So winter, late autumn, despite climate change in America, unless you're in the sunbelt, it's cold. All right. And the reason I'm telling you this, which is obvious, is that climate change is happening in the Biden administration. Where do you hear this? That is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. So there is a United Nations Climate Change Conference, two weeks in Dubai. You know where Dubai is? It's in the Persian Gulf. The Persian Gulf supplies much of the world's oil, which is counter to climate change people. But there's

having the conference in Dubai. Okay. Two weeks, that's kind of a long conference. Now, Joe Biden has been to two of them, but not going this year. Okay. And the reason he isn't going, and the White House has not put out a reason, but I'll tell you the reason, is because right now, at this moment, America is harvesting more fossil fuel than ever before in its history. So if Biden were to show up at a climate change conference in Dubai, the fanatics would kill him. Hey, you're the big global warming guy. You're this. You're the progressive. You're blah, blah, blah. And now, boom, the United States is harvesting more fossil. fuel than ever before. Now, the reason this is happening is because when Biden came into office,

he attacked the fossil fuel industry. You'll remember that. And so we're going green, electric cars, windmill, solar. You guys, I'm going to put you out of business with regulations. And all the energy prices in the USA went up igniting inflation. And inflation is dooming the Biden administration. So, Biden, a man of no principles whatsoever. Every principle he ever had, he changed. Biden's going, whoa, we better start getting that oil out of there. And now he's exporting a lot of oil to foreign countries, not only supplying it here. So oil prices in America have dropped for the last two months. I'll give you the stats in a moment. And overseas, we're making money selling oil to Europe, because we have the embargo on Russian oil because of Ukraine.

So this is geopolitics, and geopolitics are intruding on the climate change mandate. Okay, so we all got the primer here. So Biden, again, a man of no seasons, doesn't believe in anything. So, oh, we got to harvest oil. That's why I can't go to the climate change conference. Meanwhile, back on the ranch here, the inflation under Biden for essentials, that means what you need to live, up 18% since he took office. So all of us are paying 18% more to live. That is unsustainable.

Nobody can get reelected on that record. Nobody. And Biden will not get reelected. Okay. So now the White House is panicking. But this puts the progressive left against Biden, and they already don't like Biden supporting Israel. So the progressive left is now pulling back from Biden,

which is a good thing for conservative traditional candidates. So the real far out left wing, they don't like Biden anymore, even though he does everything they want him to do, or at least used to. Okay? So why, what is it about the alternative energy, the green economics that isn't working? Well, number one, electric cars. I mean, they're not in demand.

And I'm not going to get one until the motion I can drive further than I can now. I'm not good with technical stuff. If I plug it in, I'll get electrocuted. You know, I'm not just, mechanically, I'm just no good. All right. And they're very expensive these cars. And they have a chip shortage now. And they have a battery fire risk. And in the winter, your efficiency on electric cars drastically drops. Did you know that? I didn't know it until we started to research. So electric car, that, that whole thing is flat. Not increasing. And in spite of that, Connecticut, another loopy far left state goes, well, about 10 years, we're going to be. to forbid gas-powered cars. Well, that's unconstitutional. Number one, you won't be able to do that Connecticut. And number two, it's stupid because people are not going to be able to afford it. Even then, in 10 years or not. The other thing is the wind. Okay? So Biden, and I'll tell you about

this a minute, is going to a wind farm today to show how green he is. It's so phony. Anyway, the wind stuff is getting more and more and more expensive. Here on Long Island, where I am, you look out into the ocean, a bunch of windmills. I can see them from my house out on Eastern Long Island. They surround Block Island, which is Rhode Island territory. Well, half of them don't work. And I mean, the cost to install and maintain these things is so high that state governments can't afford it. They don't have money to do it. So the technology is not there to be a green world. I wish it were. I'm not a big fan of fossil fuels. I don't like pollution. All right, I wish we were 100% green on this planet. That includes dumping stuff in the oceans,

