Starting point is 00:01:00 Tomorrow, D-Day expositions begin. The number of Americans working into their 70s is way up. Researchers at the University of Maryland say senior citizens who remain in the workforce rose from 10% to 15% in the past 20 years. Major factor behind that trend is a growing population of older people with little or nothing save for retirement. To the campaign trail where a Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden unveiled his plan to combat climate change. The former vice president has introduced the Clean Energy
Starting point is 00:01:36 Revolution and Environmental Justice Program, quite a mouthful. Economist A Biden's proposal will cost about $5 trillion over the next 10 years. That is far less than the 93 trillion price tag associated with the proposed Green New Deal. of Chicago continues to struggle with vicious gang violence. More than 52 people were shot over the weekend. Ten died. The violence on display despite some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation.

Officials in Los Angeles are vowing to crack down on rat infestation now that the nasty critters are invading City Hall. According to eyewitnesses, the rodents are moving into the building
Starting point is 00:02:35 from homeless camps circling the public property. Last week, at least two LAPD officers were diagnosed with typhus, a medieval disease spread by fleas found on rats.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. Three West Coast cities are under siege by legions of homeless people, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle.
Starting point is 00:04:14 All those cities have one thing in common. Ultra liberal leadership and staggering wealth right alongside. the homeless. Let's take L.A. first. There are estimates that 55,000 homeless roam the downtown area in Los Angeles. Now, if you know anything about the city, downtown is away. It is east of the affluent communities like Beverly Hills, Brentwood, and Santa Monica. Therefore, a lot of Vangelinos never even see the encampments of homeless that ring the downtown area. But the situation is so intense as we just reported that rats run wild in L.A. Not only that, disease is spreading all over the place.
Starting point is 00:05:13 It is just a matter of time before the bubonic plague carried by rats develops in downtown Los Angeles. Now, most of the homeless are substance abusers. Studies prove that. The police have been ordered not to do anything about the encampments. So, legions of people have come together, putting up makeshift shelters, sharing narcotics and alcohol, and generally behaving themselves any way they want. This, of course, is a public safety hazard. You can imagine, if you lived in downtown L.A. and had children walking them to school. Pass all this. Now, there are laws in the book against consuming hard narcotics and being intoxicated in public and vagrancy and blocking public thoroughfares. But in L.A., those laws are not enforced.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Same thing in San Francisco, where there is an epidemic of people going to the bathroom in the streets. that has been well publicized. There are fewer homeless people in San Francisco. Estimates are about 15,000, but they are panhandling, they are ruining properties and public parks, and they are again, like L.A., doing whatever they want to do. Seattle, same situation. There are estimated 10,000 homeless in Seattle. Now, the solution to this is to stop the flow of narcotics. Without the the dope, these people will go elsewhere. That is what drives homelessness in America. Narcotic addiction. Substance abuse. People who cannot or will not work for a living because they want to be high all the time. If you stop the flow of narcotics, which again are
Starting point is 00:07:13 illegal around these homeless communities, if you will, the people. The people, People will leave. They want the drugs. They want to get high. Certainly the police can do that. That is a solution, but the liberal governance in L.A., San Francisco, and Seattle will not do it. And that is the message of the day.

Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. Today March the 30th anniversary of the massacre in Tiananmen Square, China. April 1989, thousands of pro-democracy demonstrators gathered in central Beijing, following the death of a prominent politician who called for liberal reforms within the communist government. Later that month, the country's official newspaper labeled the demonstrations
Starting point is 00:09:27 anti-socialist and condemned the activists saying they sought to overthrow the regime. Chinese government declared martial law, but were blocked by Chinese civilians who refused to leave Tiananmen Square. The crisis escalated until the earth. early hours of June 4th, when Chinese troops attacked the square from multiple directions, soldiers given the green light to open fire on civilians. Armored tanks smashed into protesters who refused to leave. Following day, a lone man publicly defied a tank, an image that was captured and went around the world that signifies a brutal massacre of innocent civilians by their own government. China has never released the official tally.
Starting point is 00:10:16 of those hurt or killed during the square protests. In response, then President George Bush, the elder, suspended high-level talks with China but did little else. But here's something you might not know. On June 5, 1989, one day after the massacre, the British ambassador to Beijing sent a secret cable to his government in London. That message was released to the public less than two years ago. The cable stated that U.K. intelligence agents believed the death toll in the square could be as high as 10,000 people. 30 years later, China views the protest as a taboo subject. You will not find it mentioned in Chinese school libraries or history books. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo released a.m. today to coincide with the anniversary of Tiananmen Square, urging everyone to
Starting point is 00:11:10 remember the horrible abuses of human rights. With everything going on in the world today, it's important to remember what real tyranny and oppression actually looks like, and it's still happening in China. We'll be right back.
