Bill O'Reilly here. You are listening to the O'Reilly update. Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Thursday, March 14th, 2024. Here's what's happening today in America. TikTok to the Senate, Boeing Audit, West Point revamp, and Iron Lung Paul.

That's all coming up. Then Bill will be here with your message of the day. But first, the House passed the bill that would force the communist in China to divest from TikTok. or else it would be banned here in America, now moves on to the Senate. It's called the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act. 352 yes, 65, no.

170 million Americans are addicted. Excuse me, active users of the app. I'm sorry, propaganda mind control software. It's unclear if China is willing to sell it or if an American buyer would be willing to pay up. The FAA conducted an audit of Boeing, the manufacturing of their planes. Of the 89 production process audits conducted,

Boeing failed 33 of them, with 97 instances of non-compliance identified. The concerns included use of a hotel keycard to check a door seal and the use of liquid dish soap as a mechanical lubricant. In total, the unrelated news, John Barnett, who worked for Boeing for over 30 years

before he retired in 2017, for the last seven years of his career, he worked as a quality manager at the North Charleston plant with the 787 Dreamliner. A few years back, he told BBC that under pressure workers have been deliberately fitting substandard parts to aircraft on the production line. He said he also uncovered serious problems with oxygen systems, suggesting that one in four breathing masks would not work. He was in Charleston for legal interviews related to this whistleblower case when he was

found dead in his truck in the hotel parking lot from a self-inflicted wound. West Point has announced they are removing their motto, duty, honor, and country. Those words come from the great army general Douglas MacArthur, and he said in that speech, in the evening of my memory, always I come back to West Point, always their echoes and re-echos, duty, honor, country. In a letter, the superintendent of West Point said he wanted to focus more on the mission essential tasks of build, educate, train, and inspire versus duty, honor, and country, replacing those three with just general army values. Paul Alexander has lived in an iron lung for 70 years.

He got polio at the age of six. He's been in the iron lung since. But in those 70 years, he graduated college, earned a law degree, published an autobiography. He said, I've got some big dreams. I'm not going to accept from anybody their limitations. My life is incredible. Paul passed away at the age of 78. I'm Mike Slater. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day.

On this Thursday, President Biden's proposed 2025,

budget is truly shocking. He is asking for $7.3 trillion in spending when the previous high for any other president was $4.75 trillion. That number came in 2020 from Donald Trump. While most Americans do not understand the danger here and the corrupt media will not report it, if federal spending reaches that level, economic catastrophe is almost as short. Last year, Americans sent $4.5 trillion to Washington in taxes. That's about $3 trillion less than Biden wants to spend next year. If my math is correct, then it is. So taxes on everything would have to rise.

Already, the extravagant Joe wants to tax corporations at 28% up from 21. If that happens, businesses will pass the hike onto us. the consumers pretty much guaranteeing a fierce economic slowdown. The United States currently carries a $34 trillion debt. President Biden is responsible for $6 trillion of that in just three years. He is the biggest spending president in history. His progressive base wants socialism, and that's what Joe will try to give them. Remember that. come November. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it.

when Joe Biden wins, well, that ship is already sailed. We are in socialist territory right now, and Biden will probably win. this will become a fully socialist country in the near future because that's what the people want well i disagree with you we're not a socialist country yet okay you are correct Biden and his progressive backers want that but we're not there yet okay will biden win that is impossible to say right now do people who vote for him understand

and socialism and? No, they do not. They are voting in motion. Most of them. Kevin McDaniel, Las Vegas. The proposed Biden wealth tax sounds like communism. It is. It's seizure of private property. That's why it'll be ruled unconstitutional. And it will get to the Supreme Court. California is going to lead the league here on this. James Milner, Keswick, Virginia. In Congress today, they interviewed Mr. Hur, and the document, issue. All the questions from Democrats were about Trump. Unbelievable. It's not unbelievable. Every time a Democrat in Congress is interviewed about anything, that person will dash Donald Trump. That's it. That's the strategy. Julie, concierge member, thank you, Julie. Did your liberal friend

supporting Joe Biden after the state of the union address at least listen to your words? My liberal friend shut me down, then leave abruptly. and they unfriend in contacts in social media. Well, they're not friends. So they're doing you a favor. By their misbehavior, Julie, what do you want to waste time on them? In a moment, something you might not know.

Now, the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might, not know. Sixty years ago today, a Dallas nightclub owner was found guilty of murdering Lee Harvey Oswald, the assassin of President John F. Kennedy. The killing added even more confusion to one of the darkest chapters in American history. Here is the story of Jack Ruby. Jacob Rubinstein, born 1911 in Chicago, the son of Polish and, and Jewish immigrants. During World War II, Ruby served in the Army as an aircraft mechanic. In 1947, he moved to Dallas, opening a string of nightclubs and the illegal casinos.

Throughout his shady career, Jack Ruby made connections with local gangsters and members of law enforcement. On November 24, 1963, two days after JFK's murder, Lee Harvey Oswald was in the process of being transferred to a more secure jail. He was briefly held in the basement of the Dallas police headquarters. At 11.20 a.m., Oswald began to walk out accompanied by two police officers. Ruby, wearing a dark suit in gray fedora, shot the assassin in the stomach. Oswald was taking a Parkland hospital where he later died. Ruby was then charged with murder, claiming he killed Oswald to save Jackie Kennedy the

mental anguish of a criminal trial. On March 14, 1964, a jury found Jack Ruby guilty of homicide and sentenced him to death. But three years later, a Texas court reversed that decision because of so-called improper testimony. Before the second trial, Ruby was admitted to Parkland Hospital the same place where J.F.K. and Oswald were taken. He then perished from lung cancer at the age of 55. And here's something else you might not know. The fedora worn by Jack Ruby during the shooting recently sold at auction. A collector paid $65,000 for the hat. Back after this.
