This isn't iHeart Podcast.
Do you want President Biden to run again in 2024?
No, I've been very clear.
I'd like to see a generational change.
Should uh Joe Biden run again in 2024?
I think that should be a decision made by Joe Benn.
And that's it's not a matter of uh anyone's choice other than his.
Let me start off with two herbs.
Made in America.
Made in America.
Master hyperbole.
I'm not joking about that, as you know.
Gas prices too high.
Mortgage rates going up.
Inflation on the rise.
Time to vote out the Dems on November the 8th.
Get him out of here.
G minus 26 days until election day.
Yeah, we're coming to your city Gonna play our guitars and sing you a country song Sean Hannity.
New Sean Hannity show.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup information overload hour, 800 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the uh program, 26 days till the all-important midterm elections.
One issue that is now standing out uh as a top issue for voters.
Law and order, safety and security is top of mind.
And we talked about the record homicide rates yesterday, about 7400 uh annually.
And uh then when you break it down between blue cities and blue states and red cities and red states, you know, a little over 700 in the red states and 6300 in blue states.
Why?
Because they've adopted the insanity of defund dismantle no bail laws, and they're letting out hardened criminals.
Why are we advocating the release of convicted murderers?
You know, since 2009 on Hannity, my TV show, I've scrolled the names of of people you've never heard of.
People that have been shot, shot, and killed in Chicago.
And I scrolled it because I couldn't understand why.
Every weekend, all the violence, all the shootings, all the murders, and Obama and Biden never lifted a finger.
The entire eight years they were in office to get this under control and to save lives.
Because that's what it's about, saving lives.
And it makes no sense to me.
Now it's gotten far worse and far more radical.
Anyway, there are people in Chicago that are putting together a program.
They want this violence and madness to stop.
Bishop E. W. Uh Jackson is the president founder of the Stan Foundation.
Our friend Sergeant Trey Penny is with us.
He's the president of the National Fallen Officer Foundation, 22-year-old Dallas police sergeant.
My friend and colleague from the Fox News channel, Gianno Caldwell is also with us.
His 18-year-old brother was shot and killed in Chicago in a shooting, and he knows firsthand the the tragedy of loss.
We invite you, we welcome all of you to the program.
Gianno, I want to start with you.
You're not only a colleague, but you are a friend, and I need to tell people that this tragedy of losing your brother has changed the trajectory of your life and and even your career.
And you're doing phenomenal work to make sure that our streets are safer, and you're putting your own life at risk doing it, and I've been watching your work.
I'm I'm amazed by it.
But you lost your 18-year-old brother in Chicago, and nobody really cares.
That's the sad part of this.
Nobody's ever heard of the names.
They can't politicize it, so why bother talking about all the people that die and are shot every week of?
That's right.
And I want to thank you, my friend.
And just to let your listeners know, Sean Hannity has been a godsend in my life since my brother was murdered.
I've been talking to him on a regular consistent basis, just a text.
How are you doing?
How's your family doing?
Are you getting rest?
And it meant everything to me.
So I want to thank you so much in the bottom of my heart for you being you, Sean.
Because I know it has nothing to do with my own.
I'm so sorry.
It breaks my heart.
I appreciate you.
No, I thank you so much.
Yes, Sean.
It's June 24th on 114th Street South Ven on the south side of Chicago.
My baby brother Christian was murdered.
He was not the target.
He was standing outside of a venue.
They were after one guy, and they happened to shoot everyone that was out there outside, including a woman.
My brother was the only one who did not make it.
He was murdered.
And since then I've been out for justice, not just for my brother, but for the victims of violence across the nation.
And I gotta tell you, Sean, it is a tough fight.
This is the hardest fight I've ever taken on in my life.
And it's led me down some very interesting word roads and paths that I never anticipated for myself.
Even recently, if um any Fox viewers are listening, which I'm sure they are, you've seen the coverage of me in Washington, DC, asking about the crime crisis from people like Chuck Schumer, uh, Monique Presley from the squad, Elene Omar from the squad, many folks who supported the defund the police movement, and they were silent.
Just to just to paint the picture for our audience, you went to Washington, you had a camera and a microphone.
