Hey Bill O'Reilly here.
Welcome to the NOSBIN News for Tuesday, February 25th,
2025, stand up for your country.
Elon Musk, like them?
No?
I don't know.
I met him once.
Hollywood party.
He's not the most gregarious guy in a room, but either am I.
We just said hello, I can't give you any more than that.
Genius, you know, wealthiest man in the world, all of that.
But that doesn't mean he's a good public servant.
Doesn't mean he's a good person.
I don't know.
So because I don't know, I am very cautious about analyzing Doge.
D-O-G-E.
You know, Doge was the leader of Venice.
Did you know that?
I bet she didn't.
But anyway, I can't really get a handle on this.
And so I'm very passive.
I don't know whether Musk has control over it or not.
And we'll get into it a little bit today.
But I'm not going to be out there praising or criticizing unless I know.
Now, that separates me from 95% of the pundits.
throw the stuff out there and they have no blank
and I do what they're talking about. We don't do that
here, which is why you're here.
I'm not wasting your time on stuff like that. If I don't know,
I'll tell you. And I don't know.
What I do know is that government
has to stop
wildly spending our tax money.
Has to. And that's going to be layoffs.
It's going to be responsible spending. It's going to be
programs cut, all of that.
And then I knew this as well.
Democrats will oppose all of it.
That's what they do.
They don't have any solutions other than a fair share, raised taxes, that's it.
They got no spending plan at all, other than just give money away.
All right.
Talking Points memo this evening is cynicism on Ukraine.
So I have explained to you in vivid detail why President Trump is doing what he's doing
regarding bad Vlad Putin.
column on Sunday, discombobulating is the name of the column.
If you haven't read it, you don't have to be a member.
Just go to bill o'Reilly.com.
You can read it.
Messages today yesterday took it a step further.
So if you want to know why President Trump isn't hammering Putin, isn't disparaging him
at the UN or anywhere else, you read that stuff.
because there is no other option.
That's what it comes down to.
This is a simple story.
Putin has to stop.
You cannot make him stop.
Ukraine's not going to defeat Russia on the battlefield.
And NATO in the United States is not going to get involved with World War III.
So you can't make Putin stop.
He's got 10% of Ukraine occupied by Russian troops at a tremendous cost, but Putin doesn't care
about that.
He doesn't care of his people are dying.
If they're cold, they don't have enough to eat, he doesn't care.
That's why he's on the cover of confronting evil.
I'll get to that later.
So the only way to deal with Putin is to get him to the negotiating table.
Doesn't have to be a regular table, but on the phone.
and say, look, Vlad, we're not going to make you look bad, but we have to stop this and
will allow you to save some faiths. And that's what's going to happen. I predicted this before
Trump was elected. Now, the other side is nothing, nothing, okay? The UN doesn't have anything,
Democratic Party doesn't have anything, nothing. There's rhetoric, empty, stupid rhetoric,
and the press is worse. Just to show you how out of control this Ukraine thing is, in addition to
all the casualties, seven million Ukrainians have left that country. I mean, it is devastated.
And the United States has spent $128 billion taxpayer dollars. It's according to a report by
U.S. News and World, which I believe is accurate, probably more than that. Second UK,
29 billion, Germany, 27 billion, France, 8 billion. So France has not been kicking up.
Even though Macron was here yesterday talking up Trump, France doesn't kick in much.
So you can see, $128 billion for us.
Everybody else is way down the list.
So we continue that?
If Kamala were elected, we would.
Because she could never get Putin to pay attention.
Putin didn't even talk to Biden for two years.
Wouldn't even take Biden's calls.
Not that Biden had anything to say to him.
He didn't.
Okay. With that as fact, what I've told you is fact, no opinion. Here's the opinion I gave on News Nation last night. Go. And look, I know what I'm talking about, Lila, and I know exactly what Trump is aiming for. He would like to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Pride. That may or may not happen. That's not the most honest organization over in Norway, but he wants to get this thing settled. But I go back to me.
my original point, under the Democratic Party, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, you had no chance
to stop this war. None. And yet I see these people parade out Schumer and all these other people
going, oh, no, no. Well, what do you got, pal? You don't have anything. Okay. And that really
bothers me. All right, here is Schumer on Ukraine. Go. Today,
On this third anniversary of Putin's war, Donald Trump is turning his back on the values that America stands for, of democracy, of security, and of liberty.
