Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Monday, March 11, 2014, stand up for your country. So, as you know, I was in Florida over the weekend. I, maybe you didn't know that, but I told everybody on Wednesday, last Wednesday I'd be there, I was not here on Thursday. day. I did, however, due diligence. I watched every second of the State of the Union, and that I actually painfully watched the analysis on television afterward. And you know, I got a little frustrated because it's getting more and more apparent to me that the news agencies in America
Starting point is 00:00:51 have just fallen apart completely. And they don't care anymore about what is reality and what is propaganda. So tonight I'm going to break this down so every one of you will understand what actually happened in the state of the union address and afterward and how it affects you and your family. And that is the talking points memo. Okay. So President Biden last Thursday got through the address in a good way for him and his party, not for America. It was not in the state of the union it would dress. It was a campaign speech. And he got through it. And we know that because immediately afterward, in about 24 hours after, $10 million rolled in to the Democrats. All right. So the Democratic stalwart's were happy with
Starting point is 00:01:51 Biden's presentation. I got a bunch of email from liberal acquaintances. and they were very happy with what Joe Biden did because it gave the Democrats hope. If he had faltered, as I analyzed last week, then it would have been over. But Biden got through it. Now, did he get through it with style? No.
Starting point is 00:02:18 He was far too aggressive, far too partisan, didn't admit any mistakes, which is almost impossible to believe, but he didn't. Okay, because he was playing to his own party. He wasn't talking to people in the Republican Party or independents. He was talking to Democrats. And he was going, look, I can do this. I can handle this.
Starting point is 00:02:39 I got this is the cliche. Okay. So it was stunning, but Mr. Biden believes in his heart that he is a fantastic president, that he's one of the greatest presidents this country has ever seen. He believes that, and nobody's going to change his opinion. And his wife believes it, and the sycophants around him in the White House, they don't believe it, but they say it. And the press props him up.
Starting point is 00:03:15 But in his own mind, Joe Biden thinks he is the greatest president. Jimmy Carter did too, interestingly enough. There were very few failures as president. presidents who thought they were failures, right? Herbert Hoover didn't think he was a failure. I basically go, whoa. All right, so you know, it's important you know the mindset that it was in.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Again, he did not admit any mistakes whatsoever. No humility, none. And I wrote in my column on Sunday, what does Joe Biden and Donald Trump, what do Joe Biden and Donald Trump have in common? Neither one of them will admit a mistake ever, and that is the truth. I'll read a letter later on that scolds me for saying that, but I say the truth. Now, the most interesting part of this State of the Union address, which was almost entirely propaganda and socialism, and it was.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Socialism, I'll get to that, was when Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green, a Republican, began heckling the president. the president. Go. Lincoln, Lincoln Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That's right. But how many of thousands of people being killed by legal? Appalling, but not for the reason you might think. He doesn't know who Lincoln is. All right? And that goes back to the fact that he cannot absorb information, go by. He doesn't really know who she is.
Starting point is 00:05:04 It's not a real thing to him. So it's Lincoln Riley because he heard something somewhere. That's number one. He makes the mistake of calling undocumented aliens illegal. Okay. Because he doesn't understand that the woke culture has now banished the words illegal alien. It doesn't quite get that, right?
Starting point is 00:05:33 Because they didn't tell him that before he went to the speech. But the worst thing is, this statement from him, by an illegal, that's right. But how many thousands of people are being killed by legals? That means by Americans. This is fifth grade stuff, pointing to other bad behavior. to justify your bad behavior or whatever you want to do. Now, I've said this, what, a thousand times? You don't justify bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior.
Starting point is 00:06:07 That's fifth grade stuff. So when I heard that, I went, you know, the man is a simpleton. And I'm not using that in a disrespectful way. He's a simpleton. He cannot grasp the seriousness. of the murder of Lake and Riley. He cannot grasp it. If he could, he would have called a family.
Starting point is 00:06:33 It's as simple as that. He didn't call a family. Just like he didn't go to East Palestine when the train went off the track. He didn't go. He doesn't care. If he cared, he would have closed the border three years ago. He doesn't.
