Starting point is 00:00:00 Bill O'Reilly here, welcome to the No Spin News, Thursday, February 9, 2023, stand up for your country. Now, if ever there is a person who believes what he wants to believe, regardless of facts, It is the president of the United States, Joe Biden. He is a perfect poster guy for my contention that the majority of Americans at this point in history simply believe what they want to believe. And facts, context, fairness, doesn't have a lot to do with it. So if you want to believe something, you're going to believe it. Now, sometimes that's good, so I believe in God and I believe in the Christian theology
Starting point is 00:01:03 because I want to believe it. I've never seen God. I believe he has acted in a way that has affected me and my family. But again, I want to believe that. I want to believe in a benevolent God that is the prince of justice, and that in the end, evil people will get theirs and good people will be rewarded. I want to believe it, so I do. But in the matter of religion, it doesn't really matter because there are very few facts available to demonstrate theology is reality.
Starting point is 00:01:42 There are a few, but not many. In politics, totally different. It's like sports. There's a scorecard. Okay. And if you watched and listened to Joe Biden, that scored card got totally thrown out. out in the state of the union address. He believes that he's doing a great job with the economy. He believes it. He's delusional, and that is the subject of this evening's Hawking Points memo.
Starting point is 00:02:10 So let's go to the Hunter Biden, Joe Biden story, which is coming on strong. All right. So the House Oversight Committee is already up and running. to try to establish whether or not Vice President Biden at the time benefited financially from his grifter son. That's already in motion. Joe Biden has done seven one-on-one interviews, seven in two years.
Starting point is 00:02:49 His people who control him, and that includes his wife, don't want him sitting down for tough interviews. They go to the cupcake people. So last night, Mr. Biden sat down with Judy Woodruff of PBS for a cupcake interview. PBS is obviously a left-wing news organization that loves the Democrats, no doubt about it. But one soundbite really caught my attention. Go. One of the things Republicans say as a priority for them is investigating your family. your son Hunter, your brother, Jim, they talk about access that they say others have gotten
Starting point is 00:03:35 because of you, because of your political success. How do you plan to deal with that? The public's not going to pay attention to that. They want these guys to do something. The only thing they can do is make up things about my family. It's not going to go very far. Now, incredibly, Judy Woodruff did not follow up on that statement. Because, again, the President of the United States, and this is dangerous for all of us,
Starting point is 00:04:04 lives in a delusional state if he doesn't think that people are interested in if he got money from his son when he was vice president shepherding Hunter Biden all over the world on Air Force 2. but I'll submit to you that Biden believes because again he's delusional that nobody cares about this because in his bubble where he lives and he never gets out of it nobody can nobody mentions it all right but to say nobody's going to care about this I mean it's like what this is a huge story but we don't have it yet Okay. We don't have the story yet. So Congressman James Comer of Kentucky was on this broadcast a few weeks ago is the chairman of the House Oversight Committee. Congressman Jamie Raskin, an avowed leftist, is the ranking member on the Democratic side.
Starting point is 00:05:07 So you're not going to have, as you had the January 6th committee, which every congressman on that committee hated Trump. We won't have that here. You have the Democrats, Raston. and is going to lead them running interference for Joe Biden. But today, today, and I'm wondering how many news agencies are even going to cover this, the Oversight Committee made a formal request for Hunter Biden through his attorneys, all right, to turn over information and records related to his foreign business dealings, all of them. Okay, a formal request is the first step to a subpoena. I think that you'll have to subpoena Hunter Biden to turn it over.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I'm not going to go any further than that, but certainly it's possible he's destroyed stuff and all of that. That's absolutely possible, but I'm not going to make that accusation. That would be irresponsible. But the committee, the oversight committee, is moving along on this. And Hunter Biden has until February 22nd, okay, it's February 9th today. So he's got 13 days. to turn over all the documents related to his foreign business dealings. And, again, it would be ridiculous for me to accuse Hunter Biden or James Biden, the brother,
Starting point is 00:06:35 of paying off the big guy. Okay, and that's how the president was referred to in some Hunter Biden emails. Now, what we do know for sure is that Hunter Biden is a grifter. There's no question about that. He's guilty of being a grifter. Did he break the law? Looks like he did. Filing phony tax returns.
