Bill O'Reilly
Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the no Spin News for Thursday, March 6, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, just before tape time, President Trump announced he's pausing tariffs on Mexico. I wasn't surprised. I told you from the very beginning all this tariff stuff is negotiation. But apparently Donald Trump and the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, are getting along now and she's doing what he wants. So he's pausing the tariffs. Not in Canada. Justin Trudeau and Donald Trump don't like each other at all. A lot of that is cultural goes back. I do expect some detente with Canada because again, Donald Trump pretty much going to get what he wants the Canadians to do, which is seal up the border and bring down their tariffs on American goods. But this is fluid, okay? And everybody overreacts to it, particularly the media that doesn't care about any accuracy or perspective. Just keep in mind the end game and keep it here and I will tell you exactly what is going on. Now, something that's never going to work out is President Trump's relationship with the press. That is the subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo. So what I'm about to tell you is appalling. There's no other word for it. After Tuesday's speech, Donald Trump left the stage and was walking out of the House chamber. He passed Chief Justice John Roberts and Donald Trump said this. Go. Thank you again. Thank you again. Don't forget. Okay, so what was he talking about? Thank you again. I'll never forget it. Nobody knows. Oh, that didn't stop the Trump haters Did it? You couldn't possibly have known what he's talking about. There's no context provided at all. Yet. Here they go. Roll it.
[03:21]
Commentator
Thank you again. Thank you again. Won't forget Donald Trump understands that John Roberts is his guy who sprang him and saved him from prosecution with his ruling on presidential immunity, which ultimately paved the way for Trump to be elected president again.
[03:37]
And there was a moment there that really stopped my heart. And that was when Trump shook hands with the members of the Supreme Court who were there, and those were Kavanaugh, Kagan, Barrett, and Justice Roberts. He said to Justice Roberts, thank you again. Thank you again. Won't forget it. Now, what do you think he was referring to? Something like that.
[03:58]
Bill O'Reilly
I thought he helped him get into the men's room.
[04:00]
Commentator
Well, no, the immunity that he basically passed on.
[04:05]
Bill O'Reilly
Okay, so we know who those people are. They have freedom of speech, but the companies that employ them are responsible for what they are saying on national television. Keep that in mind. So Trump heard about this, and here's how he reacted on social media. Quote, I understand they are going crazy asking what it is that I was thanking Justice Roberts for. They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had, I would have told these sleazebag journalists that I thanked him for swearing me in on Inauguration Day and doing a really good job in so doing. The fake news never quits. All right, there it is. Now the Trump haters goes, oh, I don't believe Trump. Okay, fine, you don't have to believe what you believe what you want to believe, and we all know that is going on. But there is an explanation. And both Hayes and Behar have no backup, none, no context for what they said. They just said it because they hate Trump. So ABC News, that's the View, and NBC News, they've let MSNBC go, but they still control what is said on the air. Should suspend those two people, Hayes and Behar, right, because of their irresponsible and dishonest remarks. Should, won't. So that's Comcast and Disney. And this is what, the 10,000th time this has happened and you still have 2 million people watching the View. And Hayes, he barely gets. I mean, I crushed that man every single day for 20 years. Crushed him head to head. He never had anything. He's a hater. Okay? The reason that I'm making a big deal out of this is because it influences the culture. The good news is the left wing media is finished in America. It's done. All right, ABC is laying off 200 people, I'll tell you about that later. But it's not coming back. And the reason is because the ideology that they're pushing, cnn, MSNBC and the networks, it's not acceptable for the majority of Americans. Simple. It's just a numbers game. Okay? So they're done. More importantly, much more importantly, the Democratic Party itself is finished for the short term. It'll come back someday. But now it's done. And that happened on Tuesday night as well. So President Trump, as all presidents do, brought in a number of people to highlight in his speech. Lake and Riley, the college student in Georgia was murdered. Her mother and sister, a 13 year old African American boy had cancer who, who wanted to be a law enforcement agent. He was given Secret Service credentials. A young woman who was competing against a trans man who smashed a volleyball against her head and gave her brain damage. All these people, okay? The Democrats in the chamber did not applaud for any of them. None of them. And you saw that on your television screen. While the Republicans stood up and cheered all of these people on, the Democrats just sat there. You're a 13 year old cancer victim who gets credentials for the Secret Service. You can't applaud for that. Something seriously wrong in that party. And we all know there is, there's no leadership in the party, there's no guidance in a party. I mean, these are people now who don't want peace negotiations in Ukraine. They don't want that. Don't want any anti trans sports laws. They're fine with the girl getting smashed in the head. Okay? Don't want deportation of undocumented migrants. Don't want that. All right? And it goes on and on and on and on. They don't want to keep it. Criminals in jail, generally speaking, they are fine with every kind of destructive behavior you can think of. President Trump's victory is a win for America. That's what most voters think. But bidenomics has left us with a failing economy. I rely on American Hartford Gold to protect my savings with physical gold and silver. And you should consider that American Hartford Gold has thousands of five star ratings and an A plus from the Better Business Bureau. A tax advantage gold IRA can shield you from worsening inflation. You can even roll over your 401k or IRA tax free and penalty free. So act now before it's too late. Call or text American Hartford Gold.

Are you feeling the impact of the recent changes in My friends at Lone Star Transfer are the only company I trust to help you.

