What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup information overload hour this Friday, toll-free.
It's 800 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, well, our two-tier justice system, as we discussed in the last hour with President Trump's attorney, Elena Hobba and Greg Jarrett is alive and it's well.
Let me take you back to July of 2016.
Remember, Hillary Clinton had all those top secret classified documents on her servers.
And that does not include the 33,000 deleted emails with bleach bit on her servers that they never retrieved.
That does not include the same emails that were on devices like BlackBerrys and iPhones that were smashed with hammers and SIM cards removed.
But remember, this is James Comey talking about no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute.
Now, no reasonable prosecutor will prosecute Joe Biden.
He's just going to get a stern lecture.
OK, just that's that's all he's going to get.
Slap on the wrist and then compare that to how Donald Trump was treated on the same issue about classified documents down at Morit Lago.
Listen.
From the group of 30,000 emails returned to the State Department in 2014.
110 emails in 52 email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received.
Eight of those chains contained information that was top secret.
36 of those chains contained secret information at the time, and eight contained confidential information at the time.
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information.
There is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case.
No reasonable prosecutor would ever prosecute a case.
Oh, okay.
Now we have this whole issue not only of classified documents that he's getting away from.
Now it looks like, you know, in spite of all the lies we have caught Joe Biden in as a candidate as a president.
I never talked to my son Hunter.
I never talked to my brother.
I never talked to anybody for that matter about their foreign business deals.
And then Devin Archer testifying that, well, in fact, he was on the call 20 times when Hunter Biden was talking with his foreign business partners.
And then, of course, dinners at Cafe Milano, you know, with people like, oh, the former First Lady of Moscow, a Russian oligarch, who interestingly never got sanctioned like other Russian oligarchs After Russia invaded Ukraine, um, and they gave three and a half million dollars to Hunter Biden, and according to Devin Archer, invested over a hundred million dollars in a real estate venture.
Now, Seamus Brunner is the director of research at the Government Accountability Institute.
He has a new book, and he calls it control artrollarks exposing the billionaire class, their secret deals, and the globalist plot to dominate your life.
And that kind of scares me, especially in light of President Chi and his visit with Biden.
And, you know, considering Biden has never called out China on unfair trade practices, intellectual property theft, never called them out on COVID, never called them out on the spy balloon, never calls them out on their hostile maneuvers against our fighter jets in international airspace or hostile maneuvers in international uh waterways against our Navy.
Uh, could it be that Joe Biden is compromised by China?
Makes you wonder.
Uh, here's Biden uh talking about the upcoming meeting with President Chi.
We're not trying to decouple from China.
Listen.
What how would you define success with your meeting with President Xi?
You get back on a normal course of corresponding, being able to pick up a phone and talk to one another crisis, being able to make sure our military still have contact with one another.
We can't take as I told you, we're not trying to decouple from China.
But we're what we're trying to do is change the relationship for the better.
From my perspective, if in fact the Chinese people who are in trouble right now economically, if the average homeowner or the homeowner, if the average citizen in China was able to have a decent paying job, that benefits them and it benefits all of us.
But I'm not going to continue to sustain the support for positions where if we want to invest in China, we have to turn over all our trade secrets.
All right.
He works with Peter Schweitzer at the Government Accountability Institute.
They do phenomenal work.
You might remember all of this information regarding the Biden uh family syndicate came from Peter's book, P uh Secret Empires.
Uh, and uh his new book, by the way, uh Control Agarch's exposing the billionaire class is destined to be a bestseller.
How are you, sir?
Sean, it's great to be with you.
You know, uh Peter Schweitzer and I, we follow the money.
We followed it to James Comey and found the money uh he was getting from defense and intelligence contractors through the revolving door.
We followed it to the Bidens, and uh now we followed it all the way to the top to the globalist elites.
Uh, I call them the control agarch, and what we've found is really shocking stuff.
Um first time ever, we've crunched the numbers and found that men like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, uh, all of whom love China, by the way, they don't want to decouple from China.
They want to make the U.S. more like China in a lot of ways.
You saw that in the pandemic.
You see it with the censorship and the uh deplatforming of conservatives.
We found that they each have added tens of billions of dollars to their personal net worth since the pandemic began.
Um, that may not surprise the savvy listeners of your show, but what really blew me away was how they're making their money.
And they're doing it by constructing tyrannical systems like the censorship and taking the Hunter Biden laptop story off of Facebook, and each of these systems that they're building are beginning to control every aspect of our lives.
