>> sean: welcome to "hannity", in just a moment of the 45th president of the united states donald trumbull join is just two days after a second assassination attempt in less than two months. plus is that low lights from a kamala harris rare appearance without at teleprompter today, and despite it from the questions, the vice president still struggled to give a single straight answer, take a look. anyway, we will have lot more on that, i don't know where the shot was. anyway, our top story, the leadership out of the fbi and dhs are patting each other on the back for protecting trump but they completely drop the ball yet again. the secret service agents around the president on it sunday, they were heroic. they were amazing, beyond professional, they deserve our

appreciation. the all risk their lives for donald trump, they acted within seconds. incredible job, weld on, amazing to training. that part could not have done more poor figley picked and donald trump would likely be dead right now if not for one eagle-eyed secret service agent who spotted the barrel of a gun in the tree line where trump was playing golf. this is a known area that is very dangerous in terms of it is the most vulnerable position on the golf course where a lot of paparazzi hiding in those bushes to take pictures and videos of trump but it is less than about 300 euros to where trump was about to be. now the threads about donald trump are very real, the lack of urgency, the lack of accountability from the dhs and the entire biden-harris administration is more than appalling. donald trump has a huge base of devoted supporters, there are americans who would walk over

hot coals to vote for him and they will. where they are also people who hate the former president with a passion which is now made him obviously the number 1 target in terms of assassination in our country. he has a lot of enemies, in the democratic party, state run media mob, the deep state, government officials, trump derangement syndrome is a very real, they have demonized him, they have smeared him, they have slandered him and created a caricature of him. in less than a decade trump has gone from a billionaire celebrity beloved by democrats into the media to a republican, the same people now referred to him constantly as a threat to democracy. but it's donald trump's politics and wide rig that did not align with his demo tried -- democratic machine and people on the left have done nothing but abilify him and glorified violence against him, take a look. >> that man cannot see public

office again. he is not only unfit, he is destructive to our democracy, and he has to be eliminated as. >> the donor cross cannot sit on the sidelines and say don't worry this will work itself out. they will have to go out and put a bullet in donald trump and that is a fact. >> yes! i have thought an awful lot about blowing up the white house! >> one was the last time somebody assassinated president? led me clarify i am not an actor. [laughter] however, it's been awhile! and maybe it's time. >> the zine as he does, of course want to punch him in the face. >> do i have a shot of debating him? no i wish i could take him behind the gym, that's what i want! >> was this kind of inspiration i will go and take trump out tonight!

>> sean: imagine any conservative said anything similar about any democrat, even trump's opponent talked about killing the former president you may recall and it's not funny. >> if he had to be stuck in an elevator with trump, joe biden or davis sessions who does it have to be? >> does one of us have to come out alive? [laughter] >> sean: for years donald trump,'s family and reporters have been vilified, dehumanize, falsely they create this ridiculous it caricature of hama that remains in in the minds of too many people. despite nonstop hysteria, the russia hoax, the witch hunt, the two bogus impeachment, hillary clinton's dirty russian disinformation dossier guy go up and eyes to doj, they cannot erase a simple fact and that is

at trump's presidency was marked by sound policies, stability and you are not better off four years with having had a kamala harris and joe biden in office. back when trump was president of the economy was strong, rebounding well from covid-19. the world was a far more peaceful place, gas was cheap, productivity was high, he said record after record low unemployment for any demographic in the country, opera borders were secure. trump did not cause a world war or become a dictator. he upheld the u.s. constitution, he worked within the three branches of government to implement his agenda. democrats, is a mob and media lie repeatedly and say donald trump is a threat to democracy. why do people think when they hear this? you decide. >> watch what happens, he is a danger, he is a genuine danger to american security. >> trump presents a challenge and a threat, fundamentally to

the republic. >> trump is an existential threat to our democracy and our most fundamental freedoms. >> don't give them the power, are the offer over democracy? yes. >> let's not purchase and it donald trump is not exactly like a hitler, he is that guy. >> donald trump presents an existential threat to democracy. he is advertised he will transition this country for my democracy to a dictatorship. >> he is paving the way to become a laterite food and/or become when adolf hitler. that is what he wants to be. >> we have to defeat a person who is a threat to our democracy a kind we have not seen. >> sean: adolf hitler, --, putin, now trying to murder donor trump or, yet the white house continues to fan to the flames, according to karima

