Welcome to It Takes Energy, presented by Energy Transfer, where we talk all things oil and natural gas. Oil and gas drive our economy, ensure our country's security, and open pathways to brighter futures.
What do you know about oil and natural gas? You likely associate them with running your car or heating your home. But these two natural resources fuel so much more than that. More than 6,000 consumer products that we rely on every day are made using oil and gas. Before you even step out the door in the morning, you've already used more products made possible because of oil and gas than you realize.
From the toothpaste you brush your teeth with, the soap you washed your face with, and the sheets you slept on. Not to mention your makeup, contact lenses, clothes, and shoes. Oil and gas are vital parts of all these products and so many more. Look around and you'll see the essential role oil and gas plays in our lives. Our world needs oil and gas, and people rely on us to deliver it. To learn more, visit energytransfer.com. To your city.
Are you going to run for president again? I am 83 years of age. That's what I'm saying. Yeah.
that resides in the White House has unilaterally, in my estimation, declared war. What I've proposed is that we raise $10 billion to pay for our entire economic agenda and start to Trump-proof our city because we know he'll use federal funding as leverage over this city. 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.
All right. Thank you, Scott Shannon. And thanks to all of you for being with us. Write down our toll free telephone number if you want to be a part of this extravaganza. So much news to get to today and so little time. And it's news that you're never going to get to the from the state run legacy media mob. It really is remarkable kind of thinking about this last night as you take it all in, you
You know, to see that Donald Trump has so clearly emerged as the leader of the free world with prime ministers and presidents, you know, all hanging on his every word and and giving into his every demand, you know, getting NATO to more than double their commitment to national defense.
which is so desperately needed and many have not been willing to pay their fair share. Spain still refuses. OK, then most they're going to pay their own price. And it just it just is it's nice to see American leadership at the level that it should be. And of course, this coming on the heels of.
of what has gone on, which is unbelievable with Iran and Israel. And so far, the ceasefire is holding. I hope it continues to hold. And it is sad and pathetic, but yet predictable what the mainstream media is doing. You know, before I get to this, this whole issue of the success of this mission and this operation and the left and their attempts to
to downplay or degrade what is a great military success. And we've got all the evidence now is in because they really just want President Trump to fail no matter what. And the last thing they want to have to do is go on air and say, you know what? He really crushed it here. He did a great job. The world's a safer place. They don't want to do that. One thing that's fascinating to me and.
I have ever since this most preventable national security disaster at our borders has begun, you know, early on as as the victims started to rise of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Mayorkas, you know, complicit Democrats and a complicit media. Oh, the border is closed. Border secure. Border is closed. Border secure.
And nobody was sounding the alarm. There were a few of us about a couple of things about Joe's cognitive state, number one. Number two, about open borders. And we saw with our own eyes that they were being allowed in and that they weren't being vetted. And very early on, we began to realize that there were people who,
from countries that had significant terror ties like Iran that were coming into the country. But it's not just Iran. I mean, I've listed these countries again and again and again. And there was, again, no vetting by Harris, Biden or Mayorkas. And that becomes a clear and present danger.
And it has led to a mantra now that I have used on both radio and TV for years, that it's not a matter of if it is a matter or a question of when that we are going to be attacked on the homeland. And that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Mayorkas and also on the periphery, I would add complicit Democrats that lied to us and members of the media mob that wouldn't do their job and tell the American people the truth about these open borders.
And, you know, we went over the names of people, scrolled the names of people during the last campaign. All those Americans murdered many, many names you didn't hear about. People beyond Lake and Riley and Jocelyn Nungary and Rachel Morin. So many more murdered and so many Americans raped and so many thousands of Americans victims of violent crime.
And we now, you know, we actually have real numbers. We know that at least fifteen hundred Iranians crossed into our country during the Biden years. And of that number that we know of and we're not talking about gotaways here.
that Biden allowed some 729 to stay. We don't know what happened to the others. Now, there are all of these people in this country, known terrorists. We have a trial about to begin as it relates to the Iranian assassination attempt on President Trump's life, the plot, the plan, the scheme there. And this is long before Donald Trump ever got involved in the issue of taking out the Iranian nuclear program.
