Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
Well, we got a big show for you today.
Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
It's that week where everybody is on vacation.
Every show, TV, radio, every host, everything you turn on.
Everybody's away.
You get a guest host.
But so what am I doing here?
I should be away too.
But uh we got a lot to talk about.
It's gonna be a big night tonight.
At 8 o'clock, Joe Biden launches Operation Change the Subject.
He's gonna make this awful speech tonight, which is going to be so divisive.
You remember when he um ran the big campaign promise was that he would unite everybody and heal us and bring us together as a nation.
Well, that was just to run.
Now he's dividing us like crazy.
Uh so we'll talk about that.
We'll get to uh the Mar-a-Lago raid.
We'll get to the horrible uh FBI picture uh that they staged.
We'll get to uh the problem with the uh shutting down all the schools, lots to get to.
We'll get to Dr. Oz and more.
Uh normally I'm here on uh our local big flagship station in New York, W O R. Uh and uh it's great to be here for Sean today.
So here's the problem.
Uh January 6th, those hearings, you remember prime time, all the different hearings, all the different it didn't work.
It just didn't take.
They've uh quietly studied this behind the scenes Democrats.
It just didn't take.
It didn't work, it didn't have any effect.
So uh that's why the Mar-a-Lago raid, that's why all this new stuff.
Hey, by the way, I just want you to think about this.
The FBI has a rule that they'll never do a raid or anything like that that could affect an election within 90 days of any election.
That's their rule.
They don't do anything like that within 90 days of an election.
The raid took place 91 days from the election.
That can't be a coincidence.
So that's the reason for the raid.
Now you saw uh Joe Biden go to Pennsylvania.
Uh he went there yesterday or the day before, and he's there today.
He's gonna do the speech.
And in the Pennsylvania speech, he's getting more and more divisive, your MAGA ultra, what did he call you your bunch of uh whipped semi-fascists?
How do you be a semi-fascist?
You can't be a semi-fascist.
Talk about an oxymoron, but uh he's calling everybody names uh MAGA's gonna destroy the country.
So tonight at 8 o'clock, a big prime time speech.
He's gonna address the nation.
He's not gonna talk about anything important like out-of-control crime, inflation, any of that.
So I don't know why the networks are just handing him this TV time to just do a uh campaign election tampering speech, but he's apparently gonna really go after Republicans.
This is the preview here.
MAGA Republicans, an extreme threat to democracy and the rule of law.
Uh he's gonna continue these attacks.
He'll take dire take direct aim at the Republican Party at Donald Trump.
It's not clear whether he'll mention Trump by name, but he's really gonna go after him.
He's gonna say that MAGA, MAGA, they just don't respect the rule of law.
They're pursuing an agenda that takes away people's rights.
Now he's gonna say that you're extreme, extreme, extreme fascists.
This is the guy that wants to defund the police that created the biggest crime wave ever.
This is the guy that has open borders.
This is the guy that wants to tell you what you're allowed to drive, where you're allowed to go, what you're so it's gonna be a horrible speech tonight, very negative.
There's a big chance this could totally backfire.
You remember Jimmy Carter went on TV in the middle of uh bad period in America and made the famous what they call the Malays speech, where he talked about this malaise that was uh destroying America, and it was so negative, it just wiped out Carter or any chance of re-election.
It was horrible.
So this could happen tonight.
This whole thing could backfire.
Uh the purpose of all this, it's it's what they call operation change the subject.
They don't want you focused on the price at the gas pump.
They don't want you focused on uh inflation when you go to the supermarket.
They don't want you focused on a crime out of control everywhere in every city and spreading into the suburbs, even into the rural areas.
The other thing Biden may do tonight, he did this uh Tuesday when he when he's in Pennsylvania, he does two things in a speech.
He starts yelling all of this uh ridiculous over-the-top divisive uh stuff, and then he starts telling you these rambling stories about nothing.
You know, the guy's in uh politics forty-seven years he should have like a bunch of great stories saved up.
I mean, really great tight stories with a punchline.
He tells you these rambling stories where you can't figure out what he's talking about.
You know, when he does this uh, my father said Joey, Joey, always all these quotes of his father.
I don't even think he had a father.
