So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz Now, wherever you get your podcasts.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup and information overload hour.
Toll-free, let me give you our number.
It is 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
One of the things that really angers me is the stupidity of the Biden administration, the left, the radical climate alarmists in general, their policies, they fail on every front.
Never mind, our borders are wide open.
Never mind, you know, we rely on countries that hate us for the lifeblood of our economy.
Never mind that, you know, their defund dismantle, no bail laws has created chaos all over the country.
You know, never mind that I can't name a single successful thing that they have done since Joe Biden's been president.
And now we're looking at the world basically on fire.
And we have a guy that can't utter three sentences when he's on Air Force One.
I played it again last night.
Let me remind you, this is Joe Biden on Air Force One.
This is right after he left Israel.
He'd only been on the ground, what, a little over six hours, if my memory serves me.
Listen to how incoherent he is.
Can you talk about the impact of meeting the survivors and the first responders?
That's all personally.
Look, I spent an hour and a half about 17 or 18 before this time.
And somehow safe this virtually every mass shooting, every circumstance where a large number of people have been victimized and lost.
I spoke with our Defense Department.
It says it's highly unlikely that it was railies with a different footprint and intercepted suit anyway.
And so that's why, if you notice, I didn't say it at first.
I wanted to make sure that I knew.
And look.
And I'm not suggesting that Hamas deliberately did it either.
That's that whole thing, gotta know how to shoestring.
And it's not the first time Hamas has worn something that didn't function.
Very well.
That is the president of the United States of America.
How frightening is that?
It's scary.
It's unbelievable.
$100 million and he's that stupid.
And what are you getting in exchange for that?
If you're going to give them the $100 million, can we at least have all the hostages released?
I'm not a big believer in paying ransom for hostage, but apparently Joe is.
But he's getting nothing in exchange for $100 million.
He's giving the money to Hamas.
Anybody that believes anything other than that is beyond naive.
Here's Biden saying the first shipment of humanitarian aid for Gaza is on its way.
President Menow and I discussed again yesterday the critical need for Israel to operate by the laws of war.
That means protecting civilians in combat as best as they can.
And the people of Gaza urgently need food, water, and medicine.
Yesterday, in discussions with the leaders of Israel and Egypt, I secured an agreement for the first shipment of humanitarian assistance from the United Nations to Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
If Hamas does not divert or steal this shipment, these shipments, we're going to provide an opening for sustained delivery of life-saving humanitarian assistance for the Palestinians.
And as soon as you stop looking, guess what they're going to do?
They're going to take that assistance and use that money for themselves because they rule in Gaza with an iron fist.
Anybody, anyway, somebody that really completely understands the nature of these situations, you probably remember him.
He's a guest on a number of times.
He is the founder of the Shadow Warriors Project.
He's one of the survivors of Benghazi.
You might remember.
Remember the CIA annex that was not far from where the attacks on our embassy were taking place?
Remember they were told to stand down multiple times, and then finally they said to hell with it, and they went anyway, risking their entire careers to do so.
And as a result, they saved innocent lives.
Mark Oz Geist is with us, and he's pretty familiar with Hamas and terrorist groups like Hezbollah.
And he's very familiar with hostile regions in the Middle East and has a lot to say on all of this.
Mr. Mark Oz Geist, great to have you back, my friend.
I know you miss me.
I do.
I do.
It's been a long time, but thank you, Sean, for having me.
All right, let's go over.
Remind people, first of all, of what you went through, that you are given one standdown order after a standdown order after a standdown order, and you know that our embassy is under fire.
You have the ability to help rescue Americans, and they keep telling you not to do it.
Yeah, that's exactly it.
I mean, you know, we know what's going on over there, and we know that we are the only ones that can help.
And despite what it would cost us, we chose to go over and do that.
And thank goodness we did, because if it wouldn't have been for that, there would have been a lot more people that were killed and injured that night.
I'm not sure anybody would have survived if it hadn't been for the courage and bravery of you and others.
And you did pay a heavy price at the time.
And it's so sad to me, but I'm so grateful that there are warriors like you out there.
All right, so you know a lot about Hamas.
You know a lot about Hezbollah.
You know that their aim is the destruction of Israel.
It looks like this incursion is quite imminent, and it looks like it's going to be a two-front war.
And then we have a big question mark on what the Iranians may or may not do.
I'm not sure how to interpret their comment.
Well, your time is up.
What does that mean?
They're threatening direct involvement themselves if they get involved.
To me, all bets are off at that point.
Yeah, I agree.
I think what we're going to see is if they get involved, I think where we'll see that first is in their own, almost in their own backyard, their neighbor in Iraq, where we still have quite a few troops that are working there.
