tonight. >> thanks for having me. >> tucker: we are out of time. we will be back tomorrow, 8:00 p.m., the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and groupthink. a lot of bad things going on in ome world. the good news is it's a pretty interesting moment. sean hannity from new york right >> sean: welcome to "hannity." we begin tonight, the walls are caving in around the deep state. tonight, we can absolutely, positively report a pivotal document release is only days away. we're talking about transcripts, specific transcripts from the fbi top surveillance of the trump campaign, george papadopoulos and george carter at the height of the 2016 election. papadopoulos will be here in a moment to preview this major development. he used exculpatory language, and we have the tapes and transcripts. and according to the sources, this is groundbreaking

information filled with copious amounts of exculpatory evidence. obama's doj, comey's fbi hadpa mountains of information proving that trump-russia collusion was always a hoax. they knew it on five different levels. massive red flags were littered all over the place. but instead of putting the breaks on the witch hunt, they kept digging and digging and digging, blinded by rage and hatred, desperate to take down the president, donald trump. they never understood why he won. because they didn't think of it. by the way, their guiding light the entire time, hillary clinton's russian, bought-and-paid-for, unverifiable, dirty dossier full of lies. a clear example of what is premeditated fraud, conspiracy against trump, members of his campaign, and guess what, on fisa courts. all must be held accountable. thankfully, truth did prevail. four separate investigations to

date have cleared the president and his campaign of any and all wrongdoing. the hoax has been laid bare for all to see. we will give you so much more information. democrats in congress, apparently they haven't gotten the memo. jerry nadler's clown show is in full swing, never ending string of frivolous subpoenas, after failing to haul in don mcgahn. then nadler issued subpoenas for his chief of staff. even former aide hope hicks, currently serves as ebp at this network, here at fox. we're going to make hope hicks spend another million dollars on lawyers to answer the same exact questions again? only this time it will be a perjury trap. god forbid anyone that goes before congress, they have one minor detail, one little discrepancy, that's wrong or different from the last time they testified. it's called a perjury trap. the attorney general, barr, defied a request to appear before nadler's circus.

he's now speaking out, telling "the wall street journal," "i felt the rules were being changed to hurt the president, president trump, and i thought it was damaging to the presidency over the long haul. if you destroy the presidency, and make it an errand boy for congress, we're going to be a much weaker, moret divided nation. democrats don't seem to care.ed they're still fuming. and don't forget, clinton aide brian pagliano, hillary's aide, server, he totally ignored his 2016 congressional subpoena related to the hillary e-mail scandal investigation. at the time, democrats, they could have cared less. again, selective moral outrage. we are now witnessing this selective outrage at its worst. meanwhile, jerry nadler's circus is eager to feature, oh, they want robert mueller to come in. democrats hope for oneatwa last ground of baseless trump conspiracy theories and hoaxes

they can perpetrate on the american people. but team mueller is reportedly reluctant to testify publicly, by the way, probably for good reason.. will have to answer, in his case, very important questions. for example, i'd like to know, why did mueller hire a team of only democratic donors?w why did he hire hillary clinton's former d attorney for the clinton foundation? why would he ever give so much power to andrew weissmann,? hyper-partisan, hillary-loving hack, at hillary's victory party with an atrocious professional track record. when did he realize russia collusion never happened? when did he learn about hillary's bought-and-paid-for russian dossier. and by the way, to impact the race, that's important. mueller needs to answer, if he had time to investigate taxi medallions, decades-old tax returns, bank fraud on loan applications, perjury, he didn't have time on look into real evidence of collusion?

because it featured hillary, the heart of his so-called mandate? and, of course, christopher steele, multiple foreign governments, no time for that, either. by the way, i have bad news for the democrats: look at this poll. most americans, they are not interested in mueller appearing before congress. they got it. they read it. it's over. you just don't recognize t a a simple truth. the witch hunt is done. the only thing left now, yes, the second act. that curtain goes up. but you will have the radical base of the democratic party calling for impeachment, even log into trump's second term. nancy pelosi, only speaker of the house in name only, being pushed around by her colleagues, freshman congresswoman socialist alexandria ocasio-cortez is the real speaker, demanding the president be removed from office. and nancy better watch out and listen.

