On Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage, you'll hear about these heroes and what their stories tell us about the nature of bravery.

Israel launched Operation Rising Lion, a targeted military operation

to roll back the Iranian threat to Israel's very survival. This operation will continue for as many days as it takes. Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. When you compare them to those nondescript thugs, it does look like a Gestapo operation. Freedom is back in style. Welcome to the revolution. Yeah, we're coming!

To your city

Sean Hannity show more behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America. Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload. All right. News roundup information overload. Our toll free. Our number is, uh, 1-800-941-Sean. If you want to be a part of the program, uh,

It is interesting. The one moderate voice in the Democratic Party is just just not accepted because the radicals have taken it over.

And that is John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, who supported the president. That parade this weekend was pretty amazing. Actually, the 250th anniversary of the army. And when you think of all the people that have have fought and bled and died for this country, do they not deserve to be honored? And do we not celebrate their great success for the cause of freedom?

Pretty amazing that people would be against it. And of course, he supports Israel's right to defend itself. But anyway, so the left does what they do best, and they have these meaningless performative art sessions. In this case, there are no King's rallies around the country where they use the most vile language. And John Fetterman wasn't even there in Philadelphia this weekend, but he got booed anyway.

Now this is not a rally for one party. We've got Democrats here today. We've got Republicans and Independents here today. We're looking to the leaders who will fight for us because even today there are folks among the Democratic Party who think we should roll over and play dead. Anyone seen John Fetterman here today?

Oh, what did John Fetterman do? Oh, we have moderates and we have everybody here, but not John Fetterman. Boo. Oh, because he doesn't go along with groupthink? Then you could thank James Comey for one of the chants that broke out, this one in Washington, D.C., 86-47. You can thank James Comey, former FBI director, Mr. Higher Honor himself for this one. 86-47.

Why don't we just say assassinate Donald Trump because that's what they're saying. Then we have chanting from these no kings protests. You know, again, performative art. Anyway, here's some of the chanting from the left in this country. Now, remember, they're getting their talking points.

From the swole wells of the world, Mr. Fang Fang and other Democrats, we played it earlier comparing Trump to Hitler. We refuse to accept a fascist America. We demand the Trump regime.

Must go now! Must go now! Hands off L.A.! No fascist USA! No fascist USA! Hands off L.A.!

No fascist USA. Trump must go now. Trump must go now. Trump must go now. Beautiful. I say no.

OK, anyway, he reported last week on a lot of this madness going on. Cam Higby, who's from Seattle, went to the Seattle protest over the weekend. No Kings protest and apparently was violently attacked and ended up in the hospital. Cam, I know you're an independent journalist. What happened?

Yeah, I had run into one of the attackers at Seattle City Hall a couple weeks ago, and they were rioting there against a Christian group. And he ID'd me. And then he was back out again the night of the No King stuff outside the Seattle Federal Building. And he ID'd me, and a group of three of them approached me, held me down, beat the crap out of me, and then held me to the ground, choked me out.

Yeah, I've got big dents in my helmet. I believe the guy who was punching me was wearing SAP gloves, which are filled with lead or steel shot. Not good. And you even had a helmet on. They cracked your helmet. What kind of helmet did you have on? Well, they dented it. It was a cheap bicycle helmet. You know, I had to blend. I didn't wear my good helmet because I would not fit in.

I would not fit in. Did you think you fit in with the helmet you had on? Oh, yeah. It was a $5 helmet from Walmart, I figure. Pretty much. So what happened? Did they actually recognize you from your online reporting? How did this all unfold?

Yeah, so I'm pretty sure that this guy already had it out for me. He knew who I was. He actually had threatened to kill me a week before, a couple weeks before, after this city hall thing. I reported it at the King County Sheriff's Department. They said they'd take him in. Never did, of course. So he said the next time he saw me at a protest, he'd have a gun with him. So what I think was happening is they were monitoring me on Twitter,

and trying to find out who I was. I was in full black block, so I'm undercover. So that's why I was wearing the $20 helmet or whatever from Walmart. So I'm undercover, and they're looking for me out of the sea of people in black block, and I think they might have had somebody go up behind me with a shoulder surf my phone and see what I was looking at and stuff like that.

