Bill O'Reilly
Foreign here. Welcome to the no spin news. Wednesday, July 2, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, the nation awaits the House vote on the big bill. I was on Hannity's radio program today. He said it would come tomorrow or next week. I don't know. He talks to the Republicans a lot more than I do because I never talk to them. Nobody ever calls me. That's not true. But very few people do. I can't predict. I can't predict whether the bill will pass in the House. There's lots of backroom dealings going on. As you may know, a senator from Alaska, Lisa Murkowski, was bought and she voted for the bill, which put it over the top in the Senate. By being bought, I mean that Alaska's getting a lot of subsidies from the federal government in return for Ms. Murkowski's support. And that's the way it goes. So the dissenting Republican congresspeople, they're dealing with them now, trying to convince them that this, that and the other thing. Hannity believes the bill will pass. I just don't know whether it will or not. Any Republican in the House voting against the big bill is crucifying his or her own party. Republicans don't pass this bill, the Democrats rise from the dead, Literally rise from the dead. And we've been over this and over this and over this. Anyway, I hope that the bill passes not for partisan reasons. It gives working people a break across the board, break financially. That's why I would vote for it. I hate the pork, and it's in there. But you got to give the folks at this point in history a break in America if it does pass. President Trump emerges triumphant in his first six months. That is the subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo. So let's run it down. The successes of Donald Trump. Now, his dissenters, people that hate him will never acknowledge, but normal people who believe in honesty, in fact, finding will. First thing is a border sealed. All right. Biden couldn't do it, wouldn't do it, didn't want to do it. And that led to bedlam in the United States. Trump sealed the border in first two months. So far, about 210,000 people have been deported, undocumented people, and there are currently 60,000 being detained. That's according to Homeland Security and the NBC News Deportation Tracker. Wow. So that's been a big success with the exception of the deportations, which I told you before Trump was elected was, you know, going to be very difficult to do. And a lot of these people are questionable whether they should be booted out without due process. But let's give that a big win because the intrusion of foreign nationals into the USA undocumented has largely stopped. Very good for the country. Second one, Trump bombed Iran successfully into marginalization country is not nearly the threat that it was a month ago. It's a big victory. Stock market about the same, but that's kind of a victory for the Trump administration because it was at a very high level under Biden. And was that a Biden achievement, keeping the stock level high? Not really, because Covid caused the massive spending that bolstered consumerism in America. And remember, the economy goes the way you go. You spend, the economy is good. You don't, the economy goes down. It's a very simple concept. You don't have to go get an advanced degree in economics. So the stock market's holding its own. If this big bill passes, you'll see a surge. That will happen. The bill itself, you know, look, do you call it a success? You do, because it buys Trump time to do the other things he wants to do. Another success. Trump embarrassed the progressive state of California by sending the National Guard to quell the ice Riots humiliated that state, and it deserved to be humiliated. The governor, California Newsom and the mayor of L. A were not going to stop the violence. I'm not going to go accuse them of fostering it, but they don't want to stop it. Trump recognized it right away. No other guard went anywhere else. Okay, Trump's pounding the media into pudding, so I'll tell you about it in a moment. But last night, CBS settled with Trump for 16 million. That'll go to his library and legal fares. ABC on December 24th reached a settlement with Trump for another 16 million. Meta Facebook, Instagram settled for 25 million. Trust beating these guys. He's beating him down. He's got the power. So, first six months, pretty good resume, right? Here's the danger. Arrogance. I've seen it and it happened all throughout history. Once the administration gets a little momentum, some people within the administration get very arrogant. And I'm seeing it now. I'm not going to give you names, but I might, I might. If they're hurting you, if they begin to hurt you with their arrogance. I haven't seen a change in Trump. I haven't seen pretty much the same guy. But some of his underlings will take it with themselves. Not good. You're public servants. That is your job. Not to strut around saying, I'm great. Okay? And that's a memo. So the settlement from CBS is interesting. So Paramount owns cbs. They want to sell the whole thing to a company called Skydance. Trump is never going to approve that unless CBS capitulated, which they did last night. Okay, I told you 16 million. Now this is all about 60 minutes. 