Bill O'Reilly here. You are listening to the O'Reilly update. Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Wednesday, January 21st, 2026. Here's it happening today in America. Party in Switzerland rejecting the Clinton's offer. Supinas in Minnesota. And the second lady is expecting that's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day.

But first, the president is in Switzerland now. But his team made the trip over the day before. Secretary Lutnik, our Commerce Secretary, was on a panel where he said the Trump administration and I are here to make a very clear point. Globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It's a failed policy. It's what the World Economic Forum has stood for, which is export, offshore, farshore, find the cheapest labor in the world, and the world is a better place for it.

The fact is, it has left America behind, it has left American workers behind. And what we are here to say is America First is a different model. Another one of the president's all-stars, Treasury Secretary Bessent, was asked if Europe has any financial weapons that the United States should fear. He said, no. The House Oversight Committee called Bill Clinton to testify in front of Congress about the Epstein files. He didn't show up. In response, facing contempt of Congress, Bill Clinton made an offer that only James Comer can travel to New York and have a conversation with Bill Clinton. No official transcript would be recorded and no other member of Congress.

can participate. The House Oversight Committee Chairman, Comer, said, I have rejected the Clinton's ridiculous offer. Former President Clinton has a documented history, a parsing language to evade questions, responding falsely under oath, and was impeached and suspended from the practice of law as a result. The absence of an official transcript is an indefensible demand that is insulting the American people who demand answers about the Epstein's crimes. Grand jury subpoenas were served to Minnesota governor, Tim Walz, the mayor of Minneapolis, the Attorney General of Minnesota. Keith Allison, the mayor of St. Paul, also the county attorney of Hennepin County and Ramsey County. The investigation centers around whether they have been obstructing federal law enforcement in the state.

Walt said the state of Minnesota will not be drawn into political theater. The Justice Department investigation sparked by calls for accountability in the face of violence, chaos, and the killing of Renee Good does not seek justice. It's a partisan distraction. The vice president will head to Minnesota on Thursday for a roundtable with local leaders and community members. And speaking of the vice president, the second lady is pregnant. The couple is expecting their fourth child in July. This is the first time a second lady has been pregnant when in the White House. There's been two first ladies who have given birth in the White House, Francis Cleveland in 1893 and Jacqueline Kennedy in 1963.

And the White House press secretary, Caroline Levitt, she's expecting her second child in May of this year. I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day. Next. Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. On this Wednesday, almost every day the Trump administration does something that requires a frame of reference to understand tariffs, bombings, dictator interventions, on and on.

The American news industry is supposed to explain important stories to we the people who might not understand what the deuce is going on. Nicholas Maduro, isn't he a shortstop for the Yankees? It is unrealistic to think that regular folks can process complicated stories thousands of miles away. The media is mandated to help the people understand by reporting facts. But that is not what is happening in America. Ideology, not fact finding, is driving many in the press.

In addition, many reporters and pundits simply don't know very much. In addition, a lot of reporters and pundits simply do not know very much. In short, they're not smart enough to do their jobs. President Trump removed the dictator Maduro the exact same way President Bush, the elder took out Panamanian dictator Noriega in 1989. Did you hear that referenced in the news, especially the first couple of days? Not very much. And that is why the media is collapsing. The purveyors simply do not know very much about history. And they don't care. 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. George Shee in Black River, New York. Bill, can you explain what happened in Minnesota Nice? Has the demographics that area changed so much? Or was it phony? It wasn't phony in Minnesota. I've been going there for a long time, but the radicals moved in.

They control the government now there. I mean, if you go outside of Minneapolis, St. Paul, or Duluth, most people are conservative. Most people are traditional. But there are not a lot of them. Same thing like Oregon. Oregon is a crazy left state, but it's in the Oklahoma County, Portland, and the Salem area, the college areas.

The rest of Oregon, vast eastern part of the state, are traditional people. thing in Washington State. King County controls it. And that's what happened to Minnesota. And they're probably still nice there, but as I said, I'm not going. Rick Warner, Hanokey Falls, New York. Be fan of your books and your program, Bill. It is in the Constitution that the president can deport anyone at any time for any reason. Where is that? Rick, if you can point me in the right direction there, I don't think that's in the Constitution because that would violate due process. That would be like a king.

And the founders never give a president that kind of power. But if you see something in that constitution that I'm missing, please let me know. In a moment, something you might not know. Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might, not know. 23 years ago today, the United States Census confirmed a major demographic shift in the USA. The largest minority group was no longer African Americans, but for the first time, Hispanic Americans. Here is the story. After the Civil War, roughly 20% of the nation's population were of African descent.

Most lived in the rural south, or northern cities like New York, Philadelphia, Detroit, D.C. In the early 20th century, less than 1% of the USA was Hispanic. Nearly all lived in regions formerly owned by Mexico or Spain, that is California, Texas, Arizona, and Florida. Well, all of that changed during the Great Depression. Beginning in the 1930s, millions of Mexicans came across the border to the border. to take jobs in mining the railroads, agriculture, and hospitality. Some arrived legally, many illegally. At the same time, Congress granted full U.S. citizenship to the residents of Puerto Rico. Hundreds of thousands then relocated to the northeast, particularly New York City.

In 1960, the communist revolution in Cuba triggered a massive way. wave of migration into Florida. Soon neighborhoods, calling themselves little Havanaes, could be found across the Sunshine State. In 2003, the U.S. Census Bureau released a report outlining the demographic changes in America. For the first time, Hispanics comprised 15 percent of the population. Second, went to blacks, 13%. The largest group in America remained whites, 69%. Today those numbers are even more striking.

Americans of Latin origin make up 20% of the country. That figure rises to nearly 23% when counting illegal migrants. And here's something else you might not know. Because of high birth rates, migration trends, other data, experts believe Hispanics will outnumber whites by the year 2016. Back in a moment. Thank you for listening to the O'Reilly update. I am Bill O'Reilly.

No spin, just facts, and always looking out for you.
