Hey, Bill O'Reilly here, Wednesday, June 30th, 2021. Welcome to the no-spin news. Stand up for your country. We're out here in our eastern Long Island headquarters. If you go four more miles east from here, you're in Portugal. not in Portugal, but heading there. So we are out at the tip. And here's something very interesting before we get to the news,

which is interesting as well. It's about 20 degrees difference in temperature between here and Manhattan. 20 degrees, and it's about 100 miles. So it's a good place to be for the summer. It's a good place to be any time. All right, let's go to President Biden's schedule 11 a.m. he gave some remarks to a bunch of governors on wildfire season and drought and heat and global warming and everything. All right, private sector partners were there.

That's it. That's all he did all day. But Fourth of July is shaping up to be a Biden extravaganza. So this is interesting. The Biden administration has put together an America's Back Together tour. It's kind of like the Turtles Happy Together tour. Have you ever seen that? It's pretty good.

But anyway, it's America's Back Together tour. I don't think we're back together, but the tour is going out. So all bunch of people fanning out over the Fourth of July weekend, which really begins tomorrow. You know, we in America, we're getting like France here. You know, we're capitalizing on a holiday. So, Monday is the official day off. Sunday, of course, the 4th July. Friday is nobody's going to work. And Thursday, I got to get out a little early to go out for my four-day weekend. So that's, and there's nothing wrong with that, by the way. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. I think you should take as much time as you can take for your own pursuits.

Okay, so the America's Back Together tour is designed to, quote, celebrate the progress in the fight against COVID. So I guess Donald Trump's going to be a big part of that, right? Because he came up with the vaccine, not him, but he made it happen. No. So President Biden on Saturday, July 3rd. It's going to travel to Traverse City, Michigan. Notice he's going to all of the contested states, Wisconsin, Michigan, and he's going to be there with Governor Whitmer, who is very unpopular now in Michigan because she kind of trashed the entire state during COVID. But Joe and Gretch are going to be together. Kamala Harris is blasting out of her L.A. place to go to Vegas, where it's about 120. So we don't expect that.

the vice president, be there too long details of why she's going, but it's the happy together to her. I've not been released. And then on July 4th, Sunday, the Biden's will host an Independence Day celebration at the White House. All right, well, they will have a cookout, and they'll view the fireworks, all of that. Now, I have not been invited. Essential workers, health care workers, military families are all going to go.

I'm not in any of that category. I'm not insulted. I wouldn't be in mind anyway. Now, Donald Trump is in Texas today. Okay, so he's down there basically gloating that, you know, he accomplished a very difficult task and stopping the mass migration into the USA. And he did. His remain in Mexico policy stopped it. Took him three years to do that.

But he did it. Now, it's crazy land. A little tape. It took two and a half years to start the wall because we were sued by everybody and then and largely by the Democrats in Congress, by the way. And now, by the way, they're doing a disinformation campaign. They're saying that the unsafe border is your fault. Okay. That's true. I mean, Democrats are never going to acknowledge that President Biden's policies are catastrophic at the border.

And they are. And the corporate media will never even report. Okay, so Donald Trump is down in Texas. He's going to be on Hannity's program on Fox tonight, on a town hall, and the campaign has already begun. It's already begun for 2024. I think it's too early myself. I'm going to speak to the president, as I mentioned, next week.

Tomorrow we'll tell you more about that. I'm going to tell them, I think it's too early to go out and have these rallies. Now, the board is a different thing. It's got the governor of Texas. with him. And, you know, he's highlighting a situation that's a catastrophe. I'm not, I don't object to that, but just to do political rallies a little early. Now, let's let it unfold. So the president wanted to do a political rally in Mobile, Alabama on Saturday, save America rally, but the authorities down there said no. And here's the explanation. So the rally, the Trump

rally, was scheduled to be at the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park. And that park has a rule, no political rallies. So the Trump people should have said this is a celebration of America a rally for 4th July. But it got into the political realm and a commissioner, Bill Tunnell, said, quote, after request was made, then there was contact with the Republican Party. They contacted us and it became apparent that it was going to be a partisan political event rather than a patriotic event plan for that evening. And again, that park does not accept political events. So that's what happened. Let me just wrap this segment up by saying. President Trump can win back the Oval Office,

