Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, we have been warning repeatedly on this program all throughout the Biden years that unvetted, you know, Biden-Harris, Mayorka's illegals, you know, from over 200 countries.
Many of these countries with no one territize.
We're talking about Iran and Egypt and Syria and Afghanistan.
You know, look at what Tulsi Gabbard told us last week.
You know, 2,000 suspected, you know, people that Biden let in from Afghanistan were terror ties.
And, you know, this, you know, put your head in the sand mentality, coupled with this growing virulent anti-Semitism, is a formula for an unmitigated disaster.
I have said repeatedly, it's not if, it's when this country is going to be attacked again.
You know, what do we see?
Three Americans killed in Syria, five radicals arrested for plotting a massacre at a Christmas market in Germany, Paris canceling their, basically their entire biggest Christmas pageant of the year because of the rise of radical Islamist in Paris.
And then you have the Zonika party in Australia.
And as I went over in great specificity and detail in the last hour, every warning sign for Australia was there.
It was ignored.
We have talked at length over the years about how Europe, you know, the Islamization, if you will, of Europe has gone on unabated and for fear of being discriminatory.
And what has it resulted in?
No-go zones that are very real.
We've reported on those over the years.
If you look at Great, how did Great Britain ever get to the point where they have 60, 70, whatever the number is, Sharia courts in Great Britain?
All the signs, evidence missed in Australia.
It is breathtaking.
And here's my fear, is the same mistakes have been made in this country.
What do you think people would, you know, why were people coming from Iran and Syria and Egypt and other countries that have terrorized into this country?
Why would they make a trek during the Biden years all the way to our southern border?
Is it because they want a better life for themselves or their family?
Among them are the odds high that you have people that have been radicalized and that are in our country?
And what do you think they're doing?
Are they not plotting, planning, scheming an attack on our homeland?
I pray to God that I'm wrong.
I don't think that I am.
And the world now is finding itself.
There is a battle of civilizations.
What does that mean?
I mean, if you want to come to America, you've got to want to be an American and assimilate into American culture and society.
If you have a mindset that has been radicalized, you know, that is convert or die, and you're in this country, your whole purpose is to change the entire culture of the country, or be it any Western European country, where things, if you want a preview of coming attractions, take a look at Europe.
Take a look at what's been happening in Australia.
Take a look at what's happening in other parts of the world.
Anyway, joining us now, Senator Mark Wayne Mullen of Oklahoma is with us.
We see the rise of anti-Semitism, even in the halls of Congress where you work, the rise of anti-Semitism, you know, in the punditry class.
It's, you know, it's out of control, and it really is getting chilling and frightening.
And the result to me now is predictable.
Yeah, Sean, you know, people have to wake up and realize that Muslim isn't a form of heritage.
A Muslim is a faith.
Arab is a race.
Muslim is a faith.
And when you believe in the Muslim faith, you believe in the Quran.
If you believe in the Quran, then the Quran isn't just a religious book.
It's also a form of government.
And that form of government outweighs any other form of government that you live under because you are sworn to the Quran.
And that takes precedence over everything else.
And so when you're living in the United States or you're living in another country, throughout Europe or throughout the world, the Quran becomes your first base before everything else.
Everything else is second to the Quran.
So you're loyal to the Quran.
And when you see anti-Semitism rising throughout the world, rising throughout the country of the United States, rising throughout our campuses, rising throughout our towns and throughout our cities, it's rising throughout the halls of Congress.
I want you to understand every time that does is we have a heavy influence of the Muslim religion.
And I'm not trying to just come after the individuals.
I'm pointing out facts behind it.
I've got some really good friends that are Muslims, but there's the extreme version of this that the Quran is everything to them and they cannot get away from it.
You see Omar, who has come to this country that should be thankful for the country that has saved her and her family, that gave her the opportunity.
You know, it's kind of gross to say, but gave her the opportunity to bring her family over, even if they were married to her to begin with.
That's a whole other story, but gave her the opportunity to walk away from something and become something that she could have never, ever, ever achieved in Somalia.
And she brings it here.
Well, I'm totally agreeing with you, and I've made this point and distinction in the last hour.
There is a difference between Islam and radical Islamists.
I mean, the hero in Australia happened to be a Muslim shopkeeper who disarmed the shooter and saved God only knows how many countless lives and got shot himself as a result of it.