I mean, we saw that, I believe it was yesterday, we've seen, and it's been reported, that there were some drone attacks on our military bases, and there were some injuries both in Iraq and in Syria.
And that's what we're facing.
That's what it's going to be.
And with this government and this administration, I mean, they can't do anything right, and they haven't yet.
Am I wrong in my analysis that any aid money, the $100 million Biden is sending to Palestinian, so-called, you know, the Palestinian people for humanitarian relief.
Am I wrong in my analysis?
There's no way in hell that money's getting to them.
That money's going to end up in the hands of Hamas.
Am I wrong?
Oh, 100%.
I mean, if you want a great example of it, go back and I think, what is it, the 30 or 40-year anniversary of Blackhawk Down.
The same thing happened under another Democratic president, Bill Clinton, where we tried to give aid through the UN to monitor it, and the warlords took it and did what they wanted with it.
And we're going to see the same thing right here.
So you know firsthand you were involved in a military engagement to help evacuate church, a church group from Bethlehem who were trapped after Hamas and terrorists in Hamas erupted by using intel from contacts in the region as tourists were slamming the State Department.
What can you tell us about that operation?
Yeah, I mean, I got to give the grace to Christ.
I mean, he put the elements in place that we could use.
And I got called by a friend whose sister was a part of that group.
And they were told by the State Department that on Saturday evening or Sunday morning that they should just stay in place.
There's no emergency.
Wait until we call you.
And it sounded eerily familiar to me.
So I had told him I will do what I can.
And I contacted some contacts that I have that are in Israel, got some on-ground intel, gave the group information on how to get out.
We checked on the, finding out which border crossing into Jordan would be best because they were getting information that, and we verified it, that the airport in Tel Aviv was closing down or limiting the flights in and out.
And even if they would have got there, there was no guarantee they could have flown out and it would be untargeted.
So I made this suggestion to him, you know, we've got a place that you can get across.
Why don't you go do that?
And they were able to get to the border.
There was, I think they were stuck there for probably five or six hours because of the number of other people crossing.
And they were able to get across and into Amman, Jordan on Tuesday morning.
All right, quick break more with Mark Oz Geist, the founder of the Shadow Warriors Project, one of the survivors and heroes that helped save lives on September 11, 2012 in Benghazi.
Just a great guy.

Listen, the world is a very dangerous, it's a very evil place.
What is your plan?
All right, we continue.
Mark Ozgeist is with us.
He is the founder of the Shadow Warriors Project, also one of the survivors of Benghazi, one of the people that was at the annex that was adjacent to where the embassy was.
And he ended up being a hero, saving many lives that day.
That goes back to September 11, 2012.
You know, I thought it was bad when we abandoned Americans behind enemy lines in Afghanistan because Joe Biden foolishly allowed the Taliban, you know, to march all the way up from the south to the north and then surround Karzai International Airport.
I thought that was a disaster.
That's when we lost 13 American lives there.
And then Americans in the end were abandoned before they got them out because it was such poor planning and execution by Joe and the people around him.
Although he claims it was such a great success, it was anything but a success.
I thought that was bad enough.
And we also abandoned our allies that had been supporting our efforts in Afghanistan for two decades.
And many of those people have ended up dead because Joe abandoned them on top of the billions and billions of military equipment that he left behind, some of which we think might be being used by terror groups around the world.
And anyway, and, you know, a lot of those people were killed, another broken promise.
Now you have governors like Ron DeSantis have had to step up because the Biden administration was telling people, Americans on the ground in Israel, those that weren't killed or taken hostage, that wanted to get the hell out of there, you know, to get a commercial flight when there were no commercial flights leaving.
And then when they finally decided, the administration finally decided that, okay, well, they would charter planes and try and get some Americans out.
Then they're charging people for their flight home.
You know, Ron DeSantis set planes for Floridians, and he didn't charge them a penny.
He did it because it was the right thing to do.
You know, I'm sure there were empty seats on Air Force One this week that remained empty and he could have put Americans on that plane on the way home also.
He didn't do that either.
No, he didn't.
And that would have been, that could have been one of the better things that he did do.
But, you know, Corey Mills is in country.
He had the flight coming out Monday.
There was a chartered flight that he was able to get out, as well as Operation Dynamo, Tim Kennedy, and his organization, SOA, which is Save Our Allies, is working in and around Israel to get Americans out.
And it's unfortunate that it's come to this point in our history that nonprofit organizations are doing a better job under this current administration than they can do themselves.
Corey's been kicking ass.