Or they saw me take my mask off and I put my gas mask on. I foolishly believed that SPD was going to move in and disrupt the riot or, you know, where they were lighting fires underneath occupied vehicles and stuff like that. Of course, SPD wasn't actually doing that. So you end up getting injured and, I mean, did they get an ambulance to you or did you get yourself to the hospital? What happened?

Yeah, well, no. I called 911. SPD never moved on the riot until after I called them. And then like 30 minutes later, they sent a contingent of officers. They said that they were going to meet me at my location after I had, you know, fled six blocks away. Officer never came. So I went home.

I went to my car, drove home, and then I went to urgent care. And then last night I had some concussion symptoms flare up, dizziness, nausea, light flashes, ears ringing. So I went to the ER again, and they said it's not a brain bleed, but it's going to get better and worse and better and worse. I did land a pretty good pepper spray on the guy, though.

well it's it's not something that should happen but you didn't have any help from the police and that is very reminiscent of the summer of love and what took place out there um it's it's kind of dangerous now that you are a target and it's kind of dangerous

Look, I've lived with this my whole career for the most part, and I don't talk about it a lot publicly. I've had my fair share of threats. Trust me, it's not fun. It's not fun, especially when you have young children, which is at a point in my life when it also happened. And it is a little scary. What are your plans moving forward? Well, I've gotten a lot of self-defense tools, we'll say. So...

both for in the field and for at home. So I think I'll be fine. I'm just going to have to decide what days I'm going to wear a plate carrier, what days I'm going to be undercover, if I'm going to continue to do undercover stuff. I don't want to be intimidated by these people. That's what they want. They want to decommission me. They want me to stop recording them committing crimes. They want me off the streets. They want to send a message to every other independent journalist who's actually doing the work

that they will also get beat up. Let me ask you, do you have the information on the person that made a specific threat against your life? I do. I have two of them. Okay, so you're lucky you got two. And have you shared that with the police?

Yep, I've shared it with the police. So I doubt SPD is going to, they basically indicated to me that it's low priority because it's an assault and that the prosecutors in Seattle never do anything about crimes committed at protests. So this guy's probably going to skirt on local charges. And you have very specific evidence of a death threat against you and they consider that low priority? Yes.

Yep. So I was informed that there are nine detectives for the entire city of Seattle. SPD, the night of the assault. Well, you've got to bring in the FBI. Yeah. Dan Bongino and Kash Patel will not ignore this. And if you know exactly who's doing it, I promise you they won't ignore it.

Yeah, yeah. I don't want to give anything away yet, but there's some stuff in the works. Well, you've got to protect yourself. If you have specific threats on your life that those people, first of all, it's a crime. It's a terroristic threat. You can't make terroristic threats against innocent people.

You're allowed as a journalist to go out there and cover events, whether they like your coverage or don't like your coverage. Just like I'm allowed to give opinions whether people like it or not. And trust me, I've got an entire security team that gets on any threat. And it's happened a lot more than you might imagine in the course of my career. Yeah, exactly.

Well, hang in there. I've been there. It's not fun, but you've got to take all of those threats seriously because these people are crazy. And please stay safe out there, and we wish you a speedy recovery. Thanks, Sean. Cam Higby. I mean, that's the thanks you get. You try and cover a story in a way that the rest of the media won't.

All right, quick break. Right back. We'll hit the phones. 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program as we continue. Back to our busy telephones. 800-941-SHAWN is our number if you want to be a part of the program. Mark, Florida, my free state of Florida. What's up, Mark? How are you? Sean, it is such an honor to talk to you from Crestview, Florida today. How are you doing, sir? I'm good, sir. What's going on?

I was just wondering, you know, we have these no kings that the left is protesting. But back in when the country became free, they was the British loyalists that after the war was over, they had their hands out. OK, what about us? You know, they were they was traitors. They've always been traitor to the nation. But I'm just wondering, Sean, these crowd for hires. Is there any way that they can be held pecuniary liable?

I said that word correctly. Yes. Yes. It's a little bit more complicated than that because they think they're clever and they cleverly donate money to, quote, innocuous groups that supposedly are involved in innocuous political causes. And and that gives them plausible deniability.

