Hey Bill O'Reilly here.
Welcome to the No Spin News for January 25th,
2020, stand up for your country.
So this is a very unusual broadcast tonight
because we are going to bring you a number of stories
you haven't heard about, but you should have heard about them.
They're important to you.
But the corporate media is so corrupt and lazy.
Lazy is getting to be big.
And I got a final thought on it that I think you're going to enjoy.
Journalists are lazy now, and I'll tell you why.
Anyway, it's a busy news day, and there is an unsavory situation in Philadelphia.
And I'm almost, if you've heard about this, Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, please tell me where.
because I'm almost positive. Nobody's heard about this, and that's the subject of this evening's
talking points memo. So most people in Philadelphia area get ready for the big playoff game on
Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. However, on Tuesday evening, the Union League of Philadelphia
bestowed its gold medal, highest honor on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. That was a couple of days,
Yesterday. Yesterday, okay? DeSantis flew up from Florida to get the medal. Now, what is the
Union League? Well, it's a private club who's found in 1862 as a patriotic society to support
the policies of Abraham Lincoln. So obviously, it's been around a long time, 1862. It's got more
than 4,000 members. Previous gold medals went to James Mattis, the former Secretary of Defense,
George W. Bush, Bush the Younger, and Bush the Elder.
So it's a legitimate organization.
Obviously, Leans Republican.
But when DeSantis was named the honoree,
immediately the far-left cranks, the loons in Philadelphia,
went wild.
Roll the tape.
Why you are promoting this individual who, in their philosophy,
in their philosophy sees so many people, black and brown folks,
LGBT and the rest folks, see them as second-class citizens.
This is a disgrace.
It is wrong.
It is a smack in the face to people of this city.
Now, this is really interesting.
So personal attacks on dissent by the far left cranks in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia. Philadelphia is a far-left town. It's like New York City. Okay, 44% black crime rate
through the route, but they elect very, very progressive individuals to run the city, and that's
why the city's a mess. And it is a mess. Everybody living in Philadelphia knows it's a mess.
So the Sanders has done a pretty good job in Florida, comes in, and these people right away are
accusing of being a racist and a homophobic and everything else. This is a very important. This is a
is a strategy now. This is an in-stone strategy. It wouldn't matter whether it would be DeSantis
or any other high-profile Republican. These cranks would label those people bigots.
Okay? That's what they're going to do from now on. Why? Because nobody calls them out.
all right so they use the race card and the homophobic carb and all of that to diminish people
on the republican side or the conservative side they do that primarily to keep the african-american
voting block solid so it won't start to defect like the Hispanic american voting block
many are defecting to the republican party so the race thing is used primarily to
keep blacks in line by the progressive movement. It's really despicable, but there was some exposure,
some criticism on the local news in Philadelphia, and I was happy to see this against that,
really. Whenever you're trying to come up with something, they always attack you as a racist
person as a person who does not believe in the minority rights it's insane and it's dangerous okay
it conjures up hatred so dissent is wants to be president we all know that he's gathering money
he's visiting other states um he wants to be the republican nominee and it'll be interesting
to see how that plays out against trump so right away the progressive thing is
He's a bigot. He's a racist. Of course, Trump is a racist. O'Reilly is a racist. They did that to me
when I was working Fox News. Every day I'd be a racist. If I would even give stats and mention that
African Americans are responsible for most of the murders in the USA on a proportionate basis,
a percentage basis, then I'm a racist. Just for giving you honest information.
Anybody, anybody that the far left doesn't like is a racist.
And it's unchallenged.
Nobody isn't challenging it saying, hey, this is horrible.
It's un-American.
It's an insult not only to the country but to the voters themselves.
All right.
They don't know DeSantis.
These people never met DeSantis.
And again, Florida runs pretty well.
Look, Florida runs a lot better in Pennsylvania.
Okay.