For a free consultation and a guaranteed solution. 855-551-7066 or go to lonestartransfer.com and the majority of Americans, even those who don't follow politics and aren't very ideological, they're going, no, we don't want this. And that Democratic Party has not pivoted at all. And they are done, finished. So here's what I said last night on News Nation. Go. What happened was Trump hatred. And that's what the headline is of the street of the speech last night. When you are hating someone, you lose all perspective, you lose all feeling. You're consumed. And I wrote a book that's going to be out in September called Confronting Evil. And these people who did all these terrible things, they all had one thing in common. They hated. They were just haters across the board. That's what you saw in that chamber last night. You saw it from Green. I thought Al Green was the guy who was saying love can keep us together or what. Great soul song. And all of a sudden this guy from Texas looked like he should be starring in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He's up there flailing around. He's got and I'm going, what? Wait, you think you're helping your party? Do you think anybody at home watching this likes this in the House of Representatives? But he couldn't help it because he hates Trump so much. And that's across the booming in the Democratic Party, though, Donald Trump has destroyed temporarily the Democratic Party passively because they hate him so much. Overreach. One more thing about our analysis. We said that Stephen Miller might have written a Trump speech. And the Trump people got to me today and said, Ross Worthington, I don't know him. Tony Dolan and Vince Haley, three of them put together that speech. They all work, obviously, for Donald Trump. So I wanted to mention that. And that's the memo, okay? On Tuesday, the tariffs, the Trump tariffs against China went into effect, 20% on all Chinese goods. That's going to really hurt China's economy is wobbling right now. Remember, 1.5 billion people in China, none of them have any money except the fat cats in Shanghai and Hong Kong and Beijing. But the folks don't have any money. They live a subsistence existence. Now the little they have is in jeopardy. So the Chinese are really angry at Trump and the United States and they put this up on social media. If war is what the US Wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war, or any other type of war, we are ready to fight till the end. That's from the Chinese government was designed to panic the American population. I mean, nobody wants a war with China. That would be mutual destruction. And it's not going to be a war like armies meeting on the plains of Abraham. It's going to be high tech nuke stuff. Everybody dies. Okay, Just keep that in mind. So that was. This is bear. I am watching this. This is very serious. Canada, Mexico, this. You got to watch this. It's got to be handled very, very carefully. Now, I'm set to go to China in the spring. I'm not going to obviously tell everybody what I'm going to do or where I'm going to go, because that wouldn't be wise. But I want to go to get a firsthand look and I will be speaking with important people there. I'm hoping I can go and no craziness breaks out. But it's on the board. But this is a very important story. Ukraine update. So the Trump administration announced is not going to give intelligence to Ukraine for a while today. Tomorrow everything's going to change over there and maybe next week, maybe over the weekend. Okay. But for now, US Officials said that information is no longer being shared with the government of Ukraine. Okay. Another negotiating thing, however, Zelensky's in Brussels, Belgium, for emergency talks with European leaders. Good, good. I mean, I want Europe to do more to help Ukraine and I want the mineral deal with Ukraine for the usa, which I think is going to happen. Okay, now here's something very interesting. We have a poll on billowrilly.com should we continue funding Ukraine? Most in the initial volley say no. They're willing to walk away from Ukraine, which, of course, if Putin participated in the poll. And I understand he gets a lot of what we say. You know, he said no, no, Putin would go now. Okay. So he be on his side of the majority. But this has happened in the past and people don't know. So in 1956, the Soviet Union controlled Hungary, the country of Hungary. And the Hungarians didn't want this oppression. So they rose up and there was a rebellion. Well, a Red army marched right in there, because Soviets were controlling. And they killed about 3,000 civilians, Hungarians, and wounded 20,000 and arrested 26,000, sent them to the gulags out in Siberia. I mean, we didn't do anything. That's Eisenhower. We didn't do a thing. All right? Then in 1968, 12 years later, same thing in Czechoslovakia. They were tired of the Soviets on their necks and they try to rebel once again. Soviet forces, army goes marching right in, all right? And kills 137 civilians. Wounds and more than 500. We didn't do a thing. That was Johnson. He's tied up in Vietnam. We didn't do anything. And then China takes over Tibet. The Communists in Beijing, they go, we're taking over Tibet. That's the Dalai Lama. Listen to this. 1.2 Tibetans have been killed by the Chinese Communists. A million two. And out of that number, it's estimated that 100,000 were tortured to death in Chinese concentration camps. We do anything? No. But it's a different situation now because Putin is on the march. So there was no danger of the Soviet Union not stopping at Hungary or Czechoslovakia and going into Germany and Austria to take it over. That wasn't going to happen. Putin will go as far as he can go. That's why he's on the COVID of Confronting Evil. My book, which will be out in September, this guy is Hitler, okay? He doesn't have the capacity to kill like Hitler, but he's the same mentality. I'm taking it. I don't care how many people die. All right, So a little bit of history for you in this discussion. This is a very strange story. So I get a lot of mail, thousands of pieces of mail a week, and we get them from all precincts. Get. A lot of people write in about Internet stuff, okay? Which is insane. And I keep telling you, if you believe this stuff on the Internet, your life is going to be a shambles because you're not going to know what's true or what isn't true. One of the themes lately has been that the Democrats encouraged Zelensky to misbehave at the Oval Office meeting last Friday. I can't tell you how many letters I've gotten. Oh, the Democrats did this. Here's what happened, okay? Before the meeting, there was a breakfast at the Hay Adams Hotel, which is in Washington, D.C. shishi Place, okay? And there were 11 U.S. senators at the breakfast. Mix between Democrats and Republicans. Here's how Lindsey Graham described it.
[19:35]
Lindsey Graham
President Trump was very excited. President Zelensky's very excited about this economic deal, a half a trillion dollars, folks, is a big deal. This is Donald Trump, the deal maker and peacemaker, on display.
[19:49]
Bill O'Reilly
Okay, that was before the meeting. After. After the senator came out of having breakfast with Zelensky. Everything was fine. Everybody was happy, according to Lindsey Graham and all the other senators, except one, Chris Murphy from Connecticut. So Murphy is a top Trump hater in the Senate now, and he says, quote, just finished the meeting with President Zelensky here in Washington. He confirmed that the Ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where Putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements in Ukraine. Okay, that's Murphy. And he's implying that he had a meeting with Zelensky. Just. Just finished a meeting with Zelensky. He doesn't say there were 10 other senators there. He didn't have a private meeting, Murphy. He was in the same meeting. Lindsey Graham and all the other senators, who none of them say that there was any attempt to convince Zelensky to misbehave. So it's 10 against one. And Murphy's doing this because he hates Trump. You don't think he hates Trump? Listen to this. Go.
[21:09]
Chris Murphy
The only qualification to Donald Trump for you to serve in government is if you pledge a loyalty oath to him personally and are willing to facilitate his corruption. He is trying to turn government into an enrichment vehicle for his billionaire friends. He wants to steal from ordinary people in order to help his mar a lago crowd. And if you aren't interested in that agenda, then you can't work for the President of the United States.
[21:36]
Bill O'Reilly
All right, so Murphy puts out that he met with Zelensky and he told Zelensky, don't accept this deal from Trump. It's a lie. Now, I can't back it up 100%, but all the evidence that I have accumulated, it's just a flat out lie. But the media picked it up, and that's why I'm getting letters about it.

