Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
When 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.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
You want smart political talk without the meltdowns?

I'm Carol Markovich.
And I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
We've been around the block in media and we're doing things differently.

Thoughtful, try to be funny, grounded, and no panic.
We'll keep you informed and entertained without ruining your day.
Join us every Tuesday and Thursday, normally on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
I'm Ben Ferguson, and I'm Ted Cruz.
Three times a week, we do our podcast, Verdict with Ted Cruz.
Nationwide, we have millions of listeners.
Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we break down the news and bring you behind the scenes inside the White House, inside the Senate, inside the United States Supreme Court.
And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else.
We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
So down a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.com.
Mr. O'Reilly, sir, how are you this Wednesday?
You know, it's getting to be uh nicer in New York, so I'm uh a little buoyant, word of the day.
Word of the day, okay.
Um we have a lot of serious things to talk about.
Bill, we've been doing this a long time.
I've never been this worried or concerned about our country and uh uh and uh and the state of the world in general.
I don't like Putin and President Xi together.
I don't like uh a new axis of evil being formed, and that would be China, Russia, Iran, and now the Saudis, because of China, broker to deal with the Iranians.
All right, that's on that front.
Now we have the Fed hiking, you know, interest rates yet again because inflation is spiraling out of control.
And it seems the only thing that that democrats care about is is just getting Trump any way they can.
Any objective lawyer sees this as the weakest case imaginable, but they're it looks like they're going to pursue it.
And I just want to get your simple man take on what you think is going on and how this is gonna end.
Okay.
Um, it's a fiasco.
Uh that's number one.
And uh Trump was pretty smart when he announced last week um that he was gonna be arrested on Tuesday.
Um, because then he created a fire storm uh of politics, and and so that helped him in the sense that MAGA people and others uh rallied right away, and uh there was a lot of emotion in the air.
But if you look at the actual case, and you and I both live in New York, so we know this guy Alvin Bragg, who is the DA.
Um, this is purely political.
It's been reported on your television show last night, and I reported it as well.
It there's no doubt it is a political prosecution.
So that's number one.
Everybody, and and there's no two sides to that story.
It's not like no, it isn't.
The guy would never have brought this against anyone else, particularly a Democrat.
I mean, Bragg never in a million years would have brought the case because it's never going to get to trial ever.
So what the Trump lawyers are going to do if he is arrested in today, of course.
By the way, I'm not as confident as you.
I mean, because we do have judicial activists based on the law, what you said is correct, it should be thrown out.
Well, I'll tell you why it's never going to get in.
But number one, today Bragg doesn't even call the grand jury.
No, they called the grand jury and they canceled it last minute.
Okay, but they didn't come in.
And so that's very unusual.
Extreme that shows you this turbulence.
A hundred percent.
That's my analysis.
Perfect.
Turbulence in Bragg's office.
There's just turbulence.
Because he knows that if he does arrest a former president of the United States, that the indictment's going to have to show on what?
And everybody already knows that this is a misdemeanor in New York State, that he somehow is contrived into a felony.
And at the same time, he busts down fifty percent of criminal felony charges to misdemeanors.
I mean is fifty-two percent but let's not be precise, shall we?
I know.
And by the way, he loses, do you know he lost of all the felony trials he's brought into court he's lost forty nine percent of them?
Do you know how bad that is and he doesn't even try to win.
So Trump's arrested and then the indictment comes out and immediately Trump lawyers are going to appeal, okay, and they're going to go to a higher state court, New York State Court.
And they're going to say this is ridiculous statute of limitations have run out on it.
He can't do it, it's illegal.
That'll take months all right and then f it'll wend its way through the appellate division you know on and on and on.
If in the end New York State sides with Bragg, then it goes to the Supreme Court.
That's where it goes.
And but the Supreme Court takes only a minuscule percentage of of cases that are brought before them.
You're saying you're confident that they would pick they would pick this one?
Of course they have to because this this is a president of the United States.
They have to take it.
I don't know I could see them punting Bill not wanting to get involved.
I've seen we saw that after the election in 2020.
They uh many courts punted.
Yeah well there are five justices on the Supreme Court who I can't imagine would not hear this case because it sets precedent Hannity for everything else to follow in this country.