Starting point is 00:07:00 They're sitting on it because the Justice Department is corrupt. You know, Merrick Garland is not an honest individual. I mean, my God, he came this close to being in the Supreme Court justice. So the U.S. attorney in Delaware is just sitting on it. They got them, Hunter Biden, but they're not. doing anything and that torques me off because why should hunter biden get special treatment if he filed a phony tax return which he did because the reason i know that is that he had to borrow money to pay off the taxes he owed which he did now he wouldn't have done that if the original
Starting point is 00:07:38 tax return was accurate but it wasn't okay so we know hunter biden is guilty of something we don't yet about Joe Biden. However, half the country has convicted Joe Biden already because they want to believe he's guilty. You see what I mean? This goes around to all ideologies and political parties. All right? And it'll say, oh, Riley, come on, you got to know. He's dead it. He did. Look at this email. Told him Babelinski and, uh, that, okay. It doesn't look good. Joe Biden did gain something, but I don't know what. And you don't know what. Now, will the House Committee find out? I don't know. Because remember, the Democrats are going to try to block it on that committee. Now, if it's all speculation, it's going to turn into a fiasco. And the New York
Starting point is 00:08:43 Times and Washington Post and all of the other corporate media, NBC, CBS, ABC, that are rooting for Joe Biden who want him reelected. It's just beyond belief, but they do. All right, we'll then start to come in and hammer the oversight committee. So you don't have anything. So the January 6th committee and have anything against Trump, you know, that just disappeared like that, right? Boom, God. As soon as Congress changed over, that committee and what they did, boom, meant nothing. A colossal waste of money in time. The same thing could happen with the hunter, Joe Biden. situation, unless they have demonstrable evidence of wrongdoing. So if it's just throwing the fish line out there, trying to reel in something,
Starting point is 00:09:32 going to be real hard to do it. Remember, you can take the fifth. Now, Trump just took the fifth. These guys can come in and say, I can't answer any questions because, you know, it might incriminate me and that's my Fifth Amendment right. So the committee itself has got to. to have other things, other sources, in order to present a case where there's not reasonable down.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Okay, so we're up to speed of that. But Biden's saying that nobody cares. It's just like the fentanyl thing. I just can't get over that. Let's do something about fentanyl. Where were you for two years and hundreds of thousands of deaths? uh oh delusional delusion delusional anyway by the end of march next month we should have an idea whether the oversight committee's got anything okay got to give him a little time
Starting point is 00:10:33 state of the union ratings terrible so there are uh 120 million homes with television in the united states approximately 330 million citizens all right 27 million watched the state of the union, according to Nielsen. That's all of the networks and everybody else who cared it. That was down 29% from last year, Biden last year, his first year in office, 38 million. Trump had the biggest score recently. He had 47 million viewers to the State of the Union in 2019. Okay? Big crew. Obama's top was $32 million in 15. So you can see that $27 million, not a good showing. Now, the reason that so few watched is because quite simply Joe Biden is boring. That's why they didn't watch. Trump wasn't boring. So you're going to sit there for an hour and 12 minutes. I had a hard time. Okay? I was checking the news wires.
Starting point is 00:11:48 and the sports scores. I was listening and jotting notes, but it was painful. That was a long one hour and 12 minutes. That's why they didn't watch. And unfortunately, a lot of Americans, they don't care. They don't care. Now, yesterday was a very busy day for me. So I did the Hannity Radio program. I did W.A.B.C., as I always do. I did a whole bunch of media analyzing the State of the Union, and we're very flattered that people want to hear our opinion. So last night I went on News Nation on the Chris Cuomo show. I do that every Wednesday, and it's worth watching. And if you don't think so, I'm going to roll a clip.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Go. I have a question about the Republicans, how they acted last night. What is America coming to when our Republican leaders act like children? What an embarrassment to America. Here's what I think is interesting about it, Jay. Well, it wasn't a Republican leaders because the Speaker of the House, McCarthy, four times, told the bomb throwers who were driving this to knock it off. So it wasn't a Republican leadership that was doing that, number one. You think that McCarthy did what he needed to do to get them to be quiet by going?
