The FBI gave President Biden a heads up on the investigation into his storage of confidential documents but, as Hannity runs through on the show, the President has lied about many things in his life....is this more than just a farse investigation?

| Thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us. | |
| Toll free. | |
| Our number's 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Voice a little scratchy today. | |
| Apologies in advance. | |
| I know why. | |
| Why? | |
| Because I talk too much. | |
| Because you keep screaming at your TV for all the terrible news we have. | |
| I won't doubt I won't deny that has happened a time or two, but I'm not, I'm not I'm not going there right now. | |
| Uh oh, you're gonna love this. | |
| So the um the Columbia Journalism Review is finally caught up to us, and they realized that the reporting over Trump Russia collusion was nothing but a lie. | |
| And the New York Times and the Washington Post did a horrible job uh in their coverage and and did a grave disservice. | |
| And Bob Woodward is lecturing his colleagues. | |
| Why didn't he do it publicly at the time? | |
| Why didn't he tell us all at the time that all of that was true? | |
| All right, we'll get to that. | |
| Let me get to the news to uh begin our day here. | |
| Um the FBI has now searched Biden's Rehoboth Beach House a full three months after he was first caught hiding classified documents, which by the way was on November 2nd. | |
| That was six days before the election. | |
| Uh, we didn't find out about that until 68 days later. | |
| And in the interim, they had appointed a special prosecutor to go after Donald Trump, but not after Joe Biden. | |
| And in the meantime, they made arrangements not to raid um the the Penn Biden Center at UPenn, but they just went in with the cooperation of Joe Biden, so they say, which they had with Donald Trump, but they chose not to use because Christopher Ray and Merrick Garland, they had no idea that Joe was gonna end up being worse than Donald Trump, and and here we are. | |
| Uh, we're gonna get to the issue of all of the document, the trove of documents at the University of Delaware. | |
| One has to ask when are they going to search for those? | |
| And when they search there, boy, they are in for a search of their life, and that is not hyperbole on my part because at the University of Delaware. | |
| Now, remember that these documents have been there well over 10 years. | |
| They delivered 33 pallets of documents in two trucks, 1800 cartons of papers, and 415 gigabytes of electronic records. | |
| So the question is, when are they going to investigate there? | |
| Because if it can happen everywhere else, you would think it would happen there too. | |
| So here's what we know the FBI finally gets around to searching, again, not raiding, searching Joe Biden's Rahobath Delaware Beach House. | |
| Now, one of the arguments the left is making the media mob is lying about is Donald Trump wasn't cooperative. | |
| That's not true. | |
| We know that the FBI had full unfettered access to Mar-a-Lago. | |
| Nobody stopped them from coming in. | |
| They were invited in. | |
| And when they searched Mar-a-Lago, they were went to this one storage room where eventually during the raids, the quote, documents that Trump had uh that they felt were to be sent back to the National Archives. | |
| Um, the FBI was in that room long before the raid. | |
| The FBI made no effort or attempt to work with the Trump administration to get those papers out of there if they had even identified that they were top secret or classified. | |
| And as a matter of fact, the FBI left and then called back a day or two later and said, Would you mind putting a padlock on that door? | |
| They complied. | |
| They said, sure, whatever you want. | |
| Not a problem. | |
| What makes you think that that's not full cooperation? | |
| Now this goes to the heart of whether of of what Jim Jordan's investigation in the Judiciary Committee is all about. | |
| Whether the FBI's been politicized and the Department of Justice has been weaponized. | |
| That's what that's what all of this is about. | |
| So after finding top secret classified materials or compromising materials, anyway, when they find it in five separate locations of Joe Biden, well they finally now got around to Joe Biden's Rehoboth Delaware House. | |
| This is three months after Biden's lawyers revealed that the big guy was hiding classified documents at the Penn Biden Center. | |
| And like all other FBI searches, the terms of today's beach house search were negotiated for days, if not weeks in advance, uh, which means that the FBI deliberately forfeited any element of surprise, uh, given Biden and his lawyers plenty of time. | |
| Uh we'll be there on Thursday. | |
| If something's not there, nothing we could do about it. | |
| So gave them all the time to do whatever they wanted to do with what might have been there or not been there. | |
