>> tucker: that's for sure. used to be a free country. thanks a lot for joining us tonight. we are out of time sadly. had a great time, though. good night from washington. sean hannity, right now. >> sean: thanks, tucker. welcome to "hannity." two major developing stories we are followingri tonight. first,t, the attorney general jf sessions is now saying the department of justice will investigate this a beer obama area fisa abuses against the t. this comes afterer democratic congressman adam schiff's counter memo said that they lied to the fisa judge about the russian lies and propaganda dossier in order to get the warranty surveilled trump page.gn associate carter also breaking right now, more damning evidence about the failure from the broward county sheriff's office. in the addition to the dozens of missed warning signs, and the

reports of deputies not entering the school, fox news tonight is reporting that there were delays even allowing emts to go inside the school, and sources are telling fox that the broward county sheriff's office denied requests by the emts to enter the crime scene. also breaking this hour, our own sara carter reporting that under sheriff's real leadership, there have been at least 40 investigations into department misconduct. tonight, we are asking, when will broward county sheriff scott israel take responsibility? when will he release the camera footage so that you, the american people, can see how the deputy has acted during this shooting. we have so much breaking news in our opening monologue. ♪ major developments tonight, we'll start there. we are getting closer to holding top level obama deep state officials accountable for what is a severe constitutional abuse. they completely have shredded

the fourth amendment rights of the american people. and people could and should end up behind bars. if the attorney general attorney general jeff sessions thankfully is now saying tonight the department of justice will be investigating these fisa abuses. let's watch. >> we believe the department of justice must adhere to the high standards in the fisa court, and yes, it will be investigated. and i think that is just the appropriate thing. inspector general will take that as one of matters he'll deal with. >> sean: finally. we have been unappealing this story for over a year while the liberal media, they have been lr trump-russia collusion, which is nothing more, to this point, then the conspiracy theory they have created out of thin air. there is no evidence. as for the extensive, and precedented, obama era fisa abuses, we now have a mountain ofro incontrovertible and corroborated facts and evidence.

liberal congressman adam schiff's counter memo on fisa abuses has actually confirmed everything we have been reporting on and everything that is also in in the two republicn memos on this scandal. that is why the mainstream media has been completely ignoring what is inside this b-17 memo.ed it doesn't fit their narrative. more importantly, it doesn't damage president trump, which is their ultimate goal.ch here is everything that the schiff memo corroborates, from the nunes and grassley-graham memos. this completely unverified clinton bought and paid for dossier that used restaurantt government sources made up a large part of that fisa application to surveilled trump campaign associate carter page. adam schiff actually writes that a section of the fisa application references parts of the phony dossier about carter page meetingh with russians in moscow in june of 2016. page, by the way, is denying these lies, and that they have never been proven true. i think mueller would have arrested him by now or at least

charged him. remember, the grassley-greer memo said that the russian dossier made up the bulk of thi. schiff didn't say it but he admits the dossier was used and the schiff memo also corroborates that the fbi and the doj lied, and purposefully, and maliciously misled a fisa judge about clintonth and the dc paying over $12 million for the russian dossier of unverified lies andri propaganda. can you believe this is happening in our country? schiff's memo actually quotes a part of the fisa application about the dossier having political motivations but here's the thing. the application never bothered to mention that it was hillary or the dnc that paid for that dossier. the fbi knew this. they purposefully hit it from the fisa judge, not rank-and-file fbi, the higher echelon e that we talk about. they used it to get a warrant to spy on the trump campaign.

here is another key point that thee schiff memo confirms, the fisa application, they mentioned a yahoo news article about michael isikoff, schiff lied about the fact that the judge was never made aware that the source for the yahoo article was christopher steele. the republican memos detailed how this was a major problem because this means that the information was never verified by two independent sources since steele was the only source. those are the points of the schiff memo confirming. here are the key facts that the schiff memo flat out lies about. the congressman claims of the trump campaign was never spied on. that is a lie, 100% false, and here's's why. when the federal government granted a fisa warrant, that gives them access to every one of carter page's old emails, all text messages, and they know every phone call he made, which could date back to when he was with the trump campaign. schiff claims that former deputy

