But first, Kamala's big interview on CNN, full of gems like, The Climate Crisis is Real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time. Bill O'Reilly tweeted last night, watching the interview with three people,

all are fair, no party apparatchiks. And I asked, anyone learn anything? No's all around. No answer as to why she switched her policy on fracking on the border. Tim Walls saying he lied about his service in war was due to his poor grammar. Kamala seems to be in a bit of a doom loop. The more she's falling in the polls, the more interviews she'll have to do, and the more interviews she'll do will make her drop even more in the polls.

A top Ukrainian pilot has died when his U.S.-made F-16 crashed on Monday, just weeks after the plane's arrived. Ukraine. The Ukrainian military says that pilot air was not behind the incident. This pilot was one of the few men in Ukraine who are trained to fly F-16s. A group of Ukrainians started their F-16 training in the U.S. this past fall. Obviously it could take years to be trained properly. These pilots only had six months. The Ukrainian Air Force says that this guy, Moodyfish, is his call name, destroyed three cruise missiles and one attack drone before he was killed in that crash. South Carolina is triple ready to put Freddie Owens to death in September.

The head of corrections says that the lethal injection drugs are pure. The electric chair has been tested, and the firing squad has the ammunition and training ready, if needed. Lawmakers in 2021 allowed firing squad to be on the menu of lethal options. Three volunteers stand 15 feet away. They're going to fire at a target placed at his heart. Owens was found guilty of killing a convenience store clerk, shooting him in the head. And while he was in custody, he murdered his cell.

made in a particularly gruesome way. This bill is now one step closer becoming law. It has enough votes from Democrats in Sacramento to override Governor Newsom's veto if he chooses to. It gives 20% down payment of a home up to $150,000 to illegal aliens. This bill

already exists. It's now being expanded to illegal aliens. Trump's campaign said the bill is fundamentally unfair, but typical Democrat policy. I'm Mike Slater.

God received some good press when President Dwight Eisenhower signed legislation had put the phrase in God we trust on the U.S. currency. That happened in 1955, and despite court challenges over the years, the inscription still stands. Eisenhower took the action to counter the Soviet Union, which was actively suppressing all theological expression. The totalitarian Soviet state replaced the god stuff. Today, religion and belief in a higher power is rapidly diminishing in America.

We are a secular country that celebrates self-pursuits. The so-called greater good is antiquated for many. of us. This is leading to strife and division across the board. Crime often not punished, technology overwhelming spirituality, personal satisfaction, paramount. Forget about the Ten Commandments. Sorry, you can't forget about something you never knew. The concept of good versus evil cannot possibly exist if you don't accept that some conduct is unbecoming. We are a nation that often rationalizes bad behavior. Once religious leaders had power in the USA and some of them badly misused that power. The result, today no religious people can counter the

relentless secularists, not one. The USA was founded on Judeo-Christian philosophy. Today, many citizens have no idea what that even is. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I'm Bill O'Reilly.

Perry, hey Bill, once again, it's most evident the reason for our corruption in the country is lacked of an honest media. That is absolutely true. Corrupt media leads and makes it much easier for corrupt politicians to operate. Catherine, Partham, Wyndham, New Hampshire.

51 years ago, two White House staffers are found guilty of domestic espionage. The scandal dragged on for another 18 months, ending with the resignation of President Richard Nixon. Here is the story of Watergate. In June 1972, a group of men were arrested while breaking into the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C. That complex was the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee. The crew included Cuban refugees and James McCord, Jr., a former CIA operative. The scheme was concocted by G. Gordon Liddy, an eccentric F.C.P. agent and member of Nixon's re-election team. He was also an admirer, somewhat anyway, of

Adolf Hitler. Liddy was previously tasked by Nixon to stop damaging leaks coming out of the White House. His unit was referred to as the plumbers. The Watergate break-in gained national attention and all over the world. On January 30th, 1973, After just 90 minutes of deliberation, a jury found Liddy and McCord guilty of conspiracy, burglary, and illegal wire tapping. G. Gordon was given 20 years in prison, ordered to pay a fine of $40,000. Upon his arrival in jail, Liddy proudly sang the official anthem of the Nazi party, suggesting that the American system was fascist.

G. Gordon Liddy was released four years later by Jimmy Carter. He reinvented himself as a successful radio host and political commentator. The felon also acted in a few TV shows, Perry Mason, Fear Factor, Miami Vice. G. Gordon Liddy died in March 2021 at the age of 90. James McCord served just five months for his. crimes. He spent the rest of his life in obscurity and died in 2017. McCord was 93. In total 69 people were convicted of Watergate crimes.
