Hour two, Sean Hannity Show.
Toll free, it is 800-941-SEAN.
If you want to be a part of the program, So in a period of less than two months, we have had individuals openly claiming to be motivated by, quote, free Palestine and the Free Palestine movement.
Let's see, trying to burn down the home of uh the Jewish Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro, with him and his family inside.
We have an execute executed couple leaving a Jewish museum in D.C. We've seen Molotov cocktails, you know, thrown at a elderly Jewish group advocating to free hostages in Colorado.
Um, and I saw a post today that it said the anti-fada holy war, if you will, is already here.
And the people who have tried to downplay this threat should be ashamed.
And this is where you get into the never-ending and this is the party that how often did they bring up January 6th or Charlottesville?
But they lived on this.
It was like manna from Hammett, but they didn't never brought up the 574 riots in the summer of 2020, the summer of love, the Chaz Chop uh zones, etc.
etc.
They they've then voted for a vice president at the time that said, oh, they're not going to stop writing, they shouldn't stop writing, and we're not going to stop supporting the rioters.
And let's see, dozens of dead Americans, thousands of injured cops, pelted with bricks, rocks, bottles, Molotov cocktails, billions in property damage.
They're not going to stop, they shouldn't stop.
And and the double standard is sickening.
You know, if if anybody in the conservative movement, Guy Benson actually made this point, I thought it was was dead on, had burned down a governor's mansion, murder murdered two foreign diplomats, firebomb kids and the elderly at a peaceful protest in a span of a few weeks.
What would the coverage look like?
What sort of national conversation would we be having?
I thought he was dead on accurate.
I mean, but this this rise in anti-Semitism, what have we seen on the illegal immigration front?
They're championing the rights of uh of Brago Garcia.
You know, but they stopped that because the polling was so bad on that.
And and they stood by silently.
Now they're still fighting for Mahmood Khalil, who'd been organizing these anti-Israeli protests.
Remember at Columbia, they were asking students, are you a Zionist?
And allowing students to take over the entire school.
Then we find out these Ivy League colleges are getting billions of taxpayer dollars over the years.
This is a form of madness.
And I on this program have been warning you there are known terrorists In this country, but we don't know where they are.
I know, I've been a broken record about it because it is a clear and present danger to every single one of us.
It was a report that came out, new report published by the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security, as I said in the last hour that foreign jihadist networks and homegrown violent extremists represent a persistent terror threat in America, and they identified more than fifty cases in 29 U.S. states between April of 21 and September of 2024,
including dozens of attempts to provide material support to Islamic designated foreign terrorist organizations, ISIS, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, with individuals receiving military type training from ISIS and Hezbollah and committing fraud, and they have been in our country.
I can lead off read off the states if you want.
You know, this boulder boulder, Colorado suspect uh of you know, faces murder assault and other charges, but you know, this this guy arrived in the United States from Egypt, overstayed his tourist visa, ultimately handed a two-year work permit by the Biden administration.
That he overstayed that.
DHS sources said the Trump administration turned up the heat on Biden overnight, demanding answers.
Why was this guy allowed to remain in the country despite twice breaching conditions of his visa?
I mean, wh why did they allow him in in the first place?
What vetting did they do?
The answer is they probably did next to none, if any at all.
By the way, here is one of the witnesses at what happened in Boulder, Colorado, describing people having skin melted during this this firebombing attack.
Uh she she assured me that there are a ton of people um who are there are kind of officers on their way with the paramedics.
Uh I told her uh obviously please hurry because there are people who are literally uh having their skin melt off their bodies, and I'm sorry to beat the graphic, but um yeah, so I uh I got up in zone with them uh and and went over and and just try to see if there's anything I could do to help each other was one elderly woman who was not moving at all, and there were a bunch of people who were really coming to her, uh people who were kind of buttering over buckets of water, some with ice.
