more to say about this highly disturbing image, but at this point, it is tradition. so with that, we leave you tonight. have the best weekend with the ones you love. we will see monday, every weeknight at 8:00. sean hannity is next. ♪ >> sean: welcome to "hannity" this busy friday breaking news nine. now the media mob is calling at the biden blitz, heaping praise on turbo joe for surviving, oh, 18-20 minute scripted speech that i'm pretty confident he practiced a lot, and they want you to know that there's definitely nothing cognitively wrong with joe biden. the last three weeks, just erase that from your memory, like the movie, what, "men in black," right, that's everything. anyway, we will get to all of that, and bring you biden's blunders, a week in review, a
10:01 pm
weekly segment. later, we have a full rundown of joe's biggest cheerleaders in the media mob. but first, as we come on the air just a little after 9:00 eastern, 6:00 on the west coast, the floodgates are now open. a seventh andrew cuomo accuser has now come forward, and no dozens of new york democrats, they are calling and demanding governor cuomo resign. that includes congressman jerry nadler, congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez, and just in the last couple hours, chuck schumer and senator kirsten gillibrand, and more than half of all new york state lawmakers. in other words, enough to impeach him. also, new york mayor, comrade de blasio, has made that call. the national organization for women now also calling on handrew cuomo to resign. the latest accusation comes from a reporter who claims "andrew cuomo's hands had been on my body, on my arms, on my shoulders, the small of myn bac,
10:02 pm
my waist, often enough, but by late 2014, i didn't want to go to the holiday party that he was hosting for the albany press corps at the executive mansion." she continued, "he used his touching and sexual innuendo to stoke fear in us. that is the textbook definition of sexual harassment," she said. seven different women, more than 30 others are accused -- are accusing cuomo tonight of bullying and harassment come at another report claims cuomo recently orchestrated a complete smear campaign against one of his accusers. cuomo is now facing a statewide investigation from the new york attorney general's office. the democratically controlled state assembly, they just
10:03 pm
approved, led by the democrats, and impeachment investigation. and one of the claims of sexual assault, where cuomo was accused of groping a staffer under her blouse, has been referred to the police in albany, new york. this is clearly now hitting critical mass. look, on this program, we stay by -- stand by our positions. we don't call for people to be canceled on either side. we believe in due process, we believe in the presumption of innocence. and by the way, we don't rush to judgment, but with all that said, that interview on cbs that corroborated by real-time text messages was very compelling. seven people, that is now a pattern. that's not the standard, by the way, set by andrew cuomo, due process,et i mean. 2018, remember the kavanaugh witch hunt, cuomo said yeah, to dr. christine blasey ford, all survivors of sexual assault, we believe c you. even called on justice kavanaugh to take a lie detector test. cuomo's own attorney, eric schneiderman, was accused of sexual misconduct five years
10:04 pm
ago. cuomo, within hours, immediately called on him to resign, and he did, writing, "no one is above the law, including new york's top legal officer. i do not believe it is possible for eric schneiderman to continue to serve as ag, and for the good of the office, he shouldco resign." and guess what? all of a sudden, andrew cuomo believes in due process, the production of innocence. he doesn't want anyone to rush to judgment. today, while questioning the motives of his accusers, cuomo said he would never bow to cancel culture. listen to this. >> i did not do what has been alleged. tid period. i won't speculate about people's possible motives. the people of new york should not have confidence in a politician who takes a position without knowing any facts or substance. people know the difference between playing politics, bowing to cancel culture, and the
10:05 pm
truth. let the review proceed. i'm not going to resign. i was not elected by the politicians. i was elected by the people. part of this is that i am not part of the political club. and you know what? i'm proud of it. >> sean: why, governor, did you call for mr. schneiderman to resign immediately? why did you say the things you said about justice kavanaugh? you are not part of a political club? cuomo has been in politics three decades, he worked in the clinton administration, his father was a three term governor of the state of new york. now, cuomo might be the president of the political club. cuomo's claims about cancel culture, yeah, that would be more hypocrisy, considering, as
10:06 pm
we just pointed out, he was one of the biggest i-believers in the country, never offered due process to kavanaugh, never offered it to eric schneiderman as attorney general. why not hold himself to the same standards? well, we will let you figure that out. while cuomo hopes to ride this all out, i believe this is probably now going to be the end ou of the road for cuomo's political career. this isn't just about the serious sexual misconduct allegations -- and they are serious.nd we are talking about seven separate women now. mistreatment of his employees, bullying, harassment of, yes, even new york democrats or his ramp it #metoo hypocrisy. the fact of his his insane directive on nursing homes that led to the deaths of countless new yorkers during the height of the covid-19 tragedy about a year ago, when new york needed leadership, cuomo panic like the weak, frankly, pathetic politician that he is, lashed out at everybody and took great
