From coast to coast, from

border to border, from

0:08

sea to shining Sea.

0:10

Sean Kennedy is.

0:13

On Stay

0:16

right here for our final news round up

0:18

and information overload.

0:20

All right, New's round up and information overload

0:22

hour. Here's our toll free number. It is eight hundred

0:24

and ninety four one, Sean, if you want to be a part of the

0:26

program. We are in Des Moines.

0:28

We are in Iowa, where with the wind show

0:31

it is close to twenty degrees below

0:33

zero. We did attempt to send Linda out from

0:35

a woman on the street, man on the street

0:37

interview, and I

0:40

heard it didn't go very well because nobody was on

0:42

the street. There was nobody.

0:44

There was nobody, nobody. The one

0:46

guy you met it hasn't voted since how

0:49

long forty four years? Amazing,

0:51

Yes, So we sent sweet baby James out

0:53

and he couldn't find anybody either, bundled up

0:56

and we couldn't even recognize him. He looked like the

0:58

abominable snowman. What

1:00

do they call it? The yeah about the

1:02

about I can't say that word, by the way, More

1:05

in doubt actually wrote the column and that was the

1:07

title of ver Yeah. But

1:09

of course it was hating Trump anyway,

1:12

eight hundred one sewn. Uh,

1:14

well on full coverage tonight now eight

1:16

o'clock Eastern is when

1:18

the caucus begins and when

1:21

I get on the air by nine, we're going to be very close

1:23

to knowing who the winners are. And

1:25

you know, there's certain things to look for. As I've

1:27

been saying all afternoon, Uh, what

1:30

is the margin that Donald Trump wins by? I

1:33

think I think it is seen if people

1:35

think that, you know, he's he's

1:37

going to win by the last poll had him up by twenty

1:39

eight points.

1:40

Uh.

1:41

Second place is going to be interesting, Uh

1:44

in this more in the more recent polling,

1:46

Nicky Haley has edged out

1:48

Ron de Santis, although DeSantis's

1:52

organization I think is second to none here

1:54

besides Trump. And so we'll see

1:56

what happens in second place. And

1:58

then it's you know, often New I am sure, and

2:01

Nevada, South Carolina Super Tuesday,

2:03

you know, is this game day we all begin. I've

2:07

taken note of a

2:10

really a rising star in my mind

2:12

within conservative ranks and the

2:14

Republican Party ranks out

2:17

of North Carolina. That's the Lieutenant Governor

2:19

Mark Robinson. And he's going

2:22

to join us in a second and let me

2:24

just play a cut of him saying that African

2:26

American voters are tired of being used

2:28

as pawns by the Democrat Party.

2:31

And quite frankly, black folks

2:33

are just not falling for it anymore. Every

2:36

two years, every four years, every

2:38

six years, these elected officials

2:40

come around and make promise the moon

2:42

and the stars and pander all day long.

2:45

And then once they're elected, what do they

2:47

deliver? Defunding the police, more

2:49

economic doldrums, more crime,

2:52

more poverty. They don't

2:54

deliver any of the promises that they make,

2:56

They don't keep any of their promises. In

2:58

fact, they are moving us backwards

3:00

in time. They are moving us downward

3:02

in prosperity, and Black folks are seeing

3:05

it, and then they're not falling for it anymore. They're

3:07

tired of being used as political

3:09

polls. And Joe Biden has been

3:11

the king of this and his sorry administration

3:14

has affected black communities all across

3:16

these nations, all across this nation, and

3:18

folks are not falling for it anymore.

3:20

The polls are showing, I mean these I

3:22

mentioned at the top of the show today. The polls

3:25

for Joe Biden are just devastating.

3:27

And when you break it down demographically. First

3:29

of all, he only is a thirty three percent approval

3:31

rating and the lowest

3:33

ever of any president in the

3:35

modern era. Only thirty

3:38

one percent of women now supporting Joe

3:40

Biden. He had fifty seven percent of

3:42

women voters in twenty twenty. At

3:44

twenty eight percent approval among independents,

3:48

you can't win. If these numbers

3:50

hold throughout this year, he cannot win. That's

3:52

why I believe if these polls

3:55

continue, there's going to be a move to get him off the

3:57

ticket because they really have

3:59

no choice. And anyway,

4:01

forty one percent among college graduates,

4:03

that's ten percent off among

4:05

African Americans has been pole after

4:07

poll after pole. His

4:09

approval rating now down twenty one points

4:12

with Black Americans, down

4:15

nearly twenty points with Hispanic Americans,

4:18

and it's it's pretty unbelievable.

