Here's this happening today in America. prisoner swap VP rumors smuggled bomb and border lies that is all coming up then bill's going to be here with your message of the day but first wall street journal reporter and a former marine were among two dozen people from seven different countries who were involved in a prisoner swap russia received eight prisoners they released 16 president biden thanked germany poland

Slovenia, Norway, and Turkey for being involved in the negotiations were told the deal was made right around the time that Biden announced he was not running for re-election. In Vice President News, the governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, who, by the way, tweeted in the past that trans women are women, which means men are women. I mentioned that with the boxer with X, Y chromosomes beating up on that Italian woman yesterday in the boxing ring. Anyway, Josh Shapiro canceled fundraising trips in the Hamptons that were set for this weekend. We're told that Kamala will make her VP pick by Monday.

Shapiro would be a solid pick for her, would help in Pennsylvania, of course, but it's going to be interesting to see what the pro-Hamas wing of the Democratic Party does with a Jewish pro-Israel man on the ticket. The top leader of Hamas who was killed on Wednesday, we now know how he was killed. a bomb was covertly smuggled into a guest house in Tehran where he was staying. The bomb was hidden two months ago. The guest house is run and protected by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. The leader of Hamas was in Iran's capital for the presidential inauguration, and the bomb was detonated remotely. The media, of course, is in the tank for Kamala, and they are celebrating that the Border Patrol

made roughly 56,000 illegal alien apprehensions between ports of entry at the U.S.-Mexican border in July. that's the lowest number since September 2020. The White House has taken credit, of course. But just so you know, this number does not include people who came into America at a port of entry via the Border Patrol's CBP1 app, which allows 1,500 per day. So it's another $45,000 a month. This number also doesn't include people who came into our airports, $40,000 from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. This is called the Humanitarian Parole Program. Add all that up, you got $140,000 a month.

Olympic medal update. China has 11 gold medals. We have nine, but we have 37 overall, France, and second with 27. Bill O'Reilly with your message of the day. Next.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. On this Friday, democracy is on the ballot. That's the liberal mantra, implying evil Donald Trump will suspend the Constitution should he be elected in November. Some believe, some scoff. It all depends on your political point of view. Nobody's vote will change after hearing that cliche. You buy it because you hate Trump, you reject it, because you love Trump.

It's a far different story with Vice President Kamala Harris. Here we have clear and present danger for traditional and libertarian Americans. It's no accident that the radical left Soros boys, George and Alexander, were among the first to canonize St. Joan of Kamala. The astute question is, why? Well, it's all about destroying the white patriarchy. The spearpoint of that alleged retribution is Ms. Kamala Harris, the most radical major party presidential candidate in history. The truth is, President Biden has no core beliefs. Kamala is different.

Far more ruthless than Biden, whom she accused of racism in a 2020 debate, you'll remember. Ms. Harris will literally say anything and will personally attack you if she is challenged. I didn't feel that way about Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and Al Gore. I disagreed with some of their policies, but I didn't see them as a danger to the country. Kamala Harris is. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com. Name in town if you wish to opine. Now let's go to the mail. Sean Serino, San Pedro, California. Bill, you have mentioned many times the media is overwhelmingly liberal. However, the general population is not overwhelming

liberal. Why doesn't the free market balance out the bias? Good question. Very good question. leadership of the corporate media as it stands now in America are liberal people. All the studio heads in L.A., California, all the talent agency heads, many, many of the Fortune 500 companies, they're all left-wingers, and they have a right to be. They're entitled to be that. But they impose that on their corporations. You saw the Miller Light thing, the Bud Light thing. I mean, bud light right yeah bud light thing uh with a trans person and you know i mean who thought that was a good idea some pinhead executive that's who that's how it comes down matt spinelli asbury park new jersey i grew up watching the factor with my dad i recently

discovered you and the no spin news on youtube we're big on youtube now always admired your balanced approach you always give accurate and fair analysis uh you are truly one of the few left in the media that I can trust. And we hope we earn that trust every day, Matt. And we appreciate it. I'm glad you found us. That YouTube has really, really been beneficial to us. Alan Minnock, Dublin, Ireland. I love the coverage that you bring, Mr. O'Reilly. I try to catch as many of the YouTube videos as I can. And I rewatch some of them. Keep up the amazing work, my fellow Irishmen. I will try. Now, the reason this is so important is that government, some, block the no-spin news from going into, say, Ireland, but everybody can watch it on YouTube.

So they can't black us out anymore. And we are just rocketing around the globe. That's big. In a moment, something you might not know. what you need to start your weekdays.

Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might, not know. 80 years ago today, future President John F. Kennedy saved his crew after a Japanese destroyer obliterated their PT boat during World War II. The event had a major impact on J.O.K.'s

life and on history. Here is the story. After graduating from Harvard, young Jack joined the Navy, who was deployed to the South Pacific in 1943, where he assumed command of a PT boat. That is short for patrol, torpedo vessel. PTs were designed for speed and accuracy. Armed with explosives and machine guns, hundreds were dispatched to scout enemy forces and disrupt supply lines. On the night of August 2nd, 1944, Kennedy was in command of PT 109. At 2 a.m. a mass of Japanese destroyer traveling 40 miles an hour slammed into the American ship, severing the boat in half. The Japanese captain was traveling so fast,

he had no idea. He made contact with the enemy. JFK and four sailors clung to the sinking wreckage. Two others were killed on impact. Kennedy, a champion swimmer, personally swam each of the wounded sailors to a nearby island. The ordeal took more than four hours. Jack and his crew spent several days on the island, surviving on coconut milk. Eventually, Kennedy swam to another island, a military outpost operated by the New Zealand Navy. He commandeered a vessel, saving his men. For his service in World War II, John F. Kennedy received the Navy and Marine Corps Medal. When asked how he became a hero in the Pacific, Kennedy simply,

replied, I had no choice. They sank my boat. For more stories about the incredible life of JFK, please check out my bestselling book, Killing Kennedy. But that ordeal in the South Pacific defined the young Kennedy and led him directly into politics. His father wanted his older brother, Joe, killed in World War II, to be the first running for the Senate. But JFK took that mantle. Back after this. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist,
