We tape in late afternoon Eastern time here in New York. So by 7BM, Iran could be bombed by U.S. and that could happen, no doubt. Iran is. seven and a half hours ahead of us and the bombing will be done at night and there will be no

advance notice to the press or anybody else you don't do that you don't tip the enemy hey here come the american bomber so we're on this uh as soon as anything happens we will be tweeting it out we're doing stuff on bill o'reilly dot com i'll write a column on sunday all of that so stay close to us today's a federal holiday june taintth most people don't know what that That is, so at the end of the Civil War, slave states out west didn't know the Confederate surrendered because there really wasn't any mass communications. There were newspapers, but they didn't get out to Texas and Missouri and Arizona and all of that. So the Union Army actually had to go physically to Galveston, get off the ships that took them there

and tell the people, hey, no more slavery. And they did that by putting up posters and making announcements in the town and all that. That's Juneteenth. And federal holiday, and I subscribe to it because African Americans have gotten it worse than any other minority in this country. And we all need to acknowledge that. And, you know, we need to understand what black Americans, what their ancestors went through. It's very important. And I write about that in confronting evil part of the book is the slave trade in America.

Where do you see this? It's incredible what happened. So anyway, June 10th, federal holiday. Now, let's get back to Iran's the subject of the Talking Points memo. We've got to do the right thing here. That's number one. And I applaud President Trump for taking his time. He's trying to get the Iranians to surrender without.

US military power. That is a good thing. That is the right thing to do. And that's the key. Always do the right thing. That's not that easy. The right thing was removing Saddam Hussein, and we did that. But it led to horror because our follow-up was to occupy Iraq, try to make it to a democracy, and it just didn't work. So you can do the right thing and still screwed up. Here, to his credit, again, President Trump's taking his time trying to get these nukes out of there without blowing up the world figuratively. Okay, I mean, literally we're going to blow up a mountain if we decide to use air power and destroy their nuclear facility. But you know that after that happens, there's going to be stuff that's not good. So the president would rather have the mullah surrender.

And he still believes a chance for that. Most people don't. The odds are that they won't surrender. Saddam Hussein didn't do it. He didn't even have weapons of this destruction. He was such a loon. Okay, so what about the American people? Well, they are supporting the president in the Iran campaign.

Roll of the tape. And overall, I feel like there's more support for Donald Trump's positions than is comically acknowledged. Oppose Iran getting a nuclear weapon. I mean, look at this. 79% of adults agree on that. agree with Donald Trump, Iran cannot get a nuclear weapon. 83% of Republicans, 79% of independents,

79% of Democrats. When you get 79% of Democrats and 83% of Republicans agreeing on anything, you know that that position is the very clear majority in this country. And so the American public is with Donald Trump. They definitely oppose Iran getting nuclear weapons.

Okay, but then a question becomes, how do you stop it? So the Washington Post, which is solely in business to advance progressive causes, it's not a newspaper, it's a journal. It's a progressive left journal. So they do this very strange poll. Listen to this closely. So the Washington Post says their headline is 45% of Americans are against potential U.S. strikes in Iran. Okay, 45% against military action, according to Washington Post. Well, how did they get that number? So they took a text message poll, not.

a scientific poll. They texted people and they got the data from an operation called SSRS opinion. I don't know what that is. But if you got a text from the Washington Post and you're a conservative or even a moderate chance are you're not going to answer it because you don't like them, right? So they're texting people, hoping people will reply and some people did, but My hypothesis is 90% of them are left, and they don't want military action. Okay. So we look at that poll. We look at the headline, and the press grabs at, oh, 45% don't want military action.

What about a scientific poll? I have one. This comes out of Rasmussen. Okay. And here's question number one. Would you support or pose military action by the United States to destroy Iran's nuclear weapons program? Support 57 opposed 30%.

So there's a 15-point gap. The Washington Post push poll and the Rasmussen poll. And this is what I mean by propaganda. So the Washington Post puts this out, and then the left-wing media pushes this. Rasmus'I puts out very, very little reportage. So you at home think, well, most people do, you know, they don't. They don't. And this is my job now to filter through all this propaganda for you.

So last night I was on News Nation. It was the three Americans, Stephen A. Smith, Cuomo, and O'Reilly. And then we added James Carvel. Now, Carvel is a very dedicated Democrat, right? I think that's accurate. And he's very, very rarely dissents. He yells at progressives once in a while when they're just insane, but he is really involved with that party. He makes money and consult.

