Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Tuesday, February 27, 2024, stand up for your country. Lively broadcast today. Remember, this is not a podcast. All right, this is a broadcast worldwide. millions of people have access to it because of YouTube and all the other things. I don't understand any of that, but I got brilliant tech people who think this is a human wave over the world. So we got Dr. Phil, he's in the bullpen warming up, and he was on a view yesterday.
Starting point is 00:00:48 He survived it. You know, I think he had to go into the ICM for a little while, but he's good. and then we have President Biden on Seth Myers. This is a really interesting story, so wait for this. But the Talking Points memo is an update on the terrible Lakin Riley murder in Georgia. So as we reported last week and yesterday, the 22-year-old nursing student at the University of Georgia was murdered. Her body found on the track at UGA. A police say she died from blunt, forced trauma.
Starting point is 00:01:28 An illegal alien named Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26-year-old from Venezuela, has been arrested. No plea yet from him. So he has not plead one way or the other. I assume he will plead not guilty, but I don't know that. Now, he is being held without bail in the Athens-Claar County Jail. Now, Athens-Claar County is a sanctuary county. So this guy Abara, he had problems in New York, and New York's a sanctuary city, and he was running around here, and he shouldn't have it. It's as simple as that. And News Nation had an
Starting point is 00:02:06 interesting take last night. It's not a breakdown of the system that led to the death of Ms. Riley. It is the system. The system of sanctuary is tolerated, encouraged by the Biden administration, who have opened the borders to more than 10 million foreign nationals largely unsupervised in this country. And 10% of them are vicious criminals. So it's not that we had a breakdown of any system. It's the Biden administration and the Democratic Party, which wants this chaos. They don't want to enforce immigration law. And that's absolutely true. There's no doubt about it. Now, President Biden did not call a family, as far as we know, and we're checking.
Starting point is 00:02:57 That's horrible. Is it not? Shouldn't that man, the President of the United States, have called that family? I would think. No. Issued a statement, the White House did issue some kind of mealy-mouse statement that said, oh, everybody should be held accountable if they do bad things. I'm not even going to read it.
Starting point is 00:03:19 It's such a stupid statement. And Biden didn't write it. I don't think he even knows it's out there. Somebody in the communications often put it out there. It's like means nothing. Now, here's a statement that does mean something from Lakin's family. Lakin was an amazing daughter, sister, friend, overall person in general. Her love for the Lord was exemplified in every aspect of her life.
Starting point is 00:03:41 She will be missed every day, but we promised to honor her life moving forward in a very big way. Now, that's a statement. Okay? The white of, well, we have to hold people accountable, yeah, like you hold anybody accountable, right? So anyway, this is a revolting story, and I went on News Nation last night with Leland Vitterd, and I kind of vented about it. Roll a tape. Barack Obama deported more foreign nationals than any other president in his eight years in office, all right? He understood President Obama did that this issue was dangerous to the American.
Starting point is 00:04:19 public. This is Barack Obama. His vice president, Joe Biden, had to know that. Yet Biden is a captive of the progressive movement, which doesn't want to stop migrants from coming to the U.S. And so Biden is 100% accountable for the death of this young girl in Georgia. That disqualifies Biden from anyone voting for him, he should get no votes in November because he is derelict in his duty. Wait, wait, I'm not through. He's derelict in his duty. This is an incompetent man who doesn't care about life and death. If he did, he would have stopped this three years ago because record amounts of fentanyl are killing hundreds of thousands of Americans. He doesn't care.
