Why The Majority Matters - November 17th, Hour 3
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup Information Overload Hour, 800 941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
All right, so Nancy Pelosi's out.
I know a sad moment for most of you in this audience.
I I I feel your pain.
Um I know you're suffering today.
You're probably down in the dumps.
You're probably really upset, trying some of you, and um maybe inconsolable at on some level.
Nancy Pelosi is now stepping down from all leadership in the House of Representatives.
Uh but anyway, uh she announced that she will not see seek re-election for House leadership.
Here's what she said.
My friends, no matter what title you all my colleagues have bestowed upon me, speaker, leader, whip, there is no greater official honor for me than to stand on this floor and to speak for the people of San Francisco.
This I will continue to do as a member of the House, speaking for the people of San Francisco, serving the great state of California, and defending our Constitution.
And with great confidence in our caucus, I will not seek re-election to Democratic leadership in the next Congress.
For me, the hours come for a new generation to lead the Democratic caucus that I so deeply respect.
And I'm grateful that so many are ready and willing to shoulder this awesome responsibility.
I've been saying I don't think most people really understand the magnitude of Nancy Pelosi giving up that gavel and maybe a little it'll hit people on the moment comes and the gavel is passed.
Uh, if you don't think that the majority matters, look at the last two years and the damage and the hearings and January 6th committee.
Look, whoever's in power, the majority, they get to pick the chairman of committees.
They get the subpoena.
They get to go out there and and they have the power of the purse behind them.
Now are they going to be able to accomplish their agenda that they ran on?
No.
Are they going to vote on their agenda to show the people in this country that there is an alternative way to this new Green Deal radical socialism?
Yes.
Uh, but with the power we just had Jim Jordan on earlier in the program today.
Uh this is going to be a massive investigation into corruption, abuse of power, including whistleblowers, as it relates to the FBI being politicized and the DOJ being weaponized.
And it also will result in investigations into the real origins of COVID 19, whether or not your taxpayer dollars that you give to the government, then it will funnel to the NIH of Anthony Fauci, and the NIH funnels it to Eco Alliance.
And is it even possible American tax dollars sent to the Wuhan Virology Lab ended up creating COVID 19?
Our money could have paid for that.
Uh, and yet the whole time everybody knew what was happening in that lab.
They knew gain of function research took place.
Many lied about it, and they also knew that they worked with coronaviruses, but they tried to peddle a fake conspiracy theory about this all coming from the quote, wet markets that they have in China.
Uh, I never believed it, but that's what their claim was.
Um now there's gonna be investigations.
Jordan has his investigation into the DOJ and the FBI, and uh also we have uh other investigations.
COVID 19 investigation origins will take place, and Hunter Biden and his laptop are all gonna take place.
That's part of the power that goes to the party in the majority, which is a big deal.
Anyway, joining us now is uh Greg Jarrett's written a great piece about all of this.
Uh the Biden, the brief Biden gloats, but the coming probes will wipe the smirk from his face.
Uh I think that's extremely well said.
I I heard on Fox earlier today when I was watching, that in fact they've been preparing for these investigations now for some time and how they're going to defend themselves against these investigations.
I don't know if there is a defense for the Hunter Biden laptop.
I don't think there is a defense when you have all these whistleblowers uh from the FBI and the DOJ.
I don't I I don't think there's gonna be a defense for the origins of COVID 19.
No, I think what they'll do instead is what uh the White House and the Treasury Department have been doing for a long time now, and that is obstruct uh the oversight duties of Congress.
Oversight is a critical function of Congress.
Americans expect and deserve honesty in public officials, Sean.
And when our elected leaders like Joe Biden and his family enrich themselves while jeopardizing national security, trusting government is lost and without accountability, respect for the rule of law vanishes.
So I think you're you're going to see a variety of investigations into the Biden administration, the Afghanistan debacle, the secret censorship program, the cover-up of the pandemic's origin, systemic corruption at the FBI and the Department of Justice,
the mismanagement and malfeasance at the border, but but that the top of the list, and you know, James Comer at Oversight in Congress has been preparing for this is the investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden.
Today they issued a 31-page uh very thorough staff report.
