Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News for Tuesday, April 4th, 2020, stand up for your country. You know, April 4th should be April Fool's Day, not April 1st, because this whole fiasco regarding Donald Trump and the Manhattan District attorney is now turning into a farce. There's a difference between a fiasco and a farce. A fiasco is there's just chaos running around and nobody really knows what's happening.

There's plenty of that. But a farce is when you have reality twisted into something that isn't real. That's a fiction. It looks like that's what this prosecution is. So all the pundits, They're all wrong, almost 100% down the line, except for me, thank you. Gag order, of course, there was no gag order. There's going to be a mug shot, and he's going to be in, you know, all of that. It was a procedure where Donald Trump went in, okay, and he came out about 45 minutes later, and he went to the airport to give his speech tonight. So let me just recap what's happened.

in the global picture, the big picture, because I don't know enough about the indictments. There are 34 of them, all felonies. How can he commit 34 felonies with one transaction to Stormy Daniels or this McDougal woman? I don't know, but I got a guess who's going to explain that to us. So anyway, I entitled this Talking Points memo. It's a Trump world, after all, would apologize, with apologies to Disney. So for the past seven years, Donald Trump has dominated the news cycle almost every day.

Seven years, never in history. We've seen anybody, any human being do this. So every single day it's Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. And now we're at the top of the mountain, I would say third in importance. The first was when he was elected, second when he was inaugurated, and now this. But it's always Trump, seven years. And Americans have polarized, everybody knows that. I'm not going to insult you by telling you things that you know.

But today, I felt sad for my country. I didn't feel proud of the United States today. Because I know a bit more about the personal end of this than most people do. I know the district attorney in Manhattan is an ideologue who believes that this country, the country that he's sworn to serve is bad. Alvin Bragg thinks we live in a terrible country, and Donald Trump is one of the reasons why it's terrible. That's where you start with Bragg.

You don't start with the law or him investigating. He doesn't want to investigate. 50% of all the felony arrests referred to his office are either dismissed or busted down a misdemeanors, which means there's no punishment. So he has no interest in enforcing the law, Alvin Bragg, he wants politics. He wants to destroy the system that we have in place now in the United States and New York, state, and city. That's Alvin Bragg's goal. And it's beyond any reasonable

doubt, I've said that a few times this week. There's no two sides to that story. Man, it's not a patriot. He doesn't think his country's noble. He wants to tear it to pieces. And what better way to do it than to get Trump. All right, we proved that yesterday. If you didn't see yesterday's talking points, you should go to Bill O'Reilly.com and watch it because it sets up today and the rest of the week, who Alvin Bragg is, what he said in the past.

All that is in yesterday's talking points. Okay. So even while this was going on, this indictment in Lower Manhattan, in California, the Ninth Circuit federal judges ruled that Stormy Daniels has to pay Donald Trump another $125,000. Did you know that? So that means she's on the hook to Trump for about $450,000. Stormy Daniels has to pay him. Why? Because Ms. Daniels accused Donald Trump of defamation and the case

was thrown out. All right? So this happened March 22nd, 2022. So the judge in the case ordered Daniels to pay the court costs and Trump lawyer costs, which are $450,000. It was unbelievable because at the very moment that Trump was being indicted, a formal indictment inside the building in New York City, the ruling from the Ninth Circuit came down in California. California, saying it's Tommy Daniels is to pay him $450,000. So you can see the word fiasco is not even close to describing what's going on here. Now for me, I'm not an attorney. I mean, you know, if somebody breaks the law, I think they should be punished.

It just depends on what the extent is. So Hillary Clinton's campaign was fine because Mrs. Clinton used campaign money to gin up a phony Russian collusion situation. And she was found guilty of doing that. But instead of being charged criminally, it was a civil beef, federal election commission beef. She had to pay a fine. Now, that's what should have happened here, in my opinion, with this Stormy Daniels, Karen McDougal, whatever. Okay. All right, if you did something and misuse some funds, designated for your campaign or for your business that helped your campaign, then you get fine. It's a civil beef, right? You don't get dragged in.

