So I want to give you a reminder, because it still is early in 2006, no spin means we don't pander, we don't propagandize, and we don't push ideology.

That's what no spin means. It's like we try to analyze the news based on every possible fact we can accumulate. That separates us from almost everybody else, okay, because most people have a precon. conceived, I'm going to say this because that's what my audience wants to hear. We don't do that, all right? And so when we're analyzing very important stories, like the rebellion what's going on now in the United States, we have to gather an enormous amount of information in order to make sense of it all. And I'll prove it again this evening, beginning with the talking points memo.

So I wrote a column, posted on bill o'Reilly.com, filed it on Saturday called The Rebellion. So there are eight states that are rebelling against the federal government's immigration law. I will list them in a moment. Okay. And what does that mean? It just means they refuse to obey the law. That's a rebellion. This is the sanctuary city movement, but it's more than that.

Okay, so on Saturday you saw one of those states, Minnesota, host a demonstration against the ice shooting of last week. A couple of thousand people showed up and there's nothing wrong with people protesting. That's what we do in America when we don't think something is wrong. But this protest was sponsored by a far-left group called the Minnesota Immigration Rights and action committee. This was an ideological protest, not an organic protest. It was organized exclusively by the far left to seek people's presence on the far left. That's what this was all about. Okay. Authorities of Minneapolis arrested 29 people, and they were throwing chunks of

and other debris at the local cops. Feds had no presence here. So a local demonstration. All right? And one police officer was hurt. That's the who had one where and why of the rally. The people who attended the rally are in one category. They are leftists who hate.

the Trump administration. Roll the tape. There was another instance of someone in our city being killed, being murdered, law enforcement, and I'm ready to be done with it. I love my community, I love my city, and I hate what's happening to it with people who frankly aren't from here coming in and telling us who should be here. And when it comes on to loving my neighbor, I'm just going to love my neighbor. Here's ICE, riding through our neighborhoods, destroying families. destroying businesses, tearing our communities apart, and they're not being held accountable.

And that's why we're here. We're out here to demonstrate to try to hold them accountable. Okay, fine. But that's not what really that is. That is an open border. We don't want any law enforcement to confront undocumented migrants. We don't want it. You let them in, they do what they want. That's what these people stand for, but they're never honest about it. That shouldn't be a surprise. 75 million people voted for Kamala Harris, who supported President Biden's open border policy and didn't want any law enforcement against people foreign nationals who came into the country illegally. Calm Myers wouldn't done anything.

It would have continued on the open border and let people just, Wave on it. Okay. 75 million Americans voted for her. A lot of folks. Of course you're going to have that. Now, the eight states in open rebellion are these. California, Oregon, Washington State, Colorado, Minnesota, Illinois,

Massachusetts, and New Jersey. New York and Vermont are right on the edge there. I don't have them on there because there's a little dialogue, at least, going on with Washington, but you can put them on there. And when you have 10 states, it's basically telling the federal government, we're not going to obey your law, you have what they had before the Civil War. It's exactly the same thing. And I make the point in the column that from 1830 to 1860, 30 years.

Southern State said, we're not going to obey whatever you say. And we're not just talking slavery. We're talking tariffs. We're talking almost everything. Andrew Jackson slapped them down. Okay? But then we had a series of weak presidents like Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan who lit us out rise in ferocity.

And then we had the Civil War. That was a rebellion against the federal government. The only other time in our history we've seen this was during a Vietnam War. But that was a populist uprising. Started out ideological. But then the war got out of control because of Lyndon Johnson's incompetency and deceit. And the American people, and that just cut across almost every barrier, said enough of this. And the demonstrations happened.

And violence happened. Tenth State National Guard and a lot of other areas. Now, the federal government at this point has a couple of obligations. Has to enforce the law. Has to. But they can de-escalate violent confrontations. So if ICE agents see that there's a person like Ms. Good impeding their investigation with a automobile, the vehicle,

then you do escalate that. You arrest her later, which they could have done easily. All right? You don't up it because if there's a lot more violence, then the Trump administration is going to lose the country. It's going to. You've got to de-escalate in any kind of potential violent situation. Now, that doesn't mean if the ICE agents are attacked,

that they can't fight back. They should fight back. I'm not saying that. But if you can lessen potential violence, you have to do that. And that's not just me saying. That's every law enforcement agency in a country has that in their manual. If you don't have to use lethal force, you don't. Get it later.

