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.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
Alright, news roundup and information overload hour.
Toll free, let me give you our number, it's 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
I I I still, for the life of me, cannot understand why the Biden administration, well, I do understand the politics of it because they're under fire from the far left and their party and the you know Congresswoman Talibs and the squad and the rest of them, you know.
Oh, you're gonna lose your Muslim voters are not gonna be voting for you and blah, blah, blah.
Uh the issue with what happened when a terrorist organization that has in their charter the destroy the call for the destruction of Israel, when they kill 1,400 Israelis on a single day, take hundreds of others hostage, uh, when they've been building for years a network of terror tunnels, when they've been firing for years hundreds of thousands of rockets into Israeli cities, they have been at war with Israel for a long time.
And October the 7th, that was it.
That was the light in the sand.
Israel's very existence now, in my view, hangs in the balance.
And they now have to deal in the north with Lebanon and Hezbollah.
They have to deal with the Houthi rebels that have declared war against Israel out of Yemen.
They have to deal with the Syrians firing rockets into Israel.
They have to deal with the big issue at hand, which is Hamas, and that's out of Gaza.
And yet, in the middle of all of this, Joe Biden and his, you know, administration, led by the biggest idiot that we've ever had in the history of this country, as Secretary of State, the guy that blew the Afghanistan withdrawal, Winkin Tony Blinken, urging Israel not to reoccupy Gaza.
And again, we we need a you meet we need a humanitarian pause.
Oh, you mean one in which Hamas, the terror group, will re-arm, uh, the one in which they will get supplies and food and and be better able for the next wave of fighting.
That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard, but this is Tony Blinken.
We all agree that humanitarian pauses would advance key objectives to protect Palestinian civilians, to increase the sustained flow of humanitarian assistance.
The United States believes key elements should include no forcible displacement of Palestinians uh from Gaza.
Not now, not after the war.
No use of Gaza as a platform for terrorism or other violent attacks.
No reoccupation of Gaza after the conflict ends.
Then John Kirby is saying that the relationship between the U.S. and Israel is extremely close.
We're friends, but we don't agree on every nuance.
Why?
Because they're trying to stop them from protecting their country.
Imagine if you extrapolate out the population.
I've said this so many times.
This would be the equivalent.
1,400 dead Israelis would be the equivalent of losing 38,000 Americans in a single day.
Now, we know our response after 9-1101.
We lost 2,977 Americans.
Israelis, per capita, they lost percentage-wise, a hell of a lot more.
Imagine if 9-11 was 38,000 Americans, God forbid, or these uh these open border policies of Joe Biden, God only knows who's crossing these borders.
We I'm telling you, I guarantee terror cells have entered the country and Joe Biden's responsible.
Anyway, I want to play for you, John Kirby.
Oh, we don't agree on every nuance, meaning, no, we're gonna pressure Israel to stop fighting and protecting their homeland.
Listen.
Can you characterize the closeness of the relationship right now?
It's extremely close.
And we're as was transmitted by the president in the call, Prime Minister Netanyahu yesterday, we remained solidly behind Israel as they continue to try to eliminate this threat to their people and to their sovereignty, and they're going to continue to get security assistance from the United States.
There's no daylight there whatsoever.
Now look we're friends.
And friends don't have to agree on every single nuance and every single word.
Um the Prime Minister speaks for a sovereign nation and for a sovereign people.
And he should obviously, you know, be queried about the points that he's making, but it doesn't mean that we're somehow backing away from our friend and our ally Israel, the strongest ally we have in the Middle East, or we're backing off our support for what they're trying to do to protect their people.
Then we have uh uh Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricis is gonna join us in a second, and he's the IDF spokesman that says that they have been providing four-hour windows for Palestinians to evacuate to South Gaza.
Long before the Israelis began their incursion.
They have been sending out text messages and leaflets daily warning people to get out.
The only people that have been forcing them to stay are the Hamas terrorists.
