There's a big controversy over this Ukraine thing. Some conservatives like Mark Levin are angry with President Trump because he seems to be siding with Putin. But it's not that clear cut, as I reported yesterday. I mean, there's a method to President Trump's madness in all things. When I use the word madness, that's a cliche method for his madness. But this could go either way. And there's no doubt right now that Trump is leaning into the Putin area. I think it's because he wants Putin to stop, but we'll have to see what the deal is before we could really make a judgment. But the technique of trying to flatter someone to be reasonable, that's not crazy. That's been going on since Genghis Khan. Okay, just keep that in mind. Talking Points memo today is about Donald Trump's first month in office. So one down, 47 more months to go. Liberal America. Be happy to hear that. Right. I have to tell you that Donald Trump has done more in his first month, second term, of course, than any other president in history. I went back last night confronting the President's, as you know, 23 consecutive weeks on the New York Times list. And now it'll extend into March. We got the numbers yesterday. This is phenomenal. If you haven't read Confronting the President, you might want to consider it. But anyway, Trump has done more in 31 days than anybody else who was elected president. Who do you think was second? George Washington, first president because he had to reorganize the government. I mean, they had a structure in Philadelphia, but they Weren't a federal government. That only happened after we booted the king out of here. And then Washington moved to New York City, where he governed the country. And he was pretty busy putting everything together. In fact, today is an anniversary. I don't know how many years, but of the first post office. Federal Post Office in Washington instituted it, but Trump did more in 31 days than George Washington did. Now, Washington had an excuse. He had to get furniture. Martha was giving him a hard time. She didn't want to move to New York. He had to get curtains. You know, I mean, it was really nothing going on structurally. But it is quite amazing what Donald Trump has done. So let's run it down. And I'm doing this because if Kamala Harris had been elected, none of these things that I'm going to mention, there are 10 of them, would have happened. None of them. So just keep that in mind. First one is the Gaza hostage release. 24 hostages have been released. Okay? It's estimated there are 35 remaining in Hamas hands. Now, the Biden people had a little bit to do with that, but not a lot. It was the Trump people who made it happen. I know that because I was involved to some extent. I have not reported that involvement. I will write about it, but the time isn't right now to do so. But I was directly involved with this, okay? And I know what happened. Okay? So 24 hostages are out, and that is a very significant achievement because Biden couldn't get any out. He couldn't get any. They just ignored him. The terrorists, number two, the Department of Government Efficiency Doge. It's creating chaos. Elon Musk brought in, all right, and his job is to assess wasteful spending and fraud and to cut down a federal workforce which is far too big because we have a $36 trillion debt. So that never would happen over Kamala Harris, ever. The Democrats don't want to cut spending. They're the party of spending, okay? Now, I don't know whether, in the end Musk will be successful. He's uncovered some stuff, and that's good, but now it kicks back to Congress and they're trying to claw back money. I don't know they're going to be successful there. Most of that money's already been spent. But it's a worthy effort, is it not? If you're a loyal American, I don't care what party you're in. You don't want wasteful spending that insults the taxpayers. Number three, the Ukraine negotiations. Again, Biden couldn't. Couldn't do it. He couldn't get anywhere. And in the space of 31 days, Trump's got Putin at the table. Last week in Saudi Arabia wasn't Putin, but it was Putin's Guy Lavrov. Okay, that's three. Kamala Harris in a million years would not have been able to do that. Number four, DEI banishment. Democrats didn't want to banish it. It's out K got from the federal area. And it's a skin color play and a gender play. That's against the constitution. Number five, gas and oil regulations. Trump has signed five executive orders. Now, we haven't seen any benefit from that yet, but it's a little bit too early. I figure about May, because summer gas prices usually surge because everybody zipping around on vacation. If it's a surge this year, then those EOs would have failed, but we got to give it to them to see if that's going to lower prices. And again, Biden could have done five executive orders to make it easier for fossil fuels to be harvested and transported. He didn't do it. Six, border security. In the first half of this month, the one month for Trump migrant encounters, which means border patrol getting face to face physically with somebody trying to get across the border dropped 93% because Trump took put troops on the border. He stopped all the asylum madness. And Biden opened the border completely. Didn't want any restraints at all. None. Okay, that's six. Number seven, deportation of criminal migrants. Now, this has halted. Okay, very interesting. Got off to a robust start. 