6:00 pm
right now. resist as they say. tonight from washington, great news for you. this is unexpected, but it is true. sean hannity is >> a busy news night. welcome to "hannity." a fox news alert. new information in the case of jussie smollett. in january he told police he was brutally attacked on the streets of chicago by 2 white men shouting anti-gay and anti-gay slurs and shouting this is maga country. tonight jussie smollett is under investigation for a hoax. despite red flag in the smollett case, the hate trump media championed this story as fact from the get go.
6:01 pm
and propping up a fake emotional narrative based on fake news. nothing new for the deranged left. they hate all things donald trump. two years of fake news coverage of the so-called trump-russian collusion with zero evidence and ignoring real evidence of russian collusion with hillary clinton. they are now eager for socialism we see it at the state and federal level. i am in the state of new york. according to the tax foundation, the residents of the empire state endured the highest tax burden than any other state in the union. every year new york's solution
6:02 pm
to every problem, raise taxes higher and with the worst infrastructure and only on the rich. to the far left. in albany the government could solve all problems and provide for all citizens if only the wealthy paid their fair share. one politician governor cuomo is finding out that socialism doesn't work which should be a lesson for all of us especially on the new green deal. take a look. >> the collections are down to about 30% of the target. that's a 2.3-billion dollars drop in revenues. as a drop at this point in revenues is as serious as a heart attack. it encouraging new yorkers to move to other states. what you have to remember is
6:03 pm
even if a small number of high income tax payers leave. it has a dramatic effect on this tax pace. -- base. tax the rich. we did! now god forbid the rich leave. >> sean: and the rich are leaving the state with the highest taxes and they are now facing a massive budget short ball because their citizens are fleeing in droves. 10 out of every 1,000 residents left the state between 2016 and 2017. in 2017 over 63,000 new yorkers, they moved to a state with no income tax: florida. and no other taxes as well and much lower taxes. it's not just new york. look at these numbers. between 2006 and 2017, the high tax state of california saw a net loss of 1 million residents.
6:04 pm
last year a net loss of more than 130,000. in 2017 over 63,000 californians moved to texas. again no personal income tax in texas. and so are major businesses pleaing california. toyota, nissan, carl's junior and so many others fled california. in a 9-year period, 13,000 businesses said good-bye to california. 1800 left in 2017 and 299 went to texas. this comes as california plans to enact its own single payer healthcare plan forcing citizens to pay more in taxes to fit the bill for every citizen and every illegal immigrant.
6:05 pm
the former bankrupt city of stocks ton, california. they are sending residents debit card loaded with $500. part of a guaranteed income experience. taxpayers in new york, illinois, new jersey, and california. look at your states. this is not rocket science. states with higher taxes are driving people and businesses away leaving few taxpayers to deal with a big and bigger tax bill as costs for government entitled programs are exploding. this is a death spiral not unlike every government socialist fantasy. the richest man in the uk. he moved to monaco to avoid a 4 billion pound tax bill.
6:06 pm
great britain will lose the tax revenue of their richest guy. if we are not careful the same thing could have at home. that's when we talk about the new green deal and the ponzi scheme of alexandria ocasio-cortez and every liberal democrat, they want the federal government to get rid of all fossil fuels and we will have high-speed trains that will take you to acia. -- asia. all in 10 years. she wants the government to pay for everybody. retirement. healthcare, housing and to put a cherry on top. guaranteed income for anyone who is unable or unwilling to work. guaranteed healthy food. can't wait to seat menu. the government? they want the government to
6:07 pm
renoivate every single building in america to ensure energy efficiency. this fantasy will cost you, we the taxpayers, trillions upon trillions of dollars tripling the federal budget and removing the life boulevard our economy: oil, gas and coal. but get this. spartacus booker and kamala harris and elizabeth warren and bernie sanders, they love the new green deal. spartacus called the green new deal affordable. those left wing radicals are vying to be your next president and others in the senate and house support this foolish radical approach. everything is free, free, free. guaranteed, guaranteed.
