i can't believe that we are entranced by barack obama. it is a past time hit. ink, watters, that the country has woken up from a dream state that was introduce birthday i a lullby by obama. his charm and rhetoric let him get past all the things you just rattled off, using the irs on conservatives. >> jesse: he got away with anything. >> because he was a beautiful orator. and people like joe rogan went on in the dream state. i think it jarred people -- and you sit here today, and you hear the oratory which is a broken down version of what we heard 10 years ago. it is not pretty and it has no substance. this guy is responsible for many of the ways we ended up under joe biden. >> jesse: the reason that trump is in office even the first time is because of barack obama. and then as vp, he messed things up so badly, he got in again. and he is putting together a team. pete hegseth is fighting hard right now. trump spoke to nbc news. here is a clip. >> reporter: do you have confidence in pete? >> i really do. he is a really smart guy. i have known him through fox, but t

rachel: and then under barack obama and then under joe biden.ny people believe that administration was being run out of obama's mansion in washington, d.c. but that said, the censorship industrial complex that was used to also consolidate that power is something else and that's one of the things that people were really voting against along with the weaponization of the government. this idea that it could be used to sensor us and therefore, allow them to consolidate power barack obama is very isolated right now even best friend george clooney wrote the op-ed ended pushing out joab is now upset at barack obama going hey, you told me to write that op-ed. now, everyone is blaming me online where are you barack obama? barack obama is becoming he's not used to not being glorified and this is anerting moment for him. >> meanwhile across the aisle you have donald trump who has taken over the mantle of sort of occupying the broad center of american public opinion. on things like illegal immigration, to the point where you even have new york city's mayor

no home or use. obama was ruthless barack obama. your brother was ruthless and persecuting is enemies. it wasn't because julian hassan just going to speak for the 1st time since he was released from prison. he's good. just meet tomorrow with the counsel of your of but do you think they've successfully destroyed your character to try and make out your, just a jealous brother. so anything you say about what really is being going on in washington is, is just jealousy and not anything concrete and real, how they tried to destroy you. i'm glad you put it that way because they forget that for 8 good years. i supported him. i said nothing bad about him, nothing negative or positive. now, i went along with the charade. i did, i realize that it was, but not to him. he does not think i'm just telling you, i'm just got nothing to do with jealousy. i was just brought out there when he became president appointed him. i went a little and when day you know, reporters would come to me and asked me all kinds of questions, all kinds of things. and th

and in many ways, it is a bipartisan feel, what is going to be curious to me is will barack obama and donald trump, the speech he gave today indicated he would, i know joe biden and jill biden are going, but there is a lot of progressive ranks that would want to differ with the speech today, they are in an activist fighting mode other then let's shake hands across the aisle and rebuild american democracy. people are wounded right now and i think obama is trying to be a healer. >> and i respect that because i think the problem that i have is that it's just too much of an old-school mentality, and it's not just because i don't respect former president obama, this idea of bipartisan working together requires the other side to also have the decency to want to reach across the aisle to be able to work and when you vote, and by the way, let's emphasize this, it definitely was not a majority. there was no huge overwhelming victory but when you have that many people spitting in your face, i don't think that is the recipe for what obama says, we are not looking for kumbya. >> lewis in congress

and i'm sure that brought a barack obama was part of it. and i'm sure that right now he's probably pulling this change of the engine running the show. and he has to be because buying and joe biden, what it is, vice president for 8 years. meaning that even be a bite in with the president of the wrong bump bump. i'm sure that to buy more than one was telling what to do. and now he's wanting to show no home or use obama was ruthless barack obama. your brother was ruthless and persecuting is enemies. it wasn't because julian hassan, she's going to speak for the 1st time since he was released from prison. he's good . just meet tomorrow with the counsel of your of but do you think they've successfully destroyed your character to try and make out your, just a jealous brother. so anything you say about what really is being going on in washington is, is just jealousy and not anything concrete and real how they tried to destroy you. i'm glad you put it that way because they forget that for 8 good years. i supported him. i said nothing bad about him,

