What happens to you if Donald Trump wins?
What do you do?
What's your first move?
I mean, I it sounds nuts, but like I wouldn't be surprised if this guy threw me in jail.
You have a president of the United States who is living embodiment of the rule of law, even with respect to his only living son.
She no lost she knows so long as she was denied.
Our freedom can never be secured.
The countdown is on T minus 144 days left till we have come in to your city.
Don't play out guidance and say you will song.
From coast to coast.
From border to border.
From sea to shining sea, Sean Hannity is on.
*Dramatic music*
And thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Uh, here's our toll-free telephone number.
You'd like to be a part of the program.
It's 800.
941 Sean, if you want to join us, 144 days until well, what is an inflection point for the country?
But only 94 days, I'm sorry, 95 days until early voting begins.
And that first begins in this in the Commonwealth, the state of Pennsylvania.
So keep that in your head.
Hannity, your broken record.
I'm gonna continue to be a broken record.
Is it the system I want for voting?
No.
I prefer in-person, same day voting.
Election day should be a national holiday.
You make exceptions for the military, for the sick, elderly, infirmed, and they can vote early, vote by mail.
But otherwise, everybody goes to their polling place.
And that you have paper ballots, and that you have voter ID and signature verification and chain of custody controls for any of the mail in ballots.
And then you have updated voter rolls, and then you have partisan observers on all sides watching the voting up close and personal all day, not over somebody's shoulder.
But the vote counting, and then watch the vote counting all night.
You declare a winner, and everybody can go home.
You'll have confidence and you'll have integrity in the system that you've never had before.
But that's not the case.
If you'd like to change it to that system, I am telling people you can't start out election day down hundreds of thousands of votes.
And that means you have to embrace something that you don't love.
And that's voting early, voting by mail.
And conservatives, Republicans, if you don't overcome your reluctance and resistance and bank your vote, you may not be able to vote on election day for whatever reason.
Perfect case in point was the runoff election in the district for George Santos in in Long Island, New York.
Because on election day of the runoff, Democrats already banked their votes.
And then guess what?
It started snowing.
And on that snowy day, many people were prevented from voting that probably otherwise would have voted.
And the Democrat won that seat, which was probably gonna happen anyway, considering Tom Swazi was the foreign former county commissioner of Nassau County and Had a lot of name recognition, but that's a separate point.
All right.
A lot of news as we speak.
Uh, President Zelinski and Joe Biden are holding a joint press conference where they're going to take a whopping four questions.
Two from American media, two from Ukrainian media, you know, announcing this bilateral deal that they have made.
I mean, I'm I'm listening to all of this, and this has not been a particularly good day.
This was not Biden's worst moment, but it's not been a particularly good day for your president as he had to head back to the G7.
And it's kind of funny in some aspects because if you look at the people at the G7, it's kind of humorous because you've got, let's see, one uh one leader, uh, you have just little Justin at a 50-year low in terms of poll numbers.
You have two of the leaders that have just recently lost elections, you have two unelected Eurocrats, uh, you got another guy, uh, the Prime Minister of Great Britain about to lose an election, and then you got Joe Biden who's not exactly uh all there.
I mean, it was embarrassing.
As an American citizen, I can just tell you at this point, I'm I I am just I feel a sense of humiliation watching such a weak, frail cognitive mess as president and watching the other G7 leaders, you know, work hard to keep him on track.
You know, the the new the new head, uh Giorgio Malani of uh of Italy is the only one there that is actually loved by the people of our country.
Uh, just winning a huge election, strong conservative.
But you know, what do we see in Joe Biden?
Exhausted, lost, he's wandering off, and people try to like bring him.
Oh, come on over here, Joe, guiding him, covering for him, just like Congress has covered for him, his cabinet is covered for him, just like his family is covering for him, his aides are covering for him, all lying about it, but he wanders off, he mumbles, he bumbles, he stumbles, he fumbles.
And it's uh it's just unbelievable.
And then he's talking about more money for Ukraine, and meanwhile, Europe has never stepped up to protect their own continent to the level that they should have committed.
He's doing it, and basically he's now involved in a proxy war against Russia and Vladimir Putin.
Hundreds of billions of dollars of money spent.
He has no problem with Zelensky going on an offense against Vladimir Putin, the ICC George Clooney and his and his wife, the two idiots that they are.
You know, they didn't put, you know, lobby the ICC to label Vladimir Putin a war criminal the way they did Prime Minister Netanyahu.
The aggressor in this conflict was Russia.
Russia's decimated entire cities and towns all over Ukraine.
But no, no, George Clooney's and his wife's silence is deafening.