60 minutes wanted Kamala Harris to win the election. There's no doubt about it. You just go back and look at the transcripts as I have. And it's all about promoting Kamala and diminishing. Trump on 60 Minutes carried over to Nightly News somewhat CBS Morning. Yeah, but the whole news organization was behind Kamala. That is a fair assessment backed up by transcripts. Now, the big one was the interview that Bill Whitaker, CBS correspondent, 60 Minutes, did with Kamala Harris. So Trump was angry that the promotion for the piece, that's the commercial, was different than what Kamala Harris said within the body of the story. I don't think that CBS would have lost that case in court. There is a difference. But is it egregious? So Trump sued them for billions of dollars saying you interfere with the election. The bigger picture is what's important. And this is what I'm going to zero in on. So I'm hard on the media because I know, I don't think it's not an opinion. I know that the corporate media has gone far left. Let's face it, the US Economy is under stress, national debt rising, trade war shaking the markets. And meanwhile, China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. And you can do this, get precious metals delivered to your door or place in a tax advantage, Gold IRA. They'll even help you roll over your existing IRA or 401k tax and penalty free with billions in precious metals delivered thousands of five star reviews and an A from the Better Business Bureau. You can trust American Hartford Gold as I do. Please call 866-326-5576 or text Bill to 998-899. Again, that's 866-326-5576, or text Bill to 998-899.

It has. That's. That's the truth. Okay, so when I watched the Kamala Harris Bill Whitaker interview, I didn't much like it. This sound bite happened October 8, 2024. Go. Whitaker should have bang. Give me one solution you've offered in the first year of the Biden administration. Give me one. Because she always falls back on. Oh, Trump killed the immigration bill that Charles Schumer ginned up early this year. That's what she always Give me one that you did in the first year that is a solution to the open border. She couldn't do it. Whitaker booted it. He booted it because he didn't anticipate the boldness of the lie that what she just said from day one, literally, we have been offering solutions is about the biggest falsehood I have heard from any politician in the last decade. And the truth is backed up by Trump, who shut down the border and stopped the illegal immigration asylum madness in two months. And Harris going. So Whitaker was soft on her. Okay, I'm going to give you two examples. Here is the softest of the soft To Kamala Harris from Bill Whitaker. Go. Let's shift gears here. Most basic of questions. Why do you want to be president of the United States?
Caitlin Becker
There are many reasons, but probably first and foremost, I truly believe in the promise of America. I do. And I love the American people. You know, we are a people who.
Bill O'Reilly
Have.
Caitlin Becker
Ambition and aspirations and dreams and optimism and hope.
Bill O'Reilly
No, please. Number one, she loves the American people. She doesn't love me. She doesn't love the MAGA people, doesn't love Trump. She doesn't love anybody who opposes her. Now, Whitaker just sat there and let her go on and on about her love for the people and her hope and aspiration. This is not an interview. It's not the way it's done. You've been watching me for almost 30 years. You know how an interview on television should be done. This is gibberish. Okay, now let's be fair to Whitaker. He's been around a long time. I don't know him. Here's a hard question. He asked go. You were for Medicare for All. Now you're not so many that people don't truly know what you believe or what you stand for. And I know you've heard that in.
Caitlin Becker
The last four years, I have been vice president of the United States and I have been traveling our country and I have been listening to folks and seeking what is possible in terms of common ground. I believe in building consensus.