4:21

I mean, it's it is a precipitous decline.

4:23

Now, if you listen to the likes

4:25

of Democratic Operatives, they're

4:27

pretty smart people. I talked about this on America's

4:30

Newsroom today with Bill Hemmer and Danan

4:32

Prino. I said, you know, when you

4:34

have gotten the likes of James

4:36

Carvel, David Axelrod, Van

4:38

Jones, mare En Doubt at the New York

4:41

Times. Those are prominent, influential

4:43

Democratic voices. What they

4:45

say matters, and when they keep repeating

4:47

it, like in the case of Axelrod, it's

4:50

having an impact. And the question

4:53

is will the you know, apparatic

4:55

if you will in the Democratic Party stay with Biden.

4:59

I think it's an open question. Now anyway, joining us,

5:01

our friend, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson

5:04

is back, sir, how are you, By the way, how's

5:06

North Carolina?

5:08

North Carolina's good. I'm fine and we

5:10

hope that you are.

5:12

And by the way, he's also the author of the book We

5:14

Are the Majority, The Life and Passions

5:16

of a Patriot is running

5:18

for governor for the state of North Carolina. Look,

5:22

I liked you from the first day I heard

5:24

you. I liked you from the first time I

5:26

interviewed you, and I listened

5:29

to you. And what you are saying

5:31

is one hundred percent true. I have observed

5:33

this all the years I've been on radio and television,

5:36

and every two years, every four years,

5:38

Democrats they go into minority

5:41

communities, you know, they pushed

5:43

the vote. They play the race card, which

5:46

drives me insane. Because if

5:48

any Conservative is racist

5:51

or any Republican is racist, I

5:54

don't want anything to do with those people.

5:56

They are dumb, they are ignorant,

5:58

They're mean spirited, hateful people.

6:01

I don't like racist people. I didn't

6:03

like that Joe Biden partnered with a former klansman

6:05

to stop the integration of public schools

6:07

because he didn't want quote, public schools

6:10

to become racial jungles, that's what he said.

6:13

But it happens. And sure

6:15

enough, you think this is going to be the year where

6:17

maybe things change, and then

6:20

comes voting time at the

6:23

demographics don't seem to shift much.

6:25

Why is that?

6:26

Well, I think that we we really got

6:28

to take a look at the candidates that the Republican

6:31

Party runs. You know, we love to think

6:33

that we live in a society where the color someone's

6:35

skin doesn't matter, but it still does

6:38

to a large degree. And when you start

6:40

to see folks like me who grew up in

6:42

some of these in the black

6:44

community, who understand the

6:46

struggles that folks face on

6:48

a day to day basis, When when

6:50

folks look at the television and see

6:53

someone saying the things that they think,

6:57

it starts to put that spark in to say,

6:59

hey, I'm not alone in this. I'm not

7:01

alone in my thinking. I know when my friends and

7:03

I are sitting around, they're all talking about vote for Joe

7:05

Biden and vote for some Democrats Liberal. But

7:08

in my mind, in my heart, I feel

7:10

these things that this guy's talking about. So

7:13

I think we're going to see a lot of that change because we're

7:15

seeing a lot of different candidates on the slates.

7:17

We're seeing a lot of women, We're seeing a lot of

7:19

minorities, and consequently,

7:22

I mean coincidentally, those are the

7:24

people the Democrat Party used as polls

7:27

to push their agendas.

7:28

Yeah.

7:28

Well, I mean, let's examine

7:31

what the facts are if you go into predominantly

7:33

minority neighborhoods in America. I'll

7:37

look at big states and big cities New York,

7:39

Chicago, New Jersey, Los

7:42

Angeles, San Francisco. When you go

7:44

into these communities, I tell

7:47

people, I ask them, well, how is your school system

7:49

compared to the rest of the state, How is

7:51

law and order compared to the rest of the of the

7:53

state. You know, what has

7:55

the Democratic Party delivered on that

7:58

makes you? You know, at generally

8:00

speaking, demographically speaking, because every

8:02

poll is broken down by demographics. What

8:05

compels people to continue to buy

8:07

the line every two and four years and then

8:10

they're never to be seen or heard from again until

8:12

they want their vote again.

8:14

Absolutely, it's a great question. It's one

8:16

of one of the big questions here in North Carolina.

