If you want to be a part of the program on this Friday, we're going to have a little musical hour in the next hour.
John Rich, he's got his song, then Jason Aldean's song, and...
And this viral uh tune that basically is taking the country by storm now, number one on the Apple charts, just like Jason Aldean's tune when it came under fire became number one.
Anyway, it's uh Richmond North of Richmond.
And this guy, Oliver Anthony.
I just Linda, is this true?
I just read that in fact he may have been offered like a huge record deal and he turned it down.
The irony of all ironies is he's not getting one offer, he's getting many offers.
And John Rich said it best, and he said, had he been on a record label, he never would have made the song because they never would have let him because they're too woke.
Wow.
That's so good.
Anyway, John Rich will break down what's going on in the music world uh on this Friday.
Um some amazing things are happening in South Dakota, and they just they just keep unfolding and and I'm just fascinated by it.
Um and Governor Christy Gnome has started her Freedom Works Here effort, and that's bringing people they have more jobs in the state, they have the lowest unemployment of any state in the union.
They have more jobs, high paying career jobs than they can fill, and people now are beginning to flock all the way to South Dakota in you know, in the search of a better life, and they're finding it.
Um and and she just came out with a latest ad.
Now remember she was a dentist and she's been an electrician and uh well and a plum well she was a plumber, um, and doing all these jobs and basically saying, Come here.
Anyway, we're gonna talk to the governor in a second, but uh she's promoting this nationwide workforce recruitment and it is working this time as an electrician.
Listen.
Let's look on the bright side.
South Dakota stayed open for business during the pandemic.
Now we've got more jobs than people.
So I'm filling in until you get here.
South Dakota's the freest state in America and the best state to live, work, and raise a family.
We accept most out of safe professional licenses.
And we have over 20,000 open jobs, including for electricians.
South Dakota, freedom works here.
Oh, no.
I'm a lousy electrician.
All right, she's been a dentist, a plumber, a welder, and now the electrician uh electrician joining us now this Friday, uh, Governor Christy Nome of the Great State of South Dakota.
Governor, you crack me up, but this campaign is working.
How are you doing?
I'm doing great.
It is working.
Um I have not tackled construction like you have, Sean.
But uh we are proving in these commercials that I am not the best person to fill these jobs, that there may be people across the country that would be interested in having our quality of life and the high-paying career they've always dreamed of.
You know, that's the thing, and when when I got into the first initial details with you, I I don't usually get shocked.
I think I've heard everything in all the years I've been doing radio and TV, but you you really shocked me.
And in as much as how how great these opportunities are.
Now, you can't really understate the importance of of professionals that have licenses in other states and how difficult it often is for them when they move to another state, uh, to get they they now have to go through an entirely different process to practice their trade, and and that can take in some cases even up to a year or longer.
That's not the case with your freedom works here effort and and your incentivizing all these people to come.
Tell us why that's not a requirement.
Well, we just recognize their licenses from their states wherever they're coming from.
And that was a real challenge for years in South Dakota.
Someone wanted to come to our state and uh, you know, be a nurse if they wanted to be a teacher, If they wanted to, you know, be a real estate um, you know, agent.
They it took months, sometimes a year to get them qualified to take up that profession here in South Dakota, and we just said enough is enough.
Many times the requirements were in sync and we could recognize their license and let them get to work the next week.
And it's been phenomenal since we made that change when I became governor.
And now we are actually paying for people to get trained if they don't have any license.
We will pay for that administrative fee and that training while they're on the job so that they can go in and become a career uh and be what they've always dreamed of.
So for instance, welders can go work somewhere, be trained to do some types of welding while they're taking classes and we're paying for those administrative classes so they can get a full welding certificate and move from a twenty dollar an hour job into a thirty, forty dollar an hour job.
And we're doing that in all professions.
In fact, we even have a hundred teachers now that are not certified teachers, but they've been working in classrooms as teachers' aides or assisting in classrooms.
We've told them this year we are going to get you trained and certified to be a teacher while you're serving in that classroom.
You will end up with your certificate and someday soon you'll have your own classroom to teach in.
I mean, that's pretty amazing.
And this is what really blew me away last time.
Well, the first time you were on radio talking to me about it, and you were on TV last night talking about it.
You you t you told me something that just blew me away.
Eighty grand for apprentice programs, you uh that's insane to me.
That's an amazing opportunity.
Yeah, I think that's what shocks most people too, is they think that they have to give up a job, give up an income in order to be able to take on the training requirements that are involved in.
We have streamlined that.
In fact, many times these folks can get into a job that pays them a good wage and also gives them health benefits or a retirement package while they're being trained to get that certification.
