Sean covers the latest on the immigrants who were flown to Martha's Vineyard this week. The "Not-In-My-Backyard" voices are loud as most of the immigrants have been moved to on-shore shelters. The borders are open...that much is a fact. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
All right, 53 days and these all-important midterm elections are on the way.
Glad you're with us.
Toll-free.
Happy Friday, 800-941-Sean.
Our number, if you want to be a part of the program, this is the greatest political jiu-jitsu move ever.
Started with Governor Abbott sending busloads of illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C.
And then Mural Bowser just lost it, declared a state of emergency, demanded $50 million from the federal government, called up the National Guard.
I mean, they can't handle it.
And then Abbott starts sending them to New York City.
Again, both places, sanctuary cities, sanctuary areas.
And in the case of Ron DeSantis, he just takes it to a whole other level.
He charters two airplanes, sends 50 illegal immigrants that Joe Biden had sent to his state, and he sent them up to Martha's Vineyard.
And everybody is losing their atom ship.
They just can't handle this.
And listening to people, I'm like, oh, I've said this for years.
Liberals are only generous with other people's money.
They're not generous with their own money.
You know, they really love sanctuary status as long as it's not in their home.
Just so happens the Obamas, I didn't know they had 30 full acres and an estate on Martha's Vineyard.
You could take 15 of those acres and protect the Obama family.
I'm sure they'd be glad to donate 15 acres so that they can build an encampment for the home, for now the migrants that are being shipped to Martha's Vineyard or Sanctuary Island, because that's what it says they are.
You just, the reaction is just simply priceless.
I mean, probably the best reaction is from Hillary Clinton and Gavin Newsom.
Hillary Clinton accusing DeSantis of human trafficking.
Now, remember, in the last, this year alone, Texas has already had to deal with 1.1 million illegal immigrants.
Now, why do we have this problem?
We have this problem because Joe Biden refuses to enforce the laws of the land.
He inherited a secure border.
He abandoned the stay in Mexico policy.
He stopped building the border wall.
Trump had built over 500 miles of it.
He didn't finish it, had no intention of ever finishing it.
He brought back the Obama-Biden policy of catch and release, and he put it on steroids and human growth hormone.
And he decided to make a process and release.
And then he took it even a step further and he offered preferential treatment to illegal immigrants.
No COVID tests required.
Remember, he built the cages for kids in the middle of a pandemic and overcrowded them right in the middle of the worst of COVID.
And you said, and they wouldn't let any cameras in there.
And the only reason we got cameras is because some senators like Ted Cruz went in there, insisted on going in there as oversight and took videos.
And if it wasn't for them sharing those videos, the public would never have seen Joe's cages for kids.
But we know all of this because Joe did all of this.
And then Joe has been secretly, privately, in the dark of night.
Jensaki tried to lie to Peter Doocy and say, no, they're actually early morning flights.
But they would be moving these illegal immigrants all over the country on flights that would land at 2, 3, 4 a.m. in the morning, early morning flight.
No, that would be in the dark of night.
And they didn't go to prominent airports.
Like, for example, we first got tipped off about what this was happening on a mass scale in New York by former Westchester County supervisor, a guy by the name of Rob Astorino, a good guy, and he told us all about it.
And then I hear it's happening in Long Island.
There's a airport out pretty far east called MacArthur Airport.
And the same thing is happening there where people are not going to see it.
It's not happening at Kennedy, LaGuardia, or Newark.
And they're just dropping them.
And so Hillary Clinton is accusing DeSantis now of human trafficking for sending migrants to Martha's Vineyard.
Now, Joe has been doing this the whole time.
So if you're going to go after the real, the person really guilty of aiding and abetting the law breaking, as I have been saying repeatedly, the person really responsible for human trafficking, because if any of you were doing what Joe Biden is doing, you would be arrested and charged and probably be found guilty of human trafficking because he's taken all of these illegal immigrants.
He's not enforcing the law.
He's processing them all, giving them a free Biden phone and then transportation in the dark of night to every obscure airport that they can find all over the country.
And they're just dumping these people off.
And they're forcing the states to then provide housing and food and shelter and health care and an education for Joe's illegal immigrants.
That would be human trafficking by its very definition at the highest level.
It's like a human trafficking syndicate.
