That's Savage, Jose Abara, Venezuela, an undocumented migrant gang member,
or sentenced to life, he'll never, ever get out of prison for killing 22-year-old
Lakin Riley in Georgia.
This was
a, this whole case
was a
piece of history and I don't think most
people understand why. I said
very early on that Georgia would go for Donald Trump because
Ms. Riley was murdered by this undocumented
migrant who
then becomes the symbol
of President Biden's insane open border policy.
So I don't want to hear from Geraldo saying that most migrants are lawful and, you know,
Americans commit crimes at a higher rate than migrants.
I don't want to hear any of that because that pettifogs the issue.
The issue is you, the President of the United States, allowed people in here, maybe 15 million of them,
and you have no idea who they are, where they are, or what they're doing.
It's in the top 10 most irresponsible policies ever in this country.
And it led to Kamala Harris's defeat because all she did was giggle her assent to the insanity that Joe Biden imposed.
So now it comes full circle.
I will tell you that Jose Abara, there's a good chance he'll be murdered in prison, the Markman.
All right.
And if they can kill them, the other inmates, they'll kill them.
If he does join up in a gang, the gang will protect him, but then he will have to kill for the gang.
Well, this guy might kill somebody inside prison.
I don't usually do speculating, but you need to know what the situation is in federal penitentiaries around the country.
See, it isn't safe.
If you don't believe me, go up to Boston and ask White Boulders, friends.
Okay, the total American penitentiary and prison systems in each state have to be revamped.
And it's going to cost a lot of money to do that, but there's more crime inside prison and outside sometimes.
And it's got to stop.
But that's another day.
So Lake and Riley and her family get some sense of justice here.
Judge did the right thing.
Abara, still around to do damage, but the odds of him, living much longer, you make the call.
Okay, talking points memo.
MSNBC is finished.
Now, this is another incredible underreported story, but I am your media guy.
50 years in January.
Okay.
So MSNBC is a hateful, and I mean that literally, far-left network.
Everybody knows that.
Its baseline of operations is between, in prime time, a million and two million viewers.
It's nothing.
It's been around since July 15, 1996, Fox News Channel started three months.
later. In the beginning, MSNBC was simply an arm of NBC news because NBC had no outlet
other than the half-hour nightly newscast at that time anchored by Tom Brokaw for its news.
And they said, okay, well, we'll get a network 24 hours. We can put all our correspondents there
and we can do bigger stories. So the intention in the beginning was fine. Enter Fox News Channel and me.
And we made history, media history, by just blowing the roof off the joint in prime time by doing news analysis, making billions with a B of dollars for the parent company.
And Fox surged and wiped out MSNBC and CNN and continues to do that today.
And the reason is simple.
Up and to that point, traditional and conservative Americans did not have any presentations on television in the news area that even respected them.
It was all left-wing stuff.
Not as overt it as today, but it would believe me.
I worked at CBS and ABC News as a correspondent.
I know.
Anyway, once NBC Comcast, which is the parent company based in Philadelphia, saw how much money that I and others were generating in prime time, they switched over to left-wing opinion.
Just nothing wrong with that.
But then they injected hate into their presentation.
Roll the table.
And this is a president who has activated.
pro-Trump paramilitary groups that, you know, wear insignia and t-shirts and hold placards celebrating
literally right-wing death squads.
Yes, this race will be far too close.
Because unfortunately, we do have a fascist groundswell in parts of this country,
mainly among white men, let's be clear, but in small pockets among black and brown men, too.
Donald Trump is the only presidential nominee of a major party
in the history of this country
who has admired Adolf Hitler,
the only one.
Stop me if you've heard this one before.
Republicans speaks the truth about Donald Trump.
Donald Trump smears, attacks, and belittles them.
Republican falls in line
rather than face excommunication from the party.
I mean, really, how many times at this point
have we seen this movie?
Okay, so now it is all over for those people.
What does that mean?
So Comcast has decided to uncouple MSNBC from NBC News.
So no longer will they share, I guess, personnel information.
Nobody really knows, but NBC News is hemorrhaging viewers.
Its nightly newscast is down 20% in five years.
The Today Show is down 30%.
And one of the reasons it's hemorrhaging viewers is because traditional and conservative Americans,
which about 50% of the country may be more, will watch it because of MSNBC.