| I don't know. | |
| So, you know, it's not only possible, it's more than likely that Joe Biden have his team go through the Rehoboth Beach House in the course of negotiating with Joe Biden's DOJ about a time and a place of when they would, | |
| you know, go to the Rehoboth Beach home, and why wasn't the same accommodation and the same courtesy afforded to Donald Trump and why the sirens uh blaring and and and why the guns were drawn and why everybody was kicked out of the house at Mar-a-Lago. | |
| And then we're asking for the security cameras to even be turned off. | |
| Thank God they never turned them off. | |
| Anyway, the same thing frankly goes for Hunter Biden's Malibu Beach House. | |
| I have no doubt the FBI has to eventually get around to searching every one of Hunter Biden's crash pads, not until Biden's plumbers have had a chance to maybe extract any problematic documents. | |
| Now, why do I feel confident in predicting that Biden would do this? | |
| Because it's simple. | |
| Joe Biden has fundamentally shown himself to be a completely dishonest man. | |
| When Joe Biden repeatedly said I'd never one time had a single conversation with Hunter or any family member about foreign business dealings, he's just flat out lying. | |
| This is the guy that gives speeches that he plagiarized from other people. | |
| Neil Kinnock is an example. | |
| Um this is the guy that lied about being first in his law class, claiming he was once appointed to the Naval Academy. | |
| That was a lie. | |
| This is the guy that promised that he got arrested trying to visit Nelson Mandela. | |
| Another lie. | |
| This is a guy that continues to insist that his son, Bo died in Iraq. | |
| It's not true. | |
| He died from cancer. | |
| It's sad, it's tragic, but he didn't die in Iraq. | |
| He lied when he tried to blame his late wife's death on a drunk driver, but her crash death, absolutely a tragedy. | |
| I hate that to happen to anybody or any family. | |
| Uh, but it the other driver was not drunk. | |
| Joe Biden has also lied about not discussing Hunter Biden's business deals, as I said, and his partners, and the list goes on and on, and yet this is the guy who the FBI is warning weeks in advance that they'll be searching his various residences for incriminating evidence. | |
| The FBI has been giving Lion Biden more than enough time to do what would come naturally to him. | |
| So do I trust any of this? | |
| No, I don't. | |
| Jim Jordan's investigation, I think will will show a lot of prejudice within the FBI and uh a lot about our dual justice system. | |
| Now, the FBI did confiscate Biden's notes after the Rehoboth Beach House search. | |
| That we know the FBI conducted this search. | |
| And they said no documents with classified markings were found, according to Biden's lawyer, the AP reported, consistent with the process in Wilmington, the DOJ took for further review some of the materials and handwritten notes that appeared to relate to his time as vice president. | |
| When news of the FBI search broke early this morning, Bauer said that the Biden team will fully support and cooperate and facilitate the investigation. | |
| Yeah, that's meaningless to me and anybody else. | |
| But you know, there's so many other issues here that are associated with all of this. | |
| You know, we now know that Biden's personal office was searched by the FBI way back in November. | |
| Now they found out about these documents November 2nd. | |
| Why didn't they tell the country before the election? | |
| At this at around the exact same time, they were appointing a special prosecutor for Donald Trump. | |
| We know that they were also searching the Penn Biden Center, but they didn't tell us about that either. | |
| They didn't tell us about the November 2nd discovery until 68 days later. | |
| They failed to mention the top secret documents were found for that long a period of time. | |
| You know, and they hid this from the you, the American people, until it finally got leaked to the press. | |
| And as of now, we still have no idea why the classified documents were uncovered in the first place. | |
| You know, the so proc the self-proclaimed most transparent administration in White House in history, they're not telling us a single thing. | |
| And so far we have batches of classified documents discovered on five different occasions, multiple locations, and many of these were from his days as vice president. | |
| Others dated back to his days as a U.S. Senator. | |
| And as far as we know, you know, that they got a trove of information locked away at the University of Delaware. | |
| You know, I just mentioned the amount, the voluminous amount of materials. | |
| You know, and they have claimed, as Jonathan Turley wrote, that the president effectively have locked away records by giving them to the university, and they the university in exchange has claimed for a decade that they're working to organize and catalog the documents. | |
