the ones you love. we'll tell you once again sunday night at 9:00 p.m., commercial free concert here on all fox stations. have the best evening. see you tomorrow. sean hannity right now. >> sean: great show. welcome to "hannity." critical multitrillion dollar stimulus package installed on the u.s. senate. we have no idea when a vote will take place. they are or in the house either. you know, in a time of great urgency for the entire country, we have seen, let's start with the best in people. look at all these businesses. take a look at the screen. all of them on your screen have stepped up, huge, massive, incredible heroic ways to help their fellow americans. producing ventilators and masks. the medical equipment that is needed for the best doctors, best nurses, best medical professionals in the entire world that are on the front lines helping americans that are sick, putting themselves in harm's way. we cannot thank them enough for their service and their courage. these companies have all stepped

up. this president and his task force, they are making literally life-saving choices now. rewriting the book so that it will forever transform how we deal with future pandemics. travetravel bans, quarantines, public-private partnerships, drive-thru testing, soon we will have home testing. telemedicine, all of it is the future. off label use and elimination of two ghanaian rules by the fda for compassionate use, the right to try, why not? vaccine trials in record time. make no mistake. you are watching history unfold. this is transformational, lives will be saved and lives are changing. but in the midst of tragedy and triumph two ghanaian rules by the fda and amazing achievements, look at the travel ban. let's start. thousands and thousands of americans from contracting the virus, save them. bought us valuable time and save lives. this is america at its finest.

all of these things to protect and save lives for the american people. the president of the united states, let me say, he is now, he's been waiting for a week for a bell. what we've been watching last weekend all this week in the washington swamp, that is america at its worst in d.c. unfortunately during tough times, we do see people at their worst. we see people price gouging for needed supplies, medical supplies, masks. then you see the orders and people fighting over toilet paper. it's insane. thankfully that is not the majority of the american people. the swamp is beyond repulsive. just as they have for three long plus years, radical socialist democrats, do-nothing democrats, they are hurting the country. we have watched day after day after day democratic socialist literally exploiting a national emergency. they have been holding back what is desperately needed money for

american workers, american small businesses. big industries that have been basically shut down as a result of this virus. so they can jam down the throats of you the american people what is there a disastrous socialist agenda and of course part of the insane green new deal. they have held desperately needed relief money hostage. i sauce susan collins of maine, literally where is your urgency? i have never, ever in my life seen mitch mcconnell that angry either. american workers, they needed help last week. they need help now. small businesses need help now. big businesses, wiped out by the coronavirus, they need help now so they can help their employees now. they needed that last week. here we are a week later still dealing with democratic b.s. what is this about? they have been literally treating this emergency stimulus plan like a cookie jar. they are price gouging you, the

american people. i warned you this was coming. they needed to pass a clean coronavirus relief bill. why waste a good crisis, right, rahm emanuel? to do the things you know you would never otherwise get done. yeah, pelosi. bipartisan plan over what? a green new deal? and carbon footprints and their wish list of unrelated demands, tax credits for windmills and solar panels and new environmental regulations for the airlines. yeah, as if they are not suffering and after let's take them in the head while they are down on the ground bleeding profusely and they have been devastated. then they add projections. glad to bring in the illegal immigrant issue. got to give new powers to union bosses and on and on. as it stands now, only some of the democratic pork has made it into this bill but a tentative democratic price gouging remains. look at this. at $150 million for the national endowment for the arts and the endowment for the humanities.

oh, now, they wanted 600 million originally. that's what they were fighting for. that's what the delay has been about. there's also a photo, $50 million for the institute of museum and library services. okay if we need money to help their employees, that's separate and apart. that's not what this is about. 75 million for the corporation for public broadcasting. 75 million for pbs, oh, and i think mpr is included. npr, one of their stations announced they weren't going to take the daily briefings but they get 75 million bucks. the cherry on top of the wish list, 25 million for the kennedy performing arts center. protect the employees if they are out of work. this money, total b.s. see what's happening here? you are watching the exploitation by the democrats holding americans in need hostage over this garbage. all in order to get a big payday for their close friends and union buddies.