Starting point is 00:05:18 And anyone voting for him is in that boat, the same boat. And this is not a political statement. This is an incompetent man who should not be serving his president in the United States. And that's the truth. Well, there you go. I'm sorry I had to cut off Leland, but I had to say it. because it's true. And nobody can deny it.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Nobody would dare deny it, what I just said there. But the hatred of Donald Trump gives a rationalization to the millions of people who still support Joe Biden. Let me just tell you something. Your personal hatred of Donald Trump does not override the welfare of the United States of America, of America. And if you believe it does, you are a selfish person. And that's my judgment
Starting point is 00:06:16 about you. I understand you might hate Donald Trump. I'm not telling you to vote for Donald Trump. Don't vote at all. Vote the down ticket. But you vote for Biden in November, then you're part of the chain that led to the death of Lake and Riley. Now, the people who voted for Biden, in 2020 are not responsible because nobody knew Biden was going to be this corrupt and this apathetic and this incompetent. Nobody knew that. He didn't campaign on, I'm going to open the border and let 10 million foreign nationals in here unsupervised. He never said that. But on day one, he did it. And then in the midterms, all right, in 22, we didn't have a repudiation. of the Democratic Party. We didn't have that. I thought we were going to, and I predicted that
Starting point is 00:07:15 would happen, and it did not. So here we are nine months away from the presidential election, and we still have people going, yeah, I'm going to vote for Joe Biden. Okay. Everybody who votes should get a picture, a morgue picture of Lakin Riley. Instead of putting a Biden sticker on your car, Put her picture on the car. Because Biden did it. You can't walk away from it. You can't. He did it.
Starting point is 00:07:51 He's allowing it. And that's the memo. All right. So Biden is meeting with congressional leaders today, keeping the government open. It's every four months. This is a merry-go-round. Democrats won't cut spending.
Starting point is 00:08:09 And the Republicans have to go along or the government shuts down and everybody blames the Republican Party for the shutdown. And, you know, it's just ongoing, $34 trillion in debt. Again, you vote Democrat. You're voting for a bankruptcy that's going to happen. That's what you're voting for. No, but I hate Trump. Oh, okay. You know, I really don't want to hear it anymore.
Starting point is 00:08:32 I really don't. No matter how bad you think Trump is, he was in office for four years. This did not happen. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold.
Starting point is 00:09:03 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 medals delivered thousands of five-star reviews, and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau. You can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326, 5576, or text Bill to 99-8899.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Again, that's 866, 326-5576, 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. Biden, Seth Myers. Now, this is a fascinating story. And I don't know whether the media is just stupid or they won't report it. So I'm going to set you straight. Number one, Seth Myers is a smart guy. He's the smartest of all of the late-night hosts, just on an intelligence level.
Starting point is 00:10:43 I've been on a show a couple of times. I get along with him all right. But he is a leftist, committed leftist, all right, active leftist. That's fine. I have no problem with that. You know, if NBC wants to put him on, if he gets decent ratings, he's a leftist, that's all right. Greg Gutfeld's a rightist. He's a conservative.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Do I have any problem that he's on late night? No. Okay. So Myers gets an interview with Joe Biden, and Myers is on what? 2.30 in the morning? I mean, you're not going to do a Super Bowl interview, Joe Biden, where 20 million people would see you. You're going to do Seth Myers. We're 300,000. But we know that it all goes out on the Internet. We all know that. But this is strange, right? Why would you not do a Super Bowl interview with CBS, who loves you, across the board? Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:36 you're going in and Biden to Seth Myers. Okay, here is the reason. A deal was made. And the deal was that Seth Myers would not ask the president of the United States about the scorching border situation, which we just went over with Lake and Riley. No. Didn't ask him. Can you imagine any interviewer? Even a kid show. The kid would go, what about the water? No, not a word. 17% inflation for essentials of life? Nope. No. Now, to protect himself, Myers had to ask about the age thing, because he had to ask one tough question, right?
Starting point is 00:12:22 But Biden was ready for that. And he said, well, it doesn't matter how old you, how old your policies are. That was a rehearsed answer. He knew the question was coming. In fact, he knew every question that was coming. I'm going to run a little bit, a 12-second clip because that's all it's worth. Go. I think, I mean, this is not your father's Republican Party.
Starting point is 00:12:49 This is, they got about 30% of the Republican Party controlling it all, and I think we're going to break it. All right, that's fine. And he attacked Trump, fine. No problem. That's what these guys do, and I don't have any problem with that. My problem is that NBC made a deal with the White House, and put Biden on, he shows up, and didn't tell anybody. Just tell us, well, we're going to, this is an entertainment program.
