tv   Hannity  FOX News  April 10, 2024 6:00pm-7:00pm PDT

6:00 pm
joe from alabama, 30 milkshakes? did trump use a straw to drink them? we are investigating whether straws were used and will report back to you tomorrow. we are not afraid of condemning the presidents straw use. leader from virginia, jake paul will pulverize mike tyson, just like lennox lewis did. sal from massachusetts, i hope jake takes those diamond earrings out or mike will make his tooth. michael from florida, jesse, and i give a shout out to my mom too? love you mom. love you mom! love julie's mom, i love you too. [♪♪] [♪♪] >> sean: welcome to hannity. we start with a fox news alert. at this hour we are monitoring live pictures from the biden whitehouse where president joe
6:01 pm
is hosting an official state dinner for the prime minister of japan. take a look. >> both the prime minister and i came of age as our countries -- as they came together. we both remember the choices that were made to forge a friendship that were once only a devastating fight that existed before. >> sean: not exactly awe-inspiring, going back to world war ii it sounds like. to say the least. now this has been an unusually long day for the president. it's extremely rare to see biden after 5:00 pm and as you know he typically goes to bed early and wakes up le but joe is giving it his all for japan's prime minister who traveled over 6000 miles to see him. in fact joe appeared in public multiple times today but not without a lot of help. a lot of help. there were people telling him where to walk, what to say and of course joe did not go anywhere without his trusty giant cheat sheets.
6:02 pm
first inside the white house during a few brief remarks with his japanese counterpart, biden read directly from a note card. of course we can't even say hello without a note card. take a look. >> welcome back to the white house, welcome back to the oval office, it's good to have you here, good to see you again. when we were here last year we said the role played by the united states and japan is becoming even greater. i could not agree more. what we see in our joint support for ukraine in the face of russia's vicious assault is just outrageous. >> sean: my name is joe, welcome to the white house. anyway, a few hours later during a short scripted press conference in the rose garden biden once again read directly from his trusty notecards. he also followed his usual practice of calling on a prearranged group of reporters,
6:03 pm
listed on the note card. this gets very interesting. then biden read prewritten answers from the same note card. the fake news journalist and the media mob, they are okay with this? are they just going to pretend this is normal? fake jake, liberal joe, do you still claim you are a journalist? take a close look at your screen. you can literally, look at this, you can literally see the script in the reflection of his giant sunglasses. you can't make this up. any weight did joe have the answer to a question that he already knew would be asked? because it certainly looks that way. today virtualleverything was scripted by joe's white house staffers. the president merely showed up, tried his best to read verbatim from another note card. let's take one more look. >> we had a long discussion almost two weeks ago now in the best way to reduce the chances
6:04 pm
of miscalculation and misunderstanding is number 1. number 2, and a reliance we had with japan is purely defensive in nature. third, next question, who do i call on next? hang on. i've got my list here. hang on. i apologize. afp. thus far, it's tied to the hostages, there are a number of hostages being held by -- by the hamas and just yesterday we met with the vise president and security advisor and our american hostages as well. >> sean: my name is joe, say high to guest, high guest. it's clear, biden is not capable of taking unscripted questions, he's not able to communicate extemporaneously. her love for him to host my radio show was 750 stations.