they know republicans. they have a sense of urgency. they are the adults in the room. they have been saying we need to get this help to the american worker. businesses that are in trouble. the democrats literally taking advantage of what is an all hands on deck moment. now if you are i ever did this we might even be arrested for theft or looting or price gouging. probably locked up and charged with larceny. not if you're a democratic member of the u.s. congress. guess what. it gets worse. the bill is currently stalled. why? because of a provision that would actually pay workers in many instances more money than they would otherwise make on their jobs if they go on unemployment. in other words, more money, unemployed than if they were employed as they currently have been. an idiotic idea. every reasonable american understands we need to help our fellow americans. how about we just keep them hole? whatever you have been making, you're out of work, through no fault of your own, we will

continue to make sure you make that amount of money. that amount of money should pay her mortgage, rent, car payment, food, groceries, pharmacy. this is not good for the american economy. it's not fair to the american taxpayers who are all in. america is willing to help out their fellow americans. make them whole during this brief period of time. those that deserve the help deserve help, period. no bolshevik bernie sanders for me to stop the whole bill if this language is removed. more delays for those people that have been waiting and waiting and waiting and desperately deserve our help. so let's be clear. here's what the democrats have been blocking. they've been blocking a relief bill for american workers. pbs, npr? the kennedy performing arts center? so they can get big payday and bolshevik bernie and get his socialist wish list completed. $1200 direct. this is important.

direct payments to americans. business loans. 500 billion for distressed companies. another 150 billion for hospitals and health care workers. they are all waiting. this could have and should have been passed a week ago and as we speak, the president is ready to sign the bill immediately. he has been for days. the president doesn't write the bills in congress. in fairness to him, he spent a little bit busy trying to save the lives of the american people and all hands on deck health pandemic. he's done more than any other president in history to save lives during a pandemic. nobody has ever responded this way in the history of this country. make no mistake. this is even a new low for the swamp in d.c., in the democratic party. it just reeks of swamp corruption. they should not be ashamed of themselves. they won't beat. they will be patting themselves on the back, telling tibbett how great they are. they are not. with these radical socialists are doing is beyond the pale.

frankly tonight what you been watching and we are still watching is a national disgrace. it's unforgivable. if you are sitting home tonight worried about how you're going to pay your rent, your mortgage, put food on the table, pay her car loan, just know that the democratic party cares more about npr, pbs, the national endowment for the arts and theyt than any of you. otherwise your money by now. this bill will pass. i guess ultimately. the republicans trying to get the money to workers. they have to give this garbage to the democrats. so american workers and small business, large businesses can get the aid we have been desperately wanting to give to them. mark my words. mark my words tonight. this president we are setting, will pay a huge price down the line. here with the latest from capitol hill, the hitchhikers guide to all things d.c. swamp, chad pergram.

busy day. >> busy day. some good news, looks like they're getting very close to getting an agreement to vote on this bill tonight. they have forged this deal around 1:00 early this morning. they are just circulating the final bill text. 883 pages. here's what we expect over the next two to three hours. they are going to have 30 minutes of debate, and then two votes. one is going to be a vote on the movement offered by republican, maresca senator ben sasse in reference to the provision in the bill which a lot of republicans don't like what they say if you're on unemployment yu could penitential he earned more than you are on the job. they will subjected to a 60 vote threshold. it will not pass. that would be part of the belleville negative final passage. they have to lock in the final agreement in the next two to three hours. then they go to the house of representatives. we don't even expect that the house will consider this tomorrow night.

why? steny hoyer the house majority leader indicated that he was going to stick to his commitment to give members 24 hours to return. kevin mccarthy, the house minority leader, he was critical of the hold up in the senate but he also said that he thinks there should be at least a day for the house of representatives to consider this. this is counterintuitive. what that does is it gives the democratic caucus and the republican conference in the house time to walk their members through their piece of legislation and get universal buy-in. we might not get this bill passed amounts of representative's until friday. here is something important. the reason this is going to pass in the senate probably with an overwhelming vote tonight, it's very reflective of the cereal commercial you used to see in the 1970s with mikey. and of the kids would touch the cereal until mikey ate it and then they all ate it. here is the same deal. once the senate passes this bill overwhelmingly they will probably pick up support in the house of representatives. we think they will probably have

a voice vote. they are not going to take a roll call vote when they bring all 430 members into the house chamber a hygiene. kevin mccarthy and house speaker nancy pelosi are for that. one is a voice vote. they get a small contingent of those opposed and those for the bill. those in favor shout aye and those opposed shout nay and though largest side wins. if 1 of 3 modes of voting in the house of representatives in the senate but what's unique is they might do it that way until that's more than $2 trillion. >> sean: a delayed vote for the aid to the american people. republicans as we are wasting hardworking taxpayer dollars for giveaways. they say i can vote for it. the campaign at this november will be "so-and-so did not support america when it was needed." meanwhile, so you've got a gun to your head basically politically.

