Lawfare Continues - September 6th, Hour 1

President Trump remains the victim of the liberal left's attempts at lawfare.  Highly politically charged cases have, traditionally, not been conducted this close to Election Day!  This is politics at its worst.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is an iHeart Podcast.
You open your factory in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, anywhere else in our country, you don't pay a tariff tax.
You don't pay a tax.
You're going to make the product here.
And a reduction in the corporate tax rate from 21% to 15%, solely for companies that make their product in America.
I will create a government efficiency commission tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms.
What we're putting forward is the most pro-American manufacturing and jobs policy in modern history for any country.
This plan will bring jobs and growth into our country at levels never seen before.
Every business on earth will flock to America from Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and all over the world.
I can tell Sean exactly what I'm going to do, but things change.
It depends a lot on ABC.
Will they be fair or not?
If they're not going to be fair, I'm going to be a little bit different than if they are.
I hope they're going to be fair.
We're putting a lot of reliance on a network which is known for being extremely hostile to the people in this room and to, I think, 75, 80% of the country, if you want to really know the truth.
But, Sean, all I can say is this: you know, I've seen Mitt Romney go and lock himself into a log cabin for four or five weeks, and then he came out and he was horrible in the debate.
Anyway, class show with us 800-941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
And here we are.
We are 60 days out until Election Day.
Mail-in ballots are being sent out today in North Carolina, then Delaware, and some other states.
And we're 11 days away from voting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Let me address something right up front.
And I know I say this and have said this now for years.
The system of voting that we have does not lend itself, in my view, to the most integrity possible.
As a matter of fact, Kamala Harris, of all people, once agreed we should have paper ballots.
And I played that on the program many, many times.
And, however, she said, well, Russia can't hack a paper ballot.
And she actually, for once, was right.
And that would be the system I prefer.
I prefer Election Day be a national holiday.
I prefer paper ballots.
I prefer every state have really strong voter integrity measures, including proof of citizenship, voter ID, signature verification, chain of custody controls for those that do mail-in ballots, that being, of course, the military, that being maybe the sick and the infirm, et cetera, et cetera.
I would prefer that we have updated voter rolls at the very least every election and probably should be done every six months.
I want partisan observers watching the voting in every precinct in the country all day and the vote counting up close, not 5,000 feet away, like in 2020, throughout the night.
And if it goes into the next day and then the next day and then the next day and then the next day.
But that's not the system we have.
I know many of you take issue with me over the issue of the reluctance and resistance you have to voting early and voting by mail.
I can tell you in my state of Florida, the free state of Florida, they have perfected it down here.
They've had their problems over the years.
They have been resolved.
And there is integrity in the system.
There is a way to do it.
There is a way to do it right.
And you cannot start out.
This is the premise of my argument.
You can't start out on election day down hundreds and hundreds of thousands of votes and hope to catch up.
We saw that happen in that runoff race in New York when, you know, my old district, I lived in the Santos district, lucky me.
And anyway, they had a runoff election.
Democrats did what they usually do.
They got their early voting out.
And then day of election day, it was raining and sleeting, and the weather was miserable.
It happens to be an older district in terms of age, and people were not going to drive in this.
And it definitely suppressed Republican voting.
I'm not saying it would have made a difference in the race in any way, shape, manner, or form.
I'm just saying that there's no doubt that, in fact, this had an impact on the election, in my view.
And I don't think there's any doubt about it.
So here we are.
It is game time.
And if you see this as I do, which is an inflection point for the country, you're going to want to ⁇ I hope you will consider what I'm saying.
It is imperative.
I believe it will result in more people voting in the election, conservatives participating in ways they never have before.
Democrats have a machine, and that machine is going to get out their vote.
That you can depend on.
We do have big news today.
This New York judge, Juan Mershon, is delaying the sentencing of former President Donald Trump until November the 26th, which means that the sentencing phase for this ridiculous felony conviction would be after the election.
He had scheduled the sentencing for September the 18th, but in his ruling today, he said a decision on the immunity question won't come until mid-November instead of mid-September as initially planned.
The delay is a big victory for President Trump in many ways.
Although maybe it would have been better if he had a chance to appeal it because every legal scholar I know believes, as I believe, that this case is going to be won and overturned probably with great ease.
Now, Judge Mershawn has shown himself to be abusively biased in this case, and this case never should have been brought.
It is a misdemeanor in New York and a non-disclosure agreement that was perfectly legal that everybody had passed on charging, and the statute of limitations had long since passed and then upgraded into this novel felony legal theory of Alvin Bragg.
You know, Soros supported DA in Manhattan and New York City.
