on for the football season. >> sean: medical advice most people would support. why don't you call it of black lives matter rally and just let it roll? by the way, dave portnoy comes tomorrow to respond to this pair the great sean hannity right now. >> sean: thank you. and how about everybody wears a ma and everybody -- maybe we asked the older people to sit it out and let the american people choose for themselves? i believe in freedom and i know you do too. just call it a rally and let's just do it. you don't want to go, don't go. i'm going, i'll wear the mask for the sake of others. welcome to hannity. tonight, so much breaking news we will be covering throughout the entire hour tonight. now both officers are charged in the rayshard brooks killing in atlanta. they have now also surrendered and we have key details surrounding the arrest that you

didn't hear from the district attorney yesterday. keep in mind, you can't indict a ham sandwich but the high bar will be 12 people on a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. a lot of developments. but first, i want is all to step back as a country. we need to step back and take a collective deep breath and understand this moment and realize this country is at a tipping point. is dangerous. we are at a point where we will either go the way of law and order, peace, prosperity, one american family in the way of safety on the way of security, or we will go down the road of liberal lawlessness and total anarchy. because the sweeping broad and in many cases false generalizations of groups of people, and let's be honest, outright lies at times that we are seeing officers against those that stand in the way of

chaos and even the safety of your family, this nonstop rush to judgment is intensifying all around the country especially in big cities by the hour. this madness to defund, dismantle, destroy police departments is now a clear and present danger to the entire country. we will have more details later has dan hettinger pointed out in "the wall street journal," they won't be fleeing big cities in droves. police across the country now are under attack. is unfair, it is sick, and it is twisted. not all cops are bad. 99%, as a matter of fact, our heroes. look at the city of atlanta were just last night it appears we are now seeing the beginning -- it actually has a name, a lot of police are calling in sick, blue flu. large numbers of officers calling in sick basically saying you know what? enough is enough following the charges in the brooks case, the officers have lost faith in their leadership, lost faith in

their ability to actually be able to perform their jobs to the best of their ability. this even acknowledged by the atlanta mayor despite democrat, even she is admitting morale is down tenfold. here is a question, do you blame them? take a look. >> across the country, morale is down with police departments and i think ours is down tenfold. this has been a very tough few weeks in atlanta. >> sean: according to a new report from "the new york post" tonight, nypd officers in new york city are being encouraged to strike on the fourth of july although a department spokesman is denying that strike will the current, really? can you guarantee that? because of that happens, not just in new york city but cities across the country, i promise you that will not end well for we the people. is now becoming untenable for the good police officers to do their jobs and do it safely with the support of the community and

those politicians. is disgraceful, unfair, unjust, and it is happening. they rush to judgment, broad sweeping generalizations, they are all racist as we have been reporting, by the way. so many major cities that we talk about happen to have a majority of minorities on the job. in other words, the majority of minority police officers and while i don't necessarily endorse the idea of the blue flu because of what could potentially happen, we have to ask ourselves, put yourself in their shoes, how would you be feeling today? in other words, would you like being called a racist or thought of as a racist or as we have seen in new york, have buckets of water poured on your car and it be assaulted and not have a mayor that supports you and then have politicians, forgetful joe and comrade de blasio, how do you think those officers that aren't racist that put their

lives on the line for us every single day and night, how do you think they feel? given the circumstances. given the fact that liberal cities like we've been talking about are surrendering to far left lawlessness and anarchy making it harder and harder, if not impossible now for police officers to do their jobs. earlier today, the new york police union chief pat lynch told fox news "you are seeing these messages from new york city police officers because they now have reached the breaking point. pay close attention. they are communicating something very loudly to be the people. over the past few weeks, we have been attacked in the streets, demonized in the media, denigrated by practically every politician in the city and state. some police officers as a result of the violent rioters, not the peaceful protesters, but some of them are not. a lot of them are not. the 800 plus injured, rocks,

bricks, molotov cocktails. but we are seeing playing out across the country with these officers being attacked, runover, shot, targeted, is unacceptable. and they will begin to leave droves and frankly, ask yourself, can you blame them? 800 officers injured. rocks, bricks, bottles, molotov cocktails. others have died and some are paralyzed from the neck down. should disturb every good decent american that believes in law and order. ask yourself again, what do you think your community wherever you happen to be tonight will look like if these far left leaders get their way? what is going to happen in these police officers say we are retiring, thanks but no thanks? again, i asked the question, who are you going to call when it is ten, 11, 12:00 at night and somebody is breaking into your house to do harm to you and your family and your children? what are you going to do heaven

