Hour two, Sean Hannity Show toll free.
It is 800-941-SEAN.
If you want to be a part of the program in just a moment, the chairman of the very important House Judiciary Committee, Jim Jordan, will join us.
He also happened to be with the president in Philly over the weekend at the NCAA wrestling championship.
He went once before.
This was his second time.
We're going to talk to him about activist judge uh justices, uh, the overarching Trump agenda, uh how we get to reconciliation, and all of these activist judges and what the what what Congress can do to stop this judicial activism.
Anyway, when the president was at the wrestling match, this was the reception he got.
Thank you.
And it was pretty cool because after this guy won the championship, he he literally saluted President Trump, all the wrestlers after the match went over to shake his hand.
Jim Jordan was there, had a front row seat, sir and and by himself.
Now you wrestled in college, right?
You went to uh Ohio State.
I wrestled uh coach of Ohio State, but I wrestled for the University of Wisconsin.
And it won and it was a fun night, Sean.
You're exactly right.
And in the reception the president got 18,000 crazy wrestling fans, and they uh you know the President Trump has an uh an athlete's mindset.
He knows how to win.
And wrestling people appreciate that.
They're middle class, working class folks, and it's just great people who love what the president's doing, so it was a great reception.
By the way, the heavyweight match where the the the young man from that went to our Service Academy, the Air Force Academy, Lieutenant Um, and then got went for his last year's red shirt year, decided to go to Oklahoma State, and he's gonna go serve our serve our country.
Um he won that match.
I'm convinced.
In fact, I told the president this.
I said he won because you were there.
That he he the he knew that the commander chief, his boss was gonna be there, and he because there's no way he should beat Gable Stevenson, the Olympic champion who who he had to compete against.
Um they'd wrestle a hundred times, and the guy from Minnesota went 99, but not Saturday night, and it was I think it was because President Trump was there as you know, he he said, I'm gonna be wrestling in front of my boss, and he went out there and just wrestled an amazing match and won it.
That sort of was the the key event of the evening.
It really was a special night.
You know, we're we're living through what I believe is the most consequential and and potentially transformational time in the country.
And if you look at what the president is doing, everything from you know identifying known terrorists and murderers and rapists and cartel members and gang members and deporting them, what he's trying to do with tax cuts to make them permanent and no tax on tip social security or overtime.
Uh trying to get that reconciliation billed together that would would would bring the House and Senate in sync is gonna be a heavy lift, uh pushing for energy dominance, trying to end war in Europe and war in the Middle East, and then having to deal with the issue of Iran separately, which is not gonna be easy.
Um, if he succeeds, he'll be the most consequential and transformational president in a hundred, hundred and fifty years.
Easy.
Yeah.
And in that sense, I've never seen such an ambitious agenda.
How do you see all of this unfolding?
Because I I have a lot of hope and a lot of belief and promise that he's going to get there.
I do too.
And and and first of all, you the the the list you gave, President Trump told us he was going to do all that.
I love people who get into office and actually do what they said, and no one does it better than President Trump.
He said he would secure the border.
That's already happened.
We didn't think it could happen in ten weeks, but it's it's already happened.
Lowest encounters we've ever seen.
He's sending bad guys who did bad things back to their country, not keeping the bad guys here, and yet some judge say that, you know, no, turn the plane around, bring the bad guys back.
that makes no sense.
He's doing what he said.
He's going to deliver on tax cuts, deliver on energy policy.
We want a commander-in-chief who projects strength like he does from the Oval Office and does what he says.
And he's doing that.
Now we just need help.
We need to come together on this reconciliation package as you indicated, because we don't want our constituents' taxes to go up, which they will if we don't get to renew the tax cuts that President Trump put into place back in his first term.
So uh I'm really I'm like you.
I think he's doing exactly what he said.
That's why the country appreciates it.
And the the left who attacks him, they can keep doing it, but they'll stay at twenty-seven percent approval rating if they do, because the country elected President Trump to do what he said, and that's what we gotta get accomplished.