Uh, I went and grabbed one of the buckets, the the nearest water that someone directed me to is the fountain that they're in the square, so I started scooping out water uh from the fountain and bringing it over to the different people who were obviously victims of what had happened, um, tried to start pouring it on their legs just to make them more comfortable.
Uh one one man probably if I had a guess is probably in his like fifties or sixties, uh, just kind of in shock and figuring out what he could do to make himself more comfortable.
I mean, his leg from ankle or foot all the way up to his buttock was melted, his skin was melted basically off or shaved off his leg.
Um I went over to across the path to um these two elderly women, um, probably in their 70s, maybe eighties.
Uh one was more concerned with uh with the other than herself and trying to get me to put water on on her friend or um or whoever she was with.
Her whole back leg uh from her cap up to her by um was again skin kind of falling off uh off of their legs.
Uh this other woman had burned all over her hand, ankle, feet, uh, elbows, they look stunned, confused.
Joining us now is Paul Morrow, who formerly ran counter-terrorism operations for NYPD intelligence, and he's here to break down what's happening across the country.
Frankly, it's on college campuses in the halls of Congress and around the the entire world, this virulent anti-Semitism, but FBI confirming the attacker in Boulder, this Ma Mohammed Solomon, the old free Palestine, then used the flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to attack these elderly demonstrators.
He shouldn't have been in the country, Paul.
He shouldn't have been here.
He really shouldn't have been.
And just to add to that, the fact that he was somehow rather granted a work visa despite being out of status just boggles the mind.
I did there may be no other nation on earth that could manage to do that, but we managed under the Biden administration.
You know, but look, I've been warning people that it's gonna get worse.
I've been warning this audience that it's not if it's when.
I pray to God I'm wrong.
I say it every time.
I don't think I'm gonna be proven wrong.
But they're plotting, they're planning, they're scheming another nine eleven attack or worse.
And and by the way, we miss our friend Bernie Bernie Carrick, who passed away last week.
He was a hero on nine eleven, like so many other people, and so was Rudy Giuliani.
And you know, the fact that the left would want to attack him.
He did so much put his own life in jeopardy that day.
But you know, the law enforcement basics have been ignored here, Paul.
Yeah, they you know, they really, really have.
And you know, one of the things that I think people don't quite realize, is first of all, let me commend you for making the connection.
You're the first person I've heard it outside of me ranting raving online, uh, to the use of Molotov cocktails by Antifa and other elements of the radical left during the quote unquote summer of love in 2020.
And what this character did, this is a default uh anarchist bookbook measure that the left loves to default to, and it has significance.
It's a signifier.
It's a low-rent incendiary.
I understand that, but it also has a history, and there's a reason that they tend to use that.
And in 2020, we had three people here just in New York.
Never mind what they did in Seattle, Portland, and other cities, up in Minneapolis, St. Paul, throwing them at the cops, burning down police stations, etc.
But you're in New York.
We had two lawyers who threw Molotovs at a police car.
Car ignited.
Their charges were just spontaneously downgraded by the Biden administration DOJ without even a request from the defense attorneys.
Uh, we had another one who was here again in New York during the summer of love, who threw a Molotov into a van filled with police officers, MYPD police officers, four of them who luckily scrambled out, the van ignited, and she got six years, so at least there was that.
But it goes to the fact that these are trident true tropes of the left.
They know what to do.
This stuff gets passed around.
It's institutionally there.
And as the world gets smaller, and the threat vector comes home from instead of Al Qaeda ISIS when I was doing this kind of work for 15 years.
It's now on our campuses.
It's embedded in the culture.
It's been normalized and embedded in that now is anti-Semitism being normalized.
You never would have heard 20 years ago, 15 years ago, commencement speakers doing what they do now.
Never in mind not being ashamed to do it, but doing it as if somehow or other it's a badge of honor.
This is new.
It's shocking to the conscience, it shocks our ears.
But I think it goes to what you're saying, Sean.
We're in very dangerous territory and doesn't look doesn't look good.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back and we will continue more with our friend Paul Morrow.
