Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news round of information overload hour.
Here's our toll-free telephone number.
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, so many different facets to this story of picking Tim Walls, meaning Kamala Harris as her VP choice.
Radical, extreme.
Their policies are so in sync.
I I mean, honestly, it's like they're the same person.
They really are on every big issue.
From the border to law and order and defund, dismantle, no bail laws, and and illegal immigrants should get free health care and housing and uh you know, pretty much everything else.
And college tuition.
And then you go to the economy.
They both support this radicalized socialism, new Green Deal ism.
And then you go to law and order, and it's it's insane.
Then you go to foreign policy.
Why didn't they pick Josh Shapiro?
Well, that question was addressed by Van Jones of all people on fake news CNN, and he wasn't too far off the mark.
Listen.
What worries me is you see a lot of relief from the conservatives.
They were scared of Josh Shapiro.
The concern they were scared of a Mark Kelly.
They thought that would help define Kamala more to the to the middle.
You see a lot of rejoicing on the right.
That's not good.
Also, you've got some disquiet in the Jewish community.
Some people had their hopes up.
Maybe you're gonna get another shot at a Jewish vice president.
We haven't had that for two decades, and now that gets pulled away.
Is it just because he's a moderate, or is there some anti-Jewish bias here?
So the the party is still digesting this.
I think if you're a young uh Muslim or a young Arab or someone who's concerned about Gaza, it gives you a reason to stay excited about Kamala because that was going to be hard for the party to digest.
So you've got a party now trying to figure out is this good, is this bad?
And then he goes on to say you have anti-Semitism that has gotten marbled into this party.
He's talking about the Democratic Party, the Hamas wing of the Democratic Party.
You can be for the Palestinians without being an anti-Jew Jewish bigot, he said.
He said, but there are some anti-Jewish bigots in his parties.
It's admitting that.
And he said again that there's this quiet.
There has to be.
How much of what just happened is caving into some of the darker parts of the party.
I mean, wow.
Pretty powerful.
As we now are, you know, on pins and needles, knowing that the Iranians will probably follow through on their very real threat to fire more missiles directly from Iran into Israel.
And I would suspect that as as as many as hundreds of missiles they fired last time, that you're gonna see a lot more this time.
And I would imagine they're gonna embolden and resupply their proxies in the region, meaning this is gonna be a three-front war that Israel's facing in all likelihood.
You're gonna have Iran firing their missiles, then you're gonna have Hamas out of Gaza in the South firing their missiles, then you're gonna have Hezbollah in the north out of Lebanon firing their missiles, and you could even add a fourth front if you include the Houthi rebels in Yemen if they get involved in this and try and try and fire some missiles in this.
I mean, this and the last time this happened, that's when we discovered Joe Biden and Kamala Harris that they they would not stand by Israel in their hour of need.
They did help them defend themselves, okay.
Props for that, but then said, oh no, no, you should be very happy with the result, and you shouldn't retaliate.
Well, that's not how Israel rolls.
Israel has a retaliation response defense strategy, which is if you if you try to kill us, we are going to hit you back ten times, a hundred times, five hundred times harder.
And that's the only thing, that's the only language, unfortunately, that radical Islamic terrorists understand.
And then we have, of course, Kamala Harris, this newly discovered tape.
I think we're one of the first to run run it on TV.
Well, we need the courage to stop saying radical Islamic terrorism.
We need the courage to stop saying illegal alien.
This is madness.
Anyway, we got issues involving the media, their coverage.
Kamala Harris has had a free ride the entire time leading up to the decision to basically dump Joe Biden.
What involvement she may have had with she's never been asked yet about her positions.
They don't even have her her position paper up on her website.
He's not been asked a single question.
She she gave like a two or a word salad answer when the hostages came home the other night.
That's it.
She has not held the press conference.
She has not done an interview.
And it's the hide in the basement strategy of Joe Biden 2020.
And we've only got 91 days until election day and 42 days until early voting starts in Pennsylvania.
We've got all aspects of this uh covered.
And uh, we're always pleased and proud to welcome back our friend Joe Konsha, Fox News media contributor.