Starting point is 00:13:19 And Myers hinted at it. Myers said during the interview, this isn't a gotcha program. Myers knew that guys like me were watching them. And they, he knew that by not asking about the border or inflation, or very, very serious situations that he was going to come under some scrutiny. But he hasn't. He hasn't. Every dispatch I've read about it hasn't mentioned any of this.
Starting point is 00:13:46 So the whole thing was choreographed, and the American people don't know that. Now you do. Polls, Harvard Harris, 2002 registered voters, Democrat 37, Republican 37, Republican 36, Independent 23. Fair poll. Okay, first question. If the election were held today, would you vote for, Trump or Biden? Forty-eight, Trump, 41, Biden don't know nine. If you don't know by this time, I don't know what they. I don't really believe that poll. I think it's much closer. I don't think Trump's up by seven. I could be wrong, obviously. maybe there's a shift, but this was before the Lake and Riley thing.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And by the way, something I forgot. Georgia now, Trump state. No way Georgia is even going to be competitive for Biden after this. So just put that in the Trump column. And Georgia went for Biden last time. You'll remember that was the big thing, why there's a criminal case down there. All right. Second question.
Starting point is 00:14:55 We're going to show you some names and tell me. whether you like them or not. Donald Trump, favorable 50%, unfavorable 47%. That's a high number for Trump, highest number I've seen. Biden, favorable 43, unfavorable 54. Robert Kennedy Jr., favorable 48 on February 31. That's RFK Jr.'s name that's driving that. Mickey Haley, favorable 42 on favorable 38.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Kamala Harris, favorable 42, unfavorable 51. And for a vice president, that is a terrible number. And that's why Harris is never going to be able to be competitive in the presidential sweepstakes. Okay. Border wall, Monmouth University. Very shaky poll. So I got to be up front about this. I got to tell you who's doing what.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Very shaky. 902 adults, not registered voters, not likely voters, adults. Okay. All right. Do you favor or oppose building a wall a U.S. border with Mexico? go favor 53, oppose 46. Okay, how serious a problem is illegal immigration? Total serious, 84, not serious, 15. Now, it is worth noting that in April 2019, Trump, Trump administration, only 42% of Americans say they're back building a wall. All right, so that is
Starting point is 00:16:19 up 11% because of all the madness. I thought it'd be up more. Michigan primaries today, nothing really there. Trump will win handily, and Biden will win handily. There's, you know, this squad congressperson, Rashida Talib, her sister, they don't like Trump because Trump nominally supports Israel. So these are people who hate Israel, you know. And so they're trying to tell Democrats in the Michigan primary, vote non-committed, don't vote for Biden.
Starting point is 00:16:54 I don't think it's going to have any effect, but we'll see tomorrow. Kansas City shooting update. Terrible story. I wrote the message of the day. And again, you don't have to be a member of Bill O'Reilly.com to read the message or the columns. Just go there. So two weeks from tomorrow was the mass shooting for the Super Bowl parade in Kansas City. We still don't know what happened.
Starting point is 00:17:17 After two weeks, we don't know why that happened. That's insane. Cops, no. Four people are in custody, two adults, both African-American, two minors who don't know anything about the minors, but I can bet you a million dollars are African-American, okay? Because if they were white, that would be splashed all over the media. And there's no doubt about that. If they were white, if there was a white shooter, okay, killing an African-American at the Kansas City Super Bowl parade, boom. CNN would do a telethon on it. Anyway, this is a public safety issue, as I say in my message of the day. People in Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas, wherever, they don't know why this happened. Was it gang related? How did the miners get guns? How did they get guns? Zero blackout. Nothing coming out.
Starting point is 00:18:20 It's because of the mayor of Kansas City. He shut it all down. Mayor's African American. This is a skin color play. It's been going on. It goes on all over the country, not just skin color either. It goes on with lifestyle. You remember back in, let's see, the shooting in Tennessee, transgender.