He is the former NYPD counterterrorism operations for the uh NYP intelligence.
And anyway, we talk about the pedestrians mowed down in Tennessee, those you know, pleading for the freedom of hostages in Gaza.
Now we've got what happened out in Boulder, Colorado, and and what happened to Josh Shapiro, and the list goes on and on.
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 facts.
You're our kind of people.

So down a 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 theories.
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.
Locker up.
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, we continue now with Paul Morrow.
He He is the formerly ran the counter-terrorism operation for the MYPD.
As we talk about now the rise of violence and virulent anti-Semitism around the country and around the world.
You've been seeing what's happening at Harvard and Columbia, and you saw the commencement speech at MIT this weekend.
I mean, there were always some people that walked out, but not enough as far as I'm concerned.
Absolutely not.
And the only ones who did are a sliver of those who either have a conscience or identify with the Jewish state, because you know, you have to say, I I I would like to see, I wish there were more people willing to stand up and say, just uh look, I'm a let's say it's somebody who stands up and says, you know what, I'm a Democrat, I vote Democrat, but I can't countenance this.
But yet they are cowed, and they are cowed by the fact that right now on the left in the Democratic Party, the energy, the money all resides with the far left progressives.
And if you're looking at the landscape right now, the future seems to belong to them.
And we see it here in the city, we see it at the commencements, but we also see it on in the street demonstrations, which are now routine.
The MYPD, you don't even hear it, doesn't even make the newspapers anymore.
But let me put something on the radar screen that maybe some of our listeners are not aware of.
Well, Donald Trump is out there trying to get a Gaza deal.
Ultimately, he will get one.
The controversial are not fully clear yet, but they're starting to emerge.
Remember something.
Reporters have not been allowed to report from Gaza all of this time.
Whether you like them or not, Thomas Freeman in the Times reported something recently, which was that when that opens up, and he must be hearing things, I'm sure he's well connected there.
The reporting that's going to come out out of Gaza, those articles are already written, Sean.
You and I both know how they're going to couch that.
And if you think that they're all over Israel now, just wait until the reporters get in there, can see what's left of Gaza and how they're going to report that.
And we are in for a storm.
It probably very good, very good chance it could coincide with the fall semester on the campuses.
If we think things are popping off now at Harvard at Columbia, Columbia really seems to be a ground zero for this stuff.
You know, they had Edward Said in the Middle Eastern Studies department up there.
He was the sort of foundational person for a lot of this stuff.
You're going to see going forward.
It really is going to get worse.
Coming out of the came very different from what I was doing the work.
We were worried about ISIS or Qaeda from overseas.
This stuff has come home right now.
We have an entire generation coming up who think that they are on the side of the righteous.
Well, we have one other bigger problem, and we've been discussing it in in great detail, and that is Iran, the number one state sponsor of terror.
And the clock's about to strike midnight.
Paul, I was with the president in the Middle East.
He said on five separate occasions, they have two choices.
Now, my understanding according to the IAEA report is that they have enriched uh doubled their enrichment up to sixty percent.
That means less than a month until you get to weapons grade 90% enrichment.
Uh, while they don't have a delivery system that we know of at this time, it's it's it's now it's kind of like now or never.
The world is either going to deal with Iran now while they have a chance, or they're gonna have radical Islamic terrorists that have nuclear weapons, and that can't happen on Donald Trump's watch, even though it would be Joe Biden's fault for enriching them.
I actually go back to Obama on this.
Obama was caught in an unguarded moment, essentially saying We're going to have a nuclear Iran, and we're just gonna have to live with that.
And I thought cooler heads said we're not gonna live with that because we won't be able to live with that.
But there was not enough of a resounding chorus, and everybody just goes back to doing what they're doing.
I happen to be in the room at the Council on Foreign Relations when John Kerry returned from Austria after he negotiated the JCTOA.
And a lot of people don't realize that he returned from that negotiation.
