Check response for accuracy. Elon Musk like him? No. I don't know. I met him once. Hollywood party. He's not the most gregarious guy in the room, but either am I. We just said hello, I can't give you any more than that genius, you know, wealthiest man in the world, all of that. But that doesn't mean he's a good public servant. Doesn't mean he's a good person. I don't know. So because I don't know, I am very cautious about analyzing Doge D O G E you know, Doge was the leader of Venice. Did you know that? I bet you didn't. But anyway, I can't really get a handle on this and so I'm very passive. I don't know whether Musk has control over it or not. And we'll get into it a little bit today. But I'm not going to be out there praising or criticizing unless I know. Now that separates me from 95% of the pundits who just throw this stuff out there and they have no blanket idea what they're talking about. We don't do that here. Which is why you're here. All right? I'm not wasting your time on stuff like that. If I don't know, I'll tell you. And I don't know. What I do know is that government has to stop wildly spending our tax money has to. And that's going to be layoffs going to mean responsible spending. It's going to be programs. Cut all of that. And then I knew this as well. Democrats will oppose all of it. That's what they do. They don't have any solutions other than fair share, raise taxes, that's it. They got no spending plan at all other than just give money away. All right, Talking points memo this evening is cynicism on Ukraine. So I have explained to you in vivid detail why President Trump is doing what he's doing. Regarding bad Vlad Putin column on Sunday. Discombobulating is the name of the column. If you haven't read it, don't have to be a member, just go to billorily.com you can read it. Message of the day. Yesterday's tooken it step further. So if you want to know why President Trump isn't hammering Putin, isn't disparaging him at the UN or anywhere else, you read that stuff. Because there is no other option. That's what it comes down to. This is a simple story. Putin has to stop. You cannot make him stop. Ukraine's not going to defeat Russia on the battlefield and NATO and the United States not going to get involved with World War Three. So you can't make Putin stop. He's got 10% of Ukraine occupied by Russian troops at a tremendous cost. But Putin doesn't care about that. He doesn't care if his people are dying, if they're cold, if they don't have enough to eat. He doesn't care. That's why he's on the COVID of confronting evil. I'll get to that later. So the only way to deal with Putin is to get him to the negotiating table. Doesn't have to be a regular table, but on the phone and say, look, Vlad, we're not going to make you look bad, but we have to stop this and will allow you to save some face. And that's what's going to happen. I predicted this before Trump was elected. Now the other side is nothing. Nothing. Okay? The UN doesn't have anything. Democratic Party doesn't have anything. Nothing. This rhetoric, empty, stupid rhetoric. And the press is worse. Just to show you how out of control this Ukraine thing is, in addition to all the casualties, 7 million Ukrainians have left that country. I mean, it is devastating. And the United states has spent 128 billion taxpayer dollars, according to a report by U.S. news and World, which I believe is accurate, probably more than that. Second UK 29 billion. Germany 27 billion. France 8 billion. So France has not been kicking up, even though Macron was here yesterday talking up Trump. France doesn't kick in much. So you can see 128 billion for us. Everybody else is way down the list. So we continue that. If Kamala were elected, we would. Because she could never get Putin to pay attention. Putin didn't even talk to Biden for two years. Wouldn't even take Biden's calls. Not that Biden would had anything to say to him. He didn't okay with that as fact. What I've told you is fact. No opinion. Here's the opinion I gave on News Nation last night. Go and look. I know what I'm talking about, Leland. I know exactly what Trump is aiming for. He would like to be nominated for the Nobel Peace Pride. That may or may not happen. That's not the most honest organization over in Norway. But he wants to get this thing settled. But I go back to my original point. Under the Democratic Party, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, you had no chance to stop this war. None. And yet I see these people parade out Schumer and all these other people going, oh, no, no. Well, what do you got, pal? You don't have anything. Okay? And that really bothers me. All right, here is Schumer on Ukraine go. Today, on this third anniversary of Putin's war, Donald Trump is turning his back on the values that America stands for, of democracy, of security and of liberty. Instead of standing up to Putin, Donald Trump is siding with him and against our own allies. Stand up how? How? You want us to attack them, Chucky? Stand up to him. We have to stand up to him. This is just so cynical. It's so dishonest. It really is. So I look back, I said to my staff, look, Kamala Harris campaigned for the presidency, what, for four or five months? Did she ever put forth a solution or an idea that might bring about a ceasefire in Ukraine? Did she ever do that? And the answer is no. Here's what she said.
- [08:11]
Bill O'Reilly
There will be no success in ending that war without Ukraine and the UN Charter participating in what that success looks like. That being said, America must stand firm in being a leader in defending international rules and norms that include one of the most important, which is the critical nature and importance of sovereignty and territorial integrity.
- [08:38]
Stephen A. Smith
Gibberish. Absolute gibberish. She doesn't know. She doesn't care. And she. If. If she were President Putin just go along killing people didn't ever stop him. And. But she send money. Billions and billions and billions of dollars go out of here. All right, summing up, I expect Trump to make a deal. I think he will. A lot of people won't like the deal. I'll take a fair look at the deal. Okay. Putin will not stop this war if you go after him. You would have to use military force on the man. Okay, That's World War Three. Hello. And that's the memo. All right. Hey, Trump part 87,000. So it's black History Month. And there was a reception in the White House Thursday, last Thursday, February 20th. And there has been Black History Month celebration at the White House since 1976. As there should be. African Americans should be honored. And they have a very, very important history in the United States. I have a signed document by Frederick Douglass. Okay. A great man. And I have a. A couple of Martin Luther Kings. Another great man. Anyway, 500 people were at the White House to celebrate Black History Month. No, not good enough. Roll it.
- [10:19]
Jeanine Turner
I guess God bless you if you've never been to the White House. And maybe you looked at it as some kind of great experience, but everything this president has stood for and done in the last decade or so has been a complete rejection of what black history is.
- [10:33]
Stephen A. Smith
Sure. So no matter what he does, President Trump's victory is a win for America. That's what most voters think. But bidenomics has left us with a failing economy.