8:18

But you talk about education, one of the big

8:20

questions is freedom of charge for parents.

8:23

Who does that affect more than anybody, That

8:25

affects those poor families that are caught

8:27

those failing schools in those poor

8:29

neighborhoods. When those folks are able to

8:32

take their children out of those failing schools

8:34

and put them into successful schools, when

8:36

they can get those vouchers, when they can get

8:39

those stiphens to get their

8:41

kids a proper education, it not only changes

8:43

the trajectory of that child, we

8:46

see that changing the trajectory

8:48

of the family and the community at large.

8:50

But who is it wants to stand it in the way of

8:52

that Who wants to take that away? It's democrats,

8:55

the same ones that they say care so much about

8:57

the people in the community, don't want to give

8:59

them the freedom of choice to expand on

9:02

their children's educational opportunities.

9:04

It's like it really like an episode of Twilight

9:06

Going Sean. You couldn't write these

9:09

things and have people believe them, but they're true.

9:11

The very people who say they care so much

9:13

are the ones who want to take away folk rights,

9:16

take away folk ability to be

9:18

able to take care of themselves, and take away

9:20

their choices.

9:21

Let me ask you, because in

9:23

recent years, North Carolina has

9:25

become a tougher state for

9:27

Republicans to win nationally, and

9:31

the same with the state of Georgia. That that

9:33

alarms me because those are two must

9:36

have states if Republicans

9:38

want to win the presidency. And

9:41

I'm not sure why it's happened. I

9:44

know that the relationship between Trump

9:46

and Camp and Georgia's not help things

9:48

there. I would

9:50

hope maybe that relationship could be repaired.

9:52

I tend to think it won't be. But you

9:54

know, why is it now we really have to

9:56

pay attention to North Carolina. What's happened?

10:00

Well? North Carolina did quite well in the last

10:02

Senate race. We did quite well Ted

10:05

budd Out. He was out

10:07

raised three to one in dollars,

10:09

but he won that race handily against

10:11

a strong Democratic challenger.

10:14

North Carolina has been called a purple

10:17

state, but if you look at the political

10:19

makeup of North Carolina. North Carolina is a red

10:21

state. We have a supermajority in

10:23

our legislature that is conservative

10:26

and has done great things since twenty

10:28

ten. The Republican

10:31

Party has reversed the fortunes of North

10:33

Carolina since twenty ten. At

10:35

one point, we were three point four billion dollars

10:37

in debt to the federal government. Now we find

10:39

ourselves thirteen years later, only not in debt

10:41

to the federal government. We have a five billion dollar surplus,

10:44

and we're the number one business destination two years

10:46

running. So North Carolina is not really

10:48

a purple state. North Carolina is in red state.

10:51

The problem is, I think what we've run

10:53

into in this state. The chief problem is

10:56

the governor's race. We've been

10:58

settled with a Democrat governor for

11:00

for going on eight years in this state

11:02

that's done nothing but obstruct Our

11:04

legislature has had to override him nineteen

11:06

times on some great legislature. And

11:09

if we can fill that seat, and fill our attorney

11:11

general seats, and keep our courts and keep our legislatures,

11:14

you're going to see North Carolina doing great things.

11:17

They're going to do it with conservative policies that have

11:19

great principles.

11:20

Oh, we know that those policies work. A

11:22

quick break right back more with Lieutenant Governor

11:24

Mark Robinson of North Carolina, rising

11:27

star in the Republican Party now running for governor.

11:30

We'll get to your calls on the other side of this half hour

11:32

toll free. It's eight hundred and ninety four one seawan

11:34

if you want to be a part of the program as we continue.

11:37

Look, if you don't have a safety

11:39

and security plan for you and your family,

11:41

for your employees, your business, you need

11:43

one. It is a year round priority, especially

11:46

with you know, violent crime and the age of

11:49

defund dismantle, no bail

11:51

laws, reimagining the police.

11:53

It's not working. And I've

11:55

always been a big supporter, as all of you know, of

11:58

the Second Amendment. I've always had a license to carry,

12:00

but I love the technology that

12:03

is Burner, which is non lethal

12:05

force that can stop perpetrators.