5,700 illegal immigrants have been deported. That's according to the Department of Homeland Security. But in the last 10 days, almost ground to a halt. And I don't know why we're watching it. We'll have a report next week on it. But the deportation is more difficult, I believe, than the Trump administration thought it would be. Number eight, Mexican troops at the border. This is another thing. Kamala Harris, in a million years, she wouldn't have deported anybody either. But in a million years, would have not cajoled the president of Mexico, put those troops on the border, and she did it with Trump like that. And that'll help. That's gonna help. Number nine, Trump has signed 68 executive orders. Biden signed 32 in his first month. And Trump wants to blow up what he calls the corrupt federal system. That's what this is all about. And the last one is Trump administration suing sanctuary cities. First two are Chicago and New York, Illinois and New York State. Okay. And the Justice Department is filing suit saying, hey, you're disobeying federal law. We're going to take you to court and there could be fines, there could be all kinds of stuff. And again, that would never have happened had Kamala Harris been president. So whether you despise Trump or you love him or whatever, you got to give him some credit for instituting his vision, okay? Of which he got elected. Told the folks, this is what I want to do. They voted for him and now he's doing it. 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.

Check responses for accuracy. But the press. And that's the memo. Okay, let's just get that out of the way, all right? But the press opposes everything he does. Everything. Because he's evil. That's the new strategy we told you about earlier this week. Trump is evil, right? So is Musk evil, guys. So what the corporate media does is they cherry pick. So under the Trump administration, thousands, probably tens of thousands of federal employees are going to be laid off because the government's too big in court, in Trump's estimation. So tens of thousands of people are going to lose their job. So the media will pluck one of them like in the Veterans Administration. Or then they'll say there's not enough air traffic controllers because Trump's firing them, which is false, a lie. And then they'll say, oh, you can't fire anybody in this area or that area. And then they'll have a sob story, I lost my job. And look, just because you're a federal employee doesn't guarantee your job. It doesn't. And if there are too many federal employees, then there has to be a cutback on it. It's like a regular company. But the media, they cherry pick it to make Trump look evil. And a lot of people buy it. I get mail all the time, oh, look at these poor people. And we're not the veterans aren't going to get what they deserve. And the air traffic controls, I'm afraid to fly. And you know, all of that hysteria, it's easy for the media to do that. Simple. And so they want to undermine everything. And I mean 100%. I haven't heard one thing that Trump has done, be praised by the New York Times or CNN or msnbc. Not one. And maybe I missed it. And if you heard it, please bill it billow reilly.com because we want to be fair. Tell me they crazy for anything. Let me know. Measles. So there's a big outbreak in West Texas and this is pretty vicious. Gaines County, 48 total cases. Kids 5 to 17 getting a measle, it could kill you and scar you for life. 8% of kindergarten kids in Gaines county had vaccine exemptions. You can get a vaccine exemption, all right. And if you do, then you're more likely to get measles. Enter RFK Jr. Who's already in as a Health and Human Services secretary. And he's an anti vax guy. Don't expect him to do that while he's in office. I don't. There'll be so much outrage if he does. I think he's going to just put that in the bottom drawer. But one thing he has to do, because he promised to do it and it's the only reason he was there, is regulate the food in America. Now, you've heard some people say, oh, I don't want the food police. You need the food police because if you don't have them, you're going to die a painful death much earlier than you would have if the food police were out and about. So joining us out of New York City is a dietician and nutritionist named Scott Keatley who follows this very closely. So I've been on a jihad to alert Americans about sugar, the deleterious effects and other junk food which leads to obesity and diabetes and all kinds of disease. And the stats are unbelievable. I just threw them here, but let me pick them up. So in the United States in 2000, 25 years ago, 30% of adults were obese. Now it's 40%, 10% rise. And that's all bad diet, right?
