tv   Hannity  FOX News  January 8, 2018 6:00pm-7:00pm PST

6:00 pm
all. i love oprah profoundly. tune in every night at 8:00 to a show that is the -- the great sean hannity is next. >> sean: great show. thank you for being with us. welcome to "hannity". new developments about potential political bias in the russia investigation. john solomon and sara carter are reporting that congressional committees are trying to determine if peter strzok and girlfriend lisa page literally leaked information to the media and tonight also the media and hollywood liberals are fawning and falling all over themselves to endorse oprah winfrey for a 2020 presidential bid after a speech at the golden globes. have they anointed a new savior? this comes amid new reports tonight that oprah might actually run and while hollywood liberals are patting themselves on the back they're ignoring their massive hypocrisy on the issue of sexual assault and misconduct.
6:01 pm
we're the only show who will expose that and cover it all in tonight's breaking news opening monologue. we have a big monologue on oprah tonight. that's coming up in a minute. we have to start with tonight's breaking news. john solomon and sara carter, this hour, are reporting that congressional committees are trying to determine if f.b.i. agent peter strzok and his f.b.i. lawyer girlfriend lisa page literally leaked information about the russia investigation to the press. here is why solomon reporting that text messages between strzok and page appear to show that, in fact, they had advance knowledge about a "wall street journal" article and it was about to be published. now take a look at this text exchange between page and strzok that was obtained by the hill. page tells strzok article is out but hidden behind pay wall so can't read it. strzok responds "wall street journal"? boy, that was fast. should i find it and tell the
6:02 pm
team? there are also other text messages about the media like this one. strzok saying yep, the whole tone in the anti-bu just a tiny bit from us. page replace makes me feel way less bad throwing him under the bus to the forthcoming cf article. according ahill, they're trying to figure out who strzok and page were trying to throw under the bus. page says we have a list of kids with their parents' names. how many of this reporter from "the new york times" could be there in d.c. the hill is reporting strzok and page exchanged the text messages about tracking down information about a "new york times" reporter that they were referencing in that text. why would they be looking into a "new york times" reporter? page then writes found what i think might be their addresses, too. strzok says he is totally
6:03 pm
shlubby and take horrible shots at the "new york post." chris wallace and megyn kelly, mocking the trump hotel in washington, d.c. and say they hope it fails horribly. they would never stay there. because of the existence of various next messages that reference the news media congressional investigators are looking into improper leaking to the press about the russia investigation. how else would you interpret those words? they'll be here with all the details coming up. members of the media, liberals in hollywood are absolutely giddy tonight over what? oprah winfrey's speech at the golden globes which i would say was very good. many are saying and she sounded presidential. it was a campaign-style delivery. according to new reporting oprah is now considering running in 2020. here is the part of what oprah said at the golden globes. let's take a look. >> i want all the girls
6:04 pm
watching here now to know that a new day is on the horizon! >> sean: to the media, the left in this country oprah is their chosen one, the new messiah they'll worship and follow like the sheep they are. here is why. the media and the left in this country, well, they now seem to think oprah is the one person that can help them fulfill their ultimate goal. to destroy donald trump and defeat president trump. just look at how the media, how transparent they are fawning over oprah's speech. does it remind you of the same people that never vetted obama in 2007 and 2008? we don't know a lot about oprah's politics at all. she is a very likable person on tv and inspiring life story. watch this. >> she is known as the queen of talk and last night the world was listening. the all-star crowd captivated by her message of female
6:05 pm
empowerment, a speech so inspiring many now calling for her to add another title in front of her name. president. >> oprah defining the night. bringing the audience to its feet. setting a new tone for hollywood and men and women around the globe. >> after that speech, she had quite a few people in that room saying they sure did like the sound of president winfrey. >> if she were to get in the next day she would lead the fight for the democratic nomination. >> i was back in the one-on-one rooms while the speech was going on. everyone was mesmerized. >> that speech was not only empowering and inspirational but echoed hillary clinton's concession speech. desperately needed therapy for anybody watching. >> she gave a speech that gave people hope and reminded people what is so great about this country and the strides this country has made and how we still have so much to be hopeful for. >> sean: that doesn't show their bias?