Okay, I love this story because it's a very good example of a power play. Okay? And as you know, Elon Musk sent out a blast to all Federal employees saying, you have to justify your job. You have to use five things that you've done. Okay. Last week in the pursuit of your job. Five things, they're called bullets. Okay? So the FBI director, Cash Patel, says to his crew in the FBI, you don't have to do it. Okay? Not only that, but State Department. Marco Rubio said, you don't have to do it. Homeland Security Department? No, you don't have to do it. National Institutes of Health? Nope. Defense Department? Nope. Hold it easy. Telling their people, you don't have to do it. Nevertheless, and this is why the story amuses me, President is behind Musk. Go. We're trying to find out if people are working. And so we're sending a letter to people. Please tell us what you did last week. If people don't respond, it's very possible that there is no such person or they're not working. Okay, it's fair. It's fair. There's a lot of federal employees that are home there. Nobody knows what they're doing the same thing, but nobody's obeying it. That's the key to the story. Elon Musk has no power, can't fire anybody, can't look at your personal records, even though the press reports that he can. He can't. And if he does, he'll get in trouble. But the President would like to know what the federal workforce is doing that's legitimate. All right, let brings us to Stephen A. Smith. All right, now I got to set this up properly and methodically. Stephen A. Smith is the highest paid sportscaster the country. He works for espn, does a morning show, and he has done extraordinarily well at the Disney Corporation. He's by far and away their most popular sports guy. But you may have noticed over the last year or so that Stephen A. Has gone into public policy somewhat. He appears on News Nation, he appears on Sean Hannity's program, and he talks about very important things other than sports. Okay? Because of that, Stephen A. Has put himself in a position to criticize both parties. And James Carville took exception to Smith's criticism of the Democrats. Roll it. When it comes to sports, I find him to be really insightful. When it comes to politics, he don't know his ass from a hole in the ground. He's on that, running his mouth about how he may have to run as a Democrat because there's nothing left of the Democratic Party. Has no talent.