Starting point is 00:06:50 You know, when I say that, people are, oh, Riley, you're partisan, you're this, that the man does not care okay you how hard is it to have your people set up a call with the riley family how hard is that it's not hard okay so I was horrified by that that whole thing and then predictably Nancy Pelosi goes on television go now you should have said undocumented but I that's not a big thing okay what's the big thing? I actually wasn't even going to ask about that.
Starting point is 00:07:28 I was just going to ask more about the moment, but you do think that he should have said undocumented? That wasn't going to be my question. Well, we usually say undocumented. He said illegal. I don't think it's a big deal. Okay. I don't think it's a big deal.
Starting point is 00:07:38 But more broadly. Because I think his focus was on the sympathy for the family. No, it wasn't. If he was sympathetic, the family, would have called him. And the woman at CNN, Dana Bash, should have just said that. But never in a million years, which, she'd say that, Dana Bash, ever. What's a point of having a television news operation? Okay, so Allison Phillips is the mother of the slain Lake and Riley. She posted this on the internet.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Biden does not even know my child's name. It's pathetic. If you're going to say her name, even when forced to do so, at least say the right name. And I should. share um i share miss phillips's disappointment okay um it's to me it's very clear but not to my very intelligent liberal friends because they don't want to believe that biden is a simpleton that biden doesn't care they don't want to believe it and no matter how much evidence you present they're not going to Now, the second part of the speech that was disturbing to me is the socialism. So Biden wants to raise the corporate tax from 21%, where it is now, to 28%, because the corporations have to pay their fair share.
Starting point is 00:09:10 How many times, how many years has this been going on in the fair share stuff? So that's not going to get through unless the Democrats win both houses, which they could. And Biden's reelected. But if it gets through, guess who's going to pay the 7% hike in corporations? You and me. So if you want to buy a car, General Motors is going to pass that tax hike onto the consumer. That's how it works. Biden doesn't know that.
Starting point is 00:09:41 He's not smart enough to know it. But all of this fair share BS, and that's what it is, I mean, I run three corporations. I pay an enormous amount of tax. so much tax that if I didn't feel I had an obligation to you, I'd pack it. It's not worth it. That's how much tax I pay living in New York. It's taken more than 50% when you add it all up. And it's clear to me that if Biden is reelected, this country will go on a fast track to socialism,
Starting point is 00:10:18 particularly if the two houses of Congress go Democrat. That's what they want. And what is socialism, so you know, to your friends, the government runs the economy. They call all the shots. That's what it is. And that's a memo. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets.
Starting point is 00:10:41 And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and 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. 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. 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.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Please call 866-326-55-7576 or text bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-3-2-6-5576 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-new-new-post-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new-new podcast, Podforce 1. Every week I'll sit down for candid conversations with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, lawmakers and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce 1 with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an
Starting point is 00:12:21 So the president gives an address to a left-wing group, National League of Cities in D.C., then he goes up to New Hampshire for a campaign event. And that's what he is, 75% of his time between now and November 5th, it's going to be spent on campaigning. Not all presidents do it, but he doesn't work anyway, so that's what's going to be. Now, after, the day after the State of the Union, Friday, he goes to Philadelphia, Biden. And he's right back to where he was before the State of the Union. Two unbelievable gaffes. Roll the first one. I'm Pennsylvania. I have a message for you. Send me to Congress that I can support this right. I promise you we take back Congress. We will restore Roe v. Wade as the law of the land.
Starting point is 00:13:17 It's just a bunch of you. Send me to Congress. And he's going to restore Roe v. Ways the law alone? He's not. Even if the Democrats voted it in Supreme Court, we said, we already told you. It's legal. You can't pass in the legal law. We're the final word. He's so stupid. And then people, oh, yeah, that's right. We'll restore Roevey Wade. It's a bunch of morons. Okay. Second one. Go.
Starting point is 00:13:47 We cut the deficit. and we added more to the national debt than any president in his term in all of history and under Donald Trump. These guys talk about, oh. Too many corporations raise their prices and pad the profits charging you more and more for less and less. We added more to the national debt. Yeah, you did. You finally told the truth, but you botched it because you wanted to blame Trump for doing that.
