Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News for Thursday, April 25, 2024, stand up for your country. So the Supreme Court hearing a very important case, whether presidents of the United States have immunity for what they do in office. And this is off Donald Trump being prosecuted. prosecuted by a special counsel, Jack Smith, for actions that Trump took on January 6th during the riot at the Capitol. Okay. This is a very complicated situation because when I was researching confronting the presidents, which will be out on September 10th, there were very dubious things that presidents did while in office.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus. And the Supreme Court ordered him not to, and he said, blank you, I'm doing it. That could have gotten them in prison if after the war somebody decided to prosecute Lincoln. Lincoln was assassinated, but there wasn't even an inkling that that would happen. But what if you were a president and you used your position to enrich yourself? You made a deal with a foreign government, that money was funneled into a private secret account, and you made a treaty that benefited yourself while president. You got all this money.
Starting point is 00:01:26 And come on, that's a crime. You can't do that. So the Supreme Court has got to kind of walk this rope. Now, I'm going to have more analysis on this on Monday because I want to read the testimony today. Unlike everybody else on television news, I actually take my opinion seriously. I just don't throw them out there because I'm going to read what they have to say. But right now, from what I know, I think there's going to be a very close vote in the Supreme Court. The vote should come in the end of June. If the Supreme Court rules five to four that the presidents do have immunity, then the Trump case gets thrown out the window. If they rule five to four, because that's what it's going to be, that no, the president can
Starting point is 00:02:13 be held responsible for quote-unquote criminal conduct, then, you know, the whole thing changes. So we're on it. We're looking at it. Monday in the talking points memo, I will present it to you, but I have to do some research over the weekend. Is that fair? I hope it is. So the talking points memo this evening is the Republican Party remains divided, and this is a big deal. So the Democrats are not divided. It's just they march, whatever they're told to do by the leader in the House and a leader in the Senate? They do. There's no dissent. The squad people are loons, and sometimes they peel off a little bit. When it really comes down to it, though, they come back in, not the Republicans. And this $95 billion aid package illuminates this once again. So yesterday, as you
Starting point is 00:03:10 know, President Biden signed 95 billion taxpayer money going to Ukraine, Israel, and some South Pacific countries for national security reasons, all right? That's what the Biden administration says, that our national security is on the line because Putin's on a march in Europe, Ukraine, Hamas and a terrorist are on a march in the Middle East, and China's on the march in the Pacific. So we've got to bulwark it by giving people money to stop those marches. That's what it is. So it passed in the House, as you all, we went over that, but 112 Republicans voted against
Starting point is 00:03:53 giving Ukraine $60 billion, 112, substantial number. Okay, 21 voted against giving Israel the money they got, I think it was around $10 billion. And then 34 voted no on Indo-Pacific. Now, in a bunch of reasons, some of the politicians like Marco Rubio voted against this, okay, prestigious Republican senator, he wanted a board of thing tied into it, all right? I said, you're not going to get anywhere with that, so do separate bills, which they did. Once it got to the Senate, then they consolidated all four separate bills in a house into one, and the Senate easily passed it. Okay, so Republican and 15 Republican senators, The Republican Party is divided and they fight among each other. Look, I respect votes of conscience.
Starting point is 00:04:47 I disagree with the people who don't want to arm Ukraine. And I understand that Ukraine, when is it going to end? Was there this? And that's a corrupt conscience. I got it. Okay. But the greater good is served by blunting Putin if the world can. I'm a simple man.
Starting point is 00:05:05 So we give it a shot until it's hopeless. It's not hopeless now. hopeless now. Ukraine's done a pretty good job for two years. Bluntness, tiring. But the Republicans fight among themselves. So the hard right, they don't want any of this at all. They don't want, oh, we've got a $35 trillion deficit. The debt. Yeah, it's true. But the only way that's coming down is by a balanced budget amendment. It's the only way it's coming down. So it's not going to come down if you cut aid here or there. Not. And on the border, there is a House bill.
