Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News. Wednesday, September 6, 2020, stand up for your country. Public disorder. It's the third biggest issue in the upcoming presidential campaign. First is the economy. Second is illegal immigration, being overrun now on the border. Third is public disorder. Now, that affects all of us. Even if you live in the mountains of Montana, the bitter roots, or you're up in Maine near the Canadian border, public disorder affects you. Might not understand how, but it does. And if you live in a large city, then you see. it every day. Public disorder at this point in history in America is a progressive issue.
Starting point is 00:01:08 The progressive movement has caused the public disorder. There is no two sides to that story, and that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. 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.
Starting point is 00:01:41 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. billions in precious metals delivered thousands of five-star reviews and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau. You can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326-5-7576 or text bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-326-5776 or text bill to 998899. 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.
Starting point is 00:02:36 The juicy details in the worlds of politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between. 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 Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, Philadelphia, progressive town. Okay, police commissioner, Danielle Outlaw, has resigned, okay? And immediately she was hired by New York City and stayed to be the head of the Port Authority, perfect. So under Ms. Outlaw, property crime in Philadelphia is up 23%, car thefts up 105%, and retail thefts 34%.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Philadelphia is out of control. It's not her problem exclusively. It's the DA Larry Krasner, a far-left nut. He's a nut, all right, and he will not enforce the law. But outlaw went along with it. Okay, so she rode the crime wave up. She's out. Okay, she comes to New York.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Perfect. Because New York City's police commissioner, Kichent Sewell has quit, too. That happened some months ago. Did not get along with Mayor Adams. She's gone. So, Grand Larson in New York City, up 19%. All other crimes are on the rise except for murder.
Starting point is 00:04:12 So the NYPDs are going to a good job driving that down. But property crimes in New York way up, and most people don't even report them because they know, the police not going to do anything about them there are police under siege there are 10,000
Starting point is 00:04:30 officers fewer than there should be in a city of 8.5 million the police, you know, if you get ripped off, nobody's going to do anything about it. Criminals know that and so do the victims. They're going to bother.
Starting point is 00:04:47 So in St. Louis, another insanely progressive city, the DA there, Kimberly Gardner, was fired by the state attorney general. She's out. Why? Carjacking St. Louis up 325%. 325%. Robberies up 28, shoplifting five, on and on and on and on. I'm not dealing with violent crime here. I'm dealing with property crime. Okay? San Francisco, you already know. Chesa Boudin recalled. by the liberal voters in San Francisco, boot it out.
Starting point is 00:05:26 San Francisco, you can't even go there anymore. Robberies have increased this year, 17%, motor vehicle up 12%, on and on and on and on. Can't walk to streets. San Francisco. L.A., according to the National Retail Federation, is the worst city for retail theft, probably in the world
Starting point is 00:05:51 because other countries enforce the law, most of them, not here, not in L.A. So Capital One, all right, the bank card, estimates that $87 billion is stolen from retail outlets every year. Okay, you see the staff for 2022. The average shoplifter is arrested once out of every 100 thefts.
Starting point is 00:06:23 So you have a 1% chance if you shoplift of being arrested. 9% of American adults shoplift. I mean, it's insane. Okay, well, I guess I know nothing's going to happen to them. Flash mobs. All right, this is a West Coast thing. It's going to spread all over. So in Home Depot, L.A. County, Flash mob went in, stole $5,000 worth of merchandise,
Starting point is 00:06:57 and full view of the staff, customers, walked in, seven mass thieves, stole everything they could steal. No urgency. This took it. There it is. I didn't even run it. Okay. Threw into a van drove away. Nordstrom. This happened last week. Two thieves, man, and a wife. woman, stole $4,000, okay, in Nordstrom's in Irvine, that's south of L.A. No arrest, no, for the robberies. No arrest. Okay, can't find them. Nobody knows. There's a getaway car in Irvine. He can't find them. Anybody looking out there? Anybody? So, I got a letter, said, O'Reilly, we like the No Spin News. We like, like your news operation, we trust it, anybody else doing what you do, all right, independent
Starting point is 00:07:55 and covering the news in an honest way. And there are, not many, but one of them is bernard Goldberg.com. And you know, Goldberg and I have known each other for centuries. I mean, and we would go back to the Mongol Empire. But I go to bernardgolberg.com. And, you know, I go And Goldberg puts out commentary, as I do, and I read it, and it's usually measured. Sometimes, you know, it's loopy, but most of the time it isn't. And what caught my eye was that Goldberg, who we usually use on media stuff, is very outraged about this flash mob business. So I wanted to bring him on.