| Well, it's over ten years old now. | |
| Um I think they've had enough time to do it themselves. | |
| Maybe we should have a group from the FBI that is not politicized look at the materials. | |
| Anyway, but neither Biden or the university is allowing anyone any access to that material. | |
| So, in other words, a public university that you pay with your tax dollars actively protecting a political candidate that's now presidents, and we got into this some yesterday surrounding Biden's classified document scandal. | |
| That involves zero experience Hunter. | |
| There's no doubt that the father and son duo work together on these sketchy foreign business deals. | |
| We'll have Peter Schweitzer on later. | |
| And Greg Jarrett, look at China for one. | |
| You have a hundred thousand dollar shopping spree, a five million uh five million dollar no interest forgivable loan, one point five billion dollar deal with the Bank of China, and no experience that we can find that Hunter would be the appropriate person to do business with. | |
| Why not JP Morgan or Goldman Sachs or Deutsche Bank, name any place that actually has real professionals that do this for a living? | |
| And the big report that was in yesterday's New York Post, you know, that Hunter Biden had access to all of this. | |
| He lived in the home where these documents were. | |
| And then we have the claim that Hunter might have actually tried to sell some of the material. | |
| Quote, documents dating back to 2011 on his laptop from hell showing that Hunter offered to sell intelligence on Russian oligarchs to the U.S. aluminum firm Alcoa for 55,000. | |
| This is the same, you know, time that you know his father was the vice president. | |
| This is the same time his father was leading the U.S. diplomatic efforts in Eastern Europe. | |
| This is the same time that his father is given special access to intelligence in the region. | |
| That's gotta be disturbing. | |
| And then on top of it, you know, this is when Hunter was in the throes of his drug and alcohol and sex addiction, and probably, like a lot of people that are heavy users of drugs, probably desperate for money. | |
| You know, the report in the Daily Mail that he engaged in this ridiculous, dubious relationship with you know, assistants that worked under him, one in particular, and where Hunter would occasionally send her Apple payments. | |
| By the way, I can't send Apple payments. | |
| Can you do that? | |
| PayPal, I don't know how to do any of that stuff. | |
| Well, you know what? | |
| I know how to do it. | |
| You want to practice with me? | |
| And you can send me some payments and I'll show you how to use it any time. | |
| I'll send you a dollar. | |
| You can buy whatever you want. | |
| Or Venmo or any of those. | |
| You know what? | |
| I can send you I can send you ten bucks and you can buy one of those disgusting green projectile vomit puke shakes that you like to drink. | |
| You should really go into advertising. | |
| That discussion was amazing. | |
| Amazing. | |
| And then you drink that crap every day, or the disgusting orange projectile vomit soup. | |
| That's right. | |
| Anyway, one uh at one point Hunter texted that he would only compensate this woman if she chatted with him and put a camera in her shower. | |
| Wow. | |
| Sent a $500 payment, then asked her to FaceTime him in the nude. | |
| Multiple other sexual requests. | |
| By the way, where's the Me Too movement? | |
| Where's the feminist movement in this country when it comes to all of these things? | |
| Anyway, 800-941 Shawn or number if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| All right, interesting winter, freezing conditions in many parts of the country. | |
| February in particular can be really cold, very unforgiving. | |
| Days are short, sunlight, hard to come by. | |
| But what if I told you, regardless of the climate, you could be poolside all year long? | |
| Well, you can with the Michael Phelps swim spot by our friends at Master Spa's, uh, whether you need to relax, work out, spend time with your family. | |
| Oh, the Michael Phelps swim spa checks every single box. | |
| It comes in a variety of sizes to complement even the smallest backyards, and Linda swears by it and uses it all winter long. | |
| I swear by it, I get in it, I swim in it, I relax in it. | |
| Anthony does, the kids do. | |
| It is phenomenal. | |
| I cannot say enough good things about Master Spa. | |
| I have some good other news for everybody as well, and that is we have a special offer for you. | |
| When you go to their website, MasterSpace.com, go to the upper right hand corner, enter the promo code Hannity. | |
| You can save up to a thousand dollars off your master spa where you can exercise, relax, recover with the only hot tub and swim spot brand that I trust. | |
| You're going to love the guys at masterspas.com. | |
| The new Sean Hannity show talking about what's right for America with a renewed commitment to keep you up to date on the breaking news stories. | |