plastics and all that. I'm a big environmental guy, but you can't ruin people's lives for a fantasy. All right, so Kerry's going over there, blinking, Secretary of State's going over to Dubai, a bunch of other people to represent America, and then, you know, India, China, oh, yeah, we'll do it. They're not going to ever do it. They've got to feed their people. They're not going to ever be green those countries. Africa is never going to be green. So, the United States pumping money into all this. It's just sitting the money on fire. No good at all, nothing. And that's the memo. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking

the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. 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 medals delivered thousands of five-star reviews and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau, you can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326-5-7576 or text bill to 998899. Again, that's 866-326-5576-5576 or text bill to 998899. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist,

and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One. Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, newsmakers, and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. All right, so Biden is aware that he is,

administration's in grave danger because of the higher prices for essentials in America. And before he left for Georgia, he said this, go. But we know the prices are still too high for too many things, that times are still too tough for too many families. But we made progress, but we have more work to do. Let me be clear, to any corporation that's not brought their prices back down, even as inflation has come down, even the supply chains have been rebuilt. It's time to stop the price gouging, giving the American consumer a break. Yeah, I'm sure the corporations are going to do all that, right? So any guy lives in a bubble world, you know, the prices will come down

when the consumers don't go there anymore. That's why I told you about the $51 steak last week. I'm not going there anymore. The $14 chicken with rice soup from the local deli. I'm not buying it anymore. Those prices will come down when the consumer says it's not about the money. It's a principle of the thing. I know I'm getting gouged. Look at the, and what are we going to do about insurance rates? You've got to have insurance to put your car on the road. They're raising these rates, you know, three, 400 percent for no reason. And there's Biden, oh, you better not go. What are you going to do about it, Joe? What? Nothing? It's like you do about anything else. Every other problem. You don't do anything about it. All right. Let's go to Hunter Biden.

So he's been subpoenaed to testify in front of the House Oversight Committee. That's James Comer on December 13th. The testimony will be behind Senate doors, according to Mr. Comer. Hunter Biden says, no, I'm not going to show up unless I can testify publicly in front of the TV cameras. Okay, if he doesn't show up, Hunter Biden gets in even more trouble, and Congress will pursue him. So I assume he'll show up and do what he's been subpoenaed to do. Maybe I'm wrong. But Hunter Biden's a publicity hound, and he somehow wants to get in front of the American people and, you know, I mean, Democrats are going to stick up for him on the committee.

You know that. But the Republican is going to go in pretty hard. So next tomorrow, guy named Rob Walker, a business associate of Hunter Biden's, is going to testify, 930. If we get anything out of that, we'll have it. And then December 6th, President Biden's brother, James, going to testify both are private. But we're on it. We're watching it for you. So next week, there will be a Republican debate on News Nation.

It will be at 8 p.m., December 6th. I'm going to be doing some analysis for News Nation, just so you know. Debate is in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the University of Alabama campus. All right, so far, only two Republicans have made it. Isn't this interesting? DeSantis and Nikki Haley. Ramoswamy is expected to make it, but he hasn't yet. All right.

Christie, I don't know. He doesn't have the polls to get on that stage. So there might be three. I think there'll be, I don't know about Christi. I don't know. They can do it right up to January 4th. That's when the final decision will be made. Okay?

So that is happening next Wednesday. Now, let's get to our guest. We are pleased to have Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green from Georgia. She is coming to us from Washington. She's a book out this month called MTG, her initials. That makes sense. And this is the first time I've ever spoken to the congressman. Nice to have you here in the no-spin zone.

All right. I got a bunch of stuff I want to ask you. And it's not a debate. I'm not going to try to convince you of anything. Donald Trump still harkens back to the 2020 election saying it's a fraud. Okay? I have advised him that that's not a good strategy. You should be looking ahead and running on his record, not relitigating the election.