today. barack obama is a king maker. the endorse be now mentally ill, genocide, jo and images to college across the region. he has endorsed holocaust harris to 5 trump in november. joining me that from get in kenya is the brother of iraq, obama. he's the chairman of the brock h obama foundation, and also the big bad brother from kenya. malik obama or not like you're in a car, as i can see on a canyon road side. so it could cross out there, but you have a home? no. okay. um, so let me just ask you um your proof. read for your brother. you are, as is wedding to michelle obama today in many in dc. believe your brother, who is endorsed kamala harris, is pulling the strings in the mid least of as it burns this region, billions a given a way to the dictates as a lensky. why, if we take us back, have you always been suspicious about how he rose to become president as you lost touch and where, but rock obama, your brother was being talked to well groomed. you almost suggest oh, when i met him, i didn't really have an idea all th

new coming up, barack obama addresses kamala harris's crushing defeat. plus tim walz says he was surprised by the results of the election. can you believe that? joining us with reaction, next on this special edition of hannity. >> tammy: all right. welcome back to the special edition of hannity. i said a bad word before we came back in. and i will tell you my mood for this. the democrats had some regrets about the way they ran the 2024 campaign, and maybe of course the last 50 years. former president barack obama is calling on democrats to talk to people with whom they disagree. suddenly he is interested in building coalitions that are open, now get this, to "not only the woke, but also the waking" as though -- that is a confession. that it is not just people who are always going to disagree. it is that have to come along, anyway, no matter what. but even obama is a bit further along in the grieving process than vice presidential nominee tim walz. he can't believe that he and harris lost. he thought that the positive message of the campaign would be enou

tonight, you'll hear the sound if from barack obama and bill clinton. they're now being accused of major hypocrisy. byron york fired up and ready to go on that. also this story tonight. >> do you think some of the resistance of some men, back and white, is misogynist? i i mean, do you think that this is orchestrated? today's your birthday -- >> yes. elizabeth: a major new controversy from msnbc and kamala harris and al sharpton. america's biggest coalition of black church leaders now demand msnbc suspend and investigate al harpton. his nonprofit took in half a million dollars from the kamala failed campaign before he did that softball msnbc interview with her. tonight, former president trump white house -- trump white house press secretary will take on that major conflict of interest. plus, we've got violent gangs like venezuela's tren de aragua for the first time ever under biden taking over u.s. city streets. but for some reason, far-left california governor newsom doubling down on biden's open borders. why? we've got the sound of even charlamagne tha

endorsement 30 minutes after he dropped out. >> jesse: biden is not the only one who's had enough of barack obamareporting that george clooney is feuding that obama tricked him into shivving joe biden. he claims he stepped up and took a bullet for the team and not everyone is complaining about the bloodbath. george became the face of the hollywood liberals by directly calling for biden to end his campaign and throwing the whole process into chaos. he thinks obama should come forward and say that george did the right thing, and it isn't his fault that it didn't work out. but he doesn't expect that will be forthcoming, and it is leaving george feeling like a patsy. now alex soros, george's son, that nothing obama, too. barack shouldn't have ignored soros the elder. "behind closed doors, mr. soros was a touch or judgmental toward some democrats. in the evening's operation of his father, alex soros suggested that barack obama should have listened more to his father. obama is taking on water, biden's world on fire, and kamala is broke. $2.5 billion, to be exact. james carville hyperventilating just th

when barack obama proposed the fast tracking for dreamers the republicans cried oh, my god!drives me crazy, the democrats had control of washington they could of taken control of the dreamers. no, filibuster, barack obama tried to do it in '12 and republican senators vote today down and then in 2020, or 2021 i guess it was they could not bring it up they did not have 60 votes. there were no 9 republicans >> because they were afraid of trump >> and the people he is putting in front of his regime stephen miller are the ones that were advocating, no, no, no to the republicans you can not compromise with barack obama or biden. it was republicans that killed the dream act reform both times in '12 and 2021-2022. >>> lee i hope you will continue to join these conversations so keep them rooted in all of your good work and all of your knowledge. thank you very much for starting us off today >> thank you for having me. >> when we come back trump says the united states should have quote nothing to do with what is happening right now in syria. even though the rebellion stems to remake t

