Sean Kennedy is on.
Let's get ready to mumble.
Just getting mumble bumble stumble, tumble.
I don't know, who knows what he's gonna do.
Uh glad you're with us.
Uh it is debate day in America, and uh we are in the city of Atlanta.
It's great to be back to my southern home.
And uh I lived here four wonderful years, to be honest.
Uh had a great time here from 92 to 96 as a local broadcaster.
And uh anyway, it's great to be back.
Uh I've been talking to some of my old friends that are here.
Uh it's game day, it's fight night, it is get it on uh night.
And you know it's interesting.
I I want to just slow everybody down a hair so that you understand what's gonna happen in this debate.
Now, this is the first time in televised debate history that one candidate was not included in any of the decision making.
Uh Joe Biden announced Make my day that he would only do four networks and no more, and that he would only do two debates, and he challenged Donald Trump.
And Donald Trump had no say as to what the venues would be.
And it was either gonna be their way or the highway.
There would be no debate tonight if Donald Trump was not willing to put himself out there on the line in unfriendly territory, as we have chronicled with fake Jake and fake Dana Bash on fake news CNN, and and and take basically a three-on-one scenario.
And and the other network, what?
ABC and I don't know.
Was it Telemundo, maybe?
I don't know, I'm not sure.
But certainly wasn't Fox News.
Wasn't any conservative outlet of any kind.
So, and then of course, Donald Trump in the first time in the modern history of televised debates that both sides didn't have to agree on who the moderators were.
So you got two, you know, liberal, Trump-hating moderators, as we have proven now for the last week and even before that, that'll be in charge of this debate, not favorable to Donald Trump, and Trump had no say.
Now, why would Donald Trump accept those terms?
Because he's not afraid.
And I think that Donald Trump understood what he was being set up.
I I really believe that the Biden people thought that Trump would say no, and they would be able to walk away cleanly, and they'd be able to say, Well, we tried to debate, but Donald Trump said no.
He was too chicken to debate.
Well, Donald Trump saw that a mile away and said, You know what?
Yeah, everything else in my life is unfair.
Might as well accept the unfairness of the situation they're laying out here.
Now, so that that's the situation that he's walking into tonight, but they probably did him a favor.
He didn't have any say about what the rules are about muting microphones.
Joe Biden insisted on that, and he may end up regretting it because the more that Joe has to talk, and I have no idea if it's going to be you know, hyper caffeinated, jacked up Joe tonight or medium Joe or whatever Joe.
But I want you to just take a minute and think about this.
Had you not think it is strange, weird, odd, bizarre, even that you have a president of our country for what was it, seven, eight, nine days, however long it's been, that he had to stay in seclusion with sixteen people coaching him for a ninety minute debate to prepare for on the issues that you're supposed to be well versed in as the president of the United States.
You know, how in how is that in any way a normal circumstance?
You're talking about the hardest job in the world.
That is to be the leader of the free world, something Joe Biden is not, and that is that you need a president that is engaged.
You think about what's Joe gonna do when that 3 a.m. phone call comes in is Joe Biden, you know, they're gonna say, Well, we'll get back to you in a week after we rest him and and you know, get him jacked up on on Red Bull and caffeine pills and extra strength, etc.
And whatever, and vitamin B twel infusions and whatever else he might be taking.
And it's it's just so bizarre that for a 90 minute debate, this is what he has to do.
Now, it's not just this event.
He tends to disappear before any big event for long periods of time.
Did it before the State of the Union address.
And then the oddest thing about that is prior to the State of the Union, that was Joe, he didn't even allow the Speaker of the House the courtesy of protocol, which is the he bangs the gavel, calls the House to order, and says, My high honor, distinct privilege, and pleasure introduce the president of the United States.
Then everyone stands and claps for the president, and then the president goes into a speech.
Uh uh Madam Vice President, Mr. Speaker, distinguished guest, first lady, members of Congress, the State of the Union is strong.
