Sean Hannity.
The new Sean Hannity Show.
More behind-the-scenes information.
Information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
Coming up next, our final news roundup and information overload hour.
All right, news roundup information overload hour.
Here's our toll-free number.
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program in just a minute, uh friend of the program, our friend Peter Navarro is going to be with us.
He's got a phenomenal new book out.
I want all of you to get this book.
Because what happened to him should never happen to any American ever.
I went to prison so you won't have to.
A love and lawfare story in Trump land.
Uh and I'm going to tell you something.
You once you pick it up, you're never going to put it down.
Uh, but before we get to Peter, I want to take you back, President Trump commenting.
Remember, this all had to do with Peter Navarro.
He had the option.
He didn't, he could have gone before the what, January 6th committee, whatever it was, and fled the fifth and just sat there and said, uh, I plead the fifth, I plead the fifth, I plead the fifth.
And he refused to do that.
And they did this to him, they did this to Steve Bannon, and they never do this to other people.
You can go back into the Obama administration, etc.
etc.
All these people, you know, would would uh would get referrals.
Nothing ever happens.
But no, in their case, they put them in jail.
And I remember the day Peter was going to jail.
I remember the day that he was outspoken speaking to the cameras.
And I this my heart broke, because you know, nobody deserves this for that.
It's so ridiculous.
Anyway, um, I want to play what President Trump said at the time.
This is back in March of 24.
President, do you think this is a big portion of Peter Navarro to prison?
Shame.
I think it's a disgrace.
It's a disgrace to our nation with it.
Anyway, Peter Navarro joins us now.
Uh, sir, welcome back to the program.
Glad you're with us.
I'm glad you wrote this this book, and uh thank you for sharing it with us.
Um, it really is pretty unbelievable.
You you stood on principle because you said at the time, and I remember and you repeated it that this was a constitutional issue.
This is about executive issues, executive power, executive privacy.
We'll never have people that can advise a president if they're if they're going to go to his advisors and demand that they tell them uh what advice they gave the president.
Nobody will ever be free to do that.
Sean, you're absolutely right.
And the good news here is that my case remains on appeal.
It's on its way to the Supreme Court, U.S. versus Peter Navarro is a landmark case on the constitutional separation powers.
And you're absolutely right.
It's not a partisan issue.
Uh, we'll never uh be safe from imprisonment if I lose my case.
Uh Sean, I went to prison so you won't have to.
I I you are in the dedication, my brother.
You were there for me throughout the whole thing, not only with support, but also with really good analysis.
You were one of the few who understood the constitutional issues, and I went to prison so you won't have to, is is a warning if they can put me and Bannon in prison, if they can try to put Trump in prison, uh they can Come for you.
They will put you in prison.
In fact, I I would say that if we lose the White House again in 28, uh there's going to be people on our side of the fence who are going to prison simply because the other side can.
But it's also an expose, Sean, because what's really interesting is the FBI agent who put me in leg irons and handcuffs, a guy named Walter Giadina, um, on that fateful day when they surrounded my fiancee and I, five darn FBI agents.
Um, it's come out now that I I was just a tip of the G. This guy, Sean, was one of the guys, according to whistleblowers at the FBI, who said the steel dossier, the fake steel dossier funded by Hillary Clinton, was real, and essentially, because he vetted it in that way, it went forward, gave birth to crossfire hurricane.
And Chuck Grassley through whistleblowers has now uncovered a whole treasure trove of how this guy, you follow him, what he did to me, Sean, and what he did to Donald Trump, and he was involved in virtually every opportunity and and targeting of Donald Trump, either to stop him from getting elected, 2016, 2020, and 2024, or getting him out of office.
He's a insurrectionist in my judgment, uh, and an election interferer in my judgment, but he's one of many, Sean.
And the the whole message of I went to prison so you won't have to, is simply this.
If we don't hold these people accountable, they'll do it again.
And the people, Sean, you know the list.
It's it's Comey, Clapper, Brandon, Page, Struck, Garland, Matt Graves, his assistant, it's it's Pelosi, it's Benny Thompson, it's Liz Cheney, it's all these people who think that they can use our justice system to punish us.
And Sean, this is I mean, everybody I served with in that first White House at the senior level has paid a heavy price.
Dan Scavino, close friend of the president, you know well, Sean, uh, Mark Meadows, former chief of staff, millions of dollars they had to pay.
Rudy Giuliani, America's mayor, they bankrupted him, Jeff Clark, John Eastman, they're trying to take their law license.
