>> sean: do you support walls on our border? >> i support border security but not walls. >> sean: no walls? >> i don't think we need additional walls. look, there's 11 million people here right now -- >> sean: there is more. >> maybe. i don't get this discussion bluntly on this network and a lot of other places. a lot of people have been here for decades. this is the biggest don't ask, don't tell in american history.n why are we allowing ourselves to be divided by the people when this already happened? there is no invasion. there are these people already that are part of our community. >> sean: 90% of the heroin crosses the southern border. fentanyl, a big percentage crosses the southern border. we lose 300 people a week. you know all about the opioid epidemic. >> we fight it every day. >> sean: you have to save these kids. so my question is, i think a 99% of people that want to come here want what we have and i don't

blame them. there is 1%, though, two year period there were 4,000 homicides, 30,000 sexual assaults, 100,000 violent assaults by illegal criminal illegals. the 1%, i want to be very clear. my question to you is very simple. if you don't have a wall, how are you going to stop them? >> people get in with a wall, without a wall, that's not howar you do it. what you do is you create an actual border security mechanism, you use every tool you need and you create a reality in our communities -- >> sean: no walls? >> communities where police and communities working together.mm in this city, we have 170 crimes, they are undocumented, they are out of here. they are out of fear. we work at these communities that find people who have done people thought about things that are inappropriate. >> sean: you have a sort of sanctuary city -- >> i don't accept any of these terms. i want to talk about facts. >> sean: here's the facts. bill de blasio has nearly 500,000 illegal immigrants in his city. those are the census facts.

so they are healthy, not get each other sick. >> sean: even if they are illegal? >> even if they are illegal. because otherwise the what's happening, people go to the emergency room, the taxpayer pays anyway, people get sicker. these are human beings who are part of our economy, part of our neighborhood. every neighborhood in this city, there is not a sign that says who is undocumented. >> sean: i got your answer. i understand. >> wait, wait. do you agree that people go to the emergency room they are sick and we end up paying for it anyway? >> sean: if you want to change the laws -- my answer is i believe -- no nation, we are a constitutional republic -- a review of our, i reviewed the rule of law. and i understand, i think why 99% of people want to be here, because they want what we all take for granted that god has given us. i want to have a wall to stop the heroin -- let me finish -- hestop the cartels -- >> that does not answer my question. >> sean: i am answering your question. i want criminal elements to be vetted and i want a big door that says welcome to our family, welcome to our

country. after we bought you. >> you want comprehensive immigration reform. you have 11 million people here right now. >> sean: i'm telling you. >> do you want comprehensive immigration reform? >> sean: after we build the wall and secure our borders, my answer is absolutely, we give those highly coveted slots to the people that respect our laws. >> sean, this is why it's such a charade. you've got 11 million people -- it is a charade.ra stop it. what you are doing and what your network does too often is try to distract people -- >> sean: by the way, there are people on my network who don't like a single thing i say! what are you talking't about? >> i agree you are not a monolith but too much of the time is what fox news corporation do is take peoples' minds off the fact they are being screwed economically by the 1%. f >> sean: we are going to get to that. i promise. after the lightning round -- which isn't really lightning -- we'll get back to that. you are honestly going to tell me why it's okay that the 1% is paying less and less in taxes. >> sean: we are going to get

back to taxes, i promise you. >> i'll be watching. >> sean: you're sitting right here, a monitor right there. you can watch yourself. >> i'm watching. >> sean: you came with some of new york's finest. if you go to work every day like the people who are with you to protect you, which i fully support, because these are dangerous times. and they are our police officers and they are armed. and we have a big debate -- i've been a responsible gun owner my life. somebody calls in my radio show and asked me what gun should i get and i say what safety courses are you going to take? that's how serious. my mom was a prison guard in long island. for 25 years. 16 hour shifts every day. >> god blessto her. >> sean: she had a loaded gun next to her bed and she made sure that dopey 10-year-old kid mead made sure how to a firearm. you have that, hollywood stars

can afford armed guards. should every american, if god forbid the criminal element invades their home, invades their property, to have a gun in their home to >> you are in the safest big protect themselves? city in america. >> sean: i did not ask you that. >> i'm prefacing. you preface things all the time. finest police force in america. crime has gone down six years in a row on my watch. >> sean: that's true. >> it is true. thank you. i believe what's wrong in this country not that people have rights around guns, it's that there are no gun safety measures like background checks -- >> sean: we do have background checks. i don't buy a gun without a background check. >> we don't have sufficient background checks. >> sean: i have a carry license in new york. i had to walk over hot coals -- >> we are talking about the whole country.

