We have all three major broadcast networks, fake news CNN,MSDNC.
All happily broadcasting well the dullest, the most boring,
there's absolutely nothing, nothing new multi hour democratic
fundraiser masquerading as a January 6th hearing.
And by the sounds of it, they're going to do hundreds and hundreds of hours of this.
Produced by a former ABC executive, 100% Hollywood production with
all the creative license that would go along with that.
But make no mistake.
Tonight's so called hearing is not in good faith, it is not an honest probe into
the security breakdown on that fateful day and we will prove that to you tonight.
Instead, it is a made for
TV smear campaign against president trump featuring sliced and diced video
that fits their predetermined political narrative from the very beginning.
Accompanied by the biggest trump haters on Capitol Hill.
>> Sean Hannity really put he leaned into that.
Yeah, he did.
And if you're asking why he's flailing so much.
Well, essentially here are the text messages that Liz Cheney unveiled during
last night's hearing.
>> But most emblematic of those days is this exchange of texts between
Sean Hannity and former president Trump's press secretary, Kayleigh McAnarney.
Sean Hannity wrote in part key now.
No more crazy people.
No more stolen election talk.
Yes, impeachment and 25th amendment are real many people will quit.
MS McAnarney responded in part, love that.
That's the playbook.
The White House staff knew that president trump was willing to entertain and
use conspiracy theories to achieve his ends.
They knew the president needed to be cut off from all of those who had
encouraged him.
They knew that President Donald Trump was too dangerous to be left alone
>> With all these text messages.
It kinda makes you wonder whether this is kind of the cause for that IOS update.
In terms of being able to delete your text messages that have been sent because so
many people are being exposed for things that they said via text messages.
Anyway, we definitely know that what Liz Cheney had shared in terms of the text
messages from Hannity were a huge shift.
From what he's trying to do.
Especially from November 29 when he text Trump's chief of staff,
Mark Meadows to essentially believe the big lie that the election was stolen.
He had tax this, I've had my team digging into the numbers.
There is no way Biden got these numbers just mathematically impossible.
That's what Hannity sent Meadows clearly Hannity has been all up in this coup
insurrectionist nonsense and that's why he was trying to get people not to watch it.
And the thing is he needs to be held accountable without a doubt what he is
still on air is beyond me.
But it is very much a Fox news thing and I kind of expected from them.
You Bret.
>> I mean it was so funny watching two different things last night on the left.
You at the basically we can talk about this later in the Fox
news response but Hannity was doing that at the exact same
time that Shane e was reading his dirty laundry.
That happened basically at the exact same time, like two minutes apart.
He knows he at the beginning maybe he thought it was mathematically
impossible for Donald trump to be the loser in this situation.
Maybe he thought that what in my contention would be that Sean Hannity just
didn't know he was so out of touch,
he didn't know how much people hated Donald trump fine.
But even someone like that, someone who earnestly,
it seems in November said trump didn't lose has listened to,
we would say common sense but also to literally everybody.
Many of them republican who have every incentive to permit Donald Trump to
get away with a lot of stuff, looked at the numbers and
say I just that's that's a train I can't get on.
And one of them was Sean Hannity saying both from a practical perspective and
a truth perspective.
People who look at Sean Hannity will say,
well maybe he was just factoring in some kind of calculus of how public
opinion would perceive this and how the democrats would go.
But that's only because they have shown that they deny everything else and there's
some things that they can't deny and he was being outed on national television.
To millions and millions of people for
being someone who said they can get rid of him over this, he was right.
They tried.
But the truth is, I've said this very crassly since the very
moment that Donald Trump was elected president in 2016.
I'll say the less crass one and saying he's a fart smell.
He you walk in at the beginning, you're like God, that stinks but
after a while you just go nose blind to it until something even stinky happens.
It takes something even stickier for you to notice it.
And the grand thing you need to take away from this is that at some
point we need to hold him accountable in a way that doesn't allow him to try and
even stinkyer fart in the future.
And while I'm saying it glibly that it's a fart,
what it really is, is eliminating democracy in America and,
no matter how much Sean Hannity tries to downplay it, is that severe a thing.
>> The thing about Sean Hannity that really makes me question a lot is
the man is like banking maybe I think 40 mil a year, 45 million a year.
Couldn't you have just sat there and
earn your money as opposed to jumping in this nonsense, be tucker Carlson did and
throw your propaganda nonsense and take your paycheck and move on.
But no Hannity had to get himself roped into this and I hope he gets a pair of
handcuffs to go with his foolishness because it's what he deserves.
>> They love it.
They love every second of it.
That's a demonstrate Hannity.
And Carlson.
Carlson was born into royalty.
His dad ran the public broadcasting service and
was an ambassador to the Seychelles.
He was fine from the get go, but
it was not to mention the Swanson broth family, he ended up growing up.
But Hannity's just kind of,
I'm now best buds with the president as opposed to being the guy whose job
was just to beat up a physical God rest his soul, but a physical straw man.
The scarecrow from Wizard of Oz.
Alan combs.
But the one thing I do want to point out before we move on is this
in that statement, Hannity says that we're talking about
Hollywood produced a big ABC producer produced this thing.
Donald Trump is a product of Hollywood cause you ask anybody
about his business acumen, they'll tell you it's nonsense.
All of trump's administration was Hollywood from top to bottom and
it was all big glitz and glam and nonsense.
And the fact that they asked the producer to produce a television event is something
that Sean Hannity is going to pretend is something you should clutch
your pearls off over and and ignore.
No way, no one's no one's buying that.
>> No and also too, I would not want the government to have done a production.
Get out of here.
That thing would have been on some old school 1996 Excel spreadsheets
grown up on a screen, probably a projector to.