And that's what the Supreme Court does.
It settles disputes.
So anyway by the time this you know you and I will be uh in some kind of uh 55 plus driving around a golf course going to take so long.
But in the meantime, and this is really the central point of the story, Americans become more divided, more hateful toward each other.
Uh the political climate is poisonous now it gets worse and our enemies that you just cited she and Putin in particular they seize upon the weakness and chaos inside the United States to try to advance whatever agenda they have, which is a dangerous agenda.
Here's my bigger worry as it relates to our system of of justice based on a constitution.
Every law is written because of that constitution it represents the foundation of law.
Here's my concern America in my view you can disagree if you like I see that we now have a dual justice system.
We don't have equal justice under the law.
We don't have equal application of our laws.
Now for example if they if Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly do the exact same thing, you would think that we would be treated the exact same way.
But that's not happening.
We have a system of justice that lets Hillary Clinton go free deleting 33,000 emails with bleach pit then d busting up devices with hammers then FBI agents using an unverify a bull document that Hillary produced known as the dossier they get a sp four Pfizer warrants on it and nobody is held accountable Bill and that allowed them to backdoor spy on then candidate Trump,
later President Trump.
Nobody's held accountable.
Then you have the FBI putting their, you know, basically the cinder blocks on the scales of a presidential election by meeting weekly with big tech companies and telling big tech companies, you know, the you're probably going to be a victim of misinformation and it may be about Hunter Biden.
That testimony took place in the Missouri case.
So what bothers me is we can't live in a country and be successful if we don't have equal justice in application of our laws.
Do you disagree with any part of that?
Well I think it's worse than that.
I think that the uh American criminal justice and civil justice both systems have collapsed.
So when you have a guy like George Soros who's pumping literally hundreds of millions of dollars into elections for districts attorneys um and wants to elect people like Alvin Bragg who will not enforce the law you have a collapse of the criminal justice system.
Remember the Constitution gives the primary power to enforce the law to the states okay not to the Justice Department.
Justice Department is an oversight and there are federal crimes that cross state lines.
But primarily local jurisdictions, state jurisdictions have the power and now you have one man George Soros, armed with hundreds of millions of dollars who has corrupted the entire process and I'll run you can run them down.
Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Oregon, Chicago, St. Louis, Baltimore, New York City, on and on and on and on.
What do they all have in common?
They have Soros funded district attorneys who will not enforce the law.
But they're gonna they're gonna make up a law ostensibly.
Now by the way, putting aside that the statute of limitations have passed on both aspects of the law in which they were told that they are looking to prosecute indict and then arraign Donald Trump on.
Jonathan Turley did a great analysis on it.
I'm sure you read it.
What's holding it up by the way, Hannity the felony charge that Bragg is trying to bring has now a statute of limitations problem.
And it's a five year statute of limitations on that.
The New York law that he's referring to is a two year statute of limitations.
Very fast.
And I go back to my original thing.
I'll never see the light of day.
But just one quick aside.
Americans expect what you just said, equal justice under the law.
Well, not only in criminal, but now in civil court, you're not going to get that.
All right.
Quick break.
More with simple man, Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly, Bill O'Reilly dot com.
Then your calls 800-941-SHAWN.
Our number if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
hours a day of red white and blue America proud this is the Sean Hannity show.
All right we continue now Bill O'Reilly's with us all things O'Reilly at BillO'Reilly dot com.
Bill O'Reilly I famously said in two thousand and six or seven somewhere around there and I've said it many times since you've heard me say it that journalism in America is dead everybody that you if you watch fake news CNN or MS DNC or any of these channels everybody you're watching they're they're parts of the media they're members of the press but you know people ask me are you a journalist I say no I'm a talk show host.
Now I can produce thousands and thousands of hours on radio and TV of me doing straight news no opinion at all the news of the day from Hurricane Katrina to war you name it we cover it straight news.
We've done investigative reporting you Bill O'Reilly now part of your job is journalism part of your job is investigative journalism.
Part of your job is you give opinion part of your job is you try to be funny I'm a little funnier than you we're like an entire newspaper we we do every everything you're gonna see in a newspaper we do as talk show hosts.