ask the nypd, they tell you they believe in strong gun laws to keep police officers and civilians safe. >> sean: my question is simple, if they are mentally stable, if they have the background check, don't have a criminal background or a mental illness problem, should average people, should they have the same safety you have? if somebody breaks into their house, would you respect their right to have a firearm in their house? >> everybody deserves to be safe.av the answer is not for everyone to have a firearm -- >> sean: the answer is no. >> i believe people have rights but i also believe we need background checks, assault weapon ban. because what's happening -- >> sean: you are dodging. >> i am not dodging. all the guns that are out there that are threatening our officers and civilians alike, a that's a problem. >> sean: i'm asking you, should every new yorker have the same protection you have? >> i believe people have rights

and we should have new gun safety laws. we have a police department and i've added 2,000 officers on patrol the last few years that's making it safer all the time. that's the best way to protect people. >> sean: should every new yorker that has a perfect mental health -- hold on, have a perfect mental health record and have a background check, would you agree that they have a right, do you agree they have a right to have a gun in their house? >> they have a right to be safe. >> sean: great, do they have a right to their gun? yes or no? the safest way is to have us >> i'm answering you. to police department -- >> sean: you're not answering. >> sean: by the time you call the cops, even if it's a great response time, you might be dead! >> again, we have a different -- >> sean: you are protected! you have a team around you! every new yorker, someone breaks in your house, good people, law-abiding people who pay their taxes, obey the rules, pass the background check, should they have a right to a gun in their house? >> i ain't buying what you are t selling. >> sean: so the answer >> my answer is my answer. is no but you're afraid to say

it. you don't get to tell other people what your answer is. >> sean: should new yorkers have a right to the gun in their house? >> the question is how do we get people safe -- >> sean: that is not the question. >> how do wes get guns out of te society that are everywhere, there are threatening officers and civilities? >> sean: your answer is new yorkers who are willing to go through background checks don't allow a gun in their home? >> i just don't play by your rules. you do this with everyone. let people define themselves. you want to hear the truth? >> sean: can you have a gun is a simple question if they are law-abiding? >> you are trying to set up a reality where you get to paint a picture on your own terms. it doesn't work that way. >> sean: mr. mayor, what did i say? i said, thank you to what you do every day. they protect you. you deserve to be protected. you are the mayor of the biggest city -- t >> everyone deserves to be protected and that's what we are doing here. >> sean: they can't get a gun? >> again, ask law enforcement if they want everyone to have a gun.

it's not the way to keep people safe. >> sean: i appreciate you being here, it's a simple question and you are dodging and flipping -- >> i told you what i believe. >> sean: all right, it's fair. just say it's in the wrong hands. so here is sean hannity who's been financially independent since he's ten. you know all the jobs i havee' done. >> i heard it. but what's your answer? >> sean: do you think the money i've earned and saved is in the wrong hands? yes or no, do you think the money i've made is in the wrong hands? >> listen to what i'm saying. do you think right now your viewers feel that it's okay that the wealthy have as much as they have and pay little in taxes? do you think that big corporations, they pay nothing in taxes, do you think that's okay? >> sean: do you know how much i may? operations pay taxes on people. >> corporations that pay no taxes in america. amazon is one of them. do you think that's okay? >> sean: all i know is this. i've always known in my career -- and we learned with lois lerner --dash i better pay

my taxes because if i don't, i have no doubt that obama- obama-biden -- here is what i will say. the kid that started out with nobody, started in radio to work for free and made $19,000 a year, i left my home in new york and i went five years in $ rhode island, two years alabama four years georgia, and i got lucky. i got hired here. i'm asking, you want $0.70 of every dollar i have and you want more if i've saved too much and you want more when i drop dead. i think you are stealing from me. >> i want working-class people and middle-class people to get a better life.e. >> sean: do i deserve that money because you say it's in the wrong hands? >> this is my general view of the world. you got here with the help of friendly government policy. i'm not taking away from your work. but the rich have gotten richer for 40 years and paid less and less in taxes. corporations in america are paying nothing in taxes. that's not america. that's not america where the

chosen few get to hold the money. >> sean: when you raise corporations' taxes, what do you think they do? >> i think the problem with your whole line here is you think the status quo is okay. i don't think your viewers that the status quo is okay. >> sean: what do you think corporations do when government like you raises their taxes? >> they have to pay their fair share.he >> sean: they pass the cost on to consumers. corporations don't pay taxes. >> do you think it's okay that there are ceos making 300-400 times than their companies are paying? >> sean: you are talking to the wrong guy. i'm a blue-collar guy. i worked 25 years -- >> do you think it's okay if there are ceos in america that paid 200-400 times what an average company worker is making? do you think that's okay? >> sean: i'm so happy that i gave you the numbers under biden-obama and i gave you the number under trump. the new york mets had all these

players -- >> i gave the keys of the city to the mets, they are still with us. and bud, i gave each of the keys to the city. >> sean: when do i get my key to the city? >> if you join the mets. >> sean: [laughs] >> if you join the mets. you might have a chance.av the bottom line is, i don't hear you saying -- >> sean: you should thank donald trump. do you know why? listen, i believe in god. i believe god created every man, woman, child on this earth. with all my heart, i need to be a better christian, but i want to be a christian. i really believe that. we have the best employment situation since 1969, the lowest unemployment, recordio unemployment for african-americans, asian-americans -- >> those numbers. >> sean: numbers?