Jeanine Turner
Stephen Ayer, you, me, first order business. So do you have to be so rude? You know, dropping F bombs and going all, you know, going off like that, I mean, I know that's your nature, I understand that. But just say two can do that, you know? I mean, if you really wanted to get raw, ain't nobody hiding from that. I could be that way. It's just that my mama taught me to respect my elders. And you are 80 years of age, if I remember correctly.
- [16:16]
Stephen A. Smith
Joining us now from New Jersey is Stephen A. Smith. I think that's why you like me, because I'm so old. I think that's. Now I got it now. Your mother said, hey, you got to get old. You got to treat them pretty well.
- [16:31]
Jeanine Turner
Okay, you're old and wise, so it all works.
- [16:34]
Stephen A. Smith
And I'm still good looking and that's all that really matters.
- [16:37]
Jeanine Turner
Yeah, listen, that's for somebody else to say, but you look good. You look good.
- [16:42]
Stephen A. Smith
It's all like Botox. So over the past few weeks, the Washington Post, the New Yorker magazine, the New York Times, Athletic, the New York Post, Fox News, News Nation, have all done features on you about your political future, in their estimation. It's not like you've said anything. It's not like that. Why do you think that is? Why are you getting so much attention in this area?
- [17:10]
Jeanine Turner
Because I do something that the Democratic Party doesn't do at this particular moment in time. I resonate. It's really that simple. And I'm not saying that to brag on myself. I'm saying that to highlight the desolate state of affairs that exist within the Democratic Party. They haven't been very, very impressive, collectively speaking, of course. And I think that when you see the election and what the election results revealed, Donald Trump gets 77 million votes. He wins the popular vote. He wins the Electoral College vote. He wins every swing state. He's up in like 50 counties. He gave her a run for her money in New York. They improved in California, and obviously they won the Senate, they won the House, and they maintained, you know, their stake in the House. I'm sorry, in the Senate. They won Senate and they maintained their stake in the House as well. You take all of those things into account, and there's just no question that the Democratic Party is in dire straits right now. And so when you hear me pointing out some of the things that I pointed out, I'm not one of those guys, Bill, who believes that because you think differently than me. You're a racist. You're anti black.
- [18:17]
Stephen A. Smith
No, you don't play. I've never heard you say that.
- [18:20]
Jeanine Turner
I don't play that game.
- [18:21]
Stephen A. Smith
Why do you think Carville gets so upset about this? What is it that you're doing that annoys him?
- [18:29]
Jeanine Turner
Well, you know this better than me because you're the veteran in politics over the last 50, 60 plus years. 50 years plus. I'm not gonna go the 60 route. Cause you're not that old. But here's the deal. In the end, when you look at a guy like James Carville, who came across as a bit truculent, to say the least, I think that, you know, first of all, he misquoted me. I did not say there was no talent in the Democratic Party. I said there was no one who was resonating. They did not have a voice. I happen to know Wesmore, the governor of Maryland. He's a friend of mine. I mean, I like him a great, great deal. We've become friends. I have. I enjoyed my interview with Josh Shapiro, the governor of Pennsylvania. I just finished interviewing a few minutes ago, Minority Leader of the house, Mr. Hakeem Jeffries. So it's not like the Democratic Party is devoid of talent. That's not what I said. But they are devoid of a voice. They are devoid of somebody who resonates on a national level. And I think James Carville took exception to that primarily because he forgot that he was the one saying it, too. Which is why on my show, when I clapped back at him, I played some clips of him saying the same damn thing that I said because he had been lamenting that. And I think that when you're in.
- [19:40]
Stephen A. Smith
You ought to get Carville on your podcast, which is very successful.
- [19:44]
Jeanine Turner
I'm going on his.
- [19:45]
Stephen A. Smith
I'm going on his. Yeah, good. There's a couple of things in play. Number one, there is no leader of the Democratic Party. Now would be my first question. Carvel, who's the leader? Chuck Schumer. Come on. There's no leader. They don't have anybody. Kamala resurfaced at the naacp, didn't really make a dent. So that it's wide open. Number two, Trump opened the gates for populist candidates. And if you ever decided to get into politics, that's what you would be, a populist candidate. You would be going right to the people and say, look, I feel for you, and I'm gonna. If you elect me, I'm gonna try to solve some of your problems. That's what Trump did. And it's been very successful for Trump. But right now, the Democratic Party is in disarray, and Carville knows that. But it just seems to me he was insulting and not listening to him.
- [20:41]
Jeanine Turner
That's where his real frustration comes from. And I'm not, and please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they shouldn't listen to him. I think they should have listened to him. But I think that as is the case in our society today, on a plethora of platforms and in industries where you've got youngsters on the come up and they sort of ease the elder statesman out of the mix because they want to run things themselves. I deal with that in sports too, where you have an abundance of individuals who were qualified and they couldn't get a job because the youngsters were placed at the helm and they didn't want to bring somebody in more knowledgeable than them. Take into account, you know, your sports a little bit. Bill O'Reilly, Bill Belichick couldn't get an NFL job. The man has won eight Super bowl championships, two as a defensive coordinator, six as a head coach. And when he got let go by the New England Patriots, he, he couldn't get a job. He had to go back to college at the University of North Carolina to.
- [21:30]
Stephen A. Smith
Get a head coach. They didn't want to get a guy like that.
- [21:33]
Jeanine Turner
I know that. I know that. But what I'm saying is, what I'm saying is transitioning back to politics. You have people in positions of power within the Democratic establishment that clearly didn't want to listen to James Carville. So that could be a part of his frustration. But in the end, he came at the wrong person because I wasn't knocking him. I thought they should have listened to him. But when he clapped back at me, I'm like, wait a minute, you've been talking the same stuff that I've been saying. You must have forgot about that. Let me remind you.
- [22:01]
Stephen A. Smith
And that's about to cut through it all. And no Democrat has the courage to say this. Joe Biden destroyed the party. He destroyed.
- [22:09]
Jeanine Turner
Yes, I said that.
- [22:11]
Stephen A. Smith
But you're not, you know, you're not in the political arena. There's nobody in Congress or working in the Democratic precincts, no governor, nobody. Wes Moore, your buddy, when you talk to him and you ask him, did Joe Biden destroy the Democratic Party, he'll say no or he won't answer the question. Joe Biden destroyed it. Cuz he's the second worst president in our history and it's not even close. I mean, you never beat James Buchanan because he let the Civil War happen. But Biden, if you read my message of the day on billorilly.com, the guy. That's why Trump is, you know, bouncing up and down like, you know, a 18 year old on speed, because he's trying to reverse all of this stuff in a. In that's hurting every American. But the Democrats won't acknowledge that. And they also won't acknowledge that woke culture has destroyed the fabric of the party. That's what the main thing is all about, right?
- [23:13]
Jeanine Turner
You and I. You're absolutely right. You and I have been on TV together and you know how I love to disagree with you, but when you're right, you're right, dammit, I gotta concede it. And you're right on the money with that, you know, and so when you take into account, first of all, Joe Biden was supposed to leave, he's supposed to be a transitional president, and then was feeling himself when the midterms wasn't a red wave in 2022. So he decides to stay in office, basically betrays the party and then they gotta come up with some elaborate scheme to get him up out of there. That's what I firmly believe. And it turned out to backfire on them. And when you look at the actions Trump right now and people talk about him trying to undo so much that they have done, whether you like or dislike what Trump is doing, and there's plenty of people in the center and clearly on the left who do dislike what he is doing, it is no doubt he is trying to do exactly what he said he was going to do, which is also the antithesis of what Democrats.
- [24:04]
Stephen A. Smith
At least he's going further.
- [24:08]
Jeanine Turner
He is going further going.
- [24:10]
Stephen A. Smith
That's what he expected him to prop up Putin. But as I wrote in my column, this is why he's propping up Putin. And there's a reason for. I read your column.
- [24:22]
Jeanine Turner
It was a pretty damn good column, by the way too. So not only about it, but you're damn good, right? I gotta give it, I gotta give credit where credit to your dick.
- [24:28]
Stephen A. Smith
You gotta extract the word pretty. It's a damn good column. And that brings us to the damn good show that we're gonna do on March 30 in Westbury Music Fair on Long Island Sunday. I'm taking a chance putting this show together. It's my production company. Stephen A. Was nice enough to sign on. Here's why, and I'm very interested in your point of view on this.
- [24:53]
Jeanine Turner
Okay?