We had him on the program yesterday, and he's got nearly 100 people out already.
I mean, he's crushing it.
You know, it's amazing what smart, brave people like Corey and yourself are able to do.
We really appreciate you being with us.
Mark, I always enjoyed our time together.
I mean, for a period there, I thought you were going to be my co-host.
But I think the work you're doing is a lot more important than what I'm doing here.
But we appreciate you always.
I hope you know that.
No, I don't think so.
I think that it's all of us that are doing everything that we can.
You know, the Lord gives us the opportunity to do what we need to do in the space that we're designed to work in.
And it's all important to take care of this country.
Look, I'm getting fired upon every day, but it's not with bullets, the stuff you're getting fired upon with.
I'm just getting verbal attacks and lies and propaganda misinformation.
I think it's a lot safer doing what I'm doing, but I admire you guys, all of you guys, so much.
And I'm very appreciative that we have such courageous people that are our fellow Americans.
So thank you, my friend.
My best to everybody as well.
You too.
Thank you, and God bless.
And if I can, do I have a second?
Shadow Warriors Project is raising money to help all these other organizations.
So if people are out there that want to help donate, if they can, that would be great.
If not, their prayers for all the Americans that are around the world and in the Middle East, because if this goes as bad as it could, we're going to be needing a lot more people doing what we're doing to help Americans across this world.
What's the website?
ShadowWarriorsProject.org.
ShadowWarriorsProject.org.
We'll put a link on Hannity.com.
Mark Osgeist.
Thank you, my friend.
Continuing to build the foundation for conservative victory.
Victory.
Now, back to the Sean Hannity Show.
25 to the top of the hour.
Thank you for being with us this Friday.
We're going to get to your calls in a minute.
800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
You know, occasionally something amazing comes along that's a game changer.
Changes the game drastically.
You know, cell phones, microwave ovens.
Can you imagine life without a microwave?
I can't imagine life without a GPS navigation on my phone or else I'm dead.
I'll be lost.
I don't know if I'd find my way home.
I'd be like Joe.
Anyway, our friends at Rhino Metals, they are America's leading safe manufacturer, launched an amazing new safe design, and it falls into this category.
It is unbelievable.
It's called SafeX, and it uses a completely new way of locking your safes, your gun safes, other safes that gives you what's called anti-pry protection and security of safes that cost thousands and thousands of dollars more.
Right now, you're going to say big on these revolutionary gun safes, and they'll deliver it right to your home.
They are such a great value, the best safe you'll ever find, and you don't have to take my word for it.
Look at their side-by-side break-in testing videos.
You can see it on their website, rhinosafe.com.
You spell rhino like the animal, R-H-I-N-O-S-A-F-E, oneword.com.
And you're going to see for yourself why SafeX gun safes outperform all these other brands that cost four or five times as much.
I've owned plenty of gun safes over the years.
I have a gun collection, and I can tell you without a doubt, rhino metal safes are better in every way than anything I've ever had or seen.
And every safe is backed by the best warranty, support, service.
You just can't ask for a better company.

You're not going to regret it.
I don't think I can play Joe Biden, you know, after he leaves Israel on Air Force One enough just to let you know, you want to know why world leaders didn't want to meet with Joe?
I don't know.
I'm venturing an educated guess here that his inability to deal with complicated issues cognitively probably played a big part in it, and they just didn't want to waste their time with him.
But they're meeting other leaders from around the world.
They just didn't have time for Joe.
Very embarrassing for our country, as is this tape as he left Israel.
Can you talk about the impact of meeting the survivors and the first responders?
that's all personal look i i spent an hour and a half about 17 or 18 before and I don't know how to say this, virtually every mass shooting,
every circumstance where a large number of people have been victimized and lost.
I spoke with our Defense Department.
It says it's highly unlikely that it Israelis would have had a different footprint and intercepted soon.
Anyway, and so that's why, if you notice, I didn't say it first.
I wanted to make sure that I knew.
And look, and I'm not suggesting that Hamas deliberately did it either.
That's that whole thing, Donald How to Shoestrate.
You know, and it's not the first time Hamas has launched something that didn't function very well.
Pretty pathetic.
Pretty unbelievable.
All right, let's go to Casey in the free state of Florida.
Casey, how are you?
Hey, Hey, it's been a long time.
I'm a little worried about you again.
What are you worried about?
I'm not worried about me.
Well, Sean, I mean, your party's falling apart.
You're supporting.
What party am I a part of?
Tell me what party I'm a part of.
You are part of the Red Hat Club, and Make America Great Again, which is, you know.
You mean the Republican Party?
