Well, we're coming to your city.
We're going to play our guitars and sing you a country song.
We'll all be in flying higher than a jail liner.
And if you want a little bang in your yin yang, come along.
And I will work to pass the first ever federal ban on price gauging on food.
And Joe Biden, I believe, will go on the Democratic Mount Rushmore with FDR, with President Kennedy, with President Truman, and with LBJ.
Women, we're not without electrical, without not allowed, not without electoral.
Hard to believe, but we're only 75 days away from the most important presidential election ever.
Yeah, we are coming to your city.
Going to play our guitars and sing you a country song.
From coast to coast.
From border to border.
From sea to shining sea.
Sean Kennedy is on.
All right.
Thank you, Scott Shannon.
And thanks to all of you for being with us.
Write down our toll-free telephone number.
It's 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
And we're 75 days away until Election Day, 26 days until early voting begins in Pennsylvania.
Mail-in ballots go out even before that.
And by the way, today is the day of the big Linda Eating a Chicago hot dog.
We're going to live stream it on X. When are we doing that?
At like the final hour of the final half hour of the program?
535.
5-5.
Okay, so we'll do that.
And we're going to live stream it on X.
Now, I just want to say for the record that I've been very clear to you that I don't want you to do this.
You have, yeah.
And I have said, Linda, honestly, because you don't, this is not food.
I love to eat the local food.
In other words, not just the local food.
It's not like, I want to go to the finest Michelin-rated restaurant.
I hate those places.
You know, I go to them occasionally.
There's one steakhouse in New York, which you know, Del Frisco's, which I love.
Okay.
And, you know, I like a steakhouse occasionally.
Whatever.
I'm not the fancy food guy.
I'm just, that's not who I am.
I like to eat the burgers in and out.
I like to eat crown burger.
I'm shocked.
I didn't think because I like thin crust pizza.
Yeah.
What do you call it?
Cold fire pizza.
Love that.
And I just love, I love the local, whatever the local is.
You know, it's sad that, like everything else in New York, New York dirty water dogs, as they call them, or refer to them, are nowhere near the same as what they used to be.
No.
Where you'd have real sobrette with national cake, natural casing.
They're so skinny, and it's just like dog meat to me, and it tastes like crap, and it doesn't have natural casing.
And I want nothing to do with it, even with all the mustard and sauerkraut in the world, I gag on it.
But the good thing is, Chicago is not only a cleaner city and it's just a nicer city than New York in so many different ways.
But the cool thing about Chicago is they have stayed true to their hot dogs.
I mean, every dog we've had here, and look, it has mustard, it has relish, it has onions, it has tomatoes, it has a dill pickle.
Yeah, well, we actually posted a picture of the prepared hot dogs that they brought up.
And, you know, the plain one.
Oh, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That's not a Chicago hot dog.
It's got the poppy bun, which everybody likes.
And, but for the record, I am urging you and giving you a complete out.
I don't want to collect on this bet.
It was more for kicks and giggles because you thought you were being so smart.
And you were not being smart.
And I'm looking at the entire every airport in the eastern seaboard closed out.
And I had just spent six hours on a tarmac and got, you know, a graceful exit.
And then your bags got lost.
And, you know, it ended up being a disaster.
They got a first-class Reggie Chicago.
They did.
Better than me.
And then we had to have Kristen pick it up.
So, but we made this bet.
I said, well, I'm pulling away from the gate right now.
I'm on the tarmac.
I'm taxiing.
And I said, I kept you ain't taking off.
It's not happening.
I told you not to get on the plane.
And if you would have listened to me, you would have gone home and you would have been with your family instead of wasting your time getting annoyed on an airplane because apparently the flight attendant was yelling at a mother with a three with that was very rude.
A three-year-old was it?
She had three kids.
One was five, one was three, and one was like one.
Okay.
That's a lot.
That's terrible.
I mean, the best thing that any other and then I saw her on my next flight.
Did she remember you?
I was like, hey, Don.
I felt so bad for her.
No, and but I tell you what I would do in a situation like anything that I had, I don't care if it be candy or mints or I don't know, I'd paper, a pan, you'd give the kids.
I can hear you.
You be nice.
It's so much easier.
We're all parents.