It was a five-minute package.
I watched it three times.
And Fox and Friends ran it at least twice.
And I watched this, and I'm like, I'm blown away.
Nobody would answer your question.
You lost your brother, and you're asking them, they're lawmakers.
They have the ability to change things, and they won't even give you the time of day.
That's right, Sean.
And many of them knew who I were who I am, rather.
I was on the hill when people were walking up to me saying sorry about your brothers.
This isn't some hidden secret.
I'm asking the question, not simply for some political reasons, because this isn't about left or right anymore.
This is about humanity.
Policies pushed by certain people, the defund the police movement has led to policy violence.
Dead people in the streets.
We see crime is up in Chicago overall, 37%.
Just last year alone, uh, kids, sixteen and under, almost three hundred of them shot.
This is an epidemic.
This is a state of emergency, not just in Chicago, but across the country.
Not only that, with go ahead.
These kids are our national treasure.
They have names.
Their lives matter.
They're uh and and here we're losing our national treasure.
I'll let you finish your thought.
And and and absolutely, and to that point, you their lives matter.
We talk about them pushing a deep front uh the police movement and saying black lives matter, but what I saw when I was on Capitol Hill, black lives didn't matter to them.
It's black boats that matter to them to them.
And the Democratic Party has used it as a platform simply to get black boats until it became politically not popular.
When you see the polling, 77% of Americans across the country see crime as a major issue, and it has to come to an end, but we have to hold them accountable.
Each and every one of them who pushed this narrative and has led to the d destruction of lives across the country, Sean.
So this conference is taking place.
It's called the Save the Children Conference.
Bishop E. W. Uh Jackson is the president and founder of the Stan Foundation.
Uh thank you for being with us, Bishop.
And probably I need a lot more prayers than anyone else on the line, so thank you ahead of time.
Um but in all seriousness, we're losing our National Treasure, Bishop.
It's it's it's heartbreaking.
Yeah, Sean, I want to say it's an honor to be with you.
I've been watching you and listening to you for years.
Uh yeah, Sean, we are holding this conference in Chicago because there's a major problem in Chicago.
But as Gianno said so eloquently, it's a problem across the country.
We have been chronicling the murders of innocent children across the country.
We are at 299 since 2020.
299 murdered children.
These include children like legend Talia Farrow, children killed sleeping in their beds, killed playing in their backyards, kill riding their bicycles, as his brother was, just killed innocently, carrying on with their lives, and these bullets find them because we've got lawless thugs in the community who don't care about the value of life.
So we're holding the conference in Chicago, partnering with Pastor Corey Brooks to do it to highlight this is a problem not only in Chicago, it's a problem across the country.
And and look, you're right.
I just say absolutely right.
Black lives matter.
The defund the police movement, dismantling the police movement, has led to more black people dying in the streets of our cities.
Twenty, five hundred more in 2020 than in 2019.
So if black lives really matter as they say they do, where are they now?
Where are their voices?
Well, obviously, as Gianna said, it's not about take caring about the lives of black people.
By the way, all but two of these kids, all but two of them have been black.
And we don't hear any human cry about that.
So it's not about caring about people at all.
It's about their political agenda and their own sense of power.
And we're going there to try to offer solutions here from the community, but also as a platform to say this is happening all across the country.
And thank you, Sean, for paying attention to it.
And by the way, it's happening on Saturday, October the 15th.
That's this Saturday.
And uh we're gonna put a link up on Hannity.com and you can RSVP and go to this.
If you care about your the violence that's happening in every big city and small town now across the country, uh hopefully this is a great first step.
Uh we also have our friend uh Trey Penny with us.
And uh Trey, you've been on this program for years.
We've been friends for years, and we've talked about this for years.
I'm glad finally people are really saying enough is enough.
That's right, Sean, and thank you so much for having me on.
But look, I'm I'm actually going out there to join Bishop out there in uh in Chicago.
And you know, I have a you know I have a strong base out there in Chicago with law enforcement and the community.
So I'm going out there to engage everyone, uh, not only to memorialize the losses of these of these young kids that are being killed in the community, but I also want to empower everybody out there.
I want to give give people information that they can use to advocate for themselves in their own community.
