came here with courage for a better life. they sailed across the atlantic and pushed west and risked getting scalped and started businesses. we drilled holes in the ground. we were risktakers, entrepreneurs and frontiersmen. from manifest destiny to normandy we were never paralyzed by fear. hopefully with that foundation and spirit we can all still understand what is unique and celebratory about america. have a good evening. bravo and thank you everyone for tuning in. welcome to the special edition of "hannity". i am tammy bruce in for sean. it's the night before our nation's 247th birthday and aren't we lucky. truly the best nation on earth. america's leader is nowhere to be found. president biden is at camp david tonight on vacation as he is most weekends. he has not been seen or heard from in days. one of his major promises which is struck down by the supreme

court as blatantly unconstitutional and now some of the presidents own allies are asking whether he is really ready for another four years in office. welcome to the club. can you blame them? after what we all see from joe day in and day out, here is a reminder. 3 mr. president, thank you. >> thank you, thank you. >> don't go anywhere. it's an exciting day around here. we will have reaction. >> just he and i in a simultaneous interpreter 68 times. 68 hours. more than 68 hours. >> all right, god save the queen, man. ♪ music playing ♪ >> thank you very much, mr. president. we love you. thank you. >> i might add if i didn't i would be sleeping alone. i better explained that.

my wife is a philly girl. where are we going? >> we have plans to build a railroad from the pacific all the way across the indian ocean. >> by the way, i met with those guys that fly over. you have heard of them, haven't you? >> i'm trying to remember the last place i was. it is hard to keep track. you are right, ireland. that's where it was. >> the toddler had to help. even some of the mainstream media are now calling for a real examination of bite and's health or at the very least an actual democratic presidential primary. the dnc has other ideas. here's one of biden's few challengers that told fox earlier today. >> the traditional role of the political parties is to stay in the background until the voters have weighed in and once the voters weight in the political party comes in. it is kind of outrageous how overt they are about absolutely

admitting that they are doing what they can in the primary season to support the president. even insofar as contacting high school groups of young democrats and telling them they are not to engage with any candidate other than the president. that is against their own bylaws. it is just against democratic principal. those of us who are running should be heard. it's not even what we deserve, those of us running. it's what the people deserve and what the voters deserve. >> good for her. another potential biden challenger is california governor gavin newsom. it appears to be running a shadow campaign right now under the guise of fundraising for joe waiting in the wings should anything cause the president to stumble. and don't forget of course about the surging of robert f. kennedy jr. of course there is another side to this election. there always is. the republican primary. where former president donald trump holds a commanding lead.

i think that is an understatement. not only in spite of the legal challenges he faces, but in part because it them. the chief of police in the south carolina town where trump held his latest rally estimates that over 50,000 people who were in attendance. take a look at this. >> hello, pickens and hello to south carolina. it is great to be with you. we have had great success together. i don't know if you know it, but those crowds are going all the way back into whatever the hell street you have back there. under crooked joe biden millions and millions of illegal aliens are streaming across our border. main street is being crushed by catastrophic inflation. our constitution is being ripped to shreds. our children are being taught to hate our great heroes. hate them. you are going to hate abraham lincoln and hate george washington. men are competing in women's

sports. how about that one? murderers, gang members and bloodthirsty killers are being set loose on innocent people and joe biden is stumbling us into the brink of world war iii because he has no idea what the hell he is doing. >> that certainly looks familiar, doesn't it? all of this is very bad news for biden. in 2016 and 2020 donald trump won voters who had a poor opinion of both candidates by double digits. now with biden's record of failure hurting americans every day his age advancing and his gas growing and his historic unpopularity being constant, he could be in serious trouble in november 2024. that is coming up. it is around the bend. joining me you are fox news medical contributor dr. nicole safire, former bill clinton