So he puts forth this is all Trump's fault, Carville. He says that if Trump didn't get out of the Iran New Deal that Obama made, that everything would be fine. This is just not true. All right. So let's run Carvel first. and then I'll back it up, go. It was widely assumed when he pulled out, and I think correctly, that Iran was in compliance.

That is, in era, there were inspectors in Iran at the time. Okay, so that's not true. Here's what I said. Number one, the Iranians cheated on the Obama deal. Everyone knew it. That's why Trump pulled out. Okay. Number two, 79% of the American people,

according to CNN today, supports preventing Iran from getting a nuke. And number three, Stephen, this is most important. The Muellers don't deny their, have the nuclear capacity. They just say, we're going to use it for peaceful purposes. Okay, so how did the Iranians cheat on the Obama deal? Now, you remember that we had an investigative report, I wrote a column, on it that said that Barack Obama, while president, made a nuke deal with the mullahs, and he gave the mullers $1.3 billion to sign the deal, including $400 million in suitcases in cash on a private

plane flown to Tehran in the middle of the night and nobody knew about it. Okay, just that's a setup. So here's what the mullahs did. The Obama nuke deal was the Iranians could only have 4% in rich uranium at 4%. By the time the deal collapsed and Trump was president.

Also, they were not allowing the UN weapons inspectors in. They were holding them up time after time, just like Saddam Hussein did. There were no Americans in there. So the President of the United States signs a deal, a nuke deal, with Iran, but there's no U.S. verification. Does that sound like a good deal of you? The Trump said it was ridiculous.

Throw it out. According to Carvel and the Democratic Party, this is all Trump's form. There would be no problem with Iranian nukes. had Trump kept the Obama deal. Now, do you believe that, please? If you believe that, bill at bill o'Reilly.com, bill at bill o'Reilly.com,

and you can contact your liberal friends too. And you just send me a couple of paragraphs on why you would believe that. Okay, so now I'm giving you the facts. I'm telling you what happened. Now, Carvel doesn't lie, in my opinion, known him a long time, but he believes what he wants.

to believe. That's what he wants to believe that it's Trump's fault. Everything's Trump's fault. So he's not going to do what I did. And I didn't do it myself, but my staff and it's good. You know, I said, look, find out what the true story was. And boom, it comes back. And I can tell you. All right. Another wrinkle to this. So Trump's on a phone with Putin, a true psychotic. And Putin says to Trump, hey, I can mediate a deal between the USA and Iran. Remember, Putin gives Iran weapons. Doesn't give him uranium, as far as we know, but it gives them weapons, heavy weapons. So Trump says this, go.

Would it never happen to vote his president. Putin would have never done it. And I spoke to him yesterday, and I said, you know, he actually offered to help. mediate, I said, do me a favor. Mediate your own. Let's mediate Russia first, okay? All right, so I thought that was a pretty good response. Some people think that Trump's in the tank for Putin. I think he's given Putin probably too much rope at this point and should slap on the banking sanctions, that's just what I would do. But, you know, he's the president. But he's certainly not in the tank. And then Putin mediating is ridiculous. All right. I'm going to bring in Barack Obama

since we, his talking points memo, since we've spoken about him. So I respect Barack Obama. If you read confronting the presidents, I lay out the good and the bad. Okay, I don't agree with him on he's quasi-socialist guy, believe he's huge government. should run pretty much everything. I'm not even close to that. But he worked hard, and I thought he tried to improve things for marginalized people. All right. He doesn't do much now. He gives speeches, and he makes an enormous amount of money, but he's not running around, you know, visible all over the place. But here's what he said in Hartford, Connecticut, it two days ago.

Roll it. Democracy is not self-executing. It requires people judges and, you know, people in the Justice Department and, you know, people throughout the government who take an oath to uphold the Constitution. It requires them to take those, that oath seriously. And when that isn't happening, we start drifting into something that is not consistent with American democracy. It is consistent with autocracies. Well, the president's lucky I wasn't sitting next to him because I say, well, what are you talking about?

What are you talking about? Everything that Trump has done, all the executive orders, all the policies have been immediately taken to the judicial system to the judges. Where's the autocracy on that? Okay, it's in the system. And then the appeals court rules and finally Supreme Court rules. I don't see any danger to the system. That's the way the system's supposed to work. Trump wants to do certain things.

He makes an order. He gets sued. It goes into the system. The judge's rule. Then the appeals rule. And finally, the Supreme Court rules. What's the beef? What is the beef?

I don't feel threatened. I don't feel that an autocracy is upon me. I mean, I could have just, if it were, Barack. Obama and O'Reilly debating what he just said? Okay. But most people, again, and it's not their fault. What I gave you in the past 15 minutes, how could you know? How could you know what the original Obama-Iranian nuke deal was?

