Now, I am so busy, I'm delirious. I'm not whining. It's good that you're busy, I think. I think it's good for the mental acuity, it's good for economics when you're busy. But boy, oh boy. And, you know, I'm not an internet guy. who knows I'm a kind of Luddite guy. I don't really understand or care about all this cyberspace stuff. But we are now, I believe, the most successful internet news service

in the world. In the world. And it's just been stunning for me to watch this whole thing just go boom. And it's thanks to you, of course. You guys weren't watching. We wouldn't be so successful. And now we have millions of people sampling Bill O'Reilly.com on the first TV on and on and on and on and anyway comes with that a tremendous amount of stuff that I have to do. And, you know, I'm up at 6.30 in a morning. And by 10.30 I go, I need a nap. And I took one today. So now I'm sharp. And here we go. Let's go over the state of the legal challenges by the Trump administration to the election outcome. The most important one and the only one that could stall the inauguration of Joe Biden

is in Pennsylvania, where the Trump administration has filed with the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court. They want to stay of the vote until the ballots filed after Election Day, November 9th, November 3rd, I should say, after election day, are thrown out. Now, that's not likely to happen in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, so they'll be appealed up into the Supreme Court. I don't know if the court's going to take it or not. It depends on the wording, because Trump administration basically said, look, the authorities in Pennsylvania illegally violated their own law, and you, the federal government, can have to stop it. Okay, so that is in play, and that's really, in my opinion, humble opinion, the only one that could put the brakes on.

There's another lawsuit in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in Allegheny and Philadelphia, Allegheny County, that observers were not allowed to watch the vote count. And I think that's true in some cases, but does it rise? No. Again, in my opinion, this is all my opinion. Now, in Michigan, where the vote is a little bit more, see, it's about 45,000 in Pennsylvania, it's about 150,000 in Michigan. The Trump administration is suing Wayne County, saying they violated all kinds of laws, and the status is pending. The suit is in the U.S. District Court, so it's higher than the suit in Pennsylvania. problem with all of this is if the Supreme Court ultimately decides to put a stay on the election, there'll be violence in this country. You know there will be. All right. So what we see

in Portland, what we've seen in Seattle, Minneapolis, Kenosha, Wisconsin, you can see it everywhere. Big violence. So the court knows that. And authorities know that. And authorities know that. And therefore, that is a factor in these rulings. Maybe it shouldn't be. Certainly the Constitution does not say, well, if you're afraid there's going to be violence, you shouldn't rule the proper way. Constitution does not say that. The law is the law.

But it better be pretty darn big. And because you've got to take into account the psychology of the Supreme Court justices. Now, three of them are never going to. a vote to stop the election. Those are the liberal justices. But the other six could. I don't believe Roberts would. So that's four that won't. And I don't know about Amy Coney Barrett. I mean, she's never been tested. So all of this is speculation, but what isn't speculation is that the two lawsuits that are very serious, one of Michigan and one in Pennsylvania, are winding their way up. Now, as you know, in early December, the states will certify the vote. Once that

happens, that's it. Once the certification happens, the feds are not going to intervene. So, we have about three weeks. We, I mean, the United States of America. So that's where we are. But the violence factor is real. It's real. And it's terrible. It depresses me to think about it, that we can live in a country where violence can affect what's right. But I think if the Trump administration comes up with something massive, and the only thing that could really be that is if the Georgia recount vote tomorrow night, midnight, Wednesday, flips it to Donald Trump.

Then we have a not whole new ball game, but extra innings. Okay, so let's move ahead. Donald Trump himself realizes it's a long shot that he keeps his job. He knows. And he's not going to do anything crazy because he knows he has another shot at this. four years from now. I don't know whether he get the nomination. I don't know whether he wants it.

But if he does want it, he's got 73 million votes the last time. So, he's got to take that into account. The only president of the United States who was ever elected twice non-consecutive terms was our old pal Grover Cleveland.