No, he didn't wait.
He didn't get introduced by Mike Johnson.
It went...
That's what he did.
And then he got angry and he screamed half the speech, and he screams half the speech because that's the only way that he can stay halfway articulate and energized.
So that was what what immediately right after that I was on Fox.
I said, Wow, we never seen Jacked Ub Joe before.
That was jacked up Joe, hyper caffeinated Joe.
Now, liberals hate that I bring this up.
Now, do I think that Ronnie Jackson, the doctor, the medical doctor who examined what, three presidents and took care of three presidents in his life, is probably right in saying that maybe they were experimenting a little bit with with the doses of Red Bull.
And I'm being charitable by suggesting Red Bull.
Maybe it's just Red Bull.
I don't know.
I mean, you ever see a kid that has a cup of coffee for the first time?
Brrrrrrr, you know, kind of well, I don't know what it is.
Who knows?
Nobody knows.
So I but I want to manage your expectation in this way in that it's a 90 minute debate.
You cut the time in half and it's 45 minutes.
Then you've got the the biased moderators asking the questions.
Uh then you're gonna have what two or three commercial breaks, and what are we now down to?
Uh 30 minutes a candidate?
And I know some of you have uh a lot of you have been writing us and and telling us Donald Trump needs to say this, he needs to say that.
Need to say this, need to say that.
I mean, there's only so much time he's going to have to say anything in this debate.
Um I think people have no idea.
Uh I think they underestimate Donald Trump.
Uh, I think one of the first things that the moderators and Joe want to do is they're gonna want to piss off Donald Trump.
I predict he's not gonna take the bait at all.
I but they'll call him a convicted felon, they'll talk they'll call him an insurrectionist, a threat to democracy who wants retribution, they'll call him a radical, they'll call him unhinged, they'll call him everything.
And I think that it won't matter to Donald Trump.
I spent what I guess an hour and ten minutes interviewing him two weeks ago, and uh, we went from topic to topic to topic, high energy, dialed in, well informed, ready to go.
And if he didn't do any debate since uh prep since then, I would say he'd still be ready to go.
And regardless of what the question is, he has the ability to pivot to the issues that people really care about, as evidence in the polls, which is immigration, inflation, the economy, law and order, gas prices, national security, America's role in the world.
Now, is that where I think fake Jake wants to take the debate and fake Dana want no?
They're gonna want all right, who won the 2020 election?
Um will you accept the results of the 2024 election?
Well, I'll accept them unless I think that something inappropriate happened.
You know, we didn't know that 51 former Intel agents were organized in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election, uh, that had no knowledge of Hunter Biden's laptop, never examined the laptop or organized by Wink and Tony Blinken, who later became Joe's Secretary of State, and they just all went out and flat out lied, including some people that were currently working for the CIA's contractors.
And they did it not because they had intelligence, not because they even believed it, they did it to give Joe a talking point because they knew it would be a big issue in the upcoming debate that week.
And they did it for one reason only, and that's because they wanted Joe Biden to win.
So they're gonna who won the 2020 election, will you accept the results of 2024?
Why did you why are you an insurrectionist?
By the way, are they gonna ask Joe about why his vice president and why all the Democrats were either silent or lied to us about the 574 riots in the summer of 2020, where two dozen Americans died and thousands of cops hit with bricks, rocks, bottles, Molotov cocktails were injured, and billions in property damage, and Vice President Harris tweeting out support for a bail fund.
Uh, I think that uh, you know, I I think that would be a fair way to answer any of it.
Will you use your office for retribution?
You mean the way that Joe Biden has used his Department of Justice to go after me and my family and my supporters?
Do you mean do I no?
I he actually said to me in my interview, no, this has to stop.
Now that doesn't mean that Joe's very real laptop that Joe lied about in the last debate they had together because he got his 51 Intel people to lie for him and give him his talking point.