How? You couldn't. You have to depend on people who get paid to research this stuff. And 80% of them are lying to you, misleading you, which is why you're here. Because you can't make responsible honest decisions if you don't know reality. And what the president did just there, Obama, was he gave you a false reality. We're not drifting toward autocracy. That's not true.

And that is the memo. All right, tax and spend bills, as you know, passed a half. House on May 22nd by one vote. The Senate, now the Republicans say they got to pass, you know, reconciliation. They're getting their things in by July 4th. Will that happen? I don't know. It's going to happen. It's pretty chaotic there. And, you know, almost every Republican has to support President Trump on this. Few won't. That's always the case. But the big thing is Medicaid. is the propaganda factor again. This is really serious. All right. So Medicaid is when you don't have enough money to pay your medical bills. And the states, all 50 of them, help you

with that. That's Medicaid. Medicare is you pay into the federal government covers your insurance, but you've already paid the premiums there. that's medicare so medicate is for the poor all right now it is the it is an astronomic or more than a trillion dollars is projected to go to medicaid payments we don't have the money can't afford it anymore okay and so the trump administration wants to tighten it up how do they want to do that They want to have work requirements, okay, for people with not young people in the home, that you have to try to look for a job if you can't find one. You have to do some public service to get the government, the states, to pay your medical bills.

Is that sound reasonable to you? It sounds reasonable to me. The best coast just got better. Introducing Quantum of the Seas sailing from L.A. this fall.

Get off the drugs. Get off the booze. The second thing is the state's exploit Medicaid by slapping a tax on it. So the poor people and everybody else have to pay to receive the service, and the Trump administration wants to cap that because it's out of control in some states. Again, it's not pretty reasonable. So there's a poll and AP poll. Okay.

Now, the Associated Press is not an honest broker of information. Before this poll came out, here's their headline, okay? Quote, Trump's $4.9 trillion tax plan, targets, notice that word, targets, Medicaid to offset costs. Targets? Okay, why don't we say reforms? Wouldn't that be a better word than target? Reforms it.

So that layabouts and frauds don't get free taxpayer Medicare medical treatment. Not Associated Pratt. No. Okay. So then they put out a poll. Question number one. What do you think about the federal government spending on Medicaid? Too much, 18%, too little 50%.

About right, 31%. Now, you have $37 trillion debt in this country. Okay? and the majority of Americans think it's too little that they're spending on millions and millions of people who won't look for a job so that they can afford their own health insurance or get it from their employer?

That's insane, but they don't know. Oh, yeah, because people are afraid. They're afraid they can't pay their bills. Second question. The Associated Press concludes the American people don't want any cuts. Okay, that's your conclusion from the poll. Okay, but there are no cuts. The spending rate from the federal government is saying they just want to bring it down going forward.

Not by cutting it, but by getting people off, the rolls don't belong to be there. They don't belong there. They want to cut. They want to cut. Okay. I got a couple of other media stories I want to tell you about. So there's a woman named Caitlin Collins, 33 years old, White House correspondent for CNN, and she does a prime time program. And I met her, talked to her briefly, Alabama.

Very nice. I don't know what her political leaning is. I know she works for a liberal operation CNN. She's pretty gutsy out there when she's firing those questions. Roll tape one. Have you seen the Tucker Carlson, Senator Ted Cruz, interview? It seems like this issue on whether or not the United States should strike is kind of dividing a lot of your supporters.

No, my support is for me. My supporters are America First and make America great again. Okay. provocative question, but absolutely within the bounds. I would have said, do you think they're dividing your supporters? All right. Second question, again, President Trump. Go. Does that mean you haven't made a decision yet on what to do? I have ideas as to what to do, but I haven't made a final. I like to make the final decision one second before it's due, you know, because things change. That's right. So good questions by her.

Most of the television news people are in the tank. Okay, so there are questions like written for them. You ask this, you ask that. She's not that way, I don't think. But here's the flaw. And I hope Ms. Collins watches this. She only does that to the Trump administration and Republicans. She doesn't do it to the left.

She doesn't ask the left tough questions. Let me give you an example. so we had a lot of controversy about this no king stuff okay and off that the bomb throwers the progressive bomb throwers said all kinds of nonsensical ridiculous stuff roll the tape this is not the the country we were born in this is not the country we believe in this is not the country our founding fathers imagined and this is not the country that is supported by our constitution, our ideals, our values. We know exactly what he's doing.