Do you believe that Trump's strategy of going back to 20 is a good strategy? Well, actually, Bill, I spend a lot of time on the campaign trail with President Trump and on his behalf. And his agenda 47, I think, is exactly the way to look forward. And I'm very impressed with it. I think it focuses on the American people and the issues that Americans truly care about. But when it comes to the 2020 election, I do believe there was election fraud. And I have a personal story with that. My own ex-husband showed up to vote and in person.

and he was told that he had already voted by absentee ballot when he had not. He had to sign a waiver, relinquishing an absentee ballot. He never requested, never voted on. And he had to do so standing in line with a line full of people that were told the very same thing. And right now there's some court cases going through Georgia that I think are very compelling that shows that there was many absentee ballots that were replicated. and that is election fraud. So I think election integrity is so important.

We should never lose sight of it. But at the same time, President Trump is doing a great job presenting Agenda 47 for the future of our country. All right. Do you know why President Trump did not appoint a special counsel to investigate the election before he left office? Do you know? I do not know. Okay. I don't know why, then.

That would have been a way to go. Okay. Second thing. Ukraine aid. So the United States is giving about $45 billion so far. NATO, about $35 billion. Do you support that? I do not. And I've been one of the few members of Congress that have voted against the money going to Ukraine from the beginning. You see, I'm unapologetically American, and I believe that I represent the American people in the United States Congress. and our problems are so great here in this country, I think we should be focusing at home.

Also, it's important to note that Ukraine is not a NATO member nation, and that's something significant that often gets left out in these conversations about supporting Ukraine. We have sent or we have approved $113 billion to go to Ukraine. That's over 10% of our defense budget. While our border is being overrun every single day, and I serve on the home. committee. It's been overrun by over 10 million people, and there are now over 1.8 million gotaways in our country. We don't know where these people come from. We don't know who they are. They could be terrorists, human traffickers, child sex traffickers, all kinds of criminals. And I believe

these issues are so serious, and they're so serious because this is what the people in my district talk to me about. And this is what people across the country talk to me about. They don't Would you support continuing aid to Ukraine if the asylum situation is revised? That's what's being talked about in the House and the Senate now, a deal. All right, tighten up asylum in return. Would you support that? I've been in some of these meetings, Bill. Actually, we had a conference meeting about it this morning.

I do not support giving money to Ukraine. They're stealing our money. There's evidence abroad there, and the Ukrainians are to be rich on American taxpayer dollars. Now, I disagree with you because I know that Vladimir Putin will continue his encroachment. Now, I'm sure you know this, but he's taken a big slice of Georgia, the country Georgia. He controls Belarus. If he controls Ukraine, then he's right on the border. He can put all his weaponry right aimed at NATO.

And then he goes into the Baltic countries that are right on his border as well. Finland just sealed its border because of the intrusion of Russia. So I submit to you, Congress, a woman, we would pay a hundred times more in five years than we're paying now because Putin's not going to stop. The second point is if Putin's allowed to win in Ukraine, say goodbye to Taiwan. Would the Chinese taking over Taiwan bother you? well let me first preface this bill there's no evidence um showing Putin saying that these things are going to happen just as you suggested these are the talking points that come out of Washington well well he's already he's already there and I won't apologize for supporting our country

and wanting to fix our problems you don't have to apologize for anything you don't have to apologize for anything wait the record is that Putin sees Crimea, under Obama, we did nothing. The record is that he sliced off 20% of Georgia, we did nothing. He controls the entire country of Belarus. We can't do anything about that. And now if he takes over Ukraine, he's got his weapons within hundreds of miles of all European capitals. This is an evil man. If you know your history, Putin is Hitler light. That's who he is. Okay, I got a bunch of questions. Israel, do you support America? American dollars going to help Israel?

I have voted to support Israel, especially with their Iron Dome, also supported their lasers. I just voted this week on two resolutions supporting Israel and their right to exist. Okay, so you support that. Another resolution that condemns Hamas because they are terrorists backed by Iran. However, here's our problem, Bill, and I think this is really important for people to understand. the Biden administration wants to control that war, and they want to control how Israel fights their enemy Hamas. And I would argue Israel has been very successful thus far because Washington is not controlling them. They've been able to bomb however they want to bomb, wherever they want to bomb. They've been able to send in their troops to go after Hamas, which I completely support Israel

in doing. What I am totally against is the Biden administration going in and trying to control Israel and how they fight your enemies. You and I agree on that. My congressman here is George Santos. He is a grifter. No doubt he is. I want to see him expelled from the House of Representatives. Do you?