Starting point is 00:08:39 He joins us now from North Carolina. Did I introduce you properly? you did and thank you for that but I am outraged I'm outraged like millions and millions of people out there are outraged look we survived a great depression we survived two world wars we survived 9-11 thugs who go into stores and take whatever they want they're not going to bring us down but but society as we know it is beginning to unravel. As you know, Bill, great civilizations
Starting point is 00:09:19 in history no longer exist and our society is beginning to fall apart for all the reasons you just mentioned. When you could walk into a store steal whatever you want
Starting point is 00:09:33 and there have been thieves since the beginning of history but when you could steal whatever you want no police to arrest you no progressive DA who's interested in prosecuting you. So there's no jury to convict you. No judge to sentence you. No prison to put you in.
Starting point is 00:09:52 No freaking nothing. No consequence at all. That's how societies begin to unravel. And if we don't find the courage, we don't find the courage or the leaders with courage to put an end to this real soon, this is going to unravel even more, and we won't recognize, as bad as it is now, we won't recognize the America that we live in.
Starting point is 00:10:19 There's no doubt it's going to get worse before it gets better, but it's the fault of the people when you really strip it out. So last November here in New York, we had a gubernatorial election between an unbelievably weak leader, Kathy Hockel, who's the governor, and Lee Zeldin, a conservative Republican who promised reform and to crack down on crime. Hokel won. Hogle beat Zelda. So that indicates that as bad as public disorder is in New York City, and it is bad.
Starting point is 00:10:55 The voters in New York, they don't care, Bernie, whether it's unraveling before their eyes or not, because the majority voted for Hokel. You're right. And here's proof that I'm a bad person. they elected these idiots they have to live with these idiots not my problem but let me say this about the looting issue because liberals look the other way about looting about looting about street crime about the mess on our southern border which you listed as I think the second issue Americans are most interested in it but let's just play pretend for a second you're not going
Starting point is 00:11:35 to see this, by the way, looting videos on CNN or MSNBC, because as I say, liberals don't like to talk about this. But let's just pretend that the looting wasn't going on in Chicago, but in South Dakota or North Dakota or Montana or Idaho, and the looters were all wearing big red MAGA hats. Oh, liberals would suddenly be very interested in looting and street crime. and people throwing each other on subway tracks in New York City and things like that. They're only interested when it isn't people that they're afraid to point out that are looting. I'm being vague, but you know what I'm talking about. Well, African Americans, everybody is listening.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Everybody knows that African American young males commit proportionally the majority of crimes in this country. But African-American innocent people are far and away the victims of the crimes. Exactly. So the liberals want to help minorities, but they really don't want to help minorities. Look, and as you have correctly said, I saw you saying this, and I nodded my head in agreement. Some progressives say, well, they're poor. You know, they're depraved because they're deprived. They're poor people.
Starting point is 00:13:00 But most poor people are decent American. Most poor people are decent, hard-working Americans, and it's, there's no limit to white liberal guilt. There's no limit to that. And that's why they look the other way when people are looting in Chicago or St. Louis or even California. They look the other way because they know who basically who's doing the looting. Shelby Steele, the black intellectual from California, very bright guy. called it good racial manners. These liberals and progressives are showing their good racial matters.
