sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. good night from washington. still the nation's capital. guess what's next? we will give you three guesses. beginning at 9:00 p.m. live from new york, our friend sean hannity takes the reins. ♪ >> sean: welcome to hannity. we start with a massive fox news alert. breaking just moments ago, house speaker nancy pelosi has announced that she will not hold a vote to officially authorize an impeachment inquiry against president trump. guess why? she doesn't have the votes. according to politico, the idea has been met with anxiety among some of those battleground democrats. look at your screen. look at your state. these are all the democrats in districts that donald trump wanted in 2016. politics come into play with us impeachment fantasy of democrats? those are the lawmakers who, by the way, will make or break the radical socialist democratic

parties impeachment dreams. as of tonight, they are the reason pelosi won't dare hold a vote because she's probably going to lose. ultimately, will they try to undo the will of their own voters? will they attempt to overthrow these will? overthrow president because of a hoax? will they get into the media mob's lies and conspiracy theories and outright hysteria? also breaking tonight, so far, the radical democrats impeachment dreams, they are on hold. pelosi doesn't have the votes, the unauthorized official, unofficial, unconstitutional inquiry, that will continue. with no resolution. and no end in sight. and of course, no consideration of any rights for the president or anyone else for that matter. we have a lot more coming up in the course of this hour. also tonight, we began a cloud of corruption hanging over the biden hanley shady bills this dealings. anyone with a functioning brain could not be more obvious.

hunter biden and his son profited off his international diplomacy in ukraine and china. we are talking about millions upon millions of dollars, lucrative international deals tailored to literally be made for hunter biden which, by the way, based on his own admission today, he wasn't qualified for and he got only because of his last name and his access to the vice president of the united states. well, don't take it from me. just listen to hunter biden himself. try to explain why he was hired to serve on the board of cropped ukrainian oil and gas company in 2014 having no experience with ukraine, oil, gas, or energy. by the way, none. zero. take a look. >> there's been a lot of misinformation about me come out about my dad. nobody buys that. but this idea that i was unqualified to be on the board. >> what were your qualifications to be on the board of burisma? >> i was vice-chairman of

amtrak, i was a lawyer for one of the most prestigious law firms in the world. >> sean: you don't have an extensive knowledge about natural gas or ukraine itself though? >> no but i think i had as much knowledge as anybody else who was on the board. >> in the list you gave me the reasons why you are on the board, you do not list the fact that you are the son of the vice president. what role do you think i played? >> i think it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards i just mentioned without saying i'm the son of the vice president of the united states. >> if your last name wasn't biden, do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of burisma question mike speak i don't know. i don't know. probably not. i don't think there's a lot of things in my life that would've happened if my last name wasn't biden. >> sean: he's admitting it. he made millions with no experience whatsoever, none, zero, and what role? well, i don't know anything about it and what you get it

because you had another name? no. wow. but he did serve on the board of amtrak. that's what launches lucrative career in ukraine in energy and let's see, serve on a board of amtrak? i bet he took a ride on a train went there with his father. that's a great way to be a millionaire and get on that board. that seems to be how he lands all of these high-paying jobs and what did he do for them? definitely not in his resume. he definitely couldn't pass a best background check with that. he was fired from the navy because of drug use but that none of that seems to matter to the club to media mob. they keep doing their best to sweep all of this corruption under the rug. they call any accusation of misconduct against the former vice president of disproven conspiracy theory. the problem with that is that everything we have been reporting about the biden family business as corruption is dead on accurate. he had no experience. i don't think i would've gotten any of these things except for

my dad who was the vice president. let me tell you. what have we ever told you that was wrong about this question mike nothing. did hunter biden make millions of dollars from a ukrainian oil giant and gas company, an energy company, while his father was the appointed person for ukraine and the obama administration? check. the answer is yes. was he qualified for this position at burisma holding question mike check. nobody was now. did vice president biden also brag about leveraging a building in your tax dollars to demand that a ukrainian prosecutor get fired, the same prosecutor who says, according to abc and "the washington post," that he and his son would be investigated by the prosecutor? biden is on tape bragging about leveraging our tax dollars in a shakedown to get a ukrainian prosecutor fired, in case you forgot. take a look. >> we are not going to give you the billion dollars. they said you have no authority, you're not the president.

