So down a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.com.
Now Bill is gonna get a cupcake interview on this program because I like this book so much.
I really did like it.
I can't I I would rather say I hated it and say it sucks and it's horrible and not give him a cupcake interview, but a cupcake interview is coming.
Uh it's called Confronting the Presidents, no spin assessments from Washington and Biden.
You can get a first edition copy.
We have a link on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, and it's a history of all the presidents.
I mean, Bill is really into the this history.
Used to be a history teacher, actually, um, long before he got into this insane business that we're now in.
Uh, but anyway, it's it's a really good book, and it's coming out in just a couple of weeks.
We look forward to having Bill on just to talk about that at the time, right up until Biden and he talks about Trump as well, um, and how relevant who the worst presidents in history were, and Kamala Harris would be the worst.
Um, let me ask you a long question, as I often do at the start of our interviews, and then shut up and let you answer, okay?
Because I really want your thoughts on it.
Uh and you raise kids and all kids get in trouble.
What's the worst thing a kid can do?
Get in trouble or lie about being in trouble, right?
It's lying.
Yeah, lie is worse than uh than the actual uh deed.
Okay.
So we have Kamala Harris is now claiming that she never supported an EV mandate.
And I've got all this tape of her supporting an EV mandate.
And and I'll get to that in a second.
You know, she said, I I'm in favor of a fracking ban.
She's in favor of a uh offshore drilling ban.
He said all of these things.
She wants Medicare for all, she co-sponsored it in the Senate with Bernie Sanders, and that would eliminate private health insurance and bring in universal health care.
Now her campaign says she doesn't support a fracking ban, a drilling ban, or supports uh support a single payer system, and she supports private insurance.
She wanted a mandatory gun buyback.
Now her campaign, because she has yet to do an interview.
We'll talk about the interview tomorrow in a second.
But now she does not support a mandatory buyback.
She was for defunding the police and dismantling the police and reimagining the police.
Now she's no longer for that either.
You know, she oversaw 1900 convictions for the marijuana offenses and laughed about smoking weed herself.
Uh so Medicare for All, the border wall.
Now she's claiming when she went after Donald Trump and said this is a vanity project.
He actually thinks a bunch of terrorists are gonna cross the border and and invade our country.
Well, under Harris and Biden, that very thing has happened.
We have hundreds of known terrorists uh with people with terror ties in the country because of them, on top of the 11 million.
And on top of that, you know, so all of these issues, he has flipped and flopped on.
Let me just play one of them.
I have the tapes of all of them.
I have the Kamala files on Hannity.com, the the walls files on Hannity.com, them in their own words.
Here's here's Kamala telling Aaron Burnett at fake news CNN her plan is zero emission cars only.
And she's calling it.
Well, by my plan, by 2045, we will have um basically zero emission vehicles only, one hundred percent.
By 2045.
All right, let's let me add one more thing, Aaron.
And also, the um school buses.
So part of my plan is that by 2030, we will have electric school buses.
Okay.
I have at least eight clips of her saying the same thing.
I won't bore you.
I don't like being lied to.
Here's my interpretation, then I give the floor to you.
Is they know that her position of decriminalizing illegal immigration, free housing, health care, education, it's not going to fly.
They know just defund, dismantle, no bail laws, reimagine.
It's not going to fly with the American people.
Uh price gouging has not gone over very well with the American people.
Uh the largest tax increase in the history of the world and and the history of this country and unrealized capital gains on tax of it uh taxes, and also a uh global minimum tax, which would take away all competitiveness that uh and every advantage we should have uh is stupid.
Uh we would economically surrender if we give up fracking and drilling.
It's the lifeblood of the world's economy.
Never mind her foreign policy.
Bill, he can't run on who she is.
This is all a lie, Bill.
The whole thing is a lie, and she has been able to dodge over 40 days answering questions.
Well, I wrote a column, uh I hope you read it on Bill O'Reilly.com called It's My Party and I'll Lie If I Want To.
Leslie Gore.
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to.
It's my party and I'll lie if I want to.
So here's the calculation.
So the Democratic Party knows that uh the vice president is what they call an empty vessel.
So she doesn't have any real policy thoughts of her own and no problem-solving abilities at all.
And we can prove that by the seven and a half years at the national level where she's never solved the problem one time, not even proposed a solution to a problem.
So they know that.
And the Democrats are banking that American voters will not care if they're overwhelmed by anti-Trump propaganda, which is the way it's going to come down.
So tomorrow night, this is fascinating.
