	This is an iHeart Podcast.
	All right, thank you, uh Scott Shannon.
	Thanks to all of you for being with us.
	Write down our toll-free telephone number at 800 941 Sean.
	If you want to be a part of this extravaganza on this Friday, happy Friday to everybody.
	Ever notice the weeks just fly on by.
	You know, I I I really don't know whether to be mad or to be, you know, take it as a compliment.
	But Linda, you know, has kind of made this thing go a little viral that I'm that somehow, even though I've never said a word to anybody, never discussed it, never even thought about it, truth be told, that, oh, it's all the chatter online that I'm gonna run for president.
	I should show I guess I should take it as a compliment that there like are a couple of people that that like the idea.
	Not I'm not saying the masses never thought about it, but um, I think I came up with a better plan than you being vice president, and I think you probably will even approve of it.
	Okay.
	If I ever if I ever did consider running, I wouldn't pick you for VP.
	I hate it.
	I don't know what the terrible is.
	You don't know what the plan is.
	Okay.
	Well, I if I picked you for VP, all of a sudden I died from some mysterious poisoning within like three months into my presidency.
	It'd be over.
	Fake news.
	You give me a whopping six months.
	I really appreciate that.
	I'm nice of you, kind of you, and thoughtful of you.
	Um I would I'd run only if I could pick DJT as my vice president.
	How cool would that be?
	He's already done the presidential thing twice.
	Why would he be your VP?
	You know what I'd do a bit because if you go in the Oval Office, then there's this if there's a hall, and on the right side is a small bathroom, like you know, just the bathroom bathroom, you know, like a powder room bathroom.
	And then to the left side is the Monica Lewinsky room, which Trump has turned into like a memorabilia room, and he's very generous.
	You go in there and basically he's like, take anything you want.
	You can take a million hats.
	He even has a Trump Bible, he's got all this cool stuff.
	The key, which by the way, he does he has to give you that one, the key to the White House.
	And I have one.
	Did you know that?
	No, I did not.
	Okay.
	He gave me one.
	When I did the other.
	So you're already prepping for when you take over the country.
	That's great.
	No, I am not thinking I'm not sure.
	You already have the keys.
	You have one.
	I'm doing the I'm only doing this for kicks and giggles, so let me be very, very straightforward about it.
	This is not a Stephen A. Smith play.
	And I love my buddy Steve and I, but I called him one day, I'm like, you gotta stop.
	It is has to this has to end because he was enjoying it too much.
	So I should ignore the Hannity super pack ads that I'm getting.
	It's all it's all fake.
	Uh well, is I didn't know that was in the works.
	Uh, but I have but don't you think the better choice because then all right, and then next to that is a dining room.
	And then on the other side of that, they took what used to be an office, and that is now part of the Oval Office.
	And it's it's it's kind of become like I think what did the president tell me?
	He was thinking of making it the MLK junior room.
	I don't know if he they've if he's you know stated that publicly, but uh but you could put all of that in and replicate an there's enough room, I think, or enough square footage to almost replicate, duplicate, if you will, like a second Oval Office, and I can have him like, you know, hanging out right with me throughout the entire presidency, and we could have a grand old time.
	How cool would that be?
	Where is where is my office now that you've given mine away?
	Where's mine?
	Well, they have the White House communications and press office, which is tiny, and but you you get the biggest room in it.
	Right now, and Caroline Levitt is in there.
	You know what the problem is.
	Not to knock some walls down.
	Megan.
	Oh, you want to do you want an oval put in there too?
	Listen, I'm just saying, you know, I'll acquiesce it to POTUS.
	Oh, you acquiesce to Trump?
	You know, I mean, it's Trump.
	You know, you can't beat Trump.
	Okay.
	So you win that one.
	You're welcome.
	But if Trump says no, I've already done it twice.
	I'm gonna go back to private business and do my thing, then obviously the only next logical choice would be me.
	And I think that that's wise.
	The next obvious I think press secretary would be a far better jobs communications director.
	And I can do it all.
	The only question would be there would be an overunder of whether or not you would survive Anthony Scaramucci's record.
	I, by the way, have no issues with Anthony.
	Um he's got his opinions, they just differ than mine.
	And um, but he he didn't exactly last the longest there.
	And he had one amazing press conference, if you recall, it was pretty awesome.
	And you really but you would okay, and um I'm just wondering if you might have yourself, you know, fired faster than Anthony, and you might set the record.
	That's possible.
	I have a new idea.
	I'm gonna be the vice president, the communications director, and the press secretary.
