Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News for Monday, June 10, 2004, stand up for your country. We have a lot to tell you about this evening. One headline, there are going to be polls in the next two or three weeks. They won't matter because the debate is the, pretty much starting point for all relevant presidential race polling. That's on June 27th, as you may know. After the debate, the polls then take on a little bit more credibility. Right now, there's a lot of swirl going on about the Trump case in New York. But once people get a look

at side-by-side candidates, then I think the polling will be much more relevant. The conventions, the summer aren't going to matter at all. Republicans in Wisconsin, in July, Democrat, Chicago, August, not going to matter, unless there's violence in Chicago by the anti-Israeli protesters, and that could happen, because they're looking to put on a show. They might show up in Milwaukee with the Republicans, but I don't think so. I think they're going to go for the big platform, Chicago. But that would be the only thing of note in the convention. It's a foregone conclusion. We figured that Trump will name his VP before the convention. He has to almost do that. And then with that news out, not much left. So the Talking Point's memo this evening is about how the Internet is changing for the worse the way the presidential campaigns are run.

Let's call it the destruction of truth. So on May 29, Facebook, a troll, T-R-O-L, and that is a word that comes from Norway. Okay, you can look it up. The history of trolls are very interesting, but they call people who go on the Internet and cause trouble, troll. So this guy goes on there on Facebook, and he posts, quote, My cousin is a juror and says Trump is getting convicted. it. Thank you, folks, for all your hard work. Well, nine days later, the judge in the case, Juan Merchan, notified the prosecution and the defense of that post. It took nine days,

but Merchan said, look, I got to tell everybody what happened. Here's what Ben Chan say, quote, Dear counsel, today the court became aware, remember nine days later, of a comment that was posted on Unified Court Systems Public Facebook page to now bring to your attention. Okay. Right after that on, what was the date here, June 7th, okay, just a few days ago, the anti-Biden media went wild. You'll remember, the pro-Biden media didn't say much. A little on CNN, but not so much. But the anti-Biden media, it didn't say much. But the anti-Biden media, media, took it and ran with it. Problem was, the posting was a fake. There was no cousin, there was no alert, none of that. It was a deep fake. Now, that happens so many times.

And therefore, millions and millions of people, I would submit to you that even at this point, a lot of people who heard about that, still don't know. it was a fake. Because they're not tuned in that closely. Okay. So I could harpoon a lot of people here, but I'm not going to do that because it just doesn't get us anywhere. But one guy put the situation into context. See, that's all I ask. I'm going to tell you what we did with it after the sound body I play you, but all I ask is that you provide some context to what you're reporting off the net. Roll a tape. If it is true, and that's a big if it is true, it is grounds to vacate the conviction and order a new trial. I think, you know, what this judge needs to do is

appoint an independent and partial officer of the court to conduct an investigation. That may include It's a painting Facebook to identify who this person is who posted it. So that's an honest commentary, all right? He's skeptical up top, Jared. He says it's a big if. No problem. No problem with that at all. Okay?

If you contextualize what you're seeing. Now, I didn't cover it. Okay, if you were watching the NoSpin News, I knew from the jump, this didn't sound right. Now I'm bragging again. Okay. my experience, as a journalist, I have what they call a reporter's gut. I know when stuff is bogus, and you know I know, which is why you're here tonight, listening to me on TV and radio.

So we just ignored it, but we were aware that the story was being carried on the American media. it. Now, if I feel that somebody is being blatantly dishonest, then I go after that person. But this was just an example of how many media people in this country do not do their jobs well. It's as simple is that? You've got to check all this. You can't be lifting stuff off the internet and reporting it. You can't. I can't even lift stuff off the Associated Press or Reuters news services anymore. I got to check everything. Forget about the newspapers. Forget about it. I very rarely use that. Maybe once in a while the Wall Street Journal editorial page, because they're usually back up what they say, but it's really hard to be an honest journalist in this country

today. So the reason I'm doing this tonight is because the deception factor is huge. And you add it to the political campaigns, both of them, and just throw propaganda after propaganda to propaganda to propaganda. This bogus stuff about Trump demeaning U.S. trips buried in Europe, That didn't happen. I investigated it. It never happened. Okay, and yet the Democrats run with that all day long. Oh, he's going to be dictator on day one.

