tennessee valley. it was created to give americans jobs in tennessee which was ravaged by the great depression, and i'll outsourcing those jobs to foreign nationals. >> tucker: tells you everything. different kind of democrats than. pedro gonzalez, thank you so much without. great to see you. we are out of time. sean hannity is right now. >> sean: tucker, thank you, as always. welcome to "hannity." tonight, we have breaking news surrounding a massive, deadly explosive in beirut, lebanon. wait until you see the tape unfold. that straight ahead. l plus, the very latest details from today's heated antifa hearing on capitol hill. senator ted cruz is with us. also, condoleezza rice slamming the thought police on the radical left. we'll explain that. also, we start tonight with the developing story out of, yes,e joe biden's basement bunker. tonight, there are currently three presidential debates in the works. joe's biggest fans in the media mob are now begging him not to show. i have sources telling me tonight that his team missing,

can we bring notes?, they clearly believe that joe biden is too weak and too feeble. they are worried that he will be destroyed by president trump,el and fake, conspiracy news theorists. cnn's own humpty dumpty tweeting that this story is far removed from reality. oh, okay, there is no violencece in seattle or portland and it's just a summer of love and festive atmosphere. i guess they forgot about theirr own network's coverage, or maybe they're just psychotic liars over there. one top political analyst, fake news cnn actually pleading with biden, please don't debate donald trump. here's "the new york times" op-ed entitled "let's scrap the presidential debate." here's another one fromhe "the boston herald," biden better walk back any offers tore debate president trump. a report from "newsweek" claiming biden's own supporters were urging him, don't debate the president. now, normally a candidate challenging an incumbent pushes for as many debates as possible. not joe biden and not his supporters.

they want him to stay hiding and for good reason. his most recent debate performances were, frankly, painful to watch. so tonight, we're going to take you on what is really a cringeworthy trip down memory lane because you are the ultimate voter. r you will be the jury and the ultimate deciders in just 91 days, as we show you the veryti worst moments and we start with this bizarre sound bite of biden talking about, well, clipping coupons in the stock market. okay, let's watch. >> why in god's name should someone who is clipping coupons in the stock market make, in fact, pay a lower tax rate and then someone who is in fact, like i said, a schoolteacher a firefighter? >> sean: does joe even know what he is trying to say? another odd moment, but, biting and encouraging all children to listen to a record player at night. went happily last had a record player? take a look.

>> play the radio. make sure the television -- excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night. the phone. make sure the kids hear words.. >> sean: and the confusion doesn't stop there. one debate, he actually forgot that senator kamala harris even existed. take a look. >> i have more people supporting me in the black community for me because they know me, they know who i am. three former chairs of the black caucus. the only black -- african-american woman who have ever been elected to the united states senate. a whole range of people. >> that's not true. the other one is here. [laughter] >> the first. >> sean: what day is it, super thursday, what state am i in? no hard feelings, senator. joe can't even seem to remember his own web address or how text messaging works. take a look. >> we have never, never been unable to overcome whatever the problem was.

if you agree with me, go to joe 30330 and help me in this fight. >> sean: for the record, that meant nothing.33 there was no joe 30330 anything. now, confusion is not biden's only issue. well, his fits of rage, they are also concerning. for example, here's a clip of joe berating his potential running mate, elizabeth warren. let's take a look at that. >> i mean, i agreed with the great a job she did, and i went on the floor and got you votes.i i got votes for that bill. i convinced people to vote for it, so let's get those things straight, too. >> sean: if you thought that was bad, listen to his plan to eradicate domestic violence. >> no man has a right to raise a hand to a woman in anger other than in self-defense, and that rarely ever occurs. and so, we have to just changeth the culture, period, and keep punching at it and punching at it and punching at it.

there will be a big -- no, i really mean it. it's a gigantic issue. >> sean: no one knows what's going to come out of joe's mouth. i don't even think joe himself knows, but what scares democrat. the most are joe biden's, let's say weird, strange, bizarre stories. here's one example. take a look. >> by the way, you know, i sit on the stand, and it gets hot. i've got hairy legs that turn, that turn blonde in the sun. and the kids used to come up and reach into the pool and rub my leg down and then watch the hair come back up again. they would look at it. so, i learned about roaches, i learned about kids jumping on my lap, and i love kids jumping on my lap. >> sean: hairy legs turn blonde and kids like to rub it. what? leg hair, roaches, children, what?

