Here. Welcome to the no spin news. Thursday, March 27, 2025 Stand up for your country. Well, as we told you yesterday, this national security breach story pretty much petering out. The anti Trump press doesn't want it to, but the American people concentration span is short. If you got something new, they'll listen up. But if it's the same old stuff, they won't. So the breach thing is on the decline and the Trump administration did something smart to obliterate it, at least in the short term. And that is the subject of this evening's Talking Points memoir. So this morning Attorney General Pam Body made a big announcement that the top Mississippi 13 gang leader on the east coast of the United States has been arrested. We don't know the name yet. It'll be out shortly. 24 years old. Ms. 13 is the vicious gang from El Salvador that murders at will and statistics. There may be 10,000 members of MS.13 in the United States right at this moment committing crimes, selling drugs, beating people up, extortion, murder, you name it. Thank you, Joe Biden. That's right at Biden's doorstep. All right, so what the Trump administration did was make this announcement on Thursday morning. So any kind of breach stuff would be put on the back burner. Here's what the Attorney General said. Go.
Bill O'Reilly
Early this morning, one of the top leaders of Ms. 13 was apprehended.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
He was the leader for the east.
Bill O'Reilly
Coast, one of the top three in.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
The entire country right here in Virginia.
Bill O'Reilly
Living half an hour Outside of Washington D.C. he is an illegal alien from El Salvador and he will not be living in our country much longer.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
Well, I hope they try this guy in our country. I mean, I know you deport him, you send him back to El Salvador and he'll rough him up there. But if this guy has committed crimes on our soil, I want him tried here and put in a supermax prison in Colorado for whatever, 20, 30 years, and then he can deport him when he's an old man. That's what I would do. But anyway, this is such a huge scandal, I can't even believe I'm even reporting the story. And this is what has sunk the Democratic Party, right? And President Biden. Biden's legacy is shot. It'll never come back. There are some presidents who leave office unpopular like Harry Truman, but then their legacy gets boosted as history unfolds and people go, you know, Truman's pretty good. People just didn't know about it. Not Biden. He's so terrible, it's almost impossible for me to describe it. In addition to Ms. 13, most of whom came to this country across the southern border which Biden opened up, as everybody knows, there are estimated 50,000 members of the 18th street gang. That's a multi ethnic bunch of thugs from Central America, Mexico and some Americans out of la. But they're all over the country now. And it's mostly narcotics. That's what they do. That's what these gangs do. But they also extort. They go into bodegas and say, you got to give me 10, 20% of your profits or I'm going to shoot you in the head and kill all your children. And that's what they do. That's what they do in El Salvador, in Honduras, wherever else they come from. They're extortionists and dope dealers. And the dope market is the biggest here in America, which is why they come here. So Biden allowed this to happen by opening the border. So you look at it and you go, well, why? The Border patrol under Biden four years reports 11 million encounters. That's 11 million foreign nationals were stopped by the Border patrol. Well, you got to figure there was another, what, 7 or 8 million that got through that weren't encountered. We're talking astronomical numbers that the Trump administration is trying to get under control, as everybody knows. All right, so Biden did it. He did it by executive order. Congress didn't pass this. What a heinous, heinous Worst policy in American history generated by a president. The worst Dred Scott decision was Supreme Court. A lot of these slave stuff came out of Congress. Executive order Biden open in that southern border, worst in history. I can't find another one. If you can, bill@billorilly.com, let me know, but I can't find one that's even close to that. Okay. That's how bad it was. So now we have up to 20 million foreign nationals running around the United States unattended. Okay. And There have been 53,000 arrests of criminal aliens since Biden was elected. 