We vote in three and a half months. Isn't that interesting? Three and a half months will be at the end. That's just going to whizz by. Summer always does. And another big thing will happen. I know a lot of you have written me about my predictions that big things were going to happen.

They have, the debate meltdown, and the attempted assassination Donald Trump, something else will as well. I think it's, I feel it my guts, no idea what, but it's not going to be a smooth sale between now and election day. Deceit is a subject of this evening's talking points memo. Here is the definition of deceit. The act of causing someone to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid. And Americans are getting deceived in two areas right now, politics and the media. It's always been that way in politics, always, since John Adams versus Thomas Jefferson. Washington didn't have to worry about it because he was president, nobody ran against it for two terms.

But then Adams was against Jefferson and the mud flew and deceit was everywhere. and then since that time, we have had that in every campaign. So that's not surprising. The media deceit, been there somewhat, but not to the extent where most media is deceitful. And that's where we are today. So the American citizen, a person, a hardworking person, going to try to make a good living for his family, you know, stretched out to the limit, is trying to pick up what, really is happening and it is a thousand times harder now with the internet than it was 25 years ago because this deceivers are not held to account you can lie your butt off every single day

and they'll still pay you a check and we will get into that now last night um there wasn't presidential interview Biden and NBC's Lester Holt. Okay. There was some deception. Roll the tape. Have you taken a step back and done a little soul searching on things that you may have said that could incite people who are not balanced? Well, I don't think, look, how do you talk about the threat to democracy, which is real, when a president says things like he says. do you just not say anything because I may incite somebody look I I have not engaged in that rhetoric oh I have not engaged in that rhetoric roll the tape and then I pointed out but the only convicted criminal on the stage last night was Donald Trump when I thought about his

34 felony convictions, his sexual assault and a woman in a public place, is being fined $400 million for business fraud. I thought to myself, Donald Trump isn't just a convicted felon, Donald Trump is a one-man crime wave. Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation. He's a threat to our freedom. He's a threat to our democracy. He's literally a threat where everything America stands for.

So, yeah, the president does not indulge in inciting when he speaks. Now, Joe Biden believes he doesn't do that kind of rhetoric, because Joe Biden does not literally know what he is saying or doing. And the second thing is he doesn't care. Remember, Joe Biden said for three years that the southern border was secure. Did he care that it wasn't secure? Not one wit. And then when the political opposition got so intense,

then all of a sudden he cared and he came up with legislation. Well, what happened to the border is secure? I've told you this before. When researching confronting the presidents and we run down all 45, how they helped or hurt the nation, I have never seen in any of them a more apathetic president than Joe Biden. They might have something to do with his mental decline, but he simply does not care. So he'll sit there and tell Lester Holt, I don't engage in that kind of rhetoric, when it's just a lie.

But it's a provable lie. Now, Holt doesn't follow up, okay? And in a number of things, Holt asked the right question. but then when Biden misdirected the answers, Holt didn't come back at him. You know, Mike Wallace, who was the best interviewer of all time on television. I just can't imagine him watching when it's gone on here in this country for the last 15 years. And Lester Holt, I work with him. He's an honest man.

Maybe he's just not up to it. I don't know. But if I'm sitting there where Lester was last night, Do you think I let that go? Threat to democracy? I'm an American. All right? I run corporations.

I have property. I have children. I'm not feeling the threat to democracy here. Maybe I'm dumb. Maybe I just dense. I'm not feeling that. I didn't feel it in four years. I don't agree with everything Donald Trump does.

And particularly, I don't agree with everything he says or the way he says. You know that. Did I feel that my freedom was in jeopardy because Trump was president? No. I feel that my freedom's in jeopardy when the Justice Department arrests and prosecutes any American for political purposes. That's what I feel. Okay. So you're being deceived by the president of the United States.

And you can make an argument that Donald Trump has deceived. you in times as well. You can make that argument. But it's not nearly at the level of Biden, not nearly at the level. So when he gets out there and he says on NBC News, last night and prime time, I don't do inciting. I don't do that kind of rhetoric. And I just plagued you. I could have played you 30 clips instead of two. And that's a memo. So Donald Trump's at the convention walking, you all know that, a very emotional night for him. He was crying just about. And the reason he was, and I know this because of my research of killing Reagan, where Reagan came within an inch and a half of being killed,

Trump came within a quarter of an inch of being killed. When that happens to you, and there has. have been a number of times where my life was, you know, you get emotional, okay? And particularly when you're thinking about it, in the moment, the adrenaline flows and you react, hopefully you react in a positive way. But afterward, you know, you're almost dead. That's what Trump is feeling this week. Now, I don't know how that is going to affect his speech on Thursday night. He has a chance. If he's humble and says, well, I, you know, overreach sometimes in my rhetoric, I'm going to try not to do that again, he wins. Because Biden will never do that.

