>> kimberly guilfoyle will respond. lou dobbs will join us in the studio. "hannity" starts right here, right now. >> sean: we'll connect the dots and expose the corrupt cabal that is the mainstream media in america and show just how biased buzz feed and the liberal media really is. that is tonight's opening monologue. the liberal all left media is in meltdown mode because donald trump put them on notice that he is not going to take their b.s. anymore. a prime example yesterday. take a look. >> it's all fake news. it's funny stuff. it didn't happen. and it was gotten by opponents of hours as you know because you reported it and so did many of the other people. it was a group of opponents who got together, sick people. and they put that together. i think it is a disgrace. that information that was false

and fake and it never happened got released to the public as far as bud's feed, which is a failing pile of the garbage, writing it? i think they are going to suffer the consequences, they already are. >> sean: the media's pretending to be shocked that the president-elect slammed buzzfeed a completely unfounded optic research file on president-elect trump. but here's what the media will not tell you example about them. it's nothing more bus feet but a political propaganda arm of the democratic party. in june, the web site terminated and advertising deal with the rnc because as their ceo said, "the term campaign is directly opposed to the freedoms of our employees in the united states and in the world." two days after they terminated that deal, the chairman hosted a $33,000 a $33,000 a ticket dnc fundraiser in new york city that presley up barack obama attended.

since 2004, he's contributed almost half a million dollars to democrats, including $2700 to hillary clinton in 2016. is that a fair balance? i don't think so. it should be no surprise that cnn and all these other people, buzzfeed, are standing by the decision to publish what amounts to fake news all in an attempt to smear the president-elect donald trump. take a look. >> i know this was not your intent, i know you long time. but you just published fake news. >> i think that's a really -- >> sean: why is not an unfair description? >> i think this was a real story about a real document, really being passed around. >> sean: chuck todd also mentioned they have direct ties to bus feet, even though he said there news divisions are quote

separate. they have made $400 million worth of investments in both feet. companies of course have deepened their advertising and content ties. what we are dealing with here is a giant, corrupt a swamp. and they are all interconnected. it all works together. almost in unison to advance their leftist agenda. also tonight, the media is in a frenzy over this exchange of the president-elect had with cnn and jim acosta yesterday. take a look. >> since you are attacking us, can you give us a question? mr. president-elect, you are attacking -- >> no, not you, not you. your organization is terrible. >> sir, sir. >> quiet. quiet. don't be rude. >> can you give us a question? >> i'm not going to give you a

question. you are fake news. >> sean: so the liberal press is crying foul over that press. they were totally silent when president obama attacked me and rush limbaugh and fox news all the time. for example, when you make comments like these. >> there is a reason few republicans, you hear them running up around about obamacare. good, affordable health care might seem like a threat to the freedom of the american people on fox news. it turns out it is working pretty well in the real world. i haven't turned on fox news or listened to conservative talk radio yet today, but i turned them on and off over these past seven and a half years to know i am not exaggerating in terms of their story. the problem is we got all these filters. and a look, if i watch fox news, i would vote for me either. right? you've got this screen, this fun house mirror to which people who

receive their information. >> sean: those are just a few examples. talk about a glaring double standard. do you know how and at times he hit me personally customer gives 15 times until somebody said stop talking about "hannity" ." former new york city mayor, this is so reminiscent of when you were mayor. you're laughing because it is true. i remember you would say, that is such a stupid question. >> or did you ever read history? or maybe you should get your college degree back. >> sean: you love it. and it was some of the most entertaining presses i've ever seen in my life. i thought this was a pretty big beat down for the whole country to see yesterday. >> this was a great thing he di did. and one of the things that should be mentioned as he pointed out, listen, i have the microphone and obviously the power to fight you back. but there are a lot of people that you hurt with this fake news that don't. if he doesn't fight back. >> sean: people like michael

cohen. his family. >> there is not more than one michael cohen in the world? the guys in america, he hasn't been to prague. >> sean: you want to know something funny, i wrote to michael, i asked him if he was in prague. remember the video i sent two of my song? this was so easy to verify. >> it was such damaging information that you had an obligation to try to verify it before the matter who it is. whether was hillary clinton, or barack obama, or donald trump. >> sean: i tweeted ben smith that night. i said then, i called michael cohen. it took two seconds. or texted him. whatever i did. i got a confirmation. i had never been in prague. >> i've had situations where they've done stories on me where they deliberately did not call me because he didn't want to put a quote in there that would be helpful to me to refute the story. i know what they do. i know the games they play.