the president should -- i said call him but i said i'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. i said you're not getting the billion and i'm leaving in six hours and the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money. well he got fired. >> sean: he got fired at! my son got rich! now widen "abc news" asked hunter about that video? it would've been a good question. in fact, there were virtually no follow-up questions at all. by the way, how would the media mob be reacting if you replaced the name joe and hunter biden we say, donald trump and john jr.? the hysteria would be off the charts. they were treated like the single biggest scandal in this country. it would lead every newscast. it would be on the front page of every newspaper. joe biden's son, while his vice president, is making all of these millions of dollars but they never talked about it. i don't believe that either. and guess what?

this is only the tip of the iceberg. remember sleepy creepy crazy uncle joe, well, his son hunter was right behind him lining his own pockets and when vice president took air force two to china, hunter was on board of course. magically. less than ten days later, hunter and his business partners landed a $1.5 billion private equity deal from the bank of china and hunter biden had zero experience with china, zero experience once again in private equity. but the government of china decided to fund biden's firm. i guess they didn't want to go to a real firm like goldman sachs or bain capital or deutsche bank or jpmorgan or citibank. well-established one of those private equity firms. it just goes to biden and "whitey" bulger's nephew but hunter wants you to think this is all a perfectly normal way to do business. apparently in the biden shady criminal family enterprise, what it looks like to me, i guess it is.

take a look. >> we saw you in those photos getting off of their force to with your daughter, with your father -- >> i travel everywhere with my dad. >> buddy did you talk about china or your deal with china? the never cannot? >> course not. >> your father did shake hands with mr. lee though in the lobby of that hotel question mike speak i don't know. i hope so little. he was my friend for almost 13 years. and my business partner. certainly whether i'm in new york or in washington, d.c., friends an end a business associate is in the hotel and my data staying there, is it inappropriate for me to have coffee with him? >> what you say to people who believe this is exactly why people hate washington? a vice president son can make money in countries where your father is doing business. >> well, i don't know what to

tell you. in retrospect, as it relates to creating any perception that is wrong -- >> ten days later, a billion dollars. wow. once again, no real effort on abc's part to follow up with a simple question like, why haven't you made money from this business deal? you still haven't gotten a penny though. well, let's make an important distinction using a little bit of the clinton playbook parsing some words, hunter biden has not received a penny yet. that's right. that's true. but look at local facts check.org. even they recognize hunter biden tends to make billions of dollars when the private equity's funds and their profits are ultimately distributed. one expert valued his steak as at least around $20 million. even biden's own attorney admits that he has acquired significant equity in the fund equal to about 10% of the company's

registered capital. remember, $20 million, no experience in private equity investing, and he gets it ten days after he goes with his dad to china. now, does that compromise his father? let's see. well, we helped your son on, we got him all this money, i expect you to help us out. let's be nice to be the vice president son in this case. of what we saw with abc was a blatant attempt to spin and deflect and lie what it is a growing real scandal that is not going away but despite the softball questions, hunter still struggled. he couldn't help himself. take a look. >> did you and your father ever discuss ukraine? >> no. as i said, the only time was after a news account -- it wasn't a discussion in any way. there is no botch to this. i said i do. >> you are paid $50,000 a month for your possession question marks take a look, what i'm up private citizen.

i don't have to sit here and open micah monee kimono as to how much money i make or didn't make. i've committed that i won't serve on any boards or work directly for any foreign entity is one my dad becomes president. >> do you think that should be a role across the board for any administration? >> no. that's the role i'm going to adhere to. >> do you regret being on the board to begin with? >> no. >> sean: what did he do to earn the $50,000 a month when he had no expertise in ukraine, oil, gas, or energy? good question. it is a public company apparently. let's get this straight. you can make millions of dollars if you are in an apparent play scheme leveraging your father and his name and his father and the media mob will have your back. or you could do it foreign democratic senators did when they formally threaten to withhold funds from the country of ukraine if the prosecutors refused to investigate their political opponent,

donald trump. that's what they are accusing trumbo. by the way, there are no calls for those senators to be bemused from that office. no investigation from the house until community and the cowardly shifty schiff pared by the way, when president trump mentions biden, then it becomes a national crisis. just like hillary has a real dossier, no collusion. democrats don't care about the dirty russian dossier with lies used to spy on a candidate transition team and a president. the president's phone call with ukraine was so he routine that the cowardly schiff actually had to fabricate his own version of the transcript, read it aloud, in an official committee hearing. for that stunned, we now have 125 republicans cosponsoring a resolution to censorship for his fraudulent dramatic reading. by the way, where are the rest of you republicans? maybe it's time for you to get on board here and maybe you need to sign it as well.

