Starting point is 00:00:00 Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Wednesday, October 18, 2003, stand up for your country. You know, I was going to lead with the House vote and Jim Jordan and all of that, but it's just too chaotic. I just can't. It's the usual Republican Party madness. They can't get it together. They'll never get it together.
Starting point is 00:00:38 I'm going to tell you later on in the broadcast how this affects the country, and it's not good. But to do this on a daily basis, it's like the budget, raising the budget ceiling. I just have to wait and see what happens, okay? So in lieu of that, we're going to go back to the Hamas-Israel War and President Biden over there that is the subject of the Talking Points memo. So at about 11 a.m. local time in Israel, the president arrived. All right, he got a good night's sleep on Air Force One. I've been on the plane and a giant bed and it's just like being in a luxury apartment.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Okay, you got everything in the every food you could want, every service you could want, You get in your jammies, put your head down, you fall asleep, they wake you up for breakfast. It's not rigorous travel. All right, so he lands about 11, and about 40 minutes later, he meets with Netanyahu, the leader of Israel. Then, after that, he meets with the war cabinet, and then after that, he meets with some of the families who've had people murdered by Hamas. And here's what he said. Go. Moss committed atrocities that recall the worst ravages of ISIS, unleashing pure, unadulterated evil upon the world.
Starting point is 00:02:02 There's no rationalizing it, no excusing it, period. The brutality we saw would have cut deep anywhere in the world, but it cuts deeper here in Israel. October 7th, which was a sacred Jewish holiday, became the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. It is brought to the surface painful memories and scars left by millennia of anti-Semitism and the genocide of the Jewish people. The world watched then. It knew and the world did nothing. We will not stand by and do nothing again. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever. Okay, that's standard issue speech, nothing wrong with it. The world stood by That's not true. The world took care of the Third Reich at great expense to human life.
Starting point is 00:03:01 There were people who didn't want to get into World War II. There were people who looked away from the Jewish atrocities. That's true. But, you know, Mr. Biden, he just reads what's put in front of him there. And it wasn't bad. I mean, he's got to show the world, and this is very important, that the United States and all its power is aligned with. Israel. It has to do that. Because if Israel is on its own, then the attacks are going to be
Starting point is 00:03:28 much more ferocious toward Israel. And we'll get into that in a moment. So after meeting with the Israeli officials, Biden, as you know, was supposed to go to Jordan to meet with the head of the Palestinian Authority, which doesn't really exist, and the head of Egypt, which does exist and could help out, and the Jordanian people. Well, that was called off because of the hospital bombing. So this broke yesterday and immediately people in America came out and said Israel blew up a hospital. I was on a radio today with Sean Hannity. Hanity did good research on this and ran down all the AP, CBS News. They all initially reported Israel blew up the hospital and Hannity had a list. Okay, that's true. They did.
Starting point is 00:04:21 At any evidence, nothing. Taken on the word of Hamas, Hamas said, of course Hamas is going to say that. Now it looks like, and U.S. intelligence has come out for whatever that is worth and said it was a misfired rocket from the terrorists that blew up the hospital. So the Islamic fanatics killed the poor people in the hospital, not Israel. tapes and and footage, drone footage, and ordinance, which that's to me the big one. So the ordinance that hit the hospital didn't have any Israeli markings on it. I wasn't there. I don't know 100%, but the heavy, heavy weight of evidence is that Israel
Starting point is 00:05:11 did not fire the rocket into that hospital. That's the prevailing evidence that has been produced. Moss hasn't produced anything other than saying the Jews did it. But people believe what they want to believe. You know that. That is a tenet of this program. It doesn't matter to the Jew haters, the Israel haters, that the terrorists hit the hospital. They want to believe Israel did. Add to that, that in places like Indonesia, Iran, Muslim countries around the world, there's no free press.