Starting point is 00:05:42 So let's get it up and running. Let's have the debate in the Senate. George Will writes a column for the Washington Post. George Will is what they call a traditional conservative. He despises the hard right. He hates them. Will and I don't get along. Will, I believe, leveled grossly unfair.
Starting point is 00:06:08 criticism toward killing Reagan, my book, because Will was in the Reagan's pocket. He dined with Nancy every, every week. And we told the truth about Ronald Reagan, good and bad, in killing Reagan. And that's what we're going to do in confronting the presidents. You're going to see good and bad. And then at the end, you're going to make an assessment. Was a guy helpful or hurtful to the country? But Will didn't like the fact that we brought out some things about Ronald Reagan,
Starting point is 00:06:35 absolutely 100% true, and Will couldn't refute them, but he didn't like that that we wrote it in. He said, I have much respect for him. But he wrote a column yesterday, I want to bring it to your attention, and I'm going to quote two paragraphs. The first one says, stoking the passion that is their excuse for pandering, the nihilism of the febrile minority in their party, a majority of House Republicans voted last Saturday to endanger civilization, hoping to enhance their political security and their mostly safe seats, and for the infantile satisfaction of populist naughtiness, insulting a mostly fictitious establishment, they voted to assure Vladimir Putin's attempt to erase a European nation, unquote. That's pretty accurate for Will. You don't give
Starting point is 00:07:28 Ukraine the arms, 60 billion in arms, Putin wins. Takes the country over. Second paragraph, quote, the Republican Party was founded as a noble rejection of the most consequential bad thing Congress has ever done. The 1854 Kansas-Nebraska Act, which authorized territories to vote slavery up or down, thereby valuing popular sovereignty more than liberty. On Saturday, the House voted 311 to 112 for $61 billion for Ukraine, with 112 Ig Nobel House Republicans voting to condemn Ukraine at death, starved of such military basics as artillery shells. Okay, so are these people, these hard right Congress people and senators, not all of them are hard right, but most them are. Are they bad? No, not generally speaking. They're voting their conscience, what they
Starting point is 00:08:29 should do. They say they're representing the people who voted them in, and that's what they should do. I'm not condemning them across the board. That's not what I'm doing here, telling you they're wrong. They're wrong. That if Putin takes Ukraine, this world is going to be tumultuous, because the Chinese will move right into Taiwan, the Mullahs in Iran, there's an alliance, okay? Russia, Iran, China. They're allied against the world. And you think they're going to stop? It's never going to stop. You got to stop him. Okay, so I hope you all understand where I'm coming from here. I'm not a party guy. I'm an American guy. But the Republicans, by attacking them each other, which they do on a regular basis,
Starting point is 00:09:26 let's take out the Speaker of the House, another guy, let's throw him out. You know, Johnson did a pretty good job. He came to New York and he went to Columbia. Did you see Chuck Schumer in Columbia? He's a senator from New York Schumer. He didn't show up. Uh-uh. There's Johnson from Louisiana.
Starting point is 00:09:44 He's there. And you want to move this guy out? after you move the other speaker out, McCarthy? That's what you're trying to do now? Marjorie Taylor Green? Come on. It's so absurd. You know, you want to blow your own party up
Starting point is 00:10:01 and reassure the Democrats and assure the Democrats when in November? My God. I mean, how bad does a Biden administration have to get before you wise up? And you have to make some accommodations. So the Republican Party is not doing that. And that gives the Democrats a huge advantage in November, huge.
Starting point is 00:10:23 And that's a moment. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust. American Hartford gold. And you can do this. get precious metals delivered to your door or place in a tax advantage gold IRA.

Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics.