So, you know, we have people that are in their late twenties, thirties, forties that maybe have a responsibility to take care of a family and pay bills.
They can't quit their job and go back to school.
Well, now they don't have to.
If they come to South Dakota, you can continue to earn your wage and take care of your family while you move into that next career.
You know, I know oftentimes it's a little scary for people to pick up, pack and move and and start their life over again, but honestly, the fact that I was willing to move in my life and I was raised in Long Island, New York.
I lived five years in Rhode Island, five years in California, uh five, I'm sorry, two years in Alabama, four years in Georgia until I got hired by Fox.
And I'll tell you, I think it was one of the best things to ever happen to me in my life because I got to understand that uh New York is not the be all end all governor.
It's the last place, frankly, I w I want to live at this point in my life.
I mean, you can't safely walk down the streets.
You certainly can't go on a subway in New York City, God help you.
Yeah, no, I think that's one thing that COVID taught every family is they don't want to live like that anymore.
They want to live somewhere where their kids can go and have neighbors to play with, where the laws are enforced, where they still have a community they can be a part of.
People go to church in the morning on Sunday morning and and they take care of each other when they hit a challenging time.
That's what South Dakota still is.
When people come here to visit, um, in they go home and get their families and decide to move back because they say I can't believe how friendly the people are.
People think about our weather, uh, but people uh you know that that usually lasts for a couple months a year, but it also the benefits far outweigh any challenges that January and February might bring us.
So the number one state that people are moving from since we've been tracking through this marketing campaign is California, uh, which is no surprise.
Although we thought most of them would be coming from Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota.
Minnesota's in the top five, but you know, the top five states.
Well, this kind of blew me away because we now have data.
You I mean, you when you launched this program, it caught my attention and I really liked it.
And I I looked at these numbers, it's pretty amazing.
Since that first time you are on my show, my understanding is your Freedom Works here ads have been viewed by 460 million people or 460 million times.
And now you have how many people have moved into the state?
Because I see that the you have the most applications from California, eight hundred and forty-seven, Texas, three hundred and sixty-one, Florida's third with three hundred and sixty.
That kind of surprised me because they're taking in an influx of new new residents every day.
Minnesota was uh fourth, and New York was fifth.
Uh that's pretty amazing.
It is amazing.
And I you know, this is five thousand families that are in the process of moving to South Dakota just in a two month advertising campaign, telling them about the opportunities that we have.
We've never had a marketing campaign that has been so successful in the history of our state.
I don't I even think larger states probably wouldn't have had a response like this before.
And it it talks about showing of a fun ad that gets people's attention that's a little positive when you turn on the news sometimes at all seems negative, get their attention, and then we start working with them individually to answer their questions about schools, about communities, what kind of town they want to be on, connecting them with those employers.
It's a hands-on experience that actually helps get them comfortable with moving our family across the country.
So those numbers are incredible.
We've started the campaign saying we have 25,000 open jobs.
Now we're saying 20,000 open jobs.
Um our businesses are excited because they have people that are ready to go to work, and that's one of the benefits of this campaign, Sean, that you know, we don't always talk about all the time, but we need people in this country to start educating the next generation on the importance of work, on the benefits that work brings, that it's not good to live off a government program.
You don't get self-respect that way.
You don't learn discipline that helps you be successful.
You know, it's better for us to get up and have a purpose every day because it helps us be healthier physically, but spiritually and mentally as well.
So, you know, that's what all of our messaging is to folks after we're connecting with them is how beneficial it can be to be a part of our state.
You know, Governor Kathy Hulkel of New York recently made comments about conservatives, and I mean it's just so insulting.
Her predecessor, Andrew Cuomo, uh once said this.
Let me play it for you.
Uh their problem is not me and the Democrats.
Their problem is themselves.
Who are they?
Are they these extreme conservatives who are right to life?
A poor assault weapon.
Is I gay?
Is that who they are?
Because if that's who they are, and if they are the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York.
So this is that's not who New Yorkers are.
And then he said this about taxing the rich.
Tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich.
We did.
Now, God forbid the rich leave.
You know, what's amazing, okay.
So I I'm happen to be pro-life.
Uh, I understand my fellow New Yorkers are not.
It's now a state issue, and uh you know they outnumber Republicans by a big number.
Uh yes, I'm pro-second amendment.
Uh I'm not anti anybody, I'm pro-freedom.
I don't I think what adults do is their business.
I'm actually leave people alone, libertarian-like.
And but I mean, you know, after he made those comments, I'm like, I have to go to another state.