So it took them a long time to figure this out, but the election of Donald Trump made it crystal clear
that the haters and the far-left progressives on MSNBC are.
damaging the bottom line. You damage corporate bottom line, you're done. So now, today, Comcast
says MSNBC is going to go over here, not going to be associated with NBC News any longer.
Huge story. Have you heard it? I don't want to report it. Along with MSNBC, you got CNBC,
sci-fi channel, golf channel, USA Network, all being shunned to the side.
And if you want to buy it, you can buy it.
Comcastle Salty, you probably get a pretty good deal.
And I wouldn't be surprised if George Soros steps up buying radio stations, right?
But they just want to get rid of this.
Okay?
And the people who work there are in dire trouble.
Who's going to pay them?
Domgez doesn't want to pay him, doesn't want the operation.
This is Maddow, Morning Joe, Meek, all these people who are making pretty good money.
Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress.
National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets.
And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold.
That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust.
American Hartford Gold. And you can do this. Get precious metals delivered to your door or place
in a tax advantage, gold IRA. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401k,
tax and penalty free. With billions in precious metals delivered thousands of five-star reviews
and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau, you can trust American Hartford Gold as I do.
Please call 866-326-55-7576 or text bill to 99-88-99.
Again, that's 866-3-2-26-5576 or text bill to 998899.
Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines.
I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist and the host of the brand-new-podcast,
Podforce 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. Bye. All right. Big, big development in the media. So, the last part of this analysis
and the talking points memo is passive retribution, the best kind. All right, I will tell you the
truth. When I see one of my enemies go down, makes me happy. And I'm sorry, it's probably
I'll probably have to confess it to the Monsignor, but I don't have anything to do with it.
They're my enemy, and I choose my enemies pretty, they have to be pretty bad, okay?
They go down, it kind of makes my day.
I'm not proud of it, I'm telling you the truth.
Donald Trump got tormented by not only MSNBC, but NBC News.
And all three other of the networks did the same thing.
Okay?
All right.
He didn't do anything other than get tormented.
Now he's sitting in Mar-Lago, President-elect,
and the tormentors are all going to be out of work.
Every one of them.
That's called passive retribution.
I don't know if he's feeling good about it.
I don't even know if he knows about it.
But that's the memo.
cabinet madness new appointees here they are linda mcmann she's a wrestling person i made her money there
dr oz head of medicare and medicaid uh linda mcman had education
howard luttnick commerce secretary matthew whittaker u.s ambassador in the nato um nothing much
there in those uh picks uh there is a poll well morning consult 2,100885
registered voters about what do you think of Trump's nominees, cabinet nominees. Here they are.
Mike Huckabee, 44% approved, 31 disapproved. Marko Rubio, Secretary of State, 45 approved, 34 disapproved.
Elise Stefatic, the Congresswoman, 38 approved, 29 disapprove, ambassador to the United Nations.
Stephen Miller, the most powerful man in Washington.
Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, 36% approved, 30 disapprove.
Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, 39% approved, 33 disapprove.
And the Wall Street Journal is really on Tulsi Gabbard's case.
They don't want her at all.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Secretary of Health and Human Services, 44 approved.
39 disapproved.
Ramoswamy and Musk, they're not appointees to cabinet positions, they're advisors.
Ramoswami's got 39% approved, 34 disapproved, Musk got 45 approved, 40 disapproved.
So it's like a five-point gap in this poll, and it's all politics.
So joining us now is our pal John McLaughlin from upstate New York.
He is the pollster for Donald Trump.
and he has brand new, just out today, exit polling information for us.
First of all, I get a lot of mail-looking, how do you do this?
How do you do it?
So you polled a thousand voters earlier this month.
How does that go down?
Just briefly.
Well, that was between the fourth and the sixth.
We did a thousand voters who voted in the election.
either earlier on election day.
And it's the one poll we can't get wrong
because we have voter lists.
We call them ahead of time.
We know what the results are.
And we get to target and wait it by the actual results.
How do you get a voter list?
How do you get a voter list?
They exist.
They're databases.
There's databases of all Americans, consumers, et cetera.
But every secretary of state and every state keeps a voter list.
It's updated.
There's companies that sell you the data.
I have to pay for the samples.
The Republican Party uses certain people.
They have a company called Data Trust that keeps their data.
There's other ones like I-360, et cetera.
They have every voter in the country.
And we know like 5,000 to 7,000 pieces of information on each voter.
