And I'm Ted Cruz.

Sir Dow, verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
Thanks, Scott Channel.
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, uh we're watching this insanity of the Democratic Party.
You don't need proof proof of citizenship to vote.
Why not?
Why wouldn't you need voter ID and signature verification and integrity in an elections?
Why would they fight so hard for something like this?
Why is it that important to them?
I can only think of them having nefarious intentions.
We'll get into that in a second.
Uh I want to go back to the issue of Joe Biden and this war that is basically broken out among the Democratic Party and dividing them and the push of many Democrats, the Congressional Black Hawk is now fully behind Joe Biden.
Uh AOC, the squad seems to now be lining up behind Joe Biden, and yet so many others are pushing hard uh to get him out.
Uh then we had the issue that came up yesterday, and it really is alarming and startling that Biden's physician talking about a neurologist visiting the White House as part of their annual examinations.
Turns out that Biden's physician is a friend of the family and may have been may have been involved in some of the family business.
But this Parkinson doctor made ten visits to the White House, according to Logs.
Apparently, he too is a Biden uh a Biden donor.
Marine Jean-Pierre just outright refused to answer the press's questions about uh this yesterday, and then later in the night, because it was such a backlash from even their friendly media state-run media mob that has no choice at this point.
We've known about this forever, but to call them out on it, I mean they went absolutely bonkers on Karin Jean-Pierre, so they they had to do something.
They finally release a a statement last night.
It was during my my TV show, uh, regarding the the background of this cognitive expert.
And and yet Joe Biden steadfastly refuses a cognitive test.
A lot of these questions could be put to rest with a simple cognitive test that Donald Trump has taken.
I assume he'd probably take again, but he took an ACE because uh the media demanded it.
The person that gave him that test was Dr. Ronnie Jackson.
And he'll join us in a second.
Well, let's go back and this is me through the 2020 campaign.
This is just what from March through October or June through October of me pointing out in the lead up to the 2020 presidential election all about Joe Biden's cognitive issues.
Everybody I talk to or I run into in my daily life, they ask me about what what the hell's going on with Biden?
You know, you're like the only one reporting it, but we can see something's off.
Just think for a minute.
It's the hardest job in the world.
And the mob, the media, they just they allow this guy to just get away with answering no questions.
They let this guy get away with putting a lid on his campaign at 910 every single morning, every other morning.
And Joe doesn't want to do events.
It's unbelievable.
How does it how do you say you want to lead the country and you don't have the strength, the stamina, or frankly, the the cognitive strength to to take on the rigors of what is the hardest job in the world?
We will ultimately get the government we deserve.
And either you're gonna vote for a guy that clearly is struggling cognitively, that has no strength, no stamina is not up to the job.
I wouldn't hire Joe Biden to run a gas station or a Mini Mart or a 7 Eleven or a McDonald busy McDonald's, forget it.
You know, what is that again that order?
Fries and and a shake.
Okay.
What now hang on a second?
What's that order again?
It would be a disaster.
And we're gonna put give him the hardest job in the world to be the leader of the free world.
Does he have the strength, the stamina, the mental alertness and acumen for the hardest job in the world, the leader of the free world?
I don't see it.
I see frail and weak Joe Biden.
I really have I think they realize that if he had a fastball, it's long gone.
They're only two hours late, this press conference.
They're really they're supposed to start at 2 30.
Oh, 3 30, 4 30, 4 50.
Okay.
Can we talk about what's being discussed right now?
You want to take a stab?
I got a couple of things.
I mean, I don't think I I've been saying, and I'm very clear about this.
I I question whether or not Biden has the strength and stamina, the mental alertness, the mental acuity needed for the hardest job in the world.
He looks frail and tired to me.
Maybe maybe he needed a Hokoko and an epi.
Or maybe they're saying, Now, remember her name.
What's her name?
What is it?
Kamala Harris.
Anyway, and I qu even quoted Dr. Ronnie Jackson in October leading into the election, uh, his comments about Joe's cognitive state.
The uh former White House physician Donna d Dr. Ronnie Jackson, and I've been saying it, everybody I talk to or I run into in my daily life, they asked me about what what the hell's going on with Biden.
Well, you're like the only one reporting it, but we can see something's off.
Anyway, he actually said that he doesn't believe he has the mental capacity to handle the rigors of the presidency.