but he has to change his strategy a little bit. The reason he can win it back is because he's got 72 million votes. Come on. And Joe Biden is a very, very weak president so far. But Mr. Trump's going to have change a little bit. And tomorrow we'll get into that. Now, one of Biden's problems with the Catholic Church, as you know, so Joe Biden is a promoter of abortion, not just a guy who says, hey, separation in church and state, if somebody wants to

believe abortion should be legal, I'm not going to interfere. Way more than that. Mr. Biden promotes abortion, makes it easier. Now, abortion, no matter how you define it, takes the life of an unborn. Okay? That's what it does. Now, you can call a fetish, you call a child, you can call whatever you want. takes a life of an unborn. Catholic Church is mandated by theology to protect those lives.

So the question is, will Joe Biden go to hell? He is a practicing Roman Catholic. He says that he believes in the tenets of the church. That's what he says. The bishops say, you're committing a mortal sin by promoting abortion. Not all bishops say that, but many do. By promoting abortion, making it easier. Okay. So, if that's true, will Joe Biden, if he dies without confessing that sin, maybe or he has, I don't know, but he's still promoting it. So you just can't confess and say, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, and sorry, and keep doing stuff. That invalidates the confession. here's what I said on the radio today. I think you're going to find it very interesting. Go. As you may know, the American Catholic bishops are debating whether to deny President Biden

the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. That's communion. His alleged sin is promoting abortion, a mortal sin in the Catholic Church because it denies life. If you die in the state of mortal sin, according to the church, you go to hell. Now, according to a Pew poll, 58% of Americans believe in hell. For those who do believe, 91% say the fear of going to hell plays an important role in their life. The Catholic Church defines hell as, quote, a state of defense. self-exclusion from communion with God and the Blessed, unquote. Mortal sins in the church include abortion, as stated, adultery, renouncing God, heresy, murder, rape, and suicide, among others.

Many Christian denominations view hell as a landscape ruled by Satan and his demons to oversee damned souls. for eternity. That was played out in the movie The Exorcist. Judging Joe Biden can be a sin itself. The Catholic bishops have the power to deny him the sacrament of communion, but not the right to condemn him to hell even though they are clerics. James writes in the New Testament there is only one judge, God. James says, who are you to judge your neighbor? So the Biden abortion situation is, as they say, complicated. The man certainly is making it easier to end the lives of the unborn. No question about that.

and the bishops are mandated to protect unborn lives. How this will ultimately turn out will be fascinating to see. You might say it's a hell of a problem. Sorry. And that decision is going made in November. I don't believe they will deny President Biden Communion. Okay. And if you want to listen to all my radio.

stuff. Just go to Bill O'Reilly.com. We have it all there for you. We do a daily radio show that's heard on almost 300 stations across the country. Okay, let's take a look at Robert L. Johnson. You know him? First American billionaire. He founded BET, Black Entertainment Television. Well, he told Vice News that all blacks, including him, should get reparations from the federal government. He wants $14, I thought it was $11, $14 trillion in government payments to African Americans because of past social injustice and I guess present too. Anyway, I'm not going to get it. That's not going to happen, but it's an interesting debate, I think.

And one of the guys that I follow who writes a lot about this kind of stuff is Jason Whitlock. Do you know Jason? So he's a sports guy. He might have seen him on ESPN, Fox Sports. He was on a factor a couple of times when I was doing that. And he is a contrarian. He currently works for Blaze News, Blaze Media, does a daily podcast, fearless with Jason Woodlock. I want to read you something he recently wrote, quote,

since Martin Luther King's death, liberalism has increasingly become our religion, and the Democratic Party, our church. Rewards for our allegiance are at best disappointing. Our families have disintegrated. Our men have been incarcerated and emasculated. Our communities have been abandoned by high achievers. And our children are confused and resentful of their elders, unquote. Mr. Whitlock joins us now from Nashville, Tennessee.

