The vice presidential debate went Senator Vance's way. I'm going to explain that. He did very well, but it was more than meets the eye. So you're going to hear the knee-jerk analysis today. it means nothing. It's mostly based on ideology, partisanship. Ours is not. We're going to give you the facts behind what you saw. A snap poll by CBS News right after the debate had Vance winning by just one point. I think it was 47, 46. But that's because people believe what they want to believe. So if you were going in watching the debate and you were a Harris Wall supporter,

then he won. And same thing on the Trump Vance thing. Very few American voters can separate themselves from emotion. We can, which is why you're here worldwide. We don't have that emotion. We have preferences and we explain why. So here's what actually happened last night as presented in the Talking Points memo. So who won? Well, if you are a historian like I am, you evaluate a vice presidential debate by two yardsticks. Number one, which VP candidate helped his ticket the most? Vance, by far. Number two, which VP candidate was most presidential? I would think Senator Vance won that one as well. It's not because I'm rooting. I'll back it up. The problem with Governor Warren,

was that he came out shaking, and you could see it. All right, he was, and he's a human being. Never been on that kind of a stage before. Knows, there's a lot on the line, and he was shaking. And when presented with him fabricating a story about being in China during Tenement Square, the revolution there, he, really looked uneasy. Go.

So I was in Hong Kong and China during the democracy protest, went in. And from that, I learned a lot of what needed to be in governance. And then he said he was a knucklehead and that he fabricated. He didn't say he used the word fabricated a lie, but he said, I wasn't in 10 minutes where. And he had spread that story around, not just one time. So the protests were in 1989. He didn't get to China until after it. Not a big deal because I'd say almost every politician embellishes, distorts,

but that whole presentation made people uneasy. He was not confident. He was not strong. He was not credible. Okay. And there were other examples, but I think is the best. Now, the overall scenario was the same as the Trump-Harris debate, three against one. CBS, the Liberal Network, there's no question about it.

We went over to the fact that I couldn't get on CBS Sunday morning because they never booked non-liberal authors, ever. Just don't do it. That is such a bad thing, but that's who they are. So Vance knew that. And Vance was prepared, unlike Trump. Trump let himself be put on the defensive. Vance did not.

Big difference. So one of the things was abortion, which is an issue helping the Harris-Waltz ticket. Vance picked out a very troubling part of the abortion situation in America. That is, in Minnesota, a law signed by Governor Wals no longer requires doctors to save the life of a baby born after a botched abortion. through that right over the walls go trying to distort the way a law is written to try and make a point that's not it at all was i wrong about governor i please tell me what was that that is not the way the law is written look i i've given how i've given this advice on a lot of things that getting involved getting against that's been misread and it was fact-checked at the last debate

but the point on this is is there's a continuation of these guys to try and tell women or to get involved i use this line on this just mind your own business on this not good enough up because Walsh signed a law. In 1976, Minnesota passed a law. Okay, the law said, quote, all reasonable measures consistent with good medical practice, including compilation of appropriate medical records shall be taken to preserve the life and health of the child born after a failed abortion. That's pretty clear. Every step has to be taken. Walsh knocked it out and replaced it with, quote, preserve the life and health of the born alive infant was replaced with care for the infant who is born alive.

Care, not preserve. That's a big difference because a physician said, well, I cared for. I just didn't, you know, take any steps to make sure it lived. But I cared for it. It wasn't in any pain. That's the argument. Then there was a wording in the law in the first law in 76 that Waltz knocked out that you were mandated. Doctor was mandated that abortion providers report all live births after a botched aborting. They had to report it to the state. Wals knocked that out. That's as extreme as it gets. You don't get more. extreme than that. Okay? So Walsh's fumbling around. He's an extremist when it comes to life issues, and I think pretty much every issue. And then Vance did something very smart. He knows that the

Republicans are running behind, particularly with women on the abortion issue. And here's what he said. As a Republican who proudly wants to protect innocent life in this country, who proudly wants to protect the vulnerable, is that my party, we've got to do so much better of a job. at earning the American people's trust back on this issue where they frankly just don't trust us. And I think that's one of the things that Donald Trump and I are endeavoring to do. I want us as a Republican Party to be pro-family in the fullest sense of the word. Very good. He admits a mistake. See, Trump never admits a mistake.