Trump knows all this, by the way, and this just hardens his heart, and he'll speak, as I said, in Mar-a-Lago tonight, and I'll tell you exactly what he's going to say. He's going to say this country is corrupt. He's going to say that the country is going down the drain, and that if you will American people allow this, you're not going to have a country anymore. And there's some truth to what he's saying. And the networks are going to have to take some of it, even those who hate Trump,

because it'll be a historic speech. And he'll raise $10 million for his reelection effort, and he'll go up into polls. And remember, his reelection campaign is different from donating money to him personally. Okay? And he can use the donations that come in to pay his attorneys. And just to defend himself against all of these charges, it'll cost about $50 million.

And that's our justice system. $50 million. Now, I'm a historian, and you all know that. So I just want to refer back to a man named Robert Ray. Robert Ray was a special counsel appointed to investigate Bill Clinton. Okay, he looked into all the Clinton's alleged crimes, okay, which included perjury, included whitewater stuff, all of that. So Ray came back, and I'm going to put this up on a screen, January 2001, with a statement. I'm going to read it to you.

President Clinton has acknowledged responsibility of his actions. He has admitted that he knowingly gave evasance. and misleading questions in the Jones deposition, that's Paula Jones, and that his conduct was prejudicial to the administration of justice. He has acknowledged that some of his answers were false. This is perjury. He has agreed to a five-year suspension of his Arkansas law license, and he's agreed not to seek attorney's fees in connection with this matter. The nation's interests have been served, and therefore I decline prosecution. Now, Bill Clinton could have been prosecuted on perjury charges. Absolutely could have been.

And he would have been convicted in a court of law. But Ray, the special prosecutor, put the country above that charge. That's what he did. Now, a lot of people, they don't remember that. And then I wrote my column over the weekend on Gerald Ford, pardoning Richard Nixon. So you should read that as well. So there's precedent here in our justice system to put the country the country's welfare, ahead of personal politics.

You're a precedent. Not here. Now, there's a lot of speculation, you know how much I hate that. I just hate that. So I'm not going to do that. Tomorrow, I'm going to get the best legal advice in the world, and then I'm going to give you an assessment of the 34 felony counts. But it requires study.

It requires thought. it requires consultation, which I will do. Now, one other thing before we advance this program, I'm going to be on WABC Radio live tonight. If you don't live in New York City, you can just punch up Wabcradio.com, and you can listen. You can listen all over the world. Okay? I'm going to answer questions, and by that time, I will have some of my research done.

Okay? So that might be something you want to, you want to partake in. You can call us and ask us anything you want. And that's the memo. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show podcast, reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on the topics the mainstream media won't.

So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch or getting ready for the drive home, new episodes of the Sean Spicer Show podcast drop at 2 p.m. East Coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcast, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. 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. Every week, I'll sit down for candid conversations. with Washington's most powerful disruptors, lawmakers, lawmakers, and even the president of the United States. These are the leaders shaping the future of America and the world.

Listen to Podforce One with me, Miranda Devine, every week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. You don't want to miss an episode. Okay, quickly to President Biden, and then we'll get back to the Trump stuff. He didn't do anything today, as usual. He had some kind of meeting to discuss American science and technology. All right, he didn't do anything.

In fact, they closed up shop at three, and they kicked all the press out of the White House grounds at three. He had to take a nap, you know, Joe. Joe's not commenting on any of this, and that's smart. Biden shouldn't get involved with this at all. That's a smart political player. It's smart for the country. Don't say anything.