6:08 pm
poverty? no problem. keep your doctor and keep your plan and save money. oh that didn't happen. more false promises. the federal government has the power to print money. venezuela tried to cover the cost of their socialist program, they printed money and the country descended into chaos. no healthcare, no food, no medicine. inflation rate that topped 80,000%. the president spoke out against this today. >> socialism is not about justice. it's not about equality. it's not lifting up the poor. socialism is one thing only: power for the ruling class. >> [cheers and applause]. >> to those who would try to
6:09 pm
impose socialism on the united states, we deliver a simple message. america will never be a socialist country. >> sean: power for the ruling class. the green deal is venezuela's reality today and cuba's. the former soviet union demise. it's inhumane and destructive. socialism about power for those in charge. a lot of promises will be broken. nationalizing every industry in america. if this green deal passes, the american deal dies at the same time. sadly, it's not the only insane and destructive policy that is actively being promoted by this new extreme radical socialist left. we begin "hannity" watch on border security.
6:10 pm
we told you democrats want open borders. we are right. there is he is. bozo, beto o'rourke and gillibrand calling for our existing border walls to be torn down and alexandria ocasio-cortez compared it to the berlin wall. someone needs to get her a history book. that wall served a much different purpose, keeping east german citizens from escaping to freedom. we have immigrants defacing things. in north carolina 6 illegal immigrants were arrested. we need to sure the border. that's why the president's emergency action will win in court.
6:11 pm
even legal scholar turley believes it will be upheld. he has the money to keep on building and repairing the wall. with the 1.375-billion dollars guaranteed in the lastest budget compromise and the money he will reallocate from other places in the government. many in the deep state, they have other goals. as we report in our "hannity" watch on the biggest abuse of power, corruption scandal in history. it's much worse than we thought. andrew mccabe over the weekend admiting to plotting a bureaucratic coup when he was serving in the fbi before he was fired for lying and leaking 5 or 6 times. take a look. >> rosenstein was actually openly talking about whether there was a majority in the
6:12 pm
cabinet who would vote to remove the president? >> that's correct. >> sean: andrew mccabe and rod rosenstein should be worried tonight along with strzok and page and comey and the rest of them. we will have more on this unbelievable, despicable later in the show. and senator graham is here tonight. first big breaking news out of chicago and the case of actor jussie smollett. unfortunately it looks like everything we said about the media and the unhinged left is true. jussie smollett said he was a victim of a hate crime attack in chicago. smollett claimed the attack was political's motivated. he said they said this is maga country. make america great again. smollett told police a rope was put around his neck and a
6:13 pm
chemical was poured on him. he pointed out the glaring red flag. i had friends in chicago from day 1, warning me, don't get ahead of the story. they were right. you know what? on this show, we don't rush to judgment. we let the investigations unfold and facts play out. today the police say that the trajectory of the investigation has shifted. they are probing whether it was all a hoax orchestrated by smollett himself. two brothers who were friends of smollett told police the actor paid them $3500 to stage the attack and they said they rehearsed the attack. just last thursday smollett remained defiant and he was on abc with robin roberts saying the doubters were scared of the truth. take a look. >> it became, oh, how can you doubt that? how do you not believe that? it's the truth. then it became a thing of oh,
6:14 pm
let's not necessarily that you don't believe this is the truth. you don't even want to see the truth. >> why do you think you were targeted? >> i can just assume -- i mean, i came out really, really hard against 45. i come really, really hard against his administration. >> sean: smollett's attorneys are denying he staged the attack but the evidence is mounting. there is a bigger picture and it's one we have shown ou this show time and time again. we know the media and the left wing, they hate trump. literally the biassed media always rush to judgment. they are wrong so often it's scary. consumed with hatred of all things trump. it's now a border line psychotic
6:15 pm
derangement. facts come second. in the aftermath of report, everyone, celebrities, and politicians and members of the media rushed to judgment. look at the 2020 candidates. kamala harris and harris compared the attack to a lynching. and speaker nancy pelosi called it an affront to our humanity. activity ellen page used the smollett saga to attack vice-president pence. she was not the only one. rob reiner incued the president of injecting homophobic into america's blood stream. the left are the ones perpetuating hate and rushing to judgment and fuelling hysteria with fake news. all of this comes on the heels of the buzz feed fiasco.