Do it later. Now, that's number one. Number two, 77 million Americans voted for Donald Trump. And that vote needs to be respected. It's not respected by the left. Okay, it's not. And it's probably a vice versa on that, too. But when 77 million Americans say we want immigration law enforced,

you get on enforcing. The Trump administration is not doing anything wrong theoretically. Okay. but the ICE commanders have got to know that this is a volatile situation. Because if it gets worse, the Democrats are going to win the midterms. And they're making their stand

not on the economy now because the economy is pretty good. They're making their stand on this. This is the hill they're standing on. Illegal immigration. I think that's foolish. I believe most Americans see this Minnesota.

those stuff for what it is, a provocation of the federal government, a rebellion against social order. I believe most of us see that. And the Democratic Party is standing opposed to that. It's going to hurt him, particularly because it's a weak party with no leader. But if you are calling ICE Gestapo, and you are supporting open borders and no supervision of foreign nationals, and you won't even cooperate in the 10 states that I mentioned with criminal migrant investigations. You wouldn't even cooperate then. America's going to walk away from you, in my opinion. Summing up, the federal government has to enforce.

force immigration law. But it has to be done a little bit differently now. Situation is just too volatile. We don't want dead people. But we do want people held accountable. And that's a memo. All right. New data. The first quarter of the year, fiscal year, is for the federal government, is October, November, and December. passed. All right, so according to customs and border protection, it's the lowest intrusion of the

southern border ever. All right, border cross-down 95% from Biden. So 91,000 were apprehended in three months at the border under Trump's two. Look at these stats under Biden. Okay, fiscal year, first quarter, 2003. 865,000. Fiscal year, first quarter, 2004, 988, almost a million. And then the last year, because they were running to try to get reelected, it's almost 400,000. And now that's down in 91.

So obviously, the Republican Party, and Trump has done a good job in stopping that flow. But remember, the Democrats don't want to stop it. They don't want to stop it. That's the key to all analysis. Okay, let's go over to Greenland. So I did talk to President Trump briefly on Friday. I kind of feel sorry for the guy, but he creates a lot of his own mayhem.

So I don't think U.S. fortunes are going to invade, going to invade Greenland. I'll go right up top to say it. it would be a disaster, an absolute disaster, if that happens, for the Trump administration and for the United States. Because NATO would fall apart, Putin would win. Remember, Putin's rationale to go into Ukraine was Russian national security. We need this territory because NATO is going to attack us. I'm not so much garbage. But that was his rationale. The Trump's rationale is we need Greenland to protect us against Russia and China.

There's some truth to that. We only have one military base on that island. We should have about 10 because the ships, submarines, all kinds of stuff, coming down from the Arctic Ocean past Greenland. But we can make a deal. I'm thoroughly convinced about that. Remember Panama a year ago? I wrote about this on a message of the day on bill o'Reilly.com.

And I was in a cabinet meeting with the president and he's going on again. I said, you don't have to do that. Whether it's with your besties or date night, get to all the hottest concerts with GoTransit. Go connects to all the biggest entertainment venues and makes it affordable with special e-ticket fares.

Find out more at goadransit.com slash tickets. And they worked that out. You haven't heard Panama on a year. I think that's what will happen at Greenland.

I hope it happens. Because if the U.S. military were to go into Greenland, Democrats would win the midterms big. Big. Only 9% of Americans support a military incursion into Greenland. Let me back it up. Quintipiac poll. All right.

Would you support and oppose the United States trying to buy Greenland? Support 37, opposed 55, don't know eight. To support military force? Support nine. Oh, geez. Oppose 86, don't know six. And the president is a smart guy. He knows all right.

I don't think he's going. I think he's saber-rattling to make the best deal he can make. I think that deal will happen. may even happen this week at Davos, Switzerland, where the president's going over with a big U.S. contingent. Talk to the financial pinheads. Maybe they make a bill over there. I hope so.

