	Hour two, Sean Hannity show.
	Thanks for being with us.
	800-941-SEAN, if you want to be a part of the program.
	The legality of all of this is what matters in the end.
	And you have attorney after attorney after attorney, liberal and conservative, interestingly, Democrat and Republican, uh, saying that this is a case that is on shaky legal and even ethical ground.
	Uh anyway, joining us now, two attorneys, Horace Cooper, legal commentator, co-chair of the Black Leadership Network Project 21, Greg Jarrett, Fox News is with us.
	Uh, welcome both of you.
	Good afternoon.
	Greg, I start with you.
	Tell me the man, I'll show you the crime.
	Yeah, I mean, that's the infamous boast of Joseph Stalin's uh murderous uh secret police chief.
	Uh and and you know, it's apt uh comparison here because you know, basically Alvin Bragg, you know, targeted Donald Trump.
	So he's the man.
	And he assigned a team of people, dozens and dozens of people, to scour Trump's personal records, unlimited resources devoted to this.
	He went through his personal life, his business affairs, purely partisan, trying to find the crime.
	He targeted the man, now finding the crime.
	Because it is one-sided, it's fundamentally unfair, and of course the old saying you can buy the hand sandwich.
	Well, Bragg's also counting on a regular jury at trial, uh, convicting a ham sandwich, simply because the judges expected to be, you know, liberal.
	The jury will be liberal, and they will ignore the facts, they'll ignore the evidence, they'll ignore the law, and he's counting on the fact that the jury will hate Trump as much as he does and convict him.
	Which means in the end that this case may go on and on, but eventually, I'm pretty confident it would get tossed out on appeal, but by then, the damage is done.
	I think that that's that's the part that everybody's got to be concerned about.
	Let me read a statement if I can, Horace Cooper.
	It seems that the star witness in this case is gonna be uh Donald Trump's former personal attorney, uh Michael Cohn.
	Uh, this is a quote from the New York Times, February 13th, 2018.
	I am pro I am Mr. Trump's longtime special counsel, and I have proudly served in that role for more than a decade in a private transaction 2016.
	I used my own personal funds to facilitate a payment of 130,000 to Miss Stephanie Clifford.
	Now, neither the Trump organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Miss Clifford, and neither reimbursed me for the payment, either directly or indirectly, and the payment to Ms. Clifford was lawful and was not a campaign contribution or a campaign expenditure by anyone.
	Well, I think Greg Jarrett is correct.
	Um, there's a great piece, by the way, but I think he's uh correct about the disposition of the jury to look and judge this individual, uh a former president of the United States, based on a partisan basis, rather than the law.
	I guess I have a little bit of a difference, and that is, particularly when you're talking about a witness uh like you just described, the former president's uh counsel, who uh has been convicted, has actually been sent to prison, and was uh imprisonment particular because of his unwillingness to say truthful things when the time came to be truthful.
	He's convicted for lying.
	When the judge, whoever that is, gets this case.
	And that's why I I have a little bit of a difference, and that is I think the judge, whoever that is, is not going to want this tar baby uh uh thrown in his lap.
	The jury may be fine, but the judge is wondering whoever he or she may be, what's going to happen with the final disposition?
	Is it gonna have my name about the missteps about evidence that was allowed in about a uh procedural positioning uh that should not have occurred?
	And I think uh that there is likely going to be a greater willingness to allow interlocutory appeals so that we're not talking about a trial not happening before uh the elections of twenty-four,
	but we may not have a trial start until twenty four or twenty-five, or this case may end up because it's so weak, because it's so novel, that it may end up just being stillborn.
	Now Bob Costello went before the grand jury yesterday and he came out and he spoke to reporters, Greg Jarrett, and he said uh that in fact when he spoke to Cohen in twenty eighteen, Cohn said he'd made the payment on his own and that it was his idea, not Donald Trump's.
	Michael Cohn did this on his own, he said.
	I said, Well, why would you do that?
	He said, Because I wanted to keep this secret, even secret from my own wife, and Costello said, noting that Cohn had taken out a loan to make the payment, and he said that Cohn told him I didn't I did not want Melania Trump to know, I didn't want my own wife to know.
	Now, when you look at his his background, um, and this is directly from the Southern District of New York, um, they made the announcement after his conviction that he was convicted of charges of tax evasion, making false statements to a federally insured bank, campaign finance violations.