Starting point is 00:18:46 Okay, Audrey Hale, 28 years old. Okay, goes in March 27. 2023, almost a year ago, shoots up a Christian school, kills six people. We still don't know why this transgender person did it. They won't release what she wrote down. She wrote down why she did it. They will release it. Now, does Freedom of Information Act stuff all over the place, but they're protecting her.
Starting point is 00:19:20 She's dead, but they're protecting trans people. I guess this is what it is. But public safety overrides this. Okay. I don't really even care about this trans thing. I do care about the Kansas City thing. I want to know why that happened. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One.

Postcast podcast, listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Smart money. So we're always looking to save you money. You know that. Smart life segment we do
Starting point is 00:21:04 every day. And we've had great success in saving you a lot of money in insurance and medical and all that. So there are money saving apps. Now believe me, I couldn't find an app if my life depended on it. But my crack tech crew, so there's a lot of money saving apps. So I said, okay, let's analyze them and see if they're effective in saving our audience some money. So the first one we analyzed was acorns. It's a company that links up your banking and credit card accounts and monitors your transactions. Don't do this. that you don't do you don't want anyone knowing about your financial transactions other than the credit card company itself and your financial advisors do not put that out on the internet so that's out then we got uh operton okay this is kind of like that they analyze checking transactions along with your spending habits and your balance and the algorithm determines where you can save money but you've got to give us them all your checking information, don't do that. One hack and you're a toast. All right,
Starting point is 00:22:26 capital with a Q, Q-A-P-I-T-A-L. It's a personal finance app that you get, you have to give them your savings account information. Again, you're insane if you give any internet, anybody, any stranger, your financial information. Don't do it. Smart life. Rocket money acts as a financial control center where you link all your banking credit card investment accounts. My God, who's doing this? The only one we found that might benefit you on this app thing is YNAB, you need a budget. This app helps break up large expenses like insurance premiums and gives you tips on how to bring that down or pay them in a different way. So if you're going to do any of this, you check that
Starting point is 00:23:25 out, but do not, again, give them any personal information. All right. Now, I don't watch the view on ABC, even though I've appeared on it a dozen times. I don't really have time to do that. But we monitor that ABC News program. Remember, it comes under the ABC News banner. It's not an entertainment program. So we know the ladies. We know what their point of view is. And okay, again, I don't have any beef with that. If you want to watch the view, go ahead. It's all left-wing stuff all the time. So yesterday, Dr. Phil shows up on the view because he's got a new book. All right. And the book is called We've Got Issues, and it came out today, all right? So it's his first day publication.
Starting point is 00:24:21 And he goes on the show, and he knows, because Phil is a traditional guy, all right? The country's noble, hard work and responsibility is what molds a worthwhile life. You know, Phil's message is fairly traditional. So he walks into the lion's debt. Roll the tape. Are you saying no schoolchildren died of COVID? I'm saying it was the safest group. They were the less vulnerable group,
Starting point is 00:24:50 and they suffered and will suffer more from the mismanagement of COVID than they will from the exposure to COVID. And that's not an opinion. That's a fact. Oh, those ladies didn't like that. Oh, no, no. And joining us now from New York City is the afternoon. aforementioned. Dr. Phil McGraw, you know him, 21 years on TV. You know, he and I have started
Starting point is 00:25:16 pretty much the same time. I'm on Fox, and he was on CBS in the national realm. He's written 10 New York Times of bestsellers. He's got nine more to go before he catches me. How to put that in, Phil? I had a gratuitous comment. I had to do it. Ego out of control. Right here, you're looking at it. Anyway, the book is how you can, we've, got issues, how you can stand strong for America's soul and sanity. So I'm looking at the book and you have a problem here. And I don't even know whether you know the problem in your book, but I want your comment on it. What you write is perfect for people who would reasonably consider it. Responsibility, hard work, love of country, love of family, respective family,
Starting point is 00:26:06 traditional down the line. But we live in a world now where a lot of people have made their own fantasy lives from social media, from the internet. They don't live in the real world anymore, and therefore those motivations that you write about are lost on millions and millions of people who live on this. This is what they live on. Did you consider that when you were writing the book? I did. And my hope is because I also exist on those devices that people check 352 times a day and YouTube and all of these devices that maybe I can get somebody's attention that isn't a natural Dr. Phil follower or fan. And I've got to get people's attention in some kind of way because, look, I don't even pretend or try to think that those people are going to flock to listen to me,
Starting point is 00:27:17 but I don't make any mistake about it. I love this country. I love it enough to admit that it's got flaws and fallacies, but I love this country. I mean, I stand up when the flag goes by. I put my hand over my heart when they play the national anthem. I love this country. But does it have problems? Of course it does. And I can admit that. But we've got to take the narratives back in America. We've got this, I call them tyranny of the friends, these activists that are pushing these crazy, I think wild agendas.