Okay. Now, a lot of people don't know this, but Biden does not have the power to pardon Donald Trump on a state beef, but Governor Kathy Hockel of New York does. So Hockel could have put an end to this any time she wants by issuing a pardon to Donald Trump for all and any crimes committed in New York State. But she'll never do it because she's a product of the Democrat machine that wants to destroy Donald Trump. But she could do it if she would loved her country, she would do it. I'd do it, even if I were in his shoes, which I'd never be. But if I were a Democrat elected by the machine, and I knew that all of my supporters would be angry with me, I still would have done the pardon for the good of the country and not to put

everybody through this. Okay? So Hocal could have done that, but of course, you know, that would require honor honor and politicians so anyway let's bring in sheriff richard judana gerino am i saying that right sheriff jerdino jerdino thanks for having me all right and the sheriff presides in um the mohawk valley region fulton county one of my favorite places in new york state finger layer. It's just beautiful up there. It's beautiful in the summer and fall. In February, a little chilly. But anyway, the reason that I asked my staff to book the sheriff is that he has been a judge also in New York State and knows the state law as well as anyone. Okay, from what you just heard, 12 minutes of me bloviating, did I do anything that is not

grounded in fact, sheriff? Everything you said is grounded in fact. What you and I share is, we don't believe in talking without the facts. So we know he's been indicted on 34 counts. The only explanation to answer your opening question is if they're charging each check he may have written or money transfer separately,

then it could be 34 counts. But until you and I have more of the indictment that tells us that it, involved starry daniels or the other woman we don't know okay so so it's very confusing that way but you can't in new york he even if he was convicted of 34 counts he can only be sentenced to two counts consecutively because there's limits on how much prison you can get based on the number of counts right but he's not going to get any prison i think i think the case will be thrown out but just as a stair step so brag is 34 counts felony counts

Okay, felonies. Thirty-four felonies. I'm going, wait a minute. And as you said, that will be explained. I guess it'll be explained when people study the actual indictment and what Bragg is alleged. Now, he did this, in my opinion, to just throw everything against the wall, so it sounds so bad that people criticizing Bragg, and they are legion, would back away a little. I think this is more of a PR. move than a legal move. I agree 100%. We have to go back to Bragg's race for Manhattan DA. When Bragg ran, he said he was going to pursue Trump that he had worked on over 100 cases

in Tish Jane, the Attorney General's Office. Interestingly, he never mentioned that out of those 100 cases, there were no criminal charges. There's one civil lawsuit that is full of holes that will never go anywhere, in my opinion, that had to do with evaluation of

property that he's selling. So Bragg specifically said, I'm running, and one of my points, one of my platforms is to get Trump. Right. And so that's one of the attacks. I'll tell you, there's going to be several attacks on that indictment. And that's probably the best way to look at it. Yeah, he should have recused himself. And we used those sound bites last night, Sheriff. So we documented it. Again, you go to bill o'Reilly.com. You can see the transcripts and all that we've done if you're a premium concierge member. Now, Everybody on the Trump side, Team Trump, wants a change of venue, but what they don't understand is a change of venue doesn't eliminate Bragg and the judge who Trump hates, they would follow, say they move it up to Fulton County where you are, the venue, Bragg and the judge would follow as attachments to the case, correct? Correct. But this case doesn't reach the level for a change of venue.

And I'll tell you a couple of reasons why. You can't say we need to change a venue because they didn't vote for me. You can't say we need to change a venue because it's high profile. Donald Trump is going to be high profile wherever he is. And those things, and especially when he's contributed to the circus by commenting a lot and making posts that are not necessarily helpful, then you don't have the ability to say, well, I haven't contributed to this. So a change of venue is probably not realistic.

in this case. Something's interesting, though, and it ties into the whole political end of this. The Lee Zeldon ran for governor against Hockel. In Manhattan, Lee Zeldon lost 350,000 votes. In the state, Lee Zeldon lost 350,000 votes. And one of Lee Zeldon's statements was, I'm going to remove Bragg.

