Time Text
This is an iHeart podcast.
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All right, news roundup, information overload.
Our toll-free R numbers, 800-941, Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
So Carrine Jean-Pierre, White House press secretary, actually attacking a friend of this program, Alabama Senator, Coach Touberville, over, you know, hold on our military nominations.
This is hurting national security.
No, what's hurting national security is China, Russia, Ukraine, all these countries the Biden's made money with.
You know, they can get away with spy balloons.
They can get away with taking down our drones.
They can get away with, let's see, intellectual property theft, devaluing the dollar.
They can get away with unfair trade practices.
They get away with pretty much everything and being aggressive towards our Navy in the Pacific and South China Sea.
They could be aggressive towards our fighter jets and international airspace.
No problem.
We get along great.
Everything's just hunky-dory.
Anyway, here's Carrine Jean-Pierre.
What the senator is doing by holding these nominations, it's a threat to our national security, period.
That's what he's doing.
These are important nominations that we need, that the American people need to keep our country safe.
And so they, and not only that, they risk our military readiness by depriving our armed forces of leadership and hurt our military families.
That's what he's doing by holding these DOD nominees.
All our military nominees that Senator Tuberville is blocking need to be confirmed quickly.
They should not play politics with our military assistance, with our military readiness, and with our military family.
Anyway, Coach Tuberville joins us now.
Senator Tuberville, great to have you back.
How are you, sir?
Sean, thanks for having me on.
Why do I think it really doesn't matter to the great people of Alabama?
They don't give a rip, one rip at all, that Corrine Jean-Pierre and Joe Biden are attacking you.
I think it probably helps your poll numbers.
Oh, there's no doubt about it, Sean.
I mean, these people have no sense of reality.
You'd think there would be some communication.
You know, the big thing about being in the position that Joe Biden's in and Secretary Austin's Defense Department, you have to have leadership skills.
And leadership skills start with communication.
And I've had zero communication from the White House.
So they're really worried about readiness, right?
I've had zero communication other than 10-minute conversation five months ago with Secretary Austin.
There's no concern over this.
There's obviously no concern over thousands of people getting killed in Ukraine, Russians and Ukrainians, because there's no conversation there.
It's a lack of leadership in this country, and it's getting us in trouble and everything we're doing and trying to push this woke agenda on the American people.
And I'm telling you, I'm in Alabama as we speak and driving around the state, and people are fired up about Donald Trump in this state.
And so, you know, they can attack him all they want, but they better take care of their own business because they're running themselves in terms of having an opportunity to keep control of this country in the next year and a half.
Am I the only one, Senator, that is watching the emergence of China and their clear desire to replace the U.S. dollar as the world's currency and their aggressive, hostile actions towards the U.S. that is going with no response at all whatsoever?
The fact that they're buying up our farmland, our ranch land, land near our military installations, and nobody raises an eyebrow over it.
Am I the only one that's watching this new axis of evil emerge with Russia, China, Iran?
Am I the only one watching some of our allies being appealed away because of Joe's abdicating his role as commander-in-chief and America's role as the leader of the free world and having no faith in American leadership or Joe's cognitive ability to even know what day of the week it is that they've abandoned the U.S. and they're betting on China, countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia and Egypt and others?
Am I the only one seeing this or are you seeing the same thing I'm seeing?
Exactly, Sean.
The American people don't have a voice now.
The voices in the White House and from this administration.
And obviously, somebody has to be compromised.
There's no accountability of what's going on with what China's doing and some of these other countries.
The coalition called RICS, they're getting together and they're doing away with the dollar in terms of for their trade and across these different countries.
And we lose the dollar as the world's monetary value of a currency.
We're done.
I mean, we're history.
And they're slowly creeping.
I don't think they care, Sean.
I don't think this administration cares what happens.
They want us to be a European-type nation where they pretty much just sit back and take care of the people and keep everybody dumbed down.
Don't worry about competing.
Don't worry about making yourself better.
The government will take care of you.
The American people don't want that, and they're getting sick and tired of hearing this stuff from this administration.
