| This is an iHeart Podcast. | |
| All right. | |
| Thank you, Scott Shannon. | |
| And thanks to all of you for being with us right down, our toll-free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| It's 800-94-1 Sean if you'd like to join us. | |
| We've got a lot going on today, a lot of dirty tricks that we are watching. | |
| I think this may be one of the most dangerous things that Biden and Harris have ever done. | |
| And it involves the war in Europe. | |
| It involves Ukraine. | |
| It involves Russia. | |
| It involves a decision that they have made last minute in terms of giving the green light and the weaponry to Ukraine to strike Russian territory with U.S. provided missiles. | |
| And which could result in, because we know that Vladimir Putin has already responded to this, and he's now threatening to use nuclear weapons if Ukraine fires American missiles into Russia. | |
| They have already fired some. | |
| And so far, Russia is claiming that it shot down these missiles and has issued, you know, a nuclear threat. | |
| The Russian defense ministry is now saying that they defeated the first missile attack shortly before the Kremlin, then updated their nuclear weapons doctrine to allow for nuclear strikes in response to foreign ballistic missile attacks. | |
| This is what Joe Biden is doing. | |
| Now, this is the same Joe Biden. | |
| If you recall, at the beginning of this conflict, he was the one that said all the troops were they were mobilizing on the border with Ukraine. | |
| And stupidly they were suggesting, well, we don't really believe he's going to go into Ukraine. | |
| And I'm sitting there saying, well, why would he be moving, you know, entire battalions and all this weaponry on the border of Ukraine if he wasn't planning on invading Ukraine? | |
| You have to be pretty stupid to think that way. | |
| And Biden said, well, he was asked about it, and he said, you know, well, what would what are you going to do? | |
| It well, is it depends. | |
| Is it going to be a minor incursion? | |
| Russia might be held accountable. | |
| If it invades, and it depends on what it does. | |
| It's one thing if it's a minor incursion, and then we end up having to fight about what to do and not do, etc. | |
| Okay. | |
| That minor incursion has destroyed half of Ukraine. | |
| I don't even know how they begin to rebuild. | |
| But this is now threatening the entire continent of Europe into a broader conflict based on what Joe has done here. | |
| So in the beginning, just to give you a quick history, the Biden Harris administration, they have been telling Zelensky and the Ukrainians how to fight their war from the get-go. | |
| Remember, Poland was going to give Ukraine 28 Migs so that they could battle back in terms of the air power that Russia was using early on in the conflict. | |
| And it was Biden and Harris that vetoed Poland from giving the 28 MIGs. | |
| They have spent over 200 billion taxpayer dollars. | |
| Ukraine happens to be one of the most mineral rich countries on earth. | |
| They should have been paying us for the weaponry we are providing. | |
| This unfortunately, because it's been so poorly managed, has become a proxy conflict between the U.S. and Russia, not really between Ukraine and Russia. | |
| And meanwhile, on the other side of the world in the Middle East, uh you you have a total betrayal of our closest ally, Israel, as even Benjamin Netanyahu confirming that Wink and Tony Blinken, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden giving into the pro-Hamas wing of their party, have been withholding support and weaponry. | |
| We saw that after the April attack, direct attack by Iran. | |
| They usually use their proxies. | |
| Hamas has Balaz Lamak Jihad, the Hoody rebels, but they would they only helped Israel defending itself, told them to stand down, not retaliate against Iran. | |
| Meanwhile, Iran is is supplying all the weaponry for all of these various groups. | |
| They helped orchestrate the October 7th, 23 attack that murdered Israelis, the equivalent of 40,000 Americans in a day, and kidnapped Even Americans, and they kidnapped hundreds of people. | |
| And then, of course, the rapes that are on video, I've seen them. | |
| The beheadings on video, I've seen them. | |
| You know, the torture on video, I've seen it. | |
| And I wish the Israeli defense forces would release all of it and allow the likes of me to air it on television. | |
| I I tried hard to get permission to do it, but out of respect for the families, they don't want to do that. | |
| But they did want people in the media to know exactly what went on. | |
| And it was right of them to do so. | |