ask yourself, this is a fair question, does he have the mental alertness? is this man fit to serve as commander in chief? does he have the strength and stamina? it's the most demanding job in the world and it's obvious to everyone that joe biden is a massive liability to himself, to the democratic party, and more important, to this country as a whole? some on the left, the radical left, they see it as an opportunity. why? because he is the dumb, useful idiot that they will use to "transform this country and the economy." that is why this is by far the most consequential election in our lifetime.ec i've a book out, thank you, you made it number one on amazon.com of the entire country, "live free or die: america and the world on the brink." it's out today, hannity.com, amazon.com but the reason i: wrote this, first in ten years, i cover in detail what makes this country so special, and as reagan said, and warned us, "freedom is but one generation

away from extinction." make no mistake, if the radical left take over, if they implement their stated socialist policies, you can pretty much kiss freedom goodbye and none of those promises will ever be fulfilled. how is social sociall security, how's medicare, let's see, how is that obamacare keep your plan and your doctor, save money, how's that working out? how's it working with safety and security in cities run by liberal democrats and states run by liberal democrats for decades? how's the issue of education in those cities? come november, 91 days, our future as a country and frankly, the world, as goes america so goes the world, will be hanging in the balance. you decide. 91 days. here with more, former arkansas government, fox news contributor, mike huckabee. along with the author of the upcoming book, "don't lie to me and stop trying to steal our freedom." judge jeanine pirro. i don't think i would ever lie to judge pirro, would you? because she scares me. i watched her opening monologue

i love her show, some of her own monologues scare me, and we've been friends for years. >> yeah, i think it's healthy she's been doing her show by remote, so she can't actually hurt you that way. >> oh, governor! >> congratulations. we do, of course. congratulations on the book, great start, number one. by the way, joe has a book coming out. it's called "live or die for free." it's the new democrat socialist mantra. so, that's his new book. it's not number one and it's noa going to be number one because he's over there enjoying people jumping in his lap and feeling the leg hairs, trying to figure out how to send a text message. >> sean: i don't even know what to make of it. what i see happening though, judge, this is now really serious. we are three months away. their stated policies, they are

all proven failures. they can't pay the trillionsns that joe's promising to spend on the new green deal. do we really love our second amendment rights? >> you know what? >> sean: yeah? >> well, first of all, sean, congratulations on being number one. i'm glad you wrote another book and i'm really not that mean. i'm really a really -- >> sean: no, i can confirm that. you are the loveliest, loveliest person in the room. >> okay, let's talk about joe biden. look, the reason joe biden is not coming out to debate is because he thinks people will remember him as he was. if you think about it, the only time we have seen him recently is when he is on script or with the teleprompter and with his wife holding him up.p. now, the more they delay this,e voting starts on august 29th, i think, so if they can push the actual debates, september 29th, keep pushing it forward, then everybody is already voting, they think joe is a great guy

but they're going to have buyers remorse, or biden's remorse for voting for this guy early and that is what they are doing. they are delaying. he can't deliver anything because he doesn't know what he is talking about.ng >> sean: and it does get downright scary, governor huckabee. he doesn't know what state he is in, he doesn't know what day it is. in 130-some-odd days, he's done two little press conferences. okay, my papers says, go to joe from "the new york times." these bizarre, you know, he does these town hall meetings where he actually has his phone upar like this, and then, he forgets he is on camera and he walks off. forgot he was on camera. they have to go to black and say, joe in illinois. >> you know, i think we are having a little fun with this because you have to, but the truth is it is a very serious decision for voters and the big question they have to ask themselves, if joe biden has the capacity for leadership, how come he hasn't shown it in the