They claim that they're journalists Bill they're not well it's true in uh journalism has fallen apart in America which is a real detriment to the American people who need honest information in order to make decisions that are important to them and their family and now they they're very hard to get in honest information.
That's why you're have balkanized uh television news viewing.
It's all over the place.
Um, you know, guys like you and me, we keep a journal, a chronicle of people who have been dishonest, and I don't know, my journal is about eighty, eighty-five percent of the corporate media.
I mean, I can't I I'd say I would say it's higher.
I I can't tell you one corporate media individual that I know I can rely upon, like Mike Wallace, for example, in the past, for an honest take.
But but Bill, you the difference between us and them, and um you let the folks, I'll use your term, you let the folks know you're giving opinion.
People know I am a registered conservative.
I'm not a Republican, I'm a conservative, I tell people all the time, usually more aligned with the Republican Party because their ideology, their philosophy, their governing beliefs are closer to mine than the Democratic Party.
We're honest about it.
They're dishonest about it, Bill.
Of course.
Because they're they do what they're told to do.
So what do you expect them to do, Hannity?
You expect Jake Tapper to come out and say, hey, um, you know, CNN was ruined by Jeff Zucker, and I did pretty much what Jeff told me to do, and I hated Trump every hour on the hour because that's what Jeff Zucker wanted, and he was my boss, and I get paid a lot of money, so I did it.
You expect him to say that, Hannity, really?
I love the way you expect that Hannah, by the way, this is not your TV show or radio show.
You know, you're on my show, and you don't get the grill me.
No, I don't expect that to happen.
And by the way, I'm gonna give you a warning right now, because I know you have a book coming out pretty soon.
And when your next book comes out, I'm just warning you now that when you do this show, this will not be a cupcake interview.
You know what the next book is about demonic possessions.
That so you should have a good time killing the witches.
Oh my gosh.
Are you really is that really the title?
Killing the witches, the horror of Salem, Massachusetts, but it's a lot more than that.
But it's about demonic possession, of which you are very familiar.
All right.
I have a last question, and this comes from a listener, because you know, you can oh, I know you do your karate, Hannity and your kung fu Hannity, and I'm like, okay.
I've explained to you numerous times my 11 years as a student of the martial arts.
I'm not going to go into detail.
They they want to know and want an answer to this question.
Will you, Bill O'Reilly, be willing to come over to the Hannity Dojo with my sensei and train for a day with the promise that we won't have you doing anything that will that you don't want to do?
I don't want to sprain anything, Hannity, you know.
Oh, wait a way, wait a minute.
Are you saying you don't work out at all?
No, I work out plenty, but I I this is martial arts.
This is kung fu.
I saw you take that gun away from the guy on video tape.
That was pretty impressive.
I have to give you props.
Uh, I train every day, Bill, an hour and a half a day, and you know what?
I've gotten pretty strong.
Um, um, you know, we'll we'll we'll we'll we we we will meet you where you're at.
Anyway, the invitation's open.

It's a sad state of affairs worldwide, especially in the country.
I'm worried about our our fellow Americans.
Bill O'Reilly, thank you, sir.
When 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.

Alright, 25 now till the top of the hour, 800 941 Sean, our number.
Let's get to our busy phones.
So many of you have been very, very, very patient here.
Amy in Florida.
Amy, hi, how are you?
Uh glad you called.
Oh, thank you so much.
It's such an honor to be on your show.
Let me ask you a question.
I want to give you a gift.
Can I give you a gift?
Are you interested?
Are you interested at all in firearms?
Well, how do you mean?
In other words, are you interested in shooting self-defense?
Yeah.
You know, if you want to become a marksman, I always say about people with the second amendment that you have a responsibility to be competent and confident in your shooting ability.
And we've got this great sponsor, Mantis X, and it's a no-ammo, all-electronic way to practice and improve shooting accuracy so you can be a responsible gun owner.
And uh it's like having your own range instructor there, and it's used by all the best shooters in the world, by the Marine Corps, the Army, Special Forces, Military Great Technology, Aordable Price.
If you'd like a free one, I will give it to you.
Oh my gosh.
I'll take that as a yes.
Anyway, uh, you're gonna love MantisX, MantisX.com.
That's M-A-N-T-I-S.com.
Anyway, what's on your mind today?
Well, thank you for that.
