♪ >> sean: a great show. many thanks to our friends on "the five." welcome to "hannity." newt gingrich, judge jeanine pirro, dr. gina loudon, maria bartiromo, austan goolsbee and herman cain are all guests joining us tonight. the destroy-trump-media -- it continues to breathlessly push the bizarre tinfoil hat conspiracy. russia, collusion, no evidence do they have, whatsoever. this has now become the biggest scandal in the history of the media and its country. it's time to get to the truth. we got to set the record straight. nobody else in the media will do it and that is tonight's unique -- in terms of media -- openingit monologue. the destroy-trump-media absolutely refuses to follow the

facts when it comes to the baseless claims of president colluding with the russians. that's because these very radical, rigid ideologues do not care about telling you, the america people, the truth.y the main objective is to smear and besmirch president trump no matter what actual evidence exists or doesn't exist or what it shows. these purveyors of very fake news are perfectly happy peddling their lives as long as it inflicts damage on president trump or those close to him. they are willing to hyperventilate and breathlessly report. create a feeding frenzy. and push manufactured scandal after scandal because the end goal and what this country is now up against is very simple here. the propaganda destroy-trump-media -- they want to president trump to fail and they want him out and gone. they want him impeached. this russia conspiracy theory narrative is a perfect example.

the media has been running with this lie. with no evidence. for months and months and months. they haveo nothing. the media won't tell you that because they are hoping upon hope that their endless lies may eventually come to some smidgen of truth or they will just make it up.t as we've been showing you, this narrative has been crumbling ins front of their faces but they refused to let it go. it is time for a reality check and i hope you share it with your friends. we will do the media's job for them and lay out truth andop facts. let's start with former obama cia director, john brennan testifying on capitol hill. and admitting no evidence of collusion. watch this. >> i am aware of information with intelligence that revealed contacts and interactions between russian officials and u.s. persons involved in the trump campaign. that i was concerned about

because of known russian efforts to support such individuals. and it raised questions in my mind, again, whether or not the russians were able to gain the cooperation of those individuals. i don't know whether or not such collusion -- that's your term -- such collusion existed. i don't know.do i know there was a sufficient basis of information and intelligence that required further investigation by the bureau to determine whether or not u.s. persons were actively conspiring, colluding with russian officials. >> sean: after all these months, no evidence of collusion? that was not the only major revelation from the former director. when asked about the propaganda media reporting the president trump shared classified information in the oval office, he admitted the same thing. watch this. >> i shared classifiedsi

information with the russians when i was in the cia. on a routine basis, they share on information terrorism matters. it doesn't mean it becomes unclassified. it means it retains the classification but only to russia and other partners. that in and of itself is not unprecedented. if the reports in the press are true that mr. trump decided to spontaneously share some intelligence with the russians, i think he would have basically violated two protocols. >> sean: we also havevin: president obama's former of national intelligence, james clapper, back in march -- on the all-important meet the press show. saying the same thing. watch this. >> we did not include any evidence in our report. when i say "our," that's nsa, fbi, and cia with my office, the director of national intelligence, that had

anything -- any reflection of collusion between members of the trump campaign and the russians. there was no evidence of that in our report. >> but does it exist? >> not to my knowledge. >> sean: key democrats -- this is my favorite -- maxine waters, the one leading voices tots impeach president trump?at they've all had to admit and come clean and say the same thing. and they've seen no evidence of russian collusion. watch this. >> the last time we spoke, i asked if you'd actually seen evidence of collusion between the trump campaign and the russians and you said to me "not at this time." has anything changed since we spoke last? >> no, it hasn't. >> just to be clear -- there hasn't been evidence, right? >> no, it has not been. >> sean: maxine waters and diane feinstein, what's alarming about all this -- this is why it's the biggest media scandal of our republic.g

all the facts we laid out to you have been completely ignored byt the destroy-trump-media. these people are impervious to the truth. they avoid it like the plague. they would rather push a total, complete fabrication made up conspiracy theory and that's what's going on in the country right now. a version of insanity has broken out. look at how the media has pushed this false narrative with no evidence. >> wouldn't it be nice -- if it was completely, totally,en absolutely impossible to suspect that vladimir putin orchestrated what happened in syria this week. so thatsp his friend in the