6:06 pm
it does. nbc tweeted an endorsement for oprah. nothing but respect for our future president. nbc got called out for bias they deleted the tweet and tried to shift blame to someone else by putting out a statement saying yesterday a tweet about the golden globes and oprah winfrey was sent by a third party, not them. an agency for nbc entertainment and real timed during the broadcast. it is a reference to a joke made during the monologue and not meant to be a political statement. that's what they have msnbc so. the operative arm and extension of the press office. of course, of the anti-trump media. they've since removed the tweet. really? does anyone believe that? i don't. a third party agency? are they trying to get some poor kid fired over this? nbc got caught red-handed and trying to spin it and hope that we'll all go away. let's be honest here. when you are talking about nbc they aren't fooling anyone about where their politics and
6:07 pm
political allegiances lie. look at conspiracy theory 24/7msnbc. hate trump, that's our programming for today. nbc despise, loath, hate the president and it's not a secret. so let's all stop pretending because the game is over. by the way, nbc wasn't the only destroy trump outlet to heap praise on oprah. "new york times," president oprah? usa today. oprah 2020, winfrey's golden globe speech has fans dreaming of presidential run. deadline oprah kicks off 2020. white house bid and other surprising moments from the golden globe awards. the guardian, could oprah winfrey run for president and win? and then there is hollywood. after last night's speech all of these private jet liberals were all shown off their new found political affection for oprah. this is their new savior. take a look. >> there is a movement afoot
6:08 pm
back here oprah 2020. >> i'm not kidding. i am all about oprah 2020. >> honestly? president winfrey is just -- it sounds good. it rolls off the tongue. >> it comes out -- >> the immediate reaction online? >> please run. >> please run. >> i hope she runs for president. >> i think she is our next president. >> sean: did any say a nice word about trump? the economy doing better in eight years. where does oprah stand on the issues? she launched a rocket tonight. i want her to run for president. i don't think she has had any intention of declaring. now she doesn't have a choice. poor oprah, your life is now committed. others like obama's former speech writer,, he got in the action of tweeting. oprah winfrey is as inspiring as any public figure day. she doesn't speak to celebrity
6:09 pm
america, she speaks to america. don't underestimate here. cnn political analyst tweeted this. if oprah ran for president in 2020 she is every person, she has been poor, now rich. also a self-made billionaire and a grasp of the issues as we used to cover local politics. can articulate any issue and massive appeal beyond race and gender. i know you people in hollywood and all of you in the liberal media, i know you are all intoxicated and addicted to trump hate. maybe you might want to put a little bit of pressure on the brakes here with your oprah obsession. really ready to go that deep into what oprah speech, which i thought was brilliant in many ways. i have no problem with oprah winfrey. what she did last night was great. she stood up for women especially in hollywood. i support that as i think everyone should and i think oprah has a tremendous capacity
6:10 pm
for human empathy. she has an incredible, strong personal story. overcoming sadness and tragedy in a horrible upbringing. i applaud her for what she has done in her life. i don't know that much about her in terms of running for president. she supported barack obama. as to the media and snowflake hollywood left, take a deep breath. control your giddiness. i know you hate trump. let's not jump on the oprah 2020 train just yet. the economy has never been better in eight years. you don't like this president stands up to north korea and iran and he is not trying to bribe murdering dictators. you'll have to get used to peace through strength because it actually works. buckle up. it will be a rough three years from here. that's the problem with the left. i will never understand why they are looking for a messiah, a savior. somebody that will come in and save the country. they don't need another liberal chosen to fix our problems with more government. reagan once said government is not the solution, it's the
6:11 pm