There was a sidebar in Austria where they really cut the deal.
And you know, he literally got mad.
That's and that was surprising.
It was a room that was not entirely with him.
He was pressed at one point he got very, very petulant.
And he said, Look, we're not naive.
I can remember it to this day.
And they are naive because he all this nonsense about Snapback and everything else when they won't even let us do the inspections.
So I don't know where he felt the uh enforcement was going from.
Listen, they they have a choice.
Enrichment has to stop.
They've got a handover, whatever they have enriched at that 60% or or above three percent, frankly, all of it.
Uh and the facilities must be destroyed, and there's got to be anywhere, any place, anytime.
American inspectors either take that deal or you will face the consequences.
That's it, as far as I'm concerned.
Paul Morrow, thank you.
Appreciate you.
800-941-SEAN if you want to be a part of the program.
Information download.
Sean Hannity and the breaking news you might have missed today.
It's Sean's insider information.
Hannity is on right now.
All right, 25 now till the top of the hour.
800, 941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Well, it's pretty interesting.
I mean, if you're gonna follow the left's definition of a Nazi salute, then you can't overlook the over the weekend, Corey Booker raising his hand the way he did during his speech out in California at the Democratic Party convention out there, a gesture that oh, that's exactly like the one that uh Elon Musk used.
Whoopsie Daisy.
And if that's their definition of a Nazi salute, then Cory Booker just gave a Nazi salute.
Now, do I think Cory Booker gave a Nazi salute?
Uh no, I don't.
Do I think Elon Musk and Steve Bannon did?
Absolutely not.
So I think this is absolute another example of how insane the Democrats are.
Yeah, I do.
You know, but it it it just is their this is their definition.
This is how they play the game.
And then we had Minnesota governor Tim Walls, former vice presidential candidate, encouraging a crowd of democratic activists to bully the Adam Schiff out of Donald Trump.
Here's what he said.
I I'm getting called out on this because I called Donald Trump a wannabe dictator.
It's because he is.
It's because he is.
Oh the governor's being mean and the governor speaking out on that.
Well, maybe it's time for us to be a little meaner.
Maybe it's time for us to be a little more fierce.
Because we have to ferociously push back on this.
And again, I'll speak to my teacher colleagues in here.
The thing that bothers a teacher more than anything is to watch a bully.
To watch this bully and to stop it.
And when it's a child, you talk to him and you tell them why bullying's wrong.
But when it's adult like Donald Trump, you bully the s out of him back.
You push back.
You make sure they know it's not there.
This is the same guy that supports gender affirming care for minors without parental consent.
This is the same guy that wanted taxpayer-funded college tuition for illegal immigrants who partnered with a presidential candidate that wanted taxpayer-funded sex change operations for illegals and for convicts.
But we're gonna bully the Adam Schiff out of Trump.
Uh calling him a Nazi and a fascist and a racist and comparing him to Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini again.
That didn't that wasn't mean enough.
They gotta be meaner.
If that's where their head is on all this, I'm I am absolutely fine with it.
And if they want to go out there and and they want to lie like Jasmine Crockett did this weekend.
Bill Clinton did this weekend.
I never saw any cognitive decline at all.
Oh, well, but we need to look into the twenty-fifth amendment, our friend Jasmine Crockett said, as relates for Trump.
Not for Biden.
And you know, no, never mind the biggest greatest cover-up of all time and abuse of of power by people that were unelected.
And she is telegraphing where the Democrats are going.
I think we need to pay very close attention to what the Democrat strategy is.
I keep she said I can't wait until Democrats are in the majority, so we can subpoena Elon Musk and put him under oath.
And Democrats would try to impeach Trump if they win back the House.
Get ready and get mobilized and start preparing now because these midterms are going to be a fight for the future of this country because that's what we'll live through that for two consecutive years if the Democrats ever get control of the House or the House and the Senate.
You know, Democrats would try to impeach him.
Oh, for what?
I've had Republicans tell me how much they like me.