Of people don't want to hear anything other than what they believe. You can see it on cable television. All right, Correct. What we're doing, the three of us, is we're trying to meld three different audiences into one building, one show. There's no doubt the show is going to be good. No doubt. All right? But whether the people want that kind of a presentation, that's what's on the line. Go.
- [27:12]
Jeanine Turner
Well, let me tell this to America right now. As they watch the show and they get set to hear about us, see us in person, March 30 in Westbury, New York. There's a saying that's out there. Bill is talking about bringing the rain. And what we mean by that is that no holds barred, you say what you feel, you mean what you say, and we don't have to worry about the other. You know, one of us demonizing another. You disagree with some things I say, I disagree with some things you say. Same applies to Chris Cuomo. But we respect each other, we like each other, we love being on TV in front of the camera together, and we get along just fine. And what we do in an event like this is remind Americans that it's okay to be honest and authentic and give anybody else your perspective and your point of view. The key is happen having an open enough mind.
- [28:05]
Stephen A. Smith
That's right.
- [28:05]
Jeanine Turner
To listen to somebody who may disagree with you.
- [28:09]
Stephen A. Smith
Well, I hope that's the case. As long as you're willing to do.
- [28:13]
Jeanine Turner
That, you can do it and we do it all the time.
- [28:16]
Stephen A. Smith
But I don't know in this period of history if that is going to drive people into a show again. The show is Westbury Music fair, Long Island, March 30, 3pm Sunday. It's going to be a blast. Stephen A. Will be there and he promises to wear his pink jacket that he had on last night when the Southern.
- [28:40]
Jeanine Turner
I did not promise pink jacket that day. Not that day. I'm going to see you a couple of times before that.
- [28:45]
Stephen A. Smith
I might rock that pink jacket in person.