| All right, as we continue along, 800 941 Sean, you want to be a part of the program. | |
| So we're learning a lot, but what we're really learning more than anything else is that there is a two-tier system of justice in this country. | |
| That they knew on November 2nd, six days before the election, that Joe Biden, like Donald Trump, had top secret classified materials, and they chose not to tell you before the election. | |
| They chose not to tell you for sixty-eight days. | |
| And now the question that deserves to be answered, needs to be answered is why? | |
| Why did they wait so long? | |
| Why did they work with the Biden team in terms of, oh, we're gonna go to your house, Joe. | |
| Is that okay? | |
| When is a convenient time? | |
| They went to the Biden Penn Center and they never told us about that. | |
| That was mid-November. | |
| Why didn't they tell anybody about that? | |
| At the very time they were appointing the special counsel to investigate Donald Trump. | |
| Donald Trump had allowed the FBI access. | |
| The reason that they thought that classified materials might be in the storage room is because the FBI was given unfettered access by the Trump people to that room. | |
| And when they requested a padlock, they got their padlock put on. | |
| As of now, we have no idea why the classified documents were uncovered in the first place. | |
| We have no idea they won't tell us a single thing, the most transparent White House in history. | |
| Um we don't really know the full. | |
| We don't really know what, if anything, they found in these handwritten notes at the Rehoba Beach home today. | |
| Uh, we do know that there's a trove of documents, 33 pallets of documents delivered on two trucks with 1,800 cartons of papers and 415 gigabytes of electronic records that sits there and has been sitting there for over a decade at the University of Delaware and nobody will allow anybody to go near them. | |
| Well, when is the FBI gonna go to the University of Delaware and demand that they get the right to search out what they have there? | |
| Because if we're gonna have equal justice application of our laws, that would seem like the appropriate thing to do at this time. | |
| National Archives officials were ordered to cover up the Biden document scandal before the election. | |
| I'll tell you about that on the other side of this break. | |
| And that's according to Jim Comer and the UK Daily Mail report that uh Jim Comer thinks that the National Archives was blocked from releasing a prepared statement. | |
| He told me that last night. | |
| We'll see you next time. | |
| Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm. | |

| Sean Hannity is back on the radio. | |
| 25 to the top of the hour. | |
| Our friends at the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. | |
| They are building their let us do good village. | |
| It's in Lando Lakes, Florida. | |
| Now it's the first of its kind, a community of about 110 homes, uh, about a hundred homes for Tunnel to Towers program recipients. | |
| That means gold star families like the Thorntons moved in first. | |
| Now the widow Danielle, her children, uh Jalen and Kinsley were able to move into their brand new house after the death of their husband and father, Robert, a U.S. Army sergeant. | |
| Now, Danielle calls this home a blessing in the let us do good village gold star families of fallen. | |
| Also families of fallen of first responders, catastrophically injured first responders and service members. | |
| They're all neighbors, they're all heroes, they're all families. | |
| They live in one community. | |
| They help each other heal. | |
| They know what each other's going through. | |
| Children grow up together, support one another, and with every mortgage-free home, the foundation makes good on their promise to do good and never forget all of the sacrifices our nation's greatest heroes have made for this great country and our communities. | |
| So they're hoping, and I'm hoping too, that the Let Us Do Good Village is the first of many communities like it. | |
| And they're asking all of us and everybody on Team Hannity's on board to donate 11 bucks a month to the Tunnels to Tower Foundation, the letter T, the number two, the letter T.org. | |
| That's the letter T, the number two, the letter T dot org. | |
| Um, 25 now. | |
| By the way, Linda, you're a big football fan, right? | |
| Oh, the biggest. | |
| You know what cross the plane means yet? | |
| Means score. | |
| Cross the plane. | |
| Means score. | |
| Getting better. | |
| Because every day, Katie keeps coaching you on all the questions you got wrong the day before. | |
| There might be some truth in that. | |
| There might not. | |
| I don't know. | |
| You sound like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. | |
| Is there truth to that? | |
| Listen, if it works for the liberal, I'm gonna exercise my liberal rights. | |
| Okay. | |