>> there won't be a recorder vote. for both campaign committees. they won't be able to say on such a such a roll call vote using the tiny script on the bottom of the screen, roll call vote whatever the number is. there won't be that because it will be a voice vote. he will give some of those members were opposed political air cover to say i have posted. it was too fast, too big. but again, there's going to be overwhelming support in both the house and senate for this later tonight and the house probably late tonight or tomorrow or friday. >> sean: won't get away with not answering, how did you vote. they won't get away with saying i don't know. chad, thank you. always informative. this pandemic is part of the very best. sadly the very worst among the minority, especially the swamp. let me give you some more good news. thanks to the new public-private partnerships, 432,000 americans a been tested for coronavirus. more than any other country by far in the world. tonight apple, they announced they would be donating 10 million tasks to u.s. hospitals.

apple, thank you. by the way, i have my iphone right here. this comes as ford is helping 3m ramp up production of ventilators and other products, using their f-150 line, just like gm is doing the same. doctors, scientists, pharmaceutical companies, all of them of been working around the clock, new treatments and we are in stage one trials for a vaccine. great news is all around us. in the near future, this country, we will have the grip on this deadly disease. yeah, life will play will get back to normal sooner than later. back to the worst. then you have the media mob. they are basically an extension of all things radical socialist democrats. they still only care a lot about smearing the president just as they have for three plus years. the latest line of attack is that the president cares more about the economy than the lives of americans. earlier today here's how the president responded. >> i think there are certain people who would like to do financially poorly because that you think would be very good as far as defeating me at the pol

polls. i don't know if that so but i do think it so that there are people in your profession that would like that to happen. i think it's really clear. i think it's very clear there are people in your profession that right fake news. you do. she does. there are people in your profession that right fake news. they would love to see me, for whatever reason, because we've done one hell of a job. nobody's on the job we've done. in his luckily you have this group here right now for this problem. you wouldn't even have a country left. >> sean: we need to keep america working as much as we can. that's a fact. where are we going to get the pharmaceuticals firm? groceries. where are we going to get all the medical supplies from? think about that. if the mob and the media want to cast blame, well, maybe they should begin to look inward and how they've been covering this pandemic oh, early on. let's take a trip down memory lane.

the president was taking emergency action. travel ban. ten days after the firm confirmed -- first confirmed case in the united states. joe biden and the mob in the media were saying president was fearmongering, they called it unnecessary. stigmatizing. the very same day, january 31, let's look, vox.com, not a fan of sean hannity or fox news. is going to be a deadly pandemic? no. february 1, oh, let's look at "the washington post." they hate trump and sean hannity too. get a grip, and america. the flu is a much bigger threat than the coronavirus for now. february 3, also "washington post." why we should be wary of an aggressive government response to coronavirus. even on february 5, oh, "the new york times" is the newspaper that said let's call it the trump virus. if you're feeling awful, blame trump. they are the ones who said president trump to governors, you're on your own.

they edited out, we will have your back. by the way, they say well, it's not safe to travel to china. the coronavirus travel ban is unjust. "the new york times" editorial board, well, now they are panicking calling for all americans to shelter in place. many fake news reporters apparently want to self quarantine forever. facing the economy back into action is akin to mass murder. buzzfeed is writing donald trump's trying to figure out how many americans he needs to sacrifice to keep the economy going. the very same mob that lied about hillary clinton protecting her, that's right, the email server and oh, yeah, the obstruction, bleach bit. lied about the russian dossier, kavanaugh, the impeachment scam, good news is, very rich kid, not a public figure, he's going to own them. he's going to be a billionaire. when lives are on the line, businesses are on the line, they

are lying about a deadly infectious disease. they got it wrong from day one. on this coming up here by the way on my website you can see where our coverage was. january 27th, i had anthony fauci number 20, i was talking about this scares me because people that are a systematic and apparently maybe airborne. i said that on january 27th. it's on my website. joining us with more on the stimulus package, south carolina senator lindsey graham. senator, i predicted this wouldn't be a clean bill. here is your choice. you are up for reelection. you go along. people in south carolina, is it true they may get paid more for not working? >> in my wildest dreams i would never believe we would pass a bill that would give you a pay raise if you got unemployed. i want people to get their income while they are unemployed but i don't want to increase their wages because you incentivize people to leave their job. in this bill, you will have 50%

