Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup, information overload hour.
Here's our toll-free telephone number.
If you want to be a part of the program, 800-941-Sean, we'll get to more of your calls straight ahead and more of the other news of the day coming up.
Scott Brown, remember Scott Brown was supposed to be the defining vote against Obamacare and the shenanigans the Democrats pulled.
Well, Scott Brown is from New Hampshire, and he made an announcement today that he's running for the Senate as a Republican from the live-free or die state of New Hampshire.
Here's what he said.
Hello, I'm Scott Brown.
My life began here in New Hampshire at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.
Since then, I've had a lot of different titles, a soldier, senator, coach, husband, dad, and the Republican that won the so-called Kennedy seat.
And President Trump's ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa.
My life has been the American story, but I worry about what America is going to look like in the future for my four grandchildren and all of yours.
And like a lot of you, I'm worried about where this country is headed.
New Hampshire is an amazing place to live, work, and raise a family.
We've been blessed by two great governors, Chris Sununu and Kelly Ayat.
But in Washington, we haven't been represented by the right people.
For four years, Chris Pappas has stood with Joe Biden as he opened the border, drove up the cost of everything, and made life just simply unaffordable.
The extreme left wanted the police to fund it, Hamas to win, and men and women's sports.
President Trump is fighting every day to right the ship.
He sealed the border.
He stood up to China, and he's restored our standing in the world.
If we send Chris Pappas to the Senate, we'll get more of the same out-of-touch policies he's pushed for during the terms that he's been there, dragging us right back to the Biden years.
It's time to move on.
All right, joining us now is Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown is back with us.
I don't know, do I say congratulations or condolences?
I'm not sure how to approach that to anybody that runs for office.
I assume congratulations because you want to do it.
Well, first of all, we live in the greatest country in the world, and it's an honor to try to serve, and it's been an honor to serve as a U.S. Senator and as President Trump's ambassador to New Zealand, Cook New A.S. Moore, and our interest in Antarctica, you know, pushing back against China every day for almost the four years I served.
So yeah, it's an honor, but obviously it's a battle.
You know, the Democrats will do their usual stuff and, you know, the party of no, no, no, and complain, complain.
And so yeah, it's exciting, and I really appreciate the opportunity to come on and tell people what's going on.
Let's start, obviously, with this conflict.
If you would have told me in 12 days that Israel would decimate the Iranians, knock out their air defense system, take out their top generals, take out their top nuclear scientists, bomb the living daylights out of two of their nuclear facilities, and take out other critical munitions and launchers and everything in between and be successful.
And then that would be followed up by President Donald Trump wiping out their three nuclear facilities and wiping out the nuclear ambitions.
And then, you know, within 12 days, it ends and we're now at a ceasefire.
I know it's a bit precarious.
Nobody knows if it holds, but that's where we are at this moment.
I wouldn't have believed it.
Yeah, no.
Listen, they're going to write in the military textbooks, this is going to be studied for generations.
And in terms of what he did, listen, presidents have tried and wanted to do this since our embassy bombing and the taking of hostages.
Iran is a bad actor.
They were a bully in the region.
We all know that.
And as a result, a lot of the countries within that sphere had to build up the military and spent more time worrying about Iran.
And then let's talk about Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houdis.
You know, yeah, Israel did a great job.
The president was bold.
He was courageous.
And the fact that the Democrats want to now impeach him, and the Democrats have not said hardly one thing about the men and women who have carried off this brilliant mission, it's disappointing, but it's not surprising because, Sean, just remember, Barack Obama went after bin Laden.
I congratulate him.
I said, sir, you got big balls.
Congratulations.
And, you know, everyone rallied around him.
And he also dropped 26,000 bombs on different countries.
But he used that same authority along with Kennedy, Bay of Pigs, and a whole host of other people.
Now the president does it, our president, and they want to impeach him.
It's upside down and it's wrong.
And that's another reason why I'm running to be there to obviously protect the president and make sure that he can continue to do his job.
There's one state that I really can't figure out politically, and it's your state.
And it elects Republicans, it elects Democrats, and you never seem to know which way it's going to go.
I mean, we've had great people like Governor Sununu, for example, Kelly Ayotte, for example, and then they elect Democrats as well.
And I'm just can you explain it to me?
I guess it's probably the most independent state of all the states in the Union.
Am I wrong on that?
No, I think you're right.
Listen, live free or die.
And we've had Chris Sununu as governor and Kelly Ayot as senator and governor, and she's doing a great job.
And, you know, we're blessed in that regard.