10:07 pm
accolades from everyone whenever he could. instead of being honest when they found out in june that the late march executive order was failing and we had 9,000 deaths, when he could have made a course correction, they decided to cover up exactly what they had been doing, and sadly, cuomo now embodies everything americans hate about politicians..xa corrupt, dishonest, hypocritical, entitled, you can put whatever adjectives you like.th here with reaction, fox news contributor lisa boothe, new york congressman lee zeldin, fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett, congressmanox matt gaetz. good to see you all. let's get to the legal side, gregg jarrett. let's start there tonight. legal liability on all of these issues? >> yeah, cuomo is in serious legal jeopardy, criminal jeopardy. he seems to be preoccupied with holding onto the reins of power when he should be concerned about criminal charges and the possibility of prison. under new york law, it is a
10:08 pm
crime to grope or fondle the intimate parts of another person without consent, against their will. called forcible touching. it is a serious crime. it is also the crime of harassment. so,e, you know, andrew cuomo should be concerned about his legal future. politically, though, he has no friends, no allies because he has always governed as a bully and a political thug to menace people with threats, intimidation, and retaliation. people capitulated out of fear, but they don't fear him anymore, sean, they view him as powerless, weak, vulnerable, and impotent. people aren't even returning his telephone calls anymore. he's in the first two stages of grief, denial and anger. it will take a while to get to acceptance. >> sean: now, lee zeldin, you do know that new york has a very interesting twist as it relates
10:09 pm
to impeachment, because we now have, in terms of numbers, there would be enough members of the assembly that have said that he should be out of office, that would vote to impeach him. if that were to happen, he would have to step down temporarily, while a senate trial was going on in new york state. different from the impeachment, for example, that we watched with president trump. >> yeah, that's right., that is a key difference. lieutenant governor kathy hochul would become the active and governor during that time, soon as there impeachment. the numbers are there already, and it has been happening throughout the day today. it was interesting that it requires a fifth or sixth or seventh accuser to come forward. when i was getting asked about resignation, i was thinking of the nursing home directive and the cover-up, and i thought thousands of dead new york seniors and the cover-up and bullying, that that would be
10:10 pm
enough to get the governor to resign. i watch the governor's press conference earlier today, listened to it, it was a train wreck, essentially going after the accusers as being liars. if you believe the victims as liars, and if you believe the victims, he will go after you, too. he is doubling down, tripling down on the same character flaws that got himself into this trouble in the first place. i agreepl with you. this is the end of governor cuomo's political career.ctla i don't think it is months, i think it is days or weeks at this point. >> sean: lisa, let me go to the credibility of the seven women here. i'm sure you watched the interview on cbs, the corroboration with the text messages in real time that she was sending out to a very close friend of hers. that was pretty compelling to me. i never thought republicans particularly handle issueses the rightt way, but i did feel, in the case of justice kavanaugh,
10:11 pm
republicans got it right. there were charges made, there was an investigation that went forward, there were public hearings, andar for example, americans got to decide on what they thought about julie swetnick, for example. my question to you is, how best to handle moments like this? >> well, i think we need to look at the evidence. we need to hear out the accusers, but look to see if there's any corroborating evidence, corroborating witnesses, and here you have it, with kavanaugh you didn't. with brett kavanaugh, the evidence worked against his accusers when you had christine ford's childhood best friend coming forward and saying i don't remember any party like this, the party in question, later saying to the fbi that she felt pressured by christine ford and her friends to change her original story. quite the opposite of what we inhave a governor cuomo. but look, sean, i worked in politics for a while. i worked on capitol hill and political campaigns for a number of years, so i am cynical, i ame jaded when it comes to politics. democrats don't care about the
10:12 pm
allegations made from these women. they don't care at all. kamala harris said she believed biden's accusers, and then signed up to be his vp. it is about to go things for democrats, opportunity for the progressives in the state who want to take out governor cuomo and put a progressive and the governor's mansion, and secondly, it is about a distraction, and a distraction from the fact that democrats have failed in their response to covid. you look at the two kings, governor newsom and california are probably going to get recalled, and governor cuomo facing a federal investigation for killing at least 15,000 seniors with his failed policies, and then trying to cover it up. so that is what they are trying to distract from, and that is why they are coming forward with the sexual harassment stuff, while completely ignoring the real scandal, which is the nursing home scandal. >> sean: two fascinating things, congressman gaetz, in this case, to me. they might claim, oh, guys like hannity -- republicans in new york state, democrats have a vetoproof majority in the
