upholing. You're listening to the no-spin News, Talking Points Edition. Well, the Jockey Boy memo is important this evening and released to the hostages in Gaza, and they never, of course, should have been taken, kidnapped. That's the best word, kidnapped in the first place. All right, so as you probably know, 20 living hostages were released by the Hamas terrorists today, and that is because of President Trump's. efforts. I think almost everybody understands that Joe Biden, and I'm not just picking on him,

and I don't think Barack Obama or even George W. Bush could have gotten these hostages out. But people fear Donald Trump. And Iran in particular, which funds and arms the Hamas terrorists, are very afraid of the president. So he's got leverage in there. And the Israeli, Israelis can't buck them because we're pretty much the only friend Israel has right now in the world. So Donald Trump did it. And I'm going to now do a timeline. October 7, 2003, 1,200 murdered, 1,200 Jews murdered, no reason. Hamas.

I write about it in the opening of confronting evil. I put you right in the town. All right. And 251 people were kidnapped by Hamas on that day. Then there was a negotiation. Now, I was a part of it, and I'm going to write about it in my last book, which will be out this time next year. I wasn't a major player in the first hostage release, but I was an expediter. I put people together.

All right. So on January 19th, this year, 2025, 33 hostages were released. You might remember that. But the terrorists held back. 46, 44, 20 living, 24 bodies. All right, since that time, the Trump administration had been trying to get them out. Very frustrating, extremely frustrating. At the same time, the Israeli government, was pounding Gaza, and a lot of civilians were killed.

Not Israel's fault in particular, it's what happens in war. Civilians are killed, and Hamas hides behind civilians. I'm not justifying, I'm not a military planner, I wasn't there, but I'm telling you, in every single war on this planet, innocent civilians. get killed. It's just the nature of it. It's horrible evil. So, finally, a deal was made. President Trump then got on a plane yesterday and flew to Israel where he said this. It was a very tough period of time. For so many families across this land, it has been years since you've known a single day of true peace, but now at last, not only for Israelis, but also for Palestinians and for many others, the long and painful nightmare is finally over.

And as the dust settles, the smoke fades, the debris is removed, and the ashes clean from the air, the day that breaks on a region transformed and a busy. beautiful and much brighter future appears suddenly within your reach. And nobody knows how that will play out, but you have to acknowledge history. And Donald Trump got this done. That's it. There's no but. Why? There's none of that speculative garbage. We do not do that. Those who do are dishonest. Nobody knows. So after speaking to the Israeli parliament, Donald Trump then got on Air Force One and went to Egypt. Roll the tape.

Sir, what will Egypt's role play in the peace process here? We played a very important role, and they had a very important role with Hamas. In fact, the general was right here was very instrumental because Hamas respects this country, and they respect the leadership of Egypt. So we had a, you played a very important role. I appreciate it very much. Thank you. Now, the important role is true.

But it's not just Egypt. Gutter, Saudi Arabia, the Arab Street, as they call it, we're all in President Trump's camp to tamp down Hamas. Two reasons. Iran, which is loathed by most Arabs, remember the Iranians are Persians, not Arabs. Okay, he's on the slide. It is diminishing in power because of America and Israel. And the Arabs want that to happen.

Number two, money. It is bad for business in the Middle East to have constant terror. and money has always talked. And as you know, the Gulf region is one of the most important energy centers on Earth. And the hoodies and all these other people disrupt business. So the Arab nations want these terrorists gone. And that's why they cooperated with the United States and Israel. Okay.

Donald Trump then after Charmelle Sheik, where he was in Egypt, comes back. So it's basically a round trip in less than 24 hours. Crazy. Middle East is seven hours ahead of East Coast time. But the president will be back tonight. And I don't know how a man does it, tell you the truth.

I think I do more than it, but he does. So it makes me look like I'm comatose. Anyway, here's an interesting couple of reactions. So I have been told by reliable sources, and I usually don't use anonymous sources, so I'm not vouching for this. But I'm just telling you what I've been told, that CNN talent, air talent, was ordered not to hammer Trump

on this situation. Order. Okay. So they were all ready to go, and the MS people, you know, they're out in the middle of nowhere. The view on ABC was also told to tone it down. But CNN, those orders went out. That's why you didn't see bashing there. So a couple of days ago, President Obama went on some kind of podcast or something. And, you know, didn't give Trump credit for bringing this hostage thing to a temporary close. Obama didn't do that. So one of Obama's best allies in the media is a woman named Abby Phillip on CNN. Roll it.