We have a database.
So you got 50 states, but you only have a thousand recipients.
So you get every state in there, or what do you do?
Yes, we do.
Some states like Alaska, get one or two.
calls, that's about it. But you proportionate it by the actual vote, by the way it came out.
Like you had mentioned that there were 153 million votes so far. There was just under
160 million in 2020, and we know who those voters are. There's 90 million more people
that were eligible that still didn't vote. And but they're eligible and they're out there
and, you know, so we know who they are too. But Donald Trump won this race decisively.
Okay. And I don't think anybody quibbles with that. I think that that is a known
in fact, thank God for the country.
We didn't want to go through what we went through in 20.
Okay, so the first headline, and you correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just going by what our
researchers came up with, is that the primary reason Donald Trump was elected was the high
prices in America.
People are suffering because of that.
Is that true?
Top issue, without a doubt, four or five voters said they were negatively impacted by
at half, struggling to just get by.
Okay.
So if that's the case, why didn't the Democratic Party know that?
Because they stayed away from that totally.
They caused it.
They caused the inflation.
I know they caused it, but they could have made an excuse that COVID did this and somebody did that.
Putin did it.
You know how they are.
But they just stayed away from it.
They tried.
Remember, she had a plan.
They were going to go after price couch, you know, et cetera like that.
More big socialism.
All right.
So they basically punted on.
that, the Democrats, and people recognize they had no solution, no known solution for this high
prices. The second one was the reason that people voted for Kamala Harris wasn't for her
is because they hated Trump.
Right. And that's what our exepal said, were virtually, they were running a negative
campaign. She didn't stand for anything. Trump, on the other hand, we were running a campaign,
remember, he was ahead. When we won the nomination,
in record style.
I mean, it was like bigger than Reagan, bigger than anything else, blow away nomination.
He was ahead of Biden then.
And then he made the lead so much bigger that Biden, they forced them out.
And what he did was he maintained that lead a week out from the election,
at a conversation with him.
I said, you know, Mitt Romney was ahead by a point at this point at this stage in the popular vote.
He ended up losing.
And Trump told me he's not Mitt Romney.
And I said, you just got to make your puts.
We've been ahead since the primaries, we're going to go ahead, and you have to just keep on driving it on the issues, reducing inflation, securing the border, lowering crime, ending the endless wars, and he ran on the issues.
And his job approval in our post-election survey, which is on our website, McLaughlin Online.com, he had a 56% positive job approval, only 43 negative.
Harris was a minus one. Biden was like a minus six.
When was that? When was that approval?
rating when did you post it that was we it's on our website now that's from that no but was that before
the vote or after the vote that was after the vote before the vote in the battleground states
we had him we had uh Donald Trump positive net positive on his job rating and Harris was a 43
approved 53 disapproved so we set up a contrast that Donald Trump could solve these problems do the
job and she was she was part of the problem she was
was Joe Biden. She was Joe Biden's vice president. Yeah, she couldn't make any progress off
him because he doesn't disagree with anything he did. Now, your survey shows abortion was
hardly an issue at all in this thing, even though the media tried to ramp that up, folks,
6% nothing. Right, because Donald Trump stayed in character. I mean, he basically, he stood
where he stood during the primaries, when he was president, et cetera. He was going to leave it up
to the states decide the Democrats poured probably a billion dollars into and saying we were
going to have a national abortion ban.
It wasn't true.
The voters read through that.
Plus, they had other more serious problems that they could see, you know, I said to anyone
if they were undecided on election day, go to the supermarket, go look at your rent,
get a utility bill, look at your mortgage, decide who you're voting.
But no doubt about it.
It was the economy that drove it.
Now, you were right on in everything.
that you predicted all your surveys, all of that.
Did Trump thank you?
Did he give you a bonus?
Did he call and say, hey, why don't you and your family go to Tahiti for a couple of weeks on me?
I mean, what did he do?
Well, we haven't spoken lately because I'm not looking for a job.
Everybody else.
I know.
I got my job.
I got my best.
My goal was to make your predictions come true because you were giving them good advice.
I would give him good advice.
good advice. I mean, I'm a nonpartisan advice giver, but he sometimes didn't think I gave him
good advice because I don't just knee-jerk it. You know, I'm not a choir master here. But
I followed, you're giving me credit, but I followed your lead in the sense that you must have
been on a half dozen times since September 10th, okay? And every time you're on, you were very
specific, which puts you apart from most of these bloviators that work in the policies.
