Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
We're coming to your city.
For Biden, I would, I would stay hidden.
And I'll tell you why.
He doesn't inspire confidence.
Beer brewed here.
It is used to make the brew beard.
It's fine.
Oh, Earth Riders.
Thanks for the Great Lakes.
I wonder why.
Who in their mind would want to run when you have someone of such esteem as our incumbent president of the United States?
The clock is ticking.
T minus 279 days left till the presidential election.
Here we are coming to your city.
Gonna play our guitars and sing you a country song.
From coast to coast.
From border to border.
From sea to shining sea.
Sean Kennedy is on.
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All right, news, roundup, information overload.
Our toll three number that remains the same.
It's 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Well, now that I'm a full-time resident in the free state of Florida, I mean, I've completely left New York and am never going back.
And however, had I stayed in the district I was in on February 13th as a very important runoff.
This is for the George Santos seat.
How ironic, Linda, that it was me.
The guy that was my congressman was this guy Santos.
I mean, could I get very bizarre, right?
I knew nothing about him ahead of time.
But anyway, I can't vote in the district anymore.
Obviously, I even sent a letter to the county saying I can't vote.
I've re-registered down in Florida, et cetera, et cetera, as per legal advice of my lawyers.
But anyway, this is an important seat, right?
Republicans have a two-vote majority right now.
They need to keep this seat.
It's that important.
And they have a guy that's pretty well known by the name of Tom Swazi.
He says he's 100% supportive of Joe Biden's position, 100%.
However, then yesterday or the day before, he said, well, I'm not going to seek Joe Biden's endorsement.
This is a local race.
I'm like, yeah, of course you don't want Joe Biden's endorsement because nobody in Long Island likes Joe Biden.
One of the things that's very interesting about New York politics is if you take New York City out of the equation, New York has turned in Long Island and Nassau and Suffolk County and upstate New York, it has turned pretty solidly red.
And frankly, if it wasn't for some districts in New York and the great showing of Bob Astorino in the gubernatorial race, I got to tell you something.
The Republicans wouldn't have won the majority.
That's how amazing it is.
Anyway, Mozzie Pillop is the candidate going up against this guy, Swazi.
She's got an incredible life story.
This vote, I'm not sure when early voting starts.
I'll ask her in a second.
And you heard about Congresswoman Omar and how she's Somalia first.
She responded to that by saying this.
Unfortunately, Ilan Omar and the squad members has been damaging Israel image and with a lot of wrong information and they have been very anti-Israel, to be honest, even anti-American, anti-Semitic.
It is just upsetting to sit down and to hear them every single day in the last few years.
When I go to Congress, they're going to see a black woman as a mother, as an immigrant, as a former IDF soldier, as a person who grew up in Israel, to tell them the truth about Israel and maybe educate them a little bit about Israel.
And maybe I will be the example of how you're supposed to appreciate this beautiful country, the United States of America.
Now, Tom Swazi, she's going up against the Democrat, does have a lot of name recognition.
He's been pretty much a career politician.
Her life story is incredible.
Born in Ethiopia, evacuated to Israel as part of an Israeli-U.S.
mission, which provided sanctuary to people like Mozzie.
The experience gave her a passion to serve first with the IDF, the Israeli Defense Forces, as a paratrooper brigade.
Anyway, Mozzie, Pillop, thank you for joining us.
You have a lot of people that have been contacting me on your behalf, telling me I've got to have you on.
What a great candidate you are.
What a great life story you have.
You've been a Nassau County legislator for a long time, and you led the fight to cut property taxes by 200 million, which, by the way, it needed to happen.
Nassau County, the second highest property tax county in the country, and you've been successful in that position.
Where do you see this race?
You know, Long Island, I don't know.
It's become pretty unpredictable because the state has gone red.
However, it's a special election.
When does early voting start?
So, Sean, early voting starting February 3rd, this Saturday, and it's going to be for one week.
And then the special election, which is February 13.
And I'm very excited.
This is a very important race.
This is about our country.
This is about common sense government.
And this is about being the voice for the American people.