However, I would imagine that there is evidence somewhere that would link them to the real purpose for their donations at some point, place and time. I think governors and mayors

If the damage is being done for these bad actors, that they need to start holding their feet to the fire. And what I'm noticing uptake this year is more people are coming online. I mean, on television and saying we have a crowd for hire, a protester for hire, and they're actually bragging on it now like they are proud of the fact.

Oh, yeah. I mean, they and some of this is being made public. And if they're offering money to to build these crowds, it is a clear and present danger to a city, to people in the city, to people that lawful people that live in the city, to law enforcement that are in the position of having to keep people safe. It's a clear and present danger to everybody involved.

Yes, sir. Okay, Sean. Thank you. Have a great day, sir. All right, my friend, you be safe, please. 800-941-SEAN. And by the way, what is the point of it all anyway? There is no point. No King's protests. Trump is a Nazi. I mean, what's the point? There is no point. They're just bitter, sore losers that lost an election, and they know that neither the media nor the Democratic Party

are going to lift a finger to condemn the violence that they're involved in. And if they think this is their path back to power, I think that they're dreaming. I think the American people are sick and tired of this, and I think it's wearing thin on people.

Anyway, 800-941-SHAWN is our number if you want to be a part of the program.

And it's going to be irreverent and politically incorrect. I'm just telling you at a time.

All right. Let's get to our busy telephone, shall we? Let us say hi to Greg. He's in the United Socialist Utopia, Gavin Newsom's California. What's up, Greg? How are you? I'm doing fine, Sean. How are you doing today? I'm good, sir. What's going on?

Well, you know, I was watching last week and listening last week to the amazing job that Israel and Mossad did over in Iraq, Iran rather, and especially where they built a hidden drone launch base inside Iran. And then they used that to go and target the military and they took out their leaders. That's amazing. And then it hit me.

We are letting the Chinese buy property right next to our military bases. The Biden administration let what? Several thousand military age Chinese men into the country up to as high as 10,000 and

And and they couldn't do the same thing that the Mossad did. At first, I thought it was just for intelligence purposes. But now you see what Israel did. And it is pretty, pretty awesome that what could we are going to pay a price for decades to come because of Biden's most. It is the most preventable national security disaster.

This is why I say they have blood on their hands and they're going to have a lot more blood on their hands. This is why I pray to God I'm wrong, but I don't think I am. It's a matter of when, not if, because they've allowed known terrorists in the country. I've been warning about what you're saying now for a long time.

The Chinese nationals have been buying up thousands and thousands of acres of ranch land, farmland, land near military installations. You think President Xi would allow me to buy up any land in China near those places? I doubt it. Of course not. As a matter of fact, I know he would not. It is a clear and present danger that Joe...

This entire thing with Iran wouldn't exist if Joe Biden just kept in place the sanctions on Iran. We wouldn't have Iranian assassination squads in the country. We wouldn't have the situation that you're mentioning with Chinese nationals. We wouldn't have known terrorists in the country, murderers, rapists.

cartel members, gang members, drug dealers. We wouldn't have any of it. This is the mess of Joe Kamala and Mayorkas and all the Democrats that sat idly by and said nothing or just flat out lied to us. This is what they've done. Keep them off. They don't want to ship them out. That's what's crazy. Just crazy. Yeah. Now that now they're fighting to keep them in. What has ICE been doing out in California and Los Angeles? They've arrested murderers.

They've arrested child molesters. They've arrested gang members, drug dealers and other another horrible crimes. Oh, let's go protect them. It's insane. All right, Greg. God bless you, man. Appreciate it. Let us say hi to we'll stay in the socialist utopia, California. Lynn, how are you? Glad you called. Hi, Sean. It's an honor to speak with you. Thank you for taking my call.

Thank you for calling. What are you doing out in California? I know it's beautiful out there. It is. I lived there five years. But what are you doing out there? It is beautiful. I've been here. You're paying a fortune for the beauty. You have the same beauty in Florida, I promise you. Right. It is. It is. You pay a big price for the sunshine and beauty, that's for sure. And yes, I am considering moving very shortly. But

But I wanted to say the protest, the Kings, no Kings protest here in San Diego. I mean, they were very successful, they said, and so forth. And I met with some

family members yesterday and they had attended on Saturday the protest and they said it was wonderful. There was so much support and there were no foreign flags waved. But they failed to mention about the signs they were carrying was absolutely, you can't even, I don't even know how they showed it on television. It is despicable. It is absolutely despicable.