He makes everything up.
I mean, listen, try to follow why he's even telling you this story about take a listen to this one here.
The place where I used to was the only white guy that worked as a lifeguard down in that area in the east side.
And you know where the you can always tell where the best basketball in the state is, and the best basketball in the city is.
It's where everybody shows up.
I have two shotguns at home, my cat.
It's a long story, but I'm not opposed to guns.
Right now you can't go out and buy an automatic weapon.
You can't go out and buy a cannon.
By the way, how many my dad used to love to hunt, the poconos when we lived in Scranton.
How many deer bear wearing Kevlar vests?
Huh?
Not a joke.
This is all for one speech.
Okay, the first part, uh, what was that about?
Uh something black people basketball something.
He's trying to convince you that nobody is more in tune with the black community than this man.
Nobody uh has a better feel for it than this guy.
Uh and he tells you these stories about he fought corn pop and bad bad Leroy Brown and whoever he beat up and uh it's the other part there.
Joey, he goes into this whole Joey, my father, we were hunting and scrant.
You know, he tells you these stories about his father and him.
They're sitting around the kitchen table, how they're gonna pay the bills.
You know, he wrote an autobiography years ago.
If you read this book, uh they lived in in Garden City, Long Island, which is one of the most expensive plush suburbs.
His father owned an airport.
So I don't know where all this Scranton stuff comes from.
Apparently he did live there for a little while.
But uh, and then the whole thing about the AR-15, that was part of the Big Tuesday speech.
This is what uh Democrats always do.
They they come up with a gimmicky thing that seems like it's gonna do something, but it never addresses the underlying problem.
So he's the idea of the speech was gun violence, all the gun violence in America.
And he's talking about AR-15s, which is 0.003% of gun violence in America, 99.9% of the gun violence is handguns all over our city streets.
It's happening in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, all our cities.
That's where 99% of the shootings have taken place.
So this dumb AR-15, whatever he's talking about, does not address the underlying problem.
And that's what Democrats do.
We got a terrible crime wave in New York.
It's out of control.
We're like Chicago now with 40, 50 shootings every week, and it's horrible.
So what did the mayor do?
The Democratic mayor of New York, he announced Times Square is now a gun-free zone.
That's it.
It's a gun-free zone.
He offered no possible way of enforcing this.
There's no enforcement of any kind.
But it's a democratic solution.
Sounds good.
It's gimmicky, symbolic, but it doesn't do anything about the underlying problem.
So watch for that speech tonight.
I don't know if he'll mention Donald Trump by name.
Uh, the latest on the raid is I don't know, you talk, listen to half these legal analysts, definitely going to be indicted.
You listen to the other half.
There's no possible indictment here.
There's nothing to indict him for.
Uh the fact that they took those documents, and if you look at the covers of the documents, top secret, classified, top secret.
Uh, if you talk to people in the White House that work there and see these documents all the time, they'll always point out to you that 85% of them, there's nothing that's secret in there.
They just overclassify, they overlabel stuff.
So in 85% of the cases, there's nothing that secret in there.
Uh, but they took the documents and they threw them all over the floor and took that picture which they released.
Trump is furious.
I think he's more furious about that picture than the raid, because the picture makes it look like he's a slob and he's not.
He's uh he's very neat usually.
Doesn't throw uh documents all over the floor.
Uh they did find the claiming they found three of these top secret documents in his desk drawer, which kind of means you can't really charge the guy with obstruction because uh if you're raiding somebody's place, their office, first thing you do is open the desk drawer.
So obviously he wasn't trying to hide anything, and I just wouldn't think that many people have access to his desk.
So I don't know where this goes.
They want the uh special master, they're having uh uh hearing today on whether to get this special master.
Uh we'll see where this goes.
I don't know.
You know, here's the problem.
I know all your Trump hating friends, every Trump hater you know, they're screaming, this time he's gonna get indicted.
This time we got him.
This time we well, just remember, this is 47 this times, and they never got him once from Muller to Comey to remember the remember the Stormy Daniels.
Remember he was gonna get arrested for Stormy Daniels?
What was that?
Uh what did he do with Stormy James?
Oh, it was remember he wrote a check to her.