Well, it's happening.
Go into what the premise of this book is, for example.
Your investigation now took more than two years, uh, and and it is you know, unbelievable the amount of footnotes, the amount of work you did on this.
Uh you picked three specific investigations, the issue of COVID, the issue of censorship, the issue of artificial intelligence, which was part of the deal that Biden made this week with President Qi, which I don't like, and that is that he makes this big deal saying, Oh, well, we both agree that we'll never use artificial intelligence when it comes to any nuclear technology.
Why would we ever trust the communist Chinese ever again?
That's so true, Sean.
And you hear this all the time that COVID is over, it's in the past.
No, COVID was a blueprint for the future.
It showed that the pandemic was profitable, the lockdowns were lucrative, And the control that this offered equaled a lot of cash for these control agarch.
So, yeah, the systems you mentioned, energy.
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat.
You go to your thermostat, you try to turn it down, but it's locked.
You can't control the temperature in your own home.
Now, this set may sound like some conspiracy theory.
It's not.
It's already happening.
And Jeff Bezos and Amazon and Google, they're making these so-called smart thermostats, and people in Colorado and in Texas and even in Gavin Newsom's uh Communist Republic of California have experienced not being able to set the temperatures in their own homes.
Uh regarding the food systems, everybody knows that Bill Gates is buying up a lot of farmland, but most people don't know is how or why Gates, this uh former software software salesman is doing it and why you know why he's doing it is he's cornering the food supply.
He's pushing for regulations like banning cattle under the guise of saving the planet.
Uh when AOC goes out and says that cow flatulence is gonna end the world, she didn't just dream this up.
It comes from a white paper from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation or the World Economic Forum in Davos.
And uh, you know, we went through mountains of financial filings and IRS nine nineties to really find out what the food agenda is here.
That's why Bill Gates is investing in these fake meat companies.
He thinks that if you eat a fake lab grown hamburger, you're gonna save the planet.
Actually, it just enriches him.
And then on the information front, Sean, uh everybody's you know, we're all very familiar, some more uh you know, some more than others, uh, about how the censorship of the big tech companies is affecting our lives, in fact affecting how we can share information with each other.
This is just the beginning.
These control guards are harvesting your data, they're ra ratcheting up AI, and they're going to use it to eliminate as many of your jobs as possible.
Some estimates up to 40% of the jobs just gone.
It's happening right now.
It's no coincidence that Bill Gates backed open AI, that's the chat GPT maker, is funding studies on universal basic income.
So, I mean, it's it's pretty frightening stuff.
It's happening right now.
Uh it's not too late, but we need to be armed with the facts.
Well, we do need to be armed with the facts.
Uh the fact that the Biden family syndicate, you know, and Peter pointed this out in Secret Empires, and the Biden family did what, one billion that later became one point five billion with the Bank of China.
We now have the WhatsApp message thanks to Congressman James Comer of the Ho House Oversight Committee.
I'm sitting here with my father.
He's talking to a top C E F C that's the China Energy Conglomerate state run.
Uh we're wondering why you didn't keep your commitments and between everybody he knows and my ability to hold the grudge, you're gonna regret not not not following through on what you promised, and lo and behold, five days later, five million dollars ends up in one of their show corporations identified by James Comer.
Can you explain that?
Yeah, that's right, Sean.
I mean, your your listeners know very well how the Biden family have sold out this country to communist China, but they haven't done it alone.
And in a lot of ways, you look at Joe Biden and you think he's not really uh in control of a lot of his own faculties.
There's gotta be some other people pulling the strings.
And the big tech guys, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, I mean, Zuckerberg keeps a copy of Xi Jinping's writings on his desk.
I mean, shockingly and bizarrely, Mark Zuckerberg asked uh she to give his child choose a name in Chinese for Zuckerberg's first born child.
Bill Gates likewise, he's been for decades working hand in glove with the C C P helping them to censor their own uh opposition within China on platforms like uh he's got the you know Skype and he has messaging platforms through Microsoft.
He helps uh China identify its dissident jur journalists.
And so what what all this really amounts to, and you really saw it last night or the other night uh in California with the standing ovation.
People like Larry Fink from BlackRock, they don't want to decouple from China, obviously.
They like China, they like the Chinese system that the efficiency, you know, they call it efficiency during the pandemic.
