tv Hannity FOX News December 11, 2019 6:00pm-7:00pm PST
6:00 pm
the president's personal lawyer. he released the phone records of the republican member of congress. this is scary stuff. this is scary stuff, and, welcome to hannity. we are tracking two major stories in real time and breaking as we speak the latest chapter in the democratic's witch trial in their latest attempt at conspiracy theory, the coup attempt is unfolding. they are as you can see right here debating something that is nothing but a bit vague and baseless b.s. articles of impeachment, to that mean nothing against the president. in the race is on. they have never moved faster. they have allowed a zero due process, only one back witness
6:01 pm
his statement was that it completely exculpatory for the president. and even as it withers on the vine. the impeachment is at an all-time low. the president's poll numbers are surging and tonight we will monitor all night, we will show you in the corner there the sham hearing as it unfolds. first, we turn to a much more important and actual factual hearing that took place on capitol hill earlier today. bombshell new testimony from inspector general horowitz as he appeared before the senate judiciary committee of lindsey graham. it showed one thing that is perfectly clear under the corrupt leadership of jim comey, that guy. a small group of high-ranking powerful officials, and as the
6:02 pm
ex-inspector general also confirmed, they did it at the height of the election. and then beyond. they literally wrecked the reputation of one private citizen, outright lied on for separate warrant applications and the omitted exculpatory evidence. the even doctored team material to say something just the opposite of what it meant. nothing was verified. 17 significant failures in accuracy and omission. this is beyond really bad but don't take my word for it. let's listen to what the inspector general horowitz had to say earlier today. >> how would you describe the behavior here of knowing that the sub sub saurus disavowed the dossier and that was a primary reason you got a warrant? finding that a lawyer doctored an email to keep the investigation going in a way unfair to mr. page. this is not routine. do you agree with that? >> it is not -- it certainly
6:03 pm
better not be routine and i don't know any reason to think it is routine. >> is it off the charts bad? >> it's pretty bad. >> sean: it's thanks to them, the world's -- it has been tarnished. by the way, director wray, you are not showing the emergency and commitment in terms of restoring this law enforcement. and by the way to the brave men and women who serve every day and put their lives at risk for us every day, and the fbi, the rank and file, those people that protect and defend us every day they all deserve better. our country deserves better. director wray, step up. clean up this, the premier law enforcement agency. do it for the men and women who serve for the country.
6:04 pm
i've offered him 325 of the greatest radio stations in the country and a full hour right here on the number one show in cable news now for years. i have offered him a grand total of four hours of airtime anyone accept it because he does not want to be confronted with his own corruption, fraud, lies and dishonesty. tonight we will li layout is deception because on monday, he was proudly and arrogantly telling us that the inspector general's report totally eradicated him. jimbo, you are delusional. >> two years of sitting silently with the fbi while you were lied about and finally the truth is out. there was no treason, conspiracy, no tapping of the trumps wires and no putting in
6:05 pm
form and sent to the campaign, it was all nonsense. the fbi finally has its stay with the american people and i hope they pay attention to it. spiel and no wiretapping? no informants? did he even read the report before taking his conceited arrogant victory lap? jim, you might want to begin to listen to inspector general horowitz. you are anything but vindicated, that's just your latest life. take a look. >> the former fbi director said this week, is not a fair assessment of your report? >> the activities that we've seen here don' hasn't touched anybody. >> you should listen to mr. horowitz. he's not vindicated and to be concerned about the fisa warrant process is not nonsense. >> no one is you just heard is
6:06 pm
vindicated in the report. wrong again. 17 significant failures and accuracies and omissions, every single one bolstered by the application for a warrant. it ends up being a single source material, circular reporting, zero verification as the dirty clinton bought and paid for russian dossier was unverifiab unverifiable. where did you all hear this? it wasn't the cnn or abc cbs or "new york times" or "washington post." there was no corroboration, forged evidence in this case or a vital exculpatory information totally and completely omitted. and without this fraudulent opinion, no warrant had been
6:07 pm
granted. it's clear because it was basically the entire applicati application, all four times. james comey signed off on 3 of 4 of those phase applications and he knew what was going on. it's where the evidence was true and accurate and at the top of the fisa warrant, verified. but after he signed the first one then, president trump says it's salacious but unverified. then he goes on to sign verified two more times. liar. two years ago he said any talk of fisa abuse is nonsense. this is yet another lie. take a look. >> i have total confidence that the pfizer process was followed and the entire case was handled in a thoughtful and responsible way. i think the notion that pfizer was abused here is nonsense. >> nonsense? tonight we all know that was a complete lie.