It does.
as a state. Anyway, I wanted to bring you that story. Congratulations to Governor DeSantis for
the award that he got. That's the memo. Okay, President Biden, who is absolutely fine with all
this racist stuff. Absolutely. Loves it. Does it himself. And the Martin Luther King's speech in
Atlanta, that was horrible, what he did. All right, so he has nothing on his schedule. I mean,
we do this every day. I don't want to be repetitive and boring, but he's got enough. He had lunch
with Kamala. Okay, I hope it was delightful. Now, I'm supposed to talk about Biden tonight on
News Nation on the Cuomo program at 8 o'clock. I haven't gotten confirmation. That's the
subject, but it was talked about earlier this week that I would run down Biden, put him in
historical context. So I hope that's still going to happen. Again, News Nation, 8 o'clock. You should
get it. It's widely distributed. And they tweet when Cuomo and I are debating, the Twitter thing
goes crazy, I understand. So it's an interesting thing. Between about 8.15, I usually hit maybe a
little earlier. That's what I'm on. All right, Lindsay Graham, you know, people like them, they don't
like him, whatever. I think he's okay. But he has a good take on this document thing.
Now, the document thing's totally out of control, and I'll address it. But it's such a big
non-story. I mean, the FBI raid wasn't a non-story. That was an abuse of power on Maelago.
That was horrible. But now with Pence saying, well, I just found this. And then Biden,
Every day, we got new Biden stuff, and then Trump, you know.
Here's what Graham says.
I don't believe there were sinister motives with regards to the handling of classified information by President Biden, President Trump, or Vice President Pence.
We have a classified information problem that needs to be fixed, unquote.
So I agree.
I don't see that there were sinister motives here.
I don't believe that, look, Trump would never read documents in his, never, you know, they packed them up, they shipped them down in Florida.
Biden never in a million years would read documents, ever, okay?
And Pence is so buttoned down, he would read them, Pence, but he's such a straight guy that if he knew somebody packed up classified documents, he would have said no.
No. All right. Now, look, the hysteria surrounding this has gotten completely out of control because the corporate media don't know what to do. It's January and all of that's, you know, not a lot of big news stories except for mass shootings and weather. And so it's the same old stuff. So I'm going to deal with it in final thought. I'm going to tell you what the underpinnings of this is.
is. All right, Texas and 19 other states are suing the Biden administration over migrant parole
program. You know what that is? I didn't, I have to be refreshed on that. That's the program that
allows people from Haiti, Nicaragua, Cuba, and Venezuela to come to the USA every month. 30,000
of them, I guess it's divided among the four countries. They just get visas to come here.
All right, so the states, the states that are suing the Biden administration say, hey, you can't do that.
It's Congress that does the immigration law, not you, the federal government, the executive branch.
You can't do it.
So the states are all Republican states, Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nebraska, Nebraska, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee.
Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming. Not one Democrat state on this because they don't
care about what the Constitution says. And certainly they don't want to limit migrants from
coming here. The left wing, the Democratic Party, doesn't want to do it. Anyway, I'd be interesting
to see where this goes, this lawsuit. I'm glad it was filed. I want to get some clarification.
Probably go to the Supreme Court, but I think that they'll block it first. Federal judges
will block the 30,000 from coming here in February.
that's the next round. I think that'll happen. Mexico. So I told you it's the most dangerous
country on earth and it's doing tremendous damage to the United States right now much more
damage than China or Russia are doing to us. Mexico is the worst. So you know it's out of control
crime. Sixty-six thousand in 2021, dead or missing. Sixty-six thousand. In the USA, triple the population,
23,000. Anyway, Jose Gutierrez, Ohio, architect, and his fiancé Daniela Pichardo went missing
Christmas Eve, and they just found them yesterday. All shot up. They're dead. All right.
So the U.S. State Department says a place where they were, Zocatakis, Mexico is a no-travel zone
because of the cartel, but the whole country of Mexico is a no travel zone, in my opinion.
I will never go there.
And if you go there, don't go off the hotel property.
I mean, it is particularly in a place like Acapulco, where the whole town is owned by the cartel.
And you've got Cancun problems, too, although Cancun, the town is separate from the resorts.
But if you think you're going to ride around Mexico in a rental car, you're out of your
bleeding mind okay that is a dangerous dangerous place now uh california public defender orange
county south of l a elli elliott blair he's dead all right he went down to bahar rosarito beach
and he's dead and his family says he was killed but the mexican attorney general says he
was drunk and he fell off a balcony his body's still in mexico all right and this happened uh what a
A week ago, January 14th.
So that's 11 days ago.
Can't get his body out of there?
Why?
Because they're sanitizing the body.
If there's foul play signs, they're getting them out of there.
That's why.

Awful.