He said so. It's just a lie. He said he was going to overturn executive orders. Har, har, har, ha, ha, so that might be, I'm a dictator on day one. That's what he said. That was the context. Not I'm going to be a dictator on day one. But these people don't care.

The worst of all, their companies don't hold them accountable. Man, when I was coming up, I made a mistake, I took something that I couldn't back up. That was really serious. I could get fired. I saw people get fired doing that. And that's a memo. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. 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 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. Please call 866-326-5-76-55-76, or text bill to 99-88-99. Again, that's 866-3-26-5-7576, or text bill to 998899.

Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. All right, Joe Biden's schedule today has a June 10th concert. That should be pretty exciting. Another tough day at the office.

Hunter Biden trial update. So Hunter Biden did not take the stand. I didn't think he was going to take the stand because if you go there on the stand, just like Donald Trump and his business. records beef, the prosecutor can throw everything in the world at you. Some of them objections you'll be, but most, you know, and what do you want to do that? And if you state a falsehood or misstate something, that's perjury. Okay, so Hunter didn't. And everybody rested, and now the jury will come in fairly quickly. I'm not going to predict this. I thought

the Trump thing would be a hung jury as you, as I told you and I was wrong. so I don't know with these Delaware people. I do know it's a low-level beef, okay? But it should be enforced. You can't be a drug addict buying a gun. I mean, all of these anti-gun people screaming about, we shouldn't have any guns. A lot of them are on Hunter Biden's side.

Isn't that ironic? I leave Hunter Biden alone, but we don't want any guns. But Hunter can have one even though it's a crack hit. But the biggest theme takeaway of this trial, and I'm going to write my message of the day on it tomorrow, is that the defense of Hunter Biden is playing the addiction excuse. Give him a pass because he was a drug addict. Okay, and he didn't know.

He was a drug addict. He had a disease. I don't buy that. You know, Hunter Biden did evil things. He introduced people to crack Houtain and they got addicted to it. He introduced them to it. Court testimony. Okay? That's evil. He did horrible things. And now he said, oh, I was a drug addict, so I should be excused for all of them. No. No. And then his parents are out there, the president and Jill Biden, go, we're so proud of him for kicking it. Okay. All right. If somebody kicks an addiction, that's a positive. Maybe you could be proud of them. If I were,

a dad and my kids were addicted. I would be proud of them getting out of it. But that's not the headline. The headline is, if you get involved with this stuff, you're going to hurt people. So don't get involved with it. And if you hurt people, you have to be held accountable if you're addicted or not. Period. That's my take on that. All right, Donald Trump is doing a probation. This is just a standard New York thing. Virtually talking to probation people, they lay out all the stuff. He's sentencing is July 11th. I don't expect him to be confined in any way.

If he is, then the Supreme Court will jump right in. Trump is also talking to the Southern Baptist Convention to a group there. You know, he needs the evangelical vote. Interesting Trump's situation over the weekend with George Stephanopoulos, who is the highest paid ABC News person. Here's what is Sevanopoulos said. Go. It's going to be a challenge for those who are doing the debate in June. I mean, I think it's journalistic malpractice to do a live interview with President Trump on television.

You know, one of the former president's techniques is also simply to keep on changing the subject. I think that's something that has always been perilous, you know, a challenge for interviewers, but the same thing will happen in the debate. Yeah, and Biden'll do it too, Georgie. And journalistic malpractice to do an interview with Trump live on television, I've done dozens of them.

I never had a problem, ever. Not one problem ever. He dodged, I brought him back. Hey, you didn't answer the question. bring them back. Now, when you're president, you'd be a little bit more respectful because of the office, but before he was president, just Google or Riley Trump interviews. Wasn't hard. Okay, that's what I do to everybody. Not hard. Not journalistic malpractice. For somebody like you, George, who's rooting for Joe Biden, oh, you know, Trump is, he's going to, you know, he's not going to answer the questions.

he's going to change the subject. What do you think Biden's not going to change the subject? Come on. Jeez. All right, more than half of Biden's support to say the main reason they will vote for Joe is because they hate Trump. It's according to a CBS poll, just out. The question, what is the main reason you would vote for Biden over Trump among likely voters? mainly because I like Biden, 27%, mainly because Joe Biden is a Democrat, so that it's a party vote, 19%, mainly to oppose Trump, 54%. Whoa. And I know a lot of those people, not proportionally, but I know people in that category. And I go, look, don't vote.