53,000. There have been 100 undocumented aliens on the terror watch list who crossed into this country. 100. This is from Homeland Security Stats. Now, we know them all. Right. That's how we got the number. But there are others who are. We don't know who came across. Border Patrol didn't get everybody. They don't counter everybody. Some believe that most get away. I don't know that. So when you're looking at this, that is why Donald Trump won. Yeah, the economy and the high prices had something to do with it, but, boy, it was illegal. Immigration put him over the top in Arizona and Nevada and other states that went for him. That didn't go the first time around. That was it. And so now when the president gets in trouble, as he did with this breach business, okay, he. He trots out, and I do the same thing. Nothing dishonest about it. It's a little bit of a deflection. I keep calling for Cash Patel, the head of the FBI, to interview this Atlantic magazine editor, Goldberg, you got to send agents out there and find out how he got on that thread. You know, I'm kind of flabbergasted. That hasn't happened yet. I want to know how this evolved. I'm not looking to fire anybody, obviously, if it happens again. Yeah, but mistakes are mistakes. But this is a big one. Let's find out. All right, back to the migrants. So when you have a situation where an incoming president, Donald Trump, is throwing every resource to try to correct the worst executive order policy in the history of this country, you're going to have some hysteria, you are going to have some dissent. And the Democratic Party doesn't want any part of this. They are. They were fine under Biden with the open border. You did not hear them protest Biden's open border, did you? Do you hear Kamala Harris criticize it? Henry Cuellar, a congressman In Texas, did January 2024. Roll the tape. I don't like exactly the language that's there, but I think the Biden administration can certainly do a lot more at securing the border. It's very simple. It's what I've been saying for many years, detain and deport the people that don't qualify very rare. Very, very rare. Rare. And the leadership of the party, that's Chuck Schumer. Okay. That's Kamala Harris. No problem with it? None. And that's going to haunt them because even today with all of the action against the criminal migrants, you have Democrats, high profile Democrats, that are condemning it. Roll the tape.
Bill O'Reilly
If a person is so much as accused of a crime, if someone wants.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
To point a finger and accuse someone of shoplifting, they will be rounded up and put into a private detention camp and sent out for deportation without a day in court. They want you to blame immigrants. They want you to criminalize immigrants. We need to focus on the greedy billionaires and make them pay their fair share. We can't let them continue their lies and their distractions. We can't let them deport the millions of families across this country who have been doing the work that keeps our economy going every day. That's just hysterical nonsense, gibberish, and Americans know it. How do I know they know it? Because there's a poll I'm going to give you in a moment. You know, I always say when you watch the no Smith news and listen on the radio, you should have a pen and a paper. If you are a concierge member, to billorily.com, you get a transcript of everything I say so that you have in your records. But if you're not, you can write down the stats because our stats are in stone. We never have to correct anything that we tell you as far as statistics are concerned. Now I'm going to list and read some of the organizations in the United States that are opposing. I rely on physical precious metals like gold and silver to protect my savings. And the only company I trust is American Hartford Gold. A tax advantaged gold IRA can protect your savings from inflation, recessions and more.

