Congress subpoena's Rudy Giuliani for documents relating to the Ukraine. Ten House Democrats currently oppose impeachment, but just ten. Research shows modern politics playing a negative role on Americans' health. Iran says new missiles make the destruction of Israel achievable. California to allow college athletes to play for money. Also, I had the message of the day how President Trump must handle the impeachment situation. But first, Democratic lawmakers issuing new subpoenas to Rudy Giuliani demanding documents from the president's personal attorney related to his contacts with senior Ukrainian officials. The effort part of the latest push by House
Starting point is 00:00:57 Democrats to remove Donald Trump from the White House. Similar requests were sent to Secretary of State Pompeo and other officials. The subpoenas are likely to be challenged. Just 10 Democrats in the House of Representatives currently resisting impeachment. Lawmakers need a simple majority in the House to endorse articles of impeachment that then would be sent to the Senate for trial. This, of course, can change very rapidly based on information that comes forth. We'll have more in the message of the day. Research from the University of Nebraska shows the modern political environment having a bad impact on Americans' health. Study finds 40% of Americans say the 24-hour news cycle is a major cause of stress.
Starting point is 00:01:44 20% of the folks say they get fatigued, and 4% admit to suicidal thoughts. A top Iranian general claims his country's latest missile technology now makes the destruction of Israel, quote, an achievable goal. The leading commander of the Revolutionary Guard telling reporters they have the capacity to destroy the imposter Zionist regime should the USA attack the Islamic Republic of Iran. Well, if Israel is ever attacked, a world war would result. California officials publicly defying the National College Athletic Association, NCAA, Governor Gavin Newsom, signing new legislation that would allow.
Starting point is 00:02:27 student athletes to hire agents and make money through endorsement deals, the law is set to take effect in 2003. Critics say the introduction of money could corrupt college sports. In a moment, what President Trump must do to combat impeachment mania? Right back with it. Bill O'Reilly here with an important message. If you're a listener to this program, you may know how much I love dogs. Today, let's talk about something I care about very much.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update message of the day, the latest on the impeachment mania and what President Trump must do. As the gallows are being designed by the hate Trump media, the nation learns
Starting point is 00:04:14 from the Wall Street Journal that Secretary of State Pompeo may have been on the Trump call with the president of Ukraine in July. Well, so what? Pompeo is the top foreign policy guy. The New York Times tells us that President Trump may have discussed the Mueller report with the Australian Prime Minister, possibly asking him about an Australian citizen involved in the bogus dossier thing. Again, so what? If I were president, I'd ask foreign leaders, for any information they might have about corruption, and the dossier is a prime example of that, wouldn't you? But the hate Trump media, which is now driving the impeachment hysteria, is framing both of those minor stories as something very heinous. The press is also deifying
Starting point is 00:05:10 the whistleblower, and we still don't know what the whistleblower's motives are. We do know he hired three lawyers and is not paying them. So who is? Impeachment, of course, is an extreme action meant to protect the nation from a criminal president. In 1868, Andrew Johnson was impeached. Lawmakers claimed he violated the Tenure of Office Act by removing Secretary of State Edwin Stanton. His trial in the Senate was very close. 35 to 19. A single vote kept him from being booted from office. Then in October 1998, Bill Clinton was impeached. Lawmakers in the House claiming he lied under oath, committed obstruction of justice in the Lewinsky case. The vote on perjury in the House, 28 yes, 206, no.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Instruction of Justice, 21, yes, 212, no. So, there was a trial in the Senate. On the perjury, it was 45 senators saying, yes, 55, no. Instruction of justice, 50, 50, but there was not a two-thirds vote to remove the president, so Bill Clinton survived. As for President Trump, there is no clear wrongdoing in the public arena up to this point, but Mr. Trump is making a big mistake by sending surrogates on TV to defend him in the Ukraine matter. And then he tweets all day about it. He is becoming the featured act in the
Starting point is 00:06:57 impeachment circus. So here's what the president should do. Address the nation. Look into the television camera and explain why he made the call to the Ukrainian president and what kind of information he is seeking, even now. The President of the United States is a chief law enforcement officer in the land. It is his job to uncover corruption. By the way, the real reason Donald Trump made the call to Ukraine in the first place is explained in my new book, The United States of Trump. And that's the message of the day. Tonight on Bill O'Reilly.com, we'll read a lot of your mail on the impeachment thing. We'll also get you the inside story on Elizabeth Warren. See you at 7 on Bill O'Reilly.com.

But pay attention to the banks. Some of them ran out of cash last Monday night and had to borrow money from the Federal Reserve. Since last week, more than $500 billion has been printed and given to the banks just so they could stay in business. Sound familiar? Remember in 2008 when the Fed had to bail out the banks?

We're currently living through the worst drug crisis in American history, and many don't even know it. Major cities, rural areas, suburban towns, all devastated by substance abuse every day. With an 130 Americans die from opioid overdoses, that number tripling since 1990. Alcoholism also a major problem, 90,000 deaths per year from booze.
Starting point is 00:09:30 In 1999, 16,000 Americans died from drug overdoses that year. The number now, 63,000, and it's more than that. Some families don't report cause of death. So how is this affecting communities across the country? Well, the cost is steep. It starts in chaotic homes where one in five children grow up with a parent who has a substance problem. 80% of child abuse involves alcohol or drug use. Children of addicted parents also are prone to marital problems themselves.
Starting point is 00:10:04 The divorce rate tripling in the past three decades. If that doesn't sound bad enough, life expectancy is falling for three consecutive years in America. Two of the biggest contributing factors, drug overdoses, and liver disease caused by drinking. Economists say substance abuse causes $120 billion in lost productivity. Incarceration, premature mortality, hospitalization, rehab, all hitting us in the pocket while debilitating the workforce. The U.S. Department of Labor reports 65 percent. of on-the-job accidents or drug and alcohol related. In 2017, half of all unemployed men in America
Starting point is 00:10:45 were addicted. As a nation, there is an economic burden to bear, of course. The CDC estimates opioid abuse is an $80 billion a year problem. Alcohol abuse, $250 billion. After declaring a public health emergency in 2017. The Trump administration secured $6 billion in new funding. The largest online distributor of drugs was shut down, and customs agents have captured more than 2,300 pounds of the deadly drug fentanyl. The solution? Talk to your children. Tell them substance abuse and intoxication is bad. Tell them every day. Back after this. Millions of Americans have been diagnosed with cancer or a serious illness. If you are one of them, and money is a problem, you're not alone.