	The plea was entered followed the filing of an eight count criminal information which alleged that Cohn concealed more than four million dollars in personal income from the IRS, made false statements to a federally insured institution in connection with five hundred thousand dollars in a home equity loan,
	and in twenty uh sixteen caused two hundred and eighty thousand dollars in payments to be made to silence two women who otherwise planned to speak publicly about their alleged affairs with a presidential candidate, thereby intending to influence the twenty sixteen presidential election.
	So he's somewhat contradicting himself if you're to believe Costello.
	And by the way, I've I've had other sources tell me that he quotes bragged about having done this on his own.
	Right.
	You know, uh what you've just described is a miserable, awful human being, Michael Cohen.
	I hate to say that about anybody.
	Uh and it's amazing to me that you know MSNBC still puts Michael Cohen uh on the air.
	Well we know why they put him on, because he doesn't like Donald Trump.
	He hates Trump as much as they hate Trump.
	Cohen is an inveterate uh liar, a prodigious liar, and one of the nine convictions uh was lying to Congress.
	So, you know, when he originally says in 2018, Trump didn't know about it, I did it on my own.
	It was done not as a campaign contribution, but to protect him for personal and commercial reasons.
	And now he says the exact office opposite it, it invites the question.
	Was he lying back then or is he lying now?
	And you know, I doubt even he knows, because the problem with liars is they lose track of their lies.
	And to think that this district attorney is making Michael Cullen the pivotal star witness in the case against this trumped up case against Trump is absurd and it's offensive.
	So if he's the main witness and he's contradicting himself, and he was convicted of lying, part of his conviction.
	Uh convicted on multiple accounts, pled guilty on multiple accounts.
	So he's a an ex-con who's admitted to being a liar.
	And now he goes before the jury and he says, No, I what I said then isn't true, but what I say now is true.
	Um, how will that go over even with a liberal jury in New York?
	You know, it's very much like Alec Murdoch, isn't it?
	I mean, a guy who told so many lies for so many years, ripped off so many people, uh, and then he takes the witness stand and admits that he's a terrible, terrible liar, but I want you to believe me now.
	And of course, the jury in South Carolina, where I am right now, uh convicted him quickly.
	Uh, I would hope that Horace is right.
	I would hope that a judge would stand up and and take a look at this cockamany legal theory and say, uh I'm sorry, you can't bootstrap a campaign finance uh federal offense to a misdemeanor, uh, state crime that is itself in serious doubt.
	And then, of course, you've got the statute of limitations that's got to get around.
	I I would hope a judge, as Horace says, would stand up and toss this case out on his ear.
	Is that possible?
	Do you see that potential?
	Horace Cooper.
	Well, I do, and and as I say, the issue is that it will stain that judge's reputation because judges don't get the benefit of, well, this case is special.
	This case is unique.
	You're going to apply a creative precedent or apply a precedent.
	I imagine whoever this judge is going to insist that appellate courts concur with the prosecutor's idea of how you uh take a misdemeanor,
	take uh a statute of limitations that has told, uh graft it with some kind of conspiracy charge and make a federal campaign violation statute that is normally enforced by the federal government and turn that into a relevant matter for the state of New York.
	I would predict that the trial judge would want to hear from appellate court as to whether or not that is something that's going to be allowed.
	When I was in criminal law school class, uh it was often said, well, let's just try to get it to the jury and let them decide.
	And my professor reminded me that it was the job of the judge to see to it before the jury opined on a serious matter that they were appropriately doing so.
	There just isn't.
	And and no one's mentioned, by the way, this former prosecutor who's written a book and profited on the information that he had insider access to, showing that he had his axe to grind.
	There are a number of issues here that make this not a case to just dump on whose ever number pops up as a judge.
	Jurors might be inclined to go along and let this happen, but judges have to be careful.
	All right, quick break more with Horace Cooper and Greg Jarrito's our legal team uh continues this analysis of the Manhattan District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, as we continue.
	What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
	Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
	Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
	It's almost a dirty word.
	One that connotes conspiracy theory.
	Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
	Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
	We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
	You put two and two together.
	Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
	Benghazi is a rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
	I'm Leon Nafok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
	This is Fiasco Benghazi.
	What difference at this point does it make?

	So down a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
	Observation, Greg Jarrett, that in fact the statute of limitations has already run on both federal and state charges.
