Starting point is 00:00:00 So I write a message of the day, and again, I hope you go to Bill O'Reilly.com and read it every morning. No charge, free for all. And basically excoriating Iran for funding and enabling Hamas to attack Israel and kill civilians. Now, I believe that's true. Well, today, CNN comes out and says, no, it's not true. Ron did have anything to do with it? I go, what? So CNN is using anonymous sources, of course, and I'm going to analyze this, and it's fascinating. So I hope you hang tough, and that is the subject of this evening's talking points, memo. All right, so let's run this down. The Amos terror attack is affecting the whole world. Everybody's engaged. I don't know how much
Starting point is 00:01:07 the Chinese people know about it because the government censors everything. In Russia, there's so many people who have ties to Israel that everybody knows. So there are a number of things in play. The United States has done and said the right things. As Joe Biden said once again today, we've got to back Israel. Roll the tape. There is no justification for terrorism, no excuse, and the type of terrorism was exhibited here is just beyond the pale. Beyond the pale. As I said yesterday, my commitment to Israel's security and the safety of the Jewish people is unshakable.
Starting point is 00:01:49 But Mr. Biden will not ask, I should say, answer any specific questions. So he could have taken questions there, but he ran away. He said he had to take a phone call from Netanyahu, which could have been scheduled anytime, believe me. So Biden doesn't want to get involved with the, what am I going to do? Questions. He just doesn't want to do it. And he didn't mention Iran and hasn't mentioned it at all. Okay, so CNN's giving Biden cover now by saying, look, it was in Iran, and we know that because somebody told us.
Starting point is 00:02:24 You know, okay. Who was that person? Nah, see, it's anonymous sources. Look, I could be wrong here, but the odds that Iran didn't enable this terror attack and war are about 10 to 1. How do I know that? Because I wrote killing the killers. And I know what Iran does. And I know how Donald Trump neutralized Iran.
Starting point is 00:02:54 And it was very, very severe. So, as you may know, and we go through this and killing the killers, those three books back, by the way. Soleimani, the head of the Iranian National Guard, which is the spear point for terrorism, was assassinated by the U.S. government, by a drone. And we take you step by step through that assassination. Iran did not do anything after Soleimani got whacked. They said they were going to, but they didn't. Why? Because Donald Trump, President of the United States, spoke to the Mullah, who's in charge over there.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Homanie, somebody, said, you do anything, any overt military action against the United States. We're going to blow up all your ports. And if you look at the map, there was about four ports where Iran gets food. Iran cannot feed itself. It's a desert. Has to import food. Okay. Trump was very blunt.
Starting point is 00:04:02 He said, you do anything, we're destroying all your ports, you'll starve. That's what happened. I know that's what happened. So they didn't do anything, Iran. Enter Joe Biden, who is much softer than Trump. I think even if you hate Trump's guts and you love Biden, Biden, that statement is absolutely accurate. Biden's soft.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Afghanistan. You know what happened. Putin didn't do anything other than, you know, the internet behind-the-scenes stuff. When Trump is president, Trump's not president, Putin invades Ukraine. Why? Because they know Biden's soft. Everybody knows he's soft. Nobody fears him.