And anyway, after the Supreme Court decision, the entire verdict should be vacated anyway because evidence introduced in that case was evidence that from the time that he was president, where the Supreme Court decision clearly gives Donald Trump immunity and was acting in a professional capacity.
But that's neither here nor there.
It was a legal non-disclosure agreement.
Companies do it every single solitary day across this country.
I know people, famous people that hire realtors, and they make the realtor representing them sign an NDA that it's them.
I mean, it's so common, it's ridiculous.
But it was a legal non-disclosure, and it was identified as such, and a lawyer was paid for it and identified into bookkeeping as a legal expense, which it was.
But we have a lot going on than we had earlier in the week, and this is maybe the worst decision.
I mean, Jack Smith refiling the case Post-the immunity decision in the January 6th case.
All of that case has to do with Donald Trump's time as president, with a trying to revitalize this thing.
And even though there's not going to be a trial before the election, the judges left open the door in that case, the Obama appointed a judge to allow damning evidence against Donald Trump to come forward.
This is insanity because all of this is, it has the impact, the effect that they wanted, which is to use lawfare and the weaponization of our justice system.
And never mind the fact that it has been long-standing DOJ policy 90 to 60 days out of an election.
You do not cases like this that are highly politically charged are not brought before the courts and not brought and charges are not brought as has happened here.
The Washington Times reporting several hundred volunteer lawyers plan to head to swing states on election day, ready to watch for irregularities, errors that could be addressed by the courts.
The Republicans seem to have learned their lesson.
There's been a lot of court decisions, almost all of them favoring Republican lawsuits about, for example, proof of citizenship, voter roles, etc.
And whether or not they're updated.
I mean, there's been a lot of laws and voter integrity measures adopted by many states, not by enough of them.
You know, while Merrick Garland and Chris Ray focus on their new Russiagate fantasy, Senator Charles Grassley is working to unravel the uranium plot to assassinate Donald Trump.
I don't know how much of this I should reveal.
Linda knows about it.
She was there.
And my team knows about it.
Let me see if I could put this very, very gently.
And look, as a public figure, and I don't talk about it a lot over the course of my years on the radio and TV, I have had to deal with a lot of threats.
And I've not talked, I don't speak about them.
I don't talk about them.
I've had a fatwa on my head that was very real.
The Mossad literally warned NYPD and Fox Security that this is real and we have to take it seriously.
And that was something that weighed on me heavily.
My kids were younger at the time.
And, you know, white powder mailed to my office.
That has happened to me.
And by the way, I'm not complaining.
I understand that there's a lot of sick, demented, evil people in this world.
I get it.
But this was the first time that the Secret Service would not allow anybody to be seated on the floor of an event that I've covered.
This is the first time that we were given a hard number of people that they would allow in the building.
That's never happened before.
And maybe the most disconcerting, the first time I'd ever been pulled aside, and I've been doing town halls with politicians and presidents and prime ministers for all my adult life that I was ever given a plan that if shots rang out where I was to go on the stage that had never happened before.
And I say this as like it is a chilling time.
And then to hear that, you know, apparently Russia targeting people that talk about inflation and the high cost of groceries.
And I guess strangers, they don't know.
I mean, people are advertisers.
I mean, we've had our advertisers as best we can, and we've never had this problem.
But apparently, you know, money that had been funneled from Russia, I would argue 99% sure, probably unbeknownst to any of these influencers or people on social media.
I doubt they knew it.
They were just speaking their true opinions, what they really believed, and stating facts.
And then you look at what the DOJ put in this filing and about if you talk about inflation or the high cost of groceries, or you talk about the unvetted Harris and Biden illegal immigrants and the rapes and the murders and the violent crimes that have taken place, or if you talk about any true stories, somehow they're trying to tie to Russian disinformation.
So they're conjuring up visions of supposed Russian election interference designed to help Donald Trump, all while Vladimir Putin is verbally endorsing Kamala Harris and endorsed them publicly, endorsed Joe Biden twice.
And who do you think Vladimir Putin wants in office?
The guy that prevented him from having the Nord Stream 2 pipeline and the guy that put him in check when it came to issues involving Ukraine or Kamala Harris?
I don't think there's any doubt.
Who do you think the Mullahs in Iran would rather deal with, Donald Trump or Kamala Harris?
Who do you think President Xi or Kim Jong-un would rather deal with?
Because I'm telling you right now, they view her as weak based on the policies that have been in place for the last three and a half years, hence the disaster that is going on.
You know, you've got, you know, here we go again.
I mean, if you say something true, oh, it must be Russian disinformation.