I'm actually not going to vote for the expel resolution, but I support your right as a voter to make changes and who represents you in Congress. The reason why I'm voting no is is this comes down to campaign finance violations. And if we set the record where any member of Congress can be expelled on campaign finance violations, which I think are very bad, then we are looking at expelling a lot of members of Congress. And that's really the truth.

Another issue is he hasn't been convicted yet in a court of law. No, that's true. That should be what we look at. This is an expulsion vote, not a criminal vote. and I'm sure you read it, the House Ethics Committee report clearly states he took more than $200,000 in campaign funds and used it for personal expenses, and you know you can't do that. Okay, McCarthy. I thought McCarthy did a pretty good job as Speaker of the House. I don't want the government shut down because I know that would boomerang back on the Republican Party, which I believe right now

in our, and I'm not an ideologue, I'm not a party guy, I'm a registered independent. But the way we are, situated in our history of this country. The Democratic Party is heading us toward ruin. And I mean that literally, ruin, whereas the Republican Party would block the ruin. So I support the Republican Party. And I believe that if McCarthy, okay, had done what Matt Gates did and what you wanted to do and not compromised on a number of issues, that the blame would have all gone on to the Republicans and it would have weakened the party. Where am I going wrong? Well, you might be confused, Bill. I didn't vote to oust Kevin McCarthy.

I wasn't one of the eight. Did you vote not present or what did you vote on that? No, I voted to protect Kevin McCarthy. Oh, you did. I wasn't one of the eight. I think you have me confused with maybe Nancy Mays or someone else. Thank you for correct me. No, as a matter of fact, I've been attacked a lot because I did support Kevin McCarthy

and I supported him all the way in the beginning. I wasn't one of the ones that voted against him. Thank you for correcting me. You have to be compassionate, though, in this Christmas season because I'm very old, okay, Congresswoman, so I should have known that. Final question for you. Well, I think you got me confused. You introduced this show talking about extremists, and I was thinking, Bill's got to read my book. He's definitely got to read my book.

Well, they didn't even send me the book, but what we did was we researched your book. They didn't even send it to me. And I'm not going to name the guys, but I know the guys. just so you know. The final thing is in the book, whereas Nancy Pelosi tortured you. How badly do you dislike the former speaker? I'm not a fan of Nancy Pelosi.

As a matter of fact, working under her speakership was horrible. It really was. I saw this woman forced through the Biden's agenda. I saw her bring two bills to the floor that would have made abortion legal up until the day of birth. She passed the Green New Deal and many bills, but she was particularly cruel to me. And so, no, I'm not a fan.

It's an interesting part of your book, and the book, again, is MTG. Get Amazon anywhere. And we really appreciate it, Congresswoman. Thanks for taking the time. We hope we can talk again, okay? Thanks for having me, Bill. It's good to talk to you.

So yesterday there was a meeting held in New York City with the CEO Bob Iger, who's a very liberal man. So in one year, Disney's stock has dropped from 105,

no, has dropped 105 points. Sorry to laugh. It's now at about 91 bucks. 105 points. So it's close to 200 a year ago, and now it's 91. That's not good if you have, and you know how many pensioners have Disney stock in their portfolios? And the thing is, it's a disaster. It's an absolute disaster. So my theory, and it's just that I'm not a economist, is that Disney, by taking, taking the side of the woke people in Florida who wanted to introduce to seven, eight-year-old, nine-year-old children, explicit sexual material.

That's what they wanted to do in Florida. Disney sided with that crew. And, of course, DeSantis and the Florida legislature passed the laws against it. But Disney was on the other side of that. Because they are in Disney World and Orlando. They, okay, yeah, you know, six, seven, eight years, nine years old public school. Yeah, you can get all this stuff. Get all this gay stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No. So millions and millions and millions of traditional Americans saw that.