And, you know, it is pretty amazing that we have been saying this. And the way I would say it has pretty much always been the same, which is by design, on purpose, because when you want to message something, you can't say it one time.
Somebody who wants to advertise on this program, and I mentioned it once, studies will show that, no, you need to hear it multiple times. It goes back to that whole monoclonal antibodies experiment that we did because Linda was getting irritated that I kept
mentioning monoclonal antibodies, monoclonal antibodies. Ask your doctor. I didn't tell people to do anything with COVID. I said, you know, take it seriously. Consult with your doctor. Take into account your current medical condition, pre-existing conditions, comorbidities. I'm not a doctor. I can't decide for you. And I'm not going to play doctor on radio or TV and tell people what to do.
And we had other doctors on that had protocols that they showed were showing great success, including hydroxychloroquine, et cetera. Those doctors were vindicated because there's been multiple studies that proved that taken early it mitigated symptoms. And Donald Trump wasn't so crazy. But it's frustrating that all of a sudden this attack and taking out nuclear facilities is,
I'm looking, for example, at the Daily Mail. They have vowed to blow America to pieces from the inside. Now experts reveal exactly where Iranian sleeper agents are going to strike next and who's to blame. Now, why are they doing why all of a sudden are we reading these stories? College campuses could be ground zero zero for Iranian sleeper cells plotting to harm Americans, experts warn.
Well, we've been the experts warning for four years. And the only reason that this threat ever existed and it existed long before this flare up or this conflict with Israel and Iran. The big problem is, is that we let these people into our country and the fact that they're even here. What have I been saying? It's not if it's when.
It's that I pray to God I'm wrong. I say the same thing every time I pray to God that I'm wrong. But it's inevitable when you allow known terrorists and murderers and rapists and other violent criminals and cartel members and gang members and drug dealers in your country. This is what the risk is. And I can't even believe, oh, all of a sudden we just noticed that.
Because what they really want to do with this, in my view, they want to set the stage that, oh, well, if Donald Trump didn't take out Iran's nuclear facilities, then this never would have happened. It is unfortunately, in my view, and I do pray to God I'm wrong, it is a certainty it's going to happen because they allowed these people in. And I've been telling you that, and everybody that listens to this show or watches my TV show knows
I've been saying it now for years, the most preventable national security disaster in our nation's history. Now, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, people are what magically beginning to know they're beginning to notice.
Now, I'm going to get to this later. Caroline Leavitt, I mean, she did an absolute beatdown on fake news CNN today. It really is amazing to me that some of these people in my industry actually survive. You know, I've gone over all the instances in which they're wrong. We end up being right.
We were right on the issue of Trump and Russia and collusion. We were right on the Hillary Clinton bought and paid for Russian disinformation dossier. We were right on the double standard when it comes to top secret classified information. When one standard is applied to Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute. And then the rate of Mar-a-Lago.
We were right about FISA abuse and the dirty dossier being used in FISA abuse. We were right about the valuation of Mar-a-Lago. It's not $18 million. It's ridiculous, always was. Judge wouldn't even allow real estate experts to say, sorry, it's well over a billion. Nice try.
It may go higher now that Mamdani is the Democratic nominee. If he wins the mayorship, oh, multiple articles. There's going to be a mass exodus. There's going to be a jailbreak out of New York. And all the companies that have half their business in Florida are going to move their entire business in Florida because he's out there saying, yeah, if they try to move to Florida, if they do any business in New York, okay, what you're going to do is chase the half of business they left there. They're all going to leave.
