Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the Nostven News. Wednesday, November 20th, 2004, stand up for your country. Breaking news today. That's Savage, Jose Abara, Venezuelan undocumented migrant gang member, sentenced to life.
Starting point is 00:00:29 He'll never. ever get out of prison for killing 22-year-old Lakin Riley in Georgia. This was a, this whole case was a piece of history, and I don't think most people understand why. I said very early on that Georgia would go for Donald Trump because Ms. Riley was murdered by this undocumented migrant who then becomes the similar. of President Biden's insane open border policy. So I don't want to hear from Geraldo saying that most migrants are lawful and, you know, Americans commit crimes at a higher rate than migrants.
Starting point is 00:01:14 I don't hear any of that because that pettifogs the issue. The issue is you, the President of the United States, allowed people in here, maybe 15 million of them, and you have no idea who they are, where they are, or what they're doing. It's in the top 10 most irresponsible policies ever in this country. And it led to Kamala Harris' defeat because all she did was giggle her assent to the insanity that Joe Biden imposed. So now it comes full circle. I will tell you that Jose Abara, there's a good chance he'll be murdered in prison, the
Starting point is 00:01:55 Markman. All right. And if they can kill him, the other inmates, they'll kill him. If he gets joined up in a gang, the gang will protect him, but then he will have to kill for the gang. Well, this guy might kill somebody inside prison. I don't usually do speculating, but you need to know what the situation is in federal penitentiaries around the country. See, it isn't safe. If you don't believe me, go up to Boston and ask why he bulger's friends, okay?
Starting point is 00:02:27 The total American penitentiary and prison systems in each state have to be revamped. And it's going to cost a lot of money to do that, but there's more crime inside prison and outside sometimes. And it's got to stop. But that's another day. So Lake and Riley and her family get some sense of justice here. Judge did the right thing. Um, Abara, still around to do damage, but I, uh, the odds of him, uh, living much longer, you make the call.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Okay. Talking points memo. MSNBC is finished. Now, this is another incredible underreported story, but I am your media guy. 50 years in January. Okay. So MSNBC is a hateful, and I mean that literally, far-left network. Everybody knows that.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Its baseline of operations is between, in prime time, a million and two million viewers. It's nothing. It's been around since July 15, 1996, Fox News Channel started three months. later. In the beginning, MSNBC was simply an arm of NBC news because NBC had no outlet other than the half-hour nightly newscast at that time anchored by Tom Brokaw for its news. And they said, okay, well, we'll get a network 24 hours. We can put all our correspondents there and we can do bigger stories. So the intention in the beginning was fine. Enter Fox News Channel and me. And we made history, media history, by just blowing the roof off the joint in primetime
Starting point is 00:04:32 by doing news analysis, making billions with a B of dollars for the parent company. And Fox surged and wiped out MSNBC and CNN and continues to do that today. And the reason is simple. Up and to that point, traditional and conservative Americans did not have any presentations on television in the news area that even respected them. It was all left-wing stuff. Not as overt it as today, but it would believe me. I worked at CBS and ABC News as a correspondent. I know.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Anyway, once NBC Comcast, which is the parent company based in Philadelphia, saw how much money that I and others were generating in prime time, they switched over to left-wing opinion. Just nothing wrong with that. But then they injected hate into their presentation. Roll the table. And this is a president who has activated. pro-Trump paramilitary groups that, you know, wear insignia and t-shirts and hold placards celebrating literally right-wing death squads. Yes, this race will be far too close because, unfortunately, we do have a fascist groundswell in parts of this country,
Starting point is 00:06:02 mainly among white men, let's be clear, but in small pockets among black and brown men, too. Donald Trump is the only presidential nominee of a major party in the history of this country who has admired Adolf Hitler, the only one. Stop me if you've heard this one before. Republican speaks the truth about Donald Trump. Donald Trump smears, attacks, and belittles them.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Republican falls in line rather than face excommunication from the party. I mean, really, how many times at this point have we seen this movie? Okay, so now it is all over for those people. What does that mean? So Comcast has decided to uncouple MSNBC from NBC News. So no longer will they share, I guess, personnel information.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Nobody really knows, but NBC News is hemorrhaging viewers. Its nightly newscast is down 20% in five years. The Today Show is down 30%. And one of the reasons it's hemorrhaging viewers is because traditional and conservative Americans, which about 50% of the country may be more, will watch it because of MSNBC. So it took them a long time to figure this out. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets.