So that shows you that Brad's got a very powerful constituency, and that one county could have changed who was our governor. Well, and it's worse than that. So in the presidential election, 87% of voters in New York City, the five boroughs, voted for Biden. So Trump's constituency in New York City is 13%. So how do you get a fair jury at that overwhelming level where they don't like or approve of Donald Trump? That would be my argument, if I would Takapino, the lead attorney on the Trump team, I would say, look, we can't get a jury pool here that doesn't hate him. Well, in this case, jury selection would allow us to ask those questions.

I know, but come on. Well, I don't think there's enough to do a change of venue. But I do think there's other attacks on BRAC. And I think the fact that the Fed, the Federal Election Commission, the feds, if you mentioned, have already. passed on this case so they already recognized there's not enough there so this truly is indicting a ham sandwich and okay i agree to you the piling out of the 34 felonies is to more political yeah it's more PR and and we will have brag tomorrow i'm not going to use them tonight because again i want to the audience needs to understand that this is a news analysis show

and i want my analysis to be sharp and fact based and in order to do that i've got to study you know, like if Bragg says something at 4 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, I've got to then research whether he's saying it's true or not. So that takes time. And that's why I want to delay this. If you want instant analysis, go watch the cables. You're not going to learn anything there because they don't know anything, although Jonathan Turley is really good, the law professor from Georgetown. Now, the stair step here in New York State is that Trump's lawyers will try to get this thrown out, okay? And if they fail, they'll keep appealing that, and that will take time, correct? Correct. But at the arraignment, a good judge would have set a schedule for motions,

for discovery, and for the trial date. This trial date probably would have been set out at the end of the year or next year, a year away, right in the middle of an election here. The other thing is they have several grounds to argue. One is the statute of limitations, even though it's a felony. One of the arguments they made before was, well, Trump's out of state. So that tolls the statute. But Trump is out of state until you call him to come in state, and he would be available to the courts. So I think that falls by the wayside for the DAs.

The other thing is they're going to look at the statute of limitation, which we mentioned, I just mentioned, but they're going to look at the fact, as we said, they've already declined prosecution in the federal case. And this is a very unique legal pattern where they're trying to piggyback state felony on top of a misdemeanor in federal. It's unheard of. What if there isn't any linkage in the brag indictment to the election? But if he doesn't have anything about the federal election in there? because, again, we don't know at this juncture what he's alleging. Then that would take the federal decision not to indict off the table, correct? That would take it off the table.

But interestingly, go back to our motion to dismiss. The motion to dismiss is going to look at Cohen, and Cohen himself is a convicted perjure. Right. They had to have more than Cohen. Okay. Yeah. He didn't come forward ahead of time, though. That's important.

Well, the point I want to make is it's going to be appeal to say they lose and they don't get the case dismissed. They take it to another appellate court or state court, state court, and then they can shift into the federal system. If the New York state Supreme Court, which would have to go there, says, no, no, this is fine. You have to try them here in New York. Well, then they'll flip on over to the federal system. all right so that's going to take an enormous amount of time correct well a lot of that is the grounds for appeal this is an interesting case and again if the grounds for appeal are on the state level it might just stop at the state and they say have the trial and then take up the appeal afterwards

so that's another issue that you and i can't answer tonight till we see everything in the indictment so it's it's interesting in that regard your folks up in mohawk county uh uh I know it's hard to generalize, but you see a lot of people and everybody knows who you are. What do they think of this? It's split. If you like Trump or like his policies, then you think it's a bogus indictment. If you don't like Trump, don't like his policies, think he's coarse, then you think finally somebody got him. But I think most people in the country just, they don't want the chaos.

They want to move on. Yeah. They've been going, I don't know if you recall, what Chuck. Schumer, and I'm sure you do recall, when Trump was first elected in 2017, Schumer said, you went after the CIA and the FBI, seven ways to Sunday, they can get you. And ever since he's been president, they've been after him in various states, various levels of courts, and yet it's like roadrunner, the coyotes after you. They keep chasing him, claiming there's legal issues, legal matters, crimes, and then there's nothing.