And what you said bore out.
I can't, I'm looking at your sheet here on the exit polling.
So you must be a Swami or something because you hit it.
No, we just asked the American voters.
We have inside information.
If you do the polls in an unbiased fashion, and if you look at what the people are saying,
you always talk about the people.
When the folks tell us that their top issue is inflation,
and they're worried about immigration, and they're worried about crime,
and they're worried about wars.
And if you've got the candidate that can solve those problems,
because that's why Donald Trump was running.
He cares deeply about the country.
He's patriotic.
He wants to go back to the good policies that he had as president,
and he's going to do a better job this time.
I hope so.
But he's got to be a little bit more contemplative
before he dives into waters that are going to muddy his agenda.
That's just my opinion.
But let's get back to you.
So you say, okay, it's easy and you're saying that, but I'm going to, after you disappear from
our program and we say goodbye, I'm going to run down all the polls that are wrong, okay?
And a lot of them, most of them were wrong.
So if you say it's easy and we, ah, the folks are, what are these pinheads doing when
they got it so wrong?
Are they dishonest, in your opinion?
By the way, it's not easy.
You have to be careful how you do it, statistics as an inexact science, I got an MBA and
If you're careful and you know what you're doing and you have some experience how to read public opinion, it was right there.
And it was really, I'm only as good as the people I work for.
And Donald Trump, as you said it, was a historic president.
You're going to have to add a whole other chapter that may be longer at the end of your book.
Well, I'll do something on it.
But he doesn't know, in my opinion, or if he does, he hasn't stated it.
How remarkable.
That's the word.
what he accomplished is in the context of history.
I know.
Maybe someday you, me, and him can have some supper.
And, you know.

Say, do you have any idea what you pulled off here?
Now, when you say what he pulled off,
it sounds like he's a genius and this and he may be.
But it was the folks who did it.
But nobody has come close in this country or any other country that I can see, all right, to what he accomplished.
You know, right.
It's a stunning story.
No, you're exactly right, because in 2016, I compared him to Andrew Jackson.
And he said, 1824, said, no, 1828.
But that was the election where Jackson had, he'd beat the.
establishment, the Republican establishment, he beat the Washington establishment.
Yeah, it'd be Quincy and the boys. Right. But it wasn't close to this because Jackson
didn't have a hostile media and a hostile infrastructure in Washington, both working against
him in dishonest ways. Jackson didn't have that because he would have shot them dead. He would
have kicked the door into the Tennessee newspaper and just shot all of them if they had done that.
John, you're the best. I've got to tell you, I've got to tell my audience, man, if I ever have
any need for any poll, you're the guy I'm going to. So congratulations for all your success.
And Trump should be sent in you and your family to Tahiti. And I'm going to train them.
That's okay. I'll see you next season at a Yankee game.
All right. See you later. Join us now.
West Palm Beach, Florida, Eric Bowling. And he is on Rumble, YouTube.
all over the place with a presentation called bowling.
At first, I thought it was 10 pins,
but then I realized it was political commentary named after him.
To be a while, I had my bowling shirt and shoes on to watch bowling,
but I didn't need them.
Before we get into your opinion on the cabinet stuff,
and it is hysteria officially now,
what is your percentage of agreement with the Trump administration?
Are you 100%? Are you 75?
Where are you on that?
Well, Bill, really good to be back with you.
I want to wish you a happy 50th golden anniversary.
You've been married to the media for 50 years.
I believe it's golden.
Where am I with Trump?
If you remember in 2015 and 2016, early on at Fox News,
I was probably the only on-air talent who said Trump is going to be.
the next president. There are others that came along later. Hannity is a well-known. He's a friend of my
well-known eventual Trump supporter, Mark Levin, the same thing. But they were Ted Cruz guys. And so
I've known Trump for the better part of 30 years as you have, and I just saw the businessman.
So where am I with Trump? I line up, let's say I line up almost perfectly with his ideology.
I'm a, you know, a newer school, America First, MAGA type versus the more traditional Republican type, you know, the Mitt Romney's, the George Bushies, and those types.
So I would say ideologically, I line up perfectly with him.
I'm a friend of his during the first administration.
It was not unusual to get a phone call at night from the White House saying the president wants to have a chat with you.