Starting point is 00:07:40 And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and still. 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. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401k, tax and penalty free. With billions and precious metals delivered thousands of five our reviews, and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau. You can trust American Hartford Gold, as I do. Please call 866-326-55-7576, or text bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-3-26-5-7576, or text bill to 998899. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast.
Starting point is 00:08:43 reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially 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 Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. But the election of Donald Trump made it crystal clear that the haters and the far-left progressives on MSNBC are damaging the bottom line.
Starting point is 00:09:25 You damage corporate bottom line, you're done. So now, today, Comcast says MSNBC is going to go over here, not going to be associated with NBC News any longer. Huge story. Have you heard it? They don't want to report it. Along with MSNBC, you got CNBC, sci-fi channel, golf channel, USA Network, all being shunned to the side. And if you want to buy it, you can buy it. Comcastle Salty.
Starting point is 00:09:57 You probably get a pretty good deal. And I wouldn't be surprised if George Soros steps up buying radio stations, right? But they just want to get rid of this. okay and the people who work there are in dire trouble who's going to pay them i'm guessing doesn't want to pay him doesn't want the operation this is mattow morning joe meek all these people who are making pretty good money bye all right big big development in in the media so the last part of this analysis and the talking points memo is passive retribution, the best kind. All right, I will tell you the truth. When I see one of my enemies
Starting point is 00:10:46 go down, makes me happy. And I, I'm sorry, it's probably, I'll probably have to confess it to the Monsignor, but I don't have anything to do with it. They're my enemy, and I choose my enemies pretty they have to be pretty bad okay they go down kind of makes my day I'm not proud of it I'm telling you the truth Donald Trump got tormented by not only MSNBC but NBC news and all three other of the networks did the same thing okay all right he didn't do anything other than get tormented. Now he's sitting in Mar-a-Lago, President-elect, and the tormentors are all going to be out of work. Every one of them. That's called passive retribution. I don't know if he's feeling good about it. I don't even know if he
Starting point is 00:11:47 knows about it. But that's the memo. Joe Biden has nothing on his schedule today. It is his birthday. We'll deal with that a little later. Happy birthday, Mr. President. Trump is in Florida. He's interviewing people for the position of Secretary of the Treasury. Okay. Biden, even though he doesn't do anything today, has issued a few Ukrainian orders. Another 275 million weapons package for Kiev. A lot of money, a lot of taxpayer money going in there. Okay. And Putin says that one of the U.S. missiles, long-range missiles, did hit Russian soil, and that was okayed by Biden just a few days ago, with no explanation. He didn't say, hey, I delayed it for a year
Starting point is 00:12:41 and a half, but now I'm going to do it, even though I'm out in 60 days. Why are you doing it? Why do you want to provoke Putin with a new incoming administration? Why? is Biden. Did he ever explain the open border? No. Did he ever explain how he ignited inflation to one of the worst situations in the history of this country? No. Never explains. It just does stupid stuff. This is stupid. As I said, Trump and Putin, I believe, already have a deal, a ceasefire deal over there. Is Biden trying to mess it up? I don't know. But you should just keep your eye on it. And Donald Trump has not said anything about this. Zero, which for him is very unusual. But that reinforces my belief that he's got to deal with Putin. All right, Cabinet Madness,
