Hour two, Sean Hannity Show.
It's all free.
It is eight hundred nine four one.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, serious questions now have emerged as it relates to the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump.
I know we got rid of the head of the Secret Service, Ronald Rowe of the Secret Service, testifying earlier today, promising accountability of the Secret Service and personnel.
If they violated any protocol following a review, he talked about how the roof used by the shooter shouldn't have should have had better coverage.
You think he testified?
Ram Paul is going to join us in a minute.
He testified to Ram Paul that the shooter evaded detection by law enforcement within 90 minutes of warning.
I mean, this these are unforgivable mistakes.
130 yards.
Here's how it went down.
But really, my question is how often has this happened at other rallies where there's a half a dozen pictures and 90 minutes of people talking about a suspicious person?
I just can't imagine this real common.
So, Senator, at rallies, there there are people that come to the attention of law enforcement for a variety of reasons.
Uh and uh you know, if they come to our attention for some other activity that might, you know, put it a little bit uh uh hey, we probably need to go check that individual out.
Um this happens, and that's why we we attempt to locate them.
That's why it's important for us to try to find them.
Uh and it's important to have the information.
And so local law enforcement did their very level best to try to locate them.
They did provide us the photos 30 minutes prior.
It's just he evaded any detection by law enforcement.
I couldn't believe, too, that he testified to John Corning that the Secret Service's uh counter drone systems had technical difficulties until five o'clock that day.
Meanwhile, the shooter apparently flew his drone three separate times.
Now, Ronald Rowe, um, I'm not blaming him.
I thought he was at least far more transparent than the former head of the Secret Service that has since resigned, but he showed a reenactment of the shooting and he was very angry, saying he just does not understand why there wasn't better coverage of this rooftop.
I mean, the idea that this was a sloped roof is insane.
And I'm speaking as somebody that fell off a roof nearly three stories uh when I was in construction.
Uh I could tell you uh I was on a real sloped roof.
Uh that was not a slope roof of any kind.
And they the Secret Service was on a roof that had a much higher pitch, which made it more insane.
Let me play a cut of Senator Ted Cruz on whether the Secret Service denied requests from the Trump campaign for additional security.
I happen to know for a fact and have confirmed this is true.
Listen.
So I I'm reading from the Washington Post, July 20th, 2024.
Secret Service said to have denied requests for more security at Trump events.
The opening paragraph, top officials of the U.S. Secret Service repeatedly denied requests for additional resources and personnel sought by Donald Trump security detail in the two years leading up to his attempted assassination.
Uh, according to four people familiar with the requests.
Is that right that repeatedly the Trump detail asked for more resources and repeatedly Secret Service leadership turned that down?
That that is not accurate, Senator.
Uh assets are requested.
There's a process that is made.
Um How many requests did the did the Trump team or the Trump detail ask for?
Uh I can get you that number in a Q. If you don't now you don't know now?
So I can speak to the ones that reported in the Washington Post and we can go through them if you like.
But you don't know how many how many requests there were.
In general, how many requests since 2021 that the former Trump detail has made a request for asking?
You've had two weeks.
You had a spokesperson put something out that is false on its face.
By the way, did you approve this statement when it went out?
Uh I I don't know if I did or didn't.
As this spokesperson is, is he still employed?
Does he still have a job?
So he lied on behalf of the Secret Service.
He still has a job.
Did your predecessor, the former director, does she approve the statement?
Senator, uh our comms team they they send out statements, uh, they do deconflict them and they put them out.
Did she approve this statement?
Uh I don't know if she did or did not.
And you don't know if you did either.
I I don't recall re approving it, Senator.
Will you commit to provide this committee in writing?
Every written request for additional resources from the Trump campaign or the Trump detail and every response from Secret Service.
Senator, I will commit to providing responses and getting you the information that you are seeking.
Joining us now is Kentucky Senator Ram Paul is with us.
Uh Senator, great to have you.
Before I get to this, uh, we keep hearing the name of Kentucky Governor Andy Bashir as a potential VP pick of Kamala Harris.
Uh he clearly seems to be auditioning for the job.
Uh I'm not sure if Kentucky is going to leave Donald Trump behind and vote for Kamala Harris, but what is your thoughts on Andy Bashir?