Mike Slater
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 thump the Bible over on Politics by Faith. I think we ought to keep MAGA going. And I think the way to take it beyond just a 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.
[23:07]
Bill O'Reilly
So I thought you needed to know that. All right, another warning. Another day, another warning. Donald Trump warning Hamas. Okay, full screen. This is what he put on Truth Social, I believe. Quote, shalom. Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose release all the hostages now, not later, and immediately return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is over for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted. Sending Israel everything it needs to finish a job. Not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don't do what I say. Okay, True Social yesterday. And we understand from reporting from the Jerusalem Post, which is usually accurate, it's pro Israel, but usually accurate, that in Qatar, the an Arab nation in the Gulf, there is a negotiation going on directly between the United States and Hamas. Okay. The man representing all us, I don't know him. His name is Adam Bowler. Okay. The primary negotiator, Witkoff, is in Ukraine to come up with the mineral deal, which he will. So you need to know that. And Hamas is going to have to give up all hostages or it's going to be an amazing bloodbath and all. They will all die. They'll kill them all. All. Right, On a more mundane basis, but he's everywhere. Trump doesn't sleep. So now he's telling the mayor of Washington D.C. the far left, Muriel Bowser. You better clean up the district, madam. Quote, true Social, we have notified the mayor of Washington D.C. that she must clean up all the unsightly homeless encampments in the city, specifically including the ones outside the State Department near the White House. If she's not capable of doing so, we will be forced to do it for her. It's not as threatening as Hamas, but so this is nonstop. So Bowser can't do it because she doesn't want to do it. A far left person, she doesn't care if they're homeless. Campments, drug addicts running around, carjacking. She couldn't care less about that, you know. So Trump did sign an executive order focused on beautification, clearing homeless camps. Tougher prosecutions for gun crimes and nuisance crimes like public urination and graffiti in Washington, D.C. that's already in play. So now he's gonna, I guess, send out the park service. That's what he would use to get all his homeless people out of there. And Bowser, you know, does Bowser care about all this? No. It's like Woo in Boston and Johnston in Denver and Johnson in Chicago and on and on and on. They don't care because they, their constituency is to hate Trump cadre. Okay, you got a pen? I always say watch and listen on a radio to the no spin news with a pen and paper. Gonna need it for this one. So I'm gonna give you smart life information that you should have. So I know scurry around, get that pen and paper. Here we go. So, as you know, Billorilly.com has a concierge member program. That means you sign up and you have a direct email access to me. And if you get in trouble or you need information, we will respond to you in 24 hours or less, most of the time. And we will help you. My crew will help you. So I'm getting a lot of letters about taxes, that people owe money, that mistakes are made, they don't know what to do. And tax filing is coming up. So here is the information you need. If you have any questions, throw it on up there. I'll read it for the radio people. Main number of the IRS 800, 829 1040. And the IRS says it gets to you fairly quickly. Let me know if that's true or not. If you have a business and you need information about taxes, it's different. 800-829-4933. If you want to find a free tax clinic. And Many people need this 1-800-906-9887. If you want to schedule an appointment with the IRS office near you. 1-844-545-5640. Okay, so if you are a concierge member or a premium member on billoreilly.com, you can get a transcript of what I just said. You'll have it there and I hope you carry them down. Don't mess around with your taxes. That will cause you so much grief. Don't smart life pay it or go into the system and try to negotiate it. Now, there are tax agencies that Negotiate for you, but they charge you a fee. Okay? And I'm not recommending anybody on that. I'm just telling you what your options are, are if you do contact the irs, and this is important as well, on the table in front of you, the phone. You got the table. You have your Social Security number, your date of birth, the last time you filed a tax return, the date and a copy of that tax return. Because the agent who answers the phone or the personnel are going to ask you questions and you want to be stammering around and get the name of the people you're talking to. Not just first name, not just Natalie. I talked to Natalie. Natalie who? I don't know Natalie. Hey, there's 100,000 people working for them. Some of them are named Natalie. And that just doesn't go for the ira, because anybody you're talking to about any business at all, get their full names. If they won't give you the full name, the end of the conversation. That's it. Okay? Smart life. ABC news laying off 200 people. And I'm really sorry. I work for ABC, and I had a very good experience working for them as a correspondent under Peter Jennings, okay? This is just letting people go because ABC is doing bad. That's it. Most of the hemorrhaging is in Good Morning America. So 10 years ago, Good Morning America averaged more than 6 million viewers a day. They're down about two and a half million and sinking. That's a 56% drop. Why are they sinking? Two reasons. A, you don't learn anything on Good Morning America unless you want to make an omelet, okay? I mean, they're not giving you anything. There's nobody there. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. And let's go to the weather. Okay, fine. You can get that on your local. You can get that on the Internet. And the second thing is that people aren't even watching network TV anymore. It's too boring. So they're. You know, when you're down 56%, you can't pay. That's why Doge is cutting all the government jobs, because can't pay. We're bankrupt here in the United States. Now, abc, Disney is not bankrupt because of the theme parks and some of their movies. But they're going, they're hurting on the TV side. This Day in History, March 6, 1981. Walter Cronkite hangs it up, okay? 64 years old, CBF says, hey, Walt, once you're out of there, you're too old. Got to go home. So Walter Did Dan Rather took over, and that was the beginning of CBS News decline. So the high point was when Walter was there. Now, I met Cronkite a few times. One was when I was anchoring for the CBS affiliate in Hartford, Connecticut. And we went down to New York to give Walter some pointers. You can see me explaining to him how he should deliver the news. And he wasn't the warmest guy in the world, Walter. But I interviewed him right after he was forced to retire when I was working in Boston as an anchor. And he told me I made a mistake. I should have fought this. And I felt bad, you know, for him, because Rather came in and brought a lot of politics. Now, Walter Cronkite was a liberal man. There's no doubt about it. He was. But he didn't let that bleed over very this. And because he was old school, started his career in 1939, okay, writing for the UPI, which was a wire service. Then he covered World War II, and that was the big break, okay? He was the UP United Press International bureau chief in Moscow. And he came up the hard way. He came up just to fax Jack Webb, you know, that kind of thing. But he was the most powerful anchorman by far in the history of this country. Walter Cronkite. When he turned against the Vietnam War. After visiting Vietnam, it was over. Even President Johnson said, I lost Cronkite and it's over. All right? So he hung it up 44 years ago today. Back with the final thought in a moment. Okay, final thought. Yesterday was a very sad day here. Holly passed away. So I wrote a message of the day, which I hope you read every day on billoriley.com. it's free. There's me and the Terror Dog, and I will read you the message. Okay? We lost a family member on Wednesday, a beautiful cross corgi named Holly. Brain tumor, nine and a half years old. A good dog in every way. As a puppy, I branded her the Terror Dog because she tried to eat the living room. Many of you know Holly because we appointed her to the mascot of all of the O'Reilly Enterprises. We did everything we could to fight the brain tumor malady. And Holly was loved every minute of every day. Someone asked me how I can anchor a new show knowing about her condition, and I simply said, compartmentalize. My son asked for a Corgi in 2015. It was an easy decision. Pets enhance lives. Children cherish them. When I brought Holly home, he cried with joy. Best moment as Holly as a pup. There's A time for every season. Bible verse goes, and of course it's true. Nothing can stop fate. What we can do is protect those we love and look out for them. That's often not easy, but good people know it's imperative. Ali enriched all of our lives here in the O'Reilly home, and she will never be forgotten. I'm extremely fortunate to have had her company. There I am with Holly in the signature picture. And, you know, we're all grieving, and everybody grieves in different ways, and it's normal and natural to do that. You know, if you're grieving, you'd grieve. That's a good thing. And so what I've decided to do is make a big photo album. We do have it on billorilly.com I'm gonna. We have all the pictures, and you can go see them, but I'm gonna do it for my family. And let's make a big album of Holly pictures. Because memories are very important. This is. A lot of people don't respect their memories. Even the bad memories will teach you something. But the good memories really enhance all our lives because every day is new and everything changes. You know, it's never the same. We want to keep it the same, particularly the good times. I mean, I wish Holly were sitting with me right now, but we can. What we can do is preserve the memories, respect the memories. And I'm going to do that with a big photo album of Holly. And I'm very grateful, by the way, because it was. If it wasn't for my son. I'm a really busy guy and travel all over and everything, but I wouldn't probably have gotten Holly if it wasn't for Spencer. And he really wanted a corgi. And I went down to Georgia, at Abrida in Georgia to get her. And, you know, I knew that my son and daughter were going to be thrilled about it, but I didn't know how emotional I would be with the dog. The dog was, you know, a very important part of our lives here. And it was such a nice dog. It was even impossible to get mad, to get mad at the dog. Dog is just eating when she's a puppy. See, every. I just couldn't get mad at the dog. You know, I just. Anyway, nine and a half years, you know, I woke up this morning and kind of looking around and you know how it is. We all go through it, whether it's a person, whether it's a pet. We all go through it. Personal loss, people but wouldn't trade those times for anything. Thank you for watching and listening to the no Spin News. We'll see you again on Monday.