	I know you read the the column that he put out.
	It's a very powerful column.
	Uh and then Alan Bragg is out of time.
	I mean, why do we have statute of limitations if they're not gonna apply it?
	Yeah, uh, you know, Bragg is is gonna try to argue, well, the pandemic should extend the statute of limitations, and Trump was out of the jurisdiction uh during a certain period of time.
	All of that's nonsense.
	I think the judge, if he's motivated, will look at this and say, sorry, it's not a timely case.
	This is a seven-year-old case, and it was more than enough time to bring it.
	The Feds looked at it, chose not to.
	The FEC looked at it, chose not to.
	Uh, even Bragg's predecessor uh spent countless hours over years examining it, and in the end, he left office without taking action.
	There was plenty of opportunity for the government to take action if they felt it was appropriate.
	They never did.
	And it's pretty obvious to any intelligent, sentient person that this is an egregious abuse of power, corrupt weaponization of the law for political gain.
	And Bragg is simply contorting the law in a brazen attempt to inflate his case because he hates Donald Trump.
	And this EA who directed this all, Mark Pomerant, who wrote this book, explains in his book why he's the zombie case, he calls it.
	Yeah.
	He said, quote, because Trump posed a danger to the country and the ideals that mattered to me.
	Wait a minute.
	Disagreeing with somebody's political views or having personal animosity.
	Prosecuting somebody.
	That's a serious breach of ethics.
	Palmarant should face disbarment.
	You know, it's it's just going to be very interesting to watch this unfold.
	Um, there's been a lot made by the media, and I went through this in great detail earlier in the program.
	Um, how Trump said protest, protest, protest.
	He's calling for violence.
	That's what he's doing.
	Forgetting, of course, that Kamala Harris said, beware.
	They're not going to stop, meaning the riots in the summer of 20 before election day.
	They're not going to stop after election day.
	They're not going to let up.
	They shouldn't let up.
	Over at CNN, they were saying, uh, show me where it says protesters are supposed to be polite and peaceful.
	You know, I can quote WBUR, MPR, AOC, quote, the whole point of protesting is to make people uncomfortable.
	Activists take that discomfort with the status quo and advocate for concrete policy changes.
	Popular support uh often starts small and grows to folks that complain, uh, protest demands uh make others uncomfortable.
	That's the whole point, and I can keep going.
	MBC, Don Lemon, CNN, Nancy Pelosi responding to a journalist asking about the mob tearing down a statute in Baltimore.
	Well, people are going to do what they do.
	Uh doesn't sound like they were all that worked up over those calls for protesting.
	Last word, Greg.
	Yeah, protesting is protected speech as long as it's not violent.
	Uh and and you know, all of us have the right to go to our school board meeting and and voice our objections over CRT or COVID mandates.
	We can protest out front.
	Uh, and you know, the protest uh over government action is an American tradition, and as I say, fundamental.
	Fundamental.
	Uh, I gotta let you go, not that I don't want to talk to both of you.
	Uh I know Greg, you're gonna be on TV tonight.
	We always love having you, Horace.

	Toll free, our number is 800-941 Sean.
	If you want to be uh part of the program, uh, you know, we've gone over all of this from the get-go here.
	Um, if your lead witness is a convicted felon and can and admitted liar, how does how is that going to go over with a jury?
	You know, when it when you have, and and I know a lot of people use the word hush money, but non-disclosure agreements are signed every single day of the week, probably thousands of them every single day.
	And by the way, it is all legal.
	You know, it's it when you say well, it's that that infers that something is is a miss here.
	That that is not the case.
	All right, before we get to our busy phones, uh let me remind you about legacy box.
	This is the greatest idea.
	I wish I thought of this company, uh, because millions of people are now using legacy box.
	So if you and every family member goes through your attic, goes through your closets, goes through your garage, and uh everywhere in your house, basement, and you look around, what are you gonna find?
	You're gonna find old family photos, you're gonna find camcorder reels, maybe real to real tapes of of your family, maybe your parents left it for you.
	Um the thing is these are irreplaceable heirlooms and they're deteriorating and at risk of heat, mold, fire, not to mention you know, magnetic tape like what's used on a VH VHS or a camcorder.
	You know, that was only made to last 10 to 20 years.
	Now you put all of this stuff in a box, and at Legacy Box, they will hand digitize everything.