6:05 pm
all extemporaneous for just one day. that would be entertaining. even with a huge amount of help from his staff, joe struggles in a massive way as per usual. that's predictable. take a look. >> prime minister is going to travel to north carolina tomorrow to visit that project. don't stay. we need your back and japan. they will probably try to keep our commitment under article five including the -- islands is unwavering. thank you. [ simultaneous talking ] >> why doesn't everybody holler at once? elect me, i'm in the 20th century. 21st century. not back then. >> sean: what happens when china reunites as they call it are has reunification with taiwan? anyway, every day a struggle for
6:06 pm
your president, especially on those rare occasions when the president is forced to work for more than a few mi now in contrast president trump is constantly working, communicating with the american people and today he was in the great state of georgia in atlanta where he answered a ton of questions on a variety of topics during an impromptu press conference. he then visited a local chick-fil-a where he was warmly greeted by the staff and customers and is very enthusiastic supporters and pro- trump organizer. and he also gave away free shakes to people that were there. take a look. >> i don't care what the media tells you, mr trump. 4:00 pm. >> i'm here, let me give you a hug. [ laughter ] [ cheering and applause ] >> sean: all while joe biden is scared to leave his bedroom without a giant cheat sheet telling him where to stand, what to say, who to answer questions, what to do when it's time to say
6:07 pm
goodbye. from president trump, he's having real conversations with americans every day. unlike biden, trump is not afraid to answer tough questions that's because trump's policies actually work and he's not a cognitive mess. but in the last three years, the current administration's policies, they have frankly pretty much wrecked the country from border to border. joe cannot run on his record because everything has gone catastrophically wrong and continues to get worse. for example today we found out that inflation is again going in the wrong direction. guess what, it was in transitory after all. meanwhile broad tensions between israel and iran are now escalating. this comes just a few short days after joe abandoned israel, put a knife in their back, just to appease the radical base that is now the modern democratic party. that is their party which at the end of the day is now helping
6:08 pm
the terrorist group hamas that literally attacked israel not lose the w war that they starte. his radical base insisting that biden leave our closest ally hanging out to dry as they battle ham terrorists and what is a literal war for israel's survival and there are americans still held hostage. nobody seems to talk about them. needless to say, biden cannot run on his record, he can't ask the question are you better off than you were four years ago, can't run on his intellect, certainly his personality is not that warm and charming, it's a little creepy at times. joe and his fellow democrats have resorted to pretty wild scare tactics. for example, i have a few of them, biden recently tweeted "trump doesn't trust women." and that he "despises latinos" and that he's trying to "rip away healthcare from americans and kill millions of americans." stop right there.
6:09 pm
he's trying to kill you. that's what joe biden is running on. biden also accused trump and maga of trying to take away our freedoms. also accusing trump of "exploding the national debt, threatening to cut social security, medicare, and passing a national ban on a woman's right to choose." none of this is even remotely true. joe is lying but that's all he has. and it gets worse. take a look. >> my predecessor and his maga friends. i love the language they used, they want to terminate the affordable care act. terminate. pool-mac. >> will guess what, killing americans by taking them off healthcare. >> take a look at the things they are rolling back. remember i said ages ago, you know, in their minds they want to bring slavery back. >> donald trump uses phrases
6:10 pm
like eviscerate the constitution, be at dictator on day one. >> if it's a trump reelection, zielinski has legitimate reason to be concerned. >> my senses donald trump would hang -- hands the keys over to putin. why fight when you can just get the keys from a new american president. >> report said if reelected trump will seek to retaliate. >> donald trump will sign a national abortion ban into law if he is elected president and republicans control the congress >> you built infrastructure on bringing high-tech manufacturing back to the united states on a clean energy revolution. that will all stop it for donald trump is reelected. >> do you believe of donald trump were elected next year that he would try to stay in office beyond a second term? he would never leave office? >> no question. >> you think he would try to stay in power forever? >> absolutely. >> sean: anyway, kill americans, bring slavery back, he's going to be a dictator.
6:11 pm
he said it on the show, yeah, i will be a dictator for one day on the border and bringing oil production back. that's all he said. after more than three years in office, biden has nothing to show other than a burning hatred for donald trump, now desperate will say he's trying to kill you. what about keep your dr, keep your plan, save $2500 per family per year, obama care, the promise. millions of you lost your plan, cluster dr, you pay 250% more in nearly half the country has one obama care exchange option. how's that working for you? the people on the left or so desperate, attacking trump. now for an arizona supreme court ruling that upholds a civil war era law upholding abortion. let not your heart be troubled, i can pretty much assure that will happen. trump opposes the law and this ruling. or you can believe joe's make
6:12 pm