| So here we are after and remember also it was Biden and Harris that said, well, you can't use cluster bombs. | |
| You can't use this bomb. | |
| You can't use this weapon. | |
| I mean, they've been putting handcuffs on the Ukrainians and their ability to fight back. | |
| And the thing that has been most effective for Ukraine in this conflict in this war has been the use of drones and using those drones inside of Russian territory. | |
| I think that that is the single best thing that they have done that has gotten Vladimir Putin's attention. | |
| And, you know, to the credit of the Ukrainians, I mean, Putin is an evil SOB. | |
| If he if he had if he had territorial claims, as he says he does, and he wanted to discuss it, you know, certainly there were other means of dealing with this. | |
| But again, we're at a point where Vladimir Putin doesn't give a flying rip what Joe Biden thinks. | |
| He doesn't care what Kamala Harris thinks. | |
| He didn't care about what Barack Obama thought. | |
| Notice the only four years there was no conflict or no issues is when Donald Trump was president. | |
| So here, usually a sitting president would never do what Joe Biden did here. | |
| And they now, at this last minute, with, you know, hit what's today's day? | |
| Today is the 19th of November. | |
| We're now two months away from a new president and inauguration, and they decide to purposefully escalate this conflict, and they are allowing Ukraine to strike Russian territory with these ballistic missiles provided by the U.S. And it's unlikely to change the course of the war in any substantial way. | |
| However, then the Russians have responded by changing and updating their nuclear weapons doctrine to allow for nuclear strikes in response to foreign ballistic missiles and attacks. | |
| Well, great job, Joe. | |
| I mean, this is a disaster. | |
| It is an unmitigated disaster. | |
| But there's your modern Democratic Party. | |
| And then I saw in the Washington Times today, the Biden Justice Department has quietly dismissed charges against two Jordanian immigrants who were arrested after driving their truck into a vehicle barrier on a marine base earlier this year, leaving a host of questions about the incident. | |
| Why would you ever do that? | |
| Documents detailing the arrest obtained and released by Judicial Watch indicated that these guys snuck across the U.S. Mexico border. | |
| What a shock in April, were processed, released by Homeland Security, and they didn't detail any immigration history beyond that, but they claimed to be making a delivery run and were asked to wait while their identities were being checked, but the driver continued to move the box truck forward. | |
| And anyway, they raised the vehicle barriers and arrested these guys. | |
| Immigration authorities initially told base officials that he was on a terror watch list. | |
| I mean, they're covering up it seems to me they're covering up something here. | |
| I don't know what. | |
| I really don't. | |
| But again, reckless behavior. | |
| What have I been saying? | |
| I've been telling everybody that it's not a matter of if it's a matter of when. | |
| We're going to wake up one day and we're going to be a victim of a massive terror attack because of Harris Biden unvetted illegal immigrants, including known terrorists that they have allowed into this country. | |
| On top of the murderers, the rapists, the violent criminals, the gangs, the cartels. | |
| They've allowed all of them in. | |
| And we have an update. | |
| Donald Trump is committed as ever to deporting those criminals and others that didn't respect our laws, our border, and our sovereignty. | |
| We have an update on lawfair. | |
| I'm not sure yet completely how to analyze this, but Judge Juan Mershawn, this is the ridiculous case whose statute of limitations had long since passed. | |
| The 34 counts against that they piled on Donald Trump at court. | |
| It's called you know it's basically stacking charges. | |
| You stack the charges against somebody and you take one charge and you make the 34 charges. | |
| But anyway, the this this will never hold. | |
| But the judges considering how to proceed with sentencing, given that Donald Trump is now the president elect, and the sentencing that was scheduled for November the 26th has been adjourned, no explanation. | |
| And the judge is still considering how to proceed with sentencing, given that Trump is now the president elect and preparing to take office in January. | |
| The problem in all of this is you've got a politicized district attorney by the name of Valvin Bragg that is in a heavily, heavily blue district, as blue as it gets, or like 80% of people in New York City are registered Democrats, and he's up for re-election, and it's good for his political prospects to be as anti-Trump as possible. | |
