pomposity, smugness, and especially groupthink, from which we designed until they shut us up, they haven't yet. we're good news for you, it is not over. 9:00 p.m., sean hannity awaits in new york city. take it away, sean. >> sean: i don't think anybody would ever say tucker carlson is guilty of groupthink. maybe some of the other things, i forgot the list, but no, you are out there on your own, which, you know what, is refraction. great show, tucker. >> tucker: thanks, man. >> sean: buckled up, welcome to "hannity," thank you for being with us. we have multiple major developers to bring you, including proof that comey's deep state of allspice spied on the trump campaign. an admission from ukrainian embassy, in fact of the dnc did try to collude with their government during the 2016 election. we actually have evidence. we are going to show you how the democratic party is unraveling right before your eyes,

lawmakers and presidential candidates alike literally melting down because they are russia, russia, russia, collusion fantasy is over. anything from here on is just noise, nothing more noise, the witch hunt is done, mueller has gone home, no collusion, no obstruction. they lost, they lied, they conspired, they send out conspiracy theories and hoaxes. and now the boomerang of justice is in full motion. we start tonight, a breaking report from "the new york times" which might have actually gotten something straight for a change, amazing, they even said wow, the dossier might actually be russian disinformation to influence the 2016 election, the one hillary played for, but according to the paper, there news tonight, deep state spying against the trump campaign did occur, a little late, but in a big way. the headline reads "the fbi sent investigator posing as assistant to meet with trump aid in 2016." the article details a london

meeting between a female fbi investigator working undercover, a cambridge professor, and a foreign policy expert named stefan halper. we've talked a lot about this. and trump campaign advisor george papadopoulos, he spent two weeks in jail. the meet up was supposed to be a foreign policy strategy session. the undercover investigator, well, set up the meeting. he was working as a secret fbi informant, and they both worked in unison to spy on papadopoulos to set the trump campaign up. "the conversation at a london bar in september 2016 took a strange turn when the woman sitting across from george papadopoulos asked a direct question: was the trump campaign working with russia? keep in mind halper was also set up, multiple meetings with trump campaign aid carter page, and who is being wiretapped. another way they spied on the trump campaign by the fbi after

the fbi director, comey, and others obtained the fisa warrant using hillary clinton's opposition research with "the new york times" now suggesting could be russian disinformation, the phony, unverified dossier, the dirty, russian dossier. wow, it is all beginning to come into focus, as i have been predicting. none of these spying sessions yielded any evidence of trump-russia collusion, because there was no collusion paid without a doubt, spying, the attorney general's right, did occur. in the height of a presidential election under the biden-obama administration watch, again, an opposition party candidate, who knew what when? we will get those answers eventually. tonight, democrats are pretty detached from reality. anything from here on in, it is noise. they can't handle -- they couldn't handle the election loss, they can handle no collusion, no obstruction.

but it is over. watch them anyway. >> in the entirety of your previous career in the department of justice, including us attorney general, have you ever referred to authorized department investigative activities, officially or publicly, as "buying?" i'm not asking for a private conversation. >> i'm not going to talk about the use of the word spying. my first job was in the cia, i don't think the word spying has any pejorative connotation at all appear the question is always whether or not it is authorized and adequately predicated. i think spying is a good english word that, in fact, doesn't have synonyms because it is the broadest word incorporating really all forms of covert intelligence collection. so i'm not going to back off the word spying. >> sean: by the way, thank god for the great intelligence officers that serve we the

people. they are protecting us every day, the 99%, thank god for the premier law enforcement agency in the entire world, the fbi. the 99%. tonight, though, we know the deep state aggressively spied on the trump campaign during and after the election. that is the biggest abuse of power. that is what we've got to solve, and if we don't get to the bottom of it, we lose the country. no sign that the clinton campaign based any similar scrutiny, even though, as it turns out, well, there was a massive amount of evidence that clinton and the dnc more than once -- pay close attention -- trying to collude with foreign governments. don't take it from me, just look at what the ukrainian embassy confirmed to "the hill"'s john solomon, who joins us with a minute. bumps on the report from him, government of ukraine accusing a contractor of attempting to