And I would take the call, whether I'm in bed and sleeping, it didn't matter.
I've been to the White House dozens of times to meet with him and talk to him.
If that's the question, that's where I stand.
Okay.
Is there anything that you have criticized him for, say, in this campaign?
Yes.
There is one issue that I've criticized him for in the first one, and this one.
I'm against escalating fees and tariffs against foreign countries.
So a business issue, okay.
Indeed.
All right.
But all of the cabinet pictures.
you're okay with them. No problem with any of them?
Well, let's put it this way. I believe that the American people have given Donald Trump president 47.
That's the bad answer. Come on, stop. I'm talking to you, Eric Bowling.
It's relevant, though. Bill, you and I go away back. This is relevant. They gave him a mandate.
It doesn't matter who. You're a political commentator. You shouldn't be swayed by any voting or anything like that.
Should make up your own mind and give your opinion to the people. I'm scolding you now.
I think, I think, I think, of the cabinet person that you don't approve.
prove of?
Maybe Howard Lutnik, maybe it would be the only one.
Another economic, another economic.
Yeah, well, yeah, but for reasons that you may or may not.
Do you understand at this morning console, Paul, and that's a left-wing outfit morning
console, okay, that the only, only cabinet person underwater is Matt Gates.
Do you understand why?
Of course, I understand why.
What would that? Why is the underwater?
Because the media hates Matt Gates. They've hated him straight through.
He's been a Trump loyalist from 2016 straight through. There's no varying on his loyalty to Donald Trump.
He also went after, you know, he was instrumental, probably the most instrumental voice that got rid of Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy's gavel.
Was that a good thing?
From his dying. Of course it was a good thing.
It was a good thing to dump. Where, wait, wait, wait. Why was it a good thing?
thing to dump McCarthy. It seemed to me that he was a fairly effective speaker whereby I had
access to both sides of the house. Why was it good to dump him? Because there's a clear
divide in the Republican Party, as you know, since Donald Trump came along. There's the old school
establishment wing of the party, and that was Kevin McCarthy, the Bushes, the Romneys, the
roves. They're all together in a type. And then there came Donald Trump, which was a new
conservative. Yeah, but he had a good relationship with Trump. I mean, their buddies.
Not really. You don't believe that. You don't believe that. You don't believe that.
You don't believe that. You think Trump in McCarthy, I mean, clearly, Trump got along with Mitch McConnell as well as he possibly could, too.
But there's no loss between McConnell and McConnell and Trump. McConnell detested Donald Trump, and it was obvious.
McCarthy did. He detested the same way. Well, no, no, come on. We disagree on that.
McCarthy knew he needed Donald Trump's approval to get anything done.
And I think grabbing the gavel out of McCarthy and handing it to Speaker Johnson was an upgrade.
I'm not saying it's perfect, but it was an upgrade.
All right.
I'm not going to quibble with that.
I didn't like, I thought McCarthy did his job.
And Gates was after him.
And he has a right to do it.
I'm not saying he didn't have a right to do it.
All right.
So my beef with Gates isn't about all these accusations that the dishonest media is, because you are innocent to prove that's due process.
And I give the former congressman due process.
He's going to get murdered when the House Ethics Committee comes out.
You know that.
It's going to be horrible.
And he's not going to be able to survive that.
He's not going to be the Attorney General.
But my beef is he's not qualified to be the Attorney General.
he's not he's never done a job like that it's a humongous agency that needs to be drained from
top the bottom yeah he can go in and throw grenades but what's he going to build it up with
he doesn't have that kind of law enforcement experience is am i wrong well look you said two things
there and you blew past the first one that he's going to get destroyed when the house ethics committee
report gets revealed the hacker has already allegedly revealed it but again bill you said
earlier you're innocent until proven guilty the investigation has been dropped he cannot be held
accountable for anything in that no not legally but in the consummated with the guilty verdict
but you know how the court of public opinion is so there's just no way the only way he gets
that job is a recess appointment which if trump does that he'll alienate a lot of republicans
in the senate i see i disagree with you on that bill i disagree you i disagree you think where
Wait, wait. You think Gates is going to get through the Senate? Confirmed?
