6:00 pm
holds its own. thank you for joining us. >> tucker: our week was over. great seeing you back at 8:00 p.m. monday. sean hannity is next. >> sean: welcome to "hannity." firing now, president trump is firing back at "the new york times" calling the ordering of robert mueller as fake news. this is the biggest non-story ever being hyped by the liberal media that we all know hates president trump. the reason the brain-dead partisan press is breathlessly spreading the fake news in their echo chamber is because they want to create a distraction. they do not want you, the american people, to know with the biggest story in their life times that involve real evidence of wrongdoings and crimes they have missed. it's been a huge week of revelations about corruptions at the highest levels of the fbi
6:01 pm
and doj and tonight we have even more. new text messages. we'll share with you from the trump-bashing fbi lovers, peter strzok and lisa page and it will prove we've been on the right page. and fox news found the memo detailing major fisa abuses against the trump campaign, that will be released likely next week and tonight a stunning report hillary clinton protected a senior adviser on her 2008 campaign accused of sexually harassing a young staffer. a lot to get to. we start with friday's breaking news and opening monologue. glad you're with us. members of the trump-hating media, we know you're watching. news flash, president trump did not -- let me repeat, did not
6:02 pm
fire the special counsel robert mueller. you ideologues need to take a deep breath or xanax or drink and breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth and see if you can stop with the hysteria and listen closely, president trump did not fire the special counsel robert mueller. in fact, the president and his legal team have been more than cooperative. they've voluntarily handed over 20,000 pages and robert mueller has collected 1.4 million pages of documents from the campaign. then there's this, accord to "the new york times" and other media outlets, president trump demanded robert mueller be fired. fox news is reporting the president did not order him to be removed. instead there was a conversation in june given mueller's massive
6:03 pm
conflicts of interests. that's is why last night i did not -- and will never in the future, trust "the new york times." they've gotten it wrong time after time after time and why president trump is ripping the paper of record. let's take a look. >> fakes news, folks. fake news. >> what's your message? >> typical "the new york times" story. >> sean: it didn't matter to the liberal mainstream media and last anytime when "the new york times" posted this story ten minutes before this story, the media goes in a frenzy and foamed at the mouth. it's funny on one hand and sad because journalism's dead. watch this. >> the president of the united states tried to fire the independent counsel robert mueller iii. does that rise to the level of an impeachable finance?
6:04 pm
>> it's a question whether he's ignorant or corrupt. you lean towards corrupt. >> donald trump has done everything possible to undermine, obstruct, demean and halt this legitimate investigation -- >> it adds to the mounting evidence there's a serious obstruction case here. >> i don't know how this movie ends but there is a lot of bloodshed in the got father -- godfather and it's going to be a rough year. >> sean: it's predictable from the news media. they never waste an opportunity to smear the president and don't care about the truth. their goal is to damage and destroy donald trump. you see it hour in, hour out, day by day and minute by minute. that's why the media has been caught in the wrong, countless times, major news stories. from last year, fake news, cnn,
6:05 pm
the old network, they falsely reported donald trump jr. received an e-mail on wikileaks and fake news, cnn got the date of the e-mail wrong. it came one day after wikileaks made the dnc documents public. remember abc's brian ross wrong when he reported general michael flynn was going to testify president trump order him during the campaign to contact russian officials. that fake news tanked the stock market and ross had to issue a correction saying it happened during a transition. a huge difference. he's now banned from covering president trump. i can think of other people that should be banned as well. we have a dishonest washington post reporter david weigl
6:06 pm
showing a tiny crowd and the caption reads "packed to the rafters." here's the problem, the problem is deceptive because it was taken before most people had gotten in there and he later apologied and deleted the tweet. that's your media at its finest at work and those are only a few of the many examples of epic fake news screw-ups and anonymous source, of course. anyti "the new york times" reported about mueller and there's hysteria, the sky is falling and breathless coverage. not surprising for over a year they've been pushing conspiracy theories. they've been chasing ghosts about trump/russia collusion and there's been no evidence and the media's been owe believius to the biggest
6:07 pm
oblivious story of their life time and they've missed the boat. this is going to make watergate look like an afterthought and only a fraction of the information has come out. we've been reporting night after night after massive, severe constitutional abuses commit top-ranking obama/fbi officials against the trump campaign. new evidence is showing the clinton e-mail investigation was a sham. it was rigged. the fix was in. and tonight we have new text messages from corrupt trump-bashing fbi lovers peter strzok and lisa page and was leaking information to the media. look at the date, october 28, 2016, after news broke the news broke abadin's e-mails on wiener's computers.