to 150% pay raises to people if they leave the workforce. good luck with amazon hiring 100,00100,000 people because unemployed benefits in south carolina equal $23 an hour. i'm really going to hire people in south carolina when you're competing with government wages at $23 an hour? there's a lot of good in this bill. i'm going to vote for it. there are medical supplies that nurses and doctors and hospitals need. steven mnuchin has done a good job very much trying to keep the democrats from putting their green new deal in the bill but here's what we've done. in the name of doing good, we are going to make it hard for the next four months for employers to find workers and we're going to incentivize people to leave the workforce because for the first time in my lifetime, america will pay you more not to work then work. >> sean: basically we've been waiting a week. they've been forcing this into this bill, the democratic socialist radical party. can't pass a clean bill and now

you're left with the choice. americans are desperate. our health industry is desperate. you either eat it or they have to wait even longer. not a very good choice in my opinion, senator. >> that's what we want to change. we want washington. i can tolerate some bad to do some good. i have made deals. i know what it's like to negotiate with the other side. but really do we need to be giving pbs more money now and people are dying? the kennedy center may be an amazing place to go, i'm sure it is. $25 million is a lot of money to the average american. what i'm talking about is bernie is threatening to hold up the whole bill because he doesn't want ben sasse, lindsey graham, rick scott to have a vote to save your unemployed you can get your ranges but you can get a pay raise. in bernie's world, he wants you to get more money by being unemployed then if you worked. most americans like the dignity of work and i want to help them. most republicans believe we

should help you, not give you a pay raise if your unemployed. a lot of people are going to leave the workforce because this bill has created an incentive for you to be unemployed. stress backwards. it's going to hurt the economy. >> sean: i'm with you. i think americans through no fault of their own, they need to be made whole. we have to help. small business, big business, health care front-line workers, they need the protection. they are risking their lives every day. they need it and they been waiting and waiting. >> i want to apologize to the american people. we are better than this. >> sean: no, you're not. you are. they are not. no apologies. you can't apologize for what they've done in the last week. no apologies for that. speak with the president has done a heck of a job making a safe, trying to save the economy. stephen lujan has worked his

>> pelosi screw this up. she and students -- she insisted on the liberal agenda, the mob agenda. she's holding the whole country hostage. never thought i would live long enough to see and on the plumbing program to a more than working. if you're making $15 an hour in south carolina working your butt, we are going to pay $23 an hour to be unemployed. that's not fair. that's not right. >> sean: all right, senator. i wonder if nancy pelosi flew in her private jet. just wondering. on the phone with more on this massive stimulus package. treasury secretary steve mnuchin is with us. mr. secretary, thank you for being with us. as the senator just that, i'm all in favor, i want every american made whole. through no fault of their own they have been hurt. we have to help small businesses, cruise industry, airline industry any other industry, god help the

medical workers. ramp up the medicines and everything for the hospitals. this other crap, why is it in here? >> sean, it's great to be with you. the president's number one issue was to make sure that we protect the american workers and american business. no fault of their own. we have shut down major parts of the economy. and he wants to make sure not only do we protect them but the economy is ready when he's ready to open the country. as you said, in any deal to get a deal done, there's things we like a lot. there's things we would never put in on our own. i want to highlight small business programs, hope to get it up and running next week literally were small business can go in and get a loan immediately. it covers eight weeks of their employees, their incentive to keep their employees. their loan is forgiven if they keep their employees. that covers about 50% of the workforce. for the president, making sure that we have small businesses retain their workers were no

fault of their own we have shut them down and they have no business. we also have economic income payments. we have a great program between the treasury and federal reserve where we can inject up to $4 trillion liquidity to help businesses. we can build a small business lending program. the president is determined to make sure we protect this economy. >> sean: it's my understanding, mr. secretary, that you guys had a deal. and that nancy pelosi came in and income, basically aoc's new green deal demand, can you bring us behind the scenes and tell us if it's true. >> sean, as you know, there were a lot of things that the speaker wanted in the deal that we shut down immediately. >> sean: didn't we have a deal by the weekend? supposed to have a deal. what stopped it? >> there's never a deal until it's done. we were negotiating through the whole period. we took out anything having to do with wind and the

