When factoring in taxes and other sources of revenue, the figure means the Fed is now running an $866 billion a year deficit. The spending will lead to economic disaster. It is just a matter of when.

Researchers at the University of Chicago searching for a pill that could cure loneliness.

Critics say just another example of over-medicating the country's youth. A new study from the United Kingdom confirms the number of teenagers requiring reading glasses is growing. With doctors claiming young people are spending too much time staring at tiny screens. Experts say teens can spend more than seven hours
Starting point is 00:02:09 per day looking at their smartphones and computers. Administrators at the University of London are taking the fight against climate change to the cafeteria banning hamburgers and other red meat products from the school to quote help save the planet or Earth.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update message of the day, due process and the Constitution. As all Americans should well understand, we are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, and that should extend to the court of public opinion as well. But for presidential candidates and senators, Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, it does not. Last week was the fifth anniversary of the police shooting in Ferguson, Missouri. Michael Brown shot dead.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Here's what Kamala Harris tweeted on August 9th, quote, Michael Brown's murder forever changed Ferguson in America. His tragic death sparked a desperately needed conversation and a nationwide movement. We must fight for stronger accountability and racial equity in our justice system, unquote. On the same day, Senator Elizabeth Warren said, quote, five years ago, Michael Brown was murdered by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri. Michael was unarmed, yet he was shot six times. I stand with activists and organizers who continue the fight for justice for Michael.
Starting point is 00:05:25 We must confront systemic racism and police violence head on, unquote. Now, two United States senators, two presidential candidates, basically saying Michael Brown was murdered by a police officer. Well, the Justice Department under President Obama investigated thoroughly. Eric Holder was the Attorney General supervising the investigation. Federal investigators found that the police officer who shot Michael Brown, Darren Wilson, did not violate any law, that he was defending himself, that witness accounts quoting Michael Brown saying, hands up, don't shoot, were a lie. He did not say it. Federal investigators found Michael Brown attacked Officer Wilson, and he defended himself.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Also, the Justice Department under Mr. Holder, again a very liberal man, found it was no racial motivation for the attack. Those are the findings of the Obama Justice Department. Yet, Warren and Harris are calling it murder. That is not due process. That is not how our system works. And if you remember, both women convicted Brett Kavanaugh, the Supreme Court justice, when he was being accused of harassment and other terrible things in his hearings. Both women said he was guilty based on no evidence whatsoever, nothing but the word of an accuser. Subsequently, the FBI investigated Mr. Kavanaugh, top to bottom, found no evidence. But Senators Warren and Harris have never apologized.
Starting point is 00:07:21 So what we have here are two top politicians in this country denying due process, denying the rule of law. This is a dangerous situation. If either of these women are elected president, this country is in trouble. that is not a political statement. That is a factual statement. That's a message for more news and analysis. Please head on over to Bill O'Reilly.com where you can actually see me. Coming next, something you might not know. Bill O'Reilly here, if you are age 75 or older, and if you own $100,000 life insurance policy or larger, I want you to get a pen and write down this information. Many Americans are making the decision to convert their life insurance policy into cash,
Starting point is 00:08:11 giving them some extra money to pay off credit cards, medical bills, any number of things. Look, the economy has been a struggle for many. Some people need cash. There's nothing wrong with that. You can get that money if you're over 75 and if you have a $100,000 or larger life insurance policy. So write this number down. 844, we buy 75. Totally free to call it.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Get rid of those insurance premiums. Stop paying them. consider turning the policy into cash. The number again, 844-We-B-U-Y-75. 8-4-4-W-E-B-U-Y-75. Call now, brought to you by our sponsor, Life Guide, Partners. Now, the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. The NFL preseason underway last week, the Cleveland Browns defeated the Washington Redskins. 30 to 10. The highlight of the game occurred in the fourth quarter when a wide receiver named Damon Shihi Giuseppe fielded a punt, running the ball 86 yards into the end zone. The touchdown led to a bench-clearing celebration by the Browns, not because it decided the outcome of the game, but because of the player who did it. Mr. Shihi Giuseppe is not new to football. He was an all-American
Starting point is 00:09:39 punt returner in junior college, but after failing to make the NFL, the 24-year-old decided to create his own opportunity. So a few weeks ago, he traveled from his home state of Arizona to Miami, Florida, to take part in a tryout for the Cleveland Browns who were training there. But he wasn't invited to the tryout, nor did Damon know anyone. When it came time for the field work, the Brown's coaches had no idea who he was. So he told them that he knew the team's vice president of player personnel, Alonzo Highsmith. In reality, that was a fib.
Starting point is 00:10:25 But Damon said it with such confidence that they let him into the tryout. During his performance, Damon impressed the team's coaches. He performed so well that the Browns invited him to Ohio to take part in their training camp. The only problem, Damon was broke. In the week leading up to his workout, in Miami, he slept outside or in a fitness center. He charged his phone at a local laundromat. He only ate one or two meals a day wandering up to cookouts or having his mom back in Arizona remotely order him meals. But once he made it to Ohio, Damon impressed the scout so much they offered him a contract. Now, only time will tell if Damon Shihi Giuseppe will go on to NFL start him.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Whether his 86-yard punt return is a culmination of this amazing story or just the beginning, one thing is for sure. Damon's tenacity has earned him the respect of football fans everywhere. I'm rooting for Damon Shihi Giuseppe. I hope you are too. We'll be right back.