The only Russian disinformation used in an election was the dirty Russian disinformation dossier that the FBI was warned not to use, that they used in 2016 to acquire four FISA warrants as a backdoor spying on candidate and President Trump.
And then, of course, the FBI and the CIA, former Intel officials, you know, really, they're going to pre-bunking the very real laptop that they had verified as authentic in March of 2020, meeting weekly with big tech, and then not telling big tech the truth after the New York Post story comes out and then censoring all of that information for the American people.
These are very troubling times.
You got big tech.
You got a corrupt media that won't play Harris or Walls in their own words.
You know, they won't carry her flip-flops.
They've given her a pass.
You know, it's like it's a ghost.
She's in the witness protection program and the witness protection program is the mob and the state-run media.
I mean, very troubling times.
But we have to deal with the hamware dealt.
We could sit here and whine and bitch and moan and complain all day, but it's not going to win the election.
What will win the election is all of you taking it seriously and knowing you don't want your country to head down this road that she would take us with her radicalism and Green New Deal, Medicare for all, no private health care, gun confiscation, the highest tax increase in world history,
no fracking, no drilling, decriminalizing illegal immigration, free health care, housing, education, college education in Minnesota, the fund dismantled, no bail law insanity.
In this Harris-Biden economy, you can save money with your cell phone bill.
Join my cell service, pure talk.
You get the exact same service as Verizon ATT and T-Mobile, the same 5G network, the same exact cell towers.
About half the price.
Average family save close to $1,000 a deal, sorry, a year.
They have better deals than the big carriers.
For $25 a month, you'll get unlimited talk, unlimited text.
You'll get mobile hotspot roaming in 50 countries, five gigs of data where you can browse the internet for 135 hours, stream 1,000 songs, and watch 10 hours of video.
Stop overpaying for wireless, get 5G coverage from Pure Talk, make the switch, dial pound 250, say the keyword save now, do it now.
You'll save an additional 50% off your first month.
No contract to sign, no activation fee.
Keep your phone, keep your phone number, pound 250.
Keyword, save now.
So here's where we are.
We are four days away from this, I guess, critical debate, probably the only debate that is going to take place.
And that will be run by the fake news media.
And it will be in Philadelphia.
We will be there for this debate.
Back to Pennsylvania we go.
David Muir and Lindsey Davis are going to moderate the debate.
Now, this is a network that detests Donald Trump.
I have a question for Bob Iger.
He's the CEO because his heir apparent apparently is a huge Biden-Harris supporter.
He has George Stephanopoulos on the payroll.
Is Bob Iger going to demand that his network news team do a good, fair, and balanced and objective debate?
Or is he going to allow them to be prejudiced and have an agenda and clearly not hold Kamala's feet to the fire and ask her the questions up to this point she's not asked?
You've got ex-Clinton aide, Georgie Stephanopoulos, claims to be an unbiased journalist, but he's anything but.
He's a left-wing liberal political talk show host that masquerades like so many others in the media as a journalist.
He's not a journalist.
He's a devout Democratic staffer with Clinton.
We'll show you this on TV tonight.
He's ABC's most trusted, one of their most trusted news anchors.
No, he's not.
He's not at all.
Now, is ABC going to try to be fair?
I'd say the odds are very low.
CNN, Fake Jake, and Dana Bash, who did a horrible job with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, but I thought they were relatively fair in the debate with Trump and Biden.
But, you know, I don't think there's one, I think Reince Priebus might be the only voice of reason that I've ever seen on that channel.
Nobody watches these Sunday shows anymore.
They're not worth watching.
But anyway, you know, the day and time when Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw and Tim Russert, and I was, I got along great with Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw and Tim Russert.
Got along great with them.
Tim Russert used to call me and ask me what I thought about issues.
I'd be like, why are you calling me?
And he'd go, well, you're a conservative.
I want the conservative perspective on this.
And I've heard your radio show.
I was watching your TV show, and I want to know why you think that way.
Moderated a debate once with me and Carville.
The three of us, we had a blast.
We had a great time.
Carvel and I will never agree, but he's a fun guy to be around.
I'm not going to, I'm not, you know, I was interviewing him during the DNC.
And if you talk about Tampon Tim and his hand, I don't care if they put him in the damn cafeteria.
Put him in the gymnasium.
Put those things in the cafeteria.
I don't really give a damn.
I mean, that's what he said.
But he's honest about it.
We'll never convince each other.
But he's a fun guy.
I know he's a good father.
Mary Matlin's a very nice person.
Good mom.
Good people.
Anyway, so we have a Harris aide now telling Axios he no longer supports banning plastic straws.
We haven't heard from Kamala on that topic.