Instead of standing up to Putin, Donald Trump is siding with him and against our own allies.
Stand up, how?
How?
You want us to attack him?
Chuckie?
You stand up to him.
We have to stand up to him.
this is just so cynical. It's so dishonest. It really is. So I look back, I said to my staff,
look, Kamala Harris campaign for the presidency, what, for four or five months? Did she ever put
forth a solution or an idea that might bring about a ceasefire in Ukraine? Did she ever do that?
And the answer is, no.
Here's what she said.
There will be no success in ending that war without Ukraine and the UN Charter participating in what that success looks like.
That being said, America must stand firm in being a leader in defending international rules and norms that include one of the most important,
which is the critical nature and importance of sovereignty and territorial needs.
integrity. Jibberish. Absolute gibberish. She doesn't know. She doesn't care. And she, if she were president,
Putin did just go along killing people. Didn't ever stop him. But she sent money.
Billions and billions and billions and billions of dollars go out of here. All right,
summing up, I expect Trump to make a deal. I think he will. A lot of people will. A lot of people
won't like the deal. I'll take a fair look at the deal. Okay. Putin will not stop this war.
If you go after him, you would have to use military force on the man. Okay, that's World War
Three. Hello. And that's the memo. All right. Hey Trump, part 87,000.
So it's Black History Month, and there was a reception in the White House, Thursday, last Thursday, February 20th.
And there has been Black History Month celebration at the White House since 1976, as there should be.
African-Americans should be honored.

And I have a couple of Martin Luther Kings, another great man.
Anyway, 500 people were at the White House to celebrate Black History Month.
No, not good enough. Rule it.
I guess God bless you if you've never been to the White House and maybe you looked at it as some kind of great experience.
But everything this president has stood for and done in the last decade or so has been a complete rejection of what black history is.
sure so no matter what he does that trump hatred cash pettel new fbi director versus
Elon Musk okay I love this story because it's a very good example of a power play
okay and as you know Elon Musk sent out
a blast to all federal employees saying you have to justify your job. You have to give those five
things that you've done, okay, last week in the pursuit of your job. Five things. They're called
bullets. Okay, so the FBI Director Cash Patel says to his crew in the FBI knew you don't have
to do it. Okay. Not only that, but the State Department, Marco Rubio, said, you don't have to do
it. Homeland Security Department, no, you don't have to do it. National Institutes to help,
nope. Defense Department, nope. Hold it easy. Telling their people, I don't have to do it. Nevertheless,
and this is why the story amuses me, president is behind must.
Go.
We're trying to find out if people are working.
And so we're sending a letter to people.
Please tell us what you did last week.
If people don't respond, it's very possible that there is no such person or they're not working.
Okay, it's fair.
It's fair.
There's a lot of federal employees that are home there.
Nobody knows what they're doing.
Barra Mosque has done the same thing, but nobody's obeying it.
And that's the key to the story.
Elon Musk has no power.
Can't fire anybody, can't look at your personal records, even though the press reports
that he can, he can't, and if he does, he'll get in trouble.
But the president would like to know what the federal workforce is doing.
That's legitimate.
What about the Justice Department?
Now, we heard a lot, okay, about how weaponized justice department was under Joe Biden.
all right. The immortal Merrick Garland Attorney General. Where is Merrick? What happened to Merritt? Joe disappeared, but I know where Joe is. He's in Delaware, wandering around in his jammies. All right? I don't know where Merrick is. He just got out of town, I guess. Well, joining us now is our go-to guy for Justice Department stuff. Brett Tomlin is a former U.S. attorney for the state of Utah.
in the state of Utah, I should say, not four, and joins us now from South Dakota.
What are you doing in South Dakota again?
You got another property there or something?
Is that what you do?
That's where the horses are, so we try to spend some time in the mountains.
Ah, the horses don't want to go up the mountains.
It's too hard, so you're in a flatlands of South Dakota.
Now I know.
All right, where's Merrick Garland?