Right now, as you see, the extreme policies of President Biden and Thomas Waze when he was in Congress and majority and the left progressive members like the squad members, they are taking our country to the wrong direction.
Whether it's our border security, we have a serious issue at our borders.
And whether defunding the police movement, taking away the truth that our law enforcement needs to keep us safe, or it is whether it's our economy that's because of President Biden and Tom Swazi, we are paying the price and we are seeing the inflation right now and we are feeling it every single day when we go to do our shop, you know, to shop our grocery.
So this is really about saving our country.
Right now, the race is within the margin of error.
You are very close according to the Emerson PICS 11 survey.
This is a winnable race, but anytime you have a special election, it's going to be all about turnout.
I did notice that apparently a lot of Democratic, national Democratic money is flowing into the district.
How much money does Tom Swazi have on hand?
Clearly, they invested a lot of money and they keep spending a lot of money in the line.
The worst of it, like they're lying.
All wrong information about me.
They are saying that I'm cutting Social Security.
I'm defunding the police and I'm against abortion.
Absolutely lie.
Never cut Social Security as a county legislator and I'm not going to cut Social Security when I'm going to go to Congress.
I never defunded the police.
I supported the police.
I fully funded them.
And I increased even the number of the officers by 200 police officers.
That's something never been done before.
And absolutely, I made it so clear I'm not against abortion.
This is a personal decision.
Every woman has the right to make decisions.
But they are so worried about this race.
And they're willing to do everything to gain power, including lying.
So they keep lying, and I feel very sorry for the public.
And, you know, this is ours to win.
The issues are with us, whether it's our border security, whether it's our economy, or really supporting our law enforcement and bringing safety to our county and to our district.
In this race, I'm the only person who got endorsed by seven major police unions.
He wasn't endorsed by even one of them, and there is a reason for that.
He is well known as a person who wanted to defund the police, as a person who really supported the defund the police movement, as a person who has history of increasing taxes.
As a county executive, he increased taxes by 23%.
As a mayor of Blanco, he increased taxes by 29%.
And even in Congress, he 100% of the time supported Biden.
And now he's saying he would like to go back and fix Washington.
And nobody's believing this because he created the border crisis we are having right now.
He joined Biden when he was a majority, when they decided to open the border.
And now we are seeing things that we never saw in our lives.
Millions making their way from the border, unvaded immigrants.
And we don't know if they are terrorists or if they are criminals, and without any plan and place.
And this is not fair for the American people, and absolutely not fair for the migrants.
It looks like you're being outspent, according to sources in the New York Post, about 8 to 1.
Apparently, Swazi has splashed $8 million in ads, including Super PAC money.
And the GOP has only put $1 million into the race.
Why is the GOP not investing more in this race?
No, they are investing.
We are seeing more money is coming in our way, even from Washington.
And now we are seeing more of my TV ad on TV.
And, you know, most importantly, it's not just about the money.
The issues are with us.
We have strong ground forces, people who are working very hard, very hard.
They understand this is not about me or Swazi.
It's really about saving our country.
It's about bringing communist government.
So we will win this election because the issues are with us.
And people want fresh voice, new voice, not a career politician who acts like, talks like moderate.
But in the real time, he voted 100% of the time with Biden and over 90% of the time with the squad members.
How he can be moderate if we are voting with squad members, anti-American, anti-Semitic, the people who are really spreading hate and dividing our nation.
What did you think of Congresswoman Omar's comment about Somalia first?
I just don't get this.
I mean, she forgot what life looked like in Africa.
I mean, Somalia is next to Ethiopia.
We all know which kind of right she had as a woman, as a person there.
She knows if that's the problem in our country.
We start to take this country for granted.
This country is the best country in the world.
And unfortunately a person like her, a congresswoman like her, instead of appreciates this country, the opportunities she got in this country, she is now all of a sudden supporting and appreciating Somalia.
This is just very sad, and you are not going to, we are not going to tolerate this kind of behavior, to be honest.
You are American first.
You are benefiting as American rights here, as a person, as a person of color, as a woman.
You should appreciate and protect America first.