pretend donald trump doesn't exist. and you know what, arizona's governor is a democrat. the states attorney general is a democrat. the state legislature is almost evenly divided. if democrat, you want to get rid of the law, will you have a chance right now to get rid of it and i would advise you, get rid of it. they would rather use it as a political tool ahead of november most politicians on the left do not actually care about making your life better. otherwise they would be screaming bloody murder about the clear and present danger that joe is creating at our border by aiding and abetting over 10 million illegal unvented immigrants that joe's allowed into the country from countries like china, russia, iran, syria, egypt and afghanistan. they only care about winning elections and holding onto power. and the proof is in the pudding. take a look at cities and towns, democrats have enjoyed one party rule for what, decades. they are the most violent, most
6:13 pm
disorganized, most expensive places in america. and in just three years under your president joe, the entire country has started to mirror all of that chaos. in 208 days, you have a golden opportunity to choose a different path forward. here with reaction, the host of -- tommy is fearless. there's no such thing as a fearful tommy. that does not exist. former clinton advisor and former white house position, texas congressman ronnie jackson. a lot to dig into tonight. tommy we begin with you, your reaction. joe biden, his appearance today i thought was embarrassing on many levels but very predictable. let's get your take. >> well first of all i think that they will be getting joe biden some smaller sunglasses now that you've pointed out the reflection. we know when we pointed out him stumbling up the big boy stairs he had to get little boy stairs
6:14 pm
so now i assume he will get smaller sunglasses to avoid that whole debacle because we know he's going to read off of a note card many more times and it's going to be on camera. but again, i've been saying this for so long, i think it's abundantly clear and becoming clearer each day that joe biden is not going to be the nominee. i believe it's going to be gavin newsom. i think all signs point in that direction. i think joe biden this week with his due don't lone forgiveness as well as him mulling over maybe taking an executive action on the border, i think that's his last ditch effort to convince the democrat party to keep him in that position. but i think the democrats are actively looking for his replacement and they are looking at california, which is also a god-awful mess, but at least the guy can speak without reading from a note card. but it like to contrast that because i'm so happy that you played donald trump today and him being in that chick-fil-a. i think his connection with the american people. you know, they have to do this for your mongering where donald trump wants to bring back slavery or donald trump will never leave office, but then
6:15 pm
when you actually see donald trump interacting with people, it becomes abundantly clear that he is the people's president. and when you see black women embracing the president in that way, oh boy, the leftist media is going to melt down over that one and we are going to start seeing it more and more, the more he's out there. that's what they want to keep them in the courtroom. but could think he's resilient and he's got a lot of energy so expect more of this from your former presidentnt hopefully your future president. >> sean: all right, market, you are the democrat on the panel. let's see, donald trump wants to kill americans, he wants to bring slavery back and he's going to and all abortion in america. you know that's complete and total adam shift. i know it, everybody knows it. what does that say about where their campaign is? does that ultimately work, just running on lies and negativity like that? >> will look, you know that campaigns have been hyperbolic for about maybe 200 years.
6:16 pm
so there's nothing new i think in campaigns going back and forth. the question is are we going to have a real debate about the serious issues, which the candidates will confront each other, put the hyperbolic stuff aside and tell us about their differences and policies. i'm a little less concerned about biden stumbling through reading cards then what he's saying about israel. >> sean: but let me ask you. there's hyperbole and then when you say that trump is going to kill americans, bring slavery back, he's not going to legalize or make abortion illegal in the country. it's beyond hyperbolic. that is just flat out lying. and i argue that they have to live because they can't run on anything positive. tell me what joe should run on that he did that he accomplished in the last four years. >> look, i think biden would run on his record for jobs, millions
6:17 pm
of jobs have been created, despite the inflation. >> sean: part-time illegal immigrant jobs? >> look, you asked me what he'd run on very positive -- [ simultaneous talking ] >> but look, i think that where i'm really concerned however is what he's got on israel and some of the foreign-policy turns he's taking. i think you shouldn't be pandering to the left on israel. american support israel and giving any credence to hamas just emboldens hamas and iran and that is counter to the most important fundamental of american policy goals of having peace in the world. so i'm very concerned about that. look, i think he has a positive campaign. i don't think these campaigns should use the type of hyperbole that really divides americans and that should be on both sides. stick to the issues, run some good campaigns. the voters don't pay much attention to that nonsense
6:18 pm