advisor, but we forgive you, and princeton university political scientists lauren wright. let me start with you. i worked on the clinton campaign in '92. you might poke me back here. we are looking at some things that look very familiar to us from 2016. we know about the numbers then. we didn't have as much information necessarily about joe biden, but isn't the other issue also the fact that it might not be joe biden. wouldn't it be smart for trump and the american people to consider this might be a race that we don't expect? >> well, it's possible, tammy. but everything i am hearing publicly and privately tells me that joe biden wants to run and as of this moment will be the candidate. that being said, elections tend to be referenda on the incumbent. joe biden's numbers as i think you know, tammy, are at or below 40% and below 35% on the

economy. so, trump has a narrow lead in the real clear politics. the scenario you paint of him winning as the lesser of two evils is certainly possible given the administration's ratings and where we stand now. >> i personally don't see them as the lesser of two evils. a lot of americans will and you will make a decision based on i think who will do the best job. in this case, lauren, great to see you. when we think about the science of a political campaign, trump surprised everyone in '16. he was not an unknown but he was in this environment. he is now known and we know what he accomplished. joe biden is not what he presented himself to be in 2020. he is clearly very different than what people expected. would you think that is going to

affect people? do people think they were tricked when they voted in 2020? >> well, look, it was a big unknown in 2016 and that was trump's benefit. in 2020, which i think is more relevant, trump had all of the trappings of an incumbent president. he had all of those tools, and even more of his ability than when he ran as a celebrity and couldn't get the job done. i think trump is perhaps the only republican that biden can soundly beat. these other candidates, i just don't sea getting to the threshold. rfk, while i would love to see him debate biden as a political junkie isn't anywhere near the threshold he needs to be. the dnc said they are not letting him on the debate stage. marianne williamson, opera's spiritual advisor, i don't think she will get it over the line. we are forgetting the fact that biden's own vice president

harris is not even part of the conversation because she is very vulnerable and unpopular. who would it be? someone he either beat in 2020? i don't know. but trump is the weakest person he has got. that is who democrats are sincerely hoping will be the nominee and likely will be. >> dr. nicole, i think they also thought he was particularly weak in 2016. he wasn't taken seriously. there has always been an underestimation of him. the difference now, i think, though, is that joe biden hid in the basement. we were not aware necessarily of his cognitive situation. we now have seen that every day at least when he is out and about. do you think that is a factor that americans are looking at with the president, which he literally was hidden away from us? i don't think that will. this time. i think the american people are

concerned about the democrats and a majority that don't want him to run again. will that be a factor? >> tammy, listen, he campaigned from the basement during the pandemic. he is doing the same method now. we are not seeing him much. that is why donald trump continues to poll so well. he is always upfront and takes questions from the media. he is really an open book. there are a lot of presidents preceding president biden who had health maladies that people worried would impact whether they could be president or not. obviously they did find. the growing concern when it comes to president biden is whether or not he has the cognitive or mental ability to have another four years as commander-in-chief. some of the most common signs of cognitive decline are losing direction. maybe he doesn't know which way to go offstage. but also losing words when he is speaking and forgetting certain events. who could forget last year when he forgot congresswoman jackie had past when he was looking for her and the audience a few weeks

after her death. none of this confirms a diagnosis of cognitive decline, but there are questions to be asked. the alzheimer's association pulled all of the primary care physicians, 97% say that you have to have cognitive evaluation starting at the age of 65. he had here we are with president biden and in his physical exams we don't have complete causative assessments. if he wants the votes from americans they will be prudent for the white house to prove his physical fitness and his mental fitness because that seems to be where the concern is. >> doug, we see also in that list when it comes to trump's issues, they say he is over 50% you have desantis around 22%. people expected more from desantis. it is interesting that this is what the campaigns are for. you find out what people are made of, whether or not they know who there. the questions have to be asked. there are debates. is there any sign that desantis

