Starting point is 00:00:35 But first, New York City will soon force some mentally ill people into psychiatric hospitals against their will. Mayor Eric Adams, unveiling his plan after a spike in violent crime on the subways, said Adams, quote, the common misunderstanding persists that we cannot provide involuntary assistance unless the person is violent.

Four words, don't count on that. The USA eliminating Iran at the World Cup in gutter.

Each year, that town recreates an iconic Norman Rockwell painting inspired by the village, complete with the vintage cars and signs from the 1960s. I like going to Stockbridge. Very nice place. In a moment, more evidence the TV news has gone insane.
Starting point is 00:02:54 Right back. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast. and I've got exactly what you need to start your weekdays.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update message of the today more absurdity from the television corporations. As you may know, NBC makes tens of millions of dollars every year broadcasting the Macy's Thanksgiving parade. This year, about 20 million people watched. But at the same time, NBC was raking it in by using the holiday one of
Starting point is 00:04:00 of its commentators, Joy Reed, said this. But it's also important to unpack the myth of Thanksgiving. It is a holiday riddled with historical inaccuracies, built on this myth that the indigenous welcomed their colonizers with open arms and ears of corn, a simplistic fairy tale interpretation of a 1621 encounter between indigenous tribes and English settlers that erases the genocide that followed. It's the truth Republicans want banned from our textbooks, because here's the secret they want so desperately to keep. We are a country founded on violence. Our birth was violent.
Starting point is 00:04:41 That is just gibberish. Ms. Reed has no blank an idea of American history. She knows nothing, except that she hates her own country. She despises it. Now, you would think that NBC might put on someone who would challenge Joy Reed, especially since they are exploiting the Thanksgiving Day parade by making millions of dollars from it, right? No, why bother? Most of the folks who watch MSNBC believe what Reed believes. Why upset them? So here is the truth.

So they settled in the Plymouth area. From the get-go, there was interaction. with Native Americans living in Massachusetts. But it wasn't hostile.
Starting point is 00:06:02 There were some skirmishes, yes, but the Puritans were not there to annihilate the Indians. They needed the Indians to survive. And one of them stepped up a Native American named Squanto, who actually spoke English because he had been kidnapped and taken to Europe and helped the Puritans survived. And as the years unfolded, there were good relations with the Indians, Roger Williams, and bad relations, particularly in Maine, where the tribes were hostile.
Starting point is 00:06:40 So Joey Reed has no idea. All she wants to do every day, every way, is to denigrate the United States of America. And NBC, they love it. I'm Bill O'Reilly.