State of Connecticut is considering legislation that would legalize voting for undocumented immigrants.
So if you sneak into the country illegally and you wind up in Connecticut, then you can vote on everything.
Local, state, everything.
Can't vote in presidential, but of course, they would.
and there are an estimated 250,000 undocumented in Connecticut.
This will not pass.
I can't imagine the governor signing it in Connecticut
or even the legislation passing it.
But we'll track it for you.
But this is a far-left cook, you know,
who introduced that in the legislation.
Ukraine.
So they're going to get 31 Abrams tanks from the USA
and Germany folded.
They're going to give Ukraine.
Ukraine, leopard tanks, 14 of them. Now, tanks in Ukraine in that theater, they're used mostly
defensively, but they can, obviously, push Russian infantry back. And this is a big win for
Ukraine. So I was on Hannity today. Hannity is a little skeptical about this. We had a difference
of opinion. I'm foreign. And I explained that, look, this is a downgrade of Putin. It's all
about Putin. Given the tanks of Ukraine, it's not about Ukraine, okay, for the USA. It's about
getting Putin out. And he's right here. So that's why we're doing this. So it's a very
interesting debate that Hannity and I had on his radio program. We have it posted on
bill o'Reilly.com. And, you know, it's extensive. So we disagree on, you know, I want Putin out
And I know, I know that's what all of this is about.
Putin, get him out.
Here's what Biden said.
The United States has worked in lockstep with our allies and partners around the world
to make sure the Ukrainian people are in the strongest possible position to defend their nation, their families,
and against the truly brutal aggression of Russia.
Okay, each tank, Abrams tank costs $9 million.
dollars. Okay, so you can do the math. That's almost 300 million. Again, on top of everything
else we sent over to Ukraine, there's a lot of money. But if we can get Putin out of there,
it's worth it. All right, the doomsday clock. You know what the doomsday clock is?
This is fascinating. All right. So in 1945, after the atomic bomb was developed,
Albert Einstein, Robert Oppenheimer, and other scientists who worked on a Manhattan project,
Adam Baum, and all this is in killing the rising sun, they started the doomsday clock,
all right, where this is how long the earth has to exist before man destroys it.
So, tithets have moved the doomsday clock forward because of Ukraine, Putin and nukes,
to 90 seconds to midnight.
Whoa, that's close.
The most it's ever been away from midnight,
it's 17 minutes following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 91.
But now it's 90 seconds, because crazy Putin,
he could do anything, right?
I don't believe that the Russian military would allow him to use nukes,
but that's just my opinion.
All right, media, Washington Post, NBC News, two very progressive news agencies, both laying people off.
About 50 positions are being closed up in the Washington Post newsroom.
That's a lot.
That's a lot.
Two dozen people fired, the others not being filled.
NBC News laid off 75 people this month.
as a lot. Now, the reason is that half the country, maybe more, don't trust the Washington Post and
NBC News. NBC News is killing itself with MSNBC. I mean, Fox is a separate entity of its own,
of its own. But NBC's got a lot of different properties, the Today Show, the Tonight Show,
Saturday Night Live, all of that.
NBC has gone so far left that conservatives don't want to watch it, any of it, any of it.
And that's why NBC News is getting hammered.
It's no longer number one nightly newscast, ABC beats it, and it's declining because more than
a half the country says, I'm going to watch that.
It's not fair.
It pushes progressive stuff, exactly what's happening.
these people are never going to learn cnn is now almost off the chart people don't watch cnn
it's almost off the chart okay mike pompeo former secretary of state will be here one week
he's got a new book out uh it's called never given inch fighting for the america i love
um it's got a whole bunch of controversial stuff we're going to have a very good uh q and a with uh
mr pompeo anyway he named some journalists
who he believes are not, I don't know.
I don't want to use the word honest, but hurting the country.
All right, number one, Chris Wallace.
So Secretary Pompeo said Wallace often tried to drive a wedge between him and Trump.
All right.
So when Pompeo went on Fox News Sunday, that's what Wallace tried to do.
Andrea Mitchell, now she's on MSNBC and she's a FAR.
far, far left.
Pompeo said she tried to bait him to criticize Trump, Bob Woodward.
Now, I have my problems with Woodward because he made a tremendous amount of money just
hammering Trump.
