Hey, thanks, Scott Chan.
Hour to 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 the Jewish Pennsylvania governor, Josh Shapiro, with him and his family inside.
We have an executed couple leaving a Jewish museum in D.C. We've seen Molotov cocktails, you know, thrown at an elderly Jewish group advocating to free hostages in Colorado.
And I saw a post today and 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 Havot, but they never brought up the 574 riots in the summer of 2020, the summer of love, the Chaz CHOP zones, et cetera, et cetera.
They 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 the double standard is sickening.
You know, if anybody in the conservative movement, Guy Benson actually made this point.
I thought it was dead on, had burned down a governor's mansion, murdered two foreign diplomats, firebombed kids and the elderly at a peaceful protest in the 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 rise in anti-Semitism, what have we seen on the illegal immigration front?
They're championing the rights of Brego Garcia.
But they stopped that because the polling was so bad on that.
And they stood by silently.
Now they're still fighting for Mahmoud 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 50 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 read off the states if you want.
You know, this Boulder, Colorado suspect of, you know, faces murder, assault, and other charges.
But, you know, this guy arrived in the United States from Egypt, overstayed his tourist visa, ultimately handed a two-year work permit by the Biden administration.
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, 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 firebombing attack.
She assured me that there are a ton of people who are, or there are a ton of officers on their way with the paramedics.
I told her, obviously, please hurry because there are people who are literally having their skin melt off their bodies.
And I'm sorry to be so graphic, but yeah.
So I got up the phone with them and went over and just tried to see if there was anything I could do to help.
Easily, there was one elderly woman who was not moving at all.
And there were a bunch of people who were really coming to her, people who were kind of ushering over buckets of water, some with ice.
I went and grabbed one of the buckets.
The nearest water that one directed me to was the fountain that's there in the square.
So I started scooping out water from the fountain and bringing it over to the different people who were obviously victims of what had happened, tried to start pouring it on their legs just to make them more comfortable.
One man probably, if I had to guess, is probably in his like 50s or 60s, 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.
I went over to across the path to these two elderly women, probably in their 70s, maybe 80s.
One was more concerned with the other than herself, and she's trying to get me to put water on her friend or whoever she was with.
Her whole back leg, her cap up to her, but was again skin kind of falling off of their legs.
This other woman had burned all over her hands, ankle, feet, elbows.
They look stunned, confused.
Joining us now is Paul Morrow, who formerly ran counterterrorism 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 entire world, this virulent anti-Semitism, but FBI confirming the attacker in Boulder, this Mohammed Solomon, yelled 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 or other granted a work visa despite being out of status just boggles the mind.
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 going to 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 going to be proven wrong.
But they're plotting, they're planning, they're scheming another 9-11 attack or worse.
And by the way, we miss our friend Bernie Carrick, who passed away last week.
He was a hero on 9-11, 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 really, really have.
And, you know, one of the things that I think people don't quite realize.
First of all, let me commend you for making the connection.
You're the first person I've heard it outside of me ranting and raving online 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 anarchist cookbook 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 here in New York, we had two lawyers who threw Molotovs at a police car.
The car ignited.
Their charges were just spontaneously downgraded by the Biden administration DOJ without even a request from the defense attorneys.
We had another one who was here again in New York during the summer of love who threw a Molotov into, into a van filled with police officers, NYPD 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 banjo 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 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 NYP intelligence.
And anyway, we talk about the pedestrians mowed down in Tennessee, those pleading for the freedom of hostages in Gaza.
Now we've got what happened out in Boulder, Colorado, and what happened to Josh Shapiro, and the list goes on and on.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
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.

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 Nayfak 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.
All right, we continue now with Paul Morrow.
He is the, formerly ran the counterterrorism 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 Hobbit 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 would like to see, I wish there were more people willing to stand up and say, just, look, 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 in the street demonstrations, which are now routine.
The NYPD, you don't even hear it.
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.
Donald Trump is out there trying to get a Gaza deal.
Ultimately, he will get one.
The contours 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.
And whether you like them or not, Thomas Friedman 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 would be 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 Saeed 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.
