Sean Hannity Reveals Alan Colmes Shielded Wife from His Illness: ‘He Always Put Others Ahead of Himself’

Seems like I just saw him on FOX a few days ago. Not to speak ill of the dead but I could never stand the guy. Can’t believe he was married to Monica’s sister. Must have been some 'spirited' Thanksgiving dinners. However, this article puts him in a different light which I never knew about.

Sean Hannity Calls Alan Colmes’ Battle with Illness ‘the Single Greatest Amount of Courage I’ve Ever Seen’

As a “heartbroken” Sean Hannity mourns the death of his longtime friend and Fox News sparring partner Alan Colmes, he also wants to celebrate the life and selfless spirit of the late political commentator.

Speaking with PEOPLE, the Fox News Channel host opened up about the loss of his colleague and close friend, who died at the age of 66 after battling a brief illness.

Though the details surrounding Colmes’ illness have not been released, Hannity says that when the radio and television host first learned of his health issues, Colmes’ first thought was to shield his wife, Jocelyn Crowley.

“ we first talked about it, you know, typical Alan style, his first statement to me was, ‘I don’t want my wife to worry or be upset,’ ” Hannity recalls. “He was thinking about her. He loved his wife, he adored her.”

“She’s a wonderful woman, and I know she’s struggling today,” he adds. “Alan always put other people ahead of himself.”

The former Hannity & Colmes co-hosts were more than just colleagues, they were great friends who were able to grow together.

“Alan was just a great guy, really awesome. We were really blessed. We got hired, neither one of us had a lot of TV experience; we had to collaborate really strongly to survive,” says Hannity. “We worked very hard together on that. I know people remember us for our political differences, but our personal differences did not exist. We were good friends. He was a great man, kind, generous, wonderful, and the world is a little less nice today in my opinion.”

Hannity & Colmes launched Oct. 7, 1996, and ran until Jan. 9, 2009, showcasing the pair’s strong opposing political views.

“Alan believed everything he said, and I think that was one of the reasons for the great success of the show,” he adds. “He really believed in what we were talking about. He worked so hard and was really such a big part of the success of the channel and show. He accomplished a lot more than anybody would have ever expected. We grew together. When we first started, we both felt like the luckiest people in the world and we both worked hard to make the show what it became, the number one show in the slot and we were both very proud of it — two lucky guys who got a shot of a lifetime.”

If there was one thing about the former stand-up comedian that Hannity loved was, of course, his sense of humor.

“Even though we had political disagreements, how could you not love Alan?” Hannity says. “I can’t tell you how many of my conservative friends that have been on the show with Alan for years, he was our favorite liberal — the nicest liberal. He was the guy you wanted to hang out with. He was the real deal. I’ve always said the hardest people to debate are comedians, because they could make a great point and then ten minutes along, they come out with a joke — Alan was the best at that.” 

“It used to drive me nuts,” laughs Hannity. “But he had a wicked sense of humor. The good thing is, when the show was over, the show was over, and we weren’t talking about politics. We agreed to disagree.”

Report: Feds Forked Out $1 Billion in Social Security Benefits to People Without SSN

On Tuesday, The Political Insider reported on a set of memos issued by the Department of Homeland Security detailing the agency’s immigration priorities under the Trump administration.

In addition to prioritizing the deportation of illegal immigrants convicted or charged with a crime, President Trump has also pledged to deport illegal immigrants who have abused welfare programs.

This here has got to come to a screeching halt!

This last comes on the heels of a damaging report that found the Social Security Administration paid approximately $1 billion in benefits to individuals with no Social Security Number (SSN).

From The Washington Free Beacon:

The agency’s inspector general found errors in the government’s documentation for representative payees, otherwise known as individuals who receive retirement or disability payments on behalf of another person who is incapable of managing the benefits themselves.

The audit released Friday found thousands of cases where there was no SSN on file.

Over the last decade, the agency paid $1 billion to 22,426 representative payees who “did not have an SSN, and SSA had not followed its policy to retain the paper application.”

“Furthermore, unless it takes corrective action, we estimate SSA will pay about $182.5 million in benefits, annually, to representative payees who do not have an SSN or paper application supporting their selection,” the inspector general said.

The inspector general also found the agency paid $853.1 million in benefits since 2004 to individuals who had been terminated as representative payees by the agency.