is having any kind of impact or that his numbers might be moving when it comes to the end result of who would be the nominee? no? >> there is no sign of him moving. the opposite. he seems mired at about 21 or 22. he will spend an enormous amount, tammy, in iowa and new hampshire, two states where he pulls relatively better than he does nationally. but still trails former president trump by 20 points. these are tough, tough margins to make up both in those 21st primary states and nationally. donald trump is the odds on favorite as we sit here today. >> thank you for tonight. just before independence day, it is interesting that the democrats of course don't want to have any debate. lauren, i will give you the last

word here. we have this huge lineup in the republican end. do you think all those people being on the republican nomination will have any impact on trump's numbers? >> it will help him. every time a republican jumps into this race, the field gets larger, more difficult to distinguish among. that helps trump. but look, i don't think his numbers have changed for many months now despite these indictments. he has kept this core level of support. it has been in the 50s since before the stormy daniels indictment, then the documents indictment. these are people that don't see a clear alternative and know and love trump already. it is not necessarily a sign that his legal troubles are helping and energizing. it is just a sign that he is a figurehead of the party and they have not provided an alternative as you said.

ron desantis has not turned out to be that clear front runner. >> all of you, thank you very much. it will be an interesting 18 months leading into this. at the same time, i have to say that americans, he was kind of elected, trump was, on the issue of a two-tiered system of justice. now it seems to be playing out in front of people. we have a lot of time to figure it out. thank you all. adding to present biden's many struggles are the well-documented misdeeds of his son hunter. yet all of the biden family resources have been seemingly marshaled to make that record disappear. one of hunter's high-priced attorneys is now slamming the irs whistleblower who alleges hunter got special treatment from the feds as quote, disgruntled. he says the allegations are, you guessed it, a misinformation campaign. hunter has conveniently settled his child support case in arkansas and gotten his daughter's mother to drop her effort to make the girls last

name biden. what a jerk. so joe and jill continue to ignore their seventh grandchild. who does that? just as they reportedly told their staff to do. but of course the first couple has always lead by example. here's a reminder of that. >> my name is jill and this is my husband joe. your children may not know, but we have three children and we have six grandchildren. >> i have six grandchildren. i am crazy about them. i speak to them every single day. not a joke. guess what? they are crazy about me. because i pay so much attention to them. >> while. here with reaction, i think they might have some, fox news contributors leo terrel and maranda devine. maranda, thank you for joining me. you are with the new york post. on top of this hunter biden story, it was so threatening

that it was stopped by the fbi with social media. it was damaging. we now know after the election that a single digit percentage was maybe 6% or 7% of biden voters said that would have affected their vote if they had known. isn't this also about character? about the nature of who people are, which then informs how they look and view us? if you are going to ignore your seventh grandchild as a non-entity, what do you think they think of all of us strangers who aren't even related to them? >> that is quite an insightful point, tammy, because what we have seen with joe biden as a politician is that he is built for half a century this mythology around himself which is modeled on the kennedy clan. he is a devout catholic and a family man and that family is

everything to him. i think there are lots of holes in that mythology now. we have seen who he really is. we have seen his character. it is not just in his involvement in lying about his involvement in his family's influence peddling scheme, but it's also in the small glimpses we have into his actual family life. i think the fact that he and jill biden ignore the seventh grandchild, i know she was born in different circumstances. hunter claimed he couldn't remember the relationship with the mother even though it went on for several months. i think the little girl deserves some sort of acknowledgment. >> certainly she deserves better. the country deserves better when it comes to role models. leo, we have a dynamic and we get caught up as people who care about politics and everything.