Starting point is 00:13:43 They're saying, no, no, we're the good ones. We're not racist like, you know, O'Reilly and Goldberg, you know, we're the good ones. And what's going on is precisely what you said. People are being victimized in poor neighborhoods. Poor people don't like this. I would even say most Democrats, most mainstream Democrats, don't like what's going on, but until they join people like you and me and the people watching us and say we've had enough of this, we can't watch America continue to unravel
Starting point is 00:14:16 because there's going to come a time when it unravels and it's too late to do anything about. Yeah, it's too late to bring it to bring it back together again. But I'll submit to you that in Chicago, the worst for minority victims, because most of the crime in Chicago was centered in the black ghetto neighborhoods south of the city. They elected an even more liberal mayor than Lori Lightfoot. So you know they're being, go ahead. If you look at the voting, who voted for who in that? Yes, black people voted for the black mayor Brandon Johnson over a white candidate who was tough.
Starting point is 00:15:00 He said he was stuffed around crime. But it's the higher-end, higher-income progressives in Chicago and in New York who elected Brad. Adams. And Brad. No, no, Brad. It's these high-end liberal, I'll call them elites, who think they're doing black people a favor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:28 I don't know how they can think that. You've got little kids. No, you got little kids being... You've got little kids being done. You got a 60-year-old black woman on a subway track being beaten with her own cane. Right, right. Look, these people who you're talking about, these elite Upper West Side Manhattan people, they're despicable people, by the way.
Starting point is 00:15:50 They are. And, I mean, they're not good intentioned. They're haters. They hate me. They hate you. They hate Trump. to hate anybody in the conservative Republican side. But they know what's happening.
Starting point is 00:16:03 They don't care, Bernie. They don't care. So they can cloak it under a nobility or virtue seeking. But everybody knows that a 60-year-old woman being beaten almost to death on a subway track, and the cops let the guy go. Did you know that? Cops let the guy go. They had him and they let him go.
Starting point is 00:16:22 No, I didn't know that. Yeah. And he had a rap sheet, a violent rap sheet. and they let him go. Now, because the New York Post, which is the only vehicle in New York that covers local news responsibly,
Starting point is 00:16:36 because they put it on a front page, now the internal affairs looking at the cops. I don't, you know, I'm not trying to come down on the cops here. The cops know if they make an arrest that of a minority, they got to defend that arrest all day long
Starting point is 00:16:49 and they could get in trouble, so look in the other way as an option. But let's get back to the big picture, disorder. When the voting block African Americans continue to vote for the progressive people, whether they're black or white, it doesn't matter. They continue to cast that ballot. They're voting against their own interest. And that is the truth. Last word. It is the truth, but not but. And they also have the support of those high-end white people, high-end economic white people on the lake front of Chicago
Starting point is 00:17:28 and the upper west side of Manhattan who are, again, showing what Shelby Steel calls their good racial matters. You say they're horrible people. They're not looking out for black people. You know what they're doing? They're looking out for themselves. That's right.
Starting point is 00:17:45 They're saying, look at me. Look how good I am. Look how good I am. I voted for the Chicago Tribune, the New York Times, and impose, all three of those cities are public disorder unlimited, yet all three of those papers, okay, applaud the progressive movement. And they're not what they used to be, and people don't really listen to them anymore. But it's just, it's disgraceful. And I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I mean, all we can do is present the truth, which we do. But if the poor minority community in America doesn't wake up. This is going to continue and nobody's going to stop it. And that's the truth. Bernardgoldberg.com. I recommend it. Go in there, cruise around, you know, make fun of Bernie. He's got a little place where you can make fun of him. That's my favorite part of your website, make it fun of you. And we appreciate you coming on. We'll talk soon, okay? Thanks a lot, Bill. All right. So Americans are fleeing the places that are most disordered. Here, Allied van lines, the moving people, are the top outbound states last year, 22. Illinois, number one, at Chicago, California, New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 00:19:06 Okay, those are the five states where people are moving out. Here are the five cities they're moving out. New York City, number one, getting out of there, Anaheim, California, San Diego, California. Both of those places are not progressive. but they're liberal, Chicago, Riverside, California, which is a suburb of L.A. Here are the top inbound states where people are moving. One Arizona, two South Carolina, three North Carolina, four Tennessee, five Texas. All red states.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Here are the top cities. Tucson on the border. Sarasota, Florida, Charlotte, North Carolina, Austin, Texas, Nashville, Tennessee. Out of all of those, Austin, Tennessee is progressive. Austin, Texas is progressive, so Tennessee. So you see what's happening here. 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. 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 of the mainstream media,

Starting point is 00:21:13 you get your podcast. You don't want to be. miss an episode. President Biden. You know, I don't hate him. I don't. But he is harming this country. So the only thing that today was make some remarks written for him about maritime stuff. Nobody cares. So all Biden did was come in late. They handed him a script, It's on a teleprompter. He read it, and then he went wherever he goes. Jill has COVID, so she's in Delaware. I don't know what he does.
