(00:28):
us right now. Sarah Carter, the Fox News contributor, great

ongoing troubles at the border and what's really happening in
other countries to try to fix this. Now, she actually

Speaker 3 (01:11):
You doing, Hey, I'm doing great, Mark, Thank you so
much for having me on the show.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
What I Tripped I have to make. What is it
like in El Salvador.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
It's incredible. Actually, I've been traveling to El Salvador for
a number of years. Under President Naibukela. The changes that
have occurred there are I can't even it would have
been imagined possible, even you know, ten years ago, I
wouldn't even imagined it possible. What he has been able
to do and turn his country around by literally targeting

(01:44):
and taking off the streets these terrorist gangs has changed
the country completely. They went from being a narco state
or a parallel prison state, I would say, to a
free country where the people in El Salvador are able
to now go out of their homes, go shopping, sit

(02:05):
down at a cafe. I can walk through San Salvador
without the fear of anything happening to me. It has
become one of the safest nations in the world. And
I think at the very beginning there was a lot
of criticism towards President Naive Bukelea. I mean, he took
it in stride he obviously knew what was best for
his own nation. And what they did was they established

(02:28):
terrorism laws marks so that they could pull these people,
these gang members off the street that have literally held
their country hostage. And once they did that, and once
they established law and order, it just turned the country
completely around.

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Can we try that here?

Speaker 3 (02:46):
It might work, That's exactly what he's saying. We can
be an example for the rest of the hemisphere. I mean,
you think about it. You're safer in San Salvador now
than you are walking.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Through some parts of Chicago.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Or Philly or La or even here in Houston Dallas,
I mean, where the gangs run rapid and where police,
you know, especially under the Biden administration and under these
district attorneys that do not punish criminals, have allowed the
criminals to run free and made everybody victims around them

(03:18):
in these communities. So, yes, there is a lot we
can learn from President night Bukela, that's for sure.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
But I'm going to hear our interview this Sunday at
Sarah Carter DC on Twitter. Go to Sarah Carter Come
actually have a clip of it. Can we let's just
take a listening to a bit of the interview.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
Does it require cooperation.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
With all the neighbors in the Western hemisphere in order
to be able to stop this.

Speaker 6 (03:43):
Yes, to bring them back. They commit and they were
pi off. There is organization. They have to be here
and submit. Our justice system.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Is ready to take them back.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
If they are criminals that committed.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Crimes here, wow, and take them back. What will they
do with them when they take them back.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
They're going to incarcerate them and they're going to incarcerate
them in scot prison in the facility right now, the
Salvadorian government has around eighty seven thousand people.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
In prison in Sccott in particular. That was the minister
that you saw there. He's going to be with me
on Sunday, So everybody go to at Sarah Carter DC
following there. If you're not following me yet, I have
a lot of stories I'm going to be publishing there.
This is a big one. This is an on camera
interview I did with the Minister of Justice, Gustavo via Toro,

(04:43):
and he talked about how El Salvador was able to
get these people off the streets and into this prison.
This is the same prison that he has been discussed
between President Naibukele and President Trump, they have been working
on deal and they have basically made a deal for
El Salvadoran gang members that are here in the United

(05:05):
States that have committed crimes we would say against humanity
because the crimes are so vicious. If I began to
describe some of them to you in detail, I wouldn't
want to do that on the radio because I don't
know if children are listening. These crimes are vicious, that
these gang members have committed horrific crimes, they will be
willing to take them back to El Salvador, which is

(05:27):
fantastic that President Trump was able to negotiate this deal. So,
I mean, I just want to put this into perspective
because when Bukeley actually declared the war on all of
these gangs, I was in March, I believe of twenty
twenty two. It went from eighty seven homicides a weekend,
one hundred homicides the weekend to like zero, it like dropped.

(05:49):
I mean after they picked them up.