And um it'll be on my message uh of the day tomorrow, and I'm sure you'll talk about on your radio program and TV program.
Um she's being interviewed with uh CNN, Dana Bash.
Okay, but not alone.
Tim Walls is gonna be there.
Why?
Why is he there?
What is in Mr. It's like a security blanket.
It's a wingman.
So right now, even as we speak, um the vice president and the governor are rehearsing to answer uh Ms. Dash's questions.
They know what the questions are going to be.
They haven't been given the questions per se, but they know where Bash is going to go.
And Dash will ask the hard questions because her boss, guy named Thompson, has told her you can't do a cupcake, you can't do a softball.
You have to ask the question.
But that doesn't matter.
Because it's the follow-up question that matters, not the original question.
So Kamala and Walls know what they're going to say twenty-four hours before the interview actually happens.
And they'll say whatever they want to say.
And Bash is not like me or you would jump in and say, hey, you didn't answer the question.
What's the matter with you?
I mean, I I made a career out of that.
Um just move ahead.
And it'll be Trump is this.
Trump wants to take reproductive rights away, Trump wants to tax uh people who don't have any money.
You know, the usual litany of anti-Trump stuff.
Now, I don't know Dana Bash.
I've never met her.
Have you met her?
I have, and she couldn't have been nicer to me.
And then, you know, before the debate, and I I I didn't think that she and fake Jake would be fair, and I thought they actually were, and I I I said uh they were fair, but I played them saying the most vile anti-Trump things over and over again.
So she clearly has an agenda, but in that moment, she was fair.
If she's gonna do a good interview, I think there's only one way to do it.
And that is to go to the Hannity.com, download the Kamala, oh what we call the Kamala files and the Walls files, play them in their own words, and explain why they believed that just a short time ago, and now all of a sudden their campaign says they don't.
I would play tape after tape after tape.
That's what Tim Russert used to do very effectively.
She's not going to do that.
All right.
CNN's not going to embarrass um Harris and Wall.
So they I would be surprised if they played any tape.
There's a possibility they may play one or two clips, but I I don't think so.
But I wouldn't even go down that road.
What I would do if I were interviewing them tomorrow night would be ask the simplest questions I could ask.
And let me give you a couple of examples.
Um Ms. Vice President, the fentanyl overdose death rate has risen more than 300% on Joe Biden and your watch.
Why do you think that is?
She's not expecting that at all.
All right, she won't have an answer for it.
Even Walls won't have an answer for it.
So you gotta understand that when Kamala Harris falters, Walls will jump in.
That's his job.
Then I would ask this.
When Donald Trump left office, inflation was 1.4%.
Under your administration with President Biden, it jumped to over 9%.
Why did that happen?
Do you think she could answer that question, Annanie?
Well, uh then you could add to it if you want to that inflation remains uh 20% higher than when you took office.
Well and then and and she had told us that the economy's great, and she said, That's called Bidenomics, and we're proud of it.
Just recently, until now she's talking about the high cost of everything you buy in every store you go to.
Right, and she's gonna price control the or price gauging, as she put it.
Price gauging.
That's right.
Bill, can you explain what price gauging is?
Word of the day.
Go ahead.
It's basically when you look at your uh gas gauge in your car, and you say, Oh my god, I just paid $80 to fill this up.
That's the price gauge.
That's exactly what I paid this weekend.
80 bucks.
I was like, oh crap.
It sucks.
By the way, I still don't think like when I was poor, but go ahead.
You gotta keep the question simple.
You can't layer it on.
You just have to say fentanyl up 300% one.
Inflation 1.4 to 9, one.
Um so when you get that kind of a very simple question, and they dodge it, then everybody knows that that it goes viral.
Here's the Dodge on this, here's the Dodge on that.
That's how you do the interview.
Now, do I have any um confidence that Dana Dash will do that?
No.
However, I wanna I want to layer this a little bit.
She is a smart woman.
I saw her report from Ukraine early on.
She did a good job over there.
But she, as with most of the personnel at CNN are deeply invested in the liberal progressive movement.
They're all of the same um belief system.
And that's why that network is destroyed.
Look, Fox gets the rep that it's conservative is this and that, but on Fox, the bookers, and you know, I was there for more than 20 years, they actively seek out other points of view, left-wing points of view, Democrat points of view, because it makes it more fun to watch.
Okay?
CNN doesn't do that.
They've got a couple of tokens, but the tokens are well under control.
So Dana Bash is there.
She knows if she asks uh cupcakes, she's gonna get hammered, so she won't, but she won't follow up.