Starting point is 00:21:53 He has to take a nap all day? I don't know what he does. Okay, but he doesn't have anything on his schedule. We do it every day, nothing. This is your president. Okay, there's a new, Biden's trying to, he knows he's in trouble. Everybody knows Biden's in trouble. Okay, low approval rating, country's going to the wrong direction.
Starting point is 00:22:13 He's got nothing. going, except that he disorts things. So the NFL season begins tomorrow night, TV. The Biden people are going to take advertising, a lot of it, millions and millions of dollars out, try to convince people, $25 million ad campaign to convince you, or the NFL watcher, okay, that Biden's doing a good job. Here is an ad we believe is going to be run. or something close to it. Go. They said millions would lose their jobs
Starting point is 00:22:49 and the economy would collapse. But this president refused to let that happen. Instead, he got to work, fixing supply chains, fighting corporate greed, passing laws to lower the cost of medicine, cut utility bills, and make us more energy independent.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Today, inflation is down to 3% unemployment, the lowest in decades. There's more to do, but President Biden is getting results that matter. I'm Joe Biden, and I approve this message. Okay, so inflation is 6%, not 3%. And that's key stat about the economy is this. Very simple.
Starting point is 00:23:27 You know, I'm a simple man. I said this to Sean Hannity today on the radio, and that's posted on bill o'Reilly.com. Simple man, here's the only economic stat you need because all the economic others are going to be distorted, not just by the Democrats, Republicans have to distort them too. This is the only one you need. Okay, real wages, that's spending power for people who work for a living in America.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Under Biden, they're down 5%. Under Trump, they were up 9%. There's real wages, okay, taken into account COVID, all of that, okay, 14% swing. That means you have 14% less to... live your life. That's it. That's all. Simple man, keeping it simple.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Federal deficit. Now, I know. Your eyes glaze over. Nobody cares about the deficit. I got it. I got it. I got it. I got it.
Starting point is 00:24:30 But it's my job to bring you the true story. So the deficit every year is what the government has to borrow to cover spending. Right now, the government has to borrow. zero, 1.6 trillion as of today. That'll go up to two trillion when the federal fiscal year ends in October. So we're two trillion in the whole. This year, under Biden. Okay, that's added to the debt, which is now about, what, 34, 35 trillion? And people go, ah, it doesn't matter, it does, it will. So Biden's a massive spend. Massive. And these stats come from fiscal data.treshery.gov, right?
Starting point is 00:25:21 Next year, the debt's going to be, the deficit's going to be even higher because Biden is spending so much money to buy votes. One of the reasons that the minority community supports the progressives is that they get entitlements from them. So I guess it's worth having their neighbors shot dead in the street for the increased food. stamp allotment. That's the calculation. Okay. Corinne Jean-Pierre. Look, her job is to be a propagandist. Everybody knows it. Republicans are the same way. Okay? So she's asked about the deficit. Go. The president has a real plan as we've laid out multiple times to reduce the deficit and we don't see Republicans having a real plan. And so the
Starting point is 00:26:12 deficit has fallen by more than $1 trillion under the president. That's not true. She took the COVID deficit when the government was spending massive amounts of money for vaccines and to send checks to people who couldn't work. That's the baseline. So, of course, the deficit under COVID exploded. And she goes, well, he's cut the deficit by a million. No, the deficit is going up this year and next.