problem. we need more individual freedom in this country. we need more liberty in this country. we don't need more liberal policies out of washington look at what the liberal ideas did to the economy and foreign policy in the last eight years. can you even look? you all loved obama. his track record was atrocious and so to all of you star struck people out there tonight looking for your next chosen one, you may want to relax and stop trying to buy your ticket on the oprah 2020 train. here is the other point tonight. the hypocrisy from the left is stunning. it is very predictable. everyone just like in the liberal media everyone to a person praising oprah and by the way, to the degree hollywood for their movement about me too, etc. it's great what oprah did by standing up for victims of sexual misconduct and abuse. it's awesome. we can't forget that misconduct is and has been rampant in
6:12 pm
hollywood for decades. i don't trust anyone that they really in their deep heart of hearts, except the people that were victims, you know, actually believe all they are saying at this point. why? because there are a lot of hypocrites on this specific issue. for example, remember how hollywood embraced roman polansky. he was accused of raping a 13-year-old girl in 1977. after, of course, he gave her champagne and drugs. at the time he was 43. he was eventually charged with six felony counts but fled to europe before being sentenced. you would think after that hollywood would be completely in the business of disowning and renouncing polansky. that never happened. here is what it did instead back in 2003 he won an oscar for best director and the celebrity-filled audience erupted in applause like i never heard before even though he can't come back to america
6:13 pm
because he was avoiding authorities overseas. listen to the level of cheering when his name is called out by harrison ford. watch this. >> roman polansky. [cheering and applause] >> sean: really? standing ovation? a rapist? hollywood's support for him didn't end in 2003 when he got the oscar. when he got the oscar in 2009 after he was arrested in switzerland in connection to the 1977 case that he ran away from. he had over 100 celebrities, many hollywood, signing a petition demanding his release. so like i said, it's all great.
6:14 pm
hollywood, pat yourself on the back, 50,000 award ceremonies ayear. i can't stand it or watch a second of it but it really took decades and countless people that suffered before you finally are able to do it and do it right? joining us now with reaction we have the host of michelle malkin investigates former white house press secretary sean spicer. it was 2009, michelle, when the right -- many are signing a petition for him. you saw the roar and the standing ovation. i have faith in oprah winfrey but i don't have faith in all the people racing for the next savior. >> in the clip you just showed, among the people who leapt to their feet for roman polanski and meryl streep and harvey weinstein. i have to disagree with you slightly, sean, as much as i've
6:15 pm
heard -- >> sean: we've been family for years. >> so i do not join in all of the effusive praise for oprah's speech last night. i thought it was textbook, partisan, and ideological identity liberalism and she herself is one who has been accused by multiple victims of harvey weinstein of being a fixer for harvey weinstein. there are many infamous pictures of her hanging off of weinstein. >> sean: did she know? we don't know if she knew. a lot of people taking pictures with me and you over the years. we don't know them. >> no question about it but the consensus from so many of the people who have been complaining about harvey weinstein for years and been ignored is that quote, unquote,
6:16 pm
everybody knew. meryl streep knew and many people believe that oprah winfrey knew as well. so look, the idea that hollywood and democrat strategists somehow that oprah winfrey has a chance in 2020 and she is allowing all this buzz to happen, she has her boyfriend steadman cheering on all of the gossip about a potential run. what would we get? we would get another eight years of the same kind of chicago machine identity liberalism that we got under barack obama who has in part so large a role of oprah winfrey to thank for getting him where he was. and last night all of hollywood and oprah were pretending as if the last eight years of the obama administration didn't happen. and that's to me i think what is most troubling. the unreality of the people in
6:17 pm
the hollywood bubble. >> sean: sean, i go back -- i felt in many ways between vetting obama and reverend wright and black liberation theology and acorn and frank marshall davis. there were a few of us, michelle was one. a few of us that vetted him and after eight years there were very few of us that talked about, what we had 13 million more americans on food stamps, 8 million more in poverty, the lowest labor participation rate since the 70s. worst recovery since the 40s. lowest homeownership rate in 51 years and gave iran $150 billion and doubled the debt. truth, facts and substance matters but i feel i was alone here in a lot of ways. i had michelle like family to me by my side and a few others. that's about it. so why the rush for a savior again when the last savior they chose failed so miserably?