6:08 pm
the inspector general called commies fisa abushisabuse -- ta. >> there is such a range of conduct here that is inextricable, and the answers we got were not satisfactory, that we are left trying to understand how all these errors could have occurred over a nine-month period or so. among three teams, handpicked. going to the very top of the organization and the presidential campaign. >> sean: there is no good answer for this level of abuse of power and misconduct and corruption because that's comey's fbi has turned our country's most powerful tools of intelligence against a coa political campaign didn't like obviously, using what is
6:09 pm
unverifiable dirt. absolute dirt. bought and paid for, russian, of all things, lysed by hillary clinton's campaign. and now we know that they lied repeatedly. i wouldn't lie to judge judy. if any of you lied to a judge he would probably go to jail. that's probably why he refused to renew his security clearance. that was something else we learned. why? then he couldn't be interviewed on classified information. great job mr. super patriot. no higher honor? that brings me to another call me lie. the dirty clinton bought and paid for russian dossier. watch with your own eyes. >> you called the dossier unverified and salacious. why did you use that to the pfizer core task force
6:10 pm
surveillance for carter page? not only use it but you lead with it. the bulk of that deals with that dossier. >> that's not my recollection, and i don't know the pfizer application has been released. my recollection is was part of a broader collection of facts. >> there was a lot more? >> my recollection was there was a significant amount of additional material and why he was cause to believe he was the agent of a foreign power. the dossier was part of that but was not all of it or a critical part of it. that's my recollection. >> sean: that's the little baby part. and it made up the bulk of information. we told you that a lot. the pfizer applications against carter page, the bulk of the first warrant and all the subsequent renewals. the three renewals.
6:11 pm
speaking of which, april of 2018, comey issued yet another blatant lie. for all of you in the mob who who shows you go on, if you love law enforcement, if you love our brave fbi men and women that serve this country and protect all of us, you owe it to them, never mind your audience is that you lied to every night anyway. he said he has no idea who paid for it. really, jim? you want me to believe that? >> what did you learn that the dnc and hillary clinton campaign had funded the work? >> i still don't know that for a fact. i never knew exactly which democrats have funded, and i and i know it was funded first by republicans. >> that's not true.
6:12 pm
and, and, shortly after the first application, they had greater clarity but in fact clear hillary clinton and the opposition party in presidential candidate was behind the dossier and so is jim comey ignorant of everything that happens around him were is a corrupt liar that hates president trump? that's the next example. the hits keep coming, take a look. >> what specifically did you like to mr. richmond? >> i sent mr. richmond a copy of a two-page unclassified memo and asked him to get the substance of it out to the media. >> you call them a good friend and a professor but you didn't reveal that you had hired him as a special government employee for the fbi. to work on special projects.
6:13 pm
why? >> because it wasn't relevant. >> did you leak other things to mr. richmond? >> i told him about an unclassified conversation with the president. >> because of the illicit leaking come of the inspector general referred him to the department of justice. yes, for criminal investigation, referral. durham doesn't need a referral because durham in part has the authority and power to convene a grand jury and charges can be made of. by the way. if you feel better, keep telling yourself you are not a leaguer and liar. they just pointed out moments ago, in the spring of 2016, no one knew anything about trump and russia conspiracy theory. they open the investigation, glenn simpson and fusion gps is
6:14 pm
already pushing the collision theory. that also takes money through funneled money, from perkins kalil law firm become a finance issue that went to, yes, fusion gps. and they hired foreign nationals, not supposed to influence or interfere in our elections. christopher steele, we might have an answer to all these questions in the days ahead. the attorney general, those comments that we played last night he intends to restore faith in america's premier institutions, thank god. these men and women deserve better than this. comey's behavior will be tolerated and justice will be served. senator first let me applaud y you. they might not have seen the great job you did because they only run things that are anti-trump.