collude with their government, saying that she "sought information from the ukrainian government on paul manafort's dealings inside the country in the hopes of forcing the issue before congress. according to the ambassador's office, she also "tried to arrange for the ukrainian president to comment on mena ford's ties during the u.s. 2016 campaign." comes after the court found that they sought to help hillary clinton would mark the election, and it admission from bruce ohr that ukrainian lawmaker was feeding phony, anti-trump dirt to fusion gps, the firm that bruce ohr's wife worked for, responsible for the bought and paid for, russian lies to influence the 2016 election. it might have been russian disinformation according to "the new york times," and we will have more in my monologue in a moment for joining us first to break down the shocking new developments, "the hill"'s john

solomon. let me remind people there is another aspect of this. we played the tape, we have then vice president biden, who basically is holding $1 billion of american aid money hostage, saying i'm leaving in six hours. you fire this prosecutor, you are not getting the billion dollars. you don't believe me, call obam obama. prosecutor apparently was investigating his son, and his tactic worked. the prosecutor investigating biden's son gave into biden's, well, let's just say pressure, just as backdrop. tell us what you've got. >> yeah, listen, ukraine is the democrats russia in 2016. the truth of the matter is the evidence did not pan out, the story that the democrats built on russia to accuse president trump of colluding with them did not pan out. it turned out there was no collusion. in ukraine, you see clear evidence now that democratic figures and starting with the obama white house and now a

democratic national committee contractor were asking for ukraine's help in building the story about paul manafort and trying to tar donald trump with it. the ambassador is very clear about what happened, she came in, he has this plan to get this information, break it in congress and try to get donald trump disqualified in the election in the fall, so they have an october surprise plan, so to speak, or maybe september surprise. one of his deputies told me ukraine actually went and gathered all of the evidence to see what they had on donald trump. the investors that ultimately they chose not to give it to this woman because they knew what she was asking was unlawful intervention in the u.s. election, but pretty extraordinary that the party that gave us the russia collusion narrative, the full story, was colluding itself with the ukrainian -- are trying to collude with the ukrainian government. >> sean: john, all of the people, obstruction, obstruction, obstruction, notice that they never talk -- this is the same time period, this is what makes it so interesting.

they don't care what hillary's obvious obstruction with intent, the intent was to delete, destroy the evidence, a multitude of ways from the underlying crimes that was top secret classified emails, violation of the espionage act. they don't care about that, just like they don't care about, oh, the lieutenant governor of the commonwealth of virginia, serious, serious charges of rape and violence and sexual assault. now we've got real evidence of real collusion from a dnc staffer asking for it with a real email, and the ukrainians admitting it, where are all of the other people? >> that's right, and she sent an email to the dnc later bragging about her efforts in ukraine, so there is no way the dnc couldn't say they didn't know what she was up to, she sent an email posting about it and predicting there was a big development that was about to come. that email was sent two weeks

before the ukrainians illegally leaked the manafort document, relieve the origins of a lot of this false russian narrative. the documents are there. i heard a lot of people in the intelligence community, in the last hour since my story broke, they heard this rumor for a long time. they were amazed the ambassador finally confirmed it was true. >> sean: there is more common, by the way. investigative reporter with "the hill," john solomon staying with us, he will be back in a few minutes. catherine herridge wrapped up an important issue with interviewh the president, get out of breaking news especially as it relates to james comey pair tell us what you learned. >> thanks, sean for the president told fox the declassification of the russia surveillance records will be coming "soon," suggesting midsummer at the outside. >> is there a timeline on when the prophet public will see the records declassified? >> president trump: i'm going to allow declassification pretty soon.

i didn't want to do it originally because i wanted to wait, because i know, i have seen the way they play, they play very dirty. i decided to do it, and i'm going to be doing it very soon, far more than you would have even thought. >> may come in june, july? >> president trump: soon, whenever they needed, i will be doing it, but i will be declassifying, yes, everything. >> speaking in "the new york times," the former fbi director james comey accuse the president of being "a moral and rubbing off on the attorney general, william barr, deputy attorney general rod rosenstein." the president shot back in this exchange. >> if you take director comey out of the equation and his actions in 2016 and 2017, with the country be where it is today? >> president trump: i think he did a terrible job. i would say he probably led some kind of an effort. the word "buying" has been years, he was probably one of the people leading effort on spying. >> that is a very serious charge to make.