environmental issues. the president got lots and lots of things out of the deal. as you said, i like the kennedy center. i don't know why we needed to put that in the coronavirus bill. and public broadcasting. these aren't coronavirus. fortunately the president not a lot of money for hospitals. the number one way we're going to beat this disease is to kill it. this is overall a great deal for the president because we can protect u.s. workers and the u.s. economy. >> sean: okay. i would like to know this. i think this is really important. how quickly and this is important for every american suffering tonight. how quickly are we going to get this in the hands of workers, small businesses, big businesses. how quickly can you do it? >> really fast these having money three or four months from now doesn't do anybody any good. so i can tell you we are going to operate at lightning speed. although we are using the sba,

this is a new program. isn't the typical sba program. i have the authority to right regulations, any fdic insured bank, you can go in and literally i hope to have this by next friday, show them your payroll, get the money instantaneously. regards to the payments going to hardworking americans, we expect the irs will do direct deposit in the next three weeks. >> sean: let me ask. lindsey graham makes a good point. i -- i don't know if you'd know that i do a three hour radio show every day. >> of course i do. >> sean: i can tell you the american people have been very clear. they understand, their fellow americans in need, they want them to be made whole. in other words, get your salary, pay her rent and mortgage in your car payment and get your groceries and get your medicine, whatever you need. life stays normal. through no fault of your own this interim period. this idea that you're going to

make more money unemployed, that anger is my audience. it angers me. why couldn't somebody just show a paystub and that's the money you're going to get? >> sean, you're right. it angers me too. the problem is states have computer systems and unemployment that's 35 years old. we need to get the money out fast. the simplest way in the fairest way was $600 per person in certain states that may be a little bit too much money. in other states is less. it's not a perfect system but the president's objective was to make sure you get money in people's hands. as i said, waiting four month to system, that doesn't do us any good. lindsay is perfectly right. i know he's talking about in the ideal world we would correct this. our focus was delivering money quickly to the american public. >> sean: i understand, i read a lot about you.

apparently her very successful businessman. in businesses i understand there's negotiation but in this case what makes this particularly, you know, sinister to me, is there leveraging the help but americans need in a time of an emergency, crisis and pandemic. they are willing to let those americans suffer and wait so they can get all of this crap for the national endowment for the arts and the kennedy center, all of this other garbage. has that ever happened to you in business? usually when i do business deals it's got to be win and win. that is not win-win. >> and i do business deals it's win and win that we needed bipartisan support and there was a price to pay. i agree that i would rather be sending that money to hospitals then sending it to the kennedy center. nothing against the kennedy center. this is about the coronavirus. speed of the president said that today. i'm sure it's nice but i've been busy. never seen it. i wouldn't written it in.

he's right. last question. this money is going to get to the american people soon, as quickly as possible. you're going to be telling people how to go about this process so that there will be details, website. how is everyone going to learn as quickly as possible what to do? >> we are going to have a very simple system. beginning to write and put out press releases. very simple. go into a bank, get a loan instantaneously. it covers your payroll. you hire people and it's forgiven. sean, the good news is the president can't -- the president told us to think big and we did. he wants to spend whatever it takes to protect american workers. not only do we have $2 trillion that we are pumping into the economy but if we need more with the fed, we can lever it up for another 4 trillion. that's a war chest to make sure the president can protect american workers. >> sean: he's been busy literally rewriting the books on how every future pandemic will be dealt with.

mr. secretary, we appreciate you taking the time to be with us tonight. thank you. also today secretary of state mike pompeo said china is still withholding critical information about covid-19. senator tom cotton, representative mike gallagher, proposing a plan to end america's dependence on china for pharmaceuticals. good idea and a canon soon enough. china has proven to be so treacherous an enemy. two people that have been warning us the most on the top of the list would be donald trump. he's been warning us for years. also newt gingrich wrote a pretty good book about it. he's taken pages from russia's disinformation playbook. look at axios. amazing piece. joining us now with more reaction, senator tom cotton. the president dealt with this. the president has been trying to eliminate all the burdensome regulation. obama told us, biden told us those jobs, they are never coming back i in in a manufactu. coming back in numbers we never dreamed of. we are having pharmaceuticals,