Uh Bill Gates and uh even Tony Fauci praised the efficiency of China.
They want to be able to use That efficiency on us.
Well, I I think that's a hundred percent true, but they have a history of never playing fair.
I d I don't think Joe has the stomach or the willingness to ever confront our number one geopolitical foe that has now been pushed into the arms of Vladimir Putin and the mullahs in Iran, which I call the new axis of evil.
Am I wrong on that?
Not at all.
Not at all, Sean.
And George Soros is a big character in this book.
He has said that China is essential for building the new world order.
Uh George Soros, of course, is funding these anti-American and pro Hamas groups that are destroying the country.
Um Have you been able to trace that money directly back to him?
Well, his open society network is funding a lot of these groups, yes.
And that's is that all his money?
The open society institutes?
Yes.
That's that's George Soros' money.
And what's even more shocking, actually, is that George Soros, we were wondering if he was even going to be around by the time the book came out.
So we uh tracked down each of his children, and Alexander Soros has just been put in charge.
He's the heir to the dark money fortune.
He's even more radical than his father.
Let me ask you about this.
You talk in the book a lot about uh, for example, uh the likes of Bill Gates, or you talk about uh other people, uh Silicon Valley and the great reception, for example, we saw from them.
You talk I I assume that that this is a big part of why you call it uh control agars, and I don't think you know, obviously you've coined the term in the in that sense.
What are they doing that the the American people need to know the most?
Well, right now, I I the digital ID is a very uh important issue that people need to know more about.
I mean, just last week, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the United Nations, the Rockefeller Foundation, they hosted an event called 50 in 50, where they're saying that they're gonna roll out digital ID regimes in 50 countries within five years.
That's just right around the corner.
And you see huge push from uh companies like BlackRock and Larry Fink to get behind digital ID.
And once they can link all of your data up to a centralized database and tie it to a digital ID, this will be like your gun purchases or you know, the like anything that you buy, they are using kind of the AI to create profiles on you and find out how just how opposed to the Biden regime you might be.
Uh this is exactly what China has.
It's a social credit score system, it's a de facto social credit score system.
They're very uh on board with that system.
BlackRock's on board with it, Microsoft and Bill Gates are on board with it.
And so you see, uh like I said, they're not trying to decouple from China.
They're borrowing their pages from the Chinese Communist Party playbook, and they're trying to implement them right here in the USA.
Well, we appreciate it.
I hope people pay attention to this book.
It's called Control Agarch's exposing the billionaire class, their secret deals, and the globalist plot to dominate your life.
It's on Amazon.com.
We put a link on Hannity.com, now in bookstores all around the country.

Anyway, go to their website today.
It's MantisX.com.
That's M-A-N-T-I-S.com.
All right, so last night we had the Fox Nation Awards.
Apparently, there's some humorless people in the media mad that I call uh Adam Schiff, a piece of shif.
And Linda, do I not say this every single solitary day?
Is this a surprise to people?
Well, I mean, we are grading on a curve here.
These are liberals.
Okay.
How many years have I done jokes about Bill Clinton?
And said, I call my buddy Sean Hannity and Sean Hannity's.
I wanted to tell him there's a lot of hot chicks in that audience of his.
Well, I have them all memorized.
So I think that's a really good clue.
That's a really good clue.
Yeah, it's written up as a Sean Hannity does profane set.
Oh, shut up.
Really?
Who wrote that?
Media.
Oh, well, big little I know.
Big liberal columnist over there.
I mean, it's just so stupid on top of everything else, but I mean, whatever.
Yeah, why why why not highlight that instead of you know the good things that are happening there, like wearing robots?
On the stage, like seven minutes.
That's it.
And I just tried to make it fun and light and a little bit serious at the end because you know, I'm very proud of what Fox puts on.
They put on a great show.
And but I I do my little, you know, shtick ahead of time.
I do it almost every night before the TV show when we have a studio audience show.
You've been in the audience, you've been there with your your soon-to-be husband.
And and that's you know, it's for me, it's just a lot of fun.
Everybody seems to laugh.
Everybody get knows it's a joke.
Yeah, but liberals can't take a joke, you know that.
There's nothing fun.
Listen, if you were a liberal, what do you got going on?
You gotta lie all the time, then you gotta remember your lies.
It's it's a lot of hard work.
They're very tired.
That's a lot of hard work.
You know, I mean, if you had to lie that often, forget about it.
So we did this for the first time in Nashville, Tennessee last night.