There was a check, and he was gonna get arrested because he laundered the money.
Remember uh what was that lawyer's name?
Avenati.
Trump was definitely gonna get indicted.
That was it.
There's four thousand things he was gonna get indicted for.
Ukraine, this impeachment, that impeachment, uh Vinman, all this stuff.
So uh I don't know if you're Trump haters out there.
Why do you do this to yourself?
You get yourselves all worked up about this, and then nothing ever happens.
And uh this is their whole thing for six years now.
He's they try to convince he's a criminal, then they try to convince him he's a spy, then he's a criminal, then he says uh just give up.
It's not gonna anyway.
We'll take some calls in a minute.
Uh Steve Moore will be with us at the bottom of the hour, one of the top economists in the world.
We'll go over uh what's gonna happen with inflation and gas prices and all of that.
Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Hey, uh if you want to see what it looks like in the studio right now, we just put a picture up on my Instagram, Mark Simone, NYC at Instagram.
Follow me on Truth Social.
I tell you to follow me on Twitter, but they'll just delete you anyway.
Uh and don't forget Hannity.com.
Great stuff there.
We'll take some calls in just a moment.
Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Music.
I'm out.
Six hundred and seventy-five stations all across America.
And we can't thank you enough for being here every day to make that possible.
on the Sean Hannity Show.
Music Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
So uh as I said, there's a hearing going on right now about appointing a special master to take a look at all the uh documents in the raid.
Uh apparently the judge just ruled that he's gonna delay it.
He's afraid to make a ruling, so they're gonna delay that.
It'll be another time.
Biden to make that big abrasive uh uh awful speech tonight, and apparently Kevin McCarthy will do a rebuttal speech right afterwards, uh demanding an apology from Biden for attacking half of America.
Uh Linda, the producer of the show, Linda, are you there?
I am here.
Uh eight o'clock tonight.
Will you be watching?
I don't think I'll not.
I don't think I will.
I will I will try to do everything I can to stay as far away as possible.
I don't want to get he makes me confused, just hearing him talk is confusing.
Well, they said he's gonna talk about f saving the soul of America.
This guy can't even find the podium.
How's he gonna save the soul of the thing?
He's gonna shake hands.
He's gonna shake hands with his soul.
Yeah, he's just shaking hands with air all the time.
I mean confused, weirdo.
Can you imagine you're in politics 47 years, you can't figure out how to shake hands?
Well, it's 48 now, right?
48 years.
How sad is that?
And what's going on in Pennsylvania?
I I I know these polls make it look like Oz has no chance.
I think he's got a pretty good chance.
First of all, I was just saying this to our friend Jeff Lloyd the other day.
We were talking about it.
And the race is very tight.
The problem is, like so many of these races, there is a ton of outside money pouring into the state from all of you know the big blue donors that like to control and make sure that the Senate seats are allocated to the people that they can control themselves.
So you've got all the Fetterman types, you know, saying, okay, well, he's weak, he's factless, we can tell him what to do.
If Oz gets in there, we're gonna have a Trump situation, right?
And it's not even that, you know, even if Trump hadn't endorsed Oz, it's just that he's not a Democrat and he can't roll over.
So the the race is very tight right now.
It's like a three or four point spread, depending on where you look.
And I think uh if you look around the state, like there's no Fetterman signs.
It's kind of like if you ever looked for anybody wearing that build back better hat.
Like nobody's wearing that hat.
Nobody.
Yeah.
Now these all these polls you're seeing, these public polls where everybody's way behind.
These are rigged polls.
They always do this in August.
Uh they're called suppression polls.
The main point of them is to uh demoralize and to dry up money to make sure that uh the Republican candidates the donors run so they're afraid to give to Lee Zeldon they don't think he'll win but don't worry he will if you unrig the poles he's got a really good shot uh and if you're out of state and you want to donate donate to Lee Zeldon in New York you can use the money.
We need 'em.
Yeah.
He's uh yeah if you're not here in New York, uh gunfire everywhere.
People are getting shots.
Did you see that report last night?
Twenty five year old woman shot on 14th Street.
Yeah that's grammarcy.
Grammarcy Park, one of the nicest neighborhoods in New York.