medical supplies and we depend on china for that and they won't even give us information after they created a bigger part of this crisis, not the virus. they didn't tell lies. they lied to us. >> the chinese communist party displayed to the world will could've been a local health problem into a global pandemic. that's exactly what the chinese communist party has always done. it's dishonest. it's corrupt. and it's an enemy of the united states. it's one thing to have jobs that make lawn chairs or toy trinkets in china. it's nothing to make basic pharmaceuticals that we need like antibiotics or penicillin. ibuprofen, advil. it's crazy that we are dependent upon china, a country that at this very moment is still threatening to withhold those critical medical supplies from the united states. that's why it has to end and we

have to bring the pharmaceutical manufacturing capability back to the united states. >> sean: how is it possible -- again, instead of seeking the world help which would have been forthcoming, secretary pompeo told me on this show we are even willing to help iran to save the health of other people in the world. pretty decent of the united states but that kind of defines who we are. so now they are not only lying that we created a virus or our army did which is ridiculous, but now how do they get away with withholding that critical information? >> it's very simple, sean. we are making all of these pharmaceuticals and all the supplies in the chinese mainland and it's a communist state and they control everything that happens there. so even though those products were owned by american companies, companies from our allies, the chinese communist party doesn't wanted to get outside the chinese mainland, it won't. that's why the situation has to

change fast. >> sean: are you going to vote for this bill? >> i'm going to vote for the bill tonight vincent provides desperately needed aid to doctors and nurses on the front lines. running low on personal protective equipment, patience who need more ventilators, care capabilities. it's going to get money into the hands of distressed moms and dads who've lost their jobs or worry about losing hours they could put food on the table for the kids and it's going to give incentives to businesses, every kind of business. >> sean: so you do agree with mia, the garbage in this bill. >> it's very disappointing the way nancy pelosi parachuted in on sunday. >> sean: and schumer. >> we had productive discussions with lots of senate democrats. the air we could've past sunday afternoon would've been a great bell for the american people. as it stands now we are probably going to end up losing a week's worth of time on getting help to the people that need it. we do the national down for the outsider trickle arts are way more important. thank you. joining us now, peter navarro.

let's talk about the bill. we talked to steve mnuchin. tell us in in your words, a lot of crap. how a government is unconscionable. why the american workers had to wait for this coverage. your thoughts. >> i have been watching this with great dismay. my job here at the white house really is making sure that americans at the front lines get all the protective gear they need. my lane in this whole thing is the supply chain. with the leadership of president trump, the full force of the federal government and the full power of private enterprise, what i have been trying to do his work with companies around this country to get places like new york city, getting gloves and goggles on ventilators. i am focused on that. every time i look over and see nancy pelosi doing stuff like she just add, it does turn my stomach.

this is a time that tries our souls. the president is doing a beautiful job and for this to be politicized, that's just wrong. my focus, sean, is making sure that at the front lines on behalf of the president, our health workers are protected so we can beat the virus. >> sean: what about the pharmaceutical supplies and medical supplies that we get from china? is that going to be disrupted in any way and how quickly can we produce these things in america? >> so glad you raised it. i'm working with an executive order with the president to get our supplies back, our pharmaceuticals back. we have 20 companies, sean, that provide us -- excuse me, 20 countries that provide us $120 billion worth of pharmaceuticals every year. ten of them have already imposed export restrictions, including china. china is the worst. there's others. we need to buy american, sean,

for our pharmaceutical industry. the president is going to get that done. >> sean: peter navarro, great job. thank you. appreciate you being here. when we come back on the clinical trials underway. medical experts working to determine which drugs are best at treating people with this virus. how can we save lives? dr. oz is back. he's been doing amazing work. straight ahead. but think of a "protect your family as it grows" company. a "put enough away for college" company. and a "take care of your employees" company. we're a "help you ride the ups and downs of the market" company. and when it's time to retire, we're a "we've been guiding you toward this all along" company. think of us as all these companies, and more. principal. retirement. investments. insurance.

i was told to begin my aspirin regimen, blem. and i just didn't listen. until i almost lost my life. my doctors again ordered me to take aspirin, and i do. be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. listen to the doctor. take it seriously. >> sean: america's great scientists, medical experts, doctors and nurses and professionals working around the clock to find a treatment that will stop coronavirus. currently over 100 drugs in development. a vaccine and development. as the state of new york continues to see an increase in cases of covid-19, we know clinical trials began this week.