And the saddest part is when you ask them what they're protesting for, they have no idea. They don't. They just know that they got their marching orders from the crazy left and that they hate Trump. This is there is there is a psychological condition. It is Trump derangement syndrome. And the very sight of Trump makes them bubble and fizz and like Alka-Seltzer and water and

And they feel like they're being productive. All they're doing, though, let them keep doing it because they're reinforcing to the American people that they have no agenda, that they're radical, and that they are just they are not your modern. This modern Democratic Party doesn't even resemble Bill Clinton.

I played last week Bill Clinton on immigration. He sounds just like Donald Trump. And that's this is how far they now have embraced the 20 percent issues on 80 20 issues. They'll champion the rights of men to play women's sports. They'll champion wide open borders. They'll even fight for the rights of illegals that are guilty of of heinous crimes to stay in the country.

And they're just out of touch with the men and women that live in this country. And we're watching a political transformation before our eyes. It's kind of cool to be a part of history.

And that is the Republican Party is now the party of hardworking men and women that believes in law and order and safety and security, that believes your kids deserve a quality education. They're not going to be beholden to the teachers unions that believes in energy dominance, a party that is going to cut your taxes, eliminate tax on tips and overtime and Social Security.

and a party that is committed to manufacturing, especially vital, essential things like pharmaceuticals and semiconductor chips and automobiles in this country. Donald Trump has $10 trillion in investments. Wait till that gets into the bloodstream of our economy, and look how many high-paying career jobs in the energy sector, manufacturing sector are going to take place. It's going to be a renaissance. So anyway, they're destroying themselves. Let them keep doing it.

You know, that's why I want to keep hearing from Jasmine Crockett and AOC and Elizabeth Warren and Grandpa Bernie and the squad. Let them keep talking. You know, Cory Booker, they can have them all. Anyway, Lynn, good call. Appreciate it. Back to our phones. Aaron in Arizona next. Sean Hannity show. What's up, Aaron? What is wrong with your governor out there? Hobbs, who vetoes this bill.

That would have prevented the communist Chinese from buying up land near military installations. That was not an exactly smart move on her part. No, that was not. Hopefully she's not going to be there long. She is a horrible governor. And I just want to say, too, I think most of America stands with Israel.

And what Netanyahu had to do, I agree with that 100%, because Iran is out of hand, and they're looking to get Israel and America. Appreciate the call. I think you've—death to—you know, when people say death to Israel, death to America—

And they say they want to wipe you off the map. And then the number one state sponsor of terror and they're fighting proxy wars and they want a nuclear weapon to hold the world hostage. Yeah, Donald Trump would be right. And Donald Trump is the founder and leader of the MAGA movement and America first movement. And he says you can't have peace if you have a nuclear armed Iran. I agree with President Trump.

He tried peace. He really did. He gave them every opportunity, and they didn't take advantage of it. Let us say hi to Tim in Alaska. Tim, how are you? Glad you called. How's the weather up there? It's been nice last week where we live on the peninsula. It's been about 75, a little cloudy today at Girdwood where I'm at working. Yeah, don't worry. You're only like two months away from freezing again.

No, we got a little bit longer. October. All right. October, you start freezing again. Call me in October. It'll be nice down here in Florida. Yeah, you better come to the peninsula. I'll catch you some fish. Anyways, thanks for taking my call. We do stand with Israel where we live. And I just want to let all our callers know that we got out of California six years ago. I got a wife and four kids. It was scary.

but now we're thriving in a state that we love to be in so basically what i'm saying is don't be afraid to leave but if you're going to stay know that that's your choice to pay those taxes and governor newsom and all them crazy people can uh do what they want with it and you can see what what they're doing with it listen i got out of new york for a whole variety of reasons not the least of which is people hated me there i mean i'd walk in a restaurant

And honestly, you can read a room and I mean, they're just utter disdain on people's faces at the sight of me. And I'm like, I don't have that problem in Florida, just the opposite. People are friendly. They did if he came up here. Well, you know, I do love the I'm obsessed with these shows like Life Below Zero and all these the rugged individualism of the people of Alaska just is fascinates me and inspires me.