Starting point is 00:04:47 Nobody. So what Biden did was when he came in, He didn't knock the sanctions out, economic sanctions against Iran. He just didn't enforce them vigilantly. And then he gave the Iranian $6 billion that was frozen money, that was their money, that was frozen, in exchange for American hostages. You all know that. Now, the right wing and the Republican Party says that entered into Iran's enabling of Hamas. that's not true. This operation was on the board, according to very, very good reporting
Starting point is 00:05:27 since August, long before the money for hostages swap. But it does give Iran access to money sometime. They don't have it now. It's in a bank and gutter. It's overseen. Gutter's not going to release it unless the United States gives a go. Biden probably will do down the road. Anyway, so you're dealing with a situation now where Hamas is a terror group and designated a terror group. Okay, so the U.S. government says, Moss is a terror group. That means if the U.S. government wanted to assassinate anybody in Amas, he could legally. All right. Okay. So again, I go back to where are they going to rockets? I'm building them. Can't build them. Don't have any of that.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Okay? Where are they getting the guns? Where are they getting the training their fighters? Got to be done in Iran. There's no other place in the Middle East they could do it. And they float the weapons through the Mediterranean. Gaza's on the coast. There's no port security in Gaza. It's run by Hamas. Moss runs it. So the boats come in, they unload the rockets, boom, boom, bo, boom. That's how it goes down. money. You mustn't have any money. Iran funds everything. So CNN says no, no. Okay. They say what they say. Wall Street Journal, much more authoritative, says Iran's behind it. Now, I don't know. I've been talking to a lot of people, but I can't show you definite proof. And as I said, if it bears out somehow that Iran had nothing to do with this, I'll apologize. But I find that extremely hard to believe. And that's the memo.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Now, it is not a good time, as I predicted in August for Joe Biden this autumn. Let's run it down. Wholesale prices rose in September, fastest pace since April. 2.2% inflation. So all this does is make it harder for working Americans to make ends meet. I always say, Biden's going to be running against the grocery. store. That's who he's run against. The grocery store. You know what you're paying. Paying a lot more than you paid under Trump. Period. Now, the left and the Democratic Party
Starting point is 00:07:58 make all excuses, they can pettifog the issue. It's bull. You walk in, you buy what you need, you pay, you're paying more. Pay more for gas, pay more for heating, pay more for insurance premiums, a lot more for insurance premiums. Okay? That's it. But inflation's on the rise Again, the second thing is there is a group called the America First Legal Foundation. This is interesting. I didn't know about this group. America First Legal Foundation files a Freedom of Information Act against the National Archives. Pretty interesting, right?
Starting point is 00:08:35 So the National Archives logs in all the emails and calls made by the president. That's why they know if they don't have the paper like they didn't have for Trump and Biden, who took documents and put them in their personal houses, both of them did, National Archives knows that. All right, so it's a record. That's the way the government keeps track of the executive branch. Well, apparently the archives, National Library, was hiding the fact that there are more than 20,000 emails between Vice President Biden, under Obama, of course, and Hunter Biden's business operations, 20,000.
Starting point is 00:09:20 And they got this because they filed a freedom of information. And the National Archives had to give it to them. Didn't want to give it to them, how to give it to them. So now we harked back to Biden saying, oh, I didn't have anything to do with my son's business. Oh, yeah? 20,000 emails going into not only Hunter, but your brother Jim, all of the people working for them that were making the money overseas, $20,000. Now, the House investigative committees should go through those $20,000.
Starting point is 00:10:00 All right? I don't know what they actually handed over to America first, but this is a really interesting story. So that's on top of the inflation. Not a good day for Biden. 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.
Starting point is 00:10:36 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, 5576, or text Bill. to 998899. Again, that's 866-326-5576-5576 or text bill to 998899.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays. Every morning, I'll bring you the stories that matter, plus the news people actually talk about, the juicy details in the worlds of politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between. It's what you want from the New York. York Post wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast
Starting point is 00:11:43 podcast. Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Joining us now, probably the best guess I could have gotten today, and it was luck as we booked them last week before this happened. Heraldo Rivera has been to Israel and the surrounding area of scores of times, more than me. He's half-jured. Jewish Rivera is. He's half Puerto Rican, half Jewish, very interesting combo. And here he is, joining us from Cleveland. Hey, Bill. So where am I going wrong, Geraldo? What did I say that you didn't agree with it? I didn't find disagreement with anything you said, Bill. I think maybe you could have spent a little more time on the barbarity.
Starting point is 00:12:38 of the crime inflicted on Israel, what provoked this current round of violence, which you obviously correctly point out as been going on for 2,000 years, certainly since the creation of Israel in 1948. But what happened in this music festival and the surrounding areas in Israel at the end of the High Holy Days,
Starting point is 00:13:06 50 years almost to the day from the Yom Kippur War of 1973, which was my first taste of war in Israel. I covered the 1973 Yom Kippur War, and almost everything in between, been to Gaza many times. There's a discussion to be had about Israel's militaristic government and all the other points you made. But right now, what I focus on are babies being mutilated and women being raped and, you know, people being beheaded, hostages taken. The other, I believe, and I listened with interest to your analysis of the Wall Street Journal investigation that claims that Iran helped plan this. But if so, they help plan one of the most hideous mass murders, the worst slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust. That has to be given the kind of attention. You know, when is that ever justified?