Starting point is 00:26:42 See the propaganda thing here? And she doesn't say, I don't know if the woman even knows. I've never seen a woman in an interview where the interviewer challenged her in a meaningful way. She doesn't do that. Okay, I'd love to sit down with her. Wouldn't you like to say that? All right, Trump. New poll, CNN, 1,500 respondents, 32 Democrat, 32 Republican, 35 independent.
Starting point is 00:27:12 fair poll. Question, which of these statements comes closest to your view about the criminal charges against Donald Trump? Trump is facing so many criminal charges largely as a result of his own actions. All right, this is for Republicans only. Only Republicans could answer this question. 14%. Trump is facing so many criminal charges as a result of political abuse of the justice system. Sixty-one percent. It's hard to say 25 percent. So you, you're going to say, you know, you've got an 86% Republican plurality not blaming Trump for the charges that have been lodged against him. That pretty much solidifies his nomination on the Republican side.
Starting point is 00:28:00 So I'm not going to predict it now because other things could happen. But if the convention were tomorrow, it would be Trump by a landslide on the Republican side. side. Proud boys. So this is a radical right-wing group. It's leader Enrique Tarrio, 39 years old, Miami, Florida. Sentenced to 22 years in federal prison. He was convicted on six counts of seditious conspiracy. All right, the prosecutors were able to show that Tarrio said he wanted a spectacle on January 6th, and he celebrated the attack on. on the Capitol, after it happened, giving the Proud Boys credit for the riot. That's what the jury convicted to Rio, Tario on.
Starting point is 00:28:54 He will have to serve about 18 and a half years. He don't get early parole on a federal system. Now, a lot of people think that's too much. Prosecutor wanted 33 years. I say this. I'm not going to second-guess the jury here because I wasn't in the courtroom. be unfair of me to second-guess the jury. You cannot have people, groups, whatever, with influence, with access to the Internet, as the proud boys had,
Starting point is 00:29:28 fostering rebellion against the federal government or the state government. That's sedition. So this is a message. All right? It's a message. There have been 1,000 federal prosecutions against rioters. Now, again, Enrique Tariot was not there, but there was enough evidence convinced to the jury that he was fostering this, encouraging this, and was glad it happened. Okay, smart life.
Starting point is 00:30:05 Fascinating story. So if you are a concierge member to Bill O'Reilly.com, you are anonymous for everybody except me. Okay? So nobody knows what you write to me, and you can write to me directly. So we have a woman in Florida who has cancer, all right? She's in bad shape. And she submitted a claim for about a thousand. $1,000 to an outfit called CHAMP VA, it's military insurance that she holds.
Starting point is 00:30:46 All right, she has breast cancer. And CHAMP VA won't pay the claim. And a woman says, I have the policy, I qualify for it, they won't pay. Okay. That's what concierge members do. so she asked me for help so we check out champ VA all right and they have a very poor rating um from customers 1.6 out of 5 that's big red flag right there problems at champ VA they are based in Denver Colorado they are associated with the veterans administration it's an insurance outfit
Starting point is 00:31:33 okay but the complaints are incompetence rude staff whatever the woman we asked her send me the names of who you're dealing with at champ VA okay so she sends them to me to me but she only has first names doesn't have last names makes my job almost impossible. I don't know who's turning her down. I don't know who's being rude to her. I don't know who Tammy is or Lenny. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:16 You have to get the full names of people you're speaking to about any kind of financial irregularity. You have to. She didn't. So we go right to the top. Champ VA, Denver, Colorado. We can't get anybody on the phone. Nobody.
Starting point is 00:32:37 We're going to continue to try to get the woman, what she is entitled to. But if I had names, then I could go in harder. But I don't. Because most people don't understand how to deal with people on the telephone. First thing you do is ask for the person's name.