Neither man is on the record of ever admitting a mistake. We can't find either man on the record admitting an error. But if Trump were to say, and he doesn't have to dwell on it, you know, I learned a lot. And we got to tamp down his hate, and I'm going to try to be more measured and precise in my comments. He'd win. 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,

I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist and the host of the brand-new-podcast, Podforce 1. Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, lawmakers and even the President of the United States. These are the leaders

shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce 1 with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. J.D. Vance. Don't know him. He is at the far right of the VP spectrum, a most conservative man that was being considered. We got quite the resume. I'll tell you, Marine Corps, he's over in Iraq, Ohio State U, Yale Law School, huge bestseller, Hillbilly, Elogy, married, three children, young children. converted to Catholicism, he's been busy, J.D. Vance. So was I surprised when he was selected by Donald Trump? No. I wasn't. Because Trump looks

at things a little bit differently than I do. Certainly, I would have chosen a vice president that might have helped me achieve votes. All right, so Nikki Haley would have done that. And Trump doesn't trust her, and I understand the dynamic there. Marco Rubio would have done that with Hispanic voters. And I like Rubio's foreign policy expertise as well. He probably would have been my choice if Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the governor of Arkansas, I didn't want it. She would have been my first choice.

So I don't believe that Senator Vance is going to bring any votes into the Trump precinct. It could be wrong. They're going to dispatch Vance to Michigan and to Pennsylvania. western pennsylvania try to gin up the working class vote and he's good at that the problem with vance is that he's an isolationist and doesn't really have a sophisticated view of uh foreign policy let me back that up okay because that's what we always do here will the tape vladimir putin is not adolf hitler doesn't mean he's a good guy but he has significantly less capability than the german leader did in the late 1930s america

is not America of the late 1930s or the early 1940s. So as you know, Senator Vance has been opposed to aid to Ukraine, and he's not, they want to get involved there. So when he says that Putin does not have, has less capability than Hitler, that's wrong. Of course that's wrong. Because Putin has he atomic bomb. He has atomic weapons. he can obliterate the earth. I mean, he'll want to do, but he didn't have them.

So that's number one. Number two, I'd like to debate Senator Vance on his vision for Ukraine. You just let it go? You let Putin march in, take it? Is that what you want to do? Because that's what would happen if the U.S. and NATO didn't supply the weaponry and money to fend off Putin. And the third point is that Putin is very much weaker than he was when he's

started this insane war two years ago. I mean, we're talking quarter of a million casualties, Russian casualties in this war. You think those people in Russia are happy about that? They're not. Economy's taking a hit. Worldwide pariah. Rich oligarchs can't go anywhere. Can't leave Russia. They won't accept them. So, you know, Vance is entitled to his opinion. He wants to be an isolationist. Okay, but I'd like to see a really robust debate on that. I don't know where Trump is on Ukraine because Trump has avoided the issue, almost entirely. I do know Putin wants Trump to win because after Trump was shot, Putin blamed it on Biden. You picked that up?

Russian press blamed it on Biden. That was the signal. Putin wants Trump to win. But Trump contained Putin. But that may not be a bad thing. I don't know. All right, let's bring in a guy who knows the media almost as well as I do. Bernie Goldberg.

He just had an operation. I think they amputated his leg. But Bernie wanted to. Hey, hey, hey. He wanted to be on. And I got his doctor's note that says he can go on. He, of course, is the purveyor of bernardgoberg.com, which I have been following, because you've got some very lively stuff on that website,

in Ardgoburg.com, so we're pleased to have you. So am I crazy to go after NBC News for what they do? No, you're not crazy at all about it. You may be crazy, but not for that reason. What's most interesting about that, from my point of view, is not simply that Joy Reid thinks everybody's a racist, or Joe Scarborough pontificates as if he's a scholar, and they call everybody a Nazi who's not a progressive.

