Because the next generation 2025 GMC terrain elevation is raising the standard of what comes standard.

You set the table, put on a playlist, even made the lasagna from scratch, and now you're wearing it.
OxyClean MaxForce spray tackles tough, set in stains the first time.
Adulting is hard.
Fighting stains shouldn't be.
OxyClean Maxforce.
It's not clean unless it's OxyClean.
Well, let's tell you about on the tariff front, with very much.
President Trump, but there's a new Pope. So I think we'll lead with that tonight. I do not know
Cardinal Robert Francis Provost. All right, he is from Chicago. He is a protege of the
Cardinal of Chicago. And he looks like a good guy to me from my initial research. But I don't
know him. I don't know anyone who does know him because he hasn't been in America for 10 years.
years. So he was the leading Catholic cleric in Peru. In fact, he holds Peruvian citizenship as well
as American citizenship. Two passports. Sixty-nine years old, born in Chicago, first American
Pope in history. I hope that's a good thing. He looks like a good guy to me just watching his
demeanor when he came out on the Vatican balcony and greeted the folks and here's what
he had to say, Roland.
The Pope who blessed Rome gave his blessing to the world, to the entire world, that morning
of Easter.
Allow me to follow up on that blessing.
God loves us.
God loves everyone.
evil will not prevail
we are all in the hands of God
therefore without fear
united
hand in hand with God
and amongst ourselves
let us go forward
I like the line
evil will not prevail I like that line
so I'm going to send them
a copy of confronting evil
my book, that'll be out in September.
Now, the new pope, if you don't read Roman numerals, he is Leo the 14th, all right.
My Catholic school upbringing, drum that into my head.
I got those Roman numerals.
So he was active in the USA in the early part of his career, 1982 to 85, and then from
2000 to 2014, the rest of the time he spent in Peru and,
Rome, and he had a good position of Rome, and he was friendly with Pope Francis, who, of course,
was in Argentine. And Peru is right across the continent. Now, Peru is an interesting country,
very poor, not as destable as Colombia, Venezuela, even Argentina and Brazil, but there's a big
gulf in Peru between the wealthy and the poor.
And I think you're going to see a lot of sympathy for the poor from the new Pope.
Now, he was educated Villanova in Philadelphia, a bachelor's science degree in math.
He's got to speak a bunch of languages.
I know he speaks Italian, English, and Spanish.
I am trying to track down the other language.
He's 69 years old, as I said.
And it looks like, you know, from the just cursory view that he is a good choice.
Now, why should you care if you're not Catholic?
Because on this planet, there are very few institutions devoted to try to spread peace on earth goodwill to men.
You don't have a lot of that going on.
Do you?
And you can pick a part of the Catholic Church.
That's not a hard to do.
It's run by men.
A lot of those men are evil.
Okay?
And we saw that over the past few decades.
But the theology is pretty solid, in my opinion.
That's why I am a Catholic.
But we need some kind of tempering of the evil that we see every day.
And the totalitarians, you know, like the Chinese, they don't want the Catholic Church.
Putin says he's an Orthodox, Russian Orthodox adherent, but he's not.
He's a murderer.
He's a killer.
And the Pope really can't do anything about those guys.
If you read Killing the SS, you'll see what the Pope came up against when he tried to temper Hitler.
And it was impossible.
These bad, evil people, they override the good people, but we still need to hear from the good people.
And that's why the Pope's story is important.
And, you know, if I find somebody denigrating my religion, I speak up, I don't let it go.
And I know that we are a secular country.
I'm not a holy roller.
I don't proselytize on this program.
I tell you who I am, what I do, why I believe, what I believe.
But I'm, you know, I'm optimistic that this Pope will be a positive force for humanity.
And I think that's what we need, okay?
And I'll have more on Monday as we delve into this, but I think it's a positive, all around, even if you don't believe.
All right, let's do the talking points on the UK trade deal with President Trump.