Starting point is 00:13:41 new appointees, here they are, Linda McMahon, she's a wrestling person, I made her money there, Dr. Oz, head of Medicare and Medicaid. Linda McMahon had an education. Howard Lutnik, Commerce Secretary, Matthew Whitaker, U.S. Ambassador in the NATO. Nothing much there in those picks. There is a poll, well, morning consult, 2,185 registered voters about what do you think of Trump's nominees, cabinet nominees. Here they are. Mike Huckabee, 44% approved, 31 disapproved. Marco Rubio's Secretary of State, 45.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Approve, 34 disapprove. Elise Stefatic, the Congresswoman, 38 approved, 29 disapprove, ambassador to the United Nations. Stephen Miller, the most powerful man in Washington, deputy chief of staff for policy. 36% approve, 30 disapprove. Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, 39% approved, 33 disapprove. and the Wall Street Journal is really on Tulsi Gabbard's case. They don't want her at all. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Secretary of Health and Human Services, 44 approved, 39 disapproved.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Ramoswamy and Musk, they're not appointees to cabinet positions, they're advisors. Ramoswami's got 39% approved, 34 disapproved, Musk got 45 approved, 40 disapproved. So it's like a five-point gap. in this poll. And it's all politics. Pete Hague, Seth, defense secretary, 37 approved, 32 disapprove, Governor Kristy Knoem, Homeland Security, 37 approved, 33 disapprove. And the only one underwater is Matt Gates for Attorney General, 34% approved, 41 disapproved. And as I told you, I do not believe Mr. Gates will survive as a cabinet chief. Joining us now, West Palm Beach, Florida, Eric Bowling,
Starting point is 00:16:03 and he is on Rumble YouTube all over the place with a presentation called Bowling. At first, I thought it was 10 pins, but then I realized it was political commentary named after him. be a while. I had my bowling shirt and shoes on to watch bowling, but I didn't need them. Before we get into your opinion on the cabinet stuff, and it is hysteria officially now, what is your percentage of agreement with the Trump administration? Are you 100%? Are you 75? Where are you on that? Well, Bill, really good to be back with you. I want to wish you a happy 50th
Starting point is 00:16:47 golden anniversary like you've been married to the media for 50 years i believe it's golden um where am i with trump if you remember in 2015 and 2016 early on at fox news i was probably the only on-air talent who said trump is going to be the next president there are others that came along later handed he is a well-known he's a friend of my well-known eventual trump supporter mark levin the same thing but they were ted cruise guys for and so i've known trump for the better part of 30 years as you have and i just saw the businessman so So where am I with Trump? I line up, let's say I line up almost perfectly with his ideology.
Starting point is 00:17:24 I'm a newer school, America First, MAGA type versus the more traditional Republican type, the Mitt Romney's, the George Bushies, and those types. So I would say ideologically, I line up perfectly with him. I'm a friend of his during the first administration. It was not unusual to get a phone call at night from the White House saying the president wants to have a chat with you, and I would take the call, whether I'm in bed and sleeping, it didn't matter. I've been to the White House dozens of times to meet with him and talk to him. If that's the question, that's where I stand.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Okay. Is there anything that you have criticized him for, say, in this campaign? Yes. There is one issue that I've criticized him for in the first one, and this one, I'm against escalating fees and tariffs against foreign countries. a business issue. Okay. Indeed. All right, but all of the cabinet picture, you're okay with them. No problem with any of them? Well, let's put it this way. I believe that the American people have given Donald Trump president 47. That's the sad answer. Come on, stop. I'm talking to you, Eric Bowles. It's relevant, though. Bill, you and I go away back. This is relevant. They gave him a mandate. It doesn't matter who. You're a political commentator. You shouldn't be swayed by any voting or anything like that. should make up your own mind and give your opinion to the people.
Starting point is 00:18:47 I'm scolding you now. I think, I think, of the cabinet person that you don't approve of. Maybe Howard Lutnik, maybe it would be the only one. Another economic, another economic. Yeah, well, yeah, but for reasons that you may or may not. Do you understand at this morning console, Paul, and that's a left-wing outfit morning counsel, okay, that the only, only cabinet person underwater is Matt Gates. Do you understand why? Of course, I understand why. Why is the underwater? Because the media hates Matt Gates.
Starting point is 00:19:27 They've hated him straight through. He's been a Trump loyalist from 2016 straight through. There's no varying on his loyalty to Donald Trump. He also went after, you know, he was instrumental, probably the most instrumental voice that got rid of Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy's gavel. Was that a good thing? From his dying, of course it was a good thing. It was a good thing to dump, right? Wait, wait, wait. Why was it a good thing to dump McCarthy?
