Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the NOSFIN News Monday, December 12, 2020, stand up for your country. Senator Charles Schumer is the most dangerous man in America. That is the subject. of this evening's talking points memo. Charles is indeed in charge. The Senate majority leader has no rival. The minority leader Mitch McConnell is old and not very effective. And President Biden will never go up against Schumer. So Schumer rules, as they say, say. Schumer rules. And I want to give you a little bit insight because I've known this guy for a long time. And he has changed completely because he's a man like Nancy Pelosi who loves power. Power is

everything. So Senator Schumer is 72 years old, 24 years in the Senate, four terms from New York, of course. One time he was a moderate Democrat, it was a guy that, you know, the Republicans could reason with. That's long gone. Now he is a staunch progressive, and I'm going to give you a few examples of the Chuck now and the Chuck then. Roll the tape. The only way we're going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace

immigrants, the dreamers, and all of them, because our ultimate goal is to help the dreamers, but get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here. Illegal immigration is wrong, and a primary goal of comprehensive immigration reform must be to dramatically curtail future illegal immigration. It's like Biden. It's exactly the same, okay? And I'll explain why that happened in a minute. But some other examples of him flipping and flopping. So, in a Senate floor speech, 2017, Chuck Schumer said, quote, Mr. President, the 60-vote bar in the Senate is the guardrail of our democracy. When our body politic is veering too far right or left, the answer is not to dismantle a guardrails or go over the cliff.

So he's sticking up for the filibuster in 2017. Now now, okay, now he says, how can we in good conscience allow? for a situation in which a Republican Party can debate and pass voter suppression laws at the state level with only a simple majority vote. So, no, filibuster loved it then, not now. Okay, that's two. All right, here's three, a raw nuke deal. All right, 2015, Schumer voted against the deal, opposed the deal, okay? Under Trump, Schumer wanted the deal. Same deal. Okay. I'd go on and on and on and on. Now, the progressive left bought Schumer. What does that mean? They bought Pelosi and they bought Biden, too. That means that the massive amount of money flowing into the Democratic Party comes from people like George Soros, Mark Zuckerberg, the social media, Titans, Hollywood. And I mean massive amount of money. And they go not to the individual people, Schumer and Pelosi. It goes to Political Action Committee.

but the political election committees, all right, pretty much dictate what the Democratic Party's policy is going to be. And Schumer and Pelosi and Biden, they don't fight it anymore. And they didn't really fight it. But there wasn't this organized financial cabal even eight years ago than there is today. So they bought them. And now they're going to do their bidding. So Chuck Schumer, Socialism? Sure. I call it eco-socialism. And it gets to my column that I wrote and filed yesterday and Bill O'Reilly.com. And I hope you all read these columns because they are germane to your lives. I'm trying to give you a protective blanket of what's to come or it may be come. So eco-socialism is using the fear of climate change to change the economy from capitalism to socialism. Again, socialism is a government runs the marketplace. It tells O'Reilly how much O'Reilly can earn. It tells you what you can do and not do in the marketplace,

what kind of car you can drive, what kind of heat you have in your house, whatever it may be. That's eco-socialism. Schumer's on board with that. Schumann's not going to fight that. Okay? So with all the power, and Schumer is just savoring the power. And, you know, when you say, well, is he a good senator? No.

He presided over the decline in New York City where he lives in Brooklyn. He got to know. He's done absolutely nothing to help with the crime, quality of life, taxes, nothing. He's a terrible senator. He's awful. But he's deeply ingrained in the Democratic machine which runs New York State. So keep your eye on Schumer, dangerous man, and that's a memo. All right, Joe Biden, big day for the president.

He went to the Toys for Tots event in Arlington, Virginia. That's all he did. Toys for Tots. Now, I like Toys for Tots. I was a TOTT once, and I liked to get toys. So I write choice for thoughts. That's all Biden did the whole day. Now you say, oh, that's like Pharaoh, O'Reilly.

