Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right, Leonard Skinner's simple man, that can only mean one thing on this radio program, and that is all things self uh proclaimed simple man.
That means all things Bill O'Reilly, all things O'Reilly at BillO'Reilly.com.
Um we have been talking a lot about the unmitigated disaster, which was the cross examination of Stormy Daniels yesterday and and the just the the tawdry, salacious immaterial, irrelevant testimony that she gave all day yesterday.
I guess she's back on the stand tomorrow.
Uh and how this to me is a very scary time in our country.
This is what we have been discussing at length about the weaponization of our justice system and how it's been politicized, and you're dealing with an eight-year-old case.
Uh you're dealing with a case where the judge is a Biden donor, where a family member uh could very well stand to benefit uh career-wise and financially from the case, a misdemeanor whose statute of limitations have passed, and of course, some convoluted application of federal election law under which they have no jurisdiction.
On top of that, a gag order that allows anybody that is gonna testify for the prosecution, they can go out and they can ask for gifts on social media as they analyze the case on cable TV in interview after interview on social media.
I mean, th these are just repulsive times.
The idea, I think the worst thing that came out yesterday is not the fact that Stormy Daniels admits she hates Donald Trump, that she wants Donald Trump in jail.
I think the worst part is she admits to being coached by the prosecution.
And the is that is that how our our legal system now works, that people that are gonna be witnesses for the prosecution get coached on on what they should say and and how they should act and what they should do.
Does that sound like equal justice under the law and equal application uh of our laws in this country?
Well, Bill O'Reilly, simple man, actually put out on Bill O'Reilly.com he used the word revolting to describe what happened yesterday, and I noticed that, and I I can't think of a better adjective, sir.
How are you?
You know, I'm a wordsmith.
Um but Oh my gosh.
Do you have to start you're starting in already?
Go ahead.
All of this helps Trump.
It all helps.
I agree.
Let me just walk you through it.
So the first essential question, and I don't think the Trump lawyers are doing a good job, by the way.
So the first essential question I would have asked Stormy Daniels is why do you want money?
Um for this alleged um meeting.
Why do you want money for it?
Okay.
Isn't that the first question?
She wants more.
That's what that's one of the first questions.
I'm I'm I'm hearing you out.
I'm giving you space, Mr. O'Reilly.
You can take the ball.
Yeah, that's where it all goes to.
So she's sworn in.
I'm a lawyer, I go up and I go.
Well, um, you know, just before the president presidential election 2016, you were demanding money for a social occasion.
I would use that word social occasion.
Okay.
Why?
You know what the worst part of this bill is?
All of the salacious details that this this judge, this Biden donor judge allowed yesterday.
None of it was material to the case.
None of it is relevant to the law.
Because the appeal is a lock.
The appeal's a lock.
Here's the problem with the appeal, Bill.
The appeal is gonna happen after the election.
I know.
And for the and from if he gets convicted, which I think he will because it's New York, I believe that every other word is gonna be, you know, convict Donald Trump.
Could you know, ex uh con Donald Trump, he'd convict Donald Trump, convict Donald Trump.
That's all you're gonna hear.
I don't think so.
Now I think he's gonna get acquitted.
Um because I'm putting off on the jury.
You really wait, wait, wait, you think he's gonna get acquitted with a New York jury.
You really believe that at best, he might get a hung jury.
At best.
Okay.
So that means he's acquitted.
Not really.
They could retry, but they don't have to.
And they probably won't.
So anyway, uh, just stay with me, Hannity.
I'm in the jury, okay?
I hate Trump.
And I'm in the jury.
And I'm listening to this woman rail on and on and on about things that have nothing to do with the alleged crime of election fraud.
That's what it is.
That's what comes down to.
That's what Bragg is.
Well, well, hang on one second.
They claim that, but we don't even really know what federal statute or by what standard used to take a misdemeanor to a felony.
We don't even know that yet.
You're doing two different tracks now.