So it really undercuts the whole theory that this is based on equal justice. Yeah, I am right. We demolished that yesterday with Alvin Bragg, and the whole system in general about no one is above the law when we proved every which way that plenty of people are above the law. Hey, Sheriff, thanks very much. We really appreciate your expertise. We hope you come back, and very nice for you to help us out. Hey, thank you very much for having me on, Bill. Hey, I'm Caitlin Becker, the host of the New York Postcast, and I've got to have you.

exactly what you need to start your weekdays. Every morning, I'll bring you the stories that matter, plus the news people actually talk about, the juicy details in the worlds of politics, business, pop culture, and everything in between. It's what you want from the New York Post wrapped up in one snappy show. Ask your smart speaker to play the NY Postcast podcast, listen and subscribe on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, so one of the factors in this prosecution is that George Soros gave a lot of money to get Alvin Bragg elected, and Republicans have pointed that out. I'm sure you've heard it. So the Washington Post, which hates Trump, sticks up for George Soros.

So let me walk you through this. This is a fascinating situation. There is a far-left radical group called Color of Change. It's run by a guy named Rashad Robinson, headquartered in Oakland. They're the ones that came after me, Color of Change. And they are very well funded, mostly by George Soros. So in 2021, the last tax returns we have, okay, Soros gave Color of Change 1 million dollars because it had pledged Color of Change to give a million dollars to Alvin Bragg's campaign

for DEA. Soros wrote a check for a million. Went to Color of Change. Again, pledged to help Soros. In reality, Color of Change scammed Soros somewhat. They only spent $420,000 helping Alvin Bragg, which is an astronomical amount of money in a district attorney race. But they didn't do the whole million, because I guess the color of change people had to, you know, maybe they saw a nice little real estate buy or something like that. Anyway, Soros under tremendous pressure, issued a public statement, and it said, quote, As for Alavin Bragg, as a matter of fact, I did not contribute to his campaign, and I don't know him. I think some of the right would rather focus on far-fetched conspiracy theories than on serious charges against the former president, unquote.

That was March 31st, 2003. So Soros then, oh, I don't know anything to do with it, which is a total lie. Soros knew what color of change is going to do with his million. okay total lot so enter the washington post and a guy named glenn kessler who is their fact checker right sure glenn he says republicans are being slippery here this is the washington post claiming sorrows funded brag is simply false but many rely on more ambiguous phrase of backed which is technically correct by several degrees of separation. What a bunch of...

Okay. This is the media that we have here. And this is why Soros gets away with what Soros does. Okay? Now, Soros is not breaking any laws. I get letters every day. Why is any injunuchs? He has a battery of attorneys to make sure he stays in the campaign finance

legal zone. However, his son, Soros is 92, all right? His son, Alexander is 37. Alexander Soros has visited the White House between October 21 and December 22 15 times. 15 times. Now, we told you about this in January when Alexander Soros was invited to the Macron reception, the French president at the White House. Okay, there he is with Nancy. So why would he, what's going on? There's Schumer and Alexander. Well, the Democrats are funded by Alexander Soros, who's right, you know, his father's 92 and he's right in the mix. Now, will you ever hear that from any other news agency in the country? You will not. Okay, you will not.

This is the corruption that has entered our entire system of politics and justice. Awful. And by the way, Chuck Schumer, the Senate Majority Leader, he got 2 million in 2018 from the Soros people. Okay, overseas, another ISIS leader has been waxed by a drone. His name was Ahmad al-Jubori. He was in charge of terrorism in Europe. And yesterday, boom, he's off the planet. So killing the killers, if you have not read it, this is the book telling you what our government is doing

to fight terrorism. And as I've said a couple of times, Biden has not changed this policy from Trump. The Trump administration was the architect of it, and they destroyed ISIS mostly. Biden has followed. Interesting story. Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, will meet with the president of Taiwan tomorrow in Los Angeles. Her name is Saye In Wen. Chinese are very angry and are threatening whatever because McCarthy is meeting with her. Now, we can't back down on these threats. So if McCarthy wants to meet the president of Taiwan, he should meet the president of Taiwan. But there could be unintended consequences.