Starting point is 00:14:16 But you are the biggest spending president of American. history by far on a proportional basis after three years. Now, I got a bunch of letters and I did hear this on talk radio. I think I heard on TV that Biden was on Adderall when he gave his state of the union address. That's a stimulant. Okay. You can't say that as a fact. you can have an opinion that might have happened, and it certainly might have happened. I told a big liberal broadcaster last night who was ranting and raving about this. You can't say he did not take a stimulant before he gave that speech. You can't. You don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:03 But on the other side, you don't know if he did. So people stating these things as facts are misleading you. All right, polls, ABC News poll. One question. Who do you trust do a better job leading in the United States? Biden, 33%, Trump, 36%. Pretty close. Neither 30%.
Starting point is 00:15:28 That's a pretty big number. But it's going to come down to Biden or Trump. So you've got to make your call. Then there is the Gallup poll. They have three questions. Do you think leaders of other countries respect Joe Biden? respect him 37? No, don't respect him. 58. Wow. No opinion 5. Second question. On the whole, would you say you are satisfied or dissatisfied position in the United States in the world?
Starting point is 00:15:58 Satisfied 33, dissatisfied 65. In general, how do you think the United States rates in the eyes of the world? Favorably 42, unfavorably 57, no opinion 1. I think the last one is dead. on. I think that most countries in the world do not have a favorable opinion of the USA, primarily out of jealousy, because we live so much better than every place else. I mean, not every place. Switzerland lives very well, but most other places. A lot of jealousy. All right, so let's go to Trump. He goes to Georgia, Rome, and he meets with the family of Lake and Riley. All right. And here's what he said.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Go. Joe Biden is no remorse. He's got no regret. He's got no empathy. No compassion. And worst of all, he has no intention of stopping the deadly invasion that stole precious. Lakin's beautiful American life. All true.
Starting point is 00:17:05 In my opinion. So Donald Trump met with Allison Phillips. We referenced her before. Jason Riley, Lakin's father, and three siblings, all right? And it was nice of him to do it. It was a smart political move it well. They met backstage before that speech. The guy arrested Jose Ibarra 26, deny bail.
Starting point is 00:17:32 He's still in Georgia. Now, the final thing on this is that the state of Georgia, which went for Biden in 2020, will now go for Trump. I guarantee that. So Trump has got that state because of this situation. ABC News, which is a leftist operation, not as bad as NBC, but it's left. Their top correspondent is George Stephanopoulos. You know him. Good Morning America. He got into a little spat with Republican congressman woman, Nancy Mace. Go. You've endorsed Donald Trump for president. Donald Trump has been found liable for rape by a jury. Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that rape by a jury. It's been affirmed by a judge. It was not a criminal court case,
Starting point is 00:18:23 number one, number two. I live with shame. And you're asking me a question about my political choices, trying to shame me as a rape victim. And I find it disgusting. And quite frankly, E. Jean Carroll's comments, when she did get the judgment, joking about what she was going to buy, it doesn't, it makes it harder for women to come forward when they make a mockery out of rape. She kicked his butt. I mean, she kicked little George all over the place. And she's referring to that this woman got all this money and she was yucking it up about how she's going to spend it. But the important point is that Trump was found guilty in a civil court, not a criminal court.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Okay. And the reason that Ms. Mays brought that up is, because the civil court, the rules are much more lax. So Trump was convicted on hearsay, like other people who weren't involved. Well, I heard this. Ms. Carroll didn't even know what year it happened. When I saw that, that was the giant red flag for me.
Starting point is 00:19:32 I will tell you, and this is absolutely true, there are 10 states in the union that would have convicted Trump on this civil charges. And 40 where the juries would not have. And New York is one of the ten.