So, this is a fascinating story.
As I told you, I talked to the Pope yesterday, Wednesday morning, the Pope, the President.
The President yesterday, Wednesday morning, and a lot of it was about the tariffs, and he's buoyant.
He believes he's going to get these deals laid down.
And I don't know.
How can I possibly know?
All I can do is report what's happening.
So today, the U.K. and the USA made a deal that the president says going to help our country with ethanol, beef, machinery, and agricultural products.
We do have a trade surplus with Great Britain.
That means we derive more money from them than they, from us, which is one of the few countries in the world,
which is why this deal was easier to make.
But it looks like a good deal to me for both countries, all right?
And it sends a message that this tariff's stuff is underway.
The British Prime Minister, Keir Starrmer, he's a pretty good relationship with Donald Trump.
And so I'm happy to see this because I want every American to prosper.
I want our economy strong.
I don't care if it comes to Donald Trump or Joe Biden or Barack Obama or Bush the Younger.
I just want us to be strong.
I want you to make as much money as you can bank, honestly.
Okay, that's my goal.
Now, about an hour after the deal was announced, the Dow was up 650 points.
I don't know, you know, we taping before it closed, so the thing goes all over the place,
and that's not good.
I want to stable it down.
I think in the next few weeks you're going to see a number of tariff deals.
So here's what President Trump said today, Roland.
With this deal, the UK joins the United States in affirming that reciprocity and fairness is an essential and vital
principle of international trade the deal includes billions of dollars of increased market access
for american exports especially in agriculture dramatically increasing access for american beef ethanol
and virtually all of the products produced by our great farmers all right so good right is there
a downside of course there's a downside to the people who hate trump because they don't want
want him to prosper. They would rather see you suffer than him prosper. Just think about that.
All right. So last night I went on News Nation, Chris Cuomo. And Cuomo is taking the Democrat line
on the tariffs that they have not helped the United States so far. It's only been a month.
My tactic is wait. This is a total reworking of the American economy.
and so you can't make any judgments on it in a month.

Other than to hope it succeeds, right?
Roll the tape.
Bill, what am I saying that you don't like?
Help me.
Everything.
Really?
It's like fighting the Civil War.
Yeah.
It's like fighting the Civil War.
The first year was a disaster for the North.
And, oh, no, we lost.
Oh, we can't do this.
We can't do it.
No, you have to let it unfold.
Unemployment, as I told the Congressman,
auction schloss is from, in a town home,
is 4.2%. Consumer spending is still at the level it is. There's no need to cut interest rates.
The Fed didn't do it today. Okay. The economy is humming along, Cuomo, and you're painting it as
1929. Oh, no, I'm not. I'm not paying it as 1929 at all. And the market is gambling.
It goes up and down. I'm talking about the realities of small business and people who are
trying to borrow money right now. They can't, Bill. That's certainly.
4.2 in employment is about as low as he gets.
4.2 on employment is.
It's almost full employment, which is why this ties into a different issue known as immigration.
Oh, the deflection.
Look, the economy, thank God, is pretty good right now.
And Trump says it's going to get a lot better when these draft deals roll in.
I don't know.
But you give them a little more time.
But the Democrats don't want them to succeed.
Now, Cuomo's not a hater.
See, he's not at the level of MSNBC,
which is just a disgrace.
I've never seen anything like that.
And that's Comcast, NBC News.
I know they're getting rid of it,
but every blanken day,
all they do is sell hate, hate, hate.
Roll it.
It sounds like this is a marginal deal and that it's not that big of a deal when we look at.
I'm curious to see the details of how much there will be in change compared to what we previously had with the UK.
And then the UK officials also know that in order to negotiate the best deal for their country that they need to stroke his ego.
And so that's kind of, I think, what we saw take place there.
Sure.
It doesn't matter what Trump does.
Close the border.
doesn't matter. Okay. Get a good deal with UK and tariff trade. Doesn't matter. Oh, no. Just attack, attack, attack.