anyway. >> sean: well i will tell you this, he's put his own personal political ambition above standing against terror. maybe the most offensive thing he's done as president in the list to me is very long. ronnie jackson, your take on this. >> i will just say tomi is completely right. i've been saying this for a long time, he will not be the nominee, i can't see it happening. can you imagine what this guy will look like five years from now at the end of another term? i can't even imagine what condition he would be in based on where he's already at. cayou imagine this guy debating donald trump? it will be comical. >> sean: he never will. >> he won't do it but it would be a failure. >> sean: he never will. he's never going to debate trump >> sean: >> i heard somebody say the other day if you are looking at the performance of the biden administration over the last three and a half years and you are thinking about voting for this guy and giving him another term accu might be the one that needs a cognitive test at this
6:19 pm
particular point. i mean it's insane. all americans right now that have lived under donald trump and have now lived under joe biden's presidency, everyone knows that america, that your life, that everything that has surrounded you is so much better under donald trump and under joe biden. we need donald trump back. i mean the american people are sick of this, they can't deal with it anymore. it's going to get worse, we are going to get into a war overseas, our economy is dropping like a rock. i mean inflation is up three and a half percent like you said, we are borrowing $100,000 a second right now. i mean we will spend a trillion dollars paying our interest on our debt this year, which is more than our defense budget while china is just, you know, cranking out ships and missiles and all kinds of, you know, we are in trouble and this man has led us down a path that is almost nonrecoverable right now and if we get another four years, we will not survive this. this is the most important election of our lives. >> sean: let me ask you the
6:20 pm
tomi lahren question. she things it will be gavin, biden is out. i would argue that only happens if he has a very bad fall or a really unmitigated disaster in terms of a conquered of moment. you don't think he's going to be the candidate, who do you think it will be? -- cognitive moment -- >> they don't want joe biden but they are terrified of the box of rocks known as kamala harris. they don't want her there but what do you do when you are a party that everything you do revolves around identity politics and you are about to take the first person to be the black female president potentially. they have a real problem right now. are they really going to select a heterosexual white male? i mean the party of identity politics? i don't know. >> sean: unless there is a disaster, market, the last word on this, do you agree with tomi, is he the candidate? i think he is unless something disastrous happens. >> i agree with you, joe biden is the democratic nominee.
6:21 pm
he's got the delegates. that nomination is not going anywhere unless something happens to him or he says so, and he is running and i think that's the way this campaign is going to roll. donald trump against joe biden, the big rematch. >> sean: i hope you are right. i think we all agree. >> trump is going to crush it. >> sean: we can hope. we will know into hundred eight days. thank you all, we appreciate it. when we come back, joe biden, did he just admit his border policies are a failure? will will get an update. texas reacts. busy addition of hannity continues.

6:25 pm
[♪♪] >> sean: it has been almost two months since the house voted
6:26 pm
to impeach department of homeland security secretary for failure to comply with federal immigration laws and breaching the public trust. it appears senate democrats now are trying to stall the proceedings according to a new report. that's not going to sit well with republicans who are now gearing up to grind all legislative business to a screeching halt if democrats table to trial. over the weekend republican senators ted cruz and mike lee wrote an op-ed in the wall street journal saying it is "the senate's duty to put -- on trial. meanwhile the border crisis has spiraled so far out of control that biden himself is now hinting of possible executive action to try and stem the flow of his illegal immigrants now over 10 million and tens of thousands coming from hostile geopolitical foes. we've mentioned those countries many times. here with reaction, texas senator ted cruz. it is that bad.
6:27 pm
where's the rest of the republican caucus first of all on the issue of the house impeachment and what will the senate now do when that is handed over to the senate sometime next week? >> the house is going to deliver articles up in peteman early next week and under the senate rules when they do so the senate moves immediately into an impeachment trial. here's what should happen there under the constitution. this has happened 21 time. twenty-one times the house has delivered articles of impeachment to the senate. and four of those times the senate lacked jurisdiction. in one of them the person impeach was a senator and impeachment only lies against executive branch officials or judicial branch officials so they dismissed that for lack of jurisdiction. in three of them, the person was out of office, was no longer in office so it was dismissed as moot because there was no longer anything to do once they were out of office. and the remaining 17 instances, and all of them, 100 [
6:28 pm
inaudible ] of the time, the senate convened for a trial, the senate heard evidence, the senate made an adjudication and the senate decided guilty or not guilty. that is what the constitution prescribes. it's the senate's sole authority but also it's responsibility. next week chuck schumer and the democrats are planning to completely destroy the constitutions impeachment power of the senate and rather than hear any evidence simply to table the matter at the outset, to vote at the outset, we will not hear it at all. i will tell you, he's doing this for three reasons. number 1, he wants to prevent the house managers from presenting the evidence of what an absolute disaster biden and the democrats open borders is. number 2, he wants to stop a trial from being held publicly because his only defense is to hide and hope that the media covers up the people who are dying and the risks to american safety from biden's open borders. but number 3, chuck schumer is
