Hey Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the No Spin News, Tuesday, May 21st, 2024, stand up for your country. Well, I watched a little cable news last night. You know, I don't usually do that because I'm so busy and I don't learn a lot. I'll watch a bit of News Nation because that's more information driven these days. But I just don't want to listen to ideology. You know, I don't know who does in my circle. That's why the cable news industry is declining.

I mean, they're very short on facts that are long on opinion, which is okay once you hear the opinion given, but then when you hear it 100 times, your head wants to blow off. Anyway, this is not what I really want to talk about. So I was looking to see if there was going to be analysis of President Biden's Morehouse College speech, which was just racist to the core. Everybody knows that we covered it yesterday. Very little of it.

Yeah, a little bit on Fox News, but not much. Instead, it was the Trump trial all day long. And unfortunately, because I don't like to do this kind of analysis, because I'm not in the courtroom, room, but I have to because this Trump trial is wrapping up. So that is the subject of the talking points memo. So the trial has turned in Trump's favor. And that doesn't mean anything other than what the jury has been presented with. Okay, it doesn't mean anything other than that. I wrote a message of the day, which Trump actually quoted before he went into the trial on Monday yesterday. And that's still around. You should read it. You should read our messages every day on

Bill O'Reilly.com, if you have the time, it's very short. But this whole trial from the beginning, and I wrote a Sunday column on it, about fear and loathing and how this has destroyed the justice system in New York State, which it has. This whole thing never should have happened, but it has. So where we are is the trial is over as far as evidence is concerned. And then next, a week from today, closing arguments, and then the jury deliberation. There's not anything else coming. It's all over. But before it ended, there were two things that happened.

So Trump's defense attorneys called in a guy named Costello, okay, who's a friend of Donald Trump. And he was supposed to tell the jury that this whole thing was conjured up by Michael Cohen. So Robert Costello was an advisor to the Trump organization. So apparently in the courtroom the prosecution was objecting to a lot of the questions for Costello. And the judge was sustaining the objection. And Costello didn't like it. And Costello started making faces and going, geez, stuff like that. Okay.

Now, the judge, and the judge's reputation is in tatters, in my opinion, clears the courtroom, throws everybody out of the courtroom except the lawyers and Costello. And he yells at Costello. He goes, you got to stop doing that. which, as a judge, he should have done. I'm the judge, and some witness is disparaging me with facial expressions and going, oh, I shut the guy up fast. However, in this case, because this judge Marchan has allowed so much garbage into,

the jury, before they got booted out, has to know that the judge has bending over backwards to convict Trump, which is why even if Trump does get convicted by the jury, which I don't believe you well, the appeal is almost guaranteed. The case will be overthrown because Marchant's a terrible job. Anyway, Costello and a judge gets yelled at, court is clear, they come back, and then they continue with nothing. Costello didn't say anything that I can find that would sway any juror at all. It was a waste of time, in my humble opinion.

Could be wrong, wasn't there. But the big thing is that before that, Michael Cohen, the prosecution's chief witness, confessed on the stand to stealing $30,000 from the Trump Organization. Okay? So now you're in a jury box and you got a convicted perjurer, Michael Cohen, went to jail for perjury and tax evasion. And now he's admitting on the stand, nobody knew this, that he stole $30,000 for Trump. So, come on. This is the prosecution's main witness.

That would be like bringing in baby-faced Nelson, and if you don't know who that is, you're he killing the mob. He was a gangster, a bank robber, to talk about another bank robber, whether he did it or not. So I'm a juror, I just go, look, this whole thing is just a catastrophe. This whole trial is just, you know, shouldn't even be. And that's why I quit, because beyond a reasonable doubt is just what those words mean. And there's a reasonable doubt about everything, Michael Cohen says.