But then there's this rising element.
Look at, for example, what has happened in Israel.
I will never understand this for the life of me.
Now, we had three Americans killed in Syria, and Donald Trump is, I'm telling you, he is going to act militarily, find these radical Islamists, ISIS camps, and he's going to, you know, obliterate them.
He's going to send a loud message that's not going to be acceptable worldwide.
If you look at the Trump doctrine, which I fully support, yeah, no forever war.
I don't want to go back to the days of what we were doing in Baghdad and going door to door and stepping over IEDs, our national treasure, and not having up-armored Humvees, for example.
We can't go back to those days.
Fair enough.
But if you look at the president's military actions, mother of all bombs dropped in Afghanistan in his first term.
Soleimani knocked out in his first term.
Baghdadi and associates knocked out in his first term.
And then culminating with taking out Iran's nuclear sites, which even some conservatives did not want this president to do for the life of me, I don't know why.
Israel has hundreds of thousands of rockets fired into their country.
Well, what would we want our president to do if one rocket was fired into an American town or city?
Never mind hundreds of thousands, culminating in October 7th, 23, you know, which is which for their population, which is under 10 million, would be the equivalent of 40,000 dead Americans in a day.
What part of 9-11 have people forgotten, Senator?
That's right.
And you're absolutely correct when the president is going to respond to this ISIS attack that killed the two service members.
Keep in mind, the mother of all bombs were dropped, was dropped in 2017 after the captain of 19th Group was in the Kandahar region and was attacked.
He dropped the largest bomb since World War II to respond to that.
This will have a heavy response, and it should be.
And people are forgetting because we think we have to be tolerant to the Muslim faith, to the Muslim people, which is why, as I pointed out, that Arab is a race, Muslim is a faith.
But the extreme Islamic arm of this is what has radicalized individuals.
And if we don't think what has happened in other countries cannot happen here, then we're closing a blind eye to reality.
It is not just a peaceful religion.
The extreme side of the Islamic Muslim religion is the radical side that is willing to literally kill, steal, and destroy anything in their way.
And keep in mind when the Obama administration opened up the first wave to be able to come in to take refugees from Somalia and other parts around the world.
And then the Biden administration just literally opened the floodgates to the Middle East and invited all these individuals in.
There was no vetting, especially after Afghanistan.
Do you know that we have thousands, thousands of paramilitary individuals that came from Afghanistan that are currently inside the United States?
And this isn't, and I mean, I had the exact number.
I don't want to quite share it with you on air with you, but it is, and they were trained by the United States, but we've lost track of them.
After six months of bringing them here, we totally left them out on their own.
So for three years, they have been.
It was testimony last week that they have known or suspected terrorists, 18,000 of them at large in our country today.
I think that's on the low side.
I mean, they're talking about numbers that they can actually measure, but we don't know how many gotaways snuck across the border from, again, over 200 countries, many with terrorist ties, no vetting at all whatsoever, which is, you know, to me, it's a matter of time.
I pray to God I'm wrong, Senator.
I don't think I'm going to be wrong.
You're not wrong.
But it's not just vetting them once they get here.
It's what we do, the follow-up.
Once they get here, how do we know that they're not being leveraged?
Because once we vet them to let them in, what about their family that the al-Qaeda or ISIS could use to leverage them in ways that would re-radicalize the individual here inside the United States?
And so 18,000, by the way, are the ones we know of that we're currently tracking.
I think that reflects a very, very small number.
And so you're right.
It's not a matter of if.
It's unfortunately a matter of when.
We continue now with Senator Markway Mullen of Oklahoma talking about the economy, talking about, obviously, now on three separate continents, radical Islamists back at doing what they do regularly, and that is fomenting terror.
All right, let's look a little bit and make a pivot here to the economy.
I did see your post on X.
I had no idea gas prices went as high as they did in your state of Oklahoma.
You had an average of $4.66 a gallon.
And now, right now, as of today, it's under two bucks a gallon in the great state of Oklahoma because of Donald Trump's energy policies.
That's just the beginning.
Scott Besson has been very outspoken and telling people that Americans are going to feel big time, you know, major tax benefits and the beginning, you know, very large tax refunds next year and tax cuts that they will begin to feel no tax on tips overtime.
Social security, largest tax cut in history takes effect.