forbid when violent strikes? we are at a point now where police are going to go on stri strike, and they are being blamed for these bad actions. we all acknowledge this. was universal agreement in the case of george floyd and we always want to be a more perfect union. we will get better. the president laid out reforms to make us better. how are departments going to recruit good candidates? i usually don't pay a lot of money especially in the early years of being a police officer. how are police departments supposed to function in an environment like this? to be very clear, accountability is good. of course we need to expose abuse of power, corruption at all levels. we do it on the show every night. we did it at the highest levels of the deep state, within the fbi of all places, within the intelligence community of all places. not the good 99%. what is going on right now with

the defund police movements and no more police movements picking up steam. you don't need a harvard degree. this will lead to a crime wave, this will lead to an exit it's from cities like you have never seen. i go back to this piece, explaining that liberal lawlessness and failed far left governments is simply making life too stressful, too chaotic, and crime-ridden to still live in places like new york and san francisco and minneapolis and many other big cities. what will these cities do when their tax base like chicago for example, they moved and states that don't have income taxes, let's see, florida, texas, arizona for states like carolina or tennessee, no or lower taxes. states like california, new york. they have a mags as i mass exitg

on already. just look at the pool hall costs, let's say you want to move from california to texas. okay, guess what? you're going to pay a lot less. as a matter of fact, it's about $2500 to move from california to texas but only about 400 to go back. you were doing u-haul a favor because they need those trucks because people are racing out of california and by the way, these men and women that put their lives on the line every day for you and your families do this because they love what they do. they are willing to take on the risks all day and every night. mostly 95 percent do an amazing job, they save lives and keep us safe. they are the exact officer. former nypd officer, secret service officer

dan bongino. i am here in atlanta, i love that city. i am hearing this is very real, that these cops, the morale is in the dumps, that they are calling in sick and larger and larger numbers, and there is talk of a broader walk out. is true, sir? >> yes, unfortunately, it is. i received three phone calls today from people, from officers who have told me that they have either given their resignation or are going to give their resignation sometime this week, and they are confused, they don't feel like they are being represented by other community leaders. they are just at a loss. they don't know what to do. they feel like they are being attacked from all sides and aren't being protected by any of our community leaders. when max dan bongino, you talk to cops every day. i talked to a lot of law enforcement even today. this possibility, i am not

encouraging it because i know the consequences will be in my opinion dangerous and dire for innocent law-abiding americans. but cops are fed up. they feel they are not supported, they feel that these broad sweeping generalizations are false, they feel that nobody seems to care about the rocks, the bottles, the molotov cocktails, and the bricks. they don't seem to care over 800 injured, some dead and some paralyzed. they don't seem to be getting any support, in other words. >> you know what i'm hearing from my contacts in law enforcement? they feel like this is a one-way street. like they are honestly trying to make an effort right now, most of the police officers i know to understand where things may have gone wrong. they get that. they understand that a bad interaction with a police officer can ruin someone's entire day or their entire life. they get that. but they don't feel like that empathy is being relayed back to

them. this is a two-way street. think about this. a sense of what it's like to be a cop, could you imagine this for a moment? your job for eight hours a day between five and seven days a week is to go and deal with people, to save people's lives during the worst moments of their life every single day. do you have any idea to the people listening and i know many do, we have great viewers, but to some who don't care, do you have any idea how emotionally draining it is for 40 plus hours a week to go from a missing child to an abused child to a battered wife to someone who is just robbed to someone who is just stabbed and to have the comfort and save the lives of all of those people, do you have any idea what that's like? if you ever heard the term 1,00p knows what that is at the end of a busy shift where you're just