Because if you vote or Biden and he wins, you're going to get hurt. You and your family are going to get hurt, big time. much more so than if Trump wins. So don't vote. If you can't pull a lever for the dawn, don't vote. For president, vote down, ticket. All right, the border latest, this is murky here. So on June 4th, President's order, President Biden, as you know,

issued an executive order, and it's a confusing order. It puts all this work on the Border Patrol people who can't do it. I'm not going to go over it again. But since that time, the Border Patrol says that arrests, they're not really arrests. They stop them. Most of these migrants actually go up to the Border Patrol agency. I want asylum. And then 24 hours later, they're in the country doing what they want.

Paid for it by us, the taxpayer. That's how it usually works. But it's down 20%. Okay. I don't know why. I'm trying to get the numbers here, but they're very hard to get. Because the Border Patrol can't do all this paperwork. as simple as that. But there are still thousands and thousands of migrants crossing the border

every day. Thousands. All right. Now, the ACLU says it's going to file a lawsuit against Biden's executive order because, quote from the ACLU, it would rush vulnerable people through already fast-track deportation proceedings sending people need a protection to their deaths. Wow. the ACU has not filed yet. Don't know why. They were jumping on it. Joining us now from Miami is a top-flight immigration lawyer. His name is Antonio Revella the third.

He is the third. Okay. I hope your dad and grandfather weren't lawyers. That would be too much to bear. I have some questions about this because you know the world very well. Number one, what is your vision? Say you're in charge. I'm putting Antonio Revella in charge of the southern border.

Who gets in? Who doesn't get in? Well, Bill, the problem is this, and I've been criticizing this from day one. What's happening is that people are coming through. They are being crossed. They're being processed to make sure that they're not criminals in their home countries, to make sure that they haven't taken terrorism routes to come here, that they're not terrorists. The problem is that when they show up at the border or any port of entry or they're even stopped

by a cops and support protection officer between borders, they're basically processed and let into the United States. What should be happening? And my wife asked me this the other night. She goes, do you want everybody coming in? And I said, well, you know, it's not a bad situation for immigration lawyers that have everybody coming in. But what they're supposed to be doing at the border if you don't have a proper visa to enter is you have to be processed for what's called credible fear. That means that when you express, I fear going back to my country, they have to have an asylum officer do a lengthy credible fear interview so that it is determined whether or not they truly have a credible fear of.

persecution in their home country. Right. But that's impossible for the border patrol to do on a daily basis. You cannot do it as you know. Now, at Miami International, if somebody flies in from Port of Prince and doesn't have the proper credentials, you might be able to do that. But you can't do it on a 3,000-mile border. And while they are looking for credible fear and all of that,

They release these people because they don't have the facilities to hold them at the border. As a result, under Biden, there has been more than 10 million foreign nationals released into this country. It's great. Now, what is wrong with what Trump did? Say, okay, we'll check you out. But while we're checking you out, you stay in Mexico. What's wrong with that? I think that's, it might happen again.

No, no, no. What is wrong with the return weight in Mexico policy? What? It's the same thing that is wrong with what UK's doing with asylum seekers, sending them to Rwanda. You are touching foot, you're landing in the United States, you're within our borders, and the law says that once you're here, you can ask for asylum versus credible fear. As far as the resources are concerned, the customs of border protection,

they don't conduct a credible for your interview. They need more asylum officers to sit down with everybody there. It's important. It's crazy. It is not possible. They don't have near, but you still haven't told me, sure, we will check out your asylum request. But meantime, you wait in Mexico. You still haven't told me why that's wrong.

That cut it down to Trump's last year to 800,000. from four or five million that we have now a year. Come on, counselor, look, from a humanitarian point of view. You're either trying to protect the country or you're not. And as you know, some of these migrants have caused death and destruction on our soil. Why should they wait here for their case to be adjudicated? That's a get into the USA free car.

You know it is. Because they're here. And as far as having them wait in Mexico, that is a factor that is used. And it is, it causes a deterrent to a lot of people. But once again, the law states that when you're in the United States, the law does not state where the asylum seeker has to go. The law does not say once you apply for asylum, you have to stay in the United States. It doesn't say they should be sent to Mexico either. No, it doesn't say anything about it.