fbi director andrew mccabe, that he never testified that without the dossier, they neverr would have been a fisa application.ap but the schiff memo never offers any proof, which likely means it doesn't exist and my sources confirm that in fact mccabe said that. schiff admits that steele was fired by the fbi for these media leaks but what schiff doesn't say is that steele lied i to the fbi about his media contacts must be 16 memo tries to believe christopher steele's credibility by saying he has worked with thi in the past. they fired him. problem.e schiff never mentions that steele was using russian government sources and the information was never verified independently by the fbi or the doj or by anybody. it should never have been used for any fisa warrant application at all. finally, schiff omits this critical piece of evidence. the dossier put the fisa application over the top. in other words, the first time

they tried it, it failed. the fisa application was denied. then the dossier, they added that to get the help that was needed so they could "get it approved." then they lied to the judge. what it all means is now we have three congressional memos that prove a key fact: the fbi lied to a fisa judge about clinton and the dnc financing a dossier, which was filled with uncorroborated russian lies, and they did it to spy on the trump campaign. the attorney general, jeff sessions, i'm glad he's moving. he needs to move quickly. everybody involved needs to be held accountable.d we need to restore the rule of law. all right, also breaking tonight, we have more news about broward county and the sheriff's department missing countless warning signs about the florida school shooter and then utterly failing to properly respond to this deadly rampage. this is one huge, massive, giant bureaucratic failure after another in this case. broward county sheriff scott israel, he flat out refusing to

take any responsibility. instead, he is blaming pretty much everybody else. according to reports,rd this is almost unconscionable, four of sheriff israel's deputies not enter the building while the school shooting was happening. one deputy, a school resource officer on the scene, his name is scott peterson, he was armed with a gun and a bulletproof vest. he took up a position outside the building while the shooting was taking place. one student described peterson is standing still as he heard shot after shot being fired. peterson is defending his actions and ended up resigning. but we are now learning is that the first member of law enforcement to enterer the schom a coral springs police department. those officers rushed right in. broward county deputies, they took up a defensive posture and position outside. also new tonight, fox news reporting and broward county sheriff's department also preventedtmen the emts from entering the school and there are questions about, well, would it be proper protocol?

students and teachers were shocked and dying and pleading. sources are telling laura ingraham that broward county sheriff deputies, they were told not to go into the school unless their body cameras were turned on, even though those deputies apparently didn't have them. sara carter breaking news tonight. reporting that under sheriff scott israel'ssc leadership, the have been at least 40 investigations into that department and misconduct. we reached out to the sheriff's office for comment on her story and we haven't heard back. this is all one huge, massive, giant blunder after another while students and teachers were being slaughtered inside the school. sadly, that is just part of the story. we know the fbi was alerted not once, but twice about nicholas cruz and his sinister intentions, including weeks before the massacre. one unidentified woman told authorities that she feared that he would "get into this school and shoot the place up. the naples daily news reported

the broward county sheriff's office received 18 specific warning calls since 2008 and law enforcement, imagine this, this is -- this kids home, a whopping 39 times in a seven year period. we also know that he raised all kinds of red flags at school. he wasn't allowed to wearr a backpack because of security concerns. he was expelled because of his behavior. he posted all of these disturbing images on social media, warning signs missed at every single level here. people did the right thing. they saw something, they said something, they alerted authorities. these authorities droppedho the ball on the level i can't even comprehend. t they didn't do their jobs, they feel this community in florida, and these officials need to be owning up to this mistakes so it never happens again. we can fix the problems in my system. prevent a future massacre. but that is not the case. you have heard people like robert county sheriff scott

israel, he is refusing to own up to his failures. he won't answer key questions. he passed pats himself on the back and has a general overall lack of sympathy. watch this. >> when did you find out that deputy peterson had not gone into the building? have soon after the shooting did you know that? >> not for days. think of how many days? >> i'm not sure. >> you didn't look at the video? one week after the shooting and you have a look at the video yet? >> i looked at the video as soon as our investigators -- it was of my job to look at the video, it's the investigator's job to look at the interview. speak of the families at the cnn towel hall, you could have disclosed to them -- >> i couldn't disclose it then because there was no corroboration, jake. i could only take responsibility for what i knew about. i exercised my due diligence. i i have given amazing leadershp to this agency. >> amazing leadership?