Podcast Summary: Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis Episode: Donald Trump vs. the Press, China Strikes Back Over U.S. Tariffs, Fact-Check on Zelensky's Meeting With Democrats & Trump's Warning to Hamas Release Date: March 7, 2025

Introduction

In the March 7, 2025 episode of Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis, host Bill O’Reilly delves into a variety of pressing political issues, offering his signature "no spin" perspective. The episode covers the tumultuous relationship between former President Donald Trump and the media, the escalating trade tensions between the United States and China, a fact-check on President Volodymyr Zelensky's meeting with Democratic senators, and Trump's stern warnings to Hamas. Additionally, O’Reilly shares a personal reflection on the loss of his beloved dog, Holly, tying it into broader themes of memory and loss.

Donald Trump vs. the Press

O’Reilly begins by addressing the ongoing adversarial relationship between Donald Trump and the media. He recounts a particular incident following a speech by Trump, where the former president made a cryptic remark to Chief Justice John Roberts.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [03:21]: "After Tuesday's speech, Donald Trump left the stage and was walking out of the House chamber. He passed Chief Justice John Roberts and Donald Trump said this: 'Go. Thank you again. Thank you again. Don't forget.'"

O’Reilly suggests that Trump's thanks to Roberts were significant, hinting at the Chief Justice's support during Trump's legal challenges, specifically referencing a ruling on presidential immunity that O’Reilly claims facilitated Trump's re-election.

Commentator Insight [03:36]: "Donald Trump understands that John Roberts is his guy who sprang him and saved him from prosecution with his ruling on presidential immunity."

Despite the lack of context provided by Trump for his comments, O’Reilly criticizes media figures like Hayes and Behar for their negative interpretations, asserting that their remarks are baseless and driven by a hatred for Trump.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [04:05]: "I understand they are going crazy asking what it is that I was thanking Justice Roberts for. They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had, I would have told these sleazebag journalists that I thanked him for swearing me in on Inauguration Day and doing a really good job in so doing."

O’Reilly further condemns left-wing media outlets, predicting their decline due to a disconnect with the majority of Americans.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [03:57]: "The good news is the left wing media is finished in America. It's done."

He emphasizes the perceived downfall of the Democratic Party, attributing it to internal disarray and lack of leadership, especially in legislative actions where Republicans are shown supporting victims, while Democrats remain apathetic.

China Strikes Back Over U.S. Tariffs

Transitioning to international trade, O’Reilly discusses the implementation of new tariffs by the Trump administration aimed at China's economy.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [19:35]: "On Tuesday, the tariffs, the Trump tariffs against China went into effect, 20% on all Chinese goods. That's going to really hurt China's economy is wobbling right now."