It's an interim report.
I read it.
It contains everything that I've written about for the last two years that you and I have talked about for the last two years, that the Bidens have banked tens of millions of dollars selling out America to foreign governments and businesses.
Hunter Biden appoint person for the family's criminal enterprises selling access and promises of influence to Russia, China, Ukraine, Romania, Kazakhstan, other countries over which Joe Biden exerted clout.
You know, the amazing thing is that they dovetail together, don't they?
Because uh the FBI has had uh the Hunter Biden laptop for the longest period of time.
What are we going on now?
Over two years, I think they've actually had it closer to three years.
And all this information has been out there and available and in their hands, and they haven't done a thing with it.
And when in fact uh this became an issue three weeks before the presidential election in 2020, uh by that time they should have known darn well that in fact it was authentic, and that Hunter Biden was in fact in trouble.
Uh, and they certainly know all of the references and implications of his own father on that laptop.
Oh, absolutely.
The the laptop is a damning indictment of Joe Biden's complicity in these influence peddling schemes.
We're talking about fraud and bribery and foreign influence uh corrupt practices act and fair violations, even racketeering is a potential here.
And this is where Sean, the whistleblowers are so vital.
They've courageously stepped forward to reveal the political bias that's infected uh these investigations at the Department of Justice and the FBI that were effectively shut down to protect Joe Biden and and the two biggest sygaphants and and suck-ups,
uh Attorney General Merrick Garland and Christopher Ray, director of the FBI, they've been running as you so aptly have put it, a protection racket to fend off any serious criminal consequences.
All of that ends now.
As a Republicans take the gavel, they not only receive the chairmanship of these committees, but important subpoena power.
And I I predict they'll have to go to court to get, for example, the 150 suspicious activity reports detailing the millions of dollars flowing into the bank accounts of the Biden family.
Uh, you know, that's critical evidence.
And you know, it's always been long-standing policy for Treasury to turn that over to Congress upon request.
Joe Biden reversed it and said, No, as to our family's uh suspicious activity reports, you're not allowed to have them.
Remember the 51 former intelligence Officials that said, oh, it has all the markings of Russian disinformation just before the 2020 presidential election as it relates to the Hunter Biden laptop.
It's funny, because Miranda Devine earlier today wrote one of them on Twitter, uh John Cypher, and then she had to point out that the guy blocked her after I asked him about the quote, dirty 51 letter that he signed, which falsely claimed Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian was a Russian disinformation uh operation.
The letter was actually info op to interfere with the 2020 election, uh one of many intelligence atrocities, she rightly points out.
And, you know, then of course you can go to another issue, and that is the complicity of social media.
You know, it was Twitter, you know, literally banning the story from being shared.
Facebook the same thing.
Um are they going to look into whether or not those are in-kind donations to the Democratic Party by withholding pertinent information, letting the public decide on their own whether or not something is valid or not?
Yeah, I mean, that was so crooked and unconscionable.
And you know, the 51 former Intel people uh talk about collusion to interfere in a presidential election.
They knew that when they put their signature to that document, claiming, oh, it's that the laptop it's just Russian disinformation.
They knew that was a lie.
And none of them have had the honesty or decency to admit that they misrepresented and deceived the American public in advance of an election.
Uh none of them have had uh the decency to apologize, no mayor culpas, not from a single one of them.
These are horrible, miserable human beings, uh, and Americans deserve to treat them with disdain.
Quick break more with Greg Jarrett on the other side, 800 941 Sean on number.
Uh, listen, our friends at the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, remember it was born on America's Darkest Day, 911, 2001, and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, they're helping America's heroes.
They've been doing it ever since.
And when a first responder or military service member doesn't come home and young kids are left behind, Tunnel to Towers pays the mortgage of the family, uh, they lift that financial burden, they bring the family stability, and for catastrophically injured vets and first responders, Tunnel to Towers, they build mortgage-free smart homes, giving our most severely injured heroes the ability to live more independent lives.
And through their veterans' homelessness program, Tunnel to Towers now is providing housing and services to all these homeless vets all across the country.
More than 500 helped in 2022 alone.