Speaker 5 (05:50):
Off the streets.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Well, those thing people that were committing these horrific, heinous
crimes in San Salvador, right, these crimes against what they
would say against humanity and the minister described as serial killers.
These are the same people that are here in our
country right They're in our nation. These are people from Trende,

(06:11):
Aragua as well, that are coming from the prisons that
we have seen in Venezuela, the push for weaponized migration
into the United States and across our border. These groups
of men that have sadly been raised on the streets
in these criminal narco terrorist games are the same people

(06:34):
that are committing crimes in our country. And this is
the reason why President Trump and the administration have been
so adamant and looking at the whole of the Western
hemisphere and saying, you've got to take these people back.
We are no longer going to harbor these criminals. There
will be no safe haven, there will be no sanctuary cities.
And if you don't, we are going to levy against

(06:58):
your economies. We're going to love be taxes against your imports.
We are going to ensure that you are going to
pay a heavy price for this. We have to work
together to clean our streets up. And that doesn't mean
the responsibility ways solely on the United States, although certainly
the administration previous to President Trump is to blame for
what we have seen here, this erroneous you know, the

(07:22):
use of the law and this open border that has
allowed more than twenty million people into our nation overall
and has really put the lives of Americans at risk.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
And we can be sure they'll stay in that prison
if we a few years from now have another leader
down there.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yeah, that's always that's always the catchwing to look right now,
what we're what we're looking at is that President naibu
Kell has established a system that is strong, one that
the people support, one that the people are backing.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Why.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
I think because like any great leader, and I think,
you know, President Trump has made that very clear and
Bukeley has as well. In my interviews with Bukele, he's
been very adamant about this. That is number one resource
are his people. So if you take care of your nation,
and you take care of your people, and you bring
the economy up, and you give them safety and security,

(08:17):
then that's what the people are going to vote for.
That's what they're going to put into office. And as
long as we can stave off corruption, which of course
is extraordinarily difficult. We're seeing that right now, right mark
in the United States, with what we're dealing with. Doge
is uncovering all kinds of corruption even here in the US.
If we can do that and work together with our

(08:37):
partners in the Western Hemisphere, we can create a situation
that will be the envy of the world. I mean, look,
our partners, our neighbors, have the resources, have the culture,
have the background, have everything they need to build these
incredible economies, and we do too. We just have to

(08:58):
work together to ensure that it happens. And that begins
by removing these narco terrorists, criminal organizations, getting rid of
these sacarios, these killers, and ensuring that those that have
committed these crimes actually pay the price. In a place
like Scat, And that's what you'll see on Sunday at

(09:20):
Sarah Carter DC on X you'll see the inside of Saccat.
I was there. I was given a private tour. I
was able to talk to the directors. I interviewed actually
a criminal gang leader from MS thirteen. He was one
of the biggest gang leaders of MS thirteen, of these
terrorist organizations when they first started. I was able to

(09:41):
talk to him, and I had a lot of access
that was not afforded a lot of people. So I
feel very blessed that I'm able to share that with
our audience and of course with the administration and give
some kind of guidance as to what we can do
to get these horrific people off our sets in America
and saved the lives.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
But these kind of criminals, they're hopeless, right, I mean,
there's no reforming them. They're just hopeless forever, aren't they.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
Well, I think that once you cross the line into
sadistic mass murder or murder in general, yeah, you've become
hopeless because no one's going to want you back on
their streets. No one's gonna till Like when I interviewed
this gang leader, and I'll just say this without going
into detail, very general terms. I mean, babies were killed

(10:30):
and sacrificed. Some of these people believe in Satanism. They
were worshiping, you know, santisi mem website, doing all kinds
of rituals and raping, dismembering people. The type of terror
that they would implement in their communities was akin to
what we saw with the Islamic state, right, And this

(10:53):
is horrific murders, horrific torture. Uh, They've they've lost all
sense of moral guidance and boundaries, and there's for some
of them, there's really nothing left. I can't judge them.
That's between them and God. But I don't want them
on the streets. Like you wouldn't want them on the streets.
I wouldn't want them around my family. They need to

(11:14):
be in prison forever, you know. The director said something
to me at the prison that was very important and
very poignant.