The report notes that “Illegal aliens without SSNs are allowed to receive benefits from the government when acting as representatives for their minor children.” It is unclear how many recipients of the $1 billion in improper Social Security benefits were in this country illegally.

Given that the Social Security Administration gave more than $1 billion in benefits to individuals without SSN’s, do you support President Trump’s pledge to deport illegal immigrants who abuse our public benefit programs?

A fake news website is offering depressed Hillary Clinton supporters a safe space where they can pretend she won the presidential election.

The website, hillarybeattrump.org, provides readers with fake stories from an alternative universe where Hillary Clinton was successful in her bid for the White House.

Story headlines include “Historians say Clinton’s presidency is already in ‘all time top 5,'” “Trump vehemently denies mental illness, explaining: ‘I’m on tons of cocaine,'” and ironically, “Confused by fake news, Redditors think Trump is president.”

The site bears the header, “President Hillary Rodham Clinton,” and its slogan reads, “News from the Real America, Where the Majority Rules.”

“In the midst of a Constitutional crisis, this is our response. Long live the true president, Hillary Rodham Clinton,” reads the site’s information page.

The site’s editors claim that they satirically cover an assortment of topics including the “alt-right,” “Brexit,” “Bra-burning,” and “Putin.”

The topic “failed candidate Trump,” has been written on 19 times. One of the fictional stories claims that after losing November’s election, Donald Trump announced a bid to challenge Bill De Blasio for his seat as the Mayor of New York City.

Ex-US Attorney General Eric Holder to lead Uber's sexual harassment probe

Why would you hire a known liar, responsible for the death of hundreds, who became the only cabinet member in U.S. history to be held in contempt of Congress?

--------------------------------------------

Uber hired former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to lead its review of a sexual harassment claim made by a female former engineer at the company who claims her career prospects suffered after she complained about advances from a manager.

Holder will investigate claims made by the woman and look at questions surrounding diversity and inclusion at the company, CEO Travis Kalanick told his employees in a memo on Monday, Reuters reported. 

Holder will be joined by Tammy Albarran, a fellow partner at the Los-Angeles-based Covington & Burling law firm.

Holder worked for Airbnb last year to help create an anti-discrimination policy. The company had received complaints of discrimination based on race, gender, and sexual orientation, Reuters reported.

Kalanick said in the memo that a few of the company's female staff will assist in the review, including board member Arianna Huffington.

The harassment claims came to light Sunday when Susan Fowler Rigetti published a blog post titled “Reflecting on one very, very, strange year at Uber.” 

She said in the post that she joined Uber as a site reliability engineer in November 2015 in San Francisco. On her first official day with the ride-sharing app, Rigetti says her boss propositioned her in a string of messages on the company chat. As it was “clearly out of line,” she took screen shots of the remarks and contacted the firm’s human resources department.

“When I reported the situation, I was told by both HR and upper management that even though this was clearly sexual harassment and he was propositioning me, it was this man's first offense and that they wouldn't feel comfortable giving him anything other than a warning and a stern talking-to,” she wrote. “Upper management told me that he ‘was a high performer’ (i.e. had stellar performance reviews from his superiors) and they wouldn't feel comfortable punishing him for what was probably just an innocent mistake on his part.”

The manager is not named in the blog post.

Rigetti said that she left the team. But she said as she tried to progress in Uber, she found her way blocked. She alleged that sexism was rampant in the company, and that when she pointed that out at a company meeting, she was rebuffed.

Kalanick responded quickly to the claims. “What's described here is abhorrent & against everything we believe in,” he tweeted Sunday. “Anyone who behaves this way or thinks this is OK will be fired.”

Rigetti left Uber in December, according to her blog post.

The engineer’s blog post also describes a bizarre alleged incident involving leather jackets. She said the director of engineering ordered leather jackets for the site's reliability engineers, but later decided it would only give the jackets to male engineers because there were too few women in the company to qualify for a bulk purchase discount.

"The director replied back, saying that if we women really wanted equality, then we should realize we were getting equality by not getting the leather jackets," she wrote. "He said that because there were so many men in the org, they had gotten a significant discount on the men's jackets but not on the women's jackets, and it wouldn't be equal or fair, he argued, to give the women leather jackets that cost a little more."

Fowler’s post sparked backlash against Uber with the social movement #DeleteUber, which called for users to delete the app off of their mobile devices.

Uber faced backlash last month after Uber allegedly turned on its surge pricing feature during the chaos at John F. Kennedy Airport involving President Trump’s travel ban.