Starting point is 00:13:05 What else is he going to do? Run down there and, you know, hit him with a water balloon? What do you think he would have done if it was Democrats doing it? He was going like this. Don't do it. Everybody saw it. The people who do this not only in the Republican Party, but in the Democratic Party as well, are basically in it for themselves. They want to draw attention to themselves. They want more money. They want more power. They want more recognition. They couldn't care less about the process. So if you are looking out for your country, you respect the office of the presidency. Okay? They didn't do that when Trump was president. president, absolutely didn't do it. But that doesn't mean anything now. Okay? So the Republicans who yell and cat call during the state of the union aren't doing anybody any good. There are plenty of forums afterward, like the Cuomo show on News Nation, where they can come on and
Starting point is 00:14:03 vent like I do, all right? But I got to tell you, I did yell at the TV when the president in the United States starts saying, we got to crack down on fentany. where have you been for two years? Do you have no clue? And the answer to that question is he has no clue. Well, look, Biden deserves his criticism, no question about it. I don't see parity between the parties when it comes to this. I think this sets a standard.
Starting point is 00:14:31 Oh, come on. You don't know what the squad is? Hold on. You don't know what they are? Do you remember the squad standing up during Trump's state of the union and yelling at him and calling him a liar to his face? You remember that? No.
Starting point is 00:14:42 Me either. Oh, no. Me either. Well, let me remind you of something, Cuomo. Please. You had the Speaker of the House tear up Trump's speech on camera. Yeah, terrible. So what, that's about as egregious as you get.
Starting point is 00:14:57 I get it. That was terrible. That was terrible. But it was said at the time that that was terrible, and she apologized for it at the time because she knows what she did with stupid. And listen, I'm not a big fan of apologies either, especially to the media. All of these extremes seem to work out that well. All of these extremes.
Starting point is 00:15:13 is Cuomo on both parties. I'm with you. And there's parody there. I'm with you.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. All right, I got him to admit to his parody. I don't think he even knew that he was admitting it,
Starting point is 00:16:27 but that's robust debate. Okay, now I ask you, let me ask you a very, and this is an important question. You can write to me at bill at bill o'Reilly.com, bill at bill at o'Reilly.com. That was about three minutes that you just watched and listen to on a radio, okay? That wasn't boring. Do you see that kind of debate on any other television form? Once in a while on radio, I hear it. But I never see it on television, ever. That it's now the analyst, the pundit, the anchor, gives you his or her opinion,
Starting point is 00:17:04 then brings in somebody who agrees with his or her opinion. that's why nobody under the age of 60 is watching network or cable news anymore because it's just like okay you know but that was pretty instructive I thought but maybe I'm delusional like someone else we know Sarah Huckabee Sanders I'm still very impressed I emailed her father all right former governor Mike Huckabee And I don't usually do this. I'm kind of above the fray of party politics, as you know. You got to watch everybody.
Starting point is 00:17:46 But I emailed him and I said, you know, will you please tell your daughter? That was an extraordinary speech. And it was. Because it was pithy, P-I-T-H-Y, it got right to the point. Short on BS, thank God, long on what. Sarah Huckabee Sanders believes, and I'm just going to, you probably saw this, but I think it's worth a short clip. Go. But in Washington, the Biden administration is doubling down on crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:21 President Biden inherited the fastest economic recovery on record. The most secure border in history, cheap, abundant, homegrown energy, fast rising wages, a rebuilt military, and a world that was stable and at peace. But over the last two years, Democrats destroyed it at all. Now, whether you agree with that or not is extremely well written, and she delivered it in a very clear and concise manner. Period. She elevated herself by doing what she did there
Starting point is 00:19:02 to a potential presidential candidate down the road. Not this time, not BP. She's got to run her state for four years, okay? Because she just got elected governor. But when I saw that, it was refreshing because it was so little stuff that was just nakedly BS. She believes all that, and most Republicans believe it as well. I believe it. I believe it.