All right, so John Thune has an aggressive timeline and agenda, but you've got to get the House and the Senate together.
Um we have thin margins in terms of of a majority in both houses.
Not an easy lift.
How do you see this coming together?
Well, the speaker's indicated we he he'd like to have this done before you know Memorial Day, so we gotta we gotta get after it.
I think uh I hope that can happen.
I think it can.
We just gotta work together, just like we did last week or two weeks ago when we said we're gonna pass a continued resolution which funds the government at current levels, made a few cuts, but when you fund the government at current levels, you're actually saving money because this place always spends more, and we sent that over to Chuck Schumer and they went along with it.
So we we need to focus like that, where we work together as a team under the leadership of President Trump, and if we do that, I'm confident we can get there.
Um again, not easy, but you know, in life, nothing worth doing is ever easy.
That's just the way the good Lord made things.
So we're gonna have to work together and recognize when you have a small majorities, you stick together as a team and you do what you said.
And if and if we can do that, we're gonna be just fine.
No, I tend to agree with you.
Look, i uh the the you know, when you think of all the the issues that uh uh you have been on this show talking about over the years and all that the president's been through and all the times you've been on television, and you know, from the Russia hoax and and ever the Pfizer warrants and the dirty disinformation dossier and the trumped up charges, no pun intended, you know, this novel legal theory in New York and and all the law fair, etc.
etc.
So there was an uh an accidental edition of uh of this journalist, uh Jeffrey Goldberg on this on this signal group text, which uh granted was a mistake, but it was not intentional.
And meanwhile, we just witnessed the last four years, in my view, the single greatest national security crisis that has ever happened in our country with open borders, known terrorists, murderers, rapists, cartel members, gang members.
They lied about it for four straight years and told us that it wasn't happening.
They lied about Joe's cognitive decline.
Both these things are clear and present dangers to national security.
Now we're supposed to believe the left actually gives a rip about national security or gives a damn about it.
I don't believe it.
Yeah, and okay, and and look, there was no classified information.
The the mission w with uh attacking the Hooties was a success.
I mean, come on, but the left is going to because what else are they gonna talk about?
You know, that they're they're the party of the crazy policies.
We're the party of common sense.
So what else are they gonna talk about?
Of course they're gonna go after this, but uh I think you you rightly point out the mission was successful.
There was no classified information discussed on this in this conversation.
Um It was an honest mistake, not systemic institutional, you know, policies that are dangerous to the lives of Americans as evidenced by the number of Americans murdered, raped, and victims of violent crime.
Yeah.
I mean m uh the so uh totally right, but the the the the Democrats are gonna try to jump on anything because everything else that they're every position they have is crazy.
I mean, I always say their their p the the divide is crazy versus common sense.
It's crazy to defund the police, it's crazy not to have a border, it's crazy to have men compete against women in sports.
It's crazy for a judge to say, oh, take the hardened criminals, gang members who came to this country illegally.
Turn that the plane that's taking them back to their country, turn it around and bring it back to America.
That is crazy.
So and it is crazy.
I mean, just you can just keep going on and on.
The country understands it.
Um, and again, it's why they're their their support of President Trump is as strong as it is.
Well, then explain to us, because the House is now scheduled to vote on legislation to limit these nationwide injunctions by these low-level judges.
Uh that that to me seems like the best option available to the Republicans right now to stop this.
Uh, because we know what they're doing.
I mean, it's it's very obvious.
They do their little judge shopping, and uh and they're trying to usurp the power of the president uh as constitutionally mandated that he has it.
I mean, the Alien Enemies Act, for example, it already has undergone judicial review, a Supreme Court decision determined that the president has a right to use it for prior presidents have, and that if the president makes that decision, it's not even subject to judicial review.
And yet here we are.
Yeah, no, great point, Sean.
I think the president is on solid statutory ground.