I think the best media analyst in the country today, who should have his own show.
He has a brand new book out.
It's on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
It's called Progressively Worse, why today's Democrats ain't your daddy's donkeys, and Aaron Cohn is back with us, an Israeli trained career special ops and intelligence veteran.
He served in the counter-terrorism space for over two decades.
He understands with moral clarity what is the real clear present danger of Iran, and I would argue the real clear present danger of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's open borders that Tim Walls supports, uh, which has allowed eleven million unvetted illegal immigrants into the country.
And we just discovered yesterday that what ninety-nine of them were captured and then released into the country, which is madness.
And then we had the breaking news story from John Solomon earlier today that we told you about.
So we've got, you know, uh one Pakistani uh uh illegal immigrant with ties to Iran was here planning assassinations, including that of Donald Trump.
Anyway, welcome back both of you.
Uh Aaron, let me start with you.
Israel uh obviously might be facing, you know, the the threat of uh the biggest threat that we've seen in our lifetime.
They've they've since the 48 UN partition plan, they have faced numerous threats.
67 well, they got but they had war in 48, but then 67 war, the 73 war.
They've had rockets being fired in for years.
They have these underground terror tunnels that have been built, but this is now an existential threat for against Israel and their very existence after the October 7th terror attacks that killed the equivalent of 40,000 Americans.
Yeah, Sean, uh well, it's good to be on with you.
And uh you you nailed it, you always do when you come in with these intros.
Uh, Israel is in one of the toughest and most dangerous uh times since the inception of the modern state.
Um terrorism is a completely different animal.
And I can tell you that what we've learned over the last 35 years in dealing with uh uh terror groups, it's going all the way back.
I'll take it all the way back to the 70s.
Uh Israel had to reinvent the terrorism wheel.
And that man looking at all the operations and everything Israel had been doing in the previous wars to figure out exactly how we were going to combat uh psychotic individuals looking to target civilians.
So they they even went as far as to lean on their behavioral scientists to come up with a better method of gunfight, uh, which became what was called behavioral based EQB.
So our special ops units are trained in.
And taking it to Kamala and taking it to uh Joe Biden, and they just don't understand the basics of the language of the Middle East.
In Hebrew, we have an expression.
And Roma de Brimbe Baavit, Which means they don't speak Arabic, and that's a metaphorical way of putting it.
The Arabs understand strength.
The radical extreme Arabs, the radical Islamists only understand strength, and so Israel right now is gearing up to really prep that iron dome, which we've talked about, which is what Iran is going to attempt to probably overwhelm.
And that uh we can't stop every missile.
We can't stop every we can't turn over every stone.
Uh Israel's strength really relies in that preemptive ability and maintaining that military superiority through aggressive action.
And so what I think is gonna end up happening is I think we're gonna probably not see some quiet work that's happening by the idea through their intelligence uh of getting out and into aggressively attacking uh various Houthian Hezbollah in Iranian backed Iranian and Ira uh uh Syrian and Iraqi logistical targets, uh continuation of special operation.
Israel just doesn't have the luxury, Sean, to cater towards the this political left mess, and I don't typically get political, Sean, but what I'm seeing here is craziness, and I know Israel's at a point.
I've never seen Israel get treated so poorly by an administration.
I've never seen this kind of restraint uh uh when there's hundreds of hostages, not to mention Americans, and I really believe that Israel is going to get after it uh because they have to.
And the moment Iran signals, you're gonna see Israel go into a blitz mode.
However, the upside is that Israel will likely end up targeting Iran's nuclear program.
Uh, that's an excuse to go after that, that's the building of that facility.
I don't I don't know if it's operational yet.
I don't know if it'll happen tomorrow.
But uh Israel's just not playing around, Sean.
They don't have any time to mess with this left wing woke nonsense.
This is national survival for us right now.
Let's get your take.
How is it that Kamala Harris has picked the most radical person imaginable?
Uh I guess uh uh a political soulmate, if you will, and on issues of immigration, on issues of the economy and energy and law and order, uh, and abdicating America's role on the world stage as the leader of liberty and freedom and surrendering against radical Islamic terrorism.