The answer is. Of course, he's not doing a good job here. We've got to get back to it. That's comforting to voters who are not in the ideological category. Then there was Margaret Brennan, who is a militant liberal. I mean, everybody knows it. People get upset about it. You know, oh, Nora O'Donnell, Margaret Brennan, they're liberal people. They're all liberal people on every network here.

There are no, even moderate people. They're in a club, the liberal journalist media club. We saw that at ABC. They didn't have, they don't have anyone on the staff at ABC who's moderate. And same thing with CBS. So CBS puts out that they're not going to actively fact check. They didn't put it in writing, by the way, but they put out a statement saying,

the statement was verbal. We're not going to really actively fact check during the debate. If you want, we'll do it on our website. 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.

Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on the topics the mainstream media won't.

So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch, or getting ready for the drive home. New episodes of the Sean Spicer Show podcast drop at 2 p.m. East Coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. But Margaret Brennan did fact check Vance on the Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio. Go. And just to clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio does have a large number of Haitian.

migrants who have legal status, temporary protected status. Nora, but, but thank you. Senator, we have so much to get to. Margaret, I think it's important. We're going to turn out of the economy, thank you. Margaret, the rules were that you guys weren't going to fact check. And since you're fact checking me, I think it's important to say what's actually going on.

So there's an application called the CBP One app where you can go on as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum or apply for parole, and be granted legal status at the wave of a, Kamala Harris open border wand. That is not a person coming in applying for a green card and waiting for 10 years. Thank you, Senator. And they cut his mic. Now, Vance is smart to do that because everybody saw it. Brennan was distorting it. Okay, migrants don't have legal status when Biden and Harris wave them over. We have immigration law. You've got to apply for asylum at a port of entry. Biden and Harris don't enforce the law. That's the truth.

They wave him on in. So Vance was right. Brennan couldn't care less about the law. She wanted to make Vance look at, and he turned it on her. Now, Vance did do something that I thought was not smart. He kept going, Harris is responsible for the open border. Harris is responsible for inflation. Harris is responsible to the chaos overseas.

She's not. She cheerleaded it, but Biden's the guy that screwed up the country. Paris didn't have power? All she went and was, oh, yeah, binomics is great. Oh, the border is secure. You can get her on that. But to say that she had the power to do anything, she had no power. Has no power, even now.

Okay. Okay. So now everybody watching this knows Advance is doing pretty damn good job here. He is humanizing himself because he was nice at Walls. You know, back and forth, not nasty, not mean, authoritative, and he looks like U.S. Grant. So the second yardstick is who's more presidential. So come on, you look at Vance and you look at Walls. like your uncle who shows up and you got to get him out of the house in two hours. That's the limit. You got to get him out. I mean, if you're Putin, who do you want to go up against? Vance or

Wals? Come on. So to sum up, Vance wins the debate because, A, he helps the Trump ticket, it stabilizes it, humanizes it, which badly needed, okay, and B, looks far more presidential if he had to take over than Walsh does. And that's the memo. Media madness. Now this is interesting, we showed you the Martha Raddett Soundbite, where the media basically takes what it wants to take and presents it to the American people, or it ignores stuff. And I'm going to give you two examples. So the mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, has been indicted on corruption charges, essentially taking bribes from the Turkish government and helping them out on a building situation in New York City. Adams is innocent until proven guilty. I would not resign if I were

Adams. I would fight these charges, but New York Times today call for him to resign, primarily because of New York Times, he's not liberal enough for them. And they'd left this guy, Giumani Williams, who's a socialist, and he would take over. I think that's what's going on. But anyway, this got to the level of the national news, because New York City is the largest city in the country. And MSNBC, it's hard to believe, but listen to this. Go. Now, I'm going to tell you, for a moment, a story of two news. Yorkers, one from Brooklyn, one from Queens. Both of whom are facing criminal indictments. Both

are accused of taking cash from foreign governments. Both are accused of enriching themselves while in office. Well, Donald Trump has not been accused of taking cash from a foreign government, so that's just a lie. And it's not hard to check that out. He has been accused by Democrats, but no formal investigation. His businesses, which are run by his son, they are probably. from doing business overseas. But they did that long before Trump ever got into the political arena. In fact, the most authoritative study on the Trump situation is that the foreign president lost money by running for president. I don't know either way, but there are two sides of the story.