Uh because look, every vet who honorably served our country, whether in peacetime or at war, uh, they need our our nation's gratitude.
Anyway, they all put their lives on the line for their country, our communities.
They need our help now.
The entire Hannity team is on board.
We hope you'll join us.
They're asking for 11 bucks a month.
Go to their website, the letter T, the number two, the letter T.org.
The letter T, the number two, the letter T.org for the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
Broadcasting coast to coast, border to border.
And all over America.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, we continue with Greg Jarrett analyzing all of these investigations that'll be now starting with the new Congress.
You think that based on what we know now, does Christopher Ray survive this?
Does Merrick Garland survive this?
As long as Joe Biden's in the White House, absolutely.
Uh, he needs them.
He needs them to continue to cover up the evidence.
And they will certainly do so.
They've been fending off all efforts uh by, I think the U.S. attorney in Delaware to uh bring charges.
If there are charges, I think uh pressure has been applied uh to make them very light, sort of a sweetheart deal, probation, back taxes, but forget about things like fraud bribery, influence peddling, and and all of the other serious charges.
Greg, I mean, earlier today in this what, 31 pages of Comer, I mean, they're identifying 50 countries that the Biden family syndicate have done business with.
Um he said that Biden absolutely lied when he said he had nothing to hide during the campaign and that he never talked to his son one time about his foreign business dealings.
We have uh photo evidence we have on Hunter's laptop reference after reference implicating his father.
Uh Comer saying he personally participated in the meetings, the phone calls, documents show he was a partner with access to an office.
To be clear, Joe Biden is the big guy.
Tony Bobelinski, by the way, will be on Hannity tonight.
Uh and the investigation showing that the Biden's dealt with some of the U.S.'s greatest adversaries, including planning to sell one of the largest sources of Cobalt for election electric vehicles to the Chinese uh and and everything in between.
I mean, I I've never seen anything like this, especially from a guy that had no experience.
His name is Zero Experience Hunter.
Yeah, that's why I bring up RICO, uh, the racketeering corrupt influences practices act, both civil and criminal.
Uh the evidence on the laptop alone incriminates uh Joe Biden is complicit in his son's schemes.
And it's always been ludicrous uh for Joe to claim he knew nothing about these nefarious dealings, never spoke with Hunter about them because there were so many of them, and their actions were so pervasive in collecting millions of dollars from countries.
I mean, I m my estimate is that more than a hundred million dollars poured into the Biden family coffers with Joe as an expected beneficiary, as you point out the big guy.
Photographs and emails uh confirm it, so to visitor logs uh during the Obama White House, the elder Biden meeting constantly with his son's partners.
Uh one of them logging 19 visits to the White House uh to visit Joe Biden.
So you know that's the other thing.
And Comer was clear.
This is an investigation of Joe Biden, the president of the United States, and why he lied to the American people about his knowledge and participation in his family's international business schemes.
He said we'd love to talk to people in the Biden family, specifically Hunter and Joe, and uh he goes on to say our investigation is about Joe Biden, and we already have evidence that would point to the fact that Joe Biden was involved with Hunter Biden on these issues, and as you say, I think in the end it's gonna be a lot more than a hundred million dollars.
Yeah.
Uh I I talked to an investigative reporter who estimated it's closer to two hundred million dollars.
Uh, which is why it would be so easy for it, you know, Hunter Biden to simply, you know, pay a huge amount and back taxes and penalties to get rid of the whole uh criminal uh charges uh by the U.S. attorney in Delaware.
So, you know, um i it's abundantly clear that Joe Biden was involved in this.
I mean, you know, they flew together to China on Air Force Two and started immediately.
Ten days later they get the deal with the Bank of China.
Right.
Uh only because of the constraints of time, I gotta let you go, but uh this is gonna get very interesting very fast.
Uh Greg Jarrett, great analysis, and uh everything you've been reporting on is now coming to fruition, and it's all going to be proven true.
Uh thanks for being with us.
We appreciate it.
Quick break right back.
All right, 25 now to the top of the hour.
Thanks for being with us.
Uh 800-941 Sean, you want to be a part of the program to our busy, busy phones we go.