Speaker 7 (11:20):
You know.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
I look around and I thought, what a waste of life.
I mean, eighty six thousand people. I think that when
I'm in the United States and I'm visiting, you know,
covering a story on gangs or prisons, and I think,
what a waste of life, you know. But the director
said something to me that was very important. He said, look,
when these gang members, when people were pleading for their

(11:41):
lives and begging not to be killed, begging not to
be raped, begging for their baby who was being taken
by these gang members to be killed or sacrificed, these
gang members they acted like God. They didn't give the
people a chance. They didn't give i'm a second chance.

(12:02):
We have to keep them in prison. They crossed the
line and they violated the law and anytime people feel
sorry for them, they got to think of the crimes
that these people committed. Now do they deserve adjust system
that puts them through the courts that proves that they
have been guilty yet absolutely innocent until proven guilty in

(12:23):
the United States? Right, But when you're a terrorist and
you operate in terrorist tactics, sometimes the most expedient thing
to do to protect the innocent people of your community
is to get those terrorists off the streets. And that
is what they did. I can tell you this though,
that the young people that weren't involved in murders, people

(12:44):
that were actually forced into recruitment, may be forced to
do some extortion or delivering things back and forth. They
are in jail, but they have a work program for
them that allows them to work down their time for
their freedom. So they are not treated the same as
the serial killers, as they quote unquote call them and

(13:04):
terrorsts that are being held in the coat that that
is a whole different ballgame right there. These guys are
really bad guys.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Mark, Well, it's powerful stuff. This sounds like quite a
special and it's this Sunday and people just go to
your Twitter handle at Sarah Carter.

nine one Sean. Mark Simone here for Sean hanned Beginning
he did today exclusive interview Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
You'll see it Tuesday night at nine o'clock on Hannity.
We'll take some calls next. Hey, it's Mark Simone here

(14:10):
for Sean Hannity. Normally I'm on our big flagship station
in New York, WO You can hear me there or
get the podcast. I do two hours ten to noon.
This shows three hours. This is a lot of work.
I'm getting tired. I'm used to two hours. But it's
great to be here. Another reason I'm here today Sean
Hannity in Washington, DC all day recording an exclusive interview

(14:36):
with President Trump and Elon Musk together. First time they've
sat down for a nice long interview, and it's long
as you'll get to see this.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
I have a thing.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
If you watch Hannity tonight at nine o'clock, you probably
see a clip or two, but the whole interview will
run Tuesday at nine o'clock on Hannity. We have a
clip right now. Can we hear a bit of this?
This was recorded just a little earlier today, Sean Hannity
with Trump and Musk.

Speaker 8 (15:02):
You have to be keenly aware that the media and
the punditry class not that you know. I think you've
proven they have no power anymore because they threw everything
they had at you and they didn't win. And that
was you know, the New York Times, Washington Post, three networks,
every late night comedy show, two cable channels.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
They just threw.

Speaker 8 (15:24):
They drew everything, lawfare, weaponization, And now I see they
want you to to start They want a divorce.

Speaker 9 (15:33):
They want you.

Speaker 8 (15:34):
To to start hating each other, and they try, Oh,
President Elon Musk, for example, you do know that they're doing.

Speaker 9 (15:40):
That to you.

Speaker 10 (15:41):
Oh, I see it all the time. They tried it,
then they stopped. That wasn't They have many different things
of hatred. Actually, Elon called me. He said, you know
they're trying to drive us apart. I said absolutely. Now
they said we are breaking as Donald Trump has seated
control of the presidency to Elon Musk. President Musk will

(16:01):
be attending a cabinet meeting.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
At eight o'clock.

Speaker 10 (16:05):
And I say, it's just so obvious. They're so bad
at it. I used to think they were good at it.
They're actually bad at it. Because if they were good
at it, I'd never be president because I think nobody
in history has ever gotten more bad publicity than me.
I could do the greatest things. I get ninety eight
percent bad publicity. I could do outside of you a
few of your very good friends. But it's like the

(16:27):
craziest thing. But you know what I have learned Eland
the people are smart. They get it.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
Yeah, they do it. They get it.