| But anyway, it's the Manhattan prosecutors under Bragg are said to tell Mershaw whether they believe the case should be moved to the sentencing phase, considering Trump's new status. | |
| I mean, we we really don't know what's going to happen here. | |
| It may be better because in the sense, I mean, there's even talk of leaving this open for four years while Donald Trump is the president and picking it up when he's when he when he leaves the Oval Office. | |
| This is madness. | |
| There should be some level of prosecutorial discretion here. | |
| And if you think Democrats can't get any sneakier or more hypocritical, I mean, we had a September Supreme Court ruling in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as it relates to what represents a valid ballot, properly dated, etc. | |
| And signed by the voter, uh, would only be included. | |
| The Supreme Court was very, very clear in their decision. | |
| And anyway, so that was September. | |
| I don't know why, but there were certain counties in Pennsylvania that decided they didn't care what the Supreme Court said. | |
| And so they decided to count ballots that the Supreme Court had just ruled were not legal. | |
| And anyway, the Republicans went back to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and they have upheld their own decision from December or September, which shouldn't surprise anybody. | |
| It was a 7-0 decision. | |
| And even the Democratic Governor Shapiro, who should have been more outspoken before this, in my view, had sided with the state Supreme Court. | |
| One Trump campaign official says Pennsylvania Democrats will face jail time over this ballot recount and not following the law, especially a recent Supreme Court decision in that state. | |
| We'll see what happens with that. | |
| Even uh one editorial came out said Pennsylvania Democrats showed their true disdain for democracy and what they're doing here. | |
| You want to talk about election denialism. | |
| You notice Democrats don't seem to care when Democrats do it. | |
| And what they were doing in Pennsylvania clearly was a violation of law. | |
| Thank goodness Republicans, they they got a little more savvy this time, and they've been a lot smarter. | |
| Now, one issue we're going to go over in great specificity in detail is the issue of Donald Trump's appointments and the possibility that in some cases he if he doesn't think he can get things done fast enough with the advising consent of the U.S. Senate, he would use what's called a recess appointment. | |
| Ideally, you'd never want to do that, but it's hardly unprecedented. | |
| Obama made over 30 of them. | |
| Bush 43 made over 170 of them. | |
| Bush 41 used a recess appointment for a secretary of state. | |
| I mean, if you want to go over all of the different cases, you can take it all the way back recess appointments to George Washington. | |
| I'll give you the history of that in the course of the program today. | |
| Anyway, 800 941 Shawn is on number if you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Uh also Vivek Ramaswamy will join us. | |
| I love what he and Elon Musk are doing. | |
| By the way, they're staying outside of the government, and like the Grace Commission that Ronald Reagan formed in the 1980s, the best business, brightest business minds in the country. | |
| They're going to come up with ways to run government more like a business. | |
| In other words, for anybody that has ever wanted limited government and more freedom, this is probably the only opportunity that we will have in our lifetime to get rid of waste and fraud and abuse. | |
| And they're talking about cutting two trillion dollars. | |
| And I think they're serious as hell, and I think it will happen as long as Republican lawmakers go along with what their recommendations are. | |
| Those recommendations are expected on July 4th of 2026. | |
| I don't think I did the story about Alvin Bragg and Judge Mershon Justice. | |
| Let me explain what this is here. | |
| The Alvin Bragg's office announced that they would not oppose putting a pause on the criminal proceedings, meaning the sentencing of President elect Trump included until after he leaves the White House in 2029, which would keep this stupid ridiculous case alive, | |
| which by the way goes against the Supreme Court ruling on immunity because they had testimony, Hope Hicks comes to mind, uh, of the time when he was president and acts as president in the trial, which means it should be overturned anyway. | |