You won't have anybody that's going to invest in New York, you idiot. I mean, but if that's his mindset, good luck with that. California's doing the same thing, chasing people away. New Jersey's doing the same thing. Same with Illinois. Brought into Santa Saints, it's going to be a boom down in Florida because of this, if this guy Mamdani wins. He's not wrong. But, you know, so they want to take away...
Now, we have I don't like these global agencies. I don't like anything involved with the U.N., which has historically been anti-American and anti-Semitic. I don't like the W.H.O. They were propagandists for for China during COVID. I don't like the W.E.F. and other globalist organizations. I don't think we should be a part of any of them. As a matter of fact, let the U.N. move to China. As far as I'm concerned, China can have them. Russia can have them. I don't care.
We don't need part of an anti-American, anti-Semitic organization. We don't. Paris Accords, thankfully Trump pulled us out of that. The WEF, WHO, we're done. So you have now a low confidence, you know, preliminary, preliminary assessment. Low confidence meaning, oh, we looked at a satellite image. We're not sure if we got it all. Meaning Fordow and the other two nuclear sites that President Trump took out on Saturday.
And, you know, it's now we have let's see the IAEA, which is, you know, never says anything pro-American. You have Iran itself recognizing it. Israel, the Mossad and and their people on the ground that are actually doing real assessments and our own intelligence saying that these sites have been obliterated.
And Hegseth said it really good today. He said whether it's fake news, CNN, MSDNC, The New York Times, there has been fawning coverage over a preliminary assessment from the DIA, noting that the organization rated itself low confidence and they didn't even give the entire. There was just leak for the purpose of hurting the president. That's it. You still have you still have people within the intelligence community that don't like Donald Trump who leaked it.
Because it's against the law, whoever leaked it. And you have this fake news CNN reporter, Natasha Bertrand, triumphantly claiming that the president's strike were not successful, did not obliterate Iran's nuclear sites. Okay, the same reporter who confidently authored the untrue story in 2020, Hunter Biden's story is Russian disinformation.
Whoopsie daisy. The same reporter who somehow believed that actual Russian disinformation in the dirty Russian Hillary Clinton paid for dossier was totally legitimate. You know, an op ed in The Washington Post accused her of bootstrapping the dossier into an MSNBC DNC gig. He even suggested that Putin was having buyer's remorse for helping Trump win the election.
I mean, how this person has a job is CNN earned their name, fake news, CNN. They earned it. By the way, I can't believe what Israel is doing. And good for president Trump to come out.
He writes, breaking news. I was shocked to hear in the state of Israel, which has one of the greatest moments, just had one of the greatest moments in history, strongly led by Bibi Netanyahu, who is continuing its ridiculous witch hunt against their great wartime prime minister. Bibi and I just went through hell together fighting a very tough, brilliant, long-time enemy of Israel, Iran. And Bibi could not have been better, sharper, stronger in his love for the incredible Holy Land. Anybody else...
would have suffered losses, embarrassment, and chaos. Bibi Netanyahu was a warrior like perhaps no other warrior in the history of Israel, and the result was something that nobody thought was possible, a complete elimination of potentially one of the biggest, most powerful nuclear weapons anywhere in the world, and it was going to happen soon. We were fighting literally for the survival of Israel, and there's nobody in Israel's history that fought harder or more complicatedly
than Bibi Netanyahu. And despite all of this, I just learned that Bibi has been summoned to court on Monday for the continuation of his long running. He's been going through this horror show since 2020. It's unheard of, he writes.
The first time a sitting Israeli prime minister ever been on trial, politically motivated. And by the way, it's about cigars and a Bugs Bunny doll and other ridiculous, quote, gifts and unfair charges to do him great harm. He said such a witch hunt for a man who's given so much is unthinkable. He deserves much better than this. And he's right. The president.
And so does the state of Israel. Bibi Netanyahu's trial should be canceled immediately or pardon given to a great hero who's done so much for the state. Perhaps there is no one that I know of that could have worked in better harmony with the president of the United States, me than Bibi. And it was the U.S. that saved Israel. And now it's going to be the U.S. that saves Bibi Netanyahu. This travesty of justice can't be allowed. The people of Israel and this show gets carried and people listen in Israel.