6:29 pm
desperately trying to protect vulnerable senate democrats in states like montana and ohio and wisconsin and pennsylvania and nevada, to prevent them from having to vote guilty or not guilty. he's trying to dodge responsibility. if he does this it will permanently destroy the senate's authority to conduct impeachment trials. it will do permanent damage to the senate. >> sean: okay. you are in a race where schumer is now identified you as his number 1 target. you are getting the same bs rhetoric that donald trump is getting, that ted cruz like trump wants to kill americans and bring slavery back, wants to put an end to all abortion in america. none of which is true. but this is all they've got, senator, and they are going to hammer you with probably 1-$200 million in these types of ads. the money is flowing into your
6:30 pm
state because the call has gone out to do so. the question is, how do you best responond, how does trump best respond to what are just outright lies? they want to smear slander, besmirch, attack, lie. they can't run on their record, that's all they've got. what's the answer? >> look, the best way to respond to lies is with truth. if this record is about substance, we win. if it's about joe biden's or run just record, we win. if it's about our vision for america, low taxes, reasonable regulations, lots of jobs, protecting american families, standing with law enforcement, securing the border, keeping our families safe and protecting our constitutional rights, we win. you are right, the democrats, chuck schumer has named me as his number 1 target. chuck schumer and george soros will spend over $100 million in texas trying to beat me right now. they are flooding cash into the state and they are going to
6:31 pm
engage in lies, in smears. i'm not going to respond in kind. i'm not going to go into the gutter, i'm going to talk about my record versus the liberal democrat running against me but i will tell you, the only way we can do it, because the corporate media is corrupt, they are propagandists for the left wing, the only way we can do it is to raise the money to counteract the 100 million and so what we've been supported by his millions of your viewers, of patriots across america going to ted cruz.org and making a contribution, giving 25, 50, $100 to ted cruz.org and what is really helpful is so many people are signing up for what we call our liberty circle, where they sign up to give a recurring monthly contribution, ten dollars, 25, $50 at ted cruz.org. that is how we withstand marxists who are flooding money into the country. and listen, if you don't think texas is close, my last race i won by fewer than 200,000 votes.
6:32 pm
i won by less than 3 percent and so schumer is gambling. if he spend enough money he can gain 3 percent, he can flip texas. we are not going to let him do it but the way we are going to stop it is focusing on substance and truth and a better vision for america. >> sean: my only fear for you and for texas is guess what, if you take a u-haul from california to texas, you pay about $202,500. if you take it from texas to california, you are doing u-haul a favor, only paying 400. it tells you everything you need to know. you just have to hope the people from california that moved to texas did not bring their gavin newsom policies with them. all right, senator, we wish you luck, we appreciate you being with us. you are going to love this. when we come back, today's inflation report was so awful for the white house, even members of the liberal media mob , they could not even sugarcoat it. we will show, we will explain,

[♪♪] >> sean: biden white house kind of lies a lot. the border is secure, the border is closed. remember they promised inflation is only transitory? will they were either again lying or totally clueless on the economy as inflation now continues to rise. now had an even faster pace than was predicted. there will be no interest rate cut in the near term for sure. there will be no soft landing as they've been claiming. the new cpi numbers released this morning show that goods in march of this year cost 3.5% more. in other words it went up 3.5% year-over-year from last march and that year-over-year increase does mean that biden's inflation
6:38 pm
is continuing. wall street not particularly pleased about 1% of the value of each major stock index disappeared today. even joe's friends and the liberal media could not even spin that into a positive. new york times called it a political blow to biden. fake news cnn said the long predicted storm clouds in the economy may actually be forming and this is priceless. the conspiracy theory channel had to shut down biden's friend james, the guy that saved his candidacy back in 2020, when he was trying to claim that inflation is disinformation. the only problem is, the increase in inflation news broke just as he was saying it. this is priceless. take a look. >> so what we've got to do is make sure that people see the
6:39 pm
policies of the biden administration, how they affect their everyday lives and get them to see in his policies that which is real, not what they may here on social media. one of the focus group people talked about social media and the misrepresentation, disinformation, all of those things are out there, and that is a battle that we have to fight and we have to do a better job of fighting it more effectively. >> so i will validate that i think the disinformation out there is distorting the entire process. i think social media doesn't help but there's also a lack of validation that these voters feel and i'm going to bring in -- right now because we just got breaking news, the consumer price index increased at a faster than expected pace last month, a signal that inflation remains stubbornly high.