Honestly, it's not unfair to say if President Obama's going to write a whole post about a peace deal, maybe he should acknowledge the president that brokered it. Okay. But that was not organic, as they say, ordered. Now, the hate Trump press, what they do is deflect. You don't have a real lot of coverage over the weekend about this, and we'll play you some of the coverage that would take place. It was, all right, let's just move along.

Let's get by this. victory for Trump, we don't want to dwell on it. That's what the hate Trump press did, the networks and all that. There were, though, people who went out and tried to make Trump look bad even though he succeeded. Roll it. Donald Trump is often criticized for behaving like a bully on the world stage, but that is exactly what allowed him to get this deal done, how he was able to railroads.

to Railroad Benjamin Netanyahu into signing up to a deal that other American presidents could not and probably would not have been able to get him to agree to. Yeah, but you don't have to use the word bully because that's not what he is. All right, what Trump is is a strong man. And I write about that in my column on Sunday. If you didn't read the column on bill o'Reilly.com about how Trump is governing as opposed to Andrew Jackson, Teddy Rose. It's the same thing. It's not a bully. A bully comes in and kicks defenseless people in the mouth. Amos not defenseless lady. Get their killers, the murderers. Got it? Go back to

London and tell everybody. Ooh, dishonesty is staggering. All right, summing up. It's a big victory for Donald Trump. And I'm going to get into it a little bit more, but I want to get down to D.C. tomorrow and kind of talk to, I have a whole bunch of high-level meetings scheduled, and then I'll come back, but this links in to Putin and China, this Mast thing. And that's what I'm working on now. Okay. So just so you know, we're going to be extremely, exceedingly busy in D.C. But it's worth it. And that's a memo. of the No Spin News. Tonight we're going to lead off with the talking points on reaction to President Trump's historic success

by getting the Israelis and the Hamas people to stop killing each other for at least a little while. Hamas is killing their own now, of course. It's never going to end. I told you that yesterday. It's no magic wand, but 20 human beings are free. And I believe the bodies of the other hostages, four have already been released. I think the rest are coming. But President Trump did a good job here. And anybody who denies that is not being truthful. However, the progressives are not going to change their view of Mr. Trump.

they are going to continue to hate them. So how do they handle it? That's what we're going to report on tonight. And I'm going to run it down for you in a very methodical way. But you need to know there's vengeance in the air. Why? Why would there be vengeance in the air against President Trump? Because he's making the Trump haters look bad.

He's tearing apart the progressive movement. You heard nothing for Bernie Sanders. nothing from Elizabeth Warren. I don't think you heard from AOC either. They don't know what to do. They don't know what to do. But I know what they will do. And that is move on from this story as fast as they possibly can't.

And get right back into the Gestapo ICE agents. Comey is a victim, you know. Right back in, and that's going to happen with lightning speed. It's already happening in some of the more hysterical, progressive precincts. So I'm going to pick on this guy, John Legend, and I don't really want to, because he's not anyone of, I don't know, he doesn't have any sway over any of us. There's no power. He's an entertainer.

He's just saying John Legend. He's in the news a lot. He's a very, very ardent, progressive. But his mindset accurately reflects the progressive movement in the United States. So I'm going to use him the night as a demonstrator. All right. So you know about the Nobel Peace Prize? The Norwegians didn't want to give it to Trump.

That's all it was. Did Trump deserve it? Yes, of course. She deserved it. But the Norwegians are very, very liberal, and they didn't want to give it to them. Maybe if Ukraine, if there's some deal made, they'll have to give it to him next year. But they avoided it this year. And they shouldn't have.

That's not honest. But here's what John Legend said about that. Go. If Trump is able to actually earn the Peace Prize, it probably won't be enough that he's helped bring peace to the Middle East. Let's look at what else he would have to do. He'd have to stop sending Black Hawk helicopters to terrorize people while they sleep in their apartment buildings in Chicago. Yes, the so-called peace president whose ending wars around the world would also have to stop declaring war on the American people. Okay.