You can't let this happen. This is insane. This has to stop. Exactly what they tried to do to Trump here. All right, we are loaded up today and we're going to get back into this. You know, why do people want Trump to fail? We've said this now for years that if Donald Trump cured cancer, they'd still hate him. It is actually pretty, pretty unbelievable. Remember what he said during the joint session speech? It doesn't matter what I say.
The left doesn't care. They couldn't stand for mothers that lost their children that were killed by Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, unvetted illegals that they allowed into the country. I mean, that is soulless. And that's what I've been saying now about the Democratic Party.
And when do you hear more of this Mom Donnie guy? And when do you hear about this deputy mayor in L.A. we'll get to later in the program as we continue. 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. Now you can finally get both with Don't Quit Protein Drink.

We see what's happening with Israel. They are at war for their survival, at war with Iran.

I have an announcement to make. Just so you know, I always like to over-promise and, you know, over-promise, under-promise, over-deliver. I've been looking so forward to the Punchlines and Patriots show this weekend, Saturday night, Clearwater, Florida, and Sunday scheduled for Fort Lauderdale with Jimmy Fela.
The Clearwater show is taking place Saturday night as scheduled, sold out, Ruth Eckerd Hall. Unfortunately, the Sunday show in Fort Lauderdale is going to have to be rescheduled due to last-minute unforeseen circumstances. And I just want to, I really want to offer my very deepest and sincere apologies to
to any and all of you for any inconvenience this may cause you. And I also want you to know I'm so grateful to everyone.
That was planning to attend the sold out show. I really was. Now, on the on the upside of this, we are rescheduling as quickly as possible. We will keep all of you informed in terms of new date, time, whatever information you will need. And that announcement will be very soon.
I appreciate all of your understanding. I look forward to seeing you all. And just if you're a ticket holder, we will contact you very quickly with a complete refund information and with information on the rescheduled date, time and location. But again, I am, you know, these are unforeseen circumstances and my deepest apology.
And I am looking forward to seeing everybody in Clearwater on Saturday night. And I will, when we reschedule, look forward to seeing the people in Fort Lauderdale. And thank you so much for your understanding. I want to move on to a couple of other things here. I just find the UAEA, I'm sorry, the IAEA and Iranian intelligence,
even acknowledges Israeli intelligence. It is so frustrating when you have people with agendas, and this is the sad part, and the media, they just want to, they don't even want to celebrate. Forget about Donald Trump. Donald Trump, he's the commander-in-chief, and he does deserve credit. You know, every president that had said, we have to take out Iranian nuclear sites, they never lifted a finger to do it. Not one finger.
Did they ever lift? And then this president kept saying he's been trying for peace. There's not been a president or a person, you know, a leader in the world that has stepped up and put more political capital on the line for peace in Europe and peace in the Middle East.
But you can't have peace when you have radical Islamists that threaten to wipe Israel off the map, America off the map, death to America, death to Israel, and that have been funding terror, the number one state sponsor of terror. It's simple common sense that if they ever get a nuclear weapon, they would hold the world hostage. And especially if their delivery systems are
get stronger and longer, which is, you know, something that you have to almost believe is going to happen. Well, that is a direct threat to the United States. And they've been threatening us. So President Trump gave them 60 days and pretty much begged them. Steve Witkoff made I don't know how many trips at how many meetings.
Trying to make a deal. The Iranians, I guess maybe they're just used to Obama bringing in, you know, cargo planes full of cash and other currency or Biden turning a blind eye to the sanctions that were bankrupting him and letting them get rich so they can foment terror and build out their nuclear facilities. Maybe they thought that that was Donald Trump. I don't know. But it is because you're not just attacking President Trump. And Pete Hegseth made this point today.