Here in America, work is in trouble. We've offshored our manufacturing, sent away Good jobs and lost so much ability to make things. American Giant is a company that's pushing.

When you use code STAPLE20 at checkout, that's 20% off your first order at American-Giant.com promo code STAPLE20. The crackdown on criminal migrants. It starts with the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, then it goes to the American Civil Liberties Union, Immigrants List, National Immigrant Justice Center, New York Immigrant Coalition, Civil Liberties Union, Jewish Council, Public affairs, then a whole bunch of others. Casa, Nonprofit Organization, Immigrant Workers Rights, Texas Baptist Christian Life Commission, Institute on Religion and Democracy. All of these people said, no, we don't want any of this. We'd rather have the Trump administration back off, not track them down. Because remember, when you are looking for criminal aliens and there are, and they're associating with aliens that don't have a crime record, both of them go as they should. Because you as an undocumented migrant know if your boyfriend or girlfriend or son or daughter committing crimes, you know it. And if you're sitting there watching it, then you go, okay, here are some people who oppose the deportations. D.C. circuit Judge Patricia Millett. Chicago Mayor Brandon James, Louisiana Mayor Karen Bass. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Way to go, Hakeem. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. Denver Mayor Mike Johnston. Springfield, Ohio Mayor Rob Roux. And Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. And the woman you just heard from, you know, look, they're Americans. They're entitled their opinion. But I am entitled to say that these people are irresponsible and dangerous. They put my family and your family in danger. And if I see them on the street, I'm going to tell them that I'm going to, I'm going to tell them that you're putting my family in danger with your insane take on this. And that's the memoir. All right, here's a poll I was referring to. Pew Research, 5123 US adults. First question, do you think immigrants living in the USA illegally should be deported? All of them, 32%. Some of them, 51%. That adds up to 83%. No deportation, 16%. I don't know who these 16% are. I don't know anybody like that. I don't. Second question, deciding whether immigrants living in the USS should be deported, which of all groups should. Violent crimes, 98%. Okay. So if you commit a violent crime You're a foreign national. Out of here. Nonviolent crime, 68%. Okay, I'm with that. You sneak into this country and you shoplift, you steal a car, whatever, gone, Gone. All right, Those who arrived within the past four years, that's on Biden's watch. 64% in his Pew poll say they should all be deported on that open border thing. Very, very interesting. Okay, now let's shift back to the Trump administration. There's danger for Donald Trump on the tariff stuff. So he announces that tariffs on automobiles, Mercedes, BMW, Toyota, up 25% from 2.5%. It's a pretty big hike. So if you're thinking about buying a Mercedes Benz, which I would never do because Mercedes helped Adolf Hitler and never paid a price for it, never buy their cars because of that. Anyway, Trump, 25%, all foreign cars and parts. So if you want a foreign car, you'll pay a lot more, which is what Trump wants. Problem is that the stock market doesn't like it. And as we said, danger ahead. Look, one year from today, if Donald Trump has not improved the economy, if prices are not down and jobs are not abundant, the Democrats will win the midterms in 26. Okay? If that happens, Donald Trump's administration is done. President has one year. Now he thinks these tariffs are going to bolster the economy. And he may be right. I don't know. I don't think anybody knows. I do know there's a lot of money coming into the US The Emirates just said he's going to invest a trillion dollars. Apple's bringing money back from China. There's a lot of money coming in. How that's going to translate, I don't know. But it's not about me. It's about the consumer. One year, that's what he's got there. This is the most important story for him. Now, Marjorie Taylor Greene, you know, this woman is an extremist right wing conservative. I wrote a message of the day. I hope you all read it on billo reilly.com she represents a rural district in northwest Georgia. We don't like her. She's been disrespectful to us, personally disrespectful. But that's all right. We treat her fairly. She's doing a very good thing trying to knock out the payments, federal tax payments to NPR and pbs. I'm right with her. But if you disagree with Marjorie Taylor Greene, she attacks you. Roll the tape.