Starting point is 00:19:52 It seemed to me that he was a fairly effective speaker whereby I had access to both sides of the house. Why was it good to dump him? Because there's a clear divide in the Republican Party, as you know, since Donald Trump came along. There's the old school establishment wing of the party, and that was Kevin McCarthy, the Bushes, the Romneys, the roves. They're all together in a type. And then there came Donald Trump, which was a new conservative. It was a more American's personal. He had a good relationship with Trump. I mean, their buddies. Not really. You don't believe that. Yeah, McCarthy and Trump
Starting point is 00:20:28 did. Yes, I do. You don't believe that. You think Trump in McCarthy, clearly, Trump got along with Mitch McConnell as well as he possibly could too, but there's no loss between McConnell and Trump. McConnell detested Donald Trump, and it was obvious. McCarthy did. He detested the same way. Well, no, no, come on. We disagree on that. I think he needed Donald Trump's approval to get anything done. And I think grabbing the gavel out of McCarthy and handing it to Speaker Johnson wasn't upgrade. I'm not saying it's perfect, but it wasn't up. All right. I'm not going to quibble with that I didn't like, I thought McCarthy did his job and Gates was after him and he has a right to do it. I'm not saying he didn't have a right to do it. All right. So my beef with Gates
Starting point is 00:21:17 isn't about all these accusations that the dishonest media is because you are innocent to prove that's due process. And I give the former congressman due process. He's going to get murdered when the House Ethics Committee comes out, you know that. It's going to be horrible. And he's not going to be able to survive that. He's not going to be the Attorney General. But my beef is he's not qualified to be the Attorney General. He's not.
Starting point is 00:21:46 He's never done a job like that. It's a humongous agency that needs to be drained from top to bottom. Yeah, he can go in and throw grenades. But what's he going to build it up with? He doesn't have that kind of law enforcement experience. Am I wrong? Power, politics and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, newsmakers and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays. Every morning, I'll bring you the stories that matter, plus the news people actually talk about. The juicy details in the worlds of politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between.
Starting point is 00:22:58 It's what you want from the New York Post. wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast. Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, look, you said two things there, and you blew past the first one that he's going to get destroyed when the House Ethics Committee report gets revealed. The hacker has already allegedly revealed it. But again, Bill, you said it earlier.
Starting point is 00:23:26 You're innocent until proven guilty. The investigation has been dropped. He cannot be held accountable. for anything in that report because it is not consummated with the guilty verdict. But you know how the court of public opinion is. So this is just no way. The only way he gets that job is a recess appointment, which if Trump does that, he'll alienate a lot of Republicans in the Senate.
Starting point is 00:23:51 I see. And I disagree with you on that, Bill. I disagree. Wait, wait. You think Gates is going to get through the Senate confirmed? I do. And let me explain. Why? You and I've been doing this. I've been doing it 25 years. You've been doing it twice as long. But you know the minute someone's elected, whether it's a house member, senator or dog freaking catcher, the minute they're elected, they're looking for their next re-election. They're looking for donors. They care about those positions. Trump's got four years. So it's Senate seats are six-year appointments. So anyone over the next four years that comes up does not want to get into the buzzsaw that is Donald Trump right now, the mandate that he's got. If you take down one of the
Starting point is 00:24:30 There are some senators who will go along to get along, okay? There are, but there are enough dissenters in there that he's not going to get confirmed. And I'll privately make a bet with you for charity, of course. Now, the other guy is Bobby Kennedy, Jr. So, I mean, he did a great job in New York cleaning up the Hudson River. People have forgotten about that. So he does have some administrative skill. RFK Jr. does. But his conspiracy theories, and they're going to ram those down his throat
Starting point is 00:25:06 in the Senate confirmation. Some of them are so whacked out, it's just impossible to believe a responsible adult could actually say that stuff. And I don't see him getting through either. Interesting you bring Bobby Kennedy up. By the way, both friends of my Mac Gates and Bobby Kennedy need full transparency here. And I just texted Robert half an hour ago, not about about this. So Robert Kennedy Jr., Robert Kennedy's father was appointed Attorney General at 30-something years old by John F. Kennedy with absolutely no experience to be Attorney General. So let's just lay the groundwork for all the Democrats saying Gates doesn't have the experience to be Attorney General. But Bobby Kennedy has said he's not against all vaccines. He just wants more
Starting point is 00:25:54 research. He can say whatever he wants now. But there's a tape a mile long of him saying whacked out things, about not just vaccines, but other stuff as well. And again, he's got a better chance than Gates to get through. But I don't think either of them are going to get through. So can I just ask you your basis is that they're not qualified or things they've said. Let's, let's take Lloyd Austin as the defense secretary. No, no, that's a what about is. Look, look, qualified, but failed miserably at the job. Of course. There wasn't one cap. member, not one, in the entire Biden administration for four years that did anything to help this country. Not one. So qualifications don't mean you're going to be successful in job. Maybe
Starting point is 00:26:41 a commitment to the boss's vision is more important. Number one, Trump is making a mistake because he's creating turbulence with some of these picks that he doesn't have to create. Pam Bondi should be the AG. She ran Florida as the attorney general. She's loyal to Trump. She's smart. And I mean, it's not even close between her qualification and Gates. And I can give you 10 in Health and Human Services that have more experience and are more focused than RFK.