but it's about individual people that we vote for who present themselves in a certain way. we see it with gavin newsom. we see it with really everybody that is why in part trump has been so appealing. we have known him, all the good and bad, and that alone was kind of shocking that you knew who you had. to this day, he is the same guy. all of what matters to us when it comes to policy, isn't this just shocking, not just on the political end but because of the political nature? i am the product of an affair. every person born matters. the argument for the pro-life community is before you are born you matter as well. doesn't this show you everyone the hypocrisy and the lies that really imbue this entire family? >> absolutely. joe biden does not have a moral compass, tammy. he loves power and control. that's why he's been a

politician for 50 years. he places the minutes criminal misconduct of his son over the interest of the american people. hunter biden is a political liability and immoral liability to this country and yet joe biden has use the power of the federal government to protect his son. not to protect the american people, but to protect his son. you have got 95% of the left-wing media protecting joe biden and the misconduct of his son. tammy, maranda, if hunter biden's name was trump he would be facing a multitude of felony charges and hundreds of years in jail. but hunter biden has high-powered attorneys. one final point. the current impeachment trial potentially against biden, against merrick garland, against christopher wray, is in part due to hunter biden's misconduct and joe biden's never ending attempt

to cover up for his son. >> excellent point. maranda, people say it is him supporting hunter which what makes him a great dad. wouldn't that have been the case before all of this happened and that you weren't engaging with deals with china are allegedly so with your son who now argues that he was too high on crack to know what he was doing? isn't that where a father's love first comes in? even supporting your son without having him be in front with the american people? isn't that where it is supposed to work? >> i have no doubt that joe biden does love his son. and a parent wants to protect their child. but in joe biden's case, i think you have to really question a father who puts his addicted son in front of all this unaccountable cash. he made hunter the bad man for the family. he knew what was going on.

hunter himself has admitted that it was the money from burisma, the $83,000 a month that was flooding and that was too much of a temptation and he fell off the wagon. he struggled in his life and i think most americans would wish him the best in his recovery. but i think that joe biden has really perverted the course of justice when it comes to the fbi, the cia and the federal government. >> great point. all because of character and the lack thereof. leo and maranda, thank you very much. you won't believe what aoc is saying about the supreme court. we will have reaction next on this special train edition of "hannity".

welcome back to the special edition of hannity. the supreme court issued the final rulings of its term last week and don't we know it causing several liberal meltdowns in the process. the court's decision to end race-based affirmative action in college decisions did not go over well with the left. here is what aoc is now saying should happen to the court in retaliation. >> the supreme court is far overreaching their authority and i believe frankly that we need to be having conversations about judicial review as a check on the courts as well. there also must be impeachment on the table. we have a broad level of tools to deal with misconduct, overreach and abuse of power. the supreme court has not been receiving the adequate oversight necessary in order to preserve their own legitimacy. in the process they themselves

have been destroying the legitimacy of the court. >> over on msnbc joy reed mourned the loss of what she openly claims is the only thing that got her into harvard. take a look. >> let me just be clear. i got into harvard only because of affirmative action. i went to a school no one had heard of in denver, colorado in a small suburb. i didn't go to exit or or and over. i happen to be nerdy and smart and have good grades and good sat scores. someone came to denver, colorado to look for me. a harvard recruiter flew to denver and i met with her at the village and restaurant and did a pre-interview to pull me into harvard. i was pulled in. the school i got into affirmatively. >> there you go. some on the left are even fighting back. harvard is now facing a civil rights complaint from left-wing groups over it's legacy admissions process which they claim unfairly advantages white students.

and more lawsuits could be coming. former senior adviser to president trump stephen miller sent a letter to the deans of 200 law schools around the country warning them that he will file suit if they continue to consider race in the admissions process. stephen miller joins me now a long with author of the new book trial of the century gregg jarrett and host of the just listen to yourself podcast, our friend keira davis. thank you all for joining me on this day before independence day. what a great time to talk about the condition the country is in. let me start with stephen. we know that the universities and colleges are just not going to give up. they will find another way to do this. the uc davis medical school seems to be a template for them in some way in that they have a template regarding people who are disadvantaged. and that kind of moves you right to the front. and of course the presumption is there that that will bring in the people may be who are people

of color, but certainly perhaps who are more inclined to move along the leftist agenda, et cetera. is this going to stop or will it take more lawsuits and will it be a big problem? >> everything you said, tammy, is completely correct. uc davis as an example uses a disadvantage score. they prioritize applicants who say they have experienced disadvantages but they are using it as a proxy for race to achieving racial balancing tests. as you are going to see, because the left has no respect for the supreme court. you heard the quote from aoc. what the universities will do is put all these proxy tests, all of these pretests and what they are trying to achieve the same racial balance to keep poor whites out and keep asians out and to try to have an artificial racial lens far admissions. that is illegal. that is unconstitutional.