And that goes for the lunatics on college campuses and the repulsive anti-Semitism that we've seen on college campuses and in in the in our country and all over Europe and in Australia and around the world.
I mean, but Vladimir Putin gets a pass.
Vladimir Putin gets all this money, and all Israel gets lectures how they need to, you know, show restraint, show restraint.
Here was one of the most daring, bold rescue efforts, hostage rescue efforts in history.
They did it in broad daylight at 11 a.m.
And they went right into the heart of Gaza after getting intel where four Israeli hostages were being held since October the seventh.
And by the way, there were IDF soldiers that lost their life in this operation.
You may not know this about Prime Minister Netanyahu, but his own brother lost his life in the raid of Entebe.
I mean, the Israelis commandos of some of the most elite fighting forces on the face of this earth.
Amazing courage.
It was a massive fire fight.
And yeah, and all you read from the world is, well, there are people that died, and Kamala Harris saying, Well, what about the people that died as Israel was was rescuing their hostages?
Well, who do we hold responsible for that?
You hold the people responsible that started the war.
And you have the leader of Hamas saying, yeah, well, these civilian casualties, it's just all part of the broader effort.
No problem at all whatsoever.
They've been using Palestinians as human shields for for decades now as they fired their rockets from hospitals and schools, knowing that Israel is less likely to strike back.
But after this terror attack and slaughtering twelve hundred Israelis and taking hundreds hostage, the Israelis have every right to win their war in the battle against terrorism.
But for some reason, Joe Biden doesn't have that moral clarity.
They've only gotten they haven't even gotten close to fifty billion dollars worth of aid.
Never mind the hundreds and hundreds of billions that Biden has poured into Ukraine without any lectures about how they're to fight their war.
Although he did in some aspects early on, he was saying you can't use this bomb and you can't take the MIGs from Poland that they were offering 28 four or 28 of them, whatever the number was.
It's these are really unbelievable times that we're living in.
I mean, up is down and down is up.
And the corruption just exists.
We had a Supreme Court decision today on the issue of the abortion pill and a unanimous decision.
They announced this morning.
That includes, yes, the conservatives, all three appointed by Donald Trump.
They decided not to ban the abortion pill.
Whoopsie Daisy.
There goes the demagoguing of abortion aspect, which is probably one of the biggest parts of the Democratic Party's argument.
They they certainly can't run on Joe Biden allowing people with terror ties into the country, or eleven million unvetted illegal Joe Biden immigrants, or the thirty thousand Chinese nationals that have entered our country illegally and unvetted since October, the fiscal year began this year, after the twenty-six thousand from last year.
Well, we beat that record already.
But anyway, it is a decision that is put forward by a court uh in spite of the left in this country predicting the opposite would occur.
And uh they couldn't have been more wrong.
And, you know, there's been an all-out assault against Justices Alito, Clarence Thomas.
And don't be surprised if if we're foolish enough in this election, don't think the Democrats won't try to stack the court.
Don't think that they won't try to remove the lifetime appointment of of Supreme Court justices.
Don't think that they won't try to remove conservative justices.
Don't think they won't try to move forward with DC and Puerto Rico statehood if they think that's going to give them four Senate seats in perpetuity or what they believe to be perpetuity.
none of that uh donald trump did meet with the congressional republicans today apparently got a hero's welcome and And uh meeting with uh Mitch McConnell, and you know, that's not exactly been the best relationship on the face of the earth.
But I just watched this president, and all I feel is a sense of embarrassment for the country.
It's really sad and really unnecessary.
Uh photo shows Joe Biden sniffing the hair of Italy's prime uh prime minister.
He's the only one in the G7 that actually is liked in in the country she's representing right now.
Did you see the hair sniffing, Linda?
I did indeed.
Yeah, Biden sniffing, nuzzling, ultimately kissing the hair of Israel's I'm sorry, it's Israel's Italy's female prime minister, Georgi Maloney.
And you know, I mean, he's so exhausted.
I don't even think this guy knows what he's doing half the time.
But I'm just saying for a hot second, if that was anybody else, including him probably the most important person, if that was Trump.
And he had gone up to a woman and done that.
The whole world would be up in arms.
And they're all asleep at the switch and not saying a word.
The only reason I don't air the creepy Joe videos of him like rubbing the shoulders of these young girls and sniffing their hair.
I mean, it is the creepiest thing you're talking about.
They're children.
They're not young girls.
They're children.
Okay, fair enough.
I stand corrected.
And you know what?
You're right.
They're children.
And they're also the wives of congressmen and senators.