6:08 pm
and page finishes saying mike's phone is on fire. strzok responds it's on the news then adds, you may want to tell devlin to turn on cnn and strzok says sorry and page relies, he knows. he just got handed a note and strzok says, ah, he's asking about it now and page says, it was funny. minutes after the texts barrett writes e-mails were copies of clinton e-mails the fbi has already looked at. we reached out to the reporter and he told us, no comment. shocking. so we have what looks like leaks from page and strzok and there's so many more. 3 50,000 total. it's only the tip of the iceberg. go back to february 2016, page
6:09 pm
messages her boyfriend, strzok, one more thing, she may be our next president the last thing you need is us going in loaded for bear. do you think she'll care it's foredoj than fbi? and so they're worried about investigating clinton because she may end up mad at them and revenge and they're trying to help her. then months later in may, remember, james comey and strzok and other key fbi officials started righting clinton's exoneration statements months before interviewing her and 17 other key witnesses. when do you write an exoneration before an investigation? this is where they changed the language from the legal standard, gross negligence is a crime. they take that out and put in extreme carelessness. means the same thing but legally a big distinction. they give clinton the get out of
6:10 pm
jail free card and alter language about foreign actors likely hacking clinton's server putting people's lives at risk and removed the reference to e-mailing president obama which means he knew with the server, which means he needs to be investigate and put under oath. in other words, the fix on the e-mail server scandal was in. remember, any of these issues we're talking about with the e-mail server scandals destroying information and destroying special access program information. they're all crimes. deleting 33,000 subpoenaed e-mails, crimes. acid watching, bleaching, crimes, bashing devices with hammers, obstruction. have you strzok and page putting the fix in with comey and mccabe and loretta lynch all knew and they're talking about the need
6:11 pm
of a special counsel. on march 18, strzok writes, thought of the perfect person and page asks who and pat who senator grassly said is fitzgerald of the valerie plame affair. and you have to give me credit if we go with him and delay briefing him until i can get back and do it. in other words, with his own prejudice and own point of view and own spin. late next week or later, he says. strzok says, i can work with him again and damn, we'd get blank done. page follows up with, i know, like i said we discussed boss and him yesterday. on may 13, 2016, page follows up on the idea, she says to strzok, hey, forgot to ask if you mentioned the whole special counsel thing to andy. we assume that's fbi director andrew mccabe. what strzok and page is
6:12 pm
stunning. strzok had a massive role in the entire clinton e-mail probe. he oversaw the interview with hillary clinton and her top aides long after the wrote the exoneration and page, you may remember, was the legal counsel and they're both saying special counsel is needed which means they had doubt the fbi would do a real investigation they didn't do. and senator ron johnson also released messages on may 19. strzok appears to be talking about getting an offer to join mueller's investigation. this is it key. strzok says, my answer's no, i don't want to join that investigation. then the lead division and then i think, wait a minute, it may be a case that will be in the history books. a chapter like you tell me about my extra time in the field and all the field cases, would you trade it? a million people add and staff
6:13 pm
jobs -- this is a chance to do. it may be the most important case of our lives. around 30 minutes later strzok asks page the question, an investigation leading to impeachment. there's no there, there. it seems like mueller would impeach the president and wanted to be part of history but there's no there, there. and two days after mueller was named special counsel strzok says if i thought it was likely i'd be there. i hesitate because my gut sense and concern there's no big there, there. so strzok a top intelligence official signed the paper to start the phony russian investigation and saying he knew from the start mueller would be carrying out a which wasn't and revelations about loretta lynch and her involvement in the
6:14 pm
clinton e-mail server cover-up. it's june 2016, bill clinton meets loretta lynch on the tarmac and said they just talked about grandchildren and she said she'd accept whatever the fbi conclude. all is this before hillary clinton's interview. that happened on the 4th of july weekend, three days later. after lynch's statement, she's going to step back and let the fbi decide and she'll go along with what they decide after meeting bill clinton on the tarmac and strzok writes timing looks like hell talking about lynch and clinton on the tarmac. page adds, yeah, awful timing. since she knows who charges will be brought.
