Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Monday, June 30th, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America.

Jackson rebuke. Senator calls it quits. Marathon reading and record-breaking number of seasons. It's all coming up, and Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, Donald Trump got a major Supreme Court victory on his birthright citizenship case, which wasn't really about birthright citizenship, as much as nationwide injunctions, although that's also a really big deal. The court held universal injunctions likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has given to federal courts.

Now, one notable side story of this was the scathing rebuke written by Justice Barrett and signed off on by the five other judges that Judge Jackson has really alienated herself from the other justices. the majority opinion says Justice Jackson chooses a starting line of attack that is tethered neither to these sources nor frankly to any doctrine whatsoever. The court later says that Justice Jackson's position is difficult to pin down. And finally, we will not dwell on Justice Jackson's argument, which is at odds with nearly two centuries worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself.

Ouch. After President Trump said he will support a primary challenger, one of the senators from North Carolina said he will not seek for re-election. Tom Tillis, he's been the senator there since 2014. Trump wrote of Tillis, who voted against one of the procedural parts of the one big, beautiful bill. Trump said he loves China-made windmills that will cost a fortune, ruin the landscape, and produce the most expensive energy on earth. I can't believe that the great people of North Carolina, a state that I love and won all three times, a state that I just brought back with money, blood, sweat, and tears from the recent tragic floods while sleepy Joe Biden

and let them drown. North Carolina will not allow one of their senators to grandstand in order to get some publicity for himself for a possible but very difficult re-election. Speaking of the one big beautiful bill, Chuck Schumer decided to force the Senate clerk to read the entire bill in its entirety just to waste a day before it inevitably moves forward. You have to read the bill in the Senate unless the Senate waives it by unanimous consent, which almost always happens. But Chuck Schumer did not. So the Senate staff had to sit there for 16 hours. That now triggers 20 hours of debate still to be had. LeBron James has opted for a 23rd season.

This will be a record longest and NBA players played previously was 22, Vince Carter. Next year will be 23 for LeBron, but Robert Parrish has played in the most NBA games. LeBron is 49 games away from first place there. He'll turn 41 in December, and he'll do all this one more season for a cool $52.6 million.

On this Monday, I am a big free speech guy. I make my living that way. But the phrase at the end of the day has to be banned. $100 fine if you use it. At the end of the day, we will not say at the end of the day. of the day anymore because it's giving everyone a massive headache. Same thing with it is what it is.

And you're amazing. And all good. And no worries. Unbelievable cliches. Those phrases have infected the entire country. Now, why am I so opposed of cliched free speech? It's because it diminishes clear thinking. If you use the same phrases over and over again, you are not thinking.

You are reciting. You have memorized something, and it's boring. I cannot listen to these sports interviews because, us, every second baseman, every hockey goalie, every center in basketball says, at the end of the day, we just want to win the game. I got it. Don't say it. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me. Bill at Bill o'Reilly.com. Bill at Bill o'Reilly.com. Name in town if you wish to opine. Now let's go to the mail. Bill, I heard your talk with the Chinese delegation they put you in a room with, but what else did you do in China?

What did you see in the streets? Can you talk about that? Sure. So we were over in China, my son and I, and we did an event at the Beijing Club that I told you about, wrote about it, and all that. But before the event, we went up to the Great Wall, went to the forbidden city, Tiananmen Square. I showed them all the big historical places. we rode around a countryside. I saw no American cars.

And we're on a road, a lot of cars. Okay, none. I'm kidding? So that's that. Then on the streets, Beijing is a huge city, much bigger than New York. It was crowded.

It was hot. The Chinese people were modestly dressed. All right. Clothing was cheap, but neat. No tattoos. Why? Because tattoos are aligned with crime in China. That's the mindset. The American slabs

were wearing the worst stuff in the world. Oh, it's embarrassing. Not all of them, but enough like you just shaking your head. Chinese, no. There wasn't a scrap of litter in Beijing. Why? Why? Because if you litter, it's a crime against the people. Anything, quality of life, if you do, the Chinese government doesn't like, is a crime against the people. Doing it 20 years, there's no lawyer. So the Chinese living in a totalitarian society, a police state, they look down, they don't look you in the eye, generally speaking, doing about their business, they don't want any trouble. Finally, every Chinese citizen has to carry an ID. The ID is issued when they're born. You get stopped by an authority in China. You don't have that ID?

Gone. No phone call. So that's what we saw. In a moment, something you might not know. This episode is brought to you by San Pellegrino Chau. A new kind of flavor sparkling water. The kind made with real fruit juice, a pinch of cessation. salient salt and the sparkle of the Italian sun with no added sugar and just 10 or less

calories per can enjoy with love from Italy by San Pellegrino chow now now the O'Reilly Urily update brings you something you might not know America's birthday nearly here this week proud citizens will celebrate the 4th of July with barbecues, parades and a few fireworks. Here's the history behind the illumination industry. Fireworks originated in ancient China two thousand years ago. They were initially used to scare away evil spirits with loud noises, and by the 9th century, the Chinese had developed gunpowder, which led to fire crackers and aerial displays. Fireworks spread to the Middle East in Europe through trade and warfare. By the renaissance, they became popular in royal weddings and public festivals. The incendiaries arrived in

North America in the 18th century, became linked with the nation's independence celebration. Wrote John Adams, quote, the day ought to be honored with pomp and parade bonfires and illuminations. Well, today fireworks mean big business. Every year, Americans spend more than two billion dollars on them. Most popular, sparklers, firecrackers, Roman candles. Ironically, nearly all fireworks used to celebrate the nation's independence are manufactured in China, Macau, to be specific. But beware the tradition carries danger. Each year, 10,000 Americans visit emergency rooms for firework-related injuries. Most common? burns, eye, trauma, missing fingers. On average, five people die every July 4th from

firework intrusions. And here's something else you might not know. Fourth of July was nearly celebrated two days earlier. John Adams thought Independence Day should be honored on July 2nd when Congress formally approved separation from England. Annoyed, Adams would turn down invitations to appear at July 4th events, even filing a formal complaint with the federal government. Both Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on July 4th, 1876, the 50th anniversary of Independence. How's that for a coincidence? Back after this. Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.