12:07

And it gives me an option short

12:10

of the one option, and

12:13

and it's become a very big part of my own personal

12:15

security strategies. And when you're

12:17

looking to protect your family, your business,

12:19

your and your employees, Burner

12:22

is the answer. And I can tell you if you go to

12:24

their website, b y r na

12:26

dot com slash Hannity. Just take a

12:28

look at how powerful you

12:30

know this non lethal option is,

12:33

and you know and if you're if you practice

12:36

and you become you know, proficient

12:38

in the use of it, which is fairly easy. I'm

12:40

going to tell you it will provide you the ability

12:43

to you know, protect you and your family,

12:45

you and your employees from any perpetrator.

12:48

It incapacitates them instantaneously

12:51

once once the person is struck with a Burner

12:53

projectile, it releases

12:55

two pepper sprays and tear gas

12:58

and stops them right in their tracks, which gives

13:00

you time to get away, get your family away, get your

13:02

employees away, call for help, and

13:06

stay safe. Anyway, go to their website,

13:08

check out their videos. See if you are not as blown

13:10

away as I am. I own many of them.

13:12

I give, I buy them, I give them away as

13:14

gifts. It's Burner dot com,

13:16

b y r na dot com, slash

13:19

Hannity. If you use my name, he at a

13:21

ten percent discount. Anyway, you're gonna

13:23

love their mission for a rifle. You're gonna love their pistols,

13:25

and you're gonna love their shotgun shells. You can use

13:27

your own shotgun Burner dot

13:29

com slash Hannity. That's Berner by

13:32

r NA dot com slash Annity. We're in

13:34

Des Moines, Iowa for tonight's caucus.

13:36

Full coverage nine Eastern a regular time

13:39

on the Fox News Channel. All

13:43

right, we continue now with Lieutenant Governor Mark

13:46

Robinson of North Carolina now running for governor

13:48

as we also continue our coverage.

13:50

We are in Des Moines. We're in Iowa for tonight's

13:52

big caucus as we kick off officially

13:55

the twenty twenty four election season. The

13:57

best election coverage available on your radio

13:59

dials right here? Do you believe

14:02

that these national polls are reflective

14:05

of the people of North Carolina

14:08

and as much as they see Joe Biden At

14:10

the end of the day, I can't name a single policy

14:13

that he's been successful on. At

14:15

the end of the day, I can't. I can't

14:17

say on any issue we are

14:19

better off than we were four years ago. Now,

14:22

peace and prosperity usually

14:25

tend to drive elections. In this case, if

14:28

you can't, if you can't point

14:30

to a single accomplishment, how do you get how

14:32

do you get people to vote for you? Again?

14:35

Absolutely, I mean all you got to do is take a look

14:37

at take a look at the state level. Compare California,

14:39

it's run by a start raven, luntic

14:42

libel compared to Florida, which.

14:44

Is run by sounds like you want a debate Avenuwsom

14:47

next, I'll be glad to moderate. I

14:49

don't know if you saw the debate with the Sanda's Did

14:51

you see it?

14:52

I did. I saw parts of it, And I'm telling

14:54

you.

14:54

What do you mean you saw parts of it? He's supposed to watch the

14:56

whole show. Lieutenant Governor? What's up with that?

14:59

I'm a bit guy. I have

15:03

to know what I suspected all along

15:05

that Gavin Newsom is a stark, raven, a maniac

15:07

liberal who's destroyed his state. Meanwhile,

15:10

Ron de Santa says run that state and

15:12

done nothing but good there and called the fortunes

15:15

of Florida to be straight up.

15:16

By the way, did you see what they're trying to do it in California?

15:19

The Wall Street Journal talked about it. They want

15:21

to implement a wealth tax, but they

15:23

also want to apply the wealth tax to people

15:25

that have moved out of the state. How do

15:27

you tax people of the state income tax

15:29

or a wealth tax when they don't live in your state anymore.

15:32

And by the way, one of the reasons I see all this

15:34

coming to New York in the years to come, I

15:36

got the hell out.

15:38

That's exactly right. People are abandoning these failing

15:41

these failing states, and the states are failing because

15:43

of bad policy. It's the

15:45

same way at the national level. Take a look

15:47

at the way the country was under President Trump

15:49

to look at the gas prices, look at the food

15:52

prices of the economy. We were energy independent,

15:54

our enemies were standing down. Now look

15:56

at it under a president Joe Biden. Look

15:59

at it.

16:00

We just had President Trump on is he supporting

16:02

your candidacy yet or you

16:05

don't know?

16:06

Are you talking about Joe Biden?

16:08

No, just Donald Trump. I had Joe Biden

16:10

would never come near this show. By the way, he's

16:12

not capable of speaking for three minutes straight.