Can you explain to me, you know, as China's been building up their military now for a decade and they aggressively have been challenging the U.S. in the skies, international airways and international waterways, and even being as bold and audacious as to send a school bus-sized spy balloon all over the continental United States, buying up, as I said, our farmland, our ranch land, and our land near military installations?
Can you explain to me why our military is so obsessed with going woke?
And is this one of the main reasons that you have decided not to approve some of these nominees that they want to push through?
Well, it's just we're showing weakness all across the country.
We're the strongest this world has ever seen.
We were.
And we are dumbing down, weakening down.
Wait a minute.
We were.
Are we not any longer, sir?
And I really want an honest answer.
I'd rather know the truth.
The truth will set you free.
Well, there's some sections of our military, and I'm on Armed Services Committee that I trust, you know, the Marines, obviously, because they're holding their values, their discipline, the thing that they have to do to be a Marine.
But we're dumbing down the qualifications of all the other services to where, you know, it's an equal opportunity employer.
It is not an equal opportunity employer to be in our military.
You have to earn the right to be in there.
Then you have to uphold the right of the consequences of your actions and the things to uphold the sanctity of being in our military.
It used to be something that people took to heart of, man, you're in the military.
You're special.
Well, not anymore.
This is an equal opportunity employer.
Anybody can get in.
Anybody can do it.
And that's wrong.
We need a killing machine.
We don't need a social justice military.
And that's what it's turning out to be, Sean.
People better open their eyes to this.
And we go after Millie and Secretary Austin, all the generals that come in armed services, some of us do, and they don't have a good explanation for it.
You know, we're reading poems now on live speakers of flat tops of our aircraft carriers.
I mean, this is absolutely ridiculous, but that's what they want.
Can you explain to me this push towards making the weaponry of war and tanks electric vehicles?
Why am I doubting that our enemies in the battlefield are going to be too happy with us putting up charging stations as American troops advance in tanks?
How stupid are these people?
It's just showing weakness.
We can't do away with fossil fuels.
You've got the guy that's running this climate hoax thing for the White House, John Kerry.
He owns four homes, two yachts, and four or five airplanes.
But he's telling everybody else to ride a bus because we're running the environment.
Listen, we're all want our environment to be safe and great for our great, great, great grandkids.
But these people are.
Did we lose the senator?
I think we might have lost Senator Tuberville.
Well, we can try and get him back.
In the meantime, Everett in San Antonio.
Hey, Everett, how are you?
Hey, Sean.
Thank you for taking my call, sir.
It's a pleasure.
Well, I appreciate you being with us.
What's on your mind today?
Well, I have a compliment for you.
Your Don Corleon is spot on.
And I just want to make a comment.
We all know these Bidens are a crime family, but unlike the Corleons who make you an offer you can't refuse, these jokers make you an offer you can't understand.
Got Fredo Hunter running that family, and they just make you an offer you can't even understand.
They're so stupid.
They're not smart enough to pull off what they thought they could.
Well, so far they've gotten away with it, but I have a feeling to quote Barack Obama's pastor of a couple of decades, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
I think the Biden's chickens coming home to roost.
Man, I'm so glad you mentioned Obama because that was my comment or my question.
Don't you think when they start peeling this onion back even further and further that he's going to come up either right at the center of it, you know, right alongside Joe?
Because how oblivious could you be as president and have your vice president running around making bills and his son making deals, and these guys all leave this office so wealthy?
What's going on here, Sean?
I think Obama was probably clever enough to realize Joe is a dope.
That's what I think.
So did he really have much to do with him?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
I mean, he's the guy that said, never underestimate Joe Biden's ability to F things up.
I didn't make that up.
He did.
I got to run.
We got Senator Tuberville back with us.
Senator, when I left the good state of Alabama, I don't know if you know this, but early in my career, I broadcast out of Huntsville, Alabama.
Did you know that?
Oh, yeah.
I used to listen to you, Sean.
Yeah, you were on as a young guy.
Very energetic.
You brought a lot of enthusiasm to the airways, and that's how you made it.
And people need to learn.
Well, you know what the local newspaper said in Huntsville when I left the goodbye to the talk show host from hell.
