‘Hannity’ host warns there is no middle ground in accusations, if true America faces ‘a constitutional crisis of the highest order.’
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
Sean Hannity takes over now
welcome to Hannity
abandoned behind
enemy lines
day. Thirty, two Americans
abetted by Joe Biden,
trapped behind enemy lines, but
the Taliban is holding up to five hundred
of our fellow citizens hostage
along with thousands of other:
U Dot S visa and green card
holders,
they are all in serious danger
all hostages of the Taliban
terrorists.
Back here at home, the Biden
administration is facing another
crisis accusations of treason.
They are struggling around the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
Staff Mark Millie.
These are very serious, serious
allegations. As always on this
program. We do believe in the
presumption of innocence.
It has served us well over these
many years.
We believe in due process.
We wont rush to judgment,
but the revelations in an
upcoming book are extremely
damaging
if they are true downright
dangerous to this Great
republic
and tonight, Woodward and Costa,
that they have put out a
statement,
they are fully standing behind.
Their story can totaled
the Washington Post reports,
Chairman Millie, two secret phone
calls to a chinese official
during trumps final months in
office to assure communist China.
The United States was not
planning an temperatures. The
key line
in theirs to come. Millie went
so far as to the pledge that he
was on his own
othered, his counterpart in the
event of a u dot S attack
and other birds give them a
heads up,
Millie, allegedly telling his
chinese counterpart, and I have
known each other for five years.
If we are going to attacks im
going to call you ahead of time,
it is not going to be surprise.
Let me read that again.
If we are going to attack im
going to call you ahead of time
either that line is involved and
Woodward and Costas reporting
is nothing but a total bs lie, or
that would mean the only option
I see is that Millie would be a
traitor.
I dont see any middleground
here.
It is what we are, the other.
You know theres more in this
whole thing, and it is equally
damning
alleging that Millie sought to
undermine president Trump
powers
and Nancy Pelosi, demanding that
the nuclear football be taken
away from President Trump
General Miller. According to this
book, submitted senior officers
and informed them that he must
be involved in any decision to
launch nuclear weapons
Cuoco looking each Ndi Milley
asked the officers to affirm
that they had understood the
authors right and what is
considered an oath.
Was he colluding with Nancy
Pelosi? Second, in line after vice
President Pence, was he
colluding with Pelosi to usurp
the constitutional power and
authority of the President of
the United States, or, as he now
states, was he just performing
routine procedural training
regarding a nuclear strike?
If Millie was colluding,
Milley was colluding with Pelosi
and taking away the presidents
ability to do his job as
commander in chief, one of those
jobs would be perhaps to launch
a nuclear weapon.
He would then be guilty of the
very definition of insurrection.
That is the Democrats. Favorite
word
and again, the president is the
commander in chief.
Our constitution is clear:
it authorizes the president and
the president alone with that
power and authority over our
military.
There is no constitutional
authority granted to the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs
General Milley,
not anyone else, but the
president.
Our republic is designed to
prevent apolitical a political
coup,
so what we are describing here
is the constitutional crisis of
the highest order, an act or
instance of revolting against
civil authority or an
established government. Now an
investigation,
it must be formed, informed Immed.
There are three critical steps
that must be taken as part of
any program:
one company to talk to Alderpeople that were in that
alderpeople that were in that
room made that oath to general
Milliemilley
two. We need to see the
transcripts of the calls, and
that is the calls with Milley
and Chinas counterparts and the
calls with Nancy Pelosi.
We need to know everything that
Pelosi and Milley said and
everything that they did
were Milley and policy colluding
colluding,
were they staging a military
political coup,
anointing themselves
commander in chief
obvious dust by the way August
as Joe Bidens cognitive decline,
theres. Imagine what would
happen if this were done to him.
Imagine the average
and three Congress by the
continue to subpoena all of the
documents, every single last one
of them and every single
transcript
a partner Ltch. According to
Woodward and Costa. There are
meeting no spectacle or e mails,
but there letter
there are further documents
and maybe the most important of
all there are transcripts
surrounding millies called with
Pelosi and likely his
counterpart in China,
plus that he was monitors single
official cultic. There is
definitely immigrant out there,
Woodward and Costa say they have
all this information.
All of the serious matter is
being investigated due to the
severity of the allegation and
our belief and due process and
the perception of innocence.
This is so serious that the only
way I see to handle this is to
immediately appoint a commission
commission.
It must be nonpartisan, think
General Milley must be put on
every street of pleading and
then, of course, pending this
full investigation.
He is the highest ranking
military officials in the west,
and not one of two things is
true.
Milley is a dangerous preacher
who can put our country in
serious danger or Woodward and
Costa are liars,
and if Woodward adds Costa and
the Washington Post are lying
and slandering General Milley,
because that would be slender,
he will own the Washington Post
and potentially, probably a good
chunk of it. Not all of Amazon,
considering Jeff Bezos owns
both
after a massive defamation suit.
I dont know the answer tonight.
I know it is serious enough that
it needs immediate attention,
immediate appointment of a
commission, and we need immediate
answers and the american people
have a right to see all of those
transcripts. Sooner than later,
no problem releasing transcripts
of Donald Trump Office calls
with foreign leaders, so that
should not be a problem right,
Woodward and Costa. Are you cutie
allegations that the reporting
is greatly exaggerating, which
brings us to an important
ethical question
right here on this show,
if Woodward and Costa, if they
are so confident in their
reporting and a known traitor, is
at the helm of our military,
then how they possibly justify
holding back such critical
information of such great
national importance for months,
the Washington post? Are they
okay with the reporters
national, vital security
information to the american
people? Cant hold off as long as
possible? After you finish
your manuscript, and they got to
produced the book after the
editing
that process usually takes
months.
I have written four books
and then sell that information
in the form of a book and space
instead of alerting the american
people right up front.
Take a look
expect. Woodward and Costa are
reporters for the Washington
Post.
It takes two and a half to three
months to
a book
that means Woodward and Costa
and the Washington Post. If this
is true, except on the story for
months and months,
why would two reporters sit on a
story like this for months and
months and allowed this man? I
believe that this is true is
utterly unhinged to serve as the
head of the joint Chiefs of
staff.
You have two so called
journalists who sat on this
and the very least Kirk,
Woodward and Costa. They have a
duty to provide proof.
They should prove it right now,
because it is such importance to
the american people
and our national security,
because of now dozens of top
officials calling on Milley to
present protect includes
President Trump Office Acting
Secretary of Defense, who said
not authorized the calls to
China
and you have general catalog,
calling on Millie to step done a
lot with more than a dozen top
lawmakers.
Even Alexandra Goodman.
Remember the Democratic Party
start witness in the Ukraine
impeachment hopes
he is calling on Millie to
resign
tonight. As always, we wont
grant the same presumption of
innocence to Milley that we
would for anyone else.
It has observed this program
well over the many years. We have
done it twenty five years here at Fox thirty, three
years on radio,
but that left and the media mob
a left to throw around the red
insurrection, probably on the
other channels that they talk
about it almost every night
perplexed, but now, with one of
the highest officials accused of
plotting history on
insurrection, perhaps in
conjunction with some toast, on
some level with the speaker of
the house, to usurp a null and
void the crystal clear
constitutional role that the
President has and the role
defined the constitution for the
President as commander in chief
many on the left. They are.