Hillary Clinton only accuses DeSantis of this.
Where do you hear DeSantis' response to Gavin Newsom?
But here's Hillary and what she says about DeSantis.
Well, I think, Joe, you have laid out the craziness of the time in which we're living, where some politicians would rather not only have an issue, but exacerbate it to the extent of literally human trafficking, as you said.
And so many other Americans, I happen to believe still, the majority of Americans, are good-hearted and generous.
And when people end up on their doorstep in need, they're going to respond.
They're going to feed them and house them.
And the kids in the AP Spanish class are going to be let out of high school so they could go and translate.
You know, that's the kind of American spirit that we try to celebrate at the Clinton Global Initiative.
Let's roll up our sleeves and get things done.
Feed and, okay, so I guess the next plane load should drop down in Chappaqua, New York.
Hillary Clinton will feed and house the illegal immigrants because that's what she says that her Clinton initiative is all about.
And she was on morning, you know, Liberal Joe saying all that.
Now, Gavin Newsom, the funny thing is, is Gavin Newsom is just dying to run for president.
Gavin Newsom, I predict today, will be the 2024 Democratic presidential candidate.
This guy, he's already, remember, Joe was out of town.
He goes in there with his jacket slung over his shoulder, thinking he is hot, Adam Schiff, and basically walks around the place like he owns the place.
He's one of the dumbest guys ever.
And every time he tries to take on Ron DeSantis, he gets his ass kicked.
And it's not even hard.
It's like a layup for Ron DeSantis.
Anyway, so Newsom demanded that the Biden DOJ indict both Ron DeSantis and Governor Greg Abbott for, quote, kidnapping after DeSantis sent the plane loads of illegal immigrants to Mothers Vineyard.
Now, as a matter of just simple fact-checking and a reality check in this particular case, if you look at the record that the U.S. has sent over 70 flights of illegal immigrants from the Mexican border to Jacksonville, Florida alone this summer.
But the Biden administration has not disclosed any information about these clandestine transports.
Ron DeSantis has been following it.
The flights, which landed in overnight hours in the dark at night, come as officials struggle to deal with overcrowding of border facilities.
Again, poor Governor Abbott this year alone has had to deal with 1.1 million illegal Joe Biden immigrants.
Over 70 air charter flights on jetliners coming from the southwest border have landed at Jacksonville International Airport, according to Larry Keefe, the Republican governor's public safety czar.
On average, there's 36 passengers on each of these flights, and that has been going on through the course of the summer all the way through September.
Now, Lori Lightweight, the mayor of Chicago, she got a couple of busloads of illegal immigrants, and she immediately, according to Hillary, got involved in her own human trafficking and put those illegal immigrants on a bus and got them the hell out of her city.
In New York City, Fox 5 reports they've been helping migrants who were bused from Texas to New York City, a sanctuary city, relocate to other states.
Nobody wants this problem.
So in other words, what's the usual predictable name calling of liberal Democrats and socialist Democrats?
Oh, you're racist.
You're xenophobic, et cetera, et cetera.
Well, it appears that Lori Lightweight is.
It appears that New York City is.
And it appears that the people of Martha's Vineyard is.
So anyway, Newsom is demanding the DOJ investigate Abbott and DeSantis for kidnapping.
And anyway, in a letter to the Attorney General, he asked whether actions by the governors sending illegal immigrants from their respective states to destinations like New York and Washington, D.C. and Chicago and Martha's Vineyard were illegal.
Well, is it illegal for Joe Biden to send them all over the country?
Because that's the most logical question.
Anyway, Ron DeSantis, he responds to Gavin Newsom, and this is what he said.
The governor of California sent a letter to the Department of Justice saying you need to prosecute Texas and Florida governors.
And all I can say is I think his hair gel is interfering with his brain function.
I mean, you can just see Newsome is so ambitious.
I mean, this is what he wants to do.
Now, the people of Martha's Vineyard, listen to this one resident.
They have to move somewhere else.
We can't take 50 people.
Well, imagine what Greg Abbott is dealing with and what other governors are dealing with.
And now Martha's Vineyard, the sanctuary island it is, can't take 50 people.
Listen.
The difficult challenges are we have at some point in time to have to move to the Vineyard somewhere else, right?