And that's why my throat has been sore all day again.
Um so anyway, so we do it in Nashville, Tennessee, and we do it at the grand old Opry Stage.
How cool is that?
The grand old Opry Theater.
It must have been amazing.
Okay.
Now, I actually got to be the host of the Grand Old Opry show once that airs on, you know, WSM, and it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.
I still have they gave me a gift of WSM uh microphones that are bookends, and and I have them to this day.
I'm I'm really proud of that.
Not proud, but I'm very glad I have it, and it's something I really like.
Uh but anyway, so if you don't know the history of the grand old Opry, uh, you know, it was built after the Ryman Auditorium.
They actually took a circle of the flooring from the Ryman, and they put it right there center stage where all the top artists throughout the history of country music had had an opportunity to sing on that stage.
If you are in country music, that is one of the highlights of your career.
Um, that is a moment that you'll never forget.
That is something that you dream about ever since you dream about being a country music star.
And to get that opportunity is like, you know, it's a it's a rite of passage.
You would agree with that, right?
Oh my god, yeah.
Nashville in general is just insane.
Well, it's great.
If you love music, you're gonna love Nashville.
Okay.
That's why they call it Music City.
So while I'm up there, again, it's more of a comedy set.
I'm not doing a big speech on politics, although I did get in a few good shots at Joe and Kamala, didn't I?
Um I mean, listen, it's not hard, you know.
Yeah, no, you just mentioned their name and you win.
Uh, you know, Joe Biden, bad news, he's still your president.
More bad news.
Uh Kamala's still your vice president.
The good news is November 24 is coming.
Um, so anyway, saw him there, and I threw I ran this by you and everybody on the radio team yesterday.
I said, you know, I'm thinking of doing something a little different.
I'm thinking of adding this little bit because just because of of where I am, and I'm on that stage, and I'm I'm in that circle where all these amazing artists, you know, sang from.
And I'm like, what if I could tell everybody the truth, which is that if I could come back in a new life, if I got to pick what I could be, I'd love to be, you know, like a country music star or a Christian contemporary music star.
I'd like to, I'd like to be a great singer.
I'm not a great singer.
So when I ran it by you, you really love the idea.
Not everybody, not everybody was as enthusiastic as you are.
And I said, for example, I could start out with, well, you know, if I'm a sympathetic guy, I could start with Garth Garth Brooks stood in that circle and said, thinking back on the memory of the dance we shared beneath the stars above.
For a moment, all the world was right.
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye?
And that's the dance, which is a that's a great tune.
You gotta admit that's a great tune.
Oh memory of the dance we share.
Need the stars of the moment all the world was a right.
How could I have known?
It's you did say goodbye.
And that is a great tune.
It really is.
And but Garth, I'm sure at some point in his career, I'm guessing I'm pretty confident he sang the dance right from the spot that I was standing on.
So, with that said, I I did that.
And I said, one of the greatest times I ever had in my life is when I used to get on stage with Charlie Daniels, God rest his soul.
I love that man.
And he'd let me sing the devil went down to Georgia.
And I I didn't really sing it.
I don't I didn't think the audience would believe that I that I would be able to sing it.
So I did like the first verse of it, and and this is how it went.
The devil went down to Georgia.
He was looking for a soulless deal.
He was in a bag because he was way behind and he was willing to make a deal.
But he came across this young man sewing on the fiddle and playing it hot.
And the devil jumped up on a hiccup and said, Boy, let me tell you what.
I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
Now you've played pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the devil his due.
I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul, because I think I'm better than you.
The boss said, My name's Johnny, and it might be a sin, but I'll take your bet you're gonna regret, because I'm the best as ever been.
Johnny Hero's help you're full and play your city.
The devil music.
And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul.
And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
So I did that, and then I I stopped there, and then I said, and this is how I did it.
Uh then this is how I ended it with, you know, the devil bowed his head because he knew he'd been beaten.
He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Uh Johnny said, devil, come on back if you ever want to try again.
I done told you want you liberal SOB.
I'm the best there's ever been.
And by the way, the crowd loved it.
They went nuts.
Now, is that so profound, profane as they say?
You know, well, I mean, they probably think country music as a rule is profane.
Yeah, they didn't they didn't particularly like Jason Aldean's song Small Town.
Exactly.
I mean, these people there are so pathetically sensitive.