Starting point is 00:11:40 President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on. on the topics the mainstream media won't. So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch or getting ready for the drive home, new episodes of the Sean Spicer Show podcast drop at 2 p.m. East Coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. All right. Biden goes to Syracuse, New York,
Starting point is 00:12:08 delivers remarks about chips and science or something I don't even know. Nobody cares. But he's there to collect money. Then he comes down to Westchester County, just north of New York City. And he goes to a big fundraiser. Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones, his wife, are hosting this. I wonder if Catherine's going to wear that outfit, I don't know. And that's why Michael Douglas said the other day that President Biden Sharp is a tack.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Okay. I don't think I would use that tack to tack. anything, but that's why he did it. All right. So Biden isn't doing anything today by collecting money. Then he's coming down in a city from Westchester about 20 miles, but he's not going to Columbia University. So what's he doing in the city? We don't know. White House won't tell us what he's doing. I don't know what he's doing, but I assume he's raising more money because that's what he does every day. I've never seen a president really like this, ever.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Okay. Now, the press, obviously, covers for Biden all the time. Did you know that Biden put forth a new budget for 2025? I didn't even know that. Now, that's my fault because the budget was put forth a few weeks ago. I don't even know it. So now I get this missive I'm looking at it. In this budget, President Biden proposes a 45% capital gains tax.
Starting point is 00:13:51 That would destroy the stock market. I wouldn't buy stocks, would you? That if you over profit in the stock, you're going to pay 45% to the government. That doesn't even count states. I'm just going to give you a little list. If that ever passed, which it won't, you'd pay 59% cap gains in California, 55 in Jersey, 55 in Oregon, 55 in Minnesota, and 54 in New York. Who's going to invest?
Starting point is 00:14:21 No one. No one's going to invest in Americans' companies. Biden is, it's socialism. So we're going to take more than half of any profit you make. And if you lose, tough, you can write off 3,000 of any law. So if you lose, tough. But if you win, we won half. This is Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Now, is Joe Biden a communist? No. He has not said he wants to seize private property. Is he a socialist? Looks like it. Looks like it to me. Everybody went Obama's socialist, Obama socialist, Obama. Biden makes Obama look like the Rockefeller family.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh my God. It's just staggering. So, somebody should tell, by the way, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones, who lived very, very large, that Biden's after the, Biden probably go into the house and with a pen and pen and go, well, he texts this, we'll take that, and all that. Okay. So yesterday in D.C., the president was giving a speech to North American Building Trade Unions. All right. Here's how that went. I see an American where we protect freedoms, not take them away. I see an economy that growth in the middle, out, and the bottom up where the wealthy pay their fair share so we can have child care, paid leave, and so much more, and still reduce the federal deficit
Starting point is 00:15:55 and increase economic growth. Folks, imagine what we can do next. Four more years. For more years. For more years. Four more years. Four more year, pause. So he read the instructions on a teleprompter and say, pause.
Starting point is 00:16:18 He didn't, he wasn't supposed to say that. He just didn't know what he was saying. He was reciting. He can still read the teleprompter, but he doesn't know what he's actually saying, what the words actually mean. Because you couldn't know that. and then say the word pause. So it's just another of a long, long, long, long line.
Starting point is 00:16:44 You know, when I have acquaintances that are going to vote for Joe Biden, and I just say, they don't care. Biden's as sharp as attack. He isn't. He's not even close to being sharp, but that's what they want to believe, and they're going to believe it no matter what you present to them. Trump trial update, the National Inquirer guy was on today.
Starting point is 00:17:17 You know, if you want this, just go to CNN. I guess Fox is a lot of it. It's ridiculous. The only thing that was that he said under oath, this guy, David Pecker. And you've got to realize that this is the lowest of the low, the National Enquirer. You don't get low in that. He said that none of the transactions that he had with the Trump people influenced the campaign because he didn't print the stories that were salacious.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Okay, I'm not even going to go over the stories because it's not what we do here. But be that as it may, it was another day of him. Now, why is this important? Enter Harvey Weinstein. when I just said you don't get lower than the National Inquirer, he's lower. Okay, so his 2020 rape conviction in New York was overturned today.
Starting point is 00:18:16 And it was overturned by a four three decision in the Court of Appeals, New York Court of Appeals, state court. It said that the judge made a mistake because he allowed prosecutors in the way, Weinstein trial to call women who were not directly related to the case. And you're not allowed to do that. Well, what's going on in the Trump trial?