I hope so. I was getting to the point of view of this. Joining us from Washington is Hugo Gerdon. He's the editor-in-chief of the Washington Examiner Newspaper. In my analysis, did I say anything that you quibble with, Mr. Gurdon? No, no, I don't quibble with it at all. I completely agree that strategically it's important for the United States to have a very strong military presence in the Arctic and in northern Greenland. It's important for the Golden Dome. It's important for the protection of the Arctic, important for the protection of Northern Europe. But the president seems to me to be going about it in precisely the wrong way. And Denmark has already said, it's made it perfectly plain, that it's willing to make a deal. So, you know, we don't. We don't want to let our enemies operate in the Western Hemisphere. We basically made sure of that down in Venezuela,

but we don't say we've got to own Venezuela. We can make the deal with Denmark. And, you know, one of the ironies, I think, is, Bill, that in many circumstances, the President is saying the Europeans should do more for their own defense. Well, here's a perfect opportunity to get a NATO ally to do more for its own defense by saying, right, we're going to strike a deal. The United States can have a 50-year lease or a 99-year lease for set up military operations in the northern Arctic, in the Arctic from on the north coast of Greenland, take on the Russian nuclear-powered icebreakers and the Chinese moving into that area.

It's something that they should be doing. And today's news today about the exchange with the governments of Finland and Norway was just extraordinary. I don't believe that. I got to tell you, maybe it's true. But President Trump, what he likes to do, and I'm sure you know this, is that he likes to throw the hand grenade in and it blows up. And then from that swirl of smoke and everything, then he walks in and gets the best possible deal. So he likes to keep people on edge.

He likes to say things that are provocative and he likes to have everybody on the end. And then he comes in. And it's like Mighty Mouse, here I come to save the day. And he almost does it every time. Yeah, look, I think that there's truth in that. And it's one of the cautions that one needs when always, you know, when considering what Trump is doing. He will go in there and, you know, create a kind of mayhem or extraordinary circumstances which everybody's hair is on fire. and then when they settle for 60% of what he's asked for,

or they rush to make a deal, he's actually getting what he originally intended to get. Right. So I completely agree with that, but it doesn't mean to say that any method of getting there is really unacceptable or a good one. I don't think it's a good point. I think what he's got now is all of Europe hates them.

Do we really want all of Europe hateness? that we don't. No. So, but three weeks from now, all of Europe might like us again, because he'll do something that would benefit them. I don't know. But I understand the overkill. But that's what he's always done.

I mean, if you trace, if you read my book, the United States of Trump, I mean, every business deal, every political deal, remember the first debate when he had the nine guys lined up on a stage, and he just blew them up. Right. You know, boring Jeb and Lion Ted, and it's people, he's shocked. And it works for him.

And so it's hard when I'm speaking with the president. I'm always respectful, no matter what president it is. You know, I can't say, well, he can say, look, it's been successful for me my whole career. And that's where his mindset is. Yeah, he will actually sometimes prevent people who are kind of broadly speaking, supportive of him from explaining away or trying to put into context. And I mean, right back when he accused President Obama of starting ISIS and people would say, oh, what he means is that he was creating the circumstances in which ISIS could start the Islamic State.

And he said, no, no, no, Obama started it. He says deliberately outrageous things, and indeed they are outrageous. And then you're left to calculate later, well, okay, we got, he got what he was. we wanted, he got things for the United States, he shocked people in the way that he did it, what is the price that we paid for getting the thing that we want? Yeah, that's a legitimate question. I mean, there is certainly on the East throughout the world. Now, we go over to Iran, and that's a situation where there are a lot of different nations involved. Saudi Arabia, a big player, not very vocal on it. But, you know,

You know, they're big and Trump listens to them. What do you think is going to happen there? Any idea? Look, I'm, you know, I think there's quite a high likelihood, if not very, very soon, but pretty high likelihood of American military involvement over there. I don't know. There's not a lot of information that comes out about exactly what the state of protests are, but they seem to have died down.

Obviously, thousands of people have been murdered by the regime. But I think that, you know, there are reports of former members of the government there being arrested by the Republican guards for having, you know, contact with the Shah or, you know, the successor outside the United States. And there are defections, the diplomatic defections. They don't necessarily count for very much, but they are kind. They might be straws in the wind. I think a lot of people would say, and I think I agree them with it, this regime is on its last legs. It cannot stay in power, even with the repressive methods that it uses, for that much longer. But how much that much longer is, is a difficult question.

It seems to me that the United States was probably caught without the proper military assets in the area. That's not surprised. There was a huge deployment, obviously, over in Venezuela, and there's a carrier group that's coming from the South China Sea. and by the time it gets there, the current wave of protests might be flattened. But I think that your viewers should probably expect more turbulence and ultimately the United States getting involved, not because not with troops on the ground, of course, but with things like cutting off Republican Guard communications,

they know the United States has proved itself extremely good, disrupting the ability of... Yeah, I know. They'll flatten the Revolutionary Guard headquarters. That's what I think will happen. But it's all the matter of what was put forth by the Gulf states was if you go in now, then the Ayatollah is going to use that as a religious fundamentalism turn.