Starting point is 00:14:21 Okay. Let me stop you. Nobody's justifying. Nobody can except the loons. The people that I said are not even worth speaking with. But the network news and the cable news have covered the atrocities. newspapers front page. Everybody knows what this is. But you're not surprised that Iran would foster this, Herald. You're not surprised. I know you're not. Well, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I don't know what I don't know. And I don't know exactly how Iran, this rogue Shiite nation with nuclear aspirations and now the principal troublemaker around the world, I don't know what specific role. How could I? But I do know that Mossad, an intelligence agency I have deep experience with, these agents in Mossad could tell me, could pinpoint for me during, for instance, the Lebanon war in 1981, 82, 83. Mossad led me to the right guy, the right block in Beirut. And how this wanted intelligence agency could, could. miss. I know. The muscle of a thousand. It's shocking. And the CIA as well, because they're there in force. That has to be explained. Now, I want to advance the story a little bit. So you have the far left progressive movement in the United States, anti-Israel. Now, I'm not going to say they're anti-Semitic personally, but they're anti-Israel. And they always have been, it's a hallmark of this progressive movement.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Many American Jews are very liberal, extremely so. Jeffrey Katzenberg is the spear point behind Biden's re-election. How do you process that? Does that offend you that the progressive movement is so anti-Israel? I think that it's very important to note they are kind of generational aspects to this. But right now on college campuses all across this country, your analysis is spot on. There is an anti-Israel movement that is very troubling. It's somewhat understandable, I believe, given the history of the last 10, 20 years. It is very troubling.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Sometimes anti-Semitism and anti-Israel or anti-Zionism get mushed up, get mixed up. People are sometimes expressing hatred of Netanyahu's government in Israel, and they're not anti-Semitic. Other times, anti-Semitism is the motivating, there is, anti-Semitism is one of the primal characteristics, it seems to me, of Western Mac. It is very troubling to me. I think that incidents like what had just happened, you saw in London, I'm sure, the protest, the anti-Israeli protest in London and many other places, you also saw support for Israel. So what I come down is I say, you can be anti-Zionist, you can be anti-Netanyahu, but don't be anti-Semitic.
Starting point is 00:17:52 That's a good point. But they don't know the difference. I mean, these are ignorant people. In London, Arabs outnumbered Jews 10 to 1. Arabs have taken over 40% of people who live in London are foreign nationals. And I can tell you, I was in Mayfair on Saturday, which is the most exclusive part, the oldest part of London. The Saudis run it.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Saudi embassy is there. All the restaurants are Saudi, they run the whole thing. But the hatred is, the last question I have for you, this is never going to end. It's 2,000 years in the making, the Arabs and the Jews, okay? A segment of the Arab population, the militants want to kill the Jews, and they don't want to expel them. I want to kill them, okay? And the Jews, in response to not only that, but the Holocaust and all the other mass murders, they face throughout history, are ultra-defensive. And aren't going to give anybody any quarter that they feel are a threat.
Starting point is 00:18:55 There's no solution here, but the United States has to back, all right, the people who are most important to us, and that is Israel. Last word. I agree. I add this, not in disagreement, but it's supplemented. the Palestinian people have to have long-term after this is resolved and the perpetrators of this crime punished. They have to have a future. Because what else are you going to do with two million people crammed into an area, you know, just twice the size of Washington, D.C. Two million people is the most densely populated place on Earth.
Starting point is 00:19:44 That's Gaza. And you have the West Bank. must go back to the U.S. stated position of George W. Bush, going back to George H.W. Bush, a two-state solution living side by side. I'm not an idealist. I am a realist. I know that the road to there is fought with obstacles, but everyone has to know that that's the American position. And if that were possible, if that were possible, that would be a solution. It is not. The militants on the Arab side don't want it. They don't want it. And if you're a Ghazan and you speak to that, you're dead.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Remember that. All right. Heraldo Rivera, there he is. And we appreciate it. Rodo. Good to see you. Thank you. Power, politics and the people behind the headlines.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. There's a new book that caught my eye. It's called Crime, Inc.