Now, just think for a minute.
It's the hardest job in the world.
He said Dr. Jackson did he's not up to the job in a conference call.
All right, he said all of this.
Dr. Ronnie Jackson joins us, sir.
How are you?
Hey, Sean.
Doing well.
Thank you for having me.
Well, you've been right, and you've been on this show many times, and you've taken some heat for stating the obvious and what was transparent.
And this is the this is the great cover-up.
This is the great Biden cognitive cover-up, and it and everybody's involved, everybody in his personal life, everybody in the White House, everybody in his campaign.
They hit him in the basement during the 2020 campaign.
The media mob, they have been complicit.
They they have seen exactly what we've seen, and they know our reporting.
I've been playing tapes, you know, for four solid plus years, and they've ignored it, and then all of a sudden it got so bad that they couldn't ignore it anymore.
What's your reaction?
Well, you're right, Sean.
It's it's an absolute cover-up across the board in this uh press secretary, KGB or P or whatever, whatever name, she's a box of rocks as far as I'm concerned.
She does not have the skill set necessary uh to to manage this crisis.
And she's proved it every day.
And then they have uh, you know, Dr. O'Connor, who's the physician, who should be up at that podium explaining to the American people what's going on with the president.
You know, they said he doesn't have Parkinson's disease, and they say he's not taking medicines for Parkinson's, but they're very specific about that, which tells me that he has something very similar.
He has a Parkinson's like disease or illness, and he's probably being medicated for that.
But we don't know because there's no transparency, right?
And for her to stand up yesterday and say there's some kind of security issue, that's crazy.
That's insane, right?
They need to tell us this guy is a neurologist who's uh board certified and specializes in Parkinson's disease and movement disorders, and he was waived in to the residence clinic, not the not the clinic over in the Ozenhour executive office building, where the actual White House Medical Unit's at, where everybody else is seeing he was waved into the president in the first family's private medical space in the red that is that is right in the White House.
I've been in it, by the way.
Yeah.
Yeah, you you've been there when I when I when I used to work there, it's right next to the map room.
It's on the ground floor of the White House, directly below the president's bedroom.
And he was waved in by the physician to the president, Dr. Kevin O'Connor.
So they can't explain to us, they won't explain to us why the physician to the president waived this guy into the private clinic of the pre a president and the first family.
He was either seeing the president there, or he was seeing a member of the first family, or he was discussing the president's care with the physician to the president at the time.
And they need to give us the answers to that.
You know, they they they said it's a security reason.
Absolutely ridiculous.
It's public record that this guy was there, that he was waved into that clinic.
If he saw someone besides the president, all they have to do is come out and tell us he did not see the president.
But they won't do that because the fact is he most likely saw the president.
Well, I think the mo f the fact is we have two things going on simultaneously.
We now know that the White House physician is a family friend that might have been involved in family business endeavors, according to James Comer, and we need to get to the bottom of that.
Because in many ways that could represent a conflict of interest, or he could be compromised.
That's issue number one.
And apparently this this specialist, as it relates to Parkinson's, is also a Biden donor.
Well, that means he may have a conflict of interest, and it seems to me part of the overall larger cover up, which is that everybody in Biden's life a they have to know.
You c you will never convince me that they didn't know.
They all knew they all covered it up.
Why didn't he use the big boy stairs anymore on Air Force One?
Why did he need people surrounding him walking to and from Marine One?
Why doesn't he do press conferences?
Why can't he do a Super Bowl interview or layup interview?
Because he's not up to it.
And it's been that simple, and they've known it since twenty twenty, which is why they let him hide in the basement and get unvetted throughout the entire campaign, because they just want to defeat Donald Trump at all costs.
You're absolutely right, Sean, and they surrounded themselves with people that were protecting him since he was running for office before he was actually president.
And Kevin O'Connor, Dr. Kevin O'Connor is one of those.
He's a civilian.
He was at the White House for eight years on active duty.
He worked for me actually.
He was at the White House and he took care of Vice President Joe Biden.
During that time he became part of the Biden family.
I mean, it's unbelievable, especially with Jill Biden.
She she really considers him a son.
And so whenever he left, when he retired from active duty, went to George Washington University, and the president left as vice president and was uh you know wasn't wasn't in vice presidency anymore.
