, it's mostly peaceful. | |
| It's a new definition. | |
| Well, I would bring in, you know, Kamala Harris. | |
| Why did Kamala Harris support the bail fund? | |
| Why did Kamala Harris say they're not going to stop? | |
| They shouldn't stop. | |
| Thousands of injured cops, billions in property damage, dozens of dead Americans. | |
| Anyway, 800-941 Sean is our number. | |