So let's be fair, too.
They're also adults.
But the children part really freaks me out.
And I'll tell you why, because he does it all the time.
It is the most bizarre thing that I think I've ever seen in my my whole life.
It is it is beyond bizarre.
But that's Joe Biden.
Did you see Jillian Michaels?
I always like Jillian Michaels.
Now she's a health, wellness, you know, fitness, uh lifestyle coach, and she's tough as nails.
And I mean, she was great on that weight loss show, and you know, really helping people to focus on their health.
She gave the most amazing statement today about getting away from her home state and why she's moved away from California.
And I I mean, it was just a kick-ass statement.
We'll play it later in the program today.
Uh we'll get to this with Ronnie Jackson later in the program because most voters now see that which I've been telling everybody since what, four years now, that Joe Biden's mental decline is real, and it is now I would even take it a step further, jeopardizing national security.
There's a piece on Fox News.com is that you know, this this has gotten precipitously dramatically and obviously worse.
He's in a perpetual state of confusion.
That was on full display on this G7 trip.
He displayed it also in Normandy when he was in France and Washington Insiders reporting that the president is really performing poorly in meetings, and this cognitive impairment is getting worse and worse and worse.
And what are the Democrats going to do?
They just had a poll come out that shows that Kamala Harris, her approval rating is lower than Joe Biden's.
It's pretty unreal.
The mother of Hunter's love child now says that her house was broken into 10 times while she was trying to get him to acknowledge that the baby was his.
Well, is anyone going to investigate that in this weaponized Department of Justice?
Also, she claimed that he stored his drug gear at Joe Biden's home.
Anybody going to investigate that?
Are we going to reopen the cocaine in the White House case?
After 10 long days of hard-hitting investigating, they just came to the conclusion they'd never figure out whose cocaine was in the Biden White House.
His adult children accompany Grandpa Joe to the G7.
Is Joe ever going to recognize the fact that he has this other granddaughter?
Apparently not.
He got away with it up to this point.
All right, we've got the economy.
We've got immigration.
We've got Donald Trump meeting with congressional Republicans.
We've got Mike Gates coming up in the program and Dr. Ronnie Jackson coming up and a lot of your calls coming up 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass, you're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.

Alright, so Donald Trump, I mean, it was like a hero's welcome.
We'll get full reaction.
We have Ronnie Jackson and Matt Gaetz coming up.
When he met with Republican leaders today, and they had this breakfast, I had people that have been a part of it.
They've been writing me saying it was just a grand slam today.
And a moment of unity.
one of the things I've always said about Donald Trump that he does for Republicans is he gives them a spine and a backbone.
And he talked apparently passionately about immigration and about the economy and about law and order and about America's role in the world and not getting into these long protracted wars.
And you know, directly, you know, contradicting what we saw with the G7 and Joe Biden basically committing more billions and billions of dollars to Ukraine.
This on the heels of Merrick Garland being held contempted of Congress, which was the right thing to do.
I'm not sure exactly what's going to happen.
But anyway, uh I'm pretty doubtful that Garland's own DOJ is going to charge him the way they charge Trump aides.
They only, you know, with all with all the talk and the fear, AOC is afraid she's going to prison.
And, you know, conspiracy theorist Rachel Maddow thinks she's going to be put in a camp.
Well, what kind of camp is she talking about?
Like day camp, sleepover camp.
Nobody's putting anybody in camps.
Nobody's going to put AOC in jail unless she breaks the law.
Republicans, they don't need to make stuff up the way Democrats do.
Uh the Mitch McConnell meeting is interesting to me, but not exactly a lot of love in that room.
And House uh committee now has subpoenaed 15 Biden cabinet secretaries, demanding they hand over documents on voter mobilization uh on a voter mobilization scheme.
Let's see if that happens.
You see, if you're on the left, you're not going to be treated the same way.
That's not how that's not how they roll.
That's not what they do.
Is one system of justice, and that is for the Republicans, and another system of justice for everybody else.
And the Democrats, you know, they're not going to have their homes rated for top secret classified documents.
They're not going to be held accountable for a dirty disinformation Russian dossier that they labeled the legal expense because a law firm that Hillary Clinton hired, Perkins Coey funnel money to a op research firm, which then hired Christopher Steele.
Well, that's not a legal expense.
He's not being tried by Alvin Bragg, never will be tried by Alvin Bragg.
Pretty unbelievable.
He's a strange times that we're living in.
And look, we're only 95 days away from early voting starting.
I'm going to start reminding you of that every day so you understand how bad this is.
