This is an iHeart podcast.
Guaranteed human.
Thanks to all of you for being with us.
Write down our toll-free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program.
It's 800-941 Sean.
If you want to join us, we are in our nation's capital.
We are in D.C.
And by the way, our prayers still go out to the family.
I've been in touch with this one National Guard.
I don't want to keep giving out the names of the families.
I just want them to have a little bit of privacy.
But the mother of, I'll just say Andy, National Guardsman, West Virginia, 24 years old.
We lost a 20-year-old National Guardswoman.
Phenomenal people.
But, you know, the one thing I can tell you with the murder rate down here, down 70% here, it is such a discernible, amazing difference that you can see with your naked eyes here.
It is so discernibly different.
It is so the streets have been all the homeless people that would dominate the streets of D.C., they are not around.
You don't see them.
It's like they disappeared.
And if they were smart, I would recommend they go to California.
They're going to get free benefits for everything from Gavin.
And let the taxpayers of California that love to pay high taxes, they pay the highest income taxes, sales taxes, gas taxes.
Let them take care of the people.
And it's going to be warmer weather.
I highly recommend Southern California.
If you want a specific location, you can start it on the 101 freeway.
There's a huge fig tree down State Street in Santa Barbara where a lot of homeless people congregate, or you just go down to the beach.
And when I lived there, I used to go down.
I remember, you know, if I had days off, I'd go hang out with just at the beach, and I got to meet a lot of the homeless people.
I came to really love them.
I thought they were pretty amazing.
Got to know a lot of them were, you know, vets suffering from PTSD.
We hadn't even labeled it PTSD at that point in my life.
We're talking about the 80s here.
But I'd hang with them.
And, you know, when I first went out there, I was having trouble, you know, building my contracting business up the way I had it in Rhode Island.
I was like, you know, that actually ended up helping me get into radio.
That didn't last very long.
I didn't survive very long with that.
All right.
So the president, we're going to play this in some detail today.
Well, first, let me explain why we're here in D.C.
We obviously have had enormous success with the administration and peace around the globe.
And it's been pretty phenomenal.
And I think it's, you know, it really hasn't gotten the amount of attention that it deserves, in my view.
And, you know, the president has involved himself, not just with Russia and Ukraine, but he's involved himself all around the world.
And it's had an impact.
As the president says, he's played a role in, you know, peace deals, you know, from Cambodia, Rwanda, the Congo, Vietnam, I mean, India, Pakistan, and the list goes on and on.
So we are going to be interviewing the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, also the Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Also, we will be interviewing, actually, they agreed to come on together.
Senators never agree to come on the shows together.
They all want to come on alone, which I understand.
It's fine.
And so we have a lot that's going on here.
We will be here tomorrow as well.
And I'll tell you, though, my interview with Marco, there's one thing that I want to ask more than anything else.
And I just have not decided yet if I'm going to ask it in the beginning of the interview or at the end of the interview.
And there is this recent documentary that has come out called Age of Disclosure.
And Marco is in it.
And he talks about we have repeated instances of something operating in the airspace over restricted nuclear facilities and it's not ours.
And then he leaves this tease where he says presidents even operate on a need-to-know basis.
Now, I've never discounted the possibility of UFOs in my entire life.
Because to me, you know, God is omnipotent.
I believe that, you know, as science advances and we learn that we discover more universes than we ever knew before.
And as technology advances, creation is far greater than we ever imagined even, you know, 15, 20 years ago.
And I think with artificial intelligence, our discoveries will even get greater.
I mean, I hope people are paying attention to artificial intelligence.
I am going to do specific shows.
I can't talk about it now on how artificial intelligence is going to change the world.
I'm telling you, and you need to be ahead of the curve, and I'm going to make sure everybody in this audience is ahead of the curve.
Anyway, let me play, this is one question I'm going to ask Marco.
Obviously, we're going to talk about the basic question, but I want to play this one.
We've had repeated instances of something operating in the airspace over restricted nuclear facilities, and it's not ours.
Even presidents have been operating on a need-to-know basis, but that begins to ramp out of control.
I don't, to me, that's a great mystery.
And it's a documentary.
It's on prime.
It is fascinating.
I interviewed the guys on television.
We'll have them on radio as well, probably after I do this interview with Marco tomorrow.
I will tell you, we have been sitting here, you know, a couple of, in the last couple hours, watching President Trump.