He highlights the economic strain these tariffs place on China's populace, arguing that while the elite in cities like Shanghai may remain unaffected, the general population faces significant hardships, potentially inciting anger towards the U.S.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [19:35]: "But the folks don't have any money. They live a subsistence existence. Now the little they have is in jeopardy."

O’Reilly warns of the severe repercussions if trade tensions escalate into more destructive conflicts, underscoring the catastrophic potential of a high-tech nuclear war.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [03:21]: "If war is what the US Wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war, or any other type of war, we are ready to fight till the end. That's from the Chinese government was designed to panic the American population."

He expresses his intent to visit China to gain firsthand insights into the situation, hinting at the delicate balance required to prevent further escalation.

Fact-Check on Zelensky's Meeting With Democrats

O’Reilly addresses rumors and misinformation surrounding President Zelensky's interactions with Democratic senators. He scrutinizes claims that Democrats influenced Zelensky to act against Trump's interests during their meeting.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [21:09]: "Chris Murphy... says, 'The only qualification to Donald Trump for you to serve in government is if you pledge a loyalty oath to him personally and are willing to facilitate his corruption.'"

He contrasts this with statements from Republican senators like Lindsey Graham, who portrayed the meeting positively, emphasizing Trump's role as a dealmaker.

Notable Quote:
Lindsey Graham [19:35]: "President Trump was very excited. President Zelensky's very excited about this economic deal, a half a trillion dollars, folks, is a big deal."

O’Reilly contends that Murphy’s negative portrayal is baseless and driven by personal animosity towards Trump, lacking any substantive evidence to support claims of Democratic interference.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [21:35]: "Murphy puts out that he met with Zelensky and he told Zelensky, don't accept this deal from Trump. It's a lie."

He debunks the narrative that Democrats coerced Zelensky, asserting that the majority of senators did not convey such messages, thereby framing Murphy’s statements as isolated and partisan.

Trump's Warning to Hamas

A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to Trump's stern messages directed at Hamas, reflecting ongoing tensions in the Middle East.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [23:06]: "Donald Trump warning Hamas. Quote, 'shalom. Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose to release all the hostages now, not later, and immediately return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is over for you.'"

O’Reilly underscores Trump's aggressive stance, indicating that Hamas faces severe consequences if their demands are not met. He references ongoing negotiations in Qatar between the U.S. and Hamas, suggesting a strategic positioning to pressure the group.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [23:06]: "The Chinese are really angry at Trump and the United States and they put this up on social media."

O’Reilly also touches on domestic issues, such as the executive order aimed at addressing homelessness and public nuisance in Washington D.C., critiquing Mayor Muriel Bowser's perceived inaction.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [23:06]: "Trump did sign an executive order focused on beautification, clearing homeless camps. Tougher prosecutions for gun crimes and nuisance crimes like public urination and graffiti in Washington, D.C."

He parallels these actions with broader patterns in other major cities, highlighting a persistent divide between local administrations and Trump's policies.

Personal Reflection: Remembering Holly

In a heartfelt personal segment, O’Reilly shares the passing of his corgi, Holly, weaving in themes of memory and loss that resonate beyond the political discourse.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [23:06]: "We lost a family member on Wednesday, a beautiful corgi named Holly. Brain tumor, nine and a half years old. A good dog in every way."

He reflects on the importance of preserving memories, both good and bad, and emphasizes the role of pets in enriching lives and providing emotional support amidst a hectic schedule.

Notable Quote:
Bill O'Reilly [23:06]: "Memories are very important. This is...we can preserve the memories, respect the memories."

