groupthink. in whose clutches this country finds itself. break free, think for yourself if you can, despite how they attack you, it's worth it. of course, dvr it. back tomorrow. carly shimkus continues, will she continue to win? sean hannity up next. >> sean: great show as always, tucker. welcome to "hannity." breaking now, we will describe in detail how the democratic party is the party of petulant children. they proved it by sitting on their hands last night and pouting like children while president trump was highlighting america's successes at the state of the union address, and the out of touch liberal media, historical upper president trump's speech that you, the american people, overwhelmingly approved. we will show yougl the moneyso unhinged examples sources are telling us that the release of a classified memo showing fisa
10:01 pm
abuses against the trump campais early as monday. plus, some top officials are absolutely terrified about what that memo will expose ma should be. we'll explain. that and much more, tonight's breaking news opening monologue. ♪ the president delivered a historic state of the union address, almost 50 million americans watch last night and by the way, by far, more peopleh watched the fox news channel. we really want to say thank you so much for trusting us. we want to earn that trust every day. the speech are elected the president's many accomplishments and he touted how it is -- he is an acting reagan style conservative principles and we are workingng for the vast majority of democrats, led by negative nancy pelosi, they hated every second of it, they set on their hands with a scowl on their face, refusing to applaud things you would think they would want to applaud, historically low unemployment in
10:02 pm
the country. just take a look at some of the examples of the democrats just playing petty partisan politics. take a look. >> we are finally seeing rising wages. [applause] african-american unemployment stands at the lowest rate ever recorded. [applause] hispanic-american unemployment has also reached the lowest levels in history. [applause] >> sean: we will have more on the democrats ridiculous behavior coming up later in the show. the left in america, they have no idea, they have no solution. they don't stand for anything except they are against president trump, the hate president trump. congressman luis gutierrez even walked out of the speech during chants of "usa, usa," his excuse, he had to get ready for an interview. white house press secretary
10:03 pm
sarah sanders is calling out pelosi and the democrats with some really, really powerful truth. take a look. >> i think nancy pelosi look like that all the time. i think she should smile a lot more often. i think the country would be better for it. she seems to kind of embody the bitterness that belongs in the democratic party right now. i think last night was a good step forward, hopefully they can let go of some of that and i have to make a big decision. they need to decide, chris, do they love america more than they hate this president? are they willing to put some of those differences aside, come together, and do what's right for this country? >> sean: wouldn't that be great? come together, fix the country, help the forgotten men and women. while democrats ever but the. country before the hatred of the president? interesting question to ponder. we have our doubts. remember, they s supported eight years of obama's failure. we had 13 million more americans on food stamps, 8 million more on property, the lowest labor participation rates and see
10:04 pm
'70s, the worst economic recovery since the '40s and obama accumulated more debt than any other president and he was the only president ever to reach 3% gdp growth. then you have the liberal mainstream media. they are in full breakdown, freak out mode over the president's successful state of the union address. you can't make this up. their bias is so transparent. >> what you saw tonight wasne president trump i think, with one hand reaching out his hand, to democrats, and the other hand, holding up a fist. >> if the president met with me after the speech, i would say, that is how not to give a unifying speech. >> stoking many would say racia' tensions by bringing up this issue of kneeling. >> i think his rhetoric last night to set things back. >> the way he sold immigration really offended a lot of democrats that were listening in that room. >> if that was an attempt at unity, he's got a lot of work to
10:05 pm
do. >> i go through these teleprompter speeches he gives, it's not him. you can tell he's reading it. he doesn't own it. >> he was selling sweet tasting candy with poison in it. >> it reveals donald trump's deep and almost sort of bad obsession with being liked. >> you tell me that that room is supposed to but respond like this to the great dictator? >> they are not supposed to sit on their hands. >> really? >> sean: that is not all, the fake news cnn, they went on fall on conspiratorial mode about the color of the first lady, melania trump come out of it. this speculation is an other two grays but sadly, very predictable. let's take a look. >> is there anything you want to tell us about the outfit? >> she's wearing a cream colored suit there, which i find interesting. rumor last year, the female democratic senators all wore white. protestingst trump's policies
10:06 pm
against women. if there was even a hashtag, won wear white. it could be a coincidence but i just find a lot of the stuff interesting. to. >> sean: nbc news, they can't give up their obsession with "russian investigation." even moments before the state of the o union, this couple too, disgrace.di watch. >> the president is under criminal investigation right now for obstruction of justice with regards to the russian investigation. a lot going on in the background. >> a missing major figure in this hall tonight that we ought not to forget i about. and that is a special prosecutor of the united states, who is at this hour probably meeting with his team. >> he sort of hovers over the chamber. >> that is an extraordinarily important part of what is going on in washington, d.c. >> sean: an abject listen, this shows you how out of touch the liberal mainstream destroy each of media really is. it didn't matter with the president said last night. the media had already
10:07 pm