They they put Steve and I in prison.
They tried to put uh President Trump in prison, and they tried to assassinate him twice, and the worst of all is my brother, Charlie Kirk, getting assassinated by these people who seem to have no bounds or boundaries in terms of what they will do to us.
So, Sean, I appreciate the time today.
I went to prison so you won't have to, is the wake-up call, and I can't thank you enough for being so supportive, sir, during my trials, literally, and travails.
I have spent years on this issue of the deep state uh starting with the dirty Russian disinformation dossier, FISA applications, the phony Russia, Russia, Russia hoax.
Uh we had a very small ensemble cast of people that you know I spent years exposing it.
Everything that is now recently come out has proven us to be correct, uh more right even than I knew at the time, but we knew we were right.
And you know, what's amazing about your story to me, and I I can't put enough emphasis on this, um, is you stood on principle.
You could have taken the the path of least resistance.
You could have just fled the fifth.
And you would have walked out of there and it would have been over.
However, the principle of what you were doing was right.
And then as a result, they tried to treat you like a terrorist for crying out loud the way they treated you.
And you if you want to talk about that, feel free.
Sean, uh I I believe very strongly that we have to honor our oath of office and and protect the Constitution.
And I yes, I was willing to put my life on the line, literally, because prison that's no country for old men, my friend.
It was a dangerous place.
Um I made the best of it.
Uh, but I I hope, you know, that if you remember my speech the Republican National Convention, the the remarkable thing about that was that was the night of the day I got out of prison.
And having the opportunity to talk about uh that experience and and to to the the American people, I think it was a wake up call.
I think it might have got a one or two votes for the boss.
He would have won in a landslide anyway.
But this battle is far from from one.
I mean, look, it's like if you look at what they're doing.
Here's the thing, Sean.
How do they call us fascist?
It's like Schumer.
It's this Jasmine Crockett, who's so unhinged, Maxine Waters, AOC, Bernie Sanders, Hakeem Jeffries.
They all got the same talking point.
We're the fascists, right?
And I went to prison.
They put me in prison.
And I'm supposed to be the fascist.
They killed Charlie Kirk, and he was supposed to be the fascist.
They they tried to put Donald Trump in prison.
So look, um, if we don't hold him accountable, that's the message of I went to prison so you won't have to.
They'll do it again and again and again and again.
Because Sean, they have no filters, no boundaries.
You look at the that the crap they spew, um, the these can congressional representatives.
I mean, can you imagine Adam Schiff being Senate majority leader and Jasmine Crockett being the House majority leader?
What kind of I'm about to vomit, but keep going.
Yeah, so um I I think that after President Trump got elected in a landslide, too many of us on the MAGA side of the fence relaxed and said that okay, now we're gonna get great government, we're gonna get things.
And that's what we're getting from Donald Trump.
No question about it.
But these dark forces are just waiting to get back power.
Oh, they're they're dying to get back, and and they will come after conservatives with a vengeance, just like they did the last time, probably even worse than before.
You know, um when we had Paul Manafort on the program and and man that what they did to that guy and put him in isolation.
I don't know if you ever had a chance to read his book, but he he would tell the story basically on a regular basis, they'd come and say, just tell us what we want to hear, we'll let you out today.
And that is a an incredible incentive, because I gotta imagine, as you said, not a fun place to be in prison, right?
And he said, Well, I uh if I told you that it would be a lie.
And he could have sold his soul.
And he could have lied.
And he would have gotten freedom, but I don't think you're ever free if you live with that kind of lie.
And he wouldn't do it.
And then he told me, and this shocked me, that the the the one thing that gave him hope is I didn't know he'd listened to Rush for three hours, me for three hours, Lavin for three hours, and then we would one of the prison guards would put up my TV show and he'd hear me talking about him every night.
Uh and that made me, you know, feel good that it could that it gave him some hope and comfort in a time where, you know, his life was was falling apart in many ways.
It just life stops.
Two days before I uh I went behind bars, uh, I had a long talk with Paul, and uh I feature that in I Went to Prison So you won't have to, uh as a thank you to him because uh he let me know what the worst case scenario might be.
He he was the worst case, you know.
What the thing they did to him, Sean, which was so unforgivable, is they put him in jail before they even charged or tried him ri ri with anything on the grounds he was a flight risk.
And he I think he spent over a year behind bars before he was even convicted of anything, which is which is just I mean, that's beyond criminal.