for experiment of drug treatment that's underway. joining us mountain update, he's been doing some of the greatest work, the great dr. oz is back with us. talk about hydroxychloroquine. your show, must watch tv. you're interviewing patients and doctors. talking to people all around the world. you've looked look to for studies. what are you seeing it and how confident are you in the anecdotal evidence? we can't have a clinical trial except in real time. but this is working for those people that are using it. >> as a governor told me yesterday on the show, when you march into battle, you march with the army you have. it's what we have to go with. i've kicked the tires. i've interviewed the physician who did the french study. i spoke to colleagues of mine in china about what they are doing and they do have clinical trials. they have a big experience with coronavirus.

these are anecdotal reports but there is meaningful -- they seem to add up to the general idea that if you give hydroxychloroquine early in the course of an illness, it seems to have an impact. we don't know for sure until we do the double-blind study. it's interestingly in new york this studies starting. the governor just today said you're not allowed to get the drug unless either you have an existing condition that the fda approves all ready for it. for example, rheumatoid arthritis or malaria, or if you're part of a clinical trial. it's a way to push people into clinical trials. the other idea is the plasma idea. behind c should know, -- behind the scenes, hannity me with papers. spanish influenza, the one treatment, they would take blood from people who survived and give it to people were dying and

it seemed to work. we are doing that now, started in new york. taking blood from survivors, taking out the antibodies. infusing it into people who are really ill. it gets compassionate use. the ideas if you survive, or antibodies are the right ones, if you put them in somewhat unable to make their own, you might stop the virus dead in its tracks. that's trickle speech that is convalescent plasma. blue-eyed corona and built up antibodies and they recovered. you remove the plasma and infuse it and people that are very sick and the antibodies i've read again, anecdotally and i'm not a doctor. you are the professional. we have seen cases where people recover very quickly in some cases. correct? >> the chinese also tried this and as you point out, they had remarkable results. it's a clunky, cumbersome way of helping people because you've got to get someone who has convalesced. the idea, it's remarkable how

many drugs and ideas are in trial form. you get goose bumps thinking about the ingenuity of the american medical field, the scientist. for the virus to hurt you, a process to get into you. that's where the chloroquine stopped the virus down. there's a trial with a blood pressure drug that blocks one of the receptors that might be used for the virus to get in your body and then there's a problem that when the virus gets into ascot to replicate. the virus cannot live outside of you. it's not a -- it gets in there with the blueprint tenant hijacks yourself and use these different chemical compounds, drugs that we develop for ebola and hiv, they block that replication process. if you half of virus propagating, you can create an inflammatory reaction you can stop it with another set of drugs. everywhere along the process we can take sniper shots an at how

this virus takes over your body. >> sean: all the doctors and patients you have spoken to, those who have tried hydroxychloroquine, have you seen side effects were instances where it's not worked? >> people who didn't work for probably wouldn't call me. of the side effects, no one has combined about anything meaningful and the people i've spoken to so far failed to my developed a little bit or it definitely helped a lot. that's where we live. the good news is in new york we are going to figure it out because there are critical trials ongoing. >> sean: we might be getting data as early as next week. has any doctor told you it didn't work on their patient? >> no, every doctor. the data comes next week. >> sean: you doing amazing work. i know people that i know that you've helped out of the goodness of your heart. we appreciate all you do. i know that you're calling in life. thank you, doctor.

when we come back, joe biden, wow. disastrous week gets worse. you won't believe what he said today. very disturbing and later, mandy new jersey charged with making terroristic threats, coughing on a grocery store employee, saying he has coronavirus. what is wrong with some people? you see the best and you see the worst in people. ttstraight ahead. that fuel 5 indicators of brain performance. memory, focus, accuracy, learning, and concentration. try neuriva for 30 days and see the difference.

we were paying an arm and a leg for postage. i remember setting up shipstation. one or two clicks and everything was up and running. i was printing out labels and saving money. shipstation saves us so much time. it makes it really easy and seamless. pick an order, print everything you need, slap the label onto the box, and it's ready to go. our costs for shipping were cut in half. just like that. shipstation. the #1 choice of online sellers. go to shipstation.com/try and get 2 months free. >> sean: after a round of disastrous interviews yesterday, joe biden held an online press briefing from the basement of his delaware home. admitted that the democrats were going to use this to get money for the green new deal.