6:15 pm
>> james comey has done more damage to the fbi than anybody since j. edgar hoover, and you've got a mountain to climb. if you got to come to the judiciary committee and prove to us that you will change the culture of the fbi. some people need to be fired and some people need to go to jail for what they did. and, the day of reckoning is coming but it's not here yet. be one comey was doing a victory wrap on monday. let me talk about christopher wray, he has not shown any urgency, he has not shown the urgency that's needed
6:16 pm
to get to the bottom of this and resolve this. i will tell you why it's personal. my mother was a prison guard and worked a 16 hour shifts for years and years. my father was a family court probation guy, he worked to jobs. little-known fact about sean hannity, 19-20, i was appointed to the new york police academy. no idea why they even approved me. two members of my family, they were fbi guys. one of them is still alive today and he is more angry about this for all the hard work and risks he has taken for his country. and this is what i'm hearing from everybody and law enforcement. >> james comey is one of the most arrogant conceited people i've ever met. to suggest and and mr. horowitz
6:17 pm
did their country a great service. and you have to fix this. you heard the comments that the inspector general today, i thought they were power and added clarity to the report. their comments, i do not believe senator would be made but for knowledge that they have that they don't have, this is far deeper and far worse than anybody knows and it has taken them overseas to italy, great britain and other places.
6:18 pm
>> we know that kleinsmith they altered an email from the cia saying that basically carter page was the source. based on his statement, monday i would be worried if i were a lot of the people involved in cross fire hurricanes. if i you are involved in cross fire hurricanes your day of reckoning might be coming. as for horowitz, what did we learn today? you can have a newspaper article and that can be the basis to open up an counterintelligence investigation. the standard is incredibly low. we also learned once this investigation was open and it became a criminal enterprise, a conspiracy to defraud the fisa court, to trample on the rights of carter page and to basically illegally surveilled
6:19 pm
donald trump. the reason they never briefed donald trump defensively about the threats coming from russia was they did not want to protect trump, they wanted to destroy trump. from the day they got elected until this thing was overcome people in charge of the highest levels were out to get this guy. they didn't believe he was legitimate and were doing everything they could with every opportunity to keep it going to try to catch him and finally, they sent an fbi agent in an interview that was supposed to be an intelligence interview and an intelligence assessment and intelligence briefing. the fbi agent was basically there to -- in the way he set up general flynn, it was that repulsive. i will say, when you devin nunes of a new nose says this, that concerns me with the safety of
6:20 pm
this country. >> one last thing. mr. rosenstein, get ready to testify. >> sean: senator graham, thank you. now let's turn to the ongoing charade. moments ago jerry nadler had a rare moment of clarity saying democrats have to impeach pro-trump because he might actually win the election. can't make this up, take a look. >> we can't rely on election to solve our problems on the president's threatens the very integrity of that. so with a heavy heart, including my duty to my country i support these articles of impeachment. i urge my colleagues to support them as well. >> sean: o come a moment of real clarity. you know he's really saying there? we the people might, yeah, shocked the world again. and 328 days and i pray we do. imagine fake news cnn, they know project that donald j. trump has
6:21 pm
been reelected, the 45th president of the united states. and we the people, you get to do it. here now, house minority leader kevin mccarthy. let's get your analysis of your analysis report, and where you think this is going and especially the comments of durham and bar. >> was and an excellent hearing today. what you just told us, the only thing that compares and congress is adam schiff. the number of lies that he gave, you could do that exact same report. remember what he put out in february? his report from the intel community about pfizer. nothing but lies, when you compare it to the inspector general. >> sean: congressman, let me just remind you, we laid it out. last night, his words for the truth. and we got more tonight.