But he he he gave me some guidance uh about how to structure inside, you know, you make sure you you work, you do your writing.
That was the basis for the diary, actually, Sean, that that constitutes uh the bulk of I went to prison so you won't have to.
No computers in there, brother.
Um and he tells he also talked about the importance of routine and and doing your push-ups and sit-ups and taking care of your body, because prison uh will kill you and it will take time off your life even if you survive.
And and that's what I I went through, you know, the the the conditions in there.
And yeah, if you want to learn what's what it's like to go to prison for a misdemeanor defending this country, like read read I went to prison so you won't have to.
That's part of the story.
All right, quick break.
More with Peter Navarro.
Uh I went to prison, so you won't have to.
A love and lawfare story in Trump land, uh telling us his incredible journey.
He didn't have to go to prison, but he stood on his principles.
More with Peter on the other side.
If you want to get the book, Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores now all around the country as we continue.
We continue now with Peter Navarro.
His new book is out.
I went to prison, so you won't have to.
A Love and Law Fair Story in Trump Land.
Uh, and you can get it on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
How bad was it for you?
I mean, I I remember I remember being, you know, just I had like sick to my stomach watching that all unfold and watching you go in that day and just you know, hoping everything was going to be okay.
What was it like for you in there?
Sure, I I I went in there not knowing that, but it was interesting.
Um the prison was was largely supportive of Donald Trump uh because uh Biden had let so many prisoners down in so many colors.
And there's a funny story in the book about how like on the third day these guys surround me, and I it's like I'm thinking, okay, what's gonna go wrong here?
And they start telling me about how they admire and trust me because I didn't snitch.
Yeah, I'm sitting there, it's like this comic Kafka Joseph Heller moment thinking about the moral equivalence between uh refusing to testify to defend the Constitution and on the one on we from their point of view, not telling on their gang members because it was something they did that broke the law.
Yeah, but you know, dangerous guys, but but a lot of humanity in there.
There's another story about how like the first day uh they they they helped the culture there is that a new prisoner comes in, they don't hate him.
They actually give you some sneakers and and a blanket if you need it and things like that that they collect from everybody who leaves like the day before.
Um but yeah, I was able to save at least one guy's life, maybe two while I was in there.
And Sean, you'll never have a story like this.
I went in there and became an investigative reporter that uncovered a five billion dollar scandal inside the Bureau of Prisons.
And the epilogue to I went to prison, sir, you won't have to, is simply that on the outside I played a key role reforming the Bureau of Prison, got a new director in there, and I solved the very problem I identified, and that's gonna help uh over 50,000 people inside and their families at the at the savings of a million dollars.
So it's quite Peter, uh I want to you you you let out that you might have saved a life or two.
I'm gonna hold you over for just a couple more minutes if you have the time, because I I think it's worth people hearing these these stories um on the other side.
If you have the time, we'd love to for you to stay another minute.
Um our friend Peter Navarro's with us.

Uh we continue our final moments.
Uh, I just had a couple more questions from my friend Peter Navarro.
I went to prison, so you won't have to.
A love and lawfare story in Trump land.
And it's on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
Um, so you you take this stand on principle.
You could have gotten out of it, but you thought it was morally wrong to do so.
Uh they go full bore at you.
They put you, they do the same thing to Bannon, put you and Bannon in jail, and you go to prison, and you said when we were going to break that you even had a couple of moments that you were like Switzerland.
You you didn't get involved with with the various factions and groups within prison.
You just kept your head down.
You had a routine, you did your writing, you did your exercising, and people were very nice to you because you weren't a snitch.
But then you said you even saved a life or two.
That that got everybody's attention.
I want you to explain that.
Yeah, Sean, I didn't I didn't keep my head down.
What I did was move uh fluidly among among the groups and um over time and quickly uh when they needed help, I would come to it.
And there was uh one instance uh about a month or so in when one of the toughest and gruffest guys in the whole prison, big big big guy, he'd be on the basketball court every night, just throwing elbows, tough guy.
Um he comes to me about six o'clock at night uh with an interpreter.
He didn't speak a lick of English.
Um this tough gruff guy is literally in tears.
He's in so much pain.
He looks like he's like eight months pregnant, and through his interpreters telling him telling me that he went to the the guard on duty asking for some medical help and just wasn't getting it.
So uh I go go down the hall to the guard and uh look him in the eye, say, look, brother, you you got two choices here.