barack obama tells the story. he couldn't even get into the democratic national convention that was in los angeles. travels from chicago to the democratic national convention. can't get in. it's probably the chicago political machine and has to turn back around without even setting foot in that convention. four years later, he delivers one of the most dynamic speeches inside the democratic national convention in 2004 and then is elected to the united states senate four years after that, barack obama, of course, shatters one of the ultimate barriers and becomes the 44th president of the united states of america. and what i'll never forget is there were headlines from all across the country and the world. but the one that stood out to me was a headline from a, a major newspaper in western europe that said, um america does it again, america does it again. and i think what was reflected, there was the fact that america has confronted trials and tribulation and turbulence and trouble in different ways, not born as a pe

joining me now is former cia director and ben roads, deputy advisory to barack obama.e view is on what the fall of al assad means. >> ben, you first. >> this is a seismic event to happen after 13 years. first and foremost it is an extraordinary event for the syrian people who suffered so much. a reminder that the world can turn quickly against a brutal dictatorship. right now it seems like all of the momentum is with the auto accurates, it ought autocrats. the keynote in this regional competition, at the same time it is drawing attention in places like jordan and europe where there is prospects for internal instability as well. a lot of unknowns in what is an unstable region. along with this potential for a hopeful future for the syrians. although they have a lot of work to do. >> bad day for russia, bad day for iran. but israel is trying to take credit and make it a good day for them. benjamin netanyahu saying it say result of the pressure that they have been putting on hezbollah. and truth to that? where does the conflict that israel is involved with multiple countri

barack obama has done the same thing. instead of coming to the center, this guy has gone far left and he's won. so if anybody thinks that hillary clinton is going to be moderated by bill clinton and come to the center and be a moderate, you're absolutely wrong. she is going to go over and help govern with bernie sanders, a socialist, elizabeth warren. this will be the team that will have in place running our country. and if you look at the socialist policies that bernie advocates for that, elizabeth advocates for and now hillary advocates for these don't offer upward mobility. they don't offer prosperity. they bring you despair, whether it's cuba or venezuela or argentina or southern european countries, they never grow economies. they destroy economies. and they want to come to us with a message and say, i've got more free stuff for you. i'm going to offer you more. conservatives will never offer more free stuff than liberals. we'll never do that. but what we will do is offer more opportunity. we will offer more upward mo

george w boorstin yields to barack obama. pendulum swings back the other direction. barack obama, of course yields to donald trump. donald trump then yields to joe biden. joe biden yields back. donald trump pendulum back and forth. and this is a tough moment for us to know, navigate, but, you know, if you think about even president obama's journey which i think is interesting and important for us as, we wrap up, you know, in 2000, president was then just a state senator who had lost his first congressional race that year. bobby rush by about 24 points, lost his first congressional race, just like bill clinton lost first congressional race and. george w bush lost his first congressional race, knocked down on the ground. they get back up. barack obama tells the story. he couldn't even get into the democratic national convention. that was in los angeles. travels from chicago to the democratic national convention. can't get in. it's probably the chicago political machine and has to turn back around without setting foot in that convention. four years later, he delivers on

it's obvious, but i have to talk about barack obama. hussein. sorry.at someone else has been polarizing. he was the most polarizing president almost in decades, racially polarizing. if you look at the charts in gallup, blacks and whites started hating each other, started blacks started hating the country. it just became horrible. class starts with the bitter clingers and then at the end, occupy wall street. he starts pitting rich people against poor people and back and forth. one percenters, all that stuff. we all started hating each other. and then he talks about weaponization, all this stuff. it was his justice department that spied on a fox news reporter. it was his cia that spied on the senate. it was his administration that spied on trump that entrapped flynn, that weaponized the federal government. so now all of a sudden, when everyone's mad that he got caught and did this, now they want to just throw a blanket. pardon? over everybody in d.c. that's not how it's done. this guy needs to look himself in the mirror. >> and it was his irs who went af

and lucky for us barack obama national security advisory ben rhodes back with us.. these are dangerous times. russia is preparing for war for a long war. if you look at their spending plans over years it is designed to keep the war going in ukraine. it is also, i think, increasingly putin is riskier and riskier in trying to threaten nato. i think what he will do eventually. he will test our commitment to article 5. an attack on one is an attack on all. something small, by the way, not tanks but a special forces operation in a small city on the border and then they will leave and then he will dare us to say are you going to defend your allys? and he thinks we won't and then nato will collapse. >> let me read more of this reporting and ask you to pull that thread a little more for us. blaming russia for the attack. the wall street journal reports nato struggled to respond to these assaults and some cases the authorities have decided not to attribute them to russia to not spread panic among their populations. is that the right path ambassador mcfaul? >> reporter: you

