And I'm Ted Cruz.

And we cover the stories that you're not getting anywhere else.
We arm you with the facts to be able to know and advocate for the truth with your friends and family.
So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
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?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
You lay a finger on them, we are going to have a problem.
Does it nothing but a cover-up?
Like, it's a scam.
Let me save myself some money while also enriching myself at the same time.
It was a complete sham.
Kennedy, today you're going to follow Jesus.
And by 10 o'clock, I still want to follow Jesus, but I also want to slap the hell out of somebody.
Freedom is back in style.
Welcome to the Revolution.
Yeah, we're coming to your city.
Going to play our guitars and sing you a country song.
Sean Hannity, bringing you the new Sean Hannity show.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold, inspired solutions for America.
Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
Sean will be, well, we'll hear his interview with the president a little later in the show.
So don't go anywhere.
In the meantime, I'm here.
Normally I'm on our big flagship in New York, W-O-R, iHeartRadio, and you can hear my podcast anywhere.
You know, there's a Linda podcast now, right?
Yes.
Where do we hear that?
Also, iHeart.
Oh, my God.
It's on iHeart.
I know.
It's crazy.
All right.
Well, both our podcasts, you can hear.
And of course, we'll take your calls.
We've got a lot to talk about.
We'll get to P. Diddy.
We'll get to Little Mayor Pete.
We'll get to lots to talk about.
We got millions of things to get with.
Now, Sean is, I'm trying to follow this trip.
He was in Riyadh the first day, and then I kind of lose track.
He was in Abu Babu or Dabu Habu or I can't keep track.
Doha.
I can't keep track all these cities.
I did see.
Wow.
What was the Sex in the City movie where they go to Sex in the City of the movie number two?
Number two, where they go to Abu Dhabi.
Where were they?
Where did they go?
They're in the middle of the desert, and then they climb into like this little cave.
And there's all of these women who were, you know, five minutes prior wearing burqas and then they're all wearing Chanel and this reading, you know, Vanity Fair, you know, behind closed doors.
So when you go over to the, you know, like Qatar and all, these are brand new countries.
They were formed like in the 80s.
So everything is brand new.
It's like Las Vegas times 100 million.
You get, you're going to stay at the Marriott.
So you figure, well, actually, it's owned by Marriott.
It's the Ritz Carlton.
You figure, well, it's going to look like that Ritz Carlton over there on 59th Street, three blocks from here.
It's got wood, beautiful, wood-paneled.
You think it'll look like that.
You walk into the Ritz-Carlton over there.
It looks like the Palace of Versailles times a million.
It's like marble staircase, like you've never seen, miles long.
It's unbelievable.
Did you see what the president said when he walked into the palace in Qatar?
No.
He goes, it's a nice house.
I was like, oh, my God.
But I've actually talked to some billionaires who live in the greatest houses in America, $300 million houses.
And they say they hate to go over there because when they walk into those things, they feel like a pauper.
They feel poor.
They feel like their house is like a shack compared to that.
And I love that it was wonderful, the fighter jet escort.
The Campbells I could live without, the Camel Parade.
I don't know.
That wasn't so exciting.
It's against Camels.
It's not, you know, they were like beautiful horses.
That's one thing.
But a camel, they say it's like a horse designed by a committee.
It doesn't look right.
Listen, have you ever seen Hump Day, the commercial?
The best commercial ever made?
Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.
Hump Day is it?
Best commercial ever, bro.
What does it feature?
And why is it the great commercial?
Because Campbells look silly.
That's funny.
Nothing sillier than a Campbell.
Anyway, but it was a very, very, very productive trip.
A lot happened.
Looks like a trillion dollars is coming back to the U.S. as a result of this.
A lot of agreements made.
The president did a couple of what were described as historic speeches.
Now, I'm mentioning this because if you watch CNN or MSNBC, you never heard about it.
You didn't know anything about it.
They wouldn't show it to you.
If you read the New York Times, they didn't even mention it.
But really powerful speeches, great substance on policy and just brilliant stuff.
Now, if this were Joe Biden, the trip would have been over in an hour and be coming home on a stretcher.
And this would never have happened.
The contrast is unbelievable.
You know, I talked to these White House correspondents.
They don't like this administration because they said for four years, you got to your desk, you watch TV, you have some coffee, you talk to everybody, you hang out.
And about one o'clock, you had to go in the briefing room for 20 minutes and listen to a briefing.
Then you go back to your cubicle, your desk, you hang out, you go back to the cafe.