Everything. All right? I'm a simple man. I'm a logical man. I'm sitting here going, this is insane. This whole thing is so far out of control. So I'm sticking to my original prediction on the Trump trial. There'll be a hung jury.

there are some people on that jury who don't care about the evidence that don't care about reasonable that they don't care about anything they hate Trump a minute ago, I don't care I want to hurt it but I think there are

some jurors who are honest and if you are honest you can't vote to convict you can't I still to this day don't know what the crime is I'm not a stupid man okay

now Even the left-wing pundits on television, no, the trial has turned to Trump's favor. Roll the tape. If the defense version of this story holds that Michael Cohen lied to the jury about this call, the prosecution is in trouble. I think up until this point, I was actually optimistic that the prosecution was making its case. But I think what happened on Thursday actually really makes it very, very difficult for the prosecution to push forward. There you go.

Now, there are a few die-hards. You know, if you hate Trump, but, you know, most people know, no, this is not a good situation. Now, once Trump, if Trump is not convicted, then he runs. runs while with it. If he is convicted, then he appeals and he runs while with that. So that's what's going to happen. And that's a memo. All right, Joe Biden, the president of the United States, in case you didn't know, goes up to New Hampshire, Nashua. And he talks about the PACT Act. That's PACT, and it extends eligibility for VA health care to vets with toxic exposures. Good. Good. And the more health benefits to our veterans, the better. I'm with you on that, Joe. I'm with you. So then Joe gets out of New Hampshire. He goes down to Boston for a fundraiser. And the governor, Healy, and the Boston mayor, Michelle Wu, are going to greet him. You know, as a Democrat town, you all know that. But also greeting him are going to be hundreds of protests.

pro-Palestinians who are calling the President of the United States genocide Joe. So they'll be there all over the city of Boston. And we show you some of it tomorrow, but doesn't get violent. You know, I really don't need that. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war, shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold.

You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. New Harris poll on Trump v. Biden, Trump's up six points in this Harris poll. The samples even between Democrats from the Fair Poll, Trump 53, Biden, 47. But I caution you, this poll is going to change dramatically over the next three months. In the middle or the end of September, they start to mean something. But now it's just kind of wave, goes in waves.

But here's an interesting question saying Paul Harris. Do you approve or disapprove of the job of President Biden's doing on Israel? Only 36% approve. There is no disapproval number, which is so strange. I don't know why, but only 36% according to this poll, approve of the way Biden's handling Israel Hamas. Now, Joe Biden gave his speech Sunday night

in front of the NAACP in Detroit, Michigan. The White House today released a transcript of nine mistakes that President Biden made in the speech. The White House is doing this, not O'Reilly. Okay, I'm usually a fact checker, but... So the first one is that Biden said during the speech that he was vice president during the pandemic.

And that Barack Obama sent him to Detroit to help out with COVID. Okay, this isn't even close. This is five years after Biden left the vice presidency. Okay, so the White House says, no. What Biden meant was not the pandemic. He meant the recession. What? know what this is. And this just goes to prove my hypothesis that Joe Biden does not know what he's

saying. He does not know. Now, this wasn't written for him. He just rifted. He doesn't know. Now, I know every day I get liars. No, he's a liar. I get letters. No, he's a lawyer. He knows what he's saying. He doesn't know what he's saying. Okay? You don't say you were vice president during COVID, what had happened five years after you left, okay, if you know what you're saying. I don't know what else I have to do to, I'll come to your house. All right. Then it was a whole bunch of other stuff, it's little stuff. This is my favorite, though.

Quote, I protected and expanded the Affordable Care Act, saving millions of families $800,000. What he meant was $8,000. hundred dollars. That's a big difference. I'm sorry to laugh at the president of the United States. I really am. It makes me feel bad to laugh at him. But what else am I going to do? If you read my upcoming book confronting the president's out September 10th, you'll see that he's the second worst president in history. I'll prove it to you. But right now it's You either laugh or you cry. Okay.

You ever heard of the ICC? This is an interesting story. So the ICC is the International Criminal Court. Most people have no idea what it is. It's in the Hague, which is the capital of the Netherlands. Most people don't know that. Okay. So the ICC has 123 member countries.