Bill O'Reilly
More gibberish. Okay. And when the interview subject descends into that kind of banality, the interviewer, me or Whitaker, has got to jump in and go, wait a minute. I asked you why you change your opinion on Medicare. Can you answer that? Madam? You don't let them just go all over the place. Oh, the interview was a softball. Now, here's the worst thing. Even if that went to court, I don't think Trump would have won the Kamala Harris thing, all right? Because they would have said, ah, it's different interpretations. You can't prove there's malice, but here's how you can prove it. One name, Scott Pelley. Scott Pelley is, I think, the Senior Correspondent on 60 Minutes Now. All right? He hates Donald Trump. Remember his college graduate? He despises the man. And story after story, after all you got to do is parade Pelly in there. I mean, it was so outrageous. The last one he did, Mark Elias was a top attorney for Hillary Clinton who ginned up the Russian collusion, fraud and Peli Sainted him, canonized him on 60 Minutes and used him as a cudgel to hit Trump without even telling the audience who Elias was. Don't tell me that CBS is a responsible news agency. It is not. I worked there when it was responsible. So anyway, they got to pay Trump 16 million, probably more. UPenn Ivy League school. Philadelphia could be the most liberal college in the country. Possible. They have capitulated to Donald Trump, surrendered totally. The University of Pennsylvania will block transgender athletes from female sports and erase the records set by trans women, particularly swimmer Leah Thomas, who's a guy. But now she's not. Now she. But look at the neck on her. Ah. Anyway, UPenn has agreed to a number of action items. Their words, to resolve what department calls Title 9 violations. That's which they were sued by the Justice Department. So they've surrendered totally. Another victory for Trump. Okay. And he'll continue to win because these universities not going to get any money. Grant money, birthright citizenship. Update. Now, I have said that I do not believe Donald Trump's gonna win this. The Constitution is clear. If you are a baby born here in the United States, you are a citizen doesn't matter whether your parents are documented or not. The exception is if you are a baby born to an ambassador of foreign country to somebody is here on a temporary means as far as working is concerned and structured, they are still those people under the authority of their home government, like the United nations people. Okay, then they're notices. That's the only exception. So Donald Trump issued an executive order saying, no, like that we're not going to have any more right citizenship. And here's what the order said, quote his policy in the United States that no department or agency of the United States government shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship or accept documents issued by state, local or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United States citizenship to persons when that person's mother was unlawfully present in the United States and the person's father was not a US Citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of the person's birth, or when that person's mother presence in the United States was lawful but temporary and the person's father was not a US Citizen or lawful permanent resident at the time of said person's death, that means you can't sneak across to give birth. So that Trump issued an executive order. No more of that. But the Supreme Court paused it. Okay, so you may know the Supreme Court is on vacation. Hello. Have fun. They don't go back to October 6th, so I think that this pause will be extended into the fall. That's the logical way. They're not going to come back.

Your free trial to hear all of these arguments, which they'd have to hear the Supreme Court. So that's what I think will happen. That is your update. Department of justice announces Operation Gold Rush to fight health care fraud. This is big now. So it is estimated that every year in the United States, the U.S. treasury loses 300 billion billion to fraud. Now think about that. $300 billion people are stealing from the U.S. government, our tax money by perpetuating fraud on the health care system. So yesterday, the Fed's Department of Justice announced they broke up a $15 billion scam, okay? And wasn't yesterday, it was Monday. 300 arrests, including doctors, nurses, health care workers, pharmacists, all of that who allegedly game the government. Good work. Pam Bondi. Unicit had a Biden administration didn't care. Good work. Big protests, Fourth of July weekend, Free America, organized by the Women's March, far left. I think they're loons. I do. So they're organizing 150 protests including DC, New York, Wisconsin, Florida, Massachusetts. Okay? Behind this, Planned Parenthood, Emily's List, pro abortion pact, National Organization for Women, all of these far left groups, and they kicking money in there, telling everybody to show up at a person place. And it's a push for free America. So, ladies, let me just break it to you right here. I'm free. There's nobody suppressing me that I know of. If they do, I'm going to fight back in a very vociferous way. I'm free. I don't know. And my neighbors are free. All my employees are free. I got a lot of them. I'm running three corporations. I don't know who's not free. I'll put that not free person on this broadcast. If you can come up with one person who's not free in this country, simple man, simple request. Give me one regular person, not some murderer drug dealer, okay? In LA, they don't have any. July 4th, because these people out there are organized and they want to cause mayhem. And so the city wisely says, no, I can't do anything now. The Guard is still in LA. I had my researchers look at it. This is 4000 National Guard still based in Los Angeles. 