This is an iHeart Podcast. Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload. Our news roundup information overload hour, toll free. Our number is 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program. So we have these terrible incidents of virulent anti-Semitism. It shouldn't surprise people. I've been warning now all throughout the 2024 campaign, all throughout, you

that when you have 15, 20 million, whatever the number happens to be, unvetted Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, illegal immigrants, it should not be a surprise to anybody when incidents like the ones that happened, like the one that happened over the weekend in Boulder, Colorado, happened. In less than two months, we've had people claiming to be motivated by this Free Palestine movement,

I mean, the left has been defending the indefensible, the Khalil Mahmouds of the world and those that had taken over college campuses and buildings and, you know, those giving these anti-Semitic speeches and these groups. And, of course, all this does is.

is feed into what has become an environment of virulent anti-Semitism. I keep mentioning it's happening in the halls of Congress. It's happening on college campuses. It's happening worldwide. You know, we watched the home of Governor Shapiro of Pennsylvania. They tried to burn down his home. We've seen, you know, a couple...

executed leaving a Jewish museum in D.C. We talked about that issue. We look at Molotov cocktails, you know, thrown at an elderly Jewish group advocating for free hostages in Colorado. And what have I been saying?

Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorkas is open. Borders have allowed known terrorists into this country, but we don't know where they are. They have allowed murderers, rapists. They have allowed drug dealers, cartel members all into our country. And it's a it's a it's an absolute disgrace. And with every death, I keep saying that they have blood on their hands, period. End of sentence.

And it turns out in this case, yeah, another Egyptian man in the U.S. illegally. And it should outrage every person because all of this is preventable. This has become the most preventable. This was the most preventable national security threat that our country's ever taken on. And they lied to us the whole time. The border is secure. The border is closed. The border is secure. The border is closed. No, it's not. It never was. Anyway, we actually have...

The suspect in the Boulder, Colorado attack threatening bystanders on audio. Let's play it for you. We're here. We can't do nothing. We can't do nothing. We can't. Not here. Not here. Not here.

I mean, pretty scary. And look at the results. How many more of these incidents have to occur?

They have blood on their hands. They are responsible. This was all preventable. Colorado Congressman Gabe Evans is with us. He's the grandson of immigrants, former Colorado cop himself, also the freshman and the only Republican to flip a seat red in a blue state like Colorado in 2024. His biggest messaging position is how Colorado sanctuary state laws are detrimental to public safety.

And his first bill directly addresses the state's public safety, immigration and crimes rising. The attack on in Boulder is only the latest example of how far the left has gone and perpetrated, you know, all these crises. All of this was preventable as this this madman launches this targeted terror attack. Free Palestine. Anyway, Congressman Gabe Evans, welcome to the program. Thank you for being with us. Congratulations on your win.

It speaks volumes about the campaign you ran because that does not happen very often.

Well, thank you so much. Thanks for having me on. And like I told everybody, I didn't unfortunately have to convince people there's a problem. They could see the problem all around them. I could just had to tell them that as a cop, as a soldier for 22 years, as a husband, as a father, as a grandson of immigrants from Mexico, I know how to fix this problem. And it's not hard. We got to have secure borders. We got to stop the sanctuary state policies that are making places like Colorado. Right now, we're the number two most dangerous state in the country. And we've

got to call out and stop these radical pro-Hamas people that are agitating in our community and hold the left accountable for allowing this poison to thrive. Well, and that's the whole point. What bothers me more than anything else is I really, this is one of these times in my career, and I've been doing this a while, Congressman, that I actually wish I was wrong. I've known the whole time that I'm right. You can't allow...

unvetted people from hundreds of countries, including countries. And we've discussed them. Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood, Afghanistan, Al Qaeda.

You name any country with terror ties, they've all entered this country illegally, unvetted, unchecked. And and if anything, they've been they were given, you know, open arms and taxpayer money in the process. Look at California. They're struggling right now financially because of all of the.

