But turns out she is off. Take a look. President trump i went through congress. I made a deal. I got almost 1. 4 billion when i wasnt supposed to get one dollar. Not one dollar. He is not going to get one im not happy with it. Sean nor am i. The president is right. He got 1. 375 billion for the wall and a bill to trip the funding for barriers over the previous budget. Only seven months this budget. It killed the socalled poisoned pill like any amnesty. Not in the bill. No pathway to citizen. No limit on i. C. E. Detention. Instead of a limit the bill funds 5,000 more beds for illegal immigrant detention. Remember the far left radical socialist democrats calling for i. C. E. To be abolished . This includes money for 600 highlyneeded professional officers. Still, you heard the president. He is not happy. Nor should anybody be happy. Because 1. 375 billion for a wall is not enough. Its why i have called this bill garbage from the beginning and why the president is now officially as of today declaring the National Emergency that he has been telegraphing to the world he is going to do. Take a look. President trump so im going to be signing a National Emergency. What we want to do is simple. Its not complicated. Its simple. We want to stop drugs from coming in the country. We want to stop criminals and gangs from coming in the country. This is invasion of the drugs and the criminals coming in the country we stop but its hard to stop. With a wall it would be easy. I think that we will be very successful in court. Sean i believe that as well. Lets break down exactly what this means. As the president declares a National Emergency the administration will gain access to 8 billion. The president can use the 1. 375 billion from the budget compromise. So progress continues for the rest of the fiscal year through october. They will get 2. 5 billion from the department of the interdiction program. 3. 6 billion from the department of Defense Military construction account. He knows the democrats as we predicted they will go judge shopping. They will challenge this action in court. But the efforts ultimately will come up short. One constitutional scholar after another agrees with us. The president standing on firm legal ground. Look at the u. S. Code. Law passed by congress signed into law. Act that states construction of roads and the fences, that would be a barrier, a wall. Installation to block drug smuggling corridors across boundaries of the United States. And he has standing based on the u. S. Code. 2808. That allows the construction project for the national security. That is not all. Since 1978 a whopping 58 National Emergencies declared by president starting with jimmy carter. 3 is of those National Emergency declarations are still in effect today. Former president obama declared ten National Emergencies. Including one that countered the rise in crime from deadly mexican cartel. There is legal, legislative and constitutional precedent for the National Emergency when it comes to stopping drugs, gangs, cartels, trafficking and everything else. And all the Security Risk to americans at the border as a result of open border. 300 americans die weekly from heroin. 90 of which is trafficked across the southern border. In 2017, more than 70,000 americans died from the drug overdoses. Last year, fentanyl trafficking shot up 122 . In arizona alone the fentanyl deaths tripled. In the past two years, 4,000 criminal aliens were arrested for homicide. 30,000 for sex crimes. 100,000 for violent assaults. That is a twoyear period. Last year alone 800 gang members apprehended at the border. Increase from 2017. Today the president had a powerful message from a fake news hack who tried to claim this is a manufactured crisis. The same talking point the media uses as best friends in the Democratic Party. Take a look. What do you say to your critics who say you are creating a National Emergency . That you are concocting a National Emergency to get the ball because you couldnt get it through other ways . What do you think . Do you think im creating something . Ask the incredible women who lost daughters and sons. This is real. President trump your question is a very political question because you have an agenda. You are cnn, fake news. Sean maybe jim should walk over and talk to the angel moms that we have on this show. Made him look week, bad, pathetic. Heartless. When he forced to face the brave angel mom and dads who lived through hell, pain and suffering that none of us can imagine, he didnt want to talk to them. Tonight no matter what you hear from the democrats or the hate trump media the wall is getting built. The deal maker is keeping his promises. He is winning. The American People are the real winners here. Huge win. This is a win for the country. This is a win for you and your families and the safety and the security. Which brings us tonight to the hannity watch on what is the abusively biased hate trump media. Recently the Media Echo Chamber have been spreading unbelievable fake news about the president and me. And our relationship. Why they are obsessed with this, i dont know. Take a look. This is a president terrified of angering his base. He is concerned, i imagine he is on the phone with lou dobbs and sean hannity to tell him i have to do this. He is afraid of losing this news cycle. To the hashing like dow dobbs, sean hannity and ann coulter. He set a precedent to haunt the Republican Party for decades if not generations. The 2014 republicans battle president obama in public and in court over similar actions. But 2019 mike pence and republicans are saying thank you, sean hannity, may have i have another. Let me say up front. The president nor anybody in the white house ever called to calm me down. Whatever that