Now we're discovering that buried deep underneath hospitals, they have their terror tunnels.
Oh, why didn't we know that before?
Anyway, here is Lieutenant Colonel with the IDF Jonathan uh Conricus.
listen what he has to say to tactical little pauses up to an hour at a time i'm wondering how would the ideas carry that out how would you decide when and how did it take those pauses We already are.
And uh it's only regretful that I cannot see the visuals uh on CNN, but uh really we already are uh for the last four consecutive days.
We have windows of transport of civilians of uh safe zones from uh 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. where the Palestinians are informed ahead of time by us that we are going to hold our fire in order to allow them to evacuate safely from the north, the combat areas to relative safety in the South.
All right, Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricas joins us now.
Uh sir, welcome to the program.
And first, my deepest sympathy, and I know I speak for everyone that listens to this program.
You know, our deepest sympathy, number one and number two, our biggest hope is you win the war.
You defeat your enemies.
You defeat the terrorists to the north, the terrorists to the south, and anybody else that wants to bring harm to your country or those pledging to wipe Israel off the off the map.
Thank you.
Thank you very much for those words, and thank you for having me.
Uh and I know that you speak for so many.
Maybe their voices aren't reflected on uh other networks, and I have been dealing and answering questions, a lot of questions about what we're doing and why we're doing.
And I think that what you're saying just isn't reflected what people really people feel about what's going on in Israel, not only in the US, but specifically in the US.
And it is important that you say what you are saying, and I will carry your message to uh all my all all the people in the IDF who are now fighting on the ground in the air, at sea, and in many other domains in order to defend our country.
I've been personal friends with, I've known Prime Minister Netanyahu for many, many years.
Uh you may not know this Lieutenant Colonel, but I've been in those terror tunnels.
Uh I've been to Steyrot, uh the a city that got had many, many people murdered on October the seventh.
I'd been there.
I'd been there during conflict.
I've been there when the night before of local kibbutz was hurt hit with rockets.
Uh I've been in the underground bunker playgrounds, kids can't play outside in that city.
I've been to the police uh station there and and all the rockets they had recovered, ten thousand rockets in ten years had been fired from Gaza into that one small little border town.
Uh it's uh it's it's heart wrenching to see what you're living through.
Uh to me I only see one option, and that's the military option.
And that means that neither Gaza nor Lebanon can remain launching pads for the rockets that they've been firing into your country now going on for decades.
Yeah, it's not only about the rockets.
I think that what many in Israel understood sadly, a very, very traumatic awakening on the morning of October the seventh was that we have allowed a situation where there are armed, highly trained and unfortunately skilled and well prepared enemy combatants, terrorists, that the only thing that they want to do is to invade into Israel and butcher Israeli civilians and take them hostage.
Uh that is the that was the battle plan of Hamas for October the seventh, and it's basically a page out of the book that was written by Khezbalah in the north.
And I don't know if all of your viewers know it, but now there are two hundred and fifty thousand internally displaced Israelis that have been evacuated from their homes, both in the south, the place that you said is the rot, and you you you explained everything about it and uh the the different kibbutzes, the different communities in the south.
We've evacuated those, and uh about twenty five cities and communities up north because they're close to the border and they would be within striking range from Lebanon.
So by the way, we are supporting an organization on this program called the Inner International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Uh they are on the ground in your country right now supporting the over two hundred thousand Israelis that have been displaced that are in desperate need of of critical essentials like food and medicine and emergency supplies.
Uh we have a special website, Hannity4Israel dot com.
Uh and I ask anybody that can help them out, uh, you are confirming everything that we've known from them, and that is that uh a lot of the people are in desperate need right now because the country's kind of busy fighting a two front war and beyond.
True, and those efforts are very, very important.
What you just said, and I thank you for it.
Uh that is outstanding.
Uh and yes, I'm aware of the organization.