Starting point is 00:27:14 What Trump likes to do is blow things up and create all of this controversy. He loves it. He lives for it. But I'm forbidding that in this time, you just won so big, you don't need to do it. Let's have some calm until your inauguration, and then, you know, all hell is going to break loose after that. Last word. My last word is we've done that before, and what Trump is basically telling the world, Democrats,
Starting point is 00:27:42 even establishment Republican types, said that it's his four years, and he's going to do whatever the hell he wants. Yeah, there are probably more qualified people in every single position, including Secretary of Defense, but Trump is telling the world it's his policy, it's his, it's his ball now. You want to play ball. You're going to have to play in my stadium. In fact, all the referees are named Trump in my stadium. It's like going into Kansas City and trying to beat the chiefs when every referee has the last name of Holmes.
Starting point is 00:28:11 So by the way, that attitude can cut both ways. It can be good. He's a disruptor. Bill, he's a disruptor. And disruptors disrupt. But in order to be great presidents, after the disruption, you have to work for the people in an effective way. And you need good people to do that. Eric Bowling, you check them out on. I will call you about that bet.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Okay, you're going to get it. And then I'm going to gloat. I'm going to gloat when you lose. Okay, that's good. All right. Good. There's another unbelievable controversy is get no play, Oprah Kamala. So at first, Oprah Winfrey said, I don't know you can get anything. And then it was a report that she got a million bucks out of the Washington an examiner, but she said, I didn't get any of that money. It went to my production company Harpo. Okay. But now of the New York Times says she got $2.5 million for one day, a one-day event for Kamala Harris. All right. Now, that's unsettling. I was going to say a fraud, but I can't because they don't have the books. But I did this. You remember the O'Reilly
Starting point is 00:29:24 Trump History Tour? That was my production company. I put it together. It didn't come close. Four giant arena shows, two in Florida, two in Texas. Didn't come close to $2.5 million overhead. Okay? Didn't come close. We had to pay Trump, and that was separately.
Starting point is 00:29:46 But logistics to put it together, four didn't come close to $2.5 million. And we were in the big arenas, not some little place we're open. was. So there's something really wrong here. Now, just to refresh your memory on the history tour, we have a clip.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Go. So I'm trying to assess Putin and Xi. Who between the two is a bigger threat to America? When you have nuclear, everybody's a threat.
Starting point is 00:30:22 That's why I ended the Iran nuclear deal, because Iran was a threat. And I think they're going to give it back to them, which is not even believable. And if they do, Israel may not exist for very long, because that's what they have in mind. You can never do that. But I think when you have nuclear weapons, it's a different ballgame. There's two individuals who can order the nuclear weapons here. Let me tell you about both. I know both of them, even better than I know you. And I know you pretty well. But I know both of them, even, even better. I would say this, both very, very
Starting point is 00:30:58 strategic, very, very smart. They both love their countries. They really do. They love their countries. They were afraid of this country, of our country. Okay. So again, I put those shows together, and it wasn't close to
Starting point is 00:31:14 production expenses at $2.5 million for shows. Now, Harris, the campaign, pumped in $2.5 million over. What do you go? What's going on? The campaign raised 1.2 billion, but they're $20 million in debt, the Harris campaign.