You're you're analyzing from the macro point of view.
I'm on the jury.
I'm in the jury box.
That's where I want to go here.
So I'm in the jury box, and I hate Trump.
But I'm a fair human being.
And I'm listening to this testimony from this woman who's obviously unhinged and has a motivation to get money.
That's what she wants.
Money.
And everybody knows that.
There's no two sides to the story.
So that's what the Trump lawyer should be saying.
Hey, this isn't about election fraud.
It's not about anything other than a political prosecution by people who hate Donald Trump, and this woman is part of it.
And in addition to hating him, she wants money from him.
Now let me introduce another name, and I don't know, and I'm going to ask you if you know the name.
And I didn't know the name, so I'm going to mit that up top until I started my investigation of this last week.
Dino Sajudin.
Do you know it?
You know who he is?
I do not.
In November 2015, Dino Sejujin, a former doorman at the Trump Tower, tried to sell a story to the National Inquirer that Donald Trump fathered a child out of wedlock while married.
Oh, the doorman.
The doorman.
Dino Sejudin.
He did exactly the same thing that Stormy Daniels and the other one did.
Okay?
Tried to get money by saying salacious things about Donald Trump.
The National Inquirer gave him $30,000.
And I assume they were reimbursed by Michael Cohen.
Okay, I assume it.
I don't know for sure, but I I believe that's the case.
The story turned out to be completely bogus, completely untrue.
Because the woman that he named to the National Enquirer, they checked her out and she said, I haven't been pregnant.
But he got to keep the 30K.
Dino.
Okay.
Why isn't Dino on a stand?
Why didn't Brag bring Dino into the courtroom?
Why isn't the jury hearing Dino?
Dino got 30,000.
By the way, if Trump's attorneys were smart, they could call Dino into the courtroom.
Could.
And it blows up the whole thing.
Because anybody a week out from the presidential election, anybody having Dino and Stormy and the other one demanding money, you shut them up because they would affect the election.
Because the press isn't going to check out Dino.
They're just going to print the accusation.
And it's a week before the vote.
So of course you're going to do that.
Anyone would do it.
And to prove my point, the message of the day on Bill O'Reilly is about Grover Cleveland.
And the exact same thing happened to him in New York State in 1876.
Exactly.
Ended up getting elected president.
He won, but very narrowly.
And the woman showed up, and the woman said, which was true, that Cleveland fathered her child out of wedlock, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But what the jury, what the human beings who make this decision ultimately have to know, is that this is a total fraud, politically generated thing.
And that's how you get an acquittal.
That's how you get a hung jury.
Final point I want to make.
I use the word revolting, because that's what it is.
And it is so shameful that the state of New York would participate in this.
You don't think that people around a country are looking at the state of New York going, that's a sewer.
SEWER.
That's what that place is.
Even people who hate Trump.
And by extension, Trump will get out of this one.
And Georgia's falling apart.
And the Malago document thing isn't gonna happen.
And Washington's fallen apart also.
And the president will be granted limited immunity by the Supreme Court number one, and that second case that is not related to him will impact his case.
So from today, Trump has got all the legal stuff behind him.
He emerges a winner on this whole thing.
I am not convinced you're right in your conclusion that we that he will have an acquittal.
His best shot might be a hung jury.
We just might be.
Okay.
Let me let me bring this up for you because gets to the entire crux of the legal aspect.
Really, what we're talking about here, Bill, is a bookkeeping error.
That's all this is.
That would be a misdemeanor in New York based on the statute of New York State and New York City.
Uh the statute of limitations have long since passed.
If somebody gets involved in an NDA, a non-disclosure agreement, which by the way, probably the prosecutor's office has hundreds of them, if I had to venture a guess.
I would just most corporations have them.
Uh it's a it's a way of coming to a settlement, uh, and both sides then agree that they won't talk about the settlement post-settlement.
All right.
Um, it is not illegal to engage in an NDA to or to have an NDA.
We're talking about a bookkeeping mistake.