I'm not wanted in the state I I was born in.
Yeah, he essentially told you to leave and get out.
You know, it's you you play.
But they but they take an awful lot of my money every year, Governor.
I can tell you that, and I pay every penny of it.
I know, I bet you do.
You know, until you played those clips, I almost forgot how terrible he was.
Um such a horrible governor.
I remember one time George Stephanopoulos asked him to give me advice on what I should be doing during COVID, and I remember just thinking that's how messed up even some of our media networks are that aren't giving people the truth.
Anyways, I that's exactly right.
Then that's why people are leaving.
They know they're not wanted, they know they're not safe, they know the government is taking their money and wasting it, and they want a different life.
I'm glad there's still places in this country where they can go.
There are still a few states where they can have a little bit of freedom still.
I love the fact that you're doing this.
Quick break right back more with South Dakota governor uh Christy Noam than your phone calls.
Hey there.

We continue now.
South Dakota Governor Christy Dom is with us.
Uh her new uh initiative is called Freedom Works Here, and she is promoting high paying career jobs and in and apprenticeships in the state of South Dakota.
I mean apprenticeships at eighty thousand dollars.
Wow, I never heard of that before.
As we continue with the governor.
What do you make of the Republican primary generally?
I'm not gonna ask you the usual questions I've asked here.
What what do you make of what's going on?
What do you make of the indictments of Donald Trump and and the weaponization of the DOJ and what we're discovering?
What do you make of the lack of interest and curiosity?
You know, Joe Biden lies to the country repeatedly about his relationship with his son as it relates to his farm business dealings.
Clearly, we now have all the evidence that Joe Biden benefited financially from his son's foreign business deals, some of our top geopolitical foes.
You look at all of it together, what do you think?
Well, Biden is proving, and his administration and his DOJ is proving that there's no equal protection under the law.
That citizens aren't equal, that if you are um of their political affiliation and their government control um mandate that they want to pursue, then there's different rules for you.
So the hypocrisy is what's resonating with people across the country.
I've talked to people all across this country, and that's what they're angry about.
Even if they aren't thrilled with President Trump, they're so angry by seeing this corruption that is supposed to be within our justice system and discouraged by it that they know they need somebody tough in there that will actually fix it.
So, you know, I've got a lot of people in this primary that I know that are nice people.
I'm just some most of them I haven't seen them fight when it's been important.
And uh, President Trump is a fighter.
Uh right now he's the only one that can win.
Uh I don't see that changing in the near future.
Um, but these other folks, if they aren't in a race and they know they can't win, I would wonder why they're still in there.
They're in there for a different purpose other than saving our country, and all of us need to be on board with doing all we can to save our country right now.
Anyway, I gotta give you huge props, Governor.
I love I love this program.
And you know, if you're out there, how do people get in touch with this and and get the process started with Freedom Works here and this this effort to um you know find workers and high paying career job opportunities in South Dakota.
Yeah, absolutely.
Get on Freedomworks Here dot com and we will connect you with all the information you need, answer your questions.
But just since we aired this new ad, um Sean, after your show, I think that night we had two hundred more people apply to to move to South Dakota and connect with our folks in our Department of Labor to start working through the process.
So, you know, it makes a difference.
If people know there are opportunities, they're grabbing them right now because they want a different life.
So FreedomWorks Here dot com will get them started and and I've even done a few phone calls to some of these people myself and encouraged them to come.
I I think it's great to talk to these Americans that they need a lot of people.
It's kinda it's kind of nice to to hear from an elected official that is actually that you know that gives a a darn about people's lives and and and their futures and is providing them opportunities like this.
It's kind of refreshing, Governor.
Uh great job.
Appreciate you just sharing it with us.
Absolutely.
You have a great day, Sean.
You too.

Uh go to this website, Sean for Hillsdale.com, S-E-A-N-F-O-R Hillsdale.com.
Anyway, so you know, all this devastation in in Maui out in Hawaii.
By the way, Hawaii, I've only been there once.
Beautiful.
I mean, it's it's definitely worth a trip at some point in your life if if you like to if you can get away and you can afford a vacation.
I know a lot of people can't right now, but I've been there once.
I actually was a working vacation for me.
And uh, but I loved it.
I had a great time there.
And I met wonderful people there.
And anyway, and you know, Joe Biden, you know, sets off this what should be a media fire storm.
This is his Katrina moment, you know, answers no when asked about the deadliest U.S. fire in more than a century, because he was headed to the Delaware beach.
You know, and and he did it again yesterday.
Refused to comment yesterday on what's going on in Hawaii.
The death toll now is up to 11 people, and we're missing some 1,300 people.
