Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Thursday, January 25th, 2024, stand up for your country. Well, as we predicted yesterday, you know, I think that all the campaigns watch the no-spin news because it's just too much of a coincidence When I say something on one day and 12 to 24 hours later, boom, you know, we know somebody's watching. So anyway, Nikki Haley is calling for a debate with Donald Trump.

I said that was the first thing she was going to do after leaving New Hampshire and going back home to South Carolina. And that is the first thing she did. I debated the debate thing with Sean Hannity. I mentioned it yesterday. It's a good debate on the radio, and it's on Bill O'Reilly.com, free. You don't be a premium member. You don't have to juggle. You just go there and pop it up.

He doesn't think, Hannity doesn't think, that Trump should debate, and I do. I think it would be a mistake for Donald Trump not to debate Nikki Haley. I think he'd benefit from it big time. So the Haley challenge is the subject of this evening's talking points memo. The former ambassador in the United Nations, Governor of South Carolina, is 52 years old. Donald Trump is 77. Okay. So, Haley's saying he's an old guy.

He's in decline cognitively. There's no difference between him and Biden. They're both old guys. They're both diminished. And she wasted no time putting that out there. Go. And so he got upset and he said that he. he would take one and he'd challenge me to one and that he would beat me.

Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't. But what I said is, okay, well, if that's the case, then get on a debate stage and let's go. Bring it, Donald. Show me what you got. All right, so she's talking about a cognitive test and whatever. Now, Haley's smart to do that. She's got no chance to win even if she waxed Trump in a debate. which to me would be almost impossible if Trump just stayed on how he governed.

I mean, if he starts making fun of her dress and things like that, all right. But I have to assume that at this point in his life, that Donald Trump can rally around his accomplishments. Now, maybe I'm wrong. And if I'm wrong, he's going to lose. He's not going to win. If he continues the personal stuff, the immature stuff, the election stuff. the January 6th stuff, all that should be right out the window. Now, on WABC this morning, he's talking to Sid Rosenberg, we do that every Thursday. It's worth a listen. I think we have

that posted as well. And Rosenberg said, well, Trump can't change that much because his audience is expecting him to be feisty and confrontative. He can be that. You can be that. I do it all a time. I'm about as confrontational broadcasters, you're going to find anywhere in a world. But I keep it at an elevated status. I keep it in policy. When I waxed Barney Frank, and if you haven't seen that, Bill O'Reilly, Bonnie Frank, boom. There was anger in the air there, because Bonnie Frank, in my opinion, and we proved it, it was lying. But it was about an issue. It was about banks lending money to people who couldn't pay the money back, therefore leading to a recession. That's what it was about.

And it had nothing to do with Barney Frank's shoes or his Lisp or whatever it may be. I would never do that. It doesn't get you anywhere. So Trump should turn this around and use the forum, the debate forum, to make his case to the country. that he would be a far better president than Joe Biden. Yeah, he's got to address Haley, but that's easy. It's simple. If you look at the core belief system,

Haley and Trump's belief system are very compatible. It's a matter of style. Okay, so in the meantime, Haley is being buoyed, word of the day, by Republican billionaires. It's very interesting. So next week, New York City, Leonard Stern, Stanley Drucken Miller, Ken Langone,

Henry Kravitz. They're co-hosting a big fundraiser for Haley. Why? Because they're afraid Trump's going to lose. That's why. That's why they're doing it. And the Republican billionaires don't want the progressives

to have four more years and a doddering Joe Biden because they understand how much damage he's doing to the country. And they're worried that Trump will lose because of demeanor. And then Tim Draper, big Silicon Valley guy, he's got a February 6th fundraiser for Haley, February 15th, Harlan Crow, the big Dallas real estate guy. And then a fundraiser by Ross Perra. Jr., Susan Rockefeller, Carl Rove's ex-wife, or current wife, Karen, his wife, Karen, Patumi,

on and on and on and on. So the Republican establishment is worried about Trump, that he will do this. So Haley's going to have a massive amount of money, but it won't matter because the MAGA people will override the moderate Republicans. I wrote a message of the day. I'm Bill O'Reilly.com. This is the third tip now. First, we got Hannity,

then we got CID on W.A.B.C. Now we got message of the day. Excuse me. And I pinpoint why Trump overwhelms Haley among Republicans. And it all has to do with anger. Okay? So you might want to read that.