16:15

That'd be impossible.

16:16

Sure, for sure, not without two cards. He

16:18

could absolutely even.

16:19

With the Q cards, I don't think he'd make it.

16:22

Listen, we're big fans of yours. We'd love

16:24

to see you be the governor of the great state of

16:26

North Carolina. I think

16:28

you're a phenomenal not politician.

16:31

I think you're a leader and you will want

16:33

to say things that many others are

16:35

afraid to say. And I give you a lot of credit for that.

16:37

And you speak the truth and Americans

16:40

need to hear more truth. Lieutenant

16:42

Governor Mark Robinson, North Carolina. We

16:44

love having you on the program. You're always welcome, sir.

16:46

Thank you again for being with us.

16:48

Thank you, Sean. Appreciate you all.

16:50

Right, eight hundred nine point one show on our number. If

16:52

you want to be a part of the program

16:56

driving.

16:57

Liberals crazy three

17:00

hours a day, every day.

17:03

The Sean Hannity Show is back

17:05

on the air. I twenty five to

17:07

the top of the hour. Thank you for being with us. We are

17:09

in Des Moines, Iowa for tonight's caucus

17:11

just now, less than two hours away

17:14

local time. It will

17:16

happen eight o'clock at

17:19

Eastern time, and so

17:22

it's getting very very interesting and

17:24

I know a lot of people are excited about it. Actually,

17:26

I'm sorry three hours away. If I could do my

17:28

math, i'd actually, you know, maybe I can get

17:30

a professional job. Anyway,

17:33

We're here and we're going to get to your calls in

17:35

just a second. The story

17:37

I don't know where I put it. But

17:40

the story about the FAA hiring

17:42

people, I mean,

17:44

it's unbelievable. We'll get to that in

17:47

a second. Anyway, if you have in trouble

17:49

picking a new Year's resolution, I have one for you.

17:51

I don't know if you've been watching what's been happening. The

17:53

cost of parts for automobiles

17:55

has just gone through the roof. I

17:57

mean even even things like

18:00

alternators, those the prices of those

18:02

items have gone way through the roof and starters.

18:04

And obviously, if you're a good mechanic,

18:07

let me tell you you're going to make a fortune

18:09

every year because they're in such need. But

18:12

anyway, one thing I don't have

18:14

to worry about as an expensive car repair,

18:16

Why because I have car shield protection. With

18:19

the price of everything involving your car is

18:21

now rising, I locked in my price

18:23

God forbids something big breaks on my car, it's

18:26

all covered. Car Shield offers protection

18:28

plans for around one hundred bucks a month, and

18:30

it covers more parts now than ever before,

18:32

including alternators and big ticket items

18:35

like your transmission. And

18:37

it doesn't matter if your car has five thousand or

18:39

one hundred and fifty thousand miles on it. Car

18:41

shield has a protection plan for you. Now

18:43

this year you get to choose your coverage through

18:46

car shield and then God forbid

18:48

something happens to your car, they have

18:50

you covered. And let me say, as

18:52

the last point of this, because I think it's really important,

18:55

is it keeps you and your family safe when

18:57

you're on the road because they have you know,

19:00

they literally will come to where you are

19:02

and help you in your moment of need.

19:05

And you don't want to be stuck on the road, especially

19:07

in some towns, in some cities across our country.

19:10

Go to carshield dot com slash Hannity or give

19:12

them a call. It's toll free eight hundred five eight

19:14

seven fifty sixty. That's eight hundred

19:16

five eight seven five zero six zero.

19:19

If you use my name, you save twenty percent. Or

19:21

their website carshield dot com slash

19:23

Hannity. All right, let's get to our busy

19:25

phones. Let's say hi to Tom

19:28

Is in Illinois. Tom, how are you welcome to

19:30

Iowa. I see that your governor

19:32

has been sent into the state of Iowa to

19:35

scream about Maga Republicans

19:37

because that's all they've got. They can't sit, they

19:39

can't run on policy. But what Joe Biden did

19:41

to the people of Iowa by just not

19:44

making them first in the nation. What

19:46

he's done to New Hampshire. I just

19:49

if I'm from those two states, I would take

19:51

that as a slap in the face. I

19:54

like the system that we had, I like the history behind

19:56

it. Anyway, Tom, how are

19:58

you what's going on your governor?

20:01

Your governor is working for Joe today. He's

20:03

not working for you, the people in Illinois.