You meant the alien enemies act says that if there's a predatory incursion, he can deal with it.
That's commander chief.
Well, what else are these gang members?
Turn the ongo gang members some business.
What is it?
They're not Boy Scouts coming here.
Of course it's predatory what they're doing.
Second, he's on strong constitutional ground.
Article two, section one, first sentence says executive power shall be vested in a president of the United States.
So strong constitutional ground, strong statutory grounds, and then you just couple it with common sense.
I said the couple times.
The judge's decision is stupid.
His order is stupid.
And by the way, this is the same judge who was involved in all that's crazy by the court warrants back when they fight on President Trump's campaign.
But this judge said, bring the bad guys back.
What?
They're terrible.
Because these evil things, and they're here illegally.
So all three of those, and what we're saying is that issue, but more importantly, the the injunctions happening around the country.
We need legislation which says those injunctions.
Some judge in Timbuktu, California issues some crazy injunction, it applies to the parties in the case in that respective jurisdiction, not nationwide.
So we passed that two and a half weeks ago out of the judiciary committee, and the speaker's going to bring it to the floor uh next week.
All right, quick break.

Thank you.
We continue now with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan is with us.
So this this is how crazy this party has gotten.
And and you mentioned that they're championing the right of men to play women's sports.
They're standing up for the right of illegal immigrants, including Trend Aragua gang members, over the safety and security of the American people.
They claim we are living through a constitutional crisis because we're identifying hundreds of billions of dollars in waste fraud and abuse.
Uh a party now that is championing uh many people on the left, you know, they champion this guy that killed the United uh healthcare CEO, this uh Luigi Mangioni.
Um they lied about the violence in the summer of 2020 that killed so many Americans and injured so many uh thousands of cops.
They lie about the violence because of their open borders.
So now they're the party that is celebrating the fact that bullets are being fired at Tesla dealerships, they're celebrating the f those that are putting Teslas on fire, they're celebrating those that put charging stations on fire, and those that are threatening to kill Elon Musk.
What has this guy done to deserve this?
No, he's yeah, all he's done is identify stupid spending, and instead of helping us get rid of the stupid spinning, they attack the guy who exposed the stupid spending and they burn up his uh Tesco cars and they attack you's it's it's it's just wrong.
Not to mention the the the left now is also the party that says, Oh, we we we we like what the pro Hamas anti-Semitic stuff going on just campus.
Like you gotta be kidding me.
That's how that's how again how crazy it's gotten.
But um I say God bless Elmas.
I mean, what he's done in fighting the censorship and standing up for uh stopping the crazy spending, but he's doing the country a service and and the treatment he gets on the left is just that crazy.
It really it really is.
What is it w when you see this chaos?
I've never seen the Democratic Party in such disarray.
What do you attribute it to?
And what do you make of the fact that they want Schumer out, and it looks like Bernie Sanders and AOC and Jasmine Crockett have emerged as the the voice of leadership of the Democratic Party?
Is that I make the argument I I got into this with Patrick Bet David last night on TV a little bit.
You know, he thinks he he thinks that they they don't represent the party, and I'm like, no, the problem is that I think they do.
I think that is the party now.
And Chuck Schumer is now gonna have to acclimate himself further hardcore AOC left, or he's gonna be out of a job any day.
Yeah, it's it's certainly you're right.
It's certainly the energy in the party.
I always say not all Democrats are crazy, but the left that controls their party has the energy in the party.
Uh they are crazy.
You can just go.
Well, okay, well, who are the people that name one Democrat that stood for the first lady for the president for the mothers that lost children at the joint session for a young man that beat cancer for the wife of a slain officer that was a hero.
Uh did any and they're just holding up their bingo cards, they wouldn't stand for any of those people.
Tell me, tell me that's not groupthink, and that's not the whole party being radicalized.
Well, it it sure appeared that way.
You're exactly right.
I mean, they didn't Corey Copper Tori gave his life for his for his wife and daughters.