It was a great life.
Now with the president, this administration, every five minutes, news is breaking.
Things are happening.
Things are getting signed.
Meetings.
You're working all day.
They're running around.
That cup of coffee is still sitting on their desk from 9 o'clock.
They can't get back to it until 5 o'clock.
Nobody's ever seen a White House like this.
This is going to be literally 30 years of stuff done in four years, maybe more, maybe 50 years of stuff, transforming America.
Unbelievable.
Now, when he's done, so much will have happened.
And a guy like Pete Buttiget shows up and tries to run, a guy who did nothing, nothing for four years to sat around trying to figure out what TV show could I get on today?
What photo could I pose for?
Whole air traffic control system will be transformed.
And then they'll just look at this guy and say, you were there four years.
You didn't even notice there was a problem with it.
You didn't even mention it.
You never saw it.
Most famous Pete Buttigudge moment.
Are you ready?
Pete Buttajudge claims that he loves the environment, that he rides a bike to work every day.
So then they follow Pete Buttajudge one day coming from his home to the office, except that he takes a black SUV.
Actually, it was a couple black SUVs.
Yeah, you're right.
Excuse me.
And make sure he gets that nice carbon imprint, right?
Then gets out of his car, hops on his bike so that he can get the photo op from all his friends on the left.
He actually faked showing up on his bike.
And this is how bad.
He had the helmet, bro.
I mean, he went all in.
Well, you have to look like a total nerd.
You have to wear that helmet.
100%.
He actually stopped the SUVs like a block and a half, two blocks from the White House, and then rode.
He couldn't do it 20 blocks from the White House.
He couldn't do it five blocks away.
That's pretty funny.
He's the most used in his defense.
Yeah.
It's not really the safest city.
Probably best to just do it right next to the White House.
Yeah, that's why he had the helmet.
Not for the bike, but for the muggers.
That's what that was all about.
So I don't know how you're going to, who else is there?
There's Pete Buttigieg.
He's really, really dying to run.
Pritzker?
Pritzker.
Pritzker.
If you don't know who we're talking, we're talking about that big fat Ralph Cramden looking guy.
That big guy.
We call him Toilet Bowl Pritzker.
Yeah.
That fat slob is going to run.
Oh, my God.
Oh, he's just the most awful guy.
You remember when he spoke at the convention and he attacked.
First, he came up.
He goes, now you can hear from a real billionaire.
Well, this is a guy with $1 billion.
Trump, according to Forbes, and Forbes can't stand him.
Even they put him at $7 billion.
So to me, the $7 billion is a real billionaire.
$1 billion, you just barely made it.
And obviously, his food budget must be tremendous.
So I don't know how long that billion is going to last.
And also, if you're going to run based on the incredible job you did in Illinois, good luck with that.
So forget him.
Who else you got?
This Wesmore, who's kind of a charming guy.
Oh, yeah.
What about Newsome?
Well, people that know Newsom really well say he's not really going to run.
He's obviously campaigning for something, but apparently his family doesn't want him to run.
His kids are very upset.
His wife does not want him to run.
She's all wrapped up in some shady stuff.
It's made it really clear she wants out of the spotlight.
So he's auditioning for something with these podcasts and he's a moderate.
Maybe it's L'Oreal Hair Jill for Men.
I think he could already do that.
He'd be really good in those commercials.
He could already do that.
I think he wants a major, major television job.
And there's a problem with Newsom.
He's like Andrew Cuomo.
They look great on the campaign trail.
Wow, what a speech.
But Newsom and Cuomo, same thing.
They're salesmen.
They are not managers.
They're great salesmen.
They can't manage.
You see that in the business world all the time where a guy rises up and all of a sudden he's the CEO, but he's really just a salesman.
He can't run the place.
So that's Cuomo.
That's Newsom.
Cuomo, when he became governor in New York, what a salesman.
The briefings, wow, it's powerful.
Meantime, anytime he had to make a decision, stupidest decisions.
He's the guy that pushed this no bail, no jail, caused the crime wave.
He's the guy that closed the prisons, let everybody out.
He's the guy that took away the qualified immunity for the cops.
They had no legal protection.
That's why we can't hire any cops right now.
He's the guy that closed Indian Point.
That's 25% of our electricity.
He's the guy that picked Kathy Hochul and said, she'll be good.
I could go on, but it's only a three-hour show.
I could list every bad decision he made.
And same thing with Newsom.
He saw San Francisco when he got there, and then when he left.
Some bad, bad decisions.