Look at the great Satan's trying to destroy all of us. And so it wasn't a right time to do it, which I think has some merit to it. I know the president would like to take them out, but they want to do it surgically. So just sum it up, I don't believe that the U.S. is going to put military into Greenland unless there's a treaty signed. Do you concur with that?

No, I do. I concur. I don't think that they're going to do it, and it would be absolute disaster. Right. That would just ruin the whole Trump administration. All right, Mr. Godin, thanks very much for helping us out on a holiday. We really appreciate it. Thank you.

Thank you. All right, guys. There's not really anything new here other than there's a report today that the ICE agent who shot Ms. Good last week has internal bleeding. Now it's sketchy, more will come out on it, but it's been released. Not it can only happen if the vehicle that Ms. Good was in hit him. But I'm not trying this on television. It's not right to do that.

But you need to know what's surfacing here. So everybody took size. I saw the video. I saw the bull. If it ever gets into a courtroom and it won't, then you'd go frame by frame as I analyzed. And then you'd hear from the ICE agent and then witnesses, whatever. Okay.

But I don't think any of that's going to happen. But if the man does have internal bleeding, that's pretty big. So that's the latest on that. That is a website called Mediaite. It deals with a lot of press stuff. And it's a good website. It used to tilt really far left,

and they brought it back to left center. As a guy who created it, along with a few others, Dan Abrams, Kobe Hall, he writes a column, and a column is pretty good. Enough is enough. It's basically criticizing Donald Trump's overreach as president of the United States. I'll read you a portion here and then we'll bring in Mr. Hall. Quote, what distinguishes the current moment is not the impulse to push boundaries,

but the scale speed and brazenness with which these accumulated precedents are being exploited. Obama used drones and faced criticism, but operated within executive branch legal frameworks. Trump extracts foreign leaders and announces it is a fate of complete. At home, the same logic is playing out through federal law enforcement. ICE agents are defended reflexively before facts are known, before investigations are complete. Oversight is dismissed as obstruction. Questions are treated as a tax. Powers insulated first, examined later.

Unquote. Kobe Hall joins us now from Brooklyn. So the mindset of, of the President of the United States is that his opposition is so entrenched that they don't care about what's good for the country. And so he has to cut through that. So he can't go to Congress and say, I want to remove

Medoro and then Congress votes on it five months later, because no Democrat will ever vote for anything that Trump wants. This is the president's mindset. Do you understand that? I do. I think that's a generous. description, and I'll say, first of all, thanks for having me on. Secondly, I agree with a lot of

what you said during your talking points, right? I find that we're pretty much aligned on a lot of this stuff, especially the concern with sort of Denmark and Greenland, which is remarkably risky on a number of levels, not just politically. My column, Enough is Enough is Enough, was really about how under an executive branch that literally acts without impunity, or with impunity, with zero checks and balances, is acting in a way that really sort of reinforces might makes right, which is a philosophical construct that we long moved past, and it's not really democratic. And the actions of this president reveal a nation

that increasingly doesn't look like the America that I grew up, and I still love very, very much. See, I don't have that perception, and I'm just about 25 miles from you in my dwelling. And when you say that he, Trump operates without constraints, the courts ruled that the president could not send National Guard to L.A. and a few other cities because he didn't reach the bar of impending chaos. So he took him out. Trump took the national guard. So he's, he's been constrained.

It wasn't constitutional. You know, Pasi Comitatis basically says federal government cannot send in troops unless. the governor, the state asked for it because of chaos. And that's what was ruled. He's plotting the democracy or he's flouting the Constitution. But he's obeying. He's not running rough shot. Well, okay, but that's the way it always happens.

Kobe, come on. You take an action and then there's a reaction. It's a way the government always runs. Here's what I would say. You could defend the extraction of Maduro. The sort of way that that was defined is we can do whatever we want with Western Hemisphere because it affects our national security. And we're going to use that as a pretext to now threaten to, you know, sort of bomb Iran and to then just

sort of invade and take Greenland. Like you said, that really threatens and is very risky to our Native alliance. To be clear, and I want to say this, I have given credit to the Trump administration where I feel like they've deserved it. And in particular, I think the way that the Trump administration has handled Iran vis-a-vis Israel was masterful and deserves a great deal of credit. I'm I also give him an incredible amount of credit for the way that it cleaned up the abject horror that is the border. The worst thing that Biden ever did was just look away. And I think one can be for getting bad guys out, cleaning up the border, but also be opposed

to masked ice agents shooting protesters. And I don't think Renee Good should be dead as a result of trying to drive the lawyer. I don't either. But that doesn't mean that doesn't mean that doesn't mean that what the ICE agent did carries any criminal intent. Because I have said, and you know this, deescalate it when you have a life, death situation. And some of my viewers don't like that. They don't want to hear that. Okay.