Got to take a quick break.
We'll come back more with Mozzie Pillop.
She's running for the 10th congressional district to replace George Santos.
More on her campaign, more on this race, more on why it's so important when we come back.
We continue more with Mozzie Pillop is with us, and she is running for Congress, my old district, when I lived in New York.
And this race coming up, early voting starts on the 3rd of February for a week, and then February 13th, Election Day.
Certainly an election to pay attention to, considering the very small majority Republicans have in the U.S. Congress.
Really important election.
We'll pay close attention to it, but we continue now with Nazi Pillop is with us.
I think the fact that this race is so close is very meaningful.
However, it's going to take a ground game to get people out for a special election.
Do you feel that your operation is up to par to compete with the eight-to-one spending advantage that as of now, Swazi has had over you?
I will tell you this.
You know what?
For somebody who the entire life was a career politician, he was a county executive as a mayor at the Congress.
To be tied with me, it means he is losing it.
As I said, the people are with us.
I have every rally between 300 to 1,000 people coming to support me.
The people are with me.
And that's really what matters.
It's not the name ID he has.
And with that name ID, he has a lot of things that people remember.
As a mayor of Glen Cove, he was the first one who wanted to turn Nassau County to Sanctuary County.
He has a history of funding sanctuary cities and Congress.
And he was the one, you know, that he kicked ice from Nassau County.
And here I go, I'm the opposite side of the opposite of Tom Swazi.
I want law enforcement.
I want safety.
I want to secure our borders.
I want to improve our economy.
Tom Swazi promised when he was in Congress he will bring sole deductions for New Yorkers.
He failed.
I mean, the fact that he says and supports Biden 100% of the time, but doesn't want Biden's endorsement, to me, that speaks volumes.
To me, that's, you know, for him to just say this is a local race.
No, it's not.
You're going to be a United States congressman, or in your case, a congresswoman.
And what Joe Biden stands for absolutely matters.
And he's supporting him, but he wants to hide his support about Biden.
He doesn't want to use Biden because Biden's so widely unpopular.
I would imagine if he can get enough support with ads and finances that that would be the campaign I'd run.
But what do I know?
I'm just a talk show host.
Listen, he knows why he doesn't want to be endorsed by Biden right now because Biden's doing very bad in our district.
People are sick and tired of everything that Biden promoted in the last three years.
And listen, the end of the day, it's now about saving our country.
And we cannot afford sending Tom Swazi back to Congress.
It's going to be like sending his Joe Biden identical swim to Washington, D.C.
He is just not fair towards the American people.
People are sick and tired of old politics.
You know, people just so good by talking, all the empty promises.
They are sick and tired.
They want a mother, a fighter, a mother who understands what it means to come to this country and as a legal immigrant and living the American dream, a mother who understands how important to create a safe community, a safe county.
And this is the person who they would like to see in Congress.
And I'm very excited for the opportunity.
Well, it's certainly going to be a close race by every indication we have.
That means it's going to be all about turnout.
How do people get in touch with you if they're interested in your campaign?
Absolutely.
They can go to Mozzie4ny.com.
Mozzie.
Okay.
For MY.com.
All right.
Mozzie, pull up.
Thank you.
We're going to watch this race closely.
We appreciate your time and wish you the best of luck in this.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for having me, John.
800-941, Sean, our number, if you want to be a part of the program.
25 to the top of the hour.
We have some of the other news of the day we haven't gotten to.
And your call's coming up.
800-941.
Sean, every one of you listening to my voice right now, if you don't have a personal safety and security plan, a protection plan for you and your family or you and your employees, if you're a business owner, you've got to have one.
You know, all my adult years, I've had a pistol carry permit.
I believe in the Second Amendment.
That has never changed.
However, I love the technology that is Burner, B-Y-R-N-A, a less lethal, not only pistol, they have their mission for rifle, and they have cartridge shells that you can put in your own shotgun that are not lethal, but they do stop perpetrators dead in their tracks, and they'll incapacitate them for up to 20 minutes.
And if you don't believe me, just go to their website, burner, byrna.com slash Hannity, see it for yourself.