20:06

Yeah, Hi, Sean, thanks for taking

20:08

my call. Yeah, it's very unfortunate, but that's

20:11

that's the situation. We have just

20:13

a couple of thoughts I have. First, congratulations

20:16

on your move to Florida. Uh, fantastic

20:19

move for you.

20:21

By the way, do you know what it's like to leave eighty degree

20:23

weather even though it was raining

20:25

when I left to leave eight to leave eighty

20:27

degree weather and just you know, get shocked

20:30

with twenty degree below zero

20:33

weather. It's pretty shocking change

20:35

it is.

20:36

You'll be glad to get back to Florida.

20:38

You know something that's looming large for this

20:41

next election cycle, Sean, and I'm not really

20:43

hearing too much about it, but I

20:45

think it's going to be a huge issue, and that is

20:47

the Trump tax cuts expire at the end

20:50

of next year. And I

20:52

don't know if people realize the significance

20:55

of of what will happen if the Left

20:57

gets back in the White House, and

20:59

god forbid, if they take control of the

21:02

House and so on with

21:04

this election cycle. I'm

21:07

really concerned about our economy in terms

21:09

of if the Trump tax cuts expire,

21:13

I believe we will go from some

21:15

of the largest tax cuts in history

21:18

to probably the largest tax increase

21:21

we have ever seen. And I think that

21:23

would be disastrous for our economy.

21:25

I think it would be the nail on the coffin

21:27

of a very fragile economy

21:29

that we already have.

21:31

Yeah, add that to the record debt that Joe

21:33

Biden came from putting us under, and you're

21:35

right, one hundred percent, but

21:38

it's even bigger than that. Let me just give you a

21:40

point that I accepted

21:42

as at the time. Is the right thing to do when

21:45

President Trump got rid of the what

21:47

it's called the salt of deductions, which is

21:50

state and local taxes. You used to be able to deduct

21:52

it if you're from a high tax state.

21:54

Here's the problem. It's for rewarding all

21:57

the wrong behavior of government and politicians.

22:00

In other words, an extra benefit

22:02

for states that tax higher where

22:04

where they're citizens could then deduct

22:07

those state and local taxes. Well,

22:09

what about states like Florida, Tennessee, Texas,

22:12

or the Carolinas that either have no income

22:15

tax or low income tax. You

22:17

know, they're not getting the benefit of that deduction. So

22:19

when it was taken away, I ended up paying personally

22:21

more money, But I did it because

22:23

I believed in it, because it was the right thing to do. You don't

22:26

reward states that have

22:29

the wrong policies. They've got to feel the pain

22:31

of those policies. So hopefully then people

22:33

in those states would implement change. I don't see it

22:35

happening in California, New York, Illinois,

22:38

your state anytime soon, But

22:40

you're absolutely right those

22:43

if those tax cuts are allowed

22:45

to lapse, it's going to be a

22:47

disaster. On top of the Biden economy.

22:50

I'm telling you what to watch out for, though. We

22:52

cannot sustain an economy where we're

22:54

going to pay a trillion dollars just to

22:57

pay off our debt. In other words, right now,

22:59

this year alone, we'll have to spend

23:01

one trillion dollars. We take in a little over

23:03

four trillion, four and a half trillion, whatever the number

23:06

happens to be. And that's you

23:08

know, twenty percent or more

23:11

of the money that the government takes

23:13

in just to finance the debt

23:15

alone. That's before you pay a

23:17

penny in Social Security, a penny of Medicare,

23:20

pennyon veterans benefits, that

23:22

is before you pay

23:24

for national defense. That money

23:26

has to be paid back to the banks.

23:28

And that is a prescription

23:31

for a depression the likes

23:33

of which we've not seen since nineteen twenty

23:36

nine. I have no confidence

23:38

at all in the Democratic parties

23:42

ability to understand

23:44

how dangerous a game that they are

23:46

playing. This debt bomb that

23:48

they have built is going to

23:51

it As my mother used this our

23:54

money to buy votes in the future for

23:56

themselves. We will rue the day, I promise

23:58

you that is going to happen. And those

24:01

tax cuts need to be kept

24:04

in place. And secondly, they need to live within

24:06

their means and they need to start cutting

24:08

spending drastically. Anyway, Tom,

24:11

appreciate it, buddy, Glad you called Roberto.

24:13

Also, amazing state of Florida, Sean.

24:15

We will thank you, my friend. And everyone's been

24:17

so warm and welcoming. I've not had one

24:19

person attack me yet like I do in the

24:22

streets of New York, meaning.

24:23

Verbed around with an entourage, your people

24:26

back and forth to show up in DC with

24:29

an entourag don't accomplish anything,

24:31

Hop back on a plane, head back to California.

24:34

And who's paying for this all this stuffy

24:37

look.

24:38

That's a great question. How many millions

24:40

did he personally get paid? What services

24:43

did he ever render for any of those

24:45

services? He's was admittedly

24:47

addicted to very hard drugs crack cocaine

24:50

at the time.

24:51

Uh.

24:51

He admits that he has no experience

24:54

in the in the case of Barisma in

24:56

Ukraine and CEFC in China.

24:59

Well, why they paying him millions

25:01

of dollars then with no expertise

25:03

at a time he's addicted to drugs. So,

25:06

I mean, it's a question that we need to know. I

25:08

mean, the more ironic moment came

25:10

when Hunter was trying to lower

25:13

the child support payments

25:15

for his granddaughter that he needed

25:18

a DNA test. They have proven it was his.

25:21

They still don't really recognize this girl.

25:24

I mean, the Biden's were shamed into

25:26

it, Joe and Jill Biden after The girl

25:28

was four years old, and Maureen Dowd wrote a column

25:30

about it in the New York Times. But

25:33

you know, it's pretty despicable. He flew

25:35

down again. The hearing is to lower

25:37

his child support payments, and he flies down on a

25:39

private jet. How about you saved the money on

25:41

the private jet. You give it to your your

25:43

daughter and take care of your children. You

25:46

know, I've got two kids, and I

25:48

understand it is my responsibility.

25:51

I am a call me Fred

25:53

Flintstone, call me, you know, Barney

25:56

Rubble. I don't really care. Bam bam if

25:58

you want, because maybe I'm just

26:00

a little old fashioned and I kind of think that

26:02

that is my job as a father to provide

26:04

for my family and my children,

26:07

and you know, even as

26:09

they get older, you know, occasionally, Dad,

26:12

you mind, if i'd

26:14

really love to go to the game, but you know, would

26:18

you want to come, I'm like, no, I'll buy you

26:20

two tickets, get out of here. But

26:22

you know, but I won't spoil my kids either. I

26:24

refuse to spoil them. There are things

26:26

they asked me for and I'm like I laugh at them. I'm

26:29

like, no, go on it yourself. Nope,

26:32

sorry, you know, do it

26:34

to do it the old fashioned way. But Dad,

26:36

I really like this car. I'm like, yeah, we'll save

26:38

you money and maybe one day you can afford to buy it. Good

26:41

luck with that. But

26:43

anyway, so it's you raise a good question. I'll

26:45

give you the last word, ROBERTA.

26:47

Yeah. Second.

26:47

Yeah, that's what being a great father

26:50

is. But the second

26:52

question is I'll hope the Congress

26:54

those then follow up and issue a second

26:56

so fena because that's a legal move that his

26:59

lawyer is a doing. Because if they do, that

27:01

mean it's the first of poena. He cannot be houlding

27:04

content to Congress because there's a second

27:06

subpoena issue. And I hope

27:08

the Congress just continue following into contemp.

27:10

Well, we already know that they're going to issue the second

27:12

subpoena and they

27:15

explain why in the interest

27:17

of getting to the bottom of this, and

27:20

you know, but I'll tell you my prediction is,

27:22

as I said earlier in the program, is

27:24

I think he's going to plead the fifth I

27:26

don't think he can answer those questions. We'll

27:28

learn a lot on Thursday. I believe that the

27:30

Sugar Brother is Kevin Morris,

27:33

character from Hollywood I think he's going

27:35

in for his deposition. If he pleads

27:37

the fifth the whole time, that's probably going to be

27:39

the strategy of everybody anyway,

27:42

Roberto, I'll be back soon. I

27:44

will be in Florida, my home tomorrow. Thank

27:46

God. I appreciate you being

27:48

with us. Eight hundred and ninety four one, Shawn is

27:50

our number if you want to be a part of the program.

27:53

Amy is in the Great State of Georgia.

27:56

I had the honor of calling Georgia my home for

27:58

four years from ninety two to ninety five before

28:01

I started at the Fox News Channel. Love my

28:03

friends in Georgia.

