Coming up next, the news with Mike Slater. Thank you, Bill. It is Monday, September 22nd, 2025. Here's what's happening today in America. Revival weekend, autism announcement, airport cyber attack, and country club shooting. It's all coming up. Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, the life of Charlie Kirk was celebrated by the entire government

and a completely full State Farm Stadium in Glendon. Dale, Arizona. Hard to put in words, what last night was. The gospel was proclaimed for like five hours. The vice president said, I've talked more about Jesus Christ in the last two weeks than my entire time in public life. Marco Rubio gave a 60-second announcement of the gospel, maybe better than most any churches have ever done. Pete Hankseth, our secretary of war, said only Christ is king, our Lord and Savior. Our sins are washed away by the blood of Jesus. Fear God and fear no man. The President of the United States said this is the beginning. Perhaps it should be no surprise to Charlie, who spent his life speaking with the critics of these traditions, ultimately became convinced that we needed not just a political realignment, but also a spiritual reawakening.

We did. And we have to bring back religion to America. This is the President of the United States, because without borders, law and order, and religion, you really don't have a country anymore. We want religion brought back to America. We want to bring God back into our beautiful USA like never before. We want God back. Charlie would have been so pleased to hear his friends and colleagues today giving testimony and giving glory to God. And then, of course, the greatest example of a transformed heart and of an absolutely supernatural Holy Spirit action, Erica Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk, says she forgives the man who assassinated her husband.

The president is hosting a press conference announcement on autism today in the way. White House. He actually spoke of this at the Charlie Kirk Memorial. He said, I think we found an answer to autism. Cyber attacks shut down the check-in terminals at European airports across the continent. This after radar and telecom outages caused havoc at Dallas's two airports over the weekend. Both the Dallas airports had to shut down for hours. The Dallas airports blame telecom failures and outdated systems. The Transportation Secretary talked about copper wire that still used at airports across the country. One person has been killed, two more wounded at a shooting at a country club in New Hampshire.

I will say that no one in the lamestream is reporting that a witness says he yelled free Palestine as he opened fire. Also an update on the shooting at the ABC affiliate in Sacramento, Annabelle Hernandez-Santana. 64-year-old, he used to be the legislative director for the California Federation of Teachers is in custody. I'm Mike Slater from the podcast Politics by Faith. Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day. Next.

Time now for the O'Reilly Update, message of the day. On this Monday, hard work and honesty pays off in America. Confronting Evil, the number one book on the New York Times bestseller list. That makes 20 of my books hitting that spot. World record for nonfiction. Okay, enough self-aggrandizement, O'Reilly. Evil is an important subject, as a nation mourns Charlie Kirk, and the detestable Putin continues slaughtering innocent people in Ukraine. And then there's Hamas, which has brought horror

onto the Palestinian people. I opened the book with the Hamas October 7th atrocity. I want to put you right in the middle of evil. Now, we can't look away, and we cannot distort the truth any longer. There is evil around us. Comes in many forms. It might even be in your own house. Different points of view are not evil. Competing interests are not either. But harming others in pursuit of venality, power, and or money is absolutely evil. And remember, true villains have no remorse. I learned a lot from writing this book. I have increased my goal of exposing dangerous behavior, and you will learn a tremendous amount if you read Confronting Evil. Number one on the Times list. I hope you check it out. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it.

My Casey, Philadelphia, Bill, you mentioned the NFL commissioner gave home teams an option for having a moment of silence to Charlie Kirk. Were they given the same option for Black Lives Matter and George Floyd protests? Yes. You'd notice that on each stadium or helmet or whatever slogan, it differed. And then the kneeling thing, which was put, the NFL put that to rest.

They said no more. because that was hurting their marketing big time. But no, there was no order that I know of from Roger Goodellie, NFL Commissioner, to do anything specific on Black Lives Matter in George Floyd. Ray Malzo, Prescott, Arizona, you gave you the example the other night on your broadcast about how the left is five times more of a megaphone than the right. Did you take into consideration a number of viewers on Fox News? Of course they did.

So Fox News has by far the largest news audience now, and it hovers around in prime time between two and three million. All right, and in all day it's maybe a million to a million five in that range. But if you combine the five anti-Trump networks heavily outnumbers Fox and newsmax, even if you, newsmax, they're doing three, four hundred thousand. So it's not even close. Plus the pickup that the five networks get on social media way out numbers what the pickup on Fox is because of the censorship. Because the social media just knocks out. And the Fox personnel can't get booked. You don't see them on any shows, which when I was there, you know, people were clamoring to get me on.

And others on Fox News as well. Not now. I mean, when Gutfeld went on Fallon, that was a big deal, right? You don't see that very much. So the power of the television leftist news agencies is unchallenged. In a moment, something you might not know. Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. 246 years ago today. An American naval officer wage war against the Royal Navy off the coast of England. Outgunned, he refused to surrender.

When asked to abandon ship, the Patriot replied, I have not yet begun to fight. Here is the story of John Paul Jones. Jones was born in Scotland, then sailed to the North American colonies as a cabin boy. He settled in Fredericksburg, Virginia. In the early days of the American Revolution, John Paul traveled to Philadelphia and was commissioned a senior lieutenant in the Continental Navy. He soon distinguished himself in battles against the British fleets

in the Caribbean and Atlantic. In August 1779, Jones took command of the U.S. ship, Bonhomme Richard, his destination, the English Channel. On September 23rd, the vessel was flanked by two British warships. After a 90-minute skirmish, the Richard was nearly destroyed, but Jones refused to surrender. The fight lasts at another three hours. In the end, it was the British commanders who surrendered to the Americans. John Paul Jones was then held a hero, which he was. He continued to serve in the Navy until 1788. the end of the war, before moving to France, where he died five years later at the young age of 45.

As an honor, Jones's body was buried in a cemetery owned by King Louis XVIth, soon after the land was looted during the French Revolution. But Jones's journey does not end there. In 1905, John Paul Jones's remains were found by a team of American anthropologist. His body was finally returned to the USA aboard the USS Brooklyn. On approach to the U.S. coast, seven Navy battleship joins the procession. On April 24th, 1906, John Paul Jones Coffin was buried at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. Presiding over the ceremony, President Theodore Roosevelt. Back after this.