So what are you going to do? Mr. Legend's entitled to his opinion. I don't know why he does what he does. Certainly, I'm going to help his record sales. He's an extremist. I don't feel anybody's declared war on me or anybody I know. All right? I know a lot of liberal people.

I don't see any war. I don't think Black Hawk helicopters swooping down terrorizing people as they sleep in Chicago. I don't see any of that. Maybe I'm missing it. Maybe I'm just not skilled enough to absorb the information that John Lennon and his cohorts in the progressive movement have absorbed. Okay? I'm just not smart enough to get it. 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 stock. stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. And you can do this.

I usually ask potential criminals to have a seat, but now I'm asking you to join me. Chris Hansen, for my new series, have a seat with Chris Hansen. Guests each week are fascinating personalities who are grabbing headlines, making waves or changing our lives for the better. Have a seat with Chris Hansen available wherever you get your podcasts. But that, what he just said is what they believe. because people believe what they want to believe. And you're never going to convince them, ever in a million years. Okay, now, part of this subterfuge here, excuse me,

is that legend doesn't like Israel. You know, I always like to know who I'm featuring on the NoSpin News. So he doesn't like Israel at all. Roll a tape. No matter what political disagreements and political animus and anger we have at Hamas and the leadership in Gaza, those kids are innocent. Yes. And I don't believe in collective punishment. And I believe that their lives are just as valuable, just as valuable as Israeli lives or any other lives.

And so I want foreign policy to be conducted with that in mind. Okay, so according to Mr. Legend, if Hamas attacks our country, the United States, and kills 1,200 Americans, and I hope Mr. Legend would be spared, okay, we can't go after Hamas in Gaza. We couldn't use U.S. military power to avenge or punish the terrorists and, kill the 1,200 just as they did in Israel, because innocent children might be killed. And that's true. They might be killed. But you don't do anything? What do you do? John Legend doesn't know. The brutal truth is that Israel defeated Hamas and downgraded its leadership and created a lot of problems for that terror organization. But in the process, 50,000 civilians, that's my estimation,

were killed in that war. And whose fault is that? Well, legend would blame Israel. And the United States, because we support Israel. Now, he might blame Hamas, too. But he said, clearly, I don't believe in collectible. punishment. Well, what are you going to do? Then you just let them get away with it and they run back and hide behind their children and you don't take any action because you don't

believe in collective punishment. It's just dumb. And that is my big problem with the progressive movement. It's stupid. It has no solution to any problem. These are pie in the sky. People think that they're noble and that they have a higher moral ground than anybody else. Boy, oh boy. You imagine if Kamala Harris, because she is a progressive. President, you think those guys are hostages would have been released? Come on. Even Kamala's husband doesn't think so. All right, President Biden finally weighed in. I was waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting. And George W. Bush hasn't said anything. Bill Clinton did. Bill Clinton issued a very strong statement in favor of Donald Trump's actions. But Biden was late to the table because his crew had to get around. They had to write it. They had to debate it.

He had nothing to do with it. And here's what he says, quote, my administration worked relentlessly to bring hostages home to get released to Palestinian civilians and end the war. I commend President Trump and his team for their work to get his renewed ceasefire deal over the finish line. Now with the backing in the United States and the world, the Middle East is on a path to peace. Maybe. I don't believe it's on a path to peace, but I believe the situation is a lot better now

than it was. Now, what about Biden's administration? They did try somewhat, but failed, to get the hostage release. I was involved in that, and at the end, the very end, of Biden's presidency in December of last year, 24, there was movement, and there were hostages released. in January of 25. The Biden administration was part of that. But the big part of it was Trump coming in. And I'm not going to go through what my role was now, but I will down the road. So I know what's going on here. I didn't object to Biden's statement, by the way. I object to Biden's

presidency. It's a disaster for the world and for this country. But the statement was okay. finally, let's wrap this thing up. It's not going to change. The progressives hate Donald Trump. The liberal media, which is about 80% of it, is not going to change its posture unless something like CBS happens where company is sold. CBS was sold. New ownership. Disney, NBC, CNN, they're going to stay. the same, essentially. And that's a memo. You're listening to a special edition of the No Spin News. All right.

Talking points memo. Let's get to reality today. Is a Charlie Kirk Medal of Freedom ceremony yesterday. So I was there as a reporter. I told you I was going to be there. I was not a participant. Okay. The difference is the participants were sitting up front and they were there in an emotional capacity.