He probably had meetings. If he had any meetings, it would have been on the schedule. I got the schedule. It's choice for thoughts. So back in the real world, okay, the economy is crushing Americans. Most Americans know it, but they don't seem to care based upon the midterm election vote. So American households, and this comes from Friday's Federal Reserve, report have lost $7 trillion in wealth over the first three quarters of this year.

That is the worst decline since the Great Depression. Seven trillion dollars of household wealth. Our assets have vanished in the first three quarters of 22. The stock market is down 25% year to year. Real wages are falling 3% at this point. and that might get worse. So that's what we're looking at. We're looking at a guy, a president, diminished, no doubt,

who really didn't do much every day, and then $7 trillion of personal wealth, personal wealth, vanishes because of losses in the markets, because of higher prices, because of home valuations falling, whatever it may be all right now think about it not since 1929 has this happened but you'll never hear about it on the corporate media and the cables they don't care it's way too sophisticated for them they're out trying to solve the iaho murder okay yeah seven trillion dollars of personal wealth disappears ah okay it's big trust me all right let's bring you

and a guy who knows all about economics. His name is John Hartley. He is a research fellow with the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity coming on from Palo Alto, Belly of the biggest California. So what I want to know, Mr. Hartley, is, I don't know if you have a family or, but let's pretend that you are a working class guy, three kids, Palo Alto, one of the most expensive places in the universe, and you're looking at a diminishing asset situation. What do you do? It's a great question. You know, one, I think you're totally right, Bill.

The economy is sort of a house that's on fire right now, and a lot of people aren't willing to admit this, surprisingly while people are suffering, you were seeing some highest inflation since the 1980s, some of the highest interest rates. And as you mentioned before, wages aren't growing fast enough to keep up with inflation. That's like a 7% and 8% right now. I think one, if you do have a job, you know, one, actually bargaining to get that wage raise,

making sure that your wages are moving up, at least in line with inflation. It's a terrible, terrible tax. in many respects. On the sort of saving side of things, there's a few things that people can do and some things that sort of exist for, you know, mom and pop type investors

to deal with inflation. One of those things is iBonds. Eye bonds essentially give you returns that move in line with inflation. And these are something that the U.S. Treasury puts out you, can actually buy them at the U.S. Treasury's website, treasury.gov, and there's a cap you can only buy, there's such a good deal that you can only buy up to $10,000 of them in a given year.

There's some people that are suggesting that maybe we're already at the bottom of this current stock market decline. And some people are saying that bonds are looking more attractive to given that bonds have sold off a lot. So if families have sort of suffered declines recently, I think one, I think adage too, is at the very least holding on and maybe not selling out of those, you know, to the extent that you can. Obviously, you know, if people need the money and liquidity, that's another story. But in terms of sort of thinking about, you know, capital market expectations going forward, where we are right now, it's very possible that we're sort of close to the bottom. And so hanging on or if you have dry powder on the sidelines, putting money in now may be the good time to do that. Okay, let me stop you there. We have recommended here the eye bonds that you talked about.

A lot of people don't have 10 grand to invest, but if you do, that at least will keep you even with the inflation when you get that interest flowing back to you. The second thing is that a lot of Americans are helpless. They don't have any say in the marketplace because they can't go in demand a raise from the boss. of us. I say, no, we're not making as much money or as times are tight and we're not going to give you the raise. So they've had to take what they can get. But I always say to people, look, the more money you can save, I'm not buying any stocks at the moment. I'm not going to speculate because I don't see a good 23 coming for the federal government. I think it's going to

be tremendous turbulence with the Biden administration, with these investigations of the FBI, of Joe Biden himself and his son Hunter, is just going to be turbulence after turbulence after turbulence. And it's obvious to me, as an American citizen, that Joe Biden can't govern. He just can't, all right? So I'm not buying anything. I'm basically saving, saving, saving, saving, mount, mount, mount, mount. And then I'm conducting a one-man jihad against price gouging. And I'll have a little bit more after we talk with you about that. I don't care. It doesn't matter to the money. It doesn't matter to me. But if you're going to gouge, and believe me, that's happening everywhere. People are gouging now. Oh, everything's up. So I'm going to slap this on them when they don't have to. Or am I wrong? Well, now, I mean, you know, high price increases, you know, and price gouging is always, you know, what people call price gouging has always been a controversial kind of practice.