Starting point is 00:27:52 And I think if you have somebody that can't show you fact, can't show you science, wants to rewrite history, something's way out of whack. And you're the history expert around here. And we've got people that are wanting to pretend things didn't happen that happened. They're wanting to rewrite things and tell our children, how are our children supposed to learn from mistakes we've made historically if they want to come in and wokewash history and take all of this out
Starting point is 00:28:26 so the kids don't learn what happened at a different time? Not only that the kids don't learn, but the skew is that we're an evil country. But look, you were in the environment yesterday that enables these fringe players to gain power. So the national media in America now is 80 to 90 percent pushing the progressive agenda. That's what really has driven this so quickly and gotten into the woke, equity, America's bad. We need to throw out everything, zone, because the media does not challenge that. How do you deal with that? Well, one of the ways you deal with it is what I did yesterday, and I'll keep doing, is I'll go into the lion's den and talk to them.
Starting point is 00:29:27 right there you've done it when you've gone in and you call things as they are i'm i'll go in there and you know somebody and one of their real often used tricks is i'll say something and they'll say so you're saying no you don't need to paraphrase me we were both here uh did i say did i say nobody no children died from this yeah i did because i'm stupid right of course i didn't say that. What I'm saying is this was a low-risk group. We were able to keep open all essential services, including, you know, grocery stores, first responders, hospitals, horn shops. They kept crazy things open, but we're going to shut down the schools. And, you know, I hear them say, okay, look, we closed the schools here. And in 0809, when these smartphones came,
Starting point is 00:30:24 out, something really started happening. We saw the biggest spike in anxiety, depression, loneliness, suicidal ideation, suicidality among young people that we have ever seen. And it continued getting worse from the time the smartphones came out, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12. It continued to get worse. The worst since they started keeping records. And they know this. And then so we see COVID hit in 2020. and they say, we're going to close the schools for a couple of weeks. I say, okay, that's fine. I get it. You need to get your bearings.
Starting point is 00:31:01 But then when they said, all right, we're going to keep the schools closed for the rest of the year, and then they're going to keep them closed in the fall. I came out at the time and said, this is a really bad idea. We've got a mental health crisis among these young people, and you're going to close the schools, which is their life. They've been more isolated, right. Now, why do you think you get pushback from the committed left? Why do the ladies of the view look askance at your position?
Starting point is 00:31:31 Because I think they believe and have bought into the fact that this is, was at the time, some kind of right mentality to shut everything down. They look at this virus as though I guess it treats everybody the same. I don't think they should have shut the schools down. And I said so at the time. I said the treatment of these kids and the effects of the quarantine are going to create more problems for these kids than the virus ever will. And when I said that, everybody acted like I was some kind of crazy man, heretic to say that. Now, when that actually came true, when it actually came true, then I didn't get any calls saying, hey, we're sorry, we were wrong about that.