Andy Bashir is sort of an accidental governor.
Uh, you know, his dad was governor for eight years.
He really hasn't done much of anything, but he went around the state with a bunch of checks from the federal government and pretended like he was passing out, you know, his own money to everybody.
Did that for four years, and uh lo and behold, uh people, some people at least like free money, and he became the you know the big face of the free money.
But the reason he's not of any value to Kamala Harris is that uh there's no chance.
I mean, uh Trump got sixty-two, sixty-three percent.
He'll get that much or more.
And Bashir, you know, I think is nothing more than an accident, wouldn't bring along Kentucky for him.
He has you know, maybe a better chance with either Pennsylvania governor or really the North Carolina governor was actually the one state they might have been able to flip, and he's been taken out of the running.
So I don't know if there is anybody out there that they can pick that would flip a battleground state.
I don't think there is either.
We keep hearing Mark Kelly's name.
What do you think of that choice?
Do you know him from the Senate?
You know, they say that Arizona, Trump's quite a bit ahead right now.
So they could do it to try to get back Arizona, you know, since I think they're losing it right now.
But Mark Mark Kelly's a ninety-five point five percent uh uh supporter of Joe Biden, and he's bad on the border and he's bad on the second amendment.
Yeah, there's nothing he brings to the t uh to the table ideologically that is appealing.
Here's a a resume that he you know on paper he looks good.
He was an astronaut, you know, that kind of thing.
And so on paper he looks good.
I don't believe he would bring a lot of dynamism or charisma to the to the campaign trail, and I think he would be basically with a voting record that's probably about as progressive as Kamala Harris.
It was interesting to hear the uh words of Michael Moore, uh, who represents the the pretty radical left, which it represents a big part of the Democratic coalition these days, uh is saying that the Democrats could slip up big time if Kamala Harris took a more centrist position.
And then he specifically went after Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and said that j picking Josh Shapiro could lose the state of Michigan to Donald Trump.
And Shapiro said it's anti-Semitic to join the boycott disinvestment uh I'm sorry, divestment and sanctions movement against Israel and to convince them to stop their apartheid behavior, he said.
He also cruelly compared peaceful college students to Ku Klux Klan because they were calling for an end to the slaughter in Gaza and actions like these will diminish the Arab American vote for Harris and depress a large swath of the youth vote throughout the country.
I think the Democrats are in a bind here because they have a significant amount of their voters who are pro Hamas.
I mean, we're not talking about just people with a mixed opinion about the war along the war went on or it's going on.
You're telling people they're just uh out and out uh pro Hamas.
And that position is so extreme and so radical that many Jewish Americans who you know, two thirds of uh of Jewish Americans typically have voted Democrat historically.
And uh that's gotten a little bit less over time and Trump's done well with the vote.
But I don't know how you can be a Jewish American, even a liberal Democrat Jewish American, and and see these um mobs with Hamas gear on talking about how great Hamas is and that you know the the the massacre October 7th either didn't happen or was justified.
That kind of rhetoric I don't know how you remain in the Democrat Party.
So you could see him trying to pick Shapiro to get some of that back, but I actually don't think they'll pick Shapir because I think they're afraid of losing their Hamas wing.
You said in today's hearing we now know local law enforcement officers were suspicious of the shooter 90 minutes in advance of the shooting and you said there are two glaring issues that we need to focus on.
First, you know, why were the the grounds the AR AGR grounds and the roof left unattended and why was that building the shooter's perch left outside the perimeter.
By the way the perimeter Senator when they say that it drives me crazy because the perimeter would be any range in which a a primary in this case President Trump, the person you're protecting is in range of being killed that would be the perimeter.
You know just because it's outside the venue doesn't mean it's outside the perimeter.
Right.
The other thing about the perimeter though is if that building is inside the perimeter you can't walk around with a backpack that's not checked.
This guy's walking around with a a large backpack in all likelihood the the AR fifteen is slightly or partially dissembled in the backpack.
He's got this big monster backpack he's cut carding around he's got a rangefinder.
All that stuff wouldn't have gotten through a perimeter because there's magnetometers.
