You are listening to the O'Reilly update. Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Thursday, November 13th, 2025. Here's this happening today in America. Zoran building bridges. Crime down in Chicago, crime up in Berkeley, and the end of an era. It's all coming up, then Bill is going to be here with your message of the day. But first, Zoran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, said he's going to be reaching out to the president before he takes off. office on January 1st. He said this is a relationship that will be critical to the success of this

city. He said he will inform the president that he's here to work for the benefit of everyone that calls New York City home. And wherever there's a possibility for working together towards that end, I am ready. Trump said of Mamdani's victory speech, it was a very angry speech, certainly angry towards me. I think he should be very nice to me. You know, I'm the one that sort of has to approve a lot of things coming for him. So he's off to a bad start. About four billion dollars of Section 8 money that goes to New York City comes from the federal government. It's about 75% of its budget. Good news out of Chicago, the president said that despite all the opposition from their radical mayor and governor, there has been a drop in crime in just a couple weeks from

Operation Midway Blitz. shootings are down 35%. Robberies down 41% carjacking's down 50%. And the president said this is just with a small initial federal force, not the full surge we've done in Memphis. Crime is up in Berkeley, California, at least at this turning point event, featuring Charlie Kirk's mentor, Frank Turrick, and comedian Rob Schneider. A bit of a melee outside. There was a man outside wearing a red freedom shirt. Blood all over his face. Police identified the man who assaulted him, 25-year-old Jihad. D.P.H. What do you do with that? D.P.H. The DOJ announced that it has launched an investigation. into Berkeley. Harmeet Dillon, who's the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights

Division, said that under Pambani's leadership, we've asked Berkeley police to preserve all records regarding their response to the mob violence at UC Berkeley's Turning Point USA event. The U.S. Mint will officially stop minting the penny. Yesterday, the very last penny was minted. The conservative side of meat that likes to conserve things doesn't like this one bit. We've got to keep the penny for old times' sake. But then we find out that we printed 2.3 billion pennies last year, and each one costs 3.7 cents. Every penny costs 3.7 cents to make. Somehow, the U.S. Mint lost $85 billion minting these pennies.

Shout out to the very first penny minted in America, 1787, the Fugio penny. Designed by Ben Franklin, it says, Fugio, Latin for I flee. And as a sundial, the point is that time flies. And the motto on the penny, mind your business. I'm Mike Slater from the podcast. Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message today. Next. Have you heard about Gold, Billy?

Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. On this Thursday, I appeared with Dana Carvey and David Spade on their podcast this week in support of confronting evil. I like those guys and miss the days when they, along with, with Dennis Miller, Norm MacDonald, Adam Sandler, and others delivered crisp, witty satire without malice. We talked a bit about Saturday Night Live and late-night television, which both changed dramatically. Today, many comics make their money playing to an ideological crew, so the material is largely partisan and often mean-spirited. Easy targets abound, especially President Trump.

Now, you may remember that Mr. Carvey did a hilarious Joe Biden imitation on Saturday Night Live. Brilliant. No dark undertones. All powerful people deserve to be lampooned. However, the Colbert's and Kimmels have left the comedy business preferring to damage their political targets, not just tweak them. Generally speaking, Americans don't like the hate stuff. Maybe the fringe does, but not the masses, and the TV ratings prove that statement. I'm fortunate to have seen excellent comedy at its peak, Johnny Carson, Rodney Dangerfield, those people. And I really hope the laughs return someday. 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. Let's go to the mail. We got Peter, concierge member. $2,000 direct payment is a bad idea from President Trump, while we continue to run up national debt faster than the GDP. A huge amount of money should be used to buy back U.S. bonds. Not a bad idea, but I think most consumers want relief, direct relief. Chuck, concierge, remember, I want to see. the tariff revenue paid down our national debt, not to buy votes. Very legitimate point.

Laurie Rubin, North Andover, Massachusetts, I just watched the YouTube bonus on anti-Semitism and Nick Fuentes. I don't spend a lot of time on him. I, uh, Pierce Morgan interviewed me about Fuentes today. He's not important. Anyway, uh, Lori goes on to say, uh, Hearing the little Fuentes had to say was frightening as well as saddening. Hard to believe there are people who do not see it of Hitler as an evil man. I'm married to a Jewish man. I find it very offensive for anyone to put people like Hitler and Stalin on pedestal. It's beyond offensive.

It's a mental illness. So confronting evil deals with both Stalin and Hitler. I was going to send a book to Fuentes, but I know he wouldn't read it. Because he doesn't want to know. He's using all of this crazy stuff to promote himself on social media. It's my opinion. Bonnie Fitzpatrick, Copper's Cove, Texas. Did you notice Chuck Schumer cleverly and deviously phrased his announcement to assure he wasn't lying about federal money being given to illegal alien health concerns?

You played a soundbite on the noticement news bill where he said federal government does not. fund health insurance from undocumented migrants. But they don't sign up for health insurance. It goes through the states and other programs. But you're absolutely right, Bonnie. Slight of hand. In a moment, something you might not know. Attention podcast, people. I'm Harry Cole, and I'm invited you to something properly different. Something urgent, something real. It's called Harry Cole Saves the West. If you're tired of limp commentary and afraid to offend punditry, and this is the show for you. We're taking sledgehammers to sacred cows and battling the malign forces tearing apart

the US and UK. From open borders to cultural collapse to economic chaos to the threats to national security, the values and freedoms of the West are under siege like never before. This is the show where American grit meets British backbone. We will defend faith, family, freedom and the future of the West with bold, unapologetic truth-telling. So if you'd ready to push back, ready to stand tall, ready to laugh at the madness, then hit subscribe. Harry Cole saves the West right now. Available wherever you get your podcasts. The fight back starts here.

And yes, bring the popcorn. Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. Recent survey from Newsweek finds 50% of Americans will not be taking a vacation this year. The few is since COVID hit in 2020. The biggest fact of keeping people home, record high prices. Hotels and resorts are charging more than ever. In some areas, it is insane. Here are a few examples.

The average room in New York City now costs more than $600 a night, up from $300 before COVID. Prices up 30% in London, 33% in Paris, 40% in Hong Kong, 60% in the Caribbean. The increases are a result of inflation, greed that comes out in these ridiculous junk fees. At some resorts in Hawaii, for example, they charge 50 bucks a day for coconut landscaping fees to stop the nuts from falling on your head. The Royal Hawaiian in Honolulu is known for welcoming tourists with banana muffins. That used to be free. Now, the Royal Hawaiian adds $42 to your bill, even if you don't eat the muffin.

In Brooklyn, visitors are charged $50 to have filtered water in the bathroom sink. At the Viceroy Hotel in D.C., guests spend $26. for white noise machines to cancel out the sounds of traffic. The Hyatt Regency in Boston charges people $30 for a so-called daily destination fee. That tax includes a free cup of clam chowder, but even if you don't eat it, you get charged for it. And here's something else you might not know. One of the biggest factors driving record high hotel prices is the rise of home rentals. Services like Airbnb have increased customer choices.

2010, 47,000 Americans used Airbnb. Today, the figure has ballooned to $7 million. So that hurts the hotels, and the hotels are hurting us back. Back in a moment. Thank you for listening to the O'Reilly update. I am Bill O'Reilly, no spin, just facts, and always looking out for you.