| Well, that's apparently that's working. | |
| Anyway, did you do you know what the big football announcement is today? | |
| And stop no, stop looking at Katie. | |
| No, I know, because it's sad. | |
| Why is it sad? | |
| I don't know. | |
| It kind of hurt my heart a little bit that video. | |
| What, Tom Brady retiring? | |
| Just the way he said it, like it was so heartfelt and so nice, and all I could think of in my head is the amount of haters that are out there that are gonna make fun of him. | |
| And he was I thought he was very sincere and kind, you know. | |
| I don't know. | |
| I just liked it. | |
| Listen, if you're in the public eye, you can't read the comments of these keyboard warriors in their underwear psychos that that live online in their basement every day. | |
| You just can't. | |
| I just don't get why people like it's funny, you know, like we were talking about the other day, and it's like, you know, it takes a certain type of person, a certain type of personality to be famous, to be the best in your field, to be the GOAT, right? | |
| So, in my opinion, it's like, okay, so yeah, he's a handsome guy who was very successful, he made a lot of money, he plays great bowl, he's won seven Super Bowls. | |
| Like, I guess there are things to be envious of, but I'm happy for him that he had such a good life, and you know, he's trying to be a good dad and all the things, you know. | |
| I wish him only the best. | |
| And look, this was not an easy year for him. | |
| His divorce was very public. | |
| Um, I think people should mind their own business and they have no idea. | |
| Um, and then I read this morning that his ex-wife is now doing a big vanity fair shoot and tell all on what happened in their family. | |
| And I'm like, why do you want to tell the world that stuff? | |
| What it why what is the reason for that? | |
| Yeah, but today she wrote a nice note to him, and she was like, you know, I'm sorry that you retired, you know. | |
| Yada yada. | |
| I I can understand that being the wife of a superstar who in her own right was a superstar and having to basically put her own career on hold and they had children together. | |
| But you know, I I don't know the end I have no idea, but I'll tell you one other thing. | |
| I don't want to know. | |
| And I don't think people should want to know. | |
| I think only people should pray that the best happens for them, their family, their kids. | |
| Yeah, but see, the problem is is that everybody lived through their happy moments, right? | |
| They did people magazine spreads, they did TMZ stuff, they did podcast. | |
| And over fifty percent of marriages fail, so that that puts them in the majority case. | |
| No, no, no, you misunderstand me. | |
| My point is is that when you live your happy moments in the public eye, then when things go go wrong, then the public is involved because they feel like they know you, they're a part of your world, and they feel bad, so they get involved. | |
| Now there are people who get involved for the wrong reasons and they're not very nice about it, and then there's other people who are actually like, oh, that sucks. | |
| Sorry, you're getting divorced, that stinks not fun. | |
| Yada yada, and there's kids involved. | |
| Well, look, the Kardashians have mastered the art of taking their private lives and bringing it publicly. | |
| That to me is fair game. | |
| Yeah, they're famous for being famous. | |
| They're nothing. | |
| It's ridiculous. | |
| Well, I mean, it's not really ridiculous because they turned it into a pretty good way to make a lot of money and they have perfect billions of dollars. | |
| They took the idea of Seinfeld, which is a show about nothing, and they made it into a lifestyle. | |
| It's incredible. | |
| Well, then give him, you know, if people want to walk people obviously want to watch it. | |
| That's not my thing, but a lot of other people do, and they they follow the day-to-day drama, and it's always so much dra I hate drama. | |
| It was a lot of drama. | |
| I can't stand the drama. | |
| It's too much. | |
| Who needs I just it's like every everybody that got COVID that was famous. | |
| I got COVID. | |
| I'm like, I hope you get well. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| Just I shut up. | |
| I can't. | |
| Why don't they feel a need to tell the world that they got COVID? | |
| Because pretty much everybody in the world at some point got it. | |
| But what was the need to say it? | |
| People saying, Annity, you must be sick now. | |
| I just I have a throat issue. | |
| It has nothing to do with anything. | |
| You know what I'm really sick of? | |
| Whenever anybody gets sick now, they're going, it's not COVID. | |
| Yeah, no, you stop. | |
| I'm not asking about the Rona. | |
| I don't care. | |
| I'm like, it's your business. | |
| Who cares? | |
| Nah. | |
| Um, but I but I don't understand the compulsion why people in the public eye think that they they feel the need to to share all of this crap. | |