You can either not help this guy now, and he might die.
Tylenol's not gonna fix if that's what they wanted to give him.
Or you can get him some help.
And I walked back and within twenty minutes they had an ambulance there, and that night they operated on him for three hernias.
And if they hadn't operated that night, uh there's a good chance we will we would have lost that guy right in the dorm.
And it wouldn't been the first guy who died in that dorm.
So um these are the I mean, if you want to find out what what it's like to go to prison, read I went to prison so you won't have to.
That's part of the story, the whole prison um experience.
Um but but it's also this this warning cry here, Sean, because you know if if they get power back, they're gonna come after us.
The law fair is is draining us dry, taking our money for legal fields putting us in prison if they can, and now uh we've got just crazy people running around shooting people on the right because they call us fascist after they put us in prison.
It's it's just infuriating.
So um I you know I appreciate your support, Sean, on this, and um, uh you know I listen, they they wanted to go after everybody.
I mean, I had to hire a full-time legal counsel and legal team.
And I'm just uh I'm I'm uh I'm in the media, and man, did they come they just come after you with a vengeance and they try to get you for on on everything.
Um unbelievable, but nothing compared to what you went through.
I don't want to even begin because it, you know, I just have admiration for the fact that you stood on your principle.
I have an admiration for the fact that you know you looked fear in the eye and you just said, you know what, this is too important to give in uh to people that are abusing their power.
And I do hope, and I I pray, with all the information that has come out that all of these deep state operatives, all these people that abuse their power, all of these people that were dropping cinder blocks on the scales of an election.
Um I I I hope they're all held accountable for what they did because otherwise the constitutional republic that we love um is forever in jeopardy, and and it it scares the daylights out of me.
These elections matter.
Uh Peter Navarro, appreciate you, appreciate the book.
I went to prison, so you won't have to.
A love and lawfare story in Trump Land, and it's on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country.
Uh God bless you, my friend, and and keep up the good work in the White House.
Thank you for always having my back, brother.
800-941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
Uh all right.
Oh, Professor Katz is here.
Last time we had Professor Katz on.
He was going into surgery.
It had to do with cancer.
We've been all been praying for her.
And welcome back to the program.
How are you doing?
Thank you, Sean, so much.
Um, I will first of all I just want to say thanks to God and thank you to you and Linda and all the Hannity I for your love, your support, your prayers.
Um the doctor went in, he um was able to ablate the mass and the whole area, unfortunately.
They had to go in through some of the lungs, so that's why I have this like um, you know, Sean Hannity's sexy voice.
Um, but I'm waiting on the CT scans to see if they did in fact get everything.
They're hopeful that it didn't metastasize, but they couldn't do the biopsy because um I was not doing so well under the anesthesia, and they felt it was too risky to go through.
So they did keep me in the hospital, but I wanted to come home quickly.
I kept saying I want I I was like uh Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz, you know, about there's no no place like home, but I really I was not wanting to leave mom.
But I um will say that there is no cancer that I went through that is worse than you know the cancer that it's infected um our media and our society with the assassination of you know Charlie Kirk and um that just you know I that whole thing was playing out during my recovery and um you know it's what did they say there,
but for you know, uh God go I, you know, we just um my heart goes out to his beautiful wife and children.
I know what it feels like to lose a husband and for my son to be without a father um under totally different circumstances, but it's never easy, and I'm just so sad that um there are so many young people that are so hopeful and they're doing the right thing and opening up turning point USA um chapters in their colleges, and that we need more adults in the room.
Um you've got Jimmy Kimmel and you've got the entire left media saying things that are you know anti-Judeo Christian, anti-Semitic, anti, you know, Christianity, anti-American, you know, anti, you know, all the you know mega movement, um, which does nothing.
You've got the people that are using this to grift about the whole second amendment.
You know what?
The lady in Ukraine who was killed on the train, that was a knife.
Um what happened in Boston, you know, years ago, that was a bomb.
Are we in an outlaw cutlery?
Are we gonna it's it's it's not the instrumentality.
And then you have the little group on our side of the aisle that, you know, are attacking Fox News and attacking, you know, you and Mark Levin and and Ben Shapiro, um, attacking Prime Minister Netanyahu, attacking Israel.
Um, and you know, if it wasn't for Fox and Ben Shapiro Um and uh Dennis Prager, a lot of these people wouldn't even, you know, we wouldn't even know about them.