We know what it feels like.
Right.
And there's no way you're going to keep a kid in a seat for five, six hours on a tarmac.
It ain't happening.
Oh, my God.
And if you expect it to happen, it's just unfair.
But, all right, if you really want to do this, you will not take my out.
I'm begging you not to do it because you drink these disgusting projectile vomit green and orange shakes, and it's just not what you eat.
Unlike Joe Biden, I will not step down.
All right.
All right.
Everyone else is mad at me for trying to give you an out.
I know.
Everyone's mad at me.
Just clearly shows that, you know, clearly you're on my side.
I'm on your side because I don't want you to do something you don't want to do.
I mean, if like, what if I bet you eat a maggot like, you know, what the liberals keep putting in hotels wherever conservatives are?
So disgusting.
They're so gross.
Oh, you're going to love the.
We got a lot of news today.
Now, Harris, who was, let's see, she's abandoned her position.
I want a ban on fracking.
I want a ban on drilling.
I want to fund ICE, even though I compared him to the KKK, wanted to defund them.
I no longer believe in defund, dismantle, no bail laws.
I no longer believe that we should have open borders.
I'm going to get tough on the border.
Vitanomics is not the greatest thing in the world, apparently, which she was recently telling us because she's going to deal with inflation on day one and the high price of groceries that you're paying right now.
I'm going to fix that on day one.
I'm like, well, why were you lying to us for the last three and a half years?
Why were you lying and telling us the border was secure?
Why didn't you go visit the border?
Well, I've never been to Europe either.
It's just the dumbest statement.
So she makes, she has on her website no policy positions, none.
And Harris Insiders are now trying to walk back their disastrous plan for price controls as she's now going to make her big debut at this convention tonight here in Chicago.
And anyway, AIDS have begun walking back her proposal, stated proposal, what, a week ago, to fight price control, to use price controls, which everybody, any with a half a brain, knows is a disaster.
Anonymous sources with the Harris familiar with Harris's thinking, they want to clarify the policy to the New York Times, saying that the price gouging ban would not actually take effect only in emergency situations and thus would not be likely to bring prices down right away.
No, they're not going to do anything to bring down prices.
They will result in shortages and a disaster.
Now, there's something that's going on here, and I want to get to all of this.
There's a couple of themes that have come out of this campaign.
And if I hear one more time from these people that they want to, we're the party of freedom and joy.
What does this mean?
I don't think there's anything joyful when you go into a grocery store and you can't afford what you were able to afford four years ago.
Nothing joyful about paying a dollar plus more for a gallon of gasoline.
Nothing joyful to families that have been victims of violent crime because of their unvetted illegal immigrants.
There's nothing joyful about victims of crime because they believe in defund dismantled no bail laws.
There's no joy in their foreign policy or them catering to the lunatics in their party.
But the Freedom Party, the Joy Party, they say they're freedom.
If I hear this one more time, I'm going to vomit, projectile vomit, whatever's in my stomach at any given moment.
They're the party that wants to confiscate your guns.
They're the ones that want no borders and take away your freedom and have take your money to pay for their housing, health care, and education.
The Freedom Party, the Joy Party, they want to take all your money, increase the price of everything you buy at every store you go to and every gallon of gasoline that you have.
They want to take your car, your gas-guzzling SUV out of your driveway as they fly around the world in their private jets.
They want to take that out of your car, put it in an EV that you don't want, that costs more, that pillages Mother Earth to get the minerals to build them, manganese and cobalt and nickel, and it makes your car heavier and less safe, according to studies.
They want to take away your choice to have a private health care plan.
She proposed that with Bernie Sanders, Medicare for All.
They want to take pretty much all of your money.
If you look at their tax proposals, small business corporations, which, by the way, will pass the cost on to you.
They want to tax, you know, even though you pay taxes on it, they want to dramatically increase the death tax.
They want to tax, they're thinking about a 70 to 80 percent tax rate.
And, you know, and then, by the way, they want to take away your right as a parent and give gender-affirming, quote, care to your children without even talking to the parents.
Why don't we just hand our kids over to Kamala?
You raise them.
Wall Street Journal editorial board calls it the selling of Kamala Harris and calling it the culmination of one of the most audacious bets in recent political history.