>> alexandria ocasio-cortez who i just caught up with, also said this caucus should not be hesitant in moving forward with impeachment. >> you know, i instructed--ou a measured approach to moving everyone forward. [unintelligible] >> sean: you're watching nancy's pelosi, speaker in name only, has lostt all control in the u.s. house of representatives. by the way, sad sight to really behold. she's utterly powerless to the radical demands from ocasio-cortez and others, and according to a report from "politico," massive infighting now taking place among capitol hill democrats, and of course, the infighting is already in full gear in the deep state. congressman doug collins issued massive document release, hundreds of pages, closed door testimony transcripts, loretta lynch, mccabe. so many others.

thanks to this release, we now know that loretta lynch, pretty much accusing of james comey of long before congress, that would be lying before congress, testifying under oath that she never asked comey to refer to the clinton criminal investigation as just a matter, the way comey said. somebody is lying, somebody committed perjury. the only question now is was it comey or was it lynch, or maybe both? and coming up, we have treasure trove of developments from these newly-released transcripts.re it's pretty clear the high-ranking anti-trump officials in the deep state are scared and forming a circular firing squad as the walls begin to cave in. they know what they did, theyrc know they're in deep trouble, and breaking tonight, john solomon is back with another bombshell new report, detailing yet another red flag in the fbi witch hunt into the trump-russia so-called collusion. according to john solomon, investigative reporter for "the hill," state department official kathleen kavalek did

send the fbi a salacious piece of so-called intelligence from her meeting, which was not appropriate, with christopher steele. only problem was the intel was total and complete b.s., which could have easily beenal disproven with any simple level of verification. that never happened. several days later, comey used steele's b.s. as the basis for the fisa request, and he signed the first fisa application. by the way, a request he swore verified. says it at the top of the document, an accurate and true. with more on this developing breaking investigative report, don solomon from "the hill"'s with us. john, wow, this is now three, four separate instances, they were warned directly. >> yeah, and, sean, it is the first time that we know for sure that the fbi was in possession of a piece of

intelligence from christopher steele that had been debunked before they went to the fisa court. they weren't in the process of verifying it. they had debunkted it. on october 17, 2017, i went tod the fbi and asked about the same intelligence, what is it? it was being peddled by everybody in the clinton world, there were computer pings going on between a trump tower server and that alpha bank server in moscow, the russian bank. the theory that the clintons were peddling, including christopher steele, that the state department sent to the fbi, this was a secret communication channel, some beacon where donald trump would know it was time to call vladimir putin. the fbi knocked this down in october. so, they told me on october 17, as well as other u.s. officials, it had been ruled out as credible intelligence. yet four days later, they go, knowing that christopher steele was peddling it, go to the fisa court, and they represent christopher steele is credible, information is accurate, they have no derogatory information

with that. this revelation calls into question all of those representations before the court. >> sean: last point, it happened, bruce ohr warned them. in august of 2016. now we have conflict in testimony between loretta lynch and comey. comey signed the first fisaw comey signed the first fisa then told president-elect trump it's not verified. three months earlier, he swore it was. how big a problem is all of this conflict, pretty much between every member of the deep state involved? >> first, the president is going to add to the problems of the deep state when he declassifies these first documents. the most important thing that has changed-- >> sean: that is a big detail. >> yes. >> sean: we have similar sources, i'm guessing. >> i have confirmed, in the next 7 to 8 days, the president will declassify the first of many documents. first, one we used to call "bucket 5," exculpatory statements about the targets before it went to the fisa court.

let me tell you about one important dynamic that changed. today at "the hill," we had a new poll out. for the first time, the majority of americans support investigating fbi's conduct in the start of the russian investigation. that is a sea change in public sentiment. the american public is on to the scam that was going on here.c >> sean: it'sth also a sign of the great investigative work you, sara, gregg, like to forge forget, jeanine, i'll miss one names. you've been on this for over two-plus years. because of the important investigations we feature each and every night on this program, as i said,io now muelr is finished, and that means, yes, the second act, the curtain is being lifted on the seedy bureaucrats in the deep state. the release of the closed door hearing transcripts is playing a critical role. yesterday, hundreds of pages, a batch of documents, featuring very revealing moments from obama's former attorney general, loretta lynch. remember, strzok and page say