We'll get to, hey, this Jake Tapper book.
I want to urge everybody not to buy the book.
I'll tell you why.
There's about six great things in there.
You've read these big revelations in the book.
I could tell them to you right now, but I'm telling you, I've seen the book.
That's it.
It's just these six things.
There's nothing else in the book.
And when you hear the things, you go, wow, I'd like to read more about that.
Well, there isn't more about it.
So if you know the six things, you don't need the book.
One, he didn't recognize cabinet members.
Anthony Blinken said a couple of times he came in the room and Biden didn't know who he was.
And then two, sometimes longtime staff members would come in.
He wouldn't know who they were.
Three, got to the George Clooney event and he didn't know who George Clooney was.
And if you heard George Clooney talk about, you can tell what an ego this guy is.
You can't believe.
Wait, did you see the George Clooney thing with the fan in New York?
Did you talk about this where he won't shake hands?
Oh.
Clearly, he's one of these germaphobes.
I don't know if it's that.
You know, he puts on these disguises.
He looks like he's 110.
Yeah, by the way, if you see Clooney in person, he's about 55% as good looking as he looks on TV.
He's not quite a good person.
But he's playing an older man, Edward R. Murrow.
So he's dyed his hair dark and he looks older now.
But he thinks he's the master of disguise because he's walking around New York while he's here on Broadway and he puts on a hat and glasses and he thinks nobody could possibly know it's him.
I know this because I see it.
There's a guy on Instagram who follows him around.
Everybody spots him.
Those celebrities spotting Instagrams put him up there all the time.
You know, he thinks it's like Clark Kent.
You put on glasses, they won't know you're Superman.
So it's clearly, but that's in the book.
Oh, the other thing is, and if you listen to my show, you would have known this a couple years ago because we had a lot of top doctors who had looked at the video of Biden and they said he's got a problem with his gait.
He can't, he needs a walker.
He's a guy that must be on a walker.
So it comes out in the book that the White House doctor was not only saying that, he said a wheelchair.
He said a walker wouldn't be enough.
He'll need a wheelchair.
But obviously for optics, they wouldn't let him do it.
And there was a meeting where they said, if he's re-elected, then we'll go to the wheelchair.
So that's basically it.
You don't need to buy the Jake Tapper book.
I just gave you everything in the book.
Now, the fascinating thing is it's all about this cover-up.
And nowhere in 600 pages does Jake Tapper ever mention that he was a part of the cover-up.
If he had any decency, they've at least three sentences somewhere.
I have to admit, by the way, that I didn't spot it.
Just lie.
Say, I didn't see it.
I didn't.
But listen, we all saw it.
Jake Tapper covered it up.
Chuck Todd covered it up.
Hey, you have that on CNN, Casey Hunt and Chuck Todd?
All of a sudden, I don't know, they're acting like somebody injected with truth serum.
All of a sudden, they know about it.
Chuck Todd's trying to come clean.
Did you really not have any idea that he was not fit to serve a second term?
Casey, we're looking forward.
We have the largest Medicaid cut in front of us.
That's Chuck Schumer.
You're facing all of this because you lost to presidential election.
And is that not Joe Biden's responsibility for deciding to run again?
We're looking forward.
That's it.
That's it.
Schumer, ducking the question.
He is among the people that are responsible for this.
The leaders of the Democratic Party, the staff of the White House.
And I have to say, I find everybody now talking to these authors.
Get out of here.
Go home.
You're part of the problem.
Now you tell us.
So I just, and I find, you know, the reason why the Democratic Party has less credibility today.
Here's an unpopular president, and the Democratic Party has a worse rating than the Republican Party with this catastrophic governance that we've seen over the last 120 days.
And yet, why is the Democratic Party in worse shape?
Because of this distrust.
What a phony baloney.
You got to give the guy credit for just a hood's boss.
I tell you, man, they just, you know what they do?
They're counting on people just not remembering.
Just moving right along.
We're with you.
Okay.
Well, he is smart.
He went on CNN.
That way nobody sees this.
This is true.
But I love that Schumer at the beginning when he's asked about it.
Look, we're moving forward.
I'm looking forward.
So you try that tomorrow if you get called into the boss's office.
I hear you at three hours late.
Look, I'm looking forward.
I'm not talking about this.
Let's get past this.
Well, the cop pulls you over.
You know, you just went through a red light.
I'm looking forward.
I'm not talking about that.
So try that excuse.
It never works.
Hey there.
I'm Mary Catherine Hammond.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started Normally, a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass.