So I'm gonna tweet during the uh interview at Bill O'Reilly, and I'm gonna point out all of the inner workings of this.
Uh, and I think it's gonna be very interesting.
What did you make of Kamala trying to pull out of the debate?
Jason Miller was quoted as saying, not only did they they want the mics on the whole time, then she wanted it it to go from a standing up debate to a sit down debate, and she wanted to have cheat sheets and notes in front of her uh during the debate, and and it seemed like they were trying to wiggle their way out of it.
And Trump, to his credit, said, We already agreed.
The debate over debates is over.
And there were people that were saying, Well, you need to just give in and get her on the stage no matter what.
And I'm like, No, you don't.
You do you don't give in to her.
I didn't, I think I I was right in my strategy.
Um, I don't think it's a a big deal.
My prediction was the debate's gonna be identical to the Biden debate, and that's what's gonna happen.
And then ABC is throwing two people out there, David Muir and Lindsay Davis, I think her name is, that again are very much like Dana Bash.
They're not gonna ask any follow-up questions.
They won't.
Neither of them are particularly skilled interviewers.
I mean, you and I both knew Mike Wallace.
We knew the old guard, okay?
And and the the difference between the skill level between the Mike Wallace people, Ted Coppel, people like that, and now I was afraid for weeks when I my book Live Free or Die came out because you just kept threatening to bash the crap out of me, and you're there's not gonna be a cupcake interview, Hannity.
Yeah, I mean, look, I mean, I think I'm the toughest interviewer on the planet right now.
Oh my gosh.
You know, I'm I am Did you see the Vance interview that I did?
Did you see that?
I did.
I thought you did a good job.
Well, it wasn't about I No, no, no, it was about policy, which and I thought he gave very good answers.
I thought he did very well.
Exactly right.
So if you know if you know your material, it's not hard.
Listen, I know I pulled you out of vacation.
Uh the the pictures of the tuna were pretty cool.
I don't know where you are.
Well, actually, I do, but I'm not gonna tell everybody where you are.
Have a have a great uh uh Labor Day weekend, and uh we'll we'll talk to you next week, Mr. O'Reilly.
Thank you for coming on during your vacation.
Thanks for having me.
You can see those picks on BillO'Reilly.com.
And you're cool.
Definitely worth seeing.
150 pound tuna.
Wow, it's gonna be eating tuna for a lot of weeks.

What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
It's almost a dirty word.
One that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.

Uh so I know that we're heading back uh to into school season.
Many of you in the South, your kids are back in school already.
And after Labor Day, most kids go back to school in the Northeast, for example, and other parts of the country.
Uh, so it's that time of year, right after Labor Day.
Pretty much everybody will be back in school.
And what we have learned is these institutions of higher learning like Columbia and all these Ivy League schools are planning to pick up where they left off last year, and that means confronting Jewish students, taking over large portions of campuses and buildings, etc.
etc.
Uh, and intimidating people uh that are Jewish on college campuses.
They didn't get in trouble the last time for the most part, uh, hardly at all when they took over Hamilton Hall and at Columbia, for example.
And they have created uh that hostile environment that liberals lecture us so often about.
And anyway, I'm glad to report, and you will I'll introduce you to uh two people in a second, uh, that there is a law firm that has filed a lawsuit, and they're representing Columbia's students that are suing the anti-Jewish encampments on Colombia's campus, as well as the squad for their support and encouragement of the encampments.
And we do have audio of one of the protesters reading a message from Gaza thanking Columbia students for standing in solidarity with Palestine.
Listen to this from Colombia.
Resta sees you.
Resta sees you.
From Resta to the U.S. From Resta to the U.S. We stand in on wavering solidarity, we stand unwavering solidarity with the students with justice for Palestine at Columbia University.
We stand with the SJP members.
We stand with the SAP members, Columbia students, Columbia students, and the protesters and the protesters and their demands for Columbia to completely financially debust.
Columbia's completely financially divest from the occupation entity from the occupation entity.
On April 17, 2024, April 17th, 2024.
Students at Columbia began in as a solidarity encampment as a brave stand against the university's complicity genocide.
I mean, these are supposed to be the institutions of higher learning.
Well, one little phenomenon that is beginning to occur, and we saw this last year, is applications to Ivy League institutions are down.