I do. And let me explain why. You and I've been doing this. I've been doing it 25 years. You've been doing twice as long. But you know the minute someone's elected, whether it's a house member, senator or dog freaking catcher, the minute they're elected, they're looking for their next re-election. They're looking for donors. They care about those positions. Trump's got four years. So Senate seats are six-year appointments. So anyone over the next four years that comes up does not.
not want to get into the buzz saw that is Donald Trump right now, the mandate that he's got.
If you take down one of this important, he'll take care.
There are some senators who will go along to get along, okay?
There are.
But there are enough dissenters in there that he's not going to get confirmed.
And I'll privately, I heard Lisa.
I'll privately make a bet with you for charity, of course.
Now, the other guy is Bobby Kennedy Jr.
So, I mean, he did a great job in New York.
leaning up the Hudson River, people have forgotten about that.
So he does have some administrative skill, RFK Jr. does.
But his conspiracy theories, and they're going to ram those down his throat in the Senate confirmation.
Some of them are so whacked out, it's just impossible to believe a responsible
adult could actually say that stuff.
And I don't see him getting through either.
Interesting you bring Bobby Kennedy up, by the way, both friends of my Matt Gates
and Bobby Kennedy need full transparency here.
I just texted Robert half an hour ago, not about this.
So Robert Kennedy Jr., Robert Kennedy's father was appointed Attorney General at 30-something
years old by John F. Kennedy with absolutely no experience to be Attorney General.
So let's just lay the groundwork for all the Democrats saying Gates doesn't have the experience
to be Attorney General.
But Bobby Kennedy has said he's not against all vaccines.
He just wants more research, though.
We want to say whatever he wants now.
But there's a tape a mile long of him saying whacked out things about not just vaccines,
but other stuff as well.
And again, he's got a better chance than Gates to get through.
But I don't think either of them are going to get through.
So can I just ask you your basis is that they're not qualified of things they've said.
Let's take Lloyd Austin as the defense secretary.
No, no, that's a what about it.
Uber qualified, but failed miserably at the job.
Of course.
There wasn't one cabinet member, not one, in the entire Biden administration for four years,
that did anything to help this country.
Not one.
So qualifications don't mean you're going to be successful in job.
Maybe a commitment to the boss's vision is more important.
Number one, Trump is making a mistake because he's creating turbulence with some of these picks
that he doesn't have to create.
Pam Bondi should be the AG.
She ran Florida as the Attorney General.
She's loyal to Trump.
She's smart.
And I mean, it's not even close between her qualification and Gates.
And I can give you 10 in Health and Human Services that have more experience and are more focused than RFK.
What Trump likes to do is blow things up and create all of this controversy.
He loves it.
He lives for it.
But I'm forbidding that in this time, you just won so big, you don't need to do.
Let's have some calm until your inauguration.
And then, you know, all hell is going to break loose after that.
Last word.
My last word is we've done that before.
And what Trump is basically telling the world, Democrats, even establishment Republican types,
said that it's his four years and he's going to do whatever the hell he wants.
Yeah, there are probably more qualified people in every single position, including Secretary of Defense.
defense, but Trump is telling the world it's his policy. It's his, it's his ball now. You want to play
ball? You're going to have to play in my stadium. In fact, all the referees are named Trump in my
stadium. It's like going into Kansas City and trying to beat the chiefs when every referee has
the last name of Holmes. So, by the way, that attitude can cut both ways. It can be good.
He's a disruptor. Bill, he's a disruptor. And disruptors disrupt. But a, a, it's a, it.
In order to be great presidents, after the disruption,
you have to work for the people in an effective way.
And you need good people to do that.
Eric Bowling, you check them out on.
I will call you about that bet.
Okay, you're gonna get it.
And then I'm gonna gloat.
I'm gonna gloat when you lose.
Okay, that's good.
All right.
So there's a whole bunch of follow-up stuff here.
I don't like to see anybody lose their job,
even if I don't like those.
people, but some of them, they're so destructive that it's a good thing. The big headline here is
this is passive retribution for Donald Trump. The people that hate him the most have all destroyed
themselves. Trump did anything to do with it. Okay? I don't know how he sees it, but that's how
I see it. So you know the story about Joe Scarborough's wife, Mika Brzynski, they go to
the Mar-a-Lago and all that. I told you about that yesterday. I told you what happened, why it
happened. Oh, I'm not going to go over it again. But there's been ferocious backlash by both
the right and the left on morning Joe and the wife. I mean ferocious. Rosie O'Donald was an
interesting study. Go.