10:13 pm
assembly and in the senate.ne republicans have no power in the state. fascinating that this is all democratic party driven. i think you've got a couple things going on at once. what is your take on the political side of this, with democrats, now many of them, a little too late for the i-believer caucus, it took them a long time to apply these standards to cuomo that they were applying to kavanaugh. what do you make of the democrats wanting him out here? >> the new york democratic party seems to be going after each other more than the royal family, at this point. it's not good, as a new york democrat, when you lose schumer, when you lose aoc, when you even lose jerry nadler, for goodness sake. i'm glad you have been consistent on this show. we don't believe in guilt by accusation, a great book by professor alan dershowitz, and just the volume of accusers alone should not substitute for
10:14 pm
that needed due process. and you have to wonder, why is this happening now? i think it is because the media no longer needs to protect governor cuomo, because they no longer need governor cuomo. they were trying to smear president trump, the person who brought us a vaccine twice as fast as had ever happened in the history of the world, and they needed the strong counterpoint against trump. well, they couldn't use joe biden because he was at naptime in the basement, so they built cuomo up like the great oracle of response to the coronavirus, when the reality is, lisa is exactly right. killing 15,000 people in the state of new york should be impeachable. that should result in true investigations, and it certainly makes my governor, ron desantis, look a lot more like a leader because he made decisions based on science, not emotion or impulse. the governor of new york should not be andrew cuomo, it should be someone on this panel, myot goodo, friend, lee zeldin. >> sean: is that an endorsement? maybe you can move to new york -- >> absolutely.
10:15 pm
>> sean: i will tell you another thing florida did really well compared to new york, so did texas, so did mississippi and all these other red states, the worst states, oh, new york, new jersey, pennsylvania, michigan -- by the way, now whitmer might be facing charges, and newsom in california. interesting to see the philosophical differences and the impact it had one year later. all right, thank you all. congressman zeldin, lisa boothe, gregg jarrett, matt gaetz, thank you all. we turn our attention to the frail, cognitivelyn struggling man who is supposed to be running this country. today, joe biden sauntered to the rose garden for his daily afternoon event, he has about one on his schedule a day, spoke with the help of a nice big teleprompter, took zero ntquestions, and just spent $2 trillion of your money, but has no time to address any of your concerns. it is now 51 days, and no
10:16 pm
official press conference, and i think we all know why joe rarely takesno any questions. it's been pretty obvious just the last three weeks alone. no script, joe struggles. here are some of the worst moments of him, just the past seven days. take a a look. >> the vast majority of economists, left, right, and center, from wall street to the -- to the private... economic polling initiatives. >> i want to think the former general, keep calling him general, my -- the guy who runs that outfit over there. [indistinct] >> we are going to move out, let's go. >> thank you all, appreciate it. >> thank you very much. >> let's go. thank s you.
10:17 pm
>> sean: all right, so what is going on here? were joining us with more, former senior advisor to president trump, stephen miller is with us. i watch the last few weeks and is frankly uncomfortable, but we are talking about, imp believe, the hardest job in the world. we need a president that is strong, that has mental alertness, mental acuity, physical stamina, for the demands of the job. you were with donald trump all four years. do you see a difference, as i do, a difference between joe circa 2012, and today? >> he's not the same person. he is not even a shadow of the person he used to be. if you watch the address he gave last night, sean, it was painful to watch and read through it. i mean, he barely was able to make it through.e it was so dour, so gloomy, so sullen, there was no energy.
10:18 pm
he was trying to rally the country. that speech wouldn't even get you enough energy to walk down a flight of stairs. i mean, there was no enthusiasm in its. this is supposed to be a big moment, to get the country rallied, to kill the virus, to end a pandemic, and the speech but you to sleep. and on top of that, there was one passage in the speech that shows how profoundly disconnected joe biden is from reality. biden said in the speech that it we all get vaccinated, if we do everythingd right, if we wear a mask and keep the economy closed down, then maybe, just maybe, by july 4th, we can have dinner in our own backyards with our own family members? does joe really not know, is he so out of touch, he doesn't know that families have been dining with each other and with their loved ones for months now? does hee not know that? >> sean: let me ask you about the process, because i have known donald trump for over 25 years.
