Painful Thoughts. 20 more minutes to kill in the pharmacy before my prescription is ready. Maybe I'll grab some deeply discounted out-of-season Halloween candy. Hmm, I never had a chocolate pumpkin with raisins before. Those were raisins, right? Next time, use Amazon Pharmacy. We deliver. And, no, those were not raisins.

Amazon Pharmacy. Healthcare just got less painful. Well, it didn't take long for massive controversy to break out in America, did it? Pardon me? And that is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. Two presidents using their pardon power. Now, this analysis, I think, will be the most. most fair you get anywhere on earth. So here we go. First, Donald Trump, 1583 people have been

charged in connection with the January 6th, 2021 riot at the Capitol. 700 have been sentenced to prison. 470 cases have not been tried yet. Just two people acquitted. Why? Because is videotape, and anybody entering that Capitol building is guilty of a crime. No extenuating circumstances. You trespass. Okay, so it's not a tough call for a jury or a prosecutor to say plead guilty, but there are extenuating circumstances, which I'm going to get into right now, and this is very important. So Donald Trump, it seems, is pardoned everybody, that's what the White House.gov website says. But I don't think that's true. We're still trying to figure it out. Fourteen people have their senses commuted. There's a

difference. So if you get a pardon, it doesn't overturn your conviction. You still have it on your sheet, but whatever punishment is in play vanishes so you get out of jail. If you get a commutation, that doesn't forgive the crime either. And it doesn't restore any civil rights. A pardon does. So if you get a pardon, then you can vote or you can own a gun. But if you get a commutation, you can't. It's technical, but that's what it is.

Now, there have been some pretty tough people that out of prison on pardons. One of them, the media is honking about is a guy named Julian K-H-A-T-E-R. So he attacked U.S. Capitol police officer Brian Sicknick, all right? And Sidnick died the next day from a stroke. And Sidneyk's family obviously says, look, the reason he's dead is because this guy and others attack him. Now, that's not on the death certificate, but if you're a family member, I'm sure you believe that, right?

Okay, so Catter, the attacker, has been jailed since March 14th, 2021, and he didn't get bailed. So he's been in there, and he was sentenced to 80 months, and he's getting out now because of the pardoned. So you make the call. If it were me and I were President Trump, I would not have pardoned Catter. Violent. Anybody who's attacked the police officer is violent and does have sympathy for me if I'm president? That's me. But again, you make the call.

There's another guy, Henry Enrique Terrio. He is the head of the proud boys' far-right organization. Now, he got the book thrown at him. He wasn't even there. But the FBI had evidence, very strong evidence, that he organized, or at least helped organize, the assault on the Capitol. Okay?

He got 22 years in a federal penitentiary. 22. He's out. Now, I'd have to look at the case. 22 seems very, very harsh to me, even if you are an insurrectionist, because that's insurrection. All right? What Terry was convicted of doing, and I believe it's true, is absolutely trying to overthrow the government in the United States. So, he's out. Now, extenuating circumstances. circumstances. This is fascinating. Many of the U.S. attorneys that prosecuted these cases knew that the people who invaded the Capitol could not afford to litigate these cases. They didn't have any money. You want to go up against the federal government. You better have a million dollars

to pay your lawyers and all the other court fees. One million. Minimum. These people didn't have the money. And we're talking about bill bill just milling around, going in and out of windows, that kind of thing. They couldn't do it. So the prosecutor would come in and say, look, you plead guilty to press pass or criminal mischief or whatever it may be. We'll drop the other serious charges and you'll get your punishment. But if you bleed not guilty, we're taking it to the max and you're being charged with really heavy felonies. That's what happened in many, perhaps most of these cases. Media has not reported that. I have looked at it. That is what happened. That is not equal justice for all. The violation of our Constitution. Because the U.S. attorneys

knew these people could not afford to defend themselves against the heavy felonies. They got them to plead down so they got a conviction. It's wrong. I'm President Trump. Those cases, I'm pardoning them. Not justifying what they did. Now I think that Donald Trump should tell the American people exactly what I just told you right now. He's not going to agree with me about the people who attacked the police officers.

I don't think he would agree with that. But that's okay. I mean, I voted for Donald Trump, but I don't support everything he does, and you shouldn't either. He's a human being, and he's a powerful man, and everything he does, he should be evaluated in a fair lens. But what has not been reported is the absolute ferocity that the Biden Justice Department used to convict these people.