Throw him up there. There he is. Former mayor of Buffalo. New York, former governor of New York. Now, Grover, in 1884, beat James Blaine. Wow, James Blaine. And he became president. In 1888, Grover lost to Benjamin Harrison, although he beat Harrison in the popular vote. Harrison had more electoral votes. And then Grover was so teed off a la Donald Trump, there's Benjamin Harris, another exciting guy. But Grover is so teed off because he won a popular vote.

but he lost the electoral vote. He came back in 1892, and he beat Harrison. And he's the only president in Grover Cleveland in history that won three popular votes consecutively. He came back, and unfortunately for President Cleveland, there was a massive economic collapse in his last term, second term, and how, you know, they couldn't get rid of him fast enough.

So could Donald Trump do it? Yes, he could. yes he could no doubt in my mind I'm not going to say it's a lock because a lot of things are going to happen in three years when I say three years instead of four because that's when you have to start

a lot of things could happen all right the economy goes down Trump's position goes up if the economy stays vibrant no more COVID I think COVID's going to be gone as they told you yesterday by the summer we're going to do some COVID reporting tonight all right

but there are Republicans who want to go who would compete against Donald Trump and, you know, the party itself they're divided inside. Not the voters. Republican voters like them. But the party inside

but now in order to run again three years from now, Donald Trump has to say visible. And the only way to do that in the United States of America is to go on television. That's it. Okay. No other way. So I expect Donald Trump to go on television. I do. Now, how that unfolds,

I don't know. I will know, but I don't know now. Trump himself doesn't really have a preference. He's listening. He's listening. But he doesn't have his mind made up on anything. It's all speculation. But if Donald Trump signs on with a television news operation, and I think it would be a new one, as I said, I don't think he's going to go to the ones that are on now, he would do damage to the establishment TV operations, which are on the skids anyway. If you read my column on billowrally.com, I lay that out. So Donald Trump would succeed. He would bring a lot of people into watch it. But does Trump want to do five debts a week? No, he doesn't. All right? So it'd have to be a really well-thought-out.

Here's Donald Trump. He's on this operation. This is what he's going to do. But he has to do it. He can't just go down to Florida for three years and play golf and run his real estate empire. Can't. He's got to stay involved. And he wants to. He loves you. Spotlight. You know that. Everybody knows that.

So I expect, may I summer? By summer 2021, you're going to see something? But I could be wrong. I'm just guessing now. And finally, what I told you yesterday is absolutely imperative for Donald Trump's future. He's got to do analytics of this vote. We've got to hire an analytics company. hired a guy's at MIT or Cal Poly or somebody, come on in and analyze the odds of Philadelphia and Pennsylvania overturning a 600,000-vote lead. What are the odds of that? You need analytics. You need math. It's 2 percent or 10 percent or 20 percent. And you need it in five places. I don't want to be repetitive, but I'll just go over them. Fulton County, Georgia, Detroit, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Clark County, Vegas.

You got to do the analytics and then present that to the American people. Look at this. There's a 3% chance of this happening or whatever it may be. So they should be on that now. I don't even think they thought about it. And if they do that and Trump then steps aside and says, look, I'm going to step aside because I don't want violence in this country. I love my country.

I'm going to step aside. Joe Biden's going to be president. But I know, I know that this was a fraudulent election, and here are the analytics to back it up. Very strong position. I don't know if any of this is going to happen. The final thing that Donald Trump has to do, and I don't know whether he's going to do it or not,

because he's got to campaign for the two Republican senatorial candidates in Georgia. He's got to get down in Georgia, hold a huge rally, and have them on stage. with him. He'd got to do that because the Republican Party needs to control the Senate. Now, the Georgians, the Republicans in Georgia love him, love Trump. And that would give those two Republican candidates a huge boost. Now, is Donald Trump going to do that? I don't know. But if he did it, it would help him, not just the Republican Party. It would owe him. The House of Representatives, by the way, I haven't told you this before, is 219 to the Democrats,

207, 207 for the Republicans, nine Republican pickups, and there are nine races not called, and I think they're going to pick up six out of those. That's like this. So Pelosi's power, way down. And in 2022, if the economy falters a little bit, Republicans are going to win the House. And if the nonsense continues from the progressive left, which it absolutely could, then Republicans would control the House and the Senate. And Biden will sit there.