So Mika and Joe went down to Marlago to kiss the ring.
It's the last time I ever watched Morning Joe, period.
End of statement.
Unreal.
Unreal.
For months, you were telling us he's the worst thing that could happen to this country and democracy.
Then you go kiss his ring.
Despicable.
Despicable you.
Both of you.
Are you surprised?
Mr. O'Donnell, are you surprised?
Come on.
It's all about money.
Yeah?
Smart life.
Let's get back to good news.
Smart life.
So by this time, with a week to go, you should have your Thanksgiving dinner plan.
I got the turkey last night.
I carried the turkey.
And the Terra Dog is confused.
Holly is a Terri Dog?
This is a big turkey, and I carried it down to the basement where the big freezer is,
and I plopped it down, butterball.
All right.
And we always get the guest turkey we can get.
So there is a study by Campbell, the food company.
What sides on Thanksgiving do Americans like best?
And here they are.
Stuffing.
All right.
I like that sausage stuffing.
That's number one.
Got to have, you're going to have turkey, you've got to have stuffing.
Mashed potatoes, of course.
And then sweet potatoes.
I have them both.
That's a lot of potatoes.
A little butter on them.
Ooh, ooh.
Sweet potatoes are good for you, mashed potatoes.
You've got to be careful.
All right.
Green bean casserole.
I just like the green beans.
I don't need the casserole.
I like the beans.
Mac and cheese.
No.
We're not doing mac and cheese in the O'Reilly House on Thanksgiving.
Not doing that.
Okay?
Here's what we're doing instead.
Turnips.
I never thought I'd say that word on television.
For some reason, I love these turps with butter on them, little salt and pepper on them.
And it's actually healthy, not too much butter.
So we got turnips coming on.
And a lot of people don't like turnips.
I know that.
And I don't know how, I got, I'm not a big broccoli guy.
And then, you know, I do get the veggies.
I mean, I eat the asparagus and the beans and all that, because you have to, if you want to live long.
But anyway, mac and cheese, no.
A couple of other things out of the survey, 56% like the sides better than the turkey.
Okay?
And 38% just eat the sides.
They don't want the turkey at all.
It's the size.
And it's healthy.
You know, it's kind of vegetarian thing.
going on there. Anyway, we want you to have a very nice Thanksgiving. It's an important day.
And I'm going to get into this a little bit more in the final thought, okay?
All right, here is the final thought of the day. So there are 40 days left in this year.
That's it. 24, which will be a remarkable year in American history because of the election.
But it's gone. Next week is a total right-off. It used to be that people would,
would work two and a half days and now everybody's off nobody's dead's turkey football blah blah
blah blah so the next week's the cipher and yeah if you want to go get crushed you can go to the mall
and have all of that you know but then um starting on let's see the first is uh september
the third of december monday i think it is three weeks christmas and that's a week less
than people usually have to prepare.
So you've got to get in that mindset.
Now, I'm not watching a dopey Christmas movies
on the Hallmark Channel.
I can't. I can't.
There's only so much fake snow
that any human beings should absorb.
I can't watch it.
I can't listen yet
to the radio playing holly jolly Christmas
or holly-golly Christmas.
Burrow lives, I'm sorry, Burrow.
If I never hear that song again,
I'm fine with it.
Can't do that now.
But you've got to be.
a plan. Because those three weeks, after next week, a blur. Plan it, down, take an hour, sit down,
pen and pad. It will make your life so much better if you do. And the key is to write down
the names of the people that you want to give gifts to. And then execute the gift giving,
which is why we got this bundle of books for you, because that's 14 books. You can knock out
pretty much the whole list. And you don't have to like me. The books are great. Even the far left
loons, you know, there's no ideology in the books. So there's 40 days left in a year. It's going to
bang, like that, plan, plan, plan. But the final thing I want to tell you here and the final
thought is have fun. You got to have some fun. You know, been too much tension with the election,
in a politic right who deep breath you deserve to have some fun right and you got to plan the fun
sometimes spontaneity yeah works but sometimes but most all you got to plan okay thank you for
watching and listening to the no spin news we'll have a sunday column i think on the media on the
collapse of left wing media i think that's what i'm going to do on sunday but i could change
Don't forget the YouTube channel with more in-depth on Mr. Gets, Mr. Gates, and we will see you again on Monday.