Starting point is 00:21:56 How Democrats Employ Mafia and Gangster Tactics to Gain and Hold Power. Okay, the author is Vince Everett Ellison, joins us from Lynchburg, Virginia. Now, there is your book called My Eyes because I wrote Killing the Mob. and I know the tactics that organized crime uses. So when I saw this, I go, all right, let's see what he's got. Give me your most vivid example of how the Democratic Party uses mafia techniques. Thank you for having me, Bill. And one of the, I guess the best example, one of the best examples is that the mob makes money doing hits.
Starting point is 00:22:35 They kill people for a living and they make money from it. Well, the Democratic Party does the same thing. they call there's Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood kills babies. They get money, and then they give campaign contributions to the Democrat Party. Also, the mafia controls the unions. They use it for laundering money.
Starting point is 00:22:53 They use it for kickbacks. The Democrats do the same thing. The Democrats give money to the teachers' unions. The teachers' unions then would give to the teachers. Teachers give to the unions, and the unions give campaign contributions back to the Democratic Party. It's just classic money laundering. And then also the cartels do trafficking, they traffic sex trafficking, they traffic
Starting point is 00:23:14 fentanyl, and the Democratic Party, each one of those cartels have the K Street lawyer that gives contributions to the Democratic Party, and they leave the border open. And the fentanyl and the sex trafficking and the human trafficking comes across the border, and they're together hand in glove. That's just one of the few examples of how the Democratic Party and the mob view the same tactics. Let me debrief you on all three of those. The first one is Planned Parenthood. You have to understand that the donations,
Starting point is 00:23:39 Planned Parenthood get are voluntary from Americans who believe in abortion. No, the Democratic Party funds Planned Parenthood with federal money. Millions of dollars. They shut down the government. They threatened to shut down the government if the Republicans took it out of the budget. That's the fact. None of the money that comes from the federal government to Planned Parenthood can go for abortions.
Starting point is 00:24:03 That's the high to me. It's fungible, bill. It's fungible. They take the money that they would use to pay the light bill. they're using for abortion. That's all I'm trying to tell you is. They say it, but they do. I think your union thing is better than the Planned Parenthood thing. No, the Planned Parenthood thing is right on because they will not, they will not stop abortion because the Planned Parenthood also gives them campaign contributions.
Starting point is 00:24:24 98% of all of the campaign contributions from Planned Parenthood goes to the Democrat Party. Okay. And the Democratic Party also gives them hundreds of millions of dollars in federal money for the abortion clinics. There it is, money laundering to kill babies. I don't know about money laundering. wondering, it's a quid pro quo, the money flows back and forth, but it has to be, it has to be legal in the way it's given. Well, okay, well, also it is legal because the Democrat Party controls the politics. They won't let
Starting point is 00:24:53 become illegal. Well, Trump had four years where he could have right an executive order to stop some of this, and he did. But they filibustered it in the Senate, remember? Schumer and for long, that Schumer's filibustered in the Senate, and they were going to shut down the government, shut it down because they wanted to take out $500 million in Planned Parenthood funding. They were going to shut down the whole government to protect that's funding. Well, you know, the Republican Party should call them bluff. That's what it should have happened. Well, no, they fellin' right up.
Starting point is 00:25:20 No, they filibustered. They said we won't pass it. I understand what they did, Everett, but you have to fight them right there. Now, let's go to the cartel. You can't fight a further subject. You have to bust it with 60 votes. If you don't have 60 votes, you can't, you can't bust it. They didn't have 60 votes.
Starting point is 00:25:38 But they couldn't shut down the government, all right, unless there was a vote in the House that overrode the filibuster in the Senate. And it didn't happen. So let's go to Mexico. What they would have done, they would have to shut the whole government down and allowed everybody else to just go under. So what they did, he just allowed it. But again, the Democrats were the ones that were going to shut the whole government down.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Shut the whole government down to protect landowners. But for every tactic, there is another tactic. And that's what we're talking about. The Republicans are not as organized as a Democrat. Oh, no, no. I agree with you completely on that. But the Democrats were the ones that wanted the money for Planned Parenthood, period. They were the ones that were the ones that were the ones that were going to kill babies up to the ninth month.
