East Room address. First use ever. Impeachable offense and would-be murder neutralized. That's all coming up. Bill's going to be here with your message today. But first, President Trump spoke from the East Room of the White House on Saturday night. I believe for the first time ever, flanked by other people. It's quite the show of strength. J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio, and Pete Hegset, the vice president, secretary, state, defense secretary, all standing behind the commander in chief.

The president said, for years, Iran has been saying death to America, death to Israel. They've been killing our people, blowing off their arms, blowing off their legs with the roadside bombs. That was their specialty. We lost over 1,000 people, and hundreds of thousands throughout the Middle East and around the world have died as a direct result of their hate.

He went on to say, this cannot continue. There will either be peace or there will be tragedy for Iran, far greater, that we have witnessed over the last eight days. Remember, there are many targets left. Tonight's was the most difficult of them all by far, and perhaps the most lethal. But if peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed, and skill. Most of them can be taken out in a matter of minutes.

Trump ended his eastern address, saying, and I want to thank everybody and in particular, God. I want to just say, we love you, God, and we love our great military. according to the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff Operation Midnight Hammer A group of B2 bombers flew west over the Pacific But that was a decoy The actual B2 bombers used in the attack

Flew out of Missouri east Seven B2 bombers An 18 hour flight just to get there The first B2 bombers dropped two Of these 30,000 pound bombs That are able to penetrate 200 feet underground And then within 25 minutes 12 more MOPs were dropped on targets at three nuclear sites.

It's the first time this weapon's ever been used in combat. Also, a U.S. submarine launched more than two dozen Tomahawk cruise missiles into Iran as well. More than 125 American aircraft participated in this mission. The B-2 bombers, fighter jets, refueling planes, surveillance aircraft, more than 75 precision guided weapons were used, and not a single shot was fired at Americans. AOC said Trump should be impeached for this strike in Iran. The president's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.

It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment. In other news, at a church in a Detroit suburb of Wayne, a suspect drove his truck into a church in open fire, he was shot and killed by a security guard in the church. I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day. Next. Going on vacation, we're here for it.

With kids who turn a back seat into a courtroom drama over whose tablet is louder, whose charger is faster, and why watching the same cartoon for the hundred times as a human right? Yep, we totally have vehicles to handle that. Because whether it's a road trip or a business trip, where your flight's delayed, your phone's at 2% and your dinner, whatever's open. Yeah, here for that too. Enterprise we're here for it time now for the o're riley update message of the day on this monday the iran situation is causing the exposition of the american isolation movement fascinating movement

and some big names are in it tucker carlson steve bannon a bunch of left-wing congresspeople They don't want to have anything to do with conflicts overseas. Now, the long history of this here, may remember that in a Revolutionary War, 50% of the colonists did not want to rebel against the king. They're fine. Hey, we don't want anything new. And then in the run-up to the Civil War,

the worst president of all time, James Buchanan, allowed the South Horizon ferocity. Disobey laws, create chaos, Buchanan did nothing. Then in World War II, the British appeased Adolf Hitler, and after the war was winding down, President Roosevelt gave Stalin everything he wanted. That resulted in World War II in the Cold War. Now, we have a recent history of Vietnam and Iraq. Those wars were not fought effectively for America, so the isolationists can point to that. But in today's modern world, you can't go it alone.

Countries are tied together with trade and with security. And that is a true. If you're an isolationist, you're on the wrong track. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach

Wayne Washington, I agree with you, Bill, and trust you to provide accurate reporting. I do not trust many on social media. Sadly, I now filter most information through artificial intelligence to see where I'm being misled. I do too. I use AI, but I always confirm it. But it's a smart

play. You can't just believe what you read on the net. Maurice, concierge member, Maurice If he gets in trouble, my crew will go to his aid.

Sad reality of what our society has become. Because you're smarter. That's what happens. And you have life experience. Heidi, concierge member, trusting the internet, Even AI is also subject to lies and false advertising. Be careful, everyone. It's like the real thing, but it's not.

Caution. Heidi, you're absolutely right. Caution, caution, caution. You know, we go through a laborious process here to make sure what we tell you is true. And I get so much mail, is this true, it's that true, and I can't do it all. I just don't have time and do it all. So it's really loopy. It's way out there, the stuff that they're putting forth.

I wasn't aware of all the merchandise being sold by the Trump family. I agree it was far less bad than Hunter Biden in the Biden family, but I remember Billy Gate, President Carter's brother selling beer. As I said, most of them do it. I'm not justifying bad behavior. You can make the call. The president doesn't have any direct wine. and his sons run the company.

But you make the call. In a moment, something you might not know.

Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. 137 years ago today, a black abolitionist received one vote at the Republican National Convention to be president. That lone ballot made him the first African American to be considered for the nation's highest office. Here is the story of Frederick Douglass. Young Fred was born into slavery. 1838, he fled Maryland for New York City with forged papers and a sailor's uniform. Wrote Frederick upon his arrival in Manhattan, quote,

I felt as one might feel upon escape from a den of hungry lions, unquote. Once free, Douglas dedicated his life to the abolishment of slavery. He traveled around the country, speaking of his experience and bondage. Frederick Douglass published three autobiographies dealing with the horrors of his childhood. To avoid capture from bounty hunters, Douglas and his family moved overseas, but returned to the USA in 1847. Back in America, the former slave published newspapers arguing for emancipation, the right to vote, and female liberation. On June 23rd, 1888, Douglas received one vote at the Republican Convention in Chicago. The first time in U.S. history, a black man was considered for president.

The choice ultimately went to Benjamin Harrison, who was elected to the White House five months later. It was not Frederick's first nomination. He was also considered for vice president at the Equal Rights Party Convention 15 years earlier. Frederick Douglass died from a sudden heart attack in 1895. He was 77. hear something else you might not know. Later in life, Douglas forgave his captors. In 1877, he met with

Thomas Ald, his former owner, as all lay dying in Baltimore. Now remember, Frederick Douglass was brutalized by this man on a Maryland plantation. But Douglas had the decency and the compassion to reconcile with his old slave master in the man's last moments. An extraordinary example of compassion and forgiveness. Back after this. I'm 32.