J.D. Vance
Absolutely. That's coming from consuming too many calories, not expending enough. We're eating way more junk food than we ever had.
Scott Keatley
Why? Why are we reading? Why? Everybody knows junk food is bad for you. Why are we eating more?
J.D. Vance
Why, Bill, it's. It's delicious. I mean, it absolutely is. These. These companies have been working for 50 or 60 years on formulations of stuff. And it looks good when you. When you see these interesting colors, you want to eat it. It tastes good. It's got to think kids.
Scott Keatley
Kids would fall for that. But adults, I mean, they know that they're. Look, cigarette smoking is a narcotic. It makes you calm down. But the government has succeeded in knocking out most cigarette smoking in this country by scaring people. That's what they did. Right. And it worked.
J.D. Vance
They definitely scared people. But what we did is, is we replaced cigarettes with something else. If you look at all the scare tactics around cigarettes, at the same time, you've got the rise of orange mocha frappuccinos from Starbucks. So we replaced a lot of those cigarettes with food.
Scott Keatley
That's a good point. But still, Americans aren't that cognizant of what they're doing, in my opinion. And then they go to the doctor and they get the blood test, and they're type 2 diabetic already, and they're 40, 50 pounds overweight, and they're absolutely not.
J.D. Vance
They're not paying attention to what they're putting in their body, because you have to do it every day, three or four times a day.
Scott Keatley
And I'm not a cook. See, I don't cook. So I gotta figure out what I'm gonna eat. And 90% of my options are bad.
J.D. Vance
Yes.
Scott Keatley
I mean, unless I want just broccoli. And you can't put any butter on it or legumes, you know? But if I want a steak, that's bad. If I want pasta, that's bad. So I think people give up because they're just.
J.D. Vance
If you go out there onto the Internet, and you spoke about this earlier, if you go out there onto the Internet, you will find every level of crazy and everything in between. And so you'll find people who are saying, steak's the worst thing for you and butter's the worst thing for you. And then people on the other side will say, well, don't eat any fruit because that's bad for you. And it becomes maddening out there.
Scott Keatley
But let me stop you.
J.D. Vance
Listed for you.
Scott Keatley
Let me stop you. What is the truth about fruit? So I like a glass of orange juice in the morning or grapefruit juice. I thought it was healthy, and now it's not. Because it's got sugar in it, right?
J.D. Vance
So there's going to be sugar in stuff, but it's. It's the natural sugar versus the added sugar.
Scott Keatley
So what's the difference? What's the difference?
J.D. Vance
So molecularly there's no difference, but it's what you're expecting. So if you're drinking orange juice and it's, you know, great orange juice from, from South Florida, that, that's, you know, nothing in it other than just juice. It's. It's got a certain amount of sugar in it. But if you get the cheaper stuff, it's going to have an extra 5 or 10 grams of sugar. But you don't even really perceive that. You just know.
Scott Keatley
I look at the label, though. I look at every label of what I put into my body. Look, you'd be surprised at how old I am. I got the same waist size I had in college. But it ain't easy, okay? It is not easy because there's a craving for dessert. I eat a couple of desserts a week, all right? I'm not a Spartan, but when I'm drinking my orange juice, I'm going, I think this is okay, but I'm not sure. So what I want, and I'm probably wrong on this, is the government to take a more proactive approach and almost put warning labels on the soft drinks that have 80 grams of sugar in them. I want warning labels just like on the cigarette packs. Is that food police craziness?
J.D. Vance
That is. That is not food police craziness. I think that we really need to define ultra processed foods and put those labels right on the front for people.
Scott Keatley
Why haven't they done it then? With obesity at 40%4.0 for American adults? Come on. Why haven't the government done.