will you resign? >> of course i want to resign. >> do you think if the broward county sheriff's office did something differently, this shooting may not have happened? >> listen, if it's an bus were candy and nuts, o.j. simpson was doubled in the wrecker broke. >> sean: obviously, they share is in denial. it is my people are now calling inhy them to resign. instead of doing everything he e just showed you, he should be apologizing and correcting these issues that didn't stop this shooting. sheriff israel doesn't appear to be interested in doing any of this. in fact, he said that he might not even release the footage showing deputy scott peterson failing to enter the building. listen too what he says. >> we are not going to disclose the video at this time. and we may never disclose the video. depending on the prosecution and the criminal case.

what i saw was a deputy arrived at the west side of building 12, take up a position, and he never went in. >> sean: unbelievable. whatever footage the sheriff has, it should be released to the public. the american people, all of you, the people of florida, and these families, deserve to see it if they want to see it. sheriff israel used to stop trying to save his job, focus on protecting this community, that he is supposed to be serving. joining joining us now with reao her article, fox news contributor sara carter. several rights and criminal defense attorney david jonas wi. i amid with you, looking in this article, and i am blown away. 66 cases of critical misconduct being investigated into sheriff israel's department? what is going on down there? >> 66, 40 of which were all

under sheriff israel, which is so significant. what's going on is that somebody needs to be looking at the leadership quality sheriff israel is for need to broward county, to the sheriff's department, and there's a number of people concern. this is just not slightct misconduct. these are criminal misconduct cases that range from kidnappin kidnapping. i was stoned. kidnapping to drug trafficking, these are sheriff's deputies. even in some cases, killing. there something going on in broward county sheriff's department's office and sheriff israel is the leader, and it appears that someone needs to be asking some very serious questions about what is going on there. >> sean: david, i know law enforcement, my mother worked in a prison, my dad was a family probation guy. when my uncle billy gave me a christmas present, i'm about that talk, it was an nypd hat. it was n a badge. anna never felt morero proud iny

life.i i have a lot of family members and the fbi. i love, respect law enforcement. we sought on 9/11, everybody coming down, and they are going up. that is the people i know. i never heard of one, never mind for four, cops are trained to. this is why they become officer officers. they put themselves in harm's way. i have never in my entire life ever heard of an officer that has acted this way. for all the other police officers, fbi guys, we are not talking about them. they do their job every day. how did this happen here? it is all in one county under one sheriff? i don't understand. >> it is a failure on a number of levels. we don't want to rush to judgment. as you have said and say night after night as a law-enforcement guy, these police officers, deputies, firefighters, they are our heroes. there are many fine ones that serve in the broward sheriff's

office. however we have to consider a fundamental lack of leadership. we have a lawsuit going on, the federal civil rights case going against sheriff israel and other deputies for the cold-blooded killing of a african-american man named jermaine mcbean in 2015. the department of justice has an open investigation of their civil rights division about it. we allege in that case, it shows that ultimately the sheriff ratified the policy that happened. it's a matter of not acknowledging mistakes. you know, ben franklin said once, man who is good at making mistakes is seldom good at anything else. makingng excuses, rather, seldom good at everything else. >> sean: the sting in any rebuke is the truth. this is stinging. there is a lot of truth about failure. >> the t lack of accountability. it's a fundamental lack of leadership when deputiesle commt perjury, when a man is killed and the answer is "we wouldn't changed anything -- do

anything different in the future," that is a fundamental lack of leadership. >> sean: how do you not -- look, i don't want to judge scott peterson. i don't. i don't get it, though. i don't understand.he another media is fixating that donald trump said he would go in because they just take the president and this is how and ignorant the media is. but i know cops. they are friends of mine. i was just at a dinner with a cop. this is nototi how they act. >>ot they live for this kind of moment. tragedy, they recognize the tragedy, but they are theaters there. ultimately, the tragedy for this case is to the families. no one can give an a explanation that will be satisfactory. pointing the finger does not help. however, there must be accountability going forward so that something like this doesn't happen again. what we are seeing from sheriff israel is the opposite of what we havey,ri all learned means leadership. that is passing the buck -- >> sean: he thinks he's done a great job. he's not taking responsibility