jean-pierre, the real dangers from anybody who attempts to question their radical and extreme rhetoric. take a look at the. >> how many more assassination attempts on trump before the president, vice president and yourself pick a different word to describe trump rather than threat? >> peter, if anything from this administration, i actually completely disagree with the premise of your question, the question you're asking is also incredibly dangerous in the way you are asking it. because american people are watching. >> sean: a lot of people are listening to as well. to recap democrats told everybody trump was evil, the next coming to plotting to and the american democracy, making a direct threads about assassinating donald trump, nothing happens to them? two people and tried to assassinate donald trump while he's running for reelection, the white house thinks its dangers

for anybody to asks about the extreme rhetoric coming from their side, of course democrats are not going to make any efforts to bring down the temperature, one day after donald trump was almost killed, hillary clinton goes on msnbc and tells of the network's top conspiracy theorists and their viewers that trump is a danger to the country in the entire world, day after he got shot or guy attempted to kill him, a wannabe assassin and the bushes and thankfully he was stopped. one day after. take a look. >> journalists should really try to achieve objectivity and by that he said i mean it they should cover the object. the object or in this case is donald trump. his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world, and stick with it. >> sean: i would actually like to have hillary explain how she

had funds that she funnels through a law firm a research firm and the former agent and got a russian disinformation that was used for awards per, i don't know, curious people would like to know. but would like to know how hillary clinton deleted 32,000 subpoenaed emails and was not held accountable or had it top-secret information on her service, i would like to know that as well. hillary clinton so deeply worried about the about the spread of misinformation, she was americans to be thrown in at jail for posting so-called was information online, take a look. >> i think it is important to indict the russians, just as smaller inundated a lot of russians who were engaged in direct election interference and boosting a trump back in 2016. as a thinker or americans that are engaged in this kind of propaganda. whether they should be civilly

or even in some cases criminally charged is something that would be a better deterrent. >> sean: and of course with the doj, the weapon is doj of the biden-harris administration they think if we talk about inflation you could be spreading russian disinformation even though it is completely true. never forget hillary clinton, our campaign funnels that money through that law firm to hire and foreignness by that put together the dirty russian disinformation dossier which was completely debunked although it was then used by others to get lawrence to back stores donald from the canada, the president and she and all of her coconspirators and those who were never held accountable. this is the very real definition of election interference, hillary and her campaign, lying about the dossier, calling it a legal expense. if she lived in new york and

actually had equal justice under the law she would be tried for that. hillary clinton frankly the queen herself of misinformation, so of course she appears on a show, on those countries number 1 conspiracy theorist show on msnbc and spreads more propaganda and lies. of course most democrats don't really care about misinformation or democracy or divisive rhetoric, they use it all the time. these are merely tools they used to gain and hold onto power, it is a means for an end. of course if something bad happens like an assassination attempt against trump, they just blame donald trump. at can't make it a sub, take a look. >> the fact that right now you have a former president that yes has been the target of the apparent assassinations is also an instigator of political violence. >> you can't tag you don't get to be a very big part of the problem and then pretend that it's just the other people on

the other side who caused this. >> the irony of this is the actual violence we are seeing comes much members -- disproportionally from maga themselves. >> do you expect to hear anything from the trump campaign about toning down the rhetoric or violence, without be typical of the former president? >> e here this fight chant g here trump do right after that shooting in butler, you saw that once again on truth social, that does scare me a little bit. >> sean: now with more news breaking onto this, editor and she found her an investigative reporter john sullivan and jim jordan, john let's start with you, what have you discovered today? >> listen, one ryan routh came back from ukraine recording foreign fighters to go to ukraine and to join a war there, he came back to the

united states custom border, the protective agencies stopped him as he was returning to hawaii and he made several spontaneous comments that caused him to be interviewed more deeply. he was learning -- the learned he was trying to recruit people from of gano stein, syria, he had contacts with the several foreign countries and they were concerned what he was telling, he claimed a woman he identified as his wife was funding to these operations for him. they referred him to the homeland security investigations unit, basically the fbi, the homeland security department and they declined to further investigate him. this marks the fourth time since 2019 and this sunday where federal agencies got a warning about ryan routh, it started in 2019 with a warning to the fbi he might be in possessions of weapons as a convicted felon, of what guy who had weapons of mass destruction in his possession. then in 2023 and american nurse tries to contact law enforcement saying she was concerned about the behavior she saw of ryan