J.D. Vance
You got to follow the money. There's very, very powerful people and very powerful companies out there that put a lot of money into the pockets of people that represent us. And this is not just a Republican issue or a Democrat issue. This is an everybody issue because food is so prevalent and we've got to have people that are making decisions who say, I don't want your money. I'm going to make decisions based on stuff that's good for the American people.
Scott Keatley
All right? And there's one thing else, a lot of people I'm generalizing here who are grossly overweight, obese, are poor. No, I'm a lot of money. And the fast food stuff is cheap. Does that play into it?
J.D. Vance
So socioeconomic status definitely plays into it. If you don't have a whole lot of. If you don't have a whole lot of money, you probably don't have a whole lot of time. And I know that goes against what some people think. People think people are just sitting around doing nothing. But you're probably working a job or two jobs that are, are not the greatest in the world. And so you can sit there and I can sit there and we can look at these labels, but other people don't necessarily have that time. And when you get home late at night, you gotta put something on the table.
Scott Keatley
Your kids need to eat, it's convenient, you're tired. I can drive through the window, they throw the bag at me and it's garbage. All right, I hope RFK Jr. That's the, you know, if he makes it a campaign and really wages this an aggressive way, it'll save a lot of lives. And we appreciate your time very much tonight, Scott. Thank you. Okay. And I do that segment because I, we want you guys to be healthy. You know, I've seen it. I know what it. I know what diabetes is. I don't have it, thank God. But it is in my DNA and I gotta tamp it down like crazy because a lot of it's heredity and I'm not out in, you know, riding horseback for five hours a day and doing all that stuff. I'm sitting on my butt talking to you guys.

Want, I just, I want everybody to be as healthy as they can be. Joining us now is a man who I do business with and I recently did a major interview with him. Him for the Oxford Club, Alexander Green. He's living large in the Bahamas, celebrating his anniversary. And you know when you're a capitalist and you do well, you can go to the Bahamas and. Right. And pay all that hotel tariff out there. But anyway, I think I've set you up in a way that that's fair and I want people to be very, very cautious. I'm a conservative investor. As you know. I've known Alex Now I early 90s, so 30 years almost. So look, first question. The stock market was pretty good under Biden. Why?
Alexander Green
Well, let's be clear. The last two years of the stock market, 2023, 2024 were good under Biden. Let's go a little further back. 2022, when Bidenomics had a chance to kick in. Remember, he's elected in 2020. He starts implementing his plans for 2022-21. By 2022, we have the highest inflation in more than 40 years. We have interest rates that have soared. And the stock market, the s and P500, declined 19% in 2022. The Nasdaq lost a third of its value. The bond market, with interest rates soaring, had its worst year in over 100 years. And even a conservative diversified portfolio, 60% stocks, 40% bonds, had its worst year since 1940, pre World War II. So Biden caused a lot of damage with his regulations which shackled the oil and gas industry and businesses everywhere. His massive multi trillion dollar deficit spending, which he was warned even by liberal economists like Larry Summers, you're going to stoke the highest inflation we've seen since the 1980s. And that's exactly what we saw. But business is resilient, business is adaptable. And by the 2023, 2024, sales were up, profits were up, and the stock market was up again. But it wasn't due to Joe Biden. It was a recovery from Biden nomics which even the Biden administration had to stop using because it had such a negative connotation.
Scott Keatley
Right? And then one of the big things was it started to drill oil again and the oil harvesting got ramped up. And this is from Mr. Global Warming. Now, Trump has been in office 31 days. The Dow is up 1.2%, 531 points. NASDAQ up 285, 1.4%. But every day when I check, it's up, it's down, it's in, it's out. I mean, this isn't. Anything could happen. And that worries me as an investor. How do I get over that worry?