the supreme court held that is illegal and unconstitutional. my organization sent a warning letter to every single law school in america and next we will do medical schools and after that we will do undergraduate schools. we said if you continue to use a racial balancing test, by hook or crook or any means to try to stack the deck towards one race in admissions, then we are going to take you to court. in this country it doesn't matter what your skin color is. racial bigotry is wrong. >> you know, it also relies, especially the disadvantaged template, relies on that being maintained. that if you are only able to get into college because you have been disadvantaged in various elements of society, there is then an incentive to be disadvantaged. which is a horrible dynamic. greg, we have got here, especially with aoc, it is

interesting that he wants to do impeachment and everything. there are a number of decisions from the supreme court that the left like to. like on immigration. we did not hear them complaining about how horrible the supreme court was when they got the decisions they like to. is this what we are hearing from the left? does she have any credibility when she is calling for impeachment or anything else? >> no. aoc should do something novel and actually read the constitution because her criticism is uninformed. it is the core duty of the supreme court under article three to decide whether constitutional rights are being violated. that is exactly what the high court did in all three cases decided this week. disliking the result does not make it an abuse of power as she claims. indeed, it is the opposite. the justices halted an abuse of

power that transgressed the rights of citizens under the first amendment, the 14th amendment, the article 2 duty of congress to tax and spend and the lone forgiveness decision. aoc is arguing against herself. only congress holds the power of the purse, not the president. he cannot act unilaterally by executive fiat. but ocasio-cortez and other democrats seem all too willing to give up their own authority and relative to handed over to joe biden. that is not how our constitution is written. >> curo, a lot of people don't know that and a lot of people as a direct result of the left controlling the system for a couple of generations creating a kind of ignorance that allows them. it is very clever. it allows them to keep people and make claims that are not true and to just gin people up. your activism as a mom and in your town has also been based in

education. you have seen what has been going on at the local level. is this the kind of thing that people understand? all we hear is that this is racism. you want to keep people out. these decisions are classical liberal decisions about freedom of expression, about not using race. which means we would then have to go to the root cause of why sat scores for young people of color are lower than the sat scores for whites. but they don't want to do that, do they? >> no, quite obviously, we have seen that even with what has happened over the last three years with covid how so many education departments including the federal department don't want to release education numbers and the results because they know they were wrong and that is what it will show. it is so much easier to say look at what the evil republicans are doing. this is racism. black people will never be able to achieve anything because we can't achieve anything unless we have our white saviors on the

lot for us. that is easier to say and it makes a great headline. it is shareable on tiktok but it's way outside of reality. what do we expect young people like david hogg who tweeted that it's not fair that a million people get to decide who the scotus is for 30 million people? a complete misunderstanding of the electoral college. but we are building ignorant minds and that is because those are the people who will be susceptible to hysterics like we are seeing coming from aoc. what she said is so incredibly ignorant and ridiculous. and is sad that she is a representative in the united states government. that is the generation being built by the public education system and aided by the progressive media. we need to reeducate are kids towards patriotism. that is how we orient them towards patriotism, so we don't have these panic headlines to