But the federal delegation over the last decade has been basically trouncing on our New Hampshire advantage, putting in more regulations, more taxes, the open border, the sanctuary city, the boys and men and women's and girls' sports, fighting to protect the illegals, giving them rights, giving away all of our money on different types of social programs.
So they're upside down in that regard.
And as a result of that, they come back from Washington and come and try to be a moderate.
Oh, I'm the most bipartisan this.
I did this.
Yeah, you can cherry pick a couple of votes.
But in this instance, Chris Pappas is like AOC, and who is like your new potential mayor in New York City.
You know, they're just the new state of the modern Democratic Party.
You know, they're socialists on the verge of communist, and, you know, they are not that JFK's party anymore.
That's for darn sure.
Yeah, they really aren't.
I mean, it was pretty miraculous that you were able to win in New Hampshire.
I'm sorry, in Massachusetts when you did, but you're really a guy from New Hampshire.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Born at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard first couple of days after my birth.
I went on Islington Street, and then when my parents got divorced, I went to my grandparents, and obviously they helped my mom in Wakefield.
But yeah, I have great memories in Wakefield.
I was honored to serve there.
And the difference, obviously, between the people I'm running against, listen, I've been a soldier, a father, grandfather, senator, ambassador.
And, you know, I don't need another title.
You know, Chris Pappas is looking for one.
But, you know, I want a stronger America.
And as a result of what we're seeing now, obviously, in the Middle East, what we're seeing with China, you need somebody.
We need somebody.
And remember, when you're a U.S. Senator, you're not just representing your state.
You're trying to make sure that the United States as a whole is safe and secure.
You're making sure that we can have the tools and resources with our military to defend ourselves.
And that's what's at stake here.
Let me ask you, you know, you were talking about the Democratic Party.
This is what this party has now evolved into.
They had an impeachment vote yesterday, for example, in the House.
I have not seen Senator Schumer or many, if any, Democratic senators, with the exception of John Fetterman, that has applauded the president's successful mission knocking out Iranian nuclear facilities.
And it's not surprising.
I mean, if Donald Trump cured cancer, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't care.
But this party has evolved into a party of radicalism.
It's not the old Democratic party of Bill Clinton.
It's not the party of the, like, for example, we have this one big, beautiful bill that if you don't pass it and Republicans don't pass it, it'll be the largest tax increase in history or the largest tax cut in history.
I don't think you're going to get one Democrat to vote for that bill.
It also eliminates tax on tips and overtime.
It also expands energy production to make America, help make America the most energy-dominant country on earth.
It also gives money to secure our borders.
It also gives money to create the next generation of weaponry.
And as we learned on Saturday night, we need that to stay ahead of our adversaries on that front.
The party of, I argue, of coastal elites, you know, woke elites that champion the rights of men to play women's sports, that put the rights of illegals over the safety of our own citizens, even illegals that are gang members.
I mean, look at the rhetoric out of Los Angeles.
They've only been arresting murderers, child molesters, gangsters, drug dealers, and the most violent criminals.
And you would think, you know, it's the most horrible thing on earth.
The party of Obrego Garcia, you know, this is the party, you know, that wouldn't stand for moms at a joint session speech of President Trump that lost their children because of their open borders policies.
Now, that is the Democratic Party today.
And, you know, you talked about New Hampshire kind of they stay Republican local, but they've they've sent pretty radical, consistent, you know, Schumer, AOC Democrats to the U.S. Senate.
It doesn't make sense to me.
Yeah, Sean, first of all, you're eloquently describing exactly what's happening in our country.
They're not boy or Girl Scout leaders.
You know, they're radical gangbangers, quite frankly, a lot of the people that they're trying to get out of here.
Very dangerous, and you've noted that for months and months and months.
Yeah, listen, bottom line is what you have to do is you're going to go earn the people's votes.
You've got to point out the differences between our records, and everything you talked about is what Chris Pappas cares about.
And if folks want to get involved, they can go to scottbrown.com and let's send a message.
We announced today we're ready to rock and roll.
And the things that the president is working for, and you pointed out many times as well, they can't find one thing, not one thing, not one dollar, one program where we can save some type of money, whether it's $100 or $1,000.
It's the party of no.
Just leave it alone.
Well, if you leave it alone, it's going to fall apart, whether it's any of our social programs, any of the programs that people actually need.
If we don't kick the illegals that are getting Medicaid benefits, for example, out, they're going to drain the system.
And if we don't do some other things and give people a small work requirement of 20 hours, Sean, you do that in a day.
You're like 20 hours a day.
You tell me you can't work 20 hours a week and volunteer and be an activist, go mow the lawn, volunteer at a baseball, youth baseball or basketball.