6:18 pm
>> look, i think the thing that's interesting what oprah said last night all americans should agree with and i agree with you. respecting women, creating a safe work environment is something we should all agree on. it should be beyond politics and onideology. something that every american and human supports. that being said i think the interesting thing last night she didn't talk about policy. she didn't talk about how to solve some of the more controversial issues. to your point right now they are about to coronate somebody that gave a speech on something we should all agree on but that you aptly point out is highly hypocritical to the people in that room. it is bill clinton and others. they have given an opportunity to speak out. they overlooked it. >> sean: you know, you had to sit in a room. i don't know how the hell you did your job for as long as you did. i notice in an interview you were hard on yourself and i'm
6:19 pm
thinking you know, you really didn't do that much wrong because they were so hostile. i can't think of a moment they have given trump a break and they gave obama every break. both before, during and after. what is your experience with the press? >> oh, look, i have known a lot of these guys for more than two decades. there was unbelievably a massive hostility never seen before. the pew center backed it up. 63% of the coverage against president trump was negative. only 5% positive. which is three times what that was of obama. they came out guns blazing in the mainstream media. there were upset that they were wrong and they were going to take it out on their coverage. >> sean: last word, michelle. >> i think that hollywood and the democrats need to put down the oprah bong and stop inhaling and probably the reason why they're so desperate is if you look at the current field of democrat potential
6:20 pm
candidates for 2020, you've got elizabeth warren, you have bernie sanders, who will be 79. maxine waters who is cast as the fresh face of the democrat party. no wonder they're grasping for the straw of oprah winfrey. >> sean: good to see you. appreciate you being with us. by the way, on the hannity hotline one guy says tonight, you'll hear it. every time you open your mouth, hannity, a kitten dies. wow, it's rough out here. coming up we expose our breaking story tonight. the fake, phony, anti-trump book the mainstream media is fawning about. breaking news on the f.b.i. news on the agent. part of mueller's special counsel and leaking to the press? we'll explain. nick was born to move. 3 toddlers won't stop him. and neither will lower back pain. because at a dr. scholl's kiosk he got a recommendation for our custom fit orthotic to relieve his foot, knee, or lower back pain,

6:25 pm
>> sean: jake tapper rudely cutting off stephen miller debating the contents of michael wolff's highly discredited book. wolff has been making the media round and casting doubt whether or not you can trust what he wrote in his own book. watch this? >> you have tapes. will you release the tapes? >> i have what every journalist has, i work like every journalist. i have tapes and notes. >> why not produce the evidence? >> that's not what -- i'm not in your business. my evidence is the book. read the book. if it makes sense to you, if it strikes a cord and rings true, it is true. >> sean: if it rings true, it is true. we have a new standard in journalism i guess. he writes about me in the book. i never got a phone call. michael wolff, hello, still waiting. what you wrote is not true and not just me. there are a ton of claims that
6:26 pm
the book -- people are now saying are complete fabrications and lies. meanwhile president trump's former chief strategist steve bannon put out a statement this weekend expressing regets for comments he made in the book about the president and his son donald trump junior and his support for the president's agenda is unwavering and don ald junior is a patriot and good man and no collusion between the trump campaign and russia and the investigation is a witch hunt. let me guess, i bet we'll see steve's remarks being played over and over again for 72 hours like the first remarks and "the new york times" will put it on, well, note, page a-28 where nobody can see it. joining us with reaction former secret service agent dan bongino the new american revolution. the making of a populist
6:27 pm
movement. and kayleigh mcenany. let's start with the reaction to the book. all the facts that he is even admitting that he really didn't have right and he said this will bring down the presidency in a radio interview with the bbc this weekend. >> a fake, fraudulent, phony book. i in my book expose several lies. he said he knows what the president's reaction was when he became president. he got it from steve bannon. when the president was in the kitchen in the small tower, steve bannon was not there. somehow wolff purports to know. he said trump was horrified when he became president. not the case. what happened was trump had a pre-planned acceptance speech. ripped it up, put it aside. wrote a new one when he saw crying hillary voters. those are actions of a leader. >> sean: i know from my own experience on election day