she made the decisions as it relates to getting hillary clinton off the hook and rigging that investigation. we reported lynch accusing comey about lying under both oath about the clinton investigation saying that she was quite surprised by comey's remarks about saying i'm telling you to call the investigation a matter. but get this, lynch also testified the obama administration never spied on the trump campaign. uh, not true. for political reasons, calling such an action, quote, "inappropriate." and that's not all. as part of the new batch of information during the lynch hearing, congresswoman sheila jackson-lee claimed that four trump campaign associates were the subject of fisa warrants. okay, where are the other ones? in addition to carter page, she named papadopoulos, paul manafort, and lt. general michael flynn. now, if jackson-lee, the congresswoman, knows what she's talking about, that could be a new, massive development. here now with more on his big release, house judiciary committee ranking member

doug collins. first, thank you. we wouldn't know so much that we know but for your courage to release these closed-door testimony documents. what did you take out of yesterday, about loretta lynch and so much more? >> well, thanks, sean. one of the things that john talked about is the american people are turning because they're seeing the truth. for the first time, they're actually seeing thesetr testimonies that the investigators did. you saw that with my colleagues, with radcliffe and jordan, meadows, others. we are seeing the truth with trey gowdy, what they found out was that there was a conflict, and what they were finding out was that there was a cover-up. they knew if it was ever uncovered, that there would be trouble. lynch, we knew, it was basically we've seen the incompetence she showed as attorney general. now we're seeing them turning on jim comey, who, his little run as captain america is coming to an end. he is not what he has portrayed himself to be. there's going to be answering for that, basedor on the transcripts. there's contradictions at every turn.

>> sean: what do you make of john solomon's report? we know the bruce ohr warning. we know this woman, ten days before the first fisa application, warned all of these upper echelon -- again, not rank-and-file, not the 99%, very important. and they were warned in so many different ways. they had probably 10 times the amount of evidence that was exculpatory, includingab transcripts we're going to hear about, as john said, in the next week or so, within the next week. and they never listened to it? why? >> because it was what they, i think they had a pattern all the time. this is a corrupt cabal, didn't like candidate trump, didn't like the idea of president trump. now what they were doing is covering for themselves. they had what they believed, i think was their insurance policy. they believe that what they had was going to be the investigation which shows there was a problem. what is really disturbing here, they knew that they had a problem with these information

we are getting from steele and his dossier. yet they went with it, as you said earlier, comey verified this, just a few months later, said it was salacious. we have that today, that's the thing that's interesting. they've never been verified. >> sean: they've been debunked. >> and they are turning on each other. >> sean: now look at this, the attorney general under obama, lynch, basically accusing the fbi director at the time of operjury. congressman, this is so important, what you're doing. thank you. we appreciate it. congressman collins from georgia. now, with each passing day, you, the american people, you're getting much more access to the truth.teme we're finally getting unfiltered information by the bureaucrats in washington. we don't need them anymore. with the fact no immersion, a majority of the country is backing the fact that the doj is undergoing ongoing investigation into deep states fine, as john mentioned. now, during the height of the 2016 election. joining us now is a person who was a central target.

we know of the seedy surveillance of the government, author of the best seller "deep state target," former trump campaign aide, george papadopoulos.ve thank you, george, good to see you. t >> thanks for having me. >> sean: you had been hinting and then kind of saying it, you were slow in its s release. you actually told people, and they have transcripts and tapes. apparently, you were being taped. did you know you were being taped? w >> no, well, so i was-- i had very suspicious meetings. dating from march of 2016 all through, let's say, the transition of the trump campaign.ug so when i was meeting with a lot of these officials, especially from australia and the u.k., i felt that they were spying on me. i wasn't sure if they were recording my conversations, but some of their actions were so disturbing that i ended up actually reporting them to the fbi, including this australiani diplomat. alexander downer.

>> sean: have you heard about the transcripts and tapes that you are apparently on tape saying that you never saw any trump-russia campaign collusion, you would never be a part of it, tell me where i'm wrong, stop me at any point, and you would say that would be a betrayal to your country, and they heard you say that, have you heardo that? >> i can just reference you to the meeting that i remember saying that, that was with stephon halper, and it's clear now he was a cia operative,t' with azra turk, working with the cia, feeding the w information later on to the fbi. t but i do remember halper pointedly asking me strange questions. i basically told him what you're talking about is outrageous, trump has nothing to do with the russians, i have nothing to do with the russians, never met a russian official in my life. what i told him is what you're referencing is treason, and we have nothing to do with it. we love, mr.trump loves america, i love america, we