When he came back as president, they brought Dr. Kevin O'Connor, who's a civilian now, back in because they know well we're finding out now that he was already he's he was working as a business partner in in the Biden crime family, most likely.
We're gonna figure we're gonna we're gonna uh get to the bottom of some of that soon.
But they brought him back because he's a trusted confident that will say or do anything to help with the cover up, and that's what we're seeing right now.
He's a big part of this medical cover up.
I know that there are doctors out there.
There's always a doctor feel good.
You see it with public figures like uh in the case of Elvis, the accusations were made and Michael Jackson propofol or or milk as he used to call it, uh, where doctors will give certain people whatever they want, they'll say whatever they want, they'll cover up whatever they want.
They don't have ethics, they don't have integrity.
Um, you know, one of the things when you tell the story about when you gave Donald Trump the cognitive test, he aced that test, which is a tribute to him.
He I think he's willing to probably take one again if he had to.
And but the the thing is is you can see from Joe Biden, I don't think he'd get past question five.
Well, we're at a point now, Sean, where th he doesn't need the cognitive screening test.
He needs a full battery of actual cognitive tests.
We're way past the screening exam.
Uh this this man uh is you know, everyone in the world can see something visibly wrong.
He is broken.
There's something wrong with our president, and they need to level with the American people.
Dr. O'Connor needs to get up on that podium and tell us what's going on, and we need to do something about it because it's a national security issue.
We should not be messing around right now with the commander in chief.
The whole world, NATO's here right now.
They're watching this play out.
They think that Joe Biden is an absolute joke, but it terrifies them as well because they know that they don't have uh America's not gonna have their back if they need us because we don't have a commander in chief.
We don't know who's making the decisions in in the White House.
And God forbid you know, it it sounds like it might actually be Jill and Hunter Biden now.
How terrifying is that?
I I I just really worry about all of it, and it seems that many have circled the wagons, and then you have this other group of people, and then they have this intramural turmoil, and now the country is gonna be flooded with phony polls.
Oh, Kamala beats Trump.
Uh see, that's why that's why Joe needs to step aside for the good of the country.
Uh and meanwhile, he's been this way for four years, but uh cognitive decline is degenerative.
It gets worse, it never gets better.
And it's a scary proposition, but it's been that way since before the last election.
And it was scary before the last election.
We all just choose to be so evident that all men and women are created by the thing.
Oh, you you know the thing.
God, the creator of every thing.
Spoken, spoken by the first black female president, apparently.
But uh, yeah, it it's uh it it's absolutely uh it's insane right now, Sean.
We have to do something about it.
I mean, you know, the Democrats uh are uh are uh feeding on themselves right now, which is entertaining to watch.
But uh I'm I'm worried about our country.
Uh and uh I'm worried about this man uh being in charge of uh sending troops into harm's way and things of that nature.
We we we just we we can't have it.
Yeah.
Well, we always appreciate you being uh on the program and we appreciate your honesty, and you're ahead of the curve, and like me, you took a lot of heat for being honest with people.
And uh for that we thank you, Dr. Ronnie Jackson, Congressman Ronnie Jackson.
By the way, what's gonna happen on this vote?
You know, on the Save Act, I mean, I hope that you know we the Republicans are gonna get together and pass it.
But I heard a little bit of your monologue earlier.
Why would you not want uh or why would you possibly want uh the potential for illegals uh to vote in our elections?
But the reality is Sean, you know as well as I do that they've planned this all along.
I think that we should put in there's some stuff in there that uh doing this.
We should make it clear to everyone out there if you're an illegal immigrant and you vote and we find out that you voted, you will be immediately deported.
Immediately, no questions asked.
Uh, because we need these people to know this consequences.
That's a big part of the problem.
Why do why don't Democrats want to insist on that?
Why why why would they go against such a a simple voter integrity measure like that if for only wanting it for nefarious purposes?
That's the only reason I can think of.
Dr. Jackson, thank you, my friend.
We appreciate you being with us.
All right, quick break, right back.

Sean Hannity is on.
All right, 25 now to the top of the hour.
Toll free.
Our number is 800 941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we're watching House Democrats in their effort against an election integrity bill that would require voters to prove citizenship.
I can't believe we're even after watch this.
But we're watching it.
At the top of the next hour, Senator Cotton will join us.
We'll talk about that vote.
And we're expecting in the final hour of the show today at some point Biden might have a press conference with NATO leaders.