Starting point is 00:26:23 We only have a finite time for the interview. Let's go to the cartels. So it is true. Democratic Party supports open borders. And Biden does what the progressive left wants. that enriches the drug and people smugglers or cartels in Mexico. Okay. It doesn't enrich, as far as I can see, the Democratic Party.
Starting point is 00:26:48 It creates more social problems in America where both... That's what the Democratic Party wants, Bill. The more poor people they have, the more crime they have, the more power they have in the inner cities. Look at Chicago. Look at Detroit. Look at Baltimore. They are vastness of crime and the Democrat.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Party controls them. This is an evil institution. They're a criminal organization. They're controlled by the murderers, psychopaths, liars, and anti-Christian bigots. Wherever they go, you have poverty, crime, death, you have it. They love this. A Democrat Party heaven is an American hell. That's why wherever you find this type of poverty, this is where they excel. They want it and they want to spread it. Because the more people have in the situations, the more powerful they are there's no money going in the cartels keep their money now i'm going to guess that your parents and i don't know we're democrats am i right they were but they're not okay all right let's start much so they were democrats at one time because almost 90 percent of
Starting point is 00:27:53 african-americans were democrats at one time my family was democrat because they came right from ireland Okay. Brooklyn, sign right up to the Democratic Party. All right. What has happened, in your opinion, to make a once viable political party, in your opinion, okay, go so far left and take a whole president and administration with that? What has happened? Now the Democratic Party is run by progressives, far left operation, no moderates at all. What happened? Well, the, uh, some of rights movement with Mon Luther King Jr. bought in a lot of communists, a lot of Marxists into the movement, a lot of hippies, dope heads, atheists. After the civil rights movement, they all jumped into the Democrat Party. If you recall in 1968, they tried to take it over
Starting point is 00:28:41 in Chicago. Mayor Daly and the hardheads and the police ran them out. Well, they said the whole world is watching. Saul oninsky said you got three choices. You can either go back and cry, you can either start throwing bombs or you can go back organized and then come back in four years and be the delegates. In 1972, they came back in Miami and they took over. They ran Maradalee out this time. And this is when they bought abortion, atheism, and all this foolishness into the Democratic Party. This is when the Southern white conservatives left it. They didn't leave the Democratic Party because of the civil rights movement.
Starting point is 00:29:12 They left it because the Democrats bought an atheist. They bought in welfare. They bought in government control. And the smartest thing that white conservatives ever did was leave the Democratic Party. Because if they didn't do it, they would be just like black Americans now at the bottom of every socioeconomic statistic in America. But there were restraints, and then they destroyed it. All right, there were restraints, Tip O'Neill, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, there were big, the Kennedy.
Starting point is 00:29:39 They all dead now. Okay. They waited. Nancy Pelosi, Jim Clyburn, Joe Biden. Yeah. They were all part of that group, and they held that party after the 90s for about 30 years, and they turned it into a leftist party. They sat there and waited for Barack Obama.
Starting point is 00:29:56 And when you came in, they slapped it. And it was in. And now it's there. All right. Very provocative, Vince, the author of Crime, Inc. How Democrats employ Mafia. Vince E.Eleason.com. Free E's in the middle.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Vince E.Eleason.com. You can get my books. You can look at my documentary, all of it. Very good, Vince. Thanks for helping us out. Appreciate it. Thank you, Bill. I love you.
Starting point is 00:30:21 So this is out of Black Lives Matter Chicago. I stand with Palestine. There's a hang glider who went into, Israel and those terrorists on the hang gliders killed 260 civilians at a concert. And Black Lives Matter is celebrating them in a poster. So they took the poster down. Of course they had to. And now the Black Lives Matter Global Foundation, this is the one that bought up all the houses with the money.
