Joe Biden traveled to Florida to look. at the damage from Hurricane Adalia, took an aerial tour, then visited the town of Live Oak, where he said, quote, nobody can deny the impact of climate crises. At least nobody intelligent. Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, did not meet with Biden on his visit. The White House said they were expecting to meet with the governor. A DeSantis spokesperson said

in these rural communities, and so soon after impact, the security preparations alone that would go into setting up such a meeting would shut down ongoing recovery efforts. Add another strike to the list of strikes that have happened this summer, the United Auto Workers, Chrysler, Jeep, GM, Ford, their contract ends on September 14th. And the union bosses, of course, talking a big game, said he's not afraid to take 150,000 auto workers out of the factories. The union is seeking to negotiate with all three automakers at once. and they're asking for a 40% pay increase and a 32-hour work week.

How long would a strike last? Well, the writers in Hollywood are still on strike. A GM strike in 2019 lasted for 40 days. And GM says that costs them $3.6 billion in earnings that year. If workers go on strike, the union will pay each member $500 a week, and they can do that for 11 weeks until they're out of money. Dion Sanders Prepare to hear his name

remember the song Sugar Sugar by the Archie's dopy tune actually reached number one in 1969 well today sugar is a very important and underreported substance too much of it will eventually kill you just like tobacco right now about 12% of the U.S. population is diabetic and insidious disease. So I was in my neighborhood deli the other day and I checked the label on a Starbucks cold frappuccino. Ready? Sixty-eight grams of sugar. All the iced teas, sodas, energy drinks loaded with sugar. Breakfast cereal, bread, booze, sugar, sugar, sugar. If the food is processed, sugar is present. I am not the food cop. I want you to enjoy life. But sugar is bad to the bone, skin, teeth,

and internal organs. It causes inflammation and ages you. Consume a lot of it. You will suffer. So why is that not widely publicized? The answer is money. The processed food industry advertises all over the place. And the media will never, ever bite the hand that feeds it, even if it's covered with sugar. 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. Jerry Gibbons, Pearl City, Hawaii. The press will never give a Republican fair and honest coverage. Whoever the Republican nominee is, the mainstream

media will make that person a villain. It's true. Absolutely, Jerry. Never, in a million years. With the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, NBC News, CBS News, ABC News, support a Republican. Pat Allen Bach, Tabernacle, New Jersey. Bill, come on now. What is going on with Mitch McConnell?

I pray for the man, but it's an insult he continues to serve in the U.S. Senate. I don't think it's an insult. I think it's selfish. He should resign. Elizabeth Hayes, Newport News, Virginia, I want to go see Oppenheimer. So I read Killing the Rising Sun. Excellent. Now I'll enjoy the movie even more.

And now you'll see how the writer and director of the movie, his name escapes me, a big famous guy, cribbed some of this stuff from Killing the Rising Sun and put it in the movie, particularly in the Los Alamos sections. Killing and Rising Sun are my favorite books. Marie, concierge, remember, identify with dropping stuff. I'm 73 years old. So annoying.

Yeah, dexterity. When you get older, Marie, you got to work it. You got to work it. I got a little ball now that I squeeze. I told you I'm in the water, the ocean, and the pool stretching. Dexterity goes. The older you get, the more you kind of become less flexible. So that's why I did that final thought yesterday.

You don't want to miss an episode. Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. It is officially Labor Day, 2003. The holiday marks the last weekend of summer, but its origin dates back to the Industrial

Revolution. Here is the story. The American economy changed drastically throughout the 19th century. After the Civil War, millions of families abandoned their farms and migrated to work in the cities. By the 1880s, most urban workers were employed in factories and shipyards. The average adult toiled 12 hours a day, seven days a week. Children, as young as five, swept floors, clean chimneys, even dug trenches. People of all ages faced brutal conditions on the job. So the workers eventually formed labor unions. They organized strikes and protests, some even turned violent. Riots broke out in Chicago, Boston, New York City, public-sided with the business owners,

not the workers, many of which were immigrants from Ireland, Italy, Jews from Central Europe, and recently emancipated black people. To appease the union bosses, however, Congress did pass an act honoring the law. laborers of America. President Grover Cleveland signed Labor Day Act into law June 1894. The legislation included legal protections for employees, including a two-day weekend, reduced hours, overtime pay, time off for religious holidays. The bill also banned the use of child labor across the country. Today, Labor Day is celebrated with block parties, parades, barbecues, fireworks, for children. It represents the beginning of a new school year. To many, it's also the start of

the football season. And here's something else you might not know. Right now, the percentage of adults in labor unions lower than any other time in history. After World War II, one third of the entire American workforce were members of a union. In 2023, that figure has fallen to just 6% of American workers. Happy Labor Day. Back after this.