This is NBC. Not some fringe lunatic website. And these people are paid to do this every day.
Okay. That's the memo. There is a polling outfit, D-D-H-Q. And this is the decision desk on News Nation, which you call the presidential race first. They're good. And they have compiled the job approval ratings for Donald Trump here. They are as of May 5th, 45% job approval.
51% disapprove.
That is 1% up from April and down 2% and disapprove.
Now, I told you, and this is obviously fact,
if the trade deals and tariff deals come in,
if the stock market stabilizes, if people's investments rise,
then the favorability rises in conjunction.
It's all about that.
All right, latest Harvard, Harry,
poll run by our pal mark pant fair poll uh 2,286 registered voters. That's a big, big crew.
Okay. Favorability of Donald Trump as president. Approved 48. Disapproved 46. Right or wrong track of the
country. Right track 39. Wrong. 49. 10 point gap. Next question. Do you approve of the Republican
party of disapprove, approved 51, disapprove 49. Finally, approve or disapprove of the Democratic
Party, approved 42, disapprove 58. Big Gap. Joining us now, Miami, Florida is Mark Penn. He's a chairman and
CEO of Stagwell, a global marketing firm. And you do oversee this poll. But this poll is different
than most other polls. How come?
I'm sorry, you went in and out of there.
This poll, your poll, Harvard Harris, is different than most of the other polling.
Why?
Well, look, you know, we interview voters, and you have to be careful.
Well, there are two things.
One, you have to differentiate between the polls that tend to interview all adults, because all adults
tend to be more negative about everything.
And so they're more negative towards all politicians than.
voter polls. We're a voter poll. The second thing is, I made sure to readjust my sample after the
election to make sure that it represents that the Republicans now are a bigger party than the
Democrats. That was the result of the election. That's what Gallup found. And I think a lot of the
other polls just, you know, basically had Harris winning and then stuck with their exact sample.
We had it very close within two points.
Either way, we made sure that our samples, we believe, accurately represent the country.
And it's not like Donald Trump's in the 70s or anything, but he certainly has continued to keep his constituency, maybe a little bit more.
He's got some very high approval ratings on some of the policies he is pursuing and some things that people are not as happy with.
Okay, and I'm a kind of guy that puts the polls into perspective as far as data is concerned.
And you're running on a poll.
I've never had a problem with Harvard Harris poll.
And I'm a problem with Gallup.
All right.
McLaughlin is always very accurate.
And the guys in Brazil are good.
Forget their names now, but they were the best on the presidential race.
Do you believe that there are certain outfits that have their thumb, cliche,
on the polling scale and want to deliver a bad poll number for Trump.
Well, look, I think you've seen the entire media, you know, gang up pretty much on the president
and his policies. You've seen it, I mean, look, imports are only 10% of the country
and a 10% tariff on 10% of the country is 1%.
And oh, my God, did you see dire predictions of complete economic collapse here?
All right, tariffs may not be a positive move compared to tax cuts
and may have some dislocations.
But relatively speaking, you saw this vast exaggeration of their size and impact.
And at the same time, it's the same thing I think that you see in some of these polls.
they don't ask the questions, you know, that they don't want the answers to.
We're very clear, you know, people support taking those people who are here illegally
and committed crimes out of the country.
There's no question about that.
They may not be for renaming the Gulf of Mexico into Gulf of America, but when it comes
to the core immigration policies that the president is pursuing, that's supported by like 70%
of the country, if not more.
Well, I think, and you correct me if I'm wrong,
which you know more about this than I do,
but I've been around a while.
When you are being paid to deliver data,
you pretty much want to please your pay master.
It's a psychological thing.
And if there are ways that you can do that,
and you pointed one of them out by keeping an obsolete model,
that the Democratic Party has a bigger presence than the Republican Party,
when that's not true any longer.