That was not very nice.
Well, you've got a lot of liberals that are off with the country, not just in other states.
We got our share here, but we still got great Americans that need to fight for people like you.
And you need to continue, as you said, speaking the truth and going after the people that are trying to make this country into socialist communist country because that's exactly what's happening.
You think we'll be able to get charging stations on the battlefield for our military vehicles, or is that the dumbest idea you've ever heard?
To me, it's right up there.
Well, you can't make all this stuff up, Sean.
You can't make it up.
It just gets worse every day.
Of course, being a senator, I see it.
I have to live it.
And sometimes I go home at night going, did they really say that?
Do they really believe that?
You just don't know where they're coming from sometimes.
But I hope the American people are starting to wake up and see what's going on because we don't have much time left.
I mean, this will be the end of all of us if we have to go through four more years of this.
Because even though we're the greatest country for 247 years, I mean, it can also be destroyed.
And they're slowly taking it down piece by piece.
And we need to all understand that.
Well, we appreciate you, Coach.
Thank you, Coach Touberville, Senator Touberville, the great state of Alabama, sir.
And tell all our friends that I say hello, okay?
You got it.
Thank you.
800-941-Sean, a number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Brian in Texas.
What's up, Big Brian, Free State of Texas?
How are you, sir?
Thanks for taking my call, Sean.
I got to take issue with you on this Putin deal.
I think this whole thing was just a show.
He's failing with his people.
They're upset.
So he puts on this big show, throwing red meat to the Gallup Roobs like they do the Democrats do to their people.
I didn't outright dismiss it.
Rebecca Koffler, who's really impressive credentials, made the point.
I had her and Dan Hoffman debate it on TV last night.
I put nothing past Putin and his ability to lie.
So I want to be very clear about it.
I just don't know.
If I say something, I like to be able to back it up.
And it's an interesting theory from a smart person.
How's that?
Oh, I agree.
But he's been friends with this guy for like 30-something years, and he was his personal chef.
And they were both in the KGB together.
So, I mean, I don't see a friendship like that taking a turn after he marches on him for him bombing his own people.
Yeah, look, I mean, now Putin apparently has changed his mind.
He made a deal not to go after them, and now he realizes how humiliated he looked on the world stage, and now he's going after him again.
So I just don't know.
All I know is America is showing weakness with China, Russia, and all of our hostile regimes.
It's sad.
Anyway, appreciate it, my friend.
We have less than a minute.
We'll give it to Barry, Virginia, same topic.
Barry, how are you?
You got less than a minute.
It's all yours.
Okay, just wanted to say that I thought that the situation with Putin is painting him into a corner, especially since Biden called him a war criminal.
But I think that Putin sees it as he's utilizing a scorched earth policy to win the war.
And I worry that if he gets further painted into the quarter by being called weak by this latest coup, that he may legitimize his decision to go ahead and use some tactical nukes in Belarus there to maybe seal off the southern side of Ukraine so that he could build himself a land bridge to Crimea.
Listen, we may see a modern-day holocaust, and it can happen.
The world is a tinderbox now.
And China, Russia, Iran, Iran pursuing nuclear weapons, and America abdicating its role on the world stage is disastrous for everybody.
Having a cognitive mess as a president is a disaster for the world.
And, you know, 2024 can't get here soon enough.
And God help us if this guy ever got re-elected.
We're screwed.
The world is screwed with us.
That's my take.
I wish I had better news.
I don't.
And I believe every word I just said because it's true.
We'll continue.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
Thank you for being with us.
800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
You know, one of the things that we have been telling you, I've always believed the issue of abortion is a heart issue, especially now, what, the one-year anniversary since the Dobbs decision.
And then all the states now, I always believe Roe was bad law, and it should be a state decision.
And state by state, they'll make that determination based on what the public wants, people responsive to the people that put them in office.
But it's a heart issue.
And this is where preborn.com slash Sean comes in.
This is an organization that offers any expecting mom absolutely free ultrasounds, 4D ultrasounds.
for the purpose of showing expecting moms exactly what is going on inside their body.
