Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All Right News round Up, Information Overload. Our toll free
art number is eight hundred and nine four one sean
if you want to be a part of the program. Now,
with all the law fare and judge shopping and weaponization
that we have witnessed from the left, there are some
(00:21):
state attorneys general that are fighting back. We now have
in my free state of Florida, the next steps to
protect your children, and the Attorney General James Utmeyer is
going to join us in just a minute, has now
filed a lawsuit against Snap Inc. They're the operator of Snapchat,
which a lot of kids use, alleging violations of Florida law,
(00:44):
specifically HB three in the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade
Practices Act. And the complaint is asserting that Snap has
knowingly defied HB three, which prohibits social media platforms from
providing accounts to you who's under fourteen years of age
and requires parental consent for users age fourteen and fifteen. Now,
(01:06):
Snap is accused of failing to comply with these requirements
and using addictive design features such as infinite scrolling, push notifications,
interactive metrics that promote compulsive use among teenagers, continuing, you know,
contributing to a mental health crisis. I mean, these kids
get on social media, and this is a danger is
(01:27):
they get addicted very quickly to social media. And then
kids react to social media and people say mean things
to them. Trust me, if I looked at my ex
account and something I posted is going to be shot
under your dome as a door naib, and you know
whatever else they want to say. I even got accused
of being a CIA operator recently, which was pretty funny
to me. But then you have other issues where kids
(01:51):
are being bullied or targeted by these pervert adults that
are posing as other children, and we have those cases
that we have to deal with anyway. So in Florida,
what the Attorney General here's trying to do is seek
to compel Snap to comply with the law address their
deceptive practices. And then they do this other thing which
(02:11):
is really sneaky. They literally come up with how do
you describe this? They will analyze any user's patterns and
then target things that they think or believe that you'll
be interested in as a means of drawing you in
deeper and deeper and deeper into the use of their
(02:32):
app and anyway, the complaint, if you read it, details
how snapchats design features, including messaging, beauty filters, algorithms. The
algorithms are what help addict people are harming young people
by fostering behavioral addiction, body formia, and to exposure to
(02:52):
inappropriate content. And again they're also being targeted by people
that have well beyond nefarious intentions. And it does highlight
these deceptive age ratings and misleading claims about the platform
safety despite hosting mature content such as profanity, drug references,
sexual material, dangerous themes. I mean, what's on social media
(03:13):
is just too much. And if you're a parent, you've
got to be paying attention to what these kids do.
The other thing about snapchat is you can design it
that Okay, they receive a message and poof, it just disappears.
And if your mom and dad and you look at
what your kids might be doing on social media, it's
long gone before you ever get to that phone, and
you've got predators and drug dealers and other potential harmful
(03:37):
interactions facilitated by their features like snap map or fine Friends. Anyway,
the Attorney General of Florida. James Authmeyer's with us right now. James,
how are you, sir, mister Attorney General. Great to have
you back.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I'm doing great, Sean. It's a pleasure to be here
as always. Thanks for having me all right.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
This really is something I don't think parents are full
tuned into. I don't think they understand how their kids
and these algorithms target their kids, get their kids addicted.
The danger for these predators that are on there, the
fact that these social media companies don't often enforce quote
even written stated policies.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
So what's going on?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah you said it. Well, parents at home, if you
are not already in tuned to what your your kids
are looking at the applications they're using, wake up, please
get get involved. It is very dangerous out there. We've
got evidence that these companies they they want to make
the sites more addictive. They've got the never ending scrolls,
the videos that start on their own, push notifications throughout
(04:42):
the day to keep kids engaged, and and incentives to
try to ensure communications are ongoing for hours a day.
And then they've got these these features like the disappearing
messages and pictures that make snap in particular a preferred
site for danger sex offenders. We've got a case I
(05:02):
just talked about at a press conference today where we
saw that a registered sex offender who'd been out of
incarceration for months was impersonating other people online, trying to
seduce pictures out of out of young people. And a
lot of these people they try to, you know, schedule
meetings with kids. It is dangerous. I can't say enough
(05:22):
to scare people at home, you know, get involved, make
the tough decision, you know, is this the appropriate age
for my child to be using this app in the
first place. And we you know, the law we passed
last year HB three made clear that we do not
want young teenagers, you know, twelve thirteen years old. They
are not permitted to have access to these sites. And
the companies need to make sure that there are proper
(05:45):
screening and protocols in place. And if you know, if
you're fourteen fifteen, you can have access, but it must
only be after parental approval where parents consent, and then
you know, have the opportunity to look at controls and
monitoring options that could be provided.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
How bad is it in terms of these companies really
don't seem to care. In other words, there are very
very specific issues that are addressed in the law as
which is my understanding Florida Law HB three and it's
under the Florida Deceptive Unfair Trade Practices Act. Are they
(06:24):
just not caring or paying attention at all? Are they
making any effort at all whatsoever to adhere to the law.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, I don't want to treat all of them the same.
There are companies that have reached out and they want
to protect kids. They do. I don't believe everybody out
here is secretly hoping to help child sex predators. But
you do have companies that after the law was passed
and signed by our governor, they have not taken the
proper measures to ensure that they are adhering to the
(06:56):
law and that they are ultimately protecting kids. And again,
SNAP is potentially one of the worst defenders. They want
to make the side addictive, They want to attract kids
to be on there as much as possible. They're profiting
off of, you know, the eyeball attention day in and
day out, and they they know the risks with the
(07:17):
disappearing messages and the opportunity for predators to come in
and send things to kids where the kids click and
don't even know what's going to be on the other side,
and they allow it to happen, and we're not going
to stand for that. We're going to hold them accountable,
and we're going to make sure that, you know, we
are the safest state in the country when it comes
to protecting families.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
All right, let's talk a little bit.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
If there have been any conversations with these companies and
the lead up to this that caused you to take
this action.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
There have been, and you know, we're looking at multiple companies.
We issued some you know, CID investigative letters last week
in the Roadblocks, the company that young people can get
into in a social setting to play games, and we
believe that they also could be doing more to prevent
older people from pretending to be kids and you know,
conversing with other people in a dangerous fashion. So we
(08:06):
have had conversations, will continue to have conversations. You know, me, Sean,
I'm not looking for government to unnecessarily get in the
way of business and try to take a pound of flesh.