50 years that he's been in public office, living off the taxpayers? there is not one big accomplishment, not one thing he can beat his chest over and say, "thanks to me, joe biden, this is how we help make america a better place." donald trump, in really less than three years, has been able to show a dramatic sense of economic turnaround, business development, deregulation, putting america on the world stageen with respect, finally fulfilling promises, moving the embassy to jerusalem of israel, and standing up for life. a president that actually believes in the sanctity of life, how refreshing. sean, that is why this electioni all jokes aside, is a very serious one and joe biden is not capable of filling that role. >> sean: you know, judge, the governor brings up a good point.

lawrence jones on this show was asking a simple question. he's been in the swamp for 51 years. can you name a single specific accomplishment? the answers were, he is nice, he smiles, he was barack's vice president. that's not the question, what has he done for we the people? i can't think of one solid thing, not one. >> well, no one can think of anything. he's been around for what, 40-some years and he's been wrong on just about every foreign policy suggestion he has made. but i think the important question right now is, given the fact that this is a guy who can't put a sentence together, a thought together, can't answer a question, running into an suv come he can't answer a question, you have to wonder, who is pulling the strings? who is behind joe biden? who is running this man? i think i do. what do you think, sean?

>> sean: bolshevik burning, he has plagiarized his economic agenda. aoc, pledged trillions for the green new deal. bozo o'rourke, the confiscation guy, pelosi and schumer. he is saying it, that is his policy. >> and barack obama. >> sean: good answer. i hate when i get topped by my guest but she just topped me. i'm watching this all unfold. the question is, governor huckabee, he's been able to hide in a bunker, and now they are saying -- if he doesn't debate, what is the consequence? >> i think it's devastating for him not to debate because the american people expect it, they deserve it, and if they don't get it, they're going to say "there's something wrong here." the one thing you can be absolutely certain of, president trump can't wait to get on that debate stage.ng i've been on the debate stage with him. let me tell you something, he walks out there, he is fearless. he absolutely is fearless on the debate stage.

he goes with a reckless abandon, but he has a lot of fun, and when i say that, one thing the american people like is a candidate who actually is so comfortable in his own skin that he doesn't seem like he isat reading off the back of his head. joe biden is reading off cards that have been o embedded in the back of his head. donald trump is just freewheeling and letting it go, and people appreciate that kindg of straightforward honesty and transparency. >> sean: governor huckabee, thank you.ci judge, don't forget, saturday night, 9:00. we all love judge jeanine. we are just giving her a hard time. all right, there is risk here now. think about this, the bar has never been lower for a presidential candidate as a relates to a debate. think about this. if joe biden can simply show up, i would not be shocked or surprised at all that he is probably in the basement bunker

spending hours, mock debates, every single day. but if he doesn't lose it, oh, the mob and the media, he's the clear winner! okay, what about his policies? now, that is how corrupt and abusively biased the mob is, but we already know they are anti-trump anything. they are pro-democratic radical socialists.we they are conspiracy theorists, and they are people who have an agenda, they are state-run propaganda tv for the democratic radical socialist party. given biden's struggles, many believe that his vice president might be a notable figure in the campaign. by the way, that has historically not been the case but many of those rumored to be in consideration, they have a lot of baggage. elizabeth warren, she did fake that she was native american for decades. kamala harris went directly at biden's atrocious, pretty despicable positions on segregation, integration. his racial jungle comment, or his praise of robert the former klansman bird.

susan rice, spygate, corrupt, dishonest, and she's got her own issues after her enthusiastic support for fidel castro. by the way,wn the congresswomans now an election year conversion, forced to announce she is "not a mmcommunist." only visited cuba eight times. how many of us have visited cuba eight times? she's praised the murderous regime of castro. bass also faces ties to louis farrakhan's group. according to a report in "the daily caller," the congressman has posed for pictures with nation of islam officials, appeared at various events, and of course, thehe leader of the nation of islam is a fringe radical virulent anti-semitic racist, louis farrakhan. called the jews termites and praised adolf hitler. god teaches me that the white man is the skunk of planet earth.

