Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News for Monday, January 20th, 2025. Martin Luther King Day. inauguration day. I'm delirious already, but up since very early in the morning putting this stuff together. Here are the headlines as you stand up for your country, correct? Donald Trump absolutely humiliated Joe Biden in that inaugural address. I don't think it's ever been done before in American history. It was a complete repudiation of the Biden administration. I don't think I would have done it. I'm not saying it was wrong to do. He told the truth, Trump did, basically,

you know, overall. But boy, Biden's sitting there, what, six, seven feet away? And we'll go over it. Right before the inaugural address, President Biden pardoned his family members, everybody but Jill. That's kind of disturbing. We'll get into that. All right. And then after the address, Trump goes out and goes, I wanted to say more, but Melania and J.D. wouldn't let me or didn't want me to or whatever. What Trump wanted to say was about elections and they're not, you know, there's still fraud. And I'm happy that Melania and J.D. Vance intervened there. because that would not have been good. So the Talking Points Memo focuses on the address, 30 minutes.

A few weeks ago when I spoke to the president, he told me to be 45. I'm glad he cut it down. It was fairly pithy. You know, he didn't waste a lot of words. Wasn't anything new. It was just repudiating the Biden administration and saying what Trump is going.

to do, all right? The crowd was civil. John Roberts, Chief Justice Supreme Court, swore him in. Everything went according to plan. But boy, it was a harrowing, harrowing to listen when you, you know, I'm saying, what would I do in that circumstance if I were Joe Biden? Biden didn't do anything, and he really couldn't do anything other than walk out.

And that would have been horrible. But boy, that was, as I said, I think unique in American history. I think back with there's anything like that. I don't think so. All right, Soundbide number one was an overall repudiation, as I said, of Joe Biden's administration go. As we gather today, our government confronts a crisis of trust. For many years, a radical and corrupt establishment has extracted power and wealth from our citizens while the pillars of our society lay broken and seemingly incomplete disrepair.

We now have a government that cannot manage even a simple crisis at home, while at the same time stumbling into a continuing catalog of catastrophic events abroad. Okay. Nothing new there. I said in the United States of Trump on News Nation, the special that aired on Friday and Sunday, and I hope you saw that. I said to Leland Vittert. He asked me, who does Trump despise? And I said, eh, I really want to get into that. And then Leland said, you know, and I gave him Joe Biden, Joe Biden's name. Donald Trump despises him. He feels he's weak. And that's the worst thing you can be to Donald Trump is weak and a loser. All right, second sound bite, got a little emotion into the speech. It wasn't much emotion. This was it. Go.

Those who wish to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom and indeed to take my life. Just a few months ago in a beautiful Pennsylvania field. an assassin's bullet ripped through my ear. But I felt then and believe even more so now that my life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again. Okay. Trump believes that. I know that. Now, he did talk a bit of immigration. And he And here's what was interesting about that. He concentrated 100% in his remarks, and there were a lot of them, a lot of immigration remarks. And I'm going to wait till tomorrow to see what executive orders he signs later on this evening

about illegal immigration. But it was obvious he used criminal gangs, criminals, criminals, criminals. Obviously to me that he's not going to go after the people working in the hotels and in the fields, that that's not going to be a priority. And I told you that from the very beginning. He did campaign on, we'll get them all out of here, on, on, on, on, but you can't. It's impossible because they have to have due process. The criminal thing is a different situation. Now, one strong thing he did say was you're going to use state and federal resources to get the gangs, all right? MS-13, the Venezuelan idiots.

And believe me, those people, I would not want to be those people because they're going to come down. And why Biden didn't do that is just beyond belief. Trumb will do that. But let's put the immigration specificities off till tomorrow. The third soundbite was speaking to the base, the MAGA base, directly. Go. As of today, it will hencefully. be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male

and female? Now, I did that for two reasons. Number one, it stokes the base. He hates woke. He hates DEI. But he did it because he knows that the left, they're just beside themselves. All right? When you say something like that, that directly.

