TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

This is an iHeartPuckist. Guaranteed Human. I think they should do what they do on the NFL Draft. You know, when coverage of the NFL Draft is basically for moms.

And they're just like, hey, he has a dog named Spark. Listen, NFL covers zero on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. The World Cup is over. But if you caught the soccer bug and aren't sure what to do now, check out our podcast, Big Kick Energy.

I'm Cameron Dicker, the kicker from the Los Angeles Chargers, and I'm here with Timmy Tillman, current LAFC star player. So, we know a little something about kicking balls. Each week we'll tackle things like, who's winning the Premier League this year? What do you think it's harder?

It's going to penalty kick, it's going to be a few goals. Join us each week for a quick chat with your soccer loving girls about the best sport in the world. Soccer, just don't tell my coaches I said that. Listen to Big Kick Energy on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

I believe that whoever was in that room and did that was a murder. A new podcast series, Fault Line Hadeetha, tells the story of a shocking crime and a cover-up at the highest levels of the United States Marine Corps. If you've got five players and you offer a unity to four, you better be right about the fifth, because if you're not, then you're just giving a unity to your cover. Listen to Fault Line Hadeetha on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

So we're going to stay on the road a little bit. We have some announcements coming up in the days ahead. And last night in Michigan, and we had Mike Rogers, Town Hall, John James Town Hall. And anyway, so let me play for you, Mike Rogers, running against Abdul El-Sayed, responding to questions about the rise of anti-Semitism.

We see it in the halls of Congress. We hear it on the airwaves. We see a rise worldwide about this. We talk about it a lot.

It is absolutely chilling. And here's what he had to say. As an American Jew living here in Michigan, there are times where I feel scared to show my Jewish identity. And even sometimes talk in my star of David Knackless if I'm out in public.

So I want to know what specific actions would you take as senator to combat anti-Semitism in all forms of hate and ensure that Jews and all Michiganders here are safe in their own communities. Thank you very, very much for that. You know, I wore the uniform in the United States that said, so people could pray the way they want, enjoy the faith that they have, the way they want in America. This to me is the most anti-American movement I think I have seen, certainly as long as I've been alive.

We had that same experience. My wife and I talked to two young Jewish women at University of Michigan campus who, literally with tears in their eyes, were talking about talking their star of David into their blouse when they walked to class because they were getting harassed for being Jewish. Young men with yamikas were wearing baseball caps because they were getting harassed by their walk in the class. I don't know about you.

This is not the America I want to live in. And this is why we have to win this election to stop the most extreme. One other thing my Rogers was asked about, how would you, you know, what would he do to foster employment and opportunity for young people, which by the way, I'm glad that young people, you know, are caring about the job market, the future, what careers they ought to be getting into, and here's what he said. So many young people raised in Michigan, often prefer to remain here, to raise families, but often they're forced to move out of state for better opportunities.

And this is a story we've seen over and over the past few decades, I think. And Senator, what will you do to foster employment and opportunity here in Michigan, especially for the young? Yeah, thank you. This is exactly why my wife and I decided to run for this election.

Again, if you look at where we are in Michigan, eight years in Democrats, we lost 27,000 manufacturing jobs, highest utility rates in the Midwest, highest auto insurance in the nation, new home ownership, the average age now in Michigan, 40 years old. So what we're going to do is get back to making sure our kids are educated. We're going to have a housing plan that gets young adults into housing earlier. If they so decide to do that, we're bringing back defense industrial base work.

And I just want to, real quickly on this education, if we don't fix this, we're in trouble two-thirds of our fourth graders in Michigan, can't read in the fourth grade. You have a 70% chance of going to prison on being on welfare if you can't read in the fourth grade. I have a plan to change that through phonics-based in addiction to get kids reading again. We're going to put shop back in high school.

We're going to get Michigan back to the work belt and the envy of the country within the first six years I guarantee. Now, one other race in Michigan we're paying attention to is for the gubernatorial position, and that's John James, longtime friend of this program, like Mike Rogers, pointing out 90% of the country is doing better than Michigan. And because they want to say Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. Okay, that doesn't explain why they're doing so bad, bad, bad, bad.