routh when he was in ukraine, she was there volunteering at trying to help people, then to the custom board's protection, homelands own agency flag is this man says this man has to be investigated waste and what he said out of the border back at the united states and the federal agencies of force tom declined to look at this guy and put them on a different course and what we saw on a sunday when he was trying to shoot president trump. >> sean: jim jordan let's talk about not only the rhetoric of the left, but is it caused r&d monetization at a caricature they painted of donald trump and even going as far as say he is adolf hitler, you just hard hillary clinton the day after an assassination attempt they are blaming him for the fact that somebody wanted to take a shot at him, another would-be assassin within 300 yards of him. >> crazy guy on the left attempts to assassinate

president trump and the left blames president trump, you can't make this out. but the left has a template, they will tell a lie, say that trump is at this end of this, big media reports the light, big attack amplifies the light and eat when you tell the truth they attack you! the colliar racist or some other name, by the time they prove that what we say is true, they go to the next light. what strikes me that so amazing about this whole thing is, president trump's response, i talked to him sunday after this ordeal, he was as determined as ever to win this election, get back to the white house and put america back on the path we deserve to be on. in-flight what he has been through, it was that a first investigation guided the impeachment, four in dykema's, the 14th amendment got gagged order, two assassination attempts, everything they have done and yet he is fighting the

good fight because he loves this country. and i think that messages getting through loud and clear to the voters against his country. >> sean: did kamala harris after the burning to down ever the police precinct in minneapolis four days later when she tweeted out a bail find it to get people involved out of jail, was she supporting the riots and insurrection? she supporting it when she went on with colbert and saying to the rioters will not stop, they should not stop and we will not stop? was she ever held accountable for supporting writing and insurrection? did anybody investigated the 574 riots she was offering aid and comfort to? >> of course not! they defined it as peaceful protest! again, the left tells a lie, the media report said, that's what they call a peaceful protest! that was all part of another example of the left lying to us, of course she was not held

accountable for that. >> sean: and two dozen dead americans, 57413 mugs got thousands of injured cops, molotov cocktails, and billions in property damage and her running mate opening of the windows to his home so you can smell burning rubber rather than call the national guard pig that is peaceful! i don't understand the definition. when we come back, former president donald trump will join us for an exclusive interview and talk about the second assassination attempt into what one wants and his life, he is next. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> sean: joining us now on the phone to react to the most recent assassination attempt on his life, in it two moscow former president donald trump mr. president thank you for being with us tonight.

this is the second assassination attempt in two months, i would imagine the average prisoner would be pretty shaken up. tell us what happened, how are you doing, and there's a few other follow-up questions as it relates to this. >> mr. trump: i am doing fine. it was sunday, briefly i think most people have heard it, talking about of the borders inflation and the economy and all of the things you want to talk about it, but it was on a golf course. in west palm. and we heard shots ring out around, and where shots ring out and they were pretty obviously shots but the secret service said they were definitely shots. they turned out to be the secret service agents that caught somebody, a couple of holes in advance, caught him by the finance which protects the property, he was on the other

side of the fence, a gun barrel hanging outside of the fence which is pretty amazing. did a really great job, frankly i think the secret service did a great job. they got me out of there quickly back they went after him and they were lucky enough to have somebody who took him away which was genius and they nabbed him on the highway. it was another day that was very interesting to. we want to get to business, you want to get to the business of running our country, our country has never been worse, one of the laughingstock of the world. we after one of the border properly, was happening and ohio, colorado and every other state is crazy, it's a good take over our country of people coming and with guns are getting gonzaga to they get in. the of the most powerful weapons you can have. >> sean: let me ask you this if you don't mind, your golf partner, a year happens to be a

mutual friend of hours and have gone to lunch with him that morning. he described in great specificity the incredible reaction time, heroism of these secret service agents that were surrounding you that day and how quickly they got on top of you, got you out of the situation. a flawless operation in terms of those agents, they deserve so much credit for what they do, they would risk their lives, no greater love a cement to lay down their life for another and they are willing to do that for you. that part of the story, i mean it the fact that you have, in this country has such incredible people is a great story. but here's what troubles may. in butler, p.a., we were able to get a note to the roof within hundred and 30 yards and come was in emily miller of taking your life. in this situation, it is a well known area that is treated as you pointed out with the fence

on eight and this guy according to reports it might have been there for 12 hours,'s phone painted in the area for 12 hours ahead of time, 1:30 a.m. so obviously there is some type of anticipation for you to play golf or something happened. the problem is, he got within 300 yards of you with an ak-47 with the scope. what i don't understand and what your son ergo does not understand and many of your family members don't understand, is when you have a treaty area that is known to form paparazzi taking videos and videos of you when you play golf, that is the only area they can do that of the golf course, why was in that area swept? why weren't as their agents on the outside making sure nobody would go in the bushes? why weren't of the bushes check it? to me that is a colossal failure, and that concerns not