Uh but we don't know about that case he just came out of nowhere and shot her.
So uh yeah I mean obviously everything is you know left to be investigated further by the underpaid and completely defunded police because you know Bragg and Adams and Hokel could care less about them.
But at the end of the day, I think that we're just seeing this uptick.
I mean just walking into the studio walking around Rockefeller Center if you go down by the Trade Center.
I mean it it the city has changed dramatically in the last year.
Dangerous everywhere and we have this lunatic district attorney one of these George Soros district attorneys the first day in office he put out a big memo nobody goes to jail don't put anybody in jail no jail sentences the only guy ever sent to jail is Alan Weiselberg the Trump CFO.
This is that's why it was breaking news dangerous man.
That was the breaking news that Alvin Bragg actually sent somebody to jail this guy in his numbers they gotta go away forever.
That guy with the gun, this guy's crackhead, the guy who attacked Jose Alba they're okay nobody goes away now you're saying well Alvin uh Weiselberg how could he survive at Rikers Island?
He probably the only one there.
Nobody goes to jail probably all alone there.
Uh but uh we wish him the best hey Sarah Palin lost in Alaska they keep making a big thing out of this.
Did you know that that was that ranked choice voting well that's the whole thing.
There's a there's a Alaska's voting is different than any other part of the United States.
I mean literally a completely different animal entirely.
Yeah they use that stupid rank ch choice voting it's a way of cheating.
So in other words somebody comes in third place and they won.
So I don't know how they figure that out but yeah it's it's it's like they've got their own electoral college, you know, kind of like they're finagling the numbers to make it work for them there on the inside.
And again it's control.
It's like who can we get over on?
Oh that person thinks to independently we don't want them in office.
Yeah so all right we'll talk about checking with Linda again later.
We'll take some calls uh 800 nine four one Sean is the number and uh what's gonna happen with this crazy inflation and gas prices and uh uh the economy and uh well we'll talk to the uh best economist around Steve Moore uh we'll we'll get him to explain the future of all this to us.
Coming up Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Well Mark Simone here for uh Sean Hannity now you got the best economists in the world who are the greatest economists on earth definitely uh uh Art Laffer Larry Cudlow and Steve Moore now you've got to get his latest book Govzilla you'll love this book Govzilla hey also you can get the best daily briefing every day you can go sign up it's free it'll come right to you uh your email every day it's the Committee to Unleash Prosperity uh Steve Moore has this great newsletter just go to committee to unleash prosperity dot com.
Steve Moore, how you doing?
Hey Mark I'm doing well and I've been chopping at the bit to talk to you because I am right now in California.
I'm in San Diego and and I don't know if you're following what's going on out here.
But it's almost it's almost comical.
So remember five days ago they uh the governor said every car that is sold and purchased and brought into California has to be an electric vehicle and then and now they're rationing electricity because they're running out of electric power.
And so they're telling people you can you know what what what temperature you can set set your thermostat at and so I mean can you imagine what's going to happen when everybody has electric cars and they start taking away the electric power people are going to be shalling out in the middle of the highway.
I mean you cannot make up how stupid the left is on the screen undersea stuff.
Unbelievable.
So you're out in California looking for a house you're thinking of moving there no I don't think so but it it is you know they have a heat wave here so they're telling people you know uh keep your thermostat at 78 degrees.
I'm not making the stuff up yeah they're saying you know well you know we we have to ration electricity we can't we can't run out of it you know and and of course they have they've closed down the they're closing down their last nuclear power plant they're not using coal they're not using natural gas they're trying to run their their state on windmills and solar power you know and it's not Working.
And this is what they have in store for the rest of the country, folks.
Well I mean, this is where this is where they want to take us.
You know, we're gonna have to ration the electricity.
They're gonna tell you what kind of car you can buy, they're gonna tell you what kind of light bulb you can use, they can tell you.
But there's a new thing.
Have you heard about these the smart thermostats?
Um what smart thermostat is and I'm by the way, I'm putting air quotes around the term smart.
It's where the government can regulate the thermostat in your home.
I'm not making this up.
Yeah.
And so they can say, you know what?
Mark Simone, it's you know summertime and you've got a you know, your your thermostat's a little low, you're using a lot of electricity, we're gonna have to turn that down for you.
