Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Wednesday, August 27th, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. Donald Trump mobilizes the National Guard to save one of our cities. A new poll finds the nation more divided than ever before. Families flee progressive cities and a majority of young Americans resists.
Starting point is 00:01:30 the rich. It's all coming up. Then I will be here with your message of the day. We'll talk about the latest update with the whole cracker barrel fiasco. But first, Donald Trump doubling down on his plan to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. Despite the pledge, the president refused to offer any timeline as to when the crackdown would begin. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker called the measure a blatant violation of states' rights. The governor said there is no emergency that requires the use of the National Guard. Chicago currently has some of the worst crime rates in America. CNN had a great fact checked yesterday.
Starting point is 00:02:05 They said, Trump claimed in a post that after one week, there's no crime and murder in D.C. Not true. Crime levels have declined during the federal takeover, but hundreds of crimes now have occurred. As the first it was, there's no crime in this city, and now it's, things are still awful in this city. A new Gallup poll finds Americans bitterly to fight. fighted over politics. According to the poll, 40% of the public approves of Donald Trump's performance, 43% disapprove. Ninety-three percent of Republicans support the president. See a lot of
Starting point is 00:02:35 unity there. And only 1% of Democrats think he's doing a good job. Man, TDS. For comparison, 8% of Democrats backed George W. Bush in 2004 during the height of the war in Iraq. Americans continue to flee the country's biggest cities. Data from the U.S. Census Bureau finds another 25,000 people left New York City last year, 15,000 ditched LA, 10,000 left Chicago. Biggest factors for the Exodus, high crime, cost of living, quality of life, most popular destinations for families relocating this year, Florida, Tennessee, and Texas. I will reiterate again, just population shifts over the last few years, the 2030 census for the 232 redistricting, even if Democrats won all the Rust Belt states and all the swing states,
Starting point is 00:03:25 They still would not win enough electoral college votes to win the presidency, and that doesn't even include redoing the census without including illegal aliens, something else the president wants to do. A majority of young Americans resent the rich. A study from the Kato Institute finds 52% of adults under the age of 39 believe the rich amassed their fortunes by exploiting poor people. For comparison, 85% of seniors believe that successful citizens earn their money through hard work and determination. Seven and ten members of Gen Z say they prefer socialist political candidates
Starting point is 00:03:58 over capitalist. We'll be back with the message of the day and then something you might not know. 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.

Starting point is 00:05:11 Mike Slater, filling up for Bill O'Reilly. Now it's time for the O'Reilly update message of the day. and we have a Cracker Barrel update here. The president has weighed in. The president said Cracker Barrel shall go back to the old logo. Admit a mistake based on customer response, the ultimate poll,
Starting point is 00:05:27 and manage the company better than ever before. They got a billion dollars worth of free publicity if they play their cards right. Very tricky to do, but a great opportunity. Have a major news conference today. Make Cracker Barrel a winner again. Their new chief marketing officer, Sarah Moore, said the change was about bringing fresh energy to Cracker Barrel.
Starting point is 00:05:51 I got a couple points on this. First, in the marketing world, by the way, Cracker Barrel hired three marketing companies to make this big, fresh change. They're based out of Brooklyn, San Francisco, and Canada. Now, most marketing people are young, female, progressive, not religious, and childless. In other words, they have no connection with conservatives, religious people, people, grandparents, or patriots, or anyone who values tradition. Their only focus is on innovation, no tradition, which is why on my show, we talk all the time about rejecting
Starting point is 00:06:26 modernity and embracing tradition. But if you're a marketing executive, you're all about change. You're all about making more, making things fresh and new. That's not what Cracker Braille's about. The whole point of Cracker Braille is to be like the olden days. You can't make that fresh and new. So what should they have done instead? Well, Michael Thomas said, if I were made the Cracker Barrel CEO, I would have done things like fiddle players on Friday nights. Men and plaid and women in long skirts get a free baked potato with every meal.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Families with three or more kids with both parents get a 20% discount. American history nights with quizzes and prizes. Instant sensation, on brand, great publicity. This wasn't hard. Stop with the modernists and thick-rimmed glass. with left-wing agendas. How about if grandparents come in with grandkids, 20% off? How about all the items in the general store made in America?