You know, I'm told that he's taken some time off, got to recuperate, I guess, from the scrutiny
that he endured and told that he's working on a book deal and that he's looking at options
among very large law firms in Washington, D.C. So not surprising, that seems to be the M.O.
of a lot that, you know, after leaving as Attorney General.
All right. If you can get in touch with him, tell McCall me, I have a great title for his book.
How I screwed Trump by Merrick Garland.
That big bestseller, huge, but he had to tell the truth.
I believe that Merrick Garland took orders from the Biden White House, not Joe because Jordan wasn't cognizant from day one, but from Ron Clayne and the others, to really put the screws to Donald Trump.
That's what I believe is an American.
Do you believe that?
I do believe that.
Bill, I think you've nailed it.
I mean, Merrick Garland was furious about, you know, not getting the appointment.
I think he constantly had Trump as his number one target.
And if you look back at the cases that he was, you know, authorizing, they were devoid of the necessary law and facts to support the effort in general.
But I don't think he cared about that.
I think he wanted a, you know, divide and conquer strategy among, you know, Trump and his supporters.
All right.
You outran your coverage.
to use a football metaphor.
When you said he was disappointed about he didn't get the appointment to the Supreme Court, okay?
So Garland was being considered, and that did not happen.
All right, so I could never, ever understand why Mar-a-Lago raid took place.
I never could understand that because they could have done it, as you know, as everybody.
knows in a much more subtle way, as they did with Joe Biden.
Okay?
Both men were asked a number of times to return documents.
Both men prevaricated word of the day.
They didn't respond as they should have, both of them.
And one, you know, 80 guys come in and with machine guns, and the other has nothing.
I mean, I think that is, I'm a simple man.
That's about as simple as it gets, right?
Well, it is.
And I think the American people had the same sentiment.
They literally watched two individuals that had classified documents, and they saw firsthand a completely different approach to each one.
And the Justice Department was never supposed to be that sort of, you know, picking and choosing of winners and losers based on political affiliation.
Everybody's supposed to get the same.
Be treated the same under our justice system.
That's right.
Pam Bond, do you know her?
I do.
Very well.
Very good friends with her.
Yeah, what do you think?
I think she's got, you know, she certainly has a difficult task ahead of her.
And Bill, think there's 115,000 employees in the Department of Justice and over 11,000 lawyers.
And many of those, I mean, you can see the level of bureaucracy she's dealing with.
But I think she's going to impress people.
She's going to be quieter than some of the appointees.
And then she's going to come out with some things.
And it's going to take people by surprise, but not those of us that know her.
She's very strong.
She's very smart.
And she waits until she has exactly what she needs before she will make an announcement.
What does she have to do?
So right now, there are a couple of things.
First, the level of bureaucracy in the Department of Justice is formidable, even for an attorney
general, for the deputy attorney general.
And what I mean by that is they've been given so much power over the years that it really can
become a battle between the political appointees and those that are inside.
the department. So she does have to get into the bureaucracy and weed it out, get rid of
everybody that isn't willing to follow the, you know, the lead of Pam Bondi and the head of
the executive, Donald Trump. And that's a full-time gig in and of itself.
Do you believe that there's a left-wing in culture? That's the best word. Do you believe there's
a left-wing culture in the justice apportionment? So I'm told that while Merrick Garland,
was Attorney General that a review of donations to political candidates was 90% Democrat among the
115,000 employees in the department. Has that ever been published anywhere? I don't know that
has been published. I think it was. Yeah. Yeah, it was an effort to try to ascertain based on who they
know are donating. And I don't think it included U.S. Attorney's offices. Okay. So this would be,
Washington, D.C. based.
You would, you didn't support Gates for Attorney General, did you? Matt Gates?
No. No. In fact, Bill, I know that my name was being thrown around and considered,
and I was surprised to see, you know, Matt Gates all of a sudden nominated. I think that that was,
I think that was an effort driven by Gates for whatever purposes, and we can all kind of speculate.
I don't think there was many close to the president that believed that was going to carry the day.
No, Trump didn't believe he did.
We had Pam Bonnie warming up in a bullpen.
All right, final question.
Now, the FBI is a mess.