Bill O'Reilly
What country are you from? From the U.K. okay.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
We don't give a crap about your Opinion and your reporting.
Bill O'Reilly
Why don't you go back to your country where you have a major migrant problem? Okay? Do you care.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
No, no, no, no. You should care about your own. Okay?
Bill O'Reilly
Do you care about American lives being put at risk? Let me tell you something. Do you care about people from your country?
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
What about all the women that are raped by my.
Bill O'Reilly
Do you care about. No.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
Do you care? Okay, all right. Totally ridiculous. All right? The woman from Sky News did her job. Her name is Martha Kellner. And she was asking about the breach, which is a legitimate question. And Taylor wails on her and insults her. And remember, Great Britain is our most important ally. No excuse for it. And then she gets into migrants. That's not the topic. All right, so she's an extremist. I don't like that. I don't know about you, but I don't want elected officials at the national level to be extremists. I don't know. Nothing I can do about it. Her district puts her in there, but I can analyze her in a fair way. Now, there are plenty of them on the other side. Okay, There's a guy in Massachusetts. He represents a district north of Boston. Name is Seth Moulton. Roll the tape on him. Accountability is back.
Bill O'Reilly
I quote Secretary Pete Hegseth, that was.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
Our secretary of defense on the record.
Bill O'Reilly
Just a couple of months ago. Now the debate among national security professionals.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
Is over whether the secretary was just.
Bill O'Reilly
Incompetent or whether he was drunk.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
There is no debate about whether Defense Secretary Hegseth was drunk. He wasn't. And nobody is saying he was except Moulton, who is an extreme left wing loon. And you good people in Massachusetts, I don't know why you're voting for this guy. He's as bad as Marjorie Taylor Greene and Crockett in Texas and Massie in Kentucky. These are loons. And they get away with it because their district is so ideological, all right, that it's hard for anybody to challenge them. They're locked in. It just really bothers me. Maybe it shouldn't bother me as much as it does. But when I see this kind of stuff, I just. I go, look, this is not what this country should be. You've got to be professional. You can't be insulting a British reporter for asking a legitimate question. You can't be saying that P. Hegseth was drunk without any evidence, whatever. Really. This has poisoned our national dialogue. And I'm going to. Now I'm going to go on a jihad myself. All of them, left and right. I'm spotlighting them here. Airport madness. So I'm on record as saying Pete Buttigieg was the worst transportation secretary since they had covered wagons. I mean, this guy was so bad for four years, he watched the airline industry collapse as far as customer service is concerned, did nothing in the last couple of months. He said, oh, we'll find this fine. That under Biden, the air traffic controller system is 3500 individuals short. Are you kidding me? This is the air crashes and everybody panicking. 3,500. We need 3,500 more air controllers, Pete. Hey. So today the Trump administration announced hands of plans to hire 2,000 as soon as they can. Well, remember, you got to train these people and it takes a while to get qualified people in that tower. That's a really hard job. We have 10% fewer air traffic controllers working now than we did in 2012. That's insane. All right, well, I'm glad the Trump administration is going to hire 2,000. I'd hire 4,000 myself because, you know, some of them are going to wash out media madness. So we do this segment every night pretty much. And I know a lot of you are bored with it and don't care about the media. And I understand. But the danger that a disintegrating media poses to a free society is substantial. And you should know the bigger picture here.