So now let's turn to the inside Republican situation. As you know, I'm an independent. I'm not
Starting point is 00:20:58 associated with any party. Don't really follow the party politics very much unless someone inside either party starts to hurt you. Then I rapidly get involved. The Republican Party is in the middle of a changeover from Ronna McDaniel, who is the chair of the RNC. And now, as of last Friday, you have Michael Watley and Lara Trump, who is President Trump's daughter-in-law. She joins us now from Washington. So when I heard first that you were going to do this, I went, why would anybody want this job? I mean, I know you want your father-in-law to be back in the Oval Office, that's obvious. But you have a family, you got kids, and this is like 24 hours a day, this never stops, right?
Starting point is 00:21:53 Well, you're right, Bill. I mean, to be honest with you, it's not a job that I ever wanted or a job that I ever really thought I would pursue, but I also never thought that our country would be in such dire straits, and we truly are. I think you really have seen us in a space in America where if this election, coming up, on November 5th goes the wrong way and Joe Biden ends up with four more years in the Oval Office. I really don't know what kind of country we have on the other side of that. So yeah, I have two young children. They're four and six years old. I have a lot of things that I'm busy with all the time, but nothing is more important to me than ensuring that their future is set up well
Starting point is 00:22:30 and that every American child gets to grow up in the same America I got to grow up in. So when my father-in-law called and he said, would you do this? To be honest with you, I thought about it and I had to think long and hard about it. And then I said, you know what, if I'm the best person for this job and this is the best use of my time over the next eight months, absolutely, I'm a yes. Okay. What does the RNC actually do besides raising money? I mean, we know you raise money and you're going to have to raise a lot of it in the next eight months to compete with the Democrats, which, you know, that's a money donating machine over there. But what else does the RNC do beside raising money?
Starting point is 00:23:10 Well, look, you don't win the presidency without the support of the Republican National Committee. The reality is this is a committee that's been around so long. It's obviously one of the two major political parties in this country. And they have an apparatus across the country in every state, in every district around the United States of America. And so once you have a nominee named, which obviously Donald Trump is the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party, you need the apparatus of the R&C to help all across the country in different districts. You've got to be specific now. I mean, okay, to help, all right, got it.
Starting point is 00:23:48 But how do you do that? I mean, one of the reasons that Donald Trump lost to Joe Biden, to me, and I'm pretty, I've been around like a long time since U.S. grant, was that the Democrats were, were better organized in getting out the mail and ballots and all of this stuff. Okay. Yeah. So they mobilized more people to the polls than the Republicans did. And they did that in a variety of ways. They had a lot of money from Mark Zuckerberg, okay, hundreds of millions of dollars to hire people to go out. How is the RNC going to compete against that in November? Yeah. Well, the truth is, you're right, Bill. We have not been playing the game the same way. We have been playing checkers and the DNC and the Democrats
Starting point is 00:24:41 have been playing chess. We have to fight fire with fire. And you're right. As Republicans, we've had this notion for a long time. We're going to go out and I'll vote on election day. And it would be great if we had voter ID across the country. It would be great if we had paper ballots. We don't have those things. We know election day starts in some states months ahead of November 5th. We have to start talking to people on the Republican side of the aisle about early voting, about mail-in voting. But what does that mean? Does that mean you hire local people to do that,
Starting point is 00:25:12 like the Democrats do? What exactly are you going to do? Well, there's a whole host of different ways. First of all, messaging has to be go vote early. For a long time, we never told people that. We said, wait until election day. So the messaging is going to change. We are hiring people like legal ballot harvesters
Starting point is 00:25:30 all across this country to go everywhere you legally can and harvest ballots. What does that mean, though, harvest ballots? Does that mean convince people to vote a certain way? Is that what harvest about? Not on the Republican side. Perhaps on the Democrat side, they may help you fill it out. What ballot harvesting is is literally going to an area where you can have a contingent of people,
Starting point is 00:25:53 a group of people. You take their ballots and then you take it to a designated location and turn them in. They bring their ballots to the VFW Hall and then the RNC has somebody at the hall who takes those ballots physically and brings them to the voting precinct. That's what ballot harvesting is. And you're going to do that now in a much more aggressive way than you did it four years ago. Is that what I'm hearing? That's exactly right. We're going to turn out low propensity voters. These are people who maybe only vote in one out of every four presidential elections, but every time they will vote Republican. We're going to target these people using a bunch of