predetermined that they were going to hate it. of course, you, the american people, you had a very different reaction to the state of the union. let's look at the "cbs news" poll. 78% of people who watched, they approved, and even fake news cnn, they are polls showed that combined 70% of speech watchers had positive reactions. if you just watchno the media'sl hysterical coverage, you wouldn't know any of this and you probably think that everybody hated the speech.ed that is why on this program, we call them the destroy trunk media. also important breaking news this hour. we have massive developments regarding the release of the four page classified memo exposing obama era surveillance of members of the trump campaign and the trump transition. sources are telling me tonight that there is an internal debate at the white house about whether they should release the memo with other supporting documentss and i, for one, and for full transparency, release it all, and i don't want anything redacted. maybe if it impacts sources and
10:08 pm
methods of security only. make them a public. by the way, it's about getting the truth out and that is scaring the living hell out of some people atri the fbi at the doj tonight, and of course, the deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein, and of course, peter strzok. according to "the daily beast," rosenstein, he is named in that memo and according to other reporting from the deputy attorney general is responsible for extending the fisa warrant to literally spy on trump campaign manager, the pretext was all under carter page, they went much further. clearly rosenstein is shaking in his boots tonight. we are hearing that he is the most scared individual in washington right now and at this point, it's all about self-preservation for him. just look at what fake news cnn is reporting tonight, president trump asked rosenstein if he was on his team. some might want to check rosenstein's phone records and emails because isn't it too convenient that when the walls begin to close in on him,
10:09 pm
especially after mccabe being fired, all of a sudden, there is a targeted lake to make rosenstein look better? the fbi is also trying to attack the memo and peter strzok, he's trying to distract away from his own scandals by selectively leaking information to cnn to try and make himself look better. sara carter, who will join us in a little bit, is reporting tonight that the u.s. intelligence agencies are joining the effort to block the memo from being released. they don't want us to see it, they don't want you to see it. liberal senator cory booker is saying, releasing the memo would be "treasonous." in a statement earlier, the fbi wrote in part, "with regard to the house intelligence committee's memorandum, the fbi was provided a limited opportunity to review this member of the day before the committee voted to release it as expressed during our initial interview, we have great concerns about material omissions that fundamentally impact the memo's accuracy." today the fbi are trying to take shots at the memo.
10:10 pm
catherine herridge reported this. two senior fbi officials that reviewed the memo "could not point to any factual inaccuracies." the house intelligence committee chairman devin nunes is firing back with a statement, here's what he said. "having stonewalled congress' demands for information for nearly a year, it is no surprise to see the fbi and doj issue serious objections to allowing the american people to see information related to surveillance abuses at these agencies. the fbi is intimately familiar with material omissions with respect to their presentations to both congress and they are welcome to make public to the greatest extent possible all the information they have on these abuses. regardless, it's clear that top officials used unverified information in a court document to fuel a counterintelligence investigation during an american
10:11 pm
political campaign. once this truth getsca out, we n begin taking steps to ensure our intelligence agencies and courts are never misused like this again. it makes perfect sense, the fbi would try to tear down or delegitimize that memo because the memo clearly, according to devin nunes,in exposes top rankg officials at the bureau using an unverified clinton bought andve paid for dossier as we have been telling you as an part of the justification to spy on an opposition c campaign during an election and the president-elect and his team. now to be clear, the media will never report this. we are not talking about rank and file members who work every single day at the fbi, the doj, the intelligence community. what we are talking about, we are very specific, are a few bad actors in those communities that are on the verge of being exposed for committing massive constitutionalns violations. now that is why they are desperately trying to prevent them on michael from coming out, from you having an opportunity .
10:12 pm
you remember that in january, after a year of stonewalling, devin nunes, we know that rod rosenstein and christopher wray, they went crawling into speaker paul ryan's office, begging at the last hour, after a year, don't give the house intelligence committee access to the russian investigation really documents. devin nunes had to threaten to hold them in contempt before they would comply. thankfully, speaker brian held his ground in that meeting. if they did nothing wrong, if they didn't do anything wrong, then why fight so wrong to prevent congress from seeing documents? release the memo, release the underlying documents, the documentation of it all. if they did nothing wrong, well, why are they trying to stop the memo from coming out? what don't top fbi and doj officials want you come at the american people, to know? this is an important question. we are heading towards a showdown. the author of the best selling
10:13 pm
book "vengeance," fox news contributor newt gingrich is with us. they didn't want the information released in the beginning and this is pretty powerful, this letter, of devin nunes, the house intelligence committee chair. he's basically confirming what others, what i suspect for a long time, that the hillary clinton bought and paid for dossier was used in part during an election season to get a fisa warrant to spy on an opposition party and then an incoming president. none of it was verified. if that happened, and we find out that happens, what would that mean to you? >> you have two things right here that are i think fascinating. the first is it turns out there may have been collusion to undermine the american presidential election by a government bureaucracy. it just turns out that the bureaucracy wasn't russian, it was american, and that it was the department of justice senior