You know, illegal immigrants that are on Medi-Cal because the sanctuary state of California gives them free medical care and free education. And that hurts the kids education. American citizens, they send their kids to a public school. Well, they don't have the they don't have the resources to to take care of people that so many kids that need English as a.

as second language. Oh, you're absolutely right. And the truly tragic part about it is we know that California, as we know the other big liberal states in the country that are doing this stuff, but my home state, Colorado, we're actually even further left than California because at least Gavin Newsom has come out and said that he doesn't want to give illegal immigrants any more taxpayer-funded health care. In Colorado, we're doubling down on

on giving he just doesn't want any more new people let's be very clear about that only because he's borrowing you know billions of dollars to pay for the illegals that are currently on medical is does one and anymore

But yet he's not he's not lifted a finger to end the state sanctuary state policies or end sanctuary city policies in this state. And again, Colorado is even worse than that because we're continuing to welcome new people on. And less than a month ago, our governor just signed into law.

a state piece of legislation that imposes a fifty thousand dollar fine on any state or local law enforcement that shares information with immigration and customs this was this was a major point of the nine eleven commission after september eleventh how could a terrorist attack of that magnitude happen in one of the big takeaways was that federal state and local law enforcement need to be able to share information because if the f_b_i_ is hunting down a terrorist

state or local law enforcement has a key piece to that puzzle. They've got to be able to share that back and forth. And we've got sanctuary states like Colorado where our governor is imposing $50,000 fines on state and local cops if they talk to ICE. Is it any wonder that we get

illegal Egyptian immigrants firebombing Jewish communities in Colorado. But they've been aiding and abetting in the law breaking the entire time. And this is what frustrates me, because we're supposed to be a nation, a constitutional republic governed by the rule of law. And for example, if I were to go down to the southern border, pick up some people and drive them into your district in Colorado, what would you call that? Aiding and abetting. And human trafficking.

And in my case, they'd arrest me. But it was institutionalized by Biden, Harris and Mayorkas. And then they lied about it and said, no, the border is closed. The border is secure. Well, we saw that with this case. This individual entered illegally through L.A. acts.

uh... and then when he is because he he actually had to be the expire on and he had a first visa which was around like doing business deals or uh... or tourism that expired and then the biden harris administration then gave him another of these uh... a work permit and then we find out he's been planning this for uh... around a year and so you have just repeated failures on in the system under the previous administration and unfortunately those failures were exacerbated again by

by sanctuary states like California, where he entered, like Colorado, where he ends up carrying out this terrorist attack because of the barriers that those states place on their state and local law enforcement being able to work with their federal counterparts to be able to identify and get violent anti-Semitic individuals like this terrorist out of our communities. But I've been asking, and Tom Holman will be on tonight, and I said, Tom,

It is it sounds like mission impossible to me. We have known terrorists, gang members, cartel members, murderers, rapists, other violent criminals. And we have anywhere from, you know, 12 to 20 million. We don't even know the number that Biden, Harris and Mayorkas led into the country. To me, it's like finding a needle in a haystack. We have known terrorists in this country as evidenced by what happened in your state this weekend. That's.

That is an act of terrorism to me. Yeah, it absolutely is. This is an act of extremism, the same sport that I fought when I was overseas in a combat zone as part of the global war on terror. And so to see this happening in our very communities, it speaks not only to the disaster that is the border, but it speaks to something that you brought up earlier, which is the fact that the left has allowed this to fester. We've seen it.

on the governor's mansion in pennsylvania we've seen jewish diplomats get assassinated in washington d_c_ uh... and and at the same time that that's happening we have a democrat party that can't even make a definitive statement and then back it up with action that these sorts of things are wrong look no further

than the state legislature in colorado last year where we had uh... some of the israeli hostage families now who had come to colorado andy democrat speaker of the state house in colorado wouldn't even let them into the chamber because she didn't think that she could keep her pro-hommas members in line

That inability to condemn this anti-Semitism, that's fueling a lot of this violence. And so we have to have secure borders and law enforcement, but we also have to unequivocally condemn this anti-Semitism. And we need the Democrat Party to get on board with this.

Quick break. Right back. We'll continue more with Colorado Congressman Gabe Evans on the other side. Then your call is coming up. Eight hundred nine four one. Sean, as we continue.

Hey everyone, Laura Ingraham here and I have a quick message for you. Let's be honest, what we went through during COVID showed us just how broken and biased our healthcare system really is.