white house could have a big night with missiles and all of the praise he's picked up over the last 24 hours? t wouldn't it be so nice if you couldn't even in your wildest dreams imagine a scenario like that? >> i will say it again, this russian connection just keeps building. you have to wonder if trump himself isn't worried about swirling around under the covers. >> the fbi investigation, a potential link between individuals associated with the trump campaign and the russian government. >> what it means is that a federal judge found that peoplem in the trump organization where colluding with the russians. >> sean: this is now beyond disgraceful. the same media that wikileaks proved colluded with a hillary clinton campaign.wi and they are willing to go so off the deep end and push these ridiculous theories that again, we have no evidence for.di it's been proven false. this is the question i want to ask tonight.it president obama and the democrats are so concerned about russian meddling. why did they wait until after president trump was elected to make such a big deal about it? if it was so alarming and so

egregious in such a major threat to our democracy, don't you think they should have said something before the election? according to mike morell, it turns out the president obama did nothing to stop russian interference. there was testimony out there that said they did it in previous elections and they will do it in future elections. take a look. >> what struck me, charlie, the u.s. government was concernedle enough last summer about russian interference in the election that they had the cia director make contact with his russian counterpart and tell them to stop. the russians clearly didn't. my question is, what does the obama administration do after that, after they learned that the warning has fallen on deaf ears? >> it appears they did nothing. >> sean: let me say this. if it turns out that someone from inside the dnc, for example, somebody that supported bernie sanders or was frustrated about collusion and corruption

and denial of a free and open election process -- as it relates to the primary with hillary clinton -- if something like that happen, wouldn't that blow the entire russian collusion theory out the window? is that not something they may be afraid of?co joining us now, newt gingrich. sorry about the long introduction. i just want your general thoughts here. if there's ever evidence, i'm willing to look at it. when everyone says no evidence, no evidence and it's gone off of thousands of tv hours -- what do you think about it? >> this is an attack media, not a news media.>> this is a group of people that get up in the morning and know that trump has done something horrible. they just don't know what it is yet. anything that could hurt trump gets exaggerated and it becomes somebody talked to somebody who might someday know something. if you look at the number of "new york times" and

"washington post" stories, itt all begins with "unknown sources told us." you go down this road and what is the unnamed sources say? this gray line. he said to brennan yesterday, you're concerned about people's significance. having conversation with the russians that might lead to a relationship. a then quoted the obama conversation where he said after the election, i will really be available to do better things. that's great, i'm going to tell vladimir. doesn't that count? that's between two heads of state. the question then is, let me get this straight. if trump said something to the foreign minister, that would be bad. but if in effect, obama promises to sell out after the election to the russian president, that's okay? >> sean: let's walk through

the scenario where maybe in the trump campaign someone said to>> vladimir, "if you have anything, release it?" >> i am not going to start -- i doubt it very much anyone fromas the trump campaign ever talked to vladimir. >> sean: or the russians.tr >> there are people and this is part of what this whole story is about. there are people out there who are self designated important people. my question is, do they ever get in trump tower?ke does trump ever know who they are? c you have a huge campaign. lemme take the contrast. i cannot understand -- i'm

perfectly happy to have an investigation of russian influence in the american government. but then i want to see the former campaign chairman's brother, a registered agent for a russian bank. bill clinton's $500,000 speech paid by a russian speech. >> sean: the uranium -- >> i was going to get to it. >> sean: you are the only one that can beat me up on this. >> my question is, why are the republicans afraidhi to look at both sides of this? let's talk about relationships. when you discover suddenly there is this giant mountain of clinton relationships with the russians. we may or may not have some smoke over here but for someh reason, the republicans -- the republicans are going after trump because they are partisan. why would the republicans that passed all the sort of information and what does collusion mean?ca what kind of collusion with their between the campaign manager's brother, the russians, and the clinton campaign? >> sean: obama tried to unseat prime minister netanyahu. not one of the media outlets with democrats care.ea

i have an important question about what the president should do with his foreign trip. more with newt gingrich after the break. and coming up next... >> you see something like whatth happened two days ago, you see how important it is to win this fight. >> sean: president trump in brussels earlier today talking about defeating terrorism and later, the investigation continues into the deadly terrorist attack at a concert in manchester, england, targeting teenagers. the manchester bomber spent three weeks in libya before the deadly terrorist attack. we will check in with judge jeanine pirro, gina loudon, and also... the manchester bomber spent three weeks in libya before the deadly terrorist attack. we will check in with judge jeanine pirro, >> i am drafting an article of impeachment. >> sean: snowflake democratic congressman al green is drafting documents for impeachment. all up next. documents for

as a girl who grew up in the church, she is amazingly excited by it. >> sean: i want to talk about this foreign trip. i want to talk about the limited legislative days left. to get health care done. i think have to get the economyy done and at least the wall funded. those three things will be pivotal in 2018. >> they ought to try to get infrastructure. the number one goal of the trump presidency at home has to be jobs. you have to fix the health system so it's not killing jobs. the tax codes so it's not killing jobs and you need anes infrastructure bill. if you ask my advice, those would be the three goals. let's start with the trip. that's phenomenal. he will probably see 85 liters by the time the trip is over. he had 58 in riyadh, saudi arabia alone. the biggest gathering of sunni leadership. the speech was so powerful. equivalent of reagan's west minister speech.