Bill O'Reilly
Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the no Spin News for Thursday, March 6, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, just before tape time, President Trump announced he's pausing tariffs on Mexico. I wasn't surprised. I told you from the very beginning all this tariff stuff is negotiation. But apparently Donald Trump and the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, are getting along now and she's doing what he wants. So he's pausing the tariffs. Not in Canada. Justin Trudeau and Donald Trump don't like each other at all. A lot of that is cultural goes back. I do expect some detente with Canada because again, Donald Trump pretty much going to get what he wants the Canadians to do, which is seal up the border and bring down their tariffs on American goods. But this is fluid, okay? And everybody overreacts to it, particularly the media that doesn't care about any accuracy or perspective. Just keep in mind the end game and keep it here and I will tell you exactly what is going on. Now, something that's never going to work out is President Trump's relationship with the press. That is the subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo. So what I'm about to tell you is appalling. There's no other word for it. After Tuesday's speech, Donald Trump left the stage and was walking out of the House chamber. He passed Chief Justice John Roberts and Donald Trump said this. Go. Thank you again. Thank you again. Don't forget. Okay, so what was he talking about? Thank you again. I'll never forget it. Nobody knows. Oh, that didn't stop the Trump haters Did it? You couldn't possibly have known what he's talking about. There's no context provided at all. Yet. Here they go. Roll it.
[03:21]
Commentator
Thank you again. Thank you again. Won't forget Donald Trump understands that John Roberts is his guy who sprang him and saved him from prosecution with his ruling on presidential immunity, which ultimately paved the way for Trump to be elected president again.
[03:37]
And there was a moment there that really stopped my heart. And that was when Trump shook hands with the members of the Supreme Court who were there, and those were Kavanaugh, Kagan, Barrett, and Justice Roberts. He said to Justice Roberts, thank you again. Thank you again. Won't forget it. Now, what do you think he was referring to? Something like that.
[03:58]
Bill O'Reilly
I thought he helped him get into the men's room.
[04:00]
Commentator
Well, no, the immunity that he basically passed on.
[04:05]
Bill O'Reilly
Okay, so we know who those people are. They have freedom of speech, but the companies that employ them are responsible for what they are saying on national television. Keep that in mind. So Trump heard about this, and here's how he reacted on social media. Quote, I understand they are going crazy asking what it is that I was thanking Justice Roberts for. They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had, I would have told these sleazebag journalists that I thanked him for swearing me in on Inauguration Day and doing a really good job in so doing. The fake news never quits. All right, there it is. Now the Trump haters goes, oh, I don't believe Trump. Okay, fine, you don't have to believe what you believe what you want to believe, and we all know that is going on. But there is an explanation. And both Hayes and Behar have no backup, none, no context for what they said. They just said it because they hate Trump. So ABC News, that's the View, and NBC News, they've let MSNBC go, but they still control what is said on the air. Should suspend those two people, Hayes and Behar, right, because of their irresponsible and dishonest remarks. Should, won't. So that's Comcast and Disney. And this is what, the 10,000th time this has happened and you still have 2 million people watching the View. And Hayes, he barely gets. I mean, I crushed that man every single day for 20 years. Crushed him head to head. He never had anything. He's a hater. Okay? The reason that I'm making a big deal out of this is because it influences the culture. The good news is the left wing media is finished in America. It's done. All right, ABC is laying off 200 people, I'll tell you about that later. But it's not coming back. And the reason is because the ideology that they're pushing, cnn, MSNBC and the networks, it's not acceptable for the majority of Americans. Simple. It's just a numbers game. Okay? So they're done. More importantly, much more importantly, the Democratic Party itself is finished for the short term. It'll come back someday. But now it's done. And that happened on Tuesday night as well. So President Trump, as all presidents do, brought in a number of people to highlight in his speech. Lake and Riley, the college student in Georgia was murdered. Her mother and sister, a 13 year old African American boy had cancer who, who wanted to be a law enforcement agent. He was given Secret Service credentials. A young woman who was competing against a trans man who smashed a volleyball against her head and gave her brain damage. All these people, okay? The Democrats in the chamber did not applaud for any of them. None of them. And you saw that on your television screen. While the Republicans stood up and cheered all of these people on, the Democrats just sat there. You're a 13 year old cancer victim who gets credentials for the Secret Service. You can't applaud for that. Something seriously wrong in that party. And we all know there is, there's no leadership in the party, there's no guidance in a party. I mean, these are people now who don't want peace negotiations in Ukraine. They don't want that. Don't want any anti trans sports laws. They're fine with the girl getting smashed in the head. Okay? Don't want deportation of undocumented migrants. Don't want that. All right? And it goes on and on and on and on. They don't want to keep it. Criminals in jail, generally speaking, they are fine with every kind of destructive behavior you can think of. President Trump's victory is a win for America. That's what most voters think. But bidenomics has left us with a failing economy. I rely on American Hartford Gold to protect my savings with physical gold and silver. And you should consider that American Hartford Gold has thousands of five star ratings and an A plus from the Better Business Bureau. A tax advantage gold IRA can shield you from worsening inflation.