by the way, those are the republicans. you need to sign the centro bill terry do you guys right there. you need to get on board. also, every republican senator, they need to sign a document saying that they've read this transcript of the president of the united states speaking to the ukrainian president and we need the undersigned no wrongdoing and no impeachable offenses and don't waste our time. i think that should go out as well. so they will know ahead of time that they are never going to impeach the president over thiss conspiracy. and schiff's fraud, that can't go unchecked. let's be clear. if that guy is the biggest congenital pathological liar in congress. for three years he has lied about trumpet russia collusion. he kept telling we the people that he had all the evidence, clear evidence of collusion. well, he also lied about the nonwhistle-blower whistle-blower on national tv. we have not spoken directly with the whistle-blower but we would

like to. well, his office has been in contact with the fake whistle-blower even before his report was filed and now we know schiff's office was advising him to get a lawyer and make a claim to the inspector general. in other words, the whole thing was nothing but an orchestrated charade to get trump. shocking. and now schiff won't even bring the nonwhistle-blower whistle-blower, front of schiff, also front of joel lanning come in to testify. why not? because then those questions would be asked and then schiff's corruption would be exposed and it's just the latest example of the democrats and the media mob working together hand-in-hand to undo the results of a free and fair election. they have done us for three years. they've been throwing anything and everything at the wall in the hopes it will take down a duly elected president. russia collusion, ukrainian quid pro quo, trumps taxes, stormy and stormy, conspiracy theory after conspiracy theory, all because they didn't like how we,

the people, loaded. but i have some news for these radical socialist extreme democrats. we know how the story is going to end. well, the president will not be removed from office. 2020 will be a referendum on your destructive, your rage, your obsessive-compulsive psychotic behavior. more monologue in a minute with brand-new undercover footage from inside fake news cnn from project veritas. first, joining is now its reaction to our top story, fox news contributor, sara carter. sarah, i thought that was a disaster. for hunter biden today. >> it was an absolute disaster for hunter biden and what a day to have it on. during the democratic debate it was interesting to see how vice president joe biden responded to the question when he was asked by cnn about his son and he said my sons word speaks for themselves. i think he wanted to avoid it badly and they never did any follow-up questions and they should have had one of the

issues i think is really important and something that the american people can focus on and clearly understand is that 100 biden was being paid by burisma for being on the board, i had spoken to u.s. officials, as well as people connected to the ukrainian region, and they said it was just his name. so he was telling the truth about that. had he not been about income he probably would have never been on that board. he would have known nothing about energy. the reason burisma used him was to put up a shield, wall, so if there was an investigation or if anyone was investigating a corrupt dealings, they could just say hey, do you want to investigate us? we have hunter biden on our board and he is the vice president son so hunter biden, vice president biden, they have a lot more questions i need to be answered and then sad thing is that the democrats are pushing and continue to push constant narratives and disinformation to the american public about president trump and as matt j.b. said in rolling stone, and look sick we

are in a permanent state of co cool. steel and thank you sara carter. now we turn to fake news cnn where a real whistle-blower working with project veritas has uncovered a predictable level of antitrust propaganda. hatred of fox news, and is a self-proclaimed network of facts first. last night we showed you the recording from a former cnn contractor showing fake cnn president jeff zucker telling his japanese dictating to his do not prefer humpty dumpty to focus on impeachment above all else. well tonight we have brand-new video showing just how the sensitive zucker's hatred for the president really is. this is project veritas' video. by the way, we reached out to fake news cnn to get a comment but for some reason they don't want to get back to us. shocking. take a look. >> that's not can i happen.

obviously what kamala harris and others are talking about it's not can happen but it's a good segment in the show. >> sean: what's really interesting, what is coming next, is going to be even better. i have a little bird that tells me these things called sources. facts first but what's obsess about a fake news story on the president. we will have much more of that undercover footage coming up later on the show. joining us now with reaction to all of tonight's big stories, carolina congressman mike meadows, house ranking numbe number, -- mark, you know, schiff has a lot of problems here. no wonder the nonwhistle-blower whistle-blower lighted all contact. i guess he doesn't want him to come. nancy pelosi is currently doesn't have the votes for a real inquiry.