In a CNN exit poll in New Hampshire, 70% of those who voted for Nikki Haley on Tuesday aren't Republicans. But what does that tell you? That the Republican MAGA people, the folks are going to vote for Trump. And it doesn't matter how much money Haley raises. And it doesn't matter what she does in a debate. They're going to stand by their man. An S. M.O. 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.

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.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. All right. Joe Biden goes to Minnesota, Wisconsin. He lands in Minnesota, goes over to Wisconsin. There's a bridge. John Blatnick Memorial Bridge. Okay. So Biden's going. there to announce he's federal government's going to kick five billion with a b into this bridge the 34 billion trillion i should say i can't even keep track of it 34 trillion dollar debt in this country

and biden's run around going hey want a few billion hey hey zolensky you want 65 more billion yeah here you go hey there you go border or near owen to be billion hey come at this is so irresponsible never solves a problem. Now, maybe the bridge needs the five-bill— I don't know. I don't know the bridge. But this is all the Democrats have. More spending, more spending, more taxes, more taxes.

My God. Biden yesterday kicks off his campaign, Tuesday, right? Tuesday. In Northern Virginia, Manassas. So he and Vice President, go out and it's all about abortion, abortion, abortion. We dealt with this yesterday. So if you're from Botswana and you just arrive here in America,

you would think abortion is the most noble thing in the world. It's great. Abortion, yeah. It's a destructive procedure. Necessary sometimes, absolutely. Save a mother's life. save a mother's life with catastrophic health necessary, but not noble. So Biden says it is, more abortions are better. There isn't, and I have my research team, he has never said Joe Biden, since he has been vice president or president,

that there should be any restraints on abortion. None. Whatever time you want, ninth month? Whatever reason, you got a headache, panic attack, whatever? No, Joe's okay with it. All right, so the bishop, Catholic bishop in northern Virginia, man named Michael Burbidge, puts out a statement. Here it is. President Biden has made abortion as centerpiece of his campaign. At a rally in Manassas, he advocated for codifying Roe v. Wade into law. It is incredibly devastating to know. President Biden would place choice. above his sacred duty to protect life. Despite what this administration claims

taking the life of an innocent child is never a choice. Women who are facing unexpected or difficult pregnancies deserve assistance that affirms and supports life, not destroy it, unquote. Okay. So Biden, and this is a personal matter with him, not public matter, goes against

a basic tenet of his church, of his religion. Now, while we couldn't find any restraint in the past 15, 20 years, we went back further on Biden. Listen to this. This is amazing. In 1977, while he was a senator from Delaware, it was a compromise to allow Medicaid, that's government-run funds for the poor

to fund abortions. Biden wrote against it. 1997. No public funds for abortion, Joe Biden. All right. 1981, same thing. Rape and incest then were included in this Medicaid situation. Biden had rape and incest taken out.

1981. 1986, he told a Catholic newspaper, abortion is wrong from the moment of conception, unquote. That's 1986. So here we have a man who has done a complete 180 on a moral issue with no explanation. nation. None. Now, I've told you and told you and told you. Joe Biden believes in nothing. There isn't anything he believes in. There's no moral compass, no moral foundation. He's a man of no seasons. Whatever propels him to power and wealth, and you'll see, that's coming, okay,

he's going to do. That's pretty despicable, in my opinion. all right Jill Biden just as bad firstly just as bad but she doesn't parade around as the Catholic of the year like her husband does so she is bringing Kate Cox 31 years old Dallas Texas mother of two

Cox had to have an abortion in her opinion and her doctor's opinion as well because she was pregnant with a rare disorder that increases is the risk of stillbirth. So she couldn't get the abortion because she was 20 weeks pregnant. In Texas, she had to leave the state to get it. Very tragic situation. Right? No matter where you stand on the issue, my God. So she's coming to the State of the Union as Jill Biden's guest. They are exploiting her. That's what they're doing.

All right, TV ratings to the New Hampshire primary. I knew this was going to be a disaster. All the primetime coverage, six million Americans watched. All of them added up. All right. Four years ago, about nine million watched. It was cut two thirds. One third, cut.