Anyway, listen. We go all around the state, all 83 counties. People are excited for change. Democrats have been in charge in the state for eight years.

We are 42nd out of 15 infrastructure, 43rd out of 15 economy, 45th out of 50 in education. US News and World Report has Michigan 46th overall. They want to blame Trump for everything, but we all have the same president. 90% of the country is doing better than Michigan.

This is the birthplace of the middle class. This is the home of the American dream. This is a place that people came from all over the world and all over the country for opportunity. Well, you know what?

Change is on the way. Help is on the right. And the best is yet to come. Change is a beautiful answer.

It's dark. I mean, it's really common sense versus crazy. It really is what works. How many things it's crazy?

I mean, what they're talking about, this is not the Democrat party you used to know. I mean, just take it, for example, what's going on right here. Mike Duggan was the mayor of the city of Detroit, the largest city in the state of Michigan popular Democrat. ran as an independent because even he recognized it.

He couldn't win a primary in this modern Democrat party. Karen McDonald was favored to be a attorney general. She got beat by Ellie Savitt, a leftist AG candidate who let somebody out who hauled tight a woman, and then he shot a mother outside of an old Navy. And then you have Dana Nestle, the Democrat AG.

Nobody's conservative, right? She couldn't even go to the Democrat convention in the state of Michigan. She's feared for her safety because she's Jewish. This is how extreme they have gotten.

And they're saying the crazy part out loud. It used to be open borders. Now it's open the prisons. This insane.

We are standing up all the way back. All right, joining us now is Jesse Arm. He is a Manhattan Institute Vice President, pollster, happens to be from Michigan. He is here to weigh in on last night's town hall.

What a disaster it would be for the nation. He wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post about the candidate and said amid concerns over rising anti-Semitism on the left, the Michigan Attorney General recently told her fellow Jewish Democrats that they may have to sacrifice, quote, the comfort, safety, security, and even the very future of our own people in exchange for the opportunity to save the rest of humanity. Wow. What a statement.

That is. He grew up in West Bloomfield, Michigan. Anyway, Jesse, it was great to be in your state yesterday. How are you?

Glad you could be with us. Thank you very much, Sean. It's great to be with you. I'm actually calling you from Ohio.

So definitely not my home state. But I'm jealous you got to be at my home state last night. And I thought you put on a phenomenal town hall. Thank you for being there.

Well, it's not the last one that we're planning on doing. We have more coming. And only because, you know, I want to be on the road. I want to be on the ground.

I want to get a feel for what's happening. I had an opportunity to speak to many people in Michigan. By the way, we had Abdul El-Sayed protesters at the event last night, but I just didn't highlight them in terms of their outside the location where we were doing the show. So my question is, is it possible, this congenital liar, is it possible, this radical extremist that won't condemn, you know, even the IRGC or Hamas or the Muslim Brotherhood could be elected in Michigan?

Well, unfortunately, I do think this is possible. And listeners to your show, especially listeners who are in the Great Lakes, they who are in Michigan should understand this is a very real possibility. So even if they are somewhat dissatisfied with the current state of playing nationally, if they haven't gotten everything they hope to see from this administration quite yet, they should contend with the reality that an extremist on the order of something we haven't really ever seen before, a send in American politics, is on the precipice of securing a United States Senate seat in Michigan. I thought the anti-Semitism questions that you deal with last night were incredibly important and frankly disturbing.

I believe there was a young woman named Jody who asked you a very on the nose question about the anti-Semitism she's dealing with her own community, being afraid to go out and be just tucking her star bathed into her shirt rather than being able to get her. I think there's a lot of people who are bathed into her shirt rather than going out and wearing it loudly and proudly. And look, this is the bottom line now. What gets lost in all of this is Abdul Fayed's own record.

Yes, you mentioned that he's unwilling to acknowledge that the US has ended in Israel or a foe in Iran. He won't even answer the question when pressed about which of those nations poses a greater threat to the United States, the world leading state sponsor of terrorism or our greatest ally in the region. But beyond all that, this guy's own record is so extreme, right? He was a supporter of defunding the police.