	So since the the CD and the press secretary answered to the vice president and the president, I you know my job is secure, and I'm just gonna go out there and tell it like it is, which I think would be refreshing.
	Okay, well, you're not being offered any of that just for the record.
	You you have to be.
	I'm gonna be nominated.
	I know.
	I got it.
	You have to be chosen.
	It's fine.
	I am trusted.
	The audience has spoken.
	Audience has not spoken.
	We haven't put a poll up, but I don't even think I I don't think I can get 20% in a poll of yeah, Hannity should really consider running.
	I don't think it would happen.
	Uh and usually I'm right on the polls.
	We had a poll this week.
	I crushed you in that poll.
	You did win in that poll.
	That is true.
	I did.
	It was like seventy plus percent.
	Um, let me move on to the uh issues at hand here.
	We did get some some good news on the economy that I I can share with you.
	Um, Trump did sign and then uh a couple of things happened on the economy that I have the wrong pile in front of me, darn it.
	I hate when I do that.
	Um, here it is.
	Jobless claims continue to fall for the sixth straight week in a row.
	I'd love you know why I like that, because I believe in a meritocracy.
	I want Americans, I I do believe everybody was born with a purpose.
	I do believe the worst thing that could happen to anybody in their life is that they have nothing to do when they open their eyes every day.
	And I have friends of mine that have retired and have gone back to work because they don't like retirement.
	I have other friends that love retirement, but they do a bunch of things that they really are passionate about and love, and all of them usually have some business slash work component to their life.
	I think the idea that you get up every day, I I think we're meant to serve other people in some capacity.
	We're not kings and queens on a throne.
	Now, on the other hand, people have worked their entire lives, they put in their 40, 50 years, whatever it is in their profession, 30 years, I don't know, and they get their pension and they feel like they've done enough work in their life.
	But I find most of the people end up getting bored.
	I mean, you know, hitting a little ball and chasing it all day, even though if you're hitting it really good one day and then lousy the next day, I mean it takes a lot, it takes a lot of time and effort, but but people love hobbies and they love doing things that they wish they could do and never have time to do.
	But I love the idea that jobless claims, you know, for the weekending July nineteenth fell by four thousand, and then you know that the labor department's report showed that the four-week average claims, which evens out some of the weekly volatility declined dramatically, and this is now the sixth straight week in a row.
	I love that.
	Uh one of the funniest things that happened today is Democrats posted and then had to delete a chart because it implicated them for the inflation.
	And it was it drew widespread mockery like your idea that I should run for, you know, office um over a since deleted social media post showing how the cost of groceries skyrocketed under Joe Biden,
	and then it included a graph of soaring cheese, alcohol, dairy, grocery produce, meat prices dating back to October 2019, with the major inflection point being near the start of the Biden administration in 2021, and they wrote Trump's America.
	Prices are higher today than they were on July 24th, all in major categories listed below.
	Read the read the caption.
	Only problem is that was their that was their time in office.
	They get the blame for that.
	Uh so this week has been a big week for trade deals with the president announcing the big deal with Japan.
	That was the biggest of all of them, and Vietnam is done and Indonesia is done.
	Uh the president off to Scotland.
	He's gonna meet the head of Scotland, the head of uh Great Britain, uh Starmer's gonna be there as well.
	President also announcing that the Australia has accepted, has agreed to accept American beef for a long time.
	Even though we're great friends, they actually banned our beef.
	Now we're gonna sell so much to Australia because it's undeniable, irrefutable proof that U.S. beef is the safest and best in the entire world.
	The other countries that refuse our magnificent beef are on notice.
	All of our nation's ranchers who are some of the hardest working, most wonderful people are smiling today, which means I'm smiling too.
	Let's keep the hot streak going.
	It's a golden age of America.
	And but they did it for an interesting reason.
	Remember Mad Cow?
	They have some of the strictest biosecurity laws in the entire world after Mad Cow Disease back in 2003.
	I mean, I barely remember it.
	It's it's been that long.
	U.S. and Mexico did reach an agreement to fix a raw sewage crisis in Tijuana.
	And apparently Mexico and the U.S. signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at fixing the sewage crisis along our border in San Diego County.
	San Diego is so beautiful.
	They have the Del Coronado, one of the nicest hotels in America.
	Except there's only one person I've met in my life that didn't like it.
	Only one.
	And they didn't like it.
	Um the Trump you don't want to weigh in on that?
	No, I don't, because I'm gonna crush you.
	I'm letting you know.
	You're not gonna crush me.
	I am gonna crush you.
	You got a big reward.
	You sent me there when it was under massive construction, and there was construction.
	I didn't know there was any construction at the hotel.