But for an NBC news employee to say flat out, okay, that both are accused of taking cash, Trump's not accused of taking cash. This is not true. Now, this happens every day at NBC News. Every day. I don't know. I mean, I'm sitting there. If I'm the CEO, I kind of say, call Ms. Reed in and say, look, I don't, we don't mind if you hate Trump.

Okay, but you just can't be spouting this out under our banner. When I worked at Fox News, if you made a mistake, statement on the air, you had to correct it. You were called in. Not anymore. Now, there was a report out by ICE, the government agency, Homeland Security, that says 425,000 criminal migrants are currently in the USA unsupervised, including 13,000, either convicted or accused of homicide. That's a big story, right? 425,000 criminal aliens unsupervised in the USA. And this comes from ICE, Mayorkas.

All right, ABC News doesn't report it. CBS News doesn't report it. Lester Holt on NBC Nightly News mentions it, but doesn't, no package or anything like that, just mentions it. Now, this is a dereliction. This is ignoring a major story. Joining us now from Eugene Oregon is University at Oregon Journalism Professor Peter Loffer. He's a Ph.D., but he even more than that, he holds the James Wallace Chair in Journalism at the University of Oregon. and he has been awarded the Marshall Prize for Teaching Innovation.

That's pretty good. He's got a book out that Neon, Nevada about how signs have ever been to Nevada, how they influence a culture, very interesting. So he joins us now, as I said, from Eugene in Duck Land. All right, Professor, you've been around for a while. Have you seen a deterioration on the national front about reportage to the American people? You know, Bill, it's nice to see you, and when I'm looking at the two of us, we look like the dichotomy of a caricature of the dichotomy of the country, and here you are in your elegant suit, and here I am in a pullover sweater, and you shaved this morning, and I seem to have forgotten to shave, and you mentioned your time studying in Boston. It was about the same time that I was at the University of California, Berkeley.

And you just mentioned NBC News. I spent many years as an NBC News correspondent. And so to your question, is there a deterioration? And by extension to what you said before, we started talking here on camera, what's happening in journalism education, I think that we have to appreciate the reality that we're in an entirely different media climate. And what you and I can agree on is that the divided country consumes divided media.

And so if you combine questions about journalism education, which we are addressing right now, This is the first day of the term at the University of Oregon. And it's the first day of a new curriculum in the journalism school designed exactly for this issue to make sure we are preparing this next generation appropriately. And when you look at the divided country, the divided media, I think that the answer to the question that your producer posed to me when we talked about us talking together here on your show, what, what difference does it really make what the coverage is because we've got this divided country looking at divide. Let me stop you there. We shouldn't be, we as journalists, shouldn't be interested in sociology. We should be interested in fact gathering and presenting facts

in a fair, accurate way. Now, Ms. Reed is not a journalist. She's an ideologue. I don't. I have no problem with that. Because, as you said, it's a divided country, you can make a lot of money talking to the choir, which they all do now, all of them, 100%. Everybody, including you and including me in the classroom. No, no, no. I try not to do that, all right? Very hard try to not do that. When I say, I believe this, I back it up with facts. That's all I ask. So when Ms. Reed totally misstates something about Donald Trump or anybody else. Doesn't NBC News have an obligation to make her correct the record? Yes or no? My NBC News, a different era, certainly did. And so did my ABC and my ABC and CBS News.

And so I would hope that when errors are made, whether they are presentation errors or factual errors, they are corrected, but what's important, I believe, is to, what I missed you, what did you say? They're not corrected. I mean, it's now, it's a wildfire that's not being fought. So look, you go into the classroom. The problem, Bill, is greater, I think, because society now, American society seems intent on seeking confirmation. of their confirmation by absolutely that's a lonely and so

and that's why I'm so here this is delivered every morning on the driveway and every morning after I read it I am punching up box I am looking at the likes of you I don't necessarily agree with you although there are times when we agree when we talked last we were talking about border issues

and we both agreed that the border was a disaster, we just disagreed on how to address it. But that's fine. That's fine. None of that matters if you are a person who loves your country, you have to respect the scent. So you have the urchins pour it into your classroom. And I'm afraid, because I know this to be true in some schools, that the fact-finding gathering process is now being de-emphasized and the ideological crusade articulated by Jim Ruttenberg in the New York Times, and I'm sure you're familiar with that column, Trump is so bad, we can't be fair. We got to get them. That's what's being taught in a lot of

these schools, and that's wrong. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your week. days. 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 Post wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast. Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda DeVos. New York Post columnist and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One. Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, newsmakers and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world.

Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast, you don't want to miss an episode. Let me take this moment, Bill, to formally, on behalf of my class, and I'm sure plenty of my colleagues at the university, invite you to come out and sit in my classroom. My first class is tomorrow of this term, goes on through the middle of December, come on out and sit in my classroom, sit quietly at first, and then I'll love to give you the podium, but sit in my classroom and see what we do.

I'd rather interview, I'd like to interview some of your students, but it's not going to happen this semester, but maybe, because, you know, me, I worked in Oregon. I worked in Portland. I love Oregon. Oregon is beautiful, but it's crazy. The invitation is open, and it comes with grilled salmon and a pinot noir. Last question for you.

And this is a very important question, Professor, or something you might address with your students. By having ABC and CBS News totally ignore a government report that says almost a half million criminals from other countries are now running around unsupervised, totally not reported. I mean, then you don't have a media anymore. It's so corrupt. Why even bother?

I'll give you the last word. Okay. The onus, Bill, and this is a time. tough assignment coming from your favorite professor, the onus is on the news consumer. The news consumer has to be sophisticated enough to avoid misinformation, disinformation, outright propaganda, and the news consumer has to be able to have the sophistication to look past the lies and to look past the absence of information and find it. especially in today's

environment. That's a good point. Everything is out there. You just have to go get it because you care. Not sit back and have it vomited up at you. Okay. And it seems that's happening because the network news ratings

morning, evening, late night are just in a free fall and so are the cable ratings. So people are saying, you know what? I'm tired of being lied to and I don't want propaganda and walking away. That's right.

And that's why the answer to the initial question from your producer is, what difference does it make? Well, it makes a difference because there are a lot of uninformed. Of course it does. But conceptually, what difference does it make? Because there is this absence of engagement with the sophistication of knowing what's out there and how to get it. But you have to understand. That's what we need to teach both reporters and consumers. Most people are not going to go to your class, and they're not in college graduates.

And what a fascinating subject might be for a paper in your class would be to examine Stalin and Hitler and what they did in their countries as far as the media is concerned. Okay. But look, you get ready and you get those ducks ready out there. Open invitation to you. All right. Open invitation to you. Will would probably bring a camera in there because that would be pretty fun.

Thank you, Professor. Appreciate it. stay well. So polling starts to matter now, and it's all over the place. You know, if you follow the polling like we do, you know, Trump's head here, he's behind here, and it changes from pole to poll, and you get right, your head blows off. But we focused in earlier this week on Atlas Intel. It's a poll that was the most accurate last time around 2020. All right, Atlas Intel is the smallest average era cross-pulsters of the 2020 U.S. presidential race. So it's the best, or was the best.

So I told myself, I want to know more about this poll because, you know, a lot of these polls are dishonest. And this one looks like it's not. So we tracked down Dr. Andre Roman. He lives in Brazil where he runs his company, which is a database products for political intelligence and economic forecasting company, not just politics, does a bunch of stuff. and he joins us now from Porto Alegre. So Dr. Roman has a PhD from Harvard. I'm not going to hold that against you. I only have a master's degree from the Cambridge institution.

But why do you think you were the most accurate last time around in the USA? It was quite surprising image for us. This was the worst cycle for the U.S. polling industry in four decades. And all of our polls came within the margin of weather, not just at the national level or the national popular vote, but also in each of the SWIFT will be released as well. We conduct all of our polling online. We adopt a river sampling strategy. That means we don't have a panel. We always recruit new respondents. Over time, we have developed innovative strategies for sample calibration. We do this all over the

world. We work in Latin America. We are also the most accurate pulsars. of the last presidential election here in Brazil, the last three cycles in Argentina and Colombia and Chile. Okay. So we are accepting that, that Atlas now is the one that we look to for the most accurate presentation. Now, you might be wrong this time. So I might have to make fun of you after the election. What trends are you picking up in the United States, because there's only four and a half weeks now before we vote, what trends are you picking up? There is quite significant strength for Donald Trump in the national popular vote. I know this is not something that all the polls point to. Most actually have Kamala Harris ahead.