Starting point is 00:05:46 the people hear what the government wants them to hear and the government wants them to hear that the Jews will up the hospital. Right? It's not like there's a debate or you know, the no-spin news. I mean, we go into those countries
Starting point is 00:06:02 but you have to have a private server to get us. So at this point, and again, I'm falling back on U.S. intelligence because I wrote the book, killing the killers, and U.S. intel pretty damn good. They'd say, no, it was a misfire from the terrorist that caused the hospital debacle and all those dead people. So now Biden comes right back, and that makes sense, okay, because why don't you want to hang around there? There's going to be more violence, and I'm not speculating here. It's a short-term play, all right? There's going to be
Starting point is 00:06:38 more violence because the people want to destroy Israel. They see an opening now, all right? and they see demonstrations, they'll attack the American embassies, they try to do that in Beirut, all of that. So short term is going to be more violence. That's what always happens here. Long term, I don't know. I do know this, that the ridiculous news media in America, and it is ridiculous, you guys know that.
Starting point is 00:07:03 That's why you're watching and listen to me. Oh, Iran says it's going to do X, Y. Iran can't do Jack. All right, number one, you look at the map, Iran can't get any ground troops close to the situation. Number two, if Iran did anything, Israel just take out its oil fields and its ports. Israeli Air Force is going bomb the hell of it. Iran, I've got to stop it. And then to put Iran, they couldn't feed their people.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Iran, I don't do anything. I mean, they'll do what they always do. They'll spend money and train the terrorists to do these cowardly attacks. on civilians. That's what Iran does. That's what they do. Now, there's still an argument between CNN and Wall Street Journal. Another article in a journal today says, hey, Hamas was right behind on Gaza attack, right behind, and Iran did it. They're the ones that set it up. And CNN goes, no, Iran didn't have anything to do with it. So I told you I was going to get to the bottom of it. It's 80% now from my investigation that Iran was behind the Hamas attack.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I'm not going to say it definitively until I have 100%, but I'll get it. And then CNN, what it, CNN's not going to say anything. They're not going to say anything. They don't care if they make mistakes or misreport. They don't. Why would they care? Isn't that in business to tell you the truth? But anyway, back to Iran.
Starting point is 00:08:32 They can huff and puff like the big, bad wolf all day long. They can't do anything overtly with troops or anything like that. But no, now it didn't use me and me, oh, Ron, we're going to go, and then everybody gets panicked. Okay, stock market goes down. Oh, no, I'm not diminishing this. There will be violence, and it'll be the usual suspects attacking American interests in Israeli issues. And that's a memo. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress.
Starting point is 00:09:09 National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver. Theroux, the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. And you can do this. Get precious metals delivered to your door. Or place in a tax advantage, gold IRA. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401K, tax and penalty-free.
Starting point is 00:09:42 With billions in precious metals delivered thousands of five-star reviews and an A-plus from the Better Business Bureau, you can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326-55-7576 or text Bill to 99-89-8899. Again, that's 866-326-5576-5576 or text bill to 998899. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist, and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One. Every week, I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, newsmakers, and even the President of the United States.
Starting point is 00:10:36 These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. Okay, let's bring in a guy who will follow as a military aspect of this because that's what's coming next. Colonel David Hunt, you know him. You used to use them all the time on a factor. It comes to us from Maine. You want to look up David Hunt.
Starting point is 00:11:06 He's got all kinds of medals and honors, very brave man, Vietnam War, all of that. So my first question is, to you, I'm right about Iran. They don't have any capacity to attack Israel, correct? Yeah, I mean, they attack Israel through proxies like Amaz and Hezbollah. Iran is very weak. They're a problem. They're probably the center of the universe, the Middle East, partly because of what we did in Iraq.
Starting point is 00:11:37 But no, they're not attacking Israel directly. They're attacking Israel right now with the Moss, and we'll see if Thesbolo comes from the north or terrorist groups come out of the West Bank. Okay. So it's the same scenario that it's always been. You mentioned Iraq. Right before air time, there are a couple of drones launched by terrorists toward our air base in western Iraq where there are U.S. Special Forces based.
Starting point is 00:12:08 We took care of the drones. They didn't get through. But I don't think many Americans know that we have forces still in Iraq that police Syria and the surrounding terror hotspots, correct? We've got 2,500 soldiers out of the 10th Mountain Division. They're going to be there for nine months. They're in Kuwait, Syria, and Iraq, mostly doing guard missions and some patrolling. But that 2,500 manned force has been going on rotating every 10 months for a couple of years now. So, yeah, we've got forces there. And you need them there because the remnants of ISIS and al-Qaeda, and they're still floating around.