And in 100 days, the Democrats can turn the co-pilot of an unpopular presidency into the reincarnation of Barack Obama's movement of hope and change.
And on present course, who knows if they pull it off.
I can't tell you.
What's going to matter is if you, the American people, because the media is complicit here, and I keep telling you, we have the Kamala files, her and her own words, the Walls files, him and his own words, their radicalism, extremism, their dangerous policies in their own words available.
And you can share it on social media with your friends, your family, your neighbors, your coworkers, and strangers.
Because that is the message that they're selling here.
They're selling sizzle, but they're not selling any substance.
And this gets to the heart of where we are in all of this.
And I'll tell you one other thing.
And I think this is very important for people to understand here.
And as I watched last night, I was actually, for some reason, I was able to get into the arena much faster last night than I had been able to get in the previous two nights.
And so I had time to actually watch this.
And it's January 6th, January 6th.
I'm like, what about the 574 friggin' rights?
Everybody else was yelling the entire time.
I'm like, why don't we talk about all of that?
But 574 riots, Luiz Liz Cheney when you need her, and dozens of dead Americans, thousands of injured cops, bricks, rocks, bottles, Molotov cocktails, I remind you, billions in property damage.
They're not going to stop.
We're not going to stop.
They shouldn't stop.
And we're not, you know, we shouldn't stop.
I'm like, oh, is that it?
The only message that has come across, there's no policy substance significance except that AIDS, these mysterious, unnamed AIDS keep talking about changing their plans.
But all they are peddling here is we hate Donald Trump.
You don't want Donald Trump.
Even if it means voting in what is your own best interest, policies that would work for you, a world that would be safer because Kim Jong-un and the Mullahs in Iran and Putin and Chi fear Trump.
They don't fear Biden and they certainly don't fear Kamala Harris.
You know, so go vote against the world's best interests because you hate Trump.
You know, hating Trump is everything.
January 6th, democracy in peril, demagoguing, lying about Trump and abortion, lying about Trump and the economy, lying about Trump trying to steal his ideas about no tax for tips and saving Social Security and not taxing Social Security.
Let's steal every idea this guy ever had.
And what happened to Tim Walz wanting to build a 30-foot ladder if Trump builds a 25-foot wall?
You know, they want open borders.
They want you to accept inflation, accept a horrible economy, accept the radical Green New Deal.
They want you to accept no private health insurance.
They want you to accept open borders and with it, you know, people with terror ties and cartels and fentanyl and opioids and all of it, you know, because they want you to hate Donald Trump more.
We just hate Donald Trump.
This is what I hear in this hall every day.
They don't care.
They've never mentioned anything about the illegal immigrants that have killed Rachel Morin, that killed Lake and Riley, Jocelyn Nungari, or the list that I scroll on the screen every night that raped a 13-year-old girl in broad daylight in a park in Queens, New York.
Hating Trump is more important.
Homelessness, everywhere, poverty, everywhere, all of it.
You know, this is insanity because that's what is being sold here.
It is smoke.
It is mirrors.
There's no specificity.
There's no policies.
It's just, we hate that guy.
Don't you hate that guy?
I hope you hate him enough to vote against what it would ultimately be your best interest, secure borders, law and order, safety and security, lower taxes, next to zero inflation, lower gas prices and energy prices, and a world that respects America again.
But he's mean and he tweets out and he says inappropriate things.
Big freaking deal.
Listen to Linda on any given day.
And you will hear a lot of inappropriate things that I, you know, unfortunately, I have to use the dump button that we have.
We have seven of them.
And they're basically, they're not for callers.
They're for Linda.
And occasionally for me.
Occasionally, not that often.
By the way, this just in, the Supreme Court partially has reinstated Arizona's voting law at the RNC's request.
Supreme Court just today partially agreed to the RNC's emergency request to revive an Arizona law that strengthens proof of citizenship requirements for voting.
5-4 decision.
They reinstated Arizona's law mandating officials reject state voter registration forms of the person did not provide proof of citizenship.
Court's three liberal justices, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Judge Jackson, dissented alongside with Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
What a disappointment she's becoming.
But in voting to deny the RNC's other request, those four found themselves in the majority, bolstering the support from at least one Chief Justice Robertson Kavanaugh.
