Bill O'Reilly here. You are listening to the O'Reilly update. Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It's Tuesday, July 18th, 2023. Here's what's happening today in America. It's hot out. And we have solar flares.

Another train derailment. And this is no longer the nation's most popular major for college students. That's all coming up. Then Bill will be here with your message today. But first, it is hot. Death Valley hit 128 degrees. It just missed 130, which would have tied the highest temperature observed worldwide in the past 90 years. Heat advisories, excessive heat warnings, and watches in 14 states.

For the first time on record, an excessive heat warning issued for Miami over the weekend. Dangerously hot conditions with a heat index value up to 112 were expected. It's hitting Europe, too. summer is what's hitting one island in italy hit 117 degrees almost europe's all-time record rome's record is 105 hit 108 china had its hottest temperature ever 126 and to add to our problems the strongest category of solar flares could be emitted this week scientists in russia and america observed three solar flares they're called x-class flares solar flare is an explosion on the surface of the sun could last for minutes could last for hours one solar flare has so

much energy in it it could power the entire united states for a million years and you're thinking well that's going to make us really hot it actually doesn't it affects internet outages and satellites and other technology but it doesn't affect the temperature a 40 car freight train derailed in eastern pennsylvania on monday just north of philadelphia 20 cars off the track one of them had hazardous materials but no reports of anything leaking out yet. It was back in February when that train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, and that controlled burn. But one of the problems with the news is once something's out of the news, people don't care about it anymore. For decades, about 20% of bachelor's degrees were given to

teachers, people going to college to become teachers. Today, not so much. Back in 1971, 21% of college grads were in education. Today, it's 4%. Schools in all 50 states have reported teacher outages. One reason why the dip is so drastic, it's believed, that women have more career options than in the 70s. The number one most popular college major today, business. I'm Mike Slater from the podcast Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly is here with your message of the day. Next. Power, politics, and the people. behind the headlines.

These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world. Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. On this Tuesday in the summer of 1967, I worked as a water safety instructor for the town of Babylon, Long Island, New York. In the confines of that town, about 40 miles east of New York City, lies Gilgo Beach, which I know well. Classic summer spot full of surfers and families, snack bar that's been there for 70 years, a few beach houses.

Gilgo has a California vibe. Frankie and Annette could have shot their beach movies there. The area is beautiful seascape that at one time epitomized summer innocence. Now it's haunted forever. Between 1996 and 2011, a serial killer planted at least 10 bodies along the barrier. island where Gilgo is. Most were sex workers. In the winter, depositing corpses in the dense scrub east of the beach would have been easy. No one around. Few people ever go into the scrub. Now, last week, police arrested 59-year-old Rex Huberman for some of the Gilgo murders.

It took more than a decade, but DNA science finally got him. Yorman says he didn't do it. However, my analysis is the opposite. He's entitled to a defense, but I believe he'll eventually confess. He has a wife, a grown daughter, and a special-need son. More victims. Their lives are damaged forever. This story demonstrates that evil takes many forms. No one is immune from it.

It appears at random. Stay alert. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it.

I was an NYPD supervisor of investigations for more than 13 years. I thought the FBI was corrupt when I was in office, but nothing was done about it, 25 years ago. Today I'm furious about their corruption. Oh, my. But Chris Christie thinks that Ray is doing a good job.

Jason Cope Mountain Home Arkansas, someone who read, killing a mom. I believe Christopher's FBI is vastly more dangerous than Jay Edgar Hoover's FBI. Hoover was the problem. All right, one guy back in killing the mob, and if you want to know about the FBI, that's a book to read. Ray is a problem, but there's a lot of other problems. That's the difference. Ed Wai Ranch, Austin, Texas,

on the Noseman News, you listed several corrupt acts by the FBI, including lying to the FISA court. What did the FISA judge do about it? Nothing. Judges really, very rarely do they make public statements. should have, but I don't know if one Pfizer judge did. Leo, if huge numbers of our citizens don't care if the FBI is corrupt, then the crazies have won. We can all sing, bye-bye, Miss American Pie.

A lot apathy. A lot of people don't even know it. Then I'm paying attention. Concierge member Wayne, thank you, Wayne. Democrat politicians are fine with corruption as long as it serves their ends.

Fifty-four years ago today, one of the most prominent politicians in America wrecked his car after a barbecue in eastern Massachusetts. The senator did not report the deadly crash for 10 hours. Here's the story of Ted Kennedy and Chappaquittic. On July 18, 1969, most Americans huddled around the TV set to watch the Apollo 11 lunar landing. But in New England, Kennedy and his cousin were hosting a cookout on Chappaquittic Island, part of Martha's Vineyard. The party was a reunion for staffers of the slain Robert Kennedy's 1968 presidential campaign. Bobby was Ted's older brother, as you know. Following his assassination one year earlier, Ted Kennedy,

assume the family's presidential ambitions. By 1969, Teddy was elected majority whip in the U.S. Senate, was an early frontrunner for the 72 Democratic presidential nomination. Around 11 p.m., Kennedy, a married man, left the party with 28-year-old Mary Joe Kepekne. While driving down a beach road, Ted went off that road, flipped his Oldsmobile off a wooden bridge and into a stream. The senator escaped the car. Mary Jo did not. The senator quietly returned to his hotel room, changed his clothes, and incredibly went to sleep. At 9.45 the next morning, 10 hours later, Kennedy reported the accident to local police. Mary Jo Kepekne's body was removed from the underwater wreckage. She

had drowned. The incident became a worldwide scandal. While Kennedy vehemently denied he was drunk or having an affair with the woman, he ultimately pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of an accident. He received a two-month suspended sentence. The fix was in. The death of Mary Joe Kepechny ended Kennedy's presidential prospects, however. George McGovern went on to win the Democratic Party's nomination in 1972, followed by Jimmy Carter in 1976. And here's something else you might not know. Edward Kennedy remained in the Senate until his death, 2009 the value of mr kennedy was to his party as an elder statesman and massachusetts voters did not reject him kennedy died at his home in hyana sport from brain cancer it was 20 miles