Now, the what about people go, oh, the BLM protests and after George Floyd, that was state beefs, excuse me, state beefs, different from Fed. I don't think the Biden administration would have gone after anybody, but that's just my opinion. There was a case in Portland, Oregon, where Antifa attacked the federal building, but it's nebulous. So there's no what about. What is true is President Biden wanted to throw the book at all of these people. And so did Merrick Garland, the Attorney General, on those were the orders. Get them.

Now, because they were all Trump supporters, Donald Trump has sympathy for them. That makes sense. Is all of this make sense to you? Okay. So, sum it up for Trump. I wouldn't pardon or commute any sentence involving violence against police officers. Donald Trump did. But the vast majority of other cases did have extenuating circumstances that I just explained.

and those people should get mercy. And I'm glad they did. Joe Biden. Okay. So in addition to pardoning his son Hunter, who the House Oversight Committee says got at least $7.5 million from foreign entities. He's now pardoned President Biden has.

his whole family except for his wife and daughters. They are James Biden, a brother, James's wife, Sarah, Joe's younger sister, Valerie, her husband, and Joe's other brother, Francis Biden. What does this say? It says that all these people got what they mob calls a taste of the money coming into the Biden family from foreign countries and individuals. That's what it says. Why else would they be considered? Now, this happened 20 minutes before Biden left office. Why? Because everybody knows what this is.

It's a continuation of the grift. Now, last night I was on News Nation talking about this, rolling. Just before he walked out of the White House, Biden pardoned his family, everybody but Jill. Right. Okay. If I'm President Trump, I ask the Attorney General, Bondi, to appoint a special counsel to investigate the Biden family, even though a full pardon is on the books. Because the American people have a right to know whether there was graft and corruption at the vice presidential level and the president. level. That's what I do. Would you oppose that? Yeah, all right, absolutely oppose it. And I think it would be really funny if

Pam Bondi picked a special counsel that wasn't someone who was already working at the DOJ and see if the Republicans got upset about the way they did with Jack Smith. All right, so Cuomo and many other Americans, probably the majority on the left, don't want to know. They don't want to know if Joe Biden himself took money. And What happened with the family distribution of funds from overseas? They don't care. I care. I think you care.

But if you don't care, I want you to write me and tell me why. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com. Bill at Bill O'Reilly. I got an email today from a far-left acquaintance of mine, and he's railing. He doesn't want to. know. Now, sorry, but graft, bribery, money changing ends at the vice presidential or presidential level, you got to know. Well, you don't have a country anymore, as Donald Trump would say. You got to know. 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.

We're trying to get Comer on. He's got a book. And I'm optimistic. We'll get him on this week. But he didn't have it. He couldn't get it. That Biden himself had money. Because if Biden got paid from Hunter or anybody else, Jim, like that, he didn't put it on his income tax. And that's a felony. Now, Biden can't pardon himself. Okay. So Biden's still hanging out

there, the president, but his family, but it doesn't matter. We need to know, even if they can't be punished. January 6th, this is amazing. Okay, so Biden pardoned the members of the committee, which tried to crucify Donald Trump. All right, those members are Benny Thompson. These are all Congresspeople. Liz Cheney, Adam Kisinger, Adam Schiff, Zoe Lofgren, Pete Aguilar, Stephanie Murphy, Jamie Raskin, Elaine, Luriam. Okay. So they're all pardoned. Why? Well, Trump said something that I didn't know yesterday. Go. By pardoning all of those people that he pardoned by pardoning J6, the unselect committee, they destroyed all of the documents. They deleted all of the information, there's no information.

And a lot of the information pertains to Nancy Pelosi because she was given 100, I mean, you know this, it's on tape with her daughter. Nancy Pelosi was responsible for not taking advantage of 10,000 soldiers or 1,000. I was talking about the National Guard that he put on alert, Trump put on alert the night before January 6th.

So Trump is basically saying the J6 committee destroyed documents, that's a felony. U.S. Code 1519. If those committee members, those congresspeople, destroyed evidence, it's a crime. I didn't know that. I didn't know that was the accusation that they destroyed evidence. I knew that Liz Cheney conferred with a woman named Cassidy Hutchinson, who lied her butt off, in my opinion. And I could be wrong, but from what I know, anyway, I know Cheney secretly met with her,

and there's all kinds of stuff there. But anyway, that's why that pardon was given to the J6th people in Congress. So, summing up, two controversial pardons. I think I've covered this as fair as any human being on earth. If you don't think so, Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, name and town. Let's get another point of view on this. Dr. Robert Copman teaches at Pepperdine University, Public Policy. If you haven't been out to Pepperdine in Malibu, it didn't get hurt the doctor with someone before the interview today in a fire, but it's close.