So people who are in the world of racial politics and who follow the social agenda in this country know that you have taken a huge amount of heat for going against the progressive of liberal orthodoxy. Has it been worth it? I think speaking the truth is always worth it. Bill, the one thing I like to push back on is I get framed as a contrarian and I think others get framed as contrarians when really we're just sticking to the worldview

that we were born with or raised with as young people. I was raised in the church and I was raised as an athlete. and that is what drives my point of view and world view. It's framed as conservative politically, but I've never even voted. I'm not really into politics. My point of view, though, I guess, is conservative because I stick to the values I was taught to church,

and I stick to the values that were taught to me as a football player all the way through college. Those values, the church and football and sports, made me successful here in America. And so, of course, I turned back around and say to young people, these are the values I was raised with, the church, a Baptist, a Christian, the things taught to me in the church. And then these are the values that made me successful as an athlete that were in alignment

with a lot of the values I was taught in the church. So I don't consider myself a contrarian, and I kind of push back against it. I'm not offended by the term, but I just think it's inaccurate. I'm someone that sticks to the values I was raised with. Okay, but you know, and you just wrote, and I just quoted you, that the vast majority of African Americans are allied with the liberal left. And therefore, if you are not allied with them as you aren't, then you can be accused of being an Uncle Tom, a sellout, and I'm sure you have been.

So I get back to, it gets back to, you're doing something that brings pain upon yourself, correct? Yes, but I certainly don't want to cast myself as a victim. Let's look at what happened to Jesus for sticking to what he believe and what I believe is the truth. And, you know, certainly nothing that bad has happened to me. Have I paid a price in the secular world and in the political world where Democrats, have convinced black people that blackness isn't a skin color, brownness isn't a skin color. It's a political point of view. And I don't share that political point of view because I tend

not to share. I don't have any kind of political point of view. I have a Christian point of view. I have the values that I saw my parents use to push me and my brother and my step sister ahead. And so I just, yes, in this godless world that we have created, an America that has totally stepped away from the Judeo-Christian values that made America great. We've stepped away from those. We've gone the other direction. And in that society, I am shunned by people who choose politics as their religion. And for black people, you know, left-wing liberal politics is our religion, and Barack Obama's Jesus Christ. I reject that.

Barack Obama worked in Chicago. Chicago is now ground zero for African Americans being murdered by other African-Americans. Barack Obama does not speak out about it, didn't do anything about it in his eight years. And neither do any of the African-American leadership that I know. know of why not uh because they are more aligned with politics than they are with doing the right thing and so look there's no political gain in in addressing fatherlessness in the black community because we know that that is at the heart of all the violence you see in inner cities where there are no where there is no family structure where there

there is no male role model. You're going to have violent chaos. There's no upside in that politically. You don't gain voters by addressing those issues. I go all the way back to, I wasn't alive then, but the Morninghand report in 1964 or 65 that talked about the crisis in the, and at that time, blacks were called Negroes,

and he said, crisis in the Negro family. And basically, it was a call. to for America to address and invest in the black family structure. And he sworn that if we didn't, there would be a crisis. Lyndon Johnson and the Democrats decided to scrap the Morning Hand report and ignored. And they went with the Great Society initiative and the welfare check and the government replacing the father and the man in the home. And we are now experiencing the ramifications of 50 years of 50 years of those type policies.

Absolutely right, Jay. And Obama and these guys, because the Democrats prescribe this drug, they're not going to be the ones to tell you, here are the ramifications, here are the side effects of those drugs. And corporate media won't either because corporate media is frightened to death of being branded a racist or whatever. Now, I want to bring you back in a couple of weeks, and I want to talk about the media with you, all right, what your lens and what you are seeing

in network news and cable news and sports reporting, all of that. Okay, so will you come back in a couple of weeks and talk to us about that? Love to, Bill, and I hope you're ready to talk about China because that's where that all leads. Yeah, we'll get China right in there, Jason. Absolutely. Happy Fourth of July. Thanks for helping us out. We'll see you soon. Thank you, Bill. All right, so cancel culture hits Capitol Hill. There was a vote to remove Confederate statues from the Capitol grounds, 285 to 120. In the House, a number of Republicans did vote for that, 67, to take the statues of Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederacy, Alexander Hamilton Stevens, Vice President, John C. Calhoun, former Vice President of the USA, and a member of Congress from South Carolina.

of those statues are going to go, okay? I don't have a problem with that. I don't think they should be destroyed. I think they should be put in a Civil War museum. But, you know, these were insurrectionists who were promoting slavery. Maybe they didn't have slaves, but they were promoting it. And just like Joe Biden on the abortion thing, you know, you can say, oh, I don't really believe in it. But but if you're making it happen, you're responsible. Okay. L.A. County, Delta variant. Whoa.