for what is officers do. >> he says he provides amazing leadership. this is a fundamental lack of leadership to continue making excuses and pointing the finger. >> sean: let me go back to sara on the other breaking news story. the comments of jeff sessions today. we do know the inspector general coming up with a report, i assume it's going too deal with fisang abuse. but him saying it sounded to me and maybe i'm wrong, that this goes evenn deeper than that. >> it certainly does. i think at this point with all the evidence, we have seen this schiff memo, the nunes memo, we have seen through criminal referral from senator grassley's office regarding christopher steele. there is so much insurmountable evidence within those memos that the inspector general is required now to look at this. remember, this is a single case. will be looking at carter page. but they will expand on that case tohe make sure that the foreign intelligence surveillance court wasn't being abused over and over again.

they need to look at that. >> sean: we already know it's abused. >>e we do. >> sean: they didn't tell the judgeud that hillary paid for i. they didn't tell them it was unverified, that that it was the same source, right? >> that's right. we have one case, sean. what we need to look out, and i think the inspector general iss going to do that, is how many other cases out there that we don't know about. cases that aren't public. that is what they are going to be looking at. they will be talking to people of the foreign intelligenceen surveillance court, possibly talking to the b judges, they wl be looking at the documents, documents that we aren't privy to because they are classified. look at how difficult it was to get to the bottom of just carter page. i think this is what the attorney general wants to do, he wants to expand this investigation, he wants to take a hard look at this to ensure that this does not happen in the future. >> sean: sara, great investigative work on both issues. thank you, we appreciate youre involvement. theri top two stories, more

reaction, sebastian gorka, dan bongino, and her brawl though next. us. you won't see these folks at the post office they have businesses to run they have passions to pursue how do they avoid trips to the post office? stamps.com mail letters ship packages all the amazing services of the post office right on your computer get a 4 week trial plus $100 in extras including postage and a digital scale go to stamps.com/tv and never go to the post office again

you know what's not awesome? gig-speed internet. go to stamps.com/tv and never go to when only certain people can get it. let's fix that. let's give this guy gig- really? and these kids, and these guys, him,

ah. oh hello. that lady, these houses! yes, yes and yes. and don't forget about them. uh huh, sure. still yes! xfinity delivers gig speed to more homes than anyone. now you can get it, too. welcome to the party. >> hannity: joining us on two top store ot >> sean: joining us come our two top stories, fox news national security strategy just sebastianat gorka. ana array tv contributor dan bongino. and geraldo rivera. if you are outmanned and i will start with you because of that reason. >> outgunned? >> sean: you agree with me. you agree, secure the perimeter, a full security assessment, every school, armed retired, retired military. here's the problem.ob when you go around the military, and you have been out, they love you. police in new york love you.

you have always fought for the people that defend our freedoms and protect our communities. i had never heard of af cop, ever, not -- being so prepared that they want -- if that moment comes, they want to save people's lives. >> i think we have a tendency, though, sean, with all due respect, i love cops, we sometimes idealize it. scott peterson was by all accounts a doughnut cop, he goes and sits and has a belly and doesn't do much. when push comes to shove, one thing i found out in my work on assignments, 22 assignments in iraq and afghanistan, is that courage and cowardice is decided in the blink of an eye. you never know how you are going to respond. like the president said he would charge and, he doesn't really know. you only know -- >> sean: he had an incident that we know about. >> it happens, you either

chicken out, or you would charge an end you're a hero. medal of honor, they didn't ponder that -- >> sean:n: but they are trained and they are prepared for those moments. that is withh a trained so hard for.r. >> that is what the investigation will reveal. did this chief of the department, the broward sheriff, israel, did he have a protocol that insisted to his officers, as most departments have, since columbine, 1999, if there is an active scooter in a school, you run to the action. you don't wait for the s.w.a.t. team. you go in and try to save the children. if you don't take out the shooter, then maybe you'll stop the bleeding of one of the critically injured children c involved. if he had given them that protocol -- >> sean: a good friend of mine, he ran a different department. dan bongino, you worked in the secret service, you've been in the nypd.