Uh, how does this play out, Joe Kanchan?
And when will she ever give an interview or answer questions?
Oh, she wants to plead the fifth all the way to November 5th, Sean.
She will, if if if possible, never answer one question, not do any press conferences.
Remember, when she ran in 2020, didn't do one press conference, right?
Also didn't receive one Democratic vote, by the way.
And now in 2024, as a nominee, not one vote and not one question.
I mean, this is Soviet kind of stuff that we're looking at here.
And I Sean, guys, I I swear, 61% approval.
That's Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania, a 50-50 state, and he's above 60%, and they somehow go down this route.
So that sounds you here, if you listen really close.
Champagne corks flying across Mar-a-Lago as we speak.
Because thin walls, I mean, those images you cannot get away from.
June of 2020, those not so peaceful protests, Minneapolis, whole city blocks nearly burned to the ground, five hundred million dollars in damage, more than fifteen hundred buildings damaged or destroyed.
The police station, like the Nakatomi Plaza at the end of diehard, where when burned that down completely.
And Kamala Harris cheered this on.
Look this up.
Stephen Colbert, she does an interview with 2020, and she says this is not going to stop.
She cheered this on.
Tim Walls enables.
It's not gonna stop.
It shouldn't stop.
We're not gonna stop.
That's right.
Beware, take note.
Exactly.
Minnesota's uh Senate report, Sean, October 2020, quote, this is the Minnesota Senate report, mind you.
Quote Governor Walls had the ability and duty to use force and law enforcement to stop criminal violence, but he did not, unquote.
And then play that clip sometime of Walls with Anderson Cooper in 2019, after he got elected governor, where he said he wants to invest in a ladder company to allow migrants to climb over Trump's border wall wall, excuse me, and enter this country illegally.
I could go down the line here, but boy, this was the stupidest pick she ever could have done.
And Donald Trump said thank you on Truth Social after he heard about it because boy, I mean, talk about bad instincts.
This is going to be a game changer.
I'm shocked they're this stupid that they're this out of touch.
Aaron, I know you don't involve yourself that much in American politics, but I will tell you as it relates to Israel and the war on terror.
When you heard Kamala Harris say we should have the courage not to say radical Islamic terrorism, what were you thinking?
I'm like, well, then who attacked us on 9-11?
Who attacked Israel on October 7th?
Well, Sean, you're uh you you certainly seem to be waking up uh uh a dormant side to to my lesson political uh activity.
I can tell you that uh uh I get more voiceful and more boisterous uh as I see the radicalization of the left.
I'll tell you where it hits me.
It hits me on the domestic threat level and what we saw in 2020 and what we saw with this emerging pro-Hamas pre-Palestine movement, the the absolute uh uh aggressive growth of the anti-Semitism and the um and placating towards uh Hamas and these flags popping up and uh FBI director uh uh uh Ray coming out saying I'm seeing blinking flags everywhere,
you know, talking about back uh in October, and now with the attempted Trump assassination, all of these left-leaning psychotic policies, in my opinion, are what's causing a very aggressive emerging domestic threat.
And it's on every level.
And Sean, I train law enforcement around the country.
That's why I get paid.
I train SWAT teams in behavioral based response for high threat uh uh shootings, that type of thing.
And these law enforcement agencies, everybody's looking around going, what is going on?
And that the the emerging of the Well, let me let me ask you both Aaron and uh Joe, can you stick around a little bit?
Do you guys have uh any other commitments?
Are you okay?
I'm good.
All right, 800 uh 941 Sean.

I 25 to the top of the hour.
The rally now has started in Pennsylvania.
We'll dip into it.
Josh Shapiro, who got passed over.
What does it say about the Democratic Party?
That in all likelihood, one of the main reasons he was passed over.
You have a must-win state, Pennsylvania.
What does it say that the fact that you have this radical anti-Israel pro Hamas wing of the Democratic Party who are being catered to in this decision?
And that Kamala Harris goes with her her most radical instincts and picks the most radical and extreme governor in the country.