Leaders have to lead and plastic straws are a big thing right now.
Yeah.
Do you ban plastic straws?
I think we should.
Yes.
I mean, look, I'm going to be honest.
It's really difficult to drink out of a paper straw when you had, if you're just like, if you don't gulp it down immediately, it starts to bend.
And then, you know, the little thing catches it.
And then, you know, so we got to kind of percept that one a little bit more.
We'll laugh.
Our giggling vice president.
By the way, it's very sexist if you point out the bizarre, nervous laughter.
I haven't heard a word from anybody on this.
How do you go from being the tiebreaking vote on empowering the IRS, funding the IRS to go after service workers and tax tips?
Now, oh, no, no, I'm for no tax on tips or the electric vehicle mandate that she signed off on.
You know, she was very clear, banning fracking, banning drilling, mandatory gun buyback program.
That's confiscation.
Decriminalizing illegal immigration, making fun of Trump and the border wall.
Oh, he thinks a bunch of terrorists are going to cross the border and invade the country, which is exactly what has happened under Biden and Harris.
Unreal.
And the border czar is nowhere to be found.
Or, you know, comparing the ICE to the KKK, and we've got to reimagine and rethink ICE and reimagine the police and defund and dismantle and bail funds.
We don't know how to, how do you change on taxing tips, the EV mandate, plastic straws, fracking and drilling?
How do you sponsor a bill in the U.S. Senate with Bernie Sanders, Medicare for all, including illegal immigrants, and that would eliminate all private health insurance, government-run universal health care, and now say only after you become the presumptive nominee?
Never mind.
How does that happen?
Or you support the $93 trillion Green New Deal, and her staff is saying, oh, never mind.
That is Marxism.
That is the end of capitalism as we know it.
And the few positions that she has taken, you know, on, I mean, would be a disaster.
Price controls to stop price gauging.
And on top of the largest tax increase in the history of the world, we don't know where she stands.
I mean, she's AWOL.
She's missing in action.
She's in the witness protection program.
It's like Trump is running against a ghost of a candidate protected by a corrupt media.
And that's why I think somebody's got to ask Disney and somebody's got to ask Bob Iger and his heir apparent if they're going to demand that their news department do their job.
Is Harris going to abandon the filibuster, as she claimed, in her own words, to pass the $93 trillion Green New Deal or not?
Is Harris going to decriminalize illegal immigration and offer free housing, health care, education, and, quote, a path to citizenship, aka amnesty, as she has claimed or not?
Will she go along with Tim Walz' pledge for legal driver's licenses for illegals and college education for illegals or not?
Does she stand by her tweet supporting a bail fund four days after a police precinct was burned to the ground in the rioting in the summer of 2020, nearly 600 riots?
Does she stand by her statement that rioters won't stop and shouldn't stop and that we're not going to stop?
That would be insurrection if your nickname was Liz Cheney.
Does she still support the bill she co-sponsored with Bernie Sanders, just like she co-sponsored the Green New Deal, Medicare for All and the elimination of private health care or not?
We call that Bidenomics, and we're very proud of it.
Is she still proud of it or not?
Does she still support defunding, reimagining ICE and reimagining and defunding and dismantling and no-bail laws of the police or not?
Does she still want Americans to have the courage to never say radical Islamic terrorism or illegal alien or not?
These are not hard questions.
We have a right to know.
Does she still want to tax unrealized capital gains, a mandatory corporate minimum tax so that America won't have a competitive edge internationally or not?
The largest tax increase in American history is she supported or not.
And I can keep going.
And how do you explain these flip-flops that only came when she became the presumptive nominee?
Because it all seems like political expediency to me.
You know, now Team Kamo is trying to claim she's disadvantaged by the format of the debate that she agreed to.
There's got to be a reason they're hiding her.
And she'll come in prepared for this debate.
She's going to memorize her lines.
But are they going to demand a simple answer or not?
Or is Donald Trump, is it going to be three-on-one?
What's Bob Iger's Disney going to do here?
Because Bob Iger, is George Stephanopoulos going to be writing the questions for the moderators or are they going to ask the obvious questions that the American people need answers to?
Somebody needs to take charge over at that place.
Please go ahead in a handbasket.
You know, or is Disney going to be basically, you know, do they not want conservatives to go to their theme parks?
Do they not want conservatives to buy their products?
Do they not want conservatives to patronize them?
Is this a company that cares about building their business model and taking care of their shareholders or not?
Unbelievable.
Even Mark Cuban, who's supporting Kamala, this is insane.
I've interviewed and debated Mark Cuban.
I like him, you know, as a person.
I think he's a little nuts, but he's not a dope.