Whoa, the delta variant. That sounds got to be a movie, right? It's got to be, got a movie, though. Anyway, that's a strain of COVID, Delta variant. And apparently, 123 people in L.A. County, nation's largest county, are infected with the delta variant. and a few of those, 10 of them, are fully vaccinated. So now L.A. County says, hey, back with the masks, you go anywhere inside, you got to wear it. You know what to me? I'm not wearing a mask. And I did some research. And the Moderna Vax, which is what I have, the Pfizer Vax,

that protects you against the Delta variant and every other variant of COVID. it. Johnson, Johnson, they don't know. They don't know yet. That's a single shot, Johnson. Johnson's not as effective as Moderna and Pfizer. But anyway, in L.A. County, you got a way of asking him or something. I don't know. I'm not wearing it. Yesterday, we told you that this week, the iPhone first appeared in the USA in 2007. Can you remember back before the iPhone? So I'll I was remember in 9-11 when it happened that everybody was calling me, but they were calling me on landlines, and yeah, there were mobile phones, but there wasn't texting, and it wasn't any of that, okay? And life was a lot more uncomplicated than it is now. So, as we reported

yesterday, the iPhone's taken over the world, everybody has. And here are the five ways that in America, iPhone has really changed people. Now, I want you to think about you and your kids and grandkids and all that when I'm telling you this. The first thing is the ability to listen and speak has diminished greatly because of this. So whenever I order something, I have to say it a number times. But then, before I hang up, I have the person on the other end of the phone, read it back to me. And 50% of time, it's wrong. So people used to be able to, when you said something, they got it. Now they don't, because they're not used to person to person direction. It's all on this. Okay? So there was a

survey, a scientific survey, you need to tell somebody something nine times before they remember it, nine times. Now, they might remember it in the moment or for an hour, but to have it here, nine times, on average. Now, some people are quicker on the uptake, but that's the study. Now, the ability to speak, if you are a well-spoken individual, you have a huge advantage in the society, but most people are not. They use double negatives, they can't express themselves, and even when they're texting, they can't spell, even though you have spell check. It's L-O-L or, you know, all of that. But the ability to express yourself in a clear, concise way, I don't know how many times in a course of a day I have to stop people, even on my own

staff, and say, okay, let's slow it down. What is the main point? You get them to focus their thoughts on telling me what's important. So the ability to listen and the ability to speak clearly as decline. Secondly, the ability to concentrate. Now, I know this better than anybody. So when killing Lincoln, my first killing history book was put out, she sort of roared through the world because people were reading books then. Now people are not reading books. One of the reasons the publisher, my publisher, St. Martin's Press, wants to put out a second killing book this year is because they don't have a lot of books.

Because people aren't reading books. Now, thank God, my books are still enormous this Sunday, July 4th. I mean, number one, again, on the New York Times list, is eight weeks. So I'm lucky, but most people can't read a book anymore because of this, because their concentration span is so short, unless things are blowing up or going crazy, man, you know, I keep the killing books going, like, as fast as I can. Because I know concentration spans are short. So reading, sitting down and reading, or even listening to a book.

They're grabbing the phone, looking at the stuff, because it's all short pops on the phone. Third thing is, manners. There are no matters on the Internet. No manners. You know, go into a restaurant and listen to how people order their food. It's not please, thank you. Those are the old folks. It's like, I want this.

Let's get that. Because the phone is immediate gratification. You don't have to be polite to the phone or on the phone because you're not talking to anybody. You're texting. There's no feedback coming at you. So matters, forget it. Respect for parents.

Now, this is huge. So the urchins, their neck is down. They don't want to talk to mom and dad. Mom and dad's annoying. They take, mom and dad take attention. away from the phone. I want to talk to you. Even at the dinner table.