It's holy week. It doesn't feel like it, but it's only week. Passover, Thursday, good Friday, Easter Sunday, okay? So there is a study out from the cooperative election people, 60,000 Americans interviewed, and they asked about religious affiliation. So Generation Z are Americans born after 1997. Okay? My urchins are Generation Z. according to the study 48% of generation Z has no religious affiliation at all this is we're going to be

Norway Denmark and Sweden pretty soon okay this is the younger generation now it is true some of them will come back and try to develop some kind of spiritual lives that attach to religion. Some of them. But this is half of the entire generation. We don't need no religion. We don't need any of that. So I've been having some conversations about this with the Gen Zs. And when I bring up the origins of Judaism and Christianity, they're stunned because they don't know anything about it. They don't know. anything about it. They're not taught in public school.

Their parents couldn't care less. Baby booners largely have defected from religion. Nah, it's too inconvenient. I don't want to go to mass. I'd rather smoke pot. So anyway, rent the movie killing Jesus. It's four bucks. Pay-per-view.

If you can strap those Gen Zs or everybody else in the chair and watch that movie, it might matter. And it's perfect for Holy Week. And if you read the book, killing Jesus, you'll really understand why we have Holy Week. And what good it has done this civilization on this planet. 2.5 billion people believe Jesus was God. Why?

Why? killing Jesus. Smart life. Okay. So the Gen Zs and everybody else that's younger than them have no idea about money. None. As because, again, school doesn't teach them about money. All they know is that their parents and grandparents give them money and they spend it.

So here's a smart life tip if you care about your children or grandchildren. If you don't care about them, this tip does you no good. Open a bank account, join your name, their name, grandparents and parents. Whatever the urchin puts in the bank account, you match it. And then every month, they get a written statement. They can look and see what their savings account is doing. So you might hire the urchin to shovel snow if you live in Minnesota or babysit if they're over 11 or cut the lawn or anything and then you say you want to spend it foolishly or you want

to put in a bank and I'll match when you put in a bank and then by that way it grows and grows and grows and grows smart life tip this day in history April 4th 2008 all right a letter written by Abraham Lincoln, on April 5th, tomorrow, 1864, fetches $3.4 million at auction, Sotheby's. Okay, what was this letter? Well, you know that Abraham Lincoln, all right, signed two executive orders known as the Emancipation Proclamation, where he freed all the slaves being held in the southern states.

That was the Emancipation Proclamation. Well, a teacher in Massachusetts wrote Lincoln a letter, and all of our students, 192 of them, signed the letter, saying, Mr. President, please free all the slaves everywhere, not just in the South, because there were territories that had slavery. Lincoln read the letter and then wrote back to the teacher, quote, please tell these little people, I am very glad their young hearts are so full of just and generous sympathy. And that, while I have not that power to grant all they ask, I trust

they will remember that God has, and it seems he wills to do it. Okay. So that was the letter that sold for $3.4 million. Now, one other Lincoln item sold for more than that. It was a copy of the Emancipation Proclamation signed by Lincoln himself. It was owned by the Kennedy family, Robert Kennedy family. And it fetched, let's see, do I have the number here? It fetched almost 4 million, right, in 2010. Boy, I'd love to have that. Wouldn't you love to have that?

I have a very good Lincoln letter. I do, but boy, that Emancipation Proclamation, You'd have to sell your house, but it might be worth it. All right, that's a history. You got a good mail segment and a final thought. I had an adventure last night I'll tell you about. We'll be right back. Let's go to the mail.

Jacqueline, concierge member, direct access to me, Jacqueline. Bill, every news outlet I watch, all conservative, had said that Donald Trump could possibly be handcuffed. Liberal news outlets also say with glee, unlike conservative news. You, however, stated on the no spend news a few weeks ago, The Secret Service would not allow it. Thank you for being honest. Look, I told you they were going to be a mugshot.

