- And welcome to Hannity on this busy news night. We start tonight with the Fox News alert to the people of Iran. Well, help is truly on the way. A massive flotilla of American warships that are now speeding to the Mideast. Take a listen. - Where do things stand with Iran? The U.S. has got sizeable military answers. - They're watching Iran. You know, we have a lot of ships going that direction, just in case. We have a big flotilla going in that direction. And we'll see what happens. We have a big force going toward Iran. I'd rather not see anything happen, but we're watching them very closely. - We are monitoring. We'll keep you posted on this developing situation as news breaks tonight. But first, also tonight, bombshell news from the DOJ. Remember this? - Yesterday, I went into a church with Nkima Armstrong and I protested these white supremacists, a pastor of the church as a (beep) ice leader in the city. - As you can see, all these pretend Christians, all these comfortable white people who are living lavish, comfortable lives while children are dragged into concentration camps. - So, you know, Pam Bondi, you wanna come and arrest me? You wanna come and give me charges? So be it. - All right, the attorney general, Pam Bondi, just granted his request. William Kelly, two of the four left agitators, they have been arrested. Now, after leading this vile anti-ice protest at this Baptist church in Minnesota, storming into a Sunday church service, harassing parishioners while forcing others to flee. And here is more of that disturbing video from last weekend. - When you violate people's due process, when you pull people off the street and you start dragging them and hurting them and not abiding by the Constitution, when you start doing all of that, people get upset and angry. If you remember what the Civil Rights Movement was about, the Civil Rights Movement was about these very kinds of protests. There's nothing in the Constitution that tells you what time you can protest. You can protest at any time. That's the whole point of it, is to disrupt, to make them comfortable. And that's what they're doing. And that's what I believe. When I say everyone has to be willing to sacrifice something, you have to make people uncomfortable in these kinds of things. - Now, meanwhile, a fourth would be defended. John Lemmon, formerly of CNN, has thus far escaped any charges. Now, thanks to a left-wing judge who is refusing to sign off on those charges, will get legal analysis from Greg Jarrett. Plus, a Hannity exclusive. The former deputy FBI director. See that guy? Our friend, Dan Mangino, will join us for his very first TV interview since leaving his post at the FBI. And by the way, he's fired up and he has a message for a lot of people. You don't wanna miss that. Also, later today, House Judiciary Committee chairman, Jim Jordan, will be here hours ago on Capitol Hill. He absolutely lit up Trump hating prosecutor, Jack Smith. Take a look. - Then there was the raid on President Trump's home, you know, where they searched Barron's room in the First Lady's closet. - All right, we'll have a lot more of this and the video coming up, including damning new information about Jack Smith and his quest for lawfare, plus, well, some columns sparkle Ken or Patrick Bateman. We accurately do refer to him as the worst governor by far in the USA today. And today, after stalking President Trump, all the way to Davos, full-time Trump psycho stalker, podcaster, tweeny bird, Gavin Newsom was humiliated yet again. We've got that tape coming up. But we begin right here at home where President Trump now is celebrating a very successful trip. Tonight, it appears the US is about to get a big, is about to get bigger and more importantly, more secure and also simultaneously securing our NATO allies. Take a look. - We will have all everything we want. We're getting everything we want at no cost. - So the Golden Dome will be on Greenland? - A piece of it, yes, and it's a very important part because everything comes over Greenland. If the bad guys start shooting, it comes over Greenland. So we knock it down, which is pretty infallible. It's amazing. You know, Ronald Reagan had the idea a long time ago, but we didn't have any technology at that point. The concept was great, but there was no technology. Now we have unbelievable technology. I mean, virtually 100%. - So what are we talking about? An acquisition of Greenland? Are you going to pay for it? - We're talking about it's really being negotiated now, the details of it, but essentially it's total access. There's no end, there's no time limit. - Of course, this was only one part of President Trump's whirlwind trip. He also organized a peace chapter in Gaza. He promoted American values, negotiated looming trade deals all while putting arrogant, feckless European leaders right in their place where they belong. And back at our nation's capital, Donald Trump's DOJ was busy protecting our freedom of religion from far left agitators. We have a lot more on that coming up. But here now with a full rundown of what was a very busy day in Washington, our very own Kevin Cork. Kevin, the news comes fast and furious on a daily basis. - Yes, indeed, never a dull moment. You know what, Sean, the long arm of the law didn't have to reach out very long for very far for that matter before rounding up a group of anti-ice agitators who, as you pointed out earlier, stormed that church service in Minnesota last Sunday. I just wanna share this. The U.S. Attorney General, Pam Bondi, actually named Nakeemah Levy Armstrong, Chantel Louisa Allen and William Kelly as the suspect. She added this on X, by the way, quoting now, "Listen loud and clear, "we do not tolerate attacks on places of worship." That's pithy. Meantime, the FBI director, Cash Patel, said Armstrong's arrest was actually in connection with a violation of something called the FACE Act that actually prohibits interfering with the free exercise of religion at a place of worship. As for the Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, well, she weighed in on this as well. She posted this on X, a photo of Levy Armstrong with her arms behind her back, next to a person wearing a badge, the old-fashioned perp walk right there. Now Armstrong was part of a group of protesters that entered the city's church in St. Paul where a U.S. ICE official serves as a pastor. Now you mentioned this too, Sean. Escaping the clutches of law enforcement, at least so far, is Don Lemon, a federal magistrate judge whose wife, by the way, works for progressive AG in Minnesota, Keith Ellison, declined to sign off on charges against the former CNN anchor. However, AG Bondi is said to be looking at other options, even as the DOJ continues its hunt for other protesters who, again, violated the rights of those churchgoers. It was a despicable scene. Vile is the way you described it. I couldn't agree more. We'll see how many more arrests we see in the coming days, Sean. - All right, Kevin, great work as always. Thank you. Now tonight, for the first time in years, far-left agitators, they are now facing consequences for their own disgusting behavior, but thanks to a far-left federal judge, as it relates to Don Lemon, formerly a CNN, he does remain a free man tonight. He claims he was just doing journalism. Okay, you decide. Is this journalism, or is this advocacy? Take a look. - Don Lemon is on the front lines right now. - Thank you. - Follow Don Lemon. He ain't no CNN no more, so he right here in the front line. - In the front line, yeah. - Tell me, come get some coffee. - Hey, Don Lemon, get some coffee for y'all. - And donuts. - And donuts. And he ain't talking about police. (laughing) - And based on Don Lemon's own footage, he's seeing more like an active participant, praising the rioters, even kissing one on the cheek. How nice. Take a look. - When you violate people's due process, when you pull people off the street and you start dragging them and hurting them and not abiding by the Constitution, when you start doing all of that, people get upset and angry. And if you remember what the Civil Rights Movement was about, the Civil Rights Movement was about these very kinds of protests. There's nothing in the Constitution that tells you what time you can protest. You can protest at any time. That's the whole point of it, is to disrupt, to make them comfortable. And that's what they're doing. And that's what I believe, when I say everyone has to be willing to sacrifice something, you have to make people uncomfortable in these kinds of things. - And now somehow, the mayor of Minneapolis, Mayor Smallfry, looked at the Lemon footage and determined that Trump's DOJ, that they're the bad guys for protecting religious freedom. On X, he posted, quote, this is a gross abuse of power. The federal government is picking and choosing who to investigate, going after protesters and not the person who shot and killed one of our neighbors. Protesters, really?