It is the best-looking campus in America, Pepperdine. The second best is Salvei Regina in Newport, Rhode Island. Anyway, I like Pepperdine. I've always liked the spirit there. It's not a far-left crazy place. You get a fair cut if you attend Pepperdine. Anyway, Doctor, you've been watching this policy stuff. Let's go with the J6 people first.

President has not explained it. Maybe by air time, because we take this a few hours before it airs. He will. But at this point, I'd like to hear from him. Do you know why he might have part in those violent people? In this case, I think the president took a decent, defensible instinct too far by not making a reasonable distinction between violent and nonviolent, and particularly seven of those at least committed violence against police officers.

That's indefensible. President Trump's a victim of the weaponization of the justice system. Many of the people who were brought to trial were brought to trial unfairly in circumstances where the government deliberately chose a jurisdiction the way they did with Trump knowing that they were gonna get indictments, convictions,

and bankrupt many of these people. Right. So President Trump has a, has a defensible point. For many of the 1600, he did give clemency to or pardon. It is indefensible, however, and I don't think you can't explain it, to pardon those who perpetrated violence. It's disappointing because a few days ago, Vice President J.D. Vantt said that any type of pardon would make distinction between violent. Right. And Pam Bondi, the new Attorney General, said the same thing. But Trump is an emotional guy, and that's what he does. And he didn't look at

all the jackets of the 1,700 people involved in his J6 prosecution. But he had to know, and this is the key to Donald Trump. He had to know that by pardoning people who attack him, he had to know that by pardoning people who attack police officers, that was going to raise holy hell. Had to know it. And he did it anyway. And that's the mystery. Why? Do you have any theory on it?

Well, I've always said that Donald Trump and Richard Nixon share many characteristics, including underrated talent. And one of Nixon's problems, I assisted him in writing his final book, and he was very candid. He's put this in his books, is that sometimes he was at his worst, not during the battle, but after winning a victory,

and he had what Churchill would call a magnanimity deficit. And I understand that President Trump, who's been under unfair, continuous assault since the time the networks announced his first victory, has the instinct that he promised these people, that he was going to let them out. He was fulfilling a campaign promise. And I think he also knew that he was going to stick it in the eye of many people by doing it,

not doing it per se, but going too far. And there's one more component. He's not going to pay a political price for it because you don't have to run again. No. So this is Donald Trump being Donald Trump. Yeah. But he calculates things out, but he goes, look, this is going to pass fast, and it will. And it will. The big thing is immigration. The big thing is the economy. I'm going to get that up and running. So I said I was going to do this. But he didn't, he could have not done it. And so when I talk to him next, if that's, I don't know whether it'll ever be, but I'm going to say, what was that all about? And maybe I'll get an answer. Maybe I won't.

All right, let's go to Joe Biden. So when you read that he pardoned his family members, what was the first thing you thought of? I thought of the stark difference between the first time I met you and what Joe Biden did to Biden's shame. You don't remember I do. The first time I met you was in the Fox studio as I was about to do commentary on the death of Gerald Ford. And Gerald Ford gave Richard Nixon a pardon, a preemptive pardon, which is what Biden did for his family. really at the cost of his political career, and really to save the country turmoil and trauma and to preserve the founding father's wish that we distinguish between political difference and the criminalization of political behavior. In other words, what Ford did, which was unusual,

was done for the noblest of motives. And I agree with that 100%. I mean, and what, and conversely, what President Biden did was for the most ignomal of motives. It was to protect him and his family and those who acted illegally from scrutiny, going all the way back to 2014. A preemptive pardon should be the exception rather than the rule and should be for a public purpose rather than to protect a crime syndicate. And unfortunately, President Biden, who had a very sad presidency because of its failure, really left in shame. And Bill, when you said that President Trump calculates, I agree.

And I also think President Trump calculated that President Biden's really deplorable preemptive pardons in extent and scope gave the president a lot more relayed to. do what he did in the news cycle. Yeah, because he punted it over Biden's worst, but that doesn't help the country. And that's my main focus here. No, it doesn't help the country. It's an explanation. Let's all do the right thing, right?