All right. Latest poll from Mark Penn, who's an honest man. This is a Harris poll fair sample, 2400 registered voters. That's a big poll. Two questions, three questions in general, do you think the country's on the right or wrong track? Right track 42. Wrong track, 48. So Trump has still got some work to do there. Do you approve or disapprove of the job Donald Trump is doing? Approve, 52. Disapprove 43. That's a strong number for Trump, particularly with all the controversy in play. Third question, general. Do you think the American economy is on the right track or wrong? Right track, 38, wrong 51. That is the high prices. Going to be hard to get those prices down once you particularly for the necessities of life like food. So that's what that's all about. Enter a woman that you may remember from her acting days. Jeanine Turner was founded a group called Constituting America. ConstitutingAmerica.org is where they live. And this organization is devoted to instructing Americans, particularly younger, about the Constitution. Jeanine joins us now from North Texas. How are you? I haven't seen you in a while. You doing all right?
- [30:30]
Bill O'Reilly
I am great, yeah. Old days. Old days here. Good to see you.
- [30:34]
Stephen A. Smith
Bill O'Reilly, this is a very worthy project, which is why you're sitting here talking to me. But I want to know why you did this, why you got involved with this?
- [30:48]
Bill O'Reilly
Well, I launched, I founded constituting America in 2010 because of what you're talking about. I sat there, I had a wonderful educator in fifth grade, Mr. Ingram, and he merged the musical 1776, where we all had our parts. I was Martha Jefferson, and we rehearsed it all year long with learning about our founding documents. And it was that he really launched my career as an actress as well as my love of our founding fathers. You know, my father was a West Pointer, so, you know, that was in the air, as Ronald Reagan Sundays. But in 2010, I was reading the Constitution with my daughter and I said, I want to know more. And we need to enter. We need to value this document. It's just like you talk about. I mean, we create a government that rules under our consent sent. So it's not we the government, it's we the people. So we, we've been in existence for 15 years. We have multi tiered programs that I've created. And Kathy Gillespie and I have brought this foundation to life. And it's everything from a speaking program to we're studying right now in our academic study. I'm the editor of our academic study, Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America. I'm doing a on camera talk show about American Express exceptionalism, what that means. And you know, Bill, one of the things I think makes America exceptional are our founding documents.

Stephen A. Smith
Because the Declaration, nobody else on earth has it. So when you talk to the urchins, when somebody brings you in, and urchins are like 7 to 24 when you talk to them, and if you mention de Tocqueville, I mean, they're going to be, you know, their head's going to hit the desk. I got to know what you're talking about. What do you lead with? How do you get them engaged?

Well, that's a really good question because I've given over 600 speeches through our George Washington speaking initiative through the foundation. And what I gleaned and what I created with the foundation is I walk in and I say, whether they're fifth grade, middle school, high school, college, I want you to feel empowered. By the time I cross this threshold and leave, I want you to understand that it's we the people, not we the government. So what I asked them because, you know, I think a lot of times, Bill, in schools, it's just worksheets, you know, this is what the government does. This is how a bill is made. This is how they do it. And they don't understand that. It's, you know, those bills are supposed to come from the needs of we the people. So I get them engaged. I said, think about what you would like to change in your neighborhood or what you want to keep in your neighborhood.