So he couldn't have gotten in with that but really even outside the perimeter for 90 minutes there there's half a dozen pictures of this guy.
Nobody had the wherewithal to stop him it's it's sort of like Keystone cops.
Nobody can find this guy they spot him over and over again.
They spot him with the backpack.
The last picture of him is at 605 and he's on the ground with the backpack and at 606 he gets on the building but realize he gets on the building this building is connected to four buildings by roof line where he climbs up the pipe is four buildings away from where he takes a shot.
He climbs up a drain pipe at 606 and he's got to run the distance of four buildings and he's got to get down on his stomach then he's got to reassemble his gun and then he's got to crawl to the to the the the eaves to the the tip of the the the slope there does all of that in four minutes.
The crowd sees him at 606 and says guy guy on a roof at 608 police see him.
I I don't think they saw him with a gun.
They see him on the roof.
But it's 608 when you see a guy on a roof wouldn't you think you would be it would all points bulletin red alert everybody would be screaming and it would and Trump would have been taken to the stage three minutes till the shots ring out they say oh well it's interoperability problems.
And it's like we've we've struggled with this for years and we just don't know what to do and you know what my response to that is go go to Best Buy and buy two hundred walkie talkies and give everybody a walkie talkie put them in a box when you're done and take them to the next venue and pass them out again.
Everybody should have a broadcast on them that is broadcasting.
It shouldn't be texting because you've got your hands on a gun and you're looking through a scope but there should be like a red alert there should be at least one alert that stops everything but everybody gets a broadcast and they're like interoperability really all it means is having some device that has a broadcast ability that is there for the ultimate emergency.
At 608 they absolutely knew enough they should have stopped it 90 minutes before until they found this guy.
They should have just said we're going to be delayed 90 minutes before all you do is think the president's uh motorcade is delayed or something and you delay the thing until you get that guy.
If they had a waited they'd have found him he was still on the ground and he still had a gun in the knapsack.
You know somebody just had to do their job but so many and for me the buck stops with the Secret Service.
They're in charge they can't blame local law enforcement They are ultimately in charge.
The roof was unattended, and ultimately that's the responsibility of the Secret Service agent in charge, and that person can't be in charge anymore.
Well, the guy also had a rangefinder, which I find extraordinarily odd.
And if I hear about the slope roof one more time, Senator I fell off a roof nearly three stories and died.
I mean, I could have died that day.
I mean, I didn't close come close to dying.
Uh I did dislocate my arm and broke my radial head and busted up my face pretty good, but short of that, it did knock some sense into me.
That moment I became a conservative.
However, uh, so I know what it's like to fall off a roof, a pitched roof, a real pitch roof.
That's not a slope roof, Senator.
I promise you.
Yeah, and I heard you were way more handsome before the fall, too, Sean, but uh, you know, you gotta live with it.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot, Senator.
I appreciate your friendship.
I really do.
No, but on the rangefinder, going back to the rangefinder, at 541, that is actually relayed.
So they're saying, oh, we don't have all the information.
At 541, the local police does tell the Secret Service, and this is acknowledged, Central Command Post, Secret Service knows there's a guy with a rangefinder.
That to me is obviously you can't shoot a guy with a rangefinder.
You can't kill him, but you can stop the proceedings until you capture him.
And he should have been stopped and detained.
This is still before the speech starts.
These are just easy things to do.
Stop the speech until and it's and then they would tell you, Oh, yeah, well, we have six other pictures of him because we've been following him, and he looks like he's sizing us up.
I think at 426, one guy reports, I'm leaving.
I see somebody's parked in my space over here.
And I see the guy is sizing up the building, learning about your position.
He's looking at you and learning about that's an extraordinary amount of suspicion.
Nobody does anything.
Nobody walks up to him and says, Hey guy, why are you looking at the officers?
Hey, and what's in that big huge backpack on your back?
You know.
Well, a tragic comedy of theirs.
Uh Senator, I know a lot of people are getting conspiratorial, but this is a mistake of historic proportions.
We can't have this in the country.
I hope you'll stay on it.
Uh, we do appreciate your time as always.
Senator Rampall, great state of Kentucky.
Thank you, sir.
Thanks, Sean.