My question to Stormy Daniels would be uh Miss Daniels, I have a question for you.
You said you were you were pressured.
You felt pressure, you felt um you felt threatened uh to sign that January 30th, 2018 statement.
Um, and in that statement you said that the fact of the matter is is that each party to this alleged affair has denied its existence in 2006, 2011, 2016, 2017, and now again in 2018.
I'm not denying this affair because I was paid quote unquote hush money, as has been reported in overseas owned tabloids.
I'm denying this affair because it never happened.
That's what she says.
Um Miss Daniels, were you feeling pressure in 2006 when you made that public statement?
Uh were you feeling pressure?
Were you under pressure in 2011 or 2016 or 2017?
And when you finally did tell your story in a book, you were being paid to write that book.
Is that correct?
And when you sold your story to In Touch magazine or whatever the tabloid was, you were being paid for that.
Is that not correct?
So I think all of her testimony is completely impeached.
But the fact that the Biden donor judge allowed this to unfold in this courtroom is a national disgrace.
The fact that this case was even brought is a national disgrace.
The fact that the third highest ranking Justice Department official in the Biden Justice Department left that that prestigious position to run point on this prosecution or persecution of Donald Trump is is nothing but a total uh a travesty if you believe in the rule of law, if you believe in equal justice under the law, and if you believe in equal application of our laws, you get the last words.
Yeah, I mean, look, that's why I said at the beginning of our conversation today that Trump really emerges the winner on all this, even if You don't like him.
Nobody in the in their right mind would think that Stormy Daniels is a credible witness.
She owes Donald Trump five hundred and sixty thousand dollars.
Do you think the jury members know that?
They haven't been told that yet.
No, that actually came up in trial yesterday, and she actually testified that she has no intention.
Well, she had said publicly already that she had no intention of ever paying it.
Right.
And then was asked if she's going to pay it back, and she said, I don't know.
So anyway, no one no one believes this is up and up.
Um it comes down to partisanship again.
People who hate Trump, they'll vote for Biden.
Fair-minded people, I think, will vote for Trump.
Why do you have so much confidence in this jury?
I'm having a hard time understanding that part.
I think out of the twelve, you'll have maybe six who are rotten and corrupt, and the other six probably aren't.
And I'm going just by human nature now.
So but there's been so much smoke and mirrors.
They talk about a conspiracy.
They talk about election interference.
They talk about everything except what he's been charged with.
Listen, even people on the Golden Bachelor can understand this.
By the way, O'Reilly, you may be on the Golden Bachelor.
I I nominate you to go on the Golden Bachelor.
That's cruel because I don't want to myself on anybody else.
You're just being No, no, no, no.
You're not important.
I bet you a lot of people would be interested in in courting you and and maybe thinking about or contemplating marrying you.
It would be great.
Not after ten minutes of talking to me, they'd be out the door.
That's probably true.
All right, Bill O'Reilly.com, all things simple man.
Quick break, right back, we'll continue.

Working every day to remember the forgotten man.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour, 800, 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, you may not know this.
A violent crime is committed in America, our country, every twenty-four seconds.
Now, when it hits your doorstep, one wrong decision, that could mean losing your home, your freedom, or even worse.
And that's, you know, just because owning a gun just isn't enough anymore.
Listen, you need a new way to protect yourself and your family.
Let me tell you about Rod Chadwick.
I met him.
He's the former head of training for the FBI Aquanico.
He doesn't teach uh gun tricks or gimmicks.
That's no, that's not all he does here, although he's great with a firearm.
He knows how to spot danger before it's too late and how to stop an attacker with words and how to make a life or death decision under pressure.
Now, Rob and the U.S. uh concealed carry association, they have created a free video.
You need to watch it to get ready for all that is coming with no bail and defund and dismantle and reimagining the police and what's been happening and what's going to get worse.
Now, this video is not for everyone.
It has one of the most important law officers giving tips that few civilians ever get to hear, and it's available to Hannity listeners for a very limited time.