You know, I've always had a pretty respectful relationship with Bob, but what he did
to Trump for money, I just didn't respect it.
And Pompeo backs it up.
He said, I did my best to comply with Donald Trump's direction that I talked to Woodward.
You know, Trump called Pompeii and said, talk to the guy.
I can't understand, and I did ask Trump this in the history shows.
Why would you do talk to Woodward?
He's going to hatchet you.
Okay, that's what he's getting paid to do.
When you sign a book contract, you have to tell the publisher what's going to be in the book.
And it can't be Trump's good.
The publisher doesn't want that.
So anyway, Pompeo talked to Woodward for 15 minutes, Pompeo says, and he gave nothing.
Jim Acosta, we all know him, Bill Crystal, you know, these are people who hate Trump, and Pompeo says, were very unfair.
Finally, Christian Amunpur, always progressive, always on the left-wing side of the issue.
so I thought you'd find that amusing.
All of those people are named in his book.
Again, Pompeo will be here one week from today.
So I'm going over the internet sites, new sites this morning, as I usually do, and I see something from A&W root beer.
Now, I don't drink soda anymore, but at one time I really liked root beer.
and I drank A&W.
So they have a bear, Rudy the Bear, that's their advertising person.
So I see a report on the Internet that says they're going to put pants on Rudy the Bear.
And I just rolled my eyes.
I believe the report.
I believed it.
Now, if I can be suckered, you can imagine what everybody else.
So my producer is smarter than me, and she says, I don't know about it.
It turns out it was a joke, that A&W is shrewd enough, put that out, knowing the Internet just publish it, okay?
Get all the publicity free and get people riled.
Now, I wasn't riled up.
I just go, bears don't wear pants.
But bears don't wear shirts either, and Rudy has a shirt.
So anyway, it was a fake, but I'm sure.
people got riled. Now, this comes off the M&M's thing, which I totally ignored because I know what
this is. This is a fabricated story that means nothing but gets Mars chocolates, big publicity.
So the M&M's thing was that they're getting doing away with all these polarizing M&Ms advertising
mascots, who I don't care about at all. I don't eat M&Ms because it's too much shirt.
burger, but what's wrong with them? I don't know.
Are they going to put somebody in heels? I forget it. I knew it was bogus.
But do you know, it's publicity M&M's got from this?
So they got a new ad going on in the Super Bowl, and I think it's not with them.
They got it. They hired, what's her name? The Saturday Night Live woman, tell me am I here where her name is.
She's very funny.
Maya Rudolph. Very funny.
I think the most, of all the females, I don't know.
There are a couple of really good ones.
But Amaya is the new spokesperson for M&Ms.
Now, all of this commercial stuff and politically correct stuff
generates publicity for the product.
But you can get hurt going into this political arena.
So joining us now from Montgomery, Alabama,
is Dr. Allen Mendenhall.
He's associate dean of the Sorrell College of Business at Troy University, and, you know, he knows this world.
So if you were a CEO of any major corporation, how would you handle, you know, the social media trumped up controversies?
You stay away, you embrace it like A&W root beer.
What do you do?
Well, I think actually one of the big problems is that these boards of directs,
directors are getting pressure from asset management firms and other institutional investors
that are actually pushing corporations to the left. And a lot of CEOs are just at companies
for a short amount of time. So say you know you're just going in there for four or five years
and you're going to be out looking for the next thing. Well, you can make all kinds of decisions
that actually aren't that profitable for your company. In fact, the entire shift from shareholder
primacy to the stakeholder model is predicated on this idea that shareholders,
maximizing profits for shareholders is an old-fashioned way of doing business and that we need
to redefine business to account for the interest of all kinds of stakeholders.
Well, stakeholders is a vague term that can be defined in any way.
So a CEO could come in and say, look, we need to do X, Y, and Z because all these
stakeholders may be affected by climate change or some sort of environmental issue.
And then you can institute policies and procedures that may make yourself more palatable to the media that may make your company look suitably leftist.
But that's what happened at Disney, right? That's what Disney did.
Oh, it's happened so many times. And in fact, the most recent.