6:28 pm
kellyanne knew we could win. she was acting as though she would lose. i know what he said about me is not true. and then i talked to the president, now president, but the candidate on election day. i called him three times, dan bonino, three. once to say don't believe text it polls. once to say it's looking really good, and the next time before any network called it congratulations, mr. president. those were my three calls. >> one of the funniest parts of the book is where he claims that the president doesn't know who boehner is. he is golfing with him. the book is -- i won't say it's national inquirer stuff. they occasionally got things right. so this is a level above this book. the inside story. here is what's really going on with this book and why the
6:29 pm
media needs this book to be true. the democrats are panicking right now, sean, the tax cuts have them running for the hills. they thought it would flame out like obamacare and it didn't. they thought the failure of the tax cut plan would empty trump's political bank account. once his political capital was empty they would move to impeach. now it doesn't look likely. they know he is moving with a conservative agenda that will work. the economy is turning around and they're panicking. that's where the book comes in and provides a basis for round two, the 25th amendment that he is mentally unstable which is quite possibly the dumbest narrative i've ever heard. >> sean: our breaking news. you write a lot about this in your book the new american revolution. i see this president -- i haven't changed my views since i supported reagan, all right? i know, a little before your time. you are the next generation right behind me. the point is he has never waivered on his promises. we had a year's worth of
6:30 pm
incredible economic success and they don't like that he is actually standing up to murdering dictators. >> absolutely. he is achieving at record rates, sean. you look at circuit judges confirmed at a rate never seen before. it's a record. you look at stock market breaking records. you look at tax cuts. we haven't had that in three decades. regulations being rescinded at a fast rate. >> sean: obama failed. why can't anybody in the media acknowledge the fairly? >> he was an utter failure. this president is achieving. when i sat with a panel at cnn with eight liberals. it was tough. you sent me nice notes of encouragement throughout the election. this was the voice of sanity for jeffrey lord and i this show. >> what do you make about the oprah phenomena. it's reminiscent to me yes, we can, obama, change, change, change. we had eight years of it and it
6:31 pm
failed miserably and things are working now. why do they want a savior? why are they so full of hatred for this president? >> because the democrats, their entire ideology is built on the cult personality. what's the essence of conservatism at its core? big all rights from god. we have a lone star that guides us tall time. the person that gets us there is a vehicle. he isn't a golden calf for us. not the case with the left. their load star is the state. the representative of the state is the politician. they need a golden calf. oprah is the golden calf of the day. >> sean: congratulations on the new book, caylee, when we come back our report john solomon, sara carter this hour with new explosive reports on the anti-trump agent within the f.b.i. and new texts. they'll be joined by a lawyer,
6:32 pm

6:36 pm
( ♪ ) >> sean: fox news contributor sara carter and the hill's john solomon out with brand-new reports detailing the ongoing allegations in the house and senate as to whether the f.b.i. agent, remember peter strzok and other f.b.i. employees may have been responsible for media leaks surrounding the russia investigation. joining us to break it all down are the hill's john solomon, sara carter and along with us the author of the best seller alan dershowitz is with us. john, we'll start with you. basically they are admitting when they talk about oh, they have advance knowledge of this thing, oh, the article is out but hidden behind the pay wall and then it gets -- goes through the whole tone is anti-bureau. just a tiny bit from us page
6:37 pm
replies, then the cf article. are they not referencing their leaking to the press and what does that mean? how profound is that? >> i don't think we know entirely. investigators have a strong suspicion these text messages point to an operation inside the f.b.i. that was leaking information, spinning reporters, tracking down reporters. there is a whole effort where the two of them are trying to track down the great reporter from "the new york times." why else would they be trying to track down a reporter unless someone wanted to talk to them? i read through hundreds of messages over the weekend. i remember the moment when james comey in his testimony said f.b.i. don't give a rip about politics and don't leak. after you read these messages thinking about these two f.b.i. agents cared a lot about politics and monitoring the media like they were a press office. >> sean: i keep hearing, sara, we'll learn a lot more between the connection between some people in the intelligence