I want you to go to this website right now, watch it for free.
It's Defend Family dot com.
Watch it right now, defend family dot com.
That's D E F E N D family, one word dot com.
All right, even the the mob in the media uh are pretty much seeing what this disaster of Stormy Daniels was yesterday and what a disaster this trial has become.
Uh and you can tell they're getting very antsy, although they were very cocky in the beginning of this trial, thinking this is a slam dunk.
Um Harry Littman is an MS DNC legal analyst and listen to him describe Stormy Daniels as a colorful guest who irritated the judge.
You don't think the jury notices that?
Listen.
We're talking about a very, very colorful witness who detailed uh kinds of events and just uh v uh, you know, efforts and ways of being that I think for the jury was were fairly foreign.
She spoke very quickly, nervously.
She told a lot of jokes, and not all of them landed.
I haven't seen Mayor Chan this in this trial be so sort of irritated, and it came across, I think, as being irritated with her level of detail.
That's something if you're the DA, you're worried about because you don't want them to think that he, the judge, is actually on displeased in any way with the witness.
Then you have another MSDNC legal expert saying that Stormy Daniels turned the trial into a quasi-sexual assault case, and most of her testimony was probably unnecessary.
Most of it, pretty much all of it.
It was all irrelevant, it was all immaterial.
Listen.
I think Stormy Daniels' testimony could have been accomplished with three words in the sense that we had sex.
Everything else was probably unnecessary.
Uh it goes back to the issue.
This is not a sex assault case.
And the defense is going to argue, and right or wrong, this is what they will argue on appeal, uh, that this they uh that kind of testimony turned this into a quasi sex assault case, which painted the defendant in an unnecessarily bad light, in a way that you can't unring the bell.
Stormy Daniels is one of those witnesses that tends to not just answer the question asked, but add her own editorial, and that is a really dangerous thing.
I promise you the prosecution is sitting at their desk saying, just answer the question, please just answer the question, please, just the question, no editorializing.
All right, let's get to our busy phones.
Uh, but even they're beginning to get it.
800 941 Sean is on number if you want to be a part of the uh program.
Gina is in the state of California, the socialist Marxist Utopia.
What's going on?
How are you?
Oh, Sean, I'm so happy that I'm on.
I need your help.
Uh I reached my breaking point.
I've uh lived in C Southern California all my life.
Uh my line in the sand was going to be the sanctuary state where we let the convicted felons out the back door and we don't tell the Fed so they can go back in the street.
However, now with I'm paying Medical, a hundred percent paid, no copays, no out-of-pocket expenses, all the Well if you're in an illegal immigrant, you get free health care in California.
You know that, right?
That's right.
So now I'm paying 100% free health care.
They don't pay a premium, they don't pay a copay.
And it's a hundred percent paid by me.
They got free driver's license a couple years ago.
Uh now a hundred percent paid state tuition, and I just get a letter from my kids' school saying that if English is your second language, you have priority to get on the list for after school care.
So now they are above me as far as my kids getting on the list for after school care.
My parents came from New York sixty-four years ago to California, paying taxes.
Their children and grandchildren now have less rights than someone who just hopped over the border.
So here's the help I need from you.
I've had it.
Tomorrow, me and my three boys, I got triplets, we're jumping on a plane to Florida, and we are meeting with a real estate agent uh at the hundred and fourteen new home bills in the Tampa area, and I need your advice because I don't know if I could stand the the humidity.
Well, I but I have had what should I do?
Tell me.
Well, first of all, the weather's very similar.
I did live in Santa Barbara for five years in Southern California, and the weather's very similar to there.
Where in California do you live?
So it's a pretty nice area.
Yeah, no, it's a very nice area where you are.
Um and look, this is what you've got to do.
You've got to you you've got to find the place that's right for you.
Tampa, I happen to love.
I have a lot of friends there.
Uh I know what will become your favorite restaurant.