	You get back your originals, and then all of these family memories will be shared now and saved now for generations.
	Anyway, right now they have their nine dollar video tape ski uh sale that's sixty-five percent off.
	There's never been a better time to convert your entire collection.
	Anyway, to get this special deal, just go to legacybox.com slash Hannity.
	Legacybox.com slash Hannity for their nine dollar tape sale.
	Uh, and again, that's legacybox.com slash Hannity.
	And if you go there, you unlock the special offer.
	All right, let's get to our busy phones as we say hi to Dan in New Jersey.
	Dan, hi, how are you?
	Welcome to the program.
	Hey, Mr. Hannity, how are you doing?
	I'm good, sir.
	What's going on?
	Happy Tuesday to you.
	Yeah, happy Tuesday, right?
	Um, not to derail from the uh the whole Trump thing here, but going into border security.
	We know there's a problem.
	Homeland Security knows there's a problem, border security knows there's a problem, military knows there's a problem.
	Why can't the higher-ups in those departments say, in light terms, screw this president?
	We're gonna defend our country.
	We're gonna stand there and we're gonna stop people from crossing over that don't belong crossing over.
	Why can't we just make it happen?
	They don't want to make it happen.
	We know how to control the border.
	We control the border.
	We control the border when we had a different president.
	It's that simple.
	It's not complex.
	It's really that easy.
	Over they don't they don't want to, and Chuck Schumer let the cat uh cat out of the bag after the midterm elections when he said he wants to reward illegal immigration with uh amnesty.
	And I think uh look the way I look at it, and I say it very differently than other people.
	I think the Democrats, they are they are looking at something of great, great value.
	Like, for example, if you go to certain countries, you can actually buy citizenship.
	You can buy a passport.
	Did you know that?
	No, I didn't.
	Right.
	You can buy a passport, you know, as you know, in some cases 100, 135,000.
	And then you will you you are considered a citizen.
	You could have what's called dual citizenship, American citizenship, but you'll have two passports, and you could buy it.
	But citizenship, if you want to buy, if you want to be a citizen of Australia or New Zealand, it's like a 10-year process and it costs millions of dollars because it's something of great value.
	If you want to be a citizen of the United States, We don't charge you.
	We just ask that you follow our laws and come in legally.
	We can't let everybody in, but we do let a lot of people in every year.
	I'm not against immigration, but I do want a background check, so we know you don't have radical associations in the middle of a pandemic.
	I want a health check.
	And and you have to show that you're not going to be a burden on the American taxpayers.
	I don't think that's too much to ask.
	And then I don't care where you come from at that point.
	Welcome to our country.
	And if you want to work towards staying in our country, you can work towards getting your green card and then uh work towards, you know, becoming a full-fledged citizen.
	I'm fine with that.
	I'm not even looking for the money.
	I agree with you there.
	All right, my friend.
	Thank you for a good call.
	Appreciate it.
	All right, 800, 941 Sean is on number.
	You want to be a part of the program.
	Uh Sharon is in Texas.
	Sharon, how are you?
	Hi, Sean.
	I'm great.
	Thank you.
	Thanks for um all you do to focus us in the uh right direction.
	Um I'd like to comment on the indictment uh or the possible coming indictment of this this uh radical uh prosecutor up there, this uh what are they calling him the Soros?
	That's what um down in Florida, uh Ron DeSantis called him the the uh Soros uh appointed uh prosecutors he said.
	Yeah, uh if he's he's very invested in making sure that uh we have very weak uh prosecutors.
	I mean, I went through this guy's history.
	It is unbelievable the crimes and the and the lack of punishment for serious violent crimes, even uh his record is atrocious.
	Dershowitz himself said this is the biggest example of prosecutorial um um prosecutor, what what was the word he used?
	Prosecutorial misc misconduct, that's usually those two words usually go together.
	Um uh abuse.
	He said abuse.
	It's the biggest example of prosecutorial abuse in the history of our country.
	And our friend Mark Levin last night, he's all worked up, of course, and he said that the Republican Party should start a call for an investigation of all the non-disclosure agreements of all the politicians up there in Congress.
	By the way, I would guarantee you in the DA's office in New York there are have been probably numerous non-disclosure agreements because they're legal.
	Right.
	That's why let me tell you what uh for example, let's say you're a multimillion dollar corporation, right?