Stephen A. Smith
Oh, that's great.
- [33:18]
Bill O'Reilly
And they raised their hands and said that.
- [33:20]
Stephen A. Smith
That'll get them. Yeah. So what do you want to change about your circumstance, about, you know, you, where you live and what's going on and then, and then you can stair step it because then you get them personally involved. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

Bill O'Reilly
Use the tools in the toolbox, which is the First Amendment. So I'm like, first, you don't just go out in the streets and create a, you know, a peaceful protest, you know, supposedly. Let's talk about a petition. Write down what you want. Use your speech, use the press like golf clubs out of your, you know, toolbox or whatever it may be. You call the press, you know, then call your assembly. And then, you know, we talk about. Everyone thinks when they vote, they're voting for the president. Well, the, your representative is in your neighborhood, the legislative branch. And so you call your representative with your petition and we walk through how the amendment process works like this. And as you talk about Bill the checks.

Okay, the group is constituting America.org if you want to check out Janine's group. I got one question on your God on the Go podcast. Now, this is something you do how many times a week?
- [34:31]
Bill O'Reilly
You know it. I have a bevy of them logged at God on the Go, and it was just picked up by Evergreen and Converge to promote it nationally. I'm like, oh, they're interested in it. Great. And, and what I'm. What I. It's. It's going to be weekly on camera, but at times it's been daily. But it's God on the go. And it's about. What I'm focusing on right now is God philosophy. Because I think we hear a lot about science and a lot about, you know, psychology. It's God psychology, not philosophy. God psychology. We hear a lot about psychology on social media, but then in the dark of night, how do you apply that? And my faith is really, really monumental to me. And it's. So I'm sharing my faith and how we can merge the two together, but also just getting through the day, prayer groups, things of that nature.

Stephen A. Smith
How do you go, how do you handle people who are atheistic who don't believe in God?
- [35:26]
Bill O'Reilly
Well, you know, maybe I, maybe I snag them in with a cute little tagline or something and they decide to watch the show and maybe God will move them because I really Think it's God, you know, God and the Holy Spirit that goes in and says, all right, you know, listen to what I'm saying. But also, I think that science is great, but often science isn't enough and psychology isn't enough for the dark of night when people are suffering, we really then have to find the strength somewhere. And when we can think about, you know, that there's a universe out there that God created us, that God can help us, that he's right there with us, and that we can get through these things through the power of God. And, you know, look, we're getting ready to find out that we're not the only ones in the universe either. So I love, I can't wait for all this to be revealed. So that's the way, the way I think it happens just to.
- [36:15]
Stephen A. Smith
Well, you're doing a lot of good work. You're doing a lot of good work, Jeanine. Thank you very much for that. And, you know, if you get anything that you feel is, you know, you say we're not alone in the universe. All right, you know, if, when you get.
- [36:31]
Bill O'Reilly
I don't think we're alone.
- [36:33]
Stephen A. Smith
All right, I'm, I'm a reporter, so I, I examine what the data is. They're going to release this UFO thing soon, I guess, along with Kennedy, King. Yeah, all of those papers. So we'll be anxious to see.
- [36:51]
Bill O'Reilly
Okay, well, I'm going to go on record saying that there are other stars and planets out there and we're not alone in the universe.

Stephen A. Smith
All right, you heard it here. Thank you, Janae. We'll talk soon. Appreciate it. Jon Stewart. So Stewart, pretty much out of the game, but he's still in the bubble. I know Stuart pretty well, and you know my history with him, and I like him. And every time I go on his show, or vice versa, it always works. And he is respectful and I respect him. Now, he lives in a left wing liberal bubble. That's where he lives. All right? But he's not a hater so much. He's passionate about his belief system, but I never seen the hatred there. He's only on one day a week on Comedy Central. Now, he doesn't really look like he wants to do this anymore, but he's still amazingly talented. So the other day, he goes on television and he's really angry about the federal government, both Biden and Trump, not being able to negotiate with pharmaceutical companies to bring down the cost of prescription drugs. And I agree 100% with that 100%. We got to do the federal government has got to get these pharmaceutical companies to be more reasonable because people are suffering and they can't get the drugs now. Yeah. These American companies invest billions of dollars to develop the drugs. We have it. But they have a responsibility to the folks. Stewart's crazed about this. Go. The companies we subsidize with billions of dollars are allowing us the privilege to negotiate the price of 10 of their drugs. And 10 is all of them. Right. It would be embarrassing if it was a small drop in the bucket and that the American people didn't expect that we should negotiate for all their drugs because we've already paid for it with our subsidies.