it is refreshing and it is very good for our democracy that we have a president that is trying to get us back to a free press. >> the maca >> sean: michael goodwin of "the new york post," a very good writer, he said thay were hoping and if you look at e breathlessness and hysteria by which cnn was reporting this story, he said that they were hoping for political kill shot against trump. is this indicative of what is going to happen in the next 4-8 years post ? >> i don't think there is a kill shot. he is a great choice but, those were choices in his cabinet that would match any cabinet of some of our really great presidents. i think he is -- he knows exactly what he wants to accomplish. he cannot be intimidated. he is an honest man. they're not going to catch him in some kind of lie or something like that.

and he's got the courage to fight them back. the american people have caught onto it. the american people have now caught onto it. i think this is going to be very helpful. he may actually reestablish journalistic ethics. >> sean: the news busters, 49 times in a month. just the three networks said that the election was hacked. that is not true. the daily mail had a really tough headline today. the only in this story -- i think with every item in the trump agenda, every supreme court nominee, building a wall. obamacare being repealed, lowering taxes, they are going to do this on everything, right? he needs to be prepared for this. >> she needs to be prepared for it and he is prepared for it. you know what he went through

during the primary. he trained him for it. i saw donald trump yesterday. i was with him when he was preparing for it. when he got out there. he is completely in control. he was is completely in comman. that was a commander-in-chief. >> sean: it was fun to watch. let me move on. i've spent a lot of time on this program asking why we haven't done anything. let me put up a full screen about the major u.s. government cyber attacks that have taken place. this is since obama has been president. the joint strike fighter project of the pentagon. nasa, the department of energy. the postal service. who wants to hack into the postal service?

23 million americans. you have been brought in. this is what you do. speak a little old ladies have had their social security accounts opened up to them, they go to open their account, they get arrested. >> sean: so why do we care about russia? >> regular, normal people, it affects big companies. this is out of control. we have let our information gathering, we have let our offense get ahead of our defense. now we have to catch up. we can fix it if the government and private sector work together. that's my part. the private sector. the government, it has to devote tremendous resources to this. obama never did. the private sector has to devote tremendous resources to it. my job is going to be to coordinate bringing in private sector groups to meet with the president, not to give him advice, to give him information. to give him the information that he is going to need and his people will need about what is going on in the private sector.

if you didn't fix it in the private sector, you can get into government as a private sector. >> sean: ten years, wikileaks has been out there. is it fair to say that we have nobody to blame but ourselves at this point? everybody wants to blame putin. i blame putin, china, iran, but we are responsible to defend ourselves. >> we have not allowed defense to keep track with offense. offense has gotten ahead of defense. we use to keep valuable documents in the safes. and then we used to lock them. now those valuable documents are there and we didn't protect the them. and now we are protecting them but not the way we should. >> sean: mr. rare, good to see it. i'm glad you're going to be on that case. >> this is the passion of mine. i told you that. this is one of those things i want to do. it is not a solution, to find

the best possible solution we can find. >> sean: good to see you mr. mayor. tonight, on "hannity" ." >> it will be repeal and replace. it will be essentially simultaneously. >> sean: at his presser yesterday, president-elect donald trump promised to repeal and replace obamacare. they've taken the first steps on capitol hill to make that happen. we will check in with bill bennett later tonight. >> i don't feel like waiting a year or year and a half to start building. mexico and some form, there are many different forms, will reimburse us and they will reimburse us for the cost of this wall. >> sean: he's saying it loud and clear. mexico, ready or not, will pay for the wall. lou dobbs will react to that. hollywood and we will have