I do like Jasmine Crockett.
I think Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson for the new modern radical Democratic Party.
So is Tim Walls.
And so's Grandpa Bernie, and so's AOC, and so's the squad member.
And if Cory Booker wants to give a Nazi salute based on their definition, that that's up to him.
He's fully aware how people would interpret that.
But he did it anyway.
Anyway, 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Uh let's say hi to Dan in Florida.
Dan, my free state, what's going on?
Glad you called, sir.
Oh, hi.
Uh thank you, Sean.
It's as always an honor.
And I'm not supposed to fawn over you, I know, but uh we love you or your audience.
Now let me ask you a question.
Does Katie tell you that whatever you do, just get right to your point.
Don't fawn over Sean.
Does she say that to you?
No, she didn't use those words.
She really didn't.
She I didn't know her.
She said she said, just get to the point.
Yes, get to the point, of course.
My point is Yeah, but but when it comes to fawning over her and Linda, it's like, you know, free reign.
Have at it.
But go ahead.
Well, we all uh, you know, I I I I didn't even know that you could say this on the radio, Sean.
But I also uh as you call it, I think it's sort of crude, but all right, it's all right.
It's your show.
Uh you say that we fawn pardon me, we suck up to Linda, and and we do.
We love her.
She she's a voice that comes in sort of like Bill O'Reilly.
She just very simply says things to you, and uh they often make sense.
And of course, often you agree with her.
When you don't, uh I'm not saying I always do this, but I usually take her side.
It's nothing personal.
Uh but uh we love a wonderful caller.
I just want to say, you know, wonderful caller.
Uh the wonderful caller that's fawning all over you.
Okay, what's on your mind today?
Mother Earth is really, and I'm glad she does, expressing herself today.
I'm in the car, and it's uh poor if if you knew the behind the scenes and heard, you know, unfiltered, Linda.
Uh I think the con I think everybody listens to the show would be a little bit shocked.
Not a little bit, a lot shocked.
Oh, yeah.
I'm I'm not saying she's a kitty cat.
I'm sure she's uh Oh no, she's no that that kitty cat would not well she did have a cat once, but she let the cat get too heavy.
She overfed it and nearly killed the cat, and the cat had to go away.
I think I'd take to lose weight.
The cat was like four times the size of a normal cat.
No, I know a lady have uh that this is a really beautiful, beautiful cat.
She didn't want me to touch it, but I did.
And and this cat is huge.
The cat has has to absolutely talk to uh Bob Kennedy Jr., but it's not gonna do any good, I think.
But she loves fake.
I love cats too.
But Sean, my my point is um it's not funny, unfortunately, it's very tragic.
It's about the whole thing that I've heard from you and others for many years.
And this you can if anybody does know this statement, they've been living under a rock.
Iran is the number one sponsor of terrorism in the world, both for the United States, of course, for Israel, they want us both dead.
So hold the whole thing that Donald Trump Talks about and other people who are way obviously have the intel.
You may know certain things, of course, most of your audience I don't.
Uh, but whether or not they exactly get a nuclear weapon on XYZ day, or they're 48 hours from it, or they're whatever.
A country that is said repeatedly for years and years, it's just like Hitler with his mind comp they don't pretend Sean how they feel.
They say, We want you dead, we're gonna destroy you.
Um, and there's a very, very great man gonna mention him because I saw his show, who feels extremely strongly about this.
You can't make a bargain with the devil.
I don't know what part of that's my the Bible that's in, but I believe in that strongly.
And that's what Donald Trump's trying to do.
It's not just that.
Who says they don't have bombs, Sean?
Who says that that they can't get some from another place?
I don't think when they their enrichment thing that we keep hearing about 60%, 90%.
I'm not a nuclear physicist.
I'm not any kind, actually, but I know something.
You don't need all you need to know is they can have weapons grade uranium in weeks.
And they that means they can build the bomb.
And they need the delivery system.
This can't happen.