Um and so I want to say to all of them stop your grifting, stop your you know, clicks, um, put your prayers and you know, your support for the Kirk family for those children, and what you're doing is you're hurting President Trump, you're hurting his foreign policy.
Um, you are the same people that said, Oh, we shouldn't go into Iran and you know, it was gonna cause World War Three and called you and and Mark, you know, and and and you know, Ben, you know, warmongers.
It's like knock it off.
We don't need any division, we need unity.
And this is a time, if nothing else for this country to once and for all come together.
We have a wonderful president, and that's all he's been trying to do.
He's got a big tent, and everybody is welcome.
But like Ben said, that's why you get some of the clowns.
You know, we don't need clowns.
We need people who are gonna get out there.
And if you're a parent, get involved in your children's education.
If you're a teacher, stop the critical race theory, DEI, you know, fake history garbage.
Um, and if you're a young person, I encourage you stay off the internet, go to the library, read great books.
Um, Peter Navarro's was just on, he's a wonderful man, a man of courage.
There's so many great books out there to find out and listen to Sean.
You know, we should have T shirts that say not only was President Trump right about everything, Sean Hannity was right about everything.
And, you know, this is really a time um for kids to learn that you use your words.
You don't use violence.
Um let me tell you, Professor, I wish every professor was as articulate, informed, passionate as you are.
I really do.
Um I am so I only because I have to, for the constraints of time, and I have to get to other callers.
I am so happy that this went well for you.
We were worried about you.
We're not gonna lie.
And we were praying for you and in every good way.
And we need your voice, and these students that you teach need your voice.
And I just want to make sure that if there's anything we could ever do to help you, that you understand you are friends here.
Okay.
Thank you so much.
That just means the world to me.
And uh, you know, I hope, you know, we're just about to start the Jewish New Year, and you know, Charlie was um a big supporter of Israel and the Jewish people and celebrating Shabbat.
He was a person of faith and and family and friends, and preserving the freedom of this country, and that's what we really, really need.
Um, and uh I'm just really hopeful that with the Jewish New Year coming, that um when I get into the doctors for you know in a couple of weeks, he's out of town now, but um, that they're gonna say that you know I'm cancer free, and that's what I'm looking forward to, and and you know, to many more years of of being, you know, on the Sean Hannity show um as a caller and Professor.
I have a funny feeling that God is not done with you.
No way.
And that and uh we're gonna have many conversations in the years to come.
Professor Katz, appreciate you more than you know.
800, thank God she's okay.
800-941 Sean is our number if you want to be a part of the program.
Uh South Carolina, Ron is next.
Ron, how are you?
Glad you called.
Doing great, Sean.
Appreciate the show.
I could listen to the professor for quite a while.
She's very articulate.
I think I'll have to let her fill in one day because she won't she she can go on all day like me.
I hear you.
Well, listen, I haven't heard it in a long time, but let me tell you, you are a great American.
And I appreciate all you do.
Thank you.
And just God bless you.
You're a great American, and we have many great Americans in this country.
People that are, you know, they never get the credit that they deserve, the people that do make the country great every day, the unsung heroes every day.
Absolutely.
Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved with the with the with Charlie Kirk's um situation with our nation.
And I just had a question to you.
It seems to me this has the feel of a militant movement uh with what happened, how he was shot, uh the tr the children in the Catholic church that were killed by a transvest.
It seems like it's a militant uh there's a militant movement that's coming about.
I know that uh Cash Patel and the FBI are looking doing their due diligence, looking into the um looking into the context that this this gentleman had.
But I was just wondering if you thought this was an organized if is this an organized movement that that's coming up on on the scene.
I don't know.
The FBI I know is looking into any possible connections to any there there are armed groups, radicalized groups um in the area that seem to have the same political agenda as the shooter, as the assassin.
Uh do we know that there's a connection?
We don't, but I do know they're investigating very very keenly.
Another thing that bothers me, were there people that had knowledge that this was going to happen, and did they post that knowledge?
There's there's some anecdotal evidence, maybe real evidence that in fact uh that need that is being investigated.
And I, you know, those that were celebrating their uh as they were listening to Charlie, uh, I think every one of those people need to be questioned as well.
We uh we need to make sure any anybody involved in this is captured and punished appropriately.
We've got it, we've got to make sure we get to the root of all of this.
My friend, appreciate the call.
800-941 Sean.
I wish I had more time if you want to be a part of the program.
I think it's gonna wrap things up for today.
Tonight, Hannity, nine Eastern.