But you asked originally, what was President Trump thinking? I think President Trump thinking. I can get, yeah, I can get away with it. I can get away with it. Because Biden's worse, right. That's right. Now, I'm going to have Comer on tomorrow, the congressman who's, you know, leading the Biden investigations. And he is, he's got a new book out

and he says he's going to continue the investigations. Okay, that's good, I think. And in history, we want to know if a vice president or a president, in this case Biden held both offices, took bribes. That's what this is all about. We cut through all the BS. It's about taking bribes. And his family members, it looks like, received money for nothing, as dire straits once sang, money for nothing because he was vice president and he was president. And so millions of dollars came in and they all cut it up and they all put it in their pocket. All right, well, that's illegal. That's selling influence. You can't do it. But the big one is, did Joe Biden himself take money. And that has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt at this point. Would

you agree? I agree, but I also think there's a silver lining in this, including with General Millie, who, in my view, committed treason by telling the Chinese that he would intervene in the event President Trump exercised his duty as commander-in-chief. And the silver lining is, because these people are pardoned, that pardons all past defenses, but they don't get the right to plead the Fifth Amendment. If they are called into Congress and Comer should call them in every one of them. And that means you can call people in and ask them, what did you do? And they don't have the right to plead the Fifth Amendment. So I think the likely consequence is not convictions, but it may illuminate to the country how sordid things were and and and i hope it does we need that we can't have these

people doing this ironically because these people no longer complete the fifth amendment we actually are going to learn more this way than probably we would have learned otherwise given now they are going to be tried in the court of public opinion that's right but you got to know that 50 percent of the country doesn't care you can care what they it. I mean, that's just the way it is. But I care because I want history to reflect accurately on who held offices. Hey, doctor, always good to talk to you. We really appreciate your time. It's a pleasure and an honor to be on. Thanks for having me. Sure. Cheers. Donald Trump, executive order designating the drug cartels of Mexico terrorists. Quote, the cartels

activities threaten the safety of American people, security of the United States, stability of the international order in Western Hemisphere. Their activities, proximity to, and incursions into the physical territory of the United States pose an unacceptable national security risk to the United States. Executive order signed yesterday. Now, on October 14, 2021, I've never reported this before, but I will now. I had dinner with Donald Trump, and we discussed this executive order. Yes, me? Would you do it? I said, absolutely. in a heartbeat. Firestone Complete AutoCare's great big tire cell is here,

Donald Trump also shut down the Border Patrol app where migrants were getting appointments to apply for asylum. That has gone dark. No more of that. No more catch and release.

Joining us now from Washington, D.C., is our go-to guy on Immigration Matters, Stephen Camerata. He's a director of research for the Center for Immigration Studies. What is the most important thing that Donald Trump did yesterday in the executive orders vis-a-vis migration? well i think first of i'd say the tone right he's letting everybody know the immigration laws back in business we're not going to be releasing people at the border i mean there were several things that he signed some obviously are just going to get stuck in the courts very quick like an end-to-birthright citizenship others can have some impact on supporting the border patrol like is use of the military though it's

not clear how much more that's going to matter than what the national guards are already doing at the border, but other things like, as you mentioned, getting rid of the CBP1 app, which is allowing people from certain countries to schedule a hearing. These are not individuals who have a Korean card. These are not individuals have any other legal right to come in, but they're just using it to parole these individuals into the United States with the possibility some way down the road of getting asylum, though as far as we can tell, most don't apply. We think we've let in 400,000 people that way. So this program, CNHV it's called, because it applies to Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Venezuela, this program, he shut it down and that whole system of using

that app. He's also tried to side executive order dealing with a reinstating remain in Mexico, which is a way of preventing people from just coming to the border and applying for asylum, knowing the system is overwhelmed and being released in the United States. Right, which was insane. So now they have way to Mexico, which was the policy of last year of his first term. How important is the executive order designating the cartels, which of course are smuggling tons of narcotics and they are people smugglers as well into the USA? How important, in your opinion, Stephen, is that executive order? Well, certainly the first time anyone's ever done that. I think time will tell if it has, if it really makes an impact. But we know the cartels are involved in smuggling and human trafficking,

So if we can go after them more effectively because of this, that could have an impact. We'll have to see. I mean, they're very powerful, very rich. And we have limits on what we could do to them in Mexico without greatly angering Mexico. And in terms of cooperation on migration, greatly angering Mexico may be a problem. But I think, I mean, I'm just not sure, Bill. I have to be totally honest. Let me mention another thing he did.

He's basically put the refugee settlement program on hold to give it an up to down, top to bottom, if you will, review. So that was over 100,000 new people coming in each year. And so that's another big change. And I think that was another thing that he did was very wise. What Trump has done is added bureaucracy to people coming in here. Sometimes that's unfair as with Afghanistan. But that's what he's done. I believe the terror order will ultimately lead to the destruction of the cartels if Donald Trump executes it, pardon the pun, the way he did with the terrorists in the Middle East.