I think it's not the first time that they're contributing to people in need in Israel, and it's a beautiful and uh really merciful thing to be doing.
Uh but the bottom line is that people in in Israel have understood that we cannot have this reality where we have where we we have allowed terrorists to be so close to our communities, and on October seventh we saw through the failure of the organization that I represent, the IDF, uh we failed to defend our civilians.
We g we let the enemy get too close.
We didn't have enough intel and preparedness, and unfortunately we are suffering the consequences.
But doesn't that mean militarily how do we define victory here?
Because I don't know, I'm a I'm looking at this very differently.
And if you're in Sterot and you look out in the horizon, you can see with the naked eye just how close Gaza is.
It takes thirteen seconds for for a rocket fired in Gaza to hit that town.
And to me, it's almost as if Gaza cannot remain an area where anybody that has any ties to terror can ever be again.
And I don't know how you accomplish that military w uh uh goal.
Yeah, it's a long long process.
I'd say that the ultimate victory would be to hear the laughter of Jewish children playing in the backyards of their homes in Zderot and in all the communities around.
And in order to achieve that, we have to make sure that there is absolutely no military infrastructure in Gaza and no organizational capacity to uh threaten Israel.
That means to dismantle Hamas, its leadership and its military assets and a lot of its personnel.
I don't necessarily say we have to kill each and every last one of the foot soldiers of Hamas, but definitely leadership and uh important officers and high ranking officers, they will have to be taken off the board.
And we will have to do it in such a way that sends such a resounding message to the other terror organizations in the region that this is what happens when you uh invade into Israel and kill more than a thousand Israeli civilians and take two hundred more than two hundred and forty Israelis hostage.
Alright, quick break war with IDF Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricus on the other side.
Then we'll get to your calls and a little announcement that I want to share with you, all coming up straight ahead.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.

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.
It's almost a dirty word.
One that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a rosetta stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Nafok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yeah, that's right.

Alright, we continue with IDF.
Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Conricus is with us.
How long do you believe this military effort is going to take?
It'll take time.
It'll take time because we're dealing with a battlefield that the enemy has prepared for a long time.
I am talking about hundreds of millions of dollars the worth of preparations that Hamas has done.
The tunnel network that they have built is really I think an engineering feat, no less.
And if they'd like to I would agree with you, having been in them myself.
Indeed.
And the what the tunnel that you were in, that's only a very small example of a what we call an attack.
By the way, how do you know which tunnel I was in?
How did you know that?
Because I was spokesperson uh shortly thereafter.
And I remember when you came.
And uh by the way, I when I was there about 200 yards away from us, a rocket was fired, and and I I watched the you know, little mushroom cloud grow up.
I mean, and that's everyday life for people in in Israel.
Indeed, in that area, and for too long has this been the reality.
And uh the tunnel that we you know that today, if you uh could imagine there's a city underneath the city in Gaza, and they have focused so much of the international aid that the world has been providing the Gaza Strip instead of building a future for themselves, they have been building their own digging their own graves with these tunnels.
And the tunnel network is the real enabler for all of Hamas military capabilities.
That's how they can fire rockets, that's how they can move around the battlefield, that's how they store their weapons, and that is where they're hiding now, waiting for international pressure to be applied to Israel strongly enough for us to stop the uh the fighting so that they can regroup and uh emerge uh victorious and claim uh you know and continue to apply pressure using the hostages that they've taken.
I appreciate your time.
I know that your task before you, the task before you is very difficult.
Our prayers are with you, and may the enemy of Israel, the enemies, the many that you have surrounding you be defeated, and that uh you are able to defend off yet again a very hostile uh group of people that you know have this sick twisted ideology that that killing, quote, the Jews is their mission in life.
It's really twisted.
Uh thank you, uh Lieutenant Colonel.
We appreciate it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And we will.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
Uh, we're gonna get to your calls here in a second.
800-941 Sean, if uh you want to be a part of the program, Linda.