he hasnk encouraged violence against white people at other times. joining me now, press t communications for trump 2020, erin perini is with us, fox news contributor emily compagno is with us.at all right, let's get your take on this and where you see this race.. i guess hiding is a good strategy because actually, going against the president who has to be out there dealing with significant issues.fi worst pandemic for 1980, getting the economy back on track, so i guess that it's been a strategy but he has come out the last two weeks and what we've heard is the mostad radical, i think, candidate that's ever been nominated. >> that's absolutely right, hannity. i think their campaign has made no secret of the fact that the committees make all the major decisions and certainly, not biden himself. a senior aide said no one in biden land is emboldened to make those decisions. least of all biden himself. in the next upcoming weeks, this is his chance to weigh in to gauge if he has that elusive

obama spark he claimed to have with then president obama.e but on karen bass, i have to point out h that her comments cn be particularly damning when taken against the backdrop of who they affect. you mention the fidel castro comments, there is a major cuban-american block in battleground florida, not to moderates and centrist votes that biden needs that they're going to win. but i think her mayor culp might bring her a few steps forward, otherwise it's a simply a radical buffet. >> sean: erin, you're the director of press communications for the 2020 campaign, and you can see the biggest donor in this entire race is going to be the media mob, which hated donald trump since the day he and melania trump came down the escalator at trump tower. >> i mean, you are right, sean. first, congratulations on the new book, and thank you for having me, but you're right, the media is clearly putting their hand on the scale to try to make things easier for joe biden. they're trying to provide him air cover on the debates, trying

to make things easier for him when it comes to trying to pick a vp nominee. and they can cover for all these things. i mean, let's look at how radical the democrats have become in this country. the presumptive democrat nominee is actually considering a castro sympathizer as his vp nominee to put them a heartbeat away from the presidency of the united states. v that's the radical left, that is who joe biden is beholden to, and it's unbelievable that thisj is a conversation we are having in a free and fair america. but the american people know and should stay rest assured that president trump is unequivocally clear, this will never be a socialist nation with him at the helm. >> sean: when you think of the damage, and i have a chapter inr the book about "socialism: the history of failure." okay, what caused him to go so solidly left, meaning biden. why would you embrace socialist bernie sanders' economic agenda and actually steal the verbiage

from it, lift it, plagiarize it, even. why would you pledge trillions for aoc's new green deal when most presidential candidates,t, when it comes to the general election, they might've move left, they moved to the center, doing just the opposite. >> well, i think it's because joe biden is not a leader. there is not a sense of identity of concrete ethics, of concrete tenants that joe biden stands for. and i know there's a lot of people who are supporting him right now they disagree, but he's extremely long career in federal service and in government, what does he have to show for it? there's something to be said of growing with the times, developing as a human and politically, but the larger answer is he is capitulating to the left because the party is. he is not standing firm and tall and saying actually, this is what i believe, here are my policies and it's something people can magnetize towards. i know we're recovering later the enthusiasm quotient for donald trump but this is exactly my larger point, that it's not a

shock. this is not a magnet leader, this is someone who is flimsy and as i said, capitulating. >> sean: erin, last word. >> i actually completely agree with emily on this. joe biden himself is not a leader. he has almost 50 years of complete failure. calls himself a transition candidate, and what does he want to transition to? aoc, bernie sanders, and the squad. not america first policies, not bold, president trump-style leadership that brought america to such greatness. >> sean: great commentary, both of you. thank you. when we come back, earlierp today, senator ted cruz chaired a hearing on antifa's role in the riots that we saw all across the country, and one democratic senator actually walked out.nt senator cruz joins us. he gives us the inside of you. later, live update on the massive explosion in beirut that literally left thousands injured. president trump calling it an attack. israel offers to help. later, immediately after the

>> sean: breaking news, senator ted cruz of texas chaired an important hearing on the violent rioters plaguing liberal run cities for decades. all across the country. portland, oregon, for example, for weeks we have seen unhinged agitators attacking law enforcement, unleashing a wave of destruction coast-to-coast. here's senator cruz from earlier today. >> denying fair protection of law enforcement is a civil rights violation. those rioters aren't concerned about racial injustice. indeed, they are willing to make a mockery of the peaceful protest to advance their violent objectives. more and more, we are seeing signs that a significant portion of this violence of this rioting is not random, it's not spontaneous. rather, it is coordinated and inspired by leftists, anarchist groups, groups like antifa. we are seeing too many local

