Bill O'Reilly here Friday, November 20th, 2020. You're listening to the O'Reilly Update. This is happening today in America. Major medical breakthroughs announced this week in the global fight against the pandemic, at least two different vaccines, possibly three, will likely be available within weeks, each more than 94% effective in trials. As the country waits and the world, the virus is spreading all over the place.

Governors in New York, California, Michigan, New Mexico, Washington State and Oregon, closing sections of the economy to slow the spread. The governor of New Jersey even instructing folks to avoid any Thanksgiving dinner with more than 10 people. The contagion also out of control in the Midwest, North Dakota now ranked the deadliest place on earth for new infections. The state only has a population of 800,000, but has the highest COVID mortality rate in the world, North Dakota. Right now, there are roughly 140,000 new infections each day in the USA and 1,000 fatalities every single day. The plague also running wild overseas. More than 310,000 people have died from the disease in Europe since March, Germany, Spain, Belgium, France, Italy, all bringing back

the shutdowns. Folks in the UK are even forbidden, forbidden from visiting each other's homes until next year. Australia, again, struggling to stop new outbreaks. That country imposing a mandatory six-day lockdown after a dozen cases popped up. The only business is open in Australia? gas stations, grocery stores, and daycare for kids. That's it. Everything else shut down. The entire world now awaits on a vaccine. Once approved, and that shouldn't be long, the pharmaceutical companies will draft distribution plans for each country. Here in the USA treatment will be rolled out in waves. First, health care workers, then the elderly, those with pre-existing and conditions than the general population. But I expect by early next year that this vaccine

will be available to most folks here. Scientists say 60 million doses will be available right from the jump. Another tremendous achievement for the United States of America. Coming up, the message of the day, listeners sound off. Right back. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets.

Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com. So, Andreas is in Skierport, South Africa, listening over there. Bill, I see a lot of commentators saying the president's legal team should lay out all the evidence they have regarding election fraud. Are they implying it should be splashed in the media? Surely the evidence collected is meant for the courts, meaning we as the public probably won't get to see everything. Not here, Andreas, not here in the USA. All of the court filings and hearings, on the election are public. All the evidence is in writing and the folks get to look at it,

which is how it should be, because this controversy affects every single person who votes. So I want the evidence out. I want it out as quickly as possible. I want to stop the chaos because this is not good for the USA. Robert is in Coalinga, California. O'Reilly, do you have any idea why Trump lost 7% of the Caucasian male vote, do we know how many seniors abandoned him in this year's election? The senior vote is not out yet, but I can tell you that Donald Trump lost votes among males because of COVID, because a lot of white men are out of work. And I said, as you know, Robert, that if President Trump lost, and I said this nine months ago, it would be because of COVID and the effect on the economy.

Roberta, Holly Ridge, North Carolina, who decides whether or not to hear a case on the Supreme Court? The justices themselves decide, Roberta. So here's how it goes. there's a lawsuit in Michigan, say, about the vote count in Wayne County, and the Republican suit wanting to block the count saying it was fraud. It goes to a U.S. district court judge, the judge rules, all right, says no, no, Wayne County vote was okay. Then Republicans appeal to a higher federal court. Same ruling, nope, it's okay in Michigan. Then, you can appeal to the Supreme Court. So it's a stair step. Now, as soon as a case rolls in,

the nine justices get together and vote on whether they should take it or not. And very few cases are taken by the Supreme Court because of time. They just don't have it. But in an election situation, there's a good chance of court will take it. Jim, I do not understand why the recount in Georgia is strictly for the president. If there were uncounted votes, shouldn't they apply to the senatorial races as well? Jim, you're a logical guy in Holbrook, New York, but the state of Georgia makes its own rules under the Constitution. It's allowed to do that, and they say the hand recount was just for the president. I'm Bill O'Reilly, and I put that message together. me, bill at bill o'Reilly.com.

That number rises to 98% for those under the age of 80.

As you know, the web can be an incredible source for news entertainment research. But it's also a great place for stupidity. Here are the 10 dumbest websites we found for those looking to waste some time. Number 10, catbounce.com. As the name implies, the site is just videos of cats bouncing around. Next, puglove.com. Go there for a 24-hour video of canines licking your screen. Number eight. Is it Christmas.com? For 364 days a year, the site simply features one word. No. Then on September 25th, the one word changes to yes. The number seven spot goes to koalas to the max.com. Stop by if you want to see rapidly multiplying koala bears take over your computer. Next up, Middlefinger.com. The website flips you the bird. That's it. The top five starts with MapCrunch.com. Travel the world to far-flung places with just a click of your mouse. But nobody knows where these places are. You click the go button and you'll be transported to

random streets unidentified. Very dumb. Number four, no.com. The entire site just a picture of Darth Vader. Then you can head on over to I Look Like Barack Obama.com to see photos of people standing next to a cardboard cutout of the former president. The number two spot, zombie passions.net. A dating website for those interested in the undead.

Finally, the dumbest spot on the internet, Bob Dole's, 1996, President campaign webpage. It's still up 24 years after he lost. Mr. Dole even writes, quote, Bill Clinton wants to put Big Brother in your computer by placing secret government control chips in every machine. Dumb, you betcha. Back after this.
