Price for a gallon of gas in California, about $6.20 on average. The national average hovering about $4.70 and all of the high gas prices will doom the Democrats in the midterms coming in November.

Starting point is 00:04:14 We need to know you're a legitimate person. We're not going to track you, but we need to. to know you're real. John and Frankfurt, Illinois, some people say high gas prices are not a result of President Biden's energy policies, but rather price gouging by oil companies as evidenced by their record profits. Well, John, why didn't the oil companies price gouge then under President Trump? Right? Yes, they're record profits. Yes, the oil companies are taking advantage. massive gas price inflation. They tack on a few cents here and there. I'm sure they do. But President Biden's attack on the fossil fuel industry drove the price of oil worldwide,
Starting point is 00:05:06 the price of a barrel of oil, way up. And he makes it harder for oil companies to harvest oil in the USA. So there's less of it. So of course, it's Biden. fault that the oil prices have risen so dramatically. Rick, Oro Valley, Arizona. Why is the U.S. airline industry short 13,000 pilots? If they were furloughed in 2020 because of COVID, why haven't they come back? Excellent question, Rick. Now, you'll remember, everybody will remember that I got a little testy with JetBlue in April because they lied to me. me and everybody else waiting for a flight to the Caribbean. And after three hours, when I couldn't get a straight answer and I knew we were being deceived, I kind of wailed on the guy who was lying,
Starting point is 00:06:02 and I'm happy I did it. Because the whole country saw it. Now, all the airline companies admit they don't have enough pilots. So what happened was after COVID furloughs, many pilots retired. Others found other work. And so the industry admits now they didn't in April. Remember, in April, they weren't telling you they were short 13,000 pilots. They were saying the delays were caused by weather, which was a lie. And that's why I swung into action. Linda Brunswick, Ohio.
Starting point is 00:06:44 O'Reilly, can you find out how much taxpayer money all these illegal immigrants are costing taxpayers. No, I can't, Linda, because it's across the board. It goes into federal agencies like Homeland Security, like health and human services. Then it goes to the states where the undocumented people eventually settle. It would take years and a lot of people to break down how much this is costing America, but you can assume it's hundreds of millions of dollars. Fred, Torrance, California. Bill, can it really happen that California will pay reparations to descendants of slaves?
Starting point is 00:07:33 Yeah, Fred. Your tax dollars could very well be used to pay reparations in California if the legislature passes that. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by putting it together. Please check out Bill O'Reilly.com. and my new book, Killing the Killers, Great Father's Day gift. In a moment, something you might not know.

Here are the most notorious celebrity court cases, in American history. First, a trial of actor Errol Flynn, 1943. The Australian-born Thespian was accused of raping underage girls in Hollywood. He was a notorious presence there. Flynn was acquitted, but his career ruined. Next, the Doors frontman Jim Morrison. In 1969, the singer exposed himself while performing in Miami. He was charged with a felony for lewd behavior. Morrison was sentenced to six months in prison,
Starting point is 00:09:24 but he never served any time. The doors disbanded shortly after that. Marston died a year later in France from a drug overdose. O.J. Simpson, of course, the trial of the century. The football star was arrested following a high-speed chase in June 1994 and charged with stabbing his wife and her friend to death In October 95, a jury found Simpson not guilty, just four hours after beginning to deliberate. 100 million people watched or listened to the trial or part of it. Civil jury ultimately found O.J. liable for the killings and awarded the families 34 million, but Simpson thus far has not paid. Next, Robert Blake, the TV star best known as Bereda, was accused.
Starting point is 00:10:17 of murdering his wife in November 2000. Five years later, a jury acquitted Mr. Blake. He was judged culpable, however, for the woman's death in civil court in order to pay $30 million to the victim's estate. He did not pay it. Finally, the trial of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. Depp sued for $50 million, claiming Ms. Hurd, his ex-wife defamed him in the Washington Post. The jury in Virginia ruled that Depp should get $15 million, but also said Ms. Heard was defamed as well, and she should get $2 million. Chaos, yes, but it could be the return of due process, which might be a good thing. All in, the average American waste 10 hours every year watching dopey celebrity