You know, I mentioned earlier about Michael Moore and Michael Moore's radical position, and he thinks that the biggest screw up that Kamala Harris could make is if she becomes a centrist, which is impossible.
I mean, she's trying to back off so many of her positions.
I mentioned earlier, she's flipping and flopping and flailing all over the place.
And then he said something that really caught my attention.
And he does represent a big portion of this radicalized new Green Deal, Socialist Marxist Democratic Party of today.
And then he talked about Kamala Harris and the potential of her choosing Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro to be her running mate.
And he says that if that choice is made, that Harris may actually be handing Michigan to Donald Trump.
He said Shapiro said, and but why?
Because Shapiro did say, rightly so, that it's anti-Semitic if you join the boycott divestment and sanctions movement against Israel.
Remember, Israel was was a victim of terror attacks.
What part is this idiot Michael Moore not understand?
The murder, the rape, the torture, the kidnappings, the beheadings.
You know, how ignorant, you know, can this this bozo be?
And then he went on to say uh Shapiro is cruelly compared peaceful college students.
They didn't look so peaceful to me.
Uh to the Ku Klux Klan because they were calling for an end of the slaughter in Gaza.
Actions like this will diminish the Arab American vote for Ham for Harris and depress a large swath of the youth vote throughout the country.
Wow.
I mean, what does that say?
Here's what he said.
Here's another thing that could happen.
Vice President Harris appoints Josh Shapiro as her vice presidential candidate.
And this too may result in losing Michigan.
Shapiro said that it's quote, anti-Semitic for anyone to join the boycott divestment and sanctions movement against Israel in order to convince them to stop their apartheid behavior.
He has also cruelly compared the peaceful college students to the Kukux Klan because they were calling for an end to the slaughter in Gaza.
Actions like these will diminish the Arab American vote for Harris and depress a large swath of the youth vote throughout the country.
I really hope somebody is listening to me right now.
Wow.
I'm listening.
This is the radicalized new Green Deal socialist Marxist extremism.
Kamala Harris is the head of the squad.
She's the most radical of all of them, as we've been going over in great detail.
All right, let's get to our busy phones.
Uh let's say hi to Etha, Washington State, next Sean Hannity Show.
Hi.
Yeah, hi, Sean.
Um, listen, um, okay, the bottom line is that uh Republicans need to go on offense.
I can't umbrage with the fact that they keep on calling the evil satanic communist left, the uh media, they keep on saying that Trump is weird, dance is weird.
Well, let them look at themselves.
Uh, their motto in the liberal city of Portland, Oregon, is keep Portland weird.
Their motto in Austin, Texas, is keep Portland weird.
So Donald Trump needs to just uh put out a t-shirt that says keep Portland weird, keep Austin weird, keep Trump and dance weird.
How do you think, and I have no problem uh with RuPaul or people that want to watch those shows?
I really don't.
That's up to them.
I believe in liberty and I believe in freedom.
But do you think Americans, because Kamala Harris apparently went on that show?
How do you think a lot of Americans would describe that?
I I think that they're disgusted.
To be honest, Sean, I mean, I I I lean like uh, I mean, I'm a conservative and I love Trumpy.
But um, you know, I I you know, to be honest, do what you want to do.
I don't give a flying fig, but I don't want to pay for it.
So I I just I don't think that it's playing out.
And I'm a ride share driver in the city of Portland area.
Let me tell you this, my friend.
People, a lot of play, a lot of people who are Democrats, who I pick up in my right share, they're not happy with the fact that they feel that they're disenfranchised.
They voted for Biden, and now all of a sudden a bunch of people are uh they're they're voting for uh you know the the oligarchs in the Democrat Party are are saying, oh no, your vote is doesn't matter.
Now you have to you have to accept Kamala.
If the only thing they've got is to use, oh, the that's a weird ticket.
I don't think that the one thing that this ticket can't overcome, whoever Kamala picks, the one thing they cannot overcome is her radicalism.
And that is that is why I am staying focused like a laser beam.
Cause I know that I'm gonna be in this alone with the exception of a few of my conservative brethren on the airways.
And and I know they'll do their jobs.
I don't listen to other shows, I don't have time to listen to other shows.