We know exactly what his intentions are. He's blonde Berlusconi. This is just, I mean, he's just trying to do the same thing all the other strong man and would be dictators do all over the country. We have been known in this country to tie gay folks to the car. But where the Iranian regime is two days, I'm sorry. They used to just keep hanging black people. So let's not even the same.

tie gaze to the car, hanging black people? Well, might have happened a hundred and twenty-five years ago. So the point is that Caitlin Collins should have all three of those people on a show and say, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? I mean, Maddo was so confused that she said all over the country when she meant all over the world, People can make mistakes verbally, I do. But, you know, it's like this crew, and you see them all the time, all they want to do is make Trump look bad.

So, okay, Caitlin, you're asking Trump to tough questions, and you should. What about these people? All right, let's have a little of that. Would CNN even let it? I wrote a message of the day. I don't know if they'd let her or not. But I'd like to find that out. Okay. Fox News. So this is an interesting story. Jennifer Griffin, one of the best reporters in a country. I've known Jennifer for almost 30 years. And there is a guy out in California, an Afghan national named Saeed Nasar Nouri. He was taken into custody by ICE. And he is a former transnational.

later for U.S. troops in Afghanistan during the war. And Jennifer's outraged. She says, this should anger every American. Throw it on up there. All right. And then others are coming to Mr. Noury's aid saying, quote, this guy helped our troops. He hasn't broken a single law. He was doing everything right to seek asylum. And yet ICE threw him in detention anyway, the goal of handing him to the Taliban. I don't know about that last sentence, but there's some outrage here that the ICE took this guy into custody. Here's what ICE says. So we're fair. Here's what I says. Okay. On June 12, ICE officers arrested Sayy Nasir Nouri, Afghan National, entered the USA unvetted via the CBP, one app under the previous

administration in 2024. There's nothing in his immigration records indicating he assisted the U.S. government in any capacity. All his claims will be heard by a judge in the Afghan interferes, persecution's law, able to request asylum. Okay, but it's how are you incarcerating him? What are you doing? Obviously, he's going to ask for asylum, and his brother got it. Okay, his brother helped the U.S. too, and, you know, he's on his way to be able to live here as a resident. Now, to me, if he's a translator, if he translated for U.S. troops, you can't go back to Afghanistan.

then? This is what I mean. I support ICE. I support the deportations of people who should not be here, mostly criminals, but there should be a review by Homeland Security in cases like these. You don't just strong-arm the guy and throw them in some tank. You see what I mean? And that's where I think Homeland Security can improve and should quickly. And we appreciate Jennifer Griffin pointing it out to us. Mexico, it's a narco state. It's not getting anybody. It's getting worse.

Claudia Scheinbaum, new president, seems to be afraid of the cartels who gunned down a Mexican mayor yesterday, Martha Laura Mendoza, a few days after killing Lillia Garcia Soto, another mayor. And the cartels are killing local politicians at a record rate creating chaos in Mexico. And not only did they kill the women, these women, they kill their husbands, their children, everybody else. What is Claudia doing about it? Nothing. Put us in a box.

Go ahead. That just gives us something to break out of. Because the next generation 2025 GMC terrain elevation is raising the standard of what comes standard.

Okay, that's a

good win in Tennessee. The governor there is Bill Lee. Congrats to you, Governor Lee.

Well, they're going to help migrants, undocumented migrants to Dodgers. But they don't say how. Maybe free tickets. A guy named Kiki Hernandez. Okay, I think he's a shortstop, but I'm not sure. All people deserve to be treated with respect, dignity, and human rights. Okay. How about all people deserve to obey the law, Kiki? Yeah? No? What do you think? So maybe we'll have it at Dodger Stadium, we'll have undocumented immigrant night. And you'll let them all in free.

Okay, and maybe we can do that. Stay in history, June 19, 1953, Julius Rosenberg, 35 years old, and his wife, Ethel, 37 years old, were electrocuted at Sing Sing Prison in New York for selling nuclear information to the Soviet Union. They did it. Now, Julius, they took him out on the first vault, but Ethel, a half hour took to kill her in that chair. Half hour.

Now, how do we know they did it? Well, Nikita Khrusha, remember that name? He was the guy with JFK and the missile thing with Cuba, wrote a book. And in the book, he says that he learned from Stalin and Molotov, another big shot, that the Rosenbergs had provided very significant help in accelerating the production of our atomic bomb. That's from cruise ship.

I believe it. Now, the Pope tried to get the Rosenberg sentence commuted to life with President Eisenberg hour. I said, no. So that's what happened 72 years ago today.