He lies about it now. He opposed fossil fuel infrastructure, which would cause gas prices to rise. He doesn't talk about that now. He's advocated for the elimination of private health insurance and he's acknowledged that that would mean taxes going up for everybody with an alternative being replaced, a government run system coming into the picture.

And now he says, just lies and lies and lies. Maybe your taxes won't have to go up. Maybe the private health insurance doesn't need to be totally eliminated. This is a guy whose problems are compounding by being dishonest with Michigan voters.

That's pretty scary. Do you think, and I asked this question of the audience last night, do you think that in fact that the people of Michigan are fully informed about Abdul El-Sayed's radicalism and it was universal, the answer was no. They didn't feel enough people knew about how insane his positions are. Absolutely.

And I think that's part of the reason why Sean, he's denying your invitation to come on and speak with you. He doesn't want to be pressed on those positions. You can see it when he's asked on the campaign trail about his family's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. His own ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, right?

He signed a letter in support of a Muslim Brotherhood crackdown on journalists in his own country of Egypt. And he doesn't want to have to answer to those questions, Sean. He practically acts like, you know, you've asked him some invasives and holding an appropriate question. If you press him on why he brought in a campaign surrogate during the primary phase of this campaign who explicitly said that America deserved the 9-11 terror attacks, this guy's an extremist on the highest order imaginable, and he doesn't want to have to answer to it to voters.

He's just going to act like them into thinking that any kinds of questions about his radical record are somehow bigoted in some way, shape or form, which is of course an absurd proposition. All right, quick break right back and we will continue. Our final woman's coming up with Jesse Arm and Hatton Institute VP Polster. He is from Michigan.

Your call is coming up as well. New King Rich coming up as well, 80941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program as we continue. Elections, polls, campaigns, the latest news on your candidate. We've got you covered this election year.

I can hand right here on the Sean Hannity Show. All right, we continue our final moments with Jesse Arm Manhattan Institute VP, also a pollster, also from Michigan. All right, let me play Abdul Al-Sayed. I want you to listen to this exchange and get your comments on the other side.

But for those who do want to hear, do you condemn the Iranian regime? What do you say? I mean, they've engaged in horrific acts. There's no question about that.

I am for democracy. I'm for human rights. It's what I want for our people. It's what I want for all people.

Right, and there's no question that that regime has engaged in acts that are terrible. Like that's not an open question, right? But the big picture question is not like for us is what's in our best interest? What's in fairness just to the question of it's yes or no?

You do condemn the Iranian regime? I condemn a lot of their action. But if you want to pathway to peace with folks, you're going to have to figure out how to get to a position of peace. I condemn the Saudi human rights abuses too.

But that's not a question you're asking me. So I'm just saying that there are a lot of condemnable things that a lot of foreign governments have done. But the question for us has to be how do we promote our values and how do we do that in a way while we're also promoting peace? And I just think this idea of condemn or not condemn is kind of an odd approach.

I condemn the genocide that Israel has done. I condemn the apartheid too. I condemn the attack on democracy that Iran has done. But we engage with actors in a world where you kind of have to figure out how to make peace with people you disagree with.

That's what diplomacy is about. And so the question of condemning and not condemning is actually secondary to the question of how should we get to a pathway to peace? Your reaction to that. Wow.

Well, Abdullah Said harbors an outright hostility to America as we know it. So it's not particularly surprising that Abdullah Said is running traffic and basically apologizing for America's foes. He says that the Iranian terror regime is not condemnable. As such, he says that sure they may be engaged in some level of human rights abuses, but he refuses to acknowledge that this is the world leading state sponsor of terrorism.

That this terror regime has gallons of American blood on its hands. And he at some level harbors a baseline sympathy for the enemies of the United States and throughout the third world who harbor hostility for the West. And you're just simply not going to hear him condemn outright the people who want to destroy us and destroy our civilization. What is he willing to pit it to?