| I don't want I don't why am I more private? | |
| Like, live your life. | |
| You don't have to you can share what you want, but I mean people have to share everything towards. | |
| But people are very they're like egomaniacs, you know, they want to talk about things. | |
| It's like, you know, like I was saying the other day, the kids were asking me if I had a Facebook account, and I said no. | |
| And they were like, they looked at me like I was an alien, and I said, I have no desire to put pictures of what I had for breakfast and how beautiful the plating was on Facebook. | |
| So the whole world could see that I had a carrot muffin. | |
| What a bunch of nonsense. | |
| This is what people are posting. | |
| I cooked if I cooked you the breakfast, then it would be worth posting because my breakfast was big picture, right? | |
| Hannity steak. | |
| No, I don't have bacon eggs. | |
| Steak and eggs. | |
| Oh, sometimes. | |
| Sometimes, but I often will have uh, you know, chopped meat. | |
| You know what I think? | |
| I think you're really hungry. | |
| You've been talking about food a lot lately. | |
| I think you're starving yourself in this workout thing you got going on. | |
| I am always working out, and I'm always I do it I that's why I get up early every morning. | |
| You're hungry. | |
| Hungry. | |
| You should have some carbs. | |
| Okay, I don't eat that many carbs. | |
| Occasionally I cheat. | |
| We could send you some of uh Linda's food to fill you up. | |
| Okay, those disgusting, you know, projectile green people. | |
| Today I'm eating raspberries. | |
| I didn't even bring a shake in. | |
| I don't even want to hear about raspberries, you know, or that disgusting projectile vomit puke orange drink you drink. | |
| Oh, yeah, remember we had that last week though. | |
| I had the green one. | |
| That was nice. | |
| It was disgusting. | |
| Well, I feel you know, the world has my stomach sick, you know. | |
| I have to look at Biden and Powell and Harris and all the other idiots in charge, and you know, why not, you know, wash it down with a little bit of vomit. | |
| So we got a list of all of Biden's lies, because he tells us lie about this Amtrak conductor. | |
| It turns out the Amtrak conductor was dead at the time that he said, you know, that that he had done more miles. | |
| Just as ridiculous. | |
| I'm sorry, what did you say to me? | |
| I said cut one. | |
| We have a montage of him lying about that. | |
| Yeah, I just want to talk about it though. | |
| Uh the Trump administration didn't order enough vaccines. | |
| No, they ordered a billion. | |
| So he just lies about it. | |
| Nobody in the media mob confronts him on it. | |
| Uh we we've seen the average number of people getting vaccinated every day nearly double since I took office. | |
| No, that wasn't true either. | |
| Or when he said, Moody says my infrastructure plan will create nineteen million jobs over ten years. | |
| No, they said two point seven. | |
| You're not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations. | |
| That's like my favorite lie. | |
| Because all of us were told the big lie that if you got the vaccine, that in fact you would never get COVID. | |
| Did you see this analysis by Cheryl Atkinson today? | |
| I sure did. | |
| This is pretty scary. | |
| And I've talked to a lot of people, and my we all know about myocarditis and the, you know, I'd I'd like to get the definitive study on the impact of COVID slash vaccine boosters, et cetera, et cetera, on myocarditis. | |
| She wrote the story about an autopsy of two teenage boys that died days after they got their second FISA COVID-19 shot. | |
| Anyway, she points out that um autopsies were conducted on two team teenage boys, one in Connecticut, one in Michigan. | |
| They died within a few days of their second dose of FISA's COVID vaccine. | |
| One boy had ADD and was obese. | |
| The post-death examination showed that both had global myocardial injury. | |
| We report autopsy results, including microscopic myocardial findings of two teenage boys who died within the first week after receiving the FISA COVID-19 dose. | |
| The microscopic findings are not alterations seen with typical myocarditis. | |
| This suggests a role, you know, that that what do they call it? | |
| Cytokine storm. | |
| That was the storm that was killing everybody with the alpha strain of COVID. | |
| And if it got in your lungs, all of a sudden, next thing you knew is you couldn't breathe. | |
| And your oxygen levels would drop precipitously. | |
| I know people that had oxygen levels at 94, 95, it would drop to 90 to 85 to 80 into the 70s in like record time. | |
| I remember I was going nuts at the time. | |
| Anyway, this uh suggests that what may occur or they think might have occurred in these two young boys' cases is excessive inflammatory response, as there's also a feedback loop as it relates to the cytokines, and the first week after the second vaccine dose was found to be a main risk window. | |