Hey, that's uh I think Nest makes that, right?
And isn't that a Jeff Bezos company in one of his uh uh So you're gonna have to hire some uh kid to come over and jailbreak your thermostat so you can exactly.
Yeah, it's like you know, when they have the you know, the uh the buzzing sound on your seat belts and you had to like how can I do something?
Oh, wait, let's go over this.
Uh windmill, solar power.
Didn't they try that in a number of European countries and had to abandon it?
It didn't work.
Yeah, you bet yeah.
So this is the story that nobody's telling in the media.
So you're exactly right, Mark.
I mean, it was a total catastrophe for Germany, for Britain, for Spain, Italy.
They tried the green energy experiment, you know, ten years ago, and they damn near bankrupted their countries.
And now, look what's happening in Europe right now.
Europe is is suffering from what what I call energy poverty.
They have they've tied themselves to the Russians for their natural gas.
They've shut down their nuclear power, they shut down their coal plants, and this uh winter and fall, um the uh Europeans, the Brits are looking at a 200% increase in their utility costs.
Um same thing with uh Spain and Italy and France, and they are rationing their electricity.
I mean, this is all a result of this crazy climate change fanaticism of the left, where basically they don't want people driving cars, they don't want people using energy.
It is basically um you know, back to the stone ages um of uh of how we uh you know everybody can ride the bike or everybody can get on mass transit.
Now, isn't uh nuclear power just about the most productive and cleanest energy you could ever have, and why why don't why why don't they like nuclear plants?
Yeah, good question.
I mean, you know new nuclear power, if they were serious about trying to stop uh you know, climate change to the extent the government can do anything about changing the temperature of the planet, if they were serious about this and they didn't want to use coal and natural gas, which is where we get about sixty percent of our power, then they would say, Hey, what could we use?
Oh, yeah, nuclear power.
All we'd have to do is build, you know, seventy-five nuclear power plants in this country, and we'd be able to provide all the energy we want.
And it w those uh nuclear power plants emit zero, zero greenhouse uh greenhouse gas emissions, but they're opposed to that too.
By the way, nuclear do you know the reason, Mark, that the United States has been the country that's reduced our carbon emissions more than any other country?
Uh nuclear power?
New no no natural gas.
Oh, natural gas, too, right?
Yeah.
And so why do they why are they against natural gas?
I don't understand these people.
Any form of energy that works and is efficient and reliable, they're against any form of energy that's expensive and unreliable.
Um is and by the way, I love this too.
You know where the solar panels and the uh and the engines for the uh I mean the batteries for the uh for these uh Teslas are made, right?
China.
China.
We're playing right into the hands of our enemy.
I mean, look, I want to make a serious point.
What we're doing with our energy policy is incredibly stupid, but it's also incredibly dangerous.
We are there is an axis of evil in in the world today.
The new what I call the new axis of evil, and I'll bet you can uh that's what three countries those are.
Well, definitely China always makes the list.
Uh Iran makes the list.
Yes, uh Delaware, Joe Biden's camp.
No uh Raja.
Russia, of course.
Yeah.
And so those three countries are now taking over the world's energy market.
So coal, China's building 50 new massive coal plants right now.
In in five years, China's gonna be producing five times as much coal as we are.
You know, I guarantee you that President G doesn't care about climate change.
And then you've got Russia that's trying to take command of the natural gas market, and then you've got the OPEC countries, including Iran that wants to take control of the oil market.
So we are seeding control of these energy markets to our most our fiercest and most dangerous enemies.
Uh this is craziness, folks.
It is it is so dangerous for America's national security in our economy.
And you know what did Trump used to say?
The the our enemies are laughing behind our back, And that's exactly what they're doing when they see Biden's idiotic energy policy.
We should be producing as much power as we can from nuclear power, gas, coal.
We have 500 years worth of coal in this country.
Why are we using it?
Hey, but when you when they say they want to use electric cars, electricity for cars.
Sixty-eight percent of uh uh the stuff you creating electricity is fossil fuel.
Don't they know that?
I'm sorry to be laughing, but you're right.
I mean, that's how stupid these people are.