Starting point is 00:30:49 They say, oh, we're not affiliated with the Chicago BLM. Yeah, you are. They're using the Black Lives Matter tag. If you're not affiliate, sue them. Tell them I can't use the tag. Come on, you bunch of, anyway. All right, let's get on to the corporations. I'll list them one by one, and our research is pretty good.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Axe, Berkshire Hathaway, Coca-Cola, Degree, Gator Aid, Bossa Studios, Warner Brothers Discovery, that's CNN. Warner Brothers Discovery is CNN. Devolver Digital. Digital extremes, little orbit. Again, Black Lives Matter got $100 million at least in donations. We continue, Mojang, Pokemon Company, Bad Robot, Cisco, Microsoft, Intel, Amazon, Anastasia Beverly Hills, BioEssence, Casper.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Finally, Sony Music Group, Door Dash, FashionNobes, Capital Music Group, Warner Music Group, Big Hit Entertainment, George Soros, Spanix, Tom's, Airbnb, Nabisco, Universal Music Group. Now, I'm putting those on the screen so you know what these corporations are doing. have interests in some of these. And I'm just fed up with it. Now, they did it, these corporations, to be woke. That's why they didn't check out Black Lives Matter. From day one, you know I told you it was a grifter group.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Not looking out for anybody, which has been proven true. All of the money that went in went to buy homes for the people in the group. Oh, you can see how agitated I get. Corporations didn't check it out. No, no, we want to be woke. Oh, no, we want to be on a side. We want to be virtue signalers after George Floyd. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:24 All right. So Disney and Anheiser Bush pretty much destroyed themselves, right? With this woke business because they, Disney went up against DeSantis, DeSantis crushed Disney. And Anheiser Bush did the trans thing and the consumers crushed Anheiser Bush. The others, nobody knows that. That list I just gave you, nobody's ever done that in the media. okay GOP chaos I can't I just can't you know so now Steve Scalise is the nominee
Starting point is 00:34:06 for Speaker of the House and you got the usual suspects we don't like them we don't want him he did this he did that they're hurting their own party these dissenters yeah they're the right to do it they have the right to do it but they're hurting their own party Republican Party looks weak, disorganized. Democrats are laughing at them. That's the truth. It'll work itself out, but come on.
Starting point is 00:34:36 Would I vote for Matt Gates? Never. Or Nancy Mace? Never. They're in for themselves, in my opinion. Money. So this is from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. 70% of adults losing sleep over job security, 75% losing sleep over the recession or whatever
Starting point is 00:35:02 you want to call it. It's basically you don't have enough money to live. Okay, you've got to spend more money on essentials. People don't have the money. They're worried. They can't go to sleep. And it's a problem. So Bernie didn't mention it in his, the border and all those things.
Starting point is 00:35:20 but I think if Biden never gets to the presidential run, he's running against a grocery store and a gas station. I can't tell you, and I will tell you next week, I dumped, I dumped state farm insurance because it was outrageous what they were doing to me by their raising their premiums for no reason. Nothing, you couldn't justify it. and I find a replacement.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Now, I don't know, I was with them for decades. They can spend all that money on their commercials, get the State Farm guy running around with Patrick Mahomes. Yeah. And then the individual wants to insure his car in his house. It's got to pay triple sometimes. And he hasn't done anything to warrant that, he or she. Come on.
Starting point is 00:36:13 That's Biden. Supply side this. And they give you a bunch of gobbly gook when you talk to them. But anyway, I'll get into that next week. Smart life. Okay, so while I was gone, I couldn't answer the concierge membership. We have had a surge in a concierge membership on Bill O'Reilly.com. You pay a fee.
Starting point is 00:36:35 It's very low. You get a free book, killing the witches is scorching hot right now. You get a free. And then you have direct email address to tell me how I can help you. That's what it's about. How can I help you? I would say 20 to 30% of the letters are financial letters. People asking me for financial advice, which I cannot give.