	And and somebody sues you and maybe maybe they want a million dollars.
	Okay.
	First thing you're gonna do is weigh how much time, effort, enthusiastic, and money you're gonna have to spend to defend yourself.
	Number two, um, how long it's gonna take.
	Number three, if you're a public entity, the the negative fallout for shareholders or the negative fallout for other employees, or there are all sorts of considerations.
	So it's rather than take it to court, pay the lawyers, they would rather go into it's called a nuisance settlement, and wouldn't almost every time include what's called a non-disclosure agreement.
	You'd pay the money to save money in the end and save potential negative press in the end.
	It happens every single day.
	That is not unusual.
	Um now, do I like that system?
	No, not really, because you know, people could know if they sue for just the right amount of money that big companies aren't gonna fight back, it's not worth it to them.
	They do a uh uh, you know, a cost benefit analysis of it, and they decide this just isn't worth it.
	Who cares?
	They'll pay the settlement and they'll move on.
	You know, so that this would be like a classic case.
	Now, it gets a step further when somebody says, either you pay me this money or I'm going to go public.
	That would be a threat.
	And now you have a whole different area of law that you're you're potentially moving into.
	Well, I like that term nuisance, a nuisance settlement.
	And that's exactly what this this woman is, Stormy Daniel.
	She's a nuisance and a nuisance settlement.
	That's a good term.
	Well, but it leads me to my real point, and that is that the Democrat, this is an effort of the Democrat Party to drive the narrative to deflect from what they themselves are really doing.
	It's a rerun of of um the Christopher Steele dossier and the Russian collusion when really it was Joe Biden who's got the crime family syndication that's colluding with the foreign nations uh our enemies.
	And he's been actually doing that, and they had to accuse Donald Trump of doing it, taking drag him through Mueller investigation, impeachments, all this stuff.
	It's all to deflect from what the Democrat Party's actually doing.
	Listen, if they can keep anybody on their heels in court, distracted full time, uh to them that that that's a good thing.
	The law actually be damned for a lot of people, and that's the sad part of this.
	You know, that what's interesting in what's developing here, if you would have asked me over the weekend what I thought the odds were that an indictment is coming, I would have said 99%.
	I'm now at about 72% and declining quickly.
	There have been there are people that are intellectually honest, and those legal scholars out there that are screaming that this case is on very, very shaky legal grounds, and likely the statute of limitations has passed, and they're making a crime uh they're making a law up that doesn't exist.
	Uh add to that, you have a very tainted witness uh that is contradicted by somebody else, and probably there'll be others that contradict us.
	Uh, I think just tells you everything you need to know about the case.
	Um now, you have to also factor in that this is a New York City jury.
	You know, there's a couple of places no con no conservative needs to be, and that is a court of law in New York or Washington, D.C. or Fulton County, Georgia.
	Um, not exactly friendly conservative territory where I think people can get fair trials.
	Uh, but that's my take.
	Anyway, I appreciate it.
	Uh Don Lake Ronconcom, a next Sean Hannity show.
	Don, big Don, what's going on?
	How are you, sir?
	Welcome aboard.
	Sean.
	Oh, always a pleasure to talk to you.
	Thank you so much for taking my call.
	Hey, Sean, I got I gotta ask you.
	What do you what is in this phony prosecutor, Alvin Bray?
	What's in it for him?
	This total joke of a what's you I can name a couple of things that it's why he's in this.
	Um, I believe he was elected specifically because he's weak on crime.
	He's uh he was elected, and the people that promoted him to this level and supported him to this level, he's just fulfilling a mission that they agree with.
	Uh in terms of him, the the possibility of him looking really awful at the end of this, are very high.
	And it's I I do believe at this point you have enough people that have spoken out loudly enough about how this is shaky, unethical, legal ground that that they're moving into.
	Um there's a look.
	The FCC FEC passed on it, the feds passed on it, the former DA passed on it, and even Bragg passed on it until a lot of pressure was brought to bear after this this one clearly anti-Trump uh prosecutor wrote this book that it was negative a brag.
	Well, it you know what it seems to me, Sean, he's a he's he's looking for a book deal, a movie deal, to be a footnote in history, that he arrested a president or more money from Soros or all of the above.
	Because that's uh that's the state of the country that we're in now.
	Pretty scary times, Big Don.
	We've been through a lot together.