And he knows that. He's a provocateur. He wants them to hate him. Let me repeat that. President Trump wants the far left to hate him because he believes that stokes up his base. All right, final sign about I have for you on the inaugural Panama. Now, I know this I cover because I haven't been involved directly in Panama.

like I was with the hostages, and we'll get to that a little bit later on. But I did talk to the president about Panama, is what he said today, go. We have been treated very badly from this foolish gift that should have never been made, and Panama's promise to us has been broken. The purpose of our deal and the spirit of our treaty

has been totally violated. American ships are being severely overcharged, 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. Theroux, the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold.

and that includes the United States Navy. And above all, China is operating the Panama Canal, and we didn't give it to China. We gave it to Panama, and we're taking it back. All right, a couple of things. But China's not operating the Panama Canal, it's providing security, which it shouldn't be. And I don't think we're going to take back the Panama Canal. Why would we want to do that at this point?

But Trump's get any deal he wants. And he'll get it. He'll get it. Whatever deal President Trump wants, he'll get from Panama. I can't stand up. So he's got that in his mind, believe me. and that'll be one of the first things who get, what, 75% discount on all-American shipping, including military, and then they'll have to boot the Chinese out and replace them with American security companies.

That's what I think is going to go down. President Trump also says he's going to sign an executive order changing the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. I wouldn't do that. Mexico was here before America. Do you guys know that? Mexico is here. It was a country. Way before we were a country.

So, historically, Gulf of Mexico is appropriate. You just give them Mexico this. You give them a little shiv. And the United Nations is not going to go along with that. Nobody's going to go along with it. Mapmakers aren't going to change it. I mean, what about it? Right, Gulf of Mexico, Gulf of America.

You want to call it Gulf of America? Okay, fine. But most people don't understand that Mexico was there operating before the USA. Now, they had Europeans in there and all of that, we understand, but that I don't understand. Okay, a few other things about the inauguration. Michelle Obama did not accompany Barack Obama. Is anybody surprised? I wouldn't, if I were Michelle Obama.

I'm in Hawaii and my mansion there. I having a great time. It's January. I want to go to D.C. where it's eight degrees? No. Particularly because I understand how Michelle Obama sees her country. It doesn't have anything to do with Trump. So, oh, Michelle Obama wasn't there.

No. Why did you expect her to be there? Now, Barack Obama has a responsibility as a former president to be there. All right. But here's something. Her and Pence, Mike Pence's wife, didn't show. She hates Trump. And she's a Republican, unless she didn't show.

And on and on and on and on. But generally speaking, I expect a little bit more, I don't know, fracas, but it didn't happen. One person who did impress me with her demeanor was the senator from Minnesota, Amy Klobuchar. I was impressed. I thought she handled itself very, very well. So, just an aside. All right, so the executive orders are the big thing this week, and we're going to be very busy covering all of them for you,

and we'll give you the why and all of that. Close to 100, we're expecting, by Friday. In addition to Gulf of Mexico being Gulf of America, Mount Denali in Alaska are going to be changed back to Mount McKinley. because Trump likes McKinley because McKinley was a tariff guy. Now, I have been to Mount McKinley. Beautiful. A lot of bears.

Can't just walk around there, by the way. By the way, another charitable donation, I'm sorry. Can't just walk around. So some pinheads changed it from McKinley to Denali and then I know you change it back. end birthright citizenship. Can't do it. It gets into Constitution, so he can sign it. Not going to happen.

Designated criminal cartels as terrorists. Thank you. That was my suggestion. Way, way, way back. Thank you, President Trump. And now we can wax them. We can do them solely money on them. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you've got to read Killing the Killers.

So once the United States government designated, all right, the jihadists and the terrorists as enemy combatants, the president can go in and get them. And so this is a terror group now, all of the Mexican drug cartel. So we could send troops in and we'd kill them from space. Good. They deserve to be killed. Every one of them deserve to be killed. sell poison. And Biden pardoning 2,500 drug dealers? Insane. Biden doesn't know what he's doing.

All right. What else? DEI programs out. And a whole bunch of other things about energy. But we'll go once they're signed, once we see, we'll go over it. So Biden before he leaves office, he pardons Anthony Fauci, Mark Millie. Benny Thompson, who headed the January 6th Committee, Adam Schiff, Zoe Lofgren, Pete Aguilar, Stephanie Murphy, Jamie Raskin, Elaine Luria, all of these January 6th, Congresspeople, Liz Cheney, Adam Kissinger.