That's not the goal. But I do believe government has
a responsibility in limited areas to step in when there
are very serious dangers, especially to our most vulnerable like
(08:26):
our kids. So we will continue talking to the companies.
Hopefully the idea is not to just shut the company
down entirely. However, you know, we want to see some
changes made.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Okay, And when you have these conversations, do you think
most parents are aware? And tell me if I'm wrong
about Snapchat. It's not an app that I use. But
my understanding is you send messages to people and you
can time out. It's a time it out, so it
rases either immediately or in thirty seconds or in a
minute or two minutes. So another in words of a parent,
(09:01):
wanted to know what their child was communicating with in
regards to somebody else, or or do a background check
in some capacity and find out whether or not this
is a legitimate thirteen, fourteen, fifteen year old. They wouldn't
be able to do that, would they.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
They would not. No, I don't think parents fully understand
what's going on on some of these sites. You know,
snap is very different from Facebook, and Facebook is very
different from some of the gaming sites. But you you
said it correctly, And I've never personally had a Snapchat
account either. I think maybe I was supposed to be
born in another generation. But yeah, these videos and pictures
(09:39):
and things can be sent if you don't have your
settings adjusted the right way. They can be sent to
people from anonymous other users, people that they don't have
a prior relationship with. It's not a friend from school,
it's not a family member, and without any screening, all
of a sudden, this pictures up on the screen and
it can be some horrific things. So parents should know
(10:01):
it's very difficult to track and monitor what's happening when
these things disappear. That's why child predators like it. And
you need to be very plugged in.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Oh you really do.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
All right, quick break, we'll come back more with the
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeyer on the other side. Also
your calls coming up. Eight hundred and nine to four
to one, Shawn, As we continue straight ahead the radio show,
the mainstream media Love State.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
All right, we continue now with the Attorney General my
free state of Florida.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
James Uthmeyer's with us. All right.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I noticed that and I had the governor on recently,
and it's very frustrating to me to hear that Republicans
in Tallahassee are fighting him on the agenda that they
all ran on. And I find that very frustrating. And
there seems to be i don't know, like a mini
Republican rebellion going on. And I've noticed they tried to
(11:00):
drag you into this and are attacking you lately, and
I'm wondering, Okay, who side are you on here?
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Can you tell us what's going on?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
You know, with the big problems we have in our country,
especially focused on crime and immigration, you'd think everybody would
come together and want to fight for the things voters
elected them to go to Tallahassee and do. But you know,
as you know, we've got our own swamp in Tallahassee,
and you have private interests that are out and about.
You know, I'm getting attacked because I worked on the
(11:29):
outside to fight the dangerous Amendment three, the unrestricted marijuana
use in public that was presented last year. A lot
of big marijuana companies don't like that, but at the
end of the day, this was not marijuana use in private.
I think that's a completely different story. And of course
we've got a medicinal market where people can use it
for medical reasons. It's not easy to get it if
(11:50):
you need it. But here this would have been unrestricted,
where it would been restaurants, theaters, parks, probably even schools,
And I don't think that's good for the state. We've
got a really good thing going in here in Florida,
as you know, as a new resident, and you know,
I want to protect the way of life that we've got.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Well, I'm not exactly a new there's my second full
time year here, but I've had property here going back
like twenty five of twenty seven years, so I'm not
exactly a newbie. I've been a big Florida fan, but
you know, family issues kept me in a state that
I didn't want to be in for way too long
a period of time.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah. Well, we're glad to have you down here. That
the state's doing well. We've got a great economy, you know,
some of the number one school systems in the country.
Under the governor's leadership, we've really moved to a great place.
And I hope our state leaders will will come in
and continue the great traditions we've started. The states in
great fiscal shape. You know, we're fighting about a tax
(12:45):
cut that the governor really wants to focus on property taxes.
That will you know more, you know, more directly focused
on Florida residents, as opposed to a sales tax cut
that could help out a lot of the tourists. We
love the tourists, but if they want to come here
and money, we'll take it. We'd rather focus the savings
on Florida citizens.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
What do you think.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I loved the Governor's proposal when he was on the
last time. He thought that property tax taxes, especially in
the post COVID years, have gone up so dramatically that
a lot of these local municipalities have doubled their budgets,
and he thinks that there can be a significant reduction
in property taxes, but that would be a referendum that
(13:27):
voters would would weigh in on in I guess November
of twenty six. I love the idea, and he talked
about other ways to replace that revenue, for example, with
all the tourists and all the visitors that come to Florida.
And I can tell you whenever I go anywhere else,
I mean that they hit outside people outside that state
really really hard. And it seems appropriate to me rather
(13:49):
than you know, tax the people of the Free State
of Florida. I'd rather people that visit Florida pay a
little bit more.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah, you're right. I mean, we've got counties now that
are bringing in three four times the revenues that they
did in the pre COVID world, and their budgets have
not not increased. In fact, you know, some of the
budgets you know, have been able to decrease as you know,
local governments take advantage of technology and find economies of
scale and things of that sort. So we need to
get that money back in the pockets of our homeowners. Yes,
(14:18):
it would take a ballot initiative. I think the governor,
you know, he would like to see a comprehensive study
done this year that could wrap up for legislative session
early next year where we could come up with the
right amendment get it on the ballot. I have no
doubt the voters at home would like to see this
relief and would vote for it overwhelmingly, and you know,
prevent people from from facing these really you know, significant
(14:42):
taxes that make it tough to live, you know, especially
if you're a middle income family in some of the
South Florida markets.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
And by the way, if there is a referendum, and
there were two defeated in the last election, But if
there is, and I was with the governor, I supported
his position on both of those. But if there is
a referendum, unlowering Time says you need sixty percent of
Floridians to vote for that.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Who would ever vote for higher property taxes? You have
to be out of your mind.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You're right, it would pass overwhelmingly. So I think we
have state leaders. We've got the obligation to come up
with a good plan and get it to the voters.
But hey, look we're fighting about tax relief. That's what
we're dealing with in Florida. We got good times coming,
better times ahead, and I'm excited to see what our
state's going to do in the future.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Oh, as usual, Florida's leading the way. It cracks me
up every time I interview with Dake Ramaswami, he basically
starts reiterating every policy adopted in Florida. I'm like, oh,
you're trying to compete with my state. Very interesting anyway, Jamesthmeier,
appreciate you being with US Attorney General. Great state, fre
State of Florida. Please check in often and we'll follow
this case very closely. You may not know that a
(15:49):
violent crime, sadly is committed in America every twenty six seconds.
