SEAN HANNITY (HOST): And Republicans with $33 trillion in debt need to take a stand that they're not going to allow this reckless spending to continue. And just because the House finally comes to agreement, doesn't mean that Mitch McConnell's going to be able to move the needle in the Senate or care to even move the needle in the Senate. And I'm sorry, but you Senate Republicans need to get your act together.

And whatever the Republicans pull off in the House, and they eventually agree to, which will itself be a compromise, the Senate needs to do their job, and then they need to be willing to let the government shut down and then blame -- put the blame where it belongs: on the people that are robbing our children and our grandchildren blind. It's time to take a stand, that's what you guys got elected for. You said you wanted to, you know, lead. This is a chance to lead.