All our pardon should Trump go after them, which I don't think you would, but they're pardoned. And then how about Sarah Jones, Biden, the president's younger sister, Valerie Biden Owens, Owens his husband, John Owens, his brother Francis Biden, and his brother James Biden, and his wife, Sarah. Why? Because they all got money from the Hunter thing. Hunters are ready part. Now, we need a special counsel look into the Biden family. Can't have Pam Biden, the attorney general do it. The Senate looks like the publicans doing the same thing Democrats did.

Okay? No. Judge, very well thought of by both parties, special counsel, did the Biden family derive money from then vice president or president Biden? Yes or no? Did Biden himself get money? We need to know. I don't care about pardons. I don't care about any of that.

We need to know. Fair? I think so. All right, Washington, D.C., very tense. A lot of people are going to get fired. Bullet tape. We expect certain agencies to be deleted outright. We expect mass reductions in force in areas of the federal government that are bloated.

We expect massive cuts among federal contractors and others who are overbilling the federal government. All right. Joining us now from Silver Spring, Maryland, Dr. Tevi Troy, senior fellow at the Ronald Reagan Institute, author. of the book, the power and the money, the epic clashes between commanders and chief and the Titans of Industry. Okay, that is out on Amazon. You can pick it up and you should. So, Dr. First of all, your impressions of the address. Did I make any mistakes or say something that's not in context? No, of course not, Bill. You were great. But I would say that the weird thing about the speech was it seems like it had more than one speech writer. The opening part was very

optimistic talking about the new golden age. The middle part was the part you talked about that was quite pugnacious and as he said, worrisome to Biden and perhaps disturbing to him. And then the third part was more unifying in that typical grace notes you usually see in a presidential address. So I do wonder if there was more than one speechwriter working on the text and that's what they put together. There were five, five speechwriters working on it. And they cut it down big time and but the central thing that separates Donald Trump from say Ronald Reagan is that Trump doesn't want to win over anybody he'll tell you wants to be unified that's be a he doesn't couldn't care less about winning over anybody that hates him he'd like to win over

people that don't know but not that hates it so let's get specific about this I didn't feel sorry for Joe Biden because he I think he's been so harmful to the country that that it's hard to feel sorry for a guy like that. But I have never seen, in all my research, as a historian, an ordealal address, humiliate a president, outgoing president like that. Have you? No, I haven't. And look, it's not about feeling sorry.

I mean, I am happy to see Biden good. Oh, I think he was a very poor president. The question is, did you feel uncomfortable for Joe Biden? And I think anybody watching that would have to say, yeah, you felt a little squirby. No, no, no. When he was going to find out of his face in that way. I disagree, doctor. A lot of people are going to feel joy.

They want them pummeled. I think both can be true. You could say you are happy about it. You could imagine that it was uncomfortable for Biden as the point I'm making. And that's the point you were making earlier. Yeah, I don't even know if Biden was listening. Certainly Jill Biden was seething behind him. But both Biden and Kamala Harris sat side by side.

I was trying to look at him. You know, it was a wide shot. But Biden himself kind of, but Kamala did not change expression once. Yeah, but never smiled. She seemed very unhappy. Yeah, I mean, but that's normal. But you concur with me that I don't think it's ever happened before. There was no what they call grace.

Okay, use it as a little grace that, okay, we don't like them, and we think they're a bunch of, you know, whatever, she put the adjective in. but they're there or one country. We're going to let him escape with a little dignity. No, not here. Yeah, I think there was an interesting contrast to 2017 when the American Carnet speech was also kind of rough on President Obama who was sitting there,

perhaps not as rough as this one, but it came after Chuck Schumer's speech that I thought was very nasty towards Trump. This time, as you correctly noted, Amy Klobuchar had a lot of grace notes, and I think she really helped herself in the way she did it. So Trump's comments seemed unprompted, whereas in 2017, they seemed responsive to how nasty Schumer was. Now, thinking back to Ronald Reagan, taking the mantle from Jimmy Carter, Reagan didn't humiliate Carter, if I remember correctly, correct?