those are jobs. >> what has happened for decades before that? this is what you don't answer. from reagan to now, the rich and got consistently richer, paying less and less taxes. 40 years is a long time, we've got to break out of it. do you know what the good old days were? eisenhower and kennedy, when the wealthy paid taxes at the level i am proposing, wealth was better shared, there is more business, i run a huge, huge -- >> sean: have you ever run a private business? >> excuse me, 80,000 employees, a budget -- >> sean: have you ever run a private business? >> i'm asking and you don't want to answer the'm question. do you believe that in the last 40 years, working-class and middle-class people have not moved forward? they will tell you that they have not. >> sean: my grandparents came to ellis island. >> that's the point! the american dream! the american dream they had,

they don't have. >> sean: they came here with on average ten bucks in their pocket, all four of my grandparents. my father grew up poor in bed-stuy. they had nothing growing up, absolutely nothing. my father fights in world war ii. >> so did my dad. >> sean: he got a 5500 lot, $13,000 house? that was success. the question is we can do better, but government is not the answer, mr. mayor. you talk a lot about money being in the wrong hands. are you saying the people who have money stole it? >> can i give you an exact quote, let's be fair? there is plenty of money in this world, there's plenty of money in the country, it's just in the fwrong hands. because of federal policy that took it from working people and give it to the 1%. >> sean: you want to give it back. >> i want working people to get their fair share. should anybody be working for less than $15 an hour? >> sean: i don't like the minimum wage -- >> you describe your life as a

working man, i respect that. >> sean: i washed dishes at 12. >> do you think people shoulde get $15 an hour in today's economy. >> sean: no, it hurts kids tout get the jobs. we have record youth unemployment -- >> talk about people trying to support their family. you do not think people working hard to get $15 minimum-wage? >> sean: mr. mayor, let me talk about the numbers. >> this is what the labor movement has fought for years. >> sean: you said the following, the money is in the wrong hands, and you want to tax the hell out of people. >> people should go to taxthehell.com and people should see my tax plan. >> sean: i have it, i want to go over with you. so the top 1% pay 30% of the taxes -- the body 50% of american wage earners pay 1% federal income tax. 50% pays one and the other 50%, the rich, who you want to take more from, they pay it all. so my question is, your city in

new york, let's go over new york for example. the top marginal rate, i don't get the deduction any longer because of the president's tax deal -- >> i think that's a mistake. >> sean: i pay higher taxes. >> the president was wrong to take away state and local -- >> sean: he made me pay more. >> by the way, middle-class people, working-class people paid for that action by your friend, thein president. >> sean: what should the federal tax rate for individuals, 70%? >> folks who make over $2 million when you combine everything. 70%, when you combine everything. >> sean: that means they get to keep 30%. you take $0.70 out of every dollar. >> how long did we have this in this country for decades? dwight eisenhower, john f. kennedy, that was a tax rate then. >> sean: $0.70 out of every dollar. corporations, what should they pay, was the top marginal rate for corporations that you want to? >> right now it's way too low. >> sean: give me a number, ballpark.. >> 40%-50%. >> sean: no business wants to be in business and they will pass the cost on to the consumers and we'll lose jobs.

>> wait a minute. >> sean: i want you to know what i pay in new york. i pay the 9% estate tax, i pay the city tax, my income goes to you. i don't even live here. i don't live in the city. by the way, just saying. >> you make a good income here. >> sean: new york city has a 8.75 sales tax on top of that and then if people come out of the 30% you will let them keep, you want to then come back later and say, well, if you saved millions, i want 1% more, 2% more, 3% more, you want another bite of the apple after they paid the $0.70 on the dollar. one more thing, and then if youo drop dead, then new york gets another 60%. the federal government gets 40%. >> what about all the working people who created all the wealth, the guy who owns the factory, the company did not make the wealth. the people did the work. >> sean: why do you feel you have the right -- >> they are not getting their fair share.

the building, what you said. >> wait, we didn't say anything like that. >> sean: they are going to raise the rent on peoples of the people are going to pay for it. >> they are going to demand of building owners, build green, stop the greenhouse gas emissions that are killing all of us. i know you care about your children, grandchildren. i care about my children, grandchildren. >> sean: of course, i care about everyone in the city. >> we cannot go on this way but we want a green new deal and what are the key things is buildings don't emit what they used to. that means a lot those building owners are doing very well, they can handle the front cost and make it back. because retrofitting -- >> sean: you say that like people have unlimited resources. some people i know own apartments have lost money on apartments, they've lost money in buildings. >> but here's the option. if we don't do something, this earth is in great danger. >> sean: how many years do we have left? how dangerous is it?