understand what happen. the supreme court is not discriminating. the supreme court is removing discrimination. >> great points, curo. stephen, your work, when we think about the lives that are ruined when someone is being ushered through the university system and can't do it, doesn't understand how to do it, and then there is chaos in personal lives because you want your money back on school loans. it's like they got a lemon. this is about saving lives of the people that have been relying on democrat policy for 50 years now. >> let's be very clear about something. everybody is worse off as a result of the racialized race-based admissions process we have in universities. when the university admits a student of any race that is not a match for the particular academic policies of that university, the academic level of that university you have

higher dropout rates. you have worse academic performance and worse professional performance as a result of that. rather than having the goal of matching the student to the institution. then you have students who sacrifice and don't get into the school they deserve. what does that dew? it tells other students not to sacrifice. everyone loses. to macura davis, i want you to be the education secretary for whoever the next republican president will be. we have to get to the root cause about what is going on with our public schools. thank you very much. when we come back, flood light is still paying the price for its embrace of woke ideology. we will have the latest. jackie and detroit join us next when the special addition of hannity comes back.

welcome back to the special edition of "hannity". im tammy bruce. there are no boundaries to the left's woke up session with the former bryden press secretary claiming republicans are trying to pit muslims and transgender individuals against each other. watch this. >> hear me out. the gop is trying to recruit muslim americans, a community that makes up less than 2% of the u.s. population against another tiny marginalized group of americans, transgender people. >> there you go. a director of the religious freedom institute is telling foxnews.com that those remarks are insulting to muslims. it is not just politics. going woke continues to have major financial consequences. just ask bud light. its sales are reportedly down nearly 30% amid the dylan mulvaney controversy. it doesn't look like they are going to be rebounding any time soon.

foxnews.com recently spoke to kid rock concertgoers in nashville. that was fun. many are saying no when it comes to bud light. watch this. to neck what bare drink? >> anything but bud light. >> i don't care. >> no bud light. >> say know to bud light. >> no bud light. >> not here. >> i love us. not everyone on the left is lost. comedian bill martin a message for his woke former fans. watch. >> i've lost a fair number of this, what i would call the super woke. it is good. don't let the door hit you. you are no fun to begin with. >> he doesn't mince words. here with the reaction is cohost of the big-money show on foxbusiness, jackie deangelis and fox news contributor to roy murdoch. thank you for joining me on this independence day eve jackie, let me stocked with you.

all of what we see there, we have reaction when it comes to a boycott. something that you can do and still do it anonymously. i think this is less a statement about transgender individuals and more of a statement of americans being exhausted with all the politics and the manipulations that are involved. what is your take on that? >> that's a great point, tammy. remembered the american consumer represents two thirds of the american economy. there is a lot of power to the purse. in the case of anheuser-busch and bud light the consumer has been speaking out. not only are sales down, we can track that to the turn to know of roughly 30%. stock is down $20 billion. if that doesn't speak volumes i don't know what would. now you are seeing some of the folks at the bottlers that work for bud light are being laid off to the tune of 600 some odd people. do you think those employees

were part of this messaging? they have to suffer as a result of the backlash from it. if we have learned anything from anheuser-busch, target, larry fink at black rock, politics and business don't mix. until corporation start to understand that, they will feel the pinch from it. bill maher gets it. he realizes that speaking to the radical left is a small marginal fractional part of the population. he is speaking to a bigger group. if you don't want to watch me, don't watch. you are a small piece of the pie. he is bringing conservatives on board. >> we saw that with netflix in the beginning. they told their staff before a lot of people got laid off that if you are offended by material or information that you don't agree with, this might not be the place for you. which i think meant a lot. but this effort is very interesting. if you are a person of faith and getting into this woke dynamic whether you are christian or a

muslim or maybe even agnostic or atheist, that the children, this is what we all have in common. it doesn't matter your faith. you know your children are to be raised by you. you are responsible for them. it's the continuation of your family, your line and your futures attached to those children. what is this obsession now with politics and with certain groups that they think they are going to cleave that relationship between parents and children under this transgender ideology excuse? >> there is something deeply radical about all of this. what jen psaki doesn't understand if you are muslim or orthodox jew can be atheist or godless like me. when you see people marching through new york city at the so-called drag march saying we are here, we are clear and coming for your children. that is disturbing and disgusting stuff. you see it in schools like a school in philadelphia last october. they had drag queen story hour

