Trump's Thanksgiving message, Cabinet bomb threats, Zuckerberg de Mara Lago, and Socials Band.

That's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message today, but first, Trump's Thanksgiving message from his truth social account said, Happy Thanksgiving to all,

including to the radical left lunatics who have worked so hard to destroy our country, but who have miserably failed. And we'll always fail because their ideas and policies are so hopelessly bad that the great people of our nation

just gave a landslide victory to those who want to make America great again. Don't worry, our country will soon be respected, productive, fair, and strong, and you will be more than ever before, proud to be an American. About 25 people at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, I think fall into that radical left lunatic category. They tried to stop the parade in front of the Ronald McDonald balloon holding up a sign that said, don't celebrate genocide, a bunch of anti-Israel protesters, but police had none of it. They were all arrested. They postponed the parade for about five minutes. But a dozen of Trump's cabinet picks have been the target of pipe bomb threats, mostly at their homes.

Don Jr. wrote on Twitter, enough is enough with this type of deranged crap. Bomb squads were indeed brought in, no pipe bombs were found. Mark Zuckerberg made a trip to Mar-a-Lago, had dinner with Donald Trump and others, bringing together the founder of Facebook, and the former president who was once banned from it. Trump, Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, said, Mark Zuckerberg, Obviously, he has his own interest, and he has his own company and his own agenda. But he's made clear that he wants to support the national renewal of America under Trump's leadership. Zuckerberg probably not happy about this story.

The Parliament of Australia has banned all social media for anyone under the age of 16 entirely. First law of its kind in the world. So it applies to TikTok, Facebook, Snapchat, Reddit, X, and Instagram. There are fines for up to 50,000. Australian dollars is $33 million for systemic failures to prevent children younger than 16 from having accounts. It passed the Senate 34 to 19 in the House 102 to 13, overwhelming support. The law gives the socials a year to figure out how to keep 15-year-olds off the platform entirely before they will start to enforce it. One argument against this is it violates the privacy

of those who have to prove that they're over 15 to get an account. And others say that this could further isolate LGBTQ kids who need that online community to find support. I'm Mike Slater for the podcast Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly with your message of the day. Next. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress.

Comcast announced last week that NBC News is, quote, uncoupling from MSNBC. That means the progressive far-left cable channel is done. As I reported on the no-spin news, my television broadcast, it's a bit complicated. Comcast owns NBC and has seen the information mothership NBC News get hammered in the ratings

as consumers walk away. Today's show down 30 percent, nightly news off 20. 20%. As you know, pretty much every commentator on MSNBC despises Donald Trump. And executives cheered that on. But now suddenly, changes in the air, as Mr. Trump is once again the most powerful person on the planet. First up, MSNBC's name will be changed. Maybe to the Open Border Channel, OBC, or maybe the Fidel. cable channel FCC. But wait, there's already an FCC, the Federal Communications Commission,

and under Trump, it is not going to be friendly to Comcast if you get my drift. Finally, there are plenty of haters on MSNBC, as everybody knows, and it's good to see these people getting what they deserve. It is over. Hope you saved your money. More retribution for Donald Trump. 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. Now let's go to the mail. Carolyn Swoop, Holidaysburg, Pennsylvania. I'm a retired public school teacher 30 years. I'm interested in your opinion, Bill, on Donald Trump's plan to dismantle the Department of Education.

So Linda McMahon, the wrestling magnate, who's now the Secretary of Education, she'll get confirmed. And she'll downsize that thing. I mean, Ramoswamy and Musk will go in there with a sledgehammer. So it'll be there. He's not going to ban it, but it's not going to be anything. And it'll cut its budget way, way down. I say, should. It doesn't do anything.

Education's all local, Carol. You know that. It's all local. Dennis Presley, Effingham, Illinois. I'm a Trump voter. However, if he forces Ukraine and cede territory to Putin and Russia, then in my estimation, he becomes the Neville Chamberlain of the 21st century. Overstating. Overstating.

So Putin has really been punished harshly in this war. It's embarrassed to him about a half million casualties on the Russian side. Economy tottering, Russian people hate Putin, but the secret police in the military, so back him. That's why he's there. So what Trump will do is say, hey, ceasefire, and then there'll be votes. But, you know, that's not going to be anything. I think Ukraine at this point, the Ukrainian people, ladies' poll says that, they're willing to say, okay, if some people in the eastern part of the country want to be Russia, we'll let them.

I think that's how it's going to go down. It's not a Neville Chamberlain thing. Neville Chamber and, of course, the guy who gave Hitler full reign to conquer Europe, the British Prime Minister. In a moment, something you might not know. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine, New York Post columnist, and the host of the brand new podcast, Podforce One.