Starting point is 00:18:44 National Enquirer had nothing to do with Stormy Daniels. The other woman that they choir allegedly paid and didn't print her story has nothing to do with Stormy Daniels, nothing at all. It's exactly the same. thing. So I've said from the very beginning that the Trump lawyers are playing for appeal. And I mean, they might get a hung jury possible, but they're, and this Weinstein thing is exactly the same. You can't just, you have to stay on what the allegation is, not bring in other people disassociated to say, oh, we did the same thing. No, no.
Starting point is 00:19:30 not what our justice system is. Okay, now we've done an investigation, and I gave you a heads up on this earlier this week, about who's behind these campus demonstrations. The latest is that University of Southern California, USC, shut the whole school down. All right, we shut it down. Emerson College in Boston, cops had to come, all kinds of trouble up there. And from what we understand, 23 colleges just this week have dealt with these protests. Now, I'm going to walk through this very slowly because I didn't know any of this, and my staff
Starting point is 00:20:10 did a real good job on this. Okay, all of these anti-Israel protests are coordinated by one group. The group is called Students for Justice for Palestine. It was founded in 1993 at the University of California, Berkeley. It's been around for a while. That Students for Justice for Palestine is coordinating all of these demonstrations by using lists of known far-left sympathizers.
Starting point is 00:20:46 They have lists on the media, social media, and they blast out emails and texts to them. Okay. Now, this group, Students for Justice for Palestine, they don't raise money. All they do, they're foot soldiers. They do the hard work of getting these loopy kids out on the street. There are two organizations that fund this, okay? The first is American Muslims for Palestine, founded in Illinois in 2006, hardcore Arab sympathizers, okay? Hardcore. They raise money and they give money to the students for justice for Palestine. The second organization is the Westchester's People's Action Coalition, Wiesbach, found in White Plains, New York, 1974. Again, been around for a while. Far, far, far left.
Starting point is 00:21:53 organization who donates to it, how about George Soros? Okay, hundreds of thousands of dollars in there for George. And they are an organization that is not just anti-Israel, they want to disrupt the United States of America. And here's the worst thing about it. Both American Muslims for Palestine and the Westchester People's Action Coalition, if you donate to them, you can write it off on your taxes. So they're fostering violence, and you can write that off. Now, immediately, the Biden administration should suspend. Okay, they are not non-profits. They are activist groups. But of course, Biden won't do it. So there you have it. If you are a Bill O'Reilly.com premium or concierge member, you can get
Starting point is 00:22:53 a transcript of what I just said and keep that transcript, I guarantee you you will hear that story nowhere else. Okay, NBC News, no. NPR, no. Fox News, no. Why wouldn't Fox News do it? It doesn't have the will to do it. Could, but they're not set up for that now. They used to be, but now it's chat. Chat, chat, chat, chat, chat, chat. Now, I'm not disparaging them. I'm just telling you you will not get that information anywhere else from the media, but here. So it's worth your while to become a premium or concierge member on Bill O'Reilly.com to have access to all of this information.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Because people just don't know about it. And, you know, it's important. So we have a system here where you can give money to radical left organizations and write it off in those organizations, in my opinion, foster violence and hatred and anti-Semitism and a whole bunch of other stuff. Imagine if you could write off donations to the Klan or the American Nazi Party or the Stormfront. Okay? Do you think there'd be a little bit of controversy on that? I think so. Think those networks
Starting point is 00:24:24 will be reporting that? Oh, you bet. But radical left, hey, take it off your taxes. Unbelievable. It really is. But I'm glad we can bring you that information. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays.

You don't want to miss an episode.
Starting point is 00:25:51 Smart life. So this may be a record-breaking travel summer in America. Already the airlines are booking fast. If you're going to fly someplace, you better get with them soon. People are moving around. I got some cash. All right, they're going to take vacations. Smart life.