Okay. Now, six million people watching is nothing. There's nothing. I had six million people watched on a factor on many nights. There are 125 million homes in the United States with television sets. Six million watched. What does that say? Number one, most people aren't paying attention yet. If you can believe it, I can't believe. It's such an important election. But that's what it says. They're not dialed in yet.

And number two, they're bored. Already. Already they're bored. Okay? That's what it tells me. It also is on the shoulders of the television personalities themselves. As we told you yesterday, we ran a montage. The most incisive comment I heard was, we'll have to wait and see.

And then we listed, you know, about 20 seconds, I think there was six. or we can say, you know, come on, if you're being paid a lot of money to deliver television analysis, you've got to have more than we have to wait and see. You got to have more than what do you make of that? You got to have more than tell me more. Come on. You know, believe me, if I went in and ran a news operation, a cable news operation, I'd have to live 50% of the personnel go because they're just incompetent. They can't do it. It's not like to know it's been news where we have the Navy SEALs here. All right, Pew Research.

This is a social thing, American society. 5,75 respondents, okay, equally divided Republican Democrat. Your religious beliefs. Okay. U.S. adults who identify as Protestant, 40%. Catholic, 20%. That's down. Now, unaffiliated, those are called nuns, not Catholic nuns, N-O-N-E-S, nuns.

We don't have any religion. 28%. Okay, other faith, 9. Percentage of the nuns, the people who are, I don't really care about this, who are atheists, 17, that's pretty low. Agnostic, that means I don't know, and I don't really care. Okay, 37% of this. the nuns. And the other nuns, they basically say, hey, I believe in a higher power, but I worship my own way, and that's okay, I guess. But without structure, without guidance, without discipline,

what good is it? I don't know. Maybe it's good for you. And the younger people, 18 to 29, they dominate, you know. There's no religious instruction in public school, as you know, at home. Very little, unless you're a traditional home. If you're in a traditional home, then you get it. 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, newsmakers, and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. 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 Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, smart life. This is an important segment. So a lot of Americans are overweight. I think it's half of us are overweight. And some of us are on the way to the grave because we're to Zaftig.

Okay. So losing weight makes you healthier. Makes you look better. It's important. Many millions of Americans led by Marie Osmond, who's on television more than anyone, I think Marie Osmond is on television more than anyone, okay, is losing weight. Good. Now, to me, I've gone over this before.

If you cut out the sugar and fast food and you walk three, four times a week, you'll lose weight. Now, you've got to disappoint yourself. Maybe two desserts a week, maybe one pizza a week, you know, pizza dinner once. But you've got to get away from the fat and the garbage, all right, the junk food. and sugar is going to kill you. Now, once in a while, okay, but you're eating sugar every day. It's a matter of when, not if. Okay, so there was a study done by dieticians, and it said,

weight loss is a personal journey. I hate that, okay, and you should keep it personal. I like that. All right, because if you broadcast your quest to lose weight, you may get snide criticism. You know how people are. An unwanted comments. Why do you want that stress? Why?

So this applies not only to losing weight, but it applies to anything personal in your life that you're trying to do. Good or bad. Don't broadcast it. Now, if you have a confidant, somebody who's stood. the test of time. Somebody you can actually look at and say, just between you and me, and no, it's going to be kept just between you and me. And that's rare. That is rare. But if you have somebody, then you can talk about anything. And I hope you do have somebody. I really hope you do. But most people don't. And broadcasting about your weight problem or whatever it is

that's ailing you or your family problems, don't do it. Don't do it. Unless you think the person can help, really, in a profound way. But even then, boy, you've got to be careful. So keep it to yourself, discipline, and they give you a tip here. Walk 10,000 steps a day and use a fitness app to track. Okay. I don't walk 10,000 steps a day because Holly to Terra dog is a little dog, okay?

I have to drag Holly the Terah dog when I take her out because I have a big stride and I'm like when I go out to walk, I move it and there's Holly going like this. I don't walk 10,000 steps a day. I see 5,000 steps a day. So you get the little gizmo, you put it on your soul, whatever it is, I don't even have it. I don't care. okay but I walk as much as I can all right that combined with a better diet then I don't have a weight problem and the reason I don't have one is because

of clothes for I get free clothes okay and if I get chubby I grow out of the free clothes so there I have to buy the clothes now I don't want to do that I like the free clothes okay what do you want to do with your life if you're under 30 if you're over 30 you're already in you know what you're doing so there is a gallop survey released this week about honesty and ethics how americans see various professions and we are going to discuss it now it's very interesting clergy please tell me how you would rate the honesty and ethical standards of the clergy in this country.