I mean, Adderdame, very different from when I was doing the work.
We were worried about ISIS, al-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 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, doubled their enrichment up to 60%.
That means less than a month until you get to weapons grade 90% enrichment.
While they don't have a delivery system that we know of at this time, 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 going to 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 going to have to live with that.
And I thought cooler heads said, we're not going to 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 happened to be in the room at the Council on Foreign Relations when John Kerry returned from Austria after he negotiated the JCPOA.
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 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 had 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 enforcement was going from.
Listen, they have a choice.
Enrichment has to stop.
They've got to hand over whatever they have enriched at that 60% or above 3%, frankly, all of it.
And the facilities must be destroyed.
And it'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-SHAWN 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.
I 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 going to 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 a speech out in California at the Democratic Party convention out there, a gesture that, oh, that's exactly like the one that Elon Musk used.
Whoopsie-daisy.
And if that's their definition of a Nazi salute, then Corey Booker just gave a Nazi salute.
Now, do I think Corey Booker gave a Nazi salute?
No, I don't.
Do I think Elon Musk and Steve Bennett did?
Absolutely not.
Do I think this is another example of how insane the Democrats are?
Yeah, I do.
You know, but it just is there.
This is their definition.
This is how they play the game.
And then we had Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, 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'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's 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 them and you tell them why bullying's wrong.
But when it's an adult like Donald Trump, you bully the shit 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 going to bully the Adam Schiff out of Trump.
Calling him a Nazi and a fascist and a racist and comparing him to Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini, that wasn't mean enough.
They got to be meaner.
If that's where their head is on all this, I am absolutely fine with it.
And if they want to go out there and they want to lie like Jasmine Crockett did this weekend, Bill Clinton did this weekend, I never saw any cognitive decline at all.
But we need to look into the 25th Amendment, our friend Jasmine Crockett said, as it relates for Trump, not for Biden.
And, you know, never mind the biggest, greatest cover-up of all time and abuse 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 Democrats' strategy is.
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.
Of course, they're going to try to impeach him.
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 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 liked me.
I do like Jasmine Crockett.
I think Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson for the new modern radical Democratic Party.
So's Tim Walz, and so's Grandpa Bernie, and so's AOC, and so's the squad member.
And if Corey Booker wants to give a Nazi salute based on their definition, 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, let's say hi to Dan in Florida.
Dan, my free state, what's going on?
Glad you called, sir.
Oh, hi.
Thank you, Sean.
It's always an honor.
And I'm not supposed to fawn over you, I know, but we love you.
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?
Did she say that to you?
No, she didn't use those words.
She really didn't.
I didn't know her.
She said, just get to the point.
Yes, get to the point, of course.
My point is.
Yeah, 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, you know, I didn't even know that you could say this on the radio, Sean, but I also, as you call it, I think it's sort of crude, but all right, it's all right.
It's your show.
You say that we fawn, pardon me, we suck up to Linda.
And we do.
We love her.
She's a voice that comes in sort of like Bill O'Reilly.
She just very simply says things to you, and they often make sense.
And of course, often you agree with her.
When you don't, I'm not saying I always do this, but I usually take her side.
It's nothing personal.
But we love her.
The wonderful caller.
I just want to say, you know.
Wonderful caller.
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 poor.
If you knew the behind the scenes and heard, you know, unfiltered Linda, I think everybody listens to the show would be a little bit shocked.
Not a little bit, a lot shocked.
Oh, yeah.
I'm not saying she's a kitty cat.
I'm sure she's.
Oh, no, she's no, 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 to get taken to lose weight.
The cat was like four times the size of a normal cat.
No, I know a lady that happened.
This is a really beautiful, beautiful cat.
She didn't want me to touch it, but I did.
And this cat is huge.
The cat has to absolutely talk to Bob Kennedy Jr., but it's not going to do any good, I think.
But she loves it.
I love cats too.
But Sean, my point is, 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 doesn't 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 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.
But whether or not they exactly get a nuclear weapon on XYZ Day, or they're 48 hours from it, or whatever, a country that has said repeatedly for years and years, just like Hitler with his mind comp, they don't pretend, Sean, how they feel.