You're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday.
On the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
I'm Ben Ferguson.
And I'm Ted Cruz.

So down with Verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
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?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
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.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Navok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yes, that's right.
Lock her up.
Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
I'm a little stuffy today, aren't I?
That's actually, I just came from, I went to a doctor.
I'd never been this doctor before.
You know, it's so annoying to go to a doctor now.
Used to be a call up.
How about two o'clock?
Okay, I'll come at two o'clock.
Now, you make the appointment.
I get 14 texts that day.
Your appointment is at 2 o'clock.
Plus, press yes, type this.
Then I start hearing from them all day and night for three days.
Fill out this form, photocopy your insurance car, all this.
Then I'm supposed to go there.
Your appointment is at 2 o'clock.
Click yes.
Then I'm on my way there.
Your appointment is in 15 minutes.
Now I go there and I'm leaving.
I leave his office.
Guy was great.
I didn't even get to the elevator.
I got a text.
Complete this survey.
How was your visit?
You got to stop with all that stuff.
Your doctor was on time?
Yeah.
That you should count yourself lucky.
Normally you get those 18,000 texts for you to be on time.
Then you wait an hour.
Oh, well, okay, that's true.
Well, but sometimes this was okay, this doctor, but sometimes it's something you don't want to do.
He was like, oh, Mark Simone's coming.
We're going to stick tubes up his nose.
Let's get to it.
Oh, my God.
So I told him I had to go because I got to fill in for Sean Hannity.
Now, you can say that to a doctor because there's some people who go, Sean Hannity, you know, some crazy MSNBC.
If it's a doctor, they love Sean Hannity.
They're conservatives.
Why?
They have dealt with government regulation and nonsense like nobody else on this earth.
So they're all conservatives.
They're all Hannity listeners.
And we're glad to have you with us.
Hey, we got a lot to get to in the next hour and next half hour and the next, we got Doug.
And make sure you call in, 800-941-7326-800-941-7326 to talk to Mark Simone.
Hey, welcome back.
It's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.

And we'll take some calls in a minute.
800-941-Sean is the number.

Hey, we'll get to P. Diddy coming up.
You can't watch the trial because unfortunately here in New York, they don't allow cameras in the courtroom.
If it's California, they televise trials.
That's why we all saw the OJ trial, the Robert Blake trial.
What else?
All the others.
I was talking to Ethan about this because I didn't know that you weren't allowed to have cameras in the courtroom in New York.
And I was like, we had to suffer through this stupid, you know, Johnny Depp, Amber Herbert.
Oh, yeah, that's another one.
California.
That nobody gave a rip about with these two idiot liberals sitting around talking about nonsense.
And I was like, you know what?
I actually want to see what happened with P. Diddy and who all the people are that went to these parties and did all the diddying.
I would like to know.
Well, it's pretty ugly.
If we had cameras allowed in the New York courtrooms, you could see the Weinstein trial.
You could have seen the Trump trial.
You could have seen, which wasn't much of a trial, but Diddy, apparently the judge reprimanded his lawyers today.
They were going at this woman way too hard today.
The story is pretty cut and dry, but they're trying to smear her, destroy her character, catch her in a lie.
So they were really badgering her today.
Now, should I explain how all this works with these guys?
Sure.
If you become a huge superstar, zillionaire, big star, especially in the music business, there are thousands and thousands of women that just line up.
And what happens is when they're 22 or 20, it's like they just go nuts.
They sleep with one after the other all day and night.
It just never stops.
But I don't think that's what's happening here.
Well, wait, let me explain.
Oh, good.
Like if you're the Beatles when they came to America, you might have been watching us a little say, oh, that's terrible.
They can't leave the hotel.
They're stuck up in the hotel room because all the mobs outside.
Don't worry about it.
There were like 150 women in the hotel suite at all times.
There was a guy that worked for Brian Epstein who told me, I said, well, what did you do?
He said, I spent every day bringing a doctor back to this because one of them or two of them had some disease and the doctor would cure it.
And I had to bring the doctor back every day.
Wow.
That story took a turn.
Jesus.
Wow.
Well, if I may, I think the audience would serve them well to know that you are a bit of a musical historian.
Yes, and I've been around all that stuff.
So what happens is after- Can I clarify that a little bit?
Well, Well, not that.
Man, this is a slippery slope for you, huh?
No, but I thought it was only P. Diddy who liked baby oil.
It's getting weird.
Well, no, no, it doesn't.
