Bill O'Reilly here and I'm warming up. Stand by for the O'Reilly Update Morning Edition, but first. On this Thursday, Florida Congressman Matt Gates was attending an event in Fort Walton Beach when he was allegedly assaulted by a 41-year-old woman. According to police reports, Gets was posing for a picture with a man when the alleged perpetrator threw a glass of wine that splashed both men. She was arrested, held in custody overnight, and met the $1,000 bond the next morning. Now, the woman turns out to be a progressive activist who routinely despises anything Trump on social media. Mr. Getz is a Donald Trump supporter, motive established. Many would not press an incident like this in criminal court, but the congressman says he will.

He points out that throwing objects, even liquids, can damage people and gets his correct. Low-level assault should be confronted, or this country will have more of it. In New York City, you can actually punch someone in the face, and the DA won't do a thing. Apparently, that crime is beneath his office. The result is a violent, dangerous city where innocent people are heard every day and their assailants walk. That is wrong in every way, and Matt Gates is right to press charges against the loon who assaulted him. Enough with this barbarism. All of us are going to have to send a message.

That kind of behavior should be punished. Back after this. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays.