Um, and also thank you for all that you do in terms of educating everyone on climate events.
So I wanted to follow up a little bit about this brag situation with Trump.
Um I I will say I am not a qualified person to judge the credibility of what's going on, but from what I understand by the facts, it just seems it's a Merlot case, and I just don't understand why the attorneys that Trump hires, because obviously he has a lot of means to hire the best.
Don't send a letter to this um this this attorney and just basically say, you know, uh this case is not an act, it does not have merit and merit.
So um, you know, if you're going to pursue this case, then we will pursue um uh disbarment because it's you know, everybody, whether it's you media or an attorney, we must uphold the law.
Let me go back because you're raising points here that I think are relevant.
Let me go back and play Alvin Bragg as a candidate and what he's promising to do was on a radio station hot 97 in New York.
Listen.
A lot of people are wondering uh whoever has this job, are they going to convict Donald Trump?
Look, that that that is uh the number one issue.
I'm the candidate in the race who has the experience with with Donald Trump.
I was the chief deputy in the attorney general's office.
We sued the Trump administration over a hundred times.
I'd be hard to argue with the fact that that's that'd be the most important uh most high profile case.
Uh and I've seen him up front and seen the lawlessness that he can do.
And you believe it should happen.
I yeah, I I b I believe we have to hold him accountable.
That was his campaign promise.
Letia James, who is the AG in New York, made similar comments.
You know, justice needs to be blind.
Running a campaign to to specifically attack one man, one corporation, one family uh like this is it it just destroys any concept of equal justice, equal application of our laws and our fundamental constitutional rights.
We're now criminalizing political differences.
You know, we don't like somebody, we're gonna go after them.
You know, it's like conservatives being targeted by the IRS, but not liberals.
There, and there are what, 43,000 government employees that don't even file income tax returns.
Can you I can you imagine if I didn't file my income tax return and pay every penny that I owe, what would happen to me?
You don't think they'd like to, you know, uh uh morning raid, you know, 30 guys, uh all SWAT gear, uh CNN fake news cameras, like they did to Roger Stone.
You know, Hannity didn't pay three dollars for something.
I mean, it's I mean, you you wouldn't believe what I have to do to get my taxes done every year.
I can't do my own taxes.
I have one accounting firm.
Then my lawyer's accounting firm double checks the work of the first accounting firm.
Then my lawyers go over it to make sure that you know everything is legal, above board, pay my taxes, and whenever there's a question and they bring it to my attention, I always use the same words pay it, pay it, pay it, pay it, pay it, pay it.
In other words, I don't want any risks because I don't want any trouble in my life, and I happen to believe in the rule of law.
I don't like the law, but uh but it's not mine to change.
Well, well, that's why it seems to me that people who are qualified when laws are being abused or not properly influenced, whatever the whatever, and you can apply that to many levels right now.
That needs to be stopped if you have the qualification to stop it.
Well, this is why elections matter.
You know, if Republicans didn't win the House, and and that's why I was so anxious for them to come together, get a speaker, get an agenda, follow through on their promises, the power of subpoena.
We're now seeing how important that is.
Uh the power of the purse, we're gonna learn very quickly how important that is as well.
Elections matter.
And that's why I keep urging Republicans all around the country, conservatives all around the country, get rid of this reluctance and resistance you have to early voting and voting by mail.
It's got you've got to embrace it.
You've got to embrace in every state except for Alabama, there's some form of ballot harvesting allowed by law.
The Democrats, you know, are are masters at this.
You got to get in that game and do it as well, hopefully better than they do it.
Um anyway, good call, Amy.
We appreciate it.
Um, let's say hi to Joel in Ohio.
What's up, Joel?
How are you?
By the way, uh, you're in Ohio.
Did uh did President Biden ever get to East Palestine yet, or no?
Uh not a chance.
I mean, that's I'm not even sure that uh Stephen knows where Ohio is.
Uh I don't think he's gonna win Ohio for re-election.
It's a lot of states that are going to be in play.
I I I just hope the American people wake up.
There's not a single thing I can point to that is successful right now.
Our foreign policy is a disaster.
China aligning with Putin, aligning with the mullahs in Iran, aligning now with Saudi Arabia, brokering deals with Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Uh, we've got a new axis of evil, and I'm not looking for a fight.