Uh it doesn't mean that Joe Biden, he just flat out lied to the American people.
He didn't know anything about whether that laptop was real or not real.
He just had his friend Tony Wink and Blinken organized a group of people that like Joe to just go out knowing nothing in light of the American people to help influence an election.
And then, of course, are you gonna put Rachel Madow in a camp?
I don't know if she means a day camp or like uh sleepaway camp.
Like what kind of camp is uh I mean it's so insane.
Then they're gonna want to talk about abortion, etc., Etc.
What the American people are gonna want to talk about is very evident in the polls.
Now, we have gone through a couple of weeks of just pure hell.
Everything that I predicted about Joe's open borders has been happening.
Everything, if you want to go back even further, when Donald Trump came down the escalator at Trump Tower in 2015 and warned that if we had open borders and we didn't secure our borders, that there would be people that there would be good people.
He said that in the speech, but he also said there'd be rapists and they'd be murderers.
Well, we saw what happened to the the little 13-year-old girl in Queens, New York, who was raped in broad daylight, and the rapists videotaped it.
We saw what happened to little Jocelyn in Houston, Texas.
This little 12-year-old girl fought back, bit these guys.
Two of them bit them, scratched them, trying to fight her way free.
They brutalized that girl for two hours and then slaughtered her.
Then of course, you have Rachel Morin.
Rachel Moran, a mother of five.
And we I I had to talk to her mother and Jocelyn's mother.
If I had to do interviews like that every day, I w I I'd have to quit.
I couldn't do it.
I I I I don't want to interview people in pain.
But the worst part of it is all that pain is preventable because we Joe Biden inherited secure borders.
He inherited a low inflation rate of 1.4%.
Joe Biden inherited a good economy.
Joe Biden, you know, in inherited all of these policies that were working.
Now inflation's up twenty some odd percent.
Energy prices are up of 40%, utility prices up close to 30 to 40%.
Everything you buy in every store you go to is up 50% on average, and you're paying about 12 grand more than what you were paying when Donald Trump was president.
And so, you know, there's there's a lot to get to.
And then you're gonna have is is fake Jake and fake Dana when Trump has a two-minute answer or one minute rebuttal.
Are they gonna try and interrupt him and not let him have you know his opportunity to address the American people directly?
Are they gonna try and and do Joe's job for them?
Because if there's any quote fact checking to go on, let the American people hear from Donald Trump, and if Joe Biden takes issue with it, let's see if his his jacked up brain, his hyper caffeinated brain can counter whatever point Donald Trump has made.
And I think you're gonna see a lot of back and forth, but there's a very limited window of time here that these candidates are gonna have to speak.
And all of you with all your great suggestions, and we have we do have a brilliant audience out there because you send them to me and my staff, and I look at them and I'm like, wow, that's a great idea.
That's another great idea, another great idea.
Anyway, so it's all happening tonight.
Uh just some uh programming notes, the live coverage tonight on Fox.
I will be on co-hosting with uh many of my my fellow hosts at Fox in the 8 p.m. hour in the lead up to the debate at nine.
Uh then I will be on immediately thereafter once the debate ends at 10 30 and Hannity also at 11.
We have the best lineup in the entire world uh of people that I'm I'm sure you're gonna want to stay up and watch and get reaction.
Uh we'll have a we'll have a poll on Hannity.com who won the debate.
If you want to go there, it'll also be on Twitter and and all my social media accounts of which I have zero access to.
Uh, but my staff lets me know what's on there, so we'll get to all that in the course of tonight.
But you know, it's a big night for sure.
And uh if you're asking me how I feel about it, I feel confident Donald Trump's gonna do well, and I think they underestimate him.
I don't know which Joe is showing up.
Anybody can bet.
I love the creativity of people on social media.
Somebody just sent me an ex post of somebody of Joe Biden going down the little boy stairs of Air Force One.
He can't use the big voice stairs, too, too big a risk he made trip and fall.