10:14 pm
leadership and the fbi senior leadership. now that at one level is a really frightening insight about the future and about the danger of letting powerful police force deciding force the rest of us which politicians are going to go after. the second thing that had me as you were talking, though, there is this new movie out which glorifies "the washington post," the printing of government documents, the courage of the poste leadership. you go back and take the hole. back at the pentagon papers, the attitude of "the new york timest interesting, that none of these papers are coming in and making the same demands? of course we should publish this, of course the american people should see it. of course there's a right to know. >> sean: wears a lawsuit? will be hannity and company that has to file the lawsuit to get the information. the really dangerous thing here -- and i'm making a very strong distinction because i have such great respect for the fbi and the doj and intelligence -- but the powerful
10:15 pm
tools of intelligence we now have to get isis and al qaeda and enemies of this country, if we turn it and politicize it and spy on opposition party candidates, and use that information to destroy people, we've lost the country, mr. speaker. that is so serious that is to me. >> there's a whole pattern going back atck least to the 1970s of people on the left who were genuinely worried that an intelligenceld state during the cold war would require so much power that it could actually subvert the whole process. it's sad that almost none of those people are now speaking out about the current problem because the people at the top, and i agree with you entirely, this is all a a thin layer of largely politically appointed type people. it is not the great bulk of hardworking, everyday folks out there trying to protect america and trying to enforce the law. but this thin layer, i think we
10:16 pm
will discover the next few days, clearly conspired to mislead a judge in order to get an ability to spy, which was totally illegal. and i think that is part of why you saw mccabe leave. i think you will see some more people leave. i'm really shocked that strzok is still there. after all the stuff we learned about him, i don't know why he is not gone already. i think t you will see more peoe have to leave and then you will seee whether or not in fact they get involved in a serious criminal investigation because a lot of what they were doing wasn't just unwise, it was illegal, and they were threatening to freedom and the rights of the american people. >> sean: you know what's amazing about this is this dossier, the fusion gps said in testimony, before the senate committee, they never verified it, hillary clinton never verified it, they are suggesting may try to shop the salacious stories of hookers and the ritz
10:17 pm
carlton and trump, they were shopping it and coordinating with the hillary clinton campaign. hillary clinton clearly fix the primary, she tried to use the dossier to lie to the market people in the general come of that dossier was used to get a warrant against an opposition candidate. we foundag a year of trump-russa collusion and no evidence and the media in this country has ignored, i would argue, the biggest story in their lifetime. this is bigger than watergate, it's like watergate is like stealing a snickers bar for my candy store, drugstore, and comparison. is this hyperbole? >> i'm not sure i'm quite into the snickers bar versus stealing an entire -- i know where you're going with this. i think it's -- remember, the elite media is part of the deep state. the elite media group has survived by being in collusion with the senior bureaucracy, the city of washington, the senior
10:18 pm
reporters, the senior bureaucrats, the senior lobbyists, they all hang out together, they all talk to each other, they all compare notes. but it is -- you are exactly right about the scale of this.e this is what people, when they get to be this, what the american people need to understand is, that the obama administration, and a series of steps that clearly violated the law, tried to both protect hillary clinton and tried to destroy donald trump, and both actions were illegal. we are now in a situation i believe you are going to see a requirement in the near future for an independent counsel literally to clean out the senior fbi and the senior justice department, and to go after people who have left office who were part of the obama team that were so clearly violating the law. >> sean: what do you make of this massive disconnect? the president has his need of the unionon address. we have great news. we've got 2.4 million new jobs, 2 million fewer people that are
10:19 pm
on food stamps. the president gets all this great economic success, people are building factories and manufacturing centers and the taxes are down, americans are getting a lot more money starting february 1st in their pocket. he is trying to keep the country secure. you get one reaction from the news media and another reaction even with the cbs poll and the cnn poll, that show something very different. what would you say about that disconnect? >> i keep telling you, the elite media in the united states is not neutral, they are not referees, they are the offer and suffering of the other team. you saw this in the clips you had. tia some of which are frankly outrageously anti-trump in a way that is almost bizarre. these are folks who are so deeply hostile to what donald trump is trying to accomplish that they are fully as much a part of the opposition as his nancy pelosi or chuck schumer and that is part of why you are getting this
10:20 pm
unbelievably biased coverage. i must say, when i watched last night, and i saw the president to say "we have the lowest black on employment and history," and nobody in the black caucus could applaud. i thought to myself, who are they loyal to? if they are not happy that their constituents have a job, because they are not happy that the tax cuts reallyy dramatically helped their congressional districts, then who do they represent? i think this is a real challenge to the entire left-wing ethnic leadership in america. >> sean: we have that montage and a lot more coming up. mr. speaker, thank you. when we come back some of the memo from the house until committee could be released as early as tomorrow. sara carter, gregg jarrett, congressman matt gaetz, as we continue. stay with us. ♪ my name is jeff sheldon,