You're talking about the Republican Party trying to pick a speaker, are you not?
Right.
I mean, Jim Jordan.
I'm not a Republican.
Seniors.
Listen, I'm just telling you, I'm not a Republican.
And by the way, one of the major reasons why is this predictable show we've been watching unfold before our eyes.
Democrats, you're right.
Your side circles the wagons and Republicans create circular firing squads.
That's why I'm a registered conservative.
But let us not parse our words.
What's on your mind?
What do you like?
What do you like about Jim Jordan?
I mean, first off, besides Trump, he was the brain behind January 6th, helped trying to accomplish.
Okay, what evidence do you have to make such an allegation?
What do you mean he's the brains behind January 6th?
Explain that.
Besides Trump, he was one of the ones that helped out execute.
Uh-uh-uh.
I want evidence.
What evidence do you have that he orchestrated what happened on January 6th?
Tell me the evidence you have.
He gave tours to the white nationalists, the proud.
Give us the evidence that you have.
He was involved in the plotting of January 6th.
Do you have any evidence?
No, you don't, do you?
You don't have evidence.
Okay, tell me, what is the evidence that you're making an accusation?
Tell me what evidence you have.
Sir, no, sir.
They testified, and that's what this is.
Tell me the evidence that you have.
I don't want to hear about who testified.
What is the evidence?
The evidence is your own party.
It's flipping on you, guys.
The evidence is your own party.
That's not specific evidence that would be worthy of a courtroom conviction.
Give me the evidence you have.
You made a serious allegation.
What evidence do you have?
You had over 200 testimonies.
200 testimonies of who?
White nationalists, oath keepers, proud boys, his attorneys.
I've all switched.
All right, you're speaking.
You're rambling without any specifics.
Do you have any specific evidence that in any way connects Jim Jordan to the plotting, the planning, the scheming of January 6th?
Or are you just lying?
Because it sounds to me like you're lying.
I'm not lying.
This is your denial.
Okay, I'll give you one more chance.
What direct evidence do you have that he's responsible for the planning of January 6th?
Tell me the evidence, or I'm going to say goodbye.
Well, that's what's coming on all these testimonies right now.
Who?
Testimony from who?
That he planned January 6th.
What evidence do you have?
You don't have any.
Sean.
So stop making asinine allegations.
And if you really want to know what happened on January 6th, look, I'll send you to one of your media mob friends.
Go listen to Lester Holt and Lester Holt's report about how they had specific direct intelligence that they didn't act on that showed them that this was going to happen.
If you want more evidence, talk to former Capitol Police Chief Son, who also had rise, according to four people I have on tape that said they were in the room days before January 6th.
The troops, guard troops to protect the Capitol was Donald Trump.
And by the way, Chief Son was looking for guard troops in the days leading up to and the day of.
And you have your mayor, Muriel Bowser, in writing, rejected those troops.
That's a fact.
The person that's in charge of security in the House and the Capitol would be Nancy Pelosi.
They never investigated her phone.
They never got her text.
They never got her phone calls.
They never got any answers as to why she didn't use the intelligence that was given to everybody.
So for all of your hyperbole and your hatred of any and all things Jim Jordan and conservative, you just have to come up with evidence.
If you find it over the course of 100 years, will you please call us back and give it to us instead of wasting our time like you did today?
I feel like Levin right now.
Get off my phone, big dope.
Anyway, that's not as good as Levin, is it?
I can't do that.
Get off my phone, you big dope.
You know my favorite impression that you do.
Which one?
I don't even know.
Are you serious?
I don't remember.
I do have a lot of impressions.
Godfather, that is my favorite impression that you do.
I want to say to all you conspiracy theorists on the left out there, I want to say that if anything shall befall my choice for Speaker and this day, I myself will personally hold all of you in this room accountable.
That's pretty much it.
That said, I will not break the peace that we have made here together today.
But my son, Michael, if anything shall befall him, I will hold all of you responsible.
You like that one?
That's really good.
Listen, I think that would have put more fear into the ayah tolls of Iran than Biden on Air Force One.
I think that may be true.
Back to our phones.
Let's say hi to James in the free state of Florida.
Maybe we have a normal caller from Florida.
What's going on?
Hey, Sean, pleasure to speak with you today.
My mother, Angela, is also a very frequent listener of yours.
I'm sure it wouldn't make her day if you gave her a shout out.
Sure.
What's your mom's name?
Angela.
Angela, you did a great job.
You raised James.
He's a good boy.
He's doing good things.
I'm proud of him.
I know you're proud of him, too.
But seriously, Angela, thank you for listening.