And they remember it. So therefore, the Disney Corporation is not doing the business it used to do. It's movies are bombing, and all of that. It's television operation Disney Plus not doing that well. The park still do well, because when the kid comes up to you, I want to go to Disney World or Disneyland, man, I want to go, I want to, you're going to take them. I took my urchins.

The kid back then, it wasn't a problem with Disney. Not as a problem. But if I had a 7-8-year-old kid who was pining to go there, I would probably take them. So those parks are doing okay, but everything else is a disaster. And I think it's because of the woke business, but I could be wrong. Joining us now from Charlotte, North Carolina is Paul Chesser. He is the director of Corporate Integrity Project for the National Legal and Policy Center. They watch corporations.

That's what integrity means, corporate integrity, see how they behave. So am I wrong here, Mr. Chesser? No, no, not at all, Bill. You know, there's a lot more to it beyond Disney weighing in on the side of that law or against the law that was passed by Governor DeSantis and the legislature in Florida. They're inserting, you know, Chris Rufo, the investigative journalist, was fed information from whistleblowers inside of Disney that said exposed their producers and directors saying they're going to intentionally insert. pro-LGB material in children's programming and children's movies and it was not long after that that battle and that that stuff was revealed that we saw light year the the sequel the latest sequel to the toy story series they they had created that film without any LGBT significant presence

and what they did was in response to that Florida battle they insert a gay kiss into that movie, and that really, you know, beyond the poor quality of the film, it bombed last summer. So it's not only weighing in on political issues, they shouldn't be involved in, which is what we're about. We're shareholders in Disney, and we call companies to stay out of divisive politics like LGBT and abortion and so forth. It's Disney intentionally, applying their social agenda, their LGBT agenda into their programming. And there was a disaster. There would be customers are running away from it.

That was under Chapic, who they fired. All right, that was the CEO. It wasn't there long. They fired him. And now Iger is back. As I said, he's a very liberal man. He operates in Hollywood, which you don't get more left wing than that. But Iger has kind of toned it.

toned it down, right? Well, there's more to that story because Iyer, Shepak was in power for the equivalent of five minutes in, in the corporate world. Iger, even though he stepped away from the CEO role, he was still hovering in the background. There's articles in the Wall Street Journal at CNBC that really went into depth on this. Shepak, when the whole Florida confrontation was coming down,

Sheapec did not want to weigh in on it. He wanted to stay out of it and just sort of remain neutral and keep peace until all the California employees raised hell and said, you know, you got to weigh in on this so-called don't-say-gay bill in Florida. And he felt pressured to do so. So Chepec spoke up about it against probably his better instincts. And that was also driven by a tweet that Eiger had issued from the side. guidelines on Disney, but still involved saying, you know, this is wrong, this whole Florida bill. So it was really Eiger that forced and pressured the Disney's involvement in that issue. If it was up to Chepec, he would have stayed out.

And then, you know, things sort of fell apart behind the scenes. If you read those articles, Eiger, it gets frustrated with Chepec and not giving. Yeah, I mean, but Americans that are, yeah, they don't care about that. What they care about is what you raise indoctrination to children by inserting things into children's films that should not be there. So, in your opinion, can Disney make a comeback? I think Bud Light is done forever. Not Anheuser-Busch. They'll survive.

They got other products. But Bud-Light's not coming back because of the trans thing they did. Can Disney, when a stock drops 100 points, 105 points in a year, can. Can they ever come back? Because people aren't going to forget this. They're not going to forget it. Right. That 100 point drop represents a hundred.