	The Del Coronado is one of the most expensive and nicest hotels in the entire country.
	And because you were getting this award, what was the award for again?
	I forget.
	I don't know.
	I couldn't hear myself think over the constant jackhammering next to my room.
	I completely forgot about the award when I was.
	Okay, what was the what was the award for?
	It was the Agreessy Award.
	It's like the Emmy for radio production.
	It's the same thing.
	Okay, so you get this big award, and and then I said, you know what?
	Maybe I'll do something nice for Linda.
	So I get plain.
	I'm not coming to that because I'm not wearing any penguin suit to come see you get some award.
	So I'll send you some.
	But I don't go to anything.
	No, so what I did.
	Oh, you know, you make it sound like I'm a jackass when what I make it sound like I'm a jackass.
	And you know what?
	No, what I know what I am.
	Okay, what I ended up doing is I said, I really want to do something nice.
	Make this a very special time.
	So I purchased uh first class plane tickets for you and your entire family to fly to San Diego and back round trip, put you up in the nicest hotel in San Diego, the Del Coronado, which is not a cheap hotel.
	Uh, so I think it was for a full week vacation associated with it, and all I got from you was whining and complaining bitterly, and then there was one day I was scheduled off and I made a called an audible, which you're allowed to do if it's your show, and then you had a fit that I decided to work on a day when you were on supposed to be on vacation, not paying attention to work.
	And then you blame me for the fact that there was quote construction going on at the hotel, which I had no knowledge of.
	So first it wasn't a whole week.
	I'm never I don't take whole weeks unless you take a whole week.
	And even then I don't have to take can't take a whole week because I'm with the guest house.
	Second of all, the only reason I could do the three days was because you were away.
	So I had a Friday and I had a Monday.
	So I was able to fly, go, have the weekend, and then be back in the office on Monday.
	With your entire family to make it a very special weekend for you.
	And all you did was whine, bitch, moan, and complain about it.
	Oh, you ripped me to shreds over that.
	That's big news.
	That is the worst condemnation that you do CNN.
	Was you decided to work and I had to work the whole time I was there because I book guests when you complain, people don't return your calls.
	What do I do?
	I pick up the phone and all these people that don't return my calls, and I don't want to call them anyway.
	You make me call them.
	Oh, I make you call there's no making you do anything.
	And then so the bottom line is names on air, but all I did was catch hell.
	So the moral of the story is never try to do something nice for somebody who wins an award and send them to one of the nicest hotels on a free vacation.
	I will say the plane ride was very nice.
	I enjoyed the plane ride.
	The pilots let Liam go into the cockpit.
	That was fun.
	Why did they let you go in the cockpit?
	That's dangerous.
	No, they let little kids do that before the plane takes off.
	They let them come in and see how the plane looks.
	It's pretty cute.
	They gave Liam wings and all that stuff, right?
	All that cute stuff.
	It was nice.
	By the way, the president, I mean, this this is pretty remarkable, you know, that you have people now out there saying Hamas is not a terrorist organization.
	Who was it that made the comment, Linda, about Hamas?
	And there's a oh, that's right.
	It was um who the heck was it that did it?
	They said Hamas, they they they recognize Hamas.
	I'm like, you gotta be kidding me.
	In Hamas's charter, they call for the destruction of Israel.
	It is a terrorist organization.
	You saw what happened on October the seventh.
	That's the equivalent of 40,000 dead Americans in a single day.
	But this is, you know, the right.
	Oh, France and Macron, yeah.
	Yeah, but to that point.
	I thought you were talking about a pundit, but to that point, Donald Trump then commented quickly and swiftly and said it's a good thing nobody cares about the French president and what he says doesn't matter.
	Okay, so the president said Hamas appears to have a death wish after they refused to cut a hostage release deal, prompting now Israel to consider alternative options.
	They pulled out of Gaza, they pulled out in terms of negotiating.
	He said in a press gaggle today before his flight to Scotland, he said it's too bad.
	And it's very bad, and it's gotten to the point where you're gonna have to finish the job.
	Let me make a prediction.
	The same thing is going to happen with Iran.
	The Iranians, they they're out there boldly talking about rebuilding the nuclear program.
	The same thing is gonna happen.
	What the hell is wrong with Macron?
	Did you see the lawsuit that the Macron's filed against Candace Owens?
	Did that not make you laugh?
	It's just I think it's that's a good one.
	The whole issue just cracked me up.
	It's just dumb.
	You're just drawing more attention to it.
	So what are you doing?
	Uh yeah, I mean, I honestly had never heard of it before, and um I know nothing about it.