It's gonna be chicken salad chick.
Uh, cause my friends, Paul and Lindsay run the place, and they have a number of stores around the Tampa area, and it's phenomenal.
Uh and the people are wonderful.
The the biggest change for me has been a very, very discernible way that people react to me.
All right, I'm a public figure, I'm fair game.
I understand that people in New York City are not gonna like me.
But it it was getting pretty downright hostile for me uh at the end, and I felt it was becoming a danger, not only for me, but anybody that might be with me at any given time, and I just didn't like it.
And and I had to be very selective where I went, and I just I didn't feel free, and I never liked the weather, and on top of it, I I just saw you know, crime and uh disintegr uh disintegrating government in front of my eyes.
You know, was taxes a consideration, absolutely.
Here's my advice.
Take your trip and and take a look at areas that you think you might be interested in, and then you have to look into the the all the legal steps that are necessary to domicile, become a resident, um, and a full-time Floridian.
And by the way, the l the things that I had to do, the list was long, and and I hired lawyers and accountants to do it all the right way, the legal way, and I just followed it by the book.
I just, you know, I hired the right people that know their job, and there are people that just help other people from other states make the transition to Florida and do it in a clean way and do it in a legal way, and I I did it that way.
And but I will tell you it's the best move I ever made.
I don't regret it and haven't regretted it one second.
And I I I couldn't be happier.
Now will I occasionally go back to New York and say hello to some of my friends, yeah, and maybe a couple of weekends a year, and to be honest though, they all want to come down here and see me because the weather's better, especially in the winter time.
But I I don't think you'll regret it.
I really I have found the people so welcoming to me and and everybody that I know down here just uh they're very nice people and they're from all over the country.
The west coast of Florida t tends to be more midwestern, people from Michigan, Ohio, and and Wisconsin, you know, salt of the earth uh people on the east coast of of Florida, you tend to have more people from the Northeast.
But with that said, you have people coming from all over the country.
Um I think you're gonna see this migration continue probably for fifteen more years.
You still have baby boomers that have yet to retire, and I think for a lot of different reasons, people are gonna be moving down here more and more.
Miami seems to be growing into Wall Street South, and I think you're gonna see more financial institutions abandoning New York uh as the years go on, and and people realize that it's the a better better way to live.
The schools, you mentioned schools, schools are number one uh in in terms of student learning of every state in Florida for about half the cost that they're paying in in California.
Uh if you look at the crime rate, violent crime rate, it's half of what it is in California.
You have uh a governor that literally has a higher population than the state of New York, and he their budget is half of what New York's is and their infrastructure is a thousand times better.
So I think that this is uh a much better place uh to raise your family and you're gonna find like-minded people.
The only thing I say to other people listening to us that might be considering moving here, if you're gonna bring your liberal leftist Marxist values with you, stay where you are.
Absolutely.
And DeSanta signed in the uh voucher system.
My kids can go to a private school and get eight thousand dollars um because the indoctrination right now at the schools in San Diego, uh, you wouldn't even believe it, Sean.
You Yeah, but you know what?
You might be able to use the public schools because they're not, you know, they're Being really diligent in Florida in terms of age appropriate materials and focusing on reading, writing, math, science, history, and computers.
They're not focused on woke.
And it's one of their the one of their thing classrooms is just decorated with LGBT flags.
I don't know why.
I don't know why someone's sexuality is in my kids' classroom, but that's what it is all over the classroom signed, and I don't even know how they get away with it.
But I'm hoping that they're not going to see that, that they're just actually going to learn.
I I will tell you that I I think look, there's air conditioning everywhere.
I mean, what you know, even when I lived in New York, to be honest, you know, winter weather wasn't that bad for me because I'd I'd get out of a car, I'd go to a building and I'd be in a room, or and then I'd get back in a car, go to another building, and then I'd be in a room, and if the heat wasn't high enough, I'd put it up.