All right, my dinner table, phones are banned. But the urchin still reach for him. Hey, I go, hey, like, hey, like this, okay? But he'd go to a restaurant and watch. You're sitting around a table and waiting for the door. I don't want to talk to you. How was your day, dad? How was your day, Mom?

What do you think about this, Dad, Mom? unless the urchin is extraordinary. It's gone. Okay, final thing, spirituality, not religion. So again, religion is basically when you're a kid, you're dragged into the church or temple or mosque or whatever, buddy parents, and they reach a certain age where you don't go anymore, or voluntarily you want to go. But they don't go anymore, vastly outnumbered as they want to go. So, spirituality is about someone else, something else, a higher power. How did we get here? How does nature work?

What should I do with my life? Philosophy. Thinking about it. Oh, we're not going to do that. We'll play a game. We'll play a game. Okay? So you basically have a situation where the machine, you can go.

communicate with your friends and family fast that's good and most of the time somebody's in trouble we can get help and you get information i use this stupid thing every day bang bang bang somebody asked me a question i used to have to annoy my staff no i don't i can go right to wherever the source is you get the info that's good but there's more bad than good i'm not even get into the harmful stuff that you can get on that. And you know what I'm talking about. Narcotics, pornography, you name it. Right there. Boom. All right. Excuse me. The iPhone, in my lifetime, next to medical stuff, like the Vax for COVID, the most influential invention ever. This day in history, June 30th, 1936. Gone with the win, the novel, published, Margaret

Mitchell. The woman was 26 years old when she was writing this. 26. All right, comes out in 1936 on this day. and immediate bestseller, and she wins the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1937. Though Margaret Mitchell had 27 years old, she got Pulitzer Prize. And then in 39, MGM pays her a pile of dough to make the movie. Now, Mitchell didn't have anything to do with the movie. She goes to the premiere. So MGM says, hey, look, this is going to be huge. And Gone With the Win, the movie, is the most profitable film of all time.

$3.7 billion in ticket sales to this day. Gone with the win. Okay. So the second, by the way, is Avatar. Avatar is $3.2 billion. So Gone With the Wind's a perennial. I remember when I was, oh, jean, it had to be 19. One of my first dates.

I wasn't Mr. Smooth with the ladies ever, but when I was a teenager, it was a disaster. I took a very pretty girl on Long Island, so he got on with the win. That was a mistake because the movie was so long, couldn't even talk to her or get to know her. But I did. I remember that. So now it's shown all over the place. HBO Max is one of those places, but HBO Max got a big problem with that. Big, big, big problem.

So last June, a year ago, the movie was pulled, all right? and then put back by HBO with a disclaimer. I'm going to read you the disclaimer. Quote, The film presents the antebellum South as a world of grace and beauty without acknowledging the brutalities of the system of shadow slavery, upon which the world is based. The film represents enslaved black people

in accordance with longstanding stereotypes as servants notable for their devotion to their white masters or for their white masters or for their ineptitude. All right? The film's treatment of this world through a lens of nostalgia denies the horrors of slavery

as well as his legacies of racial inequality, unquote. That's not wrong. But there was a movie called Jango, Quentin Tarantino. Okay? That also portrayed Samuel L. Jackson as a slave devoted to his slave master, who was a brutal guy. You'll remember if you saw the movie. The movie's very brutal.

All Tarantino's movies are. But it doesn't glorify slavery, and quite the opposite. But it does traffic and stereotypes. The movie does. So would HBO have done that to a Tarantino movie? No. Because HBO is a far-left company. It's run by and it says that we have to do these depictions and we have to do this warning

about all that. And again, I don't object to it because of WarnerMedia's values. I'll give me a blank and break. I mean, come on, the value, they want to make as much money as they can. They sucked every nickel out of gone with the wind, so now they're doing this. And that's AT&T running that up. That's HBO, you know, you know what it is. HBO, that's CNN, the whole crew, which is awful.

But anyway, the novel Gone with the Wind came out today. Good story, right? Okay, we have a, oh, by the way, in the movie Gone with the Wind, and I think you might know this, that won nine Oscars, and one of them went to Hattie McDaniel, best supporting actress, who played the role of Mammy, just a word now, get you canceled. And she got some heat before she died, and Ms. Anil's quote was, hey, I'd rather play a maid than be a maid, unquote. She never apologized to that role, and she should not have.

