Thank you, Bill. It is Wednesday, June 18th, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. The bunker buster. Ice arrests. The immigrant governor speaks out, and the court has been cut. That's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, Iran has two known underground nuclear enrichment sites. One was attacked on the first. day of attacks by Israel, the Natanz. The other is called Fordo. It's buried 300 feet underground in a mountain, protected by air defenses. It sounds a lot like the plot of Top Gun 2. It's protected from most conventional bombs, but we have a 30,000 pound bunker busting bomb. It's 20 feet long. It's so heavy that it burrows underground and then explodes. And then other bombs can be dropped afterwards

that can go even deeper than the initial 200 feet. The bomb is carried. by a B2. We have 19 operational B2s. In 2017, we flew him 34 hours to go hit targets in Libya. They left the base in Missouri, went to Libya and came back. There's no public reports of this weapon being used in combat. Iran says they've produced uranium at 20% purity, but the International Atomic Energy Agency, they had a report on May 31st that say they've increased its production to 60% enriched uranium, which is approaching the 90% level needed to fuel a nuclear weapon. ICE has arrested a New York City comptroller and candidate for mayor after he tried to shield an illegal alien from being detained by federal agents inside a federal immigration

courthouse in Manhattan. The comptroller was locking arms with the illegal alien when he said, show me your warrant, show me your badge. I will let go if you show me a judicial warrant. They pulled them away and arrested him. Ice said no one is above the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will face consequences. In other immigration news, the Border Patrol in the month of May did not release a single illegal alien into the interior of the United States. Now, you're thinking why would that have ever happened once ever? How can that be news? Why would you ever release an illegal alien into the United States? Well, last May, the federal government, under different leadership, released 62,000 illegal aliens into the United States of

America. This May, zero. It is now official. More people in May watched television from streaming networks than on cable or network TV combined. It's the first time that's ever happened. The fastest growing group of people who cut the cord and moving over to streaming, people over the age of 65 who watch the most TV. People over the age of 65 love the free streaming networks, which is why the show Gunsmoke, which originally aired in 1955, is one of the most watched streaming series over the last few months.

and a strong democratic machine has turned Philly into the city of brotherly love unless you love Trump, then we hate you. The Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper reliably spouts a progressive line, because other than sports, that's pretty much all there is in Rittenhouse Square. Therefore, it was amusing to read Far Left columnist Will Bunch's latest

anti-Trump screed, where he championed the no-king protests while attacking the military parade. Quote, but Trump had already been defeated in the street. by everyday citizens who stopped his immoral invasion against the soul of America, says Mr. Bunch. Wow. Well, first of all, the demonstrations didn't stop anything. President Trump is doing what he believes is right for the country. Sorry, Will, you are living in the land of Oz.

Secondly, what's his immoral invasion stuff? be the ice raids. Perhaps the immoral tag might be applied to President Biden, who took an oath to uphold the law of the land, then totally ignored immigration statutes. That sounds a bit immoral to me, but not to Will Bunch, who I am nicknaming Wild, as in Wild Bunch. It's a movie. We're seeing, which is more than I can say for the dopy column. I'm Bill O'Reilly.

This is a news analysis show, not breaking news. knew about it but i'm going what am i going to add to it heinous horrible then what i don't see any linkage therein where it's another cycle path uh lorry brown ponciana florida hey bill i'm a concierge member can you shed some light on whether or not taxpayers paid for the army 250 parade. Yes, they did. That came under the Pentagon, the Defense Department. There was some private money involved with it, but mostly taxpayer money. Barbara Boussill, Southbury, Connecticut, Bill, is there anything I can say to my no king sign carrying friends and family

to make them understand how wrong they are? No, there is nothing you can say, Barbara. Could people believe what they want to believe, and they don't like Trump, and that's it. That's it. John Colito, Lakeside, California, I noticed the mainstream media was eager to point out the cost Trump's Army parade. Does anyone have an estimate of the nationwide cost for the No King protest? No, because it's state by state. So it would be 50 states.

You'd have to add up the costs in each state. Maybe somebody will do it, but it's not a Fed. situation there. In a moment, something you might not know.

Musician Brian Wilson passed last week at the age of 82, as you may know. Despite his death, the band founded six decades ago will soon hit the road again this summer. He's the story of the Beach Boys. Wilson started the group in 1961 alongside his brothers, Dennis and Carl, their cousin Mike Love, friend Al Jardine. Famous for their sun and fun attitude, the boys quickly became the most popular band in America. They racked up, hit after hit, surfing USA, I get around, helping Rhonda, California girls, on and on and on and on. The songs basically celebrated, in his sense, and the sunny side of the street. way for I am the worm of the song within me at night."

The Beach Boys had a run of about five years where they were selling millions and millions of records and then things started to go south as often happens with rock and pop bands so the beach boys were sued for copyright violation missing royalties even physical altercations among the band members filed lawsuits against each other overrides the band's name song credits finances brian wilson even sued his father murray who briefly worked as the band's manager for illegally selling the Beach Boys song catalog for $700,000. Brian lost that case. In 1983, the Reagan White House actually banned the Beach Boys from performing on the

National Mall for the 4th of July. That was a disaster, and President Reagan eventually apologized for doing it. And here's something else you might not know. Six decades after their formation, the Beach Boys continued to twilight. You can see the group this July and August all over the USA. In Europe, in fact, I'm going to see them next week. Current lineup features one original lead singer Mike Love, 84 years old. And he's still got it.