Starting point is 00:26:16 You've got to choose your airline in some places you can. You just got one choice. is horrible. So the three worst for on-time performance and cancellations are, drum roll please, Frontier Airlines. JetBlue. Oh, JetBlue. Yes. Do I have a vendetta against JetBlue? Yeah, I do. Okay. Just Google me in JetBlue and you'll find out why. Spirit Airlines. And JetBlue wanted to buy Spirit Airlines. Even Buttigieg, even the government said, no. You're so bad separately.
Starting point is 00:27:00 We're not going to let you merge so you can terrorize the flying consumer. So they said no. And JetBlue and Spirit couldn't ally. They are the worst. Now, who are the best? Okay. Alaska Airlines, I always have a good reputation, although I think a door blew off of their Boeing planes, see how that's not good.
Starting point is 00:27:25 And then Delta and Sky West, which are associated. I have to say I actually wrote the CEO of Delta, a letter, because I just don't want to be a negative guy. And I said, I was on a flight, one of your flights, and it was excellent. And I took the names of all the flight attendants, and I wrote them down. I send him the names, the CEO. Because when it is good, I think that a guy like me who's hypercritical should do that. And I got a nice reply from that. I forget his name, the CEO of Del. But Delta and SkyWest are the best on time people. Okay, smart life. San Francisco. So one time San Francisco
Starting point is 00:28:14 was the hottest, most lucrative real estate market in the country. All right, everybody wants to go to the city by the bay. Why? Because it's beautiful. Or it used to be. I loved going to San Francisco. And my last trip there was just in under the wire before it totally collapsed. And I took my son and we went to Alcatraz and Fisherman's Wharf and I know San Francisco very well. Chinatown. So it was ridiculous to buy a house in San Francisco. The prices were they peaked at $1.66 million in April 22. And for $1.66 million, you got a two-bedroom apartment, condo, not a house. You want a house, you better bring $5, $6 million.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Now it's dropped dramatically, okay? And it's because of the crime and the homelessness and the far-lived took over. So 18% of the homes that sold in San Francisco for the first three months of this year, 24, Okay. 18% sold at a loss. People lost an average of $155,000. And the market is flooded with sales. Flooded. People want to get out. Well, they can't. Because things are not going to get better in San Francisco. They're not. They're going to go worse and worse and worse and worse. And pretty soon, you're going to have so much anarchy there. I don't know how you can have any more than you have now. but it's possible. When I go to San Francisco now, I don't stay in the city. I stay in Marin.
Starting point is 00:30:00 I go right across the Golden Gate. There's some very nice hotels in Marin, and I take the ferry when I have to do business in San Francisco. Okay. UK. So everybody thinks England, Great Britain, and America are sympathetico like this. No. very, very apart on the migrant issue.
Starting point is 00:30:29 That's the reason Great Britain left the EU. They'd want to be flooded with people from all over the world. Once you're in the EU, there's no passport control, anybody go wherever they want, including if you're an illegal migrant. Nobody checks you. England, London said no. And I pulled out. okay now they still got migrants coming all the time they some of these people these poor people
Starting point is 00:30:56 are so desperate they go on top of the trains through the channel from france to london they're on literally on top of the train holding on that's how desperate these people are so england's been overwhelmed by migrants here's what they've done and this is a story again not reported in the United States. England made a deal with the African country of Rwanda. Remember Rwanda was a genocide place and all that? Okay, it's a little bit better now. And they gave Rwanda $300 million or pounds, whatever,
Starting point is 00:31:41 to take all of the asylum seekers that find themselves on British side. So if you get to Britain and the authorities round you up, you can't stay in Britain. You go to Rwanda, and that's where you wait. And trust me, you're going to be waiting for a long time. So the deportation flights are expected to begin this summer. You put all of the asylum people on, it's like to wait in Mexico. Mexico you're waiting just across the border. Here you're flying a thousand miles south to Rwanda. Okay? And expect to be in the summer. Totally Rwanda is going to make about
Starting point is 00:32:29 $700 million out of this. So that's why Kilgari, that's the capital of Rwanda, is doing it. 700 million. They're not going to get that anywhere else. So they're going to take the migrants. I feel desperately sorry for these people. They have nothing. And now they're going to get booted out of England or Scotland or any part of the UK, and they're going to show up in Rwanda. Did you know that? No. This is the kind of stuff that should be reported. Okay, back to the USA. 25% of Americans over the age of 50 say they never expect to retire. They're going to drop dead in the workplace. Most of it's financial.