High, 32%. That's not good. Average 45, low 20. Now, my experience with the clergy in Catholic circles, 50% good. 50% no. Members of Congress, high, honesty and ethic, 6%. Average 24, low 70. This is embarrassing.

70% of Americans believe Congress is corrupt. And they have a good reason. Because they're in there and they get very little done. It's all about me, right? All about me. Not about you, the voter, the American citizen. Next one, senators, so members of Congress of Congress people, senators, pretty much the same.

High ethics, eight, average 30, low 61 they're held in a little bit more steam this one surprised me lawyers 16 high average 52 low 31 uh i would flip the average in the low okay but maybe it's because i live in the northeast and there's a different the legal firm here is absolutely falling apart well probably in other parts of the country is not what's bad you need a good lawyer a trusted lawyer medical doctors high 56 average 30 low 13 okay that's good you need a good doctor nurses high 78 much higher than doctors average 18 low three nursing is a noble profession police officers high 45 average 37 low 18 i think that's uh i would that's a little low for me

i think police officers generally speaking across the country could earn a lot more money doing something else that's number one you got to respect the fact that they're protecting and serving at a lower salary and most of them are honest journalists hello journalists high ethics 19 average 34, low 47. That's cutting journalists a break. Right now, 50%, maybe 55 of journalists are corrupt. By that I mean, they do what they're told to do. Now, if you don't, then you're going to have to move on.

Because if your immediate superior in a newsroom, news organization tells you to do something, and it's wrong and you don't do it by you're gone there's no appeal there's no anything okay you're dead so i understand what's happening but you have to live with it i never lived with it okay so i moved all over the country mostly good experiences but some bad some corrupt i walked right out of the corrupt places. Bye. See you. Not going to do it. Yeah, I know. It's a self-aggrandizement for me, but you could ask anybody. And I've been in journalism now 49 years. I got a lot of people that I worked with. You could ask anybody. I would never do anything corrupt. It was so offensive to me. I'm going out and covering a story in an honest way. I'm not letting you change my script.

I write every word I say. I always have. Nobody writes for me, ever. All right. Florida, let's go back down. So you know I'm mad at Pensacola for taking books out of the school libraries, John Grisham, Stephen King,

and Frank Bill O'Reilly, killing Jesus, killing Reagan. Inexplicable. And these pinheads in that school district did it because they could. because the law is too vague about what books can be in school libraries. So they're idiots, and they're abusing the children. The more Jesus the kids can get, the better.

Okay, so now there's a new law down there in Florida. Florida Board of Governors says that the 12 major universities in Florida, as well as 28 smaller colleges, cannot use any state or federal money. to promote any DEI. That's diversity, equity, inclusion. Now, the problem is that's very subjective. Now, here's what the Florida people say. So you cannot promote preferential treatment

on the basis of race, color, sex, national orienting, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Any program that does that, Can't get any money. Can't promote it. I'm afraid that the fanatics are going to go in and wreck some good programs under this law, because that's what happened under the books. So I'm watching it, all right?

But Florida is the most conservative state and the union when it comes to attacking DEI. No question about it. All right, it's a fun story. This day in history, January 25th, 1970, a movie debuted across the country. I saw this movie very early on. It's so Donald Sutherland, Elliot Gould, Sally Kellerman, and Robert Dughey. The movie was called Mash. Roll it. I've also noticed that nurses as well as enlisted men address you as Hawkeye. Yeah, because that's my name, Khy Pierce. Well, that kind of informality is inconsistent with maximum efficiency in a military organization. Oh, come off it, Major! You put me right off my fresh-fried lobster. Do you realize that? I'm going to go back to my bed. I'm going to put away the best part of a bottle of scotch.