The RNC had demanded the reinstatement of the prohibition that prevents registered voters from casting ballots for president or in the mail if they didn't provide proof of citizenship, even if they used a federal level form to register where proof is not required.
Anyways, I mean, this is what we're battling as a country.
Anyway, 800-941-Sean.
All right, we've got so much to get to.
The final day, RNC, and the day that Linda, who lost her bet, although I have given her amnesty, I have given her a full pardon.
She does not have to pay back the bet, but she's insisting that she eats her Chicago hot dog.
So we'll stream it live on X coming up later on the program.
Congressman Mike Waltz will join us today.
And oh, our good friend Alice Marie Johnson.

All right, 25 till the top of the hour.
We're in Chicago.
Final day, thankfully.
And then we can go home to the free state of Florida.
Upon landing, I will get down and I will kiss the ground.
I feel like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz.
I want to click my heels.
I don't have red shoes, but there's no place like home.
There's no place like home.
I said it to DeSantis last night.
I really want to get home.
I want to go home to my free state of Florida.
He was laughing.
Anyway, the woke, oh, you're going to love this new advertisement we have.
They're awesome.
Now, you know, you think about everybody has a credit card, right?
Woke, extreme liberals, progressives, all together here at the DNC this week.
And I think we all agree their agenda is a disaster for the country.
It's the wrong direction for the country.

Anyway, that's COIGN.com today.
Well, one thing that nobody's going to highlight, Chicago police, they're very busy and they've done a great job and they've had to deal with the lunatic pro-Hamas wing that, of course, the Democrats need to vote for them.
And they have been, you know, keeping the Democratic delegates safe and people like me safe, although barely on night one, let's be honest.
Near a riot broke out when I got discovered entering the building.
But anyway, the rest of the city is going to hell in a handbasket.
You know, the weekend before, 30 people shot, five dead.
And Chicago's defund the police mayor, Brandon Johnson, has dispatched what's left of the police force to the convention center this week to keep Democratic delegates safe from these pro-Hamas protesters who threatened to disrupt the nomination of Kamala Harris.
The rest of the city is devolving into, frankly, just an outright war zone.
Washington Times pointing out that on Thursday, reported 22 shootings, six homicide deaths during the first three days of the DNC.
I mean, hello, does anyone know their names?
I don't know the name of one person.
And I'm just, except from the article, articles that I've read.
Nobody knows their names.
Nobody cares here.
And this is what they will do to the rest of the country.
All these liberal cities, San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, New York City, run by Democrats for decades.
This is what you get.
It's unbelievable.
And anyway, so far, the violence hasn't reached the convention site, located a few miles from downtown.
It has taken the police in some of Chicago's worst neighborhoods and taken them there.
Our officers are out there.
They're out there.
They're highly visible.
And we have offices not only along the corridors downtown, in and around the venues of the Democratic National Convention, but in our neighborhoods.
They say, but you know what they have on the streets of Chicago?
You know what's sad?
I actually have a driver that is a former Chicago police officer.
The greatest guy in the world.
Name is Mike.
That's all I'll tell you.
And Mike is the biggest foodie.
He might beat me.
What?
Mike?
He's big.
Yeah, he is big.
What do you think?
I'm going to hire 6'6.
You know, a little wimpy, you know.
No, I was giving you the sign for big.
And we got sensei here.
I mean, it's just sad.
Violent crime, highest level in a decade last year.
Arrest rate drops because they're coddling criminals like they do in other big cities like New York, L.A., San Francisco.
And it's just, it's so sad because people's lives are being upended.
We do have the rap sheet, by the way, on violent thugs that were bailed out thanks courtesy of Kamala Harris and her big bail fund tweet.
It's no secret she raised money during the rioting in the summer of 2020.
And meanwhile, her running mate was opening up the windows to the family home so that they can smell burning rubber as the cities of Minneapolis is burning.
He wouldn't call on the National Guard, but they wanted to smell burning rubber, the smell of freedom.
And this is about equity and inclusion.
I'm like, no, it's not.
It's about a bunch of radical.
And where's Liz Cheney?
Insurrectionists.
Anyway, the Minnesota Freedom Bail Fund paid, let's see, $350,000 in cash for the release of Christopher Don Boswell in 2020.