And it literally it literally I guess it's from RNC research.
He survived the cry of freeze.
Could you imagine for a 90-minute debate you gotta be in hiding for you know eight seven, eight, nine days, whatever it's been.
We'll continue.
We're in Atlanta.

No, no, no.
We all get along.
It's not like the old days when like me and O'Reilly hated each other.
Like you were gonna fight.
I just meant everybody's got a chance.
No, everybody knew that me and O'Reilly never got along.
You and O'Reilly still talk over each other and your friends.
There's nothing still.
No, it has nothing to do with talking over.
And it was, by the way, it was completely one-sided his fault, and he'll he'll even admit it.
Are you done?
I mean, I could go on for hours, but you know.

So it's pretty straightforward.
I think what President Trump, he can't worry about what Joe Biden is gonna, you know, emerging from the caverns of Camp David having you know taken off an entire what,
however, week plus you know, hunkered down with 16 people grilling him with questions, changing his waking hours because he usually goes to bed early, wakes up late, doesn't work hard, less than one event on average per day.
Uh we see him dazed and confused and mumbling and bumbling and stumbling, and of course, uh tripping and falling and on all the above.
Now, with all that said, I don't expect that tonight.
We do have one exception to the Biden cognitive impairment regular Joe, and that is the State of the Union address.
And that was jacked up Joe.
That was him.
And I'm gonna say one other thing that they're bad people.
Those bad people are Republicans, and the Republicans wouldn't do what I said.
So because they wouldn't do it, I said we couldn't fix the border.
And it was beyond bizarre and beyond weird.
Now, do I think that Joe is going to show up tonight?
Hyper caffeinated, jacked up Joe at the State of the Union.
I actually don't.
I think it's gonna be a modified version.
Dr. Ronnie Jackson, I think, said it best.
And when he went out there and he said, Nah, they're probably you know, um experimenting with dosing.
What in other words, exactly how many quote Red Bulls that Joe can have, or whatever.
Whatever it is.
Uh I wish he would have agreed to have a drug test.
I think that would be fair for the American people, but I don't think that's gonna happen.
Uh, as a matter of fact, we know that it's not gonna happen.
Um, do most people I if Donald Trump there's a part of me that doesn't want Donald Trump to go in there and knock Joe out.
What do you mean, Hannity?
You go, well, I want Donald Trump to be Donald Trump, and I want Donald Trump no matter what not to lose his cool.
I want Donald Trump to just lay out the facts that he like he does in any interview that he does with me, or the one that I told you that he did with me, and then followed up with Dr. Phil.
And I think that he doesn't have to go for a knockout.
I think let Joe letting Joe talk, whether he's coherent for once or not, won't matter.
Uh, you know, New Kingrich, I think, has been very smart in his analysis.
He goes, regardless of how Joe does in this debate, people are still gonna go shopping tomorrow and they're gonna see the price of everything through the roof.
We went through all those price increases yesterday.
Biden inflation is still over 20 plus percent.
He's still paying, you know, 40% more for energy and utilities and electricity and everything in between.
Uh, you still have no bail and defund and dismantle uh the police and reimagine the police, you still have Joe Biden's illegal immigration policies that have been a disaster, and he's gonna lie and say, well, well, Donald Trump didn't support my bill.
No, for three years you said the border was secure and the border was closed, and you bragged about getting rid of all the Trump policies that were working.
And then you said Republicans won't help me pass the bill.
I can't do it by myself.
Well, turned out you did do what you did by yourself because your your border bill was so asinine, dumb, and stupid that it would allow 5,000 people into the country illegally before it even triggered the option.
It actually gave the option at that point for and the discretion for Biden and Mayorcus if they wanted to stop the influx after the 5,000 threshold was made.
That's not a border security bill, and Trump was right to oppose it.
If he wants to secure the border, he should go back to the border policies that Trump left him that he inherited that were working.