He said, you know, the patriots are upset. The people that risked their lives on this mission flying these B-2s, 36 hours in the air, no sleep, by the way, dangerously flying through enemy territory, multiple times they had to refuel in the air. Also, I was on a C-130 when that actually happened. It's an incredible feat that we're able to accomplish.
This success was legendary. You know, conventional wisdom that only two bunker busters would probably take out the four-dose site. No, they were not going to leave it to chance. And they done, what, a total of 14 on all the facilities, but they took them out. And, you know, it just is, but those people that just don't like Donald Trump, they don't take the victory away from our brave men and women.
You know, just, you know, you had a preliminary assessment that was low confidence. What does that mean? That means that it's just OK. We look on the satellite. We can't tell. We don't really know. You know, we believe some damage. They can't. That's not a real assessment. And that's the frustrating part. And then fake news. CNN is this reporter. We'll play it later in the program named Natasha Bertrand.
who, by the way, is told lie after lie. She had a headline, Hunter Biden Stories, Russian Disinformation, Dozens of Former Intel Officials Say. What, like the 51 former intel officials, the 51 that knew nothing about the Hunter Biden laptop that told us that it was likely Russian disinformation? The same reporter that believed that Hillary Clinton bought and paid for Russian disinformation dirty dossier?
And and a variety of other things actually even going as far as suggesting that Putin was having buyer's remorse, helping Trump win the election. I mean, when an op ed in The Washington Post accused her of bootstrapping, quote, bootstrapping the dossier into an MSDNC gig. I mean, it's it's unbelievable that that dossier has been completely and utterly debunked.
We were right. Fake news. And they burned that name. CNN was wrong. The Joint Chiefs chairman detailing how the U.S. thwarted the Iranian attack at our largest military base in the Middle East, and that is the one in Qatar.
I mean, General Kane detailing 44 service members shutting down Iran's attack. Now, there was advanced warning of it. Why? Because the Iranians pulled us and the Qataris. It was coming, just so you know. But it doesn't make it any less dangerous. He was with the press conference with Pete Hegseth today. We believe that this is the largest single patriot engagement in U.S. military history.
He said American troops manning the Patriot missile batteries had only two minutes to execute their roles as Iranian missiles flew towards the base. That's pretty scary if you're on the other side of that, because, you know, if you miss your life is over. That's how incredible our military is. That's why taking away their their glory and their success and not giving them the well-deserved praise that is absolutely deserved is is such an offense to me.
Miranda Devine in the New York Post said Trump derangement syndrome drives the deep state leakers, quote, to treasonous lengths to deny a president a victory. How deranged are the Trump deranged? Are the deep state leakers and their Democratic media mouthpieces so blinded by their hatred for the president that they will go to treasonous lengths just to deny him a victory? Or are they simply hell bent on provoking a full scale war with Iran? Not a bad point by Miranda.
And CNN's, quote, exclusive report of this, quote, leaked intelligence, which but would be a crime, by the way, by every measure. Caroline Leavitt will play later in the program was a spectacular today in the White House press briefing. This is conveniently contradicting Trump's claim that it was a success. This is the same reporter that got everything wrong about Trump and clearly hates Trump. Unbelievable.
Even Newsweek reported headline, Iran admits heavy nuclear damage as Israel backs Trump. Newsweek is not exactly conservative media, but good for them for telling the truth. The IDF chief, the Israeli reveals Israeli commandos operated deep inside Iran. As we know, we knew that they had and they were able to.
To get their commandos inside the country, we knew that they were able to get inside of Iran. I mean, these drones that they use to take out the Iranian nuclear scientists and take out Iranian generals. I mean, what an incredible operation of success. Operation Rising Lion, in their case, as part of the intelligence and nuclear experts now assess Iran.
uh the success of of their portion of all this i mean this is stuff that you know between israel and the united states they're going to be teaching in military colleges for you know the next hundred years i mean at least so um it's frustrating but everything that the media does is frustrating you know is it predictable that the democrats won't give trump credit yeah it's as predictable as the day is long they're not going to give trump credit
And we know why, because it's just overtly political. I mean, I'll give you an example. A guy that knows absolutely nothing. Chris Murphy. Nobody's been briefed in. He doesn't know a thing. And he's out there, you know, racing to the cameras as quickly as he can to tell people things that have app that are absolutely not true.