Because now we don't have to consult with Mexico City. We'd be foolish to because so many of those people are on the take. They've been bribed by the cartels. They tip them off for any criminal raid or anything like that. So from the space, you isolate a cartel, leader, or members, and boom, the drone just wipes them off the face of the area. That's going to send a lot of fear into those criminal precincts. Final question. Have you ever reached the conclusion about why President Biden opened that border that led to so much pain for this country?

Right. So just to remind your listeners, he released at least purposely, as a matter of policy, seven million people caught at the border. we think that the number of people we saw going through and didn't stop was about two million, maybe more during his administration, and that's on top of people we didn't see sneak in. So this was totally unprecedented. You want to know why he allowed this to happen. In fact, he adopted policies that greatly facilitated.

The short answer is probably maybe he wasn't that aware. I mean, I think that people who are very... And why the people behind him do it? There's got to be a reason why they did it. Right. And the reason I think they do it is, at its core, they see restrictions on immigration into the United States as motivated by racism and ethnic animus. And ipso facto, the borders kind of illegitimate. Now, they'll pay live service.

They'll send some people back. But someone like Mayorkas is just fundamentally hostile, if you will, seemingly to America's sovereignty. That's the only way to explain this crazy policy. Far left progressive nonsense. Steven, thanks very much, as always. We really appreciate it. Senate has approved the Lake and Riley Act. That says that the Department of Homeland Security can detain

foreign nationals arrested in this country for burglary, theft, larceny, shoplifting, or assault on a law enforcement officer or anybody else. Okay? That's what it says. So you don't have to be convicted. You're arrested. it. Now, if the states don't cooperate with Department of Homeland Security after the arrests are made in the individual states, then the federal government can take sanctions against them,

and individuals can too. All right? So this basically removes any protections for sanctuary cities and states. And it was approved by the Senate 6435, now goes back to the House to tweak it, will pass, Trump will sign it. But here are some of the senators that voted against this, who want criminal aliens not to be handed over to the federal government. Blumenthal, Connecticut, Duckworth, Illinois, Durbin, Illinois, Gillibrand, New York, Corona, Hawaii, Angus King, I can't believe it, Maine, Sanders, Vermont, of course, Schiff, California, Schumer, New York, Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts, Children, White House, Rhode Island.

All right. Now, how can you vote for those people? How could any American vote for them? Jeez. Lake and Riley, of course, murdered, 22 years old. It was at a University of Georgia and a guy who allegedly did it, he did it, gang member from Venezuela. God. Tick-Tock. I don't care about Tick-Tock, but millions of Americans do. So TikTok's run by the Chinese government. We all know that. They accumulate information about people on using TikTok. And now the Supreme Court says, hey, the United States can outlaw that. It's a security issue. But Trump has a different take on it.

Go. I think the U.S. should be entitled to get half of TikTok. And congratulations, TikTok as a good partner. and that would be worth. You know, it could be $500 billion or something. It's crazy. The numbers are crazy. But it's worthless if I don't.

If the president doesn't sign, then it's worthless. All right, so it's 75 days that Donald Trump has a decision to make, whether to outlaw TikTok because it's run by the Chinese communist, or to make a deal where the United States controls 50% of TikTok. And the Chinese government's out. That's what Trump's angling for. He wants some money. Now, I hope the money would be used to pay down our debt.

Okay, so that's what that's all about. And now let's go to our daily media madness segment. No shortage. CNN laying off 200 people, 6% of its staff. Why? Because they're losing hundreds of millions of dollars, because nobody watches them. Now, karma, you know, yeah, I believe it. CNN, you know, MSNBC, they're not a legitimate anything.

And NBC News is just crazy to have allowed that. But CNN at one time was a very positive thing for this war. And to see it destroyed the way it has been, and it's self-destruction, boy, NBC News also making cuts, and that'll continue. Spare bones over there now. Cutting salaries all over the place.

smart life governor hokel in new york proposing a law that would ban cell phones and schools what they call bell to bell when it starts when it ends i support this law all right for governor hokle right on get this done um but then she puts a 14 million dollar price tag on the law. What is that? You don't need to do that. The local people in New York fund the schools. I pay an enormous amount of school's tax. You don't need to add another 14 million into this governor. And that's what you do. It's spending, spend and spend in highest taxed state and union. But these kids in school now, they can't concentrate because of the cell phones. And that's going to destroy their potential. You have to be a

able to listen and absorb information. And you can't if you're addicted to the cell phone. I know with my own kids. I know. I see it. And they're young adults now. They're both addicted. Both of them. And they cannot concentrate when that phone is in their hand. They can't. And they're brilliant kids. This has got to be a national law. No cell phone. phones during school classes.