6:38 pm
community, c.i.a. and elsewhere about their relationships with the media. my question for the moment, one of the worst parts of this is they are looking up the names of the family, the kids of a particular "new york times" reporter? they don't like his reporting? >> we don't know, do we? these are the questions that the committee members want to have answered and why they want to interview strzok, they want to interview lisa page. remember, this is just what we've been looking at. these text messages between the two of them. you also have general counsel james baker, who they want to question and andrew wiseman who is over at the doj. >> sean: about what page advising mccabe? >> exactly. the questions they have regarding the insurance policy with mccabe. so they will want to question andrew mccabe, the deputy director. he will be leaving in march. >> sean: a few hundred texts and slow release to these house
6:39 pm
and senate committees. 9500? >> 9500. they will receive those soon. we're expecting a lot by january 11th. >> sean: you see this type of leaking. i have followed your comments on this very, very closely. and then you see that the trump/russia collusion narrative is dying and withering on a vine and now they have moved into a collective media bubble. this president, we have to go to the 25th amendment. what is your reaction to all of it? >> 25th amendment is totally irrelevant to what is going on. it was designed for somebody who had a stroke or was involved in a serious accident and was incapacitated and requires the vice president, the cabinet, 2/3 of each house of congress. it's a fool's errand. it's not going to happen. what they're trying to do, though, now that they couldn't criminalize the political
6:40 pm
differences they're trying to say oh maybe we can't get him on crime but we'll show that he has mental problems, that he is disturbed. the guy on cnn today was talking about he has alzheimer's and should be subjected to a neurological exam. that's dangerous. they did that in the former soviet union. i represented some dissidents in the soviet union sent to mental hospitals. they did it in china and south africa. i was at harvard, roy wrote a book about being committed to a psychiatric hospital. it was a pervasive way that tir ran call governments use the power of psychiatry to try to not answer the merits. we don't want to debate the merits. he is crazy. the american psychiatric
6:41 pm
association said it is wrong for any psychiatrist ever to diagnose anybody without them examining them. i taught law and psychiatry for 25 years at harvard and co-edited the textbook on law the psychiatry. the first rule is you do not diagnose based on political grounds or -- >> sean: i read the synthesis of mind control. everything you are skunks -- discussing. >> sean: if you don't like somebody vote against them. >> i voted for hillary clinton. >> sean: it's the only thing we disagree on. you are doing it from a constitutional law perspective and the threat to the constitution. this is a clear and present danger. let me bring john and sara back in. you add to that when you start surveilling, unmasking, you don't minimize and then you leak raw intelligence. they did that to general flynn
6:42 pm
and i'm sure, i will bet everything i have they said oh, you either agree that you lied to us or we're going after your son. >> of course they did. >> that's definitely what i'm hearing from my sources. right now, sean, there are 27 leak investigations at the department of justice. that's triple what they had over the last three years. 27 leak investigations, one of those i guarantee you is general flynn. the leak, the classified leak between general flynn and his conversation. it was a major crime. we're looking at those leaks and we are also looking at the inspector general now waiting on that inspector general's report. >> it is only a crime if it's leaking grand jury minutes. just leaking is a violation of their rules but it is not itself a crime. leaking has been a weapon of prosecutors for years. i've had prosecutors tell me implicitly if you don't plead your client guilty you will be

shocked at what will come out about him. >> sean: death by a thousand cuts. >> i'm against it whether it's leaking against hillary clinton or leaking against donald trump. it's wrong, you don't leak. >> sean: john solomon, we only have a small percentage of these and i'm like wow. if we only have hundreds and there are thousands, what's next? >> yeah, i think the question is who will follow the bread crumb trail to create the russia narrative. we have to get to the bottom of it. >> sean: great work. when we come back tomi lahren goes to the streets of california and talking to citizens about being a sanctuary state. you don't want to miss these responses. like... cliché foil characters scheming against a top insurer for no reason? nah. so, why don't we like flo? she has the name your price tool, and we want it. but why? why don't we actually do any work?