Alexander Green
Well, you begin to get over it by recognizing that volatility is the norm. I mean, stock markets, if you could get the kind of superior returns that equities deliver with the smooth upward climb of a passbook savings account, everybody would have all their money's in equity. Volatility is really just the price of admission when you own stocks. But let me also say, Bill, remember the market started to take off before Trump took office. When the election results came in and they saw that, that the Kamala Harris was not going to be the, the victor and Donald Trump was going to be the new president, stocks took off immediately. Why did they take off? Because not only was it not the end of democracy, as we were told in some quarters, but people know that Trump is a businessman and he knows that wealth is created in the private sector, not in the public sector. That's. The private sector is where innovation happened. It's where productivity happens. And administration has policies that can either provide a headwind, which makes it tougher for businesses to grow and investors to get ahead, or a tailwind, which makes it easier for businesses to prosper and for investors as well. And what Trump wants to do, by cutting both the corporate individual tax rates, putting money in consumers pockets and giving companies more money to spend on research and development and new factories and new distribution channels and hire more employees and pay higher wages and better benefits, those are all positive for the economy. His policy of killing 10 regulations for every new one created hugely positive. I remember a bank president saying one time that he was hiring more compliance officers than he was loan officers. Why? Because the government set so many regulations. The bank was scared to death it wasn't going to comply with all these regulations. And what does it do? It raises interest rates, it cuts into profits, it hurts stock market returns. So, so cutting interest rates, or excuse me, cutting tax rates, deregulating, unshackling the domestic oil and gas industry, cutting the waste, fraud and abuse, these are all positive things for the economy. And that means it's positive for the stock market. Because if consumers are spending, if they're confident they're spending, and if they're spending, it's adding to corporate sales and ultimately corporate earnings. So I think that we're going to see a wonderful economy and stock market over the next four years.
Scott Keatley
Okay. But remember now that most Americans don't have a lot of reserve curve. So if they want to get into the market, some of them are borrowing money to get into it, which is what we saw in 1929. So I understand that on paper it looks like the Trump years might be very good for investors, but it's not a lock. Now one of the things that you do is look ahead in your newsletter, Alex, and AI is coming in huge. So what in general, and I don't want you to recommend any stocks. If you're interested in what Alex Green is doing, then you go to Oxford club. Was it oxfordclub.com right?
Alexander Green
Oxfordclub.com? yes.
Scott Keatley
Okay. You go there and then you can get what they have. But generally speaking, AI and the forward looking stocks is what you're analyzing now, correct? Yes.
Alexander Green
Yeah. AI is a very big deal because it's going to increase productivity. I'm on AI every day. And before long, every student is going to have an AI tutor, every businessman is going to have or business person is going to have an AI consultant, every physician is going to have an AI researcher and assistant. Everybody's going to have an infinitely smart, infinitely available, infinitely cheap source of not just news and information, but strategy and questions asked and problems solved. And this is going to be huge for the economy. That's why you're seeing all these big tech companies ramp up their AI spending because they know the demand is huge. And in my view, five years from now there'll be companies that have making full use of artificial intelligence and companies that don't exist anymore because it's just that imperative. As big as the Internet was in 1999 and 2000, AI is even bigger right now. And we're in the early stages, we're still top of the first beginning.
Scott Keatley
And you're trying to ferret out the companies with the most potential. But again, it's not that easy to do. I don't do crypto stuff and I'm not even going to talk about it. I just. Way too risky for me, that's a whole different thing. Yeah, I don't. You don't do a lot of crypto stuff. When I read your stuff. Not a crypto in there.
Alexander Green
Right. It's for gamblers, not investors.
Scott Keatley
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. So bottom on this is that you believe there's opportunity in A Trump administration because it's a concentration of free market rather than government regulation. And when you recommend a stock that doesn't perform well, you tell everybody, but it's too late because we've lost the money. How do you feel about that?
Alexander Green
Well, first of all, you're absolutely right, Bill. If you're going to invest in stocks, you're going to have winners and you're going to have losers.
Scott Keatley
Right?