That's a violent crime. Now, these criminals, as you can
see in the news every day, every night, they're getting
bolder a broken legal system. They can end up punishing
innocent people just defending themselves rather than protecting you. And
that's one of the main reasons why the us CCA exists.
(16:11):
And they offer access to self defense liability insurance. They
also have training and firearm education. And if that God
forbid moment ever comes, trouble comes, they will be with you.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
All right, twenty five now til the top of the hour.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Eight hundred and nine to four one, Shawn is a
number you want to be a part of the program.
I met doctor Roland about a year ago. And if
you go back to COVID, remember we discovered a lot
of the medicines that we desperately needed were not readily available.
And then we realize that a lot of our medicines,
basic medicines were being produced by China and other countries,
(17:29):
some that are top geopolitical foes. Anyway, Jase Medical, thanks
to doctor Roland and others, there has to be a
better way to do this, and they figured it out.
And we've been looking for the right partner for this
now for a long time. And this is the company
you can trust for your medication supply, not some overseas
(17:53):
Chinese supplier for example. And they have what I think
everybody needs in their household. It is called the Jase case.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
I just got.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Mine, and in it you will have emergency for example,
prescription and antibiotics before you need them, meaning that you
and your family will be prepared. It's fast, it's affordable,
it's incredibly easy, and a doctor will approve it. Once
your medication is approved, they'll ship it directly to your door. Now,
(18:23):
why is this smart to do?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Linda?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You've done it as well, and there are a whole
variety of medicines you can choose from.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Did do it? And here's the thing, It's so simple
and there's nothing more important to me. I met, you know,
doctor Rowland as well. He was at an event that
we did with the network. This guy's got four kids,
his partner's got kids. They know what it's like to
go through something like COVID where you don't have access
to the medicines that you need, and they make sure
that you can get it. Gonna I'm gonna tell you
(18:50):
it's easy, and it comes in a great case. It's
easy to take with you on a trip, and you
have everything you need one, two, three, and no interference
from anybody else.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
All right.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
And by the way, with Jay's case, you're gonna have,
for example, emergency prescription antibiotics before you need the one
if you need him on a weekend in the middle
of the night. Guess what You'll be prepared, your family
will be prepared. It's fast, affordable, incredibly easy. Get your

Hannity Today. All right, very very important. Right, So I
mentioned this earlier. Elizabeth Warren was on some podcast and
I thought it very very interesting.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Who's podcast? Sam Fragoso? Is that how you say? It's
called talk Easy?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
And anyways, she's on this podcast and anyway, and you know,
he points out, you know, you set up until July
last year, noting that Warren was backing Biden up until
he about out of the twenty twenty four presidential race,
and asking about his cognitive state. Now, there's no way
anybody with a straight face and any level of intelligence
(20:05):
is ever going to convince me that they didn't see
everything that we were reporting since twenty twenty and that
is Joe's significant cognitive decline. And let me have played
the exchange for you.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Do you regret saying that President Biden had a mental acuity,
he had a sharpness to him. You said that up
until July of last year, I said what I believed
to be true, and you think he was as sharp
as you.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
I said I had not seen decline, and I hadn't
at that point.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
You did not see any decline from twenty twenty four
Joe Biden to twenty twenty one Joe Biden when I said.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
That the thing is heap. Look, he was sharp. He
was on his feet. I saw him, Oh y live event.
I had meetings with him a couple of times.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Senator on his feet is not praise. He can speak
in sentences, is not praised.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Fair enough, fair.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Enough, fair enough, fair enough. He was a cognitive mess
and she knew it. That's why she's a hummed a hummada,
hummada humma in that interview. Uh, funny viral video. I
saw this on Foxnews dot com.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
You know, now, Chucky Schumer and his poll numbers that
came out today are just abysmal. He's getting slaughtered by
AOC in New York. He's in he's in deep political trouble.
His days may be numbered, but anyway, it's gone viral,
this old video of Schumer. Uh, he knew that Trump
was going to go places and people are you know,
(21:46):
just caught onto it, and I'm playing a lot of it.
Here's here anyway, here's what was said.
Speaker 8 (21:52):
I was born in Brooklyn, the same place where Donald
Trump's family comes from. His father and my grandfather builders
together in Brooklyn. Yeah, even when he was much younger,
you knew that he was going to go places.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, you knew he was going to go Yeah, he
went to the White House, and you're about to be
thrown out of the Senate in New York. Anyway, his
favorable rating now thirty nine percent, unfavorable rating fifty percent.
This according to the latest Siena College poll that came
out now.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
It happens to be the.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Worst showing by Schumer in over twenty years that Siena
College has been conducting polls in New York State. And
while his unfavorable rating, you know, it's more than sixty
six percent, he saw his standing with Democrats fall dramatically.
And meanwhile, simultaneously, AOC's numbers they're just beginning to soar.
(22:46):
And I think people aliking the idea of AOC maybe
replacing Schumer if she decides not to run for president
in the US Senate. So that's getting interesting. All right,
let's get to our busy phones. Joe, Long Island's speaking
in New York. What's up, Joe? How are you glad
you called, sir? Where are you in Long Island?
Speaker 9 (23:04):
Pretty good? One over in Seaviel.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
But no, I lived there for a while, in Bayport.
Not right next door to you, right, yeah, right next
door there.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Then when I started at Fox, I lived out in Bayport,
and I took the train every day, the Long Island Railroad.
It was a long trip every day, uh, and we
would save o saveles, next savel And then I became
friends with the conductor and he used to let me
some nights do it on you know, on the loud speaker.
I'd be like, all right, savelel next next up, saveles
(23:34):
coming up.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
That's how he'd say. It's pretty funny.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Yep.
Speaker 9 (23:37):
No, I don't envy you. I actually drive it. I'd
rather do that than take the train.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
But but well, I eventually got chased from car to
car to car by some lunatic screaming that I'm ruining
the world, and I realized my days going on uh
public transportation were over. And then I started to make
the drive every day, which is a pretty long ride.