6:22 pm
tomorrow night, jim comey, you will want to lose watch the show. >> what you are watching on the side is happening right now in congress. you just saw another say with a heavy heart, he campaigned to become chairman. you know what he told his colleagues? he would be the best for impeachment. they've always had a time timeline. these people, it was so outrageous to me, they'd rather impeach than investigate government overreach. they should be calling horowitz in there, not impeaching the president. and that committee, two-thirds of those democrats have already voted for impeachment before they read anything. >> sean: first they announce it before they even hear from the nonwhistle-blower. then, they start with liquid, pro, quelled. then they focus on this nebulous abuse of power and obstruction
6:23 pm
because the president used executive privilege like every other president before him for the purpose of resolving differences between the judicial and executive branches which is where remedy is made. >> you have three branches of government but in this congress, and that's the level that we think. but it goes to show, and he says after this fails they want to impeach them again. this is what america should be afraid of. if these people keep the majority, that is what they will continue to do. it's better to put the country first. >> it's a great to see republicans finally fighting. we've been waiting this for a long time. and now they are coming together, don't let them stop. when we come back, two key
6:24 pm
senators tell us why the pfizer report is even worse than you think. and i had a lot to say about the compromise to corrupt congenital liar as we continue. ♪ man: sneezes skip to the good part with alka-seltzer plus. now with 25% more concentrated power. nothing works faster for powerful cold relief. oh, what a relief it is! so fast!
6:27 pm
6:28 pm
>> sean: that we are monitoring the house impeachment coup attempt. despite the horrors we are witnessing in the pfizer report, and yes mr. super patriot comey trying to defend himself, at least one senator hasn't know mike isn't having any of this. >> there is no planet in which i think this report indicates that things were okay within the fbi. in connection with the investigation, they most
6:29 pm
certainly were not. and yet stunningly, former fbi director jim comey took to the pages of the washington's post. they fulfill the mission protecting the american people and upholding the u.s. constitution. >> i don't understand that. >> sean: michael he is with us. one of the things i've known about you for years, and one of the things i've known about you for years is you are heavy and it deep into the constitution. let's look at this constitutionafrom aconstitutiond what this all means and what you interpret from it. >> one of the things he's seen is democrats in -- have been making this point over and over again. this investigation was not politically motivated and that it was legitimate. now with the inspector general's report and the testimony before
6:30 pm
the senate judiciary committee today, we see that those things cast serious doubt on both of those conclusions. we also see that there are opportunities, ripe with opportunity for abuse, which is this pfizer, the foreign intelligence surveillance act. he gave the government too much of an opportunity to spy on the american people. to do so it is i believe with the is the case here overtly political motivation. and that's wrong. >> i share your worries and concern. here's the fact though. we have a lot of evil in the world. we need north korea, russia, a hostile regime and yes russia did interfere. devin nunes warned us in 2014 that they would. we don't want to lose the powerful tools of intelligence but if it will be at the risk of
6:31 pm
those powerful tools, and you lose the constitution and in all sense of equal justice under the law. >> well, you also have to remember the fourth amendment. we have to follow the fourth amendment. the constitution is not a suicide pact in the constitution doesn't require us to turn a blind eye to our foreign adversaries. we can do those things but we have to do so within the bounds set by the constitution. we need to require people to go to court and presented judge with the statement of probable cause. where american citizen is involved, certainly where u.s. presidential campaign is involved or the rights of any american citizen is involved. they need to have probable cause as to that person's involvement in some type of corrupt or terrorist oriented enterprise. >> i don't know the full answer.
6:32 pm
i know that this can't happen again and by the way i think when this is all said and done, when we get to wyatt durham and why barb spent so much time, and i'm just guessing, but i think we might find out the outsourcing or subcontracting of illegal spies. do you believe that's a possibility? >> yes, absolutely. there are ways of handling this and there are ways of reforming the law. for nine years i've been proposing reforms to that intelligence act, and we've got to stop ignoring over and over again. sometimes it's partisan political. good anyway, good to see you.
6:33 pm
and it made him feel like he had "dropped acid." that colorful for a senator. here to discuss is senate judiciary committee member john kennedy. it should, it did mine. it's a real and i never thought it could happen here. in this country. >> i didn't really either. this is serious as four heart attacks and a stroke now.