Starting point is 00:26:31 different software and AI technology that perhaps we hadn't had in the past. But I think the most important thing we have to do is protect the vote. Election integrity is something that every person in this country. Well, how do you do that, though? How do you protect the vote? Well, look, we have a whole host of different lawyers that are going to be spread out across the country. Some of these are paid. We are also asking for volunteer attorneys to be in every polling location.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Polling places? Because you know it's against the law to politic at polling places. So you're going to have people observing. We can have eyes on the ground. Legally, you can have poll watchers. We will have trained poll watchers. This is something the R&C has never done. These are people who can actually count the ballots going in, ballots going out,
Starting point is 00:27:18 handle them, and really assure people that every single legal vote in this country is counted. Because, Bill, if we don't have election integrity, nothing else ultimately matters. You're going to be hiring a lot of people, Lara. We sure will. You got to compete. Our final question. one of the reasons, and you know that I've known your father-in-law a lot longer than you
Starting point is 00:27:38 have. Yes. One of the reasons he chose you, and I could be wrong, I'm just guessing he never discussed it with me, is because you are articulate and a good fundraiser and they can throw you out into Kansas and Montana
Starting point is 00:27:54 to raise money. And that's what you're going to be doing a lot of it. Am I right? Oh, I certainly will be raising a lot of money. And I think the reality is there are people across this country who maybe at one time donated to the RNC and have said, look, I don't really know if I trust this organization over the past five or six years or so. And I think one of the things that has been my focus is to ensure that every penny of every dollar goes to the causes
Starting point is 00:28:22 that people who donate care about. Of course, electing Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, but all the way down, we've got to expand our lead in the House, take back the Senate and make sure we have America First Patriots running for all these positions and supporting them. That's what I'll be focusing on. Well, you're going to be one busy woman. I can say much. I sure will. If you run into Jeffrey Katzenberg, who's doing what you're doing on the other side,
Starting point is 00:28:45 I mean, he's the big money man for Biden. You're going to say anything to Katzenberg? Are you going to give him a little jab? What are you going to do? I would be very nice and very pleasant because you always want to be nice to people when they're on their way out. Okay. Larry Trump, thank you very much to take your time.
Starting point is 00:29:00 We really appreciate it. You got it. Okay, let's turn to the Oscars. You know, Hollywood's in trouble. You know that. The motion picture industry melting down. People don't go to the movies very much anymore. And I knew that Oppenhire was going to win because it's a legitimate good movie.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Had to win. In the presentation of the show, very little politics until Donald Trump tweeted something nasty about Jimmy Kimmel, that gave Kimmel an opening. I don't know why Donald Trump does this stuff. You know, if you're going to do it, do it after the show, don't give Kimmel, you know, that kind of a platform. Anyway, the Pinhead Hollywood stars, most of whom know nothing, were very subdued in their political presentations during the show, okay, which was refreshing. I predicted Oppenheimer's victory on August 10th last summer. But Hollywood needs this movie because it's a genuine movie.
Starting point is 00:30:08 And the performances, Sillian Murphy, the lead, he's going to win best actor. Robert Downey Jr. is going to win Best Supporting Actor. And I went on and on, but I was right 100%. It's Killian Murphy. mistake I made. I should have known that because it's Celts, not Boston Celtics. It should be Boston Celtics. That's the way it's pronounced in Gaelic. But anyway, I was happy to see Oppenheimer win. Downey is a solid guy, tremendous actor. Murphy deserved it, in my opinion. But Hollywood has got, you know, they're almost over the cliff. They have alienated most traditional
Starting point is 00:30:49 people in this country with their far left politics, and they've got to bring it back a little. little bit and that's what this was all about. All right, Smart Live, you don't want to go to the movies once you read some books. You know, people don't read much anymore because of the machines because of their handhelds. But I've read three books recently that I'm going to recommend to you. First is the Blues Brothers. This is about John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, the early days of Saturday Night Live. I'm interested in that cultural part of my life. And it was a good book. Whipped through. Okay. Second one is Blood Money by Peter Schweitzer, Investigative Reporter. it's hard to read this book in a sense of so many facts, but it's interesting. Schweitzer alleges
Starting point is 00:31:31 that the Biden family has received $31 million from the Chinese, $31 million, far more than everybody else has estimated. So I'm plowing through that. And then for St. Patrick's Day, plentiful country, the Great Potato Famine Making of Irish, New York. This is personal to me because my ancestors came over from County Cabin to Brooklyn, and this is a very vivid book, tough book, but if you really want to know about the Irish and St. Patrick, it's a plentiful country, Tyler and Binder. All right, that is the smart life.