Hey, I appreciate that.
But I just had a little bit of a blurb on more or less what I think the kind of next couple of years are really going to look like for the United States based on the current conflicts that we have going on in the world, whether it be Middle East and Ukraine.
I realistically think that the U.S. is ramping up for what they see as the next world war, whether it's specifically events in the Middle East or with China or with the Russo-Ukrainian war.
And I think that there's a little bit of a strategy here that is kind of reminiscent to what World War II actually did and kind of breaks down into more or less a couple different stages, specifically stating that stage one being occupy the Russians with the Ukrainian conflict.
After that, more or less pivoting away from the Russian-Ukrainian war and leaving Europe to hold the bag, more or less, taking the entire continent of Europe and Europe.
Well, I would say that Europe has not done their fair share.
They've not stepped up to protect their own continent, and that infuriates me.
And they've relied on U.S. monies instead of putting up their own money.
This is in their backyard.
It's not our backyard.
And Joe Biden put handcuffs on the Ukrainians and their ability to actually fight the war in a way that would win the war.
I'm mad about both those things.
Yeah, and absolutely.
I mean, we're even starting to see this rhetoric as to pivoting away from the war in Ukraine with John Kirby sitting at the end of his end of the rope quote from just a little bit, and I think it was like last week.
I think we heard just the opposite from Joe Biden last night with his disjointed rambling back and forth, if you want to call it Oval Office Address.
I think he mentioned Ukraine more than what was going on in Israel.
I would have liked to have heard him talk more about the absolute barbaric treatment of the Israelis, how horrible this terrorist attack is.
I would have liked to have heard a more stern warning to Iran knowing their involvement in all of this.
I would have liked more specifics about what he's really going to do to help the Israelis that might be fighting a two-front war and might be facing a two-front war with Iran involving itself.
I would have preferred to hear things like that.
Yeah, and I completely agree with you.
My more satiac view is that this aid package that Biden has proposed is more or less going to be one to push a lot of funding over the line so we can more or less disassociate ourselves with it and focus our attention onto the Middle East, specifically with Israel.
It's going to bring it more or less into stage two is what I would at least imagine it to be.
I see us in between the stage one and stage two right now, where we are able to provide Israelist support.
And inevitably, when they do invade the Gaza Strip, it's going to push Hezbollah and the United States and thus Iran into the picture one way or the other.
From there, I can see it.
If we had a strong president, I think the Iranians would be have a very different posture than they currently have.
Joe Biden has emboldened them.
He's made them rich by turning a blind eye to their ability to sell their oil.
That has made them filthy rich.
America has more reserves than they do, and we could be filthy rich and we could pay down our debt and we can help all our allies.
But Joe's too stupid to do that.
He went in the opposite direction.
And so, you know, we find ourselves in a position where what I have been calling longer than anybody the new axis of evil that's emerged, China, Russia, Iran, it's getting pretty dire out there.
And does this have the potential to turn into a Middle Eastern powder keg?
Sadly, it does.
That should scare everybody.
Yeah, and I absolutely think it does.
I mean, we're already starting to see more of a formal coagulation of these, you know, greater access of evil powers, as you call them.
And I feel like, you know, our involvement isn't going to necessarily be some kind of troops on the ground, but in a way that we would provide some sort of strategic air support to our allies in the Middle East.
And from there, be enable to realistically commit troops to the ground because of the fact that we have tapped out our strategic petroleum reserves and dumped all of our ammunition and munitions into Ukraine.
From there, who knows how the next phase of that plays out.
But one possibility is that Iran gets involved, retaliates against the U.S., and hypothetically, it's some sort of attack on our infrastructure.
And we just so happen to be right on the edge of an economic meltdown, as we're all pretty much aware of.
And I could see the U.S. simply just using that to galvanize the public to more or less push us into a conflict with Iran, which, of course, no one wants, but at the end of the day, certainly push the agenda forward for them.
I only want to say this about your comments.
What you're describing, I take even deeper in my own mind, and it keeps me up at night.
How bad this can get in my head.
You know, I think I have enough knowledge, experience to justify my thought process on this.
And I don't even want to go into how dark this can be.
But between, yes, our economy failing, B, our lack of energy independence, C, a weak president on the world stage, D, hostile regimes and actors that are capable of anything.
I don't even want to tell you how bad I think this can get.
I really don't.
I want to be so wrong so badly that, you know, I pray that I'm wrong.
I pray that my head is just wild imaginations.
But I don't think I am that wrong.
It has all that potential and more.
I've got to run.
Hope you have a great weekend in your free state of Florida.
Okay, my friend?
God bless you.