The bottom line is we can't continue to have these type of crimes in our inner city communities and and have uh have our politicians ignore them over and over again.
That can't happen.
I saw this past week when you had Chicago politicians uh uh saying the praise of an 18% decline in in in the murder rate in Chicago.
Now keep in mind Chicago has 528 murders right now.
They're dealing with 528 murders.
Last year they had 646.
Sean, they still rank number 10 in murders per capita.
That's nothing to saying any praise about.
That's 528 people that's dead.
The bottom line is we gotta go out here, we gotta empower our community, let people know that we want change.
And the only way to bring about this change is to elect the right politicians in office that are gonna make sure that they are protecting our police and protecting our community, Sean.
You know, I I just want I just uh know we can do better.
You know, say what you will about Rudy Giuliani and and put aside politics, because it's not about left or right, conservative liberal, democrat, republican, it's about lives.
It's a matter of of life or death is what it really comes down to.
And and you said that as well, uh um, Gianno.
And I if people would just stand back and say, we can't let this continue.
How do you let this continue?
Where is the sense of urgency when you see uh I can predict right now, guys, and and Gianno with a pretty high degree of accuracy.
How many people are gonna get shot in New York this weekend, Philly this weekend, uh, and Chicago this weekend.
I wish I couldn't make that prediction.
I wish I would hope that I'm wrong and nobody gets shot.
But you know and I know that I'm right, and you could make the same prediction.
Yeah, unfortunately, that's so true.
We look at the numbers just recently in the uh last few weeks.
Three-year-old shot, three-year-old shot, seven-year-old shot.
We're talking about babies here, Sean.
We're not talking about people who can really even walk and talk and and really have a place in this world just yet outside of their life growing.
You know, they shouldn't shouldn't have to, parents shouldn't have to live in fear, but that's where we are.
I think it's so important to have a very strong community conversation.
A lot of these murders that are taking place are African Americans who are killing each other.
The the sense of life has left many folks in Chicago and across the country.
They don't care about it, they don't feel for it.
And that's an issue.
That's something that has to be talked about.
We need to get tougher on crime, whether it be with police officers being able to actually do their jobs and not have to rely on people like Mary Lori Lifer who implemented a no chase policy where police officers are there in their cars and they're gonna chase the one in their cars, they gotta call their supervisors, or if there's a criminal who's running on foot, they can't run after them in those situations.
That needs to change.
But what also needs to change is this soft-horn crime prosecutor by the name of Kim Pop, who's dropped 25,000 felony cases of rape and murder alone.
These are really important cases where people aren't getting justice.
We see just recently from July uh of last year up until now twenty what almost three hundred ASAs have left her off.
We're talking about prosecutors that are needed.
They have a major workload.
They're not able to do their jobs.
We saw in last year alone of of all the crime that was committed, only twelve percent of it led to an arrest.
Then you look at what happened on the prosecution side, the numbers were even worse.
So things must change, but the community itself has to take accountability because these aren't people from outside of the community.
They know who these folks are oftentimes.
Things need to change and a another message for folks who are listening across the country because this issue is so paramount in my life now covering this issue and ensuring that there's justice for families.
If you know of any story a crime story where someone isn't isn't getting justice and you think there's a bit of media attention that can make the difference reach out to me on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook at Gianno Caldwell.
If you know any solutions to the crime issues, any policy that has lowered the homicide rate, the murder rate across the country if you know of any of those things, reach out to me on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook at Gianno Caldwell this we need solutions and we also need community involvement because the police cannot do it alone.
Just in Chicago, last point they're down a thousand detectives for the murder case load that they have that's how bad things are in the city of Chicago.
It's a multi pronged failure.
Well I want to thank all of you for what you're doing.
I want to give out the information.
We're gonna put it up on Hannity dot com so you don't have to if you're driving your car you don't have to memorize it.
Um it's happening this Saturday.
It's from twelve to three it's in Chicago and it's called the Save the Children Conference.
I I don't know is there any charge for this uh Bishop or is it for free?