Jeanine Turner
You're insane. Come on.

Stephen A. Smith
I'll be going to the hospital. Well, we hope he's okay. Stewart's condition, he got stitches. And look, he's passionate about it. I like that. I a few times got a little feisty on air myself. Hello, Barney Frank. Hello, Geraldo. I know. I'm. I know exactly what he's doing, Stuart. I'm going to do a more extensive analysis on him on our YouTube channel. I'll tell you about that in a moment. You want to sign up for that and concierge and Premium membership on billorilly.com all three of those will enhance your life. But anyway, that's what Stuart has been up to. Smart life Fast food. So there is a website called Barbecue Lab. No idea. No idea. I have no idea. But they put out a fast food survey, okay. And they asked all just thousands of Americans about fast food. And here's what they come up with. One third of the entire American population eats fast food on any given day. That seems high to me. People ages 20, 39 eat the most. Men consume more than women. 83% of American families eat at a fast food restaurant once a week. 83%. That sounds high to me. Okay. Average American spends 10% of his or her annual income on fast food. 34% of children eat fast food every day. Again, I guess maybe the counting pizza in there. McDonald's is the most popular chain. $130 billion gross in the USA a year. So the health risks. Average fast food meal is 836 calories, not counting the sugar drink. So you're well over a thousand. And your whole daily diet is 2,000 calories. So you're going to get fat. If you eat a lot of fast food, you will. That's just a fact. And you have a 50% higher chance of dying from heart disease if you eat fast food on a regular basis. All right. Thought you'd like that in the smart life thing. I don't eat it anymore. I can't remember the last time I went to a fast food place. No, I can't. I was in California over Christmas vacation. In n out burger. It was so good, I can't even describe it. That was the last time. I do eat pizza once a week. Might limit my pizza to once a week. All right, we have a poll on billo reilly.com about the booing. Okay, so you remember Donald Trump is giving Canada a little jazz, a little poke, saying that it should be the 51st state. And in a hockey game between the USA and Canada, here's what happened. Got. All right, so we have a poll. Are you upset with Canadians for booing the u. S. National anthem? A lot of people voted yes, 60% no, 40%. All right, I am not upset. If I were Canadian, I'd probably vote boo too. If Trudeau said, hey, America is the worst country in the world. We hate you. And then they plato Canada, I probably boo. So I can't be a hypocrite. Here. Here is the final thought of the day. On Friday night, I went to see Jeff Dunham, comedian. He's got the puppets. And I interviewed Dunham when he was 14 years old in Dallas, Texas. And I am so pleased with his success. Guy's a genius in my estimation. What he does, nobody else can do. Here's a sample. Go. I think this whole thing was funny. Funny? Yeah. I think my own party just realized how old I am, you dumbasses, that I killed it at the delay. You killed? Yeah, I killed the Democratic party's hopes of winning the next election. By the way, I want to say, I know we have people from both parties represented here this evening, and I just make fun of what's going on in the news. That's it. So, Mr. President, you know, just. Why would.

Jeanine Turner
You heard.

Stephen A. Smith
The Democrats are not panicking.
- [44:01]
Bill O'Reilly
No, no.
- [44:01]
Stephen A. Smith
They're freaking the f out. The debate united the Democratic party. That's why they're all voting for Trump. You think your party's no longer behind you?
- [44:15]
Jeanine Turner
Oh, they're behind me, but they're running.

Stephen A. Smith
Through the fricking hills. So Dunham does a lot of that contemporary humor, but he's not a partisan and it's very, very clever. He's got the. The last dummy he does is peanut. You have me on the floor with peanut. It was. It was brilliant stuff. And he tours around. He's all over the place. So Jeff Dunham, check him out. Good guy. And that was an excellent show on Friday night at the UBS and Long island where the Islanders play. And I'll be going to a game very shortly. I hope they start to win. You know, I want my teams to win. And jets and Mets look good, though. I think Mets could be a big year. Yankees are very good. Gonna be, could be a Subway series. Thank you very much for watching and listening to the no Spin News. And we'll see you again on Monday.
