Well, I hope so.
But again, that was then.
This is now.
We have to go forward.
Time is slipping away.
minus 74 days until America votes.
Yeah, we're coming, city.
I was insane, you were country sound.
From coast to coast.
From sea to shining sea.
Sean Hannity is on.
All right.
Thank you, Scott Shannon.
And thanks to all of you for being with us.
Hour two, Sean Hannity Show, 800-941-Sean, a number you want to be a part of the program.
And we're only 74 days until election day.
25 days early voting begins in the state of Pennsylvania.
Ballots go out, mail-in ballots even before then.
And so it is really game time.
The Democratic, well, they say this is about joy.
They say this is about freedom.
They're the Freedom and Joy Party.
Joy and Freedom Party.
But they want to take away your guns and confiscate them.
They have no problem if illegal, unvetted, illegal immigrants take away your freedom and commit horrific crimes.
They just ignore them.
Why bother calling the families of Lake and Riley and Rachel Morin, mother of five, or Jocelyn Nungari, or this 13-year-old girl raped in broad daylight in a park in Queens, New York.
You know, and then, of course, the Freedom Party, the Joy Party, takes great joy taking your money to offer free health care, housing, education for their illegals that they've allowed into the country and now want to offer amnesty.
They have no problem with the Freedom and Joy Party of you suffering and having to pay higher gas and energy prices because of their fracking bans and drilling bans.
They have no problem, the Freedom Party, of forcing you to give up your gas-powered vehicle and force that electric vehicle into your driveway, whether you like it or not.
The Freedom Party has no problem forcing you into a universal health care system, Medicare for all.
And of course, that would mean no private health insurance.
And she's actually said it.
Of course, this corrupt media that RFK was very eloquently describing today that, you know, they're never going to expose this.
You know, they have no problem, the Freedom Party, taking away your right as a parent and giving, quote, gender-affirming care, meaning treatment, meaning life-altering treatment to your children without your consent or knowledge.
They have no problem even with, you know, up to the last minute, no restrictions on abortion, which would be infanticide.
No problem lying to you about the number of jobs created.
Oh, we just inflated it by nearly a million.
Or lying about inflation.
It's transitory.
It's anything but.
Or lying about the borders being closed and secure.
Or lying about, you know, COVID.
And, you know, if you get the shot, you're never going to get COVID and you never infect anybody.
Big lie.
Lying about Biden's cognitive decline, lying about Hunter Biden's laptop, lying about the Biden family syndicate and the foreign money that the Biden family took in.
And Joe, no, I never one time spoke at all with my son, my brother, or anybody.
Big lie.
Lie to you about Donald Trump's positions on immigration, on taxation, on abortion, on IVF treatments, on pretty much everything on Project 2025, which he has said that he does not support, does not know about, has not had any part of, and is not his agenda.
But they spent an hour at the convention part of the lying.
But again, they're full of joy.
They're very joyful when they tell lies.
Just like they lied about Russia collusion, lied with the dirty Russian dossier.
They went three years of peddling nonstop lies and conspiracy theories, lying about the Ukrainian war, lying about pretty much everything they can get there, you know, that they can lie about.
Violent crime isn't down.
It's up almost 25% across 66 major cities.
That's not what you heard the last four nights out of Chicago.
Illegals that she led into this country, not once did they ever take the time to say that we need to vet them.
She just wants to offer them amnesty, health care, housing, and education.
And Walls wants free college education and a legal driver's license.
Lying about, oh, no, no, we don't support this, taxing tips.
But she was the tiebreaking vote in the Senate for the Inflation Reduction Act, empowering the IRS to go after service workers and their tips.
And I can go on and on and on.
You know, Kamala Harris, you know, we went through in great specificity and detail yesterday.
I won't repeat all of it here, but all the taxes that they want to impose on every American with this new tax plan of hers, which is just absolutely madness.