A very weird moment when I mentioned that Biden awkwardly saluted, not only did he sniff her hair, but the Italian prime minister, Giorgia Malani, when he arrived at the G7 summit.
I'm not sure exactly what that was about either.
I just think he's so checked out.
He doesn't really even know what he's doing half the time.
Biden's Department of Justice is saying that the attorney general Merrick Garland is immune from prosecution.
Well, that was Peter Navarro's argument, and Peter Navarro is in a prison and he'll serve four months in prison.
And Steve Bannon has just been ordered to report to prison.
Guess that happens on July first.
You see, if your name is Eric Holder or Merrick Garland, or you name Lois Lerner, and you're a Democrat, don't worry, you're never going to be held in contempt.
This is what the weaponization of justice is all about.
This is why we keep telling you about it.
And I found that somewhat ironic Biden pushing gun storage laws, a magazine ban, and lawsuits against uh lawsuits against firearm makers.
Uh really, we're gonna what try and run them out of business that way.
That's again, just to get things done.
These are fantastical times that we're living in here.
When you can have the president of the United States weeks before the 2020 election, lie directly to the American people and say that the Hunter laptop story is false when it was it.
Hunter saying uh it's false, it wasn't.
51 former Intel agents that knew nothing about the laptop, nothing.
They never examined it, they knew nothing about it.
All they knew is Wink and Tony Blinken desperately needed people with their name and their background to get behind their lie, and they went along with the lie.
Republicans now will be investigating that too.
The FBI knew and had already corroborated in March of 2020 that that laptop was very real.
That's why they started meeting.
Now we understand why why were they meeting with big tech companies and social media companies in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election?
They were meeting weekly with them for months to pre-bunk the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Why would they be pre-bunking it?
Because they knew Rudy Giuliani's attorney had a copy of it.
They knew that it was going to leak.
They knew that it would probably derail any chance Joe Biden had at beating Donald Trump.
So they just went out and lied.
And then the big lie was echoed by the media mob.
And then big tech, you know, even though they asked directly the FBI that knew that the laptop was real, whether or not this was the misinformation campaign they were being warned about, or whether or not the laptop story of the New York Post was real, they just refused to give an answer.
And now that we net we now know that everything in that laptop is real, when is that investigation going to begin?
Don't hold your breath.
Not sure that that's gonna happen.
Really sad day for the country, sad day for justice, and this is why 145 days from now really matters.
Because I just shudder to think what's gonna happen in the country otherwise.
We don't have good news on the economy to share with you.
Now I brought this up last night.
We had Ron DeSantis on the program, and for the longest time, In N Out Burger, they they resisted, and they were saying publicly, even though in California they raised the minimum wage to $20 an hour, they have resisted raising prices on people because they they care about their customers.
They've done everything they possibly could do.
And now they were forced to raise the cost.
They they eventually just had to give in because it's it's they've they're not in business as a charity, they're in business to make money.
And they weren't they weren't able to have a profit margin.
And so they found they went up about 76 cents if you got a double double a fry and a coke.
Coolest thing about In N Out Burger, it's one of the cleanest fast food places you've ever seen in your life.
They change the oil for the French fries every day.
They use real potatoes for the French fries.
Linda, you've been there with us.
I don't and and you watch them.
They actually make the French fries right there in front of you, right from fresh potatoes.
It's amazing.
It's a great shape.
Double double.
Absolutely.
Isn't it amazing?
Absolutely.
Love that shade.
And so we had Ron DeSantis.
He actually tried to enlist me last night as a member of the Chamber of Commerce to volunteer for Florida because I'm saying I want In N Out Burger to come to Florida.
Love to have In N Out Burger.
Crown Burger.
Also like chicken salad chick.
My friends own that out of Tampa.
They have a number of locations there.
Paul and Lindsay.
That's great.
I just I love these places.
I just don't get to eat them as much as I like because I'm health conscious and I I can't eat a burger and fries every day.
Well, maybe I could, right?
I guess I could try.
Say go for it, boss.
You're gonna die.
You know, the last thing you might think about on your deathbed is that you didn't have that burger and fries.
Yeah, I probably would.
I'm like, why didn't I just get it every time I wanted it?
You know what I'm saying?
Nobody's ever gonna die and say, I'm so glad I lost those extra five pounds.
No, but it's never gonna happen.
Listen, I get I also get it in a lettuce wrap.
You know how I get my in and out burger.
I do.
I get an animal style, and I get it.
How do they what's the the verbiage?
They have this whole secret coated menu.
Um not vegetarian, I hate that word.
It's uh uh I get it in a lettuce wrap.
And it's delicious.