That agrees with her on almost every radical position she has that is extraordinarily dangerous.
What does it mean when Van Jones has to admit this?
But you also have anti-Semitism that has gotten marbled into this party.
You can be for the Palestinians without being an anti-Jewish bigot, but there are some anti-Jewish bigots out there.
And there's some disquiet now, and there has to be.
How much of what just happened, talking about choosing Tim Walls, is caving into some of the darker parts in the party.
Saying this about his own party.
You imagine Republicans if if Donald Trump caved in to such a radical group like this and picking anybody for any position.
You know, so that's going to have to be worked out, he said.
Then he goes on to say it's gonna have to be talked through.
But I will tell you if you have Josh Shapiro say, you know, what I give if this stamp might.
Well, what is he supposed to do?
I mean, he probably has political aspirations himself.
He got passed over.
You have people like Van Jones admitting that they caved into some of the darker parts of their party, what he's calling the anti-Semitic and anti-Jewish bigots out in his party.
Some of them coming to he's a Tim Walls, big supporter of Congresswoman Omar.
Well, does uh do we get any more radical extreme and anti-Israel than her?
And the things that she said, I should remind you on TV tonight.
Want to remind you, don't forget, file your taxes, do it right, do it on time, follow the law, and if you're expecting a refund, chances are you do.
But if you file for an extension, it's probably because you know, you owe.
Maybe you've owned for several years.
Maybe you've actually decided not to in any way, you know, uh deal with the IRS and just said, ah, forget it, and think it the problem's gonna go away.
No, it's never going away.
Now the extension deadline is almost here, so what do you do?
Well, you need to call the only company I trust that I recommend our friends at Rush Tax Resolution.
Now, you're crazy to try to deal with the IRS on your own.
That's nuts.
The IRS does not mess around.
They can revoke your passport, drain your bank account, levy your wages.
If you're a business owner, well, behind on payroll taxes, they can come and shut down your business and come after you personally.
Now, so many of my listeners have called rush tax over the years, and guess what?
Their tax nightmares are over.
Call now, toll-free rush tax resolution at 800 299 8077.
That's 800, 299-8077.
Mention my name, you'll get a free IRS transcript investigation.
Other firms, by the way, charge up to $1,500 for this.
Now, Rush Tax will tell you upfront and for free if they can help you.
And they'll only take your case if they know they can help you.
800 299 8077, 800 299-8077 on the web.
It's Rush Taxresolution.com.
Let's dip in and listen to Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania, who got passed over for this radical.
I'm going to continue to pour my heart and soul into serving you every single day as your governor.
Thank you.
And I'm gonna be working my tail off to make sure we make Kamala Harris and Tim Walls the next leaders of the United States of America.
That's right.
Let me tell you.
Let me tell you about my friend Kamala Harris, someone I've been friends with for two decades.
She is courtroom tough.
She has a big heart.
And she is battle tested and ready to go.
Josh Shapiro speaking at Kamala Harris's rally, and Tim Waltz is about to join.
Anyway, I guess uh that they they just got dipped out of that, but anyway, it is what it is.
But this is who the Democrats have now chosen.
All right, let's get to our busy phones.
Uh, we're also waiting for Tim Walls and for Kamala Harris after Josh Shapiro, I guess they gave him as much time as he wants.
I'll tell you what this is.
This is a a DNC speech that'll bore the living hell out of you.
Believe it or not, we will be in Chicago.
The only thing I really care about is getting in and out alive.
Number one.
That's our top priority.
Number two, and Linda said she is making it very clear.
She will not be seen with me any place anywhere.
Uh anyway, let's get to our phones.
We have Mark in Minnesota.
Mark, how are you?
Glad you called.
Hi, Sean.
I'm sorry, a long time listener.
I think I was cutting teeth when I first started listening to you, and I'm now 70 years old.
Oh, wow, thank you.
Just you bet.
My pleasure.
Uh just real quick.
Um, back in the COVID, I had to work through, I was in essential business, and then Tim Walls decided to give a reparation back to all of the people that you know.
And it was like $541 for the two years or two and a half years I worked through the COVID crisis.