have nothing to do with what you're talking about. >> sean: let's assume that the transcripts exists and that "hannity" for the last two years has pretty good sources, as has all of this ensemble team we bring on this showow every night. that would mean that if they taped you, and they transcripts of you, and you just said everything you just said, then when you finally were brought in, you were walking right into a perjury trap if you did not remember perfectly that which they already knew you said. does that sound like it to you? >> i think that's exactly what happened. as i stated, i've never even met a russian official in my life. i worked at neoconservative think tank in d.c.,, then in te energy business throughout my professional career. as an american, the last thing you are doing is promoting russian interest. so, you're right, when they came to my house after they knew i was innocent of any

dealings with the russians, they were looking for a perjury trap. i think that's why they went after flynn within 48 hours of going after me. from what loretta lynch testified to, it looked like we have fisa warrants issued on us. if it's true that there were fisa warrants illicitly issued on myself, flynn, and manafort, then that's a problem. why would they be issuing a fisa warrant on me? considering i've never even traveled to i russia. that is at the core of the corruption of this investigation. why i think it's paramount that the president offers anyat assistance he can to investigate the investigators. >> sean: they even turned it into a james bond novel when one of the stephon halper meetings, they brought in ahe flirtatious, blonde bombshell character, right out of james bond. but they will-- they heard what you said, what a patriot you are. they heard from bruce ohr, in 2016, in august, and were

warned, steele hates trump, hillary paid for it. then we have a state department official to be super sure and put the cherry on top, warning the people involved in this abuse of power, including the fbi upper echelon, literally saying an unauthorized meeting just took place with christopher steele, on a deadline, this is a political hit job, all of that was known, and they did it anyway, and they used the information anyway. you were set up big time. >> absolutely. and, look, the last thing i'll state is that i think the fbi is going to stone wall the administration, considering so much of this hoax went through foreign governments and abroad, i think the president should pick up the phone, make phone calls to theresa may, the newhi australian leader, and the italian prime minister, and find out who is prodding them to spy on us. that is a key point of this entire investigation moving forward: foreign government involvement. >> sean: two weeks in jail for you, two weeks. let's see what happens in the end.

of the worst displays of trump impeachment vitriol on capitoll hill. let's take a look. >> nobody runs for congress with the idea, i want to start impeachment. but i think that's what it's come to. >> the impeachment process is going to be inevitable, a question of when, not if. >> my position on impeachment is what it has always been, and that is the president of the united states of america needs to be impeached. >> sean: are they offering anything to serve their constituents, the american people, forgotten men and women? anything to advance prosperity or keep us safe and security secure? no. minutes ago, the president tweeted, "democrats are on a fishing expedition wanting to interview ther same people and see the same things as we justg went through for over twoin yes with robert mueller and the 18 angry dems. never happened to a president before, never even happened to president obama!"

it should never happen again, either. joining with us reaction, harvard law professor alan dershowitz, and fox news contributor sara carter. you have been following john's story, you have sources confirming to you, bucket 5, exculpatory information, transcripts, and likely tapes of papadopoulos and page, basically saying no, we would never do this, the trump campaign never did this. and asked to do it, we would consider that unpatriotic. they had that information, like they had the ohr warning and the state department warning. >> well, apparently they did have that information, and they failed to turn that information over, sean, to the foreign intelligence surveillance court. this is the most secretive court in the land. they're required by law to give all of the folks and clearly have the evidence to supportrt their fisa warrant. according to the sources i've spoken with, both over the last

year and in recent weeks, they did not share that information with the court. this is very seriously damaging. this affects everything. because when you think about this, carter page -- and neither george papadopoulos or anyone else, possibly now we hang michael flynn or paul manafort, can't go before the courts and defend themselves. and so when they can't do that, it's up to the fbi, it's up to the bureau, to ensure that it's given the court every bit ofhe evidence possible in order tot protect that person's fourth amendment rights. and it appears they did not. when that information comes out, that will be one of the most damning pieces of evidence against the fbi. >> sean: that's only one small bucket. professor, i love the fact you're a civil libertarian, we share that, i agree with you. we better pay attention here. now, we do know, when you look at this report in particular, tonight, and you know, you listed the examples, we now have far more examples, ten times the amount of exculpatory evidence,