No, there's no there's no charge free attendance at the it's at the New Beginnings church pastors by Pastor Corey Brooks right Trey um uh uh uh will be one of the people speaking Trey Penny will be one of the people speaking and and by the way one of the issues we'll deal with is also rebuilding families because long term we've got to look at how the liberal policies of this six last century de decimated the black family and how we rebuild black families and create mother father centered homes to raise these
children so that I have to run but I'm gonna tell you something I am praying for all of you.
Please save our kids.
Every I believe every every child comes from God.
That's what I believe.
And every child deserves to live in safety and security and we need law and order to accomplish that.
God bless your work.
Thank you, Bishop.
Thank you, Trey and thank you Gianna appreciate you all being with us.
Good luck on the conference on Saturday.
We appreciate you all being here.
Thank you.
The guy we serve is the God of justice.
So we're going.
Amen.
We'll continue.
All right 25 now till the top of the hour 800 nine four one Sean our number you want to join us.
This was pretty interesting.
So AOC the squad leader, the speaker of the real speaker of the house, Pelosi speaker in name only anyway she was doing a a town hall and heckler's asking you know if she will stop nuclear war.
You gotta listen to this.
Congresswoman none of this matters unless there's a nuclear war which you voted to send arms and weapons to Ukraine.
She's left the Democratic party because there are these okay you originally voted you ran as an outsider yet you've been voting beside this law in this way.
You're voting this started nuclear war with Let's why are you playing with the Lions American citizens?
You're playing with our lives there will be no neighbors if there's a nuclear bomb Wow now AOC is getting heckled.
By the way she should have been heckled for losing oh is it what wasn't it Amazon that was uh gonna build out all those high paying jobs in her district oh man that was a dumb mistake.
I mean the deal was done.
I mean property values were going up fifty percent for people.
And then she pulls the rug right out from underneath them.
Unbelievable.
All right let's get to our busy uh telephones here.
Let's say hi to Wayne Central New York.
Wayne hi, how are you?
Glad you called sir.
It's an honor talking to you, sir.
Well the honor's all mine.
Well I I just wanted to bring to white more the the play to people trying to pay their fuel bills this winter.
I called to uh get my kerosene delivery right you know I'm rural I'm about thirty miles from circus we're in the country and uh Kira C is over six dollars a gallon.
This is crazy.
I I mean I figured it out it's gonna cost like three thousand dollars to heat our home this year for the next six months.
Oh my gosh.
Wow.
Six dollars a gallon.
Well, excuse me.
I do get when I called and ordered.
My price was $590.
And because they they give me a 15 cent a gallon discount because I'm an army discharged veteran.
Which is, you know, it's cool.
They don't have to do that, but they do.
So it's $590 for me, so really it's $605 a gallon for kerosene.
I just know how do you live?
I mean, Biden and uh and his you know cohorts, you know, their attack on the energy industry is just ruined our quality of life.
Listen, it it doesn't matter if it's kerosene, it doesn't matter if it's uh propane or natural gas, it doesn't matter if it's heating oil.
Uh we're gonna get hammered this year.
And you know, I was reading an article yesterday out of Germany.
Oh, get over it.
Just put two sweaters on.
We don't have to sacrifice uh something as basic and fundamental as heat.
You know, as human beings, we we've advanced and we've we've created easier, more comfortable living conditions for ourselves.
Why would we want to go back?
I mean, the idea that sounds like Jimmy Carl.
Just wear a sweater, lower your thermostat.
I don't want to lower my thermostat.
I want the temperature the way I want it, as long as I'm willing to pay for it, and I don't want to pay ten times what I paid last year.
I mean, it's so beyond frustrating.
Now, I can afford it, but there was a lot of years of my life I couldn't.
And and what I remember living two years in an apartment that in my room we did not have heat.
You can ask my sister about this, Linda.
True story.
And anyway, I bought an electric heater.
And one night the blanket fell off the bed and onto the electric heater, and I wake up like choking to death uh because the room had filled with so much smoke.
It didn't go, it didn't create a flame, but it created a lot of smoke.
And it's a pretty you know, pretty scary thing.
This is what we're gonna tell people to do stuff like this when they have heating systems that would work if they can afford the oil or the gas or the kerosene, whatever it happens to be.