It just wasn't worth it.
And the other thing on my mind is the he had a $16 billion surplus.
And he decided he's going to give most of that for reparations to the marijuana users that were arrested when in the past.
I just I don't get it.
So just a couple things there for you to chew on.
Well, I gotta tell you something.
You know, for the people that know this guy best, you know how radical he is.
You know, I I haven't even gone through a lot of his record today that I really should have, and maybe I've been a little negligent in this because I just I just have not, I mean, there's so much to his radicalism and his background, but you know, one of the things that I went through that really stood out uh is what has happened to your state.
And, you know, for example, we I have I have a chart I can show it on TV tonight showing Waltz's uh failed tenure as governor.
Uh and it shows under Waltz, Minnesota became a high crime state for the first time ever.
Those are crimes, murder, aggravated assault, robbery, rape, burglary, uh, motor vehicle theft, larceny and arson.
Under walls, you know, student achievement tumbled even as spending on schools skyrocketed.
I mean, spending went up, you know, by a third or more, and and results went down precipitously.
And both reading and math.
I mean, it went down like 15, 20 percent.
Under walls per capita GDP in Minnesota fell below the national average for the first time ever.
Under Walls, increase in energy costs have far outstripped the national average.
Under Walls, Minnesota has joined New York, California, Illinois, New Jersey, as a state that people of all ages are fleeing.
I mean, have you noticed that yourself?
I mean, the people that are most supportive of them, AOC, Bernie Sanders, uh, Congressman uh Omar, and Jamal Bowman.
And that's who Kamala listened to.
And then, of course, what Van Jones is talking about, the anti-Jewish bigotry problem they have in their party.
I mean, that's sad.
You know, it's a shame because Omar's district is 100% Somalian, so she's gonna be there forever.
Um it's just unbelievable.
I moved up here from Indiana to work for a Suiton Air Airlines 14 years ago.
If I knew how democratic this state was, I'd have never relocated here.
Well, I I by the way, I appreciate you listening for as long for a long time, and uh I really do because I get to do the job I love because of you, but these are such consequential times.
If you've been with me that long, have you ever felt the sense that this is an inflection point for the country and the world?
I really feel I I'm feeling it like I've never felt it before.
It's like we're beating a dead horse, but we'll stay out there and just keep striving, you know, like Trump did when he got his ears shot.
Let's go, let's go.
You know, come on, America, step up and let's go.
I mean, that is really, really well said, my friend.
Thank you.
And uh I hope you're doing well.
Hope everything's good in your life and you're having a good time.
You know, it's interesting.
Today's scripture came from James.
You'll be interested, you can share this with your pastor.
It's on I have a Bible lap.
Blessed is the one who preserves under trial because having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those that love him.
And the other one was, you know, who by taking thought can add a single minute to their lives.
You can't.
I mean, it's just God is in control at the end of the day.
Sometimes it's hard to just acknowledge that there's something much greater than us in this universe.
Uh anyway, Henry, Pennsylvania.
Henry, how are you?
And uh how do you feel about the way that your governor was treated?
I know he's being a good soldier out there.
I don't think he I don't think he I can't imagine he's happy about this.
It's an interesting question, and thanks so much for having me on, Sean.
Um I definitely appreciate your work for all the listeners and then for the country.
Um definitely uh you're no question a patriot for us all.
Um so your voice is definitely heard and uh gives us all some what to think about.
Uh I've lived on both sides of PA.
I was raised in the city of Philadelphia.
I went to college in Pittsburgh, so I've seen like both sides.
Uh PA is a big state, so um, those are very different places, but it's just interesting.
Like Governor Shapiro uh obviously was a prosecutor, similar to uh Kamala.
I hope we said that right.
Um nonetheless, um basically it's interesting.
They build careers on uh really uh allegedly prosecute uh hopefully uh im implementing the law and and punishing uh those who commit crimes.
And to see Governor Shapiro uh punished for his faith potentially, I mean they really put nicknames on him that I don't even wish to uh necessarily um repeat uh on air or even in private conversation.