looking and those eyes are empty. there is nothing left. you've left everything in the street. i think most of the cops listening would just ask with the greatest of respect that you just understand that too. >> sean: do you see the potential of a nationwide blue flu? because i am hearing from some people i know that there is chatter about that and these resignations are very real possibility. are you hearing the same? >> i am getting people reaching out from all over the country. this is a nationwide thing and pretty much law enforcement in general is under attack and it is political. we are not doing the job any different than we did a month ago and to dan's point, i was there the night that max brewer got hit by that motorcycle, that four wheeler and i was there when i watched it and then about an hour later, my fugitive unit, my team went out and ended up

having an altercation with those two individuals i ended up arresting them, and six of my guys got arrested. and so that happen. in the middle of all of that, there was gunshots going on, bottles being thrown at us, just got done defending the city the day prior defending the city from damage and it's the only thing that kept the city from burning that night with my team. the same people that came back after working 21 hours and then to be treated like this, to be fired for doing their job, not only just doing their job, they did at the way they were trained to do. >> sean: if the police start resigning en masse, if they decide you know what, okay, you want to see the day on the life of america is without us? i shudder to think of how severe the consequences would be if it ever happened.

i don't think it will, but it could happen if this keeps up. >> people will die, make no mistake. it's not just that they will be less cops on the street. there will be a huge spike in crime because of the lack of presence of police officers, but have you ever considered things like all the fingerprint experts that solve burglaries because they have experienced that are walking out the door, the child-abuse experts who can look at a photo online, instantly recognize who that child is, and the network of people he may have been involved with, any idea what is about to happen because certain people in this country have leveraged the tragedy. is a shame. they are the finest men and women i've ever worked with and you're about to see the ferguson effect times 1,000 and it's a shame and i pray it doesn't happen. >> sean: i pray with you. i pray it doesn't happen, well cited, thank you both. joining us now, some

breaking news. the cops on 9/11, talked about that yesterday, talked about steve scalise who was shot and nearly died in those two brave capitol police officers who walked in an open field against a rifle, the odds of them winning that conflict less than 1%. they did it anyway. wow. anyway, trace gallagher, chief breaking news correspondent with news tonight to show some of that heroism. >> the good guy cop stories are a dime a dozen but they could very little exposure like the los angeles county deputy who saved the life and of an 11-month-old boy who was choking on a coin bear the video shows two women running with the child through a supermarket parking lot when they flagged down deputy cameron kinsey who was monitoring the protests at the time. deputy kinsey immediately swept the boy's mouth with a finger than firmly pop them on the back several times, finally it dislodged and the child started breathing again. he was taken to the hospital just in case, but he is fine.

the deputy said he was the mom who should be credited with quick thinking. meantime in new york, police commissioner tweeted this video of police responding to a man with a gun and when police realized the man is armed, they begin yelling. listen. >> drop it, drop it, drop it! it on the floor right now! >> remember, they have no idea how unstable or stable this person might be in as they approach them, they see his hand wrapped in cloth holding the gun but as you see, the officers were able to recover the gun which was loaded and cell phones, body cam, surveillance video, they are constantly being watched and it is notable that quite often their actions are very commendable. >> sean: thank you. we can show these videos all night. that's why i want cops to return and live pd to return, because

we get to see how hard the job is. he had no idea that gun was loaded. he could've shot. cops do this every day. look at that little kids save because of the action on the knowledge and the professionalism of police. you want to call those guys racist and say they are corrupt? you want to live one day in america without those guys? wouldn't work out well. now we turn breaking news in the rayshard brooks case, both officers charged in the case turn themselves in earlier today but now we have new information about the struggle between brooks with the police officers last friday night. fascinatingly, this was never mentioned by the prosecutor in this case because according to the lawyer who is charged with africa, aggravated assault, he now claims that rayshard brooks resulting in a concussion. >> ends up taking out a taser and yelling at him stop

fighting, stop fighting. mr. brooks grabbed the taser from him and shoots devon. devon gets shot with the taser. he then falls over and lands on his head on the pavement and gets a concussion that we have the medical records with the d.a. had no interest in saying, the medical records that show that he has a concussion, has bruises on his legs, on his knees are injured, on his arms. >> sean: so you mean the jury will actually hear that? so we don't rush to judgment, we wait for all the facts to come in. remember how it all got to this point. on both sides, the police, mr. brooks, it was polite, it was professional. i hate was courteous interaction with the police and then they started to cough him. they had no choice. he was above the legal limit. he resisted arrest, and he struggled with police officers. you can see him hitting the police officers. he then is told stop fighting, stop fighting.