take a look. >> we are going to have an opportunity the next round to use my green deal to be able to generate both economic growth and consistent with the kind of infusion of money we need into the system to keep it going. >> sean: never ending disaster. anyway, meanwhile, biden's never-ending troubles are driving the party into a panic you're the only thing worse for the democrats than biden going into hiding as when he actually appears in public and makes incoherent gaffes every day. here to react, fox news contributor, former arkansas governor mike huckabee. congressman mike gates. i don't want to say. >> you don't have to because joe biden is saying it for you. the man is, as you say, incoherent. what this does more than anything as it points out why we cannot let the democrats get elected. not only to the white house but

we've got to get back the house and build our numbers in the senate because we see that while the president is like a fireman out there putting out the fires in the front of stores, you've got pelosi and schumer and people under the guise of biden that are looting the stores from the back and taking everything that's not nailed down and everything they can get away with. that's why this is such a stark reminder to the american people that the democrats are not looking after their interests. they are just looking after political power. this is no time for that. >> sean: congressman gaetz, i'm like, really? now a lot of people looking at governor cuomo. by the way governor cuomo's political views are disaster for the country. just telling everybody. he wants to blame the president. the president is building more hospitals, sending a navy ship hospital, sending thousands of ventilators. and then he just "i need 100,000." okay. why didn't he do it?

no state seemed prepared for anything. no local municipality seemed ready. hospitals don't even have a day's worth of emergency anything it seems. >> president trump on the task force have been very helpful to our efforts here in florida and while president trump leads our country with conviction, you see joe biden seizing up like he's the tin man when his teleprompter freezes. we don't need mr. magoo the joe biden promises. to governor huckabee's point about democrats trying to seize power, senator graham works to fix the on employment problems, i hope he'll try to take out the $350 million for migrant and re-settlement for refugees in our country. why in the world do we have $315 million from migrants and refugees before we restore the economic condition of every american in our country and all by the way, sean, no money for border patrol and i.c.e. in this bill but you see the democrats, as governor huckabee said, doing

everything they can to socially engineer through a crisis. >> sean: thank you both. you've been amazing, both of you and your commentary. helping the country. the best in america. when we come back, the worst. police had to arrest a guy in new jersey coughing on a grocery store employee saying he has coronavirus. and a programming announcement. and delivery servicing. we'll pick up your vehicle and leave you with a lincoln loaner. that's the power of sanctuary. you ever wish you weren't a motaur? sure. sometimes i wish i had legs like you. yeah, like a regular person. no. still half bike/half man, just the opposite.

>> sean: two men arrested and charged with making terroristic threats for allegedly trying to spread the coronavirus to othe others. trace gallagher has that report. apparently kathy griffin tested positive but she is blaming donald trump. i'm not going there. i hope she gets better soon. trace. >> this is just a sampling of what's happening across the country. a 50-year-old man was at a wegmans food market in new jersey, an employee was concerned the man was too close to her at some of the prepared food so she asked him to step back. instead, she says he came forward, purposely coughed and then left. saying he had coronavirus. the man then reportedly told two

other employees they were lucky to have jobs, so security guards and approached the man, but he refused to cooperate, so he's not being charged with making terroristic threats and obstructing law enforcement. meantime, 26-year-old missouri man posted video of himself on social media. as you see right there, looking items at walmart and as he licked he said "who's afraid of coronavirus"? when nearby residents complain to the man was arrested and charged with terrorist threats. complex by the way also came in from as far away as ireland and the netherlands and we should note these are happening all across the country. some of them are prosecuted, some of them are ignored, but it's a daily occurrence in the united states, since the coronavirus pandemic broke out. >> sean: she thinks she has it, hasn't had a test, still blaming from, says she feels terrible. i hope everybody that might have it, think they have it that they all get well. that's why all these medical

doctors are working so hard. thank you. before we go, tomorrow night, exclusive interview with the president. it will be on this program. hope you set your dvr, that's not quite eastern. also, sunday night, fox and i heart teamed up for life conference playing on all foxfire forms. laura ingraham, hi. >> laura: hey, hannity, awesome, and i can't wait by the wait to see -- are you going to be with the president but 6 feet away? are you going to be on the phone, how are you going to do that? >> sean: it's a secret and i don't reveal secrets. you'll have to tune in. listen, in all seriousness i know everybody's nervous. the one thing we got to remember is most people, the vast majority 98.9% get well. but we are trying to save the 1%. the president asked today, how many dots are except a ball said none. >> laura: it's zero. the demonization of him is not work -- it's not working, we know that, we are jammed up tonight, we got the surgeon general tonight.