What's most troubling, Bill, is that they're allowed to do that, is that people who wear suits and ties and have titles of chief executive officer and titles like that and have public companies that Wall Street keeps an eye on, they don't care. They don't care. Because if they care, they'd say something. they'd not only take them off the morning after the shooting or the yesterday morning, they'd do something longer term about that and simply say you're allowed to have a progressive view,

you're allowed to not like Donald Trump, but you're not allowed to cross the line because words matter. That's right. You know, I let it call them a racist or a Nazi or any of this, unless you're making a historical point. But it's worse than them allowing it. They recruit it. Comcast NBC recruits these people and pays them well to spout this hate. Now, people come back to me when I say this, they go, what about Fox News? And I'm going, if you look at the rundown of Fox News, you don't have many people using ad hominem attacks over there.

There are a few. Gutfeld goes up to the line, but Gutfeld says he's a satirist. it's a comedy thing. It's like Colbert. But when you go down the list, yeah, their bias is apparent. Okay, Fox News bias is apparent. But they're not calling people racist and Nazis and really getting into the fabric and trying to destroy human beings, which is what the progressive left loves to do. They want to destroy you, not just beat you in the debate.

go but but but nor is spox criticizing crazy people on the hard right who say joe biden ordered ordered the attempted assassination on don't they're marginal people they look the other way when when people i don't know about i did it yesterday i i ran it yesterday the real far right cooks i had up here and i and i played a montage but would i cover them no And the reason is, they don't mean anything. They don't have a big corporation behind them, like Disney and the View. They don't have that. They're in their basement.

There's a big difference. No, no, no. They're members of Congress. It's one thing when the village idiot comes up with some crazy conspiracy because he's a village idiot. But when the village idiot is a member of Congress, a legitimate news organization calls him out for saying that. And Fox is very good. very good at pointing out everything wrong with the left. And I mean they're very good at that.

But they sort of shrug their shoulders or ignore when the crazy stuff comes from the right. Let me make another point if I might, Bill, because you're a historian who's written about books about history. We have no sense of history in this country. If we had a sense of history, we would remember what happened in Dallas when JFK was was vilified, vilified as a communist as someone who hated America

and then he gets killed in Dallas. We have no sense of history about what happened in Memphis. Martin Luther King was portrayed as someone who hated white people, who hated America. And then James Earl Ray killed him in Memphis. So

when you call Donald Trump a Nazi, when you call him Hitler, and by By the way, it's not the, it's the mainstream left that's calling him these names. Right. It's the new republic. It's not the, the new, if the fringe does it, they're the fringe, right. But the new republic was a respected magazine for over 100 years, and they put a cover of Hitler

morphed into Donald Trump on the cover. The Washington Post and other big newspapers run op-eds from scholars, liberal scholars, making comparisons to Trump and Hitler. Well, who knows what motivated this 20-year-old guy? We don't know. We may never know. Look, it's rage. But we do know this.

We do know this. You call somebody Hitler long enough. Don't be shocked when they try to kill Hitler. All of the assassins and attempted assassins in American history had one thing in common. That was rage, R-A-G-E. And that precludes ideology. All right. I have one more topic.

I want to get to you. So Lester Holt, our very professional, man, good reporter. When he interviews somebody like Biden, he doesn't have the backup to challenge. Am I wrong? No, but I'm going to be a little understanding, if that's the right word. It's not easy, you know this better than anybody. It's not easy doing live interviews or live to tape interviews with no edits. And you can't catch everything.

Now, what you said earlier in this program, what you would have said as a follow-up is absolutely correct, 100% correct. You say, Mr. President, you just said that you don't do that, but you do. If Lester Holt didn't do that, I don't think it was because of any bias. I don't think it was because he was covering for Joe Biden.

He just didn't do it. You were right, but I'm not going to go as hard on Lester Holt as you did. All right. But the bigger picture is, Mike, Wallace would have done it. Okay? The pros, like you and I, we came up. We were trained. We just don't ask. You have to have follow-up anticipating that Biden's going to deny that he uses it. And they don't have it. It's not just Lester. None of them. They had no backup. All right, Bernie Goldberg, everybody. Bernardberg.org.com.

All right, I hope the wound heals fast. I had an operation on my foot. My leg is still there, Bill. My leg, don't tell people they amputate in my leg. Well, I thought somebody might put up a go-fund me for you or something. I was trying to help you out. Wait a second. That's a good idea.

All right. We'll see you soon. Bernie, thank you. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays.

So we asked our pal Monica Crowley, who is at the convention, to be our eyes and ears. and she joins us now from the floor someplace, right? Where are you? You're a brewery in Milwaukee or where are you? No, no. Hi, hi from Milwaukee, not a brewery, but Meteor Roe.

