O'Round the World - October 18, 2026
00:00On the next episode of Podforce I have an exclusive interview with U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche.In California, when they mail out ballots to every single person who's eligible to vote,who's registered to vote, tens of thousands of people who are here illegally or who are not citizens are getting ballots.So that's not, that's a pattern, and that's intentional, and they know they're doing it.The midterms are looming. Is the Justice Department ready for the,fallout? Join me, Miranda Devine, as I ask the Attorney General about how he's stamping outvoter fraud, welfare fraud, illegal migration and violent crime. He'll tell us what else is in the Epsteinfiles and how he is cleaning up a justice department that was weaponized by the Biden administration.

02:24Let's begin.Abdul El-Said.We invited him on.He was in New York.I'm in New York.I would have bought him a latte.I don't know if he drinks lattes,but whatever he wanted.
02:45Ice cream soda?No.I'm going, why is he dodging me?We have millions of people watching us now.And they're zeroed in on the midterms.Why would this guy dodge me?Now, usually people dodge me when they,can't answer the questions.
03:05Mark Wayne Mullen had a Homeland Security.Dodged us.Not Tom Homan.Homan's a stand-up guy.He doesn't dodge.Mark Wayne, no.So it goes both ways.They're not confident they can answer to the questions.
03:26I'm not going to yell at them like I did Barney Frank.I'm, but I'm going to be stern in the sense that I want answers to the questions.That's not unreasonable.Okay, so else I had, he dodges.But he goes, I meet the press on Sunday, NBC.Kind of safe, NBC is rooting for the Democrats.I think we all know that.And he talks about his view of capitalism.
04:03Go.I think billionaire should pay their fair share back into the system.I believe that means we have to pass a wealth tax.I think when you start taxing billionaire at wealth,you have the opportunity to return trillions of dollars back to the economyto allow other people to participate.I think right now about kids going to school in Detroit.They're going to school in buildings that looked like they did 50 years ago.
04:23I don't know that they have the opportunities to be able to go and become that millionaire.Okay, so here's my follow-up if I'm the moderator of meet the press.And the moderator, of course, didn't say anything because she doesn't know.She just doesn't know.First of all, there are 989 billionaires in America.350 million people, 989.So you can't raise enough money, no matter if you tax them 90% to do anything.There you can't.
05:04There's a myth.Detroit.So the average student gets $30,000 to go to a public school.That means that the state of Michigan,spends $30,000 educating the student.Okay?So how about Dallas?Dallas, Detroit, similar, right?
05:32Dallas is a little bit bigger.How much do they spend?They spend about $19,000.So Detroit spends considerably more on its students than Dallas does.So what's the beef?30K for a student for one urchin.A lot of jack.Right?
05:58So why wouldn't they have a chance to be a millionaire?Do nobody in Dallas have a chance to be a millionaire?A lot of millionaires in Dallas and Texas.Lots, lots, lots, lots.So it makes no sense whatsoever, none.And you just take them apart.Okay?like, hey, the Dallas kids don't have nearly as much resources as the Detroit kids.
06:27Why?He can't answer that.He can't answer it.So that's why it would come on with me.But on NBC is like, oh.So Elsa, it is very articulate.That's his big advantage over Rogers.But Rogers is much better.
06:47as far as his vision for the country.Much better.Because Rogers wantsto retain our capitalistic system.I assume he wants to improve it.He's a civil servant.I mean, the guy has been working for the government.I assume he wants to.
07:06I'm giving him that advantagethat he's not a bad man,that he wants to do good.But he knows, you know,I know that 989 individuals, no matter how much you tax them, are not going to matter.Money's not going to matter.We owe $40 trillion.So what the deuce is going on?
07:35Well, if you start to tax billionaires at a 90% level or whatever vision the radical left has,but it's got to be 80, 90%, and that's taken.their stuff, taking their private property, because you now just tax income.A lot of billionaires have corporations, you're taxing that.So if you're going to do that, you're not going to matter.But if you then progressively start to tax wealth, say over a million dollars, then you getinto serious money, flowing into the government, the state andthe feds. And the only way you can do that because these people, these wealthy people,
08:26they got every tax dodge in the world. They're writing things off. They've got corporations.They've got this. They've got that. But the only way is to write laws that are clearand easy to understand. Now, the radical left and the Democratic Party, which is very close together now,they don't care about these people. They think they're all corrupt. They don't admireentrepreneurial skills. They don't admire that. They want to take what these geniuses have come up with.They want to take it. So I've been very successful in my career.and I pay a hell of amount of tax to New York State and the feds.And local taxes here on Long Island as well.