It's going to be, it was his final cabinet meeting of the year.
And I mean, you talk about Trump being on his A-game.
I mean, when he's, he's asked a question by reporters, and he goes, you guys always find something new.
Oh, is he in good health?
Will you release your MRIs?
MRI is perfectly fine.
Nothing to hide.
But Biden was great.
Just listen to Trump and how he deals with this corrupt media.
And this is what he did.
You'd think they'd say, well, Trump said a great job in the border.
This country is being destroyed by the border, but you always find something new.
Like, is he in good health?
Biden was great, but is Trump in good health?
I sit here.
I do four news conferences a day.
I ask questions from very intelligent lunatics, you people.
I give the right answers.
There's never a scandal.
There's never a problem.
I give you answers that solve your little problems.
You go back and you can't find anything, but you do stories about Biden was in wonderful health.
The guy didn't do a news conference for eight months.
If I go one day, I had one day where I didn't do a news conference.
There's something wrong with the president.
You people are crazy.
I'll let you know when there's something wrong.
There will be someday.
That's going to happen to all of us.
But right now, I think I'm sharper than I was 25 years ago, but who the hell does?
I mean, that is just quintessential classic Trump.
And it was an extremely informative press conference.
And, you know, a lot of economic updates, a lot of good economic news, some of which I do want to share with you, not the least of which Americans are seeing relief at the pump.
And by the way, it's not by accident that we're seeing this happen.
And the energy secretary, Chris Wright, said, this drop, which is now the average gasoline per gallon nationwide, even with California charging like five something a gallon because of their ridiculous taxes, it's now below $3 a gallon for gasoline.
I remember under a Biden paying over $4 a gallon.
Pissed me off.
Now, you say, well, Hannity, why would that piss you off?
You can afford it.
I know I should think differently because I know what it's like to have money, and I know what it was like to have no money, and I know what it was like to live paycheck to paycheck.
And believe it or not, that person that lived in that brain that had a hard time making rent every month and struggled and couldn't even go to like get a cheeseburger and made meatloaf for the week, that guy, and you say, yeah, blah, blah, blah, play the violin.
That's all true.
And there are people in my life that I can bring on the program that will confirm all of it.
When I talked about working at Blount Marina in Rhode Island, you know, some jackass didn't believe me.
And Linda called over to Blount Marine, which is still operating, and said, do you have any records that Sean Hannity worked here?
Yeah, Sean Hannity did work here.
Yeah, I worked there, you know, like two days, three days after I fell off a roof and busted my arm and dislocated it.
And thank God I had a friend that got me the job.
And then, you know, I was walking around holding my arm in place.
And then the foreman picked up that my arm was not exactly as functional as it should be.
And I begged the guy if he would not fire me, begged him.
I said, I got to keep this job.
I need the money.
And he is an old Irish guy, Mac was his name.
He was the foreman.
And he had that red face, you know, kind of that beer belly, cool guy.
Just like, ugh, you know, he's just furious, but the guy had a heart of gold.
And I said, I really need this job.
I got to pay my rent.
I just, I promise I'm a good worker.
I promise.
And he points to Mr. Blount's house.
Mr. Blount's house overlooked the shipyard.
And he said, you know, see that house?
That's Mr. Blount's house.
If he sees you walking around this yard holding up that arm the way you're holding it, I've got a problem.
He goes, you're going to work inside the hull of this ship for, I think, two weeks he gave me.
And then you better be able to work.
And the arm got good enough that I could work.
And I'll never forget that guy.
And he was so nice to me at a time where I needed a break.
And I'm very grateful to him.
Oh, but Hannity, you never worked there.
Yeah, I did.
Yes, I did.
Yes, I painted houses.
Yes, I tended bar.
Yes, I was a cook.
Yes, I was a dishwasher.
Yes, I was a paperboy, a busboy, bartender.
Matter of fact, you know what?
I want you to book, maybe for later this week, a friend of mine, Captain Howie.
You know Captain Howie.
Captain Howie is friends with the guy that hired me as a dishwasher at 12 and threw the apron at me when I was 13 and taught me how to be a cook.
And that's when I learned to make shrimp fadiablo and fettuccine Alfredo and shrimp scampy and broil steaks and burgers and fries.
I love it.
13 years old.
I probably, I'm not going to get him in trouble, the statute of limitations.
If they run out for Comey, they run out for him.
I was 12, 13.