Starting point is 00:12:49 We also have military in Turkey, correct? Absolutely, big, huge base, insoluc, huge Air Force base. Yep, we do. But that's problematic because of the USA had to get involved with Iran or another Muslim nation. I don't know if Turkey's going to be down with that and let us use that base to attack people. They didn't in Iraq, as you know. They wouldn't do it in the 20 years were in Iraq or to Afghanistan. So my bet is yet nobody won't let us do it.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Okay, so why are we there? Why are we have all this big base in a Turkey? What do we accomplish by doing that? Well, it gets us closer to attacking some of our enemies. We have influence there, but the Turks are, as you know, duplicitous and cannot be kind of on fully. Yeah, then NATO members. There's a great question as to we could, there's a good argument we made to pull them.
Starting point is 00:13:50 No question. Okay. But there's a lot of CIA there on that base. There's a lot of Intel. Do you have any idea why the Israeli and American Intel was taken by surprise by the Hamas attack? No. There's no good explanation for 40 separate crossing sites developed by Hamas. There's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, there's, from, from, uh, from, uh, is really military bases. Uh, the number of hostages is at least 200, besides the women and kids, they, they, they took Israeli generals. This, this is a, a complete disaster from, from, uh, from, uh, as worse than they, the mistake made in the 73 war, when they missed the Syrian and Egyptian tanks massac on their board.
Starting point is 00:14:48 There's no explanation. And we get most of our intelligence from an area from Israel. But this was a complete failure and it has to be addressed because that's the same intelligence community that's going to be used on the attack in the Gaza. Unless you can figure out why and how you miss this, you've got a disaster in the hands going in the Gaza. Yeah, I mean, I'm surprised the CIA missed it because they have a big presence. in Tel Aviv at the American, well, the American embassy has been moved to Jerusalem.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Yes. And they have a presence in Jerusalem, but they also have a big presence in Tel Aviv, and they worked very closely with the Israeli intelligence. They both missed it, and that sends a real chilling message as far as our self-protection is concerned. They're going to miss that. What else are they missing, you know? They missed the Taliban coming north to south when we did that disaster pullout. That's a huge intelligence failure, and nobody paid for it.
Starting point is 00:15:50 When this question is getting asked the last 10 days, the Israelis and Americans want to pat you on the head and say, don't worry about that now. Let's go fight this war. Well, no, you've got to get the answer. Okay. Because that's the community that failed depending on. Final question, the aircraft carriers.
Starting point is 00:16:13 We've got the USS Ford already in the Mediterranean. in, another big carrier coming in. And this is basically to send a message that, you know, we're going to protect U.S. interests and we can bomb the hell out of you from the sea. This, again, sends a message to Iran. You better not mess around. Or is there more to it than that? That's primary mission.
Starting point is 00:16:41 Also, they've got phenomenal intel on both those aircraft carrier battle groups. They'll put Marines on there if there's going to have to be another evacuation, a large evacuation of U.S. And the threat, and they'll supply intelligence and logistical support, as we're doing right now to Israel for as long as it takes. The main one is a political statement, military statement, just like you said, Iran do not school around, keep Hezbollah Lebanon, and keep control of the units you have in the West Bank,
Starting point is 00:17:14 because we won't stand for that. And those missiles on those carriers, they're capable of reaching Hezbollah and all that stuff. They can just launch right out of there, right? Absolutely. And we've got, you know, submarines, et cetera, they can reach around. There's no issue about us being able to reach out. But they stick those. That's, as you know, that's a lot of ships surrounding an aircraft carrier. It's a big presence in the Mediterranean.
Starting point is 00:17:42 I hope you're following the best news presentation in the country, which, of course, is me. And I've been setting up this controversy between a Wall Street Journal, which flat out says Iran was behind the Hamas attack, and CNN, which says it was not. Do you have an opinion on it? 100% that Iran has been rolled back continuously held plan this, finance this, helped train up this. It's probably two years. There's a planning and rehearsal to get in to do what Hamas. did. There's no question about it. The only reason I can think
Starting point is 00:18:20 that we don't want to admit to this is we don't want to deal with Iran and the middle of doing Ukraine and helping Israel. Because there's no other reason. Israel says guaranteed they do. I don't, I don't care about. But the U.S. keeps
Starting point is 00:18:36 waffling on this and it's a problem. All right. Colonel David Hunt coming on us from Maine. We appreciate it as always. Stay well up there. We'll talk again soon. I hope.

Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your. your podcasts. Okay, so let's get to the politics. Look, as I said at the top of broadcast,
Starting point is 00:19:54 I mean, all I know is that the Democrats in the House of Representatives are united. They do whatever their leadership tells them to do. The Republicans are not. Now, in theory, that's a good thing, that you want to have your Congress people be independent problem solvers and not tethered to some kind of party ideology but in practice it shows the people of
Starting point is 00:20:23 the country that there's one party that's organized and another party that isn't so I don't know how this thing's going to come out this house thing there's a guy named McHenry in who could be speaker pro tem maybe that'll happen I'm not even gonna guess I'm gonna tell you this the President Biden has done so much damage to this country. With the border, with inflation on necessities, with regulations on everything, with insane government spending.
Starting point is 00:21:00 And I mean that word literally, insane, with a weak foreign policy that encourages Hamas and others to do awful things. Biden has done so much damage that the only way to correct the damage, in the short term is for the Republican Party to win across the board in November 24.
Starting point is 00:21:23 They have to take the House, the Senate, and the presidency. If they don't take all three, then the damage is going to linger. I don't believe Biden's going to run. You know that. The Democrats, they could win, I guess, even though everybody in the country
Starting point is 00:21:41 knows what a disaster the Biden administration is, I assume that maybe they hate Trump so much, because it looks like Trump will get the nomination, that they'll say, stay home or whatever? I don't know. All I know is Republican Party has got to be unified. And the reason it isn't, and I've said this before, and I'm sorry I found my repetitive, there's no leader.
Starting point is 00:22:09 Trump is not a Republican. He's a populist. He doesn't care about Republican politics. He runs on that ticket because the MAGA people and other supporters are primarily Republicans. Okay? He's not the leader of the party. Mitch McConnell isn't know where he is. He's as bad as Biden.
Starting point is 00:22:32 He's too old. He's befuddled. Nobody likes him. He's the minority leader in the Senate. And in the House, you don't have a leader. They threw McCarthy out. I thought McCarthy was okay. I'm not looking at it from a party or ideological thing,
Starting point is 00:22:48 and I think he was reasonable, and they booed him out because the hard line right wants what they want now, and they're never going to get it. So they boot him out. That's called the Pyrrhic victory. Yeah, you got him out, now what do you got? So that's my analysis as it stands. We'll cover the story.
Starting point is 00:23:10 It's ridiculous, in my opinion. In New York City, there is a hospital, Lennox Hill, and it is now owned by Northwell. Northwell is a huge medical provider all over the New York area. There is a doctor, Dana Diab. She is in the emergency room. She is very sympathetic to Hamas. She said, quote, Zionist settlers getting a taste of their own medicine, unquote. They fired her.
Starting point is 00:23:38 This is the canceled culture coming back at the progressives. who invented it, as we said yesterday. This is a fascinating thing. So now the cancel culture, which was invented off Saul Olinsky to destroy any opposition to the progressive movement, now turn it around. So bye-bye, Dr. Diab. And there's a whole bunch of other people getting the acts all over the country. Biden administration, apart from the Middle East, has done a couple of things you should know about. It has reached a legal settlement with the American Civil Liberties Union, ACLU, which is a political organization, not a free speech organization, far left, progressive organization. So 4,000 migrants who were separated
Starting point is 00:24:29 when they illegally crossed the border by the Trump administration, because there were times when you had to take people and vet them. So children were put here. People would say, well, I'm the father, and it didn't turn out that way. They weren't the father. Anyway, there were 4,000 families separated. All of those families now are going to get three years of government entitlements. Okay? Taxpayer is going to give them housing, health, legal assistance to apply for asylum.
Starting point is 00:25:08 All on our dime. This is what Biden did under the radar. Okay? 4,000 are going to get that. Then the homeless, health care. This is one of the biggest scams I've ever seen. So the U.S. centers for Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare is federal health insurance. I get that. Medicaid is state health insurance. Poor people get that. Okay, I wouldn't qualify for that. So now, under the Biden administration, street medicine providers, listen to this, this is so hard to believe, street medicine providers who treat the homeless in their tent villages or anywhere, not in a hospital, not in a clinic, no supervision, okay, they are going to be reimbursed by Medicaid. So I don't even know who these people are.