09:19Lots and lots of money.And I don't dodge it.I play right by the rules.Okay?So, but if they could, they double what I pay.Double.This is the radical left.That's what they want.
09:37That's what El-Said wants.That's socialism.them. And if they come in and say, hey, you got a nice car there, O'Reilly, and I don't have a 10-year-oldcaddy, okay, you need to pay me $3,000, $4,000 a year just to have a car in a garage. That's whatthe left wants. Take, take, take from the successful, give, give, give, and the money thatthey're giving away, much of it is wasted. Explain to me, why do you? Why do you? You know, give, give, give. And the money that they're giving away,Detroit has a much higher rate of tax money going to educate students than Dallas.Explain it to me.
10:23Why?Where's the money going in Detroit?Federal government can't oversee that.I'll say he didn't care.Detroit, they can't become millionaire, no.That's at the high level of spending for students.Okay, I hope that was interesting and certainly it is germane to the midterm elections.Here's my weekly appearance with W.O.R.'s Mark Simone.
11:02Did you watch Katie Zachariah, the first briefing that she gave this morning?Yeah, I watched.A little shaky.You know, I think we have to give the woman a break.a big forumshe doesn't have any experienceshe read off the pagetook a couple of questions
11:23I you know lookit's the Trump showso he's on a plane to Alaskahe'll be pressed on the planehe'll answer all the questions on the planewhich she saidthat's going to happenso they were smart to break her in
11:40slowlybut she basically isn't going to be a decision makeror have the power that many of the other presidential press secretaries had.Yeah, now, she was a little nervous.She appeared a little nervous.She'll get over that.But if you watch MSNBC or CNN,they're describing it as train wreck.
12:04She'll be the next, she won't last as long as Scaramucci.That's a little ridiculous, isn't it?Of course, but, you know,You know, there comes a point in life where you have to make decisions, Simone.Are you going to watch that?I mean, really.Well, explain it to me.Why do I keep watching it?
12:26I mean, you know, you need material for your programs.Oh, okay.I mean, you went out of here, I think, 48 hours straight.I thought it was a Jerry Lewis telethon.Yeah, yesterday.You're sitting in for Hannity.You got your own show.They're expanding it to eight hours, I understand.
12:42So you need material.I understand that.But why would any human being working for a living outside the mediasit there and watch this unbelievable, preposterous garbage coming out of this station?Yeah.I don't understand it.And I'm not being facetious, as Joe Biden once said.Okay?
13:06I don't understand why anybody would waste their time watching that.Well, if you want to hate Trump, if you want to be a left-wing kook, there's a network or two that they'll feed you with all the stuff you can use.What is that?Like heroin?You got to have it every five hours?Yeah.All right, I hate Trump.Okay.
13:27We all know people who hate Trump.So what do you need?You need to be hating them every hour on the hour.Can you take a break?Go to the gym?I mean, come on.So what is that?they do, I notice some of these left wing, the old lady left wing trumpet, they want to talk about it 24 hours a day.
13:47They want to make it their number one activity. Why is that?I guess they're bored.They don't have anything else going on. And so, you know, they have a little pack of people and they exchange texts and he's this, he's that.But it's such a waste of time. It just really is. Read my book.Right? Confronting America. You'll learn something in the book. And it's not a Trump book. In fact, he's not in the book very much at all. It's about what we people have to do to straighten the country out. Let me give you a good example. I was absolutely appalled when I found out over the weekend that almost 17,000 Homeland Security requests to hold.alleged criminal aliens were ignored by Governor Hockel and the New York state apparatus.17,000.Now, this puts my kids, everybody's kids, everybody themselves in danger.
15:00Do you not understand that?Now, I know the open border people don't care.I got it.It's a fringe group.Let everybody in.if they want to commit crimes, we'll let them out, no bail, whatever.I got it.They're loons.