| There's a whole host of unconstitutionality here. | |
| The statute of limitations had run out. | |
| It was a novel legal theory that had never been tried before. | |
| But you know, it was based this this is madness. | |
| But anyway, the DA's office did propose December the ninth as the deadline for their upcoming filing, which will quote consider the possibility of dismissing the case. | |
| Judge Mershon was slated to decide today whether a Supreme Court ruling grants Trump immunity from prosecution. | |
| And it does. | |
| And they had they had testimony from the time that he was president that was brought before that jury. | |
| This case is done. | |
| It is cooked. | |
| It is over. | |
| It is finished. | |
| The only reason Alvin Bragg would want to keep it alive is because politically he's in an elected position. | |
| Is that liberal New York City would like that he's persecuting Trump. | |
| When news breaks, you get the inside story that no one else has. | |
| And the behind the scenes chatter that the mainstream media doesn't even know about. | |
| This is the Sean Hannity Show. | |
| All right, 25 to the top of the hour. | |
| We have a lot of news to get to today. | |
| We'll get to your calls today. | |
| Vivek Ramaswamy is going to join us today. | |
| We'll talk about the Department of Government efficiency. | |
| They want to cut two trillion dollars, waste, fraud, abuse, bureaucracy. | |
| If you've ever wanted an opportunity for America to have limited government, more freedom, this is it. | |
| This will probably be the only shot we get. | |
| And what Vivek and Elon Musk are able to pull off here is going to be critical. | |
| Now, if you look at the issue of the controversial appointments, and it seems that the state-run media mob, first of all, what's amazing to me is when Matt Gates was, for example, announced, and it's like the media went right back into campaign mode. | |
| The legacy media, the state-run media mob. | |
| They went crazy. | |
| And I I watched with amazement, is we were kind of right back to where they left off in spite of the biggest beatdown ever. | |
| And I've been arguing that legacy media, we learned in this election, celebrity endorsements, they don't mean a damn thing anymore. | |
| Nobody trusts them. | |
| Nobody, nobody looks to Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, or John Bon Jovi or Howard Stern or call me daddy podcasters for their political opinions. | |
| Doesn't mean that they don't have good music or qual qualities at all. | |
| I'm not even being critical. | |
| We live in a free country. | |
| They're allowed to express their point of view, but in terms of their ability to influence voting, they were not successful. | |
| You know, we've had nine straight years of of unending incessant, insane Trump bashing. | |
| It's been every second, every minute, every hour of every 24 hour day, every seven-day week, every month, every year for nine years. | |
| And they just haven't stopped. | |
| And with all of all of the horrible things that they have said and done to Donald Trump, nothing stuck. | |
| The American people didn't care. | |
| They they knew about what the criticisms and they now ignore legacy media. | |
| Well, how do I define legacy media? | |
| Well, that would be every major newspaper that hated Donald Trump, which is most of them, starting with the New York Times and the Washington Post and USA Today and the LA Times. | |
| And then we talk about not one, not two, but three broadcast channels that have these crappy news half hours that fewer and fewer people are watching every day, you know, coupled with Sunday shows that nobody pays attention to anymore. | |
| They have no impact. | |
| Uh I keep telling Republicans when they go on these Sunday shows, I said, why are you even bothering? | |
| You know, the the day the the day of David Brinkley, though Bob Schiefer, uh Tim Russett, who I think was the best of all of them by far, are long gone. | |
| You know, Peter Jennings, you know, God rest his soul is, you know, he was a nice guy. | |
| You know, Peter Jennings sought out my my viewpoints. | |
| So did Tim Russer. | |
| Tom Brokow was every always very nice to me. | |
| Interviewed him many times. | |
| No problem with them. | |
| You know, Tim Russett would say, Well, tell me why explain to me why you conservatives think this. | |
| And he'd want he'd seek out my reasoning, my thought process, my rationale. | |
| And at this point, I mean, uh the the times that I've watched these Sunday programs, they're they're so meaningless. | |
| It's all a game of gotcha. | |
| I mean, the only question they seem to just always want to go back to is January 6th. | |
| I'm like, stop. | |