Come on.
Well, they're demagoguing it and they're lying like they always do with their little talking point that Republicans are going to cut Medicare, Medicare, and Social Security.
None of which is true.
They're just eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse.
And for able-bodied people, they are insisting that, hey, you do something, even if it's volunteer, as you say.
Right.
And Bill Clinton did it.
And what was the problem?
He dropped the roles by 60%.
He required had a worker climb.
So things gone so upside down, and we're not motivating.
And this doesn't affect people with disabilities, pregnant moms and others who have absolute disabilities, and they absolutely need that.
And I fight harder than anyone to make sure they get it.
But for people who are just saying, you know what, I don't want to work.
You know, it's hot out today.
You know, and oh my gosh, Sean, they've got to fill out a few papers.
It's very complicated, apparently.
Give me a break, okay?
Do your jobs, get off the couch, go help out, volunteer.
And who knows, you may find something you really enjoy.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back.
More with, well, just announced, Republican Senate candidate from New Hampshire, Scott Brown, is with us.
We'll have more with Scott.
Then your calls on the other side, 800-941-Sean, if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
The Sean Hannity Show, a thermonuclear MMA assault on fake news.
Hannity's on right now.
He is running as a Republican from the live-free or die state of New Hampshire.
I really am hoping.
I think this is a seat that can be won.
And I do have a lot of faith that I love the people of New Hampshire.
They're wonderful people.
I love their rugged individualism.
I love your slogan, obviously.
I borrowed it from my book, Live Free or Die.
And do you expect or anticipate that you're going to have a primary in this race?
Yeah, I don't know, Sean.
Last time I ran, I barely lost Shaheen 14,000 votes.
I had like 15 people and I beat him by over 50%.
You know, primaries are good things.
The Democrats, as we know by Biden and Harris, don't like them because they have to answer questions.
And, you know, the Democrats here are the same way.
Oh, let's clear the field.
God forbid, he answers a tough question.
I love primaries.
Let's go.
Bring it.
Answer questions, debate.
I'll debate Chris Pappas right now on your show.
Let's go.
I'm ready.
Put me in, coach.
Well, the invitation's open.
If he wants to do a debate, I'll put aside an hour and a half for both of you to debate on this show.
So the challenge is out.
We'll have my team reach out and see if he wants to come on.
Great.
But, you know, one thing I want everybody to realize is if we don't control the House and Senate, this 2026 election is very critical.
They just tried to impeach Donald Trump yesterday.
If Democrats get control of the House and Senate, all of his good work will come to a screeching halt.
He won't be able to accomplish anything at that point.
And he will be impeached over and over and over again by a party that has been so radicalized.
And it would be such a shame for the country.
And that's why I'm warning everybody now.
It matters in 2026.
Get out and vote.
These midterms are critical for the future of our country.
Anyway, Scott Brown, we do appreciate you, and we will be following your race very, very closely.
And thanks for taking your time.
And we wish you the best on the campaign trail.
Thank you, Sean.
God bless you, and God bless your listeners and America, obviously.
Thank you.
God bless everybody.
God bless this country.
God bless the world.
We need to get things straightened out.
We're in the process of getting things straightened out.
We just got to really, really keep our foot on the gas.
I want to deputize all of you now for 2026.
Hannity, 2025, why are you talking about the 2026 midterms?
Because they're going to matter.
Everything's going to be on the line.
And the Democrats, they hate Donald Trump so much.
There's no line they won't cross.
All right.
So if you missed the president was so on his game at NATO, it was very funny.
NATO Secretary General referred to President Trump as daddy, referring to his harsh words, you know, and his involvement in this conflict and taking out Iran's nukes.
Let me play that for you.
I mean, we may do papers on it, Marco.
Maybe we're going to do papers.
I don't even know if you need them.
They're not going to be fighting each other.
They've had it.
They've had a big fight like two kids in a schoolyard.
You know, they fight like hell.
You can't stop them.
Let them fight for about two, three minutes.
Then it's easier to stop them.
And then Daddy has to sometimes use strong language.
I'm telling you, you have to use a certain word.
Daddy has to use strong language.
This is just hilarious.
So he's asked about how he feels about being called daddy.
Marco Rubio behind the president is just dying laughing when this comes up.
But here's the reporter's question and President Trump's response.
This is from Sky News.
Mark Ritter, the NATO chief, who is your friend, he called you Daddy earlier.
Do you regard your NATO allies as kind of children?
No, he likes me.
I think he likes me.
If he doesn't, I'll let you know.