>> president trump: will find out if that was true, we may very well find out, but we will find out very soon. >> the congressional request for the former white house counsel, don mcgahn, the president said "it is done, effectively over." john? >> catherine herridge, in washington, great work. big news on declassification, big news on the president's thoughts on james comey. thank you, catherine, for that report. we appreciate it. that should echo in the news world, we will see if that happens. but we have some good news tonight. the president will no longer be playing by an unfair hoax. in spite of everything the fake news media mob, in spite of the democrats, in spite of subpoenas, in spite of this, it is over. they lost, it is done, it is finished. they officially lied to the american people for over two years bear they peddled conspiracy theories. it was all a hoax from the get-go. the attorney general barr yesterday put all of the fake, phony collusion narrative to rest once and for all. whether they like it or not, he has the final say, and the

evidence didn't bear out everything they said. take a look. >> do you share my concerns about the fisa warrant process? >> yes. >> do you share my concerns about the counterintelligence investigation, how it was opened and why? >> yes. >> do you share my concerns that the lack of professionalism in the clinton email investigation is something we should all look at? >> yes. >> do you expect to change your mind about the bottom line conclusions from the mueller report? >> no. >> do you think the president's campaign in 2016 was thoroughly looked at in terms of whether or not they colluded with the russians? >> yes. >> and the answer is no, according to bob mueller. >> that's right. >> he couldn't decide about obstruction, you did. is that correct? >> that's right. >> do you feel good about your decision? >> absolutely. >> sean: let me summarize: mueller is finished, the

investigation, the charges, the lies are all over. but the fisa abuse will be looked into. yes, abuse of power within the upper ranks of the fbi and doj will be looked into. this counterintelligence "narrative," how did it all happen? we will get to the bottom of it. hillary's, yeah, how did she get a rigged investigation? that too is getting looked at. natalie doesn't believe his fellow democrats have the intellectual capacity to question the attorney general of the united states. house oversight, it belongs to house members, not their staff, not unelected, not unaccountable attorneys. congressman doug collins of georgia said it best, saying "over the 206 year history of this committee, staff have never questioned witnesses in an overinflated hearing. never, not once. so to say that chairman nadler's demands are unprecedented would be an understatement" bidwell said, congressman. democrats are becoming noticeably unhinged even more,

and it is not a pretty picture. this is sort of like election might 2016 on super steroids and human growth hormone spared today, democratic congressman steve cohen tried to sent a political message to barr by having fried chicken in the middle of a committee hearing. i'm not making -- that happens to be my favorite, by the way. other democrats took a more predictable approach. demanding barr be impeached for miss are presenting the mueller report and his initial letter, even though mueller admitted that barr summary was not in any way -- nothing was inaccurate, . i'm sorry, misleading. nothing. and barr was under no legal obligation to release any portion of the mueller report, and still the hysteria ensued. as a matter of fact, it was the democrats after the independent counsel -- people like nadler didn't even want the starr report released, which is mandated. there were 11 separate felonies in the starr report that they said clinton committed. yeah, very different story.

editorial board of "the wall street journal," they don't agree. they wrote this, "this trashing of bill barr shows how frustrated and angry democrats continue to be that the special counsel came up empty in the russia collusion probe." the journal called bar "a real attorney general getting some sd for refusing to duck and cover like loretta lynch, who failed as obama's last attorney general to make a prosecutorial judgment about hillary clinton's misuse of classified information." ms. lynch cowered before the bullying of the in fbi director called me, who resolved mrs. clinton of all wrongdoing. this brings us full circle back to hillary clinton, from ukrainian collusion with evidence to the dirty dossier, collusion might as well be clinton's middle name at this point. all people must be held accountable, including hillary clinton, loretta lynch, even strzok and page they she made every decision. it was rigged from the get-go.

