Bill O'Reilly here. You are listening to the O'Reilly update.
Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater.
Thank you, Bill. It's Friday, March 28, 2025. Here's this happening today in America.
Unnominated, special elections, HHS firings, and some major Doge updates.
That's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day.
But first, Elise Steffinick was Trump's nominee to be the ambassador to the United Nations.
Her confirmation hearing was set for Tuesday, and it was smooth sailing.
But Trump unnominated her.
Why?
Because of the drama in her congressional race that would have replaced her.
New York special elections are a bit odd.
They don't have primaries.
Instead, there's 15 counties in her congressional district, and those county chairs
decide who the nominee is going to be.
There was such a concern that Republicans would split the vote with a unified Democratic
party that they can't risk it.
So Stephanick will remain the representative for that.
district. Now there are two huge special elections this Tuesday, one in Florida, the congressional
seat that replaces Mike Waltz's district. He's now the National Security Advisor. Mike Waltz won this
seat by 33 points in the last election. Now, the Democrat running to replace him has outspent
the Republican Randy Fine 10 to 1. And the Democrats are fired up and putting all eggs in this
basket to win something. Even a slight win by the Republicans could make moderate Republicans
in much more moderate or even blue districts,
much more concerned about supporting Trump
if Randy Fine in a plus 30 district
can only win by a few points.
That election is on Tuesday.
Randy Fine, of course,
hoping for a major blowout.
Also on Tuesday is the election for a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat.
I spoke with the conservative candidate Brad Schimmel the other day.
He said this race is important
because if his opponent wins, it will be a progressive court.
And they said they will redraw the congressional district lines
and draw out two seats that are currently held by Republicans.
That alone could cause Republicans to lose the majority in the House in the 26th election.
The Department of Health and Human Services confirmed that 10,000 full-time employees will lose their jobs.
That's on top of 10,000 who already left the agency from buyout offers or early retirements.
There will now be 62,000 full-time employees at HHS.
RFK Jr. said, we aren't just reducing bureaucratic sprawl.
we are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing
the chronic disease epidemic.
Brett Bayer interviewed Elon Musk and many of the Doge leaders.
Elon said it is astounding how casually the government would waste a billion dollars or more.
He said there was a simple online survey, 10 questions.
It would have cost $10,000 with SurveyMonkey, but someone charged the government a billion
dollars.
They said 40% of the phone calls to the Social Security Administration are fraudsters.
Elon said if their mission is not complete, the ship of America will sink.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day.
On this Friday, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green from Georgia
is doing a good thing by trying to stop taxpayer funds
from going to PBS and NPR.
Those organizations are committed to promoting a liberal point of view.
So why should non-liberals have to pay for that?
But Ms. Green ruins her credibility by venting inappropriately at anyone who disagrees with her.
Yesterday, she insulted a reporter from Britain's Sky News Agency, telling her to go back to her country because no one cares what she, the reporter, thinks.
Not good.
The Sky News reporter didn't attack the Congresswoman, nor did she behave unprofessionally.
The videotape of the incident proves it.
Full disclosure, my news operation has been treated disrespectfully by Ms. Green, so she is not well thought of here.
But we report on her fairly.
Our assessment, the woman lacks discipline, and her zealotry reflects poorly on her district in Georgia.
She's essentially Jasmine Crockett with blonde hair.
Now, we apologize on behalf of all journalists to the reporter from Sky News.
Ms. Green is the exception, not the norm in the USA.
I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it.

All right, brand new YouTube commentary on our free YouTube channel.

We're looking at Marjorie Telegrine, who I told you about, and Jasmine Crockett.
She's not related to Davy Crockett, who was killed at the Alamo, but she is a congresswoman from Texas.
I'm going to get into why these people do what they do.
All right, that's on our YouTube commentary.
Let's go to the mail.
You got a Carol, concierge member, thank you, Carol.
There were several Democratic congresspeople who went in front of the camera to demand to know if Secretary Hicksith was incompetent or drunk.
As a layperson who's worked with recovering alcoholics, the behavior of these congresspeople is deplorable.
You're right.
That was so bad that Molten out in Pennsylvania, up in Massachusetts.

Trump's team should be beaten up a bit, but I'd rather have this single fiasco than any of the
cop five democratic policy initiatives you know you can't evaluate problems like that to wit you got to
solve the problem and hopefully the trump administration has Jeff Ellis Dallas Texas I'm not buying
the story about the reporter getting on the email thread with all the top government officials
by mistake are you O'Reilly yes I am I think it was a mistake but I
could be wrong, but I'm not going to go into conspiracy land until there's evidence that I am
wrong. George King, Hillsdale, Michigan. Where's the investigation into Goldberg for holding
classified information and then publishing it? Wasn't classified information? Couldn't have been. It was a
discussion. Now, after the discussion, when it's transcribed, then it could classify it. But at the time it
happened, it wasn't classified. There's nothing you can do to Goldberg. But as I said, he should
be interviewed by the FBI to find out how this happened. In a moment, something you might not know.

Now, the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know.
46 years ago today, a nuclear disaster took place in southeast Pennsylvania.
The incident will go down as one of the worst man-made acts.
accidents in U.S. history. Here is a story of three-mile island. The nuclear plant was built in
1974 on a sandbar in the Susquehanna River just 10 miles downstream from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
At 4 a.m. on March 28, 1979, a broken pressure valve failed to contain radioactive cooling
water. Left alone, the automatic safety measures would have provided.
prevented a bigger crisis. However, the human operators misread the information. Panicked, people
in a control room shut down the emergency protocols. One hour later, the nuclear core had reached
4,000 degrees, just 1,000 shy of a total meltdown like the one that occurred in Chernobyl.
As the plant operator struggled to understand what was happening, the contaminated water was releasing
radioactive gases throughout the plant. At 8 a.m., word of the accident spread. The plant's parent
company Metropolitan Edison tried to downplay the crisis. Soon inspectors detected dangerous levels
of radiation in the surrounding towns. One million residents were advised to stay indoors,
closed their windows, turn off air conditioning. 100,000 fled to safe precincts. While dozens of
workers suffered illness related to the meltdown, no one directly died from the incident,
but the fallout from Three Mile was more than radiation. The accident eroded the public's
faith in nuclear energy. The federal government halted construction of new plants. And here's
something else you might not know. Though Three Mile Island has been closed for years, the facility
is set to reopen in 2028.
Microsoft recently signed a 20-year lease
with the state of Pennsylvania.
The energy generated will power
the company's artificial intelligence data centers.

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for MintMobil.
Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you
that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless
for $15 a month is back.
So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills.
But it turns out that's very illegal.
So there goes my big idea for the commercial.
Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.
A front payment of $45 for three-month plan equivalent to $15 per month required.
New customer offer for first three months only.
Speed slow after 35 gigabytes of networks busy.
Taxes and fees extra.