And when when the president recognized that family, they didn't didn't say for for for them either.
I mean, it's like it was ridiculous.
So uh you're right, but I do think there's the the it's it's the left.
It is the left, the hard left has control of that party.
And they're the ones for censorship, they're the ones for all the crazy things we've talked about.
And it's unfortunate because you had a you know the Democrat Party, which you know used to be, well, I think historically you you could you could work with them on the case.
They used to stay they used to at least make the appearance of trying to stand up for working men and women, and and now you know, now they're fighting to save, you know, uh DEI radicalism, wokeism, green new dealism, transgenderism, hundreds of billions of dollars abroad.
That's that is just out of control.
That is insane.
Yeah.
No, and it's it's and but if they're gonna is they're gonna continue to embrace those those crazy concepts, and we just got to stand stand firm on what we call the voters we're gonna do.
We do that, better for us politically, but more importantly, it'll be good for the country.
Good for the American.
Jim Jordan, always appreciate you.
Ohio Congressman, House Judiciary Committee Chairman, thank you, sir.
800 941 Sean is our number if you want to be a part of the program.

We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.

All right, 800-94-1, if you want to be a part of the uh program.
Um let me play Jasmine Crockett, because it's like uh she says a dumb thing a day, and she was talking about beating up and hitting Ted Cruz in the head hard, and this on the heels of her saying, you know, she wants to take down Elon Musk.
Um, and the warning that she got from the attorney general Pam Bondi.
Uh, this is her now going after uh Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
Um, because we in these hot ass Texas streets, honey.
Um we got Governor High Wheels down there.
Come on now.
And and the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot ass mess, honey.
So um so yes.
The voice of the Democratic leadership today.
Let's go to CJ.
He's in the the great state of Texas.
God bless Texas CJ.
What's going on?
Mr. Sean, this is truly an honor.
I've been the honor is all mine.
Yeah, I've been watching and listening from the day of Hannity and Combs.
So this is a little nervous.
Anyway.
Oh, don't but let not your heart be troubled.
You're among friends.
We're glad you're out there.
Yes, sir.
Uh I uh I bought a Tesla uh model three just because of uh what's going on with Elon.
I mean I they it spurred my interest.
I've been a motorhead all my life.
Uh the smell of exhaust, the uh gasoline, you know, it's it's always you know, I've I've been a motorhead.
Electric car just didn't resonate with me.
But when he started doing what he's doing and taking the hits that he's taken, I was like, this guy's going down in history is on the level of founding fathers.
I mean, he is He's like the men that built America.
He's like the the real pioneers.
He's taken America to just this whole of the level, and he's doing it uh, you know, almost single-handedly, and you know, the country should be blessed to that he's Willing to sacrifice and serve our country and save us money and rescue our astronauts and and help out our fellow citizens when they have no communications with the outside world, but no, there's just nothing but vitriol and hatred from the left.
It's sad.
I'm glad you bought one.
Which one did you get?
The model three.
Yeah, I got the S plat.
If you're a motorhead, now think about this.
It's got uh over a thousand horsepower.
It goes from zero to sixty in two point oh seconds.
By the way, it was funny when I had Elon on, I talked to him about it.
I said it goes zero to sixty in zero point two seconds.
He goes, uh hold on a second, you'd be dead.
Yeah.
Um but it goes for zero to sixty, it's self-driving.
It's the most American made car.
I was my friends had been telling me, you know, all a lot of all my I have a number of friends that are motorheads like you, a number of them.
And for years, they just it's hounding me.
Why don't you get this car?
And they'd let me drive their Porsche or they let me drive their whatever car.
The car that impressed me the most is the Corvette Z06.
That's the one I like the the most with the Z07 package with the carbon fiber.
All right, so I didn't uh and and I had all these friends that had Teslas, and they all bragged about you they they're like, you don't know what you're missing.
And now that I've driven their Teslas and and I'm I'm giving one away on this show, and you just go to Hannity.com and put in the word patriot, you pick the one that you like.