Before I wrote Live Free or Die, America and the World on the Brink.
Um, I I made a promise, didn't I, ten years earlier that I was never gonna write another book?
You did indeed.
Why did I write that book?
You felt compelled to do so?
That's the only reason.
I don't like writing books.
I don't hate it.
I I hate it.
It's too hard.
You're very unhappy when you're writing a book.
Why does it always come back to uh when I'm in an occasional bad mood?
Why does it always come back to that?
Dude, when you write a book, you're not a happy camper, brother.
Especially when you had to record it.
Oh my gosh.
Uh it's the war doing the the audio book.
The audio book, yeah.
Oh, it's torture.
It's you know, and by the time you finish the manuscript and you finally you edit it, you sand it, you know, you you you remit, you sand it again, you prime it, you put it on, you know, three coats of finish, it looks perfect and mint, and you think you're done.
Oh, yeah, now you have to uh read your book too, you know, so it can be on a CD or uh or audio tape.
I'm like, why did I agree to this?
Um, but I'm glad I did them.
Um I have I wish I was I wish I was not as right as I have that book proves me to be.
And I did one other movie in my past life called Let There Be Light, and it was a Christian themed movie, and it was a little bit more on the serious side.
I mean, it it had it's but it was in many ways a love story, in many ways a story of redemption, and I did it because my heart was kind of moved towards it.
So I got approached by friends of mine, and uh first thing I did is I said, uh oh, I can feel it.
Here it comes again, and they came up with a fun, great Christmas movie idea.
And I said, Let me read the script.
I finally said, Let me let me look at this thing.
And when I read it, I was laughing, and I'm like envisioning how it's gonna look on on film, and I'm like, this is gonna be a fun movie.
And they, you know, you have all these old, you know, what's the book?
What's the movie, Elf that stars what's his name?
Uh Will Farrell, and that movie was 20 years old on Tuesday.
I know, right?
It's crazy.
So the idea was to produce a fun movie, family movie that people could see over the holidays.
And anyway, and I kind of fell in love with the project.
And then I broke my rule again, and I said, All right, I'll I'd love to be a part of it.
And the now, don't laugh at the title because it's it's a fun movie.
This is not a movie that's that's heavy, that's serious.
I think we have enough serious and heavy going on right now to last 50 lifetimes, but it's called Jingle Smells.
Uh, and you actually can see the trailer, we put it up on Hannity.com, and right now you can start viewing it.
Now, the way movies are done today is a lot differently.
Now, sometimes there's a sometimes there's a theater release.
We made an exclusive deal with Rumble, and it'll start airing on November the 23rd.
As that's right around Thanksgiving.
Oh no, it's Thanksgiving Day.
It is Thanksgiving Day.
It's for you to watch with your family.
Okay.
Now, right now, if you pre-order it, it's 15 bucks.
And that's that's that's for the whole family.
It's not like you go into the movie theater and you're paying, you know, 20 bucks a ticket for everybody.
It's 15 bucks.
I I promise you I didn't get into this for any money.
I'm doing this more of a labor of love, and I just thought it would be the perfect time to do something fun.
They actually have a website, and anyway, you can pre-order and save 25% and get it for $14.99 for your entire family.
And I think I think he's just gonna love it.
You and your family can watch it together.
It's a family-friendly movie, and you can pre-order it now.
Uh, and you go to what is it, jinglesmells.movie what dot com?
Is that the Nope, it's just Jinglesmells.movie.
It has a link right on there.
You can go to Rumble and you can pre-order it right now so that on Thanksgiving Day, they'll send you instructions on how to play it on your TV.
And it's one of those movies, you know.
I mean, you know it, you're the executive producer on this, but I will tell you, like, you got kids, they don't have to leave the room.
You don't have to worry.
There's nothing in it that nobody can see.
Everybody can laugh, everybody can watch it together.
And this is the funny thing.
I when I got involved, I said, Yeah, you know, I'll I'll just do a little small part.