by the way, andrew weissmann licensed to lie. sydney powell said he withheld exculpatory evidence. why was he hired, why was he on that team? but then you have bruce ohr warning everybody. the state department warning everybody. then we have tapes for papadopoulos and page, was that a perjury trap? because they knew what he saidt they spied on him, they set that kid up and he saidn exculpatory things. >> no doubt that was a perjury trap. whenever the government knows what you're going to say and calls you in front of the grand jury to see if you say anything contradictory to that, that's the classic perjury trap. but you can fall into a perjury trap even if you're totally innocent. because if the government chooses to believe somebody else's truth, somebody whose a bot witness or a rented witness, who testifies contradictory to what you have said under oath, that they perjury trap. more important, what your previous guest said, this idea of a fraud on the fisa court. the fisa court is unique, they,

only hear one side of the story, from the government. they have to trust the government. and when the government doesn't provide them information, everybody's civil liberties, everybody's civil rights are in danger. >> sean: we know that it was the fbi director, comey, and sara's reported this, signed the first fisa application. i just gave you the history of all of the red flags that they purposely ignored. so, on top of the fisa warrant, sara, correct me if i'm wrong, it says verified. comey put the signature on it. then he went to trump tower just a few months later and said it was not verified, but salacious. and now loretta lynch has accused james comey, super patriot that he is, mr. integrity that he is, of lying when he claimed she directed him to say it's a matter, not an investigation. who's lying there? >> well, we have to get to the bottom of that. that's not just a matter of words. you're not supposed to bee

deceiving, obviously, the public, any more than you're supposed to be deceiving the court. i just think it's so important to understand that what could be done to the people who the fisa court issued warrants against, could be done to any american. that's why every civil libertarian should be concerned and focused on what happened here with the fisa court. this is an unusual court that requires the trust of everybody who files an application. there's a continuing obligation. even if what you said was true at the time you signed the application, if you find out anything else that's inconsistent, you have an immediate obligation to to the court. if they didn't inform the court, they violated that obligation and that trust. >> sean: last word, sara carter. >> we're starting to see people throw each other under the bus, sean, not just loretta lynch and james comey, but john brennan and james comey. the audience should keep their eye on that.

because a lot more information is going to be coming out. >> sean: apparently we're talking to similar birdies, because all of that information is being confirmed to us tonight on the show. we aren't the ones that lied to the american people for two years. thanks to all of our ensemble cast. up next, well, he's back. at the great one, mark levin, he's going toon weigh in on the liberal media's hate trumper age and psychosis. later, socialism rising in america, we'll tell you why this is an awful thing. by the way, you won't believehi what joyless behar over at "the view" says should happen to every republican. all of them. i'm glad i'm a registered conservative. straight ahead. candace-- new chicken creations from starkist. buffalo style chicken in a pouch-- bold choice, charlie! just tear, eat... mmmmm. and go! try all of my chicken creations! chicken!

nobody thought that was possible. more than 5 million americans have been lifted off of food stamps. t we're getting americans off welfare and back into the workforce. and it is happening by the thousands and thousands. >> sean: that was the president in pennsylvania last night. now, even as the trump economy roars, the hate-trump media mob raging on in a psychotic state, trying tos, drown out the president'smp success with never-ending lies and smears and besmirchments. and accusations. but look at this poll from quinnipiac, voters overwhelmingly support and love the trump economy. look at this, a whopping 71% describe it as, quote, "good or excellent." the highest in nearly two decades, 18 years. 52% say they were better off

financially than they were in 2016. far fewer say they support the president. okay, he did it, though. why?en it's been like we've been telling you, the democrats, the media mob, are committed every second, minute, hour, every 24-hour day, every seven-day week, all year long. it is attack, attack, attack. they never show their audiences these facts, this reality, this incredible success story. they just double down on smears, lies, conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory. and the man who is exposing at all, this is a phenomenal new book. it gives a history, brings us right up too present day as it relates to the corrupt press in this country. "on freedom of the press." i call him the great one for a reason, also the host of the number one show on sunday night, really killing it for us "life, liberty, levin," nationally

syndicated radio host, that is enough introduction paired mark levin. great one, how are you? >> how are you, my brother? >> sean: mark, i want you to go-- we went through the history, i want you to take where we are and where is the-- what is the status of the media now? >> let's look at this way, let's break it down this way. when is the last time "the new york times" and "washington post" run a positive news story about the president of the united states? or a negative news story about pelosi, nadler, schumer? think about it. when is the last time "the new york times" or "washington post" published a leak that was positive about the president oh supportive of the president? name one host on cnn or msnbc who is right of center, just one. now, the president of the united states, they questioned his mental health, right? did they ever question nancy pelosi's mental health? why? did they ever question jerry nadler's mental health? why not? tax returns.s. q