>> it's very dangerous. the u.n. estimate is 12 years before we deal with much bigger problems. >> sean: then why are we even doing this? let's just there a big party. >> let's get to work. the green new deal gives us that opportunity. >> sean: if you are going to eliminate steel and glass -- >> not eliminate it. >> sean: you punish it. >> put the retrofits in. if you want to steel and glass, build it green. >> sean: okay, that means everyone who rents those rooms or offices or apartments are going to pay more. my question is, do you have an alternative, are there other materials that you can use besides steel and glass? >> i'm not an expert on building materials but there's a lot out there. >> sean: we can't use trees. >> status quo is not working. the earth is more and more dangerous. sandy, you saw what hurricane sandy did in new york city. look at it, 40 plus billions

of dollars in damage. thousands of lives lost. buildings are one of the biggest emitters in there. we have to do something, this law in the new york city is the toughest. i will happily get you a list of building materials but the point i'm making to you, we do the status quo, we are endangering the future of the city. >> sean: that means tens and hundreds of millions of dollars in additional cost to build a new building and retrofit an old building, those costs will be put on the residents of new york. >> so you want to do nothing? you are to give immediate answer. what do you want to do? >> sean: i do not buy into the u.n. hysteria. >> you don't believe in global warming? >> sean: we need to be good stewards of our environment -- let me finish. by being good stewards, we have to understand something. the lifeblood of america's economy? >> you aren't answering. >> sean: follow the bouncing ball.

it's not that hard. i'm telling you. follow me and you will get your answer. the lifeblood of every economy in this world is oil, gas, and coal. now in the new green deal, in ten years, it says it wants to eliminate all use of oil, gas, and coal. do you support that? >> i support us as quickly as possible -- >> sean: not answering again. >> you didn't even let me finish. first of all, you didn't answer answer -- >> sean: i'll make a deal for you. when i'm running for president, and you get your own show, when it's my show, you answer my questions. >> you don't have an honest opinion. >> sean: do you want to be president? >> yes. >> sean: answer my question. oil and gas are the lifeblood of our economy -- >> we have to ban fossil fuels. >> sean: how quickly? new green deal says ten years. >> get all fossil fuels, get it as quickly as possible.

>> sean: the new green deal says ten years, get off of fossil fuels -- >> get people in those industries. >> sean: i get it. how many years? all the greenn new deals of obama didn't work out. >> wait a minute. you are saying to me that you don't believe in global warming? >> sean: i'm saying the opposite to you. i am saying to you we should be good stewards of our environmen environment. i am s recognizing the truth tht you failed to recognize, that every economy in this world is run on oil, gas, and coal, and if america gets offered, as the green new deal that you support has, in ten years, you will watch the greatest depression in thee quickest. backup time, and it will destroy americans. >> in germany -- >> sean: they import natural gas from the idiot vladimir putin. >> germany has moved away from gas -- >> sean: angela merkel just signed a $7 billion deal to maks russia rich again! >> the question is -- >> sean: this isn't your show.

see what's out there? "hannity." it does not say de blasio. i ask the questions. you want to be president, right? >> sean: how many years? >> i want it to be quick as possible. we can turn to renewables. we can create jobs with renewables. we can protect our children and grandchildren. >> sean: you think we can transfer our dependence on oil,g gas, and coal, and tradition to renewables. my question is what are they renewables and how much do they cost? >> i look at my equation of the other way around. the renewables are wind, solar,n hydro, geothermal. >> sean: we have a lot of room. you are going to put it in the hudson? >> we'll put it in long island -- >> sean: the kennedy compound. >> bottom line, these are technologies that are working all over the world. if we don't change quick, we are in a lot of danger. i worry what's going to happen to future generations and i do not like what ige see.

these weather events are not mistakes, sean. this flooding, the wildfires, it's happening because of global warming. we can't go on this way. >> sean: in the '70s, you can look at "time" magazine and it said that the new ice age is coming. then it was in the '80s, the world is overheating. now it's this generality that is climate change, that fits every climate condition. even ocasio-cortez, congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez chief of staff said, the green new deal had nothing to do with climate change. it's about an agenda. a socialist agenda. when we come back, more billst de blasio, including something he recently implemented in new york. and he challenged me on. it's called meatless mondays. i decided we should have a bet. we'll show you next. ♪ doug, doug!