If so, we'll uh we'll bring that to you as well.
Want to remind you since October 7th, we have seen the death, the destruction, innocence lost in Israel.
Now for more than 40 years, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, they have been on the ground in Israel, and within hours of that war starting, and every day since they've been feeding the hungry and protecting the vulnerable, hundreds of thousands of displaced Israelis.
These attacks continue in the north with Lebanon and Hezbollah, and in the South, Gaza, Hamas.
But they are resilient and they're survivors.
And they bravely now are sharing their stories in a series that the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is calling the faces of iron.
Survivors like Danny.
His family was burned alive on October the 7th by Hamas terrorists.
Now Danny, a commander of the volunteer fire and rescue in his own community.
He couldn't do a thing.
As his daughter's house was burned down, killing his daughter and her husband.
The support of this audience or the IFCJ has helped those survivors remain steadfast and strong.
Thank you for all your support.
Now, if you want to hear more of these stories and show your support for Israel in their time of need, while Joe Biden surrenders in the war on terror, just go to their website.
It's one word, support IFCJ.org.
Support IFCJ.org today.
Now, let me uh introduce this is my interview with former President Trump, his first interview talking about the debate post-debate and all the fallout afterwards.
And tonight, chaos is brewing the Democratic Party as calls for Joe Biden to drop out are growing.
Joining us now for an exclusive interview on the phone, former President Donald Trump.
Mr. President, great to have you, sir.
How are you?
Well, thank you very much, Sean.
I'm fine.
Thank you.
Let's go back to the debate with you and President Biden, because immediately you could notice his voice was raspy, but beyond that, within minutes I could tell this was not going to be a good night for Joe Biden.
What was going through your head at that time?
Well, it was a big evening, and you could feel a lot of energy.
Boy, energy like you haven't felt in a long time.
Uh, on any of the debates.
I've done a lot of debates, and we've had great success with debates, but this was something very special for whatever reason.
It just seemed big.
And when I got to Atlanta, and this was at CNN headquarters, and there was a lot of excitement.
There were trucks, I call them the 10 million dollar trucks.
That's with the antennas all over, and very incredible equipment.
I'm looking at things that are uh, you know, it's just more of a scene than it normally would be.
And it it really was that way right from the start, right from the the moment they introduced us, and then they introduced him and introduced me, and I walked out on SM, and he looked extremely pale, to put it nicely.
And I don't know, maybe uh it was a good makeup job, or maybe it wasn't, but he was a very pale-looking man.
And when he started to speak, I don't know, I thought his voice was uh weak.
I I didn't know exactly what was happening.
It was strange.
I I do have to say that the uh CNN uh Jake and Dana were really uh they were pretty good.
They were they really uh they were I thought they were fair.
I thought they were fair in the questions, I thought to him to me.
But uh it was a strange evening.
I will tell you it was a strange debate because uh within a couple of minutes uh the answers given by him were they didn't they they didn't make a lot of sense.
Well, let me ask you this.
I I think some of the worst moments for President Biden were when he wasn't talking, there was like this blade blank, vacant stare, and it's like he was checked out, and I've run a montage of it.
Uh d w when you were speaking and you'd look over, did you notice that too?
Or you know, I was thinking about what I was saying.
I wasn't looking over at him almost at all, except when he went a little bit haywire.
I didn't look at him at all.
And I've very disappointed in him.
He's the worst president in the history of our country.
We've never had anything like it, what he's done to our borders, what he's done to our our country, inflation, the the people that he's hurting, he's destroying social security, destroying social security.
And people are, you know, I'm just so upset with him as president, and so I wasn't really looking over.
I purposely were wasn't.
And I I did take a couple of peaks when he was in the midst of giving some really bad answers.
They weren't even answers, they were just words put together that had no meaning or sense.
Well, but for the most part I didn't really look over.
Since before the 2020 election, on radio and TV, I have chronicled the fact that Joe looked weak and frail and that he was a cognitive mess long before the election in 2020.
The media, uh I I call them state run media, Democrats, they're all acting shocked like this just came out of nowhere.
Is this one incident or is it you know uh is this is this something permanent?
I'm like, did they not notice the guy can't give a press conference?
Did they not notice that he no doesn't use the big boy stairs getting on Air Force One?
Did they not notice the plan to surround him as he walks to and from Marine One?