Starting point is 00:32:08 If you read, you're going to be smart. Okay, so smart life goes in. This day in history, March 11, 1997, Paul McCartney was knighted, by Queen Elizabeth. Roll the tape. Wonderful, glorious day for us all. Proud to be British, wonderful day, and it's a long way from a little terrace in Liverpool. Okay, that was 27 years ago. McCartney, I think he's 81 now. Some interesting facts about that. Paul McCartney's wife at the time, Linda, could not go to the 90 ceremony because she was fighting breast cancer, which killed.
Starting point is 00:32:50 her about a year later. McCartney himself is worth $1.2 billion. I think he's worth more than that, but that's the estimate. His people never get that right, but he's one of the richest entertainers in the world. Still tours. His last show is in Rio de Janeiro in December. I met him twice. First time I met him. I've never told the story before, but it's pretty good. So I'm at a soiree put together by Barbara Walters, who was a friend of mine. And Barbara Walters's cousin is married to Paul McCartney. And so McCartney, and this was at Top of Rockefeller Center, and Top of the Rock, they call it at a very she-she place. So Barbara goes, oh, Paul McCart, Sir Paul is coming. I go to Barbara. I'm not calling anybody, sir. Okay, I'm a son of liberty here.
Starting point is 00:33:42 I'm not, I don't do that sir business. So she looks. to be and I go, but I'll call him Mr. McCarty, whatever, but not going to be any sir. So he gets off the elevator with his wife, and she's introducing him all around. And I, you know, McCarty, I'm not, you know, a lot of people are very excited. I was, brings him over, and I'm standing there. And I don't think I'm obnoxious, but some people do. So Barbara goes that this is Bill O'Reilly. He looks at me, clearly has no idea, okay?
Starting point is 00:34:18 And he goes, how are you, Phil? P-H-I-L. So I look at him and I go, I'm doing well, Ringo. I thought it was funny. And I laughed, and I said, no, I feel O'Reilly. Sometimes I'm on Barber's show, that kind of thing. Anyway, Paul McCarty knighted 27 years ago today, back with the mail, and a final thought.
Starting point is 00:34:45 okay let's get to the mail we got mary jane concierge member and we really encourage you to look into that program and insurance policy for your life at a very small price get a free book i mean we want to help you we like you guys uh mary jane your announcing state of the union uh was spot on however i don't understand why you mentioned that former president trump never admits a mistake didn't trump get enough bashing during the speech i wasn't bashing Trump. I'm just saying that's what he's got in common with Biden. And that's a truth. I got to tell the truth. I mean, it's a compulsion that I have. Mark, if Biden gets reelected, nothing will get done. Nothing. If Trump gets elected, he will step on everyone who's in his way. It can also be
Starting point is 00:35:37 our first criminal for president. Should be a good time either way. Okay, I mean, look, 30% of the public doesn't want them. Either of them, maybe it's higher than that. I mean, I get it, but if you look at how Trump governed the country in his four years, light years better than what Biden's doing. Light years. Dusty, I'll go ahead and say it. Anyone who would vote for Biden does not have the best entry of our country in mind. Not only the country, but themselves. You're going to vote for Biden. You're voting against your own self-interest because socialism, as I said, is going to come roaring down the track. And that means you're going to be paying more money to state and federal government. You want to do that? Jeffrey Link, Wyckoff, New Jersey, will migrants be permitted
Starting point is 00:36:23 to vote and be considered in the census? Yes on the census. No on the vote. Some of them will sneak it, but it is against the law for non-American citizens to vote.