Like a bull in the China shop, Donald Trump came in to drain the swamp in Washington, D.C. but with his bold reform and rejuvenation in agenda comes so many legal questions nationwide. Injunctions, are they constitutional? What's the deal with birthright citizenship? What about the administrative state? Can he actually clean the deep state and end the politicization of the federal bureaucracy? I'm Josh Hammer, host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer.

Now, President Trump doesn't like certain media, and I don't blame him. And I would probably do similar things if I were president because the media has Attacked me long before Donald Trump, by the way, long before, in vile, vicious ways because I'm so powerful and they don't like what I say. The liberal media. All right, so today the Associated Press have been banned from the Oval Office in the White House grounds because Trump believes they don't report fairly on him. Which is true. They don't. It's true. Okay. But Trump used the Gulf of America, Gulf of Mexico stuff to say, well, if you're not going to abide by an executive order, because remember, Trump signed executive order. Now, it's now the Gulf of America. If you're not going to abide by it, you can't be here at the White House. That was the excuse to boot them. So the Associated Press went into court today to get the ban lifted by the judges. I don't know if they're going to be able to do that. President of the United States has a right to regulate what media is on his property. He's in the White House. Right. So I don't see that, but maybe it'll happen. So the AP wants to use the courts to get back in at the same time, and I did not know about this, the Federal Communications Commission is looking at Disney, Comcast and other left wing media organizations and they're using the DEI stuff. Remember, the president signed an order saying anybody dealing with the federal government cannot practice diversity, equity and inclusion. And if you do, you can't deal with the federal government at all. That's the law. Executive order. Well, now Brendan Carr, the chairman of the FCC says he's looking at Disney and Comcast and Verizon as violators of this executive order. Whoa. Now, I knew this was going to happen because I had an extensive 90 minute conversation with Donald Trump on January 2nd about the media. I can't impart everything that went on. It was a private dinner. But we talked at length and he asked me questions and I answered him honestly because I know all of these people. As I told you yesterday, I know everybody at pbs. I know who they are. I know how they operate. All right? I've been in this business 50 years. I can't believe it, but it's true. I'm the last man standing from my class of journalists. The last one, Brit Hume, maybe he's a little bit more than me, so I shouldn't say the last one Hume is there. Anyway. And I told President Trump, I answered his questions honestly and I told him about the culture of Disney, the culture of Comcast, the culture of pbs. Now, what do I mean by that, if you work for these organizations, you must toe their line or you are not going to prosper. I worked at CBS under Dan Rather. I worked at ABC under Peter Jennings. I know this now. Those cultures have changed. Jennings is a tough guy social liberal, but he didn't want any ideology in reporting. He's very disciplined, very fair. Rather not so much. Rather was a committed liberal and he did inject his politics into the CBS presentation, which drove Walter Cronkite crazy because remember, Rather took over from Cronkite. Cronkite was a liberal too, but he didn't like that. I know all this. I was there. So then the culture of Disney and the culture of Comcast, NBC went even further left when I started the O'Reilly factory because Fox News was so successful in presenting a traditional point of view to the American public. The others went, well, we don't believe in traditional points of view. We love liberalism. So let's double, triple, quadruple down on our liberalism. And that's what they did. I would never get hired today by Disney or Comcast even though I could make them tons of money. They wouldn't hire me. They won't even put me on CBS Sunday Morning show to talk about my books, which are the best selling nonfiction books in the world. And I called out Jane Pauly, but Jane Pauly is part of that culture. You cannot prosper inside these major media corporations unless you are a left winger. And I'll tell you, you can't prosper inside of Fox News unless you're a traditional conservative. But it's not quite as onerous at Fox. They need outside. And there are a few voices on the left there and they're usually responsible voices in my opinion or any nuts down there. So anyway, Trump knows he's never going to get a fair car from Disney or Comcast ever. They're always going to try to hurt him. So he says, okay, you won't play that game. FCC is going to look at you now. And that's what's happening. Now if you disagree with my analysis or bill@billoriley.com name in town. But I what I've told you is absolutely the truth. It's all to do with the corporate culture. All right. And here's a interesting footnote to this. Pew put out a poll on whether tax money should go to NPR, PBS. All right. More than 9,000Americans polled. Question is, would you stop federal government funding for NPR and PBS? So stop it. 24% continue the funding. 43% no, don't know, 33%. 33%. They don't know what NPR and PBS is? I don't know. No, because NPR and PBS are in business to promote liberalism. Why should I, if I'm not a liberal, pay for that? You're forcing me to pay for that with my tax money. No, that's not democracy. Smart life. Okay, so the no spin news, billoriley.com, our whole independent news operation, is just about eight years old. I can't believe that time went so fast. We are the most successful independent news agency in the world, and that takes in profits. It takes in millions of views, whatever. There's nobody close to us. Now, some of these podcasts, they get a lot of attention, but they're podcasts. They're like, yes. And around in their sweatshirts. And this is a news organization, all right? We abide by the journalistic tenants, and we are. There's nobody that comes close to us. And we're all over the world now on YouTube and things like that. Anyway, if you are a member, a concierge or premium member of billoriley.com, you get special privileges, okay? Including discounts on all our stuff if you. And you get a free book when you sign up. So if you get the free book and you buy two things throughout the year to give as gifts, you make your membership fee back. That's the way I set it up so you really get it free. We have a 90% retention rate. Nobody in the business says that on any product. 90% of people who sign up for concierge and premium membership resign. Ria, Nobody has that. No car, no anything. And the reason is because we're unique. We give you information no one else does. And we're honest, authentic. So why am I telling you this? Smart Life, you're smart to be with us. Why? Because I am giving you information that's going to help you and your family. And I'm not pulling anything back. I'm not censoring anything. I'm telling you what's going on in this country, in the world. In order to prosper, you need to know these things, particularly with the economy. I'm right on this tariff business. I am watching everything that happens so I can tell you what's likely to happen in the grocery store, at the gas pump, things like that. So that's why we have a 90% retention rate. Smart Life, you're in good shape if you are with us and if you're a generous person, which, you know, Smart Life generosity kind of Go together. Give a. Give a premium concierge member to somebody as a gift. You're helping them.