But short of that, it the media mob, and now we know big tech are going to s try and protect and suppress the truth about who Kamala Harris is.
And for the next ninety-eight days, I'm going to make it my mission to make sure that every American, I'm deputizing everybody in this audience, take the information that I'm giving to you on a daily basis, please.
I'm asking, and make sure that your friends and that your neighbors and that your coworkers and that your dopey relatives and ever anybody else that you run into when this conversation comes up, because the country's paying attention to this election, that they are l at least aware of Kamala Harris's extremism.
And they need to know her her positions.
My hope is that before early voting starts in 48 days in Pennsylvania.
My hope is is that people are fully aware of how radicalized she's been.
That's my hope.
I think we can be successful if we if we all stick together and do that.
What do you think?
Oh, I completely agree.
And I came I'm I'm a refugee from California, and we moved to Washington State.
My husband and I, um, because no income tax in in Washington State, although it's kind of blue.
But um I I I lived under her as a senator, as a um uh attorney general.
They destroyed the beautiful, gorgeous city of San Francisco.
She and Gavinism, they single handedly destroyed that beautiful, gorgeous city, and she is a radical leftist, Marxist, evil satanic communist left.
All right, Etha, thank you for a good call.
We appreciate it.
Uh 800 nine four-one Sean is a number.
You want to be a part of the program.
Uh let's say hi to Bernie.
He's in Syracuse, upstate New York.
Bernie, how are you?
Glad you called.
I bet you're a fan of the Orangemen, aren't you?
I most certainly am.
And you know, the other claim to fame in Syracuse is that we were the home of uh Joe Biden when he went to school here and graduated 85th in a class of 70 in law school.
Oh, ouch.
Okay, I stand corrected.
Thank you, sir.
Uh anyway, glad you call.
A little cold up in upstate New York in the wintertime for me, but uh I've been up there many times for many of my kids' tournaments when they were young.
I didn't exactly enjoy my time, but uh the food there is awesome.
I think in Syracuse, it's in Syracuse, don't you have a is it a Dino's?
What is the name of that barbecue place?
Uh Dinosaur.
Dinosaur barbecue.
Oh, I have the I have a great story.
I should I it's it seems self-serving this story, but it's not.
Okay.
All right, I'll tell you a story about dinosaurs in Syracuse.
My daughter was young and and she and my son was playing a a a national tournament up there.
And she actually got in because she was like an an on-site alternate.
She did, you know, she got crushed because she was like nine years old and playing against twelve year olds that were nationally ranked.
But anyway, she became quite a good player in her own in her own uh life.
And anyway, so we're up there, and so I take my Son and his friends.
We all go to dinosaurs, and she's just kind of sitting next to me, bored out of her mind.
And there's this nicest waitress of all time.
A young girl.
She literally gets down on the ground with my daughter and starts playing with her and brings over all sorts of like coloring stuff and really cool stuff.
And just a story I'll remember.
And anyway, so I I leave, I paid the bill, and and I left her a good tip because I felt like that was so far above and beyond.
You know, for her to do something that nice to my daughter.
And anyway, we are walking across the street.
This is when my daughter wasn't embarrassed to hold my hand.
She wasn't at that age yet.
And you know, she's holding her daddy's hand, and you know, all of a sudden this waitress comes flying out of the the restaurant, you know, throws her arms around me, gives me a big hug, and I'm like, uh, is everything all right?
And she just said, Thank you.
And she said, she actually said to me that, you know, the money that I left is like gonna pay her rent that she wasn't able to pay like in the next day or two.
Wow.
And uh it was just uh so I remember it like it was yesterday, and then I actually took some more money out of my pocket.
I said, Here, take this.
And my my as we walked away, my daughter just turns to me.
I'll never forget what she says.
She goes, Daddy, you're a good daddy.
And it was one of one of a moment that I'll never forget with my daughter.
Now, I'm not patting myself on the back.
I'm just telling you a true story about that place.
But it there's two locations.
There's one in Syracuse and there's one in Harlem.
Yes.
And when we went there, the food is phenomenal.
And I just I loved it.
And um, and that's my big story about Syracuse.
Well, thank you.
You know, it's it's funny.