6:34 pm
we asked mr. horowitz today, the agent is gone and many of them are still there. we don't know whether they are still in charge of pfizer applications. mr. bruce ohr who was involved in this and the department of justice is still at the department of justice. i said in committee today, it's easier to divorce your spouse then get fired around here. and i don't want to be unfair to anybody. where is he -- i love our law enforcement guys, absolutely love them. that's part of the agency we need to see. >> this is urgent. fbi is the premier law enforcement agency and all of human history. but mr. comey's rogue agents have heard that institution
6:35 pm
badly. and director ray has to fix it. and they fire them and carefully consider criminal referral for all of those who deserve it. now this was all a pack of lies. they lied to, it was all a pack of lies. this was -- i don't know. this is so dangerous for this country. it shocks the conscience. that's probably a few hurricanes that we've had in louisiana but have never been there before. >> reading it made me want to heave, that's how bad it was. >> sean: coming up, today's harlots testimony through exactly how corrupt adam schiff
6:40 pm
6:41 pm
we identified at least 17 significant errors or omissions in the carter page phase application and many additional errors in the woods procedures. not only that, it was on tv constantly. never ending lie after lie. he has told so many lies, you are a liar. a congenital liar. so much disinformation, innuendos, we don't have time to fit that in but we are going to try. take a look. >> there has been a fisa warrant granted without the inclusion of the steele dossier? >> i think, and the only testimony we have on this is a part of the complete whole of the application and all the parts that were important. the broader point was though, the only parts of the dossier they were included were those that pertain to carter page. some of that was corroborated with only the parts pertinent to carter page and if there was a corroboration of some of those very important elements. >> i think there was an effort
6:42 pm
by some to discredit the firm fusion gps, and as you say, mr. steele has a good reputation. >> with the letters that senator grassley and graham wrote urging an investigation of christopher steele, i think that's a terrible thing to do. i think christopher steele who did a patriotic duty in alerting the fbi that a presidential campaign may be compromised by the russians. >> so it is now the author of the best seller paragraph, along with author of the best seller witch hunt. fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett and also fox news investigative reporter lisa carter. he told me you trusted horowitz. he did work in a bubble but what he said today was devastating on top of his report. >> is somebody who read these things for a living for eight years, that's as devastating as it absolutely gets. five reports and more than a
6:43 pm
thousand pages, untold number of people referred to. it bears out exactly what devin nunes was telling us, it was the truth. and what adam schiff was saying was a lie lie, lie. >> mark meadows, jim jordan and gates and all of them. >> i think durham will go after the layers and it's a horse race between james comey and adam schiff. you did a wonderful job identifying call means lies. >> they start on page 100. he's the master of perfect prevarication, lied about fbi, lied about pfizer and lied about
6:44 pm
christopher steele, lied about bruce ohr, lied about collision evidence he never had and lied a lot about the dossier. this is a man who would know the truth of it ran over him. people have to be accountable for their deception so i have to begin with people like james comey, andrew mccabe come peter strzok and obviously the fbi lawyer who doctored evidence to gain the fisa warrant. >> sean: kevin kleinsmith. you know, all four of us, sara carter, all four of us here, we put our next on the chopping block but we all privately had conversations. check, double check. weeks had gone by when we had already triple checked and confirmed things just to make aaa sure we had it right. everything we said is now proven. now the question is what will durham and bar do -- every indication is, i owe, watch out.