And obviously, Pam Bonnie has to oversee Cash Patel in his job.
Do you believe that the FBI now, is it possible to reform that agency because of McKinsey?
Abe and Comey and all of these things that have happened over the last eight years.
Is it possible that Patel can get the ideology out of that?
Yeah, I do know Cash.
His determination is real and it is unmatched in a lot of ways.
And what I mean by that is I know that he wants to return the FBI to actually investigating crime
across the country. That's a refocusing of the leadership and regional leadership, state
leadership and national leadership. And I think he'll do it because that's his one mission. We
want to investigate, root out violent crime and drug trafficking across the country. And I think
that's, if they focus on that, they'll get it done. The one worry I have is that
with Bongino, they might go right. They might try to impose a conservative ideology on the
FBI and that wouldn't be good no you know politics is not good in our largest law enforcement
or in our largest you know organizations that the country depends on for national security
and for you know peace and and the pursuit of of happiness in this country depends on how
that that agency is being led. I'm not doing to my family because we're going to
Burlington for the event of liquidation candidacy. We're not going to find out of
The best of the best in articles of liquidation.

calient to lose it.

You set the table.

Fighting stains.
shouldn't be. OxyClean Maxforce. It's not clean unless it's oxyclean. Well, we all need protection,
that's for sure. And it's breaking down on a state level, particularly here in New York and
California. We do need a good FBI. Good to see again. Brett, thank you for taking a time.
We'll talk again soon, I hope. A couple of rulings here. Theodore Schweng, federal judge, Washington,
in D.C. He ruled that ICE can't go into certain houses of worship in pursuit of undocumented
migrants. This is a lawsuit that was filed by Quakers, Baptists, and Sikhs altogether. And this isn't a
final ruling. This judge is an Obama appointee. He just says, why, we have to look at, you know how
they do it. The federal, we have to look at this. All right, we have to pause this. Now,
My thinking is that if ICE has a criminal warrant, they can go anywhere.
You can't have a church that's protecting, you know, gangsters, dope dealers, whatever.
But you need a criminal warrant.
You can't just go in and sweep it.
All right.
So I think that's what the final ruling will be.
Another judge, Trevor McFadden, pointed by Trump, he's hearing the AP lawsuit against the White House.
as we reported yesterday, and you may know, the AP is being denied access to a lot of President Trump's activities
because the AP won't call the Gulf of Mexico, the Gulf of America.
So here, Judge McFadden said, no, I'm not pausing anything, because the president does have the power to do this, I think.
And the AP is a far-left agency.
There's no doubt about it.
We went over the woke stuff that they do.
It's crazy.
So that's why Trump is doing it.
He's using a golf thing as an excuse.
So the judge says, well, I'm taking a look at it,
but for now they can ban the AP.
Two updates.
Smart life.
So I get a lot of mail from very good people in the concierge realm.
And this is a real value to me, right?
Because thousands of you are concierge members of Bill O'Reilly.com.
You have access to me.
You can send me emails every day.
And we get back to you very quickly.
And in those emails, I can see what is bothering you, what you're concerned about.
And then if you have a problem, my crew will try to help you.
That's what the concierge program on Bill O'Reilly.com is all about.
way. I am very surprised at the level of knowledge about the U.S. Constitution.
Many very intelligent people, because you can't be an idiot and watch me, you just can't,
because we deal with very sophisticated analysis here. So if you're like, you're not watching
O'Reilly. All right? You're watching whatever. So, but people don't understand the difference
between the federal government, the state government, what the president can do, what an executive
order is. They're not getting it. They don't know there's three branches of government.
Okay? And they all have checks and balances. They don't know how this was put together.
Now, if you read my book Killing the Witches, all right, I lay it out as simple as I could possibly lay it out, how the founders put this together, and why?
And it had to do with the executions in Salem because of Benjamin Franklin, and that's the value of killing the witches.
But anyway, if you are a smart person in your life, you have to know what your rights are.
You have to know, all right, or you're going to get hosed, you're going to get screwed.
And most people, because of the collapse of the public school system, don't know.
They have no blank and clue.
Enter a woman that you may remember from her acting days.