6:15 pm
no decision was made and four days later hilary's interview and later comey's press conference and lays out his case hilary should be indict and have strzok and lynch and mccabe and comey knowing clinton will never get charged and the obama administration put the fix in. the corruption here -- if you're a "new york times" writer is unprecedented. you should be covering a real story. when you put it together here's what it all means. you have hillary clinton, we now know fixed the primary against bernie sanders or i'll use donna brazile's word, put the fix in, that allowed clinton stay in the presidential race and they want her to beat donald trump so they
6:16 pm
overlook the crimes with the incontrovertible evidence and they try to influence the election with a bought and paid for phony russian dossier full of salacious lies and propaganda. the obama administration took the dossier and weaponized the tools of intelligence and invest and targeted members of the trump campaign and later the incoming president if this isn't watergate on steroids and every person isn't prosecuted to every extent of the law we have shredded our constitution. have you powerful officials in the fbi and doj, clearly trying to circumvent what is the whistle you, the american people. they did not want donald trump to become president. we can never let this happen again. the only way to do that is to
6:17 pm
make sure we get every fact and bit of truth and expose it to the person s involved need to be exposed. that's what constitutional republicans have been trying to do, reless release the memo and what we know is we're told it will show severe fisa abuses against the trump campaign and the president-elect and his team. and fox news is learning that memo is going to be released likely in a matter of days. it is imperative, keep the pressure on and keep calling members of congress. demand, release the memo. the number will get through, 202- 224-3121. put pressure on them, tell congress to release the memo. we deserve the truth and while
6:18 pm
they're at it release all 50,000 texts. joining us with reaction fox news national security strategist bob gorka. look, it's a lot to take in. we take every bit of new text messages and put it with the old text messages and other information we gleaned over the year. all facts. now we have a very clear picture of what went on. >> yes, increasingly the evidence is mounting now that strzok and page and others at the fbi were engaged in what's called a corrupt purpose. that's important because that's in the obstruction of justice statute. these messages reveal they knew the charges were enough against
6:19 pm
hillary clinton and changed the language from charging her to exonerating her and third, they did it for political reasons because they wanted her to be president. they thought she would be president. they didn't want to anger or alienate her. >> sean: comey, strzok, page, lynch, they all knew ahead of time. don't write an exoneration before an investigation. did they obstruct justice? >> if they did it for a political reason and -- >> sean: for any reason? >> thank goodness for electronic technology because this is the smoking gun evidence of their motivations and motivations is how you prove obstruction of justice. >> sean: sebastian gorka, you were in the white house during a lot of the time. i'm sure it took time and attention from governing the country. maybe that was the goal of some people but the president still had a great year. when you see the level the use
6:20 pm
of fisa courts and weaponry, to me it's chilling as someone who believes in equal justice under the law and the u.s. constitution. >> it is truly chilling as the child of parents who escaped communism, i never thought i'd see the day where the vaunted fbi, people inside the agency, senior management individuals would be openly talking about giving special treatment to an individual they wanted to become president. we were in the white house -- i was secure there were no issues. the president told me they will find nothing because there was no collusion. we've been accused of obstruction of justice, work the russians and we now know inside
6:21 pm
obama's fbi there was a conspiracy to convert the course of justice. you mishandle classified information that's a felony and -- >> sean: let's talk about the media. you're right on every point and so is gregg. what about the media, they'll go with an anonymous source about a story that never came to fruition with donald trump. he's asking if there's conflicts. he says no and they make that big news. with all the evidence -- >> let's put this in context. you and your team have been doing the heavy lifting every night in your monologue. one day the data will be used in a court of law to prosecute
6:22 pm