6:45 pm
>> that's right. and this is just the beginning of another chapter. there needs to be vindication for american people and there needs to be vindication for carter page whose life has really been torn apart publicly and whose work with the country has not been exposed. now the most important thing, and i hope all the journalist that bought his lies and tainted devin nunes' name and smeared his name and everyone else's name in their publication calls adam schiff out on those lies and retract some of those stories. because they were flat out lies. if they had any dignity as journalists they would do that. >> sean: with all due respect, this was pretty much ground zero. they went missing in action chasing a phony russia collusion hoax and proven wrong with four investigations. i will say this, all of you should take a bow and that you all worked hard. i'm very proud of our entire
6:46 pm
ensemble cast because everybody worked really hard to get to the truth and of this is just the tip of the iceberg. >> chapter three called "lying on spying." >> sean: [laughs] get the book. i really didn't think this was possible. i really didn't. we have more bad news for a sleepy creepy crazy uncle joe 3.0. it's bad. next. ♪
6:50 pm
6:51 pm
anyway, the beleaguered candidate is now admitting that he may not be able to win georgia. yeah, that's a target state key one for the democrats. anyway, biden signals to aides that he would only serve a single term. he is dreaming. the writing campaign denies a report today to our own peter doocy. here with reaction, white house secretary shaun's spicer and tammy bruce. hodo i see this in a nice way? >> you say everything in a nice way. >> sean: no. how do i say this in a nice way? if he ever had a fastball, whih i don't think he did. this is a disaster for him. >> the democratic party is the oldest acting party in the world, founded in 1828, they held the white house for eight years. they at the house of
6:52 pm
representatives and united states and what this says is, they have nothing. it has collapsed, and that you have man who is running. americans don't vote for placeholders, they don't vote for the guy to wait to be the bridge. they presume you will serve eight years and it's the only way to govern. how do you govern when world leaders -- that nothing is i would matter. if the argument is he's going to make the the vice president -- who in that field as the personnel who is generating no excitement whatsoever. the bigger statement is not just the collapse of joe biden, he represents the end of the democratic party. >> sean: so when you look at the employment situation since 1969, every demographic, unprecedented hatred, then, russia and lies being exposed, they've done nothing. how does this play out in 328
6:53 pm
days from today? >> i think pretty easily. as you noted the present has unemployment rate of 3.85%, more jobs are being created and promises kept. this president did exactly what he's wanting to do. i think one of the points that you and tammy made has to be kept in context. joe biden was elected to the senate in 1972 and was he reelected six times. his run for president twice and failed. this is not some political powerhouse and people keep forgetting at the context of joe biden. he's not some strong political powerhouse and his only claim to fame was he was barack obama's running mate. it was not like he had some political dynasty that he developed and one company in the blue state, he got reelected and the democratic state. he ran twice in 1988 and was accused of plagiarism and had to drop out.
6:54 pm
then his only political achievement is being the running mate to a popular president in the democratic party. >> sean: but if they -- they lose badly. >> that's my point, he's going tto go up against trump and say, as your son or your daughter or your nephew out of your basement? did i keep my promises? yes. >> let me say that what this means is democrats can't answer questions when it gets tight. when he asked to deliver on policy, they get nothing. >> sean: up next, new video from the anti-semitic attack in jersey yesterday. you won't believe what we are learning about the shooter, that's next. ♪ (children playing) ♪ (music building) experience the power of sanctuary
6:55 pm
6:58 pm
6:59 pm
kudos to all of the police, including bernie kerik's son. >> indeed, sean. during the journey know my jersey city crime, they could not pinpoint the motive, then they got surveillance video showing how methodical this crime was. the suspect, 47-year-old david anderson, who had links to the anti-semitic black hebrew israelites, and his ex-girlfriend, a 50 francine graham, had just killed a police detective at a nearby cemetery when they calmly drove a u-haul to a nea nearby kosher market, then they got out, grabbed a rifle, at ignoring people on the street, he walked toward the market and opened fire as he entered the store. his accomplice had also grabbed a rifle and followed him inside. police say once inside, they shot and killed three people. after an hour long standoff with themselves shot by police. thnew jersey attorney general ad others were hesitant to call it a crime.
7:00 pm
the new jersey mayor said it was impossible to draw any other conclusion. >> sean: isn't that the same group, nicholas sandmann, black hebrew israelites? if i recall right? let not your heart be troubled, we are not the hate-trump media. laura ingraham, i got to see you along with tucker earlier this evening. you are funny. >> laura: hannity, i can't believe first of all three of us were together. how often are we all three of the same room? >> sean: i don't think it is ever happened. >> laura: once or twice, righ right? >> sean: i'm sure we will do election coverage for the channel. >> laura: okay, al all right. [laughs] yeah, together. >> sean: you two always get in trouble. >> laura: exactly, but hannity, we were doing some photos for a bunch of occasions, but i kept saying, this is going to be a heatseeking missile for pelosi, nadler, and schiff, coming right down on the studio. >> sean: just put in