That's the poster boy for a lesson at Troy University. I mean, you got Disney, which markets to every American who has children.
and then all of a sudden it's pushing a very controversial public school issue about indoctrinating
children into subjects they can't possibly understand. Disney says that's good. That's the don't say
gay thing. And in doing so, Disney harmed its brand beyond redemption, for at least in the short term,
and they got Chepik, the CEO, fired for doing it. But you would think that if Chabee,
was a good businessman. He would know just what you stated, Dean, that, hey, if you're going to
take a political stance, you're going to alienate somebody, right? That's exactly right.
And you'll find that you have to imagine this situation. Let's just say half of America is conservative
and half of America is on the political left or progressive. Well, you would know that waiting
into politics is going to alienate a certain number of people, a certain fraction of
the U.S. population. Well, why would any companies do this? Well, it's because we're starting to
have financial and institutional incentives that are trying to push companies to the left.
And my biggest example of that is just this ESG movement, the environmental, social, and
governance movement, which of course can mean two things. In one sense, it's just a framework
or strategy that individual corporations undertake internally. But more broadly, it is the non-financial
standards metrics and factors that asset management firms, financial institutions, and institutional
investors consider when they allocate capital or assess risk. Now, these factors are pushing
companies to the left. And you see institutional investors, the big three are Black Rock State Street
and Vanguard. They hold over 20% of the equity of S&P 500 companies. And now we have, you know,
Trading is very different.
You know, 100 years ago, buying stocks and things like that was just becoming widespread.
It was only in the 80s and 90s that we started having 401Ks and those types of things.
Now, institutional investors have gotten huge.
They hold around 80%.
So institutional investors that buy a lot of stock, okay?
Yes.
And their funds.
They are telling CEOs, hey, you better embrace climate change or we're not going to buy your stock?
Well, here's what happened just yesterday, Bill.
Just yesterday, Newsmax was yanked from DirecTV.
So AT&T owns roughly 70% of the shares of DirecTV.
But you have a small hedge fund that is an activist investor.
They're called activist investors.
And their job is to go out and buy as many shares in publicly traded companies as they can
and deliberately push these companies politically to the left.
By threats?
Is that how that?
they push him by threatening them?
By saying we're going to dump your
stock unless you
dump newsmax?
That's what's happening?
They have shareholder proposals that they issue.
They write reports.
They go to the media.
And they exercise their proxy voting power.
So all these thousands and thousands
of beneficiaries of these funds,
they're the intermediaries.
And then those people, you know,
there's actually a breach of fiduciary duty
that's going on.
And they're manipulating the markets.
They're manipulating the markets for political gain.
I mean, that should be an SEC concern, Securities and Exchange Commission.
In fact, you know, the SEC is actually because of this,
considering some proposed regulations that would force companies to disclose ESG factors.
But we know that right now, the way these investments are being done,
they violate federal case precedent,
they violate Delaware law where a lot of these companies are incorporated.
which places a huge emphasis on shareholder primacy.
And they violate the Employment Retirement Income Security Act,
ERISA, because a lot of this money that's being invested
comes from state pension money.
Well, it's got to be, they've got to litigate it then.
And I know this Newsmax thing is in Congress now.
We'll see how it goes.
Dean, very enlightening.
Thank you very much for helping us out.
We appreciate it.
Thanks, Bill.
Thanks for having me on.
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.
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, smart life. Task rabbit.
Okay, so if you like me and you can't do anything in the house, fix anything, I can't paint
because I painted during college, but I can't do anything else.
So you're looking around all the time for people who can help you when stuff goes south.
Task rabbit is the place.
Okay, so it's a website as app.
features, whatever that means. And you can sign up to become a tasker, 25 bucks. And then it's free
from then on, I guess, until you die. And they have in your area, you put your zip code in,
all right, people who will fix your stuff. Now, I like this on twofolds. It makes it easier
for you to call somebody up and say, hey, how much you're going to charge me to fix this?
The average is $35 an hour, so TaskRabbit is pretty up front about it, okay?
And if you can fix stuff, you can get on TaskRabbit in your area,
so people will know you can fix stuff if you need extra money.
Okay, so it's good for the consumer and for the fixer.
Task Rabbit, Smart Life.
Stay in history, January 25th, 1961, 62 years ago.
The first televised presidential press conference was held.
Roll the tape.
Third, I'm happy to be able to announce
that Captain Freeman B. Olmstead and Captain John R. McCone,
members of the crew of the United States Air Force RB-47 aircraft,
who have been detained by Soviet authorities since July 1st, 1960,
have been released by the Soviet government and are now on route to the United States.