You know, one guy yesterday, can you tell us about your Hawaii trip, sir?
Reporter asking on Air Force One.
Uh and anyway, it's uh the president goes, No, not now.
I'm going to be leaving.
I'll be there on Monday.
Okay, and the earlier excuse was, well, I didn't want to get in the way.
Excuse me, the response has been agonizing.
There are 1,300 families that have no idea if their loved one is gonna make it home alive.
They don't know where they are.
And it's gone on day after day after day, and the reaction has been cold.
It has been, it has been distant.
It has not lived up to any standard that we would expect in the United States.
Now, if it was a Republican president, it'd be a very different response.
You know, uh he's asked, you know, any new details on the Maui trip?
Listen.
No, not now.
I'm gonna be leaving there on Monday.
Why is the thing?
Sir, and the family is here.
Thank you, Mr. President.
Then he asked the press, the mob, the compliant media mob to uh leave.
Thank you for coming in.
Thank you so much.
All right, guys.
Thank you so much.
I mean, it really is just unbelievable and and so obnoxious.
I I I I frankly am even stunned at the the cold, callous reaction.
But Democrats like the claim that there's the most compassionate party ever.
Anyway, let's go to uh Bill is in Maryland.
Bill, how are you?
Glad you called, sir.
Thank you, Sean.
Uh, thank you for taking my call.
Sean, you know, there's been a lot of talk, uh, you yourself included about whether Donald Trump is going to be able to get uh a fair trial in these various jurisdictions.
And most of the most of the focus has been voting on the you know, the voting outcomes uh in the in the presidential election, which is, you know, which is fair.
Uh but but less has been said about possible grounds for judicial recusal.
Some, and Trump has called for it, but there hasn't been a lot of specifics, just a lot of generalities.
But I came across something the other day that I found absolutely eye-opening about Judge Chutkin, and this is obviously the DC case and and something she some things she has said, uh, and this is from a a BBC article that I came across, so this is published in you know legitimate media some things that she has said to Well wait a minute, when you say that you you know I don't consider the B VC legitimate media necessarily.
I'm not sure why you're giving them the the such high regards I mean I would say that you know that it is is pretty abusively biased left but okay I'll you know I I would think we're legitimate media too.
I'm a member of the press also.
Of course you are but fair fair enough but uh they they published a quote from her to a January 6th defendant and keep in mind she is going i central to the trial before her will be Donald Trump's state of mind and whether he believed he had actually lost the election and she said to this defendant um it is not standing up to America to stand up for one man who knows full well that he lost that that's a clear and unequivocal statement.
She's predetermined an issue central to the trial that's going to be held well she's gonna have to say that.
Now this is what most people don't understand and and I went into great depth and detail this week on this most of these charges you have to show criminal intent that the person that you're accusing of this crime, this racketeering effort knew that what they were doing was wrong.
That they knew it but they did it anyway and they had the intent to break the law.
That's gonna you know I this is one of the reasons I did not like hate crimes legislation because I thought hey you know how do you punish people how do you ascertain what their motive was for doing anything.
Now maybe somebody writes a screed or a manifesto and you put the two together and you say okay obviously this motivated the person to me it's it's almost irrelevant if you commit murder you get charged with murder you and if you murder somebody in cold blood you should get the penalty you know and you want to give added time well you know look at the case of James Byrd that was the the infamous ad used in in the 2000 election.
Now George W. Bush's governor supported the death penalty for the evil people that dragged this innocent man to his death behind the car.
It was horrific and he supported the death penalty in that case uh as I would have and anyway then there was an ad uh the Democratic party got a family member you know to to cut this ad and say George Bush didn't support hate crimes legislation and it was like my father was killed all over again.
And it's just unfair because you know he wanted the death penalty for this evil act.
You know what what what else it does at that point does it matter what the thinking was of the people behind that act it was evil.
They killed an innocent human being I I believe you kill an innocent human being you know if you can prove it beyond any doubt at all you get the death penalty.
If there's any if you don't have that kind of proof the innocence project has kind of convinced me you've got to be careful with the death penalty.
Because there have been too many times that new forensic science has proven people put in jail that were innocent and that's we can't risk that with the death penalty.
So but if you have a videotape of somebody killing somebody in cold blood, yeah, give them the death penalty uh the people responsible for 9-11, I'd give them the death penalty.
What Joe Biden is doing there, I don't know.
Absolutely but the the point here is Sean she has already made up her mind on this issue before she has heard a bit of evidence in the trial of Donald Trump.
She can't hear this case.
She has to recuse herself And you're you're talking about the judge.