i would say they will probably have a hard time impeaching even others nothing hard to impeach over a period >> obviously nancy pelosi decided to not put a resolution on the floor which would hopefully start the process of it being fair. i can tell you, jim and i have been now and over 40 hours of deposition and what we are finding is that adam schiff only wants to have witnesses who will give the response that he hopes that they will give and even at that, it's a swing and a miss. you know, we need to have that whistle-blower and we call it a whistle-blower but it's really more of an anonymous informant. we need to have them come in so that we can say, how often did you coordinate with adam schiff? did he help you in filing this so-called whistle-blower complaint? why did you not let everyone know that you had contact with congress? those are the kind of questions the american people need to judge for themselves. >> sean: jim jordan, you've been watching the circus now go on for a couple of years.

everything they accuse the president of, they themselves are guilty of. okay. look at schiff. is he compromise? do you think hunter biden is compromised? or joe biden? if countries make all of these great deals, millions of dollars, for his son to do nothing with no experience, i got to imagine their thinking that they are probably going to get favorable treatment from their father. that's just a guess of mine. >> you are right anna mark is exactly right. nancy pelosi and adam schiff are trying to impeach the president of the united states 13 months before an election based on a nonwhistle-blower with no firsthand knowledge who -- he went in front of -- he went to adam schiff's committee first. think about this. the whistle-blower gets a call, gets info about the call, writes the memo, and then wades 18 days

before he files a complaint and who is the first person they run off to see? adam schiff staff. and they don't mark the form either. they don't check the box on the form that says we talk to people on capitol hill. so yes, mark is exactly right but why do they now want not want the whistle-blower to come in? because we have questions. when did he come to you, what took place? that's the problem with this whole thing, this nonpartisan process they are undergoing. >> sean: okay so where does this go next? nancy pelosi, all of those democrats, those that were elected in districts that donald trump won in 2016, got to imagine most of them are saying this is going to destroy you my career, this -- my district does not want to play into this madness. >> well, here's where it's going to go. the democrats are going to write a report. they are going to come out of the secret rooms where they have been, where we believe there should be cameras and open and transparent process, but they

are going to write a report and not report is going to take only a certain amount of the information, information and that they have actually tried to leak to witnesses to conclude, and they are going to put it in the judiciary and they are going to say this is the most crazy thing we've ever seen since the mueller report and it's time to impeach and yet with the american people are going to see it for what it is and jim is actually right. we have an election in 13 months. what the people decide in november of 2020. >> sean: will they actually vote though to impeach the president? >> well, we don't know sean but my guess is the reason the speaker of the house is not bringing it up for a vote to start this so-called impeachment inquiry is because those folks in the district that president tromp won, they're probably hearing from their constituents. they're probably saying what the heck is going on? we're sick of this. why don't you start dealing with the issues we care about instead of trying to impeach the

president we all elected. we all elected him. 67 million people here and we elected him and in 13 months they're going to be an election so why are you doing this? i think that's the reason the speaker is holding back. >> sean, jim is exactly right. i was with governor matt brennan last night in louisville, kentucky, and what we are hearing is not just in north carolina but kentucky and all over it. people are outraged that somehow their voices going to be taken away by a few democrats in a secret room. it's just not american and it's not -- >> sean: what about transparency? weren't they the same american party wanted to pull the mueller report and release it a week before we saw it? >> they wouldn't let mack a zen yesterday, member of the united states congress, memory of the judiciary committee, and tonight they wouldn't even let members of the intel community to read it. >> sean: unbelievable. pretty corrupt.

guys, thank you. when we come back on the veritas drops another video exposing fake news cnn, their anti-trump eyes, we have more news from that cake. later, lawrence joe's outside ohio tonight asking people outside the democratic debate what they think of hunter biden's shady business dealings. pursuing life-changing cures in a country that fosters innovation here, they find breakthroughs... like a way to fight cancer by arming a patient's own t-cells... because it's not just about the next breakthrough... it's all the ones after that.