for first-graders. some places they have transition closets where kids can come in and change out of regular clothes and put on girls close if you are a boy and you can be in drag in elementary school than change into your regular street clothes and go back home and your parents are none the wiser. this sort of thing has made a huge mistake crossing the boundary. it's one thing to have adult drag queens or adults doing this thing. but we have to go after the kids now. even people on the left say get your hands off our kids now or you will be in deep trouble and they should be. >> it is strange. the damage being done just the gay-rights civil rights movement which is asking to be left alone. to not be treated differently. the damage done is extraordinary. it is americans understanding the difference. we all agree that hands-off children. there is no excuse for that. thank you both very much.

i appreciate it. the woke left is coming for the 4th of july too. we will tell you about that with chris and stephen after the break. stay right there.

welcome back to the special edition of "hannity". as the country gears up for the 4th of july, one study is suggesting that extreme pride in being an american remains near its record low. for those looking to honor our independence, climate crusaders may have other plans. some cities are replacing fireworks with drone shows. that is dumb. due to fire safety concerns. to add to the insanity several l.a. fireworks shows are reportedly being canceled due to new environmental mandates, of course. but remember in 2020 los angeles

implemented a no fireworks order during covid. but it didn't turn out so well for them. los angeles residents came out in spades to celebrate our freedom with a massive fireworks display. you see that there? those are independent displays. that is not cgi. that is la county throughout southern california. a town that votes for the worst people. they understood and did not like being told not to have fireworks. they love the country. isn't that beautiful? with reaction a republican strategist chris and committee to unleash prosperity, one of my favorite newsletters and guys, founder steve moore. thank you both. happy independence day. let me start with you. they will never stop, right? you think they learned a lesson, but they don't. they want to wipe away not just fun things, but things that

inspire americans like the fireworks. what is your take on what the real effort is here and how is this going to affect people? >> i think the pole that you mentioned about people feeling pride in their nation is part of a strategic effort by the democrats and by the schools. it is really to rewrite, revise american history. we are seeing it with a chipping away of fireworks celebrating our country positive freedom, our independence. this is the hallmark of our nation and we are not even allowed to have fireworks. we have drones instead. it is idiotic. i'd like to caveat by saying we are doing something as opposed to canceling fireworks altogether. it is clear that this is a concerted effort to take away american celebration. >> also, steve, the fireworks aren't just because they are pretty. this is about bombs bursting in air. it's the symbolism of the fight that it took to create this

country. we weren't delivered by leprechauns even though some irish were no doubt involved. it is also a strike about what america stands for, which includes the free market and economies that are supposed to work for everyone. is this really a strike at what it means to be an american with this kind of dynamic? >> tammy, there is a reason why i am wearing this red and white tie and a blue shirt. i believe in red, white and blue and most americans do. i am extraordinarily heartbroken buy that poll that you just saw where it was less than 40% of americans that have pride in america. it is not just why is that? we have infiltrated and let the left infiltrate every institution in america whether it's the schools, the media, hollywood, the churches. we are not teaching our kids, tammy, the greatness of america. paul johnson the great historian

who recently died said america is the first great, the only great multicultural country in the world to. our kids are not learning about world war ii, world war i. my father fought in world war ii. my grandfather fought in world war i, to preserve freedom. these kids don't learn any of that. we cannot allow this to continue. we have to take back our schools. do you think the chinese are teaching their children about what a terrible country china is? come on! >> excellent point for both of you. it really is about what we all of the country but we don't like what is happening now. and what it represents now. thank you both. i appreciate it. happy independence day. more on the special edition of "hannity" coming up after the break.