| I can't take it anymore. | |
| And none of these people ever brought up Kamala Harris, they're not going to stop writing. | |
| They shouldn't stop writing, and we're not going to stop supporting the 574 riots around the country. | |
| Oh, you know, Liz Cheney, I think would identify that as insurrection. | |
| She was never asked about the bail fund that she tweeted out four days after the Minneapolis police precinct was burned to the ground, the Minnesota police, the Minnesota bail fund that she tweeted out. | |
| And you're gonna see the same hysteria in terms of, you know, they're gonna treat Matt Gates, Pete Heggseth, Robert Kennedy Jr., Tulsey Gabbard, they seem to be the top picks to go after. | |
| It's gonna be just like Clarence Thomas and Kavanaugh and and anybody else they can smear slander besmirch and attack for whatever reason. | |
| But I tell you what's happening, because I thought the first day, and this is anecdotal, but I think it tells us a lot, since the election, people are not watching fake news CNN. | |
| They're not. | |
| Their ratings are in the tank. | |
| The same with MSDNC. | |
| And they're gonna try and rebuild themselves as the Trump resistance yet again, and emerge from the ashes like the Phoenix. | |
| I I just don't think it's it's it's gonna be meaningful. | |
| I mean, they'll get the loonies, they'll get the people that are shaving their heads and swearing off sex, and that are, you know, stockpiling abortion pills and you know, threatening to divorce husbands over the election. | |
| I mean, I guess that crowd will watch and and hang on every word. | |
| But it just seems in the minds of every other American, if if if starting out with Trump is evil, threat to democracy January 6th, he's horrible, he's he's a Nazi ending with a closing argument, he's a Nazi, a fascist, threat to democracies or racist, and all of his supporters are garbage. | |
| If that didn't work, why do they think this same strategy which they're now employing against Trump appointments is gonna work also? | |
| Because it didn't work the first time. | |
| You know, Lindsey Graham's a great case in point. | |
| He has voted for people in cabinet positions that he doesn't like, that he doesn't agree with, with the understanding and belief that presidents get a mandate from the American people and ought to have the people that they believe are the best person for the job, whether you agree or whether you disagree. | |
| I mean, Eric Holder, you know, the wingman of Barack Obama, great case in point for attorney general. | |
| You know, when they're down, we kick them. | |
| If you don't see Merrick Garland and his weaponized Department of Justice, I if you can't see it, I don't you're just blind. | |
| I mean, I don't feel like going over the list of examples. | |
| If you don't see that the FBI has been politicized, starting with James Comey, it should have been cleaned up by Christopher Ray. | |
| He had every opportunity to clean it up. | |
| Sadly, he didn't. | |
| I've called for him to clean it up many, many times. | |
| He had an opportunity to restore what was the world's premier law enforcement agency to its former greatness. | |
| That'll have to happen under President Trump. | |
| And the same goes with the intelligence agencies. | |
| I think they deteriorated from their former greatness under the likes of Brennan and Clapper, that's my opinion. | |
| You know, the idea that 51 former Intel officials can just flat out make up a story about a very real laptop and tell the American people because Wink and Tony Blinken organized them to say that it has all the earmarks of Russian disinformation. | |
| It's unbelievable. | |
| Or the whole FISA scam that took place, you know, using Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for dirty Russian dossier as the foundation for four FISA warrants to spy on then candidate Trump, his transition team, and later his presidency. | |
| I mean, poor Parter Carter Page, if you might remember him, he's been on the show many times. | |
| So the next thing that you're going to hear is Donald Trump is about to abuse power. | |
| He's going to have recess appointments. | |
| And it's outrageous. | |
| And he is bypassing the U.S. Constitution. | |
| This is what you're going to hear. | |
| And that is the advising consent role of the U.S. Senate. | |
| Now, just as a matter of to give you a baseline of this, because if you believe the fraudulent media, Donald Trump's plan, that I I would prefer, by the way, let me be straightforward. | |
| I would prefer that the Republicans that control the U.S. Senate give him the choice that he wants. | |