We cannot, we don't have the services to take care of 50 immigrants.
And we certainly don't have housing rent, a housing crisis as we are on this island.
And so we don't, we can't house everyone here that lives here and works here.
We don't have housing for 50 more people.
We don't have housing for 50 more people.
They're going to have to move somewhere else.
And it gets even more interesting because remember, it wasn't that long ago that last week, as a matter of fact, that Kamala Harris said the border's secure.
And she repeated that lie, just like she's been lying with Joe and saying our inflation is zero.
Another lie, but they're saying she said last week with Chucky Todd that the border's secure, and then she also said she wants amnesty.
But listen.
Would you call the border secure?
I think that there is no question that we have to do what the president and I asked Congress to do.
The first request we make, pass a bill to create a pathway to citizenship.
The border is secure, but we also have a broken immigration system, in particular over the last four years before we came in, and it needs to be fixed.
We're going to have two million people cross this border for the first time ever.
You're confident this border is secure.
We have a secure border in that that is a priority for any nation, including ours in our administration.
How do you let her get away with that lie?
And then Corine Jean-Pierre repeats the lie.
Listen to this.
Does the White House stand by those comments that the border is secure?
What we stand by is that we are doing everything that we can to make sure that we follow the process that's been put forth.
That's why we have historic funding to do just that, to make sure that, you know, to make sure that to make sure that the folks that we encounter at the border be removed.
Is the border secure?
I'm just going to refer back to the vice president.
We agree with her.
She is saying that there's a lot of work to do, right?
She also said that in that very statement.
We agree that the border is secure, but there is still more work to be done.
We agree it's secure.
She can't even lie and get away with it.
It's hilarious.
All right.
800-941-Sean, our number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Great show coming up.
We'll look at the danger of the economy with new numbers today.
Look, back in the good old days, you know, Americans used to argue about what policies it's best to pursue to improve the country we love.
Sadly, too often today, we're now finding ourselves arguing about whether our country is great or not, whether we should love America, be ashamed of America.
I mean, that is a shame in and of itself.
Now, the reason for this is pretty simple.
For too many years, too many of our kids in schools have been neglecting to teach Americans about America's great heritage of liberty and presenting them instead with a dishonest, one-sided narrative of America as fundamentally unjust, racist, etc.
And Hillsdale College is weighing in for America.
They're offering a free online course.
It's called The Great American Story, A Land of Hope.
They also are offering Constitution 101, the meaning, the history of our Constitution.
And you may not know it, but tomorrow is Constitution Day.
So I encourage all of you to enroll in one of these free courses, absolutely free from Hillsdale.
We have a special website we've set up for you.
Tell your friends about it.
It's Sean4Hillsdale.com.
That's S-E-A-N-F-O-R Hillsdale, one word.com.
And you're going to love these courses.
Beyond Hillary, beyond even, you know, Gavin Newsom.
And Ron DeSantis' great response.
Now, remember, this human trafficking has been going on the whole time Biden's been president, since he opened the borders and gave preferential treatment to people that don't respect our laws, sovereignty, or borders.
But to listen to the media mob, oh, this is the most inhumane thing on earth.
Listen.
To ship families here, children here, on a lie and use them as political pawns is a truly inhumane thing to do.
We woke up to the news this morning that Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida sent two plane loads of migrants to Martha's Vineyard off the coast of Massachusetts, including kids and whatnot.
And I'm not saying this is not a one-for-one.
This is not a parallel here in any way, but it does address some of the same themes that are part of this documentary here.
The abstraction of human life.
I get they're trying to make a point, but it's these are people you're playing with.
These are real live people with children and older people.
And, you know, we can work it out, but if you're going to be a bonehead, who wants to play with you?
It's Joe Biden that built the cages for kids that were overcrowded in the middle of a pandemic.
It's Joe Biden that is offering preferential treatment.
That means no COVID testing, no vaccine mandate.
You get a free phone.
You get the transportation to one of the states around the country and you'll land in the dark of night.
Why isn't that inhumane?
Why isn't that a boneheaded decision?
The fact is, Joe Biden has been not following, he's not been following the laws of the land.
He's been aiding and abetting lawbreaking.
And at the highest level, he's been the guy involved in human trafficking.