these people and what are they doing? a week ago they're asking the vice admiral the president's surgeon, whether he's still drinking diet coke every day. this is the biggest scandal in modern american history and the media either ignores it or is complicit. that's the outrage. >> sean: does robert mueller have a conflict and if he's not fired, how's that a story. >> it's a legitimate concern of the president. >> sean: yes. >> and for the nation, for goodness sakes. i've written about it ad nauseam. the journalists have been howling, this is obstruction of justice. they've never read the law and it requires a corrupt act by the president. >> sean: that didn't happen. >> he was engaging in a
6:23 pm
legitimate act according to them trying to remove mueller because of his myriad of conflicts of interests and replacing him with somebody who would be legitimate, objective, fair and reasonable. >> sean: a reasonable thing anyone would do. >> it's not obstruction of justice and these idiot journalists -- i've watched them all day long -- >> sean: they're not journalists. >> they're not. it takes a nanosecond to look it up. they're sheep. >> sean: thank you both. coming up newt gingrich sounds off on the new "the new york times" exclusive reports where nothing happened. straight ahead. heartburn. no one burns on my watch! try alka seltzer ultra strength heartburn relief chews. with more acid-fighting power than tums chewy bites.

6:28 pm
>> historians are going to look back on this period as schizophrenic insanity. on one hand have you genuine fbi information coming out about clearly covering up for hillary clinton in ways that are auto astonishing this won't make page one of "the new york times." even if the president got angry and said i'd love to fire mueller, there's no event there. the idea the president is culpable of not liking mueller and that is somehow going to be an obstruction of justice tells you how desperate the left is getting. >> sean: former speaker of the house, newt gingrich, calling out the schizophrenic insanity. now fox news contributor, sara
6:29 pm
carter. a non-story about a non-event. that sums up the hysteria yesterday. but what they missed yesterday is what you were and we were reporting and that is just how abusively bias strzok and page were and how many people were in the loop knowing the fix was in as it relates to doing a real investigation into hillary clinton before they interviewed her, exonerations before any investigation. so that's going to be frustrating as you've been unpeeling every layer of this onion. >> as investigation comes out about the fbi and text messaging and peter strzok and lisa page and as more evidence starts to unravel, you get a leak like this that goes to "the new york times." it's a non story. the president has every right to
6:30 pm
question whether special counsel mueller is right for the job and has the right to discuss it privately with his attorneys. as we see, nothing happened. so he didn't fire special counsel mueller. he talked about the circumstances around special counsel mueller. there was no order to fire him. what is frustrating is the american people are not getting well informed by all these very important news agencies, "the new york times," "the washington post", cnn. we know the fbi -- and let's go back to the story we talked about the other day, sean, the fact the doj said we lost five months of text messages through a technical glitch and you won't be able to get them and now they have them. why did they say that to begin
6:31 pm
with, what are they hiding? >> sean: why didn't rob rosenstein before the committee was going to get the subpoenaed documents was begging paul ryan, please, please, don't release this. one role the judicial watch has played key in getting information -- i know you file a lot of freedom of information act requests. it looks like we'll get the memos next week probably after the state of the union but why do we have to wait for the 50,000 text messages. okay, maybe they can look for information that puts someone in harm's way but that doesn't take that long. >> we have numerous requests to which the text messages are receivi receivive -- responsive and lawsuits and getting the run around and they told us if you
6:32 pm
want them, sue us again. and we did sue them. we asked for the text message and sued and a few hours later they found them. it's about the news story that was planted this week about the president trump's concerns about mueller. the text messages, the gamesmanship there, the justice department fighting the house on releasing a summary memo of the underlying material. it's all about protecting the mueller operation. what i think the headline is in the "the new york times" and "the washington post" he's looking at the firing of comey. why is he near this investigation given that conflict? why is the president the one having to raise it? where's the justice department, rob rosenstein to make sure it's not conflict free. >> sean: rosenstein, comey are