No, he didn't in his speech, but he was usually critical via humor. You know, the most famous line of that Reagan campaign was that a recession is when your neighbor loses his job. A depression is when you lose your job, and a recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his job. So he'd like to make fun of Carter and do it in a humorous way. But there wasn't real humor in this speech. It was just kind of right in your face, boom. Now, examining history, both Reagan and Trump take over from very weak unpopular presidents. Biden's outgoing job approval number of the lowest in history, he did get lower than Richard Nixon.

and it was kind of a tie last week, now he's lower. Both are going out as failed presidents, and that's not going to change. Is there a difference between how Reagan saw Carter and Trump sees Biden? I don't think Reagan hated Carter, the way you said that Trump seems to hate Biden. I think Reagan just thought Carter was ineffectual,

and we needed it to get different leadership for the country. So I think there is a difference there. I think it's interesting what you're saying, how there's some parallels between Trump and Reagan. Reagan also, the criticism of the media was softened by the fact that he'd been in the media and entertainment world for so long. The American people had their own independent relationship with him, kind of like Trump was in all those movies and TV shows over the years. So that kind of softened the way people saw him, also taking over for a very ineffectual Democratic president. And even today with the fact that the inauguration was indoors hasn't happened since Reagan's second inaugural. So there's some interesting parallels with Reagan there.

It actually helped Trump today, I think. It made him a sharper focus indoors and if he had been freezing his butt off outdoors. One final thing, though, Reagan did not, as you pointed out, he didn't hate Jimmy Carter. He didn't really have any feelings about him at all. It was kind of a neutral.

Primarily because he believes that Biden ordered the Maelago raid, all of this stuff, to humiliate Trump, try to take him out. That was the difference. Last word. Yeah, look,

the big difference is that we have more lawfare in this country than we did back in the 80s, and I think that's a real problem, and I think we need to get past that lawfare, and political differences shouldn't be criminalized. You should look and solve these things at the ballot box. All right, Doc, we appreciate it very much. Thank you. Quick update on the hostages here. The deal is done. Ninety Palestinian terrorists are out, and everybody goes, oh, it's not fair. Look, Mossad knows who these people are. They're tracking them. They do anything. You're going to have a bullet in the back of their head. So I'm not worried about that. I'd like to see more Israeli hostages out. At this point, I only know of three. I think there's more, but it's murky over there.

But anyway, that deals in effect. And then there's a debate about, well, it was because I'm not going to get into that. Both sides, Biden and Trump worked together, and that's the way it should have been. I was going to do an MSNBC story, but I'm not going to run a soundbites because it's just predictable garbage. But I wanted to tell you about it because we have Bernie Goldberg coming up. MSNBC, NBC News hasn't learned a thing. going to be the resistance. They see weakness at CNN because CNN's trying to come back a little from the far left, hate Trump stuff. CNN's trying to get into a more moderate zone. NBC says,

you know, we can take what few viewers are watching CNN if we set up a resistance. That's what they're doing. You're not going to get any quarter at all. They're not going to be fair at all. They don't even talk to people on the other side. They just run propaganda all day, all night. That's what MSNBC does. It's hurting the brand. It's hurting Lester Holt that today shows no doubt. Okay? But the Republicans are getting a lot bolder now in defending their party and Donald Trump

and attacking the press. Roll it. You are going to vote for Caspercal. No matter what, but yes, I am ready to vote for Cash Patel because you will never ask me the role he played in exposing the darkest. moment of the FBI since Edgar Gerber that's why I trust him okay ask him about going after journalists which he's also said I'm interested in the answer to that yeah I'm sure I'm sure Democratic friends will ask him and you shouldn't worry

about Cash Patel okay you should worry about reporting the news fairly which you don't do when it comes to everything Trump and that's true Marjorie Brennan is a far-left person shouldn't have that program but I mean I don't mind her being a pundit, that's fine. I might hire her. I'd love to debate her. That would be great. But don't give me face the nation. You're progressive. That's who you are. You shouldn't be doing that job. Each job should be appropriate. All right, talking about appropriate, here's Bernie Goldberg. Oh, my God. The purveyor of bernardgoldberg.com, very successful, independent website that analyzes the news with no favoritism.