Not the United States. We have not signed on to that, nor has China, India, or Russia. We're not part of it. Those 123 countries send money to the ICC so they can investigate war crimes, crimes against humanity. That's what it's in business to do. You with me so far? Okay. So the ICC has issued arrest warrants for BB Netanyahu, the leader of Israel, and the Hamas leaders, and also the defense minister of Israel. These are warrants issued by the Hague in Netherlands. Now, there are no way these warrants are going to be served. If you try to serve these warrants Hamas, they shoot you in the head, or torture you before they shot you in the head. So those aren't going to be served.

And not, yeah, security never going to let these people close. Now, you may remember the only real headline grabber was that the ICC prosecuted a man named Rodko Maladitch, former Serbian leader for war crimes and convicted him. And he's in prison serving life. He's 82 years old. That was the big one. You remember the Balkans war in the 90s?

Okay, to grab this guy, this Serb, they whisked them over to Holland, which is the Netherlands, and they convicted them. That was their big gun. But now they have issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and the Hamas guys. They also issued arrest warrants for Putin and his crew about two years ago. Of course, you know, Putin. Again, you try to serve a warrant. In Russia, on Putin, not going to work out.

Okay. Now, there's a reason I'm telling you all this. So here's Biden's statement about the ICC. Let me be clear, whatever this prosecutor might imply, Zocholitan's done between Israel and Hamas. We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security. That was written for Biden. Okay.

Here's an Netanyahu statement. With what audacity do you compare between the Hamas that murdered, burned, butchered raped, and kidnapped our brothers and sisters, and the IDF soldiers who are fighting a just war that is unparalleled and morality that is unmatched. Okay. Okay, so this is political. Much of the world hates Israel. As you know, far more countries hate Israel than like Israel, but it's not going to lead to anything. Here in the United States, these hardcore leftists who make up the pro-Palestinian protests now. students have gone home, their lifeguards and, you know, for the summer, they have some fun,

but the real hardcore remain. Yesterday at Yale, 150 Yale graduates walked out of their own graduation, insulting the president of Yale, Peter Salvei, Peter Salavi, who was speaking and they all walked out, there's a video of it, screaming, and they all walked out, there's a video of it, screaming and yelling about the Palestinians. Okay. But here's what's interesting. Here's a statement by Dr. Salvi, or whatever his name is. Salave.

O'Reilly, I'm on it. Salivay. Here's a statement. Yow is committed to promoting freedom of speech and expression. The president, we do not agree on everything, but we all have a responsibility to do our part, fostering community in which we can have open civil discussion about any topic, no matter how complex, how difficult, as members of a university committed to learning

the search for truth we can do, no less. Didn't condemn the protesters to disrupting the graduation and insulting president. Ah, you can't do that. No. That's the way you have it. Okay, so we got a lot of stuff going on with this Israel Hamas. And I think one of the best guests in the country

is a guy that works for News Nation. His name is Leland Vitter. You may remember. I mean, he worked for Fox for 10 years, and he was based in Jerusalem for much of that time. I used him on a factory. He's a good reporter, solid reporter, not an ideologue, doesn't tilt it. And I do a video show on News Nation every Monday, joins us now from Washington. All right, Vitter, this is a no-spin interview, and you know what that means, all right?

I don't want anything other than what I ask you. And at the end, you can make fun of me if you want, okay? First question, do you believe most Americans, in particular these protesters at Yale and other places, understand what is really happening in Israel and Gaza? No, I don't think they necessarily understand, but in a sense, I don't think it matters because of how far in we are. And you, Bill, for a long time and still do, talk about the fairness doctrine. Fairness is something that is inherent in America. And to be fair, six months into protest, if you are out there chanting things, if you don't know what they mean, that's on you. That's not up to us journalists to say, well, he may not believe that.

And by that, I mean, if you're chanting from the river to the sea and you don't know, that is from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, meaning we're going to wipe out Israel, well, that's on you that you don't know that. Okay, and I think for that you want to wipe out Israel. What I want, what I'm trying to get here is, if you're going to protest anything, you should understand what you're protesting. Fair? And you just said, in front of millions of people all over the world, that you believe most of these protesters, and Americans in general, people just sitting in a living room, do not understand what is happening in this region.