Lee is in Louisiana.
Lee, hi, how are you?
Glad you called.
Doing great.
I'm uh the tenure listener.
Basically, I'm kind of frustrated, but I wanted to get straight to the point.
Uh basically I'm uh independent voter.
I voted for Trump, and uh I love his policies.
I think he was doing great for the country, but I feel the Democrat Party has really put a tag on him as being toxic as as being a person that's against our democracy.
I just wanted to know where do we go from here?
What's next?
What how do we combat this?
Because I feel they're right on the verge of getting to a one-party rule in the country.
Uh the answer is the American people have I I guess they're gonna have to suffer a lot until finally the suffering becomes so unbearable they realize uh I think I want to go back to $2 a gallon gasoline.
I think I want secure borders.
Um I think we need to refund the police and get rid of these idiotic no bail laws.
Um I I I think I want my kid to learn reading, writing math, science, history, and computers and and get to that point.
Um I can't control the electorate.
I can only inform people that choose to listen and choose to watch my shows.
And we try and get the information out there.
Look, I am not at all without hope.
Um there's certain things about this election that are odd to me.
I can't figure it out.
I think there's a new paradigm that has emerged.
I don't know how much of it might have to do with redistricting.
Um I don't know how much uh of what happened may have had to do with young people.
It seems like young people, the issue of abortion had a big big was a big factor in this election.
Young people may be hoping that their student loan forgiveness program that that would be free cast to them.
They seem to come out and negate some of the older voters, and and usually young people are not they don't tend to come out in the numbers they came out in.
You know, I I'm not gonna use the word autopsy because it's kind of cliche-ish.
Uh but uh but I certainly want to examine and and do a deeper dive into the numbers in this election and and find out exactly where you know why things went down the way they that they did.
I believe that my theory of accelerated migration is real and Republicans really need to pay attention to that.
Sadly, I also believe that Republicans, if they if they can't get the system of voting that I want, I want voting election day to be a national holiday.
I want partisan observers to watch all of the voting start to finish, and then all of the vote counting start to finish, uh, like Canada does and France does and Great Britain does, and all these other countries do, uh, and and make exceptions for the military and people that are are traveling, they can't vote on election day.
They should have an opportunity to have the voices heard and they can apply for an absentee ballot and the sick and the elderly, etc.
and firm.
But short of that, um, we're now stuck in a system where it seems very clear that all over the country Republicans don't trust this early voting system and they're not taking advantage of it or mail-in voting and and they don't trust that and they're not taking advantage of it.
And then you're starting out these campaigns and you know, all of a sudden you election night comes around and and boom, all these thirty thirty percent down on election day.
You can't start out an election that way.
Now, unless and until Republicans get control of enough governorships and enough state houses, and then hopefully have the right motivations to have a fair system in place.
This is the system we got.
There's nothing I can do.
I can't snap my finger and change it, nor can anybody else.
So if that's the system that they have so passionately embraced, we've got to unfortunately play the game with the rules that we're stuck with.
And I mean we're stuck with bad rules.
What happened?
There's no excuse for Arizona, no excuse for Alaska, no excuse for California, no excuse for Nevada and the absolute disaster that unfolded again after the election.
But you know, that's my best answer to you.
I know it's maybe not the perfect answer, but it's not what I want.
I can tell you that.
And voter ID should be a critical component in all of this.
I want integrity and I want confidence in the results, and and that would apply fairly to everybody.
Have so much integrity, nobody would ever question the results ever again.
Definitely.
I think everybody wants this uh, you know, most people who want fair elections want the same thing.
It seems like the Democrat Party has circumvented that process.
But I thank you for your optimism and hope.
And you're a great American.
Thank you, my friend, and I'm glad uh don't wait ten more years to call in.
You're welcome anytime.
We'd love to have you back.
Thank you, sir.
Uh Alex North Carolina, you're next on the Sean Hannity show.
Hey, Sean, how are you?
I'm good, sir.
How are you?
Good.
Thanks for taking my call.
So I uh I'm uh thank you for your show, and I'll just get to the point.
Um I know Trump announced that he's gonna you know run for president again.
