SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Now let me go to TV, my show, the night of January 6th, and again, all I'm saying here is pretty much everything I said in the summer of 2020. To be consistent is not really that hard in life. You know, rioting is wrong, period, end of sentence. And I believe in law and I believe in order, and I believe that, in peace and security, and safety and security for every American. 

Now, do I think there were some people, based on the reports, that there were people that had staged certain things? Yeah, I think that's true too. But anyway, we'll see -- we'll see what this ultimately comes out with, but I'm telling you, it's a predetermined outcome. Now, the allegation is, well, Hannity's inconsistent here. I'm not inconsistent at all. Because I said it all throughout the rioting in 2020.