We're uh what are we gonna do?
Put windmills on the top of our electric vehicles or something?
And and then you wonder whether it's just they're doing this intentionally.
Are they doing this intentionally to destroy the American economy?
Because if you want to destroy uh a country's economy, taking away its energy supply, that's a pretty good way to do it.
Yeah.
So uh with all the problems of inflation and all the economy uh uh how are we ever gonna get out of this?
And we've got two more years of this administration.
I know.
Well, we have to the first thing we have to do if we want to get inflation down, we've got to stop the massive spending spree.
And they just spend and spend and spend and spend and spend.
Did you know it's four trillion dollars now, Mark, that since Biden came into office.
Four trillion, by the way.
That's four comma zero zero zero, comma zero zero zero, comma zero zero zero, comma zero zero zero of of spending that we've had under uh under Biden in just wow, he's only been in office, what, twenty months?
Yeah.
Uh you know, he's gonna bankrupt this country.
And now they've got the new proposal, of course, is uh five hundred billion dollars for student loan forgiveness, which by the way, the American people are totally against that proposal.
It's it's so incredibly stupid and unfair.
But uh, you know, we've taken up our debt uh by four trillion dollars in 20 months.
And and Biden's not stopping.
You know, he wants to be the next Franklin Roosevelt.
We're gonna spend ourselves into oblivion.
So uh this big speech tonight, which is expect expected to be so negative and divisive.
Uh is that operation change the subject to get everybody away from uh crime and inflation and uh h hating Trump again?
Probably.
You know, I mean I love this term that that Biden is using, neo fascists or what is it?
Semi-fascist.
Semi-fascist.
I mean, look, a fascist is someone who believes that the government should run the economy.
That's not us.
That's them.
I mean, this is called projection, folks.
This is what they do.
They want the government to run the energy sector.
They want the government to run, you know, the transportation sector.
They want the government to run every aspect of our life, and then they call us as conservatives fascists.
Yeah.
Hey, you know, the other thing they're doing, besides the out-of-control taxes in New York, this Democratic governor who's just a nut, they're talking about congestion pricing, besides the fact that toll on the bridge to come in is fifteen dollars.
They now want to charge you $23 to cross 60th Street.
Well this congestion pricing.
If this if Democrats are doing it, well, where do they have the right to charge us to drive down our own streets?
Well, I guess but you do have a right to move out of New York.
That's what millions of people are doing.
I mean, uh, isn't it amazing that the states that are in such a state of decline?
I'm in one of them, California right now.
By the way, it's the weather, you know, it is a little bit hot here, but it this is a little slice of paradise.
It's amazing you can screw up a state like California.
But you know, look what they've done in New York.
Look what they've done to Chicago.
My hometown of Chicago.
You can't even go out at night in Chicago.
Yeah.
Because of the crime.
I mean, they destroy every city they're in, and and then they blame it on Republicans.
When, you know, Chicago hasn't had a Republican in 50 years.
So if the Republicans take Congress, what is it they should do to fix this?
To fix this inflation problem.
Stop spending and borrowing so much money.
Let's balance the budget.
Let's go back to the Trump policies.
You know, Trump created, you know this, Mark.
Trump created the best economy we ever had.
We you know what the inflation rate was was when Trump left office?
Like uh two percent?
Not less.
1.5.
Well, you know, how do you go from 1.5 to 9% inflation in in 18 months?
I mean, you almost have to try to do that.
So we've got to go back to the policies that work.
We've got to secure our border.
We've got to get rid of crime in our cities.
We've got to get uh, you know, have a rational rather than hire 80,000 new IRS agents.
Why don't they fix the tax code and make it simple?
You're in my mutual buddy Steve Forbes has talked about the flat tax.
Wouldn't that be a lot more sensible to have a tax code that people actually understand?
Yeah, well, but the problem is no politician, Republican or Democrat, no side ever does that.
It it'd be such a great thing to do.
But uh, because because they don't want to because you're giving away power.
You know, the power source of Washington is controlling the you know the favors they give away under the tax system.
And Steve Forbes is right.
Just get rid of all that crap in the tax system and make it make it simple.
By the way, I'm run I know we're running out of time.