All right, we continue now with Colorado Congressman Gabe Evans as we talk about this terrible tragedy in Boulder, this terrorist attack over the weekend. I've been telling you we have known terrorists in the country now for almost two years, and this is the result of it for more than two years.

They're the ones that are championing these idiots on college campuses like in Columbia and Harvard. And and what you know what you have this Senator Van Hollen going over to El Salvador and other congressmen staying in the Four Seasons and in El Salvador, you know, for a Brago Garcia campaign.

different case, but associated with MS-13, a designated terrorist organization. You know, how do you possibly deal with a party that wants to that just ran for president, a woman that wants to pay for free sex change operations for illegal immigrants, a running mate who wants taxpayer funded college tuition for illegal immigrants? And of course,

a vice president that wanted, and he's out there saying, we need to be meaner. We need to be tougher. He wants to have gender-affirming care for minors without parental consent. How do you have a rational discussion with people that believe this? Well, in my area, we decided we couldn't, so we just beat them. We beat them last week. What is your district, by the way? Is it plus them, plus Republican? Is it marginal? Dead even. Toss-up seat.

That means every election is going to be rough for you. That's what that means. Yeah, it does. I traded one foxhole for another. But you know what? I spent 22 years in the military and law enforcement fighting for this country, for my state. And we're not going to we're not going to let these folks have it without a fight. So every two years, I'm going to be. How do the Democrats in your district feel about this?

Do they really want to be the party of AOC, the squad, Tim Walz, Grandpa Bernie, and Jasmine Crockett? So I have got the largest Hispanic population of any of the eight congressional districts in Colorado.

and so when i go out i have conversations with the hispanic small business owners of hispanic community i've already lost count of how many times they put it in the face and said the democrats lied to us they told us they were going to do all these wonderful things that all they ever actually gave us was the higher taxes

uh... less safe communities more regulations uh... and now our boys don't even know if they're boys or girls right now uh... it's time change and so i think that is the pathway forward that is the message that we have to carry a book republicans look at our look at our one big beautiful bill we're securing the border

We're giving lower taxes. We're supporting law enforcement. We're doing everything that we possibly can to get America back to a safe, affordable place for people to live, to work, to raise families. That resonates in districts like mine that are going to be these battleground toss-up seats year after year after year.

Colorado Congressman Gabe Evans, I'm sorry what happened in your state. Our prayers are with the victims and their families. And I wish I could say this is the end of it, but it's not. And it's inevitable. And I wish I pray to God that I'm wrong, but I don't think I'm going to be proven wrong. Thank you, sir.

There is a lot of other news. Only days after President Trump warned California about letting a male compete in the girls track and field and event, the state allowed this trans athlete to take two state titles against female competitors. Anyway, the transgender student athlete.

took first place in the girls high jump and the triple jump at the state championship on Saturday at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Clovis, California. I finished in second place in the long jump. He was the only female to finish. Well, this one one girl was the only female to finish ahead of Hernandez in any competition.

that the trans athlete competed in this weekend. You know, this individual previously took first place at all three events at the preliminary round on Friday. Meanwhile, female competitors who finished behind Hernandez in this weekend's events were all bumped up one spot and received the medal they would have earned had the trans athlete not competed. If they really want trans athletes, if they want a category for trans athletes...

Fine. You got Title IX. Make it Title 29. I don't care. Call it whatever you want. And allow a trans...

category for competition do whatever you want but it is unfair and americans see it as unfair and and the left just keeps doubling down on this university of pennsylvania health care system announcing that it will no longer perform gender affirming surgeries on children you can thank donald trump for that too oh and by the way this trans athlete telling critics to get a life after dominating this weekend's girls high school track and field state championship

And by the way, the girls track and field athletes didn't stand on the podium next to the trans athlete at the Oregon State Championship. I mean, when I started in radio in 1987, these are not topics I thought I'd be discussing. Now, let's go back to the president's joint session before Congress. Remember, Democrats, they wouldn't stand for mothers that lost their children to Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, illegals. And they wouldn't stand for this 13-year-old young man who

who had been battling cancer and beat it.