6:16 pm
the catholic students smeared in seconds and the attacks on judge kavanaugh not true. what is wrong with make america great again? you would think we would all agree on that. cnn's humpty-dumpty, we are blowing this out of promotion because the media covered the story right. no. they got it wrong, and he is just wrong. look at these headlines on buzz feed: "vanity fair" asserted that smollett was attacked by 2 ma supporters. the list goes on and on. this is the problem when you write the story first and try to plug in facts later.
6:17 pm
the good news is this mal feasance is exposed to a daily basis. i said journalism is dead and biered. a lot of ground to cover. first is dan and larry. -- buried. i was tipped off by friends in chicago. just wait. i wait anyway. i upon you wait and i not done waits. >> first give jussie smollett an emmy like al sharpton did with the tawana brawley fraud. people wanted to believe this. they believe donald trump is a racist and racism say major problem in america. voila, the story had legs.
6:18 pm
it was a complete crock. the reason is because it never happened. the question is why did so many people believe it? the answer is they despise donald trump who is a racist and homophobic and engage in violence. now ran with it. now they are embarrassed. isn't it good news this is not true? we live in a country if you walk down the street at 2 in o'clock in the morning to get a sandwich, you have to be fearful because you don't like trump you will be attacked? instead of being relieved, why don't we cellerate that racism is not a huge problem in america anymore. >> sean: the people impacted by obama's horrific policies were
6:19 pm
spanish-americans and african-americans. consecutivism works in spite of constant lies about what it is about. >> yes. conservatives stand for things that benefit the minority community. the ridiculous minimum wage who keeps some people out of the work work. school choice that gives struggling parents an option to educate their kids. and policing. real damage was done here. the police assets dedicated to this in a city with a very high crime rate. the police assets were dedicateed to this for over a week which now appears to be a
6:20 pm
hoax. can you imagine the crimes that could go unsolved because of the police assets for this? >> sean: what should happen if it's a hoax. what should happen to the guy. all of the police resources and the accusations, what happens? >> oh, he needs to go to jail. >> sean: there has to be an example set here. >> he should be prosecuting for filing a false police report. he accused two white people of committing an act of violence. that's a hate crime. he should be charged with a hate crime and endangering anybody who wore a maga cap. anyone wearing that cap they had to look over their shoulder for an act of retribution for what happened allegedly to jussie smollett. >> sean: thanks. when we come back, "hannity"

6:26 pm
unelected bureaucrats sought to undermine then candidate and then president-election and undo the election of the people. they rigged the hillary clinton investigation so she would not be charged. we can all delete subpoenaed emails. the experience policy was put in place to bludgeon president trump should he win and put in place by the people who thought that trump voters were smelly, wal-mart people. according to andrew mccabe he said in may 2017, there were actual discussions with department agrod rosenstein to wear a wire in meetings with the
6:27 pm
president to invoke the 25th amendment. were they planning on a warrant here to take down the elected commander-in-chief because their candidate lost? as catherine reports two members were on board with this insane plan. mccabe said rod rosenstein was absolutely serious about recording the president. i want to be clear. it doesn't matter if you are a democrat or republican or liberal or conservative. this abuse of power should scare is everybody. this almost happened in the u.s. of america. those are shouting the loudest we need to preserve our institutions, they are the biggest defenders of weaponizing the tools of intelligence. they thought they knew better than the american people. first it was about stealing an election and stopping trump. then staging a coup to remove
6:28 pm
the elected president to pursue their own self-serving agenda, to preserve the swamp in the deep state. now they are turning on each other. now they are panicking. they know they got caught. comey, rosenstein, andrew mccabe, sally yates all signed off on hillary clinton's fisa warrant application using hillary clinton's bought and paid for uncorroborated phoney russian research. and then lied to the american people to help hillary win, but they used it as the basis for it the fisa application, 4 times. they certified that phoney dossier was verified. it was never verified and they made false statements to a fisa court denying a fellow american
6:29 pm