And if you're going to let people in illegally, then you might as well send the people to those sanctuary states, cities, towns, and islands where they love them so much.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
Happy Friday.
Dow down again today.
And I would expect if we get a 75 or 100 basis point increase in interest rates by the Fed next week, that the market's not going to do great then either.
So Hillary says that people would open their homes to these illegal immigrants.
I guess the next plane load ought to go to Chappaqua.
That's the only, she was willing to open her home.
That's very nice of her.
We should take her up on her offer.
New York City, according to Fox 5, they are now bussing the illegal immigrants sent from Texas and other border states out of state so much for their sanctuary city love.
I guess they're as guilty as human trafficking as Joe Biden is, as you believe Gavin Newsom's definition.
You know, it's amazing.
Fake news, CNN, MSDNC, ABC, CBS, NBC, all erupting in just pure fury and anger at DeSantis' move here.
It's inhumane.
This is human trafficking.
And I'm like, well, they learned it from Joe Biden.
Joe Biden has been leading the effort to aid and abet the law breaking in the beginning, offering preferential treatment and transporting illegal immigrants all over the country with their free Biden phones.
Unbelievable.
You know, and just like no Democrat wants to be seen with Joe Biden's election season, no Democrat is willing to say that the border is secure except for Kamala Harris and, of course, Corrine Jean-Pierre and Joe Biden himself.
They just lie.
Just like, oh, we're at zero inflation.
Now, the Massachusetts governor has a plan.
These illegal immigrants sent to Motha's Vineyard, the Sanctuary Island, are now going to be put and sent to a Cape Cod military base.
They have a rhino governor there, Charlie Baker, coming to the rescue of Motha's Vineyard constituents.
Doesn't want to anger them.
And he announced this morning that he's going to be relocating the illegal immigrants to Cape Cod.
And he announced earlier today that Joint Base Cape Cod will be used as a site for a new shelter for roughly 50 migrants.
All right, I guess it's time.
They have, what, a million one that have come into Texas so far this year.
Why don't they send another couple of hundred thousand?
And they can send some to Gavin Newsom, and they can send some to Chappaqua, send more to New York City, send more to Washington, D.C. Popular signs on Martha's Vineyards tout their support for immigrants and refugees.
If you look when you enter the island of Martha's Vineyard, it says, quote, a popular sign on display at several locations all over the island.
It says, the island of Martha's Vineyard respects women.
We value black lives.
We stand with our LGBTQ community members.
We stand with immigrants, with refugees, and with indigenous peoples and with peoples of all faith.
All are welcome here.
Hate has no business here.
I guess they can cross out the part about welcoming immigrants and refugees because they can't get them out fast enough.
The homeless, Martha's Vineyard Homeless Director says Biden's illegal migrants must go.
They're actually saying it.
Despite the meaningless signs all over the island, the official in charge of homelessness on Martha's Vineyard said that there's no room at the inn for these illegal immigrants.
And a video with reporters, at some point in time, they have to move somewhere else because the island often visited by the wealthy and powerful left has a problem with housing.
We certainly don't have housing.
We're in a housing crisis.
We can't house everyone who lives and works here.
We don't have housing for 50 more people.
Well, there's an estate there, and it's owned by prominent Democrats, Barack and Michelle Obama.
That estate is on 30 waterfront beautiful acres.
How about we take half of the estate?
We don't need to take more than that.
And build housing for the people that they're so welcoming towards.
You have the president of Martha's Vineyard, I'm sorry, prominent resident of Martha's Vineyard on the Obamas themselves.
You know, why not use their home?
Anyway, if you look at it, one of their prominent Martha's Vineyard resident is calling on the Obamas to step up and do their fair share.
Longtime Martha's Vineyard resident says she supports Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' move to relocate migrants to the sanctuary vacation island as a way of highlighting the border crisis, says the Obamas should open their $12 million home to newcomers.
Person's name is Jane Shittick, former town official, turned crime novelist, has lived in Martha's Vineyard for 42 years, but now spends part of the year in Florida.
And she said, I don't think the people like the Obamas with huge estates who live here in the summer will care about the migrants.
I would love to see the Obamas open up their huge property, erect tents, and look after all these people while they're being processed.
Well, that sounds like there's one person at least that's not a hardcore leftist hypocrite phony.