i have to talk about barack obama -- hussein, sorry.that someone else has been polarizing. he was the most polarizing president almost in decades. racially and -- black and white's aren't hating each other. blacks aren't hating the country -- it just became horrible. class. it starts with the bits are clingers, and occupy wall street. he starts pitting rich people against poor people, back and forth. one-percenters, all that stuff. it was his justice department that spied on a fox news reporter. it was his cia that spied on the senate. it was his administration that spied on trump, entrapped flynn, weaponized the federal government. now when everyone is mad that he got caught, now they want to throw a blanket pardon over everybody in d.c. that's not how it's done. this guy needs to look himself in the mirror. >> his irs -- tea party activists as well. >> does the forme former president barack obama need a mirror to see where the divisiveness and doom loop came from? >> i said last week, i don't think the democrats ought to be focused on

bill clinton, barack obama, joe biden, they knew how to speak american, i will,. bama would get mocked for dropping his g's that was smart to drop your g's when you're starting to talk to about bill clinton was bubba. there is something about it and donald trump speaks a common language to the people he's talking to and the more mocking us college president types do of it in some ways it only reinforces it. so i don't want to say it's all language or all but there's there's something too which is why the perception of the party only got negatively reinforced when they anointed candidates. it felt like it was the elites making this decision for you. a voter isn't going to tell you that's why they they couldn't connect but i think you can see that that's why they didn't connect. >> i think a problem for democrats though is that that's their coalition and it's very it's hard to be the anti the anti-institutional party when you are the party when you're the party of the people who trust institutions and that's it's just not going to be believable on some level. >> that

if you sit down with mike bloomberg he does not have barack obama, magnetism or pill clinton. his magic is he surrounds himself with the highest quality, most talented people in the most important roles. what you are looking at now is trump picking his ultimate homeboys. >> i remember on september 11 on his campaign he was saying i am going to run the city in many ways i ran the business. efficient, get the economy back up and running. you don't hear that from trump. there is i heard the voter, i will bring these people in to be responsive to the people that voted for me. and this is what they are going to do. that is what a normal politician, somebody that cares about public service would actually say and how they would deliver these picks. that is not what he is doing. he is bringing on people who speak at the msg rally. that is very different, that is a very different calculus here. that is why to your ridge malquestion you are going to see a lot of the types of conflicts and chaos because they are ego-driven not people driven. that is the difference between someone who is

a reminded me of win barack obama, when trump was running and obama was supporting hillary, it was theer factory. trump was saying i'm going to bring the businesses back. i'm going to make jobs have been. barack obama said how was he going to do that, does he have a magic wand? apparently donald trump does, it's called his brain. it sounds like now, we wish the best for nancy pelosi in her healing after the accident in europe, it sounds like barack obama is advising this guy and that means he's not going to do too well. >> is gavin not paying attention to the crime rate or stores closing because you can walk out -- as long as it's under $1000 they won't arrest you or the homelessness problem or the gone problem or the high taxes problem or the burdensome regulation problem. you paid nearly twice for a gallon of gasoline in california than you do in my free state of florida. that's insane. >> gavin newsom also likes to tout that california is the fifth largest economy in the world which is great. the state is geographically beautiful. it has academics that are out of this world. it has

i am sticking up for barack obama here. it is not his fault. >> obama is pitching pluralism.hinking about how we rebuild a conversation where folks are able to disagree without hating each other. pluralism is a fancy word for saying how do we build a bunch of different entry points for people to be in conversations with each other. >> laura: entry points, i don't know what he is talking about? >> if anyone needs a talk in pluralism, it might be barrack or michelle obama. they said this about trump. >> all that stuff does not mean that his presidency would not be dangerous. >> i am a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behaviour, and his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon. a known slum lord. a predator. >> laura: wow, i am so glad we played this. i am so glad you reminded everyone. yay! >> well, and last night, he started his big pluralism speech at his foundation this way. listen closely. >> when i mentioned that we would have a forum on democracy and pluralism, i got more than a few growns and eye rolls. democracy is pretty far down on p