Speaker 10 (16:33):
They really see what's happening.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yes, you'll see the interview on Tuesday night. It's in
the White House. Elon Musk with the leads Uplin T
shirt under the jacket. Is this guy on a dress shirt.
I guess that's just his way. It looks good, I
mean compared to Steve Bannon. He looks like the Duca
windsor So. It's pretty good. But you'll see the interview.

(16:56):
It's gonna be fascinating to watch. Now Elon Musk courses
you know, is he's hitler, He's a dictator, he's a
threat at democracy.

Speaker 11 (17:02):
You know who does dress well?

Speaker 4 (17:04):
Who little x? Yeah?

Speaker 11 (17:06):
Well it's pretty sharpened that in that oval office. Yeah, jacket,
a little sweater.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
Yeah, and the way he stands in the top coat.
It really tell the press hush.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Yeah, that kid is going to be a big star. Now,
unfortunately for the kid, a couple more appearances, you're gonna
hear he's hitler, he's a threat at democracy.

Speaker 11 (17:23):
Listen, WHOOPI Goldberg's already making fun of him. Enjoy Behar
and all the other idiots on that show.

Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah, uh, smart kid, though I don't know what he's
good politics.

Speaker 4 (17:35):
Probably you know.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Elon Musk actually cannot run for off I can't run
for president because he wasn't born in the United States.
If he's elected, he would be the second African American president.
He's from South Africa. But the kid can run. So
one day, I guarantee you you'll see President x Musk.

Speaker 4 (17:55):
How about him and Baron? That would be a ticket. Yeah,
him and Baron Trump. You see, Baron is the Michael
corleone of this deal. In other words, everybody thought it's
gonna be Sonny, It'll be uh the other day, Michael
was the quiet one, not going to get in the
family business. But it turns out he's the brilliant one.
He's the guy that's tough and brilliant, going to rise

(18:16):
up and get revenge on everybody for his father. That's Baron.

Speaker 11 (18:19):
I don't know what he said to Joe Biden that
day of the inauguration, but I do know what Malanias
said to him, but which was be nice. Oh and
I thought, I love this family.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Said that to Joe Biden.

Speaker 11 (18:34):
Oh God, no, she said it's a Baron because he
was shredding Joe Biden, who looked like he pooped his pants.
Ever after Baron.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
Talked to him.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
Yeah, it doesn't matter what you said to Joe Biden.
Anybody says, he just goes who are you? He has
no idea who anybody is, where he is. We haven't
where's this guy been for four weeks? I know he
went to California as soon as he left, staying at
the house of I'm blanking at some billionaires. Zillionaire trillionaire
lend him his house in Santa bar But that was
for like two weeks. We haven't seen him since. Says

(19:04):
a lot about the guy. You're the ex president. Nobody
even asks where you are, Nobody even cares even MSNBCCN,
and there's no coverage of this guy at all. Anyway,
let's take some calls. Let's go to William in Texas. William,
how you doing well?

Speaker 7 (19:18):
Hey, Mark, thank you. If anybody doubts what the president
can say, you know, he said, like these captives in
the Middle East, he wants them released by tomorrow. Now
they said they'd have three, but I'm not sure what
that will mean. Exactly twenty five years ago, our missile
system could hit any target in the world within one yard.

(19:39):
And when the president talks, the world needs to listen,
which that I think they're figuring that out.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Yeah, all right, William, good call. Tomorrow is the deadline.
Trump said, noon tomorrow. All hostages released are all hell
breaks loose from what I'm hearing all hell breaks loose
means you remember ya who was in the White House
that had a long meeting where Netanyahu detailed to him
all the military things they could do that they were

(20:06):
not allowed to do by the Biden administration. Biden administration
put a lot of restrictions on them where they could go,
what weapons they could use. So he detailed all of
this For Trump, I would assume that in that meeting
he got the green light to do at all everything,
every weapon, every tactic, everything. So when he says all
hell will break loose tomorrow at noon, I think that's

(20:28):
what he means. Now here's the other thing. I hate
to even say this, but from what I'm hearing, there
are a lot fewer hostages alive than we thought. And
the reason they're they're holding back letting them out. From
what we hear from sources, a lot of them are
in really bad shape. Can't even walk, really really bad shape.

