Adam Schiff, Gerald Nadler, five others will make the Democrats case against the president.

I think it'll be over two or three weeks. The USA and China signing a historic trade agreement. The 94-page proposal protects America's intellectual property while requiring Beijing to purchase $50 billion of U.S. agricultural products a year. President Trump hailing the deal is a major win, but the tariffs remain.

Walmart rolling out robots to service more than 650 stores across the country. The six-foot-tall droids can stock shelves, clean up spills, hand out coupons. Critics say the robots will ultimately cut jobs filled by actual people. Walmart, the largest employer in the USA. Can't wait for the bots to go into politics.

The Gallup organization took a survey of Democrats, Republicans, and independents, asking them to define what is, quote, extremely important to them. So I have the list in my hand. The first one, climate change. Democrat, 44% say it's extremely important. Independent, 27. Republican, just 8% say climate change is extremely important. Health care, 49% Democrat, 36 independent, 22 Republican.

Distribution of income and wealth in the USA. 37% of Democrat. 37% of Democrat. Democrats say it's extremely important. 25% of independence, 12% of Republicans. Race relations, 33% of Democrats, 24% of independents think it's extremely important, just 11% of Republicans. Gun policy, 46% of Democrats think it is very crucial. Independent 31, Republican 26. Sex. Lesbian gay rights, 18% of Democrats, 11% of independence, 5% of Republicans think it's extremely important. That's the lowest number. Immigration, 28% of Democrats, 26% of independents, 30% of Republicans think it's extremely important. And finally, terrorism and national security, 33% of Democrats see it as vital, 33% of independence. Same thing.

38%, the highest number of the Republicans, extremely important. So what this survey tells us is that liberal Americans are really obsessed, and I don't use that word in a pejorative negative way, but they're obsessed with climate change, health care, and gun policy. All right? Those are the big three that the liberal people are agitated. about. On the Republican side, terrorism, national security, far and away number one. Conservative people are concerned about immigration, third of them, and after that, gun policy. Independence, who will decide the presidential election next November, health care is the big one for independence, all right, then terrorism, then gun policy. Now, I believe health care is the

Democrats' strongest issue. Most Americans are fed up with paying high cost for prescription drugs. The USA has more going out on legal drugs than any other country in the world. Why is that? Our corporations make these drugs, invent these drugs. Why are we paying more than everybody else. So the Democrats are pounding that. And the Republicans really don't have an answer. So if you're going to handicap the presidential race on issues, that is the strongest issue the Democrats have. The strongest issue the Republicans have is the economy, the free marketplace that the Democrats want to destroy. Anyway, we live in a divided nation. Everybody knows that. And next November, we'll see which side gets the independent vote.

Now, the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. The USA is more polarized than at any point since the Civil War as we just analyzed. Recent polling says the country is split pretty evenly between conservatives and liberals, but when it comes to the nation's colleges, one side dominates. Democratic faculty members outnumber Republicans 10 to 1 is a look at some of the most liberal schools in the country.

Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, New York, just north of the city, where 1,400 undergrads pay $60,000 to attend. All that money gets you courses in the classics, but also in feminist economics. Intersectionality research and the poetry of earth. Wow. Notable alumni at Sarah Lawrence, Barbara Walters, Rom Emanuel. Heading west to Mills College, Oakland, California. Less than a thousand students there. Mills, the first female college to admit transgender students. Cross the bay to San Francisco State University, last year's commencement speaker, Nancy Pelosi. She used the occasion to promote sanctuary cities and liberal drug laws, but no mention of the city's awful homeless crisis. Back east to New York University,

each year, a group hosts a bash for Carl Marks on his birthday. Festivities are free, but students are asked to pay what they think it is worth. Well, no, I'm not going to cheap shot that. NYU's tuition, 50,000 bucks, so the kids don't have a lot of money left over. Carl Marx, of course, would be appalled by that. Groucho Marx, we don't know. Next, you see Berkeley, the birthplace of Indigenous People's Day. Believe it or not, until 1962, all male students underwent mandatory military training at Berkeley. Well, times have changed. The school is now the site of Antifa riots. And here's something you might not know. The cost of college tuition is up 260% since 1980. The average student incurred $37,000 of debt. It's no surprise far-left policies like

free school, now supported by 7 and 10 college students. Back after this, 2019 was a year of incredibly low mortgage rates.