And under normal circumstances, you being normally what I would call a very attractive woman, I would have invited you back to share my little bed with me and you might possibly have come. But you really put me off. I mean, you're what we call... a regular army clown. I wonder how a degenerated person like that could have reached a position of responsibility in the Army Medical Corps. He was drafted.

It's a great movie. If you haven't seen MASH, you need it so well-written, won the Academy Award for original screenplay and the acting and everything. Now, it's an anti-war film, and they put it up. out Robert Altman is directly. Kind of a crazy guy. Legend. But it was a Vietnam era.

Okay. This was 54 years ago, January 25th, 1970. It was right in the middle of the Vietnam thing. And this war, this movie took place in Korea, the Korean War, but it was really about Vietnam. And the message was that war is bad and all that. But they did it so well. Okay. And one of my favorite movies of all time. So then two years later, the movie made, by the way, about $82 million, and it cost $3 million to make. So big home run back in 1970. Then two years later, it was a TV show. They morphed it because, you know, there was a material was there, people liked it, whatever. The only actor who appeared in both TV and a movie is Gary Bergdorf, who played Radar O'Reilly. So, of course, I have an affinity for Gary.

He was the only one that crossed over. The TV show starred Alan Alda, Wayne Rogers, Loretta, Swit. Same thing, all right? But it became a monster, monster hit. 11 years it ran and had the biggest TV audience for a finale ever. I think it was more than Seinfeld. Cheers. They're all up there.

But at the time, I mean, the thing was just overwhelming. So MASH, 1970, debuted today. Okay, male segment, a final thought, and the final thought is going to pertain directly to your life if you get upset. Most of human beings get upset. Some don't, some are zombies, but most do. If you do, hang tough for my final thought, right back.

Okay, let's get to the male. We got Melly. Any other Catholic that would run out publicly and endorse abortion would have to answer to the church, yet Joe Biden skates through it without any penalty. I, not where I am. The Roman Catholic authorities here in the Northeast, they don't sanction people. They don't. And that's a bone of contention. But the bishops don't want any controversy. They don't.

So Joe Biden is not denied communion except in San Francisco, very conservative archbishop there. I think the guy in Northern Virginia that we quoted earlier, I think he has denied, told Biden don't show up here. but Joe Biden can walk into 90% of the American Catholic churches and get community. And that's just the way it is. George, concierge member, thank you, George. O'Reilly says Trump should debate Haley. Then O'Reilly admits she will try to slime him.

Then O'Reilly admits that before any words or utter, the press will declare Haley the winner. Somehow this is supposed to be convinced Trump to do with the debate. debate. Okay, look, yes, Haley's going to attack Trump. Try to provoke it. Trump's going to know that going in. Right? What did Ronald Reagan do? There you go again. Okay? Easy. Up, swat it. Okay? Yes, the press is going to say Haley won, even if she collapses on stage and has to be stretched off. Of course, we all know that. In that exposition, Haley, Trump, debate, you will have millions of independent voters watching. They're not going to watch the mega rallies.

Not going to mega rallies. They're not going to even go to the town halls with Donald Trump. It gets maybe four million people now to watch the town halls. All of them are going to vote for him. That is a big opportunity. David Huddle, Yukon, Oklahoma. I agree that Trump should use a debate. Trump should use a debate with Haley to bring up Biden's shortcomings while being polite to the

ambassador, and that would win over a lot of voters. Okay, so I understand this controversy. Again, my debate Hannity on it, and you can listen to that. James Holland, El Paso, Texas, I disagree with you on Trump debating Haley. To me, that would just legitimize her candidacy and make people feel he's afraid of her. no it's the opposite if he doesn't debate he's afraid of her and legitimize her candidacy James she's in the game

she got hundreds of thousands of votes in New Hampshire and Iowa you're not to legitimize her candidacy she's there Randall Dean Battle Creek Michigan it's hard to watch someone so full of themselves that they won't concede defeat

and are delusional, such as Haley, who would vote for a delusional person, while 80 million Americans voted for Joe Biden. I don't get more delusional in his. So I don't think Nikki Hale is delusional. It's a politician. It's what politicians do. I don't think he's delusional.

Ed, not sure what Haley should do, but I know what Trump should do. Start acting presidential and gracious. All right. All right for that. But remember, Trump's supporters want him to be feisty. I think he can do both. Joe Milligan, Gellion, Ohio.