15:16They're crazy.But Hogle could win again.And I'm saying you have any idea the destructive nature of ignoring Homeland Security's request to hold somebody so they can pick that person up on alleged criminal charges?and they say no and that's what Blakeman has got a whale on that tonight he's got to open middle and close on this womanKathy Hochle is putting all of us in danger now a lot of people aren't going to care I understand all rightbut if Blakeman really wants to get to the core of the matter that's what he's got to doYeah, but a lot of these people, not only don't they want these illegal criminals removed,they think they're heroes, this guy that was shot, Oscar, they keep talking about Oscar,
16:16how dare they try to villainize Oscar.Why do they end up making them heroes, these people?Well, that's a neurosis.If you think a guy, that guy is a hero, then you need to get into therapy fast.But the state of New York, this guy,fled guilty to grand larceny.He was given probation,which means that if you violate your probation, you go to prison, correct?
16:46Yeah.Okay.He violates his probation by getting arrested for selling hard drugs in the Bronx.Does he go to prison?No.Is Darcel, whatever name is, up the DA in the Bronx?So overseeing this case now, was she screaming and yelling get this guy back into prison?No.
17:12And the criminals know this, not just the migrants, but the regular criminals.They know they can sell their heroin.They can do heinous things.They can beat people up.They can extort people.And nothing will happen to them.And this is the governor you want?This is the person you want running your...
17:34state? If I'm Blakman, I go to that first and then I go to the tax insanity, where the highesttax state in the union. That's pretty hard to beat California and Illinois. It's really hard,but we did it. Go to New York. Yeah. The only problem, Blakeman will be great, but it's on New Yorkone, which nobody sees. She's turned down debates on all the big states. Yeah, but it'll get on socialmedia.You think it will.It'll get on social media.Yeah.
18:08If he waxes her, and this is what Bruce has to do, and he's got to go in, and he's got to bea little hostile, not obnoxious, not threatening, just I've had it.I have had it as a New Yorker.This is insane, and this woman is in charge of the insanity.Not ma'am, Donnie.Not the other nuts up in Albany.This woman's in charge.And you want to give her another four years?
18:43That's how I go in.That'll get a lot of attention.Yeah.Well, it's good.It's tonight, 7 o'clock in New York One, if anybody.It'll also be streaming online somewhere.Hey, Bill O'Reilly, the podcast, I love it.We'll do it live.
18:57You and Geraldo, always great together.And you guys, how long have you guys been,fighting like 20 years?Oh, longer than that.Oh, my God.You know, I'm so much better looking than Geraldo that people don't think we're the same age.But it's got to go back 35 years.But the worthiness of the, we'll do it live.
19:22And if you go to Bill O'Reilly.com, you get it free.So I said to Horado, look, you and I are never going to agree on migration.You'd let them all in.And I'm not letting them all in, okay?simple as that.So we didn't debate that.We debated all of the other issues in the midterms, which is three weeks from today.And people deserve, and we weren't yelling or hitting each other or doing anything like that.
19:52He put forth his point of view, I put forth my point of view, and you can see, you can makeyour own determination who is a stronger argument.That's what the press should be doing.they don't do it, of course, because there's very few people smart enough on the air to handle a debate like that.Herala's a smart guy. He's not stupid.All right.He just gets very emotional with the immigration stuff.But I recommend everybody watch that debate because it'll be the best debate on the midterge you'll see.
20:25And I'll be very interested to see if Blakeman usually the opportunity he has tonight, you know, because that's pretty,much hit. He's got to win this and he's got to get attention and he's got to go in very hardor he's not going to win the governorship. Well, it's tonight at 7 o'clock. And everybody,make sure you watch Bill O'Reilly's YouTube channel. Look at the Raldo podcast. We'll do it live.And the book is phenomenal. Confronting America takes you through so many things that happenin this country and what you have to do to turn it around. It's a great book. And it is annew we'll do it live coming out?Yeah, we have Stephen A.
21:09Oh, good.Stephen A. Smith. Very good.But I interview, as you know, because you know me a long time.I interview in a different style than most people do.And I like to get to the why of it all.You know, a guy like Stephen A. Smith, born in the Bronx,Raising Queens, and it becomes the most famous sports guest in America.How did that happen?
21:30Yeah.How did that happen?And that's what I'm going to be getting into with him.And then we'll get into politics and this and thatbecause we do the three American stuff with Cuomo and him and me.So it should be a lively, lively 45 minutes, that's for sure.Listen to me as I join News Nation.We just told you what's happening with inflation right ahead of the midterms.