	I'm not getting involved in this, but I just thought it was really you're the president of France, you don't have anything better to do with your time.
	Um let me uh add a couple things.
	The president did a few things today that are worth noting today.
	One, he signed an executive order to make it easier to relocate addicted and mentally ill homeless people that are living on the street, and it directs the attorney general Pam Bondi to reverse judicial precedence and end consent decrees that limit jurisdictions and abilities to relocate homeless people, and it redirects federal resources so that affected homeless people are transferred to rehabilitation and substance misuse facilities.
	Um and the whole purpose is is to make it easier for local jurisdictions to remove homeless people from the streets.
	These people usually have problems.
	Either mental many of them have mental problems, you know, m disturbances, if you will, and and many have addiction issues.
	I never understood if if you're a mile away from Nancy Pelosi's gated community where she lives with very wealthy people in one direction, then in on the other side of a mile away is her where her offices are located,
	and in the middle is where people are just shooting up and defecating in the streets and urinating in the streets, and and why didn't she ever once get together with her rich friends and you know build out you know a facility where they can offer people you know one or two meals, three meals a day, and and maybe some mental health counseling.
	I think they could afford it if they had the desire to, but it just reinforces something I've said for a long time that liberals are only generous with other people's money.
	Now back to the big story of the week.
	We're gonna do a deep, deep dive into how corrupt this all is um in terms of the Russia Russia Russia hoax and the declassification and the fact that the original uh senior intelligence officials, and this is uh, you know, like six weeks after the 2016 election, they made an assessment, an intelligence community assessment, an ICA.
	And in that assessment, they determined no that there was no Trump Russia collusion.
	And Obama and Brennan and Clapper and Comey and nobody else liked that assessment, so they ordered another one.
	And against the the strong opposition of the people that actually put the real intelligence together, they turned it on its head, they corrupted it, they polluted it, and they turned it into the exact opposite of what the the real intelligence was showing us to deceive the country, but more sinister in in their what their desire was was to destroy Donald Trump and his ability to govern as a duly elected president.
	Now John Brennan, former CIA director, has hired legal representation following this declassification, and the report reveals Brennan insisted on including the unverified uh Hillary Clinton bought and paid for disinformation dossier.
	I'll get into more detail in a second about this in the critical twenty December twenty sixteen intelligent assessment, despite opposition from all the senior and these are career CIA rank and file CIE senior officers that argued it did not meet basic agency standards.
	And the steel dossier, which was paid for by the Clinton campaign, contained unverified, and by the way, by December of that year was completely debunked and and steel was shown the door.
	And sensational allegations about Trump, including the you know, the compromising activities with hookers and the rich Carlton in Moscow and them urinating on Donald Trump.
	It was just a crock from the beginning.
	They knew it, they didn't care.
	And they purposely inserted it.
	Um, President Trump just landed in Scotland.
	Um we've got to try.
	And then we're going to Aberdeen, which is the oil capital of Europe, actually.
	What is kind of what is missing in the UK deal that you have to work out?
	Nothing.
	We uh just I think it's more of a celebration than a hookout.
	It's uh it's a great deal for both, and uh, we're gonna have a meeting on other things other than the deal.
	The deal is concluded.
	Um recognition Palestinian state, what's the comment?
	Well, that's what he does.
	I mean, you know, he uh that's fine if he does that.
	That's up to him.
	It's not up to me.
	I'm with the United States, I'm not with France.
	And the situation in Gaza, we get very dire warnings about it.
	I think it's terrible.
	What happened with Hamas?
	They tapped everybody along, and we'll see what happens, we'll see what uh response Israel has to that.
	It's getting to be that time.
	You said there's a 50-50 chance of a deal.
	What is left to work out?
	What are the final sticking points?
	I don't know.
	With the uh European Union, I think we have a good 50-50 chance.
	That's a lot.
	What are the sticking points that you say?
	Well, I don't want to tell you what the sticking points are, but the sticking points are having to do with uh maybe uh twenty different things.
	You don't want to listen to all of them.
	Yes.
	What if I think it'll have for our prime minister about free speech?
	Very important people.
	Well, it is, but I like your prime minister.
	He's slightly more liberal than I am, as you've probably heard.
	But he's a good man, he got a trade deal done.
	And uh, you know, they've been working on this deal for twelve years.
	He got it done.
	It's a good deal.
	It's a good deal for the UK.
	So uh no, I'll be seeing him tomorrow, I guess, tomorrow evening.
	And this is our wonderful ambassador, as you know, he's doing a good job.
	He'll be he's a very, very successful man, he'll be doing a good job.