Starting point is 00:33:18 And this comes from the AARP survey of more than 8,000 adults. They go, we can't, can't retire. All right, 25%. 70% say, we can't meet our expenses now. And that's because of Biden. Everything's higher. So Biden goes, oh, we're going to get a bunch of lies. All right, you just go down a list.
Starting point is 00:33:43 You want to buy a car, it's more expensive than it was. four years ago. House way more expensive. Insurance on anything, way more expensive. Food, 30% more. On and on and on and on and on. So the older people in America, the senior system, can't keep up. Our retirement funds and our Social Security can't keep up. So we got to work. So that's what's happening there. Now, I'm surprised the ARP is doing this because that's a very pro-Biden outfit, very left-war. wing, AARP. That's why we're at Amac. Amac does pretty much the same thing that AARP, but Amac is traditional and leans right, whereas AARP is left. Okay. Now, because of this and your computer looking at it all day, every day, near-sightedness, myopia is booming.
Starting point is 00:34:46 By 2050, half the people on earth are going to be near-sighted because of the screens. Go get ready. And if you want to buy glass, I just had to buy sunglasses, $400. $400 bucks. The prescription, but come on. All right, this week in history, this is a gruesome story. I'm sorry, but I have to bring it to your attention because it does purchase. to today.
Starting point is 00:35:19 So 91 years ago, April 26, 1933, okay? An organization called the Gestapo was foisted upon the German people. It was run at first by Herman Goering, second in command of Adolf Hitler. Then it was taken over by Heinrich Himmler, the leader of the SS. Now, if you've read my book, killing the SS, You know all this all right, okay? The Gestapo was probably the worst organization in the history of mankind.
Starting point is 00:35:56 I don't know of any worse organization than this. And these were German people. German Americans is the highest ethnic group in this country. You go to Germany and just physical, just say, so the Gestapo had unlimited power to arrest anyone it wanted without a warrant, no lawyer, they just disappeared them. They'd come into your house, they take the whole family or the father or the mother or
Starting point is 00:36:29 whoever they wanted, and that person was gone, vanished. And then when the Gestapo got them, they could torture them, they could murder them, or they could send them to concentration camps. That's why Himmler took it over, because the SS were running the concentration camps. But the Gestapo, they were in plainclothes. They were in every town. You didn't know who they were. And anybody they thought was anti-Nazi against the party. Okay?
Starting point is 00:36:58 They round up. And then when the Germans started to conquer all these countries, the Gestapo was first in. The same thing. They're the ones that got Aunt Frank in Holland. Now, why am I telling you all this? We all know how bad the Nazi regime is. Putin does exactly the same thing. There is no difference.
Starting point is 00:37:22 His security services can go into any home in Russia it wants, take anybody it wants out, put them anywhere, don't tell her family, no lawyer, nothing. China, same thing. Same thing. In China, they actually have concentration camps. They're in the Western. part of the country where nobody is, mostly Muslim activists, are put in those camps.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Okay? So China and Russia do the same thing that the Gestapo did in the Third Reich, in the 1930s and 40s. This terrorizes their population. People go, oh, why don't they rise up? You can't rise up. You say one negative word, and your own kids will testify because in school the kids are taught. If your dad or mom says something bad about the regime, you tell me, okay? Terra, you have no idea because we live in America.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Our justice system is collapsing, but it's not nearly what going on over there. Most people have no blank and clue about this. Iran is the same way. That revolutionary guard over there, they want to get you. They're going to get you. And you got, they're actually keeping a Wall Street journal reporter in prison for nothing in Russia. And the Biden administration can't get them out. Can't get them out.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Nothing. And they got another, they got three or four Americans over there. So, anyway, that happened to Gestapo 91 years ago today. Were you killing the SS? Because it's never going to happen here ever. but you need to know how bad it is in other places. And you need to know that our justice system here is not nearly what it should be.