And with 4D imaging, you can see fingers and toes and facial features, and you can hear the heartbeat.
And what they discovered is when women see and hear that, it changes their heart, and they are way more inclined to give life to the child, the miracle of birth that's growing within them.
But they can only do this with your generosity.
And they also go further with things.
They offer people free counseling, expecting moms or maybe women that have given birth.
They offer baby formula, diapers, baby food, whatever's needed.
And it's all because of your generosity, people in the pro-life community, people that believe in the sanctity of life.
I recently purchased two 4D imaging machines, ultrasound machines for two of their facilities that needed them desperately.
Anyway, they need your help.
They don't get a penny from the federal government like Planned Parenthood.
Just dial pound250.
Say the keyword baby, pound250, keyword baby.
They have a website.
It's preborn.com slash Sean.
That's S-E-A-N.
Preborne.com slash Sean.
100% of your tax-deductible donation will go towards saving babies and moms and helping them.
And they're hoping to get, you know, now they're saving 200 babies a day, and they're hoping to increase that number to as high a number as they possibly can.
Anyway, 800-941-Sean, our number, if you want to be a part of the program, it's a pleasure to always welcome back to the program Carrie Lake, former gubernatorial candidate for the great state of Arizona.
She has a new book just out today.
It's in bookstores around the country.
We have it on Hannity.com, Amazon.com.
It's called Unafraid, Just Getting Started, outlines her journey from being, frankly, one of the most beloved newscasters and broadcast journalists in the state of Arizona to a huge leader of a grassroots movement in her state.
You might say she's very shy, very quiet, very demure.
And we welcome her back to the program.
How are you?
I'm doing great.
Congratulations on the new book.
And great to have you back on the program.
I read an article the other day.
Kari Lake is hanging out a lot at Mar-a-Lago, and she's trying to become Donald Trump's VP selection.
And I'm like, there's no way that's true.
I don't believe that for a second.
Now, maybe you've been on Mar-a-Lago, which is fine.
That's your business.
I mean, and spend time with Donald Trump.
That's also fine.
However, I don't think you're lobbying to be VP.
I'm sure you saw the articles yourself.
Yeah, I did see that.
It was from People Magazine, which frankly I thought went out of business like, you know, in 2000.
But apparently there it is, still reporting lives.
It was a complete, I mean, I don't think I'm the only one who's sick of these so-called anonymous sources.
The person whoever they interview doesn't know anything.
You know, I do go to Mar-a-Lago for events when I'm invited to speak at an event, but I'm not hanging out at Mar-a-Lago.
I certainly am not.
And I'm very busy going around the country talking about election integrity and talking about the America First Movement.
And I am a big supporter of President Trump.
What's not to support?
He gave us an amazing four years.
He got us out of wars.
He revived our economy.
I think he breathed life into the Republican Party and got Americans off their butts and into politics and got them interested in politics again.
So I think he's an incredible president.
I support him wholeheartedly and will do anything to get him reelected because I think he's the man for the moment.
For this moment in history, we need a bull in a China shop.
We need Donald Trump back in the White House to get us on solid footing.
I'm going to tell him you called him a bull in a China shop.
I'm going to give him a call right after the show.
No, I'm teasing.
No, but he is.
The White House has become the China shop, and we've got somebody who's beholden to the CCP sitting in the White House.
So we need a strong, brash, tough New Yorker to come back in and get us back on solid footing.
I think I'll take the guy that understands today is Tuesday and that is not compromised, as you rightly point out, to all these countries.
I'd like to get a final answer to the question, how much money did the Biden family syndicate make in China and Russia and Kazakhstan and Ukraine and Romania and Mexico and a dozen other countries.
You know, Comer now estimates it's between 20 and 30 million that they made on top of all the business deals they did and whatever compromising matia deals they may have on Hunter and the whole Biden family syndicate is going to be interesting.
I spent a lot of time earlier in the program today talking about Merrick Garland, and we now have six IRS whistleblowers corroborating and confirming that the DOJ did interfere in the investigations into Hunter and his financial issues.
But of course, to me, I think we have a dual justice system in America.
We don't have equal justice or application of our laws.