So the president has a right by executive order, just as Biden did, Trump had to write. The law doesn't say you stay here, you get a bus ticket to New York or Miami. It's not, the law doesn't say that. It says, we'll process your request. Meantime, we're not going to let you run around this country. All right. You haven't convinced me that the remain in Mexico policy is a detriment at all. And I believe it is a positive for this country.

Now, ACLU. It's not a positive for everybody, though. I'm sorry, repeat? Well, look, it's a positive for most Americans if you believe the polls. Because they don't want this, and I'm going to give a poll right after our interview. 62% of Americans want to round up all migrants and ship them out, according to CBS on Sunday. That's a release poll on Sunday. So, there you go.

Now, ACLU. So it looks to me like they're just trying to find something to keep the open border going. Am I wrong? No. The ACLU is most likely going to argue that they shouldn't limit what's called CBP1 applicants. That's on the app where they make an appointment to present themselves at the border. They're going to say that you shouldn't limit it to 2,500 people over a period of 14 days. Now, the other issue that I wanted to mention earlier, what worries me is that people

are being let in without being processed for credible fear. We are going to create an underclass of millions and millions of more people that are in this country without being able to seek any kind of benefits. So the easy part for a lot of people is coming into the country. The hard part is how are they going to seek benefits? And what are the benefits they can seek? asylum or possibly getting married and I meet with clients every day and I tell them the easy part for you was entering the United States a hard part now is how can you get a benefit and asylum is very very difficult to get so if they were processed the way that they're supposed to be processed through credible

fear then we wouldn't have this issue the other issue with the with the Remain of Mexico program those are people that credible fear was found and now they have to appear before a judge. So now they wait in Mexico for that process. But the people come now are not being processed for that. They're not being processed. And that's what the open border Biden policy is. Let them in. And I'll tell you what's going to happen. And by the way, I appreciate you coming on. And if I had an immigration problem where we're trying to get somebody, I would hire you. I just want everybody to know that. Okay. But this thing is a mess. and the underclass that you just talked about already exists.

It exists where I live in New York. It's already here. Okay? It's going to get bigger and bigger. It's going to get bigger and bigger and more and more social programs and the states don't have the money. New York City doesn't have the money. And this is another detriment to the open border.

Last word, 20 seconds, go. I feel that borders being mismanaged. If the law was followed correctly, like I said, everybody being processed for credible fear. Can't do it. If the federal fear is not, not found, then they're not admitted. They're not even placed in the remaining Mexico program. So you're agreeing with me. You stay in Mexico, no credible fear, which takes forever to figure out, then you go back.

All right, counsel. We really appreciate it. Thank you very much. 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.

As I mentioned to the council, 62% according to CBS poll, say we want to deport all undocumented immigrants, currently living in USA. All of them. 38% opposed that. Well, that shook up. Very liberal Margaret Brennan. CBS correspondent who's on Face the Nation. Go. It doesn't seem practical in some sense to round up children. And then we know that the courts have questioned whether local authorities would have the ability to do it.

And federal authorities don't have the resources. So what exactly do people think they're supporting? Well, when you measure public sentiment on this or really just about any policy, you're getting a sense of direction. Right. People don't know exactly what should happen. They just don't want this. And I wrote a message of the day.

It's on Bill O'Reilly.com. I hope you read that every morning about Europe. That's why Macron and Germany and all these people are losing power because the working people in Europe are saying, we don't want any more of this mass migration. That happened over the weekend. I don't do a lot of foreign reporting here, but that message is worth checking out for you.

Okay. Clarence Thomas. Boy. All right, he is probably the most conservative judge on the court. Age 75, I don't know him. He has taken in $4 million in gifts over his 20-year career in a court. All right. And the latest is his friend Harlan Crow, big.

real estate guy in Dallas paid for him to go and his wife to go to Bali and then other stuff and this and that all right this is not good I don't care who you are and the second most guy who took gifts was the late Justice Scalia he took a hundred and seventy six thousand dollars in gifts in 20 years compare that to Thomas taking four million Supreme Court needs to write new guy lines for itself and put those public. And then new disclosure and all that. Every year, you've got to disclose what you take. We can't have this. Now, I don't think Tom is going to be prosecuted or booted or anything like that. I don't think he violated anything, but they need

new directions there. Can't be taken all that stuff. Smart life. Okay. So, The sedentary life of Americans catches up with you about age 60, 60. A lot of my friends. If you're active and you're out and you're of a regular exercise routine, you're much healthier. Now, I can't stop hereditary, can't stop sudden illness, can't. But on a general basis, the more you move it, the better you're going to feel and the fewer diseases you're going to win. counter. This is general. So walking is the best. I mean, if you want to join a gym, join the gym. I can't. I mean, I can't be sweating on somebody over there, but I walk every other day.