Speaker 9 (23:58):
Yeah, I'm calling anyway, because you know, I've been teaching
for about thirty years or so, and you know, come
across over the years, a lot of students that taught
first in Patterson for a number of years and then
New York City, a lot of students that get involved
with gangs. And I know that, you know, everybody talks
(24:18):
about with mister Braco Garcia or some of these you
know other illegal immigrants here that well, they don't have
the look of looking like a gang member. But you know,
because they don't have specific tattoos, they don't have specific
marketings on them. But that's not necessarily you know, what
a gang member looks like. I remember back in pre
(24:42):
nine eleven days.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
The tattoos that have become such a big issue. They're
really it's only one indicator of what are many indicators.
And in the case of Garcia, I mean there were
numerous indicators, including people that ratted them out exactly.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
And you know we used to have in Patterson. There
used to be this big gang, the Latin Kings, and
we had.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
This I know them well, I mean I remember, you know,
they were a menace, no doubt about it.
Speaker 9 (25:14):
Yeah, but we had this one student, and he was
a honor student. He's very polite and very respectful, came
very well dressed to school every day. And then we
had one day in school police came in and came
into the classroom, took him out of the class, and
the rested him because it ended up that he was
(25:35):
one of the regional leaders of the Latin Kings. And
I remember that day we were all like in shock
because you know, you never would have suspected, like I said,
based on he was an honor student straight A's the
way he dressed, the way he was respectful to the
teachers and everything, and yet you know behind the scenes
(25:57):
he was very active with the Latin Kings like that.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
So you can't always judge a book by its cover.
I mean, there's there's no doubt. Now do I think
that some of the images and pictures that I've seen
of these heavily tatted, face tatted guys, that does it
necessarily mean they're bad? People know, if they have MS
thirteen or trendy Arragua insigny is tattooed into them, I'd
(26:23):
say that's probably a pretty good indicator. I doubt the
average person is going to go to a tattoo artist
and say, can I have an MS thirteen gang member tattoo?
I think that would be very very specific for an
individual involved in the gang. But again, it's only one factor,
and it's not the determining factor.
Speaker 9 (26:42):
No, exactly. And that's why I wouldn't be surprised, you know,
when things eventually come out, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I think we already know the answer to what you're
what you're bringing up here. I think that this we
have two judges determined and ascertain. Number one, we know
he's in the country illegally. We know in his wife's
own handwriting and complaint to police, she claimed he was
a wife beater. And we have two judges that determined
that he was a member of MS thirteen. What else
(27:12):
do you need? And why has this become the cause
to love for Democrats? That's the sick part, all right?
My friend, appreciate the call. Glad you are out there.
Mark and North Carolina? Hey, Mark, how are you? Glad
you called?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
What's going on as far as Kilmar goes. Don't we
have an embassy in El Salvador?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
I believe we do.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Yes, Yeah, aren't embassies considered US soil.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Um, yes, and no, I'm not. I'm not.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I can't really not necessarily, not necessary. It's not like
the Panama Canal Zone where John McCain was born. Remember,
you have to be a naturalized citizen to be able
to run for president. I'm not sure that that would
qualify unless you you were an ambassador and your child
was born there. I would assume that implies American citizenship
(28:09):
and would apply in that case.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Well, if you're in trouble in a foreign country, you
go to the US embassy because American soil, it's deemed
as American soil, because.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
It is deemed as an American America Protected area. Do
I know specifically if it's considered American soil? I don't.
I think in some cases it's not. I remember this
came up a number of years ago. But for all
intent and purposes, I understand for the application of this call,
let's say you're.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Right, okay, then why not send anough because I think
this would be so much easier. Send another immigration judge
down to the embassy and bring Willmar Killmar over there
and have him adjudicated there instead of bringing him back
to the United States proper.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
He was already Judah twice. I mean, this is the
big lie.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
This would make what's his name from Maryland happy?
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Oh, nothing's going to make this guy happy unless he
comes back to the US. But I guarantee you one
thing that's not going to happen. Let's say, if if
these four congressmen and ven Holland are successful, I can
promise you one thing that Garcia is not going to
live with any five of them. He's not going to
be invited to stay in their home. And then you
have to ask the question, well, why not? And I
think the answer is obvious, and I think it speaks volumes.
(29:29):
There are all a bunch of hypocrites. I appreciate you
call Ken in California. Ken, How are you glad you called?
By the way, we have a lot of news out
of California today. You want to hear it?
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (29:39):
All right?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
So Gavin Newsome, your governor, your radical left wing governor,
spoke to the Hill this week complaining that the party,
the Democratic Party, is not reckoned with their failures in
the twenty twenty four election, is unsure of what it
stood for. I don't know what the party is I'm
still struggling with that. He further commented that I'm marginally
part of this party. I represent the state larger than
(30:03):
twenty one state populations combined. I can assure you there's
not been a party discussion that I'm aware of that
has included the state of California. I think what he's
trying to do is positioned himself for maybe some type
of run for the presidency. He's got all eyes on
the presidency. But he's got a big problem. He's got
a record, and his record is radical left. But if
(30:25):
he wants to run, either as a Democrat or independent,
I'm fine with it because I think he'd easily be defeated.
I'll give you another story just thenews dot com John Solomon.
He may have some explaining to do, if you will,
about the people he appointed to the parole board, because
the California Border Parole Hearings just ordered the release of
(30:47):
a convicted child murderer, this guy, mister Herrera, who was
found to have beaten his girlfriend's two year old son
to death, and k Newsom's parole board claimed that Herrera
had shown remorse and is no longer a risk to public.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Say, I think he's got a lot of explaining to do.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
But anyway, that's the news from Lake Wobegone, the United
Socialist Topia that is your home state of California.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Well, Gavin Newsom's a dang chameleon. He changes color with
whatever tree he's attached to.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
You know.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
The sad reality is he'd probably still today get elected
if he was running for reelection. If Kamala runs, I
think she'll win. That's sad. That tells me that anybody
with any common sense left and there's just not enough
people in California with enough common sense to realize that
(31:39):
this blue state and Democrat dominated state for decades has
hurt the people of their own state.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Well, where I'm at up in the mountains, Larry Elder
won the recall in our county.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
So yeah, well, I mean he would have been a
great governor in my opinion, he really would have. Anyway,
my friend, I appreciate the call. Good luck out there
watching Gavin, you know, try and be slick and smooth
and somehow reinvent himself. Is going to be fun to watch.
That's going to wrap things up for today. Hannity Tonight,

videos you won't get from the mainstream, state run legacy
media Mob nine Eastern Hannity on Fox. We'll see them
back here tomorrow. Thank you for making this show possible.
Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
All Right News round Up, Information Overload. Our toll free
art number is eight hundred and nine four one sean
if you want to be a part of the program. Now,
with all the law fare and judge shopping and weaponization
that we have witnessed from the left, there are some
(00:21):
state attorneys general that are fighting back. We now have
in my free state of Florida, the next steps to
protect your children, and the Attorney General James Utmeyer is
going to join us in just a minute, has now
filed a lawsuit against Snap Inc. They're the operator of Snapchat,
which a lot of kids use, alleging violations of Florida law,
(00:44):
specifically HB three in the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade
Practices Act. And the complaint is asserting that Snap has
knowingly defied HB three, which prohibits social media platforms from
providing accounts to you who's under fourteen years of age
and requires parental consent for users age fourteen and fifteen. Now,
(01:06):
Snap is accused of failing to comply with these requirements
and using addictive design features such as infinite scrolling, push notifications,
interactive metrics that promote compulsive use among teenagers, continuing, you know,
contributing to a mental health crisis. I mean, these kids
get on social media, and this is a danger is
(01:27):
they get addicted very quickly to social media. And then
kids react to social media and people say mean things
to them. Trust me, if I looked at my ex
account and something I posted is going to be shot
under your dome as a door naib, and you know
whatever else they want to say. I even got accused
of being a CIA operator recently, which was pretty funny
to me. But then you have other issues where kids
(01:51):
are being bullied or targeted by these pervert adults that
are posing as other children, and we have those cases
that we have to deal with anyway. So in Florida,
what the Attorney General here's trying to do is seek
to compel Snap to comply with the law address their
deceptive practices. And then they do this other thing which
(02:11):
is really sneaky. They literally come up with how do
you describe this? They will analyze any user's patterns and
then target things that they think or believe that you'll
be interested in as a means of drawing you in
deeper and deeper and deeper into the use of their
(02:32):
app and anyway, the complaint, if you read it, details
how snapchats design features, including messaging, beauty filters, algorithms. The
algorithms are what help addict people are harming young people
by fostering behavioral addiction, body formia, and to exposure to
(02:52):
inappropriate content. And again they're also being targeted by people
that have well beyond nefarious intentions. And it does highlight
these deceptive age ratings and misleading claims about the platform
safety despite hosting mature content such as profanity, drug references,
sexual material, dangerous themes. I mean, what's on social media
(03:13):
is just too much. And if you're a parent, you've
got to be paying attention to what these kids do.
The other thing about snapchat is you can design it
that Okay, they receive a message and poof, it just disappears.
And if your mom and dad and you look at
what your kids might be doing on social media, it's
long gone before you ever get to that phone, and
you've got predators and drug dealers and other potential harmful
(03:37):
interactions facilitated by their features like snap map or fine Friends. Anyway,
the Attorney General of Florida. James Authmeyer's with us right now. James,
how are you, sir, mister Attorney General. Great to have
you back.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I'm doing great, Sean. It's a pleasure to be here
as always. Thanks for having me all right.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
This really is something I don't think parents are full
tuned into. I don't think they understand how their kids
and these algorithms target their kids, get their kids addicted.
The danger for these predators that are on there, the
fact that these social media companies don't often enforce quote
even written stated policies.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
So what's going on?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah you said it. Well, parents at home, if you
are not already in tuned to what your your kids
are looking at the applications they're using, wake up, please
get get involved. It is very dangerous out there. We've
got evidence that these companies they they want to make
the sites more addictive. They've got the never ending scrolls,
the videos that start on their own, push notifications throughout
(04:42):
the day to keep kids engaged, and and incentives to
try to ensure communications are ongoing for hours a day.
And then they've got these these features like the disappearing
messages and pictures that make snap in particular a preferred
site for danger sex offenders. We've got a case I
(05:02):
just talked about at a press conference today where we
saw that a registered sex offender who'd been out of
incarceration for months was impersonating other people online, trying to
seduce pictures out of out of young people. And a
lot of these people they try to, you know, schedule
meetings with kids. It is dangerous. I can't say enough
(05:22):
to scare people at home, you know, get involved, make
the tough decision, you know, is this the appropriate age
for my child to be using this app in the
first place. And we you know, the law we passed
last year HB three made clear that we do not
want young teenagers, you know, twelve thirteen years old. They
are not permitted to have access to these sites. And
the companies need to make sure that there are proper
(05:45):
screening and protocols in place. And if you know, if
you're fourteen fifteen, you can have access, but it must
only be after parental approval where parents consent, and then
you know, have the opportunity to look at controls and
monitoring options that could be provided.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
How bad is it in terms of these companies really
don't seem to care. In other words, there are very
very specific issues that are addressed in the law as
which is my understanding Florida Law HB three and it's
under the Florida Deceptive Unfair Trade Practices Act. Are they
(06:24):
just not caring or paying attention at all? Are they
making any effort at all whatsoever to adhere to the law.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah, I don't want to treat all of them the same.
There are companies that have reached out and they want
to protect kids. They do. I don't believe everybody out
here is secretly hoping to help child sex predators. But
you do have companies that after the law was passed
and signed by our governor, they have not taken the
proper measures to ensure that they are adhering to the
(06:56):
law and that they are ultimately protecting kids. And again,
SNAP is potentially one of the worst defenders. They want
to make the side addictive, They want to attract kids
to be on there as much as possible. They're profiting
off of, you know, the eyeball attention day in and
day out, and they they know the risks with the
(07:17):
disappearing messages and the opportunity for predators to come in
and send things to kids where the kids click and
don't even know what's going to be on the other side,
and they allow it to happen, and we're not going
to stand for that. We're going to hold them accountable,
and we're going to make sure that, you know, we
are the safest state in the country when it comes
to protecting families.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
All right, let's talk a little bit.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
If there have been any conversations with these companies and
the lead up to this that caused you to take
this action.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
There have been, and you know, we're looking at multiple companies.
We issued some you know, CID investigative letters last week
in the Roadblocks, the company that young people can get
into in a social setting to play games, and we
believe that they also could be doing more to prevent
older people from pretending to be kids and you know,
conversing with other people in a dangerous fashion. So we
(08:06):
have had conversations, will continue to have conversations. You know, me, Sean,
I'm not looking for government to unnecessarily get in the
way of business and try to take a pound of flesh.