But nobody knows whether you're keeping that or not,
except you, and you want to get paid,
you'll keep the obsolete model.
That just makes sense, right?
Well, let me say that the Harvard Harris poll
is done as a not fit.
Purely because I felt that newspaper polls
were no longer reflecting the kind of more accurate polling
than I did at the Wheat House
when I worked with President Clinton.
because, I mean, I went back and I saw, well, sanctuary cities.
Would you think it's popular that cities don't pick up people who are designated and committed crimes and deport them?
Well, I found out that no poll had asked that question since 1978, right?
So a lot of the polls don't carry the questions they don't want the answers to.
Now, I'm not going to indict the whole profession.
And people run honest polls, you know.
But your poll is a lot different than 80% of them.
Let me ask you one more question, forward looking.
The media, as you pointed out, does have a tendency to try to panic the folks.
You use the tariff example, the import example, is very low.
When the folks hear that and then they see.
a down day on the stock market or a down week, they do indeed panic. And that is reflected
in the polling, correct?
Yeah, I have actually found that the voters are less sensitive to the stock market. They're
mostly sensitive to the prices that they pay and to the unemployment rate. And those things
very much directly affect politics. Look, why isn't Trump, you know, in the 50s or 60s,
Right? Because the most important issue right now is inflation, and people haven't experienced inflation coming down or prices down.
Even though gas and eggs are down somewhat, the president is off on a lot of other issues, particularly immigration, but also on tariffs, on a number of these others.
But the voters, I think, are really looking for a demonstration that the economy is going to be strong, that his economic policies are going to work.
that their wages are going to grow faster than prices.
Well, that's what he's trying to do, but nobody knows whether that is going to work or not.
Mark Penn, thank you very much.
We always enjoy talking to you, and we'll speak again soon, I hope.
Thank you.
All right, let's go to Mexico, and you know I feel about that country.
So we are the biggest trading partner for Mexico.
Mexico cannot survive without the United States.
We buy their stuff.
Millions of Mexico in the United States, legally.
and illegally send money back to their relatives inside of Mexico.
Tourism is the biggest next to oil,
and I don't even know what the Mexican oil industry does anymore,
but without the United States, Mexico goes down.
In return, Mexico has allowed drug cartels
to kill more than a million Americans this century so far,
and they don't constrain the drug cartels.
The drug cartels are the most powerful unit inside of Mexico.
They run, okay, areas of the country, Senaloa, you know, all bunch.
Cartels run them.
They bribe officials.
If you don't take the bribe, they shoot you and your family.
Okay.
The Mexican government has no control over them at all.
None.
Obrador was a disgrace.
Now to have a new president, Gloria Scheinbaum, okay?
Should have any control over the drug cartels.
They run Acapulco.

All right, I was in a town called LaPaz a few years ago.
Cartel in the whole town.
All the buildings, all the restaurants, all the bars, the cartel, you eat from them.
There they were.
Okay?
Because they got the money.
So Trump is trying to break the drug cartels,
and he has designated them as terrorist groups,
which means the United States can hunt them down and kill them anywhere in the world,
or incarcerate them, Guantanamo Bay.
I wrote a message of the day about this today on bill o'Reilly.com.
Shine bomb is not cooperating with Trump
in trying to destroy the drug cartels.
It's shocking.
Roll the tape.
In one of the calls, U.S. President Donald Trump
said it was important for the U.S. Army to enter Mexico
to help us in the fight against drug trafficking.
And I want to say that's true.
In some of the calls, he said,
How can we help you fight drug trafficking?
I propose that the U.S. Army come in to help you.
And you know what I told him?
No, President Trump.
The territory is sacrosanct.
Sovereignty is sacrosanct.
Sovereignty is not for sale.
Sovereignty is loved and defended.
What a bunch of bull.
You don't have sovereignty, Madam.
You don't run your own country.
I mean, it's so insane that this century,
more than a million people in Mexico
have been murdered or disappeared,
according to a variety of human rights.