Now, Biden has gotten into the mix.
He's blasting DeSantis and Abbott for doing the exact thing he's been doing.
Biden claimed it was positively un-American for Governor Greg Abbott and Governor Ron DeSantis to force wealthy Democratic donors in Martha's Vineyard to deal with the consequences of his open borders policy.
He called on the Republican governors to stop sending migrants into Democratic cities and communities, calling these actions political stunts and un-American.
Well, my response back to Biden is stop sending your illegal immigrants because you're not enforcing the law to red states that are not sanctuary states and cities.
Send them to California, send them to Martha's Vineyard, send them to D.C. Maybe you can house them on the White House lawn.
Maybe you can house them wherever you want to house them.
But you're the ones that support the illegal human trafficking in the first place.
You take care of it.
It's your problem.
You're causing it.
You're not enforcing the law.
So you should be the one that has to deal with it.
I just love listening to Democrats.
Republicans are playing politics with human beings, using them as props.
What they're doing is wrong on American.
It's reckless.
Now, of course, Joe Biden would never think of playing politics as he throws the border open to millions of illegal immigrants.
And, of course, Kamala Harris says we need to give him a path to citizenship.
Well, that would be something of great value and great worth, don't you think?
Well, if you come here, we're going to make you a citizen.
Wow, I hope you vote Democrat.
Why don't we just have legal immigration?
In other words, that we get to make sure you don't have radical associations in the middle of a pandemic.
We have to have some health checks.
Make sure that you're not bringing anything like COVID in with you as you come that might infect other Americans.
Why don't we have some type of means testing with a $33 trillion debt that our kids will never be able to play back, pay back, rather?
Anyway, so they're all, I'm just loving watching this.
You can't even make this up.
DeSantis was right.
We're not a sanctuary state.
He said their virtue signaling is a fraud, talking about leftists attacking him for sending illegal immigrants to their sanctuary cities.
Texas Governor Abbott, the decision overwhelmingly supported by the people of Texas, blasting the White House for what they're calling the migrant busing and illegal stunt.
Hispanic Republicans say that DeSantis flight is exposing border issues.
This is a problem that Joe has caused.
This is a problem that liberals want to have.
And if this is their policy not to enforce the law, then they should be the ones that take care of the people that they're enabling to come into the country illegally.
It's not complicated.
You know, we have so many different examples of Biden's secret flights unaccompanied, migrant kids, you know, dumped in airport after airport in the dark of night.
And it's so dangerous.
What happens?
Then those cities and towns get caught.
Where are they supposed to house all these people?
How do they feed all these people, clothe all these people?
How do they offer health care to all these people?
How do they educate all of these people?
You know, the highest number in history, our Border Patrol is logging over 8,000 illegal immigrants each day, and they're not turning them away as Joe Biden has claimed, as evidenced by the fact they just keep walking into the country.
One report shows a top Biden official met with Soros activists ahead of the border crisis discussions.
Anyway, it's just, this is a great way to highlight what it is that Biden has been doing and how wrong it is.
Never mind all the other issues associated with open borders, like human trafficking of young girls, the perilous journey that these migrants are taking, the fentany crisis, the opioid crisis.
It's okay if they do it, but it's not okay if Republicans do it.
That's basically the message here.
You know, it's this is probably the best thing that any Republican could have done.
Give credit to Governor Abbott, Governor DeSantis, best political jiu-jitsu move ever.
And this humanitarian crisis in Mafa's vineyard with 50 people.
Okay, try and deal with the problem going on right now at the Rio Grande and El Paso, the one we saw in Del Rio.
I mean, it's been awful.
The Illinois governor has issued a disaster proclamation after a few hundred illegal immigrants were bussed to Chicago.
And Lori Lightweight immediately put them back on buses and took them out of her city.
She didn't want to deal with them.
I guess she'll be charged with human trafficking also.
And the same with the New York City mayor.
You don't own the libs with human lives, Liberal Joe said.
It's really grotesque what these Republicans are doing.
No, it's not.
They're the ones that are facilitating all of this.
They're the ones that should be responsible for all of this.
You know, there's one thing I've noticed too.
You know, a lot of people say, well, you know, those that have said, well, Donald Trump, we love his policies.
We wish he would fight less.