Starting point is 00:33:05 If that person refuses to give you their last name, you don't do business with them. You don't do business with them. Now here, it's a little bit more difficult because the people running Champ VA, again in Denver, and a woman lives in Florida. Okay. We can't get them. All right. We can't even get the name of the person. They have a post office box.
Starting point is 00:33:29 469063, Denver, Colorado. This is just off the chart, awful. But the poor woman, the concierge member, didn't know that when she signed on with them. She didn't look at the customer reviews. So the reason I'm telling you all is, there's two reasons. Number one, if you are going to buy anything, you've got to know who you're dealing with.
Starting point is 00:33:59 You've got to have names, got to have contracts, all of that. And number two, if you are a concierge member and you should be, and you run into trouble, okay, I can help you most of the time, but not unless I have all the information. Okay? Now, we're not going to give up on this. We're going to try to get the woman the money. Perhaps this exposition now will spur this. If I have to, I'll go to the head of the VA, and so what the deuce is happening.
Starting point is 00:34:28 If she lived in Colorado, this woman, and remember, she lives in Florida, she could file a claim against this Champ VA, a lawsuit, small claims court or with the state of Colorado. But because she's in Florida, she could still do it, but very complicated. Okay. I feel terrible because, I mean, a woman is in bad shape and she needs help. All right. There is an organization called a Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, free speech organization. Did a study of 248 colleges to find out which universities and schools are the worst for free speech. Guess who's number one? My alma mater, Harvard. Number one, got a zero score on a hundred
Starting point is 00:35:28 point scale. Because they're persecuting at Harvard. Nine professors and researchers are punishing them for what they've said or written. Okay. And if you're a student at Harvard and you say anything that somebody doesn't like, you're in trouble. Here are the others. University of Pennsylvania, University of South Carolina, very surprised at the University of South Carolina. Wow. Georgetown. Not surprised there, that's Woke Central. Fordham University, where my daughter went. Very surprised.
Starting point is 00:36:05 Both Georgetown and Fordham are Jesuit-run schools, and the Jesuits got to wise up. Skidmore College, very liberal, upstate New York, Northwestern in Chicago, Duquesne of the Catholic school, Dartmouth. Surprise, Dartmouth. University of Texas, Austin, not surprised. Here are the best schools. Michigan Tech, Auburn. University of New Hampshire, Oregon State, Florida State, University of Virginia, Texas A&M, George Mason, University of North Carolina, Greensboro, University of Colorado Boulder. Wow. Boulder really liberal,
Starting point is 00:36:43 but they're on the best for free speech list. So I hope that helps if you're looking for colleges. This day in history, September 6th, 1620, the Mayflower takes off from Plymouth, England on the south coast, 102 passengers, most of them Puritans, okay? The king, James, was persecuting Puritans because they wouldn't join the Church, Henry the Ace Church, the Anglicans. So the Puritans said, we're getting out of here, going to the new world. Okay, 66-day journey, harrowing journey. They land. in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where they were supposed to land was Virginia. So they were a little off course. They get there in November, all right, and it's freezing. Half of them die.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Okay? But the other half survives thanks to the Native Americans. Now, I write about this voyage in the upcoming book, killing the witches. Okay? I put you on the Mayflower. You are on the ship, way do you see what happened on that ship, on that journey. It is absolutely incredible, and I don't use that word with any hyperbole. That may fly a bore. I went, when we were researching it, I went, whoa. And then the Puritans, remember, they weren't pilgrims until much, much later. They were branded pilgrims. They're there. and a bunch of them go up to Salem. Okay?