i'm going to tase you, get your hand off my taser, then he stole the taser and of course you see the officers hit off balance, attempted to shoot tried to shoot out with the taser that he had. as he is running, he turns around and then points. fires a taser at the officer and foot pursuit. and the fellow officer responded shooting brooks twice in the back with a handgun. didn't rush to judgment but it's going to be a lot of analysis by lawyers that are going to make a lot of case and will do something that usually happens in a courtroom. they will look at the law because under georgia law, if a police officer reasonably believes that he is facing imminent death or serious bodily harm, he or she could use lethal force. and as we are now also learning tonight, a taser is in fact a

deadly weapon according to georgia law, and by the way, and an unrelated case, just a couple of weeks ago, the fulton county d.a. who we heard from yesterday said it himself. don't take my word for it. this is what the d.a. said. this worker's own words when we were talking about an entirely different case. take a look at it. >> as many of you know under georgia law, it is considered to deadly weapon under georgia law. >> also learning about much more. joining us now, civil rights attorney, fox news correspondent at large geraldo rivera. so the guy had a concussion, the guy was tased and now we learned that a taser is considered a deadly weapon. now there is the law and then there is the video and then the guy turning with the taser as a matter of law, how good a case is he going to have?

>> he is going to have a fantastic case and what was disingenuous about the d.a. this d.a. should resign or recuse himself because he is in a runoff election and he filed these charges, georgia bureau of investigation completed its investigation. he is using this to politicize and maximize his chance of winning. do you honestly believe that that those officers were black? this is reverse discrimination. that's the elephant in the room. no one can honestly say that two black officers would have been overcharged like this, and i think given the law that he could use reasonable force if he is facing imminent threat, given the admission by the georgia

district attorney, a taser's deadly force. i think the officer has a very good chance to win this case and keisha bottoms, the mayor, you are on my kamala harris list. focus on the city, focus on bringing these police officers back to work. >> sean: okay. a taser is in fact a deadly weapon. we know that an officer can use lethal force if, in fact, they reasonably believe they are facing imminent death or serious bodily injury. now we have the d.a. in his own words a few weeks ago saying a taser is in fact a deadly weapon and you see clear as day on the video that he turned to shoot the cop with a deadly weapon according to the d.a. >> he would be a great defense attorney and these defenses will be raised and i think how good a case is extremely relevant. i think the cases reasonable, but i think may be overstating

the georgia statute just a bit. >> sean: i am reading it directly. >> i know. but read it again. officer rolf had taken his 9-millimeter out, shot him twice in the back after all the taser stuff was already gone. let me just make one point. >> sean: the guy turns around -- exactly. yes. let's separate. >> is a taser a deadly weapon? is a taser a deadly weapon? >> give me one sentence. paul howard, the district attorney grotesquely overcharged. this is no way, shape, or form a capital felony murder case. what this is as a manslaughter case.

not that he's guilty of manslaughter but that's an appropriate charge for the jury to decide whether or not reasonably believed that he was in serious harm. >> sean: so here's the question. hang on. the standard will be in the courtroom, and jury of 12, you need all 12 beyond a reasonable doubt. will they reach that standard leo and then geraldo and then i've got to go. >> will they reach a standard of finding guilt on these officers? no. it is the taser a deadly weapon? >> sean: that's the same question. will the jury of 12? >> i have no way of predicting how the jury will decide. i know in the walter scott case in south carolina, it was 11-1 hung jury, had to go to the federal court. i think it's entirely reasonable to expect that this will be resolved in federal court rather than state court. >> that's no answer.

>> sean: we have a lot to cover tonight, thank you both. a stunning decision in the u.s. supreme court. what happened to you, john roberts? also senator tom cotton and crowds already lining up in oklahoma to see the president this weekend. we will compare that to forgetful joe. for veterans and active-duty service people. some of them are giving their lives right now, today, for the freedoms that we have here in this country. so for us, at newday to help those people at this point in time. it's a labor of love, it's a noble service, and that's what we're all about.