Starting point is 00:31:36 1.2 billion wasn't enough. And now they're in debt, now they're asking for people to bail them out. You've got to be absolutely nuts to do that. But I think the Federal Election Commission should look into this. There's something wrong here, and I know it. owned by a billionaire, Jeff Bezos, is going to lose $77 million a share. So talking about the MSNBC collapse on the Hannity radio program today. We have it posting on Bill O'Reilly.com
Starting point is 00:32:10 as we do each week. And I brought up the Washington Post. They can't sustain this. This number comes from New York Magazine, not the greatest source in the world, but I believe it's close to $77 million. One year they're losing that newspaper. And again, this is passive retribution.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Donald Trump just sitting there watching all his enemies blow up. The View, and this makes ABC, just like NBC, big trouble because ABC News runs the view. So yesterday, they convicted Mack Gates of heinous crimes, right, eight and a half minutes. The ladies of the view, convicted the man, no due process, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty. Well, at the end of the segment, ABC legal forced Sonny Hosten to read a statement. Go. Sonny, you have a legal note. I do have a legal no.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Thank you, Whoopi. Matt Gates has long denied all allegations, calling the claims, quote, invented. And saying in a statement to ABC News, that this false smear following a three-year criminal investigation should be viewed with great skepticism, that DOJ investigation was closed with no charges being brought. They forced her to read that live time on the program, the ABC News Lawyers.
Starting point is 00:33:45 So I am here to predict right here that the view is not going to be run by ABC News much longer because the whole ABC News operation is tainted. by that show. Smart life. It's a study at a Florida Atlantic University. Alcohol-related deaths in the USA have doubled in 20 years. And this is misleading because there are far more alcohol-related deaths than are reported
Starting point is 00:34:15 because the cirrhosis of the liver and other things that kill you that booze causes. So anyway, here's the data. 1999, 20,000 alcohol-related deaths about 2020, 50,000. So people are boozing it up. All over the world, by the way, not just in the United States. Alcohol is becoming more frequently used. You know what the country the worst is? Latvia.
Starting point is 00:34:45 It gets their drunk all day long over there. They're higher than the USA and France is higher. But we're at 10. I mean, we're pretty up there in booze. You know, look, all my friends drank. I'm the only teetotaler in the crew. I shouldn't say that. There's a few other guys that don't.
Starting point is 00:35:06 But boy, don't get addicted to that. That's just going to ruin your life so badly. Here's a very interesting story. So there's a museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. They have a display of a... Mosaic found in Israel, and it's 1,800 years old, all right? So 200 years after the death of Jesus, this mosaic mentions that God, Jesus Christ. So 200 years after he was executed by the Romans, and I write all about this in killing Jesus.
Starting point is 00:35:48 I hope you read that book, particularly with Christmas coming, fabulous. And it's all history, no religion. But anyway, they found this mosaic beneath a prison. And they excavated. It took them four years to put the thing back together again. And it's now in D.C. And it's the first artifact that mentions Jesus being God. And I'm going.
Starting point is 00:36:14 If I get down to D.C., I'm going to see it. That's really something. Say, in history, November 20th, 1942, Joe Biden, born in Scranton, He's had an amazing life, Mr. Biden. He's had tragedy, losing a child and a wife, no other accident, losing his son very early after he was out of the military. And he was a senator for 36 years, vice president under Obama, and president for four years. I'm nothing personal against Joe Biden. He is the second worst president performing in our country.
Starting point is 00:36:48 But I do wish him a happy birthday. Happy birthday. I mean, it's not personal, Joe. Not with me. If you were good, I'd say you were good. You weren't. Final thought about Thanksgiving dinner in a moment. All right, here is the final thought of the day. You know, it didn't used to happen in America. We just had a good time on Thanksgiving. We watched the games. We played touch football, turkey ball. It was just easy, easy, but nothing is easy anymore. Well, now you actually have to think about who you're going to be eating dinner with and what you're going to talk to them about. Because you don't want to be throwing mashed potatoes. Politics, you don't have to discuss the politics. If you want to discuss politics with somebody on Thanksgiving, go outside and take a walk. Not at the dinner table.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Keep it light. Keep it funny. What interesting things have you done? Okay? And are you going on vacation someplace? You read any good books? And then you can, of course, mention my books. But keep it light.
Starting point is 00:38:05 You have to think about it. So Uncle Lenny is coming. What does Lenny care about? What am I going to talk to Lenny about? And especially if you've got some radical conservatives or radical liberals coming. world's coming you know and it's important because it's a really nice day you don't want to ruin it with any strife word of the day beside miscreant strife prepare I'm going to talk about on to uncle Lenny about this a little Sean I'm going to talk about this house school
Starting point is 00:38:43 whatever have fun final thought all right thank you for watching and listening to the No Spin News. We'll see you again tomorrow.