6:40 pm
>> sean: yeah, right in the middle of saying there's no inflation, yeah, we find out it's up 3.5% year-over-year. things are only getting worse. inflation overall is up about 20% since joe took office and you are suffering. here with reaction, foxbusiness post. welcome both of you, brian, start with you. you have to admit, the entertainment side of television kind of made me chuckle quite a bit, right in the middle of saying how great the economy is and inflation is, hoops. last month there was a 3.2% year-over-year increase, today it's 3.5%. not exactly going the way they said and not exactly transitory. >> yeah, i could chuckle a little bit more on what happened on the network there if it wasn't americans who are having to pay for it. this was a really bad report and here's why.
6:41 pm
there's no economically justifiable reason to bring down interest rates with this kind of inflation number, which means the housing market in america stays seized up. borrowing for a car stays high, credit card delinquencies keep going up. that's a bad news tale and that's not disinformation. that's a sick economics. that's a situation we are in right now and what i'm afraid of is the biden white house actually believes what james is saying and nobody with their hands on the levers of power in dc wants to actually fix this thing. >> sean: it's a good point but again, we've been lied to repeatedly luck we are lied to about the border. for example, the moms, the media, they were giddy with the jobs report on friday. you do a deeper dive and what did we learn, we learn that most of those jobs were part-time and/or going to foreigners.
6:42 pm
not exactly good news on that front either. >> yeah, well and the inflation, today we are just running so fast and furious. jim, before he was cut off, right before that he said inflation is now 40% less than it was when biden took office. that's exactly the opposite. when biden took office the inflation rate was 1.4%. the core rate right now is 3.8%. that's more than two times higher than it was when he took office. so they are completely reversing the truth. this is stuff that they are just barefaced lies about the economy that even their most loyal economist cannot get behind. so they are in really deep trouble, to lie to this extent. and by the way, we now have, because we still are operating under the trump tax code, we have this increase in revenue.
6:43 pm
they claim biden claims that the reason we have deficits is because of the trump tax code. that also is the exact opposite. we've got 48% more revenue now than we did when trump -- when biden took office and that's because of the trump tax code. so in fact we could probably have a balanced budget right now if it had not been for all of those trillions of dollars of spending that biden put in, and that's what's causing inflation and that's what's causing the deficits. >> sean: and you can't get away from americans now paying 39% more for goods and services than they were paying under trump and 60% of americans living paycheck to paycheck. is both of you know and report on every single day, americans are suffering. and then you look at the people that have to dip into their pensions anday a big penalty just to get bare necessities, or putting bare necessities on credit cards. none of it is good.
6:44 pm
anyway, david, brian, good to see you, we appreciate you both being on. when we come back, trump speaking about willis. we will tell you what he said when he was in georgia today, and we get an update reaction from the one and only jim jordan as we continue. [♪♪]

[♪♪] >> sean: former president donald trump was in atlanta today for a fundraiser. he was asked by reporters about the election interference case and fani willis and here's what he said. >> i think that case was totally discredited. it was a moneymaking scheme on behalf of of her and her lover. and i think the case has been totally discredited. it seems to be. we will see -- every legal
6:49 pm
scholar says it's a horrible thing but it's election interference. >> sean: fani willis asking the appeals court to deny the former presidents request to overturn the judges earlier decision to allow her to remain on the case. meanwhile fani willis maybe an additional legal trouble. according to a new report the doj has now uncovered inconsistencies in willis' use of federal grant money. and in washington the chairman of the house judiciary committee me -- committee and the oversight committee have threatened to hold merrick garland in contempt of congress after the geo jayde riviere's to turnover subpoenaed recordings of special council interviews with joe biden. here now with more, house judiciary committee chairman jim jordan. let's start with that last part first. merrick garland had until noon on monday to turnover the interview, the transcripts, the
6:50 pm
videos, whatever they had of robert hurr's interview with biden. he failed to comply by it. a guy named navarro is now spending four months in prison for contempt of congress. >> yeah, so never forget the facts here. the report said that joe biden knowingly kept and disclosed classified information. he said that the reason he did that, page 231, biden had strong motivations to ignore classified procedures because he was writing a book. a book for which he got paid $8 million. so we have motive, 8 million reasons why, we have motive, we have the elements of the crime being met, he knew the facts, he disclosed it and he kept that information, but he doesn't get charged because robert hurr says he's a forgetful old man. we think it's incumbent upon the justice department to give us all of that evidence. we would like to here the audiotapes and frankly i think the american people would like
6:51 pm
to know, six months before the most important election we have, who will our next commander-in-chief. >> sean: it's beyond that because it was said that joe biden willfully withheld these documents. they were found in, what, really eight separate locations but multiple locations within one location, depending on how you count it. but did not that report also say that joe biden told the ghostwriter i found some new materials down in my basement, let me read it to you? did that guy have a security clearance to have top-secret information read to him by the former vice president? >> by the way that same guy, we want to depose him to. that same guy tried to destroy key evidence after he found out the special council had been named. so joe biden met the elements of the crime, we have motive but he's not charged because he's a forgetful old man.