They shoot mayors, they shoot journalists,
They shoot anybody.
You don't have any sovereignty.
You don't run your own country.
And Trump is handing you a card that would break these drug cartels once and for all.
And all he wants you to do is cooperate with him.
We don't even need your cooperation by U.S. law, by the way.
We don't even need it.
We can drone those people or send seals in to get them any time we want.
And what are you going to do about it?
Nothing.
Trump is being polite to you, and you do this, is what our president said.
Well, she's so afraid of the cartel she can't walk, so, you know, that's the reason.
And I think she's a lovely woman, but the president of Mexico is a lovely woman,
but she is so afraid of the cartels that she can't even think straight.
That's true.
She's afraid she's going to get killed.
And that's where we are in this.
And nobody else in American media will tell you the truth.
I don't go to Mexico, you know that.
I'm going to do more on this on YouTube, on our YouTube special bonus, YouTube bonus.
I'm going to get into the precise stats and how horrendous this whole country is, Mexico.
You imagine if another country was killing Americans the way that fell
Fentadol and heroin and cocaine are killing Americans.
And the government wouldn't do anything to stop it?
I mean, we'd clear war on them.
Wars have started a lot less than this.
Hamas releases the last American hostage in Gaza.
Aiden Alexander, 21 years old.
He was 19 when he was abducted by Hamas.
He was in the Israeli army.
He was raised in Tenafly, New Jersey.
and they let him out, and he was given to the Red Cross in Gaza.
The 59 hostages still there.
24 of the 59 are dead, according to Hamas.
Trump's trying to get the rest out.
So I'm glad that Mr. Alexander is home with his parents,
more than about a year and a half.
Boy, boy.
So you can see that all this happened in one day.
Oh, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Think back to Joe Biden.
Think any of that would have happened?
Just asking.
All right, Donald Trump is urging his Supreme Court to end Biden's mass parole.
Now, this is a story that people don't understand.
Again, that's why I will like you to watch and listen on the radio with a pen and paper.
So under the Biden administration,
There are four countries singled out for special consideration in the migrant area.
Four countries.
Those countries are Cuba, Haiti, Nagragua, Venezuela, all horrible places run by crazy people.
And in a humanitarian way, and that's what the basis of this was, if you can give
get here and you're a citizen of any of those countries, you can stay, according to President
Biden. But he didn't vet anybody. Of course not. Why would he bother vetting anybody? So in Venezuela,
Nicaragua, and to a lesser extent, Haiti and Cuba, criminals came. And they're running a while.
Not overwhelming. The most criminals are from Mexico and Central and South American country.
Nicaragua, of course, of that as well.
But Biden was noble in a sense that these are terrible countries,
political repressions all over the place,
but then he didn't vet anybody because he was too lazy to do his job
or he didn't understand or he was in a fog or he's taking a nap.
I don't know.
So Trump has to go to the Supreme Court hold it.
We have to vet these people.
But a judge in Boston, of course, Indira, Tawani,
appointed by Barack Obama said, no, no, nope, Trump can't demand that.
Okay, so Trump's going to the Supreme Court.
The problem is that Justice Kenjani Brown Jackson, probably the most liberal member, even worse on the left and so to my or is in charge of hearing this.
I don't think it's going to get anywhere.
This is politics in the justice system, the immigration system.
But maybe I'm wrong, maybe it'll get to the Supreme Court.
I don't know.
Let's go to Newark, New Jersey.
I don't know why you would want to go to New Jersey.
The Devils play there, have a nice arena.
But not exactly the kind of town you want to spend a lot of time in.
I'm sorry, suburbs are nice, cities are dumb.
Airport doesn't work, so you can't fly in there.
You've got to fly to Philly or New York.
Can't fly into Newark.
If you try, you're going to get hosed.
Anyway, there is a big ICE detention facility in Newark.