So uh I didn't have to experience that much of the winter burden, if you will, my days of shoveling were over, so I didn't have to worry about that too much.
And I just I'll tell you, I just think the people down here are very special.
I think you know, the entire southern part of the United States are people that probably share your values and are committed to the things you're committed to, and they believe in in the values that you believe in, and let New York and California and Illinois and and New Jersey, you know, go their own way and they'll have their values and and I guess the people will put up with their high taxes, burdensome regulation, horrible weather, and everything in between.
Yeah, absolutely.
And DeSantis has, you know, he's he's done a great job.
Um, you know, he's been a great governor, honestly, and he's become a great friend.
Absolutely.
Um and I was glad to see that him and and President Trump got together and hopefully put their differences aside.
I think there's way more they agree on than disagree on.
Uh campaigns get, you know, pretty pretty brutal sometimes than that happened, but uh I I'm glad they put it past them.
Uh anyway, I appreciate it.
Uh we will welcome you with open arms.
That I can tell you.
Don't let not your heart be troubled there, okay?
I don't know where you're living because you're not disclosing it, but I don't know.
I I hope maybe I see on my trip.
Well, maybe this year I might go out on a little Hannity tour at some point.
I don't know.
I haven't decided yet.
We're working on a couple of things, okay.
Thanks so much, Sean.
Bye bye.
Uh 800 941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
All right, quick break.
We'll come right back and more of your calls coming up straight ahead, toll-free.
It is 800-941 Sean if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
Broadcasting throughout the greatest country in the world.
You are locked in on the Sean Hannity Show.
Let's get back to our busy phones.
Kevin, San Francisco, next, Sean Hannity Show.
Hi.
Hey, Sean, how you doing?
What's going on?
I'm doing good.
Well, thanks for all you what you do.
Um, I pray to God that Donald Trump, our President Trump, gets acquitted and comes back and uh fights the even the Republican Party, because there's a lot of wimps in the Republican Party that will not stand up for President Trump, uh, yet alone uh for the American people.
They let uh the Democrats change the narrative, and that's what I love about President Trump is he will change it and flip it on a dime and actually have the media spun out on stuff.
Like he can go in there and say, hey, um you could be um uh pro-choice, you can be for abortion, and I would love for him to say, like, you know what, you can fall back on that, but I will put the same amount of money into people that want to fight for life and uh have that you know as an option.
I I'm pro-life.
Um I I believe in God.
I believe, you know, that's that's what we're here for.
And um, but if he went in there and changed the narrative and had people think about it and be like, you know what, I have a choice and we will overwhelmingly win.
Let me say this.
All of the things that you're saying can happen in 180 days.
Okay.
I I love the fact that you know, I I talked to Chip Roy, Congressman Texas earlier today.
And for example, they they are putting out what's called the Save Act, which would require proof of citizenship if you want to vote.
Uh, I support that.
And I think that, you know, what's really Republicans have got to understand now that there's more they agree on than disagree on, and they've got to focus on the next hundred and eighty days.
If Republic if Donald Trump, I and and by the way, I want to lower your expectations.
The odds are not that Donald Trump is going to get an acquittal.
The best I'm hoping for would be a hung jury.
That would be the best.
Honestly, I just I have no faith that New York that he can get a fair trial in New York.
And with that said, I believe any conviction will be overturned on appeal, but I don't want your expectations to be, oh, he's going to be acquitted.
No, I they have stacked the deck against him with the judge and the jury and everything in between.
It is not a friendly venue, never has been.
They take the third highest ranking, you know, partisan Justice Department official to prosecute the case for Alvin Bragg.
It's horrible.
But with all that said, I don't think that case is going to matter a lick when it comes to what happens in 180 days.
And we can shock the world and change the world.
That's why I'm deputizing every one of you listening to my voice right now.
Do everything you in your power so you don't wake up the morning after election day and say, Oh, I should have put more effort in.
Anyway, let's see what happens.
800-941 Sean.
Appreciate the call, Kevin.