This is not our case. We have Trump three points ahead in terms of the national popular vote. There's a huge question, though, as to how this will work out in terms of the electoral college. I think we all remember the midterms and the red wave. that kind of failed to materialize itself. There was actually a significant improvement for Republicans. They scored 2.8 points ahead of Democrats,

but that was not helpful in terms of the balance with the seeds as they would have expected. So one thing I would point to this is that major states, like New York, California, where Democrats have significant trouble in terms of governor approval, there's also a corruption scandal in New York City. Well, that's really going to affect Democrats in terms of the national vote, but that doesn't really matter for the Electoral College.

And what happens in the Electoral College, for example, is that the place in Carolina, which generally, you know, is considered a lean Republican state, right now doesn't look at a grade because of, well, the governmental race there. So it will be very tight in terms of the results in some of the swing states. Trump in our numbers is better than with most pollsters. But, you know, I wouldn't say this election has already been won. This will be very tight in some of the really important states. Okay. And then if it is tight, then you're going to have accusations of fraud.

You know that's coming because that's the culture that we live in here. very intense. So at this point in 2020, because it's worth considering this, each candidate on the Democratic side is very similar. Biden was similar to Harris. They both didn't want to answer questions, didn't put them out itself out much. Is there a difference between the way Trump is running now and when he ran four years ago? I do see differences in terms of how Trump is running his campaign. I think that rejection rates for Trump this time around are a bit less intense than last time. He's not really a novelty anymore as he used to be in the U.S. scenario. So in particular with moderate Republicans that were kind of averse to his profile

in important swing states in Georgia and Arizona last time around. Now with a border crisis, for example, in Arizona, that may have improved, right? At the same time, with the Democratic ticket, you're looking at, you know, a ticket that with Biden had very little chance because of very poor approval ratings. Kamala has really shifted the race, but at the end of the day, the approval rating for this administration is quite poor.

in terms of, you know, a re-election chances for the incumbent president, and in this case, given that we're talking about the vice president. Yeah, I'm going to check in with you before the vote, and we appreciate your expertise down there in Brazil. Very interesting that a Brazil polling agency tops all the American ones, that's for sure. Thank you, Doctor, appreciate it very much. Smart life. So last night, as we mentioned, we had a special for premium and concierge members

on Bill O'Reilly. It was a pre-election special where you send in questions to me. And I give you my honest opinion. We did some outside of the election questions too. There was some very, very good questions. About 40 minutes. If you miss it, you can go to bill o'Reilly.com homepage and get it. If you're a premium or concierge member, this is exclusive for you guys.

This is perks for you guys. We're going to do another one. last week in October. I might dress up as J.D. Vance saying it, a little beard, you know. Anyways, Halloween reference. I want to show you just a little of the interaction we had last night because it was a lot of fun. Go. Howard, Boynton Beach, Florida, a nice town.

If progressives are able to take all three branches of government, what are the consequences for the middle class? Massive inflation. That's what's going to happen because progressives will split. spend. We got 35 trillion in debt. In the first two years of a Harris administration, go to 40 trillion. I think that's a tipping point for the dollar. So you'll pay more and more and more and more and more because Harris has no idea about macroeconomics. There's no clue on how to deal with that. Never dealt with it in an entire life. And unlike J.D. Vance, who blamed Harris for

the inflation, it wasn't Harris's fault. It was Biden's. Biden ordered all of that spend. it. And Harris had nothing to do with it. But she cheerleaded it. You remember Bidenomics is great, all that nonsense. Okay. But if she had the top job, yeah, no idea. And the progressive philosophy is spend, spend, spend, tax, tax, tax, and that would just rip through the economy. So it's not going to be good. Every working in class American will be harmed dramatically if Harris wins in Congress goes Democrat. Now, the underlying reason for this is vote buying. This is very important.

So the Liberal Democratic Party has always done this since the Great Depression, since Franklin Roosevelt. There's another reason why you should read confronting the president. Ever since then, the Democratic Party, the liberal wing, has said, we're going to give money in a form of entitlement. to Americans who don't have very much. And therefore, they'll vote for us in perpetuity because we're the party that gives them money.