Why don't they understand it? A couple of reasons. One, basic ignorance of a very complex and complicated situation. I lived there for four years, covered it every day, and still don't fully understand it. Two is the moral equivalence. And you talked about the international criminal court, which put Israel and Hamas on the same level and created a moral equivalence. Into a lesser degree, President Biden does the same thing, both in his rhetoric and in his policies. And what it comes down to, the thing to understand, is there is evil, which is Hamas, which is sponsored by.

Iran and there is Israel, which is not perfect. But certainly, if you have to pick between the two and wars are binary choices, you pick between good and evil. That leaves you the choice of Israel. And I think the fundamental misunderstanding, in a lot of ways, it's because of the media's reporting, that somehow the Palestinians are victims because of Israel, when in fact the Palestinian civilians are victims because of Hamas. Okay. But isn't it true? that there are elements in Tel Aviv who are using this war, and I think it is a just war,

for revenge. They hate Palestinians. They hate Hamas. They hate everybody over there. Because remember, and you know this better than anyone, from the time you are two or three years old, if you are living in Gaza or the West Bank, you are taught in school that Jewish people are the devil.

But of course the Palestinians hate the Jews. Of course they do. And therefore, the Jews feel justified in hating back. Is there any validity to that argument? I guess on the margins there's a little validity that there is anger in the Israeli community at the fact that they've offered the Palestinians upteen zillion peace deals. They unilaterally pulled out of Gaza. And this is what they got, which is Gaza controlled by Hamas and 70%

of Ghazans saying they agree and support Hamas. I've not seen any evidence of widespread, and I use that word advisingly, widespread revenge or acts outside the rules of war by the Israeli military that would somehow speak to, we're trying to cleanse the Palestinians or we're trying to push the Palestinians out of Gaza. It isn't so much that. It isn't a cleanse. It's a Hamas leadership hides behind civilians, okay, which you know is true. All right. Hamas has its headquarters below hospitals. It has armaments in schools. It does all of that because Hamas wants Israel to kill civilians. That's all 100% true. But the rationalization on a part of some, and I don't know the number of how many, is, well, that's too bad for the Palestinian people

because they put up with Hamas. If all the Palestinians rose up and threw them out, okay, but they don't. They accept Hamas leadership. How do you punch a hole in that argument? It's very clear. Hamas started a war with Israel. Israel not only has

the right, but I think as a country, it has the obligation to defend itself and defend its citizens. And if Hamas puts its way, puts Palestinian civilians, as you've just said, in the way which they do, the only way to liberate the Palestinians, the only way to free them from the oppression and the cruelty of Hamas, is to kick Hamas out and to end Hamas as a terror organization.

So, yes, there are Palestinians who are going to tragically die. The question is, whose end responsibility is that? And having spent a lot of time there and interviewed these folks and been there, Hamas views Palestinians' deaths as a success. Israel views them as a necessary tragedy to protect its own people. Okay, that's a good analysis. Do you believe that most Palestinians want to kick Hamas out? No, no.

Okay, and you point out why. Yeah, therein lies the problem, right? Therein lies why the Allied forces level Dresden in Germany, when they were winning, the Allies were winning, destroyed the whole town because the German people would not repudiate the Third Reich. Right? I don't think it's a fair moral comparison because we're not seeing Israel destroy mass towns, the way the allies did Dresden. The allies didn't send leaflets over Dresden and say, hey, we're about to firebom Dresden, please leave. The United States didn't send leaflets over Nagasaki and Hiroshima and say,

we're about to drop nuclear bombs. The Israelis do. The Israelis not only send leaflets, they send text messages, they make phone calls. They broadcast on radio and on television. Hey, this is where we're headed. If you're a civilian leave, if you're Hamas, we're going to kill you. It's a completely different standard that the Israelis hold themselves to a much higher one. And I think it shows the unfairness of the meeting. Excellent point. I read stats today where the Israelis have allowed much humanitarian aid to flow into Gaza, which is some of it stolen by Hamas.

I mean, you know, that kind of thing. Final question. Biden and the other people, the politicians who really don't care. I mean, Biden could care less about what happens in the Middle East. You just wants to get reelected. You hear two-state solution. This is Chuck Schumer's favorite expression. Two-state solution.