That's 100% drop. That have the value of their stock. So what I would say is with the latest flops with the Marvels and Wish, you know, Marvels is somewhat, you know, put women in these superhero roles. You know, there's not a lot of fans, you know, as far as, how that's portrayed. One of their top characters in the Marvel's latest Marvel's movie is Kamala. I mean, what does that tell you about, is about Disney's mind is at? And then Wish, which is supposed to be a throwback, you know, harken back to some of the popular songs

in the previous Disney movies, popular Disney movies. They both have flopped, and it's the height of the Christmas season, a big, big season for that. But they're not especially, from what I've heard, they're not especially injected with woke, you know, ideology or portrayals. So what I think has happened is Disney has destroyed trust. It's just a matter of trust. No doubt. Their credibility. The fans, that's right. The fans are staying away.

They are. You know, it's hard to repair that trust. Even though Disney may, you know, shy away from that more explicit content, it's going to take a while. And, you know, last year or earlier this year, the shareholder meeting, we called for the the replacement of the whole board because they brought even though last year Disney was a you know failed as a company that stock had plummeted a year up to a year ago we we said you know the board doesn't deserve to return but no but you know how it is out there it is very very left wing and they they protect each other mr. Justin thanks very much we really appreciate it

and just on a postscript on the story that's the power of the people okay this is you know A lot of, I get a lot of letters like, I feel so helpless, I feel, you know, I can't defend anyone. No, no. The American people finally wise up to really what the progressive gender is, and that's why I'm here. That's really the only reason I'm here to try to warn everybody in this country, the danger of this progressive left movement, of which Disney bought into. So, the consumers, the American people, that no. Once you mess with parenting, that you cross the line. Okay, back in the USA Wall Street Journal poll about the American Dream.

Okay, this is what traditional thought is based on. The American Dream is, if you work hard, get educated to an extent where you can articulate and obey the law that you will rise from your circumstance. Certainly happen with me. Okay, and you read my bio of bold press fees with me. I didn't come from anything. All right, no money, no assets, no uncle in a business, nothing. But I worked my butt off and I got educated.

Okay. So the first question in this Wall Street Journal poll is, think the American dream that if you work hard, you'll get ahead. Still holds true, never held true, or once held true, but does not anymore. Still holds true, 36%, never, 18%. Once held, but not anymore, 45%. Okay. So you add it up, and that comes out to 63%. I think the American dream is vanished. Second question, do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The economic and political systems in a country are stacked against people like me. Agree, 50%, half. Disagree, 39%, not short 10. So this is victimization. That's what the left sells across the board,

not just the progressive left. That's what liberalism sells. Everybody's a victim if you don't succeed. Your victim. Not your fault. Not your fault. Society's fault. Okay. Or the, it's a Republican's fault. Or the conservatives fall. Or who's ever. But you're a victim. So if you smoke pot all day, can't hold a job, dropped out of high school, not your fault. No. No. And go ahead and shoplift. You have a right to do that. That's the victim. So you get 50% of the people of this country, according to Paul, buy an into this. I'm a victim. I couldn't succeed.

So if you are an American citizen and you're 23 years old, man or woman, and you've got three kids, and you're 23, and you don't have a college degree, and you're not particularly, ambitious, we're going to fail. But the progressive left and liberal thinkers don't want anybody to fail. They want everybody to be given success. I just want to clear this all up how big these numbers are getting in this country. That's pretty startling. Federal spending up 16% from this time last year, Joe Biden, the biggest spending president by far in this country. Sixty-four billion we've spent more this year than last year. Okay. Social Security is the biggest one. National defense, that includes Ukraine, interest payments, and health care. All right.

So up, up, up, up. In 2023, this year, because the fiscal year is over, the government spends 6.13 trillion. We took in 4.44 trillion for a 1.7 trillion deficit. Remember Biden says, I'm the deficit cutter. I'm the biggest cutter of the deficit. Remember that? The man is just, and every guy, oh, he's a liar. He's not a liar. Okay. He doesn't know and doesn't care. So he's lying by omission, but he doesn't know. He's not. He's incapable of that kind of analysis. States in debt. All right. This is from Truth in Accounting. So these are the 10 states that can't pay its bills. The worst, New Jersey, then Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Hawaii, Kentucky, Delaware, Louisiana, California, Vermont, all of them, with

the exception of Kentucky and Louisiana are liberal states. Cannot pay their bills. Got it. Black Friday. I hope you go to Bill O'Reilly.com and do some shopping there. We make your life so much easy. You'll save tons of money. I can't come to your home and drag you in there. But anyway, Black Friday, 8% jump from last year.