And maybe we need a Republican with the same policies that won't fight as much.
You know, Steve Schmidt is out there.
He ran John McCain's campaign.
And I don't care that he's a founder of the Lincoln Project.
And I don't care if he agrees with me or disagrees with me.
It's a free country.
He's now claiming DeSantis would kill his own political opponents if he could.
This is not hyperbole.
What Republicans fail to understand is if it's Donald Trump or anybody else, liberals will demonize you, lie about you, smear you, slander you, and try to destroy you.
Because that's been their playbook for years.
And why we haven't learned the lesson, I don't know.
By the way, we now have a crisis of all these Democrats that don't want to debate.
Georgia, we had Warnock in Georgia, didn't want to debate Herschel Walker.
They finally will do it late in October, October 14th.
In Pennsylvania, Fetterman says, oh, I'll debate you on October 25th.
Early voting starts Monday.
So you'll have 50% of the vote in before this guy ever answers a single question and he gets closed captioning that will slow down the debate and he doesn't want to add any additional time to the one hour that he might be asked questions.
You got to be kidding me.
You have Senator Murray doesn't want to debate her opponent, Smiley, who's doing really well out there.
You have an Arizona, you have Kerry Lake.
Democratic candidate Katie Hobbs doesn't want to debate Kerry Lake for anything.
Same with the Minnesota governor's race, Walls versus Jensen.
And Kathy Hochold, the New York governor, doesn't want to debate Lee Zeldon.
Why not?
You have the same thing happening.
Tens of millions of dollars being poured into these Senate races in particular to smear slander Republicans.
Then Democrats don't want to debate.
Then they get embarrassed into a late debate after early voting has gone on for some time in the hopes that they can build up enough votes before they're ever asked a question.
And most of these Democrats have been asked next to nothing.
By the way, Senate Democrats are requesting additional funding for illegal migrants being bussed to sanctuary states.
Oh, so now they want, what, to give more money to California?
Pretty unbelievable, but pretty predictable also.
Stacey Abrams believes, like so many, like Fetterman and like Mandela Barnes and all these radicals running on the Democratic ticket, an abortion should be legal until the time of birth.
Wow, no restrictions at all.
Delaware State Court rules mail-in ballot voting is illegal.
Anyone paying attention to any integrity measures in voting this year?
I am.
Been talking about it since December of 2021.
By the way, I want to give you this warning.
JP Morgan has confirmed what I said.
Mark my words.
Oil prices are going to jump dramatically.
Oil prices are headed to $150 a barrel as supply chain supply growth continues to lag, according to JP Morgan, energy strategist speaking to Yahoo News.
Rent crude oil rose 1%, $94 a barrel as of Wednesday of this week, and it's well off its high of $130 in March.
It's going to get high again, probably a record high.
Janet Yellen says the IRS's $80 billion budget increase will enable the agency to answer 85% of taxpayer phone calls.
In other words, like, why am I being audited?
FedEx CEO said he expects the economy to enter a worldwide recession, not just an American recession.
And this is going to get bad.
I'm telling you, I can sense it.
Every siren in my brain is going off on this.
All right.
How do you save money in inflationary and recessionary times?
One way to do it, average family saves close to $1,000 a year.
Many families save much more just by simply switching to the one phone company, veteran-owned, by the way, that I trust.
It's my phone company, PureTalk.
They use the exact same 5G networks, the exact same cell towers as Verizon, ATT, and T-Mobile, but it's about half the price.
Now, you can save all this money for the exact same service.
Why won't you do it?
You can get unlimited talk, text, data, six gigs of data for just $30 a month.
That's a lot of money to save.
Just take out your cell phone, dial pound 250, say the keyword save now.
If you do it now, you get one month free.
Pound 250 keywords, save now, get one month free from our friends at Pure Talk for the exact same service.
More on the border jujitsu move by Republicans.
How do you and your family deal with a recession and record high inflation and the possibility of a barrel of oil going to $150 a barrel, according to JP Morgan?
That's not good.
Anyway, we'll get to all of that.
My friend, my colleague Steve Doocy, checks in with us today and much, much more.
And your calls, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, Hannity tonight, we got a great show.
The AGs from Florida and from the great state of Texas, Ted Cruz tonight, and much more.