I gotta tell you, there was a piece in the Rolling Stone uh magazine, which I know you read all the time.
It says Steve Moore is a deadbeat.
He didn't, you know, he says the people who didn't who want these uh loan forgiveness are dead beats, but he didn't pay his taxes.
And I've got these people dead to rights because we actually paid fifty thousand we did have a tax lien against us because we had an argument with the IRS.
We got a check back last year for $50,000 of overpayment in our taxes.
So I wanted to let your national audience know that the left just makes things up.
They uh they attack people without even you know finding out the facts because the facts don't matter to them, and this is a perfect example.
Well, if you do if you're getting attacked in Rolling Stone, you're doing something right then.
But uh Yeah, well, remember when Rolling Stone was about sex, drugs, and rock and roll and uh it's just echoing echoing the uh check uh check their track record.
I believe they got caught in some other fake news that they had to retract in the past, but uh we're out of time.
But everybody get uh Steve Moore's book, Govzilla.
It's a great book.
Get the book Govzilla, and you can get his free newsletter.
It's really good stuff.
It's free every day.
It'll be sent to you.
Just go to Committee to Unleash Prosperity.com, Committee to Unleash Prosperity.com.
Steve Moore, thanks for being with us.
All right, Mark, have a great weekend.
All right.
Take care.
Hey, it's Mark Simone here for uh Sean Hannity.
Uh take a look at my Instagram.
We've got a picture of uh me here in the studio right now.
Mark Simone NYC at Instagram and Truth Social, Twitter, all that.
And make sure you follow everything going on at Hannity.com.
Uncovering evil and defending the truth.
You're on The Sean Hannity Show.
The Sean Hannity Show.
Hey, it's Mark Simone here for uh Sean Hannity, uh Labor how'd it get to be Labor Day weekend already?
Unbelievable.
Summer definitely deserves a speeding ticket.
Uh hey, Greg Gutfeld, congratulations, Greg Gutfeld.
Number one in late night, number one beat Colbert, beat uh Fallon beat Kimmel.
And it's all because these three late-night shows on the networks got so corrupted.
They just became uh just far left woke, kooky shows.
Even Fallon went and finally went in that direction.
And uh they're like uh it's like uh it's like confirmation therapy, you know, for it's not that's these shows not that funny anymore.
But if you're a left-wing kook, an angry left winger, you watch Colbert, he just makes you feel better about yourself.
You'll notice Greg Gutfeld gets a laugh when he tells a joke.
But if you watch Colbert, it's not a laugh.
It's a little, but it's applause.
They just applaud every joke.
So it's not that funny, but they appreciate the uh political point he's making, and it's all agenda-driven, so they always always apply.
By the way, uh Colbert, I think he has twenty-four writers.
Gutfeld, it's him and like another guy, and that's it.
And they're beating uh Colbert, Fallon, and Kimmel.
And it's uh I mean, it's just such an obvious uh business model.
If you were a network and you weren't so biased, you'd call in somebody.
Uh Fallon's probably the one who could get away with this.
Just say, hey, tone it down.
Go back to the middle of the road, play both sides.
You know, Colbert will never do that.
What happened to Jimmy Kimmel?
He just went completely berserk.
I mean, he's just a lost cause.
It's funny you got uh Kimmel becomes a radical uh left wing guy.
And Howard Stern, what happened to Howard Stern?
He's like a woke left wing guy.
Uh and it all started when he hung around Kimmel.
There's something uh something in the water out there, or something.
Anyway, hey, we'll get to uh remind me to get to Pete Buddig.
He's definitely running for president.
He began his campaign already.
Uh and you may have heard Sarah Palin lost.
Uh they make it sound like she's so unpopular.
It's uh she didn't really lose.
It was that rank choice voting where they can juggle the votes around.
Somebody could be in fourth place and somehow they uh they won.
Uh so that that's how that happened.
Uh coming up in the next hour.
Hey, we got a big race here in New York for governor.
We got to get rid of this woke, crazy left-wing governor.
So we'll talk about that in the next hour.
Uh it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Uh Sean will be uh back uh after Labor Day.
It's uh that week where everybody's just away.
So uh back with another great two hours to go.
Mark Simone for Sean.