22:00The president is now campaigning out west.This is a big issue for Americans.the president has done enough to rectify the situation with voters ahead of the midterms?I don't know what else he can do. He's out there telling everybody that if you vote Democrat,you're voting for socialist, which is pretty much what the Republicans have. My question, though,Katie, is if you are concerned about the United States other than your own wallet, is it,worth the chance for $2,000, because that's pretty much what the economic people say,this is how much more Americans are paying this year than last year for energy, $2,000,
22:53the average house.Is that worth the chance that you were going to elect a party that's going to just rip up traditional America?That's really what the issue is.So 2000 is 2000.I mean, come on.Who can be happy about that?Yeah.But you get these radicals in power.
23:20I don't know if you're going to be real happy with what's going to come down a pike.Bill, do you think, I mean, reminding people of the past isn't always the way, you know, to win elections because people want to look forward.However, you know, Democrats were the part.of wanting to eliminate oil and gas for many, many years.There was lots of legislation, the Green New Deal on Capitol Hill, where they were advocatingto squeeze energy companies, to make gas prices so high that you'd be forced to buy an electriccar and not purchase gas at all.Do you think the president and the administration and Republicans running for office have
23:54made that clear enough, as you just mentioned, like, what's the choice is here?I don't know whether that's a central part of,what people are thinking about.Certainly a reminder doesn't hurt,but the bigger issue is, listen,if the Democrats get power,and I'm not talking just the last two and a half yearsof the Trump administration,
24:22but if the Democrats get power,they're gonna raise taxes.$2,000 is gonna be nothing.Gonna be like 50 cents.Not everyone, not just the rich, like they claim.Everybody was gonna pay more and moremore and more and more because the centerpiece of the Democratic Party is national health insurance.That has bankrupted France and the U.K., all right?
24:48Those numbers are easy to track down.So if you think $2,000 is hurting you, way do you see what the new tax brackets will be if Democrats control Washington?Yeah, that's absolutely true.Well, speaking of Democrats, we have to talk about Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.Sources just told News Nation that her phone was seized during Monday's rate of her D.C. home.We know that she's under criminal investigation for allegedly making false statements on her immigration paperwork, potential fraud there.There are accusations that she married her brother, of course, also more immigration fraud.How do you see this case playing out, especially now that subpoenas have been issued to a number of members of her family?
25:32I don't think it's going to affect the vote in November at all.If she did something wrong, if it's just a date problem, then that's not going anywhere.If she did something wrong, then she should be held to account.But is it going to be a national issue for November in the midterms?No.What about Democrats who are screaming saying that this is about political retribution and DOJ shouldn't be doing this or an HSI shouldn't have carried out theraid three weeks ahead of an election.Well, they're probably right.
26:06You know, the Trump administration doesn't likeCongresswoman Omar at all.And she is an example of a radical leftistwho will change every facet in this country if she could.So motivation, look, I'm not going to read anybody's mind.If she broke the law, as I said, she should be held to account.Well, speaking of the election, this may have actually been a factor given we're so close to November in the midterms.Kimberly Guilfoyle, she resigned as the U.S. ambassador to Greece.
26:42The White House said that she was asked to resign.She was a little bit defiant in her statement.Last night we spoke to Eric Dieter's, one of the men accusing her of a quid pro quo, even though he admits that he was given no favors.And that's what his frustration is.He paid her money for legitimate services and didn't get access to the administration as he wanted.So now he has a different message for the Trump administration.Here it is.Is there someone else you're going to serve up on a silver platter to get what you want?
27:08I might.J.D. Vance is one of the individuals that ignored my request.And J.D. Vance is going to be the frontrunner in 2028.And I am not going to let J.D. Vance off the hook.So if they want to shut up, I let them, I sent him an email today.I sent Susie Wiles and Don Jr. an email today.And I said, extradition.I made this demand.
27:33Extradition and investigation.Or I am going to not only sue Kimberly Guilfoyle, I am never going to shut up.And you need to understand something.Not only is the State Department still investigating.The Democrats on the Foreign Relations Committee and the Oversight Committee have contacted me.But this lawsuit gives me the power of subpoenas, documents, depositions, and everything else.I don't think the Trump administration wants this to keep going.And if they don't do what I'm asking to do, I'm going to make sure it keeps going.