Since you left New York, that left us with five conservatives in the state, and I just happened to be one of them.
Yeah, you should you you need to start thinking about you know, plan B at some point.
Trust me, I am.
Um what's going on?
Well, uh, you know, JD Vance, obviously, they're raking him over the calls for comments that he made years ago.
The best part about it is he's owning everything, whether it was against Donald Trump, whether it's about uh childless cat ladies, it doesn't matter.
He's owning it all.
On the flip side, you've got Kamala Harris now.
I've been listening to your show for years.
I've heard every clip that you've played of her, I've heard you know, other radio show hosts play clips of her, and now she's trying to deny it all.
She's trying to say it's all deep fake, it's all uh AI.
Uh I you know, where does it end with this this uh I I I haven't heard her claim it's AI or deep fake.
I just hear her flipping and flopping and flailing, and I went through her list of flip-flops earlier in the program today, and we'll do it again tonight on Hannity.
I mean, now she's just saying, Oh no, I don't believe what I believe just three years ago.
It's ridiculous.
Yeah, there was uh there was a story on the on the news uh the other day that said uh that she's claiming some of this is AI.
She's full of Adam Schiff, and I'm sorry, they're all real.
She said it.
We have the tape of it, we have the video of it.
It's not deep fake, it's not AI, it's real.
So she can deny it all she wants.
And look, this is what I'm contending.
For all of you that might be a little nervous about this election, and you're getting caught up in the day-to-day and the emotional roller coaster.
This is what I want to tell you.
If America knows who she is and gets to know her record, that we are we are vetting her every day, and I've got a lot more to go.
That I'm promise you she can't win.
Excellent.
I promise you, she cannot win.
So that's why deputizing so many of you is important.
All right, my friend, next time you go to uh dinosaurs, I can't believe I said Dino.
Dino was on the Flintstones.
Anyway, thank you, my friend.
All right, quick break, right back.
More of your phone calls coming up 800 nine four one Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
When the world gives you insanity, he gives you common sense solutions.
This country needs a course correction immediately.
Find your station at Hannity.com and listen three hours a day.
All right, let's get back to our busy phones.
We have less than a minute.
Howard in Maryland, Howard, make your minute count.
Hi, sir.
Let me just tell you briefly, I'd like to see uh President Trump get back on the offense.
I've got an idea that I haven't heard anywhere else before.
I think he should throw this whole thing about the debates back in her face and propose that she pick a moderator, he pick a moderator, and that they go at it.
I love it.
And I hope he picks me.
I'd love to be the moderator to ask Kamala Harris questions.
I'd love every minute of it.
I think that's a great idea.
I'll suggest it.
I'm not sure I'm going to get it, but if I if if I got the opportunity, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
That'd be wonderful.
All right, my friend.
Well, you know what?
Prayer and fasting.
800-941 Sean.
Good call, my friend.
Uh, since the start of the Swords of Iron War, and we've been watching Israel fight back today in Lebanon, and as they should after the murder and the slaughter of innocent children on a soccer field.
You know, we have seen the death and destruction in the holy land, but for more than 40 years, uh, we have proudly partnered with a group that's been on the ground in Israel, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
And within hours of the October 7th terror attacks, they've been there every day, and they're protecting the vulnerable.
They're feeding people, they're building bomb shelters.
Uh they are providing housing assistance, uh, medicines for the elderly.
Uh, they're telling stories now in their series that they've put out about the the you know, faces of iron as they call it.
Survivors like Keith, he's the head of the Eshkol region on Israel's southern border with Gaza.
I've been there.
Now Keith protects the people in this region.
On that fateful day, an armored security truck donated to Keith's community by Friends of the Fellowship, were able to stop bullets from terrorists firing at Keith as he drove into danger.
And this only happens because of supporters like you and groups like the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
They desperately need support more than more than you can imagine.
Whatever you can do to help them, uh, please go to their website.
Also you'll hear more stories like this one and show your support for Israel in their time of need as they battle radical Islamic terrorists that are dedicated to destroying them.
And somebody please tell Kamala Harris that we're using the word radical Islamic terrorism.
Anyway, the website is support if org.
That's support IFCJ one word.org.
