He\u2019s the very conservative &#8212; we love the guy &#8212; member of the Parliament in Great Britain, and she was interviewing him about the Brexit vote and it was not an interview. &nbsp;It was an allegation. &nbsp;She was actually a prosecutor, he was a witness, and she was trying to put him in jail. &nbsp;It was the most incredible thing. &nbsp;She just kept pounding and arguing. They were talking at the same time. He never lost his cool, but I was as I was watching it. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She lost it. &nbsp;I mean, she was literally beside herself that this could possibly have happened. &nbsp;I mean, it was almost like she was personally embarrassed to be a human being since Great Britain had voted to exit the EU. &nbsp;I mean, these people, folks, it\u2019s time people got their heads on and understood exactly who we are dealing with here when we\u2019re talking about anybody on the left. &nbsp;I don\u2019t care if they\u2019re media, if they\u2019re elected officials. &nbsp;And now just common, ordinary, everyday citizens, they are gone. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Democrat Party, there\u2019s nothing moderate about it anymore. &nbsp;There\u2019s nothing mainstream about it. &nbsp;It is full-fledged, and it seems like it\u2019s happened overnight. &nbsp;There isn\u2019t a non-radical in the bunch, no matter where you go. &nbsp;And she is just relentless. &nbsp;Had I been Hannan, I\u2019d have walked out of this thing or I would have tried to shut her up some way. &nbsp;But he was polite. &nbsp;Kept smiling, trying to answer her question, you know, exactly like conservatives do, trying to be nice, trying to answer the questions, not being rude. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She gets away with being rude. She gets away with being accusatory. It was one of the most unprofessional, reprehensible displays I have ever seen in the Drive-By Media.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I knew Cookie was gonna do this. Folks, I will not be able to understand a word here.&nbsp; We\u2019ve got two sound bites of Christiane Amanpour supposedly interviewing Daniel Hannan, the conservative member of Parliament, about the Brexit vote, but this is not an interview.&nbsp; This is an interrogation. It\u2019s an allegation. It\u2019s a prosecution. But the last thing it is, is an interview.&nbsp; And I just want you to hear it since I described it earlier in the program.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MRC TV video player\" width=\"585\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrctv.org\/embed\/166556\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve got the transcript now because I have the sound bite so I know what was said, but when I watched the video of this, I couldn\u2019t understand what either of them were saying except for, you know, a word here or there, maybe a sentence here or there, but I couldn\u2019t keep up with it \u2019cause they\u2019re both talking at the same time, which is impossible for people like me with cochlear implants to understand speech when there\u2019s more than one voice going at a time, it breaks down.&nbsp; But I could still tell he never lost his composure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the premise of the story in which the interview was embedded was that he just cleaned her clock.&nbsp; I didn\u2019t see that because I couldn\u2019t understand what was being said.&nbsp; Daniel Hannan shows us how to deal with the left-wing media or something was the headline of the story.&nbsp; But here\u2019s the first of the two bites.<\/p>\n<p>AMANPOUR:&nbsp; I\u2019m hearing, you know, a very much softer, gentler version of what you proposed during the campaign.&nbsp; Temper some of this stuff.<\/p>\n<p>HANNAN:&nbsp; Like what?<\/p>\n<p>AMANPOUR:&nbsp; Like immigration, because you yourself have sort of stepped back.&nbsp; So has Boris Johnson.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>HANNAN: Hang on, what have I stepped back from?<\/p>\n<p>AMANPOUR:&nbsp; You have said &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>HANNAN: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>AMANPOUR:&nbsp; &#8212; that.