28:05So it sounds like you're threatening them.It's a promise.It's not a threat.It's a political promise.This goes on every day in America all across the country.Hey, if you don't help me over here politically, I'm going to do that to you politically.That's what I'm doing.So Bill, I also asked him if he stands to gain financially for getting this doctor back from
28:26Pakistan to the United States and he admitted that he would get millions of dollars back.So he has a bigger incentive here.Your response to his demands and saying he's emailing the vice president, he's demandingthe chief of staff at the White House, pay attention to him and his threats against J.D.Vance for the upcoming presidential election.Well, I think he made a foolish move by doing any media at all.If I'm a judge, I throw that out on day one.I just throw the whole case out.
28:55because obviously he's vindictive.I've never seen a guy happier to destroy other people.And I don't know anything about Kimberly Guilfoyle,what she did or did not do.I live in New York, not Athens.But look, if I'm a judge, I see this as a threat, just as you said.And almost extortion.That if you don't do this, I'm going to do that.
29:25extortions of crime in this country, I believe.So I think this guy might be in a little bit more trouble than he thinks he is.I think you are correct with that.All right, Bill O'Reilly, as always, thank you so much for being here.Great to see you.Please join me in Sid Rosenberg on WabC. Radio.We got Stephen A. Smith on the We'll do it live.Oh, love that.
29:55Long form.Love it.Did you do it yet?By the way, did you do that yet?Or you're doing it?You're first doing it.No, we taped it on Tuesday.It drops today.
30:05Awesome.Boy, it's worth watching.It is worth watching.Well, you guys, look, you're both great anyway.You really are.And you've got the relationship because of two of youoften appear together with Chris Cuomo.So you guys are good to go.
30:21Yeah, but, you know, you can bounce around with Stephen A.between sports and politics.But I want to get his story, too,which we were able to pry out of him.But the big thing in this is that in confronting Americawould have to change.One of the most provocative chaptersis my saga to try to help Barack Obama
30:48in the mentoring program call Brothers Keeper.and a very famous personkilled itthe program.I had it. I had it.And it would have raised more than a billion dollarsfor kids at risk.And I basically started off with Stephen A going
31:12is a white guy like meraised in Levit Town, which is segregatedback then because the Leavid brotherswouldn't sell blacks.am I qualified?Can I help the African-American community?Will that be accepted?And that discussion is very interesting.
31:33That sounds great.You go to billowalli.com.We made it as, you know, if I can get on the damn thing, anybody can.It's easy.It's easy.No, it's easy.Yeah.See, occasionally I have differences with Stephen.
31:46I love the guy, too.He's on this show all the time.You know that you've heard him here.But that's good.No, I love him.But occasionally in his enthusiasm, and I do the same thing with the Jews, okay?I do.But in his enthusiasm to support African Americans, he interviews and says nice things about people that are terrible people, that are racist.
32:09Joy Reid, for example.Who's the other one?Jamel Hill.All Jamel Hill did on ESPN for years was badmouthed white people and protect black people.And I'm saying, Stephen A, you've got to be better than that.I'm sorry.Well, look, that's what makes America robust, and all of that discussion is a positive.What we have now, and who pointed it out earlier on a program,
32:37Oh, Dershowitz just pointed out, censorship.You got censorship across the board.So, you know, I'm promoting this book, Confirning America.and I'm getting my bookings are, you know, up to my eyebrows.But I can't get on the networks.They will not book me because I'm not a Trump hater.It's as simple as that.The view, too.
33:00You can't get on the view either.No, and I was on all of those shows.You'll remember when I was doing a Fox gig, that wasn't a problem.But once Trump came in and I said to my audience, look, I know the guy at 35 years,I'm going to be fair to him.Okay, I'm sorry.I'm going to be fair.I'm going to try to explain what he does, why he does it,
33:28and then you can make a decision.That's my job.That's what I do.Well, as soon as you say that,you are disqualified from going on CNN or any of the networks.You can't get on there.Which is ridiculous for you because,I admit this, okay, I'm a sycophant.
33:49Now, now, lately, I find myself criticizing Trump a lot.When I say lately, I mean for Monty, I ran stuff I criticize him for.I don't like this new press secretary, okay?He should have hired my friend, Liz Pipco.But almost every week, there's something I don't love about Trump.I still love him, love him to pieces.I think he's a phenomenal president, but I am critical.But I'm still a sycophant.