why are the media disinterested in paul and nancy pelosi's tax returns? they're multimillionaires, she's speaker of the house, all legislation comes through her. we now see there's issues with elijah cummings, a piece in the "washington examiner," where his wife runs these rhetorical foundations, an enormous amount of money comes into those foundations. and she gets a big paycheck from those foundations. and some of those who are donating, or have donated, are overseen by his committee. why don't we have the tax returns of nancy pelosi and the bank records of nancy pelosi and all the chairman of these committees, all of the members of these committees? why are the members of the media absolutely disinterested in thi this? why are joe biden and hunter biden and their influence peddling with a foreign government untouchable? why aren't these issues, why aren't these investigated? in another example, we talk about executive privilege. i hear the so-called legal experts and senior this and senior that talking about executive privilege like it's never been asserted before.

so the media doesn't provide any context for their audience, in many respects. george washington was the first to assert executive president. executive privilege. dwight eisenhower, no particular order, just thinking about it. ronald reagan, jimmy carter, georgeti w. bush. grover cleveland, barack obama, bill clinton, i'm sure there are many others. so why does a president exert executive privilege? because he is trying to hide crimes or financialal misconduc, doesn't want information to get out? you know, because he's protecting the executive branch from congress. it doesn't say in the constitution that congress gets whatever it wants, that congress can issue whatever subpoena it wants against anyone it wants for their personal records, for whatever it is. congress doesn't function that way, isn't supposed to. executive privilege can be asserted for a number of reasons, includingto protecting the privacy of white house deliberations.

that is a president with immediate staff, like don mcgahn, his lawyer.y i heard somebody say, i forget which network it was on, i just said, gee, what a knucklehead. they present themselves as a legal analyst. the president waived privilege with don mcgahn, he allowed him to speak to the prosecutor. the prosecutor is in the executive branch. we're talking about asserting privilege against congress getting the information for mr.mcgahn.pr two different things, it was never waived. so what does mr.nadler do, whose tax returns i'd like to see and psychological makeup as well, what does he do?o well, he claims that the fact that they can't get don mcgahn should start discussions about impeachment.t so i president asserting executive privilege, like other presidents have, to protect the executive branch, the office of the president, should start a discussion about impeachment? and, of course, over chris cuomo at cnn, dumb as aa rock, allows that to go through.um

now they want hope hicks, a confidant to the president, and amy donaldson, the chief of staff of the white house counsel, all of these people fit within the circle of close advisors and confidants of the president of the united states. they'll never get them but they want the media -- all for the media, they want the drama. we have subpoenas 412 times, and 412 times, he's resisted the subpoena. and he won't allow these people to talk, and nadler is on tv yesterday, complete fraud and disgrace, and he accused the president of the united states last night, he announced that he's committed crimes. is he a judge? is he a jury? is he a prosecutor? no, he's just another, may i say, jerk politician from newyork city. and now he's declared that the president has committed crimes. while he's waving around the constitution of the united states, in his star chamber. let me explain a few other things. mr.nadler, you're interested in tax returns. why aren't you interested in obama's tax returns? you're interested in bank

accounts. why aren't you interested in obama's tax returns?st you're interested in making sure there's no foreign influence with a president of the united states. i don't remember you all worked up with johnny chong, the riyahdi group, the money that flowed into the clinton campaign, flowed into the dnc, millions and millions of dollars. i don't remember you demanding a special counsel. here's what half the country knows: nadler is a fraud. the democrats in the house are a fraud. they want to reverse the't course of the country,er they want to disenfranchise the 63 million americans who voted for them. here's what else they know: the democrats have the press in their back pocket, and the press has the democrats in their back pocket. you want to know all of thee details? check outhe "unfreedom of the press," because the rest of us stand for freedom. press, not the perversion of the first amendment. >> sean: number one book on amazon.com for a reason. a must-read, i have read

it cover-to-cover, one of the best. by the way, nadler, he didn't even want the starr report out. what a phony hypocrite. changed the laws from the independent counsel to the special counsel. great one, this is a must-read. this is about real press and real corruption and the media mob, thank you.