Starting point is 00:19:33 And if I saw something in there, okay, that I didn't think was accurate, I would say it. But she nailed it. Now, because she did so well, the left mobilized immediately in their meeting, okay? Remember, on K Street and Washington, there are three or four political action committees and businesses that cater to politics that have a conference. call. And it was Get Sarah Huckabee Sanders. That's the message that went out. Got to destroy her quickly. And so immediately you sighed. Go. Boy, that was just bleak, wasn't it? It was. Why? I don't know. It was low energy. Did none of these people ever listen to Ronald Reagan? I mean, the whole thing was like, be optimistic. Reagan would say, I truly believe America's greatest days lie ahead. He believed
Starting point is 00:20:32 it. Negatory. Carl Sandberg, it was all beautiful. So anyhow. And these people are so grim. Absent was any direct mention of her former boss, Donald Trump. Okay. So those people are those people. All right.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Ms. Brzynski is the daughter of a very well-known Democrat who worked in the Carter administration. So she went. The other guy was a Republican at one time, but he's getting a big paycheck on MSNBC. so he's going to give MSNBC what they want. That's not just him, okay? Believe me, principles go out the window when checks are written. Okay, President Biden's schedule, he goes to Tampa to talk about Social Security and Medicare, one of his biggest lies.
Starting point is 00:21:26 So you saw it at the State of the Union when he once again accused the Republicans of trying to dismantle, Social Security and Medicare. It's not true. There's not one proposal, not one, to disassemble Social Security or Medicare. Nothing. There's one proposal by Senator Scott in Florida to examine the entitlements every five years just to take a look at them. Okay? Doesn't seem unreasonable to me, but there's no proposal. So Biden and Democrats are running around telling seniors that Republicans are going to cut Medicare and Social Security. It's a lie. But they did the same thing to African Americans when they said,
Starting point is 00:22:10 oh, you can't vote. Remember, y'all be back in chains to quote? Okay, and then in Georgia, which was a focal point of that, we had a record turnout for the midterm elections. From African Americans, everybody else. That was a lie. You know, just because a state requires you to have an ID to vote doesn't mean you're suppressing African Americans.
Starting point is 00:22:31 that's ridiculous. That's insulting to African Americans. But these lies that they come up with in these meetings, all right, let's run and scare the seniors. So that's what Biden is doing down there. And again, Biden's so delusional that he doesn't know what's real and what isn't real. That is the threat. Keep telling everybody that. Okay. Trophagopol. spy balloon. Power, politics and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post
Starting point is 00:23:11 columnist and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce 1. Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, lawmakers, and even the president of the United States.
Starting point is 00:23:29 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. Uh, 1,086 respondents to Trafalgar, Democrat 39, Republican 36, other 25. Question, what is your opinion on the Biden administration's handling of the Chinese spy balloon travel across the U.S. A. Mishandles should have handled sooner. 63%. That's a big number. Crisis was handled appropriately, 37. Second question, do you believe President Biden should have taken quicker action to shoot down the
Starting point is 00:24:13 Chinese buy balloon before it entered U.S. sovereign airspace? Yes, 59, no, 31, not sure, 10. Now, that's kind of dopey. You don't shoot down anything if it's not in your airspace, unless it's a, you know, a weapon on its way. So they have plenty of time to take this balloon out because it was four or five days. They kept it quiet after it hit Alaska. But I don't think people really understood what the airspace thing is. I mean, if the United States is going to unilaterally fire on any country in international airspace is going to be a nuclear war, period.
Starting point is 00:24:57 It's going to happen. Third question. How do you believe the handling of the Chinese balloon has impacted perceptions of America on the world stage, made America look weak, 59, no impact, 24, made America look strong 10. I love these people. All right, so that's a poll. Job cuts. Now, I don't know whether this country will go to recession this year. I hope it doesn't. I don't want people to suffer. I don't put politics above the welfare of the folks. not going into a recession is to keep people working. If there are mass layoffs and consumer spending goes down, a recession will happen. Okay, this week alone, Disney announces 7,000 job cuts. They're going to fire 7,000 people. Okay, they want to save 5.5 billion in cost savings. They can't charge anymore to get to their theme parks because working class and poor people can't afford to go now. All right. And that's how much progressive stuff Disney cares about, right?