>> sean: an outrageous decision out of the u.s. supreme court today by a 5-4 court. they ruled that efforts to end the unilateral program that gave legal protections to immigrants brought to the country illegally as children and just like in the case of obamacare, it was chief justice john roberts joining the four liberals on the court to make a highly technical ridiculous argument that benefited the obama administration. now even barack obama himself recognized he can do this by the executive but did it anyway before rolling out daca in 2012, obama said he needed an act of congress to help the so-called dreamers. watch this clip of him addressing immigration activists in 2011. >> i know some people want me to bypass congress and change the laws on my own.

the idea of doing things on my own is very tempting. i promise you, not just on immigration reform. but that is not how our system works. that is not how our democracy functions. >> sean: democratic public here with the reaction, acting dh secretary chao 12. he is admitting he didn't have the power to do it and he did it anyway. john roberts did this with health care. may be once a different job title in his life because certainly not following the law by any reasonable analysis that i see. >> what i can tell you is that the daca program is unlawful. said the department of homeland security has the authority to

they were doing and i think that lip that you to me because what just played as they made this program out of thin air, this administration has thought long about this, decided to wind this unlawful program down over a series of six months and again, what we have is a supreme court saying that's not good enough, you need to go back at it and relook at that and that is very troubling to me. >> sean: and he admitted that he didn't do it, but he did it anyway. was a constitutional? because i don't believe it was. >> that's absolutely right. we have one administration making a program, a second administration taking a look at how do we wind down and unlawful program. what they did is create a new law, a new program the deferred action program out of thin air.

we have been begging congress to address the daca recipients, they have decided not to do this time and time again. the president has been a clear around us and wants a legal solution and not a political solution to this issue. very disappointed in the decision today, but will keep at it. >> sean: there about, secretary, thank you. now it's clear the courts aren't going to do much to block the left stream of open borders and no one is more happy about that then president obama who prays the decision he once thought he didn't have the power to do. been very outspoken about this. i think barack obama was right then, but he did anyway. now the question is, what about john roberts, you had some let's say unflattering words for him today.

the second obamacare case as he was cited, on the census case last year where he said the question about citizenship can be answered and then on this case today, other justices made it clear in their descendants that the law cannot be that what barack obama has done, donald trump and no other president cannot undo. there cannot be two sets of rules allowing him to issue decrees by memo enforcing a donald trump or other republican presidents to jump through all kinds of legal hoops to undo those decrees. with simply has to be the case as there is one set of rules for both parties and chief justice roberts continues to rule in ways that seem designed to minimize criticism from democrats and from the media. >> sean: it seems that justice roberts has taken on my sources had said and i think they're pretty reliable, confirmed it more than once that

justice roberts was a voting one way on obamacare, but then didn't want them to see a certain way. that is the case, wouldn't that mean that it should be the rule of law and the constitution, not to his own views for his belief of how the court should be perceived? >> i have heard that, and there is some evidence in the first obamacare cases opinion for it as well. this is exactly my point. justices take an oath to uphold the rule of law and let the chips fall where they may in terms of the results of their opinions. unfortunately, the chief justice seems more focused on results than he does on reason. >> sean: senator tom cotton, thank you. we will be the ultimate jury, one of many, many reasons that there is everything on the line as it relates to this country. never been a more clear choice

about the future we will leave our kids and grandkids. when we come back, believe it or not, today is thursday, people are already lining up for the rally this weekend in oklahoma saturday. a lot different than joe biden's event like that when on your screen. seems the left is going after john bolton, we have a lot of inconsistencies about john bolton, the architect karl rove will weigh in on all of that and where we stand in terms of the selection that you will decide and 138 days. that's next. be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. listen to the doctor. take it seriously.

>> sean: some in the media saying major anticipation building is trump supporter's have. is true. they have now begun lining up for the rally this weekend, look at this. over 1 million people have signed up to be there. a lot different than events like biden is hiding, the one that terry mcauliffe says i am fine with him in the basement, keep them in the basement. and here's a question. i'd love to know john bolton, who is the real john bolton? the guy on the right and the left are calling him out.