I don't see any favoritism there. He doesn't even say nice things about me as much as he should. That's not true. That's not true. That's not true. All right. So Goldberg, where do you want to go? You want to go press first?

You want to go Trump first? What do you want to do? Let's do the liberal media and the MSNBC thing, which I think goes beyond MSNBC. I think liberal journalists by and large will take their cues from Democratic politicians. If Democrats see themselves as the resistance, then liberal journalist will also see themselves as the resistance. Let me read you one sentence from the Wall Street Journal, an editorial in the Wall Street Journal about this. The press, which went all in for the resistance the last time, has heard its credibility so much that Mr. Trump, can afford to ignore most of its criticism.

That's true. And he will ignore, as you know, Bill, he will ignore the press's criticism. But here's the thing. All of us, you, me, everybody listening to us, the garbage man who collects our garbage, the president of the United States, we all need somebody or some buddies to keep us in line, to make sure we don't go too far. I don't know who's going to do that for Donald Trump. not Republicans in Congress, they are scared of Donald Trump

and they're not going to do anything to disagree with him. That leaves the press. So let me ask you this, Bill. How is Fox News going to cover a Trump administration when as many as 19 members of the Fox family will be part of the Trump administration? So who's going to keep an eye on Donald Trump? Who's going to keep him in line?

Who's going to do him? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Who's going to do him a favor? Wait, wait, wait. Fox News never kept Donald Trump in line, ever. That's true, that's true. All right, I mean, you had, no, hold on, hold on, that's true. But with 19 members of his administration, they're not going to start now.

Trump could move into a Fox headquarters. Look, your point is, there's got to be somebody in the media that has some kind of reach. without partisan motives. Right, to report what he does well and what he does it. Well, hello, right here, all right? And now more people watch me than watch me at Fox News. If Donald Trump does something irresponsible or I feel isn't helping the American people,

I'm going to report it. So that's one, your two, I think you'll do it too. So forget about legacy media. They're in a tank. All they care about is making money. So they're going to date is going to go right down the line. We hate them. We love them.

But independent media, there are some of us that are dedicated to doing this kind of work. I'm glad to say you are totally 100% correct. All right. Were you offended when Trump humiliated Biden who was sitting six feet away? I really was. I'm sort of glad you asked me that, Bill. I wasn't expecting it, but I was. It was cringeworthy.

It's one thing to deliver a campaign speech. Do it at a campaign rally. It's one thing to deliver a state of the union speech. Do it in that form. And it's certainly okay to do it on social media, to say whatever. But to demean the president. And by the way, I am no fan of Joe Biden or his presidency or his policies. I want to make that very clear.

But to demean him, to issue a smackdown of his four years in office with him sitting a few feet away, I didn't find that gracious. Does he deserve it to be treated with grace, Biden? And let me play devil's advocate here because I was a little uneasy too. I'm glad to hear that. Biden's hurt a lot of people. And in a number of ways, economically, obviously everybody knows that. People are dead because of him, Biden. He has squandered our treasure, biggest spending president in history.

That's going to come back to bite every one of us. He is awful. I think he's corrupt. My call for a special counsel look into him and his family. I think he is. I think that's going to be proven. So does he deserve, Grace? I think Donald Trump could have risen above it.

He could have been better than Joe Biden. I don't think you would have done what Donald Trump did. I would have worded it differently. But I got the same message across. Okay, so you wouldn't have hit him in the stomach or kicked him while he was down. You asked me a question. Did I feel uneasy? I did.

It's over for the network news, right? You worked in it. I worked in it. You much more longer than I did. So they're not coming back. ABC, NBC, CBS, right? It's the scene story. It's a theme song. Yeah, nah, nah, nah, hey, hey, goodbye.

It's over, right? It's an idea whose time has come and God. Okay. I did a little research on this, by the way, and I got numbers. The number of people watching the CBS Evening News, the number of households in 1981, when Dan Rather took over, was immensely in crazy larger than it is today. I mean, it's a tiny fraction of what it was in 1981, and it isn't getting any better. I can't disagree with that.