Now, by the way, burners are legal in all 50 states.
There's no background check required.
And Burner can ship their less lethal pistols, rifles directly to your door.
They have a wide variety of colors to choose from, including pink and orange and yellow.
But I like the old-fashioned one myself.
Anyway, but you got to rethink your strategies.
If you find yourself in a situation where non-lethal force works, wow, and you have the option, why not use that option?
Police departments now are beginning to adopt burner technology around the country.
And frankly, every police department should have it.
But you as a homeowner, protect yourself, protect your family, have a plan.
One part of that plan for me and my personal security is the non-lethal option that Burner offers.
Go to their website.
Look out their videos.
They're amazing.
BYRNA.com slash Hannity.
If you go there now, you'll get 10% off on your purchase.
That's byrna.com slash Hannity.
And this could save your life, your family's lives, and your business and your employees' lives as well.
It's that important.
Looks like our old friend Joy Reed, well, had a hot mic moment over at MSDNC, accusing Joe Biden of starting another blanking war.
Listen.
Over the weekend, President Biden said he's ready to take action if Congress is serious about solving the border issue.
If that bill were the law today, I'd shut down the border right now and fix it quickly.
And Congress needs to get it done.
Starting another war.
Still trying to kill the deal.
Whoops, starting another eping war.
Whoopsie daisy.
I'm sure that was an accident, Linda, right?
I'm sure it wasn't on purpose.
Everything with Joy is an accident.
Everything is always forgiven for all.
And that's what I'm forgiven for all.
It's a piss.
Well, what have I always said?
Some people say, Hannity, why don't you support the boycott?
I'm like, I don't support boycotts.
Why don't you call for the firing of?
I don't ask for people to be fired.
I don't ask for people to be boycotted.
I don't support cancel culture.
I just don't.
You know what cancel culture is?
We have cancel culture.
Don't watch her show and you'll cancel her show.
It's really that simple.
By the way, the View co-hosts are panicked over a possible third party spoiler for Biden.
There's no room.
They're saying there's no room at all.
Sonny Houston is saying she's very concerned about the spoiler and Jill Stein's run.
I learned today that when Jill Stein ran, it was Trump versus Hillary.
There were three states, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, where Stein's vote total exceeded Trump's margin of victory.
Whoopsie-daisy.
And by the way, for those worried about Robert F. Kennedy Jr., I'm not worried about him.
By the way, I liked him when I met him.
Nice guy, but he's not a conservative.
He's conservative on three issues: the border, men and women's sports.
And for a lot of people, they just love his opinions on vaccinations.
That's it.
You know, I'm not saying those issues are insignificant, but this is a hardcore left-wing radical Democrat that supported Biden, Obama, and every other left-wing Democratic president we've ever had.
By the way, it was interesting to watch the media backtrack.
You heard about Snopes, right?
Their gaffe over the weekend put a spotlight on the fact-checking of this left-leaning slant.
Anyway, Snopes, you know, they always love to go after conservatives.
And anyway, they were trying to say that Joe Biden did not put the hard hat on backwards.
And then they had to admit that he did put it on backwards.
It wasn't that hard to figure out.
If you've ever worn a hard hat, you know which one is front and which one is back.
It's not that hard, boss.
I mean, it really isn't.
And quite frankly, he's got about you've never worn one, and I am 100% confident you'd get it right the first time.
Total BS.
I have worn one because I've been on construction sites.
When did I wear it right the first time?
Because I worked at a nightclub and we built it from the ground up back in the day.
So, you know, I was there with the plans and the architects and all the things.
And we figured it out.
It was in the West Village when I still did music and all that stuff.
And so I met with the architects up when I was like, how the hell you put this thing on?
I mean, you know, it's got the loop in the back and the front and all the things.
But my point is, you know, Joe is just so dumb that it's like one more dumb thing.
If it was the only thing he did, it wouldn't be a big deal.
Do you know what I'm saying?
It's just that it's all the time.
And I think that's the real problem.