Instead condemnation of our allies condemnation of Israel everything falls on Israel or America at the end of the day at all our fault or our friends fault. And at the end of the day, if he loses his election, he'll blame it on impact. He'll blame it on supporters of the US Israel alliance. He'll blame it on anybody except himself because he's not willing to contend with his own radical.

And instead he is committed to this project of painting America at the most evil baddies in the whole world. Look, I appreciate you being with us. I really do. I think your moral clarity is admirable and we're glad you could join us Jesse arm.

But I'm telling everybody this is what is on the ballot two weeks from today. This is what we're dealing with. And especially if you live in Maine and New Hampshire and North Carolina and Georgia and Michigan and Iowa and Ohio and Texas and Kansas and Nebraska and Alaska. We need your help desperately to stop this radicalism from ever getting a foothold in the United States Senate and getting control.

Someone opened the door and was the primary shooter. It's a possible you could do that and then suppress the number. A new podcast series, Fault Line Haditha, tells the story the United States government wants to keep buried. How can you not know if there were women and children in there?

Can you tell us here that you don't know what happened that day? Based on thousands of pages of previously classified documents and over 100 hours of secretly filmed video. The truth about one of the most infamous crimes in Marine Corps history can finally be told. If you've got five players and one of them is guilty of murder at least and you offer immunity to the other four you better be right about the fifth because if you're not then you're just giving immunity to your color.

Listen to Fault Line Haditha on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. And it uncovers the real truth about the politics of DC. He's your watch dog on Big Brother. Every day.

Hannity is on right now. All right 25 now till the top of the hour 80941 Sean. If you want to be a part of the program. You know one race I don't want to ignore is in the great state of Maine again I'm going through the states that we are paying the most attention to especially as it.

As it applies to US control of the US Senate and one of the important races is in the great state of Maine Susan Collins dealing with this. This vile tempered radical DSA extremists by the name of Troy Jackson. He's like a he's like a poor man's Graham Plattner you know platter had this quote weird charisma even though he had a Nazi tattoo and all the problems associated with him. This guy's just dumb he didn't know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid.

And then during the last debate you know told Susan Collins to shut up just to remind you here's what he said. That's one thing that I've been consistent on. Two issues. I'm sorry somebody's interrupting.

We'll have a security deal with that. I don't think it's a destroyer. They're losing our water. So this is obviously one of Troy's supporters.

I didn't know that kid. Okay. What a nice guy. I'm not giving an opportunity to apologize for this and he just flat out refuses.

Remember he's got he's got some issue some problem when it comes to women because everybody that talks about his vile vicious violent almost like temper you know is a woman including you know a fellow legislator claiming that he in fact threw a water bottle out or can you imagine Linda as long as we've been together. How many years now 20 years two decades 22 years this coming May. Oh my gosh you're going to count the seconds the hours and the minutes you asked for listen you have questions I have answers that's my job title giving you answers. Did you ever throw a water water bottle at me as mad as you have been against me at times.

I have not. Did I ever throw one at you. You have not. It sounds like something we should try.

I have not even had the urge to throw. First of all we usually need our water so I don't think we would waste it on that. All right anyway here's Troy Jackson you want to apologize for this week. There was a a protester in the debate that you had with Susan Collins.

She responded by saying this must be a Troy Jackson supporter and you told the senator shut up. Do you regret saying that? No. She said that it was Troy's supporter.

She accused me of setting that up. I had no idea who it was. I was surprised whenever he jumped up out of there. I've had four debates with Senator Collins.

I've took her hand afterwards every time but what I'm not going to be is talk down to by Senator Collins. I'm not going to be accused of things like that. I mean I'm fighting for Mayors and I just think that was another situation where she was talking down to me. I'm not going to apologize for that.

I'm going to apologize for telling a woman to shut up. By the way Linda shut up. Can you imagine if I said that to you? You know how this audience would turn on me?

You know it would have been great TV honestly is if Susan Collins in her very demure way walked calmly across the stage stood in front of him and said no and just said what you say to me? What you say to me? Troy do you know that me and would have crumbled like a you know forget about it. It would have been over and she would have won the debate.

I think she did win the debate. I know but now he's playing the victim. I won't be talking down soon. Shut up.