Alexander Green
Ted Williams is the greatest hitter of all times. 60% of the time, he didn't get a hit. Still, he still was the greatest. Every investor, Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, John Templeton, all the greats, they had losing positions. And so you go into it with the idea that you're buying a business, and if that business grows in profitability, the share price is going to rise and you're going to share in that profitability.
J.D. Vance
And.
Alexander Green
And if the business stumbles or runs into competition that it can't meet effectively, it's going to work out poorly. We use, as you know, Bill, trailing.
Scott Keatley
Stops, as long as something stops on the stock. So if it goes a certain level, it automatically sells. All right. Alexander green, Oxford Club, oxfordclub.com Appreciate it, Alex. Have fun in Bahamas.
Alexander Green
Always happy to be here. Thanks, Bill.
Scott Keatley
Okay. All right. J.D. vance is in Germany causing trouble. So the vice president goes over. Munich, beautiful town, by the way, if you have to go to Germany and it's a nice country, Munich is the best city, Bavaria. And he goes over and he scolds not only the Germans, but all of Europe. This is the vice president. He scolds them. So you're not putting enough money into the collective defense. The United States is not going to continue spending all of this money to defend you. You got to put more money in, okay? And when conservative Europeans try to get certain things done, you shut them down, you don't let them talk, and you're violating their freedom of speech. This is Vance, okay. And he's carrying out what. Excuse me, Trump wants. Got it. Vance. Munich. Got to put. Europe's got to put more money and collect the defense. It's got to lighten up on dissenting thought. If they're conservative groups, they deserve to be heard. Vance, enter Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Used to be little Marco, now he's big Marco. He goes on the CBS program morning program, Sunday morning program Face the Nation with liberal journalist Margaret Brennan. And this becomes a major controversy. Go. Well, he was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide, and he met with the head of A political party that has far right views and some historic ties to extreme groups. The context of that was changing the tone of it. And you know that. That the censorship disagree with you specifically about the right. No, I have to disagree with you. Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide. The genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocidal because they hated Jews and they hated minorities and they hated those that they had a list of people they hated, but primarily the Jews. There was no free speech in Nazi Germany. Absolutely true. Historical fact, just like I was telling you about FDR and jfk. Now, Margaret Brennan is a very well educated person. University of Virginia and she got a Fulbright. She was studying in Jordan. She's got a good resume, you know. Been a while in Washington. Chief foreign affairs correspondent for CBS News. But Margaret Brennan does not know much about the Third Reich. She doesn't. You couldn't make that statement if she did. Free speech had nothing to do with the Holocaust. Hitler wiped out free speech in 1934 by first the Brown Shirts, the SA, and then when he got to be Chancellor, the SS and the Gestapo, all dissent was punished. In Germany, there wasn't any debate about the Holocaust, no free speech about it. In fact, Hitler didn't even articulate the Holocaust ever.