Janine Turner, who has founded a group called Constituting America.
Constituting America.org is where they live.
And this organization is devoted to instructing Americans, particularly younger, about the Constitution.
Janine joins us down from North Texas.
How are you?
I haven't seen you in a while.
You're doing all right?
I am great.
Yeah.
All days.
All days here.
Good to see you, Bill O'Reilly.
This is a very worthy project, which is why you're sitting here talking to me.
but I want to know
why you did this
why you got involved with this
well I launched
I founded Constitution America in 2010
because of what you're talking about
I sat there
I had a wonderful educator in fifth grade
Mr. Ingram and he merged
the musical 1776
where we all had our parts
I was Martha Jefferson
and we rehearsed it all year long
with learning
about our founding documents. And it was that he really launched my career as an actress as well as my love
of our founding fathers. You know, my father was a West Pointer. So, you know, that was in the air,
as Ronald Reagan says. But in 2010, I was reading the Constitution with my daughter and I said, I want to
know more. And we need to, we need to value this document. It's just like you talk about. I mean,
we create a government that rules under our consent. So it's not we, the government. It's we,
the people. So we've been in existence for 15 years.
We have multi-tiered programs that I've created, and Kathy Gillespie and I have brought this foundation to life.
And it's everything from a speaking program to we're studying right now in our academic study and the editor of our academic study, Alexis de Toccoville's Democracy in America.
I'm doing a on-camera talk show about American exceptionalism, what that means.
And, you know, Bill, one of the things I think makes America exceptional are our founding documents.
Oh, no doubt about it.
With nobody else on earth has it.
So when you talk to the urchins, when somebody brings you in, and urchins are like seven to 24,
when you talk to them, and if you mention de Tocqueville, I mean, they're going to be, you know,
their head's going to hit the desk.
I'm going to know what you're talking about.
What do you lead with?
How do you get them engaged?
Well, that's a really good question because I've given over 600 speeches through our George Washington
speaking initiative through the foundation.
What I gleaned and what I created with the foundation is I walk in and I say, whether they're fifth grade, middle school, high school, college, I want you to feel empowered by the time I cross this threshold and leave.
I want you to understand that it's we the people, not we the government.
And so what I ask them, because, you know, I think a lot of times, Bill, in schools, it's just worksheets.
You know, this is what the government does.
This is how a bill is made.
This is how they do it.
And they don't understand that it's, you know, those bills are supposed to come.
come from the needs of we the people. So I get them engaged. I said, think about what you would like
to change in your neighborhood or what you want to keep in your neighborhood. Oh, that's great.
And they raise their hands and say that that'll get them. Yeah. So what do you want to change
about your circumstance about, you know, where you live and what's going on and then and then you can
stair step. Because then you get them personally involved. Um, final question. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead.
use the tools in the toolbox, which is the First Amendment.
So I'm like, first you, you don't just go out the streets and create a, you know, a peaceful protest of, you know, supposedly.
Let's talk about a petition, write down what you want.
Use your speech.
Use the press.
They're not golf clubs out of your, you know, toolbox or whatever it may be.
You call the press, you know, then call your assembly.
And then, you know, we talk about, everyone thinks when they vote, they're voting for the president.
Well, your representative is in your neighborhood, the legislature.
branch. And so you call your representative with your petition. And we walk through how the amendment
process works like this. And as you talk about, Bill, the checks of balance. Okay. The check
the balance. The group is constitutingamerica.org if you want to check out Janine's group.
I got one question on your God on the Go podcast. Now, this is something you do, how many times a week?
You know, I have a bevy of them logged at God on the Go. It was just picked up by Ever
green and converge to promote it nationally. I'm like, oh, they're interested in it. Great.
And what I, it's, it's going to be a weekly on camera, but at times it's been daily. But it's
God on the go. And it's about what I'm focusing on right now is God philosophy, because I think
we hear a lot about science and a lot about, you know, psychology. It's God's psychology,
not philosophy. God's psychology. We hear a lot about psychology on social media, but
But then in the dark of night, how do you apply that? And my faith is really, really monumental
to me. And so I'm sharing my faith and how we can merge the two together, but also just getting

Well, you know, maybe I snag them in with a cute little tagline or something.
and they decide to watch the show and maybe God will move them.