6:44 pm
why do you only own one suit? it's just the way it is, underdeveloped office character. you're right. thanks, bill. no, you're bill. i'm tom. you know what? no one cares.

6:47 pm
>> president trump: we are proudly supporting the men and women of law enforcement including our wonderful ice officers and border patrol agents. these are incredible people who endorsed me during the campaign and they are incredible. [applause] they're doing a great job at the border, by the way. we are going to end chain migration. we are going to end the lottery system. and we are going to build the wall. [cheering and applause]
6:48 pm
>> sean: we need two or three hundred miles of that wall by november 28 so people can see it and they'll believe it. earlier the president promised to reform our immigration system that is broken. last monday california became a sanctuary state when the law took effect preventing state and local police about asking people about their immigration status or cooperating with federal law enforcement activities in most cases. tomi lahren hit the streets to ask citizens of california what they think of this new law. watch this. ♪ >> were you aware california is a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants? >> of course i know that. >> how do you feel? >> i think it's great. it is finally -- it's been a matter of time we need immigrants to be protected. being a sanctuary state is perfect. >> why are we making it difficult for them to become legal? they don't pay their taxes and
6:49 pm
don't do what you complain about constantly on your channel if it's not legal. so why not make it legal for them to do it? and then you stop complaining. >> you can't have it both ways. if we'll benefit from cheap labor then we also have to give them the benefits that every american citizen benefits have. >> being an immigrant from mexico myself i think the opportunities and integrate workers to take certain jobs that many currently employed americans won't and i think it's a good opportunity. >> it's all right. i love it. i'll admit i have family members and myself that are illegal. i mean just being free you are out here trying to do yourself. >> do you know it was a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants? >> i did. >> what do you think about that? >> i think we need to come up with an immigration bill that will solve all the problems and help immigrants that are here illegally transmit and become u.s. citizens. >> i don't think they should come over here. you said illegal immigrants? i don't think they -- they
6:50 pm
should stay where they are at. why do they have to be over here? >> how do you feel about legal immigrants that have done it the right way and paid a lot of money and waited time to come into this country. do you feel it invalidates everything they worked for to let illegal immigrants receive sanctuary in california? >> i don't think it's fair you pit one against the other. one came fairly and one came in a sense -- >> unfairly? >> it is not such a black and white thing. they came to feed their families. >> if the laws aren't being enforced is that a problem? >> it's one of these unenforceible laws. >> i'm an immigrant and i had to go through process. it took 3 1/2 years to come to america. i think everybody should go through a process. >> they've always been around. they've only become part of this popular conversation because of the way that society has attempted to villainize immigrants.