what did crazy uncle joe no? million nellie ohr, chris steelo many other, but not the rank-and-file fbi and intelligent people. we now know investigations are underway and we know criminal investigations are underway, and we know indictments will be coming to an senator graham will reportedly now ask chief justice of the u.s. supreme court john roberts to officially investigate fisa abuse, fraud, before the judges he appoints. inspector general horowitz is conducting an and finishing his price investigation pair john huber is finishing his investigation into leaks and other matters paired bill barr's officially investigating all of the deep states buying at all related matters. in the days, weeks, and months ahead, we must get this right, it is not a matter, okay, we were ahead of the curve, we got it right, our ensemble team, we dug down and dug for the truth. government must never be allowed, the fear, to use the

powerful tools of intelligence o protect us against their own lan fighting citizens. and undo an election because they didn't like the results. we live in a constitutional republic that upholds the rights of its citizens, or we have no country. we better get it right. we better hold those guilty accountable. we got to stop the rampant abuse of power and make sure it never happens again. here now, author of the number one best seller "the russian hoax," gregg jarrett. fox news contribute or sara carter. john solomon remains. let's go to you. i look at sara carter, the statement of bill barr, the definitive moment, the big headline, and interestingly, i read a lot every day. i didn't see the understanding of what actually happened yesterday anywhere. except "the wall street journal." >> yeah, i mean, well, this is

exactly what they do. it is a complete fight back. part of this disinformation campaign, and they are targeting barr because they didn't get what they wanted, which was actually, they didn't get anything from robert mueller that show there was collusion. in fact, it was just the opposite. and sean, i want to talk about what happened today. attorney general barr did the right thing. he doesn't need to sit in front of, you know, the judiciary committee and be questioned by people that are not part of that committee, that are just the attorneys for the committee. i think he sent a direct message when he said, look, i even -- he gave the report with even less reactions, and they refused, they refused to look at it. so what the public saw, he turned over the report to them. even with less redaction, and they refused to look at it. that should tell you something about how the democrats are operating here. this is a game, this is gas

lighting, and barr is not going to stand for it. what is important is what you said, this should never happen again in the united states of america. we need to understand how much of our intelligence apparatus, as well as our federal law enforcement, was weaponized to go after a political opponent, and we need to know that they didn't abuse it beyond what we saw. this will take an extensive investigation, sean. >> sean: gregg, so many different aspects of the spirit i want to put your legal mind to work. again, listening to the attorney general, listening to what he is investigating, knowing an avalanche of information -- catherine herridge's report is very key. we are going to get declassified information that we four know is going to blow things wide open. >> now that the russia hoax has been exposed, the witch hunt has ended, i call it over the step is the reckoning. people who abused their

positions of power to frame donald trump need to be held accountable, as you have said. and they will no doubt be looking at the actions of hillary clinton. paying for russian disinformation and feeding it to an all too willing fbi that is not only launching without credible evidence and investigation of trump, but they are spying on the trump campaign, not just electronic surveillance of carter page, and probably others, but also mobilizing, deploying confidential informants to insinuate themselves into the trump campaign. you named three trump officials, in order to gather incriminating evidence of a conspiracy that was nonexistent, and they knew it was nonexistent. >> sean: you every theory have swelling around my head, i don't think mueller is going to want to testify because i don't think he is going to want to answer why did he know there was no collusion. i'm just guessing. what do i know, i'm only a

talk show host. >> according to john dowd, former attorney for the president, he knew it a year ago and set it in conversation. why is it when he knew there was no underlying crime, no evidence of it, that he put this nation through a nightmare for another year end. >> sean: let me give the last word tonight to john solomon, who broke a lot of news for us tonight. john? >> when i was watching the hearing yesterday, i was reminded of the old outdoor theater shows, and when they had to change that on stage, they would send out a mime and minstrel to distract the audience while they change the set. that is what is going on, lit a drama called russia collusion, i got run out of broadway, and other fisa abuse is going on ine playing the minstrel's role. >> sean: it is fascinating, act one is over, acta two, has real evidence, let me repeat, real evidence, is just starting. thank you all for your hard work. all of you have done an amazing job, thank you so much. when we come back, eric trump

joplin's claims that since 1969, alec, and the list goes on, genius. the ones getting fooled by those in the radical hollywood hate machine that fell for the two year russia hoax, now baldwin has doubled down, smearing attorney general barr, senator lindsey graham asking why "god-fearing americans would think he is worthy of a senate sita." he's going to win in 2020, just in case you are interested. baldwin mocked me once for being a construction worker hack. these b-list actors, so consumed with anti-trump rage, it is a psychosis. they have lost all ability to think rationally, completely disconnected. here with reaction, fox news correspondent at large, geraldo rivera. fox news contributor at dan bongino. deplorable's, geraldo. cling to god, guns, bible, religion, smelly walmart people.