800 marines are there. It's a big federal presence, okay? Because they know the Trump administration, Department of Justice, Homeland Security knows. Nobody going to stop these people from going out and burning stuff down. So that's why they have to have the federal presence nowhere else but Los Angeles. You ought to be very proud out there. Your city government can't Control your people. Let's go back to the Everglades. You've been in the Everglades? It's magnificent. Love it there. I got say I've been there 10 times. I took an airboat. Extended airboat ride. Now, you don't walk around the Everglades, okay? There are people who live there, they live on stilted homes. You know, there's giant snakes everywhere. There's gators, there's panthers, there's bears. Every snake in the world. Vacations in the Everglades, okay? It's just ridiculous. Giant pythons. Anyway, the President thought it'd be a good place to have a migrant detention center. We reported it yesterday. But I didn't get to everything I wanted to get to, which is why I'm doing it again. Now, all this detention center is, is a waypoint for the deportation. They put them there. Plane lands on a Runway. They got on a plane, they go to Venezuela, wherever they're going. Okay? So press, of course, thinks this is Third Reich stuff or whatever it may be, but here's the best sound bite. Go. Mr. President, 2018, you suggested putting alligators in the Rio Grande to prevent crossings in Texas. Is this a dream come true for you, sir? Well, I was thinking about that. I must say, it was meant more as a joke. But the more I thought of it, the more I liked it, if you want to know the truth. And they were serious. They were actually crocodile. They were crocodiles from Africa. They are a step beyond. But, no, that was really meant as a joke. But a lot of people liked it. And a lot of people think we should do it, frankly. Well, you can't do it because crocodiles can't go in fresh water. They have to go in salt water. But the President will say just about anything to get a rise. But on this one with the crocodiles in the Rio Grande river, there was one guy who said, yes, Elton John. Crocodile Rock. Elton gets a boost in sales. All I have to do is actually blare that song on the Rio Grande and a lot of people go back. Little humor here, I think, on the broadcast. All right, this isn't funny. South of the border, Mexico remains out of control. Getting worse over the weekend. Okay? 20 bodies are found in Sinaloa. 4 headless corpses hanging from a bridge. Of course. I mean, this is just a regular weekend, okay? 27 murders on one day. June 29th, Sunday, okay? Everybody's supposed to be in church. Mexico's Catholic country. 29 murders, one day in Sinaloa. That's one province okay. President of Mexico can't control it. Here was a statement from the Mexican government, though. Military and police forces are working together to re establish total peace in Sinaloa. Yeah, okay. How long has that been going on now? What, 20 years? You can't or won't stop the killing. The drug cartels control the country now. If President Sheinbaum would cooperate with President Trump and join forces, the two countries could wipe out the cartels. But Sheinbaum will not do it. Nor would her predecessor, Obra Dor, who I believe, and I could be wrong, was had a little arrangement with the cartels. Let's put it that way. Okay. Shy mom have that? I don't know. Not trying to save any lives so far in this year. First six months. Okay. 11,121 murders in Mexico. It's the most dangerous country in the world. 11,121. That doesn't count the thousands of people who just vanished. Okay, the crocodiles ate them or something, I don't know, but they're dead. Hey, Claudia, wise up. Smart life. So this is an interesting story. When Covid hit and people were off the streets, you weren't banned from going out. Okay, you just had to wear a mask or whatever. But very few people comparatively did go out. Most people, cliche alert, sheltered in place. Those who went out on the highways drove like 150 miles an hour because there was anybody on highways that has now carried over to post Covid. If you go on Along Island Expressway where I live, you got dangerous people going 100 miles an hour or more, weaving in and out of traffic. So much so that there is a public outcry here in New York about it. So Allstate has ranked the safest cities for driving and the unsafest cities. Let's go with the safe cities first. The safest place to drive an automobile, a vehicle in the USA is Brownsville, Texas. Isn't that a shocker on the border? Boise, Idaho. Fort Collins, Colorado. Cary, North Carolina. Laredo, Texas. Another border town. Olathe, Kansas. Scottsdale, Arizona. Port St. Lucie, Florida. Madison, Wisconsin. Eugene, Oregon. Interesting group. Here are the most dangerous Boston by far. Because Boston, you cannot drive into town. They don't have street signs. The town hasn't changed its grid since Samuel Adams and John Hancock. And narrow streets everywhere. And nobody knows where they're going. Don't drive there. D.C. second. I don't really know why. Baltimore, third. Worcester, Mass. Why Worcester, Mass. Would be fourth. I don't know. Springfield, Mass. I guess. They're not. They're just not enforcing the traffic laws in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Glendera, California. Suburb of la LA itself Oakland, Providence, Rhode Island. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. New York City is not on the list because people aren't crazy enough to drive in New York city anymore. Number one, it costs you like 50 bucks to do that. And number two, it's insane. You're just going to sit there. That's why it's not on the list. Now here's a Smart life tip. Most of us have to drive. We're going to encounter people who are insane on the road, you can't react. And to me, that's the hardest thing. I really want to whack them. I really do. Road rage. I don't. I don't know what you call it. You can't. You can't. What is dadication? The thing that drives me every day as a dad is Dariona. We call him Dae Date for short. Every day he's hungry for something, whether it's attention, affection, knowledge. And there's this huge responsibility in making sure that when he's no longer under my wing that he's a good person. I want him to be able to sit back one day and go, we work together. We did a good job. That's dedication. Find out more@fatherhood.gov brought to you by the U.S. department of Health and Human Services and the Ad Council. Hey, it's Sean Spicer from the Sean Spicer Show Podcast reminding you to tune into my show every day to get your daily dose inside the world of politics. President Trump and his team are shaking up Washington like never before, and we're here to cover it from all sides, especially on the topics the mainstream media won't. So if you're a political junkie on a late lunch or getting ready for the drive home, new episodes of the Sean Spicer show podcast drop at 2pm East coast every day. Make sure you tune in. You can find us at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcast. So somebody tailgating you, you pull over, let the idiot go by. Somebody weaving in and out, I try to get the plate number, okay? And if I see a cop or something, I give them the cop. But that never. What they should have is drones photographing these cars. And they will. They'll have to. And get these people charged with felonies, reckless endangerment. That's what I charge them with here in New York. They are impounding the cars now. Good, smart life. Okay, Donald Trump. In addition to putting migrants in the Everglades bombing the Iranians and basically telling California to go blank yourself. Has a new fragrance out. It's true. 249 bucks gets you 3.3 ounces of Victory 4547 fragrance. Here is how it is described. It's for men with rich, masculine notes and women, a perfume with sophisticated, subtly feminine scent. Okay, so Trump selling the cologne and perfume. Now, this is a venture by cic, which is a corporation owned by Donald Trump. I think he had to put this someplace when he was reelected president. His kids control the Trump Organization. They're probably controlling this. But anyway, I don't usually do these kinds of touts, but you can get the fragrance on the Internet. It's 250 bucks for three ounces. So I don't think cocaine is that expensive. But I don't know. I'm not in that world. If you do buy this, please let me know. Bill@billoriley.com Billoriley.com Write me an email, tell me why you bought it and how it's going to. Is the dog howling? You know, are you happy with your rich, masculine fragrance? I, you know, I think Chester A. Arthur put out a cologne, but I'm not sure. He was a bit of a dandy. President Arthur was, but I have to check that Trump cologne. Stay in history. July 2, 1964. President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Bill into law. Very necessary. Here's what Johnson said. Go. Americans of every race and color have died in battle to protect our freedom. Americans of every race and color have worked to build a nation of widening opportunities. Now, our generation of Americans has been called on to continue the unending search for justice within our own borders. Okay, what did the Voting Rights act do 61 years ago? First, it outlawed discrimination in voting, race, or color. And this is a federal law that trumped all state laws and local laws. It prohibited discrimination in places of public accommodation, hotels, restaurants, theaters. It authorized the federal government to enforce desegregation of public facilities so the feds could move in and arrest you if you were blocking anyone. Encourages the desegregation of public schools and authorizes federal government to assist in the process. And finally, prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national. Oregon. All very worthy. Now, Lyndon Johnson was a terrible president and an even worse human being. I really come down on him hard in confronting the president, which is still selling pretty bristly nine months after its release. But this was good. What Johnson did here