Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Wednesday, September 18th, 2024, stand up for your country. New study shows that anxiety is at the highest level of the year right now, right, this moment. And I think it's true. I'm feeling a little anxious. I'll tell you about it in a smart life segment tonight. It's not calm time for anybody that I know. Everybody's on edge.

So we're going to get into that in smart life. So the country's still processing the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Media is not covering it honestly, as usual. If there were two attempts on the life of the vice president, there'd be hysteria in this country. Trump would be blamed. There's no question about that. It's not a guess, not speculation. That's what would happen. Everybody knows that. Now it's kind of okay. We don't like it. I don't think there are

many people that want to see Trump dead. There are some, but not many. But, you know, we still hate them. And we still want Kamala to win. So let's move along as the press's attitude. And we're going to get into that a little bit more. And as far as Donald Trump is concerned himself, that is a subject of this evening's talking points memo. So yesterday, he's in Flint, Michigan, and he says this, go.

And I have to say that President Biden called me yesterday. It was very nice, with a very nice conversation. I appreciated that he called about you know what happened the other day. And he says, he's committed. He's committed. No, but, and today, a little

A little while ago I got a very nice call from Kamala. No. It was very nice. It was very nice. It was very, very nice, and we appreciate that. So it was good. A little more mellow, you know, somebody yells out F. Joe Biden. You would expect that from the MAGA supporters, just as we expect it, from the progressive movement.

We expect that. I mean, they don't want a time. It's almost a sport, a hobby, hating the other crew. But Trump, see, that was good. He brings in a measure of humanity to his presentation. And the more he can do that, the higher odds that he will win. Okay, so fanatical people, and believe me, they're on both sides, and you know that. I mean, they lose all perspective.

I mean, and they get caught up in this, and clarity is not what they have. Hatred always, always. Believe me, I have to fight it all the time because my emotion is to go after people who try to hurt me and my family. And go after them hard. But sometimes you've got to step back a little bit, what's best the way to handle it. And again, Trump did a good job yesterday in that. This is a dangerous presidential campaign. If you read Confronting the Presidents, only Abraham Lincoln versus George McClellan in 1864 was more dangerous than this, all right, because Civil War was still underway.

And it was chaos in a country. And Lincoln obviously wound up dead, but it was hard for him to go anywhere. because of the ranked danger. Everybody wanted to kill him. Trump now, finally, is getting the Secret Service detail he should have had a long time ago, and I hope they're pretending Kamala Harris as well at the same level. Biden's not around. I'm not worried about Biden.

I think they got him locked down. But every day we wake up and something new is going to happen. So I was on Hannity radio today. and, you know, we were talking about next seven weeks, and I can't predict Friday. I can't predict next week. There's too many things, but I do know that we're living in a very dangerous time, and I mean that literally. So when you are following our news coverage here, we're not going to do any kind of emotional

stuff. We're going to just step back and tell you. And I told him had a very interesting thing on the radio today. And I don't know whether he knew it or not. But the polling now comes in, and everybody's looking at the poll. And Harris is ahead. But I am examining these polls that I'm seeing something doesn't stack up. Because independence, according to the polls, don't like her at all.

I don't know one Republican who's going to vote for her outside of Cheney. and her father, it doesn't stack. So I made a few calls. You know what's going on? In the left-leaning polls, which are most of them, they say Republicans, Democrats, and Dependents, and I'm taking credit for making them do that. We started last year, and they do it now.

But they don't tell you the gender. And everybody knows that more women are supporting Kamala Harris. Everybody knows that. So if you do polling and more women are sampled, you're going to get a higher number for Harris. Do you know that? Fix is in. Now, I'm not saying that Trump is leading in the polls. Trafalgar has him and then Rasmussen has him off, but Rasmussen's a pro-Republican poll.

But I'm telling you this gender thing, that's, see, see how they do. it. And that's a memo. 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 and 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 99-8899. Again, that's 866-326-5-7576 or text bill to 998899. 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 Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. Our schedule is Biden is a reception for Hispanic Heritage Month. That's it. That's all he does. Party on.