It sadly came out this weekend that DJ Daniel, remember he became a Secret Service agent that night when Sean Kerr, the head of the Secret Service, deputized him. Anyway, and he visited with President Trump in the Oval Office after that evening and was sworn in by the Secret Service after, you know, inspiring Donald Trump with his fight against incurable brain cancer. He's now been diagnosed with three additional tumors. Okay.

that breaks my heart it really does so sad by the way linda i don't know if you saw this article apparently it's like the it's like a calling card to wear a maga hat now even in new york city a democratic stronghold i don't know if you saw this on foxnews.com but uh but particularly between young men and women and movers and shakers and apparently now if you are pro-trump and pro-mega

It's like good for your dating life. And I guess with polarization, these groups are emerging where young people and increasingly young conservatives, movers and shakers who live in some of America's most influential cities and towns are finding ways to network and socialize. And anyway, you've got New York young Republicans, they're gathering and you got everyone in the rooms like wearing MAGA gear. It's hilarious.

I don't know. I think that's a pretty good way. I think we should bring back Hannah Date. What do you think? I don't. I don't think we should do that. It was a lot. Why not? I think we're good. I think people should wear their MAGA hats and find each other in the...

in the regular world. - You're not answering my question. What's wrong with Hannah Date? How many people got married on Hannah Date? You would know better than me. - I think we had close to 50 couples at the end of the day. - That got married. - That got married. - Yeah, we had lots of people that did, but we have 50 that got married. - We have to put a big disclaimer up there for legal reasons and frankly just an admonition for your safety. You gotta be careful when you're meeting people.

I just think that we need to let people meet each other in real life. I think IRL is highly underrated. Wait a minute. What if you can click on a state on Hannah Date and you live in a particular state or a particular city and you want to meet people that are like-minded, that like this show and like my TV show, and you have all of that in common to start with,

The odds are starting, you probably have similar values and belief systems. I mean, we're facilitating love and I never charged a penny for that. I'm not charging any money. I mean, a lot of these dating sites charge a lot. Yeah, I just don't, you know, I'm kind of getting to a spot where I feel like people need to get off the screen. You know, it's getting a little weird. People cannot, people are having a hard time

Not looking at their phone all the time. And I would just like people to go back to old school, like seeing someone talking to someone and whether that's because you're all wearing mega gear outside or, you know, I know in our family, we all have our conservative hats, whether it's, you know, the don't tread on me's or the blue line or the red line or the mega hat. And we go out, people do say something they do.

So I agree that there's definitely a camaraderie among the same people that walk around with their hats on and are brave enough to do so, you know, or like I support Israel or whatever.

There's some like-mindedness there, which is great because all the free Palestine people can have each other. All you people that decided to stay in New York and didn't make your exit, I still think Andrew Cuomo is going to run away and be the next mayor. I believe that, and I think you kind of agree with me, but you got this radical leftist. What's his name? Mamdani? Anyway, he's now aiming to permanently eliminate the fare on city buses and

and make Sunni tuition free and tax the rich and chase every company out of New York. Nobody's going to stay based on the proposals to pay for all this insanity. He wants to make fair tuition. We don't need a radical, socialist, Muslim, free Palestine mayor in New York. That is not what we need, ever. He recognizes that winning elections hinges more than ever on convincing the electorate to ignore elections.

So it's constraints. And anyway, the extent to which he risks harming working class New Yorkers, you know, his big ticket items, he wants to freeze on rent.

Why should a landlord ever be forced? I could never understand these rent control laws. A landlord is forced then to subsidize a tenant and not get free market value for the property that they own. That's why who wants to own anything in New York for crying out loud? Anyway, provided it wages at parity with public school teachers.

And, you know, it would be guaranteed to cause a major market disruption. Freezing rents on the city's, you know, rental units would do nothing to address the city's fundamental housing problem. And they already have, you know, thousands and thousands of rents stabilized. To me, the idea that you think you want to empower your government and tell your landlord what they can and cannot charge you, and then you can never...

People never leave their apartments in New York. Oh, New York's doing such a good job on law and order.