means. I say this. With all due respect to all of you guys over there its cracking me up. Im thrilled with it. I have been calling for secure borders and build the wall first for a long time. For all of you geniuses that are overpaid in the hate trump media and lazy. Let me explain what i do for a living. I am a talk show host. In other words im a member of the press. We are like the whole newspaper on the show. I can produce hours and hours of radio and television where i do straight news. We do tons of investigative reporting. You are too lazy to do it or to biased to do. We were the only show, one of the only shows that vetted obama, Frank Marshall davis had acorn and alinsky and dont forget the church of the j. D. America and the black theology. The cover of ail ayres and Bernadine Dorn . We had serious investigations in the duke lacrosse scandal. I met with some of the kids and the families. Baltimore, maryland. We were right. You all in the media were wrong. Uva. Richard jewel. The scourge of the Gang Violence in chicago. We put up names on the show. The manmade drought, dealt the smelt in california. We investigate what your kids are up to on spring break. We do investigative reporting and straight news as talk show host. We also did the twoyear investigation in the deep state. We have the evidence you never paid attention to on the attempted coup for president of the United States where they let a candidate free to sabotage the other. Like every newspaper, we are like the full news. We give opinion. I dont hide that i am a registered conservative. We even do sports. Two nights ago we had on tim tebow. Our First Amendment freedom of the press, well, part of the free press you can be a talk show host and do all of those things. It covers many unique roles for the press. Doing so like others socalled journalists, i used sources all the time. I work the phones daily to get information. To do reporting, investigation. So i can give my audience the best information that you guys arent giving them. Ill never ever, by the way, for all of you that speculate, i would never confirm, not even deny who my sources are, who i talk to, who i dont talk to or even if i talk to people alone. What you have in the media right now is obsession. They have blinders on. Prism that they see donald trump. Lazy, overpaid people in the hate trump media so blinded by the hatred and the rage for trump, they need to get their own sources of information. Instead of falsely speculating about mine. Here is a simple truth. Nobody in the media has ever, ever come close to describing the relationship that i had with the president that goes back well over two decades. If one exists, i wouldnt tell you anyway. All right. Now to end all fake news reports on how i accurately predicted exactly what the president would do on the border, he didnt tell me. Its simple. I paid attention to all his public comments. He said it over and over and over again. I heard him. You refused to hear him. Remember when he said i will add whatever i have to add. What do you think he meant . Remember he said many times im looking at the National Emergency seriously. He kept saying these things repeatedly. And what those of you in the fake news industry dont seem to understand, the president does listen to other points of view. Yeah. But at the end of the day, its Pretty Amazing all of you cant figure out he makes up his own mind. Its not hard to understand what he is going to do because what he has been doing for the last two years, what he has been saying in the last week is usually what he ends up doing. Now by the way for the record, ill say this in all honesty. If the president listened to me, he would have stopped tweeting in 2016. Or tweeted less. Because me and a bunch of other people told him well, you got to stop. I got to admit in retrospect, i actually think he was right to keep doing this. Maybe 5 less. Because what he is doing is bypassing the abusive press that has offered people that hate him every day and he is getting his message directly to the American People, which as you can see in a media landscape full of conspiracyer thatries, hatred, fake news is now more important than ever before. Take for example the report from news busters. Look at this. All the big networks, abc, nbc, cbs. They went wild with the collusion coverage. One story false after another. They dedicated 2,202 minutes of airtime. Three networks. They aired and they found zero seconds, minutes for the available airtime when the Bipartisan Senate report that found no collusion with russia this week. They didnt cover it at all. Because then they would have to admit they were wrong. I happen to like the fighter that is in the white house. I do like the man who fights. Tenacious, unrelenting and fights to keep his campaign promises. Its refreshing. Its energizing to watch him go down the list and see all the success for the forgotten men and women who voted for him in 2016. The policies he advocated for in his campaign that he is now delivering on. To be very honest, i have been supporting these are things i publicly stated support for, most of them, for 30 years on radio. 23 years on the fox news channel. Why . Because conservatism works. It works every time its applied. Just like i predicted obama would fail. 13 million more americans on food stamps and 8 million more on poverty. Look at the president s positive recordbreaking results on the economy alone. New trade policies. We are making more money. More opportunities for americans. 600,000 manufacturing jobs. 5. 