>> sean: former vice president create the sleepy crazy uncle joe continuing to fade in the polls amid serious allegations, real allegations, of corruption. get this. even inside fake news cnn, they are admitting behind the scenes that biden doesn't seem to have a fastball and doesn't even have an underhanded pitch. as a new video from project veritas. take a look. >> we don't.

so -- even when he talks about the economy -- they probably think it's boring. biden rallies are like -- people would change the channel. >> biden's rallies are actually jay carries so -- >> biden's rallies are like it's great to be in new hampshire. joe, you're in like north dakota. not new hampshire. >> sean: even they are making fun of sleepy creepy crazy uncle joe. it was aware moment of clarity as the network has exposed and has been nothing more than a partisan smear machine and a propaganda arm of the democratic party. this isn't news. this is propaganda. this is democratic leftists extreme radical state tv. fake news cnn. just listen to one staff are pretty much admitting everything we have been telling you about hunter biden. another moment of clarity. >> will tell this, joe biden --

it looks bad, it smells bad, it's illegal. you're benefiting from your father's name. everybody knows that. [indistinct speaking] >> sean: now the president, he is floating the possibility tonight of filing a lawsuit against fake news cnn. it was a reaction, fox news contributor, mike huckabee, and kayleigh mcenany. i guess nobody probably had to deal with the madness of state run socialist tv then your daughter, governor. >> well, she certainly had to deal with it. she had little jimmy acosta sitting out in front of her

every day. people used to ask me, was a nervous one i watched her going to the press briefing room and i said i got nervous but not for her. i'm getting nervous for guys like acosta. >> sean: by the way, his books sold like 14,000 books when live-in sold 400,000. in the same time period. >> well, there's a reason for that. there's only so many fires you can start with the gym acosta book and people are actually reading mark live-in's book. but let's be really clear. what's happening on the debate stage tonight is a great reminder, everybody's been talking about the 12 democratic candidates on the stage. that is not true. there are 13 democratic candidates on that stage because anderson cooper is on that stage as well and he might as well be one of the democratic candidates as well. >> sean: are actually three moderates. i tried kaylee tried kayleigh mcenany to watch it and i'm like wow, these are the dullest human beings on the planet. i even wonder how they got

elected to the office. this is not an academic group here. >> it's a rather pathetic field. it's amazing. and of course cnn didn't began the debate by asking about impeachment and you have the democrats give four different reasons why the president the impeach. they can even give their story right but tonight's debate is like a normal night on cnn. 13 democratic points of view and none for president trump. they use to in 2016 -- >> sean: yeah, you and jeff lauren against 25 of those guys. >> that's exactly right and cnn's bias is evident. it's evident tonight and it was evident when i was there when they told me of the democratic national committee make sure to give hillary her moment. my question for cnn, what have you ever given donald trump's moment? never. you make up lies about him and his family and it's despicable. >> sean: you look at these tapes of their president, jeff zucker, he avidly has an extra grinder, and i'm thinking, wow.

this is no top to bottom, they are getting their marching orders and they are giving their marketing points and it is all hard socialist radical left. their ratings suck. they are god awful. they are negligible. and yet, this guy still has a job and i hear that he is also e being considered for this top stott app time warner and i'm thinking does this hurt him? >> why would you advance someone to a job who has failed and the one that he currently has? he's taken the network from a credible news source, and cnn, quite frankly, for a long time, was a credible news source. i remember in the 80s and even in the 90s that you could count on cnn for breaking news. now you can only count on them for breaking window. that's why i called on the cnn, the bottom feeding catfish news network because they are feeding

at the bottom and it's an embarrassment and when people say, where you guys get to talk about fake news and how journalism is dead? i say flip over to cnn here and watch 30 minutes and tell me that you were watching journalism because you're not. >> sean: last word, kaylee. >> it's not journalism. you bring up well-documented songs like the hunter biden controversy, it's ridiculous, but i can tell you, there are some supporters of the president at cnn, they are the make up artist, they had a camera crew, they are the people who watch from the sidelines and support this president. >> sean: only come back, lawrence jones is out in ohio tonight asking this radical socialist debate what they think of hunter biden's shady overseas dealings and business with no experience. we will play that tape next. ♪ -excuse me. uh... do you mind...being a mo-tour? -what could be better than being a mo-tour?