So Goldberg and I are some pad to go on two major issues today. Appreciate it, Bernie. Always good to see you. Thank you very much. CNN's revenue in the last three years has dropped $400 million. And we know that because of the court. They just had to settle something millions of dollars because of Jake Tapper. Here's another one.

So, hey, Jake, way to go. Just lost your company about $20 million in a defamation suit in Florida. that you lost. And in the court testimony, the discovery, CNN has lost $400 million in three years. I was going to do Nancy Pelosi's daughter, Rip and Jill Biden, but I don't have time. I'd rather get to you guys. We'll do TikTok tomorrow, and I'll tell you what's going to happen with TikTok. Okay, Supreme Court says U.S. can ban TikTok because it's owned by the communists in China. Beijing owns it. And TikTok compiles data about us. And the Supreme Court goes, way, that's the national security thing.

So if the Trump administration, which it won't, but if it wanted to, it could ban TikTok. Well, what's going to happen is a deal, because that's what always happens. And I'll tell you about the deal tomorrow. Okay. Smart life. You go to Bill O'Reilly.com, right? And my column you want to read, it's called He's Back. You know who He's is, right?

Well, I'm reading my own column on a website, and pop-ups are going all over the place. Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop, Pop, All these ads. Drive me nuts. Gone. And I lost money. I called the producer of the website. I said, no more. Gone, get them off. Out, get them off. We are not in this to make as much money as we can by ruining what we have. So no more pop-ups on Bill O'Reilly.com. Now, if you want to read DeCom, you don't have to be a premium or concierge member. You just go in and read it. He's back. You're going to have a message of the day that you're going to want to want to see two about the disintegration of the of the Democratic Party because it's

simultaneous no more pop-ups stay in history January 20th 1937 President Franklin Roosevelt first inaugural address remember he's elected four times and then they passed a law after him after he dies and no more of that four times this was 1933 okay it's the first president ever to be inaugurated january 20th roll of tape my fellow americans expect that on my induction into the presidency i will address them with a candor and a decision with the present situation of our people impelled so first of all let me assert my firm belief That the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Why was the USA's population in peril?

Because of the Great Depression. Tremendous suffering going on. FDR died April 12, 1945. It's 63 years old from a cerebral hemorrhage. And you might want to read, Killing the Rising Sun, because we got all of that. Harry Truman took over and how.

Roosevelt died, very interesting. Okay, quick break. I'm back with a final thought about what's going to happen to President Trump in the next 30 days. Okay, I'm pretty good at the predictions. You know that. 90% last year. Got right. So between now and March 1st, what's going to happen is the Trump haters in the media. And they're still there, but they're not reformed. they're going to try to create hysteria by taking things that he does. So, for example, when ICE raids some migrants, which they will, ice will, ice will. The media will select an innocent person who gets caught up in a raid, a child, a mother, And that's the story that you will see.

Not the MS-13 gang member, none of that. I'm not going to see any of that. Whatever happens under Trump's administration, the angle will be, let's find somebody who's sympathetic and who people will say, oh, that mean Trump, that bad, evil Trump. Now, you're going to get, we're going to get. And I am going to spotlight it almost every time it happens on the major networks. Okay, I will bring it to your attention.

Nobody else does this, by the way. We're very glad that you're watching and listening on the radio to the no-spin news. We are so far ahead. I had a guy come up to me the other thing that goes, you know, I've watched cable news for almost 30 years. I'm never watching it again because I don't get any information. It's the same thing. every hour on the same the same the same at the end of the day what do you make of this he goes i'm i'm giving it up and i think that is the prevailing wisdom in this country there's

nothing else i get it so if you want information you turn on one of these channels but you don't think you know this is it right here right now and thank god we're growing with youtube and all of that stuff we're out there but keep note of the false reporting if you you see it, let me know. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, bill at bill o'Reilly.com, name and tell them. Give me a flag on it. Because we're good, but we can't see everything. Thank you for watching and listening to the no-spin news. We'll see you tomorrow.