	This is this is new territory, I'll put it that way.
	I got one more thing for you.
	Can Congress investigate him for uh not living up to his responsibility for protecting the people of New York?
	Can they bring him up?
	Uh I didn't hear.
	Bring up who?
	Can Alan uh Alvin Bragg.
	Yeah, Brad, but listen, as far as I'm concerned, he has a uh he has a fiduciary responsibility and a duty to uphold the law.
	He's not doing it.
	As I went through all these cases that he just passed on, or all these weak sentences that he gave out, or all these plea deals that he gave to people.
	We're talking about violent criminals, but but he's more interested in this, and I think for a lot of the reasons you stated.
	So, you know, but uh the best way to kick somebody out of office is vote them out.
	You know, I wonder, I really do.
	I wonder if Elon Musk is going to be proven correct in predicting and warning that this indictment's gonna backfire and end up with a landslide Trump election.
	That could happen.
	All right, thanks, Big Don.
	Always great to talk to you.
	800 941 Sean.
	If you want to be a part of the program.
	Quick break, right back to our phones, toll-free.
	It's 800-941 Sean if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
	He's got the information you need and the solutions you want.
	This is the Sean Hannity Show.
	All right, let's head right back to our busy phones.
	Karen in Texas.
	Karen, you're on the Sean Hannity show.
	Hey, Sean.
	This is nothing personal here, Sean.
	Okay, so I don't All right.
	Let me let me have it.
	You give it to me as hard as you got.
	Here it comes.
	I am sick, sick to death of hearing you.
	Everybody that has a voice claim that Biden is weak.
	Biden is not weak.
	He's no weaker than an 18-year-old football player on the field.
	Wait a minute.
	You're gonna compare Joe Biden that he's as strong as an 18-year-old football player.
	Say in college or high school.
	That's what you're claiming?
	Yes.
	Absolutely Sean.
	And let me ask you this.
	And this is every day we get Joe Blunders, the guy that can't even walk up the stairs of Air Force One without tripping half the time.
	Let's just play this montage of Joe, and you tell me if this guy is mentally alert to you.
	Listen.
	The political coverage.
	look Some of the political players and some of them.
	Let me ask a rhetorical question.
	No, I'm gonna say to me, Karen in Texas, that you don't see that he is weak, frail, and a cognitive mess.
	Do you really you really believe he's sharp?
	Hear me, hear me out, Sean.
	I'm not talking about his cognitive ability or his well, all right.
	Let me go one by one.
	Do you believe he is cognitively uh impaired?
	He's he's absolutely probably eat up with Parkinson's, and yes, he is cognitively.
	I don't think it's Parkinson's.
	I think he's got a real significant cognitive decline.
	Is that a fair statement?
	That's a fair statement.
	All right, and you're gonna tell me that that Joe Biden that you watch on stage is is as strong as an 18-year-old football player.
	You really believe that.
	Sean, what is I am saying?
	He is doing exactly what the Democrats tell him to do.
	You do not have to be.
	You said to me he's as strong as an 18-year-old football player.
	Do you believe you stand by that comment?
	As far as doing what he is told, absolutely doing what he is told.
	Most 18-year-old football players don't do as they're told.
	I can tell you I had an 18-year-old athlete that I raised.
	But anyway, I appreciate the call.
	Uh, you stand by Joe.
	I gotta give you credit.
	Hey, by the way, uh, in these tough economic times, I want you to find any way possible to save money.
	For example, a lot of the big carriers, ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile.
	They'll say you get a free phone.
	Well, that is a trick to lock you into a long-term contract that'll cost you a fortune more every month.
	You're gonna pay twice as much as you would with my cell phone provider, and that's Pure Talk.
	Uh now, if you really want a new iPhone 12, that's fine.
	They can take, they could charge you 12 bucks a month at zero interest.
	And by the way, there's no contract to sign, and they have a hundred percent satisfaction guarantee, and you can get blazing fast data, unlimited talk and text for 30 bucks a month.
	And the best part is Pure Talk uses the exact same 5G network as the big carriers.
	They use the exact same cell towers as the big carriers.
	Anyway, to save all this money, average family saving close to a thousand bucks a year.
	Just dial pound 250, say the keyword save now.
	Pound 250, keywords save now for my friends at Pure Talk, simply Smarter Wireless.
	Check their site for details.