We'll check it. Sue Alexander, Fort Wayne, Indiana, wants to teach her old as a teacher, killing the witches, was your teaching voice, O'Reilly.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I took a tour in Salem with a group as a guest of the Smithsonian Training Center. It was enlightening and somber, but your book is so clearly explicit that I found it very interesting. That's killing the witches. So still doing very well. Look at that killing the witches. After all these months, six months. My God. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:55 We have a new product we'd like to tell you about. We're going to put out themed mugs. The first one is self-reliance. And I'm going to have like every three months a different theme. So, why I'm doing this is if you believe in self-reliance, these are great gifts to younger people, but anybody, that self-reliance is something that should be encouraged. All right, these are made in America, they'll last you forever, and we have, we're going to have a bunch of themes, like every three or four months, a different theme that we believe
Starting point is 00:38:33 in on the month, self-reliance.

Write to me, Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, name and town, so we've got lots people forget the name in town. Gotta have it.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Got to know you're a real person. If you wish to O Pine. Back with a final thought about my Florida trip in a moment. All right, here is the final thought of the day. I always liked to get down to Florida. If you know my history, I taught high school in Obolaca, which is a very tough neighborhood north of Miami. Way back in the Stone Age,
Starting point is 00:39:32 and I spent years doing that in South Florida. Then I was based there when I covered the El Salvadoran War and the conflict in the Falkland Islands. Okay, so that was my jump-off point, Miami. I know South Florida as well as anybody knows it. So I love to go back, you know, and I'm based now in Palm Beach, because that's where a lot of my friends and business is. And so it was hopping over the weekend. But to tell you what, a lot of people say to me, hey, why don't you move down here? You'd save Buku money because we don't have the state.
Starting point is 00:40:10 And taxes don't have the state tax is zero. New York state tax is crazy. You have a lot more freedom. You do. You live in Florida. You have a lot more freedom, personal freedom than you do in New York. Florida is the third most populated state, California first. California's got 40 million.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Texas, 30 million. And Florida, 22 million. New York has 20. And losing. Okay? California is also losing. population. Florida's gaining, gained 8% over the last five years, okay? And the reason is, if you can handle the heat, it's, you've got more freedom, more opportunity, living costs
Starting point is 00:40:53 are lower, although the insurance is crazy in Florida. You guys living down there know that now because of all storms. But on Saturday, it was 87 degrees and 86% humidity. I keep, That, for my Irish metabolism, I was going to go to the Met Cardinal game up in Jupiter, but I couldn't go because it was so hot and our seats were not under a canopy. I could not sit there for two hours in that kind of a sun. Now, I know everybody's different. I mean, my assistant's been with me for more than 30 years. 87 degrees, she just can't get enough of that.
Starting point is 00:41:35 I get out there, I go, a little hot here. Now, I know I'm a sissy, okay, I'm just tough it up. But you've got to take that global warming, and that's my message of the day today, about how global warming is affecting you right now. And me too. So that's on bill o'Reilly.com. But global warming not only is impacting northern winters and the ice flow, but is getting hotter. down in the tropics. So March 9th, you're looking at 87, 86% humidity. That's pretty hot.
Starting point is 00:42:16 August, don't even mention it. And all the people that are, and I need tons of people down there, I go, they don't come out of the house in August and July, except that, you know. Anyway, that's the Florida situation. but I do respect the fact in Texas too, because I lived in Texas for two years, working at WFAA TV in Dallas. I do respect that the governments in these states, the most important thing to them is personal freedom. That's what's the most important in those states.
Starting point is 00:42:52 In New York, California, Illinois, Massachusetts, government rules, and you bet a total line. You better total line. that's a big difference same country okay uh as always uh we have uh tomorrow we're going to spend a lot of time on the robert her jo biden document testimony that should be explosive tomorrow so we hope you are with us you will get a fair look not a cherry-picked look but what goes on thank you for watching and listening on the radio to the no spin news we will see