	So the Royal Ancient the Royal and Ancient says he's gonna have to bring infrastructure at Turnbury to bring the oak back.
	It's not something the best course, the best course anywhere in the world is Turnberry.
	The players all want to be a Turnberry.
	Everybody wants to be a Turnbury, so we'll see how that works out.
	The infrastructure needs to be a very good thing.
	Oh, I think the well the infrastructure in the course is good.
	In fact, the Royal and Ancient uh I don't know if you're aware of this.
	They spent a lot of money, hundreds of thousands of dollars, or probably into the millions of dollars.
	And they've laid all the wire for television and for electricity under the holes of Turnbury.
	So, the president he landed in Scotland.
	Remember the scene.
	What we've been doing all these years.
	Anyway, so the Steel Dossier bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton's campaign contained unverified sensational allegations.
	It was debunked completely by the time they were doing all this.
	And John Brennan admitted that he voted for the communist candidate in a 1976 presidential election.
	So, you know, he's a radical.
	You know, he, you know, Trump even acknowledged, by the way, earlier today, that Barack Obama committed, he believes, criminal acts, but probably benefits from the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity.
	It probably helps him a lot, the immunity ruling, he said, but it doesn't help the people around him at all.
	I'm not sure if you can say it's official acts if you're purposely trying to corrupt and pollute uh what is real classifications.
	I don't know if you can say that.
	I don't know if that falls under the category of presidential, you know, um immunity or presidential acts of what they did here, because the dossier was exploited to justify the the remember, they got the intelligence from senior intelligence officials.
	And what they found is they engineered the full false intelligence because they didn't like the real intelligence.
	The real intelligence said there was no Trump Russia collusion.
	The only real the only Russia collusion was Hillary Clinton's bought and paid for dirty disinformation dossier.
	But anyway, the documents now show that a December 8th, 2016 draft of the Presidential Daily briefing debunked the notion of Russian electoral meddling to help Trump.
	The problem was uh the problem and that was problematic because it didn't conform to the preferred narrative of Trump Russia collusion.
	And if the FBI director and his cohorts, they scuttled it away.
	One thing nobody's picked up on, and why James Comey should be very nervous.
	He was warned not to use that dossier in his first FISA application.
	Well, that was in October of 2016.
	He signed the first three of them.
	By this time they know that it's phony.
	Anyway, so both him and Brennan and others, you know, they insisted, they ignored the the experts, they ignored, you know, this this false narrative.
	They ignored the warnings about the dirty dossier not being consistent with any standard.
	And then by January 6th, they rushed to completion this intelligence uh report.
	It was produced a new ICA, and it was, you know, the exact opposite of what career professionals and senior professionals in the CIA and and elsewhere in intelligence community have put together.
	You know, they rushed that out and offered a remarkable transformation.
	You know, in the head spinning about faced by the Intel conclusions, they did it against, you know, very vigorous opposition within the CIA not to do this.
	And anyway, um Brennan denied numerous delusions that the fake dossier was placed in the formal intelligence assessment.
	And in fact, it was put in there, and Comey then met with Trump later that day in a devious but misbegotten scheme to entrap him.
	It failed miserably because the newly elected president had no idea what the FBI director was even talking about.
	But Obama was the one, according to all these memos and reports that it instigated the entire thing.
	And they all lied repeatedly about this contrived narrative, and that this was all created in intelligence in January of 2017.
	Gabbard accused Brennan of lying about his use of the dossier, even though he knew it was a discredited politically manufactured Document.
	He directed senior CIA officials to use it anyway.
	Other intel agencies that typically contribute to the assessment were deliberately excluded because they knew it would contradict the narrative that they wanted.
	As irrefutable proof, uh Pulsey Gabbard unlocked a 2020 report of the House Intelligence Committee that had never been seen publicly thanks to Adam Schiff, who buried it in a as a classified and a limited access vault at CIA headquarters.
	That report outlined in detail the events that she summarized.
	And don't forget he wrote Witch Hunt.
	He wrote back then the number one New York Times bestseller.
	John Brennan was instrumental in proliferating the dossier.
	But even before the Clinton campaign and Democrats funded Christopher Steele's project to smear Trump with a collusion hoax, the seat of collusion and that narrative were germinated by none other than Brennan.
	You know, and I kind of agree with Jonathan Turley that if I was Brennan, I think I'd get myself a pretty darn good lawyer.
	here.
	Because they were, you know, they used the full force of the federal government to delegitimize the results of the 2016 election, and the intelligence community pre-bunked the very real laptop.
	They they authenticated it the laptop in March of 2020.
	That's another election they're putting cinder blocks on the scale of an election.