And I do a good clip. Okay, I move it. But a lot of people, they don't do that. So here's how you start, and this is a smart life. All right. The first day, you just walk for five minutes. Just five minutes. You've got to stretch a little, you know, go outside, and if it's too hot, if you're in Vegas or Phoenix, down in Texas, Florida, you got to get a treadmill. Okay, so you stay in the air conditioning, you don't want to go out in the heat and get killed, but five minutes. And then the next day, maybe seven minutes. You know, remember, it's every other day.

And you work up to 30 minutes of walking. And you get the dopey headphones on, you listen to the disco, or whatever you listen to, okay? Or a podcast. You can listen to a podcast on a headphones now. So you've got diversion. It's not that boring. What I do is I walk up hills, right?

So I try to do 30 minutes. Sometimes it's 20, but I'm doing the hill thing. And you can feel. You can feel your heart pumping. You can feel your breath shortening. And you just stretch it out. If you can get it to 30 minutes in a month, You sort of five and you just work it up and you do it every other day, that will improve

your quality of life big time, big time, all right, so that's a smart life. This day in history, June 10, 1692, Bridget Bishop, hanged by the neck until dead in Salem, Massachusetts. She was written about extensively in my book, killing the witches, still doing very well. Bridgett was 60 years old, totally innocent of anything. She's a little eccentric. The woman was eccentric, living in Salem Village, and the kids said she's a witch. And all of a sudden, she's a tree.

I'll go from a tree. All right. So the first witch executed 332 years ago today, all told that we can find, I'm sure there were more, but the two witch places were Connecticut, no central government back then, couldn't get records out of there. And Massachusetts, where they did have a central government, and you did have records. 30 human beings were executed here as witches. Listen to Europe. Germany, 6,887 people executed as witches.

Switzerland, nearly 6,000. France, 1,600. Scotland, 190. Hungary, almost 500. England, 367. Belgium, 378. Norway, 280. Finland 115. Italy, 60. Netherlands 46. Total people tried and executed in Europe during that witch madness. 16,152. Now, they weren't all hanged. A lot of them were. burned, which is the most horrendous thing ever. I open killing the witches with the Scotland execution burning the woman at the state. It's unbelievable what happened.

And the reason it happened was the king of England wanted the woman's vast land holdings. Easy way to get her out of the way, right? The Witch Thing Began 332 years ago today. All right, mail segment, and we have a final thought about two more books. I'm giving you some books to read for the summer that you'll learn, and they're fun to read as well, which is, you know, my book, killing the witches, you're going to learn a lot, and it's fun to read. And we'll be back with a final thought in a moment. Okay, final thought.

I'm kind of selfish about promoting my books, I think, but you'll like them. I have two other books that I've recently, I'm not through both of them yet, but they're gut. First is Unvanquished, the untold story of Lincoln Special Forces. The Man on Formosius Rangers, Shadow War, their forge American Special Operations. This is Civil War thing. Very, very well written by Patrick O'Donnell. Second one is Light of Battle. Eisenhower D-Day and the Birth of the American Superpower, that would be us.

Michael Paradis, and with D.D.A. and all that. This is a real inside baseball book about how D. Day and our power, the United States power, really came to be under Dwight Eisenhower, the Supreme Commander. You know, and you do if you read Killing Patton, that Eisenhower never fought in a battle. He was never a field commander. And that drove Patton crazy. Because Patton was the best field commander, but Eisenhower was extremely talented organizer and could bring people together and execute very complicated strategies. He even did that when he was president of the United States. His eight years, as you read in my upcoming book, Confronting the Presidents,

Dwight Eisenhower was a good president in 1950s, very well organized, and he did a lot of good things, and he brought the same template from the military into. And by the way, you can pre-order confronting the presidents. I got it here. This is the advanced copy. There's some mistakes in it. I'm making corrections now, but you're going to love this book.

I'm going to like it. Thank you very much for watching and listening to the No Spin Moose. We will see tomorrow.