joining us now, former bush deputy chief of staff and fox news contributor, when you release classified information, you sign a paper saying he won't publish such things and we now know our government is saying he did and didn't go through the process. let me add this. i can tell you my own experience of things that john bolton said to me that i know are absolutely false. that's just a side note. he praised president trump's strength approach to foreign policy like reagan, said the president is standing up to china, never seen an american president this tough, which counters a major narrative in his book. also said his efforts with north korea is that trump will never make the mistakes prior administrations, praise the president for his very strong action to counter russia, praised him on his nato policy,

praise the president on maximum pressure on iran, and if i recall, i do believe that we will keep scrolling this and look at the same time, but i believe that didn't he also say bad things about george w. bush that weren't true? might be wrong on that. >> i don't remember that, but there is going to be a problem for ambassador bolton that he was a fervent public defender of the administration, the trump administration's effort and presidents activities. at the same time that according to his -- i haven't read the book, only red but spend in the papers in our online. he is highly critical of the president so there is a conflict between the two. and i thought trey gowdy represented a strong opinion that is going to be felt among many on the right and that is if you felt so poorly about the

president, if you thought the president was so ill-prepared to be president of united states states and if you thought he was over his head and beyond his skis, whatever analogy you want to use, why did you stay? so this is going to be that, also he said, she said and this is an example where ambassador bolton says this is what happened in a meeting with president xi and president trump brought up his election and said you've got to help me get reelected and then we had under oath in congress yesterday saying i was in that same meeting. so they were going to be two fallouts from this, first of all, very little fallout on the actual election itself because if you like trump, this isn't going to change her mind. you didn't like him, it'll simply reinforce you. that is a big impact is going to be we have 138 days before the election and president trump and his team are going to be spending three, four, five more days talking about it. the more they talk about it, the

more conversation there is going to be about it. may be the appearance in tulsa will give them a chance to turn the page, but the president is having to talk to them about it and as a result, chewing up time that would otherwise be devoted to other things. that is going to be the consequence of the political fallout. >> sean: they were two very different john bolton's i'm describing here. the one in the book and the one here. he says the exact opposite. i agree with you, it will have no impact on the 2020 election. my perception is at this point that if the president stays out of these silly media fights with jim acosta because he is a waste of the president's time and not worthy of it and if the president stays out of every cultural issue that they are trying to drag him into and the president focuses in on the economy beginning to recover dramatically by the time the election comes in the president

makes the case that only he can do it and the country gets to see joe biden up against trump, i would say this president with that discipline wins a resounding reelection. that would take discipline the message and i think the president has shown he is more than capable of it especially this last week, has been dialed in perfectly in my view. >> three things. i think you're right there the president does need to go out there and in essence do the job of being president. achieving things, getting a law enforcement reform bill for example, doing the executive order. he needs to do the job of being president. most important of all, get the economy revved back up. that is going to be the most important presidential job. second thing is he does need to be able to show contrast points between what he is done and what he wants to do. but the emphasis on wants to do with what joe biden wants to do with got to find a way to be able to contrast himself with both what he has done and what he wants to do with what

joe biden wants to do and thirdly, he needs to find a way to go after the weaknesses of joe biden such as the fact that biden has been so bad on foreign policy, the fact that he turned a blind eye to the influence peddling of his son and so forth. so the problem is in 2016, president trump is a full-time candidate, now he is a full-time president who's got to be a part-time candidate but he's got three things to do, one of them is to do the job, one is to present a vision of what he wants to do that contrast with that of joe biden and finally, has to find a way to go after the weaknesses of joe biden and this needs to be done as you say and an organized, deliberate, disciplined fashion and that is the one lesson i learned from 2,004 because the president is the president, you really have to be very disciplined when it comes to the campaign because you've got a lot less of his time than you had as we had in 2000 when bush was running as a candidate for an open seat. >> sean: and then running against joe and if he stays out

of the fights they try to constantly drag him into. >> you are right. don't fall for it. the media want to draw him into these needless fights. some of these reporters are desperate to get the airtime of having a fight with the president. >> sean: he doesn't need to talk to them ever. they already hate him. we know that. the american people would respond to that. i think you are right. karl rove, the architect. when we come back, lawlessness continues to grip seattle. portland police dismantle an autonomous zone outside the mayor's house. you mean you can do it successfully? may be jay inslee, may be the mayor of seattle should learn a lesson or two. that's thanks. so as you head back out on the road, we'll be doing what we do best. providing some calm in your day. with virtual, real-time tours of our vehicles as well as remote purchasing. for a little help, on and off the road.