was good. Kennedy was the first one JFK to get this rolling and then when he was assassinated, Johnson took it over. So it was passed July 2, 1964. And Johnson was a bad president because of Vietnam, because he was a dishonest man fundamentally. And we document it all in confronting presidents, if you care about the guy. Final thought in a moment. So here's the final thought of the day. We'll be off tomorrow to give my crew an extended holiday for the fourth Independence Day. Now, we have to do this in the summer because I have a very good staff, but there aren't all that many of them. So we put out more information on the no Spin news than any other cable news broadcast on the air in the hourly format. We do 42 minutes. Okay. And then the rest of commercials and all that. We have more information coming at you than anybody else. You want to challenge that? I'm more than willing to listen to you, but it's not even close amount of information you get from this broadcast. So my crew is tired. Now, when I worked at the O'Reilly Factor at Fox, I had twice as many people than I have now. But my people are elite. They're trained here. Fox trained those people. I train these people. But they're tired. I have to give them time off. And these are holiday weekends in August. Well, I don't want to take big blocks of time. It's just too much news going on. We pick off a day here, pick off a day there. So that's why we're going to be off tomorrow. But I'm going to have a Sunday column. I'm going to have the message of the day. I'm going to be checking in. If anything happens, you get the tweet. Tweets. Remember, get on a tweet band at Bill O'Reilly. That's important for you because boom, boom, boom. And tonight we're going to do three Americans on News Nation. So Cuomo, Stephen A. Smith and me. And I think Carville is going to sneak in there. I got something for Carville tonight. Oh, do I have something for him? So That's News Nation 8 Eastern Time. I don't mind doing all this work, but I need a little time off, too. But I'm looking out for my staff here. That's why we're doing this. All right. So we will be back on Monday. We appreciate you watching and listening to the no Spin News tonight. I'm Bill O'Reilly. Have a great Independence Day celebration. Proud to be an American.
Summary of "Evaluating President Trump’s First 6 Months, Paramount to Pay Trump $16 Million, UPenn Bans Transgender Athletes & What’s Next for Birthright Citizenship?"
Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis
Host: Bill O'Reilly
Release Date: July 3, 2025
In this episode of No Spin News and Analysis, Bill O’Reilly provides a comprehensive evaluation of President Donald Trump’s first six months in office. He also delves into significant legal settlements involving Trump, UPenn’s policy changes regarding transgender athletes, and ongoing debates surrounding birthright citizenship.
O’Reilly begins by assessing the accomplishments and challenges of President Trump’s initial half-year in office.
Border Security:
O’Reilly highlights Trump's decisive action in sealing the U.S. border, contrasting it with the previous administration’s approach. He notes, “Trump sealed the border in first two months... about 210,000 people have been deported, undocumented people, and there are currently 60,000 being detained” (00:00).
Dealing with Iran:
The administration's strategy against Iran is portrayed as a success, reducing Iran's threat level significantly. O’Reilly states, “Trump bombed Iran successfully into marginalization country is not nearly the threat that it was a month ago” (00:xx).
Economic Stability:
Despite similar stock market levels to the Biden administration, O’Reilly attributes economic steadiness to Trump’s policies: “The economy goes the way you go. You spend, the economy is good” (00:xx).
Media Confrontations:
A notable victory discussed is the settlement with CBS for $16 million, which O’Reilly views as a triumph over biased media portrayal. He remarks, “CBS settled with Trump for 16 million. That’ll go to his library and legal fares” (00:xx).
O’Reilly delves deeper into the legal settlement between CBS and Trump.
Details of the Settlement:
He explains that CBS, under pressure from internal bias favoring Kamala Harris, agreed to the $16 million settlement. O’Reilly criticizes CBS's media practices, stating, “The whole news organization was behind Kamala” (10:14).
Implications for Media Accountability:
O’Reilly views the settlement as a necessary check on media organizations, asserting, “I worked there when it was responsible. So anyway, they got to pay Trump 16 million, probably more” (10:14).
The episode discusses the University of Pennsylvania’s (UPenn) controversial decision to ban transgender athletes from female sports categories.
Policy Changes:
O’Reilly criticizes UPenn, labeling it a capitulation to conservative pressures: “The University of Pennsylvania will block transgender athletes from female sports and erase the records set by trans women” (10:14).
Legal and Social Ramifications:
He mentions that UPenn has agreed to several action items to resolve Title IX violations, viewing this as a victory for Trump’s administration in promoting traditional gender categories in sports (10:14).
O’Reilly explores the ongoing debates surrounding birthright citizenship in the United States.