This guy is how do I explain this is like I don't know I don't like to use some of these terms but this guy is low rent. He is no class about him at all. Look I'm very old fashioned when it comes to how you treat women in life. I just am right.

But if you listen to him Sean he says that a lot like that was his default response. Do you know what I'm saying? I mean he just came flying out. He probably says that all your default against me just for the record.

What's that? Shut up. No, no, no, that's not the one. That's not the one I usually come back with.

I think you know the one you come back with Linda. It's the other one. That's that that is as close. Look what I love about like the South and South Carolina and people in the South.

They'll go bless your heart. Bless your heart. I told you I just found out that was bad. I didn't even know.

It is the greatest way to talk like you without talking like you. It is just so cutting and so powerful and it's really amazing actually. All right. Let's get to our phones.

800 9 4 1 Sean. If you want to be a part of the program Ohio ransom next on the Sean Hannity show ransom. How are you glad you called Sir? Well, it's a good talk to you again.

I want to let you know that I voted early two weeks ago as of tomorrow Wednesday. I got my vote in for Vivek. Got my vote in for John Houston. What I'm appalled about is the idea that maybe any act in and shared Brown might win these races by the left wing pollsters.

I want to get in time to give you a feel for what's going on in Ohio for every thousand people that are being reported to come out. There's actually 3000. So there's actually a groundswell of voters in Ohio that are actually voting early and the liberal media is trying to downplay it. And if you if you look into history about Amy Acton, she calls me during the COVID-19 she was a health czar with Mike DeWine and cost the Ohio taxpayer probably $1.4 billion.

And there was over 3000 deaths because of her her decisions on health. And then she had brown, of course, he backs transgenderism and anything that a Democrat wants. He'll give him the vote. Jared Brown supports the radical Green New Deal.

He is he will support the radical DSA agenda. He won't say it publicly because he's scared to death because he knows it's political suicide. He's a 99% Biden voter Green New Deal open borders radical. He does not fit the values of the great state of Ohio, the Buckeye State period full stop.

And the people of Ohio, you know, these polls have been ridiculously close. I don't like it. And I want people to go out in mass in Ohio and vote Republican. I mean, this is insane.

Yeah, I agree. And I also want to encourage you with your platform, the churches need to step up. I know you're a believer. I'm a believer in Jesus.

And this whole thing about church is not getting involved in politics is ridiculous. God is all about government. He's all about government and politics. He's about every person.

And every person matters. And like you always say, everyone has a gift, the talent and the church needs to step up in Ohio. And if we would just step up as a church and just come out and vote all of our all the things that we stand for and the things we believe in, we could have the candidates we need. And that's according to a Proverbs 29 to.

So I want to say thank you for what you're trying to do. I hope you come to Ohio for a, you know, we're very close to working on a day for Ohio and one for Texas. Okay. And I'll keep you posted.

I promise. Sounds great. And if so, I would love to shake your hand and say God bless you. I know you're my brother and we're going to keep on doing the right thing.

So thank you, Sean, for the chance to talk today. God bless you. All right, my friend. God bless you too.

You're a great American. Janet is where is Janet? Janet is in Arizona. Janet, you're on the Sean Hannity show.

Hi. All right. So how are you today? Thank you, God, so much for what you do for us.

Hey, real quick. I just wanted to talk about our upcoming election and how fearful I am. And basically, no matter who's running, Trump is actually running. And I'm concerned that there are too many people that don't know how he was exonerated for everything that they lied about, you know, who he should, how much money he's gotten.

There's still people that think he's a 34 times don't want too many lies. I'm concerned about the blue states. I'm concerned about the young people voting. I don't think anybody knows what Sharia law is.

I don't think they know what happened to our country. How close we are to losing it. You know, the Christians need to stand up and just really fight for our country. It's very scary right now.

Well, I have seen reports that maybe evangelicals are not voting in the numbers. They should. They're foolish. If they don't understand that that socialism is godless in the sense that trust me, you're not going to have a champion of Judeo Christian values in any Democrat that is now a prominent Democrat running for office.