She did her job. All right, back with the mail, and a final thought about 4th July. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust. American Hartford gold. And you can do this.

Get precious metals delivered to your door or place in a tax advantage, gold IRA. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401K, tax and penalty free. With 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 866-326-55-75-76 or text bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-3-2-6-5576-56-5576 or text bill to 9988-99. Okay, let's do some mail. We go to Gary Al-red, Randleman, North Carolina.

regarding election fraud, you said, O'Reilly, there cannot be proof without forensic investigation by feds uncovering the fraud. How will this ever happen as a winner's control of federal agencies? It's not going to happen. But remember, Donald Trump was president from Election Day through January 20th. I call for, almost immediately, a special counsel to be appointed by the Justice Department. That's William Barr. To this day, I don't know why. wasn't, and that's one of the questions I'm going to ask Mr. Trump in my history tour with

him. That was the only way to get solid evidence of fraud if fraud existed. Rudy Giuliani running around, a Mike Lindell, a my pillow guy running around, it didn't matter. It didn't matter what they said. You had to get proof you could see, not anecdotal evidence, in order for the courts to look at it. And it didn't happen. David, concierge member, a David gets a direct access to me. You're absolutely right, Bill, about Donald Trump not changing. He is who he's always has been. Hence, he'll never be reelected for a second non-consecutive term like Grover Cleveland. Not so fast.

72 million votes. 72 million. Economy goes south. Mr. Trump emerges with the nomination, which is possible. Democrats can have problem. Daniel Fang, El Dorado Hills, California bill, why don't Democrats seem interested in finding out the origin of the COVID virus? Excellent question, by the way, Daniel. Excellent question. And it's a very simple answer. Because Donald Trump pinpointed the virus as being from China very early. And liberals

and Democrats all rejected that. And that's why they don't want to know the truth. Charles Montabano. Oh, Nutley, New Jersey, your comment tonight, O'Reilly on the no-spin news concerning the murder of African-Americans was stunning. I'm not surprised. Problems in the African-American community can only be solved by that community. Government cannot do it, and no amount of social spending will do it either. It's true.

But you can spotlight the problems honestly, as we have here, and the statistics are overwhelming. 90% of African-Americans who are murdered in America are murdered by other African-Americans. 83% of whites murdered in America are murdered by white Americans. Susan, as has been said multiple times, if everything is racist and nothing is racist. It's a word now has become irrelevant. Kimberly. Good for Bernie Goldberg. Shame on Brian Gumbull. Sick of these wealthy nine white people living in the high life, and we all know them, saying they're so oppressed and downtrodden on when they live in beautiful homes, have expensive vacations, send their children to exclusive schools. Let's be fair to Brian Gumbull. I don't know him, by the way. I've never met him. I thought I knew everybody, but I don't know him. Let's be fair to him. His point was there's racism everywhere in the USA. We go to the deli, there's racism.

You go bowling, there's racism. Whatever. Bernie Goldberg says that's not true. He doesn't believe that, and he's very distressed that this is what HBO is putting out there. Brian Gumbull didn't say he's oppressed, because he clearly is not. He's very wealthy. He does what he wants to do. He succeeded in America.

So it's not Gumbull whining about racism. personally. He's saying that there's racism towards blacks in general. Susan, no, I did Susan. Kathy McSherry, good Irish name, Kathy, Syracuse, New York. I enjoy learning everything you teach its bill about world events, but I love it when you talk about Holly. Can you tell us a little bit more about what she does when you're at work? What does she like to eat? What is her favorite thing to do? Well, I'll show you what her favorite thing to do is sleep, 17 hours a day. Now, the Tara Dog opened her eyes to accommodate me for a photo up this morning, all right? So I said, Holly, the eyes open.

But the moment I snapped the picture, the eyes closed. As far as what she likes to eat, anything that's in the bowl. She'd say anything. A couple of times she said, no, not eating that, but they're a good eater. And whatever else she likes to do for fun, she likes to bark at other dogs. That's her main hobby, is barking at other dogs.