isn't this whatever he cop trains for? i've nevert heard of one, never mind four, and then you heard h the comments of israel. what do you think? >> i waited for a while so jump in on this debate because i am pretty confident florida uses what they call the alert system for school security, and responses to school shooting incidents. sean, that system, i believe it involves multiple deputies coming in. here's the distinction. i wasn't sure if it was the deputy waiting for someone coming else. once the report came in that multiple deputies responded, i just want to be clear, there is no response to school violence i know of out there thatt requires them not to go in, set up a perimeter, and weighed. everybody post columbine is taught to respond to maximum to problem right away. >> sean: the 39 times they are at the kids with this house, it

allowed them to institutionalize this kid. there has never been a case, see something, say something. we had everything every single, symptom, evidence that this was the guy. dr. gorka. >> i've said it before and iagai will say it again. political correctness can get things all my people killed. if these reports were true, that they weren't allowed to enter the building because their body cameras didn't work, i have a reminder for this year for broward county. florida statute on sheriff's powers, section five, chapter 30 says thehe sheriff is responsibe for the negligence of his deputies. it's not just columbine. after the pulse nightclub, after san bernardino, all police departments around the globe are reassessing their protocols. you don't wait for the hostage negotiator, you don't secure the perimeter. whether you got a hard plated -- whether you've got a long gone, doesn't matter.

you enter the building to neutralize the threat. that is the new reality. if this sheriff said don't go in there because we need your body cams is switched on, he must be forced out of office or recalle recalled. >> i believe that to use the expression negligence, dr. gorka, gives too much credit. this was not negligence. this was a person makinger a choice. i hear gunshots going off inside, gunshots fired, and you sit there or you hide behind a concrete barricade. that iss not not negligence. the president had it right. that was a disgusting response to an emergentto situation. this is a no-brainer. you go in, you go to the action, you go -- you die going over the berm, go and try to save a child, put a tourniquet on a ki kid, do something! do anything other than protecting yourself. >> sean: dan bongino?

>> listen, this is more of a reason to allow teachers to arm themselves if they are willing to engage -- >> sean: that's the point. they have the armed guy. that was scott peterson. >> that's exactly right. >>ig what i'm saying is if the teacher is they are on the scene immediately, the cop had a response from across the campus, it was a large campus. the teachers are right there. you know, sometimes law enforcement is minutes away. unless this guy is an olympic sprinter, i'm not absolving him. he clearly didn't respond -- >> he did not go in the buildin building! >> the coral springs cops came later in the teacher was already there. the teachers are already there! >> he should be fired. >> geraldo, the teachers are already there! >> an issue with this question of arming teachers, especially if they are vets, you don't have to be a tier one operator or a classified marksman. if there is one person in the

building who is simply laying down fire in the direction of the perpetrator -- >> i think is a terrible idea. >> is much harder to kill people. speak of a foreign person had been armed and san bernardino, we might not have had 14 people killed. >> sean: the whole point, dr. gorka, you need guards and every floor, that the perimetes secured. if we do that for every school, and we have the manpower, and they are on the floor, they are in thee building, that is where they should be. >> totally agreed, let's neutralize that threat. >> sean: thank you for being with us. when we appreciated, jesse watters, jessica tarlov, and much more news as "hannity" continues. ♪

>> hannity: all right, he's only been out of >> sean: he's only been out of office a little over a year but president obama has seemed to

completely, utterly forgotten details about his blunder filled presidency. he congratulated himself at mit and his own administration and their lack of scandals. really? really? listen to this. >> one of the things i'm proud of in my administration was the fact that -- and i think these things are connected -- we didn't have a scandal that embarrassed us. there were mistakes, we just grew up. but there wasn't anything evil during thoset years. and that's -- i know that seems like a low bar, but you look at the presidency, that is no small thing. >> sean: he's obviously in a state of denial. let's just remind everybody of what it was really like, the truth and reality. 2013, ap scandal, the justice

department obtaining two months worth of phone records from the ap, something the ap called a massive, unprecedented intrusion. 2014, the administration ridiculed over excessive wait times at v.a. hospitals that led to the death of dozens of veterans and the month-long scandal surrounding the present nurse swap, bowe bergdahl? a thing called benghazi, that scandal, four americans died in libya but i guess at this point, what difference does it make him right, hillary? don't forget the fast and furious scandal. they put guns of the hands of violent mexican gangs and of course people died. by the way, we have interviewed family members. also, the time that the irs apologized recently in the trump administration, they were targetinge conservatives and tea party groups. of course, the disastrous obamacare rollout. then of course the money for her -- that was a disaster. of course, we are still dealing with the ramifications of the ongoing uranium on scandal. we can go on.