I mean, we're talking about what is the biggest tax hike ever in American history in terms of dollars, the biggest tax hike in the history of the world.
$5 trillion in new taxes.
This is why I guess she co-sponsored with Bernie Sanders the new green deal, $93 trillion.
The corporate tax, which corporations don't pay taxes, going up a whopping 7%.
Well, you're going to pay for that.
Every story, if you think inflation is bad, that's inflation in perpetuity.
Oh, but we're not going to tax people that make under $400,000 a year.
Well, apparently, if you have a 401k or retirement account of any kind, guess what?
You're going to pay taxes on unrealized capital gains.
Oh, well, my stock portfolio this year went up a whopping 35%.
Okay, you don't sell your stocks, but you have to pay tax on the gain on those stocks.
And she wants to raise the capital gains tax to an enormous rate, up to 40%, wants to more than double it.
That will destroy all investment.
And then, of course, she wants this global minimum tax that would take away all competitive advantage that will all collude with other countries and agree that, all right, we're going to have the same rate of taxation on corporations so they won't go shopping to business-friendly countries.
Oh, that's just great.
You know, they want to raise the Medicare surtax.
You know, she's going to let the Trump tax cuts expire.
Well, that will cause taxes to go up for almost every American.
And that means families making under $100,000 a year.
Capital gains up to 40% from 15%.
I mean, when does this end?
This is crazy.
All right, let's get to our phones.
The other big news, the endorsement of Trump by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., by the way, he excoriated the media.
It was actually sad to listen to how the Democrats, the media, the deep state aligned against him in every way possible.
By the way, we didn't do that.
I don't agree with him on everything.
A lot of things I disagree with him on, but he's right about the war on freedom of speech.
He's right about a corrupt institution called the media in the deep state.
He's right about the war on children.
He's actually, you know, far more conservative when it comes to immigration than where his party is.
Doug is in Tennessee.
Doug, glad you called, sir.
Hey, how you doing today, Sean?
Thank you for good.
What's going on?
Thank you.
Well, I just wanted to start out by telling you, you know, we appreciate everything you do.
You've got to keep up the fight.
But today, they may be the party of joy, but the joy is with us today because the news that Robert F. Kennedy gave us today is just phenomenal.
But what gets me is that the mainstream media is not going to tell us anything about it.
They're going to make it out like it's nothing, but we know better.
For a man who told us today that he knew he was a Democrat at a young adolescent age, knew he was going to be a Democrat, comes from one of the strongest Democratic families to ever exist in our lifetimes.
And he sees through it.
And he has left the Democratic Party.
And when he was telling us what they had done to him, I felt sorry for the man.
I did too.
I felt sorry for him, too.
It was terrible.
I did.
I did.
I felt sorry for him.
But he has seen the light.
In real life, I'm going to be honest, I like him.
He didn't like one interview we had because I challenged him on things that we disagree on.
But there are things we agree on.
He wasn't wrong about people racing to the COVID vaccination either.
I disagree with him on other vaccination issues, but he wasn't wrong on COVID.
No, he wasn't.
And he's like a tree.
He's willing to bid.
Where the other Democrats, Pelosi, Schumer, the rest of them, there's no bin to him whatsoever.
It's all phony.
It's all smoke and mirrors.
You can tell.
That's a personable guy right there, RSK Jr.
He's a guy you can sit down and talk to.
And like you said, you may not agree with everything he's saying.
Who does?
Who agrees on everything?
Nobody.
Nobody agrees on it.
Well, I think I'm hoping everybody always agrees with me, but no, I'm just kidding.
I agree with you.
You're dead on right.
Let me tell you, you're right about one thing.
He exposed these people really in a powerful way, in a way that I honestly felt bad for him.
And by the way, these are the same forces aligned against Trump.
I'm going to get some more calls in, though, Doug.
Good call, my friend.
You have a great weekend.
Appreciate it.
Louisiana and Alan is next.