3 million new jobs. I like the policies. Its worth fighting for the policies. All right. We have more on this later but first we have to turn to the hannity watch on the deep state in light of yesterdays big news. Huge bombshell revelation surrounding disgrace, fired f. B. I. Deputy director andrew mccabe. Last night we laid out the entire case. 2016. Small group. High ranking. Unelected, unaccountable bureaucratic. They abuse their power in such a way to try to rig the 2016 election in favor of one candidate, Hillary Clinton, over another candidate donald trump. They allowed their chosen candidate Hillary Clinton to stay in the race by clearing her of all charges before they even investigated it. Well, things that no other american could ever get away with. Trust me. We have subpoenaed emails, dont delete them and dont wash the hard drive and bust up devices. Strozk interviewed hillary. He said hillary would win 100 million to 0. Anyway, comey and strozk decided to give her a pass. The fix was in. They didnt prosecute clinton for obvious felony violations of the espyianage act. They chose not to prosecute her over the biggest slam dunk obstruction of Justice Charges when she deleted acid washed thousands of subpoenaed emails with the bleach bit and beat up her phone with a hammer and ripped out sim cards. Any other american would have been tried. They would have been charged with felonies. But not Hillary Clinton. That is what they did. They abuse power. Also in july of 2016, right after they give her that free pass, that keeps her in the president ial election, the same exact people then use Hillary Clintons bought and paid for phony russian dirty dossier. To open up an investigation in the Trump Campaign. They used the same unverified garbage to spy on a Trump Campaign associate. They were all warned it was unverified. Hillary clinton paid for it. It was never corroborated or verify and that steele hated Hillary Clinton. A lot of it has since been debunked. Those known lies were used to repeatly, four separate occasions, commit fraud on fisa courts. And deny fellow american of the Constitutional Rights. Then they used it later. Remember . Insurance policy to illegally attempt a coup. Again, using the russian lies. They knew they were russian lies. They were briefed they were russian lies to unseat the president that they didnt like. The candidate they didnt like. The one who had smelly walmart voters following him. After months long investigation, meaning almost nine months. Lisa page, and james comey others admitted there is no evidence of the trumprussia collusion. But it doesnt stop the same group of the unaccountable, unelected bureaucrats from plotting to remove duly elected president from office. Watch this. There were meetings at the Justice Department in which it was discussed whether the Vice President and majority of the cabinet could be brought together to remove the president of the United States under the 25th amendment. Sean joining us now with reaction to the top story, former d. N. C. Communications director Louis Miranda and the u. S. Border Patrol Council art delcueto with us. Art, you have been there before, as on the border. Is this a crisis when we lose 70,000 people a year to drug overdoses, 90 of heroin coming across the border, massive increases in fentanyl . Oh, its definitely a big crisis. Not only that. But you start looking at the amount of the individuals that are crossing the border. You talk about the caravans coming across the border. All of those issues. Look at the attacks on the Border Patrol agents defending the borders. Everything has been bigger than before. Its a crisis. We are lucky we have a president who is actually talking about it. Bringing it up to light. I hope this, you know, the National Emergency stands. That is a big issue. I know there will be some fighting back and forth with the court but i hope it stands. There are also some issues within the bill itself. The spending bill. Now law. That also has us concerned, though, because it does place limitations on some of the agents. It places limitation on law enforcement. Sean let me bring in luis for a second. How come Hillary Clinton, chuck schumer, barack obama, joe biden and pretty much most of the democrats i have the tapes. How come they sounded like donald trump a couple of years ago in the second term of barack obama . How come then they wanted a ball, then theyd fund a wall and now its immoral and we cant spend a dollar on the wall . How do you explain the hypocrisy of your party . A great question. Thank you for having me on. A quick aside here. Sean no, no, no. We dont have time for asides. Slow down. Luis, luis, luis. I asked you a question. Luis, cmon. Here is the thing sean i asked a question. They such ported at it couple of years ago they supported it a couple of years ago. Why not now . When hillary and bill clinton talked about the issue in 1995, 1997, 2005 sean you dont want to answer the question. Im explaining it. The number of illegal entries were far higher. Over a million every year. There was a situation that needed to be put under control so that is why from 2000 to 2014, you saw the number of the Border Patrol agents doubled. You all more resources. You saw more efforts to go ahead and install Technology Sean you got to listen. Im listening. Sean 90 of the american heroin crosses the border. 300 heroin deaths a week in the country. We agree that is a problem. We both agree that is a problem. Sean are you going to tell me we dont have an obligation to secure the border, to stop the influx of drugs, cartels and the gang members and those that also not the 98 , the 2 of the criminals that commit murder and Sexual Assault crimes . Dont we have an obligation to protect them . Yes or no . Absolutely. What we need is a safe and orderly border. But what you are talking about the crisis, fentanyl and the drugs are coming up through the legal ports in vehicles and in trucks