Hey, I'm Mike Slater. I have a podcast called Politics by Faith. We have a very simple mission. We take the news of the day and we filter it through a biblical worldview. So here's the big story of the day. What does the Bible say about it and how can we apply it? It's amazing. There's nothing new under the sun. The Bible has something to say about everything that's going on today. So basically, we thumped the Bible over on Politics by Faith. I think we ought to keep MAGA going. And I think the way to take it beyond to political victory into a true rebuilding and awakening and revival in America is to make sure that this is all grounded in biblical principles. And that's what we do on the podcast Politics by Faith. And you can subscribe to Politics by Faith wherever you're listening to the show right now.

You're making their life better. You're enhancing their lives. So that's our pitch. Eight years into this experiment. You know, when I left Fox News, I took five people with me from FNC in various capacities. Capacities. And they are still the core of what we do here because I train them and this and that. And that's why we're where we are. Michelle Obama has a hydration drink with Stephen Curry, the basketball player. It's called Pleasy Please. Something, something, P, L, E, Z, I, Please. Hydration. And it has more potassium. Half the sugar left sodium, Michelle says. Comes in three flavors, and it's 229A bottle. Whoa, whoa. That's a lot for an energy drink. But it doesn't have the sugar, so I'm happy. No added artificial sweeteners. And Pleasy means Fun and Creole. Or it's a please. I don't know what it is, but the interesting part of the story is that Michelle Obama is a capitalist to the nth degree. Sorry about the cliche. Three mansions. I mean, big, nice mansions. And a fourth working in Chicago on the library front. And then she got a hydration drink. This is not Bernie Sanders here. This is. Come on. So I thought you would like to know Stephen Curry is a really good basketball player. Golden State. They're in business together. I might try it, but boy, 229 a bottle. Stay in history. March 27, 1973, 45th Academy Awards. Marlon Brando wins best actor for playing Don Corleone in the Godfather. Go on the go. He bought the movie rights to this.
Bill O'Reilly
Book, the bestseller and the main character is a guy just like me.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
I wouldn't even have to act, just be myself.
Bill O'Reilly
Godfather, I don't know what to do.
Unnamed Co-Host or Guest
I don't know what to do. You can act like a man. What's the matter with you? Is this how you turn down a Hollywood Pinocchio that cries like a woman? What can I do? What can I do? What is that ridiculous? All right, Marlon Brando. So that was 52 years ago today. But Brando didn't show up to get his award because he was mad at the United States of America. So he sent a Native American activist go representing Marlon Brando this evening. And he has asked me to tell you in a very long speech which I cannot share with you presently because of time, but I will be glad to share with the press afterwards that he very regretfully cannot accept this very generous award. And the reasons for this being are the treatment of American Indians today by the film industry. Excuse me. And on television in movie reruns and also with recent happenings at Wounded Knee. All right, so Brando didn't show up. And that was a huge story 52 years ago today. Now, what happened to Brando? So after that, he kind of disappeared. He went out to the South Pacific, bought an island in the. In Polynesia. He was kind of crazy. Brando. He died at age 80 of heart failure. He won two Academy Awards. First one, 1955, on the Waterfront. Brilliant actor. If you watch the Godfather, I mean, his performance is out of this world. But crazy guy. Okay, we got a final thought that will amuse you. We'll be back in a moment. So here is the final thought of the day. The 3American show on Sunday at 3pm we're going to do a bunch of things there. It's not just the live tour. I'm shooting it for television. Now. What does that mean? I'm shooting a pilot because I believe this concept is really, really strong. And we're going to see if somebody wants to stream it based upon the show. It's number one. Number two, we are going to show you some of the clips on Monday. Not a lot because we want you to come to the show, but there will be a pre game huddle with Stephen A. Smith, Chris Cuomo and me. We're going to shoot that. And the audience would even see that. But you will on Monday. And we're going to lay out what we're going to do. We're going to have that. So it's a special situation. And I think what I'm going To show you on Monday is the Q and A with the audience. That should really be wild. So you have three separate guys with three separate philosophies and the questions that are going to come in. And I'm kind of the moderator here. It's my production company that's doing this. So I'm going to show you a little bit about that and see the flavor of it and how it goes. The guys are primed. They say they're bringing their A games. I said above all, we want to have fun. We're going to have a lot of good information, but it's going to be a fun, enjoyable, entertaining program. We're going to do it and best case scenario is everybody has a blast at Sunday at 3 on Long island and then we take the tape and somebody buys it. So we do this on a kind of semi regular basis for the world because the world needs non choir stuff. What, what drives me crazy and I've said it before, I'm sorry to be redundant is when I was working at Fox the Factor, I looked for the best guess I could get that opposed my point of view. My orders to the my producers were find the smartest person who disagrees with me and let's see the debate and then people can decide which argument is stronger. We still do that to the stay here. That's God. It's the choir. Every guest agrees with the host no matter what channel it is. This is very, very little. Now CNN has ejected this guy Jennings into their proceedings. He pretty good, but he's outnumbered five six to one. And by the time you get to him everybody's like oh geez. And that is really boring to me. That's why I don't watch a lot of news, television news or the networks or the cable. It's dull, it's predictable. We are not this show will not be predict. I don't know what's going to happen on Sunday at 3. Go to BillO Reilly.com if you want to see us. We just released 15 VIPs so you could meet the three of us after the show. Why anyone would want to do that? Beyond me. But all the VIP sold out real fast. So you get a picture and you know, we chat a little bit. So anyway, this is going to be an interesting weekend for moi, which I think is French for me. Thank you for watching the no Spin news and listening on our radio stations. We'll see you Monday.

This 24-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador was apprehended in Virginia, approximately half an hour outside Washington D.C. O'Reilly emphasizes the severity of MS-13 by stating:

Impact of Biden’s Border Policies (03:14 - 09:37)

“These people are irresponsible and dangerous. They put my family and your family in danger with your insane take on this.”

The conversation transitions to President Trump's recent decision to increase tariffs on foreign automobiles by 25%, affecting brands like Mercedes, BMW, and Toyota. O'Reilly discusses the potential economic implications:

Air Traffic Controller Shortage (20:06 - 23:25)
Addressing the chaos in the aviation sector, O'Reilly criticizes former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for the decline in air traffic controller numbers and the resultant operational inefficiencies:

[22:10]
Associated Press Ban and Legal Challenges (23:25 - 24:25)
O'Reilly discusses President Trump’s decision to ban the Associated Press (AP) from White House grounds, citing unfair media coverage as the rationale. This ban has led the AP to seek judicial intervention to lift the prohibition.