before barack obama plucked him out of the security, he was known almost exclusively for his failurecampaigns because he lied about absolutely everything. so all of that is not really a surprise. i think it's kind of interesting is the democrat reaction. i think the fact that they are kind of freaking out has a lot to do with the fact that -- it's like joe biden rolled another grenade into the democrat party as he's being forced off the stage. by confirming basically what donald trump's entire campaign is, which is that the department of justice is filled with corruption, and that there are all these political persecutions going on. and now -- if you read his statement and just take out the sort of absurd things he says about hunter biden being persecuted, it sounds like a statement that donald trump would have made. the truth is hunter biden is the most privileged criminal in washington. he's gotten every advantage. so when he talks about political persecution, it's not in the way we think. the last thing i think is interesting, usually politicians wait until january 20th to drop th

but the real loser is barack obama. barack obama handpicked her. she was a colossal failure. he's lost his power as kingmaker. i mean, you tried to show us way back in 2008 who barack obama was. donald trump finished him off in this election. he's done. his friends are gone. george clooney's off that he tried to leave him with the bag holding the bag on kamala. you know, with the whole coup to get rid of joe biden. and it was all barack obama's idea. he put his friend up to it and then tried to walk away from the mess. but no one's buying it. the donors are mad. everyone is mad. >> can they make a comeback? we have about 15 seconds, jason. >> as a republican, i hope so because we could smack him down again. that would be awesome. >> okay, i like that. by the way, i did not notice the toilet paper roll on the top of that christmas tree. i, i feel like i failed my audience. anyway, thank you both. more hannity straight ahead. stay with us. >> you believe you were sent by god? yes. repent. come and be baptized in the river jordan. i speak in the name of the one true god. >> it's

it took 65 years later a guy named barack obama gave us the affordable care act.applause] thank god it's all protected and expanded the affordable care act. look, frances perkins laid the groundwork for much of what we accomplished in the last four years. fundamentally transforming the economy by breaking an economic orthodoxy that has failed this nation generation after generation. trickle down economics, a notion that if the wealthy do well, a little will trickle off onto our kitchen table. my dad used to say, nothing used to trickle on my table, honey. my dad was a well read man. he was accepted to johns hopkins but during the war he never got to go. but he was a well read guy. the primary benefits of the very wealthy and biggest corporations were trickle down economics. and that did not do much for working people in the middle class. it left too many people behind. together we build an economy from the middle out and bottom up, not the top down. and because we know the simple truth, wall street didn't build america, the middle class built america. in unions bu

we've seen barack obama and donald trump also make a statement, a noncontroversial statement at that,t of the presidents club as it were coming together for this moment of celebrating a life well lived. just looking at his us foreign policy. we were hearing so much about what he did during his one term. a lot of his achievements, though, were carried on and completed by president reagan. this is the interesting thing. obviously gerald ford completed richard nixon's term as it were, taking over after nixon resigned after watergate, and ford was the first president to really sort of begin to move away from detente, move away from that friendliness that nixon built up with the soviet union to cool the tensions of the cold war and start to emphasise human rights. jimmy carter picks it up and takes it to a whole new level, really prioritising human rights and foreign policy to varied success, but what it does is it really highlights the contradiction in american foreign policy of the time. this idea that america was supporting autocrats and dictators as long as they weren't communists at t

host: you covered ronald reagan, george h w bush, and barack obama. and you released your facebook. guest: my 10th -- your >> you can finish watching this online at c-span.org. we are going to take you to capitol hill where the houses gaveling and for a brief session. no votes are expected today or for the rest of the year. you were watching live house coverage here on c-span. the clerk: the speaker' srooms, washington, d.c., december 27, 2024. i hereby appoint the christopher h. smith to act as speaker pro tempore on this day, signed mike johnson, speaker of the house of representatives. the speaker pro tempore: the prayer will be offered by chaplain kibben. the chaplain: would you play with me? joy to the world, shout for joy all the earth. let us burst into jubilant song and make music to the lord with the instruments at hand, whether with harp or higher or trumpets, let us praise the lord and sing a new song. let us employ all within our mortal bodies to sing songs of praise. let hills and floods, rocks, hills and plains repeat the sounding joy because god has done marvelous thi