Kamala Harris is in D.C. for the Hispanic caucus because the Democrats are running behind, according to polls and a Hispanic vote. And Trump is here on Long Island at the National Coliseum giving a speech this evening. Yesterday, the vice president went to Philadelphia to talk to the Black Journalists Association. You remember that Trump did that in July, the last end of July, was ambushed. The woman gave a big speech about. about how he's the worst person ever. But a little more gentle with the vice president, go. Your opponent and Republicans have, at times,

weaponized you laughing in campaign ads, for example. Why is joy important to you to insert into this election? And what do you make of Republicans using that as a way to suggest that you're not a serious candidate? Well, sometimes I think, and I'll say to whoever the young people are who are watching this, there are sometimes when your adversaries will try and turn your strength into a weakness. Don't you let them. Don't you let them.

Okay, I won't let them then. I promise. But the question is, you crazy, this is unbelievable. So why is joy important to you? See, all right. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. However, ABC News, which took it right between the eyes for the debate, now, I guess, given orders for their correspondents, get a little tougher on the vice president. This is Selena Wang covering that Q&A in Philadelphia ago.

about how her policy towards Israel and Gaza might be different than that of President Biden's. And she did not directly answer the question or offer any policy specifics, but she repeatedly said that we need to get a deal done. Well, that's news breaking. We need to get a deal done. Of course, she's not going to get a specific. She has no blanket idea what to do. You know, Warren Harding. Hello, Warren. And so when you're really confronting the president, he did the exact same thing. He wouldn't answer anything in 1920. And Americans put him into the White House.

It's a disaster. He didn't know anything. He didn't care. He spent three years in a White House playing cards with his corrupt friends, getting drunk, and chasing his mistress around. Because Americans gave him that position knowing nothing about him. Because he wouldn't answer any question. he wouldn't even campaign.

Kamala campaigns at least won't answer any questions. My God. All right. I don't think Donald Trump understands the extent of the hatred toward him. I don't think he does. And I'm going to portray something tonight that you don't know, and he probably doesn't know. All right, so stay with me here. Walk through this.

There is a group called Color of Change. change. I came up against this group a few times. They are the worst smear merchants in the world. No one worse, bottom feeders. They have millions of dollars courtesy of George Soros. In fact, in 2021, according to opensecrets.com, Soros gave color of change, all right? One million dollars. And is a reason why he did it. The president is Rashad Robinson, 45 years old. The Color of Change operation is based in New York City. It took credit for the New York City legal action against Donald Trump. It put it on the Internet. Okay, this is Color of Change, taking credit.

The headline was, Color of Change asserts that Trump indictment points to the importance of progressive prosecutors. That would be Alvin Bragg. Okay? So, color of change, George Soros, after Trump, big time. Why should you care? The color of change has visited the White House since Biden's been president 16 times. Four times Biden himself. four times Vice President Harris herself.

Okay? Why? Why is a radical left group visiting the White House 16 times? We don't know. In fact, the media never has reported this story, ever. I'm breaking it. Got it? Okay.

There is an organization called America First Legal. It's founded by some Trump people, all right, conservative legal non-profit. It is now suing District Attorney Alvin Brad, trying to get to the bottom of what the deuce is going on. Joining us now from Atlanta, Georgia, Gene Hamilton, America First Legal Executive. director. So I have I laid this out accurately, first of all. Absolutely, Bill and thank you for having me on. You have painted the picture precisely as it is. Why do you believe color of change a New York City-based organization that took credit for the Trump prosecutions? Why do you believe they

were going to the White House? The White House is rewarding its political allies on the one hand by inviting them to different events, different meetings, get updates, let us know how things are going, and, of course, to take feedback from them. There's all kinds of other conversations that are probably happening behind the scenes. Now, look, you pointed out exactly what color of change put on their website, which is where they say that they take credit for getting Alvin Bragg in office. And of course, then they applaud when Alvin Bragg indites the former president of the United States. It doesn't take too many logical inferences and steps in the mind of any American at home, any reasonable American to try to connect these dots to say, hey, wait a second, they said that they worked to elect this guy.

They are proud that he's in office. And then Alvin Bragg indicts him, something that the office previously refused to do. And then they're also visiting the White House. Now, mind you, of course, overriding all of this is the other connection of Matthew Colangelo, who was the number three DOJ attorney at the beginning of the Biden administration, then leaving the Department of Justice and going to work for Alvin Bragg. Everyone knows something stinks here, and so we're going to try to get to the bottom of it for the American people. So how do you do that?