almost a thousand NGOs, non-government organizations working out of Afghanistan. I had Marco Rubio in committee and I asked him, we're giving the Taliban 40 million. This is just an example, 40 million a week, two years I've been working on this. I got a freaking memo from the Dadgum State Department and they're no friends of mine, they're no friends of this country. If that's the deep state, there ever was one. They've told us that we've given them close to five billion dollars and we're still doing it because it goes to the NGOs. The Democrats fought that amendment that we added NGOs into the bill. Why? Because there's a thousand NGOs and you know good and well that that money's coming right back to Washington. That's what Elon told us. Paper trail runs right back. Now can I find it? No, I don't have access to those kind of computers, but that's why they're squealing. They're squealing about it. So squealing about USAID cuts. You're saying that our suspicions are confirmed that the money that's spent at USAID goes right back to the Democrat campaign coffers. Almost a hundred percent. Almost a hundred percent. There's still some Republicans I think if they are, you know, that's why they, leadership, they said somebody say they sent my buddy and he says beside him, man, some of the chairman, they're kind of upset what you said and you know go through all this stuff and I said, but you know it's the truth, right? He goes, well yeah, we know it's the truth, but you just can't keep saying it and I keep saying it. So I always tell people I'm not suicidal. You made a lot of news on our show saying that you believe that there could have been some real payola with some of these bites. 8,000 pardons. I said 2,000 and it's come out. Somebody said something like 8,000. 8,000 freaking pardons. You think Joe couldn't remember what he'd had for breakfast. He couldn't remember where the dadgum bathroom was and he reviewed 8,000 files on pardons. Give me a freaking break. This is so shady and it just, it's just Washington, D.C. It happens every day. That's the thing. It happens all the time, but with Trump in there, we're focusing on some of this stuff and every department, every department is suspect and I, you know, you just can't get past it.

Trace, my theory is that he saw Mondami's speech and said, you know what, I want to respond to that. Yeah. I want to respond to the rise of godless communism. He called it the inhuman vision that they have for our world as opposed to the American vision, which is about the flourishing of all humanity. I think that he did obviously dive into politics, but I think it was necessary. The country is at risk.

You know who complains the loudest, and with the most amount of fake, righteous indignation? The fraudsters. It's a tell. It's the NGOs that are crazy, like the $2 billion to Stacey Abrams' NGO that basically didn't exist and suddenly gets $2 billion awarded from the federal government. She says, "Why?" And there are many such cases like that.