I don't see one. You know, Tallarico. I'm a Christian that hates Christianity. I state that God is non-binary because it's my biblical worldview.

I believe in six genders because it's my biblical worldview. You know, I want to play this guy, Hamilton, this guy that's running in Kansas, this lunatic mega church pastor that wants people to repent because they're for whiteness and to repent because of their global footprint. We got a tape of him. He had a huge controversy in his church.

His name is Adam Hamilton. He's running against Roger Marshall. And mistakes were made on the handling of a sexual abuse by a volunteer at our church youth camp. The guy kept him at the church for a year after the allegation was made.

There's no excuse for this. Listen. And I have certain benefits by virtue of being educated white and male. Right.

We don't like to hear that. Especially white folks. I like to hear that. But there are benefits that come along with that.

I don't ever want to stop by the police. I'm never afraid that they're going to pull down on me. But every African American man that I know is worried about what might happen when the police pull over. It's not that all the police are bad.

They're going to do something like that. But there's a sphere underneath there. And so the hands go on the steering wheel at 10 and 2. They've been taught that from the time they were children.

Right. I wouldn't talk that because I'm going to be afraid of that. Right. And there's a whole host of other things that are just a part of life.

I can. When you get the idea, there are benefits and privileges to my place in life. I have to recognize that I have to see that. I have to listen.

I have to listen and understand. And finally be able to see the broken in myself. In my indifference. Before I can do anything to help anyone else.

I have to have a conversion. I have to repent. And then he defends the fact that his church kept an accused child molester in place for over a year. Listen.

That's your message to voters who hear this ad. Don't know the facts. And frankly worry about your judgment. Would you handle that situation differently if it happened now?

Absolutely. So what happened back then? It was a volunteer who had gone all the way through their process. We have to check volunteers out.

And it was not completely clear what happened at the time. And who exactly had done this thing? We would have called the police immediately after that. So we would have called the police.

We would have said stop. We would have been in no ways invited this person to participate the second year. They should have never been there. These were mistakes that were made.

Oh, just mistakes were made. Yeah. Just a little mistake. It's not a mistake.

It's pretty standard in this day and age that if somebody's accused of somehow sexually being involved with a child. That person goes away. All right. Quick break.

Right back. We'll continue. To free. It is eight hundred nine four one Sean.

Our number. If you want to be a part of the program as we continue. My assica winning yet me either. World leaders, union businesses, social media.

They all want to work with Trump. He said what he was going to do. And then he did it. The White House is open for business and America is bad.

That energy is on right now. Right back for busy phones. Newt Gingrich at the top of the hour. Charlie is in the great state of Texas.

Texas. We need you. I just know the way to put it. We need Greg Abbott as your governor.

We need Ken Paxton as your senator. Calarico is an is a nutcase. He does not reflect Texas values. Charlie.

How are you? I'm good. Sean. I think that you're 100% right in what you're saying there.

But I think also people in this country don't realize what a blessing Donald Trump was in stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon and slamming the border shut like he did. I'm a chaplain in a hospital in South Texas here. And I don't think a lot of people realize that. One atomic one nuclear weapon was exploded in a major city detonated in a major city in the United States.

It would fill up every burn every bed and every burn ward across the whole United States. And that would cripple our health care system and it would throw this whole country into into chaos. So we need to stop and realize what Donald Trump has done for this country. He's had the guts in the fortitude to do something that I can't remember any president doing in the past.

All of them have avoided the border. And he was the only one that stopped it. And thank God he did. He stopped that.

He stopped Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. He doesn't get credit for any of it. We've had nearly 100 stock market records. We have the greatest data coming back census data for the bottom 25% of wage earners for minorities in America, the poverty level, median income levels.

You know, everybody, nobody wants to say that Donald Trump did anything well. And if you compare it to Biden, a 9% inflation, it's like night and day. Or the fact that, you know, Biden had higher gas prices throughout his entire presidency. And he didn't even, you know, take the risk of defanging radical Islamists in Iran.

It's insane. Appreciate you. Thank you. Hey, it's true, Franklin.