10:19 pm
he has more energy than probably 100 average people, i've never seen anything like it. i know you dealt with it. you were his chief speechwriter. tell me if my observation was correct, that he would give you the speech, he would dictate it, basically, and then you would craft it, put it all together, and throughout that process, oh, i want you to add this, take this out, put this income adds that, and then when he actually gave a speech, hardest job for anybody in the white house was running a teleprompter because he never stayed on script. true or false? >> it's completely true. donald trump was intimately involved in every word, every sentence, every phrasing, in every speech that he gave. he owned it. every part of donald trump's personality and vision was exuding from his speeches that
10:20 pm
he was giving. by contrast, when you hear joe biden talk, what do you here at home? you hear his young progressive aides. you don't hear joe biden, you hear the people behind the curtain. that is the fundamental issue, sean. that is the public health issue, the national security issue. that is the economic security issue.th who are the young progressive aides that are pushing all of these crazy policies? for example, take the teachers union. why doesn't joe biden stand up last night to teachers unions and say open our schools now? because the people working for joe biden don't want that t to happen. so he is not the one making the decisions. that is deeply alarming, sean. >> sean: all right, stephen miller, thank you. thanks for being with us. when we come back, we will have a lot more on tonight's big breaking news. growing calls for andrew cuomo to step down. jerry nadler, congresswoman ocasio-cortez, schumer, gillibrand, not looking good for him tonight. plus, it appears democrats are trying to actually steal a house

only won on election day, she is the duly elected congresswoman, she also won the recount, she is certified, she is serving, on the vet committee, as well, she has offered an amendment against that covid builds to help the vets, the democrats voted against it. what is really happening here, sean, democrats have the smallest majority in their history in the last 100 years, only five seats, so every they can steal helps them, helps them be able to pass the most socialiste things they can. they've done this before, back in 1984, they call it the bloody eight, indiana eight, and that is exactly what pelosi is trying to do. go to takethehouse.com. we have to fight back. we cannot allow them to steal something that has a recount and certified. that is exactly what they were trying to do this week. >> sean: we all know the disaster that is hr 1. we have gone over it in great specificity and detail on this show.est we know the disaster that is the $1.9 trillion boondoggle, only

10:30 pm
but i thought they handled the kavanaugh case properly. they took it seriously. they had a public -- they had public hearings. they had witnesses. people heard from professor ford. they heard julie swetnick allegations, et cetera. and a determination was made. right away, though, democrats were out there, oh, i believe, i believe, i believe,io i believe. it took seven women, in the case of andrew cuomo, to get to where we are now, where we are at tonight. my question to you is, that, to me, is a breathtaking double standard, and massive hypocrisye >> massive hypocrisy, but even scarier about this is the actions taken by governor cuomo's staff, as the women have come forward, trying to demonize and dig up dirt on them. that is not in the past, that is currently trying to do this. i think the democrats need to move forward with that impeachment and have that trial. that is due process. let's have that h trial.

he has caused what is now, yes, a crisis, as, yes, thousands and thousands of migrants, illegal immigrants, flocking to the border, undocumented, with covid, by the way, and they are being released into american communities. facilities used house migrants are operating beyond capacity in the middle of a pandemic. seems to be no end in sight. no social distancing, and i don't see a whole lot of mask wearing, either. that's not a crisis? here with the reaction is host of "lara logan no agenda" on foxnation.com and texas lieutenant governor dan patrick. let's start with the news, lara. 100,000, 30,000 kids, now we have cargo shipping containers that they are putting kids in, they won't let any television cameras in, but we are told they are butterflies on the walls. i would like to see the butterflies. how many kids are in the cargo shipping containers? why are they hiding it from all of us?go >> they are not just hiding that
10:39 pm
part of it, sean, they are hiding it all along the way, and i was just talking to a few people in law enforcement and agents down at the border, and this is their take. they said, why would the administration call it a crisis when it was planned? because they know, and i was following this in real time, with a number of different sources, they were told from the moment that biden came into office that they were going to shift from a border security mission to a migrant care mission. they were told that specialnd units would be shut down, and some of them have, like the bicycle units. they were told agents would beer taken off the line and taken off security patrols to process and take care of immigrants, and that is exactly what has happened, and they have just been told that in the midst of these numbers, they are now, the biden administration, from hemonday, is going to start processing all of the people who were returned to mexico under the previous administration,
10:40 pm
remain in mexico program. so according to reported figures, that was about 65,000 people that were returned by the administration to wait for their asylum claims to be heard, but to wait inside mexico, not within the borders of the u.s. so as of f monday, if this administration was concerned about the numbers and considered this to be af crisis, they would not be opening up another avenue for more people to be coming in, and to t have their claims now process -- they are going to wait for their claims here. i was told they were going to do them in groups of about 25 at a time, around a hundred a day, oialthough agents have been told to expect those numbers to go up, and that the mexican government is going to be testing them for covid. so one question that has to be asked of the biden administration is who is going to pay for that testing of all of these people? and also, sean, i would justst say, that number that you cited for unaccompanied minors, what many people have missed is that thatat number is on a pause.