Starting point is 00:26:15 Are they registered nurses? Are they doctors? Are they physicians assistants? I don't even know. All right? But there are 600,000 homeless people estimated right now. About 450,000 of the 600 are drug addicts. Okay?
Starting point is 00:26:34 They're taking drugs all day. That's what they do. That's why they can't afford to live in an apartment or a house. So these people, I guess, are going to wander around these street medicine providers. I don't know, would they bandage people up? Do, you know, because they're all, they all have maladies. Did you know? I didn't know this.
Starting point is 00:26:56 The life expectancy of a homeless person in the USA is 48 years compared to 76 for the overall population. And why is it 48? Because they all are killed, killed by drugs. They kill themselves. But now the Biden administration has said, okay, just put in your little voucher and we'll pay for it. Do you think there'll be a little fraud here? Might there be a little fraud? Whoa, but this is Biden.
Starting point is 00:27:33 This is him. Did you know that story, by the way? If you knew it, tell me where you heard it. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, bill at bill o'Reilly.com, name and town. I bet you never heard that story because the media doesn't report this insane stuff. U.S. gets a C-plus in retirement.
Starting point is 00:27:53 So the Mercer Institute for Pension, global pensions. It's a think tank, I guess. They did a study. And they got 46 countries. I guess, or something like that. So we are, no, 47 countries. USA is 22nd in retirement benefits out of the 47. So retirement benefits are what the government gives you
Starting point is 00:28:25 combined with what you can see. The Netherlands is number one. So the Netherlands is about 18 million people. And the government is very generous, cradle the gave, entitlements and then they take all your money when you earn it, which is why there are more Dutch people here in the United States than there are in the Netherlands. Because you can't make any money. But when you get old, the government takes care of you in Holland. And then you can
Starting point is 00:28:57 have your 401ks or whatever. So they're number one. The worst country on a planet, or out of the 47 studied, is Argentina. It's totally chaotic and always has been in the economic realm. United States, as I said, is 22nd. Now, pensions and all that, this speaks to self-reliance. That's what it speaks to. And a lot of people are not self-reliant. They spend all their money. Most Americans, I'll submit, they don't have enough for retirement.
Starting point is 00:29:30 You get Social Security because you pay into it. Get Medicare because you pay into it. Okay, we're just getting back what we've already paid, but then what? If you're lucky enough to work for a company, it gives you a pension, that's nice, but those are going down. I don't get a pension from any company. I get a pension from after a SAG, my union, the union that just went on strike, okay? I get a pension from them because I've been paying dues for 40 years and to the union.
Starting point is 00:30:01 So I have that stream coming in, so I'm fine. I'd be fine anyway because my father told me when I was 17 years old, every paycheck, you saved 10% of your money. And I did since I'm 17. I saved it. Most people don't. So USA is a lot of self-reliance here. And that's the key to living out your senior years in comfort.
Starting point is 00:30:31 George Soros closing offices in Baltimore. Baltimore, Barcelona, and places in Africa, six offices in Africa. This is the Open Society Foundation, which is trying to corrupt the whole world, making the whole world into socialist enterprise with no borders, no crime control. That's George Soros' vision. Now, don't write me a letter going, why is he doing that? I am not a psychiatrist. He is a destructive man.
Starting point is 00:31:03 He has donated a lot of money to hurt me, okay, because I've been after him for a long time. Anyway, he's on the ropes, and we like that. 40% reduction in the workforce of the Open Society Foundation. And old George, who's 93, he handed his whole operation over to his son, Alex, in June. So this is, Alex is doing all this. But they're still very potent. We're going to have a story tomorrow about how much source of us. money's going into the Biden campaign.
Starting point is 00:31:36 And this is all you need to know about Joe Biden is that big source money is going in there. It's all you need to know. And we'll have that for you tomorrow. Smart life. So there's a million studies about nutrition. At the Antil Nutrition Group in Raleigh, North Carolina, they put out five snacks that'll help you are good for you. So as we all know, sugar is the devil.