Starting point is 00:39:17 All right, I got mail. I got a final thought that I think you're going to have a, it's a little upset some people, but other people will go, that O'Reilly. All right, so that's the final thought. Back in a moment. Okay, let's go to the mail. Gregory Pappas, Plymouth, Michigan.
Starting point is 00:39:35 We can't allow Russia to take Ukraine. But may no mistake, the U.S. and NATO better get ready to send money and material support to Ukraine for several years or longer. Putin will not give up. I believe that Donald Trump is elected president. There will be a settlement in Ukraine. I could be desperately wrong on that. But talking to Trump, he's confident he can get Putin to the table, and he's done it in the past. But you're right.
Starting point is 00:40:07 is a sociopath, he's not going to admit defeat. But if he can't move, then it behooves him to get some kind of stalemate treaty. Jim Gable, Morgantown, North Carolina, if Ukraine wins and keeps its own country, isn't that a Putin defeat? But Putin will carve out at Donbass and a few others, and he'll say, hey, we won. That's how the game is played. Melissa Sanborn, Redlands, California, why would you think, O'Reilly, Your statement about not wanting to be Biden on Judgment Day would be controversial. Anyone who believes in God would agree.
Starting point is 00:40:46 I don't know about that. I'm being pretty harsh on Joe Biden by saying I wouldn't want to be him in front of St. Peter, however the judgment goes down. I'm being pretty harsh on him. I don't know if everybody would agree with that. I don't think so. Mark, concierge member, thank you, Mark. The media propaganda fest wouldn't be possible without 50% of the population being either brain debt or on drugs or hopelessly selfish. It's true.
Starting point is 00:41:17 I mean, there are millions of people who watch MSNBC. Millions. They don't do well, but over a period of a week, you get tune in at that level. Donna Flynn Hedges, Binghamton, New York. I have a friend who's a Democrat and believes the gas prices are going off because the companies are gouging. has nothing to do with Joe Biden, what do you think I should say to her? Nothing. You can believe what you wants to believe. Doesn't matter. You could produce a chart and all of that. You know, not going to believe it. So don't say anything.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Michael, a concierge member, I have not given up in America, never will. However, I no longer volunteer and I no longer make financial donations. I just pray and I vote. You know, it's your choice. I give donations, a lot of them, to help kids. and I just gave an animal shelter in my area a donation. So I'm not, but I don't, I haven't given up on America. I think it was still by far the best country. Okay, so we got the mug shipping out tomorrow. Woke, not woke, not woke and self-reliance.
Starting point is 00:42:27 We ship tomorrow. Here is the important thing. The not-woke mug is the hottest mug we've ever had, made in the USA. I say.

Starting point is 00:42:59 gifts on Bill O'Reilly.com in the store. Word of the day, no chuffiness, C-U-F-F-I-N-E-S, no chuffiness. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com. Name in town, if you wish to opine. I'm back with a final thought in a moment. All right, here's the final thought. I wrote a message of the day, and I hope you read that. It's free.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Let's go every morning. About a phone call I have with Donald Trump in 2016. and the phone call concerned his at the time lawyer Michael Cohen, who's now involved at Trump trial in New York City. And on that phone call, I called Michael Cohen a weasel. That was eight years ago. And I write the message of the day and explain why, and I'm an Oracle.
Starting point is 00:43:53 I told Mr. Trump, this guy is a weasel, you better not trust him. That is the message of the day, should you want to check it out on bill o'Reilly.com. We will have a new column on Sunday. We thank you very much for watching and listening to the Nodespin News. We'll see you again on Monday.