here to help spark president obama summary is the cohost of "the five" and a host of watters f world, and jessica tarlov, it is her world tonight -- no, you do it on the inside. >> this way, then that way. times do we have to go y through this? >> k you know how slow the ladis are. >> sean: let's start with uranium one. 2009, we we had an fbi informat inside of putin's african america. he's reporting back, robert mueller is the director of the time. hillary clinton as secretary of state. obama is the president. what are they doing? they are involved in bribery, extortion, kickbacks, and money laundering. 20% of america's uranium ends up in the hands of the bad actor, vladimir putin. and russia. >> there are a lot of people -- >> sean: there is no disputing

signed off on the deal, they ignored the actors working in america, and they allowed it to happen. 20% of our uranium was controlled by that group. >> they are a number of people in fact-checking services that dispute that. >> sean: give me one instance or what i said is wrong. >> that vladimir putin has 20% of our uranium. >> sean: control of through that uranium one company, yeah. russian owned and operation -- >> we talked about this before, and you said we transferred control of it to our european allies who are -- >> sean: i never said that. >> we talked aboutat it on this show. >> sean: the rainy and they never said would leave the u.s. went to canada, europe, and asia. >> the one that hillary clinton --. >> sean: hillary clinton state department. >> didn't try -- if trump did , he'd be impeached. the fisa abuse at the end masking. a lot of the obama scandals come

people died. the v.a., benghazi, fast and furious. he pulled out of iraq, let isis take over a third of that country, the death toll is still mounting. we don't want to scandal because weec have the coverups. hillary smashing blackberries, bleaching her server. lois lerner pleading the fifth. if there is not a court of, we covering up? >> we know that taking the fifth amendment does not mean you are guilty.ma >> what about smashing the blackberry with a hammer? >> i've never smashed her phone but we all w admitted the privae server was a mistake. mistake or crime? >> i believe mistake. >> sean: isn't a felony to mishandle and destroyed classified information? >> that is certainly what i have heard on your show. >> if y it wasn't a clinton, tht person would have been locked up. how much will these obama scandals cost us? the fields website was a billion. the caps to the radium,

funneling to hezbollah. >> my turn. i got a listen i was expecting all of it and they wanted one of the karl rove boards where i could write my trump scandals, whose only been in for a year. there is some stuff going on. we don't know what will happen with the bob muelleroi investigation, so youer could have -- >> sean: is there any evidence of trump-russia collusion? > trump himself or his campaign? you know of any evidence? >> i know about the indictments. >> sean: i am asking, any evidence of trump campaign-russia collusion at all? >> we haven't gotten all of the final rulings out of this -- >> sean: that would be a "no" ." >> obama was in office for eight years. donald trump was in office for one year in this investigation -- >> sean:n: what about the fisa scandal, where you don't tell the fisa court that hillary bought and paid for the dossier? >> they knew it was politically motivated. >> they buried it in a footnote to disguise the fact that

hillary and the dnc cooked up this scheme. >> that is not what happened. >> that's a fraud and a felony. >> if you read both memos, and i would love a middle-of-the-road memo because we know that the dem memoo is just a response -- >> there is not a middle-of-the-road come others truth and lie. we know they cooked up this phony memoo to take down trump. >> people pretend like the mueller investigation is all because of the carter page fisa warned.e we know it started with george papadopoulos, who has pled guilty, and is bragging about the fact that he had dirt on clifton. >> is papadopoulos' ghostly, then why hasn't he been charged by mueller? >> i assume it's coming or he's cooperating. >> sean: you knew a lot of people in the trump campaign. >> i was there. the one i never heard of george papadopoulos. >> because he was a coffee boy? >> sean: i know everybody in the campaign. >> i don't know how that could be. if youhe listen to his own fian,

he played a big role. you know who opened the papadopoulos investigation? peter strzok. >> sean: he's the guy that said that trump was lonesome and horrible. >> so, a lot of people have said that. a majority of people of said that. that doesn't mean that there were some sort of violation. >> he was so biased, he got fired. >> what is right he was removed but it doesn't mean there were some grand conspiracy against america. >> what is the insurance policy means? >> maybe it was about the vladimir putin calendar. >> sean: thank you both. actually, sadly, it's jesse's world, you lived in it tonight. >> i never win. >> sean: president trump made a major announcement about his reelection. flora trump joins us in studio next.