So we submitted a bunch of open records requests in New York to demand information that the public. is entitled to under law. Of course, Alan Bragg's office, as you would imagine, refuse to comply. So we've now sued to enforce to grab some of these records so that we can examine them and present them to the American people so that they can see them themselves. Things like emails with outside groups,

things like emails about the investigation, things like calendar entries, all kinds of other things. You can paint a good picture here, and you can get at least some idea as to what's happening behind the scenes. because if you take a step back bill, if we think about the United States in the year 2024, if you would ask someone 40 years ago about this scenario, if you had painted it as a hypothetical about some liberal prosecutor

running on indicting a former president of the United States and then executing on it and then all the coordination that's happening with the current administration and all these outside groups, you would shake your head. You'd say, this is outrageous. This isn't even worthy of a movie script. But here we are today. And no one else is making these connections.

No one else is suing to get these records. No one else is doing this hard work. So we're going to do everything in our power to try to expose what's happening behind the scenes that everyone else sees the fruits of on the front pages. Has any media covered this? Anybody called you? Look, that none of the mainstream media seems to want to pay attention. That's what I thought.

I haven't seen it anywhere myself. How do you, how could you get? that the reason that Rashad Randall went to the White House 16 times, is impossible to get that why he was invited there 16 times? 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 One. 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 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. 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 world's 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 Podcast, Spotify,

or wherever you get your podcasts. It's probably going to be. to be a combination of some publicly accessible information through other sources. And then, you know, some of this is just going to be a matter of using common sense in making logical inferences. Just like any jury, fair-minded jury can do at a trial, you are allowed to make logical inferences based on the facts that are presented to you. And when you have someone from an organization that goes to the White House 16 times, and we're not talking about 16 times to go on an East Wing tour and, you know, check out the blue room or the red room or whatever.

These are face-to-face with the president and the vice president. So there's got to be a reason. But I'm trying to rack in my mind. If I'm a journalist, I can't get executive privilege is what Biden's going to shroud over you. I don't have to tell you anything. All right. And then I guess you could sue color or change, but you got to have a reason to do that. And just because they went to the White House, doesn't give you a weird. reason to sue them. So how are you going to find out what the cause and effect was? What were they talking about? Why was the guy going down there from New York to Washington? I don't know how you get through that wall. Yeah, look, Bill, you bring up a very critical issue. It can be difficult sometimes

to find that magic bullet, that golden nugget, that tiny piece of information that ties it all together and that at least gives you something to go on so that you can go and ask the hard questions and you can go and do more investigations and look there's other investigative agencies you know whether it's in states or or elsewhere that might have an interest in what's happening and what's taking place not just to do what we can not here let me give you a suggestion the congressional committees are the way to go here so if you can present evidence to Comer or the other heads of the committees, all Republicans, and only for seven more weeks. You only got seven. They could call, okay, Randall to Washington to testify about what

the deuce he was doing there. That's the only way I can see where the public would then get an inkling that something's wrong, because something is wrong. Does that make sense? Absolutely. Yeah, you're 100% right, Bill. Look, the congressional committees have unique power and authority to conduct oversight into areas just like this one. So they could absolutely do some further exploration, do some documents, subpoenas, get some other things, call folks in. Tom O'Reilly told you to call, call Jordan, the oversight committee guy, and say, look, we got this. It got to get out there. And that would help the Republicans before the election. We absolutely help them. not? Well, look, I think it would help anyone if you get information. No, no, but you got Harris. You got Harris meeting with the most radical group in the country.

You got hurt four times. What was the meeting? That can affect the election. Absolutely, Bill. You're 100% right. All right. If you do that, will you let us know, we'll bring you back and we'll see if we can't get this campaign up and running?

Because it has to be done. We the people need to know what- what this was. Is George Soros controlling the government now? And I don't think Trump even knows about this. I mean, maybe he does, but he's got, he should be concentrating on it. This is corrupt. And this corruption can be exposed.

So you're doing good work, Mr. Hamilton. We can be of assistance. You let us know, keep us posted, and go the committee rookies. They can get it up and running fast. And this is a lot more important than Hunter Biden and all that. This is vital, vitally important. We appreciate it. We'll talk soon, I hope.