Meteor Roe. Okay, it was very nice of you because I know you're in great demand. Everybody wants your attention. Thanks for talking to us. Right off the bat, what has struck you, what is number one in Monica Crowley's mind about the convention so far? Well, you know, Bill, I've been to several Republican conventions, not as many as you, but I've been to several, and this one is just by magnitude so much different, and different meaning electric. I think the events of Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening, and Pennsylvania changed everything.

And they certainly scrambled the political calculus for all sides, but this convention is happening at a time when people have greater. appreciation for Donald Trump and the leader that he is. So the energy in the convention center, the energy all around in Milwaukee is absolutely electric. I've never seen anything like this before. I've never experienced anything like this before. And the kind of unity in the party, we used to have the never Trumpers and we had others that just sort of disregarded President Trump or didn't agree with him and we're thinking to undermine his chances. All of that is now gone. And this party is completely unified behind this president. And there's a real sense of, and you and I've talked about this before, there is a real sense of absolute love for this man. And I've said this from

the beginning that the bond that Donald Trump has with his voters is not political. It's not ideological. It is emotional. And after the events of Saturday, that emotional bond bill is absolutely unbreakable. So when he came out on Monday night, wearing the bandage over his ear, for the first time looking human rather than superhuman, there was not a dry eye in the house. Everybody had tears rolling down their eyes. And in fact, President Trump looked extremely moved as well, and you never see that out of him. So the emotional dimension to this is something I've never seen before and makes this convention very different. Okay, so I agree that's accurate in that 90% of Republicans will unify and vote for Donald Trump.

They never Trump or movement is done. It's finished. That's not coming back. When you listen to the speakers, I mean Ramoswame, the whole crew, doesn't get a little numbing. I'm not picking on anybody, but isn't a lot of the same stuff? Well, every night has its theme, Make America Strong Again, Make America Wealthy Again. And the final night, tomorrow night will be Make America Great Again, featuring President Trump and his acceptance speech. You know, when you're steeped in policy like you and I are a bill,

sometimes you can kind of tune it out because you've heard it a million times before and you know it like the back of your hands. But I think, again, this year is different because of the America First Movement, which President Trump really started back in 2015. So a lot of people are looking, not just to the vice presidential nominee, J.D. Vance, to be carrying the flag forward because President Trump can only serve one term. So they're looking at all of the voices like Vivek, like Governor DeSantis, like perhaps Nikki Haley. They're judging them now differently. So when they hear the policy speeches, maybe they're kind of tuning out the policy, but they're paying attention to the personality. You know, how much of America first are you really? Can we trust you going forward?

Are you going to be a viable candidate going forward for MAGA? Because this whole party is now something totally different. This is no longer the establishment GOP. I don't think most of the Republican Party are MAGA. I think it's probably 50-50. I disagree with you. I got to stop you there, Bill. I love you, but I got to stop you.

I don't think that's true. I think this is Donald Trump's party. this is an America First Party. I think the GOP establishment still exists, but it's on its last legs. And I think the vast majority, I would say if I'd put a number on it, 75, 80% of the Republican Party is now America First.

Let me challenge. I think you're wrong because 50% of the Republican Party supports Donald Trump's, 90% of the Republican Party supports Donald Trump's policies. But there is a significant, minority, non-Maga people, that when Mr. Trump makes a rhetorical mistake, they don't like it. Well, they might disagree with it or they might be offended by it or something, but in the end, I think there is a vast recognition that this party is now MAGA. This is America First. I can tell you because, and you have your ear to the ground, too, with the Republican base, there is no way they're ever going back to an establishment candidate.

No more John McCain's, no more Jim Bushes, no more George W. Bushes, no more Mitt Romney's. You know, when you take the person off the farm and show them the big city, they're not going back to the farm. I would agree that a populist. There's a populist movement within the Republican Party because some of the other Republicans in the past have really not accomplished what the cultural aspect of the MAGA movement is. they don't want woke they don't want all this stuff and those people like romney they avoided that okay um i i'm very curious about idaho you you have been what a summer for you i was trying to buy monica dinner i've been trying to buy monica dinner for three months because she's been so generous to us and i can't because she's always flitting around with the swells so you go to sun valley Idaho, the wealthy people, talking about establishment, you're right in the middle of all those

pinheads, okay? Tell the audience who's never going to get invited to that. I'll never get invited to it. What goes on there at this conference in Idaho? So you're referring to the Allen & Company Conference, which is an annual conference in Sun Valley, Idaho. Allen & Company is a small boutique investment firm that handles a lot of big deals, mostly legacy media deals, but now they're into big tech as well. I do not get invited my significant other gifts invited, so I go with him, but it is incredible because the guest list is not to be believed.