No.
I had to I had to be elevated to the executive producer with my friend Logan uh Seculos, a dear friend of mine, and it's gonna premiere exclusively on Rumble on Thanksgiving Day.
It has an all-star cast, John Schneider, who I'm sure every all of you know, Ben Davies and Eric Roberts and Victoria Jackson.
You're everyone remembers her.
She she's amazing in the film.
I'm gonna be in the film.
The upcoming comedy, it's a Christmas comedy from myself and Logan Seculo, is gonna be again available Thanksgiving Day, and it really just has a cool cast.
I mean, do you remember John Snyder, the Duke's a hazard Academy Award nominee, Eric Roberts, The Dark Knight, Expendables?
I mean, these are real actors and actresses.
Victoria Jackson, who everybody knows.
The film features a war veteran who's forced to take a job with his dad, John Schneider, a quirky kind of garbage men buddies who are hired to conduct a secret mission destroying perfectly good toys by Christmas Eve.
I mean, how mean is that?
Now, these popular toys were pulled from the shelf after the film starred.
Uh, it happens to be James uh Storm, uh, and they're based on all of it being canceled.
So we bring it into modern day.
And the and he's canceled for his patriotic views.
Get the point.
So this is what this is what dra this is what literally dragged me into this project, and I'm so glad I did it.
Instead of destroying them, he takes on a secret identity known as Jingle Smells.
In other words, it becomes a Robin Hood for the holidays.
This is how this you've never seen a movie like this.
I'm telling you, it's interesting as hell.
And you it's kind of like Hollywood would never make a movie like this ever.
It's funny, it's heartwarming, it has a great message, and it exposes the woke agenda.
It avoids all crazy other agendas, and it's a movie that your entire family's gonna enjoy from Thanksgiving Day on through the holidays.
And I don't know, we're just thrilled to do it.
And again, Linda, you can give the website.
I hope people, you know, if they pre-order right now, you're gonna save a whopping 25%, and your whole family will watch it 25% cheaper.
I want you to pay less.
Yeah, so just it's listen, it's super easy.
It's jinglesmells.movie.
Uh Rumble is going to be playing it exclusively on Thanksgiving Day, so you'll be streaming it from Rumble.
This is Rumble's first non-documentary feature film, so it's super exciting for everybody involved.
It's very easy to do.
You go on right now, you click, you pre-order, you buy for 1499.
After Friday goes up to 1999, so you got a couple days left this week to go and get it.
And you can watch the trailer on uh jingle smells dot movie.
We're also releasing another piece of the movie in a couple of days.
So over the next couple of weeks, we're gonna be doing a lot of media.
You'll get to hear from the actors, you'll get to see more of the movie.
So we really want everybody to go and check it out.
And just by the way, we also we also have the trailer on Hannity.com.
We do.
We have it on uh Hannity.com as well with a write-up.
And um and a link uh if you want to order early.
If you're ordered now, you're gonna save 25%, and it'll be available to your family on on Thanksgiving Day.
And I think you're gonna like it.
I think your kids will like it, you're gonna like it.
What's cool about it is like the kids will be liking it for one reason, and then you're gonna see it's an anti-woke message behind it, and as a parent that with normal values, you're gonna be laughing.
That part will make you make that part will entertain you in a different way.
And that's that all by design.
Anyway, I hope you like it.
Um, I'm very proud of the final product, and I I couldn't be working with better people, especially Logan.
I mean, he was so hands-on.
Every time I'd come up with a Hannity idea, he's like, Sean, that's a really good idea, but why don't we do it this way?
And but honestly, Logan is very, very sweet.
He really is.
He's a great guy.
Great guy.
But they did take a lot of my suggestions and we had fun with it.
The whole project was fun.
Anyway, let's get to our phones.
800 uh 941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.

All right, to our phones we go.
Uh Duke is in California next on the Sean Hannity show.
Hi, Sean.