6:52 pm
but what's interesting here is in the last three presidential elections, there's only been three candidates. hillary clinton, president trump and president biden. all three had concerns, concerns were raised about how they dealt with classified information. but only one is being charged. joe biden was not charge, hillary clinton was not charged even though she destroyed 30,000 e-mails and was sending classified information over an unsecured server, she's not charged, but somehow the one guy who was actually president at the time, he gets charged. that's what so many americans find wrong because it is wrong. it's a double standard and that's not the way it's supposed to work in our great country. >> sean: so i talked earlier in my monolog tonight about, you know, how democrats can't run on their success or if you are better off than you were four years ago, and they are now resorting to, you know, radical rhetoric like donald trump is going to kill americans and bring slavery back and end all abortion in the country. that is because they are desperate. but on the other hand we have
6:53 pm
another issue here and that is okay, starting on monday, you've got this ridiculous case going back to 2015 and 16 involving stormy daniels. in that case the da in new york has not even identified what the felony is that they are actually charging trump with. clearly it's a biased judge, a jurisdiction not friendly to trump. norway dcb one, norwood fulton county be one. at what point do we say wait a minute, this is april, we have an election in november, why don't we let the american people decide, and how is it that the biden department of justice won't cooperate with you, but they are using every tool at their disposal to use the law to go after biden's chief opponent? how do you explain that? what does that say about the country? >> that's today's left. today's left controls the democrat party. they use this law fare to go after their political opponent but the good news is the
6:54 pm
american people see through it. trump's numbers continue to rise. they know fani willis, they note the cases are ridiculous, everyone knows it. it's why he's winning and all seven of the tossup states. the states to determine the election. winning in georgia, north carolina, pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, nevada, arizona and those of the states that decide the election. so that is the good news. i think we will have donald trump back in the white house because the country sees this for what it is and they appreciate what they had under president trump compared to what we've had with joe biden. >> sean: it's interesting, they arrest him, they mug shot him, they arraign him, they charge him, his poll numbers go up. you have to wonder. if he gets convicted in new york, to his poll numbers go up? so far he defies all conventional political gravity. it would not shock me. jim jordan, thank you. bird flu, found and discovered in a park in new york

>> sean: new yorkers are being warned to stay away from wildlife after several cases of bird flu were discovered at a park in new york city. matt finn joins us for the latest. i guess that means stay away from filthy pigeons. >> for starters the pigeons for sure. those cases a bird through discovered in manhattan's marcus garvey park and health experts are warning people in that area to steer clear of touching birds including dirty pigeons or their droppings. wild turkeys, of falcon and red tailed hawk tested positive for the virus in the park according to cbs. a chicken was also reportedly infected. over the past month the bird flu has been discovered in 12 flocks of birds in 7 different states. the majority in texas. cbc reported last week a person in texas tested positive for

bird flu only developing mild symptoms like eye redness. the person works with dairy cows the cbc says that case is the first time a cow presumably became infected with the bird flu. to make the cdc is recommending people avoid unprotected exposure to sick or dead animals including wild birds or poultry can't avoid unprotected exposure to animal droppings and don't prepare or eat uncooked food. now a bird flu vaccine already exists so if it came down to it there wouldn't be catch up like there was with covid. >> sean: matt finn thank you. that's all the time we have left. set your dvr never missed an episode. greg will put a smile on your face. have a great night.