>> sean: >> life from america'ss headquarters. the major hurdle towards james mattis confirmation, which states pentagon chief must out of uniform be out of unifor. they will vote on the bill tomorrow. president obama awarding joe biden the highest civilian honor. the medal of freedom. an extraordinary man with an extraordinary career in public service. prior to becoming vice presiden vice president, mr. biden served

as a president of delaware for 36 years. now back to "hannity" ." >> we will be very proud of having to put forth in terms of health care. obamacare is a complete total disaster. it will be repeal, and replace, it will be essentially simultaneously. it will be various segments, you understand, but will most likely be on the same day or same week but probably the same day. it could be the same hour. obamacare is the democrats problem. we are going to take the problem off the shelves for them. >> sean: that was president-elect donald trump at yesterday's presser, promising his administration will finally keep their promise and repeal and replace obamacare and on

capitol hill, republican lawmakers already started to implement in that plan. passing a budget read joe's solution earlier today that will be crucial in repealing the so-called affordable care act. president-elect donald trump praised the senate, tweeting... meanwhile, house speaker paul ryan had this to say earlier today. >> i do hope and believe that some of this can and should be bipartisan. but if people are going to be so partisan and it's so ideological, to try and cling to the failure of obamacare which is doing damage in people's lives, then shame on that. but we've got a job to do and our job is to use every tool at our disposal to fix this problem before it gets worse. >> sean: joining us now with reaction, bill bennett is with us. was it a mistake, i was shocked when paul ryan said about a week and a half ago, we will do it sometime this year, meaning the

replacement part. when you repeal it, don't you have to replace it? and should they have had a plan in place already? >> yeah, they should. the president is warning us right here. people attribute the greatest line of shakespeare advice is to thine own self be true. it is not the best piece of advice, is not even accurate. the best piece of advice shakespeare gave is readiness is all. what's most important is having a plan that is ready. it takes a little more time, that's okay with me. we've got to avoid the obama mistakes, sean. we know what they were. don't lie. do not lie. excuse me, do you want to say something? >> sean: we know what the lies were. we didn't save on average $2500 per family, the cost went up $5400, not including 2017 increases. to me it is simple. you've gotta have the the things that trump promised on the

campaign trail. portability, it has to handle pre-existing conditions. those people cannot be pushed out of the possibility of getting insurance. but then there should be free factors. catastrophic care as rand paul told me, it's illegal to buy it. it is a great idea for young people. secondly, doctors, i know this guy, in wichita, kansas. who got a cooperative. people can get all the care they want short of surgery. and sell that much cheaper rates. and third, health savings accounts. the answer is already been there. they just got to pull it together, right? >> yeah, let me just do the political cautions again, though. don't lie, overpromise, as obama did, don't write a 2,000 page bill. i think you can agree with that. going back to the ryan, and, if you can get a democrat or two, some people in the house, do it. it would be great not to repeat

in not having an republicans like the democrats did. i predict to you, whatever the pace it is, whatever he does now, is going to pick up once my friend dr. tom price is appointed head of hhs. once that happens, this thing is going to go very quickly. >> sean: do we have to increase the benefits and the lower the cost? look, we are both conservative. don't we burn leave in the free market? and at the end idea that all these big insurers, blue cross blue shield, couldn't make any e forcing young people to buy plans that they can afford and didn't need all in an effort to fund the sick, disable disabled and elderly? >> as conservatives, we are not utopians. we don't say this is going to be the land of perfect for everybody. we are going to make it better, a lot more affordable, we're going to put people back in

charge of their own health. part of the reason the obama thing fell is not just the increase cost but all of the line, the comments, all the things which turned out not to be true. expectations were so high they were bound to be dashed. there is a lot more sensible route on the way. >> sean: let's say you are young, generally healthy, most people tend to get sicker in their older years. that's just a fact. but if you're young and healthy, you get a catastrophic plan with say a $5,000 deductible that also includes a yearly checkup. get that deal. now, as long as you stay healthy, you don't need to pay that $5,000 deductible god forbid you get cancer. god forbid you have a heart attack at a young age or have a bad accident. everything is then covered right after you pay that deductible. that should be appealing to any young healthy person. right? >> i think so. i think that's right, yes.