Um you get to register once a day every day for till April the eleventh.
I have never been more impressed with with advanced technology by one individual company like this.
Now I know other car companies will copy them, but he's the guy that thought of all this, not them.
Said mine is model three, and mine has a supervising self-drive or supervised self-driving too.
I mean, it mine's loaded up to the point to where it's like a model S. It's just uh it's four seconds to sixty instead of two.
Well, I I mean listen, the I have had now a number of my personal friends that have now bought Teslas because of what they're doing at Elon Musk.
And I know for a lot of people they they their cars are expensive today, and they can't afford it.
That that's why I wanted to give one away.
And uh can you can people like us save the company?
No, we can't, but I'm more I'm not I'm not as war well, I am worried about Elon.
I'm worried about his safety.
I'm worried about the safety of people at his dealerships.
I'm worried about the the people that have jobs that work on the line and people that repair them and people that sell them.
I don't want these people to lose their jobs, and I thought the left cared about working men and women.
These are high paying jobs for people.
You know, their entire families are counting on that money.
Yeah, no, it's it's it's sickening.
Like I said, uh I love Elon to death for what he's doing.
It just it's I don't have the words, you know.
No, you actually do have words, and you know what?
You're very articulate, and and what you did was a great thing.
And as a motorhead, I think you're just gonna fall more in love with this technology every day.
It is it really surprised me, and I didn't buy it for the reasons that you know the left was buying Teslas, which are environmentally, it's better for that's that's all a bunch of crap to me.
And you know, this global warming, global cooling, climate change agenda that we spend hundreds of billions of dollars and wasted on, you know, even internationally.
No, I bought it because it's a great car, and it's American made.
These are American jobs, and what they're doing to this man is evil and unfair.
That's why I'm giving it away.
Anyway, the word of the day's Patriot, go to Hannity.com.
Uh CJ, we appreciate you, man.
Thank you.
Uh we'll stay in Texas Susan next on the Sean Hannity Show.
Susan, God bless Texas, glad you called.
Hi, Sean.
Hope you're doing good today.
I I'm I'm doing good.
What's going on?
I want to thank you so much for being such a good patriot for our country, Sean.
Thank you.
And uh you're very kind.
Yeah, I'm just curious, like um how you feel about the people at the AOC rallies.
I mean, do you think like they're being bought and paid for, like um by the same groups that are I don't know, doing all this uh riding and protesting.
I mean, it just seems so fishy.
Well, a lot of that's organized and a lot of money's behind it, and it's called astroturfing.
It's very similar to people that try to call into Shows like this.
They're they're called does Rush used to refer to them as seminar callers.
And they call in with an agenda.
They call in with their talking points.
They call in it's it's an orchestrated campaign.
It's not real.
It's to create a false narrative.
It's sort of like a cheap fake, uh, to make it seem like, oh, uh rep the Republicans are really in trouble.
Now, meanwhile, we had three polls in a row that showed Democrats have an approval rating in the twenties.
You tell me who's in trouble.
Right, exactly.
And I think you're right.
They are creating this false narrative, so people will be manipulated in their minds to believing that so many people are for this.
I mean, it's just crazy what's happening in our country and the manipulation.
You know, it's scary.
That's scary.
And and the legacy media, they they're back to where they were, which is just hating Trump.
It didn't work in the election, and you know, I mean, uh you had an honest mistake that took place.
Unlike the systemic institutional lying that took place the last four years about the borders and about Joe's cognitive state and about the state of the economy.
And you would think that this is the worst thing ever, you know, this this email chain that uh unfortunately accidentally co uh, you know, included uh um an Atlantic reporter.
You know, there was no classified information.
The mission was a success.
Um I'm sure measures will be taken moving forward, but it was not systemic.
It was not a lie.
It was not a lying campaign.
They lied to us for four years about everything, including the Biden family syndicate.