Assaults on NYPD police rose 63 percent. I guess Alvin Bragg is figuring out his next move to go after Donald Trump. In California, Gavin Newsom is proposing a $2,000 asset eligibility test to control soaring Medi-Cal costs. But here's the here's the rub. Newsom has proposed freezing new enrollment for adults in.

that are in the country illegally because he's had to borrow billions of dollars and he's got billions in a deficit and it's the highest tax state in the entire country. It is madness. But that's what you get with the left and taxpayer-funded sex change operations and free college tuition for illegal immigrants.

All right, let's get to our busy phones. 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program. Let us say hi to Scott speaking of New York. In New York, you're on The Sean Hannity Show. Hi. Hey, I wanted to share with you a glaring example of how the media twists the narrative. If you notice that they're very much so enthusiastic about Democrat appointee judges hindering and impeding justice

Donald Trump's deportation agenda. But when Biden was in office for four years and had the border wide open, none of the mass media put pressure on the judiciary to have Biden enforce the law and deport illegal aliens who crossed the country, crossed the border illegally into the country by the tens of millions. No one in the mass media was cheering for

the Supreme Court or any lower court to compel the president, meaning Biden, to close the border and deport these invaders who've overrun our southern frontier. So again, it's a glaring example of the hypocrisy of the mass media and of the corrupt judiciary appointed by Biden and Obama. - I think you're raising some very good valid points.

And we see what the left can't get done legislatively. We see what they can't get done electorally. They go judge shopping and they seek out judicial activists and they get their decisions done. By the way, there are nine Supreme Court decisions. And I'm telling you because we're coming to the recesses.

summer recess very soon and these decisions will come in. One is the gender affirming care for minors case. This is out of Tennessee to prevent gender affirming care from being provided with minors. One is the nationwide injunctions, birthright citizenship. That is going to be a highly contested issue. I think if you're in this country illegally, you don't, you know, and you give birth to a child, that's, oh, well, that's birthright citizenship. That's not how it was designed. That was not the intent.

And even though Justice Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, seemed to think that the administration has misinterpreted the 14th Amendment, they're dealing with a case about parents that sued Montgomery School Board in Maryland after they determined the parents could not opt their children out of book recorded readings and controversial content about gender and sexuality.

That is the Mahmoud versus Taylor case, arguing that the school district had violated First Amendment rights by compelling their kids participation. We have the Obamacare preventative care panel. Kennedy.

versus brainwood management. And that is the constitutionality of the Federal Preventative Services Task Force created under Obamacare and makes binding recommendations about preventative medical services. That's going to be a big decision. Age verification for pornography websites. The Fifth Circuit upheld the laws of Texas and stating that it does not violate the First Amendment if you regulate and you have to have

you know proof of age makes sense doesn't it at least as a parent it does to me medicaid funding for planned parenthood should it be for abortion that's another case mexico's lawsuit against gun companies they're trying to blame gun companies about for the actions and misuse of firearms by by these cartel members and criminals in in mexico you have two consolidated cases

Folds versus the PLO and the US versus the PLO Supreme Court considering whether the families of terror attack victims can sue the PLO terrorist group. That's another big decision that is coming up as well. Two big decisions in that case.

and nuclear waste storage. Texas objecting to the Federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission's attempt to license private storage providers to operate an interim storage facility in the Permian Basin, which is the nation's most productive oil field. Texas sued. The Supreme Court took up the Nuclear Regulatory Commission v. Texas case. These are nine huge decisions that we'll be hearing about in the next month. That's huge.

Anyway, 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program. All right, that's going to wrap things up for today. Hannity, tonight, 9 Eastern on the Fox News Channel. Tom Homan on the illegal, in this case, out in Boulder, Colorado, acts of terrorism and, of course, murder, rape. We have cartel members, gang members. And you can thank Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Alejandro Mayorkas also.

Well, it's nearly midnight as it relates to Iran. What's going to happen with that? Ari Fleischer, Aaron Cohn, Miranda Devine on what did they know? When did they know it and who was in charge? And all the other news you will not get from the state run legacy media mob. So you DVR tonight, Hannity, nine Eastern on Fox. We'll see you tonight. Back here tomorrow.