Um that he wouldn't do a Super Bowl interview, the a layup interview for any president really.
Um what part of his cognitive decline do you think they missed, or did they purposely cover for him in your view?
Well, they cover for him and they still are sort of covering, but now it's getting very difficult to do that.
And uh, you know, it looks to me like he may very well stay in.
He's got an ego and he doesn't want to quit.
He doesn't want to do that.
It just looks to me like that's what he wants.
I think Jill would like to see him stay.
She's having a good time.
I notice she's always seems to be having a good time, and I I'm hearing that Hunter is calling the shots.
So this isn't necessarily a very positive thing for our country.
But uh I think he, you know, might very well stay in, and if he does, uh nobody wants to give that up that way.
Do you, Mr. President, do you want Joe Biden to step aside?
Do you care?
Well, we prepared for him, but I don't think it's gonna matter.
What do you make of all the talk that if if Biden steps aside or is pushed out that it would be Vice President Harris?
Do you expect that much would change?
Well, I think that it will be her.
I think they are very concerned about the vote if it's not her.
They are very, very uh I mean they're gun shy, they don't want to do it any other way.
I've I've actually come to believe that's what they're going to do.
I think she's an ineffective person.
Uh she was in charge of the border, she's never been there.
She didn't do a good job, and she hasn't done a job on a lot of things.
So, but it would seem to me that from a political standpoint, that's who they're going with.
They're not even talking about alternatives.
And it seems that uh if if he gets out for whatever reason, and I don't think he wants to get out, uh, but if he gets out, uh it will be her.
Interestingly, he's got a lot of power because he's got the delegates.
You know, when you have the delegates, uh, unless he says I'm getting out, they can't do anything to get him out, other than the twenty-fifth amendment.
If they want to do it in a different route, it would be the twenty-fifth amendment, but uh, let's assume uh with not very much time left.
You know, there's not much time left, and then we can straighten out our country or make our we'll make America great again, right?
But there's not a lot of time left.
But I think unless they use the twenty-fifth amendment, which they'd use in a different sense, he has all the power.
He has the delegates.
He doesn't have to get out.
There's nothing they can do to get him out.
So he'll get the nomination, he got the nomination, and then uh he'll they'll have their meeting in Chicago, which, by the way, last week one hundred and seventeen people were shot and seventeen people were killed.
That was last weekend in Chicago.
And that's like uh that's like a war zone.
But they have their convention in Chicago, and they're obviously very proud of Chicago.
And I uh love Chicago.
I have investments in Chicago, but when you look at the crime in Chicago, when you look at what's gone wrong with Chicago, it's uh it's not a very good thing to be displaying right now.
One issue that pops almost at the top of every poll in the minds of Americans, well, really two.
The border and the economy.
Let's start with the border.
We have nearly eleven million unvetted Joe Biden illegal immigrants in this country from nearly a hundred and eighty countries.
Uh, but many from countries that have terror ties.
Countries like Iran and Syria, Egypt, Afghanistan, uh uh, Venezuela, Kazakhstan, ten uh with nearly nearly sixty thousand from China in just the last eighteen months, tens of thousands from Russia.
And I worry that this is now a a clear and present danger for the country, and that the likelihood the terror cells are probably already here is very high.
I I don't think I'm wrong.
I pray to God that I'm wrong.
I don't believe I am.
And the media, Democrats, you know, have ignored the issue and they've allowed it to happen, and Biden and Kamala Harris and uh Majorcus have all said the borders closed and the borders secure, but they brag about ending the policies that you had in place uh when they got into power.
Uh I think a preventable uh preventable problem.
Um I'm worried about our national security like never before.
Well, the one thing you haven't said tonight that you always say is that it's one hundred percent certain that we're gonna have a terror attack, and I agree with you on that.
It's one hundred percent certain.
I mean, we're letting terrorists into our I pray I'm wrong.
I pray.
At a level that we've never seen before.
Uh terrorists are coming in, and they're coming in, Sean, from mental institutions and insane asylums.
They're coming in from prisons and jails from all over the world, all over the world, not just South America.
They're coming in from the Congo and Africa, they're coming in from uh every part of the world, and uh some of these parts are rough parts of the world, and they're pouring into our country as prisoners, as mental patients, they're coming into our country and they're coming in also as terrorists, and this is poisoning our country.
Let me ask about the economy.