And this is according to alphanews.com.
By the time he had already served almost 16 years in prison after being convicted of two rapes, not one, two.
When he was bailed out, he's facing 10 felony counts, including attempted rape, sexual assault, kidnapping against two women.
By 2022, Boswell was alleged to be dealing meth, accused of beating up his then-girlfriend, also said to have forced her into having sex with other men.
He's now 41, was convicted of criminal sexual assault in the first degree, promoting prostitution, stalking an assault with a dangerous weapon last year over the 2022 incidents, scheduled to be released in 2042.
And I could just keep going on.
And the list is long, but they didn't seem to care.
You know, with all this talk and demagoguing about Donald Trump and abortion, Donald Trump has said he supports exceptions for rape insist mother's life.
He supports the Supreme Court decision that mandates that the abortion pill, which is basically a first trimester pill, be widely available.
He said he supports this being brought back to the states.
But, you know, with all the talk and the demagoguery going on, Yahoo is even reporting that the rate of abortions was up 10% in 2023 compared to 2020.
And they cite the Guttmacher Institute.
This rise is after the Supreme Court struck down Roe v.
Wade in the controversial Dobbs decision, which, by the way, is a 15-week abortion bill.
I know some states will take a harder line than others, but if you want an abortion in America, it's obviously widely available.
As a matter of fact, this week they've been offering them for free and free vasectomies if you want one of those too.
Yeah, let me go into one of these little centers that they put up in a little trailer.
Can I have a vasectomy, please, and an abortion on the side?
After all, I'm suffering.
You know, I identify as this sex.
And while we're at it, let's put feminine products in boys' bathrooms in schools of Minnesota.
Unbelievable.
And if kids want, quote, gender-affirming care, they can get it without parental consent.
That's California, and that is Minneapolis.
That's not Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Watching Kamala flip and flop and flail is just unbelievable.
Now she's backing off her ridiculous price control against price.
Oh, we didn't really mean what she said.
She didn't really mean that.
The one policy position she's taken.
He's no longer vice president for three and a half years.
I'm going to fix inflation on day one.
I'm going to fix the border on day one.
Bragging about Bidenomics working, and you have inflation reaching a 40-year high.
No longer the candidate that questioned the need for cash bail and blame police for urban violence.
No longer the candidate that wanted to ban fracking and drilling and endorsed with Bernie Sanders Medicare for all that would eliminate private health insurance and sponsored the radical Green New Deal, $93 trillion that would eliminate capitalism.
I mean, this is insanity.
Let's see.
Aaron Burnett over Fake News CNN wonders if Kamala Harris should ignore all these calls to talk to the media and just keep doing what she's doing.
Oh, I thought she was a journalist, and that would be what's called a get in the industry.
Like, I would love to interview Kamala Harris.
I'd love to interview Tim Walz, just like I will interview.
My next interview with Donald Trump will be at Town Hall in Pennsylvania on September the 4th.
Details to follow.
Also, a soft on, oh, you should see this New York Post cover this morning.
Soft on crime Kamala.
Harris helped bail groups raise millions to let loose murderers, rapists, and thieves.
Well, what did they do with open borders?
Same thing.
It's just these are unbelievable times that we are living in.
It's going to be interesting to watch the announcement tomorrow of RFK Jr.
It is widely speculated that he will be bowing out of the race and supporting Donald Trump.
The Freedom, the Joy Freedom Party wants to take your guns.
They want you to live with the criminals they allow in unvetted.
They want you to pay for their housing, their food, their health care, their education.
Even if you're in Minnesota, you get free college education.
They want to unilaterally disarm and take away your low prices of natural gas, low price of gasoline.
They want to take the car out of your driveway and replace it with an EV, take your private health insurance.
They want to take control of parenting.
They want to do all of the above.
That is your modern liberal leftist Democratic Party.
You basically have to be willing to vote against your own interest on every major issue because Donald Trump hatred is more important than any that trumps everything, pun intended.
By the way, Pelosi claimed she wanted an open process to replace Biden, but Harris smartly took advantage of the opportunity.
They just lie.
Now we got reports today in the New York Post, Schumer potentially eliminating the filibuster is the key to Harris's radical agenda.