Starting point is 00:37:02 I can tell you what I would do, but I can't give it because I don't know your situation. I don't know what you have and what you don't, what you owe, what the value of your property is. I don't know any of that. But nevertheless, I get a tremendous amount of mail people who are scared about their financial situation. I answer every single letter, usually within 24 hours, if I'm not abroad. There is a consistency in all of the letters, and that is that these people do not have trusted financial advisors who would take a look at your portfolio and send. hey, this is what you should do or this is what I suggest and here's why the person would know
Starting point is 00:37:52 your assets, what you owe and all that because they're working for you. You pay financial advisors. You've got to negotiate the fee. It's got to be worth it to you. And then they tell you. But you've got to trust them. And that takes research and work. You've got to speak to them. And you ask your family, you ask your friends, who do you go to? You don't have that and you have assets, you're going to get host. Across the board, investing in stocks is risky. Investing in commodities is higher risk than stocks. Safe are government bonds and money in an FDIC insured bank account. But your money's not going to grow big in those safe investments. Depends on your circumstance, how old you are, what you want to accomplish. But this is so vital because the government
Starting point is 00:38:50 wants to take as much money away from you as it can. They're going to take money away from you and it's not going to get any better. And the prices and the insurance premiums and the heating and the gas and the food, think it's going down. So you've got to know what you have and then lay out a plan, smart life. It's hard to find a good financial advisor and a good doctor and a good lawyer. You have to put in the time. But if you don't, you're going to get hurt. Big. Smart life concierge membership. Bill O'Reilly.com. Okay, here's the final thought of the day. So I was four days in England, British airways, good. It was good. There I am in the Cotswolds, okay, which is a beautiful place about 30 miles northwest of Oxford. That's where I was based in
Starting point is 00:39:57 Oxford. And I was there because my son, there I am, and I love that sign. Okay. My son is studying. third year in Oxford, and he's doing very well. So I had to go over, I mean, you see how my money's being spent over there. But he's a big star in the lacrosse team, the Oxford lacrosse team, and they wax bath last week, and tomorrow they play Plymouth. And that's where the Mayflower came from. So they got to drive down to the coast to play Plymouth. So he's, you know, lacrosse just starting really up in England,
Starting point is 00:40:37 and so the coach recruited him. It's like that show Ted Lassow, American coach. There's my kid who's the leader in a pack on a team. So I'm really funny. But Oxford, if you saw the Harry Potter movies, they shot the exteriors, a lot of them in Oxford. It's from the 12th century. You walk around, nothing's changed. And if you want to build something new in Oxford, see ya.
Starting point is 00:41:03 They'll let you. It was packed. packed with people. I couldn't believe how many people were. And crazy bicycle people, you know? You know, watch everything, because they drive on the left. And we went to London. I told you a little bit about it, but London was packed.
Starting point is 00:41:20 I mean, went to Portobello Road. It's a big marketplace. You can get anything you want there. But it was so crazy. And everybody's on this. Walking into people, there are people bouncing off walls. And it was a design. You see that movie, what was it, X-War or War X or something, about the zombies of Thai?
Starting point is 00:41:43 That's what this is what? We're like, it was crazy. I mean, you needed to have a suit of armor to walk down Portobello Road. There's people all over the place. And nobody's watching. Everybody's looking at the stupid phone. It was bedlam. So then I went out and we refreshed at the Dorchester Hotel on Park Lane, which is the best hotel.
Starting point is 00:42:09 I always stay there, old English hotel. And then we went down to Curzon Street, which is the main street in Mayfair. Mayfair, as I said, all Saudi. I mean, by England, I don't know where you went, but you're not in Mayfair anymore. And then we went up to Berkeley Square where my father used to send me money. When I was over there, I wanted to see you for it. That's pretty much the same. same. And then Groverness Square, where the American Embassy used to be, they moved it down by the
Starting point is 00:42:37 river, the Thames, and now they're building a Rosewood Hotel in the American Embassy. So I spent a lot of time in the embassy as a reporter in and out of there. So I visited, and I dragged my son along, and look, here's what your old man did here, is what your old man did there. We had a great time. It was really a good time. And I hadn't been there in a while. Now, I'm spoiled because Ireland, we go to every two years and sorry British people, but Ireland is more beautiful in Britain because there's so many fewer people there. So, 52 million on the island in England, Great Britain, and then five in the Republic of Ireland. So the nature, you know, that's a difference. But the constables are nice.
Starting point is 00:43:29 I mean, you walk into the church, and it says, founded in 1237, and it's still operating. It's still there. So we post a lot of pictures. They're on bill o'Reilly.com in the photo gallery. I think you'll enjoy them. You know, all in all, it was an excellent trip, and I'm glad I got to take it. I miss you guys, of course. I hope we made it up to you tonight. I think this was a crackerjack show. And again,
Starting point is 00:44:02 we want to hear from you about what you think. And thank you very much for watching it. We will see you again tomorrow.