if you put your neck out there, i mean, when oprah decided to support barack obama for president, she knew it's going to cost her money. when you anytime you put your toe into the political ring, it does. but i feel the higher cost is to not say something, just especially if you have kids and you want your kids to enjoy the same career opportunities, the same freedoms that that i've enjoyed. you've been pretty active social media, especially on x, and here's a recent x post. my family left california and moved to the free state of arizona because individual liberties were trampled in the guise of liberalism, etc., etc. well, they. yes, exactly right. i think that that i think that i know that that individual liberties are trampled on. if if if the government can shut down your business and say, we're protecting you, it's for health. i mean, it's always for health that or safety that they starts. and during the pandemic, i got out of california because i realized it was time to go and. interestingly, you would think that after the pandemic, the destruction of businesses restaurants, we

barack obama veteran blake zeth., been on different programs and his document "loan wolves" looked at these failures and the student debt crisis that aired on msnbc. i have to mention, i was among those that he interviewed out on the new york city streets. we grabbed a hot dog. tonight i will interview him. welcome. >> reporter: thanks. we took extra time to try to really build out what you are saying. anything new is always different. that is not the usual terms. in your own terms what do you say. >> reporter: the way i think about this, voters sometimes care about issues and so you and i we talk about left to right. too far left, moving to the center, going to the right. that matters but the point here is other stuff matters, too. the other things are attitudes, approaches and we are, right now, ari, at a time with anger. our older viewers remember ronald reagan was trying to sell us shiny optimism and clinton talked about a place called hope. those were hopeful messages they were trying to put forward. that is not

>> well, barack obama certainly has a tough job ahead of him. the democrat party is in an identity crisis and despite being so divisive during the election and villainizing the other side, it actually pushed a lot of populism to the right and now he's trying to pull people back who they lost, the joe rogans of the world and try to do that in a way that says we'll accept more viewpoints. i don't think it's going to work. he doesn't have the support of others in his party. you see them talking in different language, whether msnbc or back back and his speeches. until they figure out who they are as a party, they won't achieve any results they're looking for. maria: this is one of the biggest losers of the election, barack obama. he wanted a fourth term. >> that's right. democracy seems to be working just fine and majority of americans can agree we need a change and that's pretty obvious with the election results. the entire side of the democratic party weaponized the republican party saying republicans are bad or trump is bad. that's all i can reme

if you sit down mono and mono with mike bloomberg, he doesn't actually have barack obama magnetism or bill clinton. his magic is he surrounds himself with the highest quality, most talented people in the most important roles. what you are looking at now is trump picking his ultimate homeboys. >> i remember after 9/11 on his campaign, he was saying, i'm going to run this city in amazing ways i ran my business, we will be efficient, we will get the economy back up and running. you don't hear that from donald trump. there is no "i have heard the voter, i will bring these people in to be responsive to the people that voted for me." and this is what they are going to do. that is what a normal politician, someone who cares about public service would say, in how they would deliver these picks. that is not what he is doing. he is bringing on people who would speak at the msg rally. that is very different, that is a very different calculus here, and that is why i think, to your original question, you are going to see a lot of these types of conflicts and chaos, because they are ego driven, not

i'm i'm sticking up for barack obama here. it's not his fault. >> well, obama is trying to not bring the country together, laura. he's pitching pluralism. listen to this. i've been spending a lot of time thinking about how we rebuild a conversation where folks are able to disagree without hating each other. >> pluralism is a fancy word for saying, how do we build a bunch of different entry points for people to be in conversations with each other? >> entry points? i don't even know what he's talking about. >> if anybody needs a course in pluralism or civility, it might be barack and michelle obama who were saying this a few weeks ago about a guy named trump. >> all that stuff does not mean that his presidency would not be dangerous. i'm a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior. >> his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known a known slumlord, a predator. >> oh, i'm so glad we played this. i'm so glad you reminded everyone. yeah, well, and last night, he started his big pluralism spe