I finished my shift and me and my friend, my friend was the busboy.
I was first the dishwasher, then the cook and dishwasher.
I didn't get off the hook.
I just had to stay longer.
And then we'd sit at the bar, sit at the bar, 12, 13 years old, and we drink St. Pauli girl beers.
I don't know why we like St. Pauli Girl.
I guess because they were the most expensive at the time.
And we'd drink beer and we'd have like two beers and we'd fly home on our bicycle like at three in the morning.
It was unbelievable.
I loved it.
My parents, they weren't awake.
They didn't care.
They thought they knew I was working.
They knew I was bringing home cash.
Gomez, my best friend from childhood, could never understand how I had wads of cash in my pocket ever since like sixth grade.
Because I don't get it, Hannity.
I'm like, it's called work.
So his father, who knew I loved his fried chicken, would make extra fried chicken for me.
And Gomez, he didn't give me the fried chicken his father gave me.
No, he sold it to me so he could buy Yodels and Twinkies and host his cupcakes in that crappy pizza in the cafeteria and give me the good chicken that his father made for him.
Unbelievable.
How did I get off on this rant?
I don't know.
I don't even have a clock here.
Well, we do have things to talk about, not the least of which is what's going on.
But there's one other thing I want to tell you.
Meant to get to this in more detail yesterday.
You know, all the talk about the economy, consumers, and I know we're not where we need to be.
And the president addressed that head on today.
But AP pointed out Adobe Analytics, which tracks e-commerce, U.S. consumers spent a record $11.8 billion online Friday, marketing a 9.1% jump from the last year, traffic piling up and setting a record.
Wow.
I guess maybe Americans are doing better than we thought.
But the president is sympathetic.
Listen, his policies of manufacturing, committed monies for manufacturing, energy dominance, the tax cuts he put in place, you know, it has not fully made it into the bloodstream of America's economy.
Shovels have to hit the ground.
Ribbon cuttings need to take place.
These manufacturing facilities, and Scott Besson talked about it today, they need to be built out, and then those jobs will be created, and we're all going to be better off.
And we're going to see, you know, hopefully the golden age come for every American.
I mean, my whole life story has been an undeserved life.
And for those of you that know me, you understand it's undeserved.
All true.
Guilty is charged.
We've all sinned and fallen short of God's glory.
Guilty, hand up.
By the way, Pete Hegseth said, we've only just begun striking the narco boats, putting narco-terrorists at the bottom of the ocean because they've been poisoning the American people.
Joe Biden treated it with kid gloves and cartels, you know, they approach it with take over the community, 20 million people, hundreds of thousands of Americans poisoned.
And President Trump says, no, we're taking the gloves off.
He added, U.S. commanders have his full backing of these actions.
They're trying to claim war crimes here for taking out terrorists that are killing Americans.
We'll always have the back of our commanders.
He noted that the strikes have been temporarily paused because it's hard to find drug boats in the waters now because they've been effective in response to the never-ending, oh, the latest, we got Trump now.
We got Trump now.
We'll continue.
We're in D.C.
I keep saying this, and I'm not going to stop.
It is such a discernible difference.
Linda, haven't you noticed a discernible difference here in D.C.?
Yeah, I haven't gotten mugged at all.
It's been great.
I love it.
I love walking.
Did you ever get mugged in the past?
Only three times in all in New York.
Okay, but not okay.
Not in DC, though.
We're in the yeah.
Okay, can you keep focused?
Can you dial in?
Would you like some coffee?
I like coffee a lot.
Okay, you need more.
I like extra one shot of espresso more than a bit.
Maybe a little bit of ADHD medicine might work for you.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
I'm not taking that garbage.
Oh, I know.
And I'm not asking you about the shot.
And I'm not telling you.
I don't need to.
Did you get your flu shot?
You trust the science.
Trust the science.
Did I ever give that advice on this program?
Nope.
I'm not a doctor.
Not a doctor.
I'm one to be one now.
All I recommend is monoclonal antibodies.
You can go.
No, I didn't recommend monoclonal antibodies.
What you did say you said the only thing that I heard that would work is monoclonal antibodies.
I said, if you get diagnosed, if you get a positive test for COVID, my only medical suggestion is to ask your doctor about monoclonal antibodies.
At that point, you have to.
That's what did I say?
Okay, you said get monoclonal antibodies.
I didn't say it.
I'm not going to get it with more words.