I'll come back and I'll hit him hard, okay?
He did.
He did it very effectually.
Hey Daddy, you're my daddy.
It was so funny.
Did that crack you up as much as it cracked me up at first?
That made me laugh.
I love the fact that this woman in a press conference at The Hague had to use the word daddy.
I thought that was hysterical, like in her very refined, how did you feel about being called daddy, President?
Oh, this is a good idea.
Did you like being called daddy?
I was, I was dying.
And Marco just, I mean, he's just hysterical.
He lost it.
He's like, it was so freaking funny.
It definitely took the president.
He kind of like waited a beat.
He was like, wait, what?
Just a classic Trump moment.
You know, another classic.
People don't know what a wicked sense of humor he has.
They just don't.
I wish they did.
I wish they knew the person, Donald Trump, the way I know the person, Donald Trump, and the person I've known for all these years.
I mean, even people that I've seen this happen, even people that you know inclined, you know, don't like Donald Trump being tough Donald Trump, which you need in a president.
And then they meet him and they can't help but walk away liking him way more than they ever imagined they would.
Let's go to Jenny in my free state of Florida.
What's up, Jenny?
How are you?
Glad you called.
By the way, where do you live in Florida?
I live in Miami.
Well, you should be coming to the show Sunday night in Fort Lauderdale.
Well, I wanted to know if you had two extra tickets for me.
I would love to come.
Linda, will you find two extra tickets for our friend?
It's going to be at the Broward Center for Performing Arts.
We will get you two complimentary tickets, okay?
I don't know where, but I'll get them for you.
Amazing.
I'm very excited.
So I want to say thank you for that.
And I also just want to say, as an American Jew, I want to thank you for your like unwavering support for Israel and the Jewish people.
And also, I want to thank President Trump for his courage to send those brave pilots into the hands of the enemy to help save the world from the mullahs of Iran, as you say, having a nuclear weapon.
Like, I know me and my whole Jewish community is so grateful.
And I just wanted to have the opportunity to say that.
Well, you're very kind, but you don't have to thank me for doing what is clear.
I have absolute moral clarity in terms of what is right and what is wrong.
We know that the radical Islamists that have been trying to destroy Israel cannot have nuclear weapons.
It is not a hard call for me.
I agree with the Trump doctrine that they had to be taken out.
But I also agree with the president.
We don't need a forever war.
And the Iranians now will decide they will be the masters of their future destiny here.
And if they want peace, Israel will give it peace.
You know, after the UN partition plan in 1948, if you go back and look at the words of Israel's first prime minister, Ben-Gurion, he said he reaches out his arms and the friendliness and search for peace.
And then Israel was invaded the next day.
And Israel has had to fight back enemies that surround this little country the size of New Jersey.
This is their homeland.
That's the end of the discussion.
And it's about the size of New Jersey.
And they have had nothing but hostility against them from that day forward.
And it is just unjust and unfair.
And I will say this, Israel has never had a better friend than Donald Trump moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, recognizing Israel territory in Golan and the West Bank, and obviously standing with Israel to prevent the Iranians from having nuclear weapons, providing the Iron Dome.
You just have not had a better friend than the United States.
You did not have a friend in Obama.
You did not have a friend in Joe Biden.
Their appeasement policies made life more difficult for the people of Israel.
Faith is in Arizona next on the Sean Hennerty show.
Hey, Faith, how are you?
Great.
How are you today?
It sounds like a great day.
I always like the name Faith because you have to have faith.
I appreciate it.
Yes.
Hey, the reason I was calling is, isn't there anything we can do about these protesters?
Couldn't we make it illegal to be hiring protesters?
The reason I'm focusing on that is I talk to people, coworkers, that type of thing, and they believe what they're seeing.
I try to tell them that these are actors that are being hired.
They're people out there that are for hire.
They're not necessarily people that are passionate about the cause.
They're people looking for a paycheck.
And some of them are unscrupulous.
They'll use bricks, rocks, that type of thing.
But it doesn't seem like most of America realizes that these people may not actually be passionate about the cause.
It seems like instead they're believing the theatrics that they're seeing.
And it's bad for America because then they think, well, heck, most of America is feeling like this.
Maybe I should change my views.
It's like, no, they're not thinking that.
Instead, they're hiring well-paid actors to go out and act like that's their cause.
Yeah, we have a term for it.
It's called astroturfing.
And they get paid to do it.
And that's what they do.
Couldn't we make that illegal?
Because what it is, is actually a lie.
You can't make it.
Well, I mean, in some senses, it could violate if it's a campaign, you know, campaign finance.