But don't let not your heart be troubled, Sue uh, Suzanne.
I'm telling you right now, it's they're not getting far with this.
Um back to our phones.
The socialist utopia known as California, Mark next on the Sean Hannity show.
Mark, how are you?
Where are you in California?
I am in Southern California.
I love Southern California.
There's one problem.
California is a mess.
It is.
I'm a native, and I can assure you it is a mess.
Well, there's a uh there's a study that just came out, and it found that near just fifty percent of Californians now would consider voting for a Republican for governor.
Eighty-three percent of Californians say their gas prices are too high, seventy-three percent support the anti-crime proposition thirty-six.
Uh seventy-two percent feel homelessness is a massive problem.
Uh, seventy-one percent believe the Democrats in charge have not addressed the high cost of living.
Sixty-nine percent think Democrats in Sacramento have not done enough to bring down energy utility cr uh costs.
Sixty-two percent support a full independent investigation of the wildfires in the Pacific Palisades.
Only twenty-four percent of Californians think that men should compete in women's sports.
So it seems that even poor little Gavin is out of touch with his own state.
He is, very definitely.
But there is one little problem on that particular topic.
It's called voter ID or lack thereof in the state of California.
Uh listen, I I could tell you right now, it's I I don't think you can save the state.
I mean, it gives some hope that people are waking up.
I don't know what it's gonna take for states like New York and California and New Jersey and Illinois to wake up.
I don't know.
Now the good news is, and Bill Maher even pointed this out by 2030, Republicans will pick up as many as twelve, maybe fourteen congressional seats because people have been leaving your state New York in droves.
And as a result, other states, including swing states are gonna pick up that population.
And states with lower taxes are attracting more and more people to them.
I mean, I think Florida's biggest challenge is going to be the massive growth that it is experiencing because of it's a low-tax state.
And it's it's getting hard now.
I mean, now pro property values for people have gone up exponentially, which is great for homeowners.
I want to see that happen to everybody around the country.
I want every American to have a chance at success.
I don't I don't want this to just be, you know, an isolated few.
And that's what makes the president's tax plan so important.
You know, right now we we live In a country where the if you listen to the left, they would tell you that you know Donald Trump only cares about millionaires and billionaires, but yet only one to two percent of our budget and tax money comes from people, the bottom 50% of wage earners.
Only only one one and a half percent.
So we have distribution of wealth.
Anyway, we'll see what happens, but uh hang in there, and you might want to consider moving.
As my accountant said before I moved to Florida, whatever you do, don't die in New York.
Well, I was able to God kept me alive long enough so I didn't die in New York.
Um, Dan in my free state of Florida.
What's up, Dan?
How are you?
Sean, it is like that man said from uh Texas.
Uh it's an honor to talk with you.
Uh you you knock yourself sometimes, I think, inappropriately by saying, Oh, I'm just a talk show host.
Nobody cares what I think, and nothing could be further from the truth.
You're special.
You've kept me going, you and all the people at Fox, these last ten years been horrible for me, but uh I know I talk too much, and I don't want to bury this headline, Sean.
I believe when Donald Trump was shot, and he was shot, and a dear man gave his life uh for his family, and two people are horribly wounded.
I was shocked too, and that everybody and I was how could that happen?
But what I've learned when Donald Trump finally got sworn in, it seemed to be an eternity from November the 5th to January the 20th.
And it's particularly tragic because at least half the country hates his guts.
Uh they want him dead, they wanted them dead for ten years.
But let me let me help you with one thing, and I'm only looking at the clock, which is the only reason I would interrupt your your thoughts.
He put all his chips in the middle of a table, and they threw everything they they had at him and everything they could make up against him.
And it was either the White House or the big house.
And he did it for his country.
And yes, that day in Butler, when I saw the blood on his face, even after he rose up and put his fist in the air in that iconic shot, I thought we might lose him.
And that's how evil the left is now become in this country.
It's downright frightening and chilling.
I've got to run.
