Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly.com, Premier Members, Welcome to the No Spin News Monday, April 20, 2020. Fight for your freedom and for your health. Another kick-but show. Is that too blunt? Pen paper, here we go. So it's money versus health. That's where we are in America and all over the world.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Money, opening up, the economies versus health, the threat of the virus. Very, very difficult, extremely so. The truth is the American economy has to reopen and workers have to go back to work. Has to happen. And it has to happen within the next three weeks or so by mid-med. reason is people are running out of cash. If you don't have any cash, you can't buy food. If you can't buy food, civil unrest follows. That's what's happening. Now I'll give you the backup for it. So in the United States, most areas of the country are not under siege by the
Starting point is 00:01:20 virus. New York, where I am right now, is half the cases. New York is a special circumstance. It cannot open up the way Wyoming can. North Dakota, Idaho, 29 states are opening up this week to some extent. New York cannot do that. There's simply too many sick people here. Contagion is too dangerous here. New Orleans, Detroit, Chicago, Cook County, also in that category. Can't open it. Got to stagger the openings. But most Americans don't live in those places. Most Americans have to go back to work in Los Angeles. 45% of the people who live in the city of L.A. are working. 55% are not. They can't sustain it.
Starting point is 00:02:09 No matter how much relief package or unemployment or you can't sustain it. You've got to go back to work. The problem is that the average savings for a worker is $3,000 in America. Now, if you have kids a little bit more, but the average single worker, you've got three grand in the bank. That's going to run out in three weeks, four weeks, if you're paying rent, mortgage. So we are not a country that saves for a rainy day. The rainy day is here.
Starting point is 00:02:47 We didn't save. People are running out of money. In Germany, they opened it up today. Same thing. It's got 83 million people. people in Germany, all right? You got 328 million people here. Eighty-three million people in Germany. None of them had any money because the government takes all the money away, up to 70% taxation in Germany, 70, 7-0, plus a 19% VAT tax, value-added tax. I told you this,
Starting point is 00:03:16 when I came back from Germany 10 months ago, I gave you a report. They don't have any money. government gives you housing you know supplement on housing they give you retirement they give you health care they give you education they give you pre-k they give you everything in return you give them all your money but in the pandemic what's the government going to do they treat you when you get sick but they locked it all down so the people in munich and leipzig and hamburg and berlin now that 10% of Germans get food from the government about the same here but what about all the other people so they have to go back to work have to if you have a population that gets desperate and food is priority number one they can't buy food can be violence
Starting point is 00:04:21 You're already seeing violence in Cape Town, South Africa. Yeah, I don't know what's going on down there. I'm going to check it out. But Merkel and Trump, no. Now, Merkel's out of there. Okay, she doesn't have a future in politics. But Trump knows his reelection. Hinges on getting its country back to work.
Starting point is 00:04:44 You are listening to a free excerpt from Bill O'Reilly.com's no-spin news broadcast, where you can actually see me. We'll be right back after this message. 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. Thoreau, the only dealer I trust, American Hartford gold.
Starting point is 00:05:16 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.

Please call 866-326-55-75-76 or text bill to 99-88-99.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Again, that's 866-3-2-6-5576-5-76 or text bill to 9988-99. So yesterday I had an opportunity, as I wrote in the message of the day, to watch the White House presser on the virus on Sunday. So it lasted, I think, seven hours and 45 minutes. I mean, it never ends. And unfortunately, the same questions are asked over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. And Donald Trump says the same thing 15 times. So to me, I get it the first, maybe two times. But I watched it because I wanted to see the whole dynamic, not because I because I needed the information. I didn't. I had it. And one thing struck out. A CBS News correspondent. Now, she's not the A correspondent, so weekend was really, really nasty. Roll the tape.
Starting point is 00:06:56 That you should have warned them the virus was spreading like wildfire through the month of February instead of holding rallies with thousands of people. Why did you wait so long to warn them? Who you would? And why did you not have social distancing until March 16th? You should have? She's telling the president of the United States what he should have done instead of having rallies. That's how what a journalist does. I've interviewed five presidents. And I gave Barack Obama and George W. Bush and Donald Trump, all three of them, the toughest interviews they've ever gotten. Google them. They never had tougher interviews than what I did. But I wasn't disrespectful like that woman. Now, if CBS News had any standards, which it does not,
Starting point is 00:07:48 they send her to a re-education camp. This is how you ask the question. It's not that the question was offensive. It wasn't. You can say, Mr. President, some believe that you were late in warning the nation about the pandemic and spent some time in February and March at rallies where people could have gotten the contagion. Do you have any thoughts on that? That's how you asked a question. Not you should have. I thought if Trump was pretty restrained, if it had been me, I would have addressed her down. Back with the final thought after this. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are
Starting point is 00:08:40 shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on the topics the mainstream media won't. So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch or getting ready for the drive home, new episodes of the Sean Spicer Show podcast drop at 2 p.m. East Coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. All right. So final thought of the day is everybody's getting hurt on the virus. And there are literally hundreds of thousands of people needing food. Roll tape on this. We have food lines all over the place now in America. Because as I said at the top, you know, have any cash. So food banks, churches, people can't go to church, can't put money in the
Starting point is 00:09:33 collection. All of these people need money. If you are looking, if you are looking to donate money, it doesn't have to be much. Think about it. There's a food bank in your area. There's a harvest thing on Long Island here. And, you know, your church, your pastor needs your help. Also, American vets. So there's an organization, Coda Vets.
Starting point is 00:10:01 And a lot of the vets, not a lot, but a good number. They come back from their military duty and they're lost, many different reasons. And they're, you know, serve their country, but they can't adjust back to civilian life. So code of vets helps them, and they need help in a pandemic. So just go to very simple, at code C-O-D-E of vets. That's their Twitter, at code of vets, and help them out if you can. The more generous you are in hard times, the more it will come back to you. You don't do it for that reason, but that's karma and it's true.
Starting point is 00:10:46 We'll see you tomorrow.