Democrats voted for the largest tax increase in history.
I know there's a lag time, but certainly I would imagine by the end of second quarter and the third quarter of next year that this economy is going to be humming.
I think you're going to fill it in the first two quarters.
And we've talked about this before, Sean.
Energy is the backbone of our economy.
You cannot produce a product or deliver a product without factoring the energy costs.
When energy costs is cut in half, that will have a little bit of lag time, but you'll immediately start seeing it in the first or second quarter.
What a lot of people aren't saying, though, is, yes, we have no tax on tips.
Yes, you have no tax on Social Security for 85% of the recipients, the higher income brackets that are receiving Social Security.
They won't receive a tax break.
But what you really need to see, pay attention to is the overtime.
What will happen with the overtime is it won't just the employee, but it affects the employer too, because when the employer isn't having to match those heavy FICA, which is our matching of our state, federal, our Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, the matches that we have to make on that, now it's going to be able to stay inside the local community.
And most business owners are going to reinvest that, which there hasn't been a lot of reinvestment dollars over the last four years of the Biden administration to be able to let your company grow, to be able to expand, to be able to buy the new products, to build invest and try things that you want to try.
So you're going to see that effect immediately because January 1st, when that no tax on overtime.
Right.
So let me ask you this.
What happens on health care?
Because Democrats, all they want to do is make, you know, the Affordable Care Act, I've said many times, every promise failed, every promise unfulfilled.
Then they put temporary subsidies in place.
The Affordable Care Act needs subsidies to be affordable.
We have about 15 seconds.
Well, the subsidy they're talking about is only 4% of 100% increase that they're talking about.
What's frustrating, though, is that they're saying that it's our fault, and Republicans are doing a horrible time, horrible job messaging it.
It has a 90% fraud rate, 90% fraud rate, according to the government accountability office.
That means that out of 100 applicants that apply fraudulent, only 10% get caught.
And what the Democrats' solution is is let's throw more money out of it, have no reforms, extend it for three years, and hopefully – Bad idea.
I mean, you're extending failure.
Another government shutdown in January?
I believe we could possibly get there.
If we don't do these five appropriation bills that we're fighting really hard to get on, you could see another government shutdown January 30th.
We're fighting it.
Hopefully it doesn't happen, but this is what the Democrats want.
Senator Marquay Mullen, thank you as always.
800-941-Sean, our number.
You want to be a part of the program?
Look, I don't know what else to say.
It is so many families out there have dealt with addiction issues.
And I can't tell you the number of people, the agony that it causes families and the pain that it causes families if somebody gets addicted, especially to hard drugs.
I know a lot of people on the left, they're against, oh, Donald Trump is taking on narco-terrorism.
Oh, Donald Trump is stopping these drugs from coming into our country.
Good.
That's part of it.
I guess on the other side of it, you know, there's the demand side of it, separate and apart.
But you know that these cartels are making hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars killing Americans.
You know, the latest we have is, you know, this tragedy.
Apparently, Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle, you know, had their throats slashed.
Right now, their son, Nick, has been charged with murder after, you know, what has been, you know, sounds like the most hideous stabbing and slashing that could ever take place.
Now, apparently, this young man spent years, according to reports, New York Post, People Magazine, TMZ, spent years and years in and out of rehab and also homeless for a significant period of time.
He's in custody right now, being held on $4 million bail.
But Rob Reiner, I hated his politics, but that has nothing to do with it.
A human tragedy is a human tragedy.
And I guess he's been homeless because at some point, you know, there does come a point where, and I've had these discussions with parents that have had to make this difficult decision to say to their addicted son or addicted daughter, I'm not helping you until you help yourself.
And apparently he went through periods of homelessness around the globe.
And now there's a report on TMZ that just came out as we were coming on the air today that was somewhat troubling.
Apparently, there was some type of conflict that took place.
Again, according to TMZ, at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party, apparently Rob Reiner, his wife, Michelle, their son, attended this party.
At the party, Rob and Nick got into a very loud argument, loud enough for others to hear it.
Reiner family sources telling TMZ, we told Rob and Michelle then left the party.
We don't know if Nick left as well, but he is the prime suspect, at least as of this moment.
But it's just sad to me.
And this gets to the issue of addiction.
And it also gets to the issue of, there's a lot of issues that come up here.