>> sean: well, that's illegal now. >> i know. it's illegal and it doesn't make sense and thus it has turned away people from the market and has turned away exactly the people you want into this market. they become some of the vigorous critics. of the obamacare plan. but i would rather be a little later, maybe you and i differ on this, be more ready, have all the eyes dotted and tees crosse crossed. we talk about this all the time. he has a doctor, he is smart, he has studied this and he knows it. so i think if it is a little slower, sean, up until the time of his confirmation, be ready and to get it right. >> sean: i agreed you've got to get it right but it is kind of shocking is rick santorum said, i know they have nine plans, i know they're all kind of basically the same, similar elements. it's a little shocking at this late date that they haven't rallied around one particular plan customer isn't it?

>> i wish they had to, but is it extremely complicated, you know how many moving parts it is. i would rather wait a couple months to get it right. i hope not too, but if they get it wrong sean, you know how bad it will be. it will be really, really bad. >> sean: dr. bill bennett, thank you very much. coming up next on "hannity." >> i don't feel like waiting a year and a year and have to start building. mexico, in some form, and their many different forms, we will reimburse us and they will reimburse us for the cost of the wall. >> sean: president-elect trump says mexico will be paying for the border wall but he doesn't expect a check to be written. i've got the tape to prove it. but wait till you hear what the mexican president is now saying. lou dobbs has a reaction tonight. plus liberal hollywood snowflakes are losing their minds, their collective meltdown. we have kimberly guilfoyle, eric bolling will weigh in and

ainsley earhardt. all weighing in later tonight. c'mon in, pop pop! happy birthday! i survived a heart attack. i'm doing all i can to keep from having another one. and i'm taking brilinta. for people who've been hospitalized for a heart attack. i take brilinta with a baby aspirin. no more than one hundred milligrams as it affects how well it works. brilinta helps keep my platelets from sticking together and forming a clot. brilinta reduced the chance of another heart attack. or dying from one. it worked better than plavix. don't stop taking brilinta

without talking to your doctor since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. don't take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. talk to your doctor about brilinta. i'm doing all i can. that includes brilinta. if you can't afford your medication, astra zeneca may be able to help.

>> i could wait about a year and a half until we finish our negotiations with mexico, which will start immediately after we get to office. but i don't want to wait. i don't feel like waiting a year or a year and a half to start building. mexico, and some form, and there are many different forms, will reimburse us and they will reimburse us for the cost of the wall. by the way, mexico has been so

nice. so nice. i respect the government of mexico. i respect the people of mexico. i love the people of mexico. i don't blame them for what has happened. i don't blame them for taking advantage of the united states. what i say is we should not have allowed that to happen. it is not going to happen anymore. >> sean: at yesterday's press conference, president-elect donald trump said that mexico will in fact be paying for the wall one way or the other. but the president of mexico said, that's not really happening. [speaking spanish]. >> sean: lou dobbs is back with us. at as the president of mexico, y are dying to negotiate with trunks. is it because carrier pulled

out, chrysler pulled out, and many other corporations now seeing a better business environment in america? >> to his credit, he saw what was coming. speaking with donald trump, the first national leader to do so, it was a big moment. remember, we have the sense that they are going to be able to work together. and then he he goes up because domestically, he upset some people. now he sees these companies changing as you say. and he is having a fit. that is where they drive their capital, that $60 billion a year deficit, trade deficit with mexico. it's a surplus for them. it is a big deal. >> sean: look at this. this is "the wall street journal" ." peso enters a free fall. is it because the burdensome regulations are leaving, money is coming back, and we are going to go from one of the highest

corporate taxes to one of the lowest in the industrialized world. >> mexico has become an if you will, a put on donald trump. he is the man who is leading this country in a direction that everybody, including wall street and goldman sachs people were saying, trump can do this. he can't do anything. it's just talk. blah blah. suddenly, this national nationalism that has been created by donald trump this rational economic policy, you've got corporation saying wait a minute. he can load the tax rate. he can cut tax regulation. at middle-class jobs, cheap labor markets, like mexico. and he will effectively jawbone anybody doesn't mind. whether your ford, toyota, a softbank.