Sean Hannity Show.
Hi.
Hi, Sean.
Thank you.
I appreciate everything you do.
And that was a great last caller as well.
I listen to you while I drive and I watch your show in the evenings.
I'm a father of three college students at the same time right now.
I have a son at Tulane, one at LSU and one at ULM.
Oh, wow.
Broke father.
But all three of them, this is their first year in their life that they're going to vote in a presidential election.
And I called my son at Tulane just to check the temperature of, hey, what's it like?
It's a predominantly liberal university.
And, you know, he says, you know what, Dad, we feel cheated.
And this is where the Democrats have cheated young voters is they didn't get the opportunity.
And that's where RFK, his support of Donald Trump is huge, is they cheated him out of a Democratic primary.
They cheated young voters out of a true election and an opportunity to vote with choice.
And this support is leaning.
And I asked my son, I said, well, what's it like?
He said, Dad, and my son is biracial.
And he says, it doesn't matter the Jewish students at Tulane, the Palestinians, African Americans.
It's Trump, Trump, Trump.
Same thing at LSU.
They aren't buying the liberal media and the lies they're telling.
And they see and they feel cheated the fact that they did not get an opportunity to have a Democratic primary in their very first election.
So this is a historic moment and in the support of RFK Jr.
and the family.
The Kennedy family is Democrats love them.
I just want to say that, that the youth, and he always says, I don't know who they're polling.
I don't know how she's climbing up the polls, but 90% of everybody I know is Donald Trump.
And you're talking from 18 to 21-year-old college students in America that are supporting Donald Trump.
Yeah, let me tell you something.
And good for you kids, by the way.
I bet you're a proud dad, and you should be.
You get your kids off to college.
You know what?
It's hard raising kids.
By the way, don't make the mistake I made.
I thought, oh, they graduated college.
I'm done.
My job is done.
No.
Anyway, we'll stay in Louisiana.
Good call, my friend.
Jason in Louisiana also.
Jason, how are you?
Hi.
How are you doing, Sean?
I just want to start off by saying thank you for being a champion for conservative value and speaking the truth at all times.
I really appreciate that a lot.
I thank all of you for all of those.
Your kind words beat a lot.
I can't do it without you.
What's on your mind today?
I'm an injured combat veteran.
I have four children that are all grown.
The cost of everything today, I'm struggling.
And it's all because of these radical, you know, radical policy changes and then just undoing all the great things that Donald Trump did.
I can tell you this, this RFK endorsement is very big.
It's big.
They're going to try to cover it up.
The polls are going to be leaning towards Harris.
You know how they usually do.
But I will tell you this.
I'm claiming victory through a higher power that's much higher than any of this.
And that's through God.
And God knows that we need this win and we will win.
And God bless America.
I love all of everyone.
I love everyone.
But I can tell you one thing.
This is really bigger than they're going to portray it as on national television because I think that Trump, this is going to push him over the top.
And we're going to win this White House back and we're going to make America great again and claim, I claim victory through Christ.
Listen, well, amen to that.
And I'm a believer as you are.
And, you know, you got to remember, too, God doesn't go where he's not wanted.
And, you know, we have pushed God out of a lot of our institutions.
And I do believe that God has blessed this country.
I mean, in more ways than any of us know and we deserve.
We're very blessed.
And, you know, but Ronald Reagan warned us that the whole issue of freedom, it is but one generation away from extinction.
And let it not be on our watch.
Please, I'm deputizing all of you.

The media is corrupt.
As an institution, they are abusively corrupt and biased.
It's like the former Soviet Union's Pravda.

Solid as a rock, honest, truthful.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Hi, 25 till the top of the hour, 800-941.
Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, 74 days till election day, early voting starts in just a little over three weeks in Pennsylvania.
Ballots go out before that in other states, and then it rolls out around the country.
The country is not sufficiently knowledgeable.