I myself am Jewish as well.
Um I know that the governor released a statement quoting uh Pierre Cavos, um uh the ethics of our fathers saying um that you don't have to finish the job, but you have to keep working, which was a nice idea, but like ultimately whether he gets a second thing, whether he gets a cabinet position or in the future just runs for himself.
It was just very interesting.
And then you look at just like the extreme change that um the vice president went from not being the first eliminated from the primaries back uh when she ran for president um to now being this just w heralded in uh favorite without question for everything and just championed by everybody.
Um I I look at this VP pick of hers, um, and aside from the chaos that ensued in Minnesota um during a lot of um the the rampages um that occurred in that state uh and throughout the country, he I I saw, and I think you said that he uh and it's a true part question, and I appreciate you letting me uh let me ask.
Um he served in some branch of the military, I think it was the National Guard, and just like as a party that isn't always necessarily so n so outwardly supportive.
I I don't necessarily how know how that's gonna appeal to to the extreme left, um, but that he was brought in to represent because he his policies have been um nothing but extremist.
Um so it does fit in unfortunately with the current DNC platform.
Um, but it just it's just confusing to look at his track record um and how do you get to that from the military service background.
Like my background um working um in uh creating uh jobs, good paying jobs across America, um, and helping build infrastructure and getting people tax cuts with the solar industry.
Um it's just very different.
So I don't know how you can go from one extreme to such another.
And I mean, once thank you, and and I like the bottles popping.
I mean, it really seems like they just isolated any moderate and anyone in the center.
I appreciate your call, my friend.
We're gonna take a quick break, come back.
All right, so still no Kamala Harris, still no Tim Walls.
Uh well of full uh coverage of this tonight on Han and A9A's turn.
Let's go to Nancy.
She's in Minnesota.
We've had a lot of Minnesota calls today.
Uh, what's your reaction to the uh choice of your radical governor to be uh Kamala Harris's VP?
Hi, Sean.
Hi, how are you?
Hi.
Good.
How are you?
Um, I just um I've been I was born and raised here all my life, 70 years old, and uh it's a beautiful state, and I'm kind of hoping this is a good thing for the Trump campaign because all of us uh true Minnesotans uh know uh what a disaster this state is right now.
Uh he um just wild away, I don't want to say swear word anything, the eighteen million dollars that we had in excess a year or two ago.
Uh we each got a whopping 230 dollars for that.
Um he is we're a sanctuary, you know, city, state.
Come on up and have your uh abortions, come on up and have your transgender.
Um, the vast majority of outstate Minnesota, um, if it wasn't for the Twin Cities, would be red.
Well, uh, it's sad when you look at his track record.
I mean, it is he is Kamala Harris.
They're they're political soulmates.
And they I don't see any real area of disagreement.
And what's what's interesting is this is not how one makes a usual or a typical VP choice.
And uh there's never been a ticket this radical, this extreme, this out of the mainstream.
Uh, it looks like some the one thing that's certainly factored in picking walls over over Shapiro had to do what what everybody's been saying that he happens to be Jewish and he practices his faith.
Um, and here we are on the verge of war as as Iran is threatening to, you know, fire more missiles into Israel, and they could be fighting a three or four front war, and you know, even Democrats have to acknowledge that anti-Semitism and anti-Jewish bigotry is in inside of the Democratic Party, and they seem to have won out in Kamala Harris's mind.
Uh, you know, does it matter to me that Josh Shapiro just went out and gave a full throated defense of both of them?
I mean, it's meaningless to me.
What choice did he have?
He didn't really have a choice.
I mean, he could have not done it, but I I I even found him, you know, shifting positions a little bit on issues.
I I I I there's got to be a story here.
I wonder during this meeting that took place this weekend if he was asked to somehow moderate his views, especially on the issue of Israel in light of the pending attack of Iran against Israel.
And I wonder if may, you know, there could be a story behind this, and I'm speculating.
I don't know for sure, but Van Jones is right.
You know, it's that you know how much of what is what what happened today is caving into the darker parts of their party.
That's his party.
Why is he a part of that party if he sees this?