I really want us to really consider those who are conservative.
Uh you know, the most he can do is one term.
Four years.
That's all he's got.
And We need to consider maybe rallying behind someone that can give us two terms.
You see what Joe Biden has done.
You see what the state of the country is in.
We need someone that can go the distance.
And I don't hear anyone bringing that point up.
Now I know Ron DeSantis hasn't officially announced that he's running, but I really think we need to consider someone like that that has shown that he can, you know, lead his state well and provide results and not get behind the celebrity of Trump if if that's if if that's what people are doing just because they're gonna vote.
Let me throw another alternative at you.
What if we have the presidency for three terms?
You know, uh look, I I think I think your instincts are I think Ron DeSantis has done a phenomenal job for the state of Florida.
Uh I think Donald Trump as president, his policies were tremendously successful.
And ultimately, again, I'm I only have one vote in all of this.
It's gonna be, you know, primary voters that decide in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Super Tuesday.
I mean, here we go again, right?
Um it's a little early for me to really want to start down this road, but um the president did make his announcement, but um I'm all in favor of any strong, solid conservative leading this country to prosperity.
And I think we we look, we know how to be energy independent.
We have the resources to do it.
Uh we know that less uh bureaucracy and lower taxes work.
We know how to control our borders.
Uh we know a classical education means for our kids.
We know what it means, so we know how to keep people safe and secure and enforce law and order in this country.
These are not complicated issues, and it's just a matter of having the right people and the right positions of power that'll that'll get the job done.
It's not really it's I it's not that complicated.
Sean, I can I ask you a question, though.
I know you say the right people, and I completely agree with you, and I think Trump was uh crucial for 2016 and what he did and defeating Hillary and everything else.
But what can you speak to the already name calling a candidate who has I mean a politician who hasn't even put his hat in yet?
I mean, it where's the class that Ronald Reagan had?
Where are our leaders that can have show some restraint without resorting to name calling?
I just think that's so un it's it was disheartening to hear that.
Listen, I mean, uh you know everybody knows Donald Trump.
He's a known commodity, if you will.
He's a all right.
So with somebody that fights like he does, uh, you know, comes moments like this.
Uh think back to the first campaign and his comments about John McCain.
They they come to mind.
Um but people know what they're getting with with Donald Trump.
They also know what they're getting in terms of policy success.
You know you're gonna get the border wall finished, and you know you're gonna have secure borders.
You know that you're gonna have constitutionalists uh you know pick from a list he gives you ahead of time.
You know that you're gonna have lower taxes, you know you're gonna regain energy independence, and that that's up to you to balance that uh out in your head.
I'll take the guy personally with the mean tweets uh that occasionally uh says things that offend people, uh like, you know, the media, what do you say about the media though, or threat to democracy or something like that?
They got all bent out of shape about.
Um but I'll also um or you know, you can go in another direction.
It's a little early for me, but I just want somebody that's gonna go to Washington, and I don't mind somebody that's willing to break a few things, uh you know, plates in the kitchen to get the job done and cook a great meal and get the country on track.
That doesn't bother me.
With you, Sean.
I just think that his arrow should be for the people that are in opposition to policies and ideology, not the people that are on the same.
I would I would tend to agree with you.
You know, I I think in that sense he could bring more people over to his side.
Some people, you know, feign outrage.
I'm not as outraged about this.
I grew up in New York.
I don't know, maybe it's because of that.
And uh that is not uncommon where I grew up, and interestingly, it's where he grew up.
It's it's fairly common that that you fight back.
He's got a but uh, you know, and Ron DeSantis in his own ways of fighter.
Um I've watched him take on the media and be a force of nature.
He doesn't take their crap either.
And nor should either one of them.
Anyway, one of the great things Republicans have going for them, in my view, is we've got a lot of stars in the Republican Party.
I can name a lot of people That are stars.
I can't name any in the Democratic Party.
Who who's who's next?
Joe Biden?
Gavin Newsom?
You know, tell me the next Democratic Nancy Pelosi gonna come back.
You know, where is the Democratic Party?
Is it gonna be Liz Cheney?