Because I really think it's God, you know, God and the Holy Spirit that goes in and says,
all right, you know, listen to what I'm saying.
But also, I think that science is great, but often science isn't enough.
And psychology isn't enough for the dark of night when people are suffering.
We really then have to find the strength somewhere.
And when we can think about, you know, that there's a universe out there, that God created us,
that God can help us, that he's right there with us,
and that we can get through these things through the power of God.
And, you know, look, we're getting ready to find out that we're not the only ones in the universe either.
So I love, I can't wait for all this to be revealed.
So that's the way, the way I think it happens just to.
Well, you're doing a lot of good work.
You're doing a lot of good work, Janine.
Thank you very much for that.
And, you know, if you get anything that you feel is, you know, you say we're not alone in the universe, all right.
You know, when you get.
I don't think we're alone.
You know, I'm a reporter, so I examine what the data is.
They're going to release this UFO thing soon, I guess, along with Kennedy and King.
Yeah, all of those papers, so we'll be anxious to see it.
Okay, well, I'm going to go on record saying that there are other stars and planets out there
and we're not alone in the universe.
All right.
You heard it here.
Thank you, Jenae.
We'll talk soon.
Appreciate it.
Here's a bogus story, and this drives me nuts.
So the Philadelphia Eagles won the Super Bowl.
A tabloid called the Sun reported that the Eagles players voted not to go to the White House to be honored.
The story is bogus.
Not true.
Went all over the place.
I don't even live in this world, this internet world.
I saw it.
You know, I got to peruse headlines and get information.
That's what I do.
I don't go into these stupid chat.
rooms or whatever that. But it's just phony. And this happens every blanken day. And it just
drives me crazy. So we'll see the Philadelphia Eagles at the White House and be very skeptical.
This day in history, February 25th, 1860, 165 years ago, Abraham Lincoln gave the speech that
propelled him to the presidency. See, nobody knew Abe.
He was a congressman out in Illinois, he ran for the Senate, he lost.
Abe comes to New York City.
He writes a speech, and he finished it today, 165 years ago today.
The Cooper Union speech, here was the key line, quote,
but we, while our votes will prevent slavery, allow slavery to spread into the national territories
and to overrun us here in these free states.
If our sense of duty forbids this, then let us stand by our duty fearlessly and effectively.
So this was the first abolitionist speech by Abraham Lincoln.
And it even got into newspapers in the South.
It was picked up by the press here big time in New York City.
Cooper Union still exists.
I walked by that building last week.
And so Lincoln gives a speech.
And all of a sudden he blows up.
And he's elected president the November following, he wipes out John Breckenridge in the electoral and popular vote.
It never would have happened had Lincoln not given the Cooper Union speech.
You should look it up, read it.
That propelled him.
Lincoln's the greatest president this country ever had by far.
Back in a moment.
All right, here's the final thought of the day.
I am sending the manuscript for confronting evil to my publisher tomorrow, St. Martin's Press.
Finishing it up tonight.
Here's how this works.
It takes a year to write these books.
And we have had 19 number one bestsellers.
I am the best-selling nonfiction author in the world because we put a lot into this.
Oh, it's hard work.
So it takes a year, six months of research, six months to write.
I've got a new researcher, Josh Hammer now.
Martin Dugard is writing his own books, and we wish him the best.
And I'm the storyteller, that Irish kind of raconteur.
I drive the story, but Josh gives me the research.
And where do you read the Putin chapter?
This book is out September 9th, Confronting Evil.
You can pre-order it.
But where you read Putin, stuff I had no.
idea. And he's evil. Putin. No doubt about it. So anyway, we have finished it. Confirying the
president's 23 consecutive weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Whoa, that is almost
impossible to do in this day and age. Not like it was when I first put out killing Lincoln.
These phones have just wrecked people's concentration spans, but huge book confronting the president.
So I hope you, if you become a concierge or a premier member on Bill O'Reilly Dockerm, you get these books free.
Get your choice of book free.
Thank you for watching and listening to the No Spin News.
Hope you enjoyed it tonight.
We'll see you more.