34:14You, you, in all fairness, and you get a little.along well with President Trump, he loves and respects you, you're top on them.And you were that way back in 2016.That's when I fell in love with you.Well, that's my job.I mean, I'm not a flack.You can't hire me to be in your pocket.And that's why I've been successful for more than 50 years in the media.
34:40And I've had to leave jobs.I've had to walk out of work.and I have a great story in Confirting Americaabout me and Dan Rather.I'd die.And I couldn't stay therewith what he was doingand his acolytes.
35:03And so, but now we're ata levelnever seen in my lifetime. Vietnam was rough.rough. This is worse.Yeah, but this is worse.I'll tell you why, though, and then you'll make your points, and you're much smarter and a lot more.Vietnam was terrible, Nixon, all that.But the reason why all this has gotten exponentially worse is two words.
35:30Social media.Yeah, I don't disagree with that, because there's so much propaganda on the computer and phoneand people don't have the time to run it all down.And your point, dovetails right into my point.So you got Beningo on earlier in Sid and Friends.I think you had all of your friends on today, all six to them.Anyway, Beningo says the polling is bogus, okay?He's right.
36:07And that the networks and the cable, the anti-Trump cables, are always going to spin the poll so that their people, the Democratic Party, their allies now, look better.Let me just give you a stark example.There's an outfit called The Cook Report.And they came out this week and said the 65% chance of the Democrats,taking Congress, both houses. And I'm going, that's pretty risky. Let's track that down.So when Trump was elected in 2024, the Cook report couldn't have been more wrong.They got everything wrong, everything. Okay? So they made a New York Jets coach.You know, there's 50 of them, all right, look like geniuses,
37:11look like Vince Lombardi.All right.Yeah.And nobody mentions, well, maybe the Cook Report got some problems in there.I have to go to Brazil to get an honest pollster to use on the no spin news on my newscast.I have to go all the way to Brazil.Is that true?Yeah.
37:37I can't use any of the American polling.No, no, you can use one.No, you can use one.I know you love him, too.John McLaughlin.I knew you were going to say that.But he's polling for a political party, the Republicans.True.
37:57So he's not objective.I can't get into the Democrats of their pollsters.John, John has been accurate.Let's give John his due.Jim is brother. They're both great. Yes.Right. Okay. So if Johnputs out a poll, I read it.But John's working for
38:15Republicans. I want somebodywho's not work over anybodywho's just going to get the data.But the data is almostimpossible to get nowbecause people don't answerthe telephone in their homes.They are on the computer, on
38:31the cell phones.If your number comes upon the cell phone and you don't know the number,You don't answer it.Is that correct?Yes.Okay, so how can you poll?What are you doing?
38:45No one's answering.Oh, God, it's true.The number pops up.I don't know it.I don't pick it up.No one.You'd have to be insane to pick it up.Okay, but what?
38:57It might be some guy from Kazakhstan.You don't know.Trying to drain your bank account.Hey, listen, that happens a lot.And these elderly people, to your point,They do pick up, and they rob them of hundreds of thousands of dollars.They do it every time.But what you're saying, then, Bill, this is important.
39:15Because we are 19 days away for the midterm elections.And I speak to Republicans and Democrats.This is both, not just Democrats.And their prediction for Election Day, for the Republicans in the House, is pain.What you're saying is, well, how do we really know?Is that what you're saying?Well, I'm saying that the data used to back that up is faulty.So I don't want to get on Mr. T's wrong side with the pain thing.
39:49All right.That was in Rocky 3.Rocky 3, Rocky 3, very good.Clubber Lang.Yes, very good.Very good.I'm saying that the data that's being put out by the media is faulty.And let me give you the best example I can possibly give WABC listeners around the country and in New York City.
40:12The main reason that the Republicans and President Trump are not polling well and are unpopular in some precincts is the Iranian war.And you and I discussed this when it first happened.And I said to you, as I've said to my audience, biggest gamble of Trump's life.Because I know the region, bin to the region.I know how this plays.All right?They'll tell you one thing, and then they're going to steal everything in your tent.Okay, generalizing, but this is what the culture is.
40:51You're not going to get anything solid out of these people.So the American voter, according to government statistics, released this week,is paying $2,000 more per household than it did this time last year for energy.$2,000 more.And my question is a very simple one, because you know I'm a simple man.All right.Is it worth, and if you're a New Yorker, this is on steroids,is it worth the 2000?
