tv   Hannity  FOX News  June 23, 2017 10:00pm-11:01pm PDT

10:00 pm
i love a good log ride. >> i bet you do. set your dvrs and don't miss an episode of the five. >> the log ride is real. >> things for our friends on the five, this is a friday fox news alert. welcome to hannity. major breaking news today, we have an incredible important monologue about the chief purveyors of fake news and the destroyed trump media, people that youke don't know about. we will expose tonight and a special many monologue. first, the senate judiciary committee leaders are now finally opening an investigation into former attorney general loretta lynch is alleged interference with the fbi in their investigation into hillary clinton's email server. also tonight, a hannity investigation into the intense and dangerous hatred now >> hannity: from hollywood and liberal campuses against our president. we'll cover it all in the special opening monologue.
10:01 pm
it's about time, we have to commend a group of bipartisan senators are actually doing their job announcing earlier todayay they are going to investigate the former obama attorney general loretta lynch for potentially influencing the investigation of obstructing justice as it relates to clinton's email server. there are several questions that you the american people deserve answers to when it comes to loretta lynch. first, we now remember last summer, lynch met on a tarmac with bill clinton for about 40 minutes just days before the former fbi director james comey announced that he was giving hillary clinton a free pass despite the fact that comey said she was extremely careless with the handling of government information. reckless disregard, extremely careless. the legal term is gross negligence. the same thing. number two, james, revealed while testifying before congress
10:02 pm
loretta lynch will very well have obstructed justice by telling him to call the investigation into hillary clinton a matter. which was hillary clinton's own campaign way of referring to the investigation. lynch needs now to be put under oath. she has a lot of explaining to doyn to you, the american peopl. we also know this. by the way, if you need to know if lynch was acting on her own, we need to know if she was given instructions from others in the obama administration. this is a massive story. jay secular will be here tonight with reaction. s we promise you, we will follow the story jose. don't forget, sarah carter's report john solomon's report that theyt said, he confronted her loretta lynch with information that maybe she had already decided never to bring an indictment against hillary gross of what the evidence was able to show. also tonight, story two, very important. hollywood's diva visceral hatred towards president trump continues not to be on full display.
10:03 pm
the viciousness and disturbing threats coming from the left knows no bounds. actor johnny depp is only the latest to make threatening comments about the president with this disgusting comment about assassinating the president of the united states of america. take a look. >> one was the last time an actor assassinated the presiden president? [cheers and applause] i want to clarify, i'm not anan actor. i live for a living. however, it's been a while. and maybe it's time. >> hannity: after facing intense backlash, debt issued a apology saying quote i apologize for the bad joke. i attempted last night in poor taste about president trump. it did notze come out as i intended. i intended no malice. really? no malice at all?
10:04 pm
i was only trying to amuse, he said, not harm anyone. the secret service is now saying it is aware of depp's disturbing comments but ist declining to mention if, in fact, there will be an investigation into johnny depp. enough is enough with this, this nonsense. the left viciousness is now completely and utterly out of control. it is to be a very serious effort to thoroughly completely investigate any person in this country that makes heuristics threats to the president. we must prosecute them to the flows descent of thepr law. if you watch the show, you know, champion of the first amendment. freedom of speech. there's got to be some line when it comes to threatening the life of our president. let me remind left that just last week, republicans were targeted by radical left-wing ideologue in what was an assassination attempt. steve scully's was fighting for his life. as i said then, we can only hold
10:05 pm
a person who commits crimes responsible for their actions but we shouldn't be encouraging what is political violence. by the way, johnny depp, he should stop attacking the president and focus on his own problems. since he has more than enough to go around. what is so deeply disturbing about depp's threat is that it's only one example of this intense, violent, vitriol, out of control anger coming from the left. we have new audio tonight about a fired nebraskan democratic official saying that he was glad that congressman steve scalise was shocked, hoping he died. listen to this. >> this [bleep], his whole job is to get people -- convince republicans to kick people off of health care. >> we know all of this. >> i'm glad he got shot. i'm glad he got shot. i'm not going to say that in public. beyond over the the culprit copter tinfoil hat conspiracy
10:06 pm
news networks, nbc, political analyst, former front of the program, i'm actually shocked she made these comments, made this comment about the president by comparing him to a suicide bomber. the lease, really? >> it's a sad day when you cannot depend on the president. my advice would just be to republicans, is just like hugging a suicide bomber. he blows up in the process with him. >> hannity: also tonight, another new disturbing example from hollywood actress patty n capone. watch what she says. >> why should president trump come see your show? >> i hope he doesn't because i won't perform if he does. >> really?e >> really. >> tony y. >> because i hate the [bleep]. >> hannity: if that's not enough or bad enough, there's a photo so graphically have to warn you about it before we put it up on your screen. remember, an 11-year-old son of the president saw this on television, kathy griffin making her isa style pose with a bloodied and severed head of the
10:07 pm
president. then of course, the performance art, shakespeare in the park, julius caesar, favorite of liberal joe and mika central park featuring donald trump look-alike rudely stabbedur and murdered on a nightly basis. in addition to all that, you have people like robert de niro wanting to punch the president in the face and mickey rourke and marilyn manson advocating, saying publicly, speaking out for violence against the president. take a look at this headline from the washington free beacon, quote 30 g.o.p. congressmen have been attacked or threatened since may. the left is suffering way beyond trump derangement syndrome.o this is now psychosis. completely unhinged. take a look at how vile some of the rhetoric has been just over the years. watch and listen to this. >> yes, i have thought an awful lot about blowing up the white house. >> pigs in a blanket, burn like bacon.
10:08 pm
>> all put mr. burgess up against sean hannity. he'll tear them up. i want you to talk to them whether their independent or whether they are republican. i want you to arguee with them and get in their face. >> the press always asked me don't i wish i were debating you? no, i wish i could take them behind the gym. >> i will fight every day until he is impeached. impeached 45. >> a lot of us thought the broncos going to be our saving grace. when he is about to nuke finland or something. she's going to walk into the bedroom and say daddy. [laughter] don't do it, daddy. >> it is a weird attention.
10:09 pm
it's a dangerous time for the first amendment and for the free press in this country in the same time, we are oddly influential with the guy that wants to kill us. >> how dare he say that? how dare he say the things he does? of course i want to punch him in the face. >> hannity: the psychotic viciousness, these threats of violence from the left, it needs to stop. i've been saying this for years and for all you left-wing clinton groups that always want to silence conservatives, we give you a reminder of what i said about the need to protect our president, president obama at the time. 2014, numerous times and said this on radio and television. just take a sneak peek at how i said to protect america's presidents when obama was president. if we are not protecting our president, we are not protecting our leaders, we got a big problem. the rest of the world is watching us. you're talking about protecting the president of the united states of america, and there's just no room for error.
10:10 pm
you've got to protect our president. that represents the free world. it was reaction always breaking news stories, fox news correspondent at large geraldo rivera. fox news anchor attorneyy gregg jarrett, charlie kirk, founder and executive director of turning point usa. geraldo, i begin with you. this isn't funny anymore. this is beyond unhinged. this is a danger. > i was thinking a lot about johnny depp is going through a troubled period in his life. let me say that i hope that this is a function of that rather than a sincere desire to threaten the life of the president and by referencing john wilkes booth in the end assassination of president abraham lincoln. i think it's horrifying. i think it's sloppy. i think it slow down, arrogant, obnoxious, and this is my main point. it is also may be illegal. it could be criminal. it is illegal to threaten the president of the united states. previous courts decisions have found that humor or satire can be a defense to that, but i'll tell you a good way to stop these people from making these
10:11 pm
threats or these overt acts like the shakespeare in the theater stabbing of a president trump a.k.a. julius caesar, how the secret service which is charged with the safety and sent today of the president to visit these person. there is nothing more designed, more calc elated to make you wet your pants than having these secret service agents knock on your door. mr. depp, do you have a minute? we have to talk to you about apparently you have violated this. >> hannity: you can't make a threat. greg, back on the legal side. you can't make terroristic threats to kill a president. >> has been knowing and willful and has to be a true threat. being a n stupid defensive end n bad taste is not a crime, if it were, depp would already be behind bars given his most recent movie, which was cruel and unusual punishment for viewers to watch. it has to be a real genuine
10:12 pm
threat. johnny depp sitting on the stage talking crazy doesn't constitute a real threat. >> hannity: what about madonna? what about dreaming about blowing up the obama white house, which i'd never do as i can prove it numerous times i've said protect president obama. he is america's president. >> the real danger is that provocative language and images inevitably do provoke acts of violence. we've seen it on so many different occasions. in the 40 years i've been doing this, i have never seen such a venomous local climate. poisonous that its inexorable that something bad is going to happen. >> hannity: that's chilling. by the way, something bad happened. we have congressmen targeted for assassination in alexandria. geraldo, what's going on in college campuses? >> it's completely out of control, and on>> that day when
10:13 pm
congressman scalise was shot, i thought back and said i think our organization profiled some professors that actually had been calling for the public death and execution of g.o.p. congressmen who very well. we dug it up. one example was john griffin who is a professor out in washington who said g.o.p. congressmen should be lined up and shot. this is not a hyperbole. he posted this on his facebook page. this is a pattern. this is the new normal. your monologue hit it right on the mark. they actually don't want him politically dead. they want him dead. elected celebrities, they no longer just want him impeached. they want him and his family dead. >> hannity: geraldo, i agree with you. especially in light of the assassination attempt. i make my living with the first amendment, i defend everybody. there's got to be at this point, i don't know whether to believe them, not believe them. i can't read somebody's mind. we talk about blowing up the white house, if you're talking about assassinating the president, we have to take that
10:14 pm
to be t real, don't we? >> i think that with the town halls pacifically, these hotbeds of real vehement emotion right now, we need and i've been advocating this now, airport type security for our legislators, our elected officials and certainly for the first family and the president of the united states. we have to err on the side of caution. it just takes one nut job to create a tragedy. >> hannity: i wish we had more time. thank you all for being with us. very important topic, scary times we are living in. we come back, we have more on the senate judiciary, our top story tonight. if they have opened up an investigation into loretta lync lynch. j set below will give us the reaction and also tonight, president trump's daughter-in-law laura trump reacts to johnny depp's vicious comments. also, you don't want to miss tonight, i will expose too many likely don't even know that are responsible for all the fake

10:19 pm
>> hannity: welcome back to hannity, this is explosive news. the senate judiciary committee has open nounyn investigation, a probe into allegations about an appearance by lynch into the fbi's investigations of bill clinton's use of a private email server. to add to the last segment before we move on, hillary clinton tweeted earlier tonight quote forget death panels, the publicans pass this bill, they are the best party. the counsel for the american center for law and justice, also attorney for the president. jessica lowe is with us. i've been saying thatus this waa boomerang back. no evidence by anybody of any russian collusion, 11 months of media lying in conspiracy theories. but it opened up the door that okay, now we have to look at loretto. now we have to look at hillary. i would argue hillary is going to be right behind limited lynch interns of investigation issues. thoughts? >> we said this a year ago this
10:20 pm
was a significant event, that whole incident at the tarmac with the then attorney general of the united states and the former president bill clinton on the weekend that his wife was being interviewed by the fbi. not under oath. for issues involving the elimination and mishandling of classified information the so-called email scandal, it's much more than email scandal. it was an illegal enterprise that was going on. they have the senate intelligence committee saying we want answers to questions and one of those questions or series of questionsti focused on a very significant development. that is where their memorandums or statements made by the attorney general to members of the democratic national committee stating this, we will not let this investigation of hillary clinton go too far. those assurances have been made. if that proves to be true and there's a lot of evidence starting to swirl and now republicans and democrats have signed this letter saying they
10:21 pm
want answers to these questions. this is how investigation starts.s it needs to, and it goes a step further than that. there is a lotit more at play he than just this. >> hannity: let me ask one more question. i've been saying that robert mueller is to recuse himself and get out, and he is also hired clinton's lawyer and obama and clinton donors and rosenstein. here's my question. the president spoke out in his interview with ainsley this morning, he even sees us as bothersome. listen to what the president says. >> is very good friends with connie, which is very bothersom bothersome. so we'll have to see. i can say that the people that have been hired are all hillary clinton supporters. some of them worked for hillary clinton. the whole thing is ridiculous if you want to know the truth from that standpoint. >> hannity: this is the most interest.nflict of this is the biggest case of investigative mission creep if
10:22 pm
you well. ever seen in my life. it is a witch hunt, yet it keeps going on. the people that should be investigated, hillary and loretta lynch, we are only just beginning that. a >> first of all, with the president said was absolutely correct. he said it exactlyly right. the witness is the front of the prosecutor, how does that all play out connects us not supposed to play that way. number two, and let me be really directionless. the slicking of information that is continuing to happen, that is where the most significant issue isen here. why are weig okay with leaks coming out weathers' department of justice, the state department, whether it's the house and senate intel committees on information like this? why is that okay? how tight with a special counsel needs to do. they need to look make sure this weeks stop immediately. they have no choice. >> hannity: loretta lynch needs to be investigated and to this wrongdoing prosecuting. other current and we know committed felonies and i'll tell you what else, this deep state selective leaking to her must be
10:23 pm
cleaned up if this country is going to move forward and the election results of the duly elected president is able to do his job. that's number one. >> the primary task that has to happen now is those that are engaged in the eyes acts inside the government, the fourth branch of government, that has to be put to a stop now. there's no time to waste on that. that's not the way the constitution works. see what i want hillary prosecuted because she committed felonies. that's just a fact. if we deny that, there's not equal justice under the law. thank you. coming up, what is the president's family think about johnny tubbs new assassination comments and all the other outrageous things said? j will check in with the president's daughter-in-law laura trump. children us. also later, ainsley earhardt talks about her inclusive interview this morning with president trump. also tonight, and inclusive interview with a bunco. we'll play that. also ever wondered who is behind all the fake news in this country? who's responsiblee for the

[cheers and applause] i want to clarify, i'm not an actor. i live for a living. however, it's been a while. and maybe it's time. >> hannity: johnny depp last night talking about the assassination of president trump. he supposedly apologized for the remarks.g what does president trump's family think about the vile attacks. joining usrk now is trump senior advisor, trump's daughter-in-law, eric trump's wife, laura trump is with us but how are you? sorry again that we have you back to talk about a lot of
10:30 pm
hatred that is focused right on your father-in-law and your family. i know he has since sent i intended no malice. when you talk about assassination, how do not intend malice? >> it's really sad. you're right, we are back you're talking about it again. at least he apologized, i guess. it's really disappointing. >> hannity: i intended no malice. does that sound like an apology? >> i was in iowa with my father-in-law for the rally the other day. what i can tell you is the people in this country are sick and tired of the sort of thing. they don't think it's cute. they don't think it's funny. he's not doing himself any favors with fans of his by doing things like this. it really does speak to a bigger problem, which is that the sort of thing has become normalized. we see what happened with shakespeare in the park, weal se kathy griffin, we see late-night hosts, madonna wanting to blow up the white house. it's out of control, and it's really, really sad. as a family member, as an american, it's incredibly
10:31 pm
disappointing. >> hannity: was very fascinating to me is i don't hear nancy pelosi saying guys, everybody on my side of the aisle stop. i don't hear hillary saying it, i don't hear any real democratic leaders saying it, why are there voices so quiet and all of this? because i've got to believe that if it was them, they would be very outspoken and probably attacking every conservative and demanding that they denounce it. big let's be very clear, this is never happened in this capacity to any other president. it is happening to donald trump because he is donald trump, because their candidate failed, because they have nothing else to say. they have no platform, they have no real leader. they have no real message. the other thing they can do is pile on thege president. unfortunately, it's to the detriment of this country. instead of trying to be proactive and help pass legislation that might be beneficial to people in this country, it's all anti-trump. >> hannity: i think the real reason behindnd this is that hes a threat.
10:32 pm
to the establishment, the deep state, to the swamp. there are so many real swamp creatures. democrat and republican. they are overmp the map. when i see what happened in alexandria, virginia, we've got targeted assassinations now and targeted assassination lists and literally a nebraska democrat praising the scalise shooting hoping this man dies when he was fighting for his life and 30 g.o.p. congressmen have been targeted because they support the president, this is not a one-off. this is not isolated. is now now leading to real ssolence and real assassination attempts. i don't know why the left and how they continue to get away with this because i know i would be targeted for firing and probably rightly so. >> your exactly right. i saidou it actually. i got a chance to speak just before my father-in-law did to people in iowa. is it the exact same thing. the only reason that you see all this hate coming his way, the
10:33 pm
oonly reason the mainstream meda is broadcasting live day after day because they are incredibly scared because they know what donald trump is going to do. they already see the great things that he's doing. they don't publicize them of course, but they understand the donald trump is there to clean up washington, d.c. that threatens their life very much, their livelihood, the way things have been going for a long time for them is about to change and they all understand that. >> hannity: what specifically do you make of it? every election season, although it'spe not true for conservativ, their labeled racist sexist, homophobic, sena fama, i can't think of all the phobias i'm supposed to have that i don't. but more particularly, the attack against women. i don't know if you remember mitt romney had quote binders of, women's resumes, women he wanted to hire and it became quote sexist of him to have tha that. but o o the specific targeting i you and ivanka and melania and even can we not leave an

10:40 pm
you're killing everybody here at the network. making us all look bad. you have a good rapport with the banco. tell us aboutor it. >> i just feel extremely blessed. i'm actually here in south carolina right now visiting my family. is that i'm from south carolina and i'm being invited to the white house and standing in the rose garden. i remember visiting the white house as a child. she said i feel the same way. she that i can't believe this. i grew up in new york city. i was was impressed by her dad success and now is thehe present of the datasets of america. we did talk about that and talk about what they agree on, with a disagree on. talked about what it's like to raise children in the white house or in washington. she said her children are still privileged and still feel that it's an honor to come and visit the white house. she talked about cooking with her children, who does the cooking, who does the cleaning. >> hannity: you asked her and we keep hearing that of anke is more liberal than her dad and trying to pull her dad in different directions, i've known her father for a couple of decades. he is not changing his mind ifhe he doesn't want to change his d
10:41 pm
mind. that's my feeling. you asked her about these disagreements and let's play that. >> naturally, there are areas where there is disagreement, where two differente human bei human beings. i think it's normal to not have 100% aligned viewpoints on every issue. i don't think anyone operates like a that, whether parents are in the context of an administration and i think that all different viewpoints being at the table is a positive thing. i think one of the things that in this country we don't have enough of his dialogue. >> hannity: what she's saying is true based on my experience with the president, and knowing him all these years is that he likes -- we used to have late-night conversations about the iraq war, and he would tell me all the time that i'm wrong. so he likes this agreement. >> absolutely, and we remember in the primaries she couldn't father because she was registered as an independent. they do disagree on certain issues.
10:42 pm
we talked about the magazine this week has a whole article, the headline is about the disagreements, and she said they never even interviewed me. it's funny that they wrote those articles are that article in first person. she said they never even asked me any of those questions. she said don't believe everything that you read. she said it is okay as you heard to have disagreements and to feel strongly and feel different than her dad does. >> hannity: speaking of knowing him, i knew the minute that he said that he tweeted out james, dohen't lie, who knows, there may be tapes. i knew he didn't tape them. but he didn't want to cast out in the mind of james comey because he knew way before the rest oft us that he was very angry and disgruntled. the estimate good question about this and i want to sure audiences. because i don't have any tape and i didn't tape but when he found out that there may be tapes out there whether it's government tapes or anything else and who knows, i think his story may have changed.
10:43 pm

10:49 pm
that makes my point. tonight and want to expose two men were largely responsible for peddling all of this political propaganda. this is an important revealing mini monologue. each and every day, cnn, msnbc, they turn out that healthy dose of liberal spin conspiracy theories to their viewers. it was behind the destroy trump media strategy? look no further than the fake news chiefs themselves. fsthe president of cnn worldwide jeff zucker, the chairman of nbc news, msnbc and dulac. what we know about zucker and lack besides the billo never hie me and i never want to look for them? first, jeff sucker. longtime manhattan new york alida spirit heroes of the rings of the very liberal nbc before finally moving to cnn to become its president in 2013. recently, he was quoted in a variety of saying it's really the renaissance of journalism in america because of the nature of what is going on.
10:50 pm
really? the renaissance of journalism? let's pause for a minute to take on what these so-called renaissance of journalism looks like the clinton news network. let's take a look. >> were discovering bad reality television is what it feels like now. it's a grotesque abuse of power by the president of the united states. this is the kind of thing that goes on in nondemocracies. >> apparently the president gets two scoops and everyone else around the table gets one. and no word if they were sprinkles. >> at the dessert course, he gets to scoops of vanilla ice cream with chocolate cream pie. instead of the single scoop for everyone else. >> he gains weight accorded in these sets of sources, he doesn't trust people around him, he is withdrawing. not a good picture. >> he now lives within his cell which is a dangerous place for him to be. >> if he wants to say that, barack obama was to say whateve whatever, . >> the only winner, the only
10:51 pm
people we have tonight are sitting in the com1. now he's the president snowflak snowflake. they're saying they're mean to me and they don't like me and i just don't understand it and is not fair. >> this was a white lash. this was a white lash against a changing country.h it was a white lash against aas black president in part. >> hannity: are you really proud? are you really believing that's renaissance journalism? according to the president, he actually said he helped to get his job with cnn. i guess no good deed goes unpunished. now is take a look at the nbc news chairman, antiblack. lack by the way is a new york city native, liberal, he started his career at cbs. ultimately becoming the president of nbc news and early 90s. he then bounced around a few other corporations for returning to nbc news as its president in
10:52 pm
2015. at the time, variety reported andrew lack returns to nbc as news cheap will face challenges restoring credibility. so has he is succeeded in restoring credibility over it nbc news? we report, i you decide, fair ad balanced, watch this. >> donald trump of course being a smock, he looked like a thug. he looked like a goon. a look at the handshake, and look at this. what a thug. this is so unbalanced. he is not well. is vladimir putin's hostage. totally unprepared for the job of being president and not knowing what he does not know. >> unfit mentally. sorry. >> it would be like somebody wetting their pants and someone saying that's modern art. >> and the president asked the fbi director for loyalty, his exit trying to change the character of the american government. hitler in 1934 was demanding
10:53 pm
loyalty. >> he said today america first, it's not racial, back onto it. >> here you have a deranged president or a pathologically lying president. >> a lot of people who i think are critical of donald trump generally look at chris like that from somebody like donald you can wonder if he is a gateway drug. >> hannity: really? you call the president of the united states a thug, a goon. daily unhinged emotional outbursts, daily. msnbc news. everything that's bad, remember nbc now has even been known to float bizarre tinfoil hat black helicopter russia conspiracy theories night after night after night for months and months and months. of course, their flagship program on cable, rachel maddow show. watch the theories evolvel dail. >> just last week, reuters reported on 18 new previously
10:54 pm
undisclosed o contacts between e trump campaign in russian government officials. u.s. investigators including the fbi are looking into a russian citizen in conjunction with one of the incidents on the trump campaign last year. maybe he is not as charitable as he says or maybe is not really under audit. all those little things might be true. that be interesting to know. i don't know if that that would change the world that much but what would change the world as if russia was interfering in the election, and they weren't doing it on the round. and he was in onec it. the fbi director being fired by theng president to try to change or stop an fbi investigation into the president's campaign and his top staffers, that is a big deal. >> hannity: if it wasn't so sad, it's actually funny. i asked andy if you're proud of kind of reporting? tom brokaw, are you proud of that? a former colleague, megyn kelly. are you proud? are you proud, matt lauer? in case you're still wondering

what party affiliation these two fake news chiefs belong to, look no further than their campaign contributions. since 2000, jeff zucker's wife has donated a whopping couple thousand dollars to the dnc that pales in comparison to the very generous andrew lack and the lack family. andrew has contributed over 50 granted democrats since 2002 including president obama, hillary clinton, maxine waters, barbara boxer. meanwhile, his wife betsy, she's contributed more than 100 grand to democratic candidates and causes. coming up, we need your help. a very important question of the day straightrd ahead. the citi® double cash card does. earn 1% cash back when you buy, and 1% as you pay. double means double.