Starting point is 00:32:00 all right there was a ridiculous study out earlier this week said sugar is as addictive as cocaine and heroin that's bull that's not true but sugar is addictive but not as addictive as cocaine and heroin okay so when you hear something like that you just go okay fine um but if you eat a lot of sugar you're going to die young because it kills your immune system a little sugar fine a lot of sugar you're dying young and you're going to die painful okay just keep that of mind so you're the best snacks smart life program remember this is the only show that does smart life for you greek yogurt high in protein keeps you full i eat it i throw a little blueberries on it it does not taste good right i'm not looking forward to it but i eat it full job little blueberries or
Starting point is 00:32:58 strawberries what on it good nuts and seeds pumpkin seeds it's the season they're good almonds walnuts i eat the cashews i have the almonds cashews are a little tastier three hummus vegetables uh once in a while once in a while whole grain crackers and cheese i eat that all i got to get the whole grain crackers, not the sugar crackers, all right? And you just slice a little cheese off. Okay, gives it a little dairy, you know, fights osteo, it's good, and it fills you up, all right? And finally, my favorite apple, slicey apple, and peanut butter. Now, some people put the peanut butter on the apple, not me. Okay? I'll put the peanut butter on a whole grain cracker. But if you eat some slices of apples and the peanut butter on a cracker, you'll be full.
Starting point is 00:34:01 You don't have to eat the ice cream and the cookies and a candy. So maybe when a kid's come trick-or-treating and go, it's like an apple and some cheese on a whole grain. And they'll go, no, I want the Reese's option. Stay on history, October 18, 2019. The State Department run by Pompeo under Trump, all right, completes its investigation to Hillary Clinton's email. emails. Did you have four years ago? Here are the findings. So they found, I love this, three and a half year investigation by the State Department, found a massive amount of documents on Hillary Clinton's private server that shouldn't have been there. Don't believe that.
Starting point is 00:34:45 They were there. But the investigators found, quote, no pervasive evidence of systemic deliberate mishandling of classified information. Then why was it there? Well, Hillary said, well, it was convenience. But here's something really interesting that we found out. The Attorney General at the time, which could have brought charges against Hillary Clinton, it did not, was Bill Barr, William Barr. He said in his book, the book is One Damn Thing After Another,
Starting point is 00:35:17 quote, President Trump went on to make a comment about Hillary Clinton. That surprised me. He said that despite the chance of locker up from some of his supporters, he felt that after the 16 election, email matter should be dropped. Even if she were guilty, he said the election winner to seek prosecution of the loser would make the country look like a banana republic, unquote. I think it's true.
Starting point is 00:35:44 I don't think Trump had any motivation to go after Hillary. This day in history. All right. mail segment and a final thought on tipping which i think is important right back okay let's go to the mail wane concierge member and again concierge membership bill o'reilly dot com got a problem you want more information about something you want to run something by me that's where you go we have a special email it's all confidential everything 100% question or your comment. I see it. I reply within 24 hours. It's a good service to have.
Starting point is 00:36:29 All right, Wayne says, I donated Doctors Without Board. There's a number of years back. I gave one donation. For many months, I got solicitations asked me to donate again. Every charity does that, unfortunately. Everyone. I just throw them away. There's another email from another Wayne. I don't think, this might be the same guy. So Wayne is getting a tooth for tonight, because it's a good email. O'Reilly, Mallorcas, is not doing a bad job. He is doing exactly what he's been told to do, which is open up the border and get as many people in here as fast as possible so they can vote.
Starting point is 00:37:03 That's a bad job, Blaine. Violating immigration laws, bad job. I don't care what he's told to do. You told to do something that you shouldn't do, you resign. Bad job. Kevin Wheeler, British Columbia, Canada. What do you make? I hate that phrase, though.