| And that, but that doesn't get now, by the way, Cheryl Atkinson is not a member of the vast right wing conspiracy at all. | |
| I mean, she's a real solid, you know, shoe leather reporter, just works really hard, does great work, uh, also is a very nice person. | |
| We've had her on the program many times. | |
| And you know, you know, I've talked to varying people, and there's different responses from everybody, but I just wonder at the end of all of this, and I'm just thinking out loud. | |
| You know, what are we gonna find out because of everything being emergency use authorization? | |
| What are we gonna find out that maybe nobody anticipated? | |
| Now that part scares me. | |
| And, you know, certainly what I've heard from some people and doctors, even funeral directors. | |
| I had a funeral director guy told me we're seeing people with a lot of blood clotting that we'd never seen before. | |
| Um, I know people now that have had more blood clots that or friends of mine telling me they have blood clots than I've ever heard in my entire life. | |
| Is it related? | |
| I have no absolutely no data to back it up at all. | |
| It's just a question that I would like to see science research as it relates, is this virus related? | |
| Is it vaccine related? | |
| Is it, you know, what is it? | |
| Or maybe it's nothing at all. | |
| Maybe it's just coincidental that these people in my life happen, you know, to have these incidents. | |
| I don't know. | |
| But I'd like to know. | |
| We don't have a lot of good news on the economy. | |
| ADP jobs report shows the private sector hiring is slowed dramatically in January. | |
| Manchin has teamed up with Republicans to protect retirement funds from this idiotic, you know, Biden green energy uh cash grab. | |
| Uh, I don't know if you remember this. | |
| We talked about this in great detail, but this uh every Republican senator and Democrat Joe Manchin are now introducing legislation to terminate the Biden administration's new environmental social governance rule, which they say politicizes retirement savings for 152 million Americans, and they unveiled this rule in November. | |
| It goes into effect January 30th, and it would allow retirement plan managers to factor environmental social issues into investment decisions. | |
| I don't want environmentalism in any way factored in to my retirement plan, and people are counting on that, you know, in their hardworking years that it's going to be there for them when they retire. | |
| You know, we pointed out yesterday, two-thirds of American consumers are living paycheck to paycheck, even 51% of Americans that make a hundred grand a year. | |
| You say, well, how can that happen? | |
| Well, they would were not anticipating how bad the Biden economy would get. | |
| They weren't factoring in a $10,000 Biden inflation tax because of his horrific economic and energy policies. | |
| By the way, the Chamber of Commerce has now pledged a lawsuit over outrageous environmental rules, and they said they're going to go forward with this rule requiring companies to speculate about how climate change could impact their business models. | |
| You know, I they're making it impossible for America to compete. | |
| We have unilaterally disarmed with the with literally the lifeblood of the world's economy producing our own energy. | |
| And they bought into this green new deal nonsense and alternative forms of energy, but yet the technology doesn't exist. | |
| So in the meantime, we're dependent on other countries that don't give a flying rip about our country, and we're sacrificing national security, and we're paying a fortune more for every item we buy because of the higher cost of gas and diesel, and we're paying more to heat and cool our homes and fill our gas tanks. | |
| It's insane. | |
| And we don't need to be, you know, looking to countries that don't like us for the lifeblood of our own economy with the natural resources that we have. | |
| By the way, the Fed today today raised uh interest rates yet again, a quarter of a point. | |
| I don't know when this is gonna stop. | |
| At least it's lower than uh uh 75 basis point increase. | |
| New Jersey mayors, oh, you're gonna love this. | |
| They say these wind farms may be responsible for this recent wave of whale deaths. | |
| Asbury Park Press, a group of New Jersey Shore mayors are calling for an immediate moratorium on offshore wind energy development till federal state scientists can assure the public that the ocean noise related to the underwater seabed mapping soil brings and other turbine construction activities, poses no threat to the whales. | |
| By the way, Humpback whales showed up on the coast of Long Island the other day. | |
| It's been showing up on the these dead whales showing up in New Jersey, New York, Leto Beach, Nassau County, where I live. | |
| Man, I've never heard of that in my life ever. | |