Starting point is 00:07:23 You get the idea. We're just brainstorming here. But all these ideas start with what is our brand? And work from there. The women who took over Cracker Barrel instead said, how can we make this brand different? More accurately, what the woke women in charge said was, how can I make this brand more like me?
Starting point is 00:07:40 just like woke women destroyed Star Wars and Indiana Jones and Marvel Variety Magazine just the other day wrote an article about how Disney is trying to find new stories and new franchises that can appeal to young men. It's like, oh, you fools, you spent $4 billion on Star Wars. You spent $4 billion on Marvel. You had the most popular male franchises ever and then you handed them over to woke women to try and spin them to find a female market that never existed. you destroyed them. And now they're like, oh, we can't appeal to young men anymore. Well,
Starting point is 00:08:15 woke women destroyed Cracker Barrel as well. Which leads me to my final point. Cracker Barrel was already lost. Sometimes it takes time for people to notice. In my experience, the quality of the food has gone down over the last couple years. Years ago, during Black Lives Matter and everything, they got all into Black Lives Matter, they got all into the pride stuff. They talked about bringing pride to the front porch. They've been woke for a while. They're also four. 14% of them owned by Black Rock and a bunch of other big companies like that. So for about five years now, they've been this massive corporation soulless fast food chain hiding behind its legacy, hiding behind its brand, hiding behind Uncle Herschel.
Starting point is 00:08:53 And now their logo finally matches who they really are. And there is a sort of justice in that. So in a weird way, I like the visual changes to Cracker Barrel. Because Cracker Barrel's brand sold out a long time ago, it's about time people see clearly who they really are. Something you might not know. Coming up next. that fast-growing trees is the biggest online nursery in the USA? Thousands of plants, more than

Now it's time for something you might not know. It is now okay to challenge election results. Let's go to Minnesota to prove this true. A couple weeks ago, we talked about how the Somali fella, State Senator Omar Fata,
Starting point is 00:10:29 won the basically Democratic Party endorsement. They called DFL in Minnesota. But Democratic Party over their current mayor. Well, the Democratic Party just rescinded Omar's endorsement. My goodness, why? Quote, a party committee found major flaws in the electronic voting system used at the summer convention. The committee ruled that the first and second ballots were compromised due to broken formulas in a tabulation spreadsheet, unsecured access, and miscounts that dropped a qualifying candidate.
Starting point is 00:11:02 What? What? What? My goodness. Voter fraud, miscalculations? I've been told. That's impossible. The committee found there was clear evidence that the endorsement of state Senator Omar Fata for mayor was facilitated by the use of a flawed electronic voting system, which they say led to a substantial undercount on the first ballot. Also, an exile spreadsheet used to tabulate votes, had several broken formulas. The spreadsheet was unsecured and accessed by non-members of the credentials committee, including by campaigns, among other problems. The current mayor came out and said, don't take my word for it. It was a process rife with errors and misconduct.
Starting point is 00:11:53 Hundreds of people didn't get counted out of hundreds of total votes. An entire ward where nobody knew who the war delegates were. and that the data itself was given to other campaigns. So they took back poor Omar's endorsement. My goodness. Look at what the left did when we asked questions. Look at what they did to Rudy Giuliani, America's mayor,
Starting point is 00:12:15 how they treated him because he defended President Trump. Keep all this in mind when someone on the left is appalled that you dare ask questions about mail and ballots and counting votes after election day and electronic voting machines in general. Trump last week said he wants to lead a movement to end mail-in ballots, which of course is a noble effort. And when we say, yeah, we should get rid of mail-in ballots, people are like, oh, how dare you? Elections are always secure. Well, not in Minnesota. Watermarked paper ballots,
Starting point is 00:12:43 where machines are only used to count. That's it. Why does one political party in this country not want that? More coming up. Thank you for listening to the O'Reilly update. I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics By Faith. We'll be back tomorrow. Warren.