It's the same thing.
No, no, no, it's very different things.
I didn't say get it.
I said talk to your doctor about it.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Keep your plan.
When you go out and about in the world and you're in D.C. and you say, how you doing?
And, oh, my God, and all this other stuff.
Yeah.
You know, they say, oh, you must be from Texas.
And I work in Twalk Radio.
They say you must be from Texas.
And don't people just say it?
What?
Okay.
You are a health nut.
No, I'm not.
The stuff you drink every day is disgusting.
I don't have coffee today.
I do have apples.
Wait a minute.
What do you have today?
I have a coffee.
Coffee.
What do you drink?
Coffee.
I drink coffee.
I drink a cup of coffee.
Drink a cup of coffee.
I don't drink coffee.
It's not coffee.
Let me get your pipe and sweaters while we're at it.
Oh, my gosh.
What is wrong with you?
You've lost your mind.
I do have sad news.
This has happened again.
What?
Now, remember what happened this illegal got a driver's license in Washington State and in California.
And in my free state of Florida, three innocent people died.
And then we find out the guy couldn't read English.
We found out he couldn't read road signs.
Well, now we have, I'm reading the New York Post right in front of me.
An illegal alien truck driver, licensed by Gavin Newsom's California, killed a newlywed couple in a horrific crash.
This truck driver is now charged with killing this newlywed couple, horrific crash in Oregon.
An illegal immigrant granted a commercial driver's license in the United Socialist Utopia of Gavin Newsom's California, according to the feds.
Now, if you read liberals, apparently yesterday, Hollywood is stepping up to the plate.
They're going all in on donating to Gavin, Gavin, and Gavin.
By the way, I've watched this movie before.
Just because you get the early money and you become the early frontrunner doesn't mean you end up being the candidate.
But I'd say he's probably, as of today, you know, more than three, well, three years away.
He's probably the odds on favorite, I would argue, to be the Democratic nominee.
You know how we could stop it?
How?
We could hold him accountable for all the licenses he gave out.
That's true.
Well, here's the story.
An Indian national, Rajinder Kumar, 32, arrested after he jackknifed his semi-truck, collided with a vehicle.
This is in Bend back in November, killing William Carter, his new wife, Jennifer Lower is her name.
And he was in the U.S. illegally, having been released into the country by the Biden administration.
What have I been saying?
They have blood on their hands.
Remember the same Democratic Party joint session speech, Donald Trump, and remember he was trying to honor Lake and Riley's family, you know, Georgia jogger, nursing student, you know, whole life ahead of her, you know, brutally murdered, broken family.
I mean, I mean, the family, how do you ever recover from that?
You don't.
I don't think I could.
I think I'm a strong individual, but I think this, you know, I've been talking, for example, you know, Andy, the National Guard, 24 years old.
I've been talking to his mother every day.
And by the way, she's thanking, wants me to thank all of you for the prayers you're giving for her son.
We had progress yesterday, but it's still tenuous.
I mean, he's clinging to life.
We lost this 20-year-old National Guardswoman, both are from West Virginia, her whole life ahead of her.
But remember, they wouldn't stand for the family of Lake and Riley.
They wouldn't stand for the family of Jocelyn Nungari.
She's a, what, 12-year-old girl brutally raped in Texas and dumped in a river.
Under a bridge.
Under a bridge.
I wish that was your daughter.
Do you care?
Imagine.
Anyway, this guy's in the country illegally, released into the country by the Biden administration.
What have I been saying?
They have blood on their hands.
I say it over and over and over again.
What are we learning about the Afghan national that shot these two National Guards people?
They're in the country.
And they told us over and over again.
I played it all day yesterday.
I won't go back and replay it today.
That, oh, no, no, they're in the country.
They're perfectly fine.
No, they're not.
No, they were not vetted.
Alohondor Mayorkas.
We take great pride in this program.
You know, I played an exchange last night.
Lindsey Graham, asking Mayorkis.
You're telling me before you put them on those planes that these people were vetted.
I am telling, wouldn't answer the question because the answer would have been a lie.
That's why he didn't answer the question.
Anyway, back to this issue.
This illegal issued a commercial driver's license in California, given work authorization in 2023, according to the feds.
And he's just the latest illegal immigrant to be nabbed over a fatal wreck after being cut loose by the Biden administration, according to immigration officials.