Consumer spending. That's good for the economy. Might not be good for Larry, who doesn't have the money, but it's good for the economy. consumers in a holiday season expect to spend six billion and no they spend six billion on Thanksgiving Day alone wow six percent increase over last year and 222 billion dollars expect to be sent spent on gifts and stuff for the holiday season 95 percent of American consumers say they participate in a holiday gift giving

Again, Bill O'Reilly.com, make your life easy, save you money. Okay, shoplifting. This comes from the Retail Council of New York State. Just in New York, retailers, stores in the state where I am right now, lost last year 22, 4.4 billion people stealing stuff out of the store. Why? It's not prosecuted. And as I said, it's a contagion. People see other people shop, I'm going to do that.

Nothing going to happen to me. Even if I get arrested, you don't want to get? A ticket. A ticket. Why going through a stop sign? I'm going to take all this stuff. $4.4 billion lost for shopkeeping. New York police department spokesperson said there were 93,000. This is a city now.

Incidents of petty larceny through October 23, 30% higher than the same period two years ago. 93,000. Out of the 93,000, nobody's going to go to jail. There you go. Smart life. Okay, so I wrote a message of the day. Again, you can go to that.

I'm Bill O'Reilly.com. Don't have to be a member of anything every day. My son, I told you the story, I think, last week, plays lacrosse for Oxford in England. them. All right? And they were out playing a Welsh team, Cardiff. And he has O'Reilly on his jersey. And after the game, a bunch of Cardiff players and Oxford won the game. Came over and said, you Bill O'Reilly's son and took him the back. And as I related last week, he said, hey, how do you know my father? And he, because he usually says, my son usually says, no, I'm O'Reilly Auto Parts. That's his usual line.

And they said, it's YouTube. Everybody on campus watches them on YouTube, which really, really good stuff. But I don't know what they're watching, so I asked my tech people, what is this YouTube stuff? So apparently, Bill O'Reilly.com posts the no-spin news highlights on YouTube. And you can go there, YouTube.com slash Bill O'Reilly. That's the easiest way to get there. YouTube.com slash Bill O'Reilly. And then a whole bunch of stuff pops up.

And you could watch it if you can't watch the whole show. We recommend that you do, that you become a premium member and concierge members. You watch everything. But you can go there and pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. And that is really bringing in younger viewers. I was astounded this summer on how many people below the age of, 40 because remember cable news the average age is death okay that's it's what it's so old that's the

average age two steps from the grave very very old audience here youtube it's all young and as they say in a message i hope you read it this is a very encouraging sign because this balances out a lot of propaganda they hear all right here is a a final thought of the day. A dinner the other day with guys I've known since I'm six years old. And they live, one of them lives in Spokane, other lives in Cape Cod, another lives in Denver. And they all came in for a reunion and we gathered on up and we had dinner. And it was great. All right, they had pictures and old things and this and that. I really, really respect my friendships from when I was born. Okay.

A guy I went to school with when I was five, helped create Bill O'Reilly.com. So for this Christmas, here's something you might want to do. It's fun. Track down some of your old friends. It's easy to do now on the Internet. And send them a Christmas card with just a little note. Okay? They'll be so surprised and happy to hear from you.

I guarantee it. Okay? And then you'll forge, you know, give me your little email address or your text number, whatever it may be. and you'll forge all that. And it's like a hobby. It's your life. And these people can say, yo, you remember this, you remember that.

And sometimes you forget. And maybe they'll have pictures they can send you. What a great Christmas theme, right? So track them down. Send them a card. All right. That is the final thought. And we really appreciate you guys watching

and listening to the NoSpid News across the world now. See you on Monday.