Starting point is 00:32:20 You were right. You'll never do. But you are prospering in Fauci. I think is in Molokai, Hawaii, in a former leper colony. He's out. So you want. Last question. Somebody buys the book, and, you know, people don't read as much as they used to anymore. You've got to really have a hook to get them to buy your book. What is your hook? What will people learn when they read, you've got issues, or we've got issues, I should say? that is a great question and here's the thing i think people know what i'm saying is right a lot of
Starting point is 00:33:01 people know what i'm saying is right they know that what is being pushed on them by these extreme activists is wrong but they don't know the facts to use to push back what they need are the talking points the facts to push back and i'm giving them the facts i'm giving them the empirical data. Let me give you an example. And I'm not going to row on forever here. Let me give you an example. They're using these trigger warnings in the universities where our coddled young people are being treated like they were some kind of delicate flowers that can't be taught how to live in the real world. We've got the vast majority of universities using trigger warnings to alert these kids that, oh, something might come up that upset you. Well,
Starting point is 00:33:48 you know what trigger warnings don't work trigger warnings actually create the very thing that they're alerting kids could happen which is create anxiety uh panic attacks whatever they actually create what they're warning against now the research which is very i mean it's a big body of literature here that says they don't work in fact they say they're counterproductive because what you want to do with people that are sensitive to that it's teach them coping skills you see you Systematic decentralization, dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, whatever. So they learn to cope with this stuff, so they're not paralyzed by it. They're doing exactly what you're not supposed to do.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Now, here's the thing, Bill. These universities are, they have access to the same literature that I have access to, which is that this is the wrong thing to do. But they continue to do it because they're virtue signaling. They're virtue signaling. They're woke and they're virtue signaling. All right. The book is, we've got issues.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Doc, we appreciate you. Welcome any time on the program and keep fighting a good fight, all right? Hey, thanks for what you do. Keep doing it, my friend. See you later. Thank you. All right. Just say in history, February 27, 2014, Barack Obama, President of the United States, kicks off his Brothers Keeper initiative. Roll it. But what we're talking about here today with my brother's keeper is a more focused effort. on boys and young men of color who are having a particularly tough time. And in this effort, government cannot play the only or even the primary role. We can help give every child access to quality preschool and help them start learning from an early age,
Starting point is 00:35:35 but we can't replace the power of a parent who's reading to that child. Okay, you may know this, I've mentioned it before, but I was involved with the Brothers Keeper Initiative at the High level, Barack Obama. And I was there on February 27, 2014, in the crowd. And the crowd was you had Michelle Obama, Colin Powell there, Magic Johnson, Michael Bloomberg, mayor in New York City, Eric Holder. He wouldn't talk to me. And unfortunately, Al Sharpton, when I saw Sharpton, I was disappointed. We didn't need race hustlers there. Now, my brother's keeper is a mentoring program. And the only way, the only way to save a generation of children who do not have responsible parents whose fathers leave who are abused, neglected, whatever, is to get
Starting point is 00:36:32 them mentors. Now, I support a charity in Washington, D.C., called Best Friends, and I have for decades. And this is what Best Friends does, an offshoot of Brothers Keeper. The good news is that Brothers Keeper is still alive, all right? 250 communities have it. Could have been bigger. And someday I'll tell you that whole story. President Obama and I discussed a real huge worldwide deal for Brothers Keeper. It never came to fruition.
Starting point is 00:37:03 And, you know, the world of politics is very murky. But anyway, it is a worthy, worthy program, and it was announced to, you know, day in 2014 all right we got good mail we got a final thought you'll like right back let's go to the mail frank woods buffalo new york nicky haley grabbed 40% of south carolina vote not a small number so any chance she in comp could bury the hatchet i don't know about any hatchets um i think that um a week let's see today's tuesday super tuesday is in a week, the Wednesday after Super Tuesday, I think Nikki Haley will say goodbye. Could be wrong, I'm just guessing.
Starting point is 00:37:49 When she does, she'll endorse Trump. She has to, because she wants to run for president herself in 2008. It has to be a good Republican. So is that Barry an ad? I don't know. Robert Hulkin, Houston, Texas. Bill, I suppose, as you said, many Trump supporters want to punish the progressives. But I'm not sure Donald Trump would punish an amorphic blob.