But every law enforcement agency that I know of has a de-escalation program when life and death is on the line, so I'm behind the law. But Trump is saying, and with absolute validity, I can't bring in Maduro to Congress. I can't bring in nuke bombing in Iran to Congress because they, the other side, hates me so much, they're never going to support it. They'll drag their feet. We can't operate secretly in that regard. We can't do military operations with any kind of effectiveness if you're going to debate him for two months. And he's right. And when Noriega came out, that shattered that.

And that'll never even get into the courts. Maduro is never going to get in. Okay, he'll be convicted in Brooklyn. You should go over and see him. He's right near your house. All right. And then he'll go to the penitentiary in Colorado. And that's what's going to happen.

And there's not going to be any court hearing about Maduro. I don't even think the ICE agent is going to be prosecuted. Now, do you agree with me? that there are 10 states in open rebellion to the United States government because they fail to obey the law. It's okay to protest the law. No problem with that. But when you say, and that's what walls, fry, all these people are saying, I'm not going to obey the law that has been passed by Congress, not Trump.

I'm not obeying it. You're in rebellion, are you not? I think rebellion is a narrative that oversteps considerably. I remember, I'm old enough to remember when states' rights were a big talking point on the right. And now that's gone away, right? Like, suddenly we don't care about states' rights and their ability to make decisions about stuff that now. That's on the issue. If you want, if you want, you are, you are basically making situational decisions, right?

And I, and honestly, previously what you just said, you just walked, you just basically said Trump doesn't want to take Maduro to Congress because he knows he won't get what he wants. I'm sorry, you don't get to pick and choose what the Constitution says. You do if you have national security concerns behind you. Yes, you do. Well, yeah, but that's very subjective. And to say that there was a national security threat by Maduro, what, you know, I think is hyperbole at best. I think it's absurd. Tons and narcotics are coming in here. Far less drugs from other places. Please, let me finish. Look, the whole point in the Constitution, is checks and balances. You can't simply say I'm going to avoid checks and balances if I know that

a congressional check and balance is not going to give me what I want. But you can call me. It perfectly illustrates my point. You can if there's precedent about national security after 9-11, all of that changed. All of it changed. Well, I think, well, so here in lies the gray area of this dialogue, and I appreciate the chance to describe it. I think there's overreach. And I think a lot of people feel that there's overreach. Honestly, in hindsight, I care less about the Maduro extraction because he's clearly a bad guy. And, you know, this is very personal for me because my nephew is on USS Ford. He's a naval intel officer.

And he was very much a part of the whole growler part. And I'm extremely proud of him, but I'm also concerned about it. And so it's a good debate, but I live in a real world and I know what's going to happen. And Trump is not going to lose any of these things at all because of the national security. When it comes to ICE, when it comes to ICE, when it comes to. comes to ICE, only 28% of the people are sort of agreeing with the narrative that the ICE agent was justified in shooting. Well, now if he has injuries, that polling is going to change.

But even if it doesn't change, all right, Trump is basically saying this, and I'll give you the last word on it. My job, I was elected to protect the American people. And I'm going to do it. And I am not going to submit to some theoretical process when I believe I have the authority to take out people like Maduro, the Muller's, people who are threats to this country. And that's his mindset. And the only way you constrain it is the Supreme Court.

That's the only way says no. And the courts, the federal court said no to guard in L.A. and other places, Oregon. All right. And Trump pulled them back. Last word. I think you're being very generous. I don't think a lot of people feel like Mullahs in Iran. pose a direct threat to their lives.

Billions to terror groups? Billions to terror groups? I'm telling you, I think geopolitically, they are a huge threat and they should be extracted. You and I agree largely on the foreign policy there. I'm talking about politically. I don't think a lot of people in Overland Park, Kansas, where I grew up, see that as a perfect threat.