It's not reached into the bloodstream in the American culture and consciousness how extreme, radical, and dangerous Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are.
We have a lot of work to do.
This is game time.
There is no tomorrow.
There is no tomorrow.
This is it.
And if you want to save your country, download the Kamala files, the Walls files, on Hannity.com and share it on social media and share it with your friends, your family, your co-workers.
Do something with it because the media is not going to do their job.
They never do their job.
Anyway, I want to tell you about our friends at the IFCJ.
I mean, Israel is just being bombarded from the north, Hezbollah, and, of course, out of Lebanon and Hamas out of Gaza in the south.
And all the saber-rattling of Iran continues, and the Holy Land continues to be attacked on multiple fronts, and deadly threats are increasing every single day.
Non-stop rocket attacks.
Now, since the war started, thankfully, there's an organization we have proudly partnered with called the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
They have been in the forefront of helping all those Israelis.
And there are tens and tens of thousands of them that have been chased out of their homes, that are displaced.
They need food.
They need medical care.
They need housing.
They need help.
And your life-saving donation is providing the emergency food, medical care, shelter that they desperately need.
And also, they're providing critical security needs like flak jackets, firefighting equipment, armored vehicles, those mobile bomb shelters we keep telling you about.
Look, if 500 of you right now, the need is so great can just, I know these are tough economic times, but if you could just give $150 and join us and meet these immediate urgent security needs, you will be doing more than you could ever imagine.
And they're very, very judicious with their spending.
They honestly, they've got the best team on the ground, and nobody's profiting from any of this.
All of it's going directly to help people in need, every penny.
And thanks to a very generous IFCJ donor, your gift is going to be matched.
That'll double your impact helping our friends in need in the Holy Land.
Anyway, you can call now 888-488-IFCJ-888-488-IFCJ online.
Supportifcj.org.
One word, supportifcj.org.
Now, of course, the anti-Israel protests continued all throughout the DNC and even into last night.
As I made my way to the final night of the convention, I saw more protesters.
And one of the things that was interesting to me was actually see them in city buses.
They were being bused in from wherever the hell they were staying and brought into the same location, bus after bus, unloading packs of people.
My favorite was seeing a mother with a little child and then a baby in a stroller going to the protest.
Now, would you bring your young children to a protest?
I don't think that's where I take my young children.
Listen.
Do you support Hamas?
Every Palestinian support Hamas, not just me.
Every Palestinian support Hamas.
Do you support October 7th?
October 7th.
October 7th, yes, I do.
What's wrong with October 7th?
What's your headband?
This is the headband for the military wing responsible for the resistance operations in Gaza.
Hamas?
Yeah.
Do you support Hamas?
I do.
Why do you support Hamas?
So I support any of all resistance operations that fight for the freedom of our country, for the freedom of Palestine.
Does that include October 7th?
All right, that is, you know, what's been going on down there.
Our friend Ben on the ground of the DNC.
I saw him on a number of occasions.
A retired NYPD inspector, attorney, founder of opsdesk.org, and it's a really effective group.
Ben on the ground, saw him a number of times in Chicago, and he was among the protesters and was actually reporting for us as well.
I just want people to know exactly what you saw, what you were hearing, who these people are, and is there anybody that doesn't support what happened on October 7th?
Or are they just completely indoctrinated little Ivy Leagues of school brats that just have been educated out of every bit of common sense God gave them?
Well, Sean, thanks for having me.
I would be lying if I said that that was not the pervasive atmosphere.
I would make a distinction.
There were a lot of protesters there, the majority, who were solely focused on the Gaza issue, but I'm not giving them a pass because their focus on the Gaza issue was entirely unnuanced.
It was realistically in their rhetoric and what they were saying, what they were shouting on the bullhorns, et cetera, was realistically just the eradication of Israel.
There's no other way to interpret from the river to the sea, shut it down, et cetera, et cetera.
There are some sort of attendant issues talking about what Israel has done specifically in the war, etc.