It takes two directions eventually.
So after you've had a million women, take the Beatles, for instance.
If you're Paul McCartney or John Lennon, it's enough.
You had enough.
You're not even interested anymore.
So you get married, you settle down, you won't, that's forever.
Now, there's another group that they don't give it up.
They keep going.
But after about 20 million times, you got to have something else.
So now this is what happened with Diddy.
I could name a lot of other people, but I better not.
It becomes, now I need two women at once, three women at once.
Now I need 20 people.
Now I need guys and girls.
Now I need to videotape it.
Now I need devices, things, costumes.
Yeah.
So it just, you know, I used to always come to you for, you know, you're like my Dean Martin aficia and I know, but here you are.
You're good for a freak off info as well.
Well, okay, let's go back to the rat pack because we that we can talk about because they're all dead.
All right.
Wow.
Again, strange turn.
Okay.
Okay.
Dean Martin, it was always women, one after the other, after the other, after the other.
But quick.
Sinatra lost interest after a while when he got to a certain age.
Yeah, it didn't make it.
It had enough.
That's it.
There was a guy in the rat pack named Peter Lawford.
This was one of those guys.
So he got, he had to crank it up every couple of years.
Then it was three women.
Then it was eight women.
Then it was men and women.
Then it was anything.
Wow.
Okay.
I think the difference between P. Diddy and what you're talking about are willing participants, what Cassie Ventura is talking about.
Please.
That's the argument.
So now you get nuts.
And I want to videotape all of this.
I want he's directing it like he's Spielberg.
More baby oil.
More this.
This is coming out.
More goats.
More goats.
Now, average guy listening is saying, you know, he wants to fool around with the wife one night.
And she goes, I'm tired.
Forget it.
I'm tired.
That's it.
You're done.
Now, if you're P. Diddy, you said, get over there.
There's going to be 42 people.
We're going to videotape it.
More baby oil.
This guy's going to run the lights.
And women do this stuff.
It's, I mean, and it works the other way, too, I guess, if you're a big female star.
But here's the problem here.
This is, as sick as it sounds, as awful as it sounds, this is not illegal.
There's no crime there.
So that's the problem they're having in the court, going after this guy.
You've got to prove that he held somebody against their will, kidnapped them, threatened them.
Now they've had a problem so far because that has not come out clearly yet.
So what has come out so far?
So the New York Post and USA Today are both doing a running track of what is being said in the courtroom.
To your point, no camera, so we don't know actually, you know, we're reading it.
And I think, this is my opinion, that they did, you know, they're doing these transcripts.
And I don't know how many people are following along.
Who knows, right?
But they're stating all of the people that they brought in.
And then they would say that he was a new employee.
He was an intern.
She was doing filing.
This person was the administrative whatever.
Turns out none of them are doing anything in the office except taking off their clothes and they're being forced to participate in things that they never signed up for.
And they're being trafficked, which is a huge offense and would give him a life sentence.
But yeah, hopefully this will all come out and they'll get the transparency on everything.
But so far, they haven't been able to really get the crime.
Now, you've seen that video where he beats that woman in Cassie Ventura.
Yeah, in the hallway of the hotel.
She's trying to get away.
He punches her, he knocks her down.
And then, I mean, all of a sudden, he's like, Christopher Maltasante.
He's like kicking her on the ground.
And now, I don't know why.
They haven't charged him with that yet.
Maybe, I guess, because that was in California.
It's also part of this.
So that video is shown in court quite a few times.
Yeah, so it's just to show that he is violent, that he does hold people against their will.
The problem is they've got to really clearly prove this.
So far, and he's got a jury of eight men and four women.
The thinking is that the men will be more sympathetic, but I don't think so.
Not if they have daughters.
No.
And so far, they've got basically for the first few days, it's all text.
They're showing all the different texts.
And in some of the texts, she seems like she's disgusted by it.
But many of the texts, she seems like she's a participant, a willing participant.
Well, they're together 11 years, and he dated her when she was a teenager.
She turned 21 under his helm.
So, you know, it's definitely some weird stuff going on.
I mean, he's 55 years old.
Weird.
Yeah, man.
Weird.
If you got cameramen and lighting guys in your bedroom, you're definitely weird.
So it's going to be, I mean, if I had a guess, I'd say this guy never, ever, ever gets out of jail again for the rest of his life.
But so far, maybe they're just starting slowly.
They haven't really gotten nailed down the illegal stuff, but he is one sick guy.
Now, again, all this disgusting stuff he's doing, that's not the crime.