just me but every one of your supporters and everyone of your family members serve. >> mr. trump: i understand that, in its very sharp agent, a student -- as good as you can find, but somebody could have missed the barrel of that rifle. somebody of lesser tolerance or somebody distracted could have missed, could have been shot frankly, could have also been shot. into this case it was something that worked out very well. as to whether or not they should notice two days in advance, i cannot say. i just said let's go play a quick round because it's all business for me, it's my, the only form of exercise and i like it as well, something that is good. but it's also very important you know, that you are able to go and do what you want with safety. affirmed the secret service,

butler is a very different story. somebody should have been on that a building, that is a different story. but they were very brave, one of those bullets were flying, they were trying to protect me. >> sean: but don't you think that an area with trees leading into a fence, 300 plus yards away from you, that area as a matter of standard operating procedure should be swept and we should have our eyes on it to make sure nobody, be it a paparazzi or into this case a would-be assassin, has access to being close to you with an ak-47 with the scope? years sounds could tell you, they are both excellent marksman, and that that is the equivalent of a 1 foot pot if you want to use a golf analogy. you have two incidences in 24 months or people with rifles and scopes get within hundred and

30, 300 plus yards of you, which would be an easy shot for even a marginal shooter. that to me, and we heard this, ahead of the secret service praising his organization and saying this is a great success, the fact they did the -- they did not cover that area to me is a great failure. i understand your reluctance to be critical but i'm very critical of it, and i just feel like there's got to be an evaluation here immediately. has your campaign ever been denied resources you requested from the secret service? >> mr. trump: that is the big thing, we have long requested more people. more men and woman, more people. because we have rallies, 50, 60,000 to pick a new jersey we had 170,000 people show up, but never his hide anything like it. we have long requested people that is true. i think that is the weakness,

you still need the power of the people. the manpower and the woman power to get in there and look, we don't have, or we have not had a, i understand now they will be doing this, you can have somebody who's a president that is not have a lot of people watching him when it's a lot easier adulation than it is for me. we have tremendous rallies and crowds, it's a great thing. you need more protection. gave long requested more people. in butler we wanted more people, i have heard them say we need more people here, for security. and we never seemed to get that and i think we are getting to the edge now. somebody told me people be getting more people now. >> sean: i would think now maybe we can learn the lessons from it, when i have heard the head of the secret service saying this was almost a perfect operation, i'm not buying that. praising mayorkas who has been

responsible along with kamala harris and joe biden allowing invited 11 million plus illegal immigrants from 180 countries including countries with terror ties, allowing people was known in terror ties into the country. we have seen them committed murder and violent crimes against our citizens pick to me, it is unconscionable because all of that is preventable and you should be, now that voting is starting in pennsylvania, people need to understand all of this. i think we have a major secret -- security file going around and you seemed to be the number 1 target for assassinations in this country. as your son says last night, how many lives do you have left? a cat has nine lives, how many lives does don't trump have left? it is scary for people that carry about a year. >> mr. trump: i never thought about that way, interesting way

to think about it. i will say that is on the border you are right, we had of the safest border in the history of our country when i left office, in fact that they must shot when i was turning right to look at, the border patrol, it was the best number in terms of drugs, in terms of people, meaning the fewest people, we had a downed it to an absolute silence and it became a rocket ship right after that. it was a shame -- absolute sides. we had a great abortive situation that was going good to get a better, we had all sorts of things pick people could not come into our country until they got a pastor, into the god through very vigourous test. it was a great thing and now it is truly one of the great problems. no country has been innovated like we have been invaded, if you look at what is going on in

ohio, colorado, so many states pick a lot of other states i don't want to talk about it yet because they are embarrassed by it. but they are being innovated by people from jail is, gang members, we had people coming in from mental institutions and terrorists coming in at a level we have never seen before. it's crazy, it makes no sense whatsoever while they are not closing to the border. they can do it with a phone c call, close the border. >> sean: mr. president i agree completely, let's not give free hells gate, education, a sex change surgery and amnesty to those, as tom almagro has said. i know for your guide for those of us who have known you for many years, we pray because we are glad you are safe. if the biden-harris administration is not giving you and your campaign of the resources, they need to. they did not give art of juniors