6:51 pm
>> they do it illegally because they don't have the means to get in or a safer way to get in either. >> illegal is illegal. we want to be compassionate but we also have the rule of law. >> sean: tomi lahren joins us, wow, that's your state, right? >> it is my state, sean. what can i tell you? >> sean: 13 1/2% income tax rate in the state. doesn't texas and florida, they have pretty good infrastructure. better than new york. why is there that overwhelming feeling. is this a california thing to you? >> well, to be fair there are a lot of californians moving to florida and texas and elsewhere because of california and the rules and the regulations and because of things like it being a sanctuary state. but i have to tell you, breaking news, california is not a lost cause, i promise you it is not. there are so many undercover conservatives in this state that i spoke to that are level
6:52 pm
headed that don't like the fact it's a sanctuary state. sometimes there are others, though, that are a little louder. squeaky wheel gets a grease a lot of times. >> sean: why should they get federal tax dollars in any way if they are literally aiding and abetting law breaking as a state? >> they absolutely shouldn't. there are a lot of californians into the whole peace, love and welcome everyone unless you are tomi lahren and fox news. they want to welcome everyone and bring everyone in until you remind them that legal immigrants had to spend a lot of money and wait a lot of time to get into this country and into the state. then their tune changed a little bit. it was quite fascinating. >> sean: i was really interesting as i was watching this package you put together and i'm interested that a lot of people knew you, knew about fox news, knew our opinions. one guy in particular looks
6:53 pm
like a black shirt to me and the other guy in the gray shirt and i'm thinking how was their reaction to you and the channel? because they are right. there are a few of us that are conservatives that speak. i don't know if they ever met one before. >> well, i want to be fair. we did encounter a lot of really respectful people that liked what we do on fox news. i spent time in west hollywood. i don't know if you are familiar with that. it's a very liberal area. it is the epicenter of the resistance. and they certainly knew who i was and there were some words i can't repeat on national television they were screaming at me. they saw the fox news mic and weren't thrilled we were there. they told us to get out. they are supposed to be the loving and tolerant left welcoming everyone unless you are fox news and tomi lahren. then you are supposed to get out. interesting the way that works.
6:54 pm
>> sean: the hannity hotline is next. it says every time i open my mouth, a kitten dies, wow, that's cold. another video of the day straight ahead. not just being in the military, but at home. she thinks she's the boss. she only had me by one grade. we bought our first home together in 2010. his family had used another insurance product but i was like well i've had usaa for a while, why don't we call and check the rates? it was an instant savings and i should've changed a long time ago. there's no point in looking elsewhere really. we're the tenneys and we're usaa members for life. usaa. get your insurance quote today.

6:58 pm
>> time for the video of the day. tonight's clip brought to you by liberal joe and mika brzezinski who decided to share the terrible strife that she and all her elitist friends are forced to endure abroad. >> i had friends that went to paris over the holiday and they said they were viscerally embarrassed to be americans. they said it was the first time that it was chilling that they didn't even want to share where they were from. >> the vapeors, the horror. mika's friends. many european with loose
6:59 pm
immigration laws. maybe they would take a huge chunk of your income in exchange for -- time for messages on the hannity hotline. every time i speak apparently i kill a kitten. listen. >> sean, i wanted to let you know that every time you open your mouth a small kitten dies. you need to get back on your ocd meds, bud, because your ocd and an all retentiveness is driving everybody nuts. you keep repeating the same thing. >> kind of like you, you fat little [bleep] talk about everybody going after the president. why do you keep [bleep] hillary clinton you [bleep]. >> laura: i don't want a kitten to die. every time i open it a kitten dies. i love kittens. i love abbott and costello.
7:00 pm
we want to hear from you even if you hate me. let not your troubled. that's all the time we have left. we will never be the destroy trump media or establishment. that's our promise. let not your heart. here is jesse waters. >> that was me on the hotline. >> she used the same joke last week. what is this, beat up hannity here? really? >> the same thing as last year. everybody does it. >> you are on the list, too, i'm warning you. >> i'm next. >> congratulations on filling in for laura tonight. watch the five every day. >> this is the "the ingraham angle" and i'm jesse waters in new york in for laura ingraham. we have a great lineup of stories for you tonight. huma abiden is one of hillary clinton's closest friends could be in serious hot water. something she told the f.b.i. under oath doesn't match what was revealed in a batch of her emails. plus th