10:27 pm
and obvious. rod rosenstein wants to look better, he scared to death and peter strzok wants to look better. why is he working at the fbi, that's a mystery to me. you have sources tonight ignore breaking new information. >> it appears there is a concerted effort on the part of the fbi, members of the intelligence community, and the department of justice, to try to force the president to delay the release of the memo. they are doing this in an effort to buy time, according to sources i've spoken with, so that they can leak information to try to find a way to either discredit the ♪ ♪ memo or placate those members of the doj that don't want to see this released. sean, they are terrified about the american people finding out what is a mess memo. it does expose members of the doj come of members of the fbi and others, violating -- it nams names and it i actually shows extensive fisa abuse. this needs to be made public. the american people have a right to see this and the intelligence

10:29 pm
is the dossier was used at least in part to get a fisa warrant to spy opposition party candidate and that dossier was full ofhe russian lies paid for by hillary. >> that will be a crime called the deprivation of rights under cover of law compound , punishan years. >> sean: it's false. >> if they altered the 302 forms, the witness forms, that justice.ction of rosenstein and the fda must think everybody in america is really stupid. they are compounding their felony by trying to cover it up. first, the pretense of oh, you will reveal sources and methods, they have dispensed with that respect on my conviction and they are saying and they are saying it's omissions. and they are responsible for the omissions, they have been trying