This may be a coincidence, but just as the case against the Get Trump Fulton County DA Fannie Willis is heating up with Republican state legislators now launching multiple investigations that could very well result in her removal.
Apparently, Fulton County has now been targeted with a massive cyber attack and this ongoing cyber attack against Georgia's Fulton County, which includes parts of Atlanta, has brought some of the government systems to a standstill, halting access to court filings, tax processing, and other services.
The outage has not been resolved.
Interesting timing.
The lieutenant governor has now staffed a new committee to investigate Fannie Willis.
Well, it's about time.
It took you that long to figure out that Fannie Willis has an agenda.
She ran on it.
Just like in New York, we shouldn't have people that are DAs or attorney general that run against one person to go after one person or one company.
That is a scary abuse of power.
I got news for you, Boyd.
Very dangerous.
There's one person.
It's everybody.
There's everybody that's after Trump.
And to your point about RFK, you know, RFK is not a Republican, but I'm going to tell you what I've been saying to you for years, and I'm sure there's plenty of tape of me saying this.
I don't really believe in the two-party system.
I don't believe in the four-party system.
I believe in the us and them party.
And that's it.
There's us that are trying to do the right thing.
And then there's a bunch of other themes that are trying to do the wrong thing.
And that could be rhinos.
That could be Democrats.
That could be liberals.
That could be communists.
It could be right-wing lunatics.
It could be all sorts of things.
And then there's just us, people doing the right thing who know, you know, their Constitution, their Declaration, their Federalist Papers, believe in people's individual freedoms and, you know, endowed by our Creator, all the things, right?
That's just regular people.
That's the us.
And then there's just a ton of them's.
I don't even believe in any of this crap anymore, honestly.
Scary times, to say the least.
I don't want to get that depressed.
Anyway, I really don't.
But there's so much writing on this election in 279 days.
It's unreal.
All right, let's get to our phones.
Chris is in New York.
He's a trucker.
Chris, how are you?
Glad you called.
And thank you for being with us.
And thank you for what you do every day.
Without you guys, our store shelves would be pretty empty.
Thank you.
Hey, Sean, it's good to be with you today.
Hey, listen, you know, a lot of my truck driver friends and I have been talking, and we've been talking about this trucker convoy that's on its way down the Eagle Pass and stuff like that.
One question is, do you think it's a good idea?
And let me tell you where I stand.
If these guys have a good message and they want to go down there, they need to stop north of the border checkpoint and not go into Laredo and Eagle Pass.
And the reason why is it's already crowded enough down there.
It's a major hub.
And if you go in too far, we have to wait for you guys to come back up through the border patrol checkpoints.
You're slowing the regular trucker down.
We love their message if this is a true thing, but we need them to stay north of the border checkpoint so that they don't screw the rest of us up.
I've noticed that these trucker convoys have been very, very, it's been interesting to watch in places around the world, including Paris.
Where else has it taken place?
I think Brazil had one.
I don't really recall, but there have been a number of them.
And I'm not sure how real this is yet.
I've been reading a lot about it.
I don't know the people involved in it.
I don't know what their agenda may or may not be.
But if they feel that strongly about it and they want to take their rigs and take time away from their work and they feel that passionately about something, it's still the United States of America.
You're free to do it.
So I applaud people that stand up for their passions as long as they do it peacefully.
Yeah, I hope you don't want to be like them.
Good message.
Yeah, I hope so.
We'll find out.
Anyway, appreciate it, Chris.
God bless you.
Drive safe, my friend.
Ben in New Jersey.
What's up, Ben?
How you doing in Jersey?
I can't believe, but I appreciate you.
You do a great job.
Good for America.
Thank you.
How are you?
Appreciate it.
I'm good, my friend.
How are you?
Yeah, great, great show today.
I'm calling because obviously it's out.
The president's impaired.
People on the inside say things and everything.
I mean, we're in some serious stuff militarily.
And he's the commander in chief.
What if he can't make a decision and he has to make the decision and he's incapable of doing it?
It's a time he has to make the decision.
I think he's incapable of making it now.
I really don't think he's in charge.
I really think that he's controlled by the people around him.