(20:52):
President Trump got really angered when he saw these hostages
looking so emaciated, and it was clear they had been starved, tortured.
But I'm hearing some of the other ones are horrifyingly bad.
I mean horrifying can't walk can't this, can't that?

Speaker 11 (21:09):
So they have that, they have that one prisoner who
they've already admitted is so ill that they can't release him.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah, and uh now apparently the ones that look so amatiated.
In the week or two leading up to release, they
started feeding him like crazy, getting him some sort of
medical help, just trying to make him look better for
the release. But remember it's tomorrow at noon. This is
going to be something to watch. Uh, let's se Let's
go to Donna in Kansas. Donna, Welcome to Sean Hannity Show.

Speaker 9 (21:39):
Thanks, Jude, finally, nice to talk to somebody.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
You're there.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
Thanks.

Speaker 9 (21:44):
I have several I have several dogs.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
Number One, I was.

Speaker 9 (21:47):
Visited by the FBI. You were what the ones from Washington, DC?
Not the ones from Kansas.

Speaker 4 (21:54):
No, wait, what were you? Would you say you were
investigating by the FBI?

Speaker 9 (21:59):
Last ye, I ordered two Catholic books, one Beholds Your
Mother and one was to Marry a five. I also
put on the Internet when I thought of the because
I'm a nurse I have met for fifty nine years,
and I put on there because I did a lot
of studying about that COVID vaccine and I told people

(22:20):
not to take it because of Pops in.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
It, and the FBI showed up. Yes, oh my good,
And what do they want to do? They just wanted
to question you. They didn't arrest you anything, did they No.

Speaker 9 (22:36):
They they pulled me out of my house because they
were afraid I give my COVID. I guess they got
them at summer.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Oh well, thank god, the Christopher Ray is gone and
Merrick Garland has gone. These are the dirtiest people. You'll
be okay now Donald Trump is in charge, and hopefully
they'll They've been firing a lot of FBI agents. Anybody
that was involved in that kind of stuff is being
thrown out of there. And Cash Bettel should be in
pretty soon track down the rest of those guys. This

(23:05):
Merrick Garland was really the dirtiest attorney general we have
ever seen. Christopher Ray horrible, but Merrick Garland green lighted
all this law fair, the fake documents case, the fake
case here in New York, which his guy came to
personally run. And hey, you know, they still haven't cleared

(23:26):
up this documents thing.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
And you got.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
To tell President Trump about this. They kept showing you
these pictures of the hundred boxes, one hundred and fifty boxes.
They've never made this clear. None of those boxes had
any classified documents in them. Remember they show you all
these boxes in a storage room, then they show you
fifty boxes in a bathroom, and then another seventy five
boxes on the stage in the ballroom. They did not

(23:52):
have classified documents. In the end, after searching everything, they
only found seventy five classic satisfied documents. If you put
that in a folder, the folders one inch thick, so
it was one inch of one box. All those pictures
were not classified documents. Somewhere, somebody's got to release that

(24:13):
to the public and make it clear these pictures were false.
These were presidential papers, no classified documents. And oh, but
you're going to say, well, wait, I saw on the
floor they spread them out and the folder said classified.
Those pictures were faked. Christopher Rays admitted that uh and
Jack Smith had to admit that in court. They just

(24:34):
took regular papers and put that cover on them. So
they got to make that clear to everybody that it
was a hoax. The boxes you saw in the pictures
turned out to have no classified documents. And let's go
to Sean, North Carolina. Sean how you doing.

Speaker 12 (24:50):
Hey, how you doing? Mark?