And that's why we have all these enormous federal programs, food stamps, public housing, it never ends. And Harris wants to up all that. $6,000 if you have a kid, $25,000 just given to you if you're a first-time home buyer, it's unsustainable. You can't sustain it. because the Treasury has to print all that money, all right? So you've got to have the dollar in order to give it away.

Once they start to print all that money, the money that's in circulation goes down in value is too many dollars. So that's economics. If you don't have much of something like diamonds, the value is high. If you have too much of something, the value goes down. So people who are working, if their dollar isn't worth, they've got to pay more for what they need, the essentials of life. Now, most Americans have no clue.

They've never taken an economics class. They don't know micro-macro-economics, and Kamala Harris is in that category. She is a machine politician. She doesn't understand economics. She'll have progressives telling her, oh, we got to do this. Oh, you got to do that. That's what her whole campaign is. We're going to give it away, give it away, give it away, and take it away from O'Reilly and the other people in America who have money.

We're taking it away from them, it's Robin Hood, and then we're giving it to you. That has a lot of appeal. That is the main appeal of the liberal left in this country. And again, you've got to stop it at some point, but they won't. And here's the final point. This is very important. The progressive left, George Soros, these people, again, not Kamala Harris, not Joe Biden. They have no idea.

They want the dollar to crash. They want the U.S. economy to go into a depression. Why? Because then the federal government will take over the entire economy. in an emergency basis. But, of course, they never give it back. And that's what socialism is. The free marketplace doesn't exist.

The government tells everybody, individuals and companies, what they can and can't do. All right? So you've got to hire this amount of blacks. You got to hire and pay this salary. That's what socialism is. no free market, no competition. Government decides. That's what Soros and his crew want.

Again, Biden and Harris play right into that, but they don't really understand it. I would say 80% of Americans do not know what I just told you. 80%. But it's true. Now, we hope, You will consider concierge and premium membership on Bill O'Reilly.com. It will enhance your life.

It will protect you to some degree. You will be way out in front of what's really happening in this country. We've set this whole apparatus up so it doesn't cost you much money. You become a premium or concierge member. You get confronting the president's free or any of my other killing books. The best thing you could do for your friend or somebody in your family, give them a premium membership. then you get a book and all that other stuff. So we are not price gouging.

I've kept this price the same. I think it's five years now. Maybe we raised it a few bucks because of overhead costs, but we've kept it way below what other business is charged for the same service. All right, let's go to the final thought of the day. People believe what they want to believe. That is my mantra. That is a truism of life.

I find myself doing it too. I stop myself because I go, no, look at the facts the way they are. No wishful thinking. After the debate, we heard this, go. Who wanted this to be in the line?

Well, Tim Walts, because he has a vision and he articulated that vision in plain spoken language. I think the big picture takeaway from this is that one of these candidates is much slicker than the other, is a much more practiced kind of professional debate-style speaker,

and the other candidate won. Sure. So if you don't watch that network, that's what you're going to get. Why do people do that? Why do they watch stuff like that? I never could figure it out. The final thing is that, above all, we want to be honest in this election cycle, and we only have four and a half weeks to go.

That's why I brought in the guy from Brazil, okay, because, you know, those people down there look to me to have no agenda whatsoever. It's not like the college polls that are working for somebody. If somebody's paying your bills, you kind of owe them. These guys, they're at it. What I took out of the doctor's analysis was Trump's in a better position now than he was four years ago, but the electoral cause is going to be a brawl, which I think is accurate.

And if it's close, you know the fraud thing is going to happen. That's why you need to keep it here. You need to be a premium or concierge member because we will report honestly as we did. You didn't hear from me. In fact, we lost thousands of subscribers when I said, look, I didn't see any evidence of mass fraud. Zuckerberg, and it wasn't even investigated, pumping 200 million, whatever it was into that election at 20, that's the story. And if Trump's elected, he has got to look into that.

It wasn't the voting machines. It was Zuckerberg. You don't pump that kind of money into just a few counties unless there's something going on. I knew that, I reported that, I told you that. But fraud, voting fraud, yeah, it happened, but not at the level you would need to overturn. We appreciate you watching the No Spin News. See you again on Monday.