and resources he needed, this needs to stop. the need a complete evaluation and the next 48 hours so this will never happen again. we're glad you are safe mr. president, thank you for the question. being with us. >> mr. trump: thank you very much. >> sean: all right, kamala harris media strategy now been revealed, it was on full display in philadelphia. we will show you highlights and get reaction, that is straight ahead. ♪ ♪to sma, it's okay to show off. with dupixent, show off your clearer skin and less itch. because you have plenty of reasons to show off your skin. with dupixent, the #1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists and allergists, you can stay ahead of your eczema. it helps block a key source of inflammation inside the body that can cause eczema to help heal your skin from within. many adults saw 90% clearer skin, some even achieved long-lasting clearer skin and fast itch relief after first dose.

>> you know, she may be able to get away with it in the sense of the news media but the american people are not stupid. recent interviews for example with undecided voters, overwhelmingly but they believe she is much more radical than donald trump. they believe her programs, they identify her with joe biden and the biden administration. overwhelmingly, they think that she is the candidate of the past and trump is a candidate of change by about sleep on a 5-1, americans want to change incurred policies, not continuity. part of this may be psychological, she may not be capable of uttering a clear-cut coherent policy position. for whatever the reason, the more we get these award to salads, the more obvious it is she either does not know what she is saying where she cannot articulated, or she is trying to hide.

these things all heard her. this interview today did not help her at all. the interview in philadelphia on the local tv station became a joke, it was absurd. earlier, if you just watch her it's the same stuff are were in over, this think she has memorized has nothing to do with the real world and i particularly want to point out, at one point into this interview she talks about we have to get to the truce in gaza and release the hostages. two problems. first, she's the vice president. they had 11 months to get to this truce perk 11 months! they have gotten nowhere. is no reason she will get anywhere if she was president, why? because the founding constitution of hamas as, not a single will remain. people change from the river to the sea, they are chanting to. as much as the nazi germans were

about, it is a genocidal quote that hamas means to either mastercard or evict every single jew in israel. her fantasy that somehow she's going to sit down with a hamas, talk reasonably with them, get them to agree to something implausible, it's insanity. it is totally out of touch with the real world. >> sean: what do you advise of the trump campaign now that early voting started in pennsylvania, the rollout in swing state after swing state, and 49 days until election day? what is your advice keg year one of the smartest political minds i know in the country. >> let me start with the interview you just had with the president, as you know, we both feel very close to and are very worried about, first thing, over 70,000 secret service agents in

the united states. how many additional are being transferred tomorrow to protect trump? second, are they going to have a drone with infrared coverage when it this idea there is saying, nonsense! the secret service has an obligation to bring in enough technology and enough people that the potential president of the united states is safe, say from the iranians, people who are crazy, say from hamas, and that is the duty of the secret service. not to restrict the president but to restrict the assassin. i have to get that out of the way. second, this is simple, you have talked about it for years, every time president trump is focused back disciplined and stays on the issues, he is gaining ground. every time he goes off on some comment that is not of thoughtful, he gives the news media an excuse to cover nothing

that matters and beat him up. i would say then the next five or six weeks he disciplined, focused and policy oriented. you will dramatically advance of the majority. he will win anyway because she will lose but he will win a baker if he is disciplined and focused. >> sean: all right, appreciator. when we come back, hundreds of hezbollah pagers exploded simultaneously in lebanon, injuring thousands very, we will explain what happened, had reaction with my quads, that is next. ♪ ♪

her hate -- there pagers, their hands were blown off, it was a very clear signal signed. israel is playing for keeps, the understand it is an existential threat. if i make a new abided we would have pulled it back but think about, bring it back to america, supply chains based on batteries, pharmaceuticals, it trips, malware placed into those are a threat to us. and in this case the israelis interceptor day and damage the terrorists. this can happen to us which is why supply chains are very important but genius in this case. i don't know, between israel and lebanon, israel is setting the tone but they sent a very clear message. >> sean: of god to imagine this probably put a lot of fear into the hearts of all of these hezbollah members, final word congressman? >> can you imagine sean, if the

cia under kamala harris proposed such a clever operation? the risk aversion, the lack of understanding, there is no way she would have ever had the guts to approve this. this is how you have to deal with these terrorist organizations. >> sean: all right, congressman, thank you. always good to have.ed when wice come back, more "hannity" straight ahead. ♪ ♪ have sal onpas. powerful yet non-addictive. targeted and long-lasting. i recommend salonpas. it's good medicine. ♪ hisamitsu ♪