Again, simple man O'Reilly, all right. There aren't two states. There's just one. Israel. Gaza is not a state. Palestine is not a state. There's no functional government there. All there is is terrorists telling people what to do.

Am I wrong? only in that there is a two-state solution, and the second state already exists. That's the state of Jordan, which is 90% Palestinian, 10% Hashemite. Okay, but that's not what they're talking about, though. No, it's not what they're talking about, but it is, it is that is an option. And then the other option is that Egypt takes part of Gaza. Why is Jordan an option? So Jordan takes over Gaza and the West Bank?

You could certainly envision a situation where Gaza becomes part of Egypt. And the West Bank becomes part of Egypt, or out of part of Jordan, which, by the way, it was up until 1967 and Gaza was part of Egypt. I don't know about any part of it. No, Jordan wants a part of it. No, Jordan was even sympathetic. Jordan is sympathetic. Egypt doesn't want any part of this at all. All right. Final question. What, when you were over there for four years, what was the most important thing that Leland Vittert learned from that stint. Evil is real, and you have to have moral clarity when fighting. Okay.

Did I play by your rules, Bill? I came to your house, Jack. I thought that was a good, well, we'll know tomorrow with the mail, Leland. I mean, they might make funny a hair. That's possible, you know, because I do all the time. But I thought that was a pretty good interview. I thought you answered the questions very directly, and that's why I'm happy to be on your program,

News Nation. You can watch Leland 7 o'clock Eastern every day, and I hope you do. Thanks for helping us out. We'll see you on your show next week. Sir.

You don't want to miss an episode. Okay.

This whole Israel thing now is coming. back to Biden and my Biden. And here's why. So you know George Clooney and you know that I have no use for him. And I admit it. Maybe I'm being petty, but I don't think so. Okay, not a quality guy in my opinion. And I know he'd say the same and has about me. Okay. So he married to a woman named Amal, A-M-A-L, right? And she works in this I-C-C thing. And you're married. And you And she, apparently, by her own email or statement, wants Netanyahu and Hamas guys to be arrested. Okay. So she puts herself in a position where she's telling the world that Israel is evil.

Netanyahu and the top people should be arrested. Next month, George Clooney's heading a fundraiser for Biden. Biden's already condemned the ICC's action. Well, that ought to be a pretty interesting thing. So what does Biden do? He's not going to cancel the fundraiser ever because he needs Hollywood. So you got George in Amal. They're the big two raising money for Biden.

Biden walks in. Biden is saying he supports Israel. But Amal, who's going to be right there, wants the Israeli government leaders to be arrested. Keep your eye on that. I will. And if you heard that analysis anyway, will please let me know because I don't think you have. Bill at Bill O'Reilly.com, bill at bill o'Reilly.com, name in town, if you wish to opine. Okay.

Let us go into the world of Senator Charles. Schumer I used to get along with Schumer but not anymore so Schumer is is Biden's right-hand guy and Schumer is smart okay he's a fanatical ideologue Democrat fanatical but he's smart and he wants to take the border open border situation out of the campaign because it's hurting Biden. So Schumer is behind all of this new border legislation, which this coming Thursday, Schumer's introduced yet another bill in the Senate to toughen up the open border, which isn't tough to do. The Republicans know this. Senator Thune wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal today saying, look, we know what Schumer's trying to do here. Okay? He's trying to say,

we'll take some half measures, we'll toughen it up a little, but he's not going to shut the border down. You know, what is it now? 4,500 can come across, and then they, it's just crazy. Just like the other bill, the first bill was just crazy. There are Republicans, though, on board with the Schumer bill. He was smart enough to grab a few of them to come over. So anyway, they're going to vote for another border bill. Now, if I'm in the Senate, I want the border.

control. If this bill comes to me, then I have to make a decision whether to vote for it or not. If I believe that the bill would shut down the terrible catastrophe that we're seeing, then I would vote for it. But the last one wouldn't. And I don't think this one will either, but I'd read it. I'd read it myself, not have some staff member read it. Okay. At the time this is happening the Schumer thing the House of Representatives is urging its members Democrats to vote against a law that would forbid non-citizens from voting in Washington D.C. elections remember the federal government controls Washington D.C. it's federal territory so the Democratic Party says no we're we

We want non-citizens to vote when that's against the Constitution. Got me American citizens to vote. We want that. So how can you tell the American Public Democratic Party with a straight face? Yeah, yeah, we want to get control of the migrant situation. But we don't want to stop them from voting. Those are already here. It's such a...