So they're going to have to get to the other part.
It is not a crime to be gross.
No.
No.
I'm editing myself here.
There's certain names I could mention, but a lot of celebrities would be in jail right now if this stuff was a crime.
But hey, even I'm trying to think what stories I could.
Like even at the Grammys, there's certain guys that are big music stars that come to the Grammys, and they're going to bring with them like 20 women to just take care of them all day long.
And the Grammys is forced to employ them.
They told you, I got to put them on the payroll.
Same idea, be on the payroll.
So one producer said, how do I put on the, they say, you call them dancers, put them down as dancers.
So if you look at the books, there's like 40 dancers on the payroll.
If you watch the show, you didn't see anybody dancing.
There were no dancers on the show.
Just for you.
He's like a solo piano.
It's so weird.
Yeah.
But we'll get to that.
We'll get back to P. Diddy.
It's absolutely awful.
And hey, you know what name you haven't heard in a week and a half?
You know who just vanished off the news?
You haven't heard this guy's name.
Garcia.
You remember for weeks, this is all they cared about is Garcia, the MS-13 wife beater gang member who was sent to El Salvador.
Every one of these CNN, MSNBC, all these politicians, they were going to fight.
Well, they've moved on to the next criminal.
They're at the Laney Hall.
They got like five or six of them there.
They're like, oh, we're going for a bigger.
But they said this Garcia case is the most important thing.
And on principle, they're going to fight to the death to bring this guy back.
Well, apparently they looked at the polling and the focus groups.
It wasn't registering, so they forgot about it.
You'll never hear them.
Like moving on, enjoy Sakat.
Never mind.
If you're a Garcia or the family, hire a PR person.
Get yourself back in the news.
Maybe, maybe they'll pay attention to you again.
So let's take some calls.
Let's go to Janet in California.
Janet, how you doing?
Hi, thank you.
So going back to your opening block where you were talking about the state of Joe Biden being non-compassmentists and Chuck Todd and Jake Tapper.
And I was saying that nobody has asked the Easter Bunny when what he knew and when he knew it.
Oh yeah.
Remember that with the Easter Bunny where I totally confused Biden and the bunny almost slapped me, wake up.
What's wrong with you?
It was Trump in a costume, bro.
Yeah.
So good point, Janet.
Where are you in California?
Orange County.
Oh, okay.
It's pretty good there, right?
It's not as bad as those other parts of it.
It's purple.
So, yeah, I just think I've watched so many newscasts and listened to podcasts, and they always bring up these other people.
And I'm thinking the obvious one was when the Easter Bunny had to pull him away from the press.
Yeah, no, that's a good point.
Do you listen to my podcast?
I'm sorry, I have it.
Do you listen to Linda's podcast?
No.
Actually, I just said I'm listening to the show today, and I heard your opening remarks, and I just thought, why doesn't somebody bring up the Easter Bunny?
Oh, okay.
I got a better question.
Why don't you listen to our podcast?
I heard the Easter Bunny has a podcast.
Yeah, okay.
Everybody has a podcast.
Thanks for calling, Janet.
It's really annoying.
Everybody has a podcast.
Everybody does have a podcast.
My dentist has a podcast.
Everybody I know in, I don't want to mention names.
They're all over New York.
They're in the real estate world, whatever.
Did you hear my podcast?
No, I didn't.
You got to listen.
Everybody loves it.
I said, your 12 friends just sent it to them.
They love it.
So they never notice.
You know, I could actually tell you how many downloads I had last year.
It was 10 million.
Linda just.
Oh, my God.
Really?
Yeah.
You probably got a million already.
You just started, but they don't notice.
They got 13 downloads.
Next week, they got 12.
Next week, 11.
And it was just their friends.
Listen, if you help just one person with what you have to say, it counts.
Not these women.
They're not helping anybody.
Did you hear my podcast?
No, I didn't.
Anyway, we'll take a quick break.
Then we'll take some calls.
800-941-Sean is the number.
800-941-Sean.
It's Mark Simone here for Sean Hannity.
We'll hear Sean and the president coming up on the show.
Don't go away.
Hey, welcome back.
Sean Hannity Show.
It's Mark Simone here for Sean.
You know that song, Linda, that's playing?
I do not.
I didn't think so.
What is it?
Hold your head up, Argent.
Of course.
1972, I think.
No. 73.
It was a good year.
It was.
Great song.
You hear that all the time.
It's been used in NFL everywhere.
Great song.

What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of 10, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