But the main thrust of it was that.
And then there is the sort of adjacent groups that you always get with these things, but who are welcomed in and are part of the whole thing.
So that's got to give you pause.
And those are the anarchists, the communists, the black blockers, the Antifa types.
And there was plenty of them.
Their message is a little different.
And their message is simply destroy America.
Do everything you can to undermine and rid us of America.
Capitalist America is the source of all evil on earth.
It's got to go.
So when you would go in the crowd and you'd actually have these conversations with these people, I mean, were they willing to talk to you?
Were they willing to expose who they really are?
Were they willing to really lay out their agenda?
No.
And in fact, you know, I would be very honest.
You know, they would ask me who I was.
I would say, I'm with Fox News.
I'm a Fox News contributor.
I just came here and I'd like to hear your side of the story.
By the way, that's a mistake.
I'm an independent journalist.
That's what you say next time.
You can be undercover.
Yeah, well, you know, I have to tell you, Sean, they see somebody like me, for whatever reason, they just shut down.
You know, if I'm wearing head-to-toe black with a mask on, because that's a real point I would like to make.
They all are wearing masks, the more radical of them.
They don't want to be seen.
They don't want their faces shown.
And, you know, to me, that's very telling because I also was embedded in a counterprotest of about 50 to 75 pro-Israel, Israeli supporters.
None of them had masks, and they were carrying Israeli flags, sure, but American flags.
And the only flags I saw from the other group were on fire.
And so it just, you know, it's very telling that they just, they're hiding.
They're very well organized.
They're all, some of these are street activists that go back decades, you know, past even Occupy Wall Street, which I was very familiar with having worked.
I know the tactics.
I know what they do.
They were primarily nonviolent, except for the real outside agitators, the adjacent groups that I'm talking about in front of the Israeli mission.
And that day, that was the second day.
All they wanted was to provoke.
They were burning the American flag, burning the Israeli flag, and that was the one that got a little bit violent.
And that was when they took 72 arrests.
Well, I think that's pretty unbelievable.
And I think it was Mike Tobin that actually reported.
I think it was that night when he said to me that there was a direct attack on the police that he thought was pre-planned.
It was shut down very quickly.
I will give a lot of credit to Chicago police and other police officers that were brought in from other jurisdictions because they had the place shut down pretty good.
I mean, so good that it got difficult a couple of nights for me to get to the convention center.
This really, unfortunately, is in spite of their criticism of Democrats, the Democratic Party has enabled all of this.
They're the ones that have called for restraint after the equivalent of 40,000 Americans were killed on October the 7th.
And it's just sad to me that they're that ignorant and completely unaware of what happened on October the 7th.
What part of murder and rape and beheadings and kidnappings and torture do these idiots have a hard time comprehending?
Because I don't think it's that difficult.
There is a right.
There is a wrong.
There is moral clarity.
And in this case, Israel should have the right to win their war against radical Islamic terrorists that, of course, the Democratic nominee doesn't even want to say the word.
And Harris and Biden wouldn't even help support or give just their seal of approval for Israel to retaliate after Iran fired hundreds of missiles into their country.
Yeah, so you see the supporters who are blatantly pro-Hamas wearing Hamas headbands, which is a very distinct headband.
You know, it's easy to pick up.
You see Hezbollah flags.
This is while Hezbollah is launching rockets indiscriminately into Israel.
A couple of attacks ago, they killed a bunch of kids in a schoolyard.
And they weren't even Jewish, the victims.
They were Druze in the northern part of Israel.
So the whole thing is really very blunt force, ignorantly done.
And we all know there's casualties on both sides.
No sentient human being wants children of any persuasion to be dying in a war.
Of course not.
But there's no nuance to what they are proposing, these protesters.
You try to have the kind of conversation and make the points you just made, and you get shut down, you get a lot of hostility, you get blank stares.
And there's also a subtlety running through it all.