And that he's not heard to be true, but he doesn't care. I'll tell you one great thing, and I think this is going to happen, and I've been saying this now for a couple of days, that one of my hopes here is that now that the Iranian nuclear threat, and now that the military has been degraded so much, that this might lead to an expansion of the Abraham Accords,
and normalizing ties with Gulf nations, states, and other Middle Eastern countries and Israel. And anyway, Steve Witkoff said, we think we will have some pretty big announcements on countries that are coming into the Abraham Accords. I mean, that would be incredible. What a conclusion that would be. We have Iranian lawmakers chanting, death to America.
and vowing to restart their nuclear program. Trump did that yesterday and said, yeah, go ahead, because as soon as you do, I'll take it out again. So there's the answer to that. And Iran's supreme leader apparently crawled out of his hideout to declare victory over the U.S. and Israel. Okay, what bunker did he, you know, underground bunker did he come out of? I'm sure they have very comfortable living conditions down there wherever he was.
The humiliated Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei came out of hiding,
With this ludicrous claim of victory over Israel, having delivered a hand slap to America's face during his first address since the total obliteration of his nuclear weapons facilities. Kameni said he was victorious in the 12 day war, despite losing years of progress in their nuclear programs, including more than a dozen of his leading scientists. By the way, President Trump did say.
addressed the issue there had been some speculation that maybe the Iranians moved some of the enriched uranium from these facilities the president said no we have confirmed they did not and that the trucks that were seen in the days leading up to the attack were cement trucks as they were trying to fortify so I assume there's some intelligence on that that that caused him to say that and
uh, common ease also now citing the bogus fake news CNN reports. I mean, I mean, think of that's fake news. CNN actually becomes like the authors of propaganda for countries like Iran. The Bennett, the Pentagon has been working on this bunker buster bomb to take out this Iranian site, you know, for 15 years, you know, at this, this Pentagon briefing, uh,
organized to demonstrate how sophisticated these U.S. bombs that, and I'll show some of this on TV tonight, that struck Iran's nuclear facilities. U.S. military chief said the 30,000 pound GBU-57 series MOP took 15 years to design, specifically made to target Iran's Fordow nuclear facility deep inside that mountain. That's how long they've been preparing this. And only one president had the guts to use it, Donald Trump.
You know, there is an organization in the U.S. called the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, and it is the world's leading expert on deeply buried underground targets. And in 2009, a defense threat reduction agency officer was brought into into a vault and
and briefed on something going on in Iran for security purposes. Not going to share his name. He was shown the photos and some highly classified intelligence, what looked like a major construction project. And he was tasked to study the facility work with the intelligence community. They've been studying this forever. God bless the U.S. military. God bless these brave men and women. They're the best of the best. And when we come back, we're going to check in. We'll get the latest out of Congress with Congressman Andy Harris.
Harris will join us later on. What's the latest on the big, beautiful bill? 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. Now you can finally get both with Don't Quit Protein Drinks.

Welcome to It Takes Energy, presented by Energy Transfer, where we talk all things oil and natural gas. Oil and gas drive our economy, ensure our country's security, and open pathways to brighter futures. What do you know about oil and natural gas? You likely associate them with running your car or heating your home. But these two natural resources fuel so much more than that. More than 6,000 consumer products that we rely on every day are made using oil and gas.
Before you even step out the door in the morning, you've already used more products made possible because of oil and gas than you realize. From the toothpaste you brush your teeth with, the soap you washed your face with, and the sheets you slept on. Not to mention your makeup, contact lenses, clothes, and shoes. Oil and gas are vital parts of all these products and so many more.