I respectfully disagree with you regarding razor wire removal in Texas, O'Reilly. When the federal government refuses to enforce immigration law, does not Governor Abbott have a duty to do everything you tend to protect the citizens of Texas? He can't violate the Constitution. The governor of Texas cannot do that. that. And the border and enforcement of it is solely the responsibility of federal government. It's what Biden's doing is so wrong, and I understand why the governor in Texas doing what he's doing, but you got to obey the Constitution. Well, you don't have a country.

Aaron McGillicuddy, Hulton, Maine. A bill, I was surprised when you mentioned Holtz, tonight on the Nostman News, we will be put on the map April 8th, when thousands show up for the total solar eclipse. We'd love to see you here. I'd love to get up there for that. I won't be able to because of, you know where I'm going to be April 8th? Malta. I'm going to be in Malta on April 8th. I'll tell you as it gets closer, but anyway, we love Maine.

Bryce Pavlish, Henderson, North Carolina. Enjoying killing the witch is very interesting. I read mostly historical books, so keep them coming. I find this book particularly thought provoking. Yeah, that's why we wrote it. You know, you want the witch hunt, it's back here in America. Okay, all the killing books bundled together are yours for a very fair price on bill o'Reilly.com. in our store there they all are

and uh... we will have a new book to announce on monday brand new book out early september it's one of the hardest books that i've ever written it's a tough tough not quite finished it yet but zeroing in

but it we i don't want to over hype monday here on the notice of the news we'll tell you all about it uh... where the day to not be Bumptious, B-U-M-P-T-I-O-U-S, bumptious. All right, back with a final thought about what to do when you get upset. Okay, final thought of the day we all get upset and, well, there may be a few exceptions. People who just don't have any emotion, you know, you don't, but most people, okay.

And there's nothing wrong with that, particularly if it's righteous. Somebody offends you, does something mean to you, does something wrong in your presence, whatever. you know it's natural but there's a way to do it and I have spent some time in Asia all right you can't call it the Orient anymore I don't know why you can't call if anybody knows why you can't call it the Orient anymore please let me know bill at Bill O'Reilly.com bill at bill o'Reilly.com name in town of course but orientals the Orient no the woke people No, you can't do that. You're a racist. Okay. So I've spent some time in Asia. And the societies

over there, obviously, are different than they are in the West. So Asians don't like to show emotion. They're stoic. They're passive in the face of personal interactions. Okay. And some of that's bad. You know, you know, some of that, you don't, you want people to be kind of out front. But some of it is good. So my rule now, and I sometimes don't obey my own rule, is I wait 48 hours, two days. If it's a serious situation that has gotten my attention emotionally, I wait 48 hours. Because I'm Irish, Irish people have a tendency to, boom, last. right out, right? And I've done that my whole life. I'm a good lasher out. But it has not

helped me. So I rethinking it. So I try to wait 48 hours before I respond to anything emotionally that I feel is wrong. Now, if it's crazy stuff, you've got to respond right then. So if it's a little kid jumping up and down, screaming and yelling, hitting himself in the head with a plate, but if it's an insult, a slight, a controversy, 48 hours will give you perspective, give you time to think about the most effective way to do it.

Now, a lot of people don't want to do that. They like the emotional displays. They like getting all crazy. You know them. You know them. They love it. The more emotional display, the better. It's fun, it's lively, whatever it may be.

But if you really want to solve problems and you really want to handle yourself in a way that's most effective, adopt the Asian outlook. Step back, noted, don't let it go. I mean, particularly if it's serious, if it's not serious, then you can. But if it's serious, somebody insults you, somebody's doing something terrible. don't let it go, but give yourself time to formulate a strategy. That is the final thought of the day. So we got a Sunday column about President Biden and all the people who are becoming addicted to narcotics and dying. Where do you see the stats that I'm going to present on Sunday?

Horrifying. Do you know Biden care? No. Not at all. You never hear him to talk about it, ever. Doesn't care. And then we'll get into why he doesn't care. So that's something. We're going to tell you about the new book on Monday. And then next week, our big strong lineup as the best election coverage in the country continues. Thank you for watching. NoSpin News. I'm Bill O'Reilly. Have a great weekend. We'll see on Monday.