to -- the oversight responsibility under the constitution. >> sean: sara carter, let's talk about the altering of the 302s, this came up in the mccabe firing. this is beyond serious. you have reporting on this. can you share it tonight? >> what we know is this. i've spoken to a number of sources who have said that mccabe had actually asked members of the fbi, and fbi official actually, to alter the 302. while there for 302s, the witness interviews that the fbi conducts -- >> sean: which one did they want to alter? >> i don't want to talk about it until we verify it but there was one person in particular that they believe mccabe has asked the fbi agents to alter the 302s. i think this is significant. it doesn't mean that they altered them but even the fact that if they were asked allegedly, if this actually happen, that a huge violation, huge violation, sean.

>> sean: what you are saying is, assuming we got the memo tomorrow, that means the day after, and that means next week, and a week after, that we are going to find even more abuse than what it is i'm talking about, right? >>er absolutely. another very important question here is,an when the warrant was issued, who kept reauthorizing the warrant? over and over again? >> sean: was at rod rosenstein? >> there's a lot of discussion that it was rodf rosenstein who kept reauthorizing the warrant. based on false information. >> sean: that would be in rod rosenstein, the guy that appointed the special counsel, mueller, could have extended a fisa warrant without asking you to review anything. let's say that that's true. doesn't that mean that robert mueller's investigation was predicated on false information based onas a false fisa warrant? >> sean, this is an issue where some republicans disagree.
10:32 pm
i believe that the information in this memo absolutely proves that the mueller investigation is built on a rotten foundation. the entireer mueller probe is a fiction, it never should have been started in the first place but for bad acts. that is my view. i would suspect that most of the american people would hold that view once they read the memo. >> sean: release the memo. let the american peopleme see i. release the supporting documents. methods, sources, national security, beyond that, releaseal it all. thank you come all. when we come back, dr. sebastian gorka and dan bongino weigh in on the growing controversy straight ahead.

10:39 pm
he talks about energy, he talks about his successes, security, defeating isis. dr. gorka, i watched a bunch of democrats sitting on their hands looking angry that things have turned around and just one short year. reaction? >> sean, we t expect them to be partisan coming to be childish, to be churlish. but what we now know from analysis of the video footage? several of them, these are people that weal pay for, are sitting there playing video games on their phones. what does that say about their lack of respect for that building the the year end. forget about who the president is. they are in in the people's ho, they represent us, they represent their constituents,nt and they are going to play computer games? it's -- look, it's bad news for democracy in general, but you know what? is bad news for the democrats.
10:40 pm
so i'm not worried. they didn't get one vote yesterday for november. in fact, with their response, that weird response from a member of the kennedy clan afterwards, that approved yet again they are disconnected from the american people and sean, most important of all, they don't understand, they still don't understand what happened on november the eighth, 2016. >> sean: i think that's a big part of it. dan bongino, we talked a little bit about this last night, the lowest level of african-american unemployment in history, same with hispanic-american unemployment, lowest ever. 17 year low for women in the workplace, and all these jobs created, all these businesses coming back, all these opportunities and energy that he's opened up. they can't even clap once, and it begins to raise the question, do they want us to succeed? are they unhappy that he is successful? it makes their last eight years look so bad?
10:41 pm
>> no, they don't want him to succeed, sean. can i be candid? i'm not talking about voting democrats. don't tweet me. i get it. i always get hate mail. i am talking about the hill democrats on the partisan far left extremist liberal hacks. they hate the country. i hate economic freedom, they hate donald trump, they hate everything about us. >> sean: i don'tth think they hate the country. i have friends that are on the left, i think theyhe love their own power and instinctively, they know that eight years, we have failure, and that success represents a demise of their ideology and philosophy. that scares them. >> i think the voting democrats of america are probably a patriotic group, we have political differences with. the radical far left extremist, i have to disagree with you. they hate the country, they can't stand the idea, they just don't like it. there is something about the ability to control your own life they can't stand. for the first time, sean, we
10:42 pm
have a president who understands the difference between the message and messaging. he gets it. think about the way he talks in contrast to focus groups tested republicans. when he talks about americans, hes, calls them dreamers. taxes, it's your money. obamacare, it's a disaster. the border, build the wall. >> sean: it goes to the core of who they are and their ideology. i want to go back to the fisa memo. there is talk now of releasing the correspondent documents wit with -- but that might include some reductions, sources, methods, secrets. there might be a need for it but i'm generally in favor of full transparency. your thoughts? sean, devin nunes and his team have done incredible work for months and months and months. they have been scrupulous. i know who these people are. most important thing now, forget about the other material.
10:43 pm
the memo must be releasedel unredacted, ideally tomorrow. no changes, no amendments, this is a congressional document, the people of america need to know.s then the rest can come later. but the memo has to be untouched and released. back to dan's point, one very important thing. an last night is a clear example that democrats love power. the speech last night was about loving america, like the president does, and it was illustrated for everybody to see. >> sean: we are going to have to run, think you both are bring with us. we are going to show you the low lights, how disgraceful the left's behavior was last night. you want to see this elsewhere in the media.he i can tell you that. that's straight ahead. ♪

[applause] >> sean: one person clapping.tu unfortunately, it doesn't stop there. they chant "usa" during the speech and democratic congressman luis gutierrez breaks out, heng says he is to prepare for an interview. watch this.