What's Biden going to do for two years? And that again would enhance Donald Trump's power on a comeback basis. Now, COVID is hurting, of course, American business across the board. So it's an article in a Wall Street Journal today. It says 300 companies that receive more than $500 million in government loans during the crisis, all right, have gone bankrupt despite the loans. Okay, so, and this continues that the COVID has devastated American business. and perhaps the most high-profile business that has been really hammered is the National Football League. All right, you know, I mean, a lot of the stadiums have nobody in them, and then others have 90%, 10% fans can go, 90 can't, that kind of thing.

So I asked my pal, Jim Gray, who's got a brand-new book out, to give me a little analysis of the NFL because he does Monday Night Football on Westwood One. Gray's book is Talking to Goats, the moments you remember and stories you never heard. The problem with Gray's book is, I thought he meant real goats. So I've been running around Long Island trying to find some goats to research, but it isn't goats, real goats. It's greatest of all time. So Gray is a big shot. He knows like Tom Brady and these guys, and he writes about it. But anyway, let's get to the National Football League.

Gray, have they been hurt by this COVID thing? Bill, this is quite an introduction. I'm sorry you didn't find any ghosts, but they've been hurt very, very badly, and the revenues obviously are way down when you can't have people in the stadiums, and it depends upon your municipalities, though, where you can and can't go. Some cities, they're letting in, you know, as few as 500 and 1,000 fans, other places, it's up to 7,500, California, New York, and so forth. Washington, there are nobody in the stadium.

So that's just a huge, huge revenue hit. And obviously they have salary caps and have to pay players. But the bulk of their money comes from television. So they're still collecting those billions of dollars. But obviously, and this has been devastating to the NBA, lost billions of dollars by playing down in the bubble in Orlando. And they're going to start a new season, December 22nd. And again, fans are not going to be permitted into these stadiums, obviously, with the COVID ravaging the country and the numbers going up. You can't have people congregating inside in a stadium and then asking them and pay for a ticket and not being sure that, you know, there's safety precautions and protocols in place.

So if the NBA has to go through in another entire season, first of all, with all the travel, who knows if they'll get through the season being outside of a bubble. And if they do, and they got to go into it and go through the finals, if they can't have revenues next season from fans coming to stadiums, there's going to be a tremendous amount of teams in both the NBA and the NHL. that are going to be in peril, that may not be able to operate. You take a look at what went on with baseball as well. Those teams are going to be in financial distress and trouble. It's a big problem. All right, because they still have to pay the salaries that the contracts were signed before COVID, and they still got to pay all the overhead of the stadiums and things like that.

Yet their revenue, I mean, obviously the TV revenue, from what I understand, that's split evenly among the football and basketball teams, the revenue and TV revenue. Is that right? Well, the national revenue is. The local revenues are much, much different for baseball and for basketball. You've got teams like the Lakers and the Dodgers literally collecting hundreds of millions of dollars and then you have teams in Milwaukee and Miami and so forth that are collecting very small, small portions, you know, much, much different disparity.

But in the National Football League, everybody, all 32 teams share all of the television revenue equally so it's it's an easier equation for them right right but you know what you got in these other sports are getting clobbered yeah when you got 70 000 people buying 10 dollar beers and hot dogs and paying 20 bucks to park i mean that's billions of dollars all right let's let's get to your book so one of the reasons as you know i know a lot about sports um and at one time when i was younger i was thinking about going into sports casting until don shula yelled at me this is a true story. So I'm teaching high school in Opelaca, Florida, Pace High School, and right next door, the Miami Dolphins, undefeated that year, were training at St. Thomas Aquinas College.

And me and another teacher used to sneak in to the press conferences, and I would ask a question. And I asked a question, and Chula thought I was stupid, and looked at me, and I was all of 21, and said, that's a stupid question. That was the end of my sports career. But one of the reasons I didn't go into sports broadcasting is because it's very difficult to really honestly report on athletes when you're so close to them. I can call Washington people pinheads, but I don't see them hardly at all. Guys covering the teams, guys like you have to interview these people, you see them all the time. So there's a portion in your book that I found unbelievably compelling where you interviewed Pete Rose during a Hall of Fame game or something.