I am only telling you that that puts the world, these are very evil people, and it they're God knows what they're gonna be capable of.
I really fear on the foreign policy front, and I fear economically our families in this country, every town, every city, they're getting destroyed financially because of Biden inflation.
Another point two five increase in interest rates today.
Good luck.
You know, we're now at an 11-year low in terms of uh home prices and and sales.
It's unbelievable.
So the reason I'm calling, Sean, it kind of follows along with what you and Bill O'Reilly and that previous caller had said.
Um, we have some serious problems going on.
Um I started watching uh Fox 9-11 was when I first started.
Jim Jordan is my Congressman.
And this goes to something that uh one of your callers from yesterday afternoon, it was late in your show.
It was about Russia and that situation.
And you were talking about um you know fighting back, strength, punching them in the face.
And I started thinking about that, and I went to a uh uh something that the Navy Secretary had spoken about here recently, Carlos Victor, and he was speaking about climate change was the top priority of the United States Navy.
This I I read the very same story, I've seen the same reports.
We did a deep dive, and yes, billions of dollars all across every government agency, including our military, is gone woke, and yes, climate change uh climate change funding is involved in every single department under Joe Biden.
So, and my question is this, Sean.
Do we get to as a nation, as a country, do we get a hole dug by this administration so deep that we can't climb out of in a year and a half?
It's the answer is you can always climb out of it with good policies.
You know, Reagan inherited an absolute Adam Schiff show when he became president, and you know, he had to make tough decisions on the economy that you know threw the country into a tough recession.
By the time he left office, now remember his re-election, he won 49 states uh and nearly 150.
And the reason is is he created 21 and a half million new jobs, the longest period of peacetime economic growth uh in our history up to that point, and did an amazing job as president, and he rebuilt our military.
Uh he talked about it when as a candidate, uh the gap of vulnerability that was created with adverse adversaries back then, we were in the middle of the Cold War, and he built up a 600 ship Navy, and we were ready to roll, and this country was safer and more secure because of strength and his philosophy of peace through strength.
You know, and look, he he didn't need to get into foreign conflicts, but when Mo Mark Gaddafi, you know, took that plane out of the sky, uh when Mo Mark Gaddafi was messing with our military, he fired a missile right into his house and nearly killed his son, but did kill one Of his daughters.
You know what?
That's a pretty loud message.
If you and and frankly, I think that America not responding to China and not responding to the drone strike of uh with Putin, it's a terrible mistake.
It is it is only showing weakness.
It will only embolden further aggression.
And I I don't think it's going to be long now till China takes Taiwan.
I really believe that.
And I don't think Joe Biden will lift a finger.
I really don't.
And that scares me.
That's that look, the world should be concerned about.
I I am angry with Western Europe.
Western Europe, they have a war in their backyard and and they're expecting us to pay for it.
No, they've got to step up and pay for it.
You know, should we help on some level because it's evil in our time and we don't want the cancer to spread?
I'm fine with that.
But I have two conditions that every single European country step up financially and pay their fair share.
And number two, if you're gonna fight the war, you must fight it to win it or don't get involved.
That's it.
I don't think my conditions are onerous in any way.
I think it's basic, simple common sense.
Then after they do their part, yes, we will help them financially.
Uh we're not putting boots on the ground.
We're not gonna have get involved in quagmires again and again and again and say, oh, never mind, because that's what happens.
They start wars, they politicize wars, then they want to get the hell out of the war, and you know, we leave after spending you know hundreds of billions of dollars.
It can't happen anymore.
If you're gonna fight if you're gonna offer help, you can't tell Zelensky, oh no, no, you can't fly MIG jets that Poland is offering you.
So then stop wasting our time.
Because you're you have no intention to win.
And if you're not gonna win, then get out of it.
It's really that simple.
Peace through strength.
We don't have a president that has any strength.
Joel, we love our friends in Ohio.
God bless you, my friend.
Wade is in Pennsylvania.
We love our friends in Pennsylvania as well.
What's up, Wade?
Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call.
Um, my my main point is that I don't believe that Bragg was necessarily interested in a conviction.
I think more than anything else, he wants the perp walk.