That's not the goal. But I do believe government has
a responsibility in limited areas to step in when there
are very serious dangers, especially to our most vulnerable like
(08:26):
our kids. So we will continue talking to the companies.
Hopefully the idea is not to just shut the company
down entirely. However, you know, we want to see some
changes made.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Okay, And when you have these conversations, do you think
most parents are aware? And tell me if I'm wrong
about Snapchat. It's not an app that I use. But
my understanding is you send messages to people and you
can time out. It's a time it out, so it
rases either immediately or in thirty seconds or in a
minute or two minutes. So another in words of a parent,
(09:01):
wanted to know what their child was communicating with in
regards to somebody else, or or do a background check
in some capacity and find out whether or not this
is a legitimate thirteen, fourteen, fifteen year old. They wouldn't
be able to do that, would they.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
They would not. No, I don't think parents fully understand
what's going on on some of these sites. You know,
snap is very different from Facebook, and Facebook is very
different from some of the gaming sites. But you you
said it correctly, And I've never personally had a Snapchat
account either. I think maybe I was supposed to be
born in another generation. But yeah, these videos and pictures
(09:39):
and things can be sent if you don't have your
settings adjusted the right way. They can be sent to
people from anonymous other users, people that they don't have
a prior relationship with. It's not a friend from school,
it's not a family member, and without any screening, all
of a sudden, this pictures up on the screen and
it can be some horrific things. So parents should know
(10:01):
it's very difficult to track and monitor what's happening when
these things disappear. That's why child predators like it. And
you need to be very plugged in.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Oh you really do.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
All right, quick break, we'll come back more with the
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeyer on the other side. Also
your calls coming up. Eight hundred and nine to four
to one, Shawn, As we continue straight ahead the radio show,
the mainstream media Love State.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
All right, we continue now with the Attorney General my
free state of Florida.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
James Uthmeyer's with us. All right.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I noticed that and I had the governor on recently,
and it's very frustrating to me to hear that Republicans
in Tallahassee are fighting him on the agenda that they
all ran on. And I find that very frustrating. And
there seems to be i don't know, like a mini
Republican rebellion going on. And I've noticed they tried to
(11:00):
drag you into this and are attacking you lately, and
I'm wondering, Okay, who side are you on here?
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Can you tell us what's going on?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
You know, with the big problems we have in our country,
especially focused on crime and immigration, you'd think everybody would
come together and want to fight for the things voters
elected them to go to Tallahassee and do. But you know,
as you know, we've got our own swamp in Tallahassee,
and you have private interests that are out and about.
You know, I'm getting attacked because I worked on the
(11:29):
outside to fight the dangerous Amendment three, the unrestricted marijuana
use in public that was presented last year. A lot
of big marijuana companies don't like that, but at the
end of the day, this was not marijuana use in private.
I think that's a completely different story. And of course
we've got a medicinal market where people can use it
for medical reasons. It's not easy to get it if
(11:50):
you need it. But here this would have been unrestricted,
where it would been restaurants, theaters, parks, probably even schools,
And I don't think that's good for the state. We've
got a really good thing going in here in Florida,
as you know, as a new resident, and you know,
I want to protect the way of life that we've got.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Well, I'm not exactly a new there's my second full
time year here, but I've had property here going back
like twenty five of twenty seven years, so I'm not
exactly a newbie. I've been a big Florida fan, but
you know, family issues kept me in a state that
I didn't want to be in for way too long
a period of time.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yeah. Well, we're glad to have you down here. That
the state's doing well. We've got a great economy, you know,
some of the number one school systems in the country.
Under the governor's leadership, we've really moved to a great place.
And I hope our state leaders will will come in
and continue the great traditions we've started. The states in
great fiscal shape. You know, we're fighting about a tax
(12:45):
cut that the governor really wants to focus on property taxes.
That will you know more, you know, more directly focused
on Florida residents, as opposed to a sales tax cut
that could help out a lot of the tourists. We
love the tourists, but if they want to come here
and money, we'll take it. We'd rather focus the savings
on Florida citizens.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
What do you think.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I loved the Governor's proposal when he was on the
last time. He thought that property tax taxes, especially in
the post COVID years, have gone up so dramatically that
a lot of these local municipalities have doubled their budgets,
and he thinks that there can be a significant reduction
in property taxes, but that would be a referendum that
(13:27):
voters would would weigh in on in I guess November
of twenty six. I love the idea, and he talked
about other ways to replace that revenue, for example, with
all the tourists and all the visitors that come to Florida.
And I can tell you whenever I go anywhere else,
I mean that they hit outside people outside that state
really really hard. And it seems appropriate to me rather
(13:49):
than you know, tax the people of the Free State
of Florida. I'd rather people that visit Florida pay a
little bit more.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah, you're right. I mean, we've got counties now that
are bringing in three four times the revenues that they
did in the pre COVID world, and their budgets have
not not increased. In fact, you know, some of the
budgets you know, have been able to decrease as you know,
local governments take advantage of technology and find economies of
scale and things of that sort. So we need to
get that money back in the pockets of our homeowners. Yes,
(14:18):
it would take a ballot initiative. I think the governor,
you know, he would like to see a comprehensive study
done this year that could wrap up for legislative session
early next year where we could come up with the
right amendment get it on the ballot. I have no
doubt the voters at home would like to see this
relief and would vote for it overwhelmingly, and you know,
prevent people from from facing these really you know, significant
(14:42):
taxes that make it tough to live, you know, especially
if you're a middle income family in some of the
South Florida markets.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
And by the way, if there is a referendum, and
there were two defeated in the last election, But if
there is, and I was with the governor, I supported
his position on both of those. But if there is
a referendum, unlowering Time says you need sixty percent of
Floridians to vote for that.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Who would ever vote for higher property taxes? You have
to be out of your mind.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You're right, it would pass overwhelmingly. So I think we
have state leaders. We've got the obligation to come up
with a good plan and get it to the voters.
But hey, look we're fighting about tax relief. That's what
we're dealing with in Florida. We got good times coming,
better times ahead, and I'm excited to see what our
state's going to do in the future.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Oh, as usual, Florida's leading the way. It cracks me
up every time I interview with Dake Ramaswami, he basically
starts reiterating every policy adopted in Florida. I'm like, oh,
you're trying to compete with my state. Very interesting anyway, Jamesthmeier,
appreciate you being with US Attorney General. Great state, fre
State of Florida. Please check in often and we'll follow
this case very closely. You may not know that a
(15:49):
violent crime, sadly is committed in America every twenty six seconds.