But you see that applications to institutions that don't have woke and don't have or put up with this type of radicalism.
parents are preferring to send their kids to sec schools and southern schools you know just to get away from this madness they you know where it might have been once been a dream to send your kid to an ivy league institution i can tell you from my own experience but Parents that I know that have kids that they're thinking about colleges, and maybe they were thinking early, well, if I can get my kid into Hobbit and Yale or Princeton or Columbia or Dartmouth or Cornell, whatever it happens to be.
No, that they're looking at other, they're looking at other places now, like UVA, they're looking at places like Vanderbilt, Wake Forest, uh UNC, you know, other great colleges.
You know, UNC was the school.
Remember uh a bunch of students put up the Palestinian flag and then a fraternity group.
They went out, and there's going to be a big concert with John Andrasic of Five for Fighting and Big and Rich are going to be there.
John Rich for sure.
And they said, no, we're putting back the American flag and nobody was going to mess with the fraternity.
And they did it.
And they're going to have a big uh big shindig there.
The law firm that is filing this suit is uh Hughes and Sir, Patrick Hughes and Daniel Sir are the partners, and they have filed this lawsuit representing those Columbia students, suing not only the anti-Jewish encampments at Columbia, but as well as the Ska Squad and and Congresswoman Omar and others for their support and encouragement of the encampments.
And we saw what happened the last time that these that Jewish students are you are you a Zionist?
And if you're a Zionist, you weren't allowed to pass.
And it got worse.
Those students had to stay home.
I mean, here you're paying all this money.
You know, you work hard to get into an Ivy League school.
You're paying all this money for that Ivy League institution.
And then you can't even be on campus because you don't feel safe and secure on that campus.
Anyway, Patrick Hughes, Daniel Sir, thank you both for being with us.
Sean, thanks for having us, and thanks for the UNC shout out.
My son is a freshman there and plays on the baseball team, so that's great to hear.
Okay.
Is this Daniel or is this Patrick?
How are you?
Yeah, this is Pat.
How are you?
Well, congratulations for your son.
UNC is a great school.
Uh, all the schools that I mentioned are great.
There are many other ones.
Um I'm just giving a small sample.
You know, University of South Carolina, Clemson, I mean, there's there's a ton of them.
And the great environments for kids, and it doesn't have woke, and it doesn't have this nonsense.
It might have a certain degree of woke, but nothing like the madness of uh these Ivy League institutions.
Uh Patrick, I'll continue with you.
Tell us about the lawsuit.
Yeah, Sean.
So we've sued um all the people that you've mentioned for a couple hundred million dollars uh uh against them, and including AOC and Omar, who supported the protests both on Twitter and in social media, and then physically, when they trespass uh onto the campus to support these uh protests.
It shut down classes, uh everybody had to go online.
It shut down the ability to enjoy the campus during finals week.
It canceled graduation for 9,000 students, and there are, and Daniel can get into detail about this, there are damages, heavy damages associated with that.
So uh we went and represented five Jewish students, three who are undergrads and two who have graduated, uh, who want to be anonymous, Sean, because they're in fear of retaliation from these groups because and we'll find this after the lawsuit.
Who are these groups connected to?
Who are they funded by?
Are they funded by overseas contacts?
Are they funded by terrorist organizations?
And so this lawsuit is aiming to compensate these students, compensate every student that was damaged at Columbia, because it's gonna be a class action lawsuit, so all the students will be able to participate.
And then also to find out what is going behind behind the scenes of these organizations.
Who's funding them?
Who's pushing this?
Because this is not organic, as you know, Sean, this has been planned and orchestrated all over the country.
Well, let's get your take, Daniel, sir, and I agree.
I mean, these students have a right to go to school and go in a safe environment.
This is not a safe environment for them.
I I I've got to wonder if some of these parents, after witnessing everything that happened last year, if they're not reconsidering maybe maybe pulling their kids out of these schools and moving to another place.
It's a real problem, Sean.
As we look to return to school, like you said, right after Labor Day, I don't think students know what to expect.
I know what the law entitles them to.
The law entitles them to a safe campus environment.
It entitles them to a discrimination-free campus.
It entitles them to the classes and facilities that they're paying for.
That's not what happened in the spring.
And as students return, I think there's a lot of apprehension that it's going to start all over again.
And one of the other goals for our lawsuit is to deter that kind of behavior.
To say if you're going to break the law, the DA might not hold you accountable, Mr. Bragg, the school might not hold you accountable, but the other students who were damaged were going to hold you accountable.
And so you want to think twice before you do this again.
All right, quick break.