6:33 pm
in the memo. that's the one leak we got. next week's a big news week. even the memo is only a small portion of what's coming out in the case. i know you're in the middle of two big investigative reports you'll be breaking next week. one about andrew weisman if i'm allowed to tip your hand for you, being the nice guy i am, what's coming next week and how big do you think the memo ends up being. >> first, it's true. we need to focus on members of the special counsel and andrew weisman has come up over and over. he's very important because he's a central part of the investigation. i do have something coming out next week with regard to andrew weisman. another story that's going to be out next week is the fisa memo. we expect that to be out some time after the state of the union in midweek. it's explosive. i know this not just from
6:34 pm
talking to congressional members and other law enforcement officials who have gone to congress as whistleblowers about fisa abuses. it should shock every american and it's a way to keep the country up check. it's one part of so many more pieces of the puzzle. a lot of the information is classified. it's classified information so we can't get our hand on it. they'll go ahead and put out the pieces, redact it, i think after the fisa memo. >> andrew weisman, the number two at mueller's operation send an e-mail supporting sally yates' order and went to hillary clinton's election-night party. >> sean: and he leaked information about paul manafort before he started investigating him to the a.p. so many conflicts all coming together. next week will be a massive news week on to the state of the union and the memo being
6:35 pm
6:38 pm
6:39 pm
dissolved solids remain? what if we filter it over and over? (sighing) oh dear. thank goodness zerowater's five-stage filter gets to all zeroes the first time. so, maybe it's time to upgrade. get more out of your water. get zerowater. unemployment claims are the lowest in almost half a century. i'm here to deliver a simple message, there's never been a better time to hire, invest and grow in the united states. we've just enacted the most significant tax cut and reform in american history.
6:40 pm
as president of the united states i will always put america first just like the leaders of other countries should put their country first also. but america first does not mean america alone. when the united states grows so does the world. >> sean: that was the president earlier in front of world leaders in switzerland and putt pushing his america-first agenda. after his big speech he tweeted quote, heading back from an exciting two days in davos, switzerland, my speech on the american revival was well received. many people i met will be investing in the usa. if he's right, european ceos praised his giant tax cuts and have made huge investments in the u.s., that means more good jobs for the forgotten men and
6:41 pm
women in the country and here at home a heated battle over immigration reform is ramping up. the president released his frame wok for immigration reform including funds for the border well system in exchange for daca individuals are already attacking hit. listen to what nancy pelosi had to say. >> that plan is a campaign to make america white again. they want the ransom for these bi children to be billions. >> sean: chuckie schumer rejected it and prompting trump to tweet, daca is made increasingly difficult by the fact crying chuck schumer took such a beatdown on the shutdown he is unable to react.
6:42 pm
lou dobbs joins us. i want the wall. >> okay. >> sean: democrats don't want the wall and don't want daca because that's what they want to run on in 2018 and lindsey graham and jeff "snow" flake are helping the democrats. am i right or wrong? >> schumer will be there and the democrats will be there and lie through their teeth like they did since ronald reagan in 1986 with the first amnesty. by the way, it's not a border wall anymore. it's a border wall system -- well, we're going to bill ramparts around the ports of entry. it's not a wall. it's a trust fund. don't you feel better about that? >> sean: i don't. listen, there's no deal for the president at all unless he gets
6:43 pm
the money. >> he says the border agents prefer a see-through wall -- >> with a light veneer and chiffon on the side. it should be a big beautiful wall with big beautiful doors. >> sean: the border agents say they want that. >> that's great. but they're not testing that with the commandos. all i know is the forgotten men and women the president campaigned paid for are still forgotten when it comes to amnesty. >> sean: a hundred house republicans demanded repeal and replace. seven democrats, 2015 vote for clean repeal and in 2017 they wouldn't do it.