| There might be a couple that for whatever reason, legitimate or not, I don't know, uh, are going to vote against some of Trump's appointees. | |
| But anyway, this is an option because it is, you know, it would not be unprecedented the way the mob and the state-run legacy media is portraying it. | |
| Barack Obama used recess appointments 32 times. | |
| The last Republican president that won the popular vote, George W. Bush, actually made 171 recess appointments. | |
| In fact, we've had no less than 10 Supreme Court justices installed on the court through recess appointments by the president. | |
| President Eisenhower did that three times. | |
| If Donald Trump tries to do this with even one Supreme Court justice, the media would go insane. | |
| But if you I'm reading from Reuters now, past presidents have taken advantage of the recess appointment clause. | |
| Democrat Barack Obama had made 32 recess appointments, while Bush made 171 recess appointments, according to the Congressional Research Service. | |
| If you look at Wikipedia, presidents since George Washington have made recess appointments. | |
| Washington appointed South Carolina Judge John Rutledge as the chief justice of the United States during a congressional recess in 1795. | |
| Almost every president has used recess appointments to appoint judges. | |
| Over 300 such judicial recess appointments before 2000, including ten Supreme Court justices. | |
| New Jersey judge William J. Brennan was appointed to the Supreme Court by Dwight Eisenhower in 1956 by a recess appointment. | |
| Eisenhower made two other recess appointments. | |
| Chief Justice Earl Warren and Associate Justice Potter Stewart. | |
| And according to Congressional Research Service, President Reagan made 240 recess appointments, an average of 30 per year. | |
| President George H.W. Bush made 77 recess appointments and average of 19 a year. | |
| George H.W. Bush appointed Lawrence Eagleberger as Secretary of State during a recess in 1992. | |
| And Eagleberger is Deputy Secretary of State had in effect filled that role after James Baker resigned. | |
| President Bill Clinton made 139 recess appointments and averages 17 per year. | |
| So I say this because we know what's coming. | |
| Anyway, so just prepare for that. | |
| That's that's stuff we'll deal with after the new year, but I'm just giving you a preview of coming attractions. | |
| Biden, by the way, gives the World Bank on his way out on top of what he's doing with Ukraine, which is disgusting and despicable. | |
| But Biden is attempting to give the World Bank billions of your tax dollars before Donald Trump takes office. | |
| Apparently, Biden has pledged four billion dollars to the World Bank's International Development Association for the world's poorest countries during a closed door meeting at the G twenty in Rio de Janeiro. | |
| Uh, according to Reuters. | |
| More broadly, the deputy national security advisor told Reuters and reporters on Monday that Biden will highlight the funding request. | |
| America should not be funding the U.N. We should not be funding in this particular case uh billions of dollars the way Joe Biden is, uh, especially where we don't have the money. | |
| We shouldn't be funding the World Bank's International Development Association. | |
| We shouldn't be supporting other globalist organizations like the WHO or the WEF, the World Economic Forum. | |
| We shouldn't be in the Paris Accords, and I'm sure Donald Trump will get out of that. | |
| We shouldn't be doing any of that. | |
| We shouldn't be giving $200 billion in weapons to Ukraine when they are so mineral rich that they can pay for they can pay for every weapon that they're providing. | |
| And now Joe Biden gives the go-ahead, you know, for to use missiles to fire directly into Moscow. | |
| Not a good idea. | |
| By the way, things are so bad with uh illegal immigrants, Philadelphia public schools uh are having students eat lunch at 9 a.m. because the cafeteria is so overcrowded with Biden Harris illegals. | |
| Lake and Riley's accused killer was part of a of Venezuela's most violent gang, according to testimony given in that case. | |
| GOP senators are urging Trump to trust the corrupt Biden FBI to carry out honest and fair background checks. | |
| I think they've decided now that they're going to do their own background checks without them. | |
| And Biden has ramped up sanctions against Israel while doling out millions to pro Hamas Palestinians over two billion dollars in taxpayer funds there. | |
| It's pretty unbelievable. | |
| Thank goodness the American people have woken up. | |
| All right, eight hundred nine four one Sean is our number if you want to be a part of the program. |