When you sign up for our newsletter@billorilly.com, it's free. You'll get emails letting you know what is going on and you won't miss a thing. All right. Until the final Solution. He wasn't even at the meeting because he knew that was a war crime. So Margaret Brennan doesn't know, and she's one of CBS News maintenance anchors. And this is my point. I've been in the business now 50 years. The younger people, they don't know. And when you listen to them, they have, Most of them, 80% of them have no blanket idea what they're talking about, particularly when it gets to history and what happened in the past. They don't know, and it's dangerous. And then executives running these corporations, they're exceedingly dumb. They're stupid people. So they don't know. And that's how you have the collapse of journalism in this country. They just don't know. And they don't care to know. By the way, you think Margaret Brennan is read Killing the SS or Killing Patton. Those are the two books that deal with Nazi Germany or. No, she hasn't read them and she will read them because she's not interested. But whoever told Ms. Brennan to say that? Because I don't think she said it on her own, I think the thing was written for her. It's a catastrophe. All right, Canadian. So I'm watching the hockey tournament with Finland, Sweden, Canada and usa. And Saturday night, the USA team plays the Canadiens in Montreal. Roll it. Okay, now, what did you expect? If I were a Canadian, I would have booed, too. Yeah, you don't like Trump saying he's going to be 51st state. He's going to evaporate the country. Of course they're going to boo. If Trudeau said, hey, I don't want the United States to exist any longer, then they played old Canada, everybody. I'd boo. You'd boo? Everybody boo. So the press goes, oh, what do you expect to happen now? The Americans won 3 to 1, and they play Sweden tonight, and then they play for their championship on Thursday. And America's got the best team, but that doesn't mean they're going to win. But that's what happened. Smart life. So we reported that the Surgeon General says that if you're a boozer, a regular drinker, you have a much higher rate to get cancer. Esophagus, colon, larynx, liver, throat. Okay. And breast cancer as well for you ladies. So if you're drinking on a regular basis. 100,000 cancer cases directly linked to booze. 20,000 deaths every year. This is Surgeon General. I believe it. I absolutely believe it. Okay, so they took a poll. USA Today says, based on this, are you going to cut back on your drinking, 86% say no. Nope. 13% say yeah, we're going to cut back a little. And that's because booze, if you're a regular drinker, you're thinking about it and you want it. Now, that doesn't mean you're an alcoholic. Okay. But it means that it's an important part of your life, right? My right. And yeah, I'm going to keep doing it. Now, I predict pot's going to emerge as worse. Pot is more addictive than alcohol. Everybody doesn't think that. But it is so powerful, you putting that right in your brain. Okay. What do you see in 10 years? The massive social problems and physical problems. We have the pope hospitalized, pretty serious respiratory problems, 88 years old. Now, I wrote a column called the Pope versus The Founding Fathers and it's gotten a lot of play on billorilly.com it's about migration. I hope Francis sees it and what the Constitution of the United States says. And they're not compatible. So we wish the pope the best. I think he's a good man. I want you to read the column. Okay? You'll believe me, you won't be boring. Then let me know what you think because bill@billorilly.com bill@billoriley.com all right, final thought of the day. So here we go. We are going to launch a tour. We might come to your town. Who's we, O'Reilly. Who's we? Put it up there. Stephen A. Smith, Chris Cuomo, O'Reilly, your humble correspondent. The three Americans tour open it in Westbury, Long Island, March 30, Sunday. This is going to be big. As President Trump might say, it's going to be huge. And if you don't know what this is about, I got a couple of clips. Roll it for. Yeah. For Stephen A. I don't want to be surrounded by smarter people. That's why I do the Cuomo show. All right. If I wanted to be surrounded by smarter people, I wouldn't be sitting here tonight. President, company, Stephen A. Excluded good smart move. That's insulting to the audience. You see. Well, you ask somebody a question in your personal life, hey, Mabel, right. What kind of car is that? And they go, I, I like pancakes. What? No, I asked you what kind of car that. That's fair. All right. So we're gonna kick it around. It's gonna be a two hour show. Tickets are gonna sell out. So if you want them, 8 o'clock, Ticket Master. But the easiest way to go to billorilly.com we have a little thing, you just push it and you go right over to the box office. It's gonna be a two hour show. We're gonna do four topics of the day. I don't know what they're going to be because it's whatever everybody's talking about. Then we're going to take Q and A from the audience. So it's like the Miller show in that way. But never before have you had these three diverse audiences. So Stephen A. Smith, Chris Cuomo, Bill O'Reilly. Never been done. You can imagine how this might play out. It's going to be a blast. So we hope that you check out the Three Americans tour again. Eight o'clock on Wednesday. Today go on sale. Get them. Because it's not going to. You're going to go and then we're going to have other dates. Maybe we'll invade your town. But this is worth flying into New York to see this. If you're around and you want to come on in, you will not be disappointed. All right. So how about that for an announcement? Is that good? Right? I think that's pretty strong announcement. Let me know what you think. Thank you for watching the no Spin news tonight. We'll see you on Monday.