28:03

How are you, Amy, Hey, Sean,

28:06

thanks for taking my call. I'm good. And

28:09

I just had a comment about the Iowa Caucuses

28:11

because I'm originally from Iowa and

28:14

my mom still lives there. I'm

28:17

trying to get her to go out to Caucus.

28:19

She's the older lady, so I think she's

28:22

gonna stay at home because of the weather.

28:25

I'm a little concerned about the turnout for the weather,

28:27

but overall,

28:29

I know the Islands are pretty hardy

28:32

people. If they're gonna

28:34

go out, they're going to go out.

28:36

So you know, it's

28:38

funny because I've been asking people ever since

28:40

I got here what their plans are. They're all planning on

28:42

going now. It's actually it's

28:44

a pretty expedited process. You

28:47

caucus, you vote, and

28:49

they count the votes in front of everybody, and

28:52

you declare a winner. I mean, so

28:54

it starts eight Eastern, it starts seven o'clock

28:56

local time. I'm on the air at nine.

28:59

I would imagine in my hour that

29:01

we're gonna know who the winner is, We'll know who came

29:03

in second and third place. I mean, we're gonna cover every

29:06

angle of this. We're gonna blanket we have the whole state

29:08

blanketed. And you

29:10

know, and I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of people trying

29:13

to everyone's

29:15

got an agenda. You know, if Donald Trump

29:17

doesn't win by twenty eight points and he wins by sixteen,

29:20

oh, this is a disaster. Meanwhile,

29:23

that would be a record Iowa

29:25

caucus win of any Republican presidential

29:27

candidate. Anyway, Thanks for

29:29

a good call, have a great day, Amy, hopeing you'll

29:32

be watching tonight. Let's say hi

29:34

to Mark. He's in Ohio. What's up Mark,

29:37

the Buckeye State. What's happening?

29:39

Hey, Sean, how's it going, thanks to

29:41

taking my call and congratulations

29:44

on the mood Florida.

29:45

You know everyone's saying the same thing. You know how many people

29:47

are also saying this, I'm gonna follow

29:50

your I'm not far behind. Many

29:53

people are saying it, and I'd been saying it to a

29:55

lot of my friends that went before me. I'm not

29:57

far behind you. As soon as I get my opening,

29:59

I'm out. So yeah, I'm thinking.

30:01

About it, especially because of the weather. It's

30:04

very cold here. Hey, Bud, what I was calling

30:06

for is I got a lot on my mind

30:08

here lately. I'm really getting tired of the direction

30:11

or countries going in. The thievery

30:13

is getting to be just a bit too much.

30:16

Biden, all the Democrats,

30:20

the way they're holding things up. I

30:23

mean, these guys are making money on top

30:25

of money, way above what

30:27

they should be making. And on

30:30

top of it, they sold this country

30:32

out. I mean they've one percent sold this

30:34

country out. You've got Biden on TV. There's

30:37

a quick pro quo setting

30:39

there telling Ukraine to

30:41

get rid of the district or the

30:44

prosecuting attorney

30:46

that was investigating his son or

30:48

Hey, they're not going to get a billion dollars and

30:51

sure enough, by God, it was done. And

30:54

these guys have been robbing this country

30:56

for too long, absolutely too long.

30:59

And it's not just this government has to

31:01

be shut down and rebuilt. This government

31:03

is completely non for the American

31:06

people.

31:06

Let me tell you something. I hope everybody hears you.

31:09

And this is why, because this

31:11

election matters that

31:14

much. And that means it's

31:16

not just who we pick as president. It's

31:19

also going to matter if

31:21

Republicans have a big majority in

31:23

the House and a nice majority

31:25

in the Senate. Otherwise it's

31:28

you know what, I shuddered

31:31

to think what America can turn into. All

31:33

Right, that's going to wrap things up for today,

31:36

and Iowa our caucus tonight.

31:38

They begin eight eastern. We'll be on at nine

31:41

eastern. We'll be getting results.

31:43

We'll be analyzing winners and losers

31:46

and who does well and what expectations

31:48

were every angle imaginable. Best

31:50

election coverage available on your

31:53

television dial, and we will be back

31:55

tomorrow with full results. Best election

31:57

coverage on your radio dial tomorrow. Two hundred

31:59

and ninety three days to go until hopefully

32:02

we bring back American sanity.

32:04

Thank you for being with us, Thank you for making the show

32:06

possible. Have a great night. We'll see

32:08

at nine. Back here on Well,

32:11

back from Florida tomorrow where it's not as cold.