Starting point is 00:38:10 I believe Trump, and many more of its supporters, want to reverse a progressive policy. Yeah, but they want to do it with a hammer. So, trust me on this. Tim Harrow, Surgeonville, Tennessee, Bill Lovie's straightforward analysis. She said Republicans want to punish a progressive movement, but I think the root issue is accountability. There's no accountability in society, let alone government anymore. It's not accountability. As we just talked with Dr. Phil, it's these loons who are in Poland.
Starting point is 00:38:40 this destructive agenda on the country. Now, they're private citizens, most of them. You can't hold them accountable. It's freedom of speech. So, you know, look, you know what the culture war is. Is Donald Trump going to win the culture war? No. Will he damage the progressives? Yes, if he's elected. James, you're absolutely correct when you say conservatives want to totally defeat the decadent progressive last time. Cindy Kelly, the village is Florida. Democrats say Trump will be a dictator, if elected. Is Biden not acting like one? He disregards USA laws regarding our border and student loan forgiveness. He has the power to forgive student loans taken from the federal government. Just everybody should know that. Supreme Court said he couldn't do it
Starting point is 00:39:26 in private loans. Everybody should know them. John Concierge member, thank you, John, it's an insurance policy for your life. Concierge membership, check it out on bill O'Reilly.com. It will enhance your life. Bill, when Biden was elected, you said you would give him a chance. And you did. Some viewers criticized you for giving him a chance. Slowly, you began to simmer with disgust for Biden as did I. It's not disgust, this anger. Not disgusted. I'm angry. This is getting people killed. As I said, at top of the program. Keith, concierge member, thank you, Keith. Bill, being fair in most cases means being honest. Thanks for being honest. You're welcome. And I agree with that. That's a very good statement you made. Being fair means being honest.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Stephen Sarlie, Green Acres, Florida, thanks for the PolicyGenius recommendation. I save $3,000. PolicyGenius.com. If you're insurance, you can save big money. And that's what we're here to do. You welcome, Stephen. I'm glad you used it. Joyce Kennedy, Casper Wyoming. just finished the United States of Trump, and since the book ended in 2019, I wonder what your opinion is concerning Mr. Trump since then. He's the same, with one exception. He's angrier because of the legal cases. So he's an angrier guy than he was in 2019 when he was president. But personality-wise, the way he goes about things, pretty much the same. to go to the Bill O'Reilly.com store and get nifty gifts for anybody that you want to get them

You're getting there. Word of the day, do not, no caper lash. Caper like little food, C-A-P-E-R-L-A-S-H. Great word, caper lash. So many good words in English that nobody ever uses.
Starting point is 00:41:55 Back with a final thought on Hunter Biden in a moment. Okay, final thought of the day, Hunter Biden testifies tomorrow. I think it begins at 10 a.m. in front of the House committees. Leaks will start shortly after lunch. See, they break for lunch, and then the leak start. I don't expect much. Hunter Biden's very well rehearsed. Not going to take the fifth.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Okay, he's going to go in. He's going to say the following. My father had nothing to do with any of my enterprises. He didn't know. The big guy is, I don't know who the big guy is going to be. That should be the first question. Who is the big guy? That Godzilla?
Starting point is 00:42:31 Who is it? I don't know. But I don't expect Hunter Biden to give you anything. Zero. okay he's been rehearsed rehearse rehearse rehearse rehearse he will stay in that window no matter what the questions are okay well it'll be interesting to see the democrats who defend hunter Biden that's the story for me the republicans to try to tear his throat out you know that okay and they'll grandstand there'll be all over fox news tomorrow night you'll see it we know that but the democrats who try to prop him up
Starting point is 00:43:06 and defend Hunter Biden. I'm interested to hear that. So that testimony, we are on it as we are on everything. And be skeptical, though. When you hear about the leaks and all of that, be skeptical. The House will release a full transcript of the Hunter Biden Q&A, and they say they're going to release it quickly. And that will be another thing that we all should read.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Thank you for watching and listening to the no-spin news tonight. I told you it was going to be lively, right? I'll never mislead you. We'll see you tomorrow.