Thank you. Okay. And I'm usually not an advocate, as you guys know, but this is rotten. This color of change, this is rotten. This is true corruption. Okay? The other stuff is bad, not like this. And there's no logical reason that a grifter who heads up color of change should be at the White

out 16 times. None. Furious about this. All right, ABC News, we showed you their correspondent, criticizing lightly. Tomler Harris for refusing to answer any questions because she can't answer them. David Muir's World News Tonight ratings have dropped 12% since the debate. A significant drop. Significant. Maybe temporary. ABC is down at 6.7 millions from 7.6. I think damage was done.

I do. But we'll track it for you. Smart life. So what I talked about the topic program is Americans are more stressed out today than I've been all year, maybe ever. So yesterday, a bad day here. I made a bad decision and that drives me nuts. nuts. I pride myself on my decision making. And 80% of the time I make good decisions, 20% I make bad decision. I made a bad decision. It's my fault. Nobody else's fault. Can't blame anybody who

was me. I'm like this. So I'm not self-forgiving as much as I should be. I am in retrospective, but then two of my friends die on the same day. 81-year-old Nelson DeMille, the author, War Hero in Vietnam, great guy. He had cancer, he fought it for six months, and he passed. And then a high school friend of mine. It was my age. So last night, I am just like this. I can't even tell you.

And I did not sleep well. But when I can't go to sleep, I don't panic. I just lie there and, you know, I function, I can function on two, three hours sleep. I like to get eight, but I can function. Anyway, in this study, which comes from talker research for traditional medicines, it's an herbal tea thing. Now, I want you to drink herbal tea, which is good. It calms you down. 41% of Americans are experiencing heavy tension right now, and I'm one of them.

And it's politics, it's finances, it's crazy kids with the machine all day long, it's your job, it's uncertainty all over the place. We're like wound up. All right. So 41%, it's almost half the country. The manifestation of that is trouble sleeping, irritability, fatigue, headaches, paranoia. Okay? that that's what stress leads to so my smart life tips are you got to accept it you

can't fight it because then become more tense so my friends died nothing I can do I was a loyal friend all right and I'll go to their wakes and I will honor them the mistake I made I won't make again and I'm believe me I'm kicking myself I can't tell you what it is because it's not fully developed yet. I may decide to tell you someday, but it's not that important. What is important is that it brought a tremendous amount of stress on me. So when you are in the stress, you accept the stress, number one. And then you look for an alternative, not drugs or alcohol. That makes it way worse. So you watch a movie, you read a book, you listen to nice music, you just relax,

lay there and you just try to let it dissolve, all right? And you get a little lyrable tea. That'll help you out too. Smart life. I just say in history September 18th, 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act saw one of the worst things ever in this country. Millard Fillmore, top 10 terrible president, you'll find out all about him in confronting the president's. Miller was never elected. Okay, Miller took over. Zachary Teller died. and Miller was VP, and Billy got in there, he's Buffalo in New York. He didn't know what he was doing, didn't really particularly care, and he didn't care about slavery one way or the other, even though he was a New Yorker, I don't care.

So he signed this fugitive slave law 174 years ago today, and law allowed local authorities and civilians, just regular people, Americans, okay, to take. take into custody, escape slaves. So if you got away from the plantation and you made your way to Boston or Philly or New York, somebody could grab you legally and hold you, you know, bring you to the police, and then the owner would come up and get you or whatever. This was insane. Crazy.

What a law. And Fillmore did it because he was stupid. Okay? We've had, I don't know, 10-15, stupid presidents. He's one of them. Harding was another one. I referenced him earlier. Now, here's the kicker on this story.

Only 300 enslaved people were returned to the plantation under the fugitive slave law, okay? Which was in place for 14 years. Okay? I'm sorry. In place for 10 years, 10 years. When the Civil War broke out and the slave law went out. But only 300 were returned. Why?