This guy, a criminal, illegal alien from India, released into our country under the Biden administration, issued a commercial driver's license in California by the Department of Motor Vehicles there, according to DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin.
Quote: How many more senseless tragedies must take place before sanctuary politicians stop allowing illegal aliens to dangerously operate semi-trucks on American roads?
This is what I keep saying.
Now, is this what the, you know, people are getting upset with Donald Trump because Donald Trump closed the border.
Donald Trump now is stopping immigration into this country from countries that have known terror ties.
Here's what's happened.
They have allowed this situation to spiral so out of control in the Biden years, and we were lied to spectacularly.
You know, borders closed, border secure.
How many times have I played that for you?
Maybe too many.
Maybe you could say I'm repetitive, but it is so deeply profound.
It is so impactful.
I know I say it a lot.
Not a matter of if, but it's a matter of when.
Well, I've been proven right again.
And every time an innocent American dies, they have more blood on their hands.
And we know we have known terrorists in the country.
I went through the numbers yesterday.
You know, over 76,000.
They knew many of them were national security arrests.
They knew many of them had troubling associations.
They let them in anyway.
And they're still here.
We have people from over 200 countries in the Biden years that crossed our borders all illegally in our country.
They are here.
And states like California, free education for their kids, free Medi-Cal.
No wonder.
California has the highest income taxes, highest sales taxes, highest gas taxes, and they're running massive multi-billion dollar deficits in large part because they pay for all the health care for illegal immigrants.
It's bankrupting states.
It's bankrupting the country.
You know, is any liberal network going to talk about this on their shows?
No, I doubt it.
MSDNC, I doubt it.
Or the people, these National Guards families, I'm talking to the mom of this one National Guardsman clinging to life every single day who's asking me to ask all of you to pray for her son and pray for her family.
She was going to come on TV last night.
She just, at 8.35, she just wrote me and said, I'm just, I can't do it.
I'm not feeling up to it.
I said, please don't, don't do it.
I totally understand.
I don't want to put extra pressure on that family.
The family's been through hell and back.
And all I want to offer her is prayer and comfort and support.
But it's just sad.
You know, and now the president is trying to clean up this mess.
What were we told about the Afghan nationals?
What I've been talking about for the whole show so far today.
We were told, oh, no, no, they've been vetted.
No, they weren't vetted.
They were not vetted.
We have all the numbers to back up that they were not vetted.
Now Trump has ordered ICE agents to deploy to Minnesota after reports that the state's taxpayer cash was funneled to Somali terrorists.
This is in the New York Times.
Oh, the vast right-wing conspiracy is now extended to the New York Times.
No, it hasn't.
Let me read from the New York Times.
The Trump administration launching an intensive immigration enforcement operation, primarily targeting hundreds of undocumented Somali immigrants in the Minneapolis-St. Paul region, according to an official with knowledge of the operation and documents obtained by the New York Times.
So they are trying to make this a race issue, but listen on more.
White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt said that Somalis in Minneapolis had ripped off American taxpayers, citing a New York Times report on an investigation into fraud that had taken place in pockets of where the Somali population is in Minnesota.
The directive for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Operation focuses largely on Somalis with final deportation orders who are living in the Twin Cities, though the official said that others are still seeking legal status that can be swept up as well.
The officials spoke, of course, on the condition of anonymity to describe the ongoing operation.
The plan calls for the deployment of so-called strike teams, which are made of ICE officers, agents, other federal officials.
Now, by the way, they're all risking their lives.
They're all being doxxed.
They're all being told They can't wear masks in California if Gavin had his way out there.
But of course, his security team, they can wear all the masks that they want and hide their identity.
Why do they want to unmask ICE agents?
You don't think that the rhetoric is insightful, dehumanizing?
Let's see, Gestapo, Nazis, brown shirts, fascists.
You don't think it has a cumulative effect on people's psyche, especially people that are teetering on the edge of madness?
In other words, a lot of the people that you read online, that have nothing to do all day but live in their parents' basement and with great anonymity in their underwear, perhaps naked, I have no idea, can slash and burn all over the internet all that they want.
Anyway, this plan now calls for the deployment of so-called strike teams made up of ICE officers, agents, other federal officials, and all of them are putting their life at risk.
You know, D.C.'s homicide rate went down 70%, as I said.
Why?
Because Donald Trump believes in law and order, safety, security.
Democrats don't believe in any of this.
It's unbelievable.