There's something instead of a bun, if you try a Your favorite burger and a lettuce wrap, it's awesome.
Tastes great.
So, but now what's happened to all of these fast food places?
Well, now Burger King's seeing that their foot traffic is down nearly 4%, 3.86%.
Wendy's is down 3.24%.
In an ounce down 2.59%.
McDonald's down 2.5%.
I mean, it's just so unfair.
And then what's going to happen?
These companies are going to end up laying off people.
And I talked about the 25% of Americans that now have had to forego meals, not because they're being healthy and want to be on a diet and want to be at their best weight.
No, they've had to forego meals because they can't afford them.
And 66% are gulping water, according to an article on Foxbusiness.com.
And they've now, the Fed yesterday passed on lowering interest rates.
I mean, I love all these articles.
They say, oh, inflation only went up year over year, 3.3% of me.
Less than expected.
Like, what are you talking about less than expected?
Inflation was supposed to be under control right now.
It's not.
It's up a whopping the last four months, 3.2% increase, 3.5% increase, 3.4% increase, 3.3% increase.
Basically it's the same.
We're not seeing any improvement in the economy.
And the Fed knows it, which is why they didn't reduce interest rates in this meeting that they had yesterday, and they're acknowledging that the Biden administration is fudging these employment numbers because they're not real.
And all these jobs that are being created are low-paying jobs, and a lot of them are going to illegal immigrants in the country that are not being paid the same amounts of money.
It's just I'm so sick of being lied to on every major impactful issue of our time we're being lied to.
Pretty incredible.
What other news do we have?
On the election front, we got a lot of news.
I'm stretching as deeply as far across the room as I can.
Ah.
I should have moved it over.
Oh, there is a watchdog group now claiming the FBI is purging their ranks of Trump supporters.
Did you hear this story, Linda?
Nonprofit advocacy.
This was first broken by just the news.com, but Inspector General Michael Horowitz regarding a 12-year-old FBI veteran who was pushed out of the agency.
The FBI is forced our client to forego years of additional retirement credits, health benefits, employment opportunities, had an had a security clearance revoked by the FBI, upset because he happens to be a conservative.
All of his coworkers were interviewed using pre-printed forms designed to reveal forbidden political views.
First question.
Handwritten notes from the interviewer state, Trump supporter, strong Republican values.
Oh, there's a reason to disqualify somebody from a weaponized DOJ and FBI.
I've been telling you that this is happening.
You have a new poll shows by a two-to-one margin Palestinians now support Hamas'October 7th massacre of Israel.
Oh, okay.
They're the people that put him in power in the first place, and they're the ones that know that their charter calls for the destruction of Israel.
I didn't mention this, but Biden's approval rating on immigration now is at a new low on this on the heels of 62% of Americans saying that they support the deportation of people that came into the country illegally.
Oh, and by the way, I was happy to read this today.
The WMBA is experienced what?
A record level of exposure thanks to the likes of people like Caitlin Clark.
But in spite of that, the league is expected to lose $50 million this season.
Well, if they keep, you know, you know, pounding on Caitlin Clark, preventing her from playing in the Olympics, and they want to be that from a business standpoint that dumb and not realize that Caitlin Clark is putting people in the seats and bringing interest to a sport that did not have as much interest Until she got to the league,
and they can't recognize that that'll mean more money for players, more money for owners, more money for sports arenas, more jobs created.
If they want to be dumb, then let them be dumb because Caitlin Clark's gonna get very wealthy very fast with her endorsements, and it's not gonna matter that they pay her under a hundred grand a year for four years.
It's pretty incredible.
I don't know why people are that short-sighted.
Kind of like full of hate if you really want to know the truth.
Uh, Donald Trump is now leading by eight in the state of Arizona.
This on the heels of his numbers out of Pennsylvania yesterday, where he's leading there as well.
And he still continues to l lead in all of these swing states.
That would be a good sign for Republicans.
Anyway, House Republicans are scrambling.
Donald Trump said that with Milwaukee's a horrible city where they're having the convention.
Well, what was Donald Trump referring to?
If you live in Milwaukee, hate to tell you, but Milwaukee has the third highest uh crime rate in the entire country for crying out loud.
Well, yeah, it's not exactly the nicest place on earth, unfortunately.
So, yeah, because of democratic policies, it's been destroyed.
And now you want to blame the guy that tells you the truth that you deserve law and order and safety and security for you and your family.
Oh, he didn't say it the right way.
Sorry, but New York's become uh an absolute Adam Schif hold too when it comes to cry.
You want smart political talk without the meltdowns?
We got you.