i think people will look back on this and say what a historic turning point. first president ever to go straight from riyadh, saudi arabia to jerusalem, tel aviv. bringing messages from the saudis, encouraging that they may open up -- >> sean: airspace opened up for the first time. >> very much donald trump like. i'm actually very surprised how intensely serious he is about the opportunity to work his way through and find a deal. >> sean: when he characterized conflict of battle, good versus evil and drive them out? drive them out of your mosques, your places of worship.

drive them into the ground basically. he said it in that environment. it was saudi arabia. over 50 arab leaders -- to me, it was such a tale of two presidents when you compare to the apology tour. >> he also talks about the role of women. we have to seize the oppression of women. he is talking to the leadership of the saudi world and they are taking it. they are applauding it. i think the king spent two and half days with him.ng >> sean: do you know him?lf >> i've met him but i don't know him. trump knows him now because they literally spent two and a half days together. probably longer than all american presidents have spent with a saudi king. >> sean: health care bill has to get through the senate, congress. i think regulation and energy -- regulation reform, opening up energy independence is key.. for the president, it's so important to keep his promises. there's this distraction i talked about in the last

segment. how do you get back? >> the most interesting thing about the trump presidency this year is to look at thek? extraordinary discipline, organization, planning. compared to the chaos in washington. i hope he's going to come back here with a determination to start running the domestic operations with the same seriousness that he runs the foreign operation. if you aren't talking about jobs and health reform and infrastructure, a better tax system, why are you saying it?y this is a whole different approach. i'm hoping the president is looking at this extraordinary historic achievement and drawing some conclusions about how he's going to changeg the whole operation here at home. second. all of their messaging should be positive and on the things they are trying to get done. the positive comes with an edge to it.

>> yes to continue to reform it. there are a series of mistakes being made. there 500 positions that we t normally confirm in the senate. if you guys continue to fill up and block them, the president is just going to fill them. a very senior, thoughtful guy to give that speech -- that's a real signal to the democrats. we cannot allow -- the department of labor just made a decision that was crazy, it was done by the obama people who are still there. department of education, things going on -- >> sean: they've got to go. great to see you in studio. >> it's fun to be back. >> sean: the book is called "understanding trump," amazon.com and bookstores soon. up next, to go u.s. defense officials tell fox news that the manchester bomber spent three weeks in libya before the deadly terrorist attack.

this massacre spent three weeks in libya just days before the attack and according to reports -- also likely visited syria. the u.k. home security said that she believes the terrorist did not act alone. this is why we and the trump administration have talked a lot about implementing the idea ofee extreme vetting. joining us now, jeanine pirro and gina loudon. good to see you both. okay.l i don't understand. how is it is sunday comes from a country with what i call a clash of cultures, where they literally believe men should tell women how to dress and men should tell women if they can go on an airplane and travel or leave the house without a male k relative, where gays and lesbians are killed, where

christians and jews are persecuted, we need to understand -- do you believe that? do you want to proselytize us or join our family? >> sean, that's exactly the issue. do you believe in sharia law and if you believe in that -- that means it's inconsistent with the constitution. you don't believe in free speech, and women's rights. in gays rights. we are willing to allow people that we know, individuals --w actually, we don't know who they are, to come here. stick to their own rules and then say to you, if they kill us, this is hogwash, sean. what's happening in the u.k. --. >> sean: you're xenophobic. homophobic. racist. >> i am not!. i am none of those things. >> sean: i know you're not. >> and neither are you. we expect these people to integrate. one of the issues is -- and assimilate. one of the issues that they don't want to. now we have people in congresshe saying they are de facto segregated from the rest of us.

that we have to understand that they are angry with us.ng we let them in the country. >> sean: it makes zero sense to me that people take this position. to me, they are gambling with the lives of the american people because they want to be so politically correct. how do we know that they're not bringing those values with them? how do you ascertain what is in somebody's heart? >> you have to ask those questions, sean. so far the leftist media and political body refuses to actually even have themp conversation. they can't have an honest enough conversation to even talk about -- for example, what's wrong with taking courses like western civilization. what's wrong with asking people to learn english? what's wrong with people looking at concentrated centers of

islamic activity and saying hey, we have increased crime in those areas and something needs to be done like that. those conversations are politically incorrect and they won't have them. >> sean: it may be hard for people to understand. even great britain has over 8080 sharia courts. a separate and apart from the british legal system. the idea that what has happened in europe can't happen herer is absurd. f i'm not even talking about germany or belgium or france. >> we are not being honest at all and this whole episode, sean. y like anyone else who has ever been to therapy -- if you are going to get better, you have to first consider having a really honest, open-minded conversation. we don't. o we don't talk about things like the research center who investigated and found that sometimes 60% of certain areas of islam believe that suicide bombers are justified. until we have these hardcore conversations, we can come to any sort of rectifyingn situation.

>> in addition to the conversation, the whole paradigm of law enforcement has toce change. we know that the imam from this man's mosque and his neighbors spoke out -- we know he's been to the two countries, libya and syria that are the strongholds of the islamic state and his brother is an member ofli the islamic state. this is a redo of the boston bombers. law enforcement has to now change their paradigm as to what they are going to look at. you have to follow social media. >> sean: one last point. the fact that the president said get rid of them. out.oi >> drive them out. >> sean: thank you both. up next on this busy news night tonight, right here onon "hannity"... >> that budget that trump has presented is a grotesquely immoral budget. it is horrific. >> sean: democrats, typical, predictable scare tactics to attack the president's budget. maria bartiromo and austan goolsbee join us. also tonight...

>> i have crafted articles of impeachment. >> sean: snowflake democratic congressman al green says he is drafting articles of impeachment. really, for what? herman cain is here with reaction. more as we continue on "hannity." what? herman cain is here with reaction. i noticed it as soon as we moved into the new house. ♪ a lot of people have vertical blinds. well, if a lot of people jumped off a bridge, would you? you hungry? i'm okay right -- i'm... i'm becoming my, uh, mother. it's been hard, but some of the stuff he says is actually pretty helpful. pumpkin, bundling our home and auto insurance is a good deal! like buying in bulk! that's fun, right? progressive can't protect you from becoming your parents, but we can protect your home and auto.

>> sean: welcome back to

"hannity." president trump's budget was unveiled and democrats wasted no time spreading the predictable scare tactics.s. watch this. >> that budget that trump has presented is a grotesquely immoral budget. it is a horrific budget. senior citizens will lose perhaps the one nutritious meal a day they get, the meals on wheels program. >> when you add it all up, the trump budget is a comic book villain bad budget. the trump budget takes a sledgehammer to the middle class and working americans. lavishes tax breaks on the very wealthy and imagines all of the deficit problems away with fantasy math. >> it's not an overstatement to say that some children will die because of this. speak of this administration and republicans in congress are mounting an onslaught against the needs of children and people with disabilities. women and seniors.

>> i've never seen anything as hateful and abominable as this. >> sean: yes, they want to kill your children. they really do. joining us, maria bartiromo and former obama economic advisor that helped cause the economic mess, austan goolsbee. let me go to maria first, so i can give my audience some real information. obama once said "their plan is to dirty air and water." now children are going to die. >> it's not true. their response is so dramatic. what's really getting me angry is that there's no acknowledgment about obamacare imploding. we heard from blue cross blue shield kansas city pulling out of obamacare. we have unitedhealth. aetna. anthem.

all pulling out because they are losing hundreds of millions of dollars on this plan. obamacare is imploding. in terms of the budget, everybody knows the right and left -- these entitlement programs -- they are goinge broke. this is an effort the president has put forth in terms of slowing down the growth of medicaid. he takes social security medicare off the table -- >> sean: the rate of increase or real, a small cut? >> it's a reduction in the growth of suspending a plan. >> sean: increased spending. no cut. they are reducing the rate of growth. >> sean: that's not what you are hearing on the left. all these lies and painting of a picture that really is not true. it's really unfortunate that tho two sides cannot come together and get work done which is what the people voted for. >> sean: austan, i always quote this and you hate it because it's true. your guy, buddy, friend, former president obama -- former -- he

would say, republicans -- $9 trillion in debt. it's irresponsible. unpatriotic. well, he accumulated more debt than every other president before him combined. is reducing the rate of growth -- is that going to kill children? do you agree with the hyperbole from all your friends on the left? >> look. you know it's not my way to get into big emotional fields. come on. >> sean: you have no emotion anyway? you have emotions when you take my money. go ahead. >> [laughs] if you take medicaid, the average cost of a private room in a nursing home is more than $90,000 a year. that's up $17,000 over the last ten years. let's say that it increases at the same rate -- over the next

