Bill O'Reilly
The political scene remains very intense. As you know. Nobody is backing off the hatred and that's not a good thing. Tribalism has seized control of the entire nation and I'll deal with that in a final thought. I'm trying to break this, by the way. I'm not a tribe guy and you know that. You're not here watching me or listening to me. If you want ideology, we just don't give it to you. All right. We are a fact based broadcast and that is the subject of this evening's Talking points because there is a new poll out. Fox News poll. Fox News is, ah, you know, they don't do well presidentially, socially. I don't know. This is 994 registered voters, fair sample and they're asking about President Trump and Congress. Here is question number one. Do you approve the job Trump is doing as president? 49 yes. Disapprove. 51. Now that is a tie for Trump's all time approval rating. In this poll which was April20, 25 years ago he approved at 49%. Then it's a good number for Donald Trump, particularly because of all the tariffs and all of the chaos and the media continuing to attack him. 49% is a good number for him. You should be happy with that. And not many people are in the middle on this. So that's the second question. Bipartisan. 92% of Republicans approve of Donald Trump and I'm going to deal with some of the 8% in a little while that don't. Okay. And 92% of Democrats disapprove. In fact, he drives many of those people absolutely insane. That is tribalism. So there's no wiggle room here. Trump good, Trump bad. Okay, I'm kind of like that. I have to be honest with everybody and I always am. I'm a black and white kind of guy. I don't not live in the gray zone. But I understand that no president is perfect. Donald Trump makes mistakes, and when he does, I point them out and he doesn't like that. But that's not my concern. My concern is you. But overall, you know, if I'm comparing Donald Trump in March 2025 to Joe Biden in March 2024, there's no comparison as far as the health of the nation is concerned, none. I can't even explain how bad he was. You know, it take me three hours. Trump is making some mistakes, but his overall goal to be fiscally responsible, to bring more jobs, more prosperity, and to calm things down overseas is Good. Okay, but 92% of the Democrats don't see it that way. The next question is Congress, do you approve of the job Republicans in Congress are doing? 55% say yes. No, I'm sorry, correct that 55% say no. 43% say yes. All right. Nobody likes Congress these days. There are a bunch of pinheads in there. You know that. Not everyone, but you know, they don't get things done the way they should. On a democratic side, only 30% of Americans approve are the Democrats in Congress. That's because they're mean and they're dominated by radical leftists like Ocasio Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren. They dominate because the media loves them. They get the airtime. 66% don't like the job Democrats are doing in economy. It's a big number. All right, it's 11% higher than the Republicans. Democratic Party is in big trouble. Finally, do you approve of the job J.D. vance is doing as vice president? Approved. 45. Disapprove. 53. That's not fair. It's two months Vance's VP. It's just not fair. So let's let the man breathe a little bit. Let's see what he has. I'm sure he'll be tasked with some things, but that, that's just off the topic. That, that's just an emotional vote. Doesn't mean anything. All right, so summing up this is polarization at an all time high in our modern society here. Nixon was very polarizing in the 60s in Vietnam, that was pretty intense. We're Way beyond that now. Way beyond Trump is way beyond Nixon as far as polarization is concerned. Civil war was the worst and people were killing each other, and that'll always be the worst. But now we are a nation that is divided. I don't see detente anytime soon. I'm trying. And I will tell you what we're doing at the end of the program. That is the memo. Let's talk about Elon Musk. Okay, so Tesla is being attacked. That's wrong. There have been 19 attacks on Tesla related situations. 19. Now, this is the FBI and this is a test for Cash Patel, the new FBI chief. You got to tamp this down. So some examples. Las Vegas, Molