10:00 pm
they make assessments. they have conversations with these individuals. >> this is actually good stuff. >> actually, what they do, they get it done. >> okay, we have to go. set your dvr, hannity up next. >> many thanks to our friends on the five. this is a fox news alert. welcome to hannity, breaking new updates on the massive democratic scandals that we have been warning you about and the media ignores. tonight i have a message for the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein, tonight we are demanding you stop robert mueller's mission creep, investigative creep and put an end to the political witch hunt against trump. that's tonight's opening monologue. >> the russian investigation which is being overseen by the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein is beyond corrupt, beyond political and has now turned into an open-ended fishing expedition, and just like robert mueller, rod
10:01 pm
rosenstein has fwlaring, inexcusable con flicks of interest, that we can no longer ignore. yesterday, rosenstein had this back and forth with our own chris wallace on fox news sunday. take a close look >> the special council is subject to the rules and regulations, and we don't engage in fishing expeditions. now that order doesn't detail who may be the subject of the investigation because we don't reveal that publicly. but bob mueller understands and i understand the specific scope of the investigation and so, no, it's not a phishing expedition >> i understand it's not a fishing expedition, but you say any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation, in the course of his investigation of the issues that he is looking at, if he finds evidence of a crime, can he look at that? >> well, chris, if he finds evidence of a crime that's within the scope of what director mueller and i have agreed is the appropriate scope of this investigation, then he can. if it's outside that scope, he needs to come to the acting attorney general, at this time, me, for permission to expand his
10:02 pm
investigation >> you can't be serious. you're not going to let the special counsel turn into a fishing expedition? sir, it already has. this whole investigation was supposed to be about president trump, his campaign supposedly colluding with the russians. this has gone on 11 months. no smoking gun proving it ever happened or anything was done in terms of law breaking. but in instead of ending it there, there are reports that mueller is now looking into the finances of president trump and the trump organization, and the associates of president trump. mueller has also reportedly empanelled a grand jury in washington, d.c. let's go to washington, d.c. the president got a little over 4% of the vote. more on that in a minute. many so going off what rosenstein just said on fox news sunday, he's now given mueller the green light. it appears he can do whatever he juans. legal scholar, jonathan turley, a democrat is out with a brand-new olympiced on the hill.com. he makes several key points
10:03 pm
about why he rightly believes that rosenstein needs to recuse himself, including this one. rosenstein is likely going to be a witness in this investigation that he caused because he took the lead in writing the letter to president trump on why former f.b.i. director james comby should be fired. by the way, they're looking into that as a possible obstruction. he's a witness. owesenstein is also the guy who appointed robert mueller, and apparently didn't know or didn't care about the fact that the day before naming mueller as special counsel, mueller had an interview with president trump. he wanted to be the f.b.i. director. you can't make this up. now rosenstein has also sat by quietly, turned a blind eye to robert mueller's massive conflicts of interest. like the fact that mueller and james comby are close friends. as colleague, and friend and attorney greg jarrod continues to point out, that relationship could be a violation of two laws
10:04 pm
>> then eight of his political appointees have not -- the other eight have not donated to anybody. eight democrats, zero republican donors. how is that okay? why couldn't he tell mueller to find non-partisan investigators to make up his team? just for a second. use your imagination. if the tables were turned, would a democrat allow a special counsel to only appoint republican donors? no way. what he is now doing is ridiculous. it's beyond the pale, and rosenstein should be amaimed of himself for even letting this happen. as we've said on this program and spoken numerous times about america, we can't have a two-tier justice system. it has to be equal justice under the law. if we believe in that, believe in the constitution, then it would be time for rosenstein and the doj to restore the rule of law and start looking into the
10:05 pm
massive democratic scandals that have incon trow vertable evidence that we have been telling you about. for example, on friday, we were reporting on how the american center for law and justice obtained through the freedom of information act request, the department of justice documents related to the former attorney general, loretta lynch, remember that 40-minute tarmac meeting talking about their grand kids, that took place just days before comey made his announcement about hilary clinton, and laid out a 13-minute stinging indictment just to finish with never mind. now the revelations are stunning. according to the acl j, the f.b.i. lied about the existence that documents were even there, and telling the legal group they didn't exist. second, there are several email exchanges between f.b.i. and doj officials with the subject, flag. where they discussed how media outlets were starting to report on the tarmac meeting which, obviously, is inappropriate.
10:06 pm
then they came up with a set of talking points. but in the emails released, well, those talking points were redacted. the doj and f.b.i. are not supposed to be political organizations. they are to be non-political. that begs the question, why are the f.b.i., why is the doj coming up with talking points if they're not supposed to be political? if that's not bad enough, tonight we have another stunning piece of information from those doj documents, a daily caller reported earlier today. the the acl j has confirmed that loretta lynch used an email alias as attorney general, going with the name elizabeth carlisle. according to our friend greg jarrod, public officials like loretta lynch, you're not supposed to do that. lynch's attorney defended her use of the fake name to a statement to the daily caller. apparently that kind of conduct is only acceptable in the obama department of justice. doesn't seem to impact rosenstein. now, in addition to finding out that lynch used the email alias,
10:07 pm
documents also show that lynch was aware of these talking points that were created. point wow. the same person that said, oh, it's not an investigation, it's a matter. let's take a look here. lynch's reply in an email chain with the subject line, talking points/statement. lynch wrote, thanks to all who worked on this, and then signed it ag. so lynch, who didn't think it was necessary to tell you the american people about meeting bill clinton on a tarmac, you know, just days before she was going to make a ruling on his wife for 40 minutes, not talking about grandchildren in my opinion, helped craft talking points about the encounter. only after the media picked it up on their own and then they started reporting it, on top of james comey testifying that lynch told him to call this investigation a matter. well, that was a clinton talking point. so should loretta lynch now have to testify under oath about
10:08 pm
these matters? the answer is yes. this is a definition of the two-tiered justice system i've been talking about. this has to end. you want another example? hilary clinton had secret, top secret, special access program, classified information on an unsecure server in a mom and pop shop bathroom closet. she deleted 33,000 subpoenaed emails, and then just to make sure, she acid washed the whole thing with bleach pit. then she had an aid, according to reports, smashing mobile phones with hammers, and her legal team finally does turn over to the f.b.i. blackberries, but they're useless to the f.b.i. they didn't have their simm cards. oversight. then there is debbie waserman schultz, her i.d. staffer. arrested for bank fraud, trying to flee the country after sending money to pakistan. waser man-schultz is now defending her decision to keep this guy on the payroll despite
10:09 pm
the fact he was under investigation ask didn't have access to the house servers. and there is this. similar to clinton, the daily caller reported, the f.b.i. has seized 2 smashed hard drives. what is it with democrats wanting to smash hard drives, bleach hard drives and servers and smash devices? it's an obsession of theirs. in my world where i grew up, that called obstruction of justice. now the staffer's lawyer is disputing this, but i'm not pieing it. next the obama administration. what about all the unmasking. sarah carter reporting last week former obama security advisor ben rhodes is now a person of interest in the investigations into unmasking. that's of your fellow citizens. a report from the washington beacon, former obama u.n. ambassador, samantha power unmasked hundreds of people in her final year, election year, many related to trump. why would i a u.n. ambassador need to do that?
10:10 pm
now sources that spoke to the free beacon said this is unprecedented. and we also learned congress is questioning other former obama officials, suzanne rice, john brennan about unmasking. on top of that we have the issue of intelligence leaks, also the hill, john sol man reporting, the former obama director of national intelligence, james clapper, remember him? he made it easier for those officials in the executive branch of obama to unmask members of congress and their staffers. why are special counsel being called to investigate all of these instances? the constitution of this great country is now being being shredded right before your very eyes. your fourth amendment privacy rights were being violated. it seems like on a daily basis. then there is out of control dangerous leaks from the deep state, almost a leak a day. it's happening at the rate of seven-times greater than the previous two administrations, and you know what? this has got to end. it is literally impeding the
10:11 pm
progress of the president of the united states. for example, ration transcripts, remember last week, of the president's phone call, let's see, with the prime minister and with the president of another country? when has that ever been leaked? these are crimes of the deep state that need to be investigated. people need to be charged. they need to be put under oath, and some of them need to go to jail. sarah carter reported the f.b.i.'s top lawyer, james baker, chief counsel is also under investigation for leaking to the media. james comey admitted under oath he had a friend leak information to the new york times. now the attorney general, jeff sessions finally, good for him, he announced on friday that the department of justice is going to crack down on these deep state leaks. finally, the anti-trump fake news dossier, fusion gps, the opposition research firm which ties to democrats. remember they were behind that. the dossier was put together by the former british spy,
10:12 pm
christopher steel, and used sources tied to the russian government? well, now the evidence is so overwhelming even democrats, even congressman adam shift, mr. i want to be a talk show host guest any time i can, he's now admitting he wants to talk to steele which is even more reason we need special counsel looking into all of these inseses. now it all comes down to this. does rod rosenstein know what's going to happen if mueller's mission creep continues to go unchecked? how does he think voters are going to feel? how many trump supporters will feel robbed of their right and their vote in the free electiontion of the president of the united states? you don't think the country is divided enough now? it will be more divided than ever. half the american people are going to rightly feel cheated. that just can't happen. that is bad for the country. that is bad for the system of justice, and it is bad if we believe in a constitutional republic. here with reaction, fox news anchor attorney greg jarrod.
10:13 pm
salem nationally syndicated talk show host, larry elder. you have been all over these laws. the evidence in all these cases is overwhelming. what do you think first about rosenstein? >> you know, very shortly after mueller was appointed by rosenstein i wrote columns saying both mueller and rosenstein must recuse themselves. it's abunked antedly clear. think about rosenstein, he's prosecutor, investigator, and witness all rolled into one. the cannons, how is that possible? >> i mean, lawyers across america have to be laughing at rod rosenstein. you have to recuse yourself under the canons of ethics, and the department of justice's own regulations, and yet he is ignoring them with immunity. normally you would -- impugnity. normally you'd go to a judge and say he's going to recuse himself. the problem here is the case isn't right yet because it's only an investigation. no charges have been filed yet,
10:14 pm
so no federal judge is going to intervene yet to make rosenstein recuse >> i can't believe, because we moved from trump campaign, russia conclusion into all these other areas, now it's obstruction. now it's finances. you know what this is like? look at patrick fitzgerald. it started out, he knew on day one richard armitage was the leaker, and we ended up three years later with what i would argue is a personally trap because -- perjury trap because scooter libby wouldn't give up the vice president >> rosenstein, it was a very cleaver subterfuge on fox news sunday when he tried to imply there is a scope, and mueller has to be within the limit of the scope of the investigatio. rod, there is no scope because you gave him -- >> it's supposed to be narrow. >> yeah, it's supposed to be russian links to the trump campaign. but then rod added an extra phrase or any other related matter, so that's almost
10:15 pm
open-ended discretion, unending. >> all right, larry elder. a lot of people don't know you're an attorney by trade, in spite of your history as being a talk show host and a successful one. so my question to you, let's put your legal hat on. applize all that's happening here >> well, let's gain this thing out. worst case scenario, the democrats take over the house. i don't believe you're going to find enough democrats that feel the way max even waters feels to impeach him. assuming i'm wrong, you need two-thirds of the people to convict and throw him out of office. it ain't going to happen. now the original sin was there was a special prosecutor appointed in the first place. that shouldn't have happened. there wasn't one for china gate, even though the chinese nationals and other intermediaries gave about 2.5 million illegally to the dnc. there was no special prosecutor, even though the f.b.i. said if there is any reason for a special prosecutor, it is here.
10:16 pm
and sean, you didn't mention sandy berger, remember him under bill clinton? he was tasked by bill clinton to go to the national archives and get documents to compare for the 9/11 commission. and he still documents out of the national archives, given a slap on the wrist. and one of the terms of his plea deal was he was supposed to undergo a polygraph to find out what he took. it never happened. selected outrage, hypocrisy, double standards, that's what's going on here >> what about the other special counsels? hilary committed crimes. there is no doubt she committed crimes. how does she skate free? what about all of these people leaking? i applaud the attorney general jeff sessions for now digging deep into this. but i also want to see either the attorney general, he could do it on other issues. he could do it on the clintons, debbie waser-man schultz. the ukranian conclusion >> people see through this. there wasn't a special prosecutor for lois learner in
10:17 pm
the irs scandal. there hasn't been a special prosecutor for the clinton foundation. there wasn't one for the espionage act. there wasn't one for china gate. there wasn't one for fast and furious. people see through this. donald trump, mr. president, let it ride. it's a political process. people see through it. it won't hurt your presency. make sure you get us that 3% plus gdp and no one is going to care. >> i sort of agree. these leaks are attorney. they need to get to the bottom of them >> isn't it the biggest threat to the presency right now? i believe it is, if you have one a day and your staff is spending 85% of the time, and they're all illegal leaks of intelligence, it prevents the president from doing his job. the american people are the losers here. the forgotten men and women that voted for him are the losers in all of this. last week's leaks are the example. classified conversations >> what foreign leader now wants to open and frankly talk to the
10:18 pm
president of the united states? >> nobody. nobody >> that hinders the president's ability to be commander in chief and protect this country. >> right. all right, guys, good to see you all. we have a lot more to come tonight on this breaking news. >> also, there are no good solutions in north korea. the latest on those threats. eric and lara trump in studio straight ahead. ♪ [brother] any last words?

♪ ♪ >> sean: welcome >> welcome back to hannity now as we told you in our important opening monologue tonight controversy continues to swirl around loretta lynch, after it was reported she was conducting official state department" business under an email alias including conversations with her now infamous tarmac meeting with bill clinton. here now, one of the president's attorneys, jay is with us. the when you look at the department of justice, and the f.b.i. talking about, oh, let's put out talking points talking points because an inappropriate meeting took place, what's that tell you? >> we put together a time line of this event, and it takes place over 72 hours. >> the department of justice and
10:23 pm
the f.b.i. including james comey's chief of staff and senior counsel all became involved in this, and they were in a bit of a panic mode on how to respond. they know they were caught in what was clearly not an appropriate meeting that was with loretta lynch who was then the attorney general and former president bill clinton right before secretary clinton was about to be investigated. actually be interviewed. so this takes place immediately before then. it gets public, and they're trying to figure out how to respond and this reaches up to the deputy attorney general of the united states, the chief of staff, the attorney general of the united states though in this email she goes bethe name elizabeth carlisle. that was her alias, if you will. for whatever reason they decided to do it. it's part of our request that we got out of the federal court, the department of justice was required to i have give us evidence related to documentation, and that was included in this.
10:24 pm
what it tells you, is besides the fact that reporters are calling and trying to retweet stories, and you could tell they didn't want to do this story. they were being compelled to. even if fox news is covering it, they maybe won't have to. that's how they're sharing this back and forth. at the end of the day, this goes right to the doorstep of the f.b.i. director >> does this potentially expose its own version of conclusion that they're trying to cover up the fact that they were in the things, if you will, for hilary clinton ask didn't want it exposed? and add to that it's not an investigation, it's a matter? that seems to be building a case >> add to that also that the basis upon which james comey said he went public was because of these meetings that we've got the documents on now. that's the reason he said he made that public statement
10:25 pm
because of loretta lynch's action. but she never recused herself from the actual outcome of the proceeding. that is the irony of all of this. not only to craft the narrative. we are going back to court by the way to get what that final narrative was. that, they redacted. we're going to get that from federal court. what this shows today, it went to the attorney general and the doorstep of the f.b.i. director. obviously his chief of staff info informed him of what was going on with this statement. you can't look at that as a vacuum. he makes that speech where he exonerates. but he says the reason he went public before he gave his testimony before congress, because of the meeting on the tarmac. that was the reason he did this. >> what about rosenstein and his interview with fox's own chris wallace? what is your take on that? i see an investigative mission creep. it was supposed to be mount
10:26 pm
russian, now it's a conflict with rosenstein, doesn't it because he wrote the letter about comey? >> here's what happened. i think rod rosenstein appropriately stated there is not going to be a fishing expedition. he said that twice in the course of the chris wallace interview. he understands >> he won't weigh in on that because of your position. he says that >> there is a specific mandate that is the basis upon which bob mueller can exercise his jurisdiction. it's a specific mandate. what rod rosenstein said is this isn't going to be fishing expeditions. we're not letting it go beyond that. it's going to be within that mandate, and he said it twice. i think that was encouraging that this is not going to be a fishing expedition. they're going to do their job and do it expe tishesly >> where are the special counsels on all the issues that i seem to be a voice in the wilderness here. >> yeah, where's the grand jury on all this? ask that question.
10:27 pm
where's the grand jury on what i'm holding in my hand? why was none of this investigated? no subpoenas issued there. >> does sessions do that or rosenstein have to do that? >> this is not related to russia. so this would fall in the normal parameters of the department of justice. and to be fair here, they may well be investigating this. you normally would not know that was going on. that usually goes on. if it's a grand jury that's investigating this, it's normal they do their business without it being a public discussion about it. maybe that is going on. but it points to, if you look at this narrative on this time line, it's incredible what was going on. they knew they hatem pest in a teapot and they were trying to figure out the best way to handle it. it ends up being james comey has to make that final i statement which puts the whole justice system at risk, if you ask me >> total corroboration. it's political. you need equal justice under the law. >> when we come back, there is no good solution to north korea. they're vowing to launch

>> live from america's news headquarters, i'm kelly wright. here's what's happening. north korea possibly preparing for another missle launch. u.s. spy satellite spotting two anti-ship cruise missiles loaded on to a north korean patrol boat for the first time since 2014. this just days after the u.n. security counsel unanimously enacted tough new sanctions on the rogue regime. north korea called the sanctions a quote, heinous u.s. plot to isolate and stifle the country. promising a thousand fold revenge. a tense standoff at an arkansas prison coming monday evening. three corrections officers in tucker, arkansas were held captive for three hours when six inmates took the officer's keys.
10:33 pm
the inmates eventually surrendered and relieved their captives and the prison, and returned to normal operations. none of the corrections officers were seriously injured in the incident >> i'm kelly wright. >> over the weekend the u.n. security counsel unanimously approved new sanctions against north korea. vowing to launch a thousand fold revenge against the united states. that under no circumstances will it negotiate its nuclear and missile weapons program. president trump took to twitter last night writing just completed call with president moon of south korea, very happy and impressed with 15 to 0 united nations vote on north korean sanctions. and fox news has learned the american spy satellites have detected north korea loading two anti-ship cruise missiles on to a patrol boat. joining us now with reaction, ares dr. sebastian negotiating a. i know hr mcmaster has said

we have a 15-0 vote of the u.s. security counsel, including permanent members like china and russia that have brought the most stringent package of they have backed themselves into a corner, and they need to back down >> i agree, but is this guy crazy enough? is he crazy enough to launch a nuke? the former soviet union understood mutually assured destruction? it was a huge vote to get china and russia 15-0. nobody in the media covers it. is that enough to stop this mad man? again, he likes to cause trouble on the world stage. >> this is not the cold war. remember during the cold war we had this phrase, correlation of forces. we had a balance. we had a stand off, more than 20 thousands nuclear war heads on either side. this is not the soviet union.

this is a village. this regime cannot even feed its own people. that's how much of a paper tiger it is. so now they have to send a clear message. rex tiller son today at the meet ago said they can send a signal, no more ballistic missile testing. then we will know that sanity reigns, and they don't want to bring down the ire of the president and the western community against north korea. >> why do i think it is a really clear and present danger for the world, and that with all of the talk about all these, in many cases, like russia, russia's spur flewous issues, this could define the donald trump presency more than anything else? and you could see a world coalition. we saw the former u.s. aligning against naziism, fishism in world war ii. could it be the world aligning against north korea to prevent

highest small business confidence in generations. you look at what my father has done for veterans, one of the major pleas we heard around the country, you look at what he's doing to destroy ms-13 and awful gangs in this country. the crack down on illegal immigrants coming across the border. he has done so much. he's doing so well. look at the dow. how many times has the dow broken another historic record >> i think it was seven days in a row. >> it's 56 times in the last 200 days. it's incredible. >> every american, everybody that watches this show could probably recite your dad's identity, the things he fights for. we saw it in west virginia last week. but the republican party can't even get a 7 and a half-year-old promise over the finish line in the senate. i'm not angry, i'm more app please be seateding tick about the lack -- annpal e ctic. your thoughts? >> we feel good about the rnc as
10:46 pm