And that Democratic Party has not pivoted at all. And they are done, finished. So here's what I said last night on News Nation. Go. What happened was Trump hatred. And that's what the headline is of the street of the speech last night. When you are hating someone, you lose all perspective, you lose all feeling. You're consumed. And I wrote a book that's going to be out in September called Confronting Evil. And these people who did all these terrible things, they all had one thing in common. They hated. They were just haters across the board. That's what you saw in that chamber last night. You saw it from Green. I thought Al Green was the guy who was saying love can keep us together or what. Great soul song. And all of a sudden this guy from Texas looked like he should be starring in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He's up there flailing around. He's got and I'm going, what? Wait, you think you're helping your party? Do you think anybody at home watching this likes this in the House of Representatives? But he couldn't help it because he hates Trump so much. And that's across the booming in the Democratic Party, though, Donald Trump has destroyed temporarily the Democratic Party passively because they hate him so much. Overreach. One more thing about our analysis. We said that Stephen Miller might have written a Trump speech. And the Trump people got to me today and said, Ross Worthington, I don't know him. Tony Dolan and Vince Haley, three of them put together that speech. They all work, obviously, for Donald Trump. So I wanted to mention that. And that's the memo, okay? On Tuesday, the tariffs, the Trump tariffs against China went into effect, 20% on all Chinese goods. That's going to really hurt China's economy is wobbling right now. Remember, 1.5 billion people in China, none of them have any money except the fat cats in Shanghai and Hong Kong and Beijing. But the folks don't have any money. They live a subsistence existence. Now the little they have is in jeopardy. So the Chinese are really angry at Trump and the United States and they put this up on social media. If war is what the US Wants, be it a tariff war, a trade war, or any other type of war, we are ready to fight till the end. That's from the Chinese government was designed to panic the American population. I mean, nobody wants a war with China. That would be mutual destruction. And it's not going to be a war like armies meeting on the plains of Abraham. It's going to be high tech nuke stuff. Everybody dies. Okay, Just keep that in mind. So that was. This is bear. I am watching this. This is very serious. Canada, Mexico, this. You got to watch this. It's got to be handled very, very carefully. Now, I'm set to go to China in the spring. I'm not going to obviously tell everybody what I'm going to do or where I'm going to go, because that wouldn't be wise. But I want to go to get a firsthand look and I will be speaking with important people there. I'm hoping I can go and no craziness breaks out. But it's on the board. But this is a very important story. Ukraine update. So the Trump administration announced is not going to give intelligence to Ukraine for a while today. Tomorrow everything's going to change over there and maybe next week, maybe over the weekend. Okay. But for now, US Officials said that information is no longer being shared with the government of Ukraine. Okay. Another negotiating thing, however, Zelensky's in Brussels, Belgium, for emergency talks with European leaders. Good, good. I mean, I want Europe to do more to help Ukraine and I want the mineral deal with Ukraine for the usa, which I think is going to happen. Okay, now here's something very interesting. We have a poll on billowrilly.com should we continue funding Ukraine? Most in the initial volley say no. They're willing to walk away from Ukraine, which, of course, if Putin participated in the poll. And I understand he gets a lot of what we say. You know, he said no, no, Putin would go now. Okay. So he be on his side of the majority. But this has happened in the past and people don't know. So in 1956, the Soviet Union controlled Hungary, the country of Hungary. And the Hungarians didn't want this oppression. So they rose up and there was a rebellion. Well, a Red army marched right in there, because Soviets were controlling. And they killed about 3,000 civilians, Hungarians, and wounded 20,000 and arrested 26,000, sent them to the gulags out in Siberia. I mean, we didn't do anything. That's Eisenhower. We didn't do a thing. All right? Then in 1968, 12 years later, same thing in Czechoslovakia. They were tired of the Soviets on their necks and they try to rebel once again. Soviet forces, army goes marching right in, all right? And kills 137 civilians. Wounds and more than 500. We didn't do a thing. That was Johnson. He's tied up in Vietnam. We didn't do anything. And then China takes over Tibet. The Communists in Beijing, they go, we're taking over Tibet. That's the Dalai Lama. Listen to this. 1.2 Tibetans have been killed by the Chinese Communists. A million two. And out of that number, it's estimated that 100,000 were tortured to death in Chinese concentration camps. We do anything? No. But it's a different situation now because Putin is on the march. So there was no danger of the Soviet Union not stopping at Hungary or Czechoslovakia and going into Germany and Austria to take it over. That wasn't going to happen. Putin will go as far as he can go. That's why he's on the COVID of Confronting Evil. My book, which will be out in September, this guy is Hitler, okay? He doesn't have the capacity to kill like Hitler, but he's the same mentality. I'm taking it. I don't care how many people die. All right, So a little bit of history for you in this discussion. This is a very strange story. So I get a lot of mail, thousands of pieces of mail a week, and we get them from all precincts. Get. A lot of people write in about Internet stuff, okay? Which is insane. And I keep telling you, if you believe this stuff on the Internet, your life is going to be a shambles because you're not going to know what's true or what isn't true. One of the themes lately has been that the Democrats encouraged Zelensky to misbehave at the Oval Office meeting last Friday. I can't tell you how many letters I've gotten. Oh, the Democrats did this. Here's what happened, okay? Before the meeting, there was a breakfast at the Hay Adams Hotel, which is in Washington, D.C. shishi Place, okay? And there were 11 U.S. senators at the breakfast. Mix between Democrats and Republicans. Here's how Lindsey Graham described it.
[19:35]
Lindsey Graham
President Trump was very excited. President Zelensky's very excited about this economic deal, a half a trillion dollars, folks, is a big deal. This is Donald Trump, the deal maker and peacemaker, on display.
[19:49]
Bill O'Reilly
Okay, that was before the meeting. After. After the senator came out of having breakfast with Zelensky. Everything was fine. Everybody was happy, according to Lindsey Graham and all the other senators, except one, Chris Murphy from Connecticut. So Murphy is a top Trump hater in the Senate now, and he says, quote, just finished the meeting with President Zelensky here in Washington. He confirmed that the Ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where Putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements in Ukraine. Okay, that's Murphy. And he's implying that he had a meeting with Zelensky. Just. Just finished a meeting with Zelensky. He doesn't say there were 10 other senators there. He didn't have a private meeting, Murphy. He was in the same meeting. Lindsey Graham and all the other senators, who none of them say that there was any attempt to convince Zelensky to misbehave. So it's 10 against one. And Murphy's doing this because he hates Trump. You don't think he hates Trump? Listen to this. Go.
[21:09]
Chris Murphy
The only qualification to Donald Trump for you to serve in government is if you pledge a loyalty oath to him personally and are willing to facilitate his corruption. He is trying to turn government into an enrichment vehicle for his billionaire friends. He wants to steal from ordinary people in order to help his mar a lago crowd. And if you aren't interested in that agenda, then you can't work for the President of the United States.
[21:36]
Bill O'Reilly
All right, so Murphy puts out that he met with Zelensky and he told Zelensky, don't accept this deal from Trump. It's a lie. Now, I can't back it up 100%, but all the evidence that I have accumulated, it's just a flat out lie. But the media picked it up, and that's why I'm getting letters about it.

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 thump the Bible over on Politics by Faith. I think we ought to keep MAGA going. And I think the way to take it beyond just a 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.
[23:07]
Bill O'Reilly
So I thought you needed to know that. All right, another warning. Another day, another warning. Donald Trump warning Hamas. Okay, full screen. This is what he put on Truth Social, I believe. Quote, shalom. Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose release all the hostages now, not later, and immediately return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is over for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted. Sending Israel everything it needs to finish a job. Not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don't do what I say. Okay, True Social yesterday. And we understand from reporting from the Jerusalem Post, which is usually accurate, it's pro Israel, but usually accurate, that in Qatar, the an Arab nation in the Gulf, there is a negotiation going on directly between the United States and Hamas. Okay. The man representing all us, I don't know him. His name is Adam Bowler. Okay. The primary negotiator, Witkoff, is in Ukraine to come up with the mineral deal, which he will. So you need to know that. And Hamas is going to have to give up all hostages or it's going to be an amazing bloodbath and all. They will all die. They'll kill them all. All. Right, On a more mundane basis, but he's everywhere. Trump doesn't sleep. So now he's telling the mayor of Washington D.C. the far left, Muriel Bowser. You better clean up the district, madam. Quote, true Social, we have notified the mayor of Washington D.C. that she must clean up all the unsightly homeless encampments in the city, specifically including the ones outside the State Department near the White House. If she's not capable of doing so, we will be forced to do it for her. It's not as threatening as Hamas, but so this is nonstop. So Bowser can't do it because she doesn't want to do it. A far left person, she doesn't care if they're homeless. Campments, drug addicts running around, carjacking. She couldn't care less about that, you know. So Trump did sign an executive order focused on beautification, clearing homeless camps. Tougher prosecutions for gun crimes and nuisance crimes like public urination and graffiti in Washington, D.C. that's already in play. So now he's gonna, I guess, send out the park service. That's what he would use to get all his homeless people out of there. And Bowser, you know, does Bowser care about all this? No. It's like Woo in Boston and Johnston in Denver and Johnson in Chicago and on and on and on. They don't care because they, their constituency is to hate Trump cadre. Okay, you got a pen? I always say watch and listen on a radio to the no spin news with a pen and paper. Gonna need it for this one. So I'm gonna give you smart life information that you should have. So I know scurry around, get that pen and paper. Here we go. So, as you know, Billorilly.com has a concierge member program. That means you sign up and you have a direct email access to me.