Starting point is 00:26:10 If they really cared, they'd have a package for lower income people that take their children to Disney World and Disneyland. Would they not? They don't care. Anyway, Disney is knocking it down. Then Dell, technology, says it's going to lay off 6,650 people, 5% of its workforce. Zoom, 1,300 jobs eliminated. eBay, 500 employees, 4% of its total workforce. That's just this week.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Keep an eye on this. The only reason we're not in a recession now is that consumers are still. spending money more money because everything is more expensive under biden which he totally ignored in his state of the union dress okay now the disney situation is a perfect example of how if a corporation gets involved with the culture wars that corporation is going to lose So the MyPillow guy markets to conservative Americans and has made a gazillion dollars doing that. But he's a small businessman, this, okay? So it's worked there with MyPillow.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Okay? And other companies, niche companies, can do that. They can go to liberals or they can go to conservatives. But if you are a major corporation that markets all over the world and you start to get involved with those culture wars like Disney did in Florida, which was ridiculous, absurd, insulting parents, Disney insulted parents in Florida, that's what they did. Everybody knows it. That's what led to them losing whatever they've lost and cutting out all those jobs because
Starting point is 00:28:13 they got involved in the culture war. on the wrong side. They just got involved with it. So if you're Coca-Cola, which is another left-wing company, by the way, at this point, and you alienate your left-wing people by saying, you know what, maybe we shouldn't have abortion on demand? Coca-Cola wants babies to grow up to drink Coca-Cola. What if you did an ad campaign? Well, the left wouldn't buy your drink. just like the right is punishing Disney. So you're going to stay out of it if you're a corporation. 21 states, interesting story, fascinating story.
Starting point is 00:28:56 I don't think you're going to hear about this anywhere else. 21 states have called on President Biden to label Mexican drug cartels terrorist organizations. That started with me more than a year ago, more than a year ago, three years ago, when Trump was president. I told the president, suggested to him, label the Mexican, Mexican drug cartels, terrorist groups, and go after them. If you read, killing the killers, then you know it's perfectly legal to do that off the Patriot Act. And boom, you can wipe them off the face of the earth, which they should be wiped out. So 21 states, I'm going to go over real fast, put them up on a screen, but on radio. Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia,
Starting point is 00:29:40 Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia. All of them, through their attorney generals, attorneys general, I've wrote a letter to the Biden administration saying, you've got to designate these people so we can destroy them. Or else you're going to have hundreds of thousands of Americans continue to die from narcotics, overdoses. Now, what about the states that didn't? And by the way, the only non-red state in that crew I just read. to you is New Hampshire. New Hampshire is kind of in a bubble right now. So there are five GOP
Starting point is 00:30:24 states, red states not on the list, Idaho, Mississippi, Nevada, North and South Dakota. Surprise about South Dakota with Governor Noam. I'm surprised there. Now, I don't know why. Maybe they didn't hear about it or maybe their attorney general isn't sharp. I don't know why. Okay, but the other states, the blue states, they don't seem to be concerned. This is the only solution, by the way. There's no other way. The drug cartels control over a door in Mexico. They run the country. Just like Haiti, the drug gangs run the country of Haiti now. There is no solution, okay, to stopping the deadly fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine, whatever coming in here, unless you attack directly and violently, the drug cartels.
Starting point is 00:31:15 No other solution. Okay? So why would 29 states sit it out? Why? This is an interesting story. You'll hear nowhere else as well. FBI office in Richmond, Virginia. It's a whistleblower down there.