I mean, people living off the grid and you don't have to live off the grid in Alaska. You can be on the grid. But but the people that, you know, withstand, you know, very harsh winters and and they thrive and those people that live off the land and those people that build their own homes and cut down their own trees and do their own trapping and hunting and fishing and prepare for these long winters. It just fascinates me.

I mean, they're brilliant, they're creative, they're innovators, they're pioneers, they're frontiersmen and women. I'm fascinated by it, but I have an interest in watching it, but not an interest in living it. Does that make sense? It's not. I mean, basically you acclimate to wherever you're at. You know, you're in Florida now. It's probably pretty humid there, but you're going to acclimate to that. It's about 90 degrees today at a high.

Where I am. You buy good. It really barely goes above 90, 93 because I have a coastal breeze in the area that I'm in. I live near. I like to live near the ocean. Yeah, no, that's good stuff. We're right on the ocean, too. But I just. That's beautiful. Do not be afraid to leave. Don't let Social Security or retirement or anything get in the way of doing the right thing for our country.

Do you ever watch the show Deadliest Catch? Well, I was a crabber and a longliner for 12 years out in the Bering Sea, so I didn't have to watch it. I lived it. Wow. Wow. I love those guys. But, you know, what's sad, if you watch the show for any length of time as I have, and I'm friends with Mike Rowe, I donated to his charity. Linda, did I ever get what he promised me? I wanted all the captains to sign.

A poster. He never sent it to me. What's up with that? I'm bandit. No. Yeah, all of that. Did you really? Yeah, I do. So I just, I look at those guys and, you know, you see swells sometimes. What are they, like 40 feet?

I mean, to me, it's like real quick. The last king crab derby in 2004, we got caught in about 120 knot winds. And I couldn't tell you how big the seas were, but they were big. And we were about 100 miles due north in the Bering Sea from Dutch Harbor. And did you puke your guts out? No, no, no.

I think I'd be puking my gut. How long does it take to acclimate until you stop puking? It all depends on the individual. Me, I think I may have puked once in 12 years, and that was about three days into it, and I never puked again. Well, you have my admiration. Tim in Alaska, thank you, buddy. And Godspeed to all those guys on the high seas. I do love crab.

Uh, Steve Delaware next Sean Hannity show. Hey Sean. Thanks for taking my call. I wanted to share with you a story we have here going on in Delaware. Um, we have a democratic governor who has called for, um, a boycott of an airline because they're cooperating with us of, uh, deporting criminal illegal aliens. I don't know if you want me to say the name of the airline or not, but, uh,

This guy is absolutely insane for what he's doing because he's trying to hurt the airlines financially and the state financially as well. Yeah, well, let me tell you, your Delaware governor backed the protests.

of this guy Avello's deportation. Are you familiar with that story? Yeah, yeah, and they had protests over at the airport over here as well. And he's also, I believe, advocating for, we call it California, to become a sanctuary state. Yeah, well, I'm going to tell you right now, we can fix all of these places, but it's going to take

The average American is going to have to realize that the Democratic Party of their parents is long dead, gone and buried. Period. End of sentence. It just is. Appreciate the call, my friend. That's going to wrap things up for today. Full, complete analysis.

Hey, Sean Hannity here. I've added another burner to my very large collection of defense products. Why? Because burner just launched their new compact launcher, the smallest, most compact launcher to date, and I'll be taking it with me everywhere I go. It's the same size as a smartphone, allowing you to conceal, carry comfortably and with confidence. It fires 400 feet per second with 41 joules per square inch of stopping power.

The size is perfect for women who want protection but can't carry a firearm. It's equipped with tear gas and kinetic ammunition. It's designed to incapacitate an attacker for 30 to 40 minutes. And burner is legal in all 50 states. There's no background check required. It can be shipped directly to your door. And burner is trusted by hundreds of police departments and government agencies worldwide.

That's byrna.com. We've all tried protein drinks on the go, but why don't they taste more like the ones we make at home or from the juice bar? They're too chalky and too sweet from sugar or artificial sweeteners. We love the health benefits, but hate the taste.