What's going on?
How are you?
Oh, good.
I uh I I do I saw that uh we had protests in our county, and uh I was surprised that happened.
We don't usually have stuff like that.
But uh to see here that Mr. Kessler was uh was killed during this from being confronted by a Palestinian supporter, you know, I just uh couldn't believe that.
I wish the videos and the pictures that I have seen I could I could show all of you.
I will tell you, I would bet probably 75% of this audience would not be able to handle it.
And I'm not saying this audience is weak.
I am just saying it is that bad.
It is i it is it is Nazi Germany stuff.
It is horrific.
It is evil on a level that you can't even imagine.
You know, it's right up there with you know, watching a beheading.
It's so terrible.
It's awful.
You know.
I watch the protests in other cities and see that you know it's it's always the Palestinian supporters confronting the uh Jewish supporters.
And uh in this case, it really turned out bad.
And uh my understanding, I think the uh Palestinian supporter crossed the street to confront him and then hit him with the uh blowhorn and uh knocked him down and he's he he passed away.
But uh I know the Ventura County Sheriff's gonna do a good investigation and get all the information, decide what charges they're gonna take bring.
Well, I'm gonna tell you something.
Anybody responsible for any of these atrocities, they need to be held accountable.
Uh, but why do I feel that we live in a country where it's only uh Republicans that get held accountable and not Democrats held accountable?
Why do I feel like there's a dual justice system?
You want to know why?
Because there is.
You know, Paul Kessler died protesting in support of Israel, and got to find out who is responsible for this.
They've got to.
You know, my poor friend and colleague, Gian O'Caldwell, his brother was shot and killed in Chicago.
He has been unrelenting in pursuing justice, and he's dealt with so many in law enforcement, they're so used to you know, people being shot, shot, and killed in Chicago.
It's not that they don't care.
They just they don't have the the ability to even handle like what five percent of their cases.
But he's unrelenting.
He's gonna get he's gonna get the person responsible or people responsible.
Anyway, it's so sad.
Um it's unbelievable, actually.
I can't believe what we're witnessing worldwide.
I can't believe what we're witnessing on our college campuses in the halls of Congress on the streets of New York.
I just can't believe it.
I never thought I'd see this in our lifetime.
Uh Duke, thank you.
Appreciate it.
The great state of Iowa, Don next on the Sean Hannity Show.
What's up, Don?
Hi, Sean.
Thank you for taking my call.
I appreciate it.
Thank you.
What's going on?
Oh, I'm uh truck driver coming up out of just left Dallas a few minutes back.
And uh by the way, every truck have been horrible.
Rates are horrible and fuel is up again.
In fact, I had an online discussion with a liberal who said, Well, if you uh are blaming Biden for everything, shouldn't you congratulate him because fuel uh is cheaper?
I said, Yeah, it's still twice the price it was uh in 2020.
How is you know, how should he get congratulations?
That's like congratulating the captain captain of a uh uh a pirate ship for only flogging you once a day instead of twice.
It's unbelievable.
It really is.
Um I know a lot of tr small trucking companies that have gone under.
You know some of the big ones that have gone under.
It was one company that have been running for 99 years, a big trucking company, they went under.
And I mean, it's just terrible.
I mean, it's it's the worst that it's ever been, and it's lasted the longest it ever has, according to the guys I know.
It it is, thank you.
I gotta send you one of my bumper stickers.
I wasn't able to send you any sweet corn because it was all gone, by the way, last time we talked.
Um, because of course it's seasonal, but I got a bumper sticker that I had.
It's the Ace Bait that says Trump 2024, and it says make trucking great again underneath it.
So I will uh include that with a package for you.
When the economy comes back, trucking will come back with it.
But I don't know how you guys survive in the meantime.
I really wish you my best because every single store we go to, every shelf we see fulls only because of you guys.

There's got you guys have got to be able to make what you were making, you know, prior to COVID.