They say, we want you dead.
We're going to destroy you.
And there's a very, very great man.
Going to mention him because I saw a 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 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 they can't get some from another place?
I don't think when 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 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, 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 terror campaign by not enforcing the sanctions that were working so well under President Trump's first term.
We've got to take it seriously.
The clock's about to strike midnight, as far as I'm concerned.
This is 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 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 going to roll, but I do appreciate you being with us.
By the way, you live in Florida.
What part of Florida do you live in?
Abin Shura.
It's a fancy place, but I'm not fancy at all.
It's what used to be North Miami Beach.
Oh, right.
So you got it.
Well, don't forget, we're going to be Sunday, June 29th in Fort Lauderdale.
We have our Punchline and Patriots tour.
It's June 29th.
It's at 7 o'clock.
It's at the Broward Center for Performing Arts.
You know where that is?
That is, yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah.
Well, just go to Hannity.com, get yourself some tickets, and come see us.
All right.
We'd love to.
It's going to be a, we were putting together a great show, and it's going to be a lot of laughs, I promise.
Yeah, well, again, there's no way I could have made it personally.
I know it sounds without you and Fox.
I really don't think so.
I know you've said it a million times.
I know I have to get off, but there's just, I couldn't have made it without Fox.
I still can't.
I'm a Fox.
Come see us because I promise you, we're going to have rip-roaring fun.
We're going to cut it up big time.
It's going to be, there's a lot to laugh at, a lot to talk about.
Punchlines and Patriots are going to do a nice mix, a nice blend of a lot of fun things.
I think you'll like it.
The day before, we will be in Clearwater.
So if you're in, you know, Tampa, Clearwater, if you're in the Panhandle, Orlando area, come from wherever.
June 28th at 7 p.m., Ruth Eckert Hall, Clearwater, and June 29th, the next night, both at 7 o'clock, the Broward Center for Performing Arts tickets on Hannity.com.
And we look forward to seeing everybody.
Please get your tickets now while you still can.
Okay?
Appreciate the call, my friend.
God bless you.
Quick break, right back to our phones.
800-941-Sean is unnumbered on this Monday as we continue.
Final hour roundup is next.
You do not want to miss it.
And stay tuned for the final hour free-for-all on the Sean Hannity Show.
Back to our busy phones, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
Bob, Texas, God bless Texas.
What's up, Bob?
How are you?
Good afternoon.
Thanks for taking the call.
I've got some comments on Joe Biden's auto-pen pardons.
And to make my comments, let me set up a little scene here for you to illustrate it.
The illustration is a parallel of the auto-pen issue as I see it.
And to set this up, look at me.
Assume I'm old.
I'm incoherent.
I can't communicate.
I'm expected to die soon.
Sounds like someone else, doesn't it?
Okay.
It does.
My will leaves half of my estate to my wife, the other half to children and grandchildren.
That's great.
But my wife has a problem with this.
When I die, she wants it all.
She don't want to leave anything to the kids.
So this is what she does.
And I don't know what you can do if this is this.
She does it anyway.
She goes and hires a crooked attorney, 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 auto pen signature.
She has it notarized.
Well, that will lying on the desk in front of you.
It certainly looks legal and correct.
Okay.
Well, if, but for a will, you need witnesses and you need notaries.
I know because I've done my will and my trust 15 times, and I'm due to do it again.
And by the way, I'm about to take Linda completely out of the will.
Good.
This sounds like a rash decision.
I'm not sure if you've thought this through.
It's not you in the will.
It's Liam in the will.
What have we ever done?
Okay.
Well, I mean, 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'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 there were thousands that Joe Biden signed more in his last month or two months in office, more auto pens than the entire presidency prior to that.
I mean, it's almost like 75% in just 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.
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, say, well, he seemed okay to me.
I looked at him and he seemed like he was very sharp.
I didn't see any mental decline at all.
Well, you know, Josh Hawley 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 thought they could win reelection and then just, you know, show proof of life occasionally in the second term.
I mean, you've got to ask.
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 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.