I don't like the fact that you have people in this country, drug dealers, cartel members in this country, that for $10 will not blink an eye if they kill your children.
I don't know if you've ever seen, like on Nat Geo, they follow these drug dealers and the things that they say, for $10, they don't have no problem taking a life.
None at all.
They purposely put fentanyl inside of the drugs that they're selling to make them more powerful.
You know, in the drug world, I guess that is viewed as a hot shot.
And then the stronger the drug is deemed on the street, the more value it has.
It's crazy.
It's an insane world.
But the cartels that are bringing all of this fentanyl and manufacturing and the ingredients coming and the president's dealt with China.
Now he's dealing with Venezuela on the issue.
And we have young people, our national treasure, dying as a result of it all.
It just is horrible.
Did you see all this, Linda?
You've been following this?
I saw it last night.
I couldn't.
I have.
It's, you know, I think the sad part is, first of all, whenever anything's happening around the holidays, it just stinks because you lost a loved one at that holiday.
And I feel like your holiday is forever scarred by that, whatever it is.
Second of all, you know, the industrial complex of rehab is a real thing.
They get you just well enough, and then they let you out.
And then you come back.
It's like a terrible boomerang.
And everybody that I talk to and everybody that I know that has been through rehab and serious rehab, heroin and fentanyl and ketamine and PCP, like stuff that just literally alters your brain, where when you come back to who you were before you started drugs, you don't even remember all the things you did.
And people are like, yeah, I have pictures of you.
I have video of you.
They're like, I can't even believe I was there.
And at no point.
At the end of the day, the addict themselves has to decide enough is enough.
When do they hit rock bottom?
When do they say, I don't want to live this life?
But you've got to dig them out.
They're so buried underneath that drug.
It is insane.
And anybody who's ever dealt with a loved one, your child, your uncle, your husband, your father, your mother, whatever it is, trying to get them to the place where they're like, they look in your eyes and you're like, oh my God, you're there.
It takes forever.
I mean, it really, it's a heartbreak.
And I feel very sad for that whole family.
I feel sad for any family going through this.
We have done events that we don't really talk about, but we've done events with families that have had addicted children or children that they lost as a result of this addiction.
And, you know, looking into these parents' eyes, I don't think you ever, I don't think you're ever the same again.
I don't think you ever have peace in your life if you know that your child is addicted to any substance.
I don't think you can have peace.
Yeah, it's terrible.
JD, but I guarantee you, there's not one person listening to the show today, not one, that has not had to deal with addiction on some level.
A friend, a relative, a neighbor, a co-worker's kid.
Everybody knows somebody.
Everybody.
Most people have dealt with it directly.
JD, Vegas, K-Dawn Radio on the Sean Hennedy Show.
Hi.
Hi, Sean.
Thanks for the time.
I go back to 2000 with you when we had the concert in San Diego with Mark Levin when his first book, Men in Black.
And you're a great American.
I am.
Thanks for staying with us.
What's on your mind in Vegas today?
By the way, another addiction you got to watch out for is gambling.
Gambling is out of control.
I mean, you can't watch a game these days without being prompted to bet.
And one thing about these betting sites, and I'm just going off on a tangent.
I won't take your time.
One thing about those betting sites, they create an algorithm on every individual that uses them.
And then if and they figure out what you like to bet on, and then they ping you with a text or a notification, oh, you might want to pay attention to this game.
And if you do, we'll give you 25 extra dollars if you win.
And they're constantly tempting those people that have an inclination towards gambling to gamble more.
And I can tell you that, you know, people lose in their homes.
People end up committing suicide because they lost all their money.
I mean, gambling may become the worst addiction of them all.
Sean, I've lived here for 49 years.
As soon as I get even, I'm leaving.
You're never getting even.
There's a really cool book that I got from Steve Wynn on the history of Las Vegas.
It's like a $200 or $500 book.
It's like a tabletop book.
The first line in the book is quoting Steve Wynn.
The only one that gets rich at a casino is the casino owner.
Yeah, they don't build these hotels on winters.
Sean, the reason I'm calling, I'm so frustrated with these military Democrat veterans like Jack Reed from Rhode Island, an Army Ranger Kelly from Arizona, others, Seth Moulton, the Marine from Massachusetts, others in the House.