You know, or she's just gonna run independent to try and hurt the Republican Party as much as she possibly can, completely forgetting that the Democrats and the media tried to call her father a murderer, a war criminal, and a crook.
Um interesting times we live in.
Anyway, uh let's go to Rick is in Florida, uh, the free state of Florida.
Rick, how are you?
Glad you called.
Good.
Thank you for taking my call.
I'm actually sitting here mourning the loss of Nancy as speaker.
But with that said, I hope um I hope that what's that?
Are you okay?
You need you need a little I'll get through the day.
I'll get through the day.
But I I do hope the committees that are coming in to invest in the house.
Well me to send over little uh a little, you know, comfort animal, a stuffed animal, I'll have it, you know, brought right over to your house.
That would be nice.
Thank you.
Appreciate that.
Soak up the tears.
But I I do hope that the committees that come in will actually get something done.
Um, you know, and and really not just let it hang out there.
But the one of the reason why I called yesterday, I was listening to you with Bill O'Reilly talking about the purple states and the mass migration from the north to the south.
And I call it accelerated migration.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
It's a big the big sucking sound, the vacuum.
I mean, they're moving at a rate of I think three to one or something, people moving out versus moving in.
And I think the purple states, what's gonna happen is the tax base is gonna be eroded, therefore they're gonna have to raise taxes.
The crime is gonna go, continue to go on, and people are gonna probably say enough's enough and start with the.
They're already saying it.
I mean, the state of Florida, I mean, the migration is massive.
It is ma same with Texas, same with the Carolinas, same with Tennessee.
They're leaving.
And and I say accelerated migration because it all got accelerated.
People got fed up with the shutdowns, they got fed up with the mandates, uh, they got fed up working at home, they got fed up with their kids not having in school learning, and they said, I'm out of here.
And and now that means that these states that I just mentioned are redder, but it also means that those quote swing states, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan come to mind.
They they now are that much more difficult as they lose conservative population to these redder states, and and it's gonna be harder for anybody to win the presidency as a result of this.
Yeah, I was thinking that in in those terms that what will happen is again, people will need to make up that tax revenue.
The states will need to make up that tax revenue, but raise taxes.
You're you're gonna have to find a way to get more people to come into that state and the tax if they raise the taxes on the people that are there, they're gonna they're gonna start to rebel.
That's my uh that's my thought theory on that.
So keep our fingers crossed on that one.
The other point I wanted to make, you know, uh it was the same thing.
Yeah, go ahead, real quick, go ahead.
Trump and DeSantis on the same ticket.
It would probably mean that one of them would have to move out of the state, given how the Twelfth Amendment factors in with the elector, you know, picking the president and vice president voting for them.
If it comes too close, then what happens is the the um they they can only vote for one in the state.
In other words, they can't vote for both presidents.
I I think it's a little early to go there, and and I know why Donald Trump announced, because he wanted everybody to know I am in.
And if you want to jump into the gladiator arena, welcome aboard.
You know, it's it's it's open for everybody.
Um I do think that we have that that would be a powerful combination to say the least.
And I think uh uh look, Ron DeSantis, if if he does in Florida what he at some point in his life and a career, um, I could definitely see him being president for sure.
100% and do and do a good job.
Do a great job.
Uh anyway, and remember, he got started with the support of Donald Trump.
All right, that's gonna wrap things up for today.
We'll be at the Patriot Awards tonight, nine Eastern Hannity on the Fox News channel.
You don't want to miss the allegations, investigations into all things the Biden family syndicate.
We'll check in with Congressman James Comer and Tony Bobalinski, who sat in meetings with Hunter and Joe Biden.
He'll tell us his story.
Uh also Senator Ron Johnson grilling Christopher Ray on the Hill about Hunter's laptop.
Remember that?
Uh yeah, we're gonna be talking about that.
We will refresh your memory.
We'll check in with Jason Chaffetz.
Uh we'll have the latest on the Georgia runoff with Herschel Walker.
And then we'll be talking to Laura Ingram and a whole bunch of our Fox friends while we're down here in Florida for the Patriot Awards.
We'll see you tonight.
Back here tomorrow.
Thank you for making the show possible.