And a bunch of left-wing people besieged it over the weekend.
Roll the tape.
All right. So the mayor of Newark, Ross Baraka, Democrat,
55 years old, two-term mayor. He was arrested for the, let's see, disturbing to
P trespassing. Nothing will happen to him. I mean, he got what he wanted. This was a stunt.
Okay, they're noble, the migrants, they hate ice. Okay, on and on. We all know what it is.
And, you know, I'm not opposed to that kind of a demonstration, just don't break the law.
So, you know, demonstrate it all you want.
Iran. So here, the Trump administration is caught in a tough cycle.
Iran is playing games, just like Putin's playing games.
They don't want to make any deal.
They want to get a nuke.
But Trump is very clear, you're not going to get a nuke.
And if you continue to do this kind of stuff, build a nuke
and enrich the uranium, we're going to bomb you.
Or Israel will bomb you, but you're going to get bombed.
It's as simple as that.
That's what it is.
You've got to stop, enriching uranium,
make your bomb. We're going to bomb you.
We're going to take out all your ports.
Not going to get anything in or out.
So the Iranians go, okay, well, we'll talk about it.
And talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk.
So Steve Whitcomb, you know, he got very high praise from President Trump today.
He's the head investigator.
He was the guy who did the Chinese deal and he goes over to Oman,
Muscat, to negotiate with the Iranians.
Are they going to get a deal?
They have to get a deal because the mullahs have no protection.
Israel love to waste them.
Love to.
Take them right out.
They have no allies in the Gulf.
Everybody hates Iran.
They have no allies.
Putin is their only ally.
And Putin's not going to believe me.
He's got to know problems.
So they've got to get a deal, but it's very, very difficult.
I'm pretty good negotiating these things.
but I wouldn't want to be doing this.
These people, when you read the chapter
and my book Confronting Evil,
which is out in September on Ayatollah Khomeini,
what do you see?
I mean, these people are not,
they don't live on the same planet that we live on.
All right, Pentagon Pete Higsev, Defense Secretary,
and this is why Trump hired Higson.
It says it's 1.2 million U.S. service people right now.
there are 4,240 trans people.
Now, I'm not saying that the trans people join the military
so they get their gender affirming care free,
but that might be the case, 52 million a year.
So Egg Seth and Trump say, no more, you're out, we're not doing it.
So the trans people in the military have to June 6th,
that's coming up fast to resolve
And I guess they'll get an honorable discharge if they do so.
If not, they're going to get kicked out.
But starting today, no more transgender affirming care in the military.
Smart life.
Now, this is a tip that you need to know, particularly if you live in and around a big city, as I do in New York.
So right now, I am about 18 miles, oh, maybe.
20 miles in the Midtown tunnel.
Now that doesn't seem like a lot, right?
You take me an hour and a half to get there.
I'm going to reunying to my family

So AAA says that record-breaking travel this Memorial Day weekend.
45 million Americans, I don't know how AAA knows this, are going to be traveling.
87% are going to go by car.
Only 8% will fly.
And I can almost guarantee that every one of those 8% flies are going to be delayed.
All right.
So now we have 87% of 45 million.
I can't do the math, but they're going to be driving.
Top destinations, Orlando, Disney World, and internationally.
Rome, Italy. I'm just throwing that in because this is all about domestic travel.
Okay, 40 million, I'm sorry, 40 million travelers are going to drive. Now, if you live in any
metropolitan area, you cannot drive in prime time, or you're going to just sit in a car. And I don't
want your three-day, Memorial Day weekend or four days to be ruined. Oh, here are the windows.
Ready for the windows. Smart light. Get in that car at 6 a.m. You got four hours.
between 6 and 10, maybe 9.30 if you're in New York, okay?
To get out.
You can do it, you can move.
But even then, you know, it's not going to be Zoom.
Zoom happens 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Now, a lot of people don't want to drive at night.
I have no problem driving on night, okay?