Pick that story up. Well, it was Game 2 of the World Series in 1999. The Braves were at home playing the New York Yankees, and it was the all-century team that had been named by a credit card company, and baseball had given up control, and they allowed the fans to vote. The fans voted Pete Rose back onto the field for the first time in 10 years after he had signed away his banishment,

for gambling on baseball. So obviously it was a huge ceremony. Ted Williams, Sandy Colfax, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, everybody was there, and Pete Rose was allowed to participate as being the all-time hit king. So at NBC, we did the interview with Pete right after the ceremony, and I asked him about would he like to make some sort of an admission now, that the American public was very forgiving, and would he like to take this opportunity to come clean of something that he had been in denial? of for 10 years and basically had lied to the public about so that he could come maybe get back into the good graces of baseball and have a job and get into the Hall of Fame. Well, he didn't want to admit it then. We're talking about betting on games so people know. You know,

Rose bet on baseball games when he was the manager of the Red. So you asked him, hey, do you want to apologize to the folks now and get this behind you? He didn't want to do that and what happened to you well it got contentious and uh it's it's spiraled out of control and then you know the fans got very upset because they felt it was an intrusion on the ceremony and that it was the wrong time and the wrong place uh but the questions uh had to be asked of p at that time and so everybody got upset the yankees and chad curtis boycotted me the next night. He wouldn't answer a question about the game-winning home run. The fans got very upset not only in Ohio and Kentucky, but across the country. And, you know, there was just a ton of

vitriol and a lot of folks very upset with me, you know, making all kinds of threats and calling in voicemails and sending in letters. And it just spiraled to the point where, you know, got very difficult and the repercussions were not only felt by pete but also felt by me as to uh having asked him those questions and uh this was pre-internet too so there was no social media and thank god thank god you'll probably be in czechoslovakia in the czech republic now but if you read if you read gray's book he gets very specific about who did what to him. And it's one of the nastiest things I've ever seen happened to a journalist. But very unusual character came not to your rescue so much, but gave you solace. Who was that?

Well, there were there were quite a few and they were my friends. First of all, Dick Ebersaw was the model of how to treat an employee under distress. Yeah, he's the NBC guy. But I'm talking about a real big name who you would not expect to knock on your door late at night to help you. Who was that? The boss. The boss and his name is George Steinbrenner. And he came to my room when we got back to Yankee Stadium for game three. And it was immediately after Chad Curtis blew me off after the game winning home run. It was 1.30 in the morning and I had protection outside my door. New York City policeman and an FBI guy had helped me at the stadium and one of them was still outside. So I thought it was that guy who wanted to come inside and maybe use the restroom or order something to eat. So I opened the door in my shorts and it was George Steinbrenner standing next to the security guard and he was in his coat and tie and it just come back from the stadium. And he said, can I come in? And there I was, you know, no shirt on and so forth. And I said, sure, George, come on in. And he said, look, I just want to say this. I'm fine with that interview.

That interview was no problem. That's first of all. Second of all, the way you were treated at Yankee Stadium tonight does not represent the way that the organization feels, certainly doesn't represent the way that I feel, and nothing like that will ever happen to you again while I own this team. He then stuck out his hand.

Let me stop you. That, I was stunned. I know the Steinbrenner family for many years. I know how kind they are. I know or knew the late George Steinbrenner. I'm so happy you put that in, but I didn't know any of that. And when I'm reading your book, I'm going, I don't even know any of that. One last question real quick.

Brady, how old is Brady 42? Is he 42? 43. He's 43. So I saw him throw a 50-yard dart. As you know, I'm a former quarterback. 43-year-old guy throws a 50-yard rope last week. So what is the guy eaten?

I mean, I know he's a maniac workout guy, but I've never seen anything like that. And you're one of his best friends. He's eating avocado ice cream. Is that right, avocado ice cream? I got to get some. And he's into pliability, and he's into nutrition and how to decrease inflammation.