He wants the pictures and the video of uh Trump in handcuffs and mugshots so that they can use that for propaganda uh down the road during the election, or even if uh if Trump is re-elected.
Yeah, they definitely want that.
That's a big part of it for them.
But let me tell you something, losing, uh they'll have egg all over their face, and they will uh trust me, it is they have their own egos involved in this too.
Their problem is look, I'm only speculating about today.
We have this bombshell letter that I talked about at the beginning of the program that came out.
This is the the FEC and a letter to Mr. Jordan uh on behalf of Michael Cohn.
This is the most exculpatory letter you could ever have in a case like this.
The reason that the grand jury decided to cancel, which is highly unusual, they're 2 p.m.
Uh they were supposed to convene at 2 p.m. today.
Why they canceled it, I'm speculating, but my guess is that office is in massive turmoil right now because they know that they're gonna look really, really bad when they lose.
And and that's why they're trying so hard, for example, even you know, question whether or not Joe Tacopina can be on the case.
They want him out.
Joe Tacopina is an incredible trial lawyer who has massive success in New York City dealing with very controversial and even people that are not liked in New York City, and he gets them off because he's good at what he does.
And anyway, he'll be on TV tonight.
We'll talk about this letter because it's a bombshell.
I think if they do lose, they're gonna have another issue.
Um if they once they actually get it as far as um uh past the arreamment, then uh I think that Bragg is gonna be um guilty of uh malicious prosecution.
And that's uh that's a crime in New York.
Well, this is malicious prosecution, and you know what, you know, the the biggest evidence of this is he ran a campaign to get Trump, the Trump organization targeting one man, one family, one corporation, As did frankly the AG of New York, Letitia James.
And that is not how justice should work in this country.
If any conservative ran on a platform to get one person, uh, it would be beyond an appropriate also.
Uh anyway, 800 941 Sean.
Thank you, Wade.
Appreciate the call, buddy.
Uh, thank you for the call.
Uh all right.
So Linda talked to our friends at Home Title Lock.
In six minutes, they were able to find her home title, her signature online.
By the way, it's pretty easy to find mine.
Um, and showing her that they could steal her home in less than six minutes, which is why you need home title lock.
But anyway, tell the story.
So it's completely insane.
It's one of those things.
I think a lot of people get confused.
They think if they have identity theft protection, they have homeowners' insurance, any of these things, none of that works.
These guys got on.
It does not protect your home's title.
Correct.
So that your home has something called an APN, which is basically the Social Security number for your particular house.
And they were able to go online, get that APN, home my signature from when I had my deed when I signed it in the closing.
They had everything.
They lifted it.
I sold it to some guy I never met in Chicago for 10 bucks, and then they're pulling out loans on the equity that I have in the house.
I'm like, are you kidding me?
Then you gotta pay for legal fees so that you can get your own house back that you never sold in the first place.
And guess what?
Your signature matches.
It's the scariest thing in the world.
Now we have criminals worldwide targeting American homeowners to steal your home.
That's why you need home title lock.
All right, first things first.
You sign up, you're gonna get a free title scan.
They will verify that your home is safely in your name.
Now, mention my name Sean.
A lot of people don't know how to spell it.
S-E-A-N.
Uh for you'll get 30 days of free protection when you go to Home Titolock.com.
That's Home Title Lock.com.
You don't want this nightmare coming into your life.
When the world gives you insanity, he gives you common sense solutions.
This country needs a course correction immediately.
Find your station at Hannity.com and listen three hours a day.
All right, that's gonna wrap things up for today.
We are loaded up tonight on Hannity on the Fox News Channel.
Now, remember the FEC and the Justice Department passed on this entire legal issue involving Stormy Daniels, as did the former DA in Manhattan uh prior to Alvin Bragg.
Then Alvin Bragg passed on it, and now they brought it back up again, and it seems to be deteriorating right before our eyes.
Anyway, the president's attorney on this New York case, Joe Tacapina, and Brad Smith with the FEC will join us and get will get his take on why they passed on on any prosecution with this.
Uh Congressman Jim Jordan, Kevin O'Leary, yep, interest rates back up again.
Nine Eastern, please set your DVR, never miss an episode.
We'll see you tonight at nine, back here tomorrow.
Thank you for making the show possible.