I think he's very good on Shark Tank.
Kamal's capital gains tax plan would kill the stock market.
Why are you supporting her?
Well, of course, but okay, so what I told him is if you tax unrealized gains, you're going to kill the stock market, right?
And it's going to be the ultimate employment plan for private equity because companies are not going to go public because you can get whipsawed, right?
I mean, my own personal experience back from the internet days, right?
All of a sudden I was cash poor, but equity rich, right?
My net worth was enormous, but the number of dollars in the bank wasn't enormous.
And so I'd have, based off of the unrealized gains, I would have had to borrow money and I effectively would have been in hocke just to pay my tax bill instead of trying to run my company and a thousand other reasons, right?
A thousand other reasons.
By the way, the Justice Department is trying to make the Justice Department Trump-proof just in case Donald Trump wins.
Independent Watchdog Group is warning the Biden administration is busy working to Trump-proof the DOJ using special authority to appoint without competition select career civil servants to key roles.
In other words, they'll have their people in there doing everything they can possibly do to stop Donald Trump from actually running the Department of Justice in a fair and legal way.
By the way, I see that the first gentleman in waiting, Doug Dougie, has granted multiple solo interviews.
Why is Kamala in hiding?
Teanna men Tim Walz, as some are now calling him, helped secure funding for Minnesota researchers who work with the Wuhan COVID lab.
We just learned from the Daily Caller today.
An earmark of $7 million to a company in Minnesota who praised the work of this publicly funded research institution.
Wow.
On multiple occasions, they work with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, according to the Daily Caller, including COVID-19 Research.
Is anyone going to ask that question?
How does she dodge all scrutiny and we have 60 days left and Americans don't know what she has said in her own words?
Bob Iger, are you going to call your news division and demand an answer?
Are you going to demand fundamental fairness?
Are you going to take the list of questions and them in their own words and insist that the people that work for you and represent, quote, your news organization do their job?
One Michigan voter said, you've got to answer the tough questions.
People need to know where you stand.
Now we're flipping and flopping on plastic straws on top of everything else.
And on top of that, actual disinformation.
The AP and Harris and Walls twist JD Vance's statement into a pretzel, completely out of context, which shows you how abusively biased they are.
Kamala, by the way, wanted to give drug dealers three arrests before charging them as DA of San Francisco.
They're going to ask about that on ABC.
California mayor, councilman, attacked by a homeless man and blamed A.G. Kamala Harris for the state's crime problems.
Unbelievable times we're living in.
Now, we did learn a lot on the economy today.
Today's unemployment report shows that numbers of jobs for workers born in America actually declined.
U.S.-born workers, their jobs fell by 1.3 million.
But we, the Biden-Harris jobs numbers for August came out this morning.
142,000 jobs created.
That's nothing.
19,000 fewer than expected.
Non-farm payroll jobs.
What is the worst part of it?
We're learning that a lot of the jobs now that we have been told about, remember the press lost their minds when Trump said 100% of the job gains under Biden and Harris were for illegals.
Well, 635,000 of the job gains were foreign-born in August, and 1,325,000 Americans lost their job.
This, according to E.J. Antonio, has been on this program many, many times.
And foreign-born workers, employment for them has gone up 4.4 million under Biden-Harris.
Unreal.
We have a lot more crime, murder, rape, violence against Americans because of their open borders policies.
800-941-Sean is our number if you want to be a part of the program.
You don't have to wait until November to start taking our country back.
Now, let me tell you about a new Visa credit card.
It's built by conservatives for conservatives.
It's called COIN.
You spell it C-O-I-G-N, and it supports your values as a conservative.
A lot of these companies do not.
Anyway, 100% U.S.-based customer service and consumer protections.
And you could use Coin everywhere Visa is accepted.
It's a great-looking card.
You're going to be proud to pull it out of your wallet and take pride or your purse or your pocketbook.
And, you know, take pride using it.
It's bright red.
We the people written right on the front.
And coin is how you can fight for your future, kind of do it one swipe at a time and is supporting a family, a company that shares your values.
Plain and simple.
You can get woke out of your wallet, out of your purse.
Start shopping with America's Conservative Card.
I'm signing up myself.
Just go to their website at C-O-I-G-N.com.
That's coin.com, C-O-I-G-N.com.
Make sure you select Hannity in the How Did You Hear About It section.
Just go to COIN.com today.
Sean Hannity.
No sentencing in the New York case.
We'll check in with Alina Haba and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody.
That's coming up.
We'll talk about your loss of freedoms if Harris ever wins.
And our friend, Charles Duke Tanner, set free by Donald J. Trump.