Listen, and then there are some conservatives.
Oh, my mind your own business.
I'd love to mind my own business, but when people say and chant death to America, death to Israel, and they have been fomenting terror because Joe Biden helped them get rich and funded their their terror campaign by not enforcing the sanctions that were working so well under President Trump's first term.
Uh we've got to take it seriously.
It's the the clock's about to strike strike midnight, as far as I'm concerned.
Is it not an operation that would be without risk?
It doesn't mean that this is simple.
However, you know, a nuclear armed Iran, in my view, my view, risks the potential of a modern day Holocaust.
And there's two things, two big targets that we have the nuclear sites and the refineries.
And if you take out both of them, I would argue I don't see that the mullahs will survive.
Because the people will will be famished.
The people will rise up.
We saw when the sanctions were working in Trump's first term that the people were rising up against them.
Yes, they do.
Anyway, my friend, I'm gonna roll, but I do appreciate you uh being with us.
By the way, you live in Florida.
What part of Florida you live in?
Uh Aventure.
It's a fancy place, but I'm not fancy at all.

Thanks for taking the call.
I've got some comments on Joe Biden's autopen pardons.
And uh to make my comments, let me set up a little little scene here for you to illustrate it.
Uh the illustration is a parallel of the autopenish issue as I see it.
And to set this up, look at me.
Assume I'm old, I'm incoherent, I can't communicate, get to die.
Soon.
Sounds like someone else, doesn't it?
Okay.
It does.
Will my well will leave half of my estate to my wife.
That was a half to children and grandchildren.
That's great.
But my wife has a problem with this.
When I die, she wants it all.
She didn't want to leave anything to the kids.
So this is what she does.
And I don't know if she can do if this is this, she does it anyway.
She goes and hires a crooked attorney.
She gets a new will drawn up with all the provisions she wants.
She signs that will with her true signature.
She signs that will with my autopen signature.
She has it notarized.
Well, that will's lying on the desk in front of you.
It certainly looks legal and correct.
Okay.
So if if but for a will, you need witnesses and you need notaries.
I know because I've I've I've done my will and my trust 15 times.
And I'm due to do it again.
And I'm by the way, I'm about to take Linda completely out of the will.
Good.
Sounds like a rash decision.
I'm not sure if you've thought this through.
What have we ever done?
Okay.
Well, I mean, you you know what I do.
If you got this will notarized, would it hold up in court if we're contested?
If it wouldn't hold up, then why did Joe Biden's pardons hold up?
Same principle.
I think you I think you're making a great point.
I mean, when you think of what James Comer told us late last week, and we talked a lot about it on Friday night, and he was very clear that that there were over there were thousands that Joe Biden signed more in his last month or two months in office, more autopens than the entire presidency prior to that.
By I mean, it's almost like 75% in just a sh a two-month period of time.
Do I believe he was aware of every single thing that was in there?
I do not.
And I think there's a great cover up here.
And I think we owe it to the nation to get to the bottom of it.
Uh, I think there are tough questions that need to be asked of Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and Jim Biden and all the people that were around him.
What did they know?
When did they know it?
And who was in charge?
And give us some evidence.
You know, Bill Clinton and Jasmine Crockett, not very reassuring, saying, Well, he seemed okay to me.
I I I looked at him and he seemed like he was very sharp.
You know, I didn't see any mental decline at all.
Well, you know, uh, Josh Holly was saying I talked to Secret Service agents that said the guy got lost in his own closet.
His own staff was saying things in that book, you know, by fake Jake Tapper that literally Joe Biden, you know, they they thought they could win re-election and then just you know show proof of life occasionally in the second term.
I mean, you you've got to ask.
And I and I'll raise the question.
I don't care whether people like it or not.
I call it dementia gate, but I want to know who knew what when and who was in charge.
And I I do think there's a degree of elder abuse that went on here.
Because it was so bad.
And it was so obvious.
And if you say you don't know, I don't believe you.