That's a violent crime. Now, these criminals, as you can
see in the news every day, every night, they're getting
bolder a broken legal system. They can end up punishing
innocent people just defending themselves rather than protecting you. And
that's one of the main reasons why the us CCA exists.
(16:11):
And they offer access to self defense liability insurance. They
also have training and firearm education. And if that God

All right, twenty five now til the top of the hour.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Eight hundred and nine to four one, Shawn is a
number you want to be a part of the program.
I met doctor Roland about a year ago. And if
you go back to COVID, remember we discovered a lot
of the medicines that we desperately needed were not readily available.
And then we realize that a lot of our medicines,
basic medicines were being produced by China and other countries,
(17:29):
some that are top geopolitical foes. Anyway, Jase Medical, thanks
to doctor Roland and others, there has to be a
better way to do this, and they figured it out.
And we've been looking for the right partner for this
now for a long time. And this is the company
you can trust for your medication supply, not some overseas
(17:53):
Chinese supplier for example. And they have what I think
everybody needs in their household. It is called the Jase case.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
I just got.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Mine, and in it you will have emergency for example,
prescription and antibiotics before you need them, meaning that you
and your family will be prepared. It's fast, it's affordable,
it's incredibly easy, and a doctor will approve it. Once
your medication is approved, they'll ship it directly to your door. Now,
(18:23):
why is this smart to do?
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Linda?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You've done it as well, and there are a whole
variety of medicines you can choose from.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Did do it? And here's the thing, It's so simple
and there's nothing more important to me. I met, you know,
doctor Rowland as well. He was at an event that
we did with the network. This guy's got four kids,
his partner's got kids. They know what it's like to
go through something like COVID where you don't have access
to the medicines that you need, and they make sure
that you can get it. Gonna I'm gonna tell you
(18:50):
it's easy, and it comes in a great case. It's
easy to take with you on a trip, and you
have everything you need one, two, three, and no interference
from anybody else.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
All right.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
And by the way, with Jay's case, you're gonna have,
for example, emergency prescription antibiotics before you need the one
if you need him on a weekend in the middle
of the night. Guess what You'll be prepared, your family
will be prepared. It's fast, affordable, incredibly easy. Get your

Hannity Today. All right, very very important. Right, So I
mentioned this earlier. Elizabeth Warren was on some podcast and
I thought it very very interesting.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Who's podcast? Sam Fragoso? Is that how you say? It's
called talk Easy?
Speaker 1 (19:43):
And anyways, she's on this podcast and anyway, and you know,
he points out, you know, you set up until July
last year, noting that Warren was backing Biden up until
he about out of the twenty twenty four presidential race,
and asking about his cognitive state. Now, there's no way
anybody with a straight face and any level of intelligence
(20:05):
is ever going to convince me that they didn't see
everything that we were reporting since twenty twenty and that
is Joe's significant cognitive decline. And let me have played
the exchange for you.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Do you regret saying that President Biden had a mental acuity,
he had a sharpness to him. You said that up
until July of last year, I said what I believed
to be true, and you think he was as sharp
as you.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
I said I had not seen decline, and I hadn't
at that point.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
You did not see any decline from twenty twenty four
Joe Biden to twenty twenty one Joe Biden when I said.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
That the thing is heap. Look, he was sharp. He
was on his feet. I saw him, Oh y live event.
I had meetings with him a couple of times.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Senator on his feet is not praise. He can speak
in sentences, is not praised.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Fair enough, fair.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Enough, fair enough, fair enough. He was a cognitive mess
and she knew it. That's why she's a hummed a hummada,
hummada humma in that interview. Uh, funny viral video. I
saw this on Foxnews dot com.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
You know, now, Chucky Schumer and his poll numbers that
came out today are just abysmal. He's getting slaughtered by
AOC in New York. He's in he's in deep political trouble.
His days may be numbered, but anyway, it's gone viral,
this old video of Schumer. Uh, he knew that Trump
was going to go places and people are you know,
(21:46):
just caught onto it, and I'm playing a lot of it.
Here's here anyway, here's what was said.
Speaker 8 (21:52):
I was born in Brooklyn, the same place where Donald
Trump's family comes from. His father and my grandfather builders
together in Brooklyn. Yeah, even when he was much younger,
you knew that he was going to go places.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, you knew he was going to go Yeah, he
went to the White House, and you're about to be
thrown out of the Senate in New York. Anyway, his
favorable rating now thirty nine percent, unfavorable rating fifty percent.
This according to the latest Siena College poll that came
out now.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
It happens to be the.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Worst showing by Schumer in over twenty years that Siena
College has been conducting polls in New York State. And
while his unfavorable rating, you know, it's more than sixty
six percent, he saw his standing with Democrats fall dramatically.
And meanwhile, simultaneously, AOC's numbers they're just beginning to soar.
(22:46):
And I think people aliking the idea of AOC maybe
replacing Schumer if she decides not to run for president
in the US Senate. So that's getting interesting. All right,
let's get to our busy phones. Joe, Long Island's speaking
in New York. What's up, Joe? How are you glad
you called, sir? Where are you in Long Island?
Speaker 9 (23:04):
Pretty good? One over in Seaviel.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
But no, I lived there for a while, in Bayport.
Not right next door to you, right, yeah, right next
door there.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Then when I started at Fox, I lived out in Bayport,
and I took the train every day, the Long Island Railroad.
It was a long trip every day, uh, and we
would save o saveles, next savel And then I became
friends with the conductor and he used to let me
some nights do it on you know, on the loud speaker.
I'd be like, all right, savelel next next up, saveles
(23:34):
coming up.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
That's how he'd say. It's pretty funny.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Yep.
Speaker 9 (23:37):
No, I don't envy you. I actually drive it. I'd
rather do that than take the train.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
But but well, I eventually got chased from car to
car to car by some lunatic screaming that I'm ruining
the world, and I realized my days going on uh
public transportation were over. And then I started to make
the drive every day, which is a pretty long ride.
