All right, glad you were with us. Thank you Scotch. It's finally here. And I want to start out first with a thank you.

We have now this is launch day and our book has been what the 24 what a 48 I don't even know anymore at least 48 hours, right?

Maybe more.

It's the number one book

in the country all

categories on Amazon.com and I want to say thank you

because

I've said this many of the interviews I did not want to ever write another book, but I just started percolating you know in my solar plexus and it just I felt a sense of urgency building with the moment was going to be.

And and I worked on it. I worked on a title working title most of the book actually was live free or American dies we put that in Latin at the very bottom of the book.

And I'm just very, very grateful that to all of you. I think you'll find it worthwhile. I think the moment calls for it.

You know, I wish I had a and it's all up on Hannity.com Amazon.com and now in bookstores everywhere you can actually go to a bookstore in a lot of cities and it's there to

books of million Barnes and Noble all those places. Costco. I think has Walmart's they usually carry it. I don't know if they do this time.

And we have a lot of great events. I'm going to I'm going to mention to you in a minute. You know what I was thinking about this. I forgot when I made the pivot.

There's a there's a live free or die. It's got it's got an optimistic vision. And then it's got a die. So it's got a warning.

This is a warning is this this is why I wrote this book. I didn't write it to be number one in the country. I'm grateful. I'm very grateful. That's not why I did it.

I don't I write every night. I write a monologue and I really write half a monologue and I live the rest of the monologue. That's that's kind of the little secret behind Hannity on the Fox News channel because I'm a talk show host. There's nothing I'm saying in this entire program that's pre planned or written down nothing.

So I wrote this this book because I knew this moment would come. I really and the subtitle, you know, American the world on the brink America. I in the brink of what?

Greatness continued goodness. You know, think of the world without the United States of America for one second. Maybe it's not fashionable to talk about American goodness.

American greatness or what we call American exceptional is maybe it's not fashionable. But the reality is human beings are flawed. We just are. Of course, we're not a perfect country. No, but you know, the beauty and the wisdom of our framers and founders is captured for me in this.

That this constitution of hours that has created more liberty, more freedom, more wealth creation, a standard of living that we've shared with the entire world through our industry and risk and reward and invention and innovation and science and math and medicine and and every other thing conceivable is because of liberty. It's because of freedom.

And we have, for example, when I say, you know, that we have literally advanced the human condition because we, for example, we got a coronavirus vaccine, which Moderna very well is on very soon. We might have one.

The hope and promise is amazing. Actually, and there's not just Moderna, there's AstraZeneca, there's other countries, there's other companies, you know, final trials.