Yes, she made this statement in open court on the record, disseminated to the media.
And isn't it ironic that she's issuing orders warning Trump about not saying things that might taint a jury pool when she's making these statements again in open court.
Well she also said she you can't compare the riots on January sixth to the summer riots of twenty twenty.
Um as if that there was a a reason or a justification for that.
And I I I'm sorry I disagree.
Unlawful acts are unlawful acts, period.
Listen, I I don't disagree with you and she's given out the harshest sentences to people that have gone before her court and i on issues regarding January sixth.
But I don't think there's going to be a recusal nor do I think there's going to be a change of venue.
And as I've been saying, I would anticipate you know the likelihood is probably going to be in New York in Washington, Fulton County, the odds are very high that Donald Trump can't get a fair trial.
And that he's he his legal remedy would be on appeal.
And I think that those will be real cases.
I think it's a very high bar that the statute that he was charged under in Georgia.
It's a very hard bar to meet how do you I I would argue having interviewed Donald Trump as often as I have that he passed a lie detector test if you asked him if he still believed it today that he won that won the 2020 election.
Well I certainly I personally think they should make the motion for recusal and there's a bigger issue here.
These these comments aren't going to be limited to Tanya Chuckkin in that court.
Every liberal in that court is going to have made these kind of comments and that's most of that court and does it could there be enough there if you go through all of these hearings that it actually supports a motion to change venue because you have had so many prejudicial comments coming from so many judges.
Bosberg has called Trump a charlatan from the bench that that an appeals court would say this case does not belong here.
I I I just hope Trump's deep uh defense team is is looking at this 'cause I think it's really potential fertile ground.
I agree it's it's generally a long shot.
You are correct.
But uh these comments are severe.
Yeah.
Well anyway, um thirty one defendants have gone before this particular judge and she sentenced every one of them to at least some jail time uh even in cases by the way where the prosecutors were not even requesting it and she's you know she has been very candid when sentencing defendants to heavy punishments um it's not patriotism it's not standing up for America to stand up for one man who knows full well that he lost that's the quote that you're referring to instead
of the Constitution he was trying to subvert.
Yeah I would say she's already made up her mind.
Um but I've been telling everybody that and and you're just adding more information that that proves my point.
Uh Bill, thank you.
Back to our busy phones this Friday.
Uh Thomas New York next on the Sean Hannity Show.
Thomas happy Friday siren in the media ask the Georgia Attorney General and the other Georgia district attorney why didn't they join Fanny uh Fannie Willis in indictment the media should be asking the attorney general that question of Georgia and also the other district attorney.
You know, did they look at the case?
You know what was their reasoning for not joining uh district attorney Fanny uh Willis in this case and I also I also I'm not I can't remember but I believe uh district attorney uh Willis said that this also happened in other states as well.
So if uh I don't uh if that's the case why didn't the other attorney generals in other states also join in this as well and that's what needs to be asked of these people.
Yeah well I will tell you you know I I who was one of the presidential candidates I forget which one brought up the idea that you know change of venue has got to be you know more common if we're going to have equal justice equal application of our laws.
Does that sound like a fair statement to you?
Oh no I I absolutely agree but I'm I'm surprised that nobody has asked the Georgia Attorney General he's the chief uh law enforcement of the state and the other district attorneys because this they're claiming that this also happened in other counties in Georgia why haven't they joined in?
Why why ha did they look did they investigate what uh into uh what uh the allegations I thought the process was not handled properly in as much as when they went to Cobb County, and I lived in Georgia, so I know the the county breakdown politically, although Cobb County since I have left has has gone a little you know more s more to the left.
Uh however, uh what remains true is Fulton County, DeCab County remain pretty solid blue counties in Georgia.
And so uh, you know, it's I just when you when you have of somebody as high profile as Donald Trump and he's being tried in New York City, where you know twelve, thirteen percent of the the population voted for him.
Not a very high number, and five percent, a little over five percent in DC, and twenty-three, four percent in Georgia, Fulton County.
You know, it's kind of hard to get into a jury pool and and get pick a fair jury.
I think you agree with that too, right?
No, I I I I absolutely agree with what so I don't think the other counties, I mean, uh them weighing in isn't gonna matter.
When they did the recount in Cobb County, I thought that was that's that's not where we would have expected the trouble.
I mean, I b I do believe it was uh Rapsenberger who had previously said that Fulton County had had a long history of of electoral problems, and but I think he thought that the system that he put in place was better.
That's my take on it.
That's my read on it.
I don't know, I don't know the guy.
Anyway, appreciate the call.
Thank you.