6:44 pm
we have lindsey graham, jeff snowflake and others without intention. they want amnesty. here's your trade-off. do you pick the roll if you can eliminate chain immigration -- >> like under the four pillars from the prior administration -- right now have you nothing brother. >> sean: why are you being difficult to me, i'm your friend. >> you are my friend. i'm your friend. you're being difficult with me suggesting it's a proposal -- >> sean: no, if the president could get the wall and end the chain immigration and the visa lottery, would you accept what the democrats are demanding or is that a big deal. that's my question. >> i don't know what they're demanding. there was one for $800,000 -- >> sean: no, $3.6 million. >> right now donald trump has
6:45 pm
tripled barack obama's $800,000 i'm not mad at the president in anyway. he's doing outstanding things and outstanding year. he should do what he's done on the economy and military and law enforcement. making sure every damn thing he's promised comes to pass and he'll go into history forever. >> sean: tell me if you agree, if the republicans don't build 200 or 300 miles of wall by november it will hurt them significantly in snow november, true or false? >> they couldn't even screen out erosion -- >> >> sean: so they'll break another promise? >> are you kidding? i don't know what to think, you know the answer. democrats are the problem. the left is the problem. >> sean: so are liberal republicans. huge problem. >> you mentioned graham and flake -- i can't remember.
6:46 pm

6:50 pm
6:51 pm
and lost weeks of pay. and we reached out and they said quote, to ensure a safe working environment the campaign had a process to address complaint of misconduct or harassment when matters arose they were reviewed in accordance with the policies and appropriate action was taken. here with reaction, pam mondi and radio talk show host geena lauden. i'm looking at that and thinking the same campaign paying people less and persecuted christians and jews, that hilary? >> that hilary. it's not a partisan issue. if this is a republican woman i'd be saying the same thing. she covered it up. her campaign manager said she should fire stryder yet kept him off after doing this to a young staffer. how does that young staffer the
6:52 pm
rest of her career another woman did that to her. after the metoo movement. >> she not only covers up ann -- any wrongdoing and so much for helping young women. she's been discredited in this as has her democrat party. >> sean: look what we've been covering and uncovered. how does she fix a primary campaign against bernie? how does hillary clinton have comey and strzok and people who know mccabe and loretta lynch. how do they know she's not being
6:53 pm
investigated for felonies in the e-mail server scandal. how does she get to fix a phony russian investigation propaganda and how does she get the phony dossier as a basis for a fisa warrant and the media ignores it. you're an attorney general, explain. >> the justice department better not. i'm sure jeff sessions and his staff will be opening an investigation against her. they have to. the fake dossier and everything she did. it's been horrible. she can condone what her husband did but a young staffer on her campaign -- we just sent a bipartisan letter to congress to address issues like this. shame on her. she has to be investigated. she must be investigated and this -- now we're finally seeing her real colors. every station in the country isn't going to cover this story,
6:54 pm
6:57 pm
let's see why people everywhere are upgrading their water filter to zerowater. start with water that has a lot of dissolved solids. pour it through brita's two-stage filter. dissolved solids remain? what if we filter it over and over? (sighing) oh dear. thank goodness zerowater's five-stage filter gets to all zeroes the first time. so, maybe it's time to upgrade. get more out of your water. get zerowater.
6:58 pm
>> sean: all right. so many parents know what it's like to have a child that doesn't ever want to go to bed and miss a thing. when a british man's daughter kept leaving night after night he tucked her in and thought he put in a second safety gate. he guessed wrong. here's the video of the day. [crying]
6:59 pm
[laughter] >> that's amazing. what a great kid. time for "the hannity hot line." >> my cat doesn't like you. >> i want to say you remind me, don't take this wrong you remind me of an older eddie muenster more than fred flintstone. have a great day and go after those liberal snowflakes because they deserve it. >> hannity you're supposed to be so bright you can't pronounce the word remember, not member. you dumb [bleep]. >> sean: you have anything to stay, sound off. we'll always be fair and balance and we're not the destroy trump media and will not give up on the stories they're not reporting on and have a big news