And I'm very worried about the future of the country.
I'll even take it a step further.
I've never been more worried about the state of this country than I am now.
I agree.
I agree.
And I think it's, you know, we're living through very dark, difficult times.
And that's why we need bold leaders who can help us usher us out of this.
And we need to make sure that we have honest elections so that going forward, we know that our vote counts.
And I'm working to bring awareness to that and bring some change.
They've sold out our country.
And they're sitting in the White House while, meanwhile, while allowing China to build military installations 90 miles south of Florida in Cuba.
And he's not saying one peep about it.
This is dangerous times.
But I will tell you this, Sean, because I'm traveling all over the country, talking to people.
The average everyday person is worried as well, and they're getting involved.
And we have to use our most powerful weapon, which is our voice right now, and speak out and get involved.
We can't sit on the sidelines just going, this is a nightmare.
How do we fix it?
Getting involved, speaking out, and I believe supporting President Trump, because I frankly think he's the only man who can pull us away from this nightmare and turn things around.
What do you think Donald Trump's strategy should be?
Because come August, there's going to be a series of debates where, you know, I mean, he's up by anywhere between 30 and 45 points in the primary race.
Frankly, I think he'd be wasting his time to sit up there on a debate stage with the likes of Chris Christie, and, you know, who has no other agenda except to smear and slander Donald Trump and try to debate 11 other people.
Why bother?
Well, and I think Chris Christie's only in it to, you know, throw bombs at President Trump.
And he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell to even get the nomination.
And, you know, he's just kind of a paid mercenary in this, I think.
You know, you actually, I noticed in your book, and I wish I had a copy of it earlier.
I just got it today, and I was thumbing through it.
And you talk about your background in media and you may actually talk about Reagan's background in media and making the transition into the political world.
I think the reason that Reagan was the great communicator was in large part because not only did he start in radio, but then he was working for GE and he took his speeches around the country and he became a great orator and a great, you know, he just was an amazing communicator and he resonated with people.
And he took conservatism to a whole new level.
I mean, he ended his presidency with the longest period of peacetime economic growth in history and he ended the Cold War.
Absolutely.
And we needed him.
I mean, when he came in, he was the president of my youth.
He's the reason when I turned 18, I registered as a Republican.
We grew up about an hour apart from each other in our hometowns, however, a few decades apart.
And I was greatly inspired by him as president.
I grew up with Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan as the presidents of my youth.
And Jimmy Carter handed America to Ronald Reagan in an ash heap.
He left America in an ash heap.
And Ronald Reagan picked up the pieces.
And through his optimism and his love for this country, he brought us along and showed us that we can get through this.
I mean, we were in pretty dark days back then.
And he got us through a very difficult recession.
He did it with optimism.
And you know what else?
He brought love for country back into it.
There was a patriotism in the 80s that was amazing.
And it brought our country together.
And I want to see that again.
And I know President Trump wants to do that as well.
And fortunately, the left has figured that out.
And they've now labeled you, if you love your country, as a racist.
But I think people are waking up to this nonsense, the hyperbole of the left.
And they're ready to come together and take our country back and put it on.
You may be more optimistic than me.
And maybe I'm wrong, and you're right, and I hope you're right, and I am wrong.
And that is, I think a lot of people in this country, and I think America has flirted with this from time to time.
Jimmy Carter was one example.
Bill Clinton tried it the first two years he was president and then made a dramatic 180 turn.
The era of big government is over, the end of welfare as we know it.
But I think there are a lot of people in this country that like the idea of new Green Deal, radical socialism, and they like the idea of free child care and they like the idea of pre-K and they like the idea of free college and student loan forgiveness and guaranteed government jobs and wages and guaranteed government healthy food and retirement and health care.
And why they actually believe these promises would ever be fulfilled is beyond me considering their track record is they've bankrupted and stolen our future.
There was no lockbox for Social Security and Medicare.
And, you know, keep your doctor, keep your plan, and save money ended up being millions and millions losing their doctors' plans and the average American now paying 250% more than they were paying before Obamacare.
Well, I mean, yeah, you're right.