I was not. I was there in a reputorial capacity. I was in the back. And some very interesting things happened. We'll tell you about some of them at the end of the program. But I was reporting on what was taking place because it was so unique. Medal of Freedom is not given out very much. and this terrible assassination of Mr. Kirk

startled the whole country. And I think that President Trump is very compassionate. Paramount. Check out the big stars, big series, and blockbuster movies. Streaming on Paramount Plus. Cue the music. Like NCIS, Tony and Ziva. We'd like to make up her own rules.

To honor Mr. Kirk, even if you don't agree with him, okay, and I don't agree with everything that Charlie Kirk said. Nobody did. But to honor him on his birthday in front of his... wife and family members, and Trump had to come back from Charmau Sheik Egypt in a very strenuous

flight to do that. He could have put this off to Friday, but he wanted to do it on his birthday. I just thought that was noble. I mean, it's just me, I guess. We were in the Rose Guard. It's brand new. It's nice. Okay.

What I like was that all of presidential portraits are off. even the guys that Trump doesn't like on the side when you walk down to the Oval Office and I like it. I think that's a good honor for the country, good tradition. Okay, so the ceremony ran a little bit more than an hour and, you know, as Mr. Trump does, he loviated for a good time.

Here's one of the highlights. Go. As I said on the day that he was assassinated, Charlie Kirk was a martyr for truth. and for freedom, and from Socrates to think, and to St. Peter, from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King, those who change history the most, and he really did, have always risked their lives for causes. They were put on earth to defend.

He was put on earth to do exactly what he was doing. He didn't want to waste time. Okay. Um, Erica Kirk, the widow was extremely eloquent, woman is a gift. She's going to carry on Mr. Kirk's legacy and Turning Point USA is now being run by her. So her speech was very, very emotional, really. That never stopped me from telling him. I told him every single year. I said, baby, I love your birthday. I said, because it's the day that God knew the world couldn't go another day without you.

And so the rhythm of our usual birthday celebration for him was mint ice cream, mint chocolate chip ice cream. He only had it twice the year on his birthday and 4th of July. And then after that, it was back to work as usual. But last year, his one birthday wish was to see the Oregon Ducks play the Ohio State. And they won, Oregon won that night. And it was by far one of the most memorable nights of his birthday experience of his life until today.

And so honestly, President Trump, I have spent seven and a half years trying to find the perfect birthday gift for Charlie. And those of you that have spouses or loved ones, You know how difficult it is sometimes to buy a gift for someone that you love because he wasn't a materialistic man, so that also did not help. But now I can say with confidence, Mr. President, that you have given him the best birthday gift he could ever have. So very heartfelt.

The crowd was all Republican, no Democratic politicians, a bunch of Republican congresspeople and senators. Pundits for Fox News primarily. but wasn't any countermedia or any kind of, you know, the Democrats stayed away, just so you know. The press was respectful there, and the coverage of it was respectful, except for MS now. They just ignored it totally. And look, you know what that is. For me to bash that operation at this point, it's ridiculous.

Everybody knows what it is, and they ignored it and all of that. Now, I have an extensive analysis about this Cardinal Dolan Ben Jealous controversy involving Charlie Kirk on my YouTube channel. That's YouTube.com slash Bill O'Reilly. And the reason I'm not doing it on the No Spin News is I need 12 minutes to put the context, because it's very complicated. Ben Jealous, former, ahead of the NAACP, attacked Timothy Cardinal Dolan of New York City after the Cardinal said nice things about Joey Kirk. So Jealous thinks Kirk is a racist and all that.

To get into that kind of a volatile situation, I had to have very precise, all right, research, number one, which I have. And then I had to have sound bites to illustrate. what actually happened. We're talking about the death of an illegal migrant, okay, who was killed by ICE. We're talking about affirmative action and former first lady Michelle Obama and others, okay?

Serious. So it didn't want to put it into a mix. I wanted to stand alone. I'm sorry if it's an inconvenience, but our YouTube channel is free. So all you got to do is go, there. Again, it's YouTube.com slash

Bill O'Reilly and become a subscriber. It costs you nothing. And we do two or three of these a week. But I'm taking this very, very seriously. So that's why I did it that way. And that's the memo.