And, you know, I think, too, you know, even a lot of producers see their costs go up a lot, too. It's hard to know exactly, you know, to what degree people, you know, corporations or businesses. No, but I'm not talking about it. I'm talking about pizza places, delis, you know, you know what they're doing. But let me ask you one more thing. People are working. If you want to work in America, you can work and you can make a decent buck. And I think that is what is holding back the anger.

So we didn't see the anger in the midterm elections. The Republicans didn't do as well as they thought they were going to do. We don't see a lot of growing anger against Joe Biden because people are working. Is that a false sense of security they have because they have a job? Well, no, I mean, it could be the case that, you know, in six months' time, many of those people don't have a job. The Fed's been raising rates so quickly for so long, or for over a year now, it's been one of the fastest rate tightening cycles in a while. And it could, you know, we know that monetary policy in terms of how it impacts the labor market typically comes out a bit of a lag. And, you know, we're already starting to see some layoffs, especially in the technology sector around here in Palo Alto or in Silicon Valley.

And it's, you know, it's totally possible that this could spill over to other sectors, including manufacturing and retail. So nobody should be counting on their job. They should be trying to protect themselves because we just don't know what's going to happen in 23. Would that be an accurate statement? Yeah, I think that's a good assessment. Okay, John. We really appreciate you coming on. Thanks very much.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. 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. 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. All right, let's get to Twitter and the latest. This was dropped on Saturday. You know, holiday shopping and people don't know. So the first thing that was dropped was that the overwhelming majority of political donations given by Twitter employees, all right? You see the data there, 18, 20, and 22, 96, 98, 99 were given to Democrats.

Okay, so that's true. And that means that Twitter before Musk was an activist company. They're all the same. Everybody who worked there was the same. And so the activism was on the part of the Democratic Party and the left. You add to that Zuckerberg who gave $400 million to get Biden elected. Staggering, just think about $400 million for a moment. One man and his wife gives that money to try to elect a president, and they were successful.

$400 million. That's Facebook. So you get Twitter, you get Facebook. You go over to Google, and it's the same thing. All right? Overwhelming majority of employees and managers, everybody is left. Now, that is a – that concentrated power. is almost impossible for the Republicans to overcome, particularly if people don't know about it.

So Musk, what he's done, and boy, they hate him now, the progressive left hates him. He basically came in and he said, look, I'm out running Twitter this way. All right, we're going to have a fair operation, whether or not that happens. I don't know. But he's now exposing all of the things that he knows, all right, happens. under his predecessors. And he's fired, what, 70% of the Twitter staff of God? So to me, at this point in history, and this could change, Elon Musk is a truth teller. Because none of us knew how bad it was. He knew it was. We didn't know how bad. And then there's a whole

bunch of stuff on Trump, should you want to read it, about how they tried to ban him on January 6th and what they did or what they didn't do. That's up to you. All right. But it happened. And so the networks don't cover it at all. They just ignore it. And it's just, to me, it's over. The fat lady, can you say fat anymore? The Zoftig lady has sung, okay, because they can't come back from that. NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, And it can't come back. You can't just say, okay, now we're going to be fair. No. You don't cover a story of this magnitude.

I just, I'm sitting there going, so the story is only going to get bigger because as soon as the Republicans take over the House in January, the hearings are going to come up. The Twitter hearings are going to come up. the FBI and Twitter, the media and Twitter, and there are people, big, big people are going to be called in under oath in front of the Congressional Committee. It's Jim Jordan. I mean, that guy gets more cable time than Sean Hannity. Jim Jordan, you know him. And then Comer on the Oversight Committee, James Comer, who has an article in the Wall Street Journal op ed. today of saying, look, this is what we're going to do. Where's where we're going? Huge stories. Enormous stories going to unfold next year. Going to change everything. Okay. So I was on with Clay and Buck on the radio today. And they're arguing about whether Biden's going to run again