There are people who like that, but that gravy train can't go on forever.
Our country's broke.
And, you know, I think that we're going to have a wake-up call when we realize that.
And more and more people are realizing that it's not worth the handouts aren't worth it if we're losing our liberties and freedom.
So I am optimistic.
I really am, because I'm seeing it when I go around the country, people stepping forward and saying, I'm going to actually get involved.
I see we're heading in the wrong direction.
When they start going after our kids, that's when you wake people up.
That's when people say, I don't care about this $600 check a month.
You're going after our kids now.
You're teaching them things that are not just inappropriate, but are depraved.
You're committing psychological abuse on our children.
And when you get the mothers and fathers stepping forward and saying, no, no, no, not anymore.
They're domestic terrorists.
That's well, you know, and I think, too, all of those we're watching as our government has come after we the people.
And it should be the other way around.
The government should be afraid of we the people, not coming after us.
We the people are the ones who control our government.
We need to get back and remember that we have the power, not the government, but we have the power.
All right, CarrieLake.com is the website, Unafraid, just getting started, a new book out today, and it's in bookstores around the country, amazon.com, Hannity.com.
Nobody's boycotting your book, are they?
Not yet.
I'm sure it will happen.
We'll get ready.
Wait till the New York Times gets a hold of your sales.
I'm sure they'll minimize it by half.
Well, you know, the idea, look, I think Americans need to stay in the fight.
And I think elections are about the future.
And you and I have had private conversations about this.
And I think that we certainly, you know, I've been telling Republicans they better get over their reluctance and resistance to voting early and voting by mail.
It's not the system I want, but you know what?
It's the system we're stuck with until we win elections.
And I would prefer Election Day be a national holiday, pay for ballots.
Partisan observers watch the vote in every precinct around the country all day and the vote counting all night, and we declare a winner.
That's what I want for the future.
But in the meantime, Republicans better get in the ballot harvesting game, the legal ballot harvesting game the Democrats are in, because they're killing the Republican Party on that front.
I'll give you the last 30 seconds.
Well, we are fighting.
I'm still fighting.
We've got our case in the appellate court, and we're waiting for a court date.
And we're just going to call out corruption when we see it.
Our government has gone full on, rotten to the core, turning on the people.
And the people want their government back.
We want our freedoms back.
And so I'm willing to continue to fight for that.
I want honest elections just like you do.
And I'm going to continue fighting in the courts.
And we'll take it.
We'll do the ballot, not harvesting.
We call it chasing.
And we're going to do ballot chasing this next go-around.
And we're going to make sure we're registering people to vote.
But we need to make sure people do get out because I know they're frustrated right now and they feel like our days are very dark.
People better understand.
Democrats hide in their basement.
They run hundreds of millions in ads and they do legal ballot harvesting.
That's how they get away with hiding.
Anyway, KariLake, KyrieLake.com, Unafraid, just getting started.
Amazon.com, Hannity.com, bookstores around the country.
Thanks for being with us.
We always love having you.
Thank you, Sean.
You're the best.
Thanks.
Bye-bye.
800-941-Sean, our number.
You want to be a part of the program.
For free tickets to go see The Sound of Freedom.
It opens this weekend.
You definitely want to see this movie.
I've seen it.
It is unbelievable.
We're giving away free tickets on Hannity.com.
Just go there and you can register and we'll give you the free tickets.
We're also giving them to every caller this week.
It's a great, great movie.
It stars Jim Caviesel.
You'll love it.
It opens this 4th of July if you get a chance to see it.
And no, I have no financial stake in this at all.
I just love the movie.
And what you're going to learn about child sex trafficking will shock your conscience and your soul.
And sadly, what you learn about America's involvement will break your heart because the U.S. is one of the top destinations for human trafficking and among the largest consumer of child sex.
It's disgusting.
It's repulsive.
Anyway, human trafficking, $150 billion a year business.
Anyway, Sound of Freedom opens this weekend.
You're going to love this movie.
I promise you.
Anyway, don't forget Hannity tonight at 9, Matt Whitaker, Greg Jarrett, Alan Dershowitz, Tammy Bruce.