officials, mayors and governors, who have made a cynical decision that it is in their partisan interest to turn a blind eye to this violence. i would also note that the ranking member said nobody is condoning the violence and rioting, and yet nowhere in the opening remarks was even one word condemning it. >> sean: senator, welcome back to the program. i want to read something else you said, and i will get to the comment in a second. you said you are a constitutional scholar. alan dershowitz, you went there, said you were one of the best students he has ever had and one of the best debaters. he said the first amendment guarantees the right of free speech and the right to peaceably assemble, but peacefully assembling matters a great deal and peaceful protesters must be protected. riots must be stopped. they are not stopping it, senator. >> not only are they not stopping it, they are facilitating it. at the end of the day, this is

not complicated.. the first amendment protects our right to speak. everyone of us has a right to speak, we have a right to protest with the text the first amendment provides. it protects our rights to peacefully assemble and air our grievances. what is happening unfortunately is not free speech and those who are peaceably protesting are seeing their protests hijacked by violent anarchists, by marxists who are engaged in acts of terror. at the end of the day, none of this is complicated. don't assault your fellow citizens. don't firebomb a police car, don't loot and destroy small businesses, don't murder police officers and i've got to tellma you, what is striking, in about four hours of hearing today in the senate constitution subcommittee that i chair, seveo democrats spoke and questioned the witnesses. not a single one dared to criticize antifa in any way because they are making a

cynical decision that they want to encourage these radical leftists who are assaulting and threatening american citizens. it's really unfortunate. >> sean: let me go to that point you just made, the cynical decision, it's in their artisan interests to turn a blind eye to violence, and then you went on to throw out terms like stormtroopers, gestapo to describe law enforcement. let me put on the screen the comments of nancy pelosi. she compared our federal law enforcement to stormtroopers and let me play senator clyburn. first, he made a nazi comparison. he compared the president to a fascist, to mussolini, and jerry nadler says it's a myth. the violence we see with our own eyes doesn't happen. let me play that for you. >> and this president and this attorney general, doing everything they possibly can to impose gestapo activities in local communities, and that ispo what i have been warning about for a long time.

>> do you disavow violence from antifa? that's happening in portland right now? >> that is the myth that is being spread only in washington, d.c. >> about antifa and portland? there's videos everywhere online. fires, riots, they are throwing fireworks at federal officers. look online. t it gets crazy, mr. nadler. >> sean: senator, when joe biden has to take on bernie's agenda and aoc's agenda and go radical, hard left, thatd is a sign of weakness. i will give you another sign of weakness. when people start using nazi and fascist analogies, that is weakness too, and denying what our own eyes show us, that is just bizarre. >> look, the hateful rhetoric of the democratic side, they've unleashed the crazies in the party and most of the party is really held captive to the extreme, angry voices, whether it's antifa, whether it's aoc, or bernie sanders,

elizabeth warren, and you see them denying reality. you also see them using rhetoric. i mean, calling federal policeen officers stormtroopers or gestapo as clyburn did. i mean, cops are not nazis and it is grotesque and offensive. i challenged every democrat in that hearing, do any one of you apologize to those police officers that your party is calling nazis? not any one of them. you played jerry nadler saying it is a myth, it doesn't exist. testimony from my long-timeth friend, the acting deputy of't homeland security, do you know l how many injuries there have been to federal police officers in the last six months, just in portland? >> sean: i know overall, recently in the last two weeks, 2,000. and some 14 killed. >> just in portland, 277 injuries. we're talking throwing pipes,

throwing rocks, frozen water bottles, we are talking hitting a federal officer on the head with a sledgehammer. we are talking using commercial grade lasers to blind the officers, and by the way, it's interesting. ken brought one of the commercial grade lasers, i have to admit, i looked at that claim and i kind of thought that was overwrought. i sort of thought of the laser partner that you play with a cat with and what's the big deal? ken took the later and pointed it at my hand before the hearing. for literally one second. on your hand. you go "ouch, crap," and it burns your hand. you will not keep your hand there for more than a second, it will burn it. they are pointing it at their eyes. they have had over 30 injuries and a risk of permanent blinding. that is what these terrorists are doing and the democrats not only are refusing to admit it, but they are ordering police officers not to protect them..