in 2024. He's not running. And I said, look, even if he wanted to run these hearings in the house, you're going to wipe him out. You're going to wipe Biden out. No way he's going to be able to run. I mean, the January 6th hearings did damage to Donald Trump. They did. They heard him. Did they take him off the map? No. He's still viable. But the same thing's going to happen to buy him on a double whammy. So this is no way. Okay, NBC News, he tracks another story. I just, okay, so when the trade was made, Brittany Griner for the Russian arms dealer, NBC reported that the Biden administration had a choice between Whalen, okay, the ex-marine, Michiganer was being held on espionage charges in Russia and Greiner. But that wasn't true. So if you read my column, and I hope you do on Bill O'Reilly.com, I explain how that deal went down, the whole deal, how it went down, the inside stuff.

Okay? So NBC reported, well, Biden could have taken Griner or Whalen and took Griner. It was false. Totally false. So they had to retract the very same day. Okay, Washington Post. Now, this is very strange. So the Washington Post has ignored Elon Musk and every other valid news story that makes the Biden administration look bad.

But it reports on December 10th, Saturday. Now, when you put something in the Saturday edition that sends a message, it's not as important as Monday through Friday. So they report that the Biden team outside the White House, is gearing up to smear, slander, slime the people who are going to investigate the president. And this, according to, and this is all according to Washington Post, I was shocked they did this story. This is a lawyer in L.A. named Kevin Morris, who paid Hunter Biden's tax bill, $2 million plus.

Okay. Morris paid it. So Morris is the guy who's organizing the hit team to go after Jordan, Komer, or anybody else, that is investigating Hunter and Joe Biden. So apparently they're well on down the road of organization. They hired Brock, David Brock, and you may know the name, the worst. Probably the worst human being in the country. He's horrible. Okay?

They've got media matters. They've got all the liberal organizations lined up. Bob Bauer, former White House counsel under Obama, he's going to have a leadership role on and on and on and on. The Washington Post just names the whole crew and said, this is a SWAT team that are going to go to the defense of the Bidens. And it's true. I knew that there was organizational stuff going on. Now, the key to this for the Bidens is to get the media on board, which will not be hard. But then you've got to go, why is the Washington Post outing them?

And I can't answer that question. Maybe they're nervous there. I know economics are bad at the Washington Post and the New York Times. Okay. Maybe they're nervous. And they said, yeah, maybe we got to do a few stories that. are not all pro-Biden. That could be, but I'm just guessing. Philadelphia. So in June 2020, two and a half years ago, a statue of Christopher Columbus was obscured by a giant box. There it is.

So Columbus, he was in the Marconi Plaza, South Philly, that's an Italian neighborhood, and the Italian-American community in 1876, 1876 gave the statute to the city of Philadelphia. Well, the zealots, the wokesters, put a big box around it. Okay? Well, Judge Mary Hannah Levitt said, you can't do that. You got to take the box off. So woke Philadelphia, crazy left, they're going nuts. But the judge's order has to be obeyed.

And that box got to be taken off. So it's interesting because Judge Levitt said the ruling was, if the city of Philadelphia disagrees with the message the statute sends, then it can add another statue or a plaque or whatever it wants. say whatever message the city of Philadelphia wants to say. That seems to be fair to me. So that story caught my eye, not reported anywhere. Okay. So in the interview we just had with the economics guy, I said, look, people have to fight back. You and me. So I know, I told you the pizza story last week where I went to his pizza place decades. And, and

And, you know, I used to paying $23, $24 for a small sausage pie, my standard order. Now it's $30 plus tax. No. Because you don't go $23 to $30 on pizza. It's dough, it's tomato sauce, it's cheese, and a little crumpled. No. So I go to another place for what they call a smoothie, all right? because I don't like to take the pills.

You know, you can take these capsules now with vegetables and fruit. I don't trust that. So the smoothie is just pure fruit. Too much sugar in it, I know, but I got to get fruit and vegetables into my system. So the smoothie was $12. Top end of that. You can get one for much less than that in your neighborhood, I'm sure. But okay, it's New York.