Oh, the hypocrisy is stunning. Anyway, we called Schumer's office and say, hey, is Chuck? support this is he going to vote against banning non-citizens from voting in dc wouldn't answer there you go smart life um study by academia academia dot edu says if you learn a new word every day your brain will expand and be sharper because You are creating more ways to retain information. Thank you. Word of the day.

Thank you. That's why we have the word of the day. To we want to expand your brain. Now your brain is already expanded if you're watching a no spin news and listening on the radio. And I'm not saying it to blow smoke. If you're taking the time to watch this broadcast and listen to it, your brain is expanding. Rather than sitting there watching the cable news show, it's a total waste of time.

time, okay? This is not a waste of time. So far in the 32 minutes I've been talking to you, I've taught you about 15 things. Anyway, the word of today from us is, do not be parsimonious. P-A-R-S-I-M-O-N, I-O-U-S, do not be parsimonious. The most religious state in the union, take a guess. What is the most religious state in the union? Utah, Mormons, Mormon religion expanding. Okay, while most of the other religions are shrinking, Mormons in Utah, that's the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints, is expanding. I thought you'd like to know that.

This day in history, May 21st, 2018, Netflix, signs a humongous deal with the Obama's. It was amazing. So Netflix run by a guy named Reefat, Heid Hastings, big Democrat, big liberal guy, loves the Obamas. Deal is $50 million. Reed said, hey, Mr. President and First Lady, I'm going to give you $50 million. What do you have to do for that? So the Obamas will produce scripted series, documentaries, and features, and they get paid $50 million.

Here's an example. Go. I just want to be at home, on my porch, in my rocking chair. My refrigerator's full, my bills is paid, my child is killed. That's the dream. You find it. That's peace. You feel like it's harder for folks now than it used to be to just do what you describe?

Yes. How come? It's $6.15 for a box of cereal. Because that's expensive. I make $10 an hour. That's one hour of my paycheck. Gone. And a cup of canvas.

And you can go through that pretty quick. I think I saw the president in my local shop right the other day and the car. Maybe it was just somebody who looked like. But anyway, pretty good deal. Okay. When the Obama's left the White House in 2016, they were worth $21 million. All right? This is according to Forbes, I believe.

No, the International Business Times. 21 million. Now they are worth hundreds of millions and they could make, earn, as much as $250 million in the next few years. Big business being the Obama's. President gets $400 to a million for a speech. The show gets $225,000, $225,000 for speech.

Okay, they're right back. All right, final thought of the day. Get a lot of mail about Holly. So she had to go back in the hospital for a tune-up. Holly had a brain tumor removed. You know, ultra-serious. So I had to bring her back. I get a tune-up, clear out some of the other,

what they call margins in the dog's brain. And Holly's now back home and getting great care across the board. Vets are great. You know, I'm keeping an eye on Holly and all of that. So I think Holly's going to make it. It's been very, very tough for the little dog. She's a corgi, seven years old.

You know, so that puts her about 50 years old, human years. She should be able to live another six unless this is a recurrence, this brain thing. But it's hard for me to sit back with anybody that is in my family or my friends and watch them suffer. And Holly has suffered. And I'm doing everything I can. And I have to stay up most of the night if I look tired because, you know, got to watch. Polly needs anything. It's me.

It's got to provide it. There's no dog nurse. Well, Holly's a really, really good dog. And she's been a member of our family since a puppy. Got her from a breeder in Georgia and really has been a great addition to the O'Reilly family. So anyway, thank you for writing and asking about Holly. And we believe that she is going to be back 100%. Take some time.

And that's life. You fight the good fight, right? Thank you for watching and listening to the NoSpin News. We'll see you tomorrow.