Here's the beautiful thing, since you're so, you know, all you liberals love freedom so much, just turn a dang dial.
Turn it off.
You have the freedom to move your fingers and listen to something else.
So go do it.
Nobody was forced to stay through me doing my little seven-minute bit last night.
They didn't have to get to our couple of calls this Friday.
We got Nina is in the free state of Florida.
Nina, how are you?
Glad you called.
Thanks for being with us.
Thank you, Mr. Hannity, for having me on.
Um, Jewish American as a Jewish American, um, and also a single mom of a 15-year-old daughter.
It's extremely terrifying seeing what's happening in America.
Um, it's even more terrifying that Joe Biden is not doing anything to de-escalate the rioters and to protect the Jews in America, which you know, these pro-Palestinian protesters, as they say, tearing down the American flag and stomping on it.
I mean, I would consider that an act of war, uh treason in America.
Why do you think that Joe Biden has well publicly he has said a lot of the right things?
Why do you think now he's turning his his position around and pushing for pause after pause after pause?
Why do you think he's doing that?
In the same way the left is continuing to discuss Islamic phobia instead of holding these people accountable.
He wants me to.
No, that was that was Kamala Harris that announced that initiative in the middle of the the the greatest moment of anti-Semitism since World War II around the world.
So that was insane.
Why do you think, though, that Joe is now pushing a pause?
There is a reason for it.
Well, I would say because he wants to keep the Iranian uh close by and not make them upset.
Because of that's not the it's not the right answer, but it's a good answer.
He is afraid of his radical base and the hard left in this country and the position that they have staked out that is not willing to condemn terrorism on the world stage.
That is who he is now listening to.
That is why he is virtually silent.
That is why he is pressuring Israel to hit the pause button, and that's what Joe's doing.
Well, can I ask, I guess, a question on would it be considered a form of treason to send aid to send currently active right now money to Iran when it's a time of war, when our ally, Israel, is being attacked from every side, and let's not forget that during this time, close to 60 military bases overseas have been attacked by the Iranians.
So why are we funding our enemies?
Is that well, by the way, Americans have been attacked 50 times in the last month that I know of that we know of?
Yeah.
So the answer is there is no rational reason why, except that Joe Biden is a classic appeaser.
He he's what he's like Neville Chamberlain in our time.
And somehow, him, Obama, others, they create a false moral equivalency between Hamas, Gaza, the Palestinian people, and Israel.
Somehow they're not recognizing who the terrorists are, even though Hamas's charter calls for the the destruction of Israel, and they don't know who the victims are.
The victims are all the Israelis that have been murdered, all the Americans murdered, all of the Israelis that have been taken hostage.
And he's now afraid because his radical base is not willing to call out terrorism for what it is.
That's what's happening.
Now, if this is not a moment where the world should have such, you know, uh this should be a ninety-nine to one issue where everybody agrees that the terrorists are Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic jihad, uh, the Houthi rebels, and that they're all funded by the number one state sponsor of terrorism, and that is Iran.
But not in the Biden, not in the Biden years.
That's not gonna happen.
So when we when we vote, well, I didn't vote for him, but when the American people vote to put a president into office, his number one role is to protect the American people of all faiths.
We already had had Jewish blood spilled on American soil since the attack because Hamas declared for all Jews around the world to die.
And so there's been a rabbi who was slain in her house and dragged to the streets.
There's nothing.
Where are the National Guards being deployed?
The same way when George Floyd census week, you know, got killed.
Where are we?
Where were they in the summer of 2020 in Portland?
Where were they in Seattle?
Where were they in New York?
Where were they, you know?
Why didn't they call up the guard on January 6th?
We can't have our institutions, you know, attack like this.
But you know what?
Kamala Harris was too busy, you know, tweeting out bail funds for people after the burning down of a police precinct in Minneapolis.
But they just the DNC just got raided and still no National Guards, graffiti on the White House.
Like there's just nothing that's being done to to make us Americans, whether you're Jewish or not, to feel safe.
So how many screams from the mountaintop can We do, it just feels helpless and hopeless.
Like nothing is going to be done.
No one's being held accountable accountable, including our president.
I I think you're gonna have to put hope in the Prime Minister of Israel, Prime Minister Netanyahu, who I believe will do what is necessary to preserve the state of Israel because their very existence is now in jeopardy.
And as he said in one of his speeches, and he's repeated it, uh, never again is now.
Anyway, appreciate the call, Nina.