ten years. it is not going to help grandma, who doesn't have assets and is using medicaid to pay her t nursing home that all we did is slow the rate of growth. >> sean: oh. okay. so you're still getting an increase. you need to make an image of president trump with her grandmother in a wheelchair and president trump is throwing her over the cliff. that's what you are saying. >> i know what you are talking about. that's not what we should say. >> sean: i hate when you are reasonable and taking on your own party's lies. back to maria. >> i would ask austan -- really, you know and have set for a long time that these programs are going broke. what's the solution? should we not slow down the growth and spending? obviously the president wouldn't touch social security and medicare, but changes are coming.

these programs are going broke. what's the answer, austan? >> i think first, donald trump is going to have to deal with the blowback. he didn't just promise not to touch medicare and social security. he specifically made a core promise not to touch medicaid. his own people are going to get on him about what he's doing here. which is to cut almost g a trillion dollars out of what was legally allocated. d >> austan, what's the alternative? >> what has to happen is not target just one thing. you have to look at the entire budget, then you shouldn't lose $5 trillion on the tax side and try to make up for it by cutting on$5 medicaid. you should forgo the high income tax cuts so you don't have to make those cuts. >> why did you average economic growth over the obama years? you didn't have tax reform.

everybody believes that tax reform is going to move the needle on economic growth. you haven't answer the question. should he have cutut social security and medicare?e? >> he should not cut those things.. he should cut his $5 trillion tax cut. get rid of that before you cut social security, medicare, and medicaid. >> sean: i love you, austan. say high to your best friend. i don't know how she puts up with you. up next, tonight on this busy "hannity..." >> the presidency itself is in question. our friends around the world, in question. trust in the president himself, in question. beyond in question. >> sean: [kazoo noise] mainstream media continues to question the legitimacy of trump's presidency. you don't want to miss it. and also tonight... >> i am currently drafting articles of impeachment. >> sean: democratic congressman al green saying he is drafting articles of impeachment. why? we will find out. i'm sure it's really important. herman cain is with us. .

>> sean: democratic congressman al green saying he is drafting articles of impeachment. why? we will find out. i'm sure it's really important. herman cain is with us constipated? trust #1 doctor recommended dulcolax. use dulcolax tablets for gentle dependable relief. suppositories for relief in minutes. and dulcoease for comfortable relief of hard stools. dulcolax. designed for dependable relief. tand, our adulte children are here. so, we save by using tide. which means we use less. three generations of clothes cleaned in one wash. those are moms. anybody seen my pants? nothing cleans better. put those on dad! it's got to be tide.

>> sean: welcome back to "hannity." and welcome to our very, very, very fake news roundup. the president's patriotism, faith, and suggesting the show "house of cards" is tame compared to the white house. >> did you imagine there would come a time that would make the plot lines of your show seem tame? >> sean: these people are insane. the mainstream media trying to destroy the presidency of donald trump, democratic congressman al green, articles of impeachment. watch this. >> i am currently crafting -- drafting if you will, articles of impeachment. every member of congress has the right to file a privileged resolution for impeachment. it has to be heard within two legislative days. i'm crafting it. >> sean: here now, longtime friend, you know him as 99999. no one is ever going to forget

that. >> i'm going to have to put that on my birth certificate. >> sean: it's so over-the-top, conspiratorial. what do you make of it all? >> i describe it as tds. trump derangement syndrome. they are still in denial. ever since the man got elected. think about it. with the latest -- mika -- what's her name? >> sean: mika and joe are engaged. i congratulated them on twitter. >> that's very big of you. i didn't congratulate them. i am not that big. she said she questioned his patriotism. think about how ridiculous that is. the man is a billionaire. he didn't have to becometa president and take all this from all of them. look at the results that have already started to unfold in less than a few months that he's

been in office. the fact that he goes in and puts a cap on federal hiring. the national debt started to go down. it's simply what you call fake news but i had a caller -- they said last week, "would you give hannity a message? would you just give the term false news?" >> sean: note to producer, fake news roundup -- but call it false news. >> they are in denial about the accomplishments. look at the trip he just took. >> sean: pretty amazing. >> newt gingrich. the first time you had that many sunni factions listening to a american president. being part of the solution and not part of the problem. >> sean: are you worried that the noise, the conspiracy, the deep state, destroy trump