There can be instances of campaign finance violations.
But we've got to respect the fact that we have freedom of speech in this country and the freedom of speech for people to be stupid and to say stupid things and to do stupid things.
On the other hand, all of these protests, for example, when congressmen and women have been doing these town halls and these lunatics show up and disrupt the town hall, you know, even Chucky Schumer acknowledged that they're coming from out of town and it's part of a strategy to create a false image that their complicit allies in the legacy media run with.
Oh, a Republican congressman was heckled at a town hall and beaten up over Doge, and it just is not true.
It's fake news.
And they just, you know, they're about an inch deep, so they don't care about the truth.
Anything that would make Republicans and Donald Trump look bad, that's what they're going to go for.
Anyway, Faith, God bless you.
George, again, in my free state of Florida.
What's up, George?
How are you?
Hey, Sean, how's it going, my friend?
Hey, I just want to let you know my wife and I are excited.
We're going to go see you to Clearwater.
And I bought myself.
Oh, awesome.
I'll see you on Saturday night.
Looking forward to it.
Thank you for coming.
Yeah, I bought myself a patriotic shirt.
So I just wanted to know that no pressure on you, Sean.
I know you're going to be part of the Patriot, and Jim's going to be doing the punch hunt.
Punchlines and Patriots.
We might have a little surprise or two up our sleeve.
Linda, on a scale of one to 10, how funny was I at the Fox Patriot Awards?
17.
Really?
I thought you were very good.
It was a good moment for you.
You know, I mean, I do a serious news, I do serious news information commentary, but I do, I mean, there's always on this show, there's always a show behind the show.
And it is wickedly irreverent, politically incorrect, over the top, insane.
And I've got a great team of people that, you know, they just don't live in that world of being triggered.
And so we, you know, we kind of joking around all the time, but the nature of this show is just different.
I mean, look, these are serious times, but we can have fun and make fun of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsom and, you know, all the other lunatics out there.
We can do that.
Yeah, you know, and it's funny.
I was actually in Atlanta.
I drove up yesterday and I listened that Linda might even show up at one of your shows.
So I'm like, oh, man, I might get to hopefully maybe get Linda too if she comes down.
Linda, are you going to show up in Clearwater or Fort Lauderdale?
Yes or no?
Well, Wonders Ever Cease?
I don't know.
It could be a surprise.
I don't think Linda shows.
There's no way she's showing up.
I'm not believing it for a second.
You will get to meet Stanger, though.
Stanger's definitely going.
He's bringing friends.
He's bringing Tito's.
He's bringing all the things.
All the things.
All the things that come in, George.
They all come in Florida, the free state of Florida.
Anyway, I'm looking forward.
We're going to be in Clearwater this Saturday night.
Ruth Eckert Hall, 7 o'clock sharp.
Got to get there early.
Yes, there is security.
And Sunday, we will be at the Broward Center for Performing Arts.
Again, 7 o'clock on Sunday.
And that's in Fort Lauderdale.
And I'm looking forward.
And thanks to everybody that's coming.
I really, I can't thank you enough.
And we're going to film the Fort Lauderdale show for Fox Nation, which is really exciting.
And by the way, do you know how many requests we're getting to do other venues around the country?
It's crazy.
Listen, take it on the road.
Take it on the road.
Meanwhile, you don't like when I go on the road.
You're like, I didn't say take me on the road.
I said take it on the road.
It's a very different thing.
You know, when I say we're going to do the show from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Doha, you didn't exactly jump on.
Oh, no, no, no.
I said I would come.
I just said I wouldn't cover.
And you said, I don't want an international incident.
I said, all right.
That's not exactly what happened.
You were never a contender to come.
Oh, that's just mean.
No, it's not me.
Never a contender.
Come on.
I own the ring.
No, you have a family, and I was not going to.
No, I have to look out for your family.
What are you looking out for my family?
By the way, Anthony agreed with me 100,000%.
Your husband agrees with me.
Well, you know what?
I would have had an international pure talk phone and I could have called them every day and it would have been fine.
Not really.
All right, that's going to wrap things up for today.
Hannity tonight, 9 Eastern on the Fox News channel.
The big, big lie, typical media.
And, of course, weaponized intelligence community at it again as it relates to the success of Donald Trump's attacks and wiping out and obliterating the nuclear facilities of Iran.
We'll have an investigation.
We'll check in with Tom Cotton, New Gingrich.
Also, new poll numbers really showing the president a good light.
Matt Towery, Robert Cahaley, Curtis Sleewa taking on the radical leftist socialist Mom Donnie.