It's all the world's most villainous globalist, Bill. It's Bill Gates, it's Mark Zuckerberg, it's Tim Cook of Apple, it's the head of Disney, Bob Iger. And the guest list has been published, but the rest of the meetings are off the record, so I can't tell you exactly what is said, But I can tell you that a lot of deals go down there between legacy media and big tech and the rest. The only one...

Business deals, right? Money. Business deals, right? Business deals. Yes. Okay. Yes. Although I will say that last year, I saw Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg having lunched together

by the duck pond. And I thought maybe they were plotting to rig... Take over the world, I think. That's just my speculation. I have to ask you these questions because if I were there, I'd be yelling at all these people and they'd have to get bouncers. to throw me out of Idaho. So you're there, and there's these wealthy people that are all making deals, and this is what they like to do, and I got this kind of a yacht,

I got this jet, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay, but that's the establishment. That's, those are the people that the MAGA people don't like, right? Right. Yes, that's including me. You don't like them. Don't say that. You will get it.

I mean. I know Monica's. other. He won't get invited again if you say that. No, look, I mean, they're all very nice in person. It's their agendas that I disagree with. And frankly, when I'm there, Bill, I find it fascinating because somebody like Bill Gates or, you know, Steve Jobs when he used to come, Sam Altman, the head of Open AI talking about artificial intelligence, it is fascinating to me to listen to them and watch how their brains work because it is a completely different way

than your brain works or my brain works. These tech guys are a different species. And it's fascinating for me coming from a different political point of view, different life experience, to listen to what they have to say because it's always good to hear the other side but also if you hear about what they're working on

for the future. It's a learning experience. Yes. One more question. You say it's off the record. Say you wrote an arson. article about this, because Monica is honest, I'm going to tell my audience, I've known Monica forever. It's not going to give you any BS. You're going to tell you what it is or what she

thinks it is. True. So what, say you wrote, say, look, this is what I heard. You would be a pariah, right? You would be like, forget it. Okay. Correct. So they want to be secret. In addition to pinheads, these people want to be secret pinheads. They want to be furtive pinheads, right? At least at that conference, they do. Yes, Bill. Okay. I got that number, Monica. But thank you very much because, you know, I know it's beautiful, state, Sun Valley, a great place.

But I'll never be here. All right, Monica Crowley, thank you very much for taking time. We know you're busy, as I stated. And check out Monica's podcast, by the way. You're doing a podcast from here, right, from the convention? I am, yes. It's the Monica Crowley podcast. I'm also now posting on Rumble, so you can find my show.

at the Monica Crowley podcast on Rumbles. It's stream there. So please go check it out. And thank you, Bill. Okay, Monica. See you soon. There's some mystery. So on October 14th, 1912, Teddy Roosevelt was given a speech. He was running on a third party for the presidency. And he was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, ironically. The guy named John Shrank, 36 years old, come on and shot him in his chest. Okay. Roosevelt's life was saved because He had a speech in his jacket along with a eyeglass case. But Bullet penetrated, but didn't penetrate enough to do him grave harm. And Teddy continued his speech saying,

you're not going to kill a bull moose that easy. All right, I have that in confronting the president. And it's just ironic that this stuff, and it's always going to be with us, we're never going to stop it. But the Secret Service is the last line of defense, which is why you have to revamp that whole agency. Now, Donald Trump is the second most vilified president in our history. Abraham Lincoln was first, and we all know what happened to Abe.

Killing Lincoln, my first killing book, 3 million copies sold and counting. We go over the assassination of President Lincoln, the first president to be assassinated. Lincoln, because of the Civil War, was under unbelievable duress constantly. The second most vilified president in this country is Donald Trump. For nine years, that man has been attacked every single day of his life. He gets no credit from the media about the things that he did well in office. He's just attacked, attacked, attacked. His family's attacked, every fiber of his being is attacked.

Second, third is Andrew Jackson, and again, we'll talk about that in confronting the presidents. But Trump reacted to those attacks. Sometimes it went over the top. But that's the truth. Second most vilified president. All right, this week in history, July 14th, 2016, I remember there's a big terror attack in Nice, France. All right, 86 people killed, 10 children, 450 injured. Some jihadists drove a 19-ton cargo truck into a crowd on Bastille Day.