Okay, so if you are a concierge member or a premium member on billoreilly.com, you can get a transcript of what I just said. You'll have it there and I hope you carry them down. Don't mess around with your taxes. That will cause you so much grief. Don't smart life pay it or go into the system and try to negotiate it. Now, there are tax agencies that Negotiate for you, but they charge you a fee. Okay? And I'm not recommending anybody on that. I'm just telling you what your options are, are if you do contact the irs, and this is important as well, on the table in front of you, the phone. You got the table. You have your Social Security number, your date of birth, the last time you filed a tax return, the date and a copy of that tax return. Because the agent who answers the phone or the personnel are going to ask you questions and you want to be stammering around and get the name of the people you're talking to. Not just first name, not just Natalie. I talked to Natalie. Natalie who? I don't know Natalie. Hey, there's 100,000 people working for them. Some of them are named Natalie. And that just doesn't go for the ira, because anybody you're talking to about any business at all, get their full names. If they won't give you the full name, the end of the conversation. That's it. Okay? Smart life. ABC news laying off 200 people. And I'm really sorry. I work for ABC, and I had a very good experience working for them as a correspondent under Peter Jennings, okay? This is just letting people go because ABC is doing bad. That's it. Most of the hemorrhaging is in Good Morning America. So 10 years ago, Good Morning America averaged more than 6 million viewers a day. They're down about two and a half million and sinking. That's a 56% drop. Why are they sinking? Two reasons. A, you don't learn anything on Good Morning America unless you want to make an omelet, okay? I mean, they're not giving you anything. There's nobody there. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. And let's go to the weather. Okay, fine. You can get that on your local. You can get that on the Internet. And the second thing is that people aren't even watching network TV anymore. It's too boring. So they're. You know, when you're down 56%, you can't pay. That's why Doge is cutting all the government jobs, because can't pay. We're bankrupt here in the United States. Now, abc, Disney is not bankrupt because of the theme parks and some of their movies. But they're going, they're hurting on the TV side. This Day in History, March 6, 1981. Walter Cronkite hangs it up, okay? 64 years old, CBF says, hey, Walt, once you're out of there, you're too old. Got to go home. So Walter Did Dan Rather took over, and that was the beginning of CBS News decline. So the high point was when Walter was there. Now, I met Cronkite a few times. One was when I was anchoring for the CBS affiliate in Hartford, Connecticut. And we went down to New York to give Walter some pointers. You can see me explaining to him how he should deliver the news. And he wasn't the warmest guy in the world, Walter. But I interviewed him right after he was forced to retire when I was working in Boston as an anchor. And he told me I made a mistake. I should have fought this. And I felt bad, you know, for him, because Rather came in and brought a lot of politics. Now, Walter Cronkite was a liberal man. There's no doubt about it. He was. But he didn't let that bleed over very this. And because he was old school, started his career in 1939, okay, writing for the UPI, which was a wire service. Then he covered World War II, and that was the big break, okay? He was the UP United Press International bureau chief in Moscow. And he came up the hard way. He came up just to fax Jack Webb, you know, that kind of thing. But he was the most powerful anchorman by far in the history of this country. Walter Cronkite. When he turned against the Vietnam War. After visiting Vietnam, it was over. Even President Johnson said, I lost Cronkite and it's over. All right? So he hung it up 44 years ago today. Back with the final thought in a moment. Okay, final thought. Yesterday was a very sad day here. Holly passed away. So I wrote a message of the day, which I hope you read every day on billoriley.com. it's free. There's me and the Terror Dog, and I will read you the message. Okay? We lost a family member on Wednesday, a beautiful cross corgi named Holly. Brain tumor, nine and a half years old. A good dog in every way. As a puppy, I branded her the Terror Dog because she tried to eat the living room. Many of you know Holly because we appointed her to the mascot of all of the O'Reilly Enterprises. We did everything we could to fight the brain tumor malady. And Holly was loved every minute of every day. Someone asked me how I can anchor a new show knowing about her condition, and I simply said, compartmentalize. My son asked for a Corgi in 2015. It was an easy decision. Pets enhance lives. Children cherish them. When I brought Holly home, he cried with joy. Best moment as Holly as a pup. There's A time for every season. Bible verse goes, and of course it's true. Nothing can stop fate. What we can do is protect those we love and look out for them. That's often not easy, but good people know it's imperative. Ali enriched all of our lives here in the O'Reilly home, and she will never be forgotten. I'm extremely fortunate to have had her company. There I am with Holly in the signature picture. And, you know, we're all grieving, and everybody grieves in different ways, and it's normal and natural to do that. You know, if you're grieving, you'd grieve. That's a good thing. And so what I've decided to do is make a big photo album. We do have it on billorilly.com I'm gonna. We have all the pictures, and you can go see them, but I'm gonna do it for my family. And let's make a big album of Holly pictures. Because memories are very important. This is. A lot of people don't respect their memories. Even the bad memories will teach you something. But the good memories really enhance all our lives because every day is new and everything changes. You know, it's never the same. We want to keep it the same, particularly the good times. I mean, I wish Holly were sitting with me right now, but we can. What we can do is preserve the memories, respect the memories. And I'm going to do that with a big photo album of Holly. And I'm very grateful, by the way, because it was. If it wasn't for my son. I'm a really busy guy and travel all over and everything, but I wouldn't probably have gotten Holly if it wasn't for Spencer. And he really wanted a corgi. And I went down to Georgia, at Abrida in Georgia to get her. And, you know, I knew that my son and daughter were going to be thrilled about it, but I didn't know how emotional I would be with the dog. The dog was, you know, a very important part of our lives here. And it was such a nice dog. It was even impossible to get mad, to get mad at the dog. Dog is just eating when she's a puppy. See, every. I just couldn't get mad at the dog. You know, I just. Anyway, nine and a half years, you know, I woke up this morning and kind of looking around and you know how it is. We all go through it, whether it's a person, whether it's a pet. We all go through it. Personal loss, people but wouldn't trade those times for anything. Thank you for watching and listening to the no Spin News. We'll see you again on Monday.