41:28What the deuce do you think is going to happen?If the Democratic Party and the radical left sees power, do you not understand?They're going to raise your taxes so high.You'll be lucky if you have a covered wagon in the driveway.It's true.Okay?Yeah.And you're bitch in about $2,000.
41:52Well, that's just energy.Well, wait a second.That's just energy.You got gas prices around.But, but that's the driver.Okay.if you didn't have the 2000 in energy,people would be grousing about food
42:06and the food would be lessbecause the trucks and the transportationjacked the prices up of the food.But if Trump had not gone into Iran,the Republicans would be well aheadbecause who wants to vote for Calerico?Right.Or El-Sayat for that.
42:26But I will say this.When I get a conversationto the Republicans, Democratic,go listen,He did this because he wanted to make sure that the Iranians didn't have a nuclear weapon, okay?Because they would use it against Israel.Now, odds are you don't like Israel, not you.You don't care.
42:42But guess what?They would use it against the United States.And here's the answer, Bill O'Reilly, that I always get.You're ready?I've been hearing Iran is close to a nuclear weapon for 30 years.Why am I supposed to believe that a couple of months ago they were any closer?We didn't need this. We didn't want this. We don't want new wars. I've been hearing Iran is close for 30 years.That's what you hear all the time. Okay, because people believe what they want to believe.
43:11So if you look up the IEA UN weapons organization, their last dispatch was in July of this year.and it clearly says that Iran could put together a nuclear weapon within weeks.This is the United Nations, not Trump, not, you know, anybody with a vested interest,because certainly the United Nations, no fan of Israel or the United States.This is their latest report.So people, they're going to believe what they want to believe.But the timing of this hurt President Trump and the Republican Party.If he had cruised through the year and then after he wins the midterms,
44:06and I do believe that would have happened, then you go in, you've got two years of clear,you can do what you want.Then you go in.Okay.but what the president was sold was,we can knock these guys out like we did with Maduro.He misjudged it.He did.
44:28We can get them.They're all in a garage.Smoking weed.All we got to do is drop the bomb on them, which we did.They killed them.But like ants, there's so many of them that two seconds later,there's another guy in a turban going,I want to kill everybody.
44:45That's it.Yeah, that's it.That's that.That was the miscalculation. Now, Trump, he's doing the right thing by confronting enemiesthat to destroy the earth. He's doing the right thing. But the timing of it hurt Americans,50% of whom don't pay attention. All they know is, I've got to fill the truck up, and it's costing me a lot more than it used.to. Right. So I'm going to vote for Al-Said. Does that make any sense? No. It doesn't make any sense at all.It's like betting on the Miami Dolphins. Okay. Go ahead. You want to vote on it? You want to bet on the
45:35Miami Dolphins? I'll take your cash. Okay. It's so ridiculous. But that is where we are.The Constitution gives every single American one very stark right.You have the right to be a moron.Okay?And Benjamin Franklin was the best.If you read him, he knew he knew that this was going to become a problem.That an ill-informed electorate, people who don't know anything, who are swayed by,propaganda who vote their wallet above everything else.
46:19I mean, God, I'm saying to myself, Calerico?Look, the other guy, Paxton, I mean, you and I, which, if he were in New York,we'd bring him down to the battery and push him in the Hudson, okay?Let's be honest.The guy is just a nebish.Yep.He is.He is.
46:40But Calerico?The lunatic.Okay.he disappears for two weeks.No one on his staff can text that Jimmy's got the sniffles.Nobody could do that.No, he had the flu.He was gone for weeks.
46:57Who's buying this?I don't know.Americans, people in Texas, clearly are buying it because he's winning as of this morning,although again, it's very close and we're a couple of weeks away.So I got to run, but I got to tell you that this was another unbelievable appearance.next week is a very important appearance bill, because a week from today, next Thursday, as soon asmy show is over, I'm going to walk over to the Rainbow Room in Rockefeller Center, and I'll beinducted into the New York State Broadcasting Hall of Fame, and I couldn't think of a better
47:31person to speak to last on my radio show that day than you, because I mean this when I look atmy success over these last couple of years at ABC, and where my career.year is gone, whether it's President Trump or other famous people that are on this show quite a bit,there was nobody ahead of you.