>> sean: it's only 13 months into hisy presidency. president trump is gearing up to run for reelection. today it was announced to that brad parscale will serve as his campaign manager for the 2020 election. joining us now is trump's daughter in law, who will serve as a senior advisor. lara trump. how washa the baby? >> he's so good to. >> sean: i saw the picture. the one with the hair. >> that's his signature do, the hair stands straight up. >> sean: do you sublet on social media? >> i post some pictures. >> sean: very cute. >> you have actually been doing this for a while. >> thank you. i was so honored to play a role in the 2016 campaign.

i was out on the road all the time, eric was out on the road, don, we all work, doing ourer part. come january last year, i was honored again to be part of the campaign and every day work alongside the great people we had there and we were thrilled today to announce brad pascal at the campaign manager. >> sean: i've known him for many years. >> he will do such a great job. he was such a huge part of why the president is in office today. other than the fact that he was such a great candidate and the country loves him, the digital campaign, the digital portion of the campaign was so important and brad was 100% behind that. he will do a a great job. >> sean: every night on the show, i talk about the media in this country. they have reported for well over apo year, trump-russia collusio. the smoke that they tell us, there is no fire. there is nothing. they have nothing. but we have found evidence that hillary clinton bought and paid for an unverified russian

government dossier. it was used for a fisa abuse and they didn't tell the fisa judgei that she bought and paid for it and it was unverified. >> if you i try to write it inta movie script, people wouldn't believe it. the world we live in is so backwards. ed actually shows how desperate people were to make sure that hillary clinton got into office, it still didn't work, thank god wewe had donald trump. the fact that it keeps getting brought up, they keep bringing it back, they had nothing else. the president is doing such a great job. they can't report on that because why would they? >> sean: they don't talk about itty anymore. imagine if it was your father in, though. if he was the one that paid for the russian dossier. imagine it was your father that was involved in giving 20% of america's uranium to the bad

actor, putin, and the hostile regime, russia. >> would be in a very different place. it's a shame to see that not a lot has been done to make sure that the right thing happens here. listen, we see it time and time again with the president. there is so much against him and you're right, had this happened and he was behind it, i can only imagine, heads would be rolling. >> sean: he is so not the typical politician. it's interesting. after a year, i get it from people, i talked to every day, social media, what's interesting is many people now, they realize, he's not like every other president. he's not a politician. and that means he's going to say and tweet stuff thattw people are -- the media especially, wealthy and outrage over. i think america is actually getting used to it and saying, that is refreshing. >> it is refreshing. keep in mind, he's not a politician. he was a businessman who was elected to be our president and look at what he has done, sean,,

and a year in office. his first year in office, he accomplished so much. you see the economy. >> sean: the heritage foundation, 64% of his agenda is already done, faster than ronald reagan. >> is incredible. and no one talks about it. i still maintain the reason that we hear about russia is because the mainstream mediase has nothg else to report m about. >> sean: i'm not giving my kids the umbrella. >> they would have to report another great things he's done and they won't do it, so that is why you were hearing -- >> sean: i know you, eric, don, i know your family, i have met your guys. more than anybody, you seem to have embraced this. this is not -- this is a blood sport andd politics. seriously. how have you acclimated and taken on this role that so many people would never want to be a part of?

>> listen, i grew up in north carolina and a middle-class familyy and i said it throughout the campaign. i would not have or have gotten out there and put myself on the line if i did not believe in donald trump has the right man for the job. and i am so proud to be a part of this family, and the support that i feel like we all give one another. it doesn't make it easy butiv it makes it worth fighting for and i am here to fight for this country. i believe in what the president is doing for you >> sean: after a terrific years of obama, we need to change. great to see you, congratulations on the baby. we hope you will come back soon. i appreciate you being with us. when we come back, tomi lahren goes to d.c. it asks people what they think of living in the swamp, and the hannity hotline, straight ahead. ♪ you won't see these folks at the post office