It's long. Island, $12. And, you know, I know I'm getting ripped off a little bit, but it's convenience. All right. I go in, I get it, I drink it. It's good for me, except for the sugar, and I'm okay. So I go in on Saturday, it's $13. Now, a dollar doesn't matter to me. So I look at the person and I said, oh, wait, wait. First it was $11, and that's what it's on the menu, okay? And then she said to me, well, $11 is for the medium, which I said, all right, I'll give you the 12, top end. Now it's $13.

I said, what do you mean? Last week it was $12. What has gone up? Bananas, peaches, what? Couldn't tell. price gouging. Price gouging. I said, okay, it's not the money, but it's the money.

You can't do it. I'm not buying them anymore. And believe me, when I tell you, there's not a lot of people in my neighborhood buying $12 smoothies. There's not. Because that's a lot of money to pay you for a drink, unless you're going out for a cocktail or something,

and I'm not. So this is a smart life tip. Some things you have to buy, right? You have to feed your family. You know you get ripped off. The cereal boxes are down 30% of what they used to give you. You know it. But you got to buy it.

You got no other alternative. But some things you don't have to buy. I got three other pizza places not gouging me. All right? So I'm going to them. I don't know where I'm going to find another smoothie place. But if I have to live without it, I'm going to live without it. Because once the people start to rebel on all fronts,

Not just on the price gouging financial front, but once the people start to say, no, no, all right, then things snap back. But until that happens, the gouge is on. And I could tell when I was talking to that person, and I wasn't yelling or anything, I was, I was going, what is it? Can you explain to me what this is? I knew that she was gouging, and she knew I knew. Okay, this day in history, 45 years ago, boy, December 12, 1977, Saturday night fever hits the theaters. Go. I can teach me my

I can do that. I can do that. Anyway, 23-year-old John Travolta, nominated for an Academy Award for that performance. I forgot that. that. All right. He's not 23 any longer. Saturday Night Fever was made for 3.5 million made 250 million at the box office. That's some profit, okay? But more than that, it ushered in the age of disco. The soundtrack of Saturday Night Fever sold 40 million copies worldwide, biggest selling

movie soundtrack except for the bodyguard with Whitney Houston. Okay. And then disco, swarms in from 1977 to 83 disco generated 10 billion dollars in record sales and clubs and everything if you're a boomer you remember okay you were doing this like that or something anyway that happened 45 years ago today okay we got a good mail segment and a final thought that I think you will like. I hope you will. We'll be right back. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays. Every morning, I'll bring you the stories that matter, plus the news people actually talk about, the juicy details in the worlds of politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between.

It's what you want from the New York Post wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast. Listen and subscribe on Amazon Music. Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. So let's get to the mail on the message board. Remember, if you're a Bill O'Reilly.com, premium member, there are message boards. Okay, so you discuss what you hear on the no spin news, what you hear I do on the radio, and you go back and forth, and it's fun.

And we monitor it. So we don't allow profanity, no definition. information, it's kid friendly, and it's good, lively, back and forth. Okay. And I take some of the mail from the message boards. D.K. Brittany Griner was a fortunate tool with the correct woke assets used by a weak president that needed a win no matter what the cost. No real American leader would ever do this trait. I disagree. I would have done it. Now, I wrote a column. Okay. entitled the deal. Bill O'Reilly.com has it, D.K., I hope you read it.

Because there was no choice unless you want to keep this woman in jail over there for 10 years. James, so a basketball player is more important than a Marine veteran. There was no chance to get James Whelan out of there. None. It was not an option that Putin presented.

And Putin called all the shots. Again, please read my column. George Pervarnik, Las Vegas. This weekend, Mike Pompeo, stated that we are a nation of laws. I disagree. Just look at the Biden, not enforcing laws concerning immigration. Okay. So Mr. Pompeo was talking in theory.

You know, on the books with the Constitution and federal and state and local laws, we are a country that is ruled by responsibility. You follow the rules or you get punished. But now the punishment is gone in many places.