And if you want to work for Kamala, guess what?
You do need to prove that you're up to date on your COVID vaccine vaccinations, COVID-19 vaccinations.
Great.
You look at Kamala's her own, by the way, Commerce Secretary.
How stupid is this person?
Doesn't even believe what the Bureau of Labor Statistics put out that up to 818,000 jobs that they said were created don't create.
They don't exist.
Today, the Bureau of Labor saying that more than 800,000 fewer jobs were actually created than initially reported.
And we have a sound bite here just to play, we can listen to it together because Donald Trump is already addressing this on the campaign trail.
Let's take a listen to that one together.
The administration padded the numbers with an extra, listen to this one, 818,000 jobs that don't exist.
So when you hear that, do you potentially think that this new numbers could be a liability for this campaign?
No, when I hear that, first of all, I don't believe it because I've never heard Donald Trump say anything truthful.
It is, though, from the Bureau of Labor.
I don't, I'm not familiar.
I mean, this is the Commerce Secretary.
How do you not know that?
Well, I don't believe the Bureau of Labor statistics because Donald Trump echoed that.
This whole convention has turned into nonstop, never-ending.
They don't talk about your problems.
They don't talk about what it feels like to go into a grocery store and fill up your car with gas or that you can't afford a new car or that you can't get a mortgage because of high interest rates.
They don't care about any of these things.
They don't care that everything you buy in every store you go to is costing you and your family more money.
They care about none of it.
Anyway, but Scott Jennings is telling the CNN panel that Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years, but still it's all Donald Trump's fault.
If the dog bites the beast things, you're feeling sad.
Blame Trump.
And all these speeches, as good as they were, is that she's in the White House right now.
Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years.
And for all of the talk about division and the problems in the country and people are hurting, Democrats have mostly controlled this country.
Trump had it for four.
The Obamas and Biden had it for the rest of the time.
And somehow, it's still all Trump's fault.
And somehow, she hasn't been at the center of it.
So to me, that's still the glaring hole in this campaign that hasn't yet been solved at the convention.
How do you explain all of the problems that will be solved by the person who is currently in there for the last three and a half years who is supposed to already be working on solving it?
Oh, it's almost as though every speaker at this DNC has been pretending the last three and a half years did not happen.
It didn't exist.
It's all an illusion.
Don't believe it.
And then I love, you know, Oprah shows up.
Did you see what Donald Trump posted?
The handwritten letter.
That's accurate, right?
From Oprah.
We'd be a great team together if we run for office, which is hilarious.
That made me laugh.
Oprah's a billionaire.
Good for her.
You know what?
She wants to donate her billions of dollars and give it to the government.
I'm all for it.
If J.B. Pritzker wants to do the same thing, I'm all for it.
You know, but they want to appeal to Americans that are struggling because of their policies, but they didn't cause them.
Donald Trump caused them.
But you have billionaires, Oprah Winfrey, Illinois Governor Pritzker.
You have, you know, Nancy Pelosi's a multi-millionaire, all these other multi-millionaires.
This guy, the Hyatt Hare, was there.
You know, his own status.
He's an actual billionaire.
Michelle Obama and Barack, I think they're worth more than 70.
They have homes in Hawaii, Chicago, D.C., and what is it?
Martha's Vineyard.
Matha's Vineyard.
Okay.
So they're not exactly, they're estimated wealth, $70 to $100 million.
What if they don't, if they want to get rid of it?
Now, Michelle actually said that her family never aspired to be wealthy and were suspicious of folks that took more than they needed.
Well, give it back.
If you think that these are ill-gotten gains, give it back.
And you don't have, Oprah, give your money back.
You don't need your Montecito mansion.
You don't need all the expensive trips that you take.
Give it back.
You don't have to, but stop empowering your government, the party of freedom, to take money from some people that work really hard for their money and want to keep their money and want to give it to their children and grandchildren.
And, you know, stop the class warfare crap.
By the way, Donald Trump left his bulletproof glass enclosure in North Carolina yesterday to help an audience member collapse from the heat, which was pretty cool.
He's got a lot of guts.
This guy just, he's in it to win and he's fighting.
I hope Americans fight with him.
800-941-Sean is a number.