But I think that, you know, uh if he shows a Pulse tonight, and he doesn't fall down and he doesn't mumble bumble stumble, and he shows any degree of energy, which a couple of Red Bulls can do for anybody.
If I drink a couple of Red Bulls before a show, and I'm gonna be talking a little bit faster in the show will be a little more Mickey Mouse issue than whatever.
I mean, it's normal.
I mean, sweet baby James, I'm looking at right now.
He could use like five Red Bulls, and I still don't think it would wake him up.
Um, that's what we're gonna see.
Um, you know, it's very interesting.
One thing the Daily Caller pointed out that I had not picked up on my own, CNN has not conducted a single fact check of Biden since announcing they were hosting the first presidential debate.
That announcement came on May 15th, a review of the outlet's fact-checking page shows.
The last Biden fact check was made on May 14th when Biden falsely claimed inflation was at 9% when he took office.
No, it was 1.4%.
And these are all topics that that of course Donald Trump can bring up.
Uh there will be a new Trump campaign ad questioning Biden's physical stamina and mental acuity, and the Biden campaign is displaying billboards on highways in Atlanta, congratulating Donald Trump on being a convicted felon.
Big deal.
That that case will be overturned.
And if I was Donald Trump, I'd make that point.
But the Trump campaign is running a pair of television ads Thursday that slam Biden's record and his physical and mental abilities.
They have another ad, I think, running about Joe Biden and the border.
Uh, and in this ad they're asking if the Democrat can even make it four more years in the White House.
I look at Joe Biden, I don't I he does not look well to me.
And I don't wish illness on anybody.
And people hear me say that, and they probably think I'm full of Adam Schiff, but I'm not.
I mean, I really don't wish any illness.
He's very old, and he shows it.
There are older people that are so cognitively sharp and with it, it's unbelievable.
I've met people a hundred years old that have energy, stamina, strength, physical strength, mental acuity, are cognitively as sharp as they were when they were 40 and 50 and 30 and 20.
And then there's others that you know they begin to slip and lose it.
I'm beginning to worry about Linda lately.
Uh, just kidding.
New York Post is speculating on possible things that uh jacked up Joe might be on tonight.
Uh, but anyway, why why wouldn't Joe?
If Joe doesn't, if Joe's not taking anything, why wouldn't he agree to a drug test and put the issue to rest?
He also runs the risk that if he's jacked up and the country notices he's jacked up, they're gonna say he needs to do this, take off seven, eight, nine days, whatever it was, and hide and not do his day job and train for a 90-minute debate and all that time, and then this guy shows up that we don't see every day, a different guy shows up.
That's gonna look really weird.
And Americans are gonna begin to wonder, what are they doing behind the scenes?
Americans are fair and smart people.
Uh private doctors of the rich and famous telling the New York Post that VIPs often use drug cocktails and other treatments to give themselves an edge before they take the spotlight for a big event.
What the hell do people what would you ever take?
I wouldn't even know what to take.
I would I I wouldn't even drink Red Bull.
I'd probably get too jacked up and jittery.
But anyway, it can include everything from pepti from a peptides infusion for a boost in brain function and Botox to avoid a sweaty brow, Adderall for enhanced focus, and even sometimes a shot in the butt.
I'm not sure what the shot in the butt's all about.
But postgraduate students, medical students, people that work in banking, financing, wall street type, big real estate moguls, they need that energy without the side effects of caffeine and illicit drugs.
And anyway, so apparently peptides, small amino acid chains that naturally occur inside the body.
Like I know friends of mine, I will not take HGH.
I will not take testosterone.
I have friends of mine that takes, you know, they microdose it because it gets you more jacked up and stronger faster and in better shape faster.
I've forget it, I'm doing it naturally.
Those things have actually been proven to have side effects, and you know, we'll see we'll just see what happens.
But I think it will be noticeable.
And, you know, people say, well, Hannity, you've been saying that he's a cognitive mess.
