But first, the one big beautiful bill has passed the Senate.

A 50 to 50 vote. So J.D. Vance was the tie-breaking vote. Now it goes back to the House where Speaker Johnson said it will pass. He can only have three defections. In order for it to still pass, Mag is already running ads against Thomas Massey in Kentucky. That's worth noting, according to the senator from Missouri Schmidt, in the Senate bill that passed, is removing illegal aliens from Medicaid. Now, we were told that the parliamentarian took that out of the bill, but the senator from Missouri says it's actually still in it.

They never took it out. Now, they did have an amendment to put it back in. in. But that was a fake. That was just done to get the Democrats on the record on this issue. And 44 Democrats voted to keep giving illegal aliens Medicaid. But it was never actually taken out of the pill at all. Republicans knew the Democrats were going to vote that amendment down. And they just wanted to make them look bad with the vote. The president visited the Florida Everglades with Governor Ron DeSantis, who he called a great friend, to visit Alligator Alcatraz, a 5,000 bed tent in the middle of the swamp surrounded by

alligators and pythons to serve as a quick staging ground before people are deported. DeSanta said he is deputizing the National Guard to serve as immigration judges to get illegal aliens through the process just within a few days. In other border-related news, the Department of Justice is prioritizing revoking citizenship from some naturalized Americans who have committed certain crimes. Crimes like torture, war crimes, human trafficking, and human rights violations. This is nothing new. It just hasn't happened a lot.

From 1990 to 2017, America's averaged about 11 of these denaturalization cases per year. The Ivy League University of Pennsylvania and the Department of Education have come to an agreement where UPenn has agreed to apologize for their past Title IX violations and to ensure that women's sports are protected at the university for future generations of female athletes. UPenn will restore to all female athletes, all UPenn records, titles, and recognitions that were misappropriated by male athletes allowed to compete in the female category. UPenn will also have to send a personal letter of apology to every impacted female swimmer. Amazing.

The chair of the Federal Reserve under recent pressure from President Trump said he will not take off the table cutting rates as soon as this month. Trump has called him too late Powell while making the point that we have some of the highest interest rates in the developed world. I'm Mike Slater from Politics by Faith.

Independence Day, comes a Gallup poll asking if Americans are proud of their country. According to the poll, the record, low number says yes. It's predictable. Many anti-Trumpers are not happy. He's president again. And younger Americans in general are disenchanted with the country. Millennials born 1980 to 96, clock in at a 58% proud rate, while only 41 of Gen Z, born after 96, revere the USA. The baby boomers, my generation, approve of the country at a rate of 75% despite the Vietnam war and decades of economic turbulence. Education is a key component in the proud assessment. The public school system no longer emphasizes history and civics, leaving millions of

of Americans ignorant of America's greatness. They evaluate their country through a selfish lens wears mine. The dumb factor, as I call it, drives much public opinion. The U.S. Constitution gives all Americans the absolute right to be a moron, and many of us champion that circumstance. So here's the truth about the U.S.A. For 249 years, it is often. offered more opportunity for prosperity than any other country. You can make it here if you try hard. And millions of Americans have sacrificed their own lives so other people could be free.

Jim says, I've written in several places that it's time for Chief Justice Roberts to stand up for our country and instruct these bottom-level federal justices, the three liberals, I'm assuming Jim means, to cease issuing unlawful injunctions against the executive branch. Well, that has happened. Another three Supreme Court justices who dissented from that ruling, Roberts can't

tell him what to do. He can make fun of him, but he can't tell him what to do. Wayne, Justice Jackson, is not qualified to be on the court. She never rules on the law. She only rules on what she wants the law to be. She is an activist. That is true. And that is what Joe Biden put on the court. He would have put on all liberal activists if he had had the chance. John Sponsia, Brookfield, Wisconsin. President Trump made a gallon effort in creating Doge to put a dent in the deficit. However, one big, beautiful bill seems to be full of spending to increase the deficit.

Can you explain this, O'Reilly? I just explained it, John. Okay? This has been going on since World War II. They spend to get their Congress people and senators to vote for the bills, they give them stuff, and it's out of control. Mark Ray, Houston, Texas. Were you able to ever find out why the Bidens keep refinancing their homes? I was not because that is privileged private information.

It's like medical stuff. I can't go into the IRS and tell them to give me records seeing if the Bidens, you know, what they did with their money. mortgages. It's private. I think there should be a congressional investigation into the whole finance thing on the Biden front. And maybe down a row there will be. In a moment, something you might not know.

Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might, not know. 61 years ago today, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act. The legislation outlawed racial discrimination, integration, schools, eliminated laws banning blacks from voting. Here is the story.

After the Civil War, Southern states passed laws that suppress minorities, especially African Americans. The system of segregation became known as Jim Crow, named after a bigoted minstrel character from the 1830s. In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled that racial segregation in public education was unfurricular constitutional. As a strength of the civil rights movement grew, President Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson made the passage of a civil rights bill a key pledge in their 1960 campaign. After JFK's assassination, Johnson carried out the promise. The Civil Rights Act fought tough opposition in the House and a heated debate in the Senate before being approved.

W.J. signed the law on July 2, 1964. The Act prohibited racial discrimination in employment, education, and outlawed segregation in schools, buses, parks, hotels, restaurants, and swimming pools. Also, here's something else you might not know. Though Johnson's effort to end legal segregation was successful. Racial inequality remains a significant problem in the USA. And some say the government has made things worse. In 1965, 24% of black babies were born to single mothers. 24%. That number is now 80%. America's cities remain divided along racial lines. Detroit, Chicago, New York, LA, rate of integration has stalled since the 1960s. LBJ tried to end segregation in America, but its legacy endures.