Yeah, but the problem is they can't afford it.
They can.
It's just that the government has decided that it's more politically expedient for them to make it harder for all of us because if we drive fear and debilitate the American people, and obviously everybody all across Europe right now is going through the same thing, then we become dependent on them.
And ultimately that's their goal is to create a complete and total global dependency on big government and cripple any sort of free job.
Germany is different.
Germany is not it's it's different, no, in this sense.
They're ahead of us.
No, they're not since Merkel's been in charge.
No, no, no.
I'm making a point here.
They abandoned energy independence because they gave in to their climate alarmist cultists members years ago.
And that's when they that's when they became reliant on Vladimir Putin and were doing multi-billion dollar deals, energy deals with Putin.
And that's when Donald Trump handed Angela Merkel the white flag.
At that time, we were we we were racing towards new production of energy in this country, which got us to a point we hadn't been to in 75 years, which was energy independence and an exporter of energy.
Joe Biden abandoned all that.
And as he kisses the ass of you know, all of these dictators, and as they shove the middle finger in his face, and they even not only did they say no to uh increasing production, they decrease it by two million barrels a day.
And then Joe Biden says, Can you do it after November?
So he wants foreign countries to influence our election.
Uh where are the Democrats uh on investigating that part of Joe colluding with OPEC and Saudi Arabia and even Russia, because they're part of this cabal, uh, that are dominating energy and laughing at how stupid we are.
And what an idiot he is.
You know, I'm watching, but of course, in Washington, all they're talking about for the four millionth time is January 6th, While they ignored the 574 riots in the summer of 2020.
That's where their head's at.
It's it.
This is insanity.
Anyway, appreciate the call.
Thank you.
Let's get back to our phones.
How are you?
Sure, and appreciate you taking the call.
You're a must-listen every day as we do, and you're a must-watch every night as we do watch you.
Lee Zeldon can win.
He's leading in Long Island.
A poll came out today, but not by enough.
He needs to win by a big margin in upstate New York, a big margin in Long Island for him to win this, and then he's got to stop the bleeding that is, you know, nine Democrats registered to one Republican.
He can win, though.
Let me get a couple of things off my chest, uh, Sean, and I'll make it quick.
And again, I appreciate you taking the time.
Um as far as the deterrent goes, let's get to Hokel first, okay?
Uh people kill people, not guns.
Uh what would be wrong, Sean, with ten years mandatory jail time if you're a felon that gets caught with an illegal firearm.
That's A. B. Stop and Frisk.
Bring it back.
C. Let's get a plain closed anti-crime unit throughout the five boroughs, Sean.
Let's do this.
We have to get deterrence in place.
Now, also, two uh Monday, Columbus Day, our our mayor, who is obviously unqualified, was interviewed by somebody that you know very well.
And the dialogue was he was passing the buck to the Albany lawmakers saying that he was handcuffed.
Another unqualified mayor.
We have to get tough.
We have to get Zelda in, and we're New York tough, Sean.
Things have to change.
There has to be a deterrent for the bad actors.
I'm sure you agree.
Listen, crime can be stopped.
We know how to stop crime.
It's through good policing.
Now, does that mean that every cop is a good cop?
No.
The vast majority of them are, overwhelming majority of them are.
They want to do a good job.
Everybody I know that's a cop, and I'm sure you know many as well.
They they went into policing because they want to protect and serve their community.
They don't mind putting themselves in harm's way.
They do it gladly, willingly.
It's not the highest paying job, although it can, you know, pays a decent wage if you're in New York or Suffolk County or Nassau County.
Um, but the reality is is now they they've got handcuffs on themselves.
They're not allowed to do their job.
And God forbid they try to do their job and and they're gonna end up on the other side of uh a jury, you know, well, being second guess for every decision they make.
We can solve the crime problem.
We've been able to do it.
When you have nearly 3,000 murders a year in New York City, and a mayor says, you know what, I'm sick of this and it's gonna end, and implements good policing policies, and you drive the number down to 300, we know how to stop it.
And the question is, where's the will to stop it?
And then rather than going in that direction to make sure every law-abiding citizen is safe and secure, we go in the other direction.
We defund the NYPD by a billion dollars.