And Tom and his training coach and great guy that works with him every day. Alex Guerrero, he has him on this program that is enabling him to be able to continue at this high level, and it's phenomenal. I think he's a, what is it, Cybertron or a cyborg guy? Anyway, Gray, you should be eating that ice cream. I'm getting it.

The book is Talking to Goats, not the Real Goats, the greatest of all time. Jim, I enjoyed the book. Jim, thanks for helping us out tonight. Bill, thank you for having me on. Great to see you. I appreciate it. Cheers. So Steve Hasser writes, O'Reilly, you're making excuses. You're saying that our election system can be blackmailed by threats of violence from the left.

Why do you think we 74 million will find that acceptable? I'm not finding anything acceptable. And I'm not saying anything. I'm reporting, Steve. I'm reporting. All right. As I told you Monday, it's my job to tell you the truth. And I have.

So what Steve is referring to, as I said, in order for the election to be stayed or overturned by the Supreme Court, you would have to have a very compelling amount of evidence that is visible to everyone. Can't be a theory, can't be an opinion, can't be something like some observers were denied in Philadelphia. It's got to rise to a very high level. Why? Because the Supreme Court justices are human beings. They know if they stay the election, if they turn it around and President Trump turns out to be the winner, there'll be violence in this country, violence on the streets. that will happen, and the Supreme Court justices know it. Therefore, to make that kind of a judgment, you would have to have incontrovertible proof that every American could see.

I discussed this today with Sean Hannity, who is running down the litany of fraud accusations, many of which are true. I don't believe there was an honest count done in Philadelphia or Detroit or Milwaukee or Clark County, Las Vegas. I don't believe there was an honest count done. I don't believe there was an honest count done in Fulton County. That's Atlanta, Georgia. Okay?

I could be wrong, but the evidence says there were illegalities, irregularities that took place. but do they rise to the level of overturning an election? That's what the Supreme Court, the only body, the only one who could stop this train. And the train has to be stopped by December 7th when the votes are certified. So getting back to Steve, Steve is mad at me for reporting that. he thinks I'm advocating for the Supreme Court justices. He thinks that I'm condoning if they voted against staying the election. And I'm not, I'm not doing any of that.

I'm bringing you information that's real. Think back how many people told you there was going to be a Trump landslide. Think about it. When you're listening to the radio or watching television, how many people came on and told you, Trump's going to win, he didn't win big. all right i didn't say that i reported it was going to be very close i also reported whoever wins pennsylvania becomes the next president both of those things happened all right i went against many on the right who were convinced there would be a landslide for donald trump now we're in a

position where most republicans and i'll give you the numbers in a moment believe that the election was fixed for the Democrats in key places. I'm not trying to dissuade you from that. As I just said, I believe it was fixed. If I were on the Supreme Court, would I vote to stay the election? I'd have to see the evidence in Pennsylvania. How many votes are involved that came in after Election Day? what the final tally was.

I'd have to evaluate all that. I can tell you with certainty there are four Supreme Court justices right now without seeing any evidence who would vote against overturning the election or stopping the election. Four, Roberts, would not vote under any circumstances to overturn this election and the three liberal justices. So there you have four already. that no matter what happens, aren't going to do it for whatever reasons, and that's on them.

So then you have five who may consider stopping the election. But if one out of that five says no, Biden's president. So I'm giving you the odds. Let's get specific. Georgia recant. It ends tonight at midnight, all right? But so far, Donald Trump has picked up, as far as we know, 1,227 votes that were uncounted in the first go-around. There is a 12,500 vote difference in favor of Biden.

By midnight tonight, are we going to see 12,500 votes go to Trump? And the answer is no. That's not going to happen. It's too many. Now, Georgia is run by a Republican governor, Kemp. Was there fraud? Yeah. Atlanta is Atlanta.

Okay? It's not a reliable precinct. But is it going to be overturned? No. So the 16 electoral votes that Joe Biden got in Georgia will stay in his camp. Okay. Let's go to Pennsylvania. Yesterday, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania threw out the observers were kept too far away lawsuit.