a whole, but you always have a couple of holdouts. the swamp is very thick in washington, d.c. you have those lingering people who don't want to see the president succeed >> even republicans though. i thought this was the party of limited government, greater freedom, choice, capitalism, competition. this should be right up their ally. i didn't hear them talking about savings accounts, health care cooperatives, which would greatly reduce premiums for people who need health care desperately. it's going to get done. they're all going to get done. my father cares prely about repealing obama care because it's a disaster. you talk about it every night, i can't tell you how many days on the campaign trail people would come up to us literally crying, i used to have health care. i used to have a doctor i liked. i no longer have that doctor. my premiums have gone up 300%, and i have to opt out. the worst part is at the end of the year i have to pay a penalty because i can no longer afford something i had and i loved before. i think it will get done. i think repeal and replace has to

>> welcome back to hannity as we continue with eric and lara trump. good to see you both >> you've watched the special counsel. i keep pointing out you've got your ukranian conclusion, you've got iranian, deep state leaks, almost one a day. you've got hilary clinton's issues in crimes. you've got the special counsel to the f.b.i. investigator for leaking, debbie waserman schultz, and james comey. this has been an eventful, to say the least, 200 days. but a lot of it is geared towards your family, your father. do you think this is personal? >> yeah. >> is he really a threat to all of them to that extent that they want to prevent his agenda getting passed? >> do i think it's personal? yes. do i think washington is a lot more corrupt than most americans think? absolutely, no question about it. the iranian one is the most boggling thing of all time. we gave uranium, the vast majority of the united states
10:52 pm
stockpile of uranium, the material you use to make nuclear weapons to russia. to russia? think about that. nothing gets done over that. they harp over an email that's total nonsense. think about that deal. think about the fact that saudi arabia was giving hundreds of millions of dollars to the clinton foundation >> and the way they treat gays lesbians, christians and jews, that's hypocritical. >> it makes no sense. it just makes no sense. you see loretta lynch, and all these other things and no one cares about it. >> i feel like a voice in the wilderness here, eric, i really do. there is such deep corruption, but it's your family. you're close to it, and knowing your father as many years as i have before he ever get in got into this, he seems to handle it. it doesn't bother him. he likes to fight back >> i say it all the time, they can work as hard as they want to stop donald trump. but i've never seen anyone outwork my father-in-law. and he will keep fighting for
10:53 pm
the american people to the bitter end. and eric said it, he'll get these things accomplished. he'll keep fighting for the people that put him in office. that is so important to him. this is a man who did not need this job, sean. he had the greatest life in the world and he put it aside because he saw real problems in this country. he knew he probably is the only person that can get through them. they're very scared of him. that's why you see so much of this out there. and i know without a doubt, when you see them attacking him, it means he's doing things right, because they're very, very scared. >> what would you like -- i actually think the republicans are going on yet another vacation. i've never seen so much vacation by members of congress. they've taken more vacation this year, which is average, than i've taken in the last 15 years. i've never seen anything like it. your dad's not on vacation despite reports. >> my father's not on vacation. i've never in my life seen my father take vacation. i think we inherit that trait. listen, he's a worker. he's a worker. he takes his job incredibly
10:54 pm
seriously. that's why you look at all the accolades and things he's gotten done, it's substantial. that is who he is as a person. he's a hard driver, he's a fast mover. you look at the campaign, there has never been somebody that's worked harder in a presidential campaign ever. he's in six, seven rallies in front of 20,000 people a day >> the rallies are even stronger now. it seems like the people that voted for him instinctively see him under fire and want to help him >> we just went to west virginia together, and it was incredible. you had 20,000 people in a room. you're literally driving up to the venue and it's people as far as the eye can see. they're going crazy. they come out with their handmade signs. that speaks to love. they went out, put the time in. they're waiting for hours and hours. they want to see the president. you finally have the person who gave some hope >> what makes you think republicans will step up? >> well i certainly hope they do. they better. he's doing great things >> they better or they're going to get fired. >> he's changing this nation from every possible indices
10:55 pm
doing unbelievable things for this country. this country has more jobs, it's wealthier, it's stronger >> if he gets this economic plan passed and couple with energy independence, i think you see unemployment eliminated, you can create so many career high-paying jobs. so, five weeks. congratulations >> thank you. >> have you practiced la moss? are you ready to support her? >> i'm ready to support her. >> i remember we went to la moss class, and the lady was very kind. and i was like, i'm not having the baby. why do i have to learn this stuff. she said, no, you can help >> we've been nesting. i've been hanging mirrors and putting together cribs and furniture and all this stuff >> true, he's very handy. >> hey, ten years as a contractor, i'm pretty handy too. >> grandpa's excited too. >> we appreciate you being with us. when we come back, more hannity after this quick break.