Because abolitionists and people in the north and in the south that didn't like slavery and knew it was an abomination, they would free the captive slaves. In Boston, there was a big riot when they grabbed a slave and then the people went to the local constable jail and pulled them on out. and let them go and more than a hundred thousand people slaves escaped on the underground railroad so the sentiment was anti-slavery as it should have been but millard fillmore sign this horrendous

law you know we got to own up to our mistakes here we have to in this country back in a moment with the final thought okay final thought we are waiting um we are taping this in uh mid to late afternoon we tape the NOSPA news usually and the New York Times list comes out in a couple hours we have outsold every book by far every nonfiction book i don't know what they're doing over there in the women's fiction that's doing very well but nonfiction way ahead so we should open it number one on the New York Times list i'm just praying that they're honest over there because it's not have been closed. Now last time around, it was dubious, okay, what they did. This time, I don't, I mean, we're approaching 100,000 copies sold in 10 days. It's a big number. And we

appreciate everybody saying kind words about it. Okay, so people ask me how many more books you're going to write? And I've got two I have to write by contract. I can. I can't tell you what they are because people steal the ideas. You know, we're in the middle of writing another confronting book. And in my mind, I want to go out. We are the best-selling Du Gardner, the best-selling non-fiction authors in the world, and nobody's going to come close to us because we have the 13 killing books and all of that, and they're phenomenal success. We're approaching 20 million in print worldwide. And now with this YouTube channel, and again, what I'm going to do today on the YouTube channel is run down all the assassinations

and assassination's attempts and tell you what everybody had in common because it's really a dangerous country. Always has been. America's always been a dangerous country. And it's just because of our history what we had to do to establish the country, to forge our way west, and now to survive in a country that has maximum freedom and a lot of mentally ill people. And it's a violent country. There's no doubt about it. So when I'm writing the last two, and this will be it, okay i'm not going to do anymore because i'm just up to here as i said i can't i just can't do anymore when i go out with a blaze of glory uh but there'll be two more and um you know i'm putting a lot of thought into what i want to get across to people so i'm doing a lot of press

uh you may have heard me on a local radio station hanney's nice enough to uh he actually read and liked the book he puts me on i'm gonna be on mark levin uh this friday night news nation 9 p.m. There's a TV documentary. Me and Leland Vittert, and I'll be on Cuomo by the night, by the way, tonight at 8 on News Nation. But there's a lot of publicity and a lot of marketing going on. So I wrote the president's book because I knew 24 is going to be a turning point in our country because the progressive movement has taken on a lot of power and authority. You know that. I mean, it's George Soros character and his son, Alexander Soros, these people do a lot of damage, in my opinion. I mean, they think they're saints.

They think they're the greatest people ever. But I see what they do. I know what the color change is. I've seen them in action. It's my job, and I bring you the truth. If I broadcast for progressives, they reject it right away because they don't want to believe it. People believe what they want to believe. That's it.

No matter how many facts, no matter what I have, They're not going to believe it. But in the books, it's different because the books are legacies. They're forever. And that'll be my legacy. I'll leave these books. All of them are still in print. That's amazing.

Okay? Killing Jesus, killing Lincoln, a whole slew of them. People still buy them. They call it the back list because younger people grow up and they want to know. You want to know about the United States. You're confronting the presidents from page one to the end. It's more than 400 pages long. And we have the audio, by the way, if you can't devote the time, you throw the audio in the car or when you jogging or whatever, and it's good.

Audio's good. But you'll know more about your country than 90% of the citizenry, if you read this book. Because it just goes right, the arc goes right through. What happened? All right? How we got here. And we're staring at Trump and Kamala Harris. That's who we're staring at.

And I put it into perspective in a fair way. If you think, if you read this book, you think I'm unfair? Any way, shape, or form, bill at bill o'Reilly.com. Bill at bill o'Reilly.com. And the final thing is, I couldn't do any of this without you guys. So we got 300 radio stations that I do commentary on every day. We have direct TV. We have the first.

We have distribution all over the world now with our YouTube channel. we're reaching tens of millions of people. I'd never thought it would happen. I never thought it would happen. All right, but it has. And now the books, no, churning out there. So it's a coordinated effort here. But the presidents is worth the time.

We got two more. I'm writing one now. Sometimes I go, can I just go to the beach? And a lot of my friends, they're just riding around a golf cart. you know yeah a little golf like this hey you want to say they are they pickleball a little pickleball I don't I don't have remotely the time for any of that anyway so a longer final thought than usual but I hope you enjoyed it thank you very much for watching listening to the no spin news see you tonight on News Nation and we'll see tomorrow

back here for the no spin news