He's been great tonight.
Great tonight.
Let's see how he is next week.
Because he's gonna be back to regular old cognitively impaired Joe.
You know, and then, of course, you know, just like the 51 former Intel officials organized by Wink and Tony Blinken.
I saw today, you've got 16 Biden donating economists warning that Donald Trump's policies will ignite inflation.
No, the 20 plus percent rise in inflation happened since Joe Biden's been president.
Also watching next week as the House schedules a vote on whether to jail Merrick Garland.
That may take place as early as tomorrow.
We're still waiting on that Supreme Court decision on immunity.
We expect we will have that tomorrow.
Probably I would assume the justices didn't want it out ahead of time.
New York Times polls showing that Democrats and their back lawfare campaign against Trump has backfired, as the New York Times Siena poll released this morning shows Donald Trump now leading by six points.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
And Trump's lead would register voters at six points, likely voters four points.
Rasmussen has him up by ten.
Nate Silver is saying that it's, you know, a two out of three percent chance, only a third chance that Biden wins and two thirds chance that uh Donald Trump wins the presidency.
You have a CBSU gov poll showing Trump's support among African Americans doubling since 2020 alone from 12 to 24%.
You know, it's that's a pretty big number.
Uh then, of course, I think the big issue facing this country is Joe Biden's open borders.
He has created a clear and present danger for the entire country.
He's also showed nothing but ass kissing weakness when it comes to Iran and North Korea and Russia and China, and he surrendered in the war on terrorism.
I think these are all issues that should be brought up tonight by President Trump in the time that he has.
And regardless of all the trick trap questions that fake Jake and fake news CNN and fake Dana are going to bring up here.
A top DHS official wouldn't say whether Biden's open borders makes America more vulnerable to a terrorist attack.
Well, do we not see it with all the murders and rapes that have been happening by Joe Biden's 11 million plus unvetted illegal immigrants?
You might find this interesting.
The New York Slimes is going to deploy 29 fact checkers to monitor tonight's debate.
You know, that means they're going to just try and attack Donald Trump.
Uh let's see.
Oh, there is an ad that will uh run tonight focused on the murders by Biden's illegals.
And that ad should be seen by Americans.
So if you're watching the debate, I assume you'll see that too.
A Biden illegal who shot two cops calls the crime no big deal.
Really?
Because they shot cops all the time in his home country of Venezuela.
That was in the New York Daily News.
The House votes to withhold Alejandro Mayorcis' salary.
This guy should have been impeached.
He has lied to the country.
Joe lied to the country about borders.
He lied about inflation being transitory.
He lied about Hunter's laptop.
He lied about never having once spoken to his son, his brother, or anybody for that matter about their foreign business deals.
Never mind the report that we've been pointing out since yesterday.
This is an NBC news report that at least 50 Biden illegals, you know, in the country.
The Biden administration admitted this week that 150 of the 400 illegal immigrants brought into the country by an ISIS smuggling ring have been arrested.
What about the other 250?
If it's only 150 out of 400, they keep saying 50 remain missing.
Where are the other two fit?
Where are the other 200 then?
And that comes as ICE agents arrested eight men in Tajikistan in New York, Philly, LA this month over suspected ties to terror.
Joe Biden granted a visa to a close family member of Syrian dictator Assad.
You just can't make this up.
Well, tell this to Jocelyn Nungray's mother and her grandfather.
This little 12 year old girl brutalized under a bridge, assaulted for two hours before being murdered.
Or tell it to Lakin Riley's family.
Or tell it to Rachel Morin's family, or tell it to the family of the 13 year old girl raped and videotaped being raped in broad daylight in a park in Queens and New York.
Yeah, those are the issues people want to talk about.
Not 2020, not insurrection, not democracy in peril, not retribution.
In other words, all the things that fake news CNN will bring up ad nauseum tonight.
Anyway, 800-941 Sean.