as you know, i introduced legislation called the reclaim acts that says if you were injured, if your home or business is burned or destroyed as a result of rioting and the local officials have denied you police protection and ordered r the police to stand down, you have a federal cause of action, you can sue the city or the municipality and get triple damages because what they areio doing is a denial of basic civil rights. >> sean: you've raised such a good point. i've always argued that sanctuary cities and states, these politicians are aiding and abetting lawmaking. abetting lawbreaking. and i would say, if you refuse as a politician to enforce the law, restore law of order and anarchy, is that aiding and abetting when people get hurt and killed? >> it is. let me say final thing because i hear the music playing.nana congrats on debuting number one on amazon.com. "live free or die," all of your viewers are buying your book

the minister said it was apparently caused by ammonium nitrate that was stored in the warehouse. the minister stated at least seven to eight have been killed and more than 4,000 are wounded. there are many people missing until now. people are asking the emergency department about their loved ones. and it's difficult to search at night because there is no electricity. we are facing a real catastrop catastrophe. beirut hospitals tonight are overwhelmed with the injured. the red cross has called for all the ambulance to help. >> sean: all right, mabelle, thank you. what she is staying, breaking up there, we are talking about ammonium nitrate. that's what happened. wow. 4,000 injuries, she is reporting. okay, also today, former secretary condoleezza rice called out the left for their preconceived notion of what african-americans should think. take a look at this.

>> i would like to get to the place where that when you see somebody who is black, you don't have preconceived notions of what they are capable of, who they are. by the way, what they think, which is, i think, problem of the left. >> sean: joe biden, you know, then you ain't black. what? same guy that said racial jungle as it related to integration, praising the segregationist. the guy who, yes, filibustered the civil rights act '64. also this week, the daily mail obtained leaked body cam footage of george floyd's arrest. let's take a look at this new evidence. >> are you on something right now? you're acting erratic. >> let's go. >> yes. i was just moving earlier. >> stay on your feet. face the car door.

the same thing that i said. one of the reasons why am voting for trump. the democratic party, sean, honestly believes that every black has to vote for them. they own us. they do not own me, and over a million blacks voted for trump in 2016. there are going to be twice as many in 2020. it's going to be very fundamental, when he tries to walk that statement back, he really meant it. you have show and documented 40 years of history that joe biden has been basically a racist, and one final point condoleezza rice said, you've echoed this so many times. education is the key to break the poverty cycle, and the teachers union has financed democratic candidates as a result of that. guess what? the democrats will not allow black kids school choice vouchers. it's outrageous, the number one civil rights issue. school choice and vouchers and we've got to change that. >> sean: if donald trump

praised the guy that filibustered the '64 civil rights act, integration. if donald trump said, i don't know, about integration, racial jungle, doesn't want his kids involved in, i just think this would be covered a lot more but maybe i am just wrong and naive. i'm sure they would have equal treatment for the president. >> are you suggesting, sean hannity, that there is a double standard in the media? the republicans are held to one standard and democrats a different standard? i'm shocked. this is exactly why i did my movie "uncle tom" because of the treatment of people like condoleezza rice. remember the popular cartoonist who did "the boondocks?" he publicly called her a murderer and referred to george w. bush as a racist and when people say what about condi rice and powell? he said and this is a paraphrase, well, hitler had a lot of jews in the hierarchy as well. this is the kind of treatment black conservatives have gotten in the media for years at the

hands of both whites and blacks because the democratic party has told people that if you don't toe the lever for the democratic party, you're a sell-out, a self-loather, and things i cannot say on a family television show. it is outrageous. >> sean: it is so important. don't we all want to become a more perfect union? larry and leo? >> let me tell you right now, we are moving towards that because what people are shocked that i left the democratic party and moved over. what's happening is this, the democrats play on emotions and fear. the republicans are dealing with policy and facts and what is undisputed is what donald trump has done in three years in this country, improving the lives of people of color. one final point, can i get an autographed copy of your book? >> sean: done, no problem. yes, and for free, too. that goes back to your liberal days. last word, larry?