Speaker 4 (24:51):
Good? Talk to you.

Speaker 12 (24:53):
Well, I mean, I'm gonna say real quick, first of all, like,
if they were classified, wasn't he you know, able to
have classified?

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Well that's the other thing. Besides the fact that those
boxes didn't contain in classified documents, the ones they found
turned out to be absolutely nothing. Anybody works with classified
documents will say many of them are just nothing. They
overclassify everything. The weather report from a battlefield. Uh. And
also if the documents are a year two years old,
there's nothing in there.

Speaker 12 (25:22):
So yeah, there's exactly exactly. So Hey, great to talk
to you. So I didn't mean to skew off there.
I'm a I'm a contractor. I'm a construction worker. I
have been for thirty five years. I'm as Linda will
probably tell you, I mean by the sound of my voice,
I'm obviously not from North Carolina, but I haven't been

(25:43):
here long enough.

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Yeah I did.

Speaker 12 (25:46):
I did a job at a federal prison in my state.
I'm not gonna name that. I'm not gonna name. This
goes to Doge. Okay, which God blessed Doge and what
they're doing right now? Man, Seriously, I can't wait to
reap the benefits as a contractor.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Did they try to get you down to a good price.

Speaker 12 (26:07):
No, that was that was the whole point in my call.
As a contractor. I actually had an insider when I
when I when I bid on the job, I had
an insider who was, you know, submitting all the contractors'
bids to their higher ups that said to me, hey,

(26:28):
you're too low, You're.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
Ta spare money. Yeah, you're too low. Bid higher. So
after you bid, wait too much and they overpaid for
the job. Were you contacted by any politicians looking for
a donation?

Speaker 12 (26:41):
No, no, But I will tell you this and just
like I told Linda, I like I said, I'm not
going to name the prison that I worked in, but
while I was in there, while I was doing the job,
because again I they I wound up getting paid three
hundred and fifty dollars an hour to do a job
that I would have ordinarily bid for three hundred and

(27:04):
fifty dollars. But that being said, you got to.

Speaker 4 (27:07):
Speed this up. I can tell you, our contractor, it's
taken forever to get through this call.

Speaker 12 (27:11):
I I, oh, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
That's okay.

Speaker 12 (27:15):
I saw Bernie made off while it was in there.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
Oh there you go, old Bernie.

Speaker 12 (27:20):
Yeah, I got I got to see Bernie and it
was just like, oh my god, I know that is
I'm all.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
Right, Sean.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well we got to go. But thank you for calling.
Thank you for overbilling our government and not his fault.
This is what I'm telling you. They tell everybody to
mark it up real high. It's your money coming out.
It's our money coming out of our paychecks. It's not
their money. And they just the fraud, the waste, the bloat.
The goal was to save a trillion dollars. Hopefully at

(27:48):
some point by the time Musk is done, he'll get
it up to a trillion and a half. And if
he does that, you got probably cut federal income tax
in half. You'll pay half the tax. We'll take some
more calls in him minute. Mark Simone here for Sean Hanny.

Speaker 10 (28:28):
In the Irs Scandal and the NSA atrocities convinced you.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
You need a watch dog on Washington with insider sources.

Hey, it's Mark Simone here for Sean. Hanny, Look, how
I timed this out perfectly, so I only got like
a minute left. This is great. Uh, we don't have
time for these calls, Linda. Is there anyone that's great here?
Tom wants to say Christopher Ray was great?

Speaker 4 (30:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Right, yeah, he was great testifying. I don't know, I
don't know. I can't answer that. I don't know, I
don't know, really great. But I see Tom's calling from
New Jersey. That's where Christopher Ray is from. You know,
he was Chris Christie's lawyer. That's how he got the job.
Christy recommended him. He had been Christie's lawyer in that
bridge Gate scandal, and that's how we got stuck with him.

(30:22):
So we're out of time. Anything else, Linda, do we
need to do?

Trump in the Oval Office today And if you want
to see, check it out Tuesday on Hannity, and obviously