10:41 pm
in five months of this fiscal year, with the whole of last fiscal year, and we have p not gotten to the point, if you follow the migration passes on the border, and the summer months, they go way up, so come april, you are going t to see me and more people coming across, and even without the summer migration patterns, we are on track for a hundred thousand unaccompanied minors just this year alone. >> sean: wow. lieutenant governor, we have the unaccompanied minors. we can't see the cargo shipping containers. i would like to see it. remember, it was biden and obama that built the cages and put the kids in the cages, and not donald trump. donald trump stopped that program. the covid positivity rate overall in texas was as high as, and one town, near brownsville, in that sector, it was as high as 25%? that's true? >> yeah, well, we don't know the
10:42 pm
exact numbers, sean, but higher than our general population. and the fact they are putting them on buses and sending them anywhere in the country that we do not know flies in the face om anything the biden administration has to say to american citizens about what we do to protect ourselves from covid. they are just letting them into the country. there is no social distancing. there is no care about them being in our cities across this country.o they just don't care about that. let me tell you some numbers, sean. in 2004, the chamber of commerce said -- we apprehended -- that's over a million a year, sean, so since 2004 we are up to close to 30 million. this year alone, sean, just in the last month, we have gone from apprehending 11,000 a week in texas to 22,000 and we can texas, so we are on par to apprehend, this year, close to a million immigrants coming across this country.
10:43 pm
many children. a lot of single adults, though, sean. if we catch one out of every four, that means that is maybe 3-4 million alone this year, sean, coming into texas. this is an intentionally designed disaster, intentional by the obama administration. >> sean: unbelievable. all right, thank you both. joe biden still has not held a press conference. it's 51 days. yet the media keeps finding ways to fawn all over him. we will have the very latest. and andrew cuomo,di is he on the verge of resigning? straight ahead. ♪ ♪ ahead. ♪ ♪ - hello, friends. michael youssef here. you know, the right says that christ was conservative. the left says christ was radical, but christ is the creator, god in human flesh, and he's the only one who can give you peace, and he wants to give you that peace, eternal peace. will you come to him? - [woman] are you looking for peace

to facts, in terms of mr. biden speech, because it is amazing how many misleadinger statements this speechwriter made in that particular speech. as you said, this is not teleprompter, not joe biden extemporaneous, off the cuff. first, biden said, "i said a goal that many of you said was kind of way over the top, i said i intended to get 100 million shots in people's arms and my first 100 days of office." not a person on the planet said that was way over the top because we were already givingwe that many doses per day to get to 100 million doses, so that's not a gaffe, that is my number one. number two. biden said one year -- he said covid hit one year ago, and ithi was "met with silence." okay, so the china travel ban that was enacted in january, that was silent. the european travel ban, thatna was silent. the uss comfort went on autopilot and found its way to new york harbor to assist governor cuomo, or the javits center that opened up a

threshold of over 50%. if he is impeached, he would have to resign while the senate trial is going on -- not resign, you have to step aside and let the lieutenant governor take over his duties. as this now hitno critical massr does he stand his ground and not resign? >> well, the numbers tell the story, right? now that the majority is there, the numbers are there to impeach, it's like what nixon was looking at in 1974 when some republicans are joining democrats in terms of the impeachment effort ofng him ande said, you know what, i'm not getting those votes back in terms of acquittal so i'm going to leave on my own terms. he has no option because b he ds not have democrats or the media that for so long, all of 2020, that led to him getting any -- all of that praise, to the point of people talking about him replacing joe biden at the top of the presidential ticket, that has all changed now. he has no allies in new york. what i want to know, sean, is where is vice president kamala harris.ie