The United States government is gratified by this decision of the Soviet Union.
Okay, so that started the president. Now, Kennedy did a lot of them. One every 16 days,
because he was good and the media liked him and he wasn't going to make. Biden, two years,
is at 22 news conferences. That's 11 a year. And I think that number is high. This comes from the
American presidency project. I think that's a high number. I think they're taking, you know,
when he's sitting there with the president of Morocco and he answers a couple of questions.
Because formal news conferences on Biden, I don't remember 22 of them. Okay. But anyway,
Biden doesn't do a lot of them. And Kennedy did. And the first one was 62 years ago today.
All right, good lively mail segment. And a final thought on this document thing that's got
everybody up and crazy about it. I'm going to try to put it in some kind of perspective right back.
Let's go to the mail, Charles, on the message board. If you sign up for concierger premium
membership on bill o'Reilly.com, we have message boards where you can talk to each other.
Because we have, you know, hundreds of thousands of people involved with us. And it's very,
It's a fun thing. And we do supervise it. No, no obscenities, no defamation. No, not a lot.
All right, so Charles is trying all gun crimes in federal court makes perfect sense.
Many local jurisdictions simply do not enforce the law and a lax of protecting public.
However, progressives in a White House of Congress will never permit such a reform.
True. You're going to have to have Democrats out and Republicans across the board to get that pass.
I don't even know if Republicans would do it. They had plenty of opportunity to pass.
they have not done. Al, on a message board, as long as left-leaning governors and mayors allow
the black drug gangs to operate, the drug wars resulting in mass shootings will continue.
That's true, but it's not just the black drug gangs. They allow cartels. They allow,
there's not a lot of white drug gangs in the urban situations, but they're in the rural areas
pushing methamphetamine. And they all get in away with it. Paul Cranley, the key
argument reduces to this question. Is the president damaging the country through ignorance or
with intent? If it's ignorance, why is he not surround himself with true experts, not woke
ideologues? Biden is not even at the level of being able to select anybody to advise him.
He's not even there. I mean, Jill Biden might be, but he's not. Tom, concierge member,
means Tom gets direct access to me in a private email situation.
Anything concierge members tell me stays with me.
It's like Vegas, but it really does.
Totally private.
But I'll help you out with what you need if you sign up for a concierge membership.
Tom, would somebody please explain to me in everyday language, the difference between delusional and liar?
Delusional is when you just can't absorb the situation.

bill i took an oath to defend the constitutions against all enemies while i went to the military
i'm sure Biden took a similar oath here i am 78 years old decorated veteran watching all of
stuff, especially to border, and feeling there's no recourse. I am completely powerless.
Not completely. I mean, you can get involved and make your voice heard as you just did, Dirkin.
But, you know, there's 330 million of us. Unfortunately, we're going down as a country, I believe
this, because of the poor education system, people can't think anymore. They don't want to think.

James Edwards, Atlanta, Georgia.

All right, tenabrific, let's get it out there.
Randy Lilly, Shreveport, Louisiana.
I was a heavy Dr. Pepper drinker all my life.
I've stopped drinking it in June of last year.
I've lost 52 pounds, four inches on my waist.
I'm taking one blood pressure pill instead of two.
Knock the sugar back.
Okay, you don't have to 100%, but knock it back 75,
and like Randy, you will prosper physically.
Gary McClure, Roseville, California, wasn't it?
Warren Buffett, who said,

nothing yeah but remember it's about the quality of the child so i've trained my urchins to be
achievers and they do achieve now i'm any worry about them if they come into some money that
they're going to be slackers because I know them. Okay, Bill O'Reilly.com store, got all kinds of
things on sale, buck up for presents you'll have to give this year. You save yourself a fortune.

Brand new polos, we will sell out of these, no spin polos. Beautiful. Spring and summer,
you'll love them. And, you know, people who live in Florida,
these now. Texas, you can wear them now, all the southern states. Word of the day, and this I think
was the first word of the day we ever had on the O'Reilly Factor. Do not be Peck-Sniffian. P-E-C-K, N-I-F-F-I-A-N. Do not be
Peck-Sinthian. I think it's the first one I ever did. All right, back with a final thought on the
document thing in a moment.