I also think that a lot of people want immigrants who are illegals extracted from our nation, but they don't want to see mass ICE agents invading homes without a search warrant. They don't want to see protests. I'll see that point that ICE has to tighten it up a little bit and has to be more, give more of an explanation. All right, Colby, very good debate, very lively. I want everybody to read your column on media. Thanks to taking time. Okay, Be Good Pins, right? Or I'm Good, whatever I think is Be Good, right? So these are at the Golden Gloves, which the ratings for the

Golden Gloves are catastrophically low. And that was expected, but there are the pins. So I said to my staff, where do these pins come from? You know, I can't like go to CVS and buy them. So they came from the ACLU. Of course they did move on. Other far-left organizations. They sent out blasts on their social media to the far-lift people,

said, hey, we're going to be at certain Golden Globe events. We'll have the pins. You come over, you can get them. That's how it happened. And that's my point. This stuff isn't organic. This stuff is real well organized against ICE and President Trump. All right, so Iran, it's tottering, and we don't have great information

because they blocked out all the Internet and everything like that. But we do know that there are bodies that the Mullets are killing people and the Army, but we don't know exactly. exactly what. And this is a lot like what happened last summer when Trump bombed the nuclear facility inside Iran. Anything could happen at any time. And when I was speaking to the president about this, I said, just me, U.S. military, if you can tip it, I would do it in a heartbeat. But we don't need to have any displays of power. We've already done that. But if you can get them out of there by using military power, I would absolutely do it. They are awful. And they are

still funding terrorism worldwide, Iran. I mean, three billion of Hezbollah in the last year. Three billion. Come on. All right, so we're on this. We're watching it very, very closely. Smart Life. So the way that I raise my kids, was simple. I kept everything simple. As I just challenged the doctor, there was no what-aboutism. There was none of that. Okay, it was like, okay, what's the circumstance? What did you do? Why did you do it? All right? Well, I believe in simple parenting, straightforward parenting, and always telling your children the truth. Always. Even if the truth. hurts. Now there's a survey from the Action Network about lying in America, 3,000 American survey. And it found out that 59% of Americans lie at least once per week. Men lie more than

women. Georgia is the biggest state for lies. Now, I don't believe any of it. Okay? I don't believe Georgia is the biggest lying state because they don't back it up very well, the survey. You see people's opinion. All right, I probably say men would lie more than women. Yeah, I probably believe that. But what's a lie? If you're selling somebody they look nice when they're kind of dubious, I don't think that's a lie.

A lie is an intentional deception to gain advantage. That's a lie. In the commandments, it's bare false witness to hurt somebody. and then you might get an advantage over hurting. That's what a lie is. I think most people do lie when they get in trouble, and some lie for convenience. But I'll tell you what, it's risky.

If I am in the presence of someone who lies, then they're gone. I don't count to that. They're gone out of my life. See you. And I always tell my kids, just do the right thing, then you don't have to lie. And if you don't know what the right thing is, call that. And we'll discuss it. I won't tell you what it is.

I'll lead you there. Okay, we'll discuss it. What is the right thing to do? Because you've got to make those decisions. All of us have to make those decisions every day. What's the right thing to do? A lot of it's hard, complicated. I like the pen paper thing.

So your pros, the cons, but if you do the right thing, even if it's going to inconvenience you, okay, then you don't have to lie. So say the boss comes up and goes, hey, how's your department running? And you know it's not running well. And you go, oh, it's great. That's a lie.

And you're telling it for your advantage. You're trying to prop yourself up. But then the boss, three days later, finds out that it's absolute chaos in your department, then what do you do? Okay? So I don't believe this survey, but I do believe there's way too much lying going on, not only in the United States from the world. All right, here is a final thought of the day.

So we do, I don't know, hundreds, probably hundreds of concierge requests a week, concierge membership, Bill O'Reilly.com. You get a special email. You got a problem. You want more information. whatever you want, we'll try to make your life better. A lot of times we need more information from people writing in. So I'm getting hosed by this one and they're doing this to me.

And the breakdown is that a lot of people, when we say, okay, we're ready to go. We're ready to help you. Send the names and the numbers of the people you've been dealing with who are giving you a hard time. And we'll contact them. About 30% don't, they just don't reply to us. It's so strange. You know, the old adages, the Lord helps those who help themselves. More information you can compile about people doing the wrong thing to you or your family.

The easier it is for us to correct that wrong. Thank you for watching and listening to the No Spin News. See you tomorrow.