>> sean: we are going to build here in michigan. you know why? because 95 million americans are out of the labor force. 43 million in poverty. 53 million on food stamps. >> our middle class, which is the pride of this nation, historically, culturally, in every way. since 1971 has been shrinking and shrinking and shrinking and the reality is, this is about to be reversed by -- >> sean: i had a fight with who actually was the mexican president, vicente fox. he said trump come out, trump i am not going to pay for that leap wall. see, mexico is not going to pay for the wall. during one of the many town halls i did with trump, a number

of times i would ask him, you don't expect him to write a check, do you? watch. >> mexico will pay for the wall. >> >> sean: they are not going o write you a check. how are you going to make them them -- >> they are killing us at the border. they are killing us on trade. we have a trade deficit with mexico, close to $60 billion a year. right there you can build a wall because the fraction of the wall is a fraction of that. it's right there. >> sean: he said it from the beginning but people are trying to say he flopped. >> david are the same left-wing. the truth is, he means exactly what he is saying. he identifies these problems, these issues that are most important to americans, working men and women, families, middle-class, he is already doing some thing about it. we've got another week before he takes the open office.

>> sean: california's governor. he aspires to the presidency like corey booker does. it's so clear and obvious. >> they have about an even chance. >> sean: will stop trump's wall with environmental lawsuit lawsuits. will trump eliminate a lot of those regulations, will about california state regulations customer >> another surprise. he is already made very clear, new they are capricious because he's already said, they are politically motivated. it's not about the environments, i think he is just taking that issue off the table. >> sean: you think legally that will impact any judicial decision? >> i am not a liar but i've got to tell you, it stinks like hell. >> sean: if it walks like a duck, quacks like a political duck, it is a duck.

>> donald trump seems to be a winner. >> sean: you seem like a very happy business guy at this point. >> i am one happy american. this republic just got saved. i am thrilled. >> sean: i did not like the trajectory. good to see. fox business, every night at 7:00 p.m. coming up next on "hannity." >> i do know how we are going to take four years of the this. >> sean: up next, we will get reaction from kimberly guilfoyle, eric bollin eric bolling, and then ivanka trump and her husband under fir fire. ivanka announced she was stepping down from the company. we will get a report from ainsley earhardt, she's here to discuss that. and more, straight ahead.

>> sean: this issue, talked a lot about the role of don, jr., and erica, yesterday. was talked about. >> they are going to the run the operations here in the united states. all of the companies that are overseas, they are no longer going to do business with them. at least for the next four years. >> sean: it's a big step for him. i was kidding around yesterday with michael cohen, $2 billion, some guy in dubai. i said, can you give him my number? i'm interested in that deal myself. there really is a sacrifice. legally he does not have to recuse himself from his business. but he's doing it to avoid any appearance of impropriety. >> he doesn't want there to be a conflict of interest. control the businesses, he is moving to d.c., his wife is

particularly yesterday, any slight appearance of impropriety would be blown out of proportion. it seems like they are trying to nip that in the blood which i think ultimately will pay dividends for them. >> they don't need that money. they're not taking a salary. to most people, the salary of the president, which is $500,000? 300,000 is a lot of money. he's not taking that salary because he just wants to make sure he doesn't want negative press about it. >> sean: ainsley earhardt, thank you. coming up next, we need your help as always. a very important question of the day. your input desperately needed. straight ahead. tech: at safelite, we know how busy your life can be.