Starting point is 00:31:38 His name is Kyle Serafin. He's an FBI agent or was. He's been suspended because he blew the whistle on a number of FBI things that are wrong. One of them is that the Richmond Field Office of the Bureau is targeting conservative Catholics, all right, as being extremist and a threat. Radical, traditionalist, Catholic ideology is what. the field office sets who are these people well they're conservative catholics believe in a latin mass some of them um but it's all about abortion that's what it's about now according the memo that this whistleblower dropped the southern poverty law center fingered the
Starting point is 00:32:27 conservative catholic movement as terrorists southern poverty law center is a far for left radical group. So I don't know if any action was taken against Catholics in Virginia or anywhere else, but you should know the FBI was down with this in Richmond. Smart life. 18% of adults use some kind of sleep medication according to the Centers for Disease Control. All right. And I don't know, about 25% adding all this up. have trouble sleeping every night. That's a problem. Sleep as you get older is vital.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Now, last night I woke up in the middle of the night, and I usually go right back to sleep, but I did. But I didn't panic. I just got comfortable, get the little pillows and stuff like that. Room temperature was good. That's important. Okay, and I just kind of drifted. And I got my rest.
Starting point is 00:33:32 You don't have to be out to reduce. Juvenate your body. If you just float around, don't worry about it. If you're not sleeping well and you get anxious, that works against it. It's trying to relax. You don't think about nice things. Think about the past and memories. I did that. I brought myself back to Levitown last night. And about half an hour later, I conked out. But I had fun thinking about my upbringing in Levitown, and how little my house was and the interactions and all of that. So if you can't sleep, use the time to think about things, not worrisome things, nice things. And that's the smart life tip of the day.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Don't take drugs. Gen Z, that's 11 to 26-year-olds, Gen Z. They are more likely to think of their pet as their best friend, according to a commission study by Wag, which is a dog thing. So 34% of Gen Z think of their dog. dogs as their best friend. Now that's because of this, because the younger people have trouble speaking to other people. They can text, but articulating thoughts directly and looking someone in the eye, becoming
Starting point is 00:34:53 harder and harder and harder to do because of the dopey machines. But the dog, the dog just going like this, they don't just speak English, although the terror dog, how like the tarot dog, he speaks a little English. This week in history, February 8th, 1990, which was yesterday, but the whole week was taken up with this. Andy Rooney, remember Andy Rooney 60 minutes, suspended, suspended for three months without pay. Why? Roll the tape.
Starting point is 00:35:26 There was some recognition in 1989 of the fact that many of the ills that kill us are self-induced. Too much alcohol, too much food, drugs. homosexual unions, cigarettes, they were all known to lead quite often to premature death. The moral issue was this. If a person is repeatedly warned that something is damaging to his health and he continues to do what he knows is bad for him, is society responsible for his medical bills? Okay, so the homosexual union thing led to his three months suspension. Now, today, he would have been done. Career over by Andy. So 60 Minutes ratings went down 33 years ago this week, 20% in the time
Starting point is 00:36:14 Rooney was suspended. So CBS dropped the suspension. I'll tell you four weeks he was back because they lost so much audience. Andy Rooney died at age 92, five weeks after his last appearance on 60 minutes this week in history.

Scott Banting, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. I've been impressed with Chris Cuomo on his debates with you.

Starting point is 00:40:57 Okay, final thought of the day. I am leaving tomorrow for the Valley of the Sun, Phoenix, Arizona. I am going there to, yeah, watch the game, but that's not the most important thing. The Super Bowl is the most vivid demonstration of capitalism on the planet. It is far in a way the most big. business-oriented situation ever. And I've gone before. I always learned something.
Starting point is 00:41:33 But this time I'm going with an eye on the money flow. Okay. And, you know, they go, Stade and all. That's just nothing. The Super Bowl is enormous. And I'm right in the middle of the five. So I'm going to go there. And I'm going to report extensively on a number of things.
Starting point is 00:41:53 I will tweet throughout the weekend at Bill O'Reilly, at Bill O'Reilly, get on that band. And then I'm going to be off on Monday because I can't get back from Arizona to New York. I think I roll in about 7 a.m. on Monday, I don't want to be delirious. So Tuesday, I'll be here. Monday, we're going to take the day off. But I am going to have some very, very important information for you and fun information. because every, you know, celebrity and politician, you know, I'll be right in the middle of that. And I will report accurately about what's happening. I'm looking forward to it.
Starting point is 00:42:32 I like Arizona anyway, particularly this time of year. It's supposed to be in the 70s, so we'll have a good time. See you on Tuesday. Thank you for watching and listening to the Noosven News this evening. Have a great weekend, new column, Sunday noon.