Not going to be any, you know, any dog and pony show at all. Because the Secret Service, I'm not going to do it. D. Allen, Dallas, Texas, Mr. O, the Trump criminal case could last for years. He could already be elected president by the time we hear the verdict. True. But I think it's going to, I think things are going to happen quickly in his favor. But I don't know. I don't know all the facts. That was a guess. That was a guess. Jason Hunt, Scottsdale, Arizona. I believe President Trump's policies were good and beneficial.

I'm just worried that hope for unity among the American people would not be able to survive a second term by him. It's a good point. Douglas Melly, Peyton, Colorado. I disagree with your talking points memo on Monday, O'Reilly. you asserted there is a political war, war would imply two sides using instruments of power against each other. What we are seeing is a political attack by the left. Oh, come on. Conservative outlets are fighting back hard. If you listen to talk radio, you've got to know that. Donna, concierge member, thank you, Donna. I feel bad for my grandkids. I'm honestly starting to hate this country and the world. Don't do that. History goes in cycles.

And sometimes, we're in a down cycle now, no doubt about it, down cycle. Sometimes shock is needed to reverse the down cycle. Don't hate your country. The country has done more for you and your grandkids and everybody else, and you know it. You know it. Anna, thank you, Bill, for always giving us the truth and nothing but the truth. I rely on your comments because I believe you want the best for America. I do.

And I want the best for you, Anna. personally. Kate, Hill Country, Texas, beautiful. Besides an apathetic and distracted population, atmosphere of pull of false data and lies, we have to continue with cheating during elections. Okay, but remember, this is a state issue, the cheating. So Texas, I think, is pretty good. Florida turned it around. Georgia, they've gone over. everything there. I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but I'm not as worried that some people are. Way Johnson, Missouri, Louisiana, I hope you're right that Joe Biden cannot get reelected because of grocery store prices, but you and every other commentator

was wrong in the midterm. It's correct. I was very surprised, but it's worse now. Donald McKeough, Coral Springs, Florida, O'Reilly, you could not have said anything more truthful that when you do not prosecute perjury, you have no legal system. We don't have a civil legal system. Stay out of court. Best advice I can give you. Stay out. Bill, I'm reading the last days of Jesus, a wonderful book for Easter, and God bless you for writing it. The Last Days of Jesus is the book that encapsulates killing Jesus. It's a shorter version. Still very worthy, last days of Jesus.

Okay, Team Normal, now more than ever, got to get the Team Normal gear. All right, show people where you stand, have lively discussions, no ideology, no politics, and Team Normal, just people who love their country. Where did the day no sophism, S-O-P-H-I-S-M, and writing to me, Bill at Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, name in town if you wish to will opine, right back with the final thought. Final thought today, congrats to the University of Connecticut for winning the college basketball championship. I didn't see the game because I was a Yankee Stadium last night watching the Yanks waxed the Philadelphia Phillies. and I was in the front row, okay, and I was a great experience. I actually got kind of an ovation when I walked down to the seats.

I was, because usually it's mixed. You know, I got my fans, but I had people who hate me. But this was like a love fest, and it was so gratifying. Thank you, if you were a Yankee Stadium last night. And the hot dogs, they're phenomenal. But Yankee Stadium is part of New York. Come to New York from out of town, there's no more historical sporting place in the world. Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrick, you know it all.

But just to go there and see the majesty of the place. You know, I grew up on the Mets, but since I know the hierarchy in the Yankees now, they become friends. So I root for both teams. But I just stood there and watched last night, full moon, beautiful night, a little chilly, but I was just, I could. You know, I'm lucky to be here. I'm lucky to be in the front row of Yankee Stadium watching this game. And that's the truth. Thank you for watching and listening to the No Spin News.

We'll have really, really good coverage of the Trump thing tomorrow, so we hope you come back.