be on tonight's radical 2020 democrats are battling it out in the great state of ohio. we sent lawrence jones to the buckeye state to find out what locals think of the scandal playing democratic front runner joe and his son hunter who had a disastrous appearance this morning. take a look. >> biden is the front runner. how do you feel about the hunter biden scandal that's going on right now? >> that is so significant in that they are all talking about donald and ukraine. they really should be looking, and they are, at hunter. >> the whole idea about ukraine and hunter and all of that, that is simply politics. that's people digging up stuff about everybody else. >> i certainly have questions about all this happening with regards to biden end of the

ukraine and all of that. >> doesn't bother me. i don't think it's unique in our country whatsoever. i don't think it's unique in our current colloquial environment. >> are you concerned about the hunter biden -- >> no. i think hunter biden said his story, told his story. >> it's like a pay to play type of thing. he sold his name. because you don't think he would've gotten that job if he didn't have the last name biden? >> come on now. >> biden says he doesn't know about it. >> probably not. >> biden said he didn't know about it. >> yeah right. he said he didn't talk to his son about it also. who believes that? >> sean: nobody. apparently democratic voters are not happy with their presidential choices either. according to reports, former new york city mayor michael bloomberg is now reconsidering a run for president and in a new poll out of new hampshire, former first lady michelle obama entered the race, she would be the front runner with biden and

warren trailing behind her. it new productive models by moody's analytics, trout looks likely to get the electoral college votes needed to win reelection in 2020. yes, congressman al green is right. we better impeachment because they are not going to beat him. during his now it's fox news special hannity 2020 on the road correspondent and investigative reporter, lawrence jones. and michael bass, law president, former white house chief of staff runs previous. they kind of see the reality about the biden's i missing th that. >> yes, a lot of independence and former democrats did end up going for tron. the interesting thing i noticed there is the people, if they were in the biden cam, they were very defensive's of him. it but if they were already going for other democratic candidates, they were very interested in what was happening with the hunter biden thing and

if there was going to be an investigation of it. it's the one thing that is so concerning though is although the supporters of the other candidates see it as an issue, none of the candidates on the debate stage right now are willing to go after joe biden. all of us know that it's shady, even the other candidates supported, but none of them want to call him on it. >> sean: we are looking at a calendar, and if anyone else wants to jump into the radical polls, reince priebus come of that deadline is coming up very shortly. >> good point sean. the deadlines -- for every candidate has to file paperwork, signatures, and every single primary state and every state is different so starting on november 8th, alabama starts and so these democrats that are talking about the rumors about bloomberg and michelle obama which i doubt, all of them have to start filing all of these documents in november. this is just one calendar. you can see all of the dates

filled in, starting in december. every single day leading up to christmas is a day practically that these deadlines come up about it so all these rumors about bloomberg, michelle obama, i think, obviously, it's not going to happen because there's so much to do. there's so much work that goes into this and as such upheaval that i highly, highly doubt this. >> sean: how do you analyze what the democrats are doing. breaking news, pelosi doesn't have the votes to have an official impeachment inquiry and you have to believe that those nearly 40 democrats that are in districts donald trump won, they can't be too happy with this ridiculous no reason impeachment just because we want to do it, we don't like it. >> i think the president has done a good job as of late and what i think he should do more of which is played to the victim a little bit more. talk about the big picture.

talk about the fact that nothing is going to get done because of this partisan job that the democrats are doing. you know, the other thing is, these democrats have played it all wrong. they are going for a conviction without any evidence and i think the republicans should remind the american people of that and then, look, i think the white house at the other day. if the democrats want to take a vote on impeachment, they want to give republicans a subpoena power as well, then go ahead and do it. i think that message, although you set it many times because other people have said it many times, i think it has to be repeated over and over again and let the president played the victim and talk about the big picture with what he sees for this country. doing lawrence, you are talking to the democrats there and there's this huge appetite for, after three years, the do-nothing democrats, they haven't done a thing. is there an appetite for now another impeachment pushed by them? among democrats?