>> sean, i dare the left, including the former lefty leo terrel, to watch my movie, "uncle tom," on uncletom.com. you tell me that you feel the same way after you've seen it. you won't, i promise you. >> sean: by the way, congratulations, larry. when we come back, hillary clinton, by the way, blamed everything and everyone for the 2016 election loss. today, she's spreading a new conspiracy theory about what republicans are going to do in november. dan bongino, geraldo, next. ♪ - i'm jeff anderson.

♪ >> sean: hillary clinton and the friends in the media mob are always floating conspiracy theories. here's the latest, republicans are now trying to sabotage the post office to rig the election. maybe it's the russians involved, maybe vladimir putin. pretty ironic considering the 2017 investigation concluded the united states postal service improperly worked with the union that supported hillary clinton's campaign. of course, nothing will stop hillary from admitting that she is responsible for her loss, peddling one conspiracy hoax with the support from the mob f and the media. according to hillary, the system has always been rigged against her.

look at your screen, we will keep this rolling. here with reaction, dan bongino, fox news correspondent geraldo rivera. geraldo, really? donald trump is going to stay in office, he's going to be taken out by federal troops, and he's a nazi and a fascist, too. >> it's sad to see the former secretary of state and senator and first lady kind of disintegrate into these conspiracy theories, sean, but if i can finish my remarks, gero shut out to my colleagues in beirut, lebanon, i've spent a lot of time there in many conflicts, to see an explosion like that, i've never seen anything like thatik outside of newsreel clips from hiroshima and nagasaki. in terms of the post office and hillary clinton, i think regardless of your political party, i don't think there's any reasonable adult in the country who believe that the postal service is humming along at all

cylinders. i love my postman, i love my post ladies, women, but the post office is broke, it's broken, it's billions in debt, it's dysfunctional, it wasn't for amazon. it would be totally underwater. to think that they are going to be handling tens of millions of absentee ballots i think would be laughable if it wasn't for the carolyn maloney congressional district and the other new york primary. they still haven't settled it in the damn elections were back in june, so how will they handle a national election? and, my last point, structurally, why isn't there one absentee ballot? the president likes the way florida does it, why isn't that the way we do it for all 50 states? you know, i don't understand, why do we have -- this one has one system, this one has another come of this when you can use a prepaid stamp, this when you can't. i think it's preposterous that grown-ups can't get together and make elections, the fundamental cornerstone of democracy.

you can't trust elections and now you're going to -- you can't get the coupons from amazon and they will decide who the next president is, it's preposterous. >> sean: dan bongino. >> a couple points, number one, i have on my social media account a 2012 article byon "the new york times," that bastion of right-wing conservatism, "the new york times." obviously, that's a really bad joke because we all know they are a left-wing rag, but back in 2012 there is a story by adam liptak i encourage you to look up about, yes, the problems with, get ready for it, mail-in voting, where they say, mail-in voting, they are about twice the rejection rate that people actually show up in voting. keep in mind, that was before it was cool to bash trump for pointing out the problems with mail-in voting. showing you again how the media is just hilarious. i mean, they have one job to do, journalism, and they can't get that rate. who even takes hillary seriously?

right before, your control room can tell you, i do take some notes. we had hillary talking about conspiracy theories and scandals, she was involved in a whitewater, rose law, benghazi, spygate, the email scandal, and her husband's name creeps up in this epstein disaster, and we are supposed to take hillary clinton's conspiracy theories seriously? i will take a serious, hard pass on that one. don't go away, man, just go away, to quote the horrible 1980s song. >> sean: these tactics don't work, and we will get a quick answer from geraldo. >> i don't think so. i think the president's approval rating is creeping up and i think he is in a lot better shape than the polls indicate. >> sean: i agree. geraldo. >> he's got a tough fight and he is behind but in the last couple of days, the momentum shifting. but i think he's got a hard road to hoe. >> sean: he's running against a s corpse. he is running against a ghost. >> be that as it may, that wasn't the question you asked. >> sean: bolshevik bernie,

aoc, bozo, and chuckie. scary thoughts. all right, good to see you both. thank you. when we come back, more "hannity," and an announcement after the break. ♪