Well, I was doing the O'Reilly Factor on Fox at the time, and we had both presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, call into the program. Roll the tape. All right, we are very pleased to have former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the phone with us now. So, Madam Secretary, it is the consensus of the experts here on the panel at the factor that critical mass has been reached and now concrete things have to be taken in a world war situation, mobilization of NATO, Congress declaring war. Would you oppose any of that?

Well, Bill, first of all, I think it's important to stress that our alliance with France is so strong and it's terrible that France has faced too much tragedy and violence and we need to stand strongly with them because events like this remind us how vital it is in every way not to abandon them. Joining us now on the phone from his Manhattan headquarters is Mr. Trump. So let's take the Terrorist Act and everybody now believes that's true because the French authorities have turned over the investigation to their anti-terror unit. If this has proven to be the case, I believe it's a world war now. We're in a world war scenario.

It's no longer just isolated ISIS attacks. Do you agree with that? I certainly do, and I've been saying it for a long time, and it's out of control. And we don't call it what, we have a president that doesn't want to call it what it is. And, you know, you look at World Trade Center, you look at San Bernardino, you look at Paris, 130 people killed, and so many injured. in Paris from that attack. So I just want to remind you about our reach here.

We've been involved in all historical events for almost 30 years. All right, final thought of the day, millions and millions of people all over the world watch the Daily show with John Stewart O'Reilly's shooting it out. That was about 15 minutes. Right after that, I taped a podcast

with Mr. Stewart, which is an hour. I think it's the best debate you will ever see in your life. Of course, I'm not. Objective about it, but it's pretty darn good. Here's a sample. We stand for liberty. We stand for the Constitution. And man, you know who's doing it right?

Putin and Orban. Those are illiberal autocrats. What are we talking about here? Well, we didn't get to it on The Daily Show because you were babbling so much. That's what I do. That's my calling card. But J.D. Vance is the biggest Putin enabler I've seen. J.D. Vance, and I actually use this.

What is the rationale? I truly want to understand it. So J.D. Vance, I use a soundbite on the NOSPN News, which is my daily broadcast. Bill O'Reilly.com, you can get it all. So I use a soundbite of J.D. Vance, Senator Vance, saying, hey, Putin, he's not Hitler. All right, he's not a threat. United States is much stronger than it was in 1938.

And I'm going, wait, I believe Putin has nuclear weapons. So anyway, Vance misreads history. All right, he doesn't understand the danger of Putin. He only went to Yale, so, you know. Well, it was Yale law school, which is really not going to school. It's kind of like all you do is demonstrate and make little signs. Oh, is that? I didn't realize that. It's just a commune. And I can say that because I went to Harvard, all right?

So I understand what's going on. You went to Harvard? Was that a DEI initiative for Irish guys? That was, we have to admit him because he's so brilliant, but we don't want to. We don't want to. Fair enough. All right. So get an hour of that. We'll post it on Bill O'Reilly.com this weekend. We posted a six-minute clip if you want to watch a little bit more today.

Now, on the J.D. Vance front, I'm going to, I booked a guest for Monday to be fair to him who loves J.D. Vance. And I, because I want to understand where he's coming from on Ukraine and Putin and all of that. I want to understand where Senator Vance is coming from. I think that's fair. So I got a guest on Monday who's going to tell me. But from my initial analysis, Vance doesn't want to help Ukraine. And I think that's a big problem. Now, Trump, I don't know, because Trump's playing a cagey on Ukraine. Now, every time you ask somebody goes, I don't worry, I'm going to make a deal with Putin.

It'll be all over in a week. Okay, all right. But now, the strategy of the USA is to bleed Putin white by helping Ukraine with weapons. All right. Reagan did the same thing. Remember this. Reagan bankrupted the Soviet Union, and the left went crazy because Reagan was paying for Star Wars, weapons, all these ways. They went nuts.

John Stewart, how are you doing with all the money? All right. Well, what happened? Russia collapsed. Soviet Union collapsed. That's what the planning is now for Putin. Bleed him, lessen his power. But anyway, I'm looking forward to the J.D. Vance.

segment on Monday. I hope you will be with us. Stay with bill o'Reilly.com. Please watch the Stewart O'Reilly podcast. It's well worth your time, okay? Because we're working the weekend. Whatever happens, you'll know about it quick. Thank you for watching us tonight. We'll see you on Monday.