We'll come right back more on this lawsuit against the squad and Columbia University because of their plans to stop students from being able to enjoy their their campus experience, especially if you're quote a Zionist or if you're Jewish,
and you know, we expect that when schools open after Labor Day that it's they're going to be back to where it was at the end of last year as they are planning to protest and take over campuses and intimidate people.
CBS TV, and it's the news like nobody else.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, we continue with Patrick Hughes and Daniel Sir.
They are partners at Hughes and Sir, and they filed the lawsuit representing Columbia students suing uh the encampments that are on Columbia's University and the squad for their support and encouragement of those encampments.
Oh, I noticed that finally Columbia's president has stepped down, but I don't think that's going to make much of a difference.
Uh my understanding is these these radicals on college campuses have been plotting and planning and scheming all summer to pick up where they left off.
Is that your understanding, Patrick?
It is, Sean.
And they're not alone, right?
I mean, you saw this this week at the Democratic National Convention.
I mean, the Harris Biden administration did nothing to quell these protests.
Nothing at all.
Um President Vice President Harris is being supported by the squad.
The squad members were there supporting this.
And so you're not going to see a lot of resistance from half the country during this election season because this is a big part of the democratic base.
So that's a challenge that these universities have to overcome.
The other challenge they have to overcome is they fomented this, regardless of whether it was direct or indirect, the people that they bring on campus, the professors that they hire, the students that they admit, the culture that persists on these campuses, very different than the schools that you cited otherwise earlier in this segment, Sean.
These these campuses and these professors and these administrators have fomented this.
So it's a perfect storm between the protesters and you know, sort of the seeds that have been planted within the institution themselves.
I mean, we're suing uh the unions of the professors that participated in this uh during during this part.
So think about it.
Students and professors of Columbia University breaking the law.
These are not First Amendment protection activities.
They are breaking the law, terrorizing all the students, but specifically Jewish Jewish students on on campus.
And the adults in the room at Columbia couldn't do anything to stop it, unfortunately, because of how out of control it bec became.
And half of our country and the party that represents half of our country will do nothing to quell this because it's part of their political base.
Let me ask you, were you one of the parents that maybe at some point in your when your your son was growing up or thinking about maybe you know, well, maybe it'd be nice to send my kid to an Ivy League school, and then as time wore up went on and these colleges got more woke and extreme in their ideology.
You said I wouldn't, I I wouldn't even want to send my kid to an Ivy League institution.
There's no question, Sean.
My son was recruited to play baseball at a bunch of the Ivy Leagues.
We would not go there.
And my daughters have two grown daughters that are graduates of the University of Georgia.
And I live in Chicago.
And that because Chicago, you don't want to live in Chicago and graduate in Chicago, so you go down to the Southeast, or you go down to the Lower East Coast, and you start your life out there.
What's happening in these cities?
What's happening in the universities?
It's the same politics, right, Sean.
What's going on in Chicago and what's going on in Columbia or Yale or Harvard?
The exact same thing.
And with the left does, like they've done with, you know, replacing Biden and moving with Harris.
That's the exact same thing they're doing on Columbia.
They're just gonna keep marching forward without any view or regard for the law.
And they're gonna continue to do until somebody stops them.
Because they know Alvin Bragg, like Daniel mentioned, isn't gonna stop them.
So it's incumbent upon someone else to stop them.
And so our lawsuit is designed to stop this behavior, not just at Columbia, but everywhere else, by putting a massive, massive price on this type of activity.
And if it happens at Columbia, if it happens anywhere else, we're gonna be going to those places as well.
Like your son, my daughter was an athlete and recruited as well uh by them.
And and she ended up going to a school that ended up being just as woke, and she she she did hated every minute of it in the end, not hated, but I mean, just didn't have the college experience that I think she had hoped for, unfortunately.
My son made a different decision, and uh, and he definitely loved his choice.
But anyway, we support your lawsuit, support what you're doing.
Uh Patrick Hughes, thank you.
Daniel sir, thank you.

You know, we're quickly approaching what is the one-year anniversary of the horrific attacks against Israel by Hamas, of course, proxy war again, led by Iran, the head of the snake, and the holy land is is just being bombarded uh on multiple fronts with rockets being fired out of the north and Hezbollah out of Lebanon and the South, and that's Gaza and Hamas and the Houthi rebels, and of course the threat lingering that Iran will once again engage themselves.
And as a result of all these tax so much attacks, so many Israelis have been displaced.
They need bare essentials just to get by, and that's where the international fellowship of Christians and Jews come in.
They have been on the ground in the forefront of addressing these dire needs of of the most vulnerable that have been displaced and are and and in need of life-saving donations.