They threw it out, okay? Five to two. That's the system. The quote was, the majority opinion from the court affirms that campaign observers had been given adequate access to counting areas throughout the election. Is that true? I don't think so. but that's my opinion. All right, so the Pennsylvania Supreme Court said

not going to do anything about it. Now, can you appeal to the federal level? Sure, you can. But the one thing that does remain pending in Pennsylvania is how many votes, mail-in votes that came in after election day, should be counted. The law says none, I believe. And that's the one that could wind up

in the Supreme Court, the federal Supreme Court. So I don't believe Pennsylvania judges are going to say our state screwed up. I don't believe any state judges are going to do that. You've got to go to the feds. All right, here are the stats. Politico left-wing website. They have a polling place, a polling outfit hired, morning consult, way off on the presidential election. I told you about them in the past, unreliable, totally.

So they take a poll, 1994 registered voters, but Democrats outnumber Republicans by 8%, so what do you think you're going to get? And the question was, do you believe that Donald Trump should concede the election? 46%. That's pretty low, I thought it would be more. Say yes. All right. Democrats, 72% of Democrats say you should concede. Republicans, only 17% say he should concede.

And you know what I say? He shouldn't concede. I wouldn't concede if I were President Trump ever. How about that? Because I think that there was wrongdoing in the election. Now, does that mean I wouldn't cooperate with Biden coming in? That I wouldn't be polite. That I wouldn't give him access.

No. I would. Once the votes are certified, then you do what everybody else has always done. But what I concede, no, not the way it stands now. Reuters poll, 68% of Republicans say the election was rigged. 68% think it was rigged. That's Republicans. And there were a few Democrats and independents that think it's rigged too.

Now, no matter what happens, and the heavy odds are, as I told Sean Hannity, I hope you listen to that, by the way, that Joe Biden will be the next person. That's not going to change the minds of the people who think it was rigged. So what should happen is as soon as the Senate comes back in the session in January, our pal Mitch McConnell should have a bill already written called the Fair Election Bill. And on the Fair Election Bill, it should have standards that all states have to meet. in the next presidential election in 2024. Here's what you have to do, states.

Now, states can still oversee, as the Constitution allows, but there should be standards. As I said, if California decides to drop the voting age to eight, which they could do in Sacramento, this fed's got to, you know, no. Okay? Now, the reason I want McConnell to do that in the Senate is because all the Republican senators

would vote for that bill, I believe. We'll see how many Democrats would vote for it, the fair election bill. Because in my opinion, there are Democrats that don't want fair elections. And I could be wrong on that, but I don't think I am. Let's get to the mail, Georgia, on the message board at Bill O'Reilly.com.

I'm sick in thinking that our Supreme Court would be bullied by Antifa B.L.L.L. and other criminals to select our next president. If that's the case, they don't deserve to be justices. Again, I dealt with this, Georgia. I hope you watch the whole program. At top, it's not a matter of being bullied. It's a matter of human nature.

There is a cause and effect to every ruling the Supreme Court makes. They know they overturned their election or even state. It's going to be violence. That doesn't mean they won't do the right thing. It just makes it very hard. John, you can never give in the bullies who wants to live their life being intimidated. Supreme Court must follow the law and the Constitution. I agree with you 100%, John.

Linda, the world changes so much in just a week, there's no way we should be talking about Donald Trump running in 2024. Well, a lot of people want to know what he's going to do, and I have to analyze it on that basis. Juan Garza, Perlin, Texas, elections, consequences, and the people have spoken. for the new government in our country. Does that mean the folks are okay with the Green New Deal, increasing taxes and more regulation and open borders? Some of them are. One, some of them are.

Only 24% say they're liberal in the exit polling. Some of them say, hey, we want that. Deb Granath, Flemington, New Jersey. Can you address what do the good citizens of this country do now? Nothing. You wait and you watch. and you continue to vote for the people that you feel are looking out for you in the country.