And for whatever reason, the President of the United States says, I'm not enforcing immigration law. He could get impeached for that. Now, I don't know whether they're going to do that or not, but he could. absolutely valid absolutely

Raymond Vath Glenwood Springs, Colorado right outside of Aspen Hey Bill, I heard your story relating to nonstop crime. I'm a retired police officer the other day I was in the Kroger Market and I watched a bunch of urchins running around grabbing

donuts and pastries and eating them right in front of the store employees. Some of them even ran outside with stuff in their backpacks without paying So I asked one of the clerks, why put up with this? And she said, that's what management wants. That's true.

There's a lot of that going on. The management doesn't want the hassle. We'll let them go. If I owned a store, that wouldn't be happening. Kevin Donnie, New Hampton Bayes, as a passionate pizza purchaser, and a fellow Long Islander, your short account of the other night about inflation and its correlation of pizza, took the words right out of my mouth. I made a small clip of the segment, sent it to about a dozen of my friends and family.

Thank you for being the voice and staying in touch with the regular folks. Look, I am a regular folks. People, I haven't changed. I'm the same. You know, I'm not the same materially, but here, I remember how my parents struggled. Sarah Shaver of Valdez, North Carolina, I've finally become a premium member. Thank you, Sarah.

This is my favorite word. And I used it. You know I've used it before, but I love this word. Do not be a P-O-T-R-O-O-N. Right back with the final thought. Okay, here is the final thought of the day. As I mentioned before, go to Amazon and you punch you up killing the legends, okay, the lethal, dangerous celebrity. pop up and there will be a whole bunch of stuff there describing the book whatever but there'll be reviews i think there are 2,000 reviews on legends now and grow it now legends has a 92% favorable rating excellent rating from people who have read the book and bought from amazon that's higher than any of the other 11 killing books and i think jesus is a little teet-all okay so i'm

I'm going, what is it? I never expected this to be the highest. So a guy named Thomas Moody, he writes, quote, a transcendent book that looks at a unique view of death among the popular culture. I thought that this work combined a great combination of history and introspection, and I recommend it right up there with all the other killing installments in this series, unquote. Well, I appreciate that, Thomas. It's very nice of you to write that review. The book is more than people think it is. And when you think about our cultural history, what we're going through now with the pot and the kids, that's my message of the day, the pot and the kids. It all started with these icons, Presley, Lennon, and Muhammad Ali. So I hope you will check it out. Now, to make it affordable, because we know every book, every movie, every

product is way down because of the inflation. So people don't have the money they used. Had two years ago when killing the killers is that. They don't have it. All right? So they're not spending. So we've done something that we hope will be very good for you. Put the three latest books, killing the mob, killing the killers, killing the legends in one group. And we're giving you $35 dollars off. Now, if you've read any or all, give them his gifts. If you haven't read them, then you're going to enjoy them, all three of them. They're all very different, but they'll all hold your attention. So we did this to basically give everybody a break. I'm not price gadget. All my prices are the same as it were last year, I think. And my staff will correct me

if I'm wrong, but I think we kept everything the same. And the final thing is we have all 12, killing books you've heard about the 12 days of christmas right my true love gave to me so let me give you a tip you don't want the swans running around the house that's not a good thing okay so the 12 days of christmas you give one killing book each day so no swans because the swans are kind of messy you want the swans what are they there's lords leaping you don't want lords leaping in the house Why do you want Lord's leaping in the front yard? That sends a message that's very, and it'll confuse the urchins. Hey, Ma, is Lord's leaping in the front yard?

You know what the Lord's leaping? All right, you've got to feed the Lord's, then you get to give them perks, and they might go on strike, and then the Lord's are going to frighten the swans. You don't want to get into this. All right, the 12 days of Christmas, you got the 12 days. killing books okay now just for creativity you should buy killing the legends just for that okay i will be here god willing the entire monday tuesday wednesday thursday cycle we got some got michel bachman i haven't seen her a long time on wednesday she's coming on up and uh we are on it for sure