Starting point is 00:37:21 I appreciate you're right, and Kevin, but what do you make it that? Oh, there is a reporting that Netanyahu has been encouraging the Arab countries to prop up Hamas along with Iran in order to undermine any possibility of a two-state solution. Conspiracy, dumb stuff. That's what I make of it. Leona Kearns, Augusta, Georgia. I'm so angry that Democrats are deliberately stalling the election of Speaker of the House. Democrats have nothing to do with it.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Democrats are never going to vote for a Republican to be Speaker to the House ever under any circumstances. They're not the ones doing it. It's Gates and all those people. Come on, you got to be fair. Lois Buell, Tucson, Arizona, your remarks about the left term Maris College. Mirror is exactly what happened at my alma mater, It's in upstate New York. I know it.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Look, many colleges have veered sharply to the left. And your alumni, if you don't like that, don't give me any money. Mike Zachom, LaTroo, Pennsylvania, love the no-spin News. You reported that much of the millions raised by the Democratic Party comes from Hollywood people. I know you say you're not a boycott person, but I am, and I'm not going to watch these films. Well, look, the entertainment industry is listing. Let's put it that way. It's not in good shape at all. And I mean, I'll go to see a movie if I'm interested in it, but I know who's behind the Hollywood stuff. I don't like them, but I'm not going to let it, you know, seep into my life at that level. Steve Callahan, West Melbourne, Florida. What a great breakdown you did, Bill, on the origins of the Middle East yesterday, very informative. I'm sure most people have no idea how it started. We do a unique combination of history.
Starting point is 00:39:18 and journalism. And unique is the word. Who else does that? Nobody. And that's why you're here, I hope. Okay, Bill O'Reilly.com's story said yesterday, if you want to sign books for gifts, coming up for the holidays is already at the end of October now.
Starting point is 00:39:39 I've got to get your orders in. And I'm not kidding because I can't sign physically sign that many books. I did 1,000 today when I was doing. doing a book tour, radio book tour for Killing the Witches, Premiere put it together, was great. And we thank everybody you interviewed me. I was signing and answered the question at the same time on a radio. So I signed a thousand today. But, you know, my hands are like this. I look like Boris Karloff here. So if you want sign books for gifts, and they do
Starting point is 00:40:10 make great gifts, you go to Bill O'Reilly.com and you order them now. At the New York State of Mind on the live show on October 27th, we will have books, sign books in the lobby, if you want to buy them there. For all of you guys coming, it's a big crowd, so we'll have sign books in the lobby there. And word of the day, do not be a miscreant. M-I-S-C-R-E-A-N-T, when writing to me. Again, Bill O'Reilly.com, bill at bill-O-R-R-Riley. And we tweet three times a day at Bill O'Reilly. It's X, it's tweet, whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Sign up. You get pictures of Holly to tear a dog. I try to get her in there at Bill O'Reilly. Back in a moment, the final thought. Okay, so I'm out to dinner last night. This is the final thought tonight. And good dinner. I'm not gonna tell you the restaurant, it's not right.
Starting point is 00:41:05 I'm not in business to do all that, but service is good. And I undertipped a little. I didn't mean to. I just, the math was fuzzy in my mind. And not a lot. Guy did very well, but it bothered me. So now I've imposed a new rule on myself.
Starting point is 00:41:25 If the service is good, I'm tipping 20%. But that's easy math in my mind. All right. Now, some people say you shouldn't be tipping on tax. You shouldn't have to tip 20% on drinks. I'm just going to tip across the boy 20%. Because he's a hardworking people. And I was surprised last night,
Starting point is 00:41:46 It didn't leave me. You know, it was that, my very small mistake. But it was there. And I went, you know, I should have left that guy another $10. Because, again, I mean, it's hard. It's hard. When you're a working person now, it's hard. So my advice, if you can do it.
Starting point is 00:42:07 I mean, if you're living day-to-day, then you can't. But if you can do it, 20%, up from 15. It used to be 15. Now, interestingly enough, when I was in England, what was it, last weekend or the weekend before, anyway, the weekend before, there, they had the tip in now, and it's 13%. So I kicked a few pounds to the servers. They were all from Eastern Europe. Nobody was English. And they were nice, and I could sell.
Starting point is 00:42:41 And they were so grateful. So they get 13 built into the chain. and I kicked them on that. So I felt good about that. But my new philosophy is tipping 20%. Right? That makes sense. I think that's fair. We're all in this together. You don't want to help everybody if you have a little extra money. It's good to be generous with it. And that is the final thought. That is no spin news. Thank you very much for watching and listening on our hundreds of radio stations this evening. And we'll see you again tomorrow.