his constitutional rights. they used the clinton bought and paid for russian lies to lie to you before the election to help hillary. then to spy on the trump campaign before and after the election. and launched this phoney witch hunt mueller probe to cover their own misdeeds after the president rightly fired comey. and rosenstein scheming to surveil the president and invoke the 25th amendment? the attorney general, mr. barr, it's up to you stand on the constitution, to stop this type of corruption. to reform this great agency that we all love. that's the fbi. not these guys. but you owe it to the rank-and-file. those guys that do the honest
6:30 pm
work every day and hold these individuals accountable and re-establish credibility to the fbi and doj. the justice department is a hot mess and extraordinary self-righteousness. it's overdue to end this dysfunction and corruption. these revelations are being ignored by democrats and the hate-trump media. look at shifty schiff. biggest liar in congress. look what he said. >> he finds there was no direct collusion between the trump
6:31 pm
campaign and russia. will you accept that? >> we have to do our own investigations. >> will you accept the findings separate from the investigation you are doing? >> i will accept them in this way. i have great confidence in the special counsel. if the special counsel represents that he has investigated and not been interfered with and not been able to make a criminal case, then i will believe he is operating in good faith. >> sean: here to discuss how republicans will compat this abuse of power. south carolina senator lindsey graham. i re-read the ig report. mentioning page and strzok. they looked into this issue of collusion for 9 months. we have testimony from page comey and others that they had
6:32 pm
nothing. that's in may when they appointed the special counsel. what is your reaction to using hillary clinton's bought and paid for dossier and lying to the fisa court? >> it's one of the most significant moments in american history if it's true. had you the acting head of the fbi talking to the deputy attorney general to talk about replacing the president. we have checks and balances. i will find out who was in these meetings and figure out who is lying because somebody is lying. >> sean: this is within your jurisdiction. when you look at christopher stee steele's dossier and hillary clinton funnels money to's law firm and steele said i don't
6:33 pm
know if this is true. your memo said the bulk of information in the applications were the clinton russian lies s. that a crime? >> well, you certified it under oath. i will be looking at two things. before and after the election. i will be looking at whether or not the fisa warrant process was abused, that the document used to get a warrant, is it still a bunch of political garbage? how could you certify to the court that this document is accurate if you never verified it? i would look into whether or not the counter-intelligence investigation was a back doorway to get in the trump campaign and the real motive was to take the campaign down. counter-intelligence investigations are designed to protect the target. that was the trump campaign. they didn't act that way. >> sean: do you agree with me
6:34 pm
that hillary clinton committed felonies, top secret classified information, a violation of the espionage act? you are a great lawyer. if i hired you and i was charged with obstruction for deleting 33,000 subpoenaed emails and acid washing my hard drive and busting up the devices with hammers, could you keep he out of jail? as great as you might be as a lawyer, you can't keep me out of jail, could you? >> [laughing]. well, don't do what she did. i doubt that you would have the same outcome. the techniques they used in her investigation compare to the trump investigation. if you want trump to lose, how can you charge her? i believe the reason she was not charged as much as anything else is that the people investigating her wanted trump to lose. i don't know if that's true or not. that's what we will look at.
6:35 pm
it sounds that way. >> sean: you can fire comey for any reason. rod rosenste rod rosenstein he signed the last fisa application, the third and 4th one in total. we have mccabe, the ig-report said lied 5 times. do we believe mccabe or rosenstein because one is lying? >> absolutely. let's get back to the fisa warrant process. the only reason a warrant was should was because of the dossier. the dossier was prepared by a foreign agent and paid for by the democratic party. comey gave it to the president saying you need to know about this. that's the same document they used to give to the court and spared it was reliable.
6:36 pm
>> sean: the announcement of rosenstein's replacement could come this week. barr picked rosen as the deputy ag? quick reaction? >> that would be a good pick. this investigation is just beginning. we will get to the bottom i promise. >> sean: you and the attorney general, if we are going to have equal justice under the law and equal application and a constitution, you need to get to the bottom of this. a big responsibility on both of your shoulders. coming up next, we have an important about the jussie smollett case and so much more. don't go anywhere on this breaking news night. with an ingredient originally discovered... in jellyfish. in clinical trials, prevagen has been shown to improve short-term memory. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. and relief from symptoms caused feel the clarity of non-drowsy claritin