9 p.m. to 6 a.m., that's nine hours.
Right, nine hours.
You can sail.
Yeah, you might lose a little sleep, take a nap.
Okay?
And then on your car radio, you get stations from all over the place.
It's fun if you still have that.
But anyway, that's a smart life tip.
Those are the windows.
And I'm telling you, it'll make your life so much easier
if you could sit in in that traffic hour after hour, after hour, after hour,
and you're never going to get around it.
Mart life.

So if you sign up on bill o'Reilly.com for concierge membership,

So I have a team, okay, and I read the emails, all of them,
and we reply within 24 hours.
You're not waiting around.
This is an insurance policy for your life,
and it's a very strong convenience.
Not only you get that, but you get transcripts of everything that I say,
so you can build a library of facts if you want to.
So I'm going to give you three that we did recently in the last week.
So we had a woman in Nevada, a heartbreaking story.
Her sister has dementia.
And this woman, young woman, fairly young, had to care for her, has to care for her.
And what?
It's a killer.
Because you can't travel, you can't go anywhere, you can't do anything, you need relief.
So we discovered in Nevada, the state of Nevada, there is an organization called
dementia friendly that health people in this circumstance. Nobody knows about it. Dementia friendly.
And it goes through the state. So the state helps it out. So we hooked up this woman
with dementia friendly and they solved a lot of her problems. You know how valuable that was
to her? Number two.
When you get involved with the IRS or the VA or Social Security or any bureaucracy, you're hosed.
You're hosed because they're not going to respond and you'll wait hours and hours and hours and then you'll get somebody named Tammy on the phone and Tammy and say, I'm going to do this and won't do it and you can't do anything about it.
So there's a fairly significant problem with this guy in Texas, okay?
It came to us, and we put him in touch with a woman named Sarah Schultz Lacky
from the Office of Regional Commissioner's Social Security.
She is a hero.
This woman is a hero.
Sarah Schultz Lacken helped this guy and the guy's whole life turned around.
Because we know where the heroes are.
Third one, Maryland, okay?
This was not at the level of the other two, but it's annoying.
So there's a guy comes, so he said, look, I just spent a lot of money buying an item at Lowe's.
All right, L-O-W-E-S.
Now, my experience with Lowe has been good, my life, okay, Home Depot too.
And so he said, okay, he gives only information, boom, we got it solved in a half an hour.
And Lowe's is a great.
It's just a matter of getting the problem in front of the right people, not Tammy.
We can do that.
You can't.
Concierge membership, Bill O'Reilly.com.
You will never regret it.
And we keep the price down.
All right, because we want to provide this service.
Here is the final thought of the day.
As you know, my Corgi Holly passed away a few weeks ago,
And the condolences still coming in from all over the world.
I think Holly broke the Guinness Book of Records for pet condolences.
And I can't answer them long.
And it just kills me.
And they're coming in from everywhere.
So by the time they reach me, you know, but I just want to thank everybody now for acknowledging Holly.
And she was a beautiful dog.
And we missed it.
The house will never be the same.
You know, even after the week's past, you know, I still, when I come home, we go, it's just not the same.
And, you know, if you've had a pet, dog or cat or parakeet or whatever, and you get attached to them and they're not there, you know what it is.
But the generosity of spirit, you know, I don't, I'm not a sentimental man.
I don't do this a lot.
But you just see the people with the cards and the drawings and the pictures and they, you know,
and they take the time out of their lives to do this.
and then they figure out where to send it.
I mean, that's called generosity of spirit.
And I have answered some, but I just can't answer them all.
I mean, it's just impossible for me to do it.
But I want you to know that, boy, oh, boy,
it was really a tribute to Holly.
And, you know, I'm very, very thankful that you are listening and watching me,
not only because of commercial reasons,
but because I think most of you are good folks.
Okay, it's far more important.
Thank you for watching.
We'll see you tomorrow.