>> i think we are the appetite, period. i'm driving all across the country and i've compared trump rallies. all the supporters of the other candidates and it doesn't even come even close to that. so i think the reason why they are asking for michelle obama or someone like bloomberg is because they don't have a lot of support right now and biden is starting to look like a failure right now with the hunter biden stuff. you know, he admitted today that he doesn't believe he would've gotten a job if he didn't have the last name biden and i think the average day person is tired of the corruption, the people that are well connected, and i think that's going to affect the next election when they come out to vote. >> sean: and i never talked about ukraine or china. not one time. i don't believe that i've heard. all right guys, thanks. good to see. when we come back, lebron james in hot water again. we will tell you more about lebron's shameful shekinah comments. dan bongino and her although battle it coming up next.

>> sean: lebron james facing a lot of heat tonight for us, and that seemed to support the communist government of china. the various latest on this developing controversy life from our new york new studios, chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher. trace coming to deceive you. >> there to see you. the nba prides itself on being progressive and lebron james, aside from being in the league's best player, is among the most outspoken when it comes to social justice issues. but then lebron said that houston rockets general manager daryl morey's tweet in support of hong kong democracy protesters was, quote, misinformed. watch created >> i just think that when you are misinformed or you're not educated about

something, and i'm just talkingt the tweet itself, you never knoe ramifications are created >> that prompted fans and lawmakers to lash out at lebron asking if he was educated on the situation and is saying he was supporting communist agenda. john wolf and called it the most disgraceful moment him his career and so today lebron doubled down. it i think people need to understand what it tweet or statement can do to others and i believe nobody stops and considered what would happen. could've waited a week to send it." needless to say, the heat on lebron is still very high. in fact, in hong kong, they are burning lebron jerseys. >> sean: thank you, trace. let's not forget lebron james supported nfl kneelers like colin kaepernick, called trump a balm for being divisive. dunning is now is the author of the exonerated, the sale to take down president trump by the

swamp. fox news contributor, dan bongino. fox news correspondent at large, geraldo rivera. you know, i really look at this and we had jason whitley on. if he is pointing out, he thinks it's all about the money. he thinks while it might be any billion-dollar enterprise in the nba, it's a $40 billion enterprise from nike and that money is the biggest influence in all of this great >> how much money is enough money though? he is fabulously wealthy. i have to say, i'm deeply disappointed he went for the short money. it just seems so hypocritical to me because he is not only of the godfather the nba, the conscience of the nda, and for him to be so self-righteous and then two, when it comes to china, he goes to the mass market potential of china, he goes soft suddenly on them and says we should lay off and if we are misinformed we

should keep our mouth shut. you know, i've adopted cleveland is my hometown. i will be forever grateful to lebron. he is not the late greatest player of all time he's the greatest player of this time hee brought a championship to our humble community and tricks 2016. for him now to be an on-again off-again kind of crusader when it comes to suiting him, i find that deeply suit disappointing. >> surely chairman mao would be very proud of what john right now. this has to rank up there as one of the more disgraceful moments in the history of the nba. there is no question lebron house basketball skills that are unparalleled anywhere. he's the best player on the planet right now. possibly the best player of all time. which you claim that this houston rockets general manager is misinformed wanted to lebron himself that's is informed, think about this. think about this parallel. the people of hong kong fighting for their freedom were guaranteed a one country two

systems. they were guaranteed basically that contract was broken. i can guarantee you if lebron james, if they took $100,000, which is peanuts to lebron come out of one of his contracts, lebron james would be pretty peeled right now. so lebron james taking a shot at the rock's general manager, who dared to take a small standard in tweed, while he thousand down before the chinese, that's a disgrace and a low moment in the history of the league that i once admired a long time ago back with the patrick ewing next but this is a disgrace. >> the worst thing about it is, it's emblematic of the situation we face with our corporations. china is such a rich market. the potential for vast, billions and billions in profits, and so real, that people suspend their morality, grasping and grasping for the chinese money. to see lebron do it too, a

person who is so gifted but who has been so richly rewarded, is something that every kid has to say i look up to number 23. he's always been the guy that now, oh, my goodness, look what he did. >> yeah, sean, i'll tell you, they need to do something about this, the nba, and take a stand, because the backlash to this is going to be substantial and they will see protests all season long. this is a fight for liberty. it's not always about the block. the people in hong kong deserve our respect, not to get stomped on by corporations and billionaire athletes. >> sean: thank you both. more "hannity" right after this. ♪ eating right? on it! staying active? on it. audrey thinks she's doing all she can to manage her type 2 diabetes and heart disease but is her treatment doing enough to lower her heart risk?