Starting point is 00:38:33 And that's what killing the witch is. You know, we start with the Mayflower. We actually start in Scotland where they're executing a witch. Then we go to the Mayflower. Then we go up to Salem. Because the Plymouth people were so crazy, the leadership there,
Starting point is 00:38:49 that a lot of the people either went to Providence, okay, Roger Williams, or they went to Salem up northern Massachusetts. But when they got to Salem, them, all hell, pardon a pun, broke loose. So this is the basis of killing the witches. And then we go into Benjamin Franklin and then modern day witch hunting, closes the book. That book will be out, killing the witches. Let me see to cover again, please, on September 26, 26, three weeks, less than three weeks, order on bill o'Reilly.com, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bix de Minio,
Starting point is 00:39:25 all of that. It's going to be a big bestseller. If you re-up or sign up for concierge of premium membership, get the book free. Okay, I got a good final thought about my conversation last night with a Democrat friend of mine. You're going to want to stay tuned for that back in a moment. All right, let's get to the mail before you get to the final thought. Doug Snyder, Hendersonville, Tennessee. Bill, keep mentioning that Michelle Obama is the only one who could win the Democratic presidential race if she wanted to. How is that even possible?
Starting point is 00:39:57 there's no way she's qualified. Well, eight years first lady, I mean, Donald Trump, didn't have any political experience, right? So, qualification's not going to be a problem
Starting point is 00:40:09 if Michelle Obama decides to get in. Sue Perkins, Denham Springs, Louisiana, Mr. O'Reilly is a citizen and frustrated voter. Please help me understand how, as citizens, we can stop this corrupt White House Department of Justice.
Starting point is 00:40:23 I vote as much as I can, but this McCarthyistic system is so dangerous to our freedoms. Voting is the only way. I mean, you can get involved locally in Louisiana politics, do that. But our system set up every two years for the House, every four years president, every six year for the Senate, you cast the votes, and same thing in your states. You got to get rid of these people, these progressives. Got to go, that's it.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Randall, concierge member, term limits will happen at the same time a balanced budget happens, which will be when hell freezes over. All Democrats are 9% of Republicans never stray from the party line. It's true. I don't think term limits are going to happen. They don't want to give up their power on Capitol Hill. Bruce Rizzo, Bruce forgot his town. Name in town, name and town, name in town if you wish to opine.
Starting point is 00:41:17 But I'm going to use Bruce's letter because it's a good letter. Sir, that's me. Is it not true that a parent is legally responsible for minor children if they break the rules or damage property? Don't parents have the responsibility to protect and raise their children to adulthood? How can they effectively do that if a school insists on keeping them uninformed? They can't. Absolutely right. Parenthood rights, the progressives want to cripple parental rights.
Starting point is 00:41:46 They want the state to raise the kid. Takes a village, right, Hillary? Margo Freer, Medford, Oregon, absolutely right about having friends, Bill. I'm 82 years young, still keep in touch with three high school chums. Also have weekly, monthly lunches with friends, and it has worked out very well for me. Okay, Margo, you keep going. I have friends from four and five years old. Guy used to run Bill O'Reilly.com, I went to first grade with him.
Starting point is 00:42:20 get a good job okay we got uh fall madness so you can get uh killing the legends killing the killers and any mug of your choice a bundle for 4295 i mean that's a great deal so fall madness is here and then um word of the day do not be a cox comb C-O-X C-O-M-B love that back with final thought all right here's the final thought of the day. So I'm out to dinner last night with a couple of friends. One of them is a Democrat, not a loon. Okay, not a loon at all. And we're discussing the Democratic Party. And he, I said, are you going to leave it? Oh, no, I'm going to stay. I said, all right, but you know that the Democratic Party's not what it used to be.
Starting point is 00:43:15 it's run by progressives the money to generate political activity all comes from sorrows from Hollywood all of that and the progressives control Joe Biden they control the agenda if you're a moderate you don't have any say at all you must know that didn't push back didn't because he's smart and he knows however loyalty to party Trump's pardon upon, and I think that if Biden ran against Trump, this guy would vote of Biden. He knows, but he's loyal. I don't hold it against him.
Starting point is 00:43:58 So, America, I respect, sincerely he'll vote. A lot of people are loyal to their party, whether a Republican or Democrat, they're loyal. But to me, I'm a registered independent. I want a problem solver. I want honest people in there. And as I said yesterday, it's going to be a rough autumn for Joe Biden. and you stay here and tell your friends bill o'reilly.com it's easy so far and away the best news analysis program in this country and you know it okay so thank you for watching and listening