You're loyal, patriotic Americans. That's what you do. The system is the system. Sometimes it's not fair. We'll try to improve it. I'm going to be here to guide you through this. I don't think there's going to be madness. I think that Biden and the Republican Senate

are not going to give in to the craziness. But if they do, we'll come on. with a strategy. John, concierge member, that means that John can email me any time with any question and I answer it privately to him. That's concierge membership on bill o'Reilly.com. Bill, thanks for bringing up COVID in China. It's unfathomal that a year after the Chinese government still avoids any kind of scrutiny pertaining to the virus. What can we do? It's the second most powerful country in the world next to us. The world can't do anything. Dr. Michael McAulaj, Chattanooga, Tennessee, do you think the USA or other countries require

proof of COVID vaccine for entry into their country? Yes. If you want to travel abroad, you're going to have to have a card that says you get vaccinated. I believe that will happen. Lynn Gaylor, Sarasota, Florida. Bill, I'd like to hear a comment on how you are doing kind things by sending small gifts to people this holiday season that you normally wouldn't. Maybe you should send Mr. Biden a stand-up for your country mat. Let me see that, Matt.

Throw that mat up there for Lynn. Now, we're almost out of these. We're almost out of the We Say Merry Christmas mats. We're almost out of the stand-up for your country mats. You want them? You got to order today. I will try to replenish the stand-up for your countries. I can't do the Christmases.

I don't think in time. But boy, they just flew out of here. They're great items. We also have the theme, stand up for your country, on hats. We have other colors on the hats, on mugs. I love these mugs. Every day, we have white and blue, navy blue. Fabulous.

And what Lynn was referring to is that I am sending gifts like these. Merry Christmas, America. America. All right. Merry Christmas America. There it is. Peaking out to folks just, and starting now around Thanksgiving, just to say, look, COVID is really cutting into all the celebrations. We understand that. But I'm thinking about you. Man, that's a good thing to do. And this is really inexpensive. And, you know, the best gift of all to those who like history is killing crazy. You know, after 10 weeks, still on the bestseller list, you know, a mammoth success, thank you. And we have all kinds of deals in the bill o'Reilly.com store. Word of the day when writing to us not the poll truon, P-O-L-T-R-O-N. I called an urchin a poll tru in the other day.

Total confusion. Didn't know whether I was complimenting or criticizing. Don't be a pull-truin. Final thought in a moment. Okay, so Thanksgiving. is going to be different. I had to cut down my celebration. I made me sad. I wanted to host some people that I can't host because of COVID. And Christmas is going to be the same thing, smaller, small and small. But here's a plan. So now I'm going to do extra kindness. Extra kindness

from O'Reilly to all my friends and family. And I'm going to start, I'm going to start before Thanksgiving. So I'm giving away a whole bunch of these, stand up for your country, because everybody who likes me stands up for their country. All right? So I'm going to give away all the stand-up for your country stuff, which is easy for me to do because I own it. But I'm going to start to give people little gifts, all right? This is great, and this isn't political. It's stand-up for your country. All right.

We're tired of our country being insulted. I am. Then I'm going to give them the Merry Christmas America. These are great. I came up at these, by the way. I thought these up. But most of all, I'm going to spread the word that concierge membership where you have direct access to me on bill o'Reilly.com, it's a fabulous gift. And you get free books, premium membership.

I'm giving those away. I'm giving them away. All right. And it makes people happy. And it says, okay, maybe we can't be together because of COVID, but I'm thinking of you. I'm thinking of you. So get that list, all right? And buy from us.

Don't go to the mall? I mean, that's insane. You don't want to go to the mall? Don't do that. That's cheap stuff anymore. Most of it's made in China. It's all made in the USA here. I give gifts that matter. And finally, this is the greatest gift. This is right here, killing crazy horse. They're going to love, if you have people who like history, want to know about their country, this book is fantastic. And you know it is. It's got 93% excellent rating on Amazon. Those are the folks. So, you know, all of that, you become a premium member or concierge member. You get this.

free. And we did that, so you're not going to put out a lot of money. But that's what we're going to have to do this holiday season. We're going to have to think about people who matter to us, start early, little gifts, happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy Onyka, whatever it may be, okay? And so maybe people who you wouldn't ordinarily give a gift down, you give a little gift, a little Christmas ornament or something, a little hat. You've got to make it up. This COVID is horrible. It's going to be over. season let's be very generous see you tomorrow