Uh I know that they said from the beginning that Biden's inflation, which they inherited one point four percent, it's up uh over twenty percent.
Twenty-five percent of Americans say that they've had to forego meals.
Sixty plus percent of Americans said that they're gulping water because of of Joe Biden's economic policies and Biden inflation.
Um how do you fix that and how quickly do you think you can fix that?
Well, we have to fix it fast, and what they're doing is the illegal migrants that are pouring into our countries, many of them are staying in luxury hotels all over our country.
They're being shipped up, you know, as we say now, uh every state is a border state, whether it's Idaho or Iowa or Ohio, it doesn't make any difference, they're all border because they're pouring through our country.
One of the stats that was incredible, I actually saw it on you first, was when they uh it was it came out that we're actually flying them in.
So it's not just a question of these people coming through totally unchecked and unvetted.
They're flying tens of thousands of people into our country, migrants.
And many of these people were not people that were welcome to stay in their countries.
They're coming up here, and when I originally said, I said uh they are not sending their finest.
Uh these are people that are coming from other countries, Sean, the w where the uh president, uh the whoever is running the country, including the dictators, they're sending them into our country.
And if you look at Venezuela, their crime is down seventy-two percent.
Their crime, think of it, down seventy-two, and ours is up.
And we're gonna have a new form of crime because these people are just getting comfortable.
They're just getting settled in.
We're gonna have a new form of crime, and it's called Biden Migrant Crime.
And that's it's a new category, and it's a very serious category, and it might blow all of our crime out the window because frankly, you could probably double when I told you those numbers in Chicago with 70 people 17 people dying this weekend.
Think of it.
Over over a weekend, over a three-day period, four day period, you had over a hundred people shot and seventeen people dead.
And that probably doesn't include the migrants, although I guarantee you there was some of that in there too.
We have a new form, it's this new category, and it's gonna be very, very serious for a long time to come.
And we have to get them out of our country.
We don't want them out.
They drop them out of their jails and prisons.
We don't want them in our country.
It's not sustainable by any country.
Uh let me ask you one last question, if I may, and I know this was last minute.
Thanks for thanks for calling in tonight.
Uh and I want to ask you about your VP choice.
Um how soon do you think you'll be making that choice?
Number one.
Number two, we keep reading that there is a short list, and on the short list, we hear names like Senator Rubio, Senator Tim Scott, Senator J. D. Vance, uh, Governor Bergham.
Um is that are those reports accurate?
Are there other people maybe people aren't paying attention to?
And when do you think you'll announce that?
Well, you know, we started off with a lot of people, and we have a lot of good people, as they call it, and we have a great bench in the Republican Party.
The names that you mentioned, absolutely they're under consideration.
And I haven't made final decision, but I have some ideas as to where we're going and a little bit, you know.
We wanted to see what they're doing, to be honest, because you know, it might make a difference.
I don't know.
I'm not sure that it would, but there are those that say Trump's waiting until he finds out what's gonna happen with crooked Joe Biden, and we'll see what happens with uh Biden.
But uh, you know, I think probably within the next week, week and a half, probably sometime.
I'd love to do it during the convention.
Uh, Mr. President, thank you for your time tonight.
We appreciate it.
Thank you very much, John.
Thank you.
All right, that was my interview with President Trump.
We are awaiting Joe Biden and NATO leaders for a press conference.
That could get interesting, and Senator Tom Cotton coming up in our final hour straight ahead as we continue.
Up next, our final roundup and information overload hours.
Hey, in a perfect world, you know, owning a gun would be all you need to keep yourself and your loved ones safe, but we don't live in that perfect world.
We live in this quote, new America, where even the most justified use of force to save your life, your family's lives.
Well, that can land you in a legal nightmare.
Let me tell you the story of Michael.
He is a father, active duty Air Force.
He was attacked outside of a nightclub, punched to the ground.
Uh, his life was in jeopardy, feared for his life.
He fired two shots.
It struck the attacker in the leg.
It didn't seriously injure the guy.
The jury acquitted him of attempted murder, but did convict him of aggravated batteries since a gun was involved in this, and he's not a U.S. CCA member.
And now he's spending uh twenty-five years behind bars and will be almost fifty years old when he's released.
Oh, great great opportunity to raise your kid from jail.
And I mean I share this story with you because the truth is just owning a gun for protection, you can still get in trouble in this new America.