And I believe it's way more than we know.
The sad, the humans part of this that's sad is there's not one person in this guy's life that sees what's going on and that takes it upon themselves to intervene for his general health.
This can't be good for his long-term health.
It just can't be.
You know, God only knows if he's on medications.
God only knows, who knows how bad this is in real life?
We don't know.
Isn't it elder abuse?
I think it's certainly to me, it seems like elder abuse.
I've used that phrase myself.
I think it's a shame that you would do this to anybody ever.
Well, another question is, you know, when Nixon was going through all his trials and tribulations, there was a lot of back-channel discussions between Democrats and Republicans within his administration to get him to resign, et cetera, et cetera.
Where are all the leaders, both militarily, CIA, and the political leaders, saying, hey?
Well, the cabinet has the right to invoke the 25th Amendment, but, you know, they all want their jobs.
They're all appointed by Joe Biden.
I don't think they're going to say a thing.
Now, you do have prominent Democratic voices that have been pretty outspoken, like David Axelrod and Van Jones and James Carville and Maureen Dowd.
And, you know, when those voices start to turn on Democratic liberal candidates, you know, you're in trouble.
But, you know, so far, you know, things just keep rolling along the way, I guess, they're planned.
You know, look, I'll be convinced that Joe is the nominee for the Democrats after their convention.
He gets through the convention and they don't make an attempt to remove him.
If his health can hold up long enough, then he'll be their candidate in November, which I would prefer.
I mean, I don't know.
Everybody seems to think that there's some plan to get Michelle Obama involved.
I don't really see it, but it's possible.
How do you bypass Kamala Harris?
That's a big question, Mark.
I don't think that's going to happen so easily.
And where does she stay on the ticket, if in fact that happens?
I just don't know.
I don't think Gavin Newsom is in for it this time himself, although he certainly clearly has his eyes on the Oval Office post his governorship.
But his plans are so radical.
I mean, I don't think the country's going to buy it.
Anyway, appreciate the call.
Thanks, Ben.
Let's go to Pennsylvania.
Alan, how are you?
Glad you called.
Not too bad, my friend.
Excuse my question, which I'm sure that you've been asked many times.
I just wasn't around to hear an answer.
My question to you is, through your eyes, what does the world think of the United States when it comes to our overall leadership in the world?
You want the long answer or the short one?
Short one, buddy.
Weak.
They see nothing but Joe Biden's weakness.
We have an appeaser-in-chief.
We don't have a commander-in-chief.
That's the short answer.
Very well said.
And they're empowered and emboldened to do whatever they want, and they're doing it.
All right, Alan, we're counting on Pennsylvania.
You've got to carry it through in November.
Thank you.
Let's say hi to John in Arizona.
John, how are you?
Glad you called.
I'm good, John.
I'm sorry.
I'm good.
How are you?
Good.
What's going on?
I just wanted to bring, you know, the border.
I spend a lot of time in the mountains.
It's kind of a hobby watching the traffickers move their loads through the mountains all over the southern part of Arizona.
I mean, it's like you make it sound like it's bird watching.
I'm watching cartel watching.
I watch the traffickers traffic, you know, all through the mountains and hills around my home.
Great.
For 30 years I've been doing this and in the last three years, it basically I've got routes, you know, probably 50 different routes, you know, with 500 miles of border that I, you know, hike in and glass and spend time in ground blinds watching them do their thing.
And it's every day and it's incredible.
And the DEA choppers and the Homeland Security choppers are watching them and they do nothing.
It's unbelievable.
They do absolutely nothing.
They have free reign.
And by the way, they're carrying loads of fentanyl, opioids to kill our kids.
And we're allowing it to happen.
They're also trafficking, human trafficking, sex slavery.
It's all real.
I've talked to enough people that have worked in these fields for decades, and it is frightening that we're allowing this to continue.
It wasn't happening under Donald Trump, I'll tell you that.
All right, I got a break.
John, thank you.
Appreciate the call, my friend.
All right, that's going to wrap things up for today.
Hannity tonight, 9 Eastern on the Fox News channel.