Speaker 9 (23:58):
Yeah, I'm calling anyway, because you know, I've been teaching
for about thirty years or so, and you know, come
across over the years, a lot of students that taught
first in Patterson for a number of years and then
New York City, a lot of students that get involved
with gangs. And I know that, you know, everybody talks
(24:18):
about with mister Braco Garcia or some of these you
know other illegal immigrants here that well, they don't have
the look of looking like a gang member. But you know,
because they don't have specific tattoos, they don't have specific
marketings on them. But that's not necessarily you know, what
a gang member looks like. I remember back in pre
(24:42):
nine eleven days.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
The tattoos that have become such a big issue. They're
really it's only one indicator of what are many indicators.
And in the case of Garcia, I mean there were
numerous indicators, including people that ratted them out exactly.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
And you know we used to have in Patterson. There
used to be this big gang, the Latin Kings, and
we had.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
This I know them well, I mean I remember, you know,
they were a menace, no doubt about it.
Speaker 9 (25:14):
Yeah, but we had this one student, and he was
a honor student. He's very polite and very respectful, came
very well dressed to school every day. And then we
had one day in school police came in and came
into the classroom, took him out of the class, and
the rested him because it ended up that he was
(25:35):
one of the regional leaders of the Latin Kings. And
I remember that day we were all like in shock
because you know, you never would have suspected, like I said,
based on he was an honor student straight A's the
way he dressed, the way he was respectful to the
teachers and everything, and yet you know behind the scenes
(25:57):
he was very active with the Latin Kings like that.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
So you can't always judge a book by its cover.
I mean, there's there's no doubt. Now do I think
that some of the images and pictures that I've seen
of these heavily tatted, face tatted guys, that does it
necessarily mean they're bad? People know, if they have MS
thirteen or trendy Arragua insigny is tattooed into them, I'd
(26:23):
say that's probably a pretty good indicator. I doubt the
average person is going to go to a tattoo artist
and say, can I have an MS thirteen gang member tattoo?
I think that would be very very specific for an
individual involved in the gang. But again, it's only one factor,
and it's not the determining factor.
Speaker 9 (26:42):
No, exactly. And that's why I wouldn't be surprised, you know,
when things eventually come out, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I think we already know the answer to what you're
what you're bringing up here. I think that this we
have two judges determined and ascertain. Number one, we know
he's in the country illegally. We know in his wife's
own handwriting and complaint to police, she claimed he was
a wife beater. And we have two judges that determined
that he was a member of MS thirteen. What else
(27:12):
do you need? And why has this become the cause
to love for Democrats? That's the sick part, all right?
My friend, appreciate the call. Glad you are out there.
Mark and North Carolina? Hey, Mark, how are you? Glad
you called?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
What's going on as far as Kilmar goes. Don't we
have an embassy in El Salvador?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
I believe we do.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Yes, Yeah, aren't embassies considered US soil.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Um, yes, and no, I'm not. I'm not.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I can't really not necessarily, not necessary. It's not like
the Panama Canal Zone where John McCain was born. Remember,
you have to be a naturalized citizen to be able
to run for president. I'm not sure that that would
qualify unless you you were an ambassador and your child
was born there. I would assume that implies American citizenship
(28:09):
and would apply in that case.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Well, if you're in trouble in a foreign country, you
go to the US embassy because American soil, it's deemed
as American soil, because.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
It is deemed as an American America Protected area. Do
I know specifically if it's considered American soil? I don't.
I think in some cases it's not. I remember this
came up a number of years ago. But for all
intent and purposes, I understand for the application of this call,
let's say you're.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Right, okay, then why not send anough because I think
this would be so much easier. Send another immigration judge
down to the embassy and bring Willmar Killmar over there
and have him adjudicated there instead of bringing him back
to the United States proper.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
He was already Judah twice. I mean, this is the
big lie.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
This would make what's his name from Maryland happy?
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Oh, nothing's going to make this guy happy unless he
comes back to the US. But I guarantee you one
thing that's not going to happen. Let's say, if if
these four congressmen and ven Holland are successful, I can
promise you one thing that Garcia is not going to
live with any five of them. He's not going to
be invited to stay in their home. And then you
have to ask the question, well, why not? And I
think the answer is obvious, and I think it speaks volumes.
(29:29):
There are all a bunch of hypocrites. I appreciate you
call Ken in California. Ken, How are you glad you called?
By the way, we have a lot of news out
of California today. You want to hear it?
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (29:39):
All right?
Speaker 1 (29:40):
So Gavin Newsome, your governor, your radical left wing governor,
spoke to the Hill this week complaining that the party,
the Democratic Party, is not reckoned with their failures in
the twenty twenty four election, is unsure of what it
stood for. I don't know what the party is I'm
still struggling with that. He further commented that I'm marginally
part of this party. I represent the state larger than
(30:03):
twenty one state populations combined. I can assure you there's
not been a party discussion that I'm aware of that
has included the state of California. I think what he's
trying to do is positioned himself for maybe some type
of run for the presidency. He's got all eyes on
the presidency. But he's got a big problem. He's got
a record, and his record is radical left. But if
(30:25):
he wants to run, either as a Democrat or independent,
I'm fine with it because I think he'd easily be defeated.
I'll give you another story just thenews dot com John Solomon.
He may have some explaining to do, if you will,
about the people he appointed to the parole board, because
the California Border Parole Hearings just ordered the release of
(30:47):
a convicted child murderer, this guy, mister Herrera, who was
found to have beaten his girlfriend's two year old son
to death, and k Newsom's parole board claimed that Herrera
had shown remorse and is no longer a risk to public.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Say, I think he's got a lot of explaining to do.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
But anyway, that's the news from Lake Wobegone, the United
Socialist Topia that is your home state of California.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Well, Gavin Newsom's a dang chameleon. He changes color with
whatever tree he's attached to.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
You know.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
The sad reality is he'd probably still today get elected
if he was running for reelection. If Kamala runs, I
think she'll win. That's sad. That tells me that anybody
with any common sense left and there's just not enough
people in California with enough common sense to realize that
(31:39):
this blue state and Democrat dominated state for decades has
hurt the people of their own state.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Well, where I'm at up in the mountains, Larry Elder
won the recall in our county.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
So yeah, well, I mean he would have been a
great governor in my opinion, he really would have. Anyway,
my friend, I appreciate the call. Good luck out there
watching Gavin, you know, try and be slick and smooth
and somehow reinvent himself. Is going to be fun to watch.