And this is the sense I got.
They feel like with Kamala, they got what they want.
And I think that that was double-tapped by her choice of Waltz.
I think any real honest political prognosticator would say that Shapiro was the superior choice.
And I think they see Waltz as something of a dog whistle.
And many of these folks, they came from out of town, probably a lot from Minneapolis.
They know what Waltz is about.
They know how he handled the post-Floyd riots, and they know where he's coming from.
And they feel like, okay, maybe we got what we want here.
She better not tack too far to the middle on us because they know that she's trying to tack to the middle in order to get elected.
So I think they're sending her a message as, well, I got that from a few of them in what little I could get, that they don't want her going off the reservation.
She's theirs, and she better stick to it.
And that's why I think a lot of the criticism of her was somewhat muted.
You know, there was some, certainly they were protesting against the DNC, but they want to lock her in as their woman in the White House.
And it's amazing to me that she won't, as you mentioned, she won't condemn any of this stuff.
And I think her return volley.
Appreciate you being with us and sharing your experience.
Paul Moro, thank you.
All right, quick break.
We'll come right back.
We'll continue.
We'll get to your calls coming up next.

Glad you called, sir.
Happy Friday.
Hey, Sean.
Thank you so much for taking my call, man.
Thank you.
What's going on?
Influential figure for me.
Just talk about, you know, the Democrats, you know, how they're trying to portray people.
You know, I'm 28 years old.
I've seen it going on in colleges early on.
Now, you know, I've obviously woken up.
You know, I made a lot more money under President Trump, even though my salary was less out of college.
I live better.
You know, I live better.
Now I'm making as much as five years ago, $100,000 would be a lot of money.
Now it's nothing.
And these Democrats are putting Oprah on the DNC, Bashaw Obama, these trillionaire people.
And nothing on the economy matters to them.
It matters to people like me.
And her economic agenda is complete wrecking ball on realized games.
They're not even sugarcoating it anymore.
And now we're suffering.
Little guys like me are suffering.
And they have no plan.
Honestly.
And we need Trump back.
We know we need him back.
Well, I couldn't agree with you more.
The media obviously has gone all in for all things Kamala.
And now it gets very real.
I mean, we're going to go away.
Most people will take a little break over Labor Day and then we'll come back.
And then it is game on from now until November the 5th.
And frankly, not even November the 5th.
I mean, early voting is in 25 days.
And if I'm concerned about one thing is because of the corrupt media and they are abusively biased and corrupt.
And that's why I call them the media mob.
It's like a mob and they're coordinating and they're complicit and hiding everything about Walls and Kamala Harris.
Is that they just refuse to do their job and inform the American people of who she is.
You know, we even have fake news CNN anchors suggesting, well, maybe she should not do any interviews.
Seems to be working.
Well, I thought they claimed to be journalists.
And you're not demanding that a presidential candidate who got in at the last minute without a single primary vote doesn't need to answer questions about some of the most radical positions ever taken by any presidential candidate in history.
This is a form of madness, but this is the challenge that we face.
It's not, it is, you know, look, we could sit here and wring our hands all day, but what good is that going to do?
There's only one antidote to this, and that's winning.
The only antidote is to take over and do their job.
The only choice we have is to understand how corrupt the mob, the media, these institutions, the deep state, the Democratic Party is.
They will lie.
They want you to hate Trump so much that you will vote against what is clearly in your best interest.
But it's our job and everyone listening being deputized, your job to make sure that everybody you know in your life knows about the things that we know about her and about Tim Walz.
That's the only shot we got, man.
I'm telling you, take it seriously.
You don't want to wake up the morning after the night before, two days after the night before, and say, oh, I should have done more.
And I would assume, you must assume that your vote is the tiebreaking vote in this election.
If everybody does that and creates urgency in their friends, their family, their co-workers, strangers, put it on social media, then I think we can be very, very powerful and effective.