Do these people and the media not have any regulation recollection of history of American presidents' actions like JFK embargoing Cuba surrounding it, LBJ with the biggest lie a president ever made, the Gulf of Tonkin airstrike that never happened that allowed him to send 500,000 boys to Vietnam.
58,000 of them got back home in body bags.
If there was ever a need for impeachment, it was JFK.
Then you had Nixon with Operation Linebacker bombing in Cambodia.
Then you had Ronald Reagan going into Grenada to free our college students from the Cuban rebels.
You had George H. Walker Bush taking out Panama's leader because of drugs.
And then you had Reagan bombing Gaddafi.
And then you had Clinton bombing pharmaceutical plants during the Monica thing.
But the Kudi, the creme de la creme, Obama had 528 drone strikes in the Middle East, killing American citizens without due process, including children.
I did not hear one media outlet or one Democrat, especially Democrat ex-military, who should be familiar with everything I say, say that was a murder.
That was a war crime.
What they're trying to do to Trump and Hagsett is obscene, Sean.
Well, you went through a great history of it.
We have more details.
Every example, every modern-day president has done the same thing.
And you're right.
The double standard is as obvious as the nose on your face.
But do you expect anything different?
This is why this midterm is going to mean next year everything to the presidency of Donald J. Trump.
Everything.
It's unavoidable.
The media, these politicians, if I'm a Republican congressman or senator, every time somebody sticks a microphone in front of me, I'm going to say exactly what I just said to you, to that reporter, until it gets across to the American people.
And by the way, I just wanted to say thank you for everything you've done.
Not Sean, but Mark Levin was talking about Rush Limbaugh a couple of days ago, and it brought back great memories.
We'd love to have his insight.
My friends and I talk about him on what's going on.
May I make a bold suggestion to you and Mark Levin?
Yeah, go ahead.
Write a book about your interactions with Rush Limbaugh, the both of you.
You don't have to have a lot of pages, but I guarantee you, if you put out the word for anybody that had a funny story, that had contact with him, political leaders, people on the street, and have them send you a page.
You have a thousand-page book on Rush Limbaugh and interactions that he's had around the country with people.
And I think it would be a monumental way to honor Rush.
And I think you and Malevin are, I've got all of your books.
I'll tell you what you'll like.
If you go to Fox Nation, they have a series.
I'm a commentator on it, The Era of Rush.
And, you know, when Rush passed away, you know, I said nobody can replace him.
Don't expect anybody to be able to replace him.
But I do know what Rush would want.
He would want us all to stay in the fight.
And Rush would be approaching this midterm election year with every ounce of passion he could muster to keep the country on track.
So, you know, there's just nobody else like him.
Never will be.
He was a true original.
Anyway, my friend, I do appreciate your call.
God bless you.
Great idea.
All right, quick break right back to our phones.
800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.
Final hour roundup is next.
You do not want to miss it.
And stay tuned for the final hour free-for-all on the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, let's get back to our busy phones.
800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, let's go to, let's say hi to Don on Lake Ron Concomo.
Welcome aboard, sir.
Hi.
Sean, you know, it's at the end of this year, you know, end of the year.
Always like to call in and wish you Merry Christmas and thank you for everything you've done all year and keeping us informed.
However, the news this weekend has been horrific between the Brown University shooting and what we heard about the Australian targeting Jews as they were celebrating the first night of Hanukkah.
It looks like the attackers were Islamic fanatics.
Look what's happening in Paris.
They had to cancel their big Christmas festival because of the rise of radical extremism and violence.
Look at Germany, what's happening there.
Look at what's happening, the rise of anti-Semitism in this country.
It's all scary.
Yep, they invited a lot of it in, but a lot of the, it could be centered around our universities where a lot of this anti-Semitism has been located.
And it's repulsive, and it's also border.
All the anti-Semitism I hear out there, I don't care if it's on college campuses, I don't care the halls of Congress.
I don't care, you know, some idiot with a microphone that thinks they're smart, wherever it's coming from, it is based in ignorance.
If America got hit with as many rockets as Israel got hit with and 40,000 Americans extrapolated out population artists versus Israel in a day, trust me, we would want our government to obliterate whoever did it.
And three Americans lost in Syria.
Those Syrian ISIS camps are going to be obliterated.
There's my prediction.
Don, we love you.
Have a happy new year.
Have a Merry Christmas.
God bless you, my friend.