We dismantle police departments, and then we come up with the idiocy of no bail laws.
It's insane.
This is the these look, 26 days from now, I cannot project the urgency I want to project in terms of how bad this really is.
It's it's all on the line, and I don't I don't like to make predictions on elections.
I like to give you a realistic snapshot.
And right now, I cannot say with confidence that the Republicans are gonna take the House and Senate.
I think the odds are much higher for the House.
We've got some tough races in the Senate.
We've got some tough gubernatorial races around the country.
So what I'm hoping is is that people have had it.
If you're better off than you were uh under Donald Trump with Joe Biden and the radical socialist democrats and the climate cultists that run the country, if you think you're better off, vote for them.
But if you see record high inflation and you see, you know, border chaos like we've never had and a record number of people illegally entering the country already this year, and on top of last year's record.
Uh, And if you like paying high gas prices and you like paying more for every product you buy in every store you go to because it costs more to produce it and it costs more to transport it, then vote for Democrats.
If you if you want law and order, vote for Republicans and fire these people with their insane defund, dismantle, no bail mentality.
If you're sick of your schools failing your kids, vote these people out that have aligned with this corrupt teachers union.
They have this unholy alliance.
And I I'm only one vote.
Nick, I'm one vote.
But I'm hoping that people are feeling what I'm feeling.
I think I feel the country is slipping away from us.
I feel like they're dragging us down a dark path of which, if they continue to be in power for any length of time, we won't recognize this country anymore.
And we will suffer needlessly.
These policies are a disaster.
And it's now ingrained in pretty much every single Democratic candidate.
I've never seen such extreme candidates, and I've been doing politics now since 1987 on radio.
That's when I first started.
It shouldn't be a horse race, Sean.
It shouldn't be.
It should not be a horse race November 8th.
It should be a blowout.
This is simple, Sean.
It's common sense.
Look at what's happened to your state, Nick.
Your state is a is a socialist Adam Schiffhole.
You're in the state too, Sean.
I'm as dumb as you are.
We're both dumb.
We need to get the hell out of here.
All right.
Nick, appreciate the call, buddy.
God bless you.
All right, let's say hi to Aaron.
He's in the great state of Ohio, the Buckeye State.
What's going on, Aaron?
How are you?
Hey, Sean, I'm great.
I have uh three words.
No joke, no high probability.
Uh term limit.
Term limit.
I have a three-letter word.
Job.
J-O-B-S.
I don't know.
I count four.
I'm going to start with two words.
And he starts with three.
Made in America, whatever it was.
Where's Jackie?
No, I have I have uh friends, co-workers, and family, Republican Democrat.
We don't really get along much anymore as we used to politically.
But the the first time you mentioned term limits, it's one thing.
I don't care what political side you're on.
Everybody agrees.
Nancy, Schumer, McConnell, the lifelong, that it's time for them to, you know, go.
We risk the chance of AOC and the new socialists coming in, but it's a risk worth not having them there their life.
How much do they make a year versus how much did they come out of office with?
You know, the million years.
Look at Raphael Warnock.
You know, he's he's he's he's doubled his wealth since he's been in uh in the Senate for like what, a year and a half?
It's ridiculous.
Uh 26 days, everybody.
The power is in your hands.
There's enough of us to change things.
Just as it's an all hands on deck moment.
I can't I can't express and translate the urgency I feel.
I hope you're all feeling it too.
I believe you are.
Thousand dollars a year.
All right, that's gonna wrap things up for today.
A great Hannity Nine Eastern tonight on the Fox News channel.
Oh, George Papadoples.
Turns out they wanted a Pfizer Warrant on him and on Fox News.
Who knows who else?
On top of the one million dollar bribe offer of the FBI to Christopher Steele and putting Danchenko on the payroll, the Russian subsource for Christopher Steele.
How insane is all of this.
Also, Marco Rubio, Steve Moore will be with us, Ryan's Previs, Stephen Miller, Leo 2.0 Torrell, and Jessica Tarlov, as we have the best election coverage on TV and radio tonight, set you DVR, Fox News Hannity, 26 days till these all important midterms.
See you tonight, back here tomorrow.