[chanting "usa"] >> sean: i don't want to recognize the one democrat, senator joe manchin, who is criticizing his democratic colleagues, who didn't stand for the presidentc at all, but joe manchin did vote against repeal and replace, did vote against f tax cuts for the people of west virginia, anyway, take a listen to this. >> did you see disrespect on the part of the democrats? >> i sought on both sides. i was there when obama gave speeches, i was there on the horrible night when they said "you lie," and i saw them not standing. this is not how i was raised. i saw last night the disrespect. you respect th office. >> what if they disagree with what he said? >> i can stand up and still disagree and respect, i want to move forward. >> sean: joining us now, nationally syndicated radio show talk show host, larry elder, and

large,s contributor at geraldo rivera. 2.4 million people are working, 2 million fewer people and food stamps. if you can't clap for the american people on that, why are you even there if you are supposed to be a public servant? >> i think, sean, that senator joe manchin is right. we have had this kind of rudeness and disrespect for many years in the obama administration. i think the congressional black caucus last night, though, not straight up one. i think that they were so absolutely profoundly disrespectful that i found it disheartening. i mean, there are times, even in the worst of the mcconnell-obama feuding, there were times, though, where you stand, i stand, use it, i stand, but there are those issues in the middle, like the historically low minority

unemployment, like the 12-year-old kid putting the flags on the graves, like the call for $1.5 trillion in infrastructure, we are all -- we all should stand together. we p only get one president at a time, and this night, this state of the union, and to the monstrously high ratings that fox news got is an indication that the american people want to give this president a chance.n he had a rocky start but he's cruising now and they want to give him a a chance and that kid ofoc disrespect, i agree with sebastian gorka, did enter in the democrats a single vote. >> sean: clarey? >> [laughs] joe manchin mentioned joe well some saying you lie. i l don't know why the left ring set up all the time. joe wilson apologized that night, apologized the next day, and he can't -- i've never seen this level of disrespect. in the eight years of the obama administration, i don't recall anybody walking out like that

and if they had, i daresay the next day the headlines would have been "this guy's a racist." the thin reason that donald trump has been prosecuted or persecuted for collusion so far is a joke. it's the same evidence applying to the obama administration for the first ten months that some staffer had a meeting with a russian person who might've had dirt on my opponent and therefore, i am now under investigation for collusion, a word that people could not define. the country would be on fire. >> sean: tomorrow, geraldo rivera, we may very well get that memo and that roma may confirm that the hillary clinton bought and paid for dossier served as a foundation for a fisa warrant to spy on an opposition candidate and incoming president. if that turns i out to be at, wt that mean to you as a constitutional lawyer? >> it shakes me to my core. it is very unsettling. if, indeed, this partisan document was the basis for the

fisa warrant, then shame on whoever manipulated -- >> sean: jail time. >> you know, let's cool it a little bit. i think first of all, congratulations -- >> sean: i'm cool as a cucumber. i think that you -- but for your efforts, i think this whole issue would have died away. now, if indeed, the steele dossier is the basis for the fisa warrant that got carter page that ultimately trap general plan, that because the president all of thiss turmoil, upset, and distraction, then shame on the dnc, shame on the democrats -- >> sean: you can fly to a court! you can't use an unverified document to get a warrant and a presidential election year! larry, the final word. >> sean, let's say this. you have the black lives matter people and their supporters all talking about institutional racism and how widespread police

misconduct is including illegal profiling. but somehow the doj and the fbi are beyond reproach? that doesn't make any sense. let's look at it and find out where this goes. as i said before, no matter what happens, donald trump is going to be in office for seven more years. they better get used to it. >> sean: when we come back, and incredible video of the day and your comments, as you speak out on the hannity hotline. straight ahead. ♪

>> sean: time for video of the day. mass >> sean: time for the video of the day. massachusetts congressman and the grandson of robert kennedy delivered the democratic rebuttal too the state of the union last night and to the amusement of money on twitter, social media, his lips were kind of shining in the spotlight. it looked weird.en here's what kennedy had to say about the ongoing mystery earlier today. >> twitter had a field day with your shiny lips. did you bring your chapstick this morning? >> oddly enough, i decided to go a littletl bit light on the chapstick this morning.
10:59 pm
more on the coffee, light on the chapstick, which is probably a wise choice. >> sean: mystery solved, giving the rebuttal is always hard, but at least we didn't have to listen to nancy or truckee or any of those socialists like bernie sanders. okay, time for the hannity hotline, time for you to speak out, let's have become here hear what you have to say
