Bill O'Reilly here, and I'm warming up. Stand by for the O'Reilly Update Morning Edition, but first. On this 4th of July, a new poll says 39% of the American population is extremely proud to be a U.S. citizen. And that is the lowest number extremely proud in the history of the poll. Now, in 2004, 70% of Americans, according to St. Paul, were extremely proud to be Americans. So what's happened in 19 years? Well, first of all, 2004 was the blowback in the jihad world for 9-11. So the United States took the lead. We brought down Saddam Hussein. We terrorized. al-Qaeda, we went into Afghanistan and routed the Taliban. There was all kinds of aggressive

action to protect the homeland. And Americans, generally speaking, rallied to that. Now, because Iraq did not go well, that number started to decline, the 70% number. Today, what we're looking at on the 4th of July is a federal government in disarray, led by the second worst president in U.S. history, Joe Biden, James Buchanan being the first I have gone over that. When you have terrible inflation, when you have uncertainty, and a president who is obviously incompetent, you're going to have people not feeling patriotic. Now this.