on "the view", joyless behar, had this to say about republicans. kind, loving, liberal that she is. take a look. >> nixon was, he said, i was in the wrong period of history. [laughing] he would have gotten away with everything, just like this corrupt president is getting away with. this is an unbelievable corruption, corrupt president, corrupt administration. and the republican party is right behind him, and they all should be thrown into jail, as far as i'm concerned. lock 'em up. >> sean: a conservative, registered conservatives included in that? i'm not a registered republican. pretty unbelievable. but at the cannes film festival, independent filmmaker trying to get distribution for a movie called "when women rule the world." sounds good until you see the project's gruesome film poster, portraying a decapitated president trump's head, "make

america great again" hat. here with reaction, fox news contributor dan bongino, and geraldo rivera. you're laughing the most, geraldo, why? >> because i'm a registered republican. >> sean: dan, what are you registered as? >> oh, yeah, i'm registered republican. >> sean: in newyork, you can register as a conservative. but on a serious note, the media has never been this wrong, geraldo, never, on such a high level of lies, conspiracy theories, outright deception, and a hoax. >> well, there's some truth to what you're saying. but a lot has to do with mark levin's book is about, these days people get the news from outlets that they agree with. if you spend all of your day watching "the view" and bill maher, cnn, reading "the new york times," you'll hate president trump, too. >> sean: that's not the same at fox.

with all due respect-- there are people on air here that probably hate every word i say. just guessing. >> you're probably right about that. >> sean: go ahead. >> i think that everybody should spend five, ten minutes a day watching a news>> outlet they do not agree with. i think, like my wife and i, erica watches msnbc, maybe puts on grudgingly fox to see me, then she-- she comes in, she's mad at me. why are you mad at me? president trump is a liar and a cheat and a thief, you know,w, womanizer, and martian, and you name it. you know, that's part of the problem, we don't communicate any more. there are people like joy behar, tom arnold, rob reiner,

anna navarro, these are people i really like. now, when you hear the tone of their discourse regarding the president of the united states, this there is absolutism about the worst possible spin on whatever he's doing. it's very disappointing to me. and i don't know how you work this through. >> sean: you reallyre are a unifier, who you really are. dan, you add that to the new green deal, you add the rage of trump, 43% of americans have embraced some form of socialism. it's failed everywhere it's tried. >> yeah, and there is a reason for that. that's why i have to disagree with geraldo about watching other networks you disagree with. the reason you disagree other networks is because they say things that aren't true. why would i want to want to msnbc to hear about a collision hoax that never happened? i don't understand why people -- that is why maddow's ratings are in the can. people understand for two years they wasted their time. and on this socialism question,

they do the same thing on socialism. the media wants you to believe socialism is norway. socialism is cuba and venezuela. socialism is the government control of the means of production. the taking of your private property. the media wants you to believe, you know, it's summers and long vacations in europe. why would i watch that crap? >> sean: it's a function of age also. >> if you're not a liberal as a young person you have no heart. if you're conservative you have no brain. >> sean: good to see you, geraldo. thank you both. when we come back you won't believe who's getting released from prison. trace gallagher has the details, villain of the day. straight ahead.

♪ ♪ >> sean: the villain of the day. remember john walker?il a big release from the indiana prison, trace gallagher has the very latest. that guy that joined the taliban, that one.

>> upon his release this week from an indiana prison, he will be under supervision for three years and banned from communicating with extremists but he has already said he will continue to advocate for global jihad. in 2016 the counterterrorism center said he remains as radicalized as he was in 2001. in november 2001, he along with a group of taliban fighters was captured by u.s. forces in afghanistan just hours later they staged an uprising that killed 500 including cia operations officer who had just finished interviewing him. back in march his mother said "he had the opportunity to tells him that you are an american, we have weapons in this building and we are going to overtake this fort. he chose not to because he was a taliban."

he grew up in northern california and dropped out of high school to head to the middle east and had refused to denounce radical ideology. h >> sean: trace gallagher thank you. we will never be the media mob let not your heart be troubled. >> laura: you have to say, i will always be raging for the truth. don't state your identity in the negative, you are truth teller. can i rebrand? >> sean: you have to come on and attack me. i want to say one thing. there weren't a lot of us and this is true. every newsroom in america was wrong for two plus years. every single one without exception. it took the talk show hosts that actually are members of the press and actually do let's see news at times and investigative reporting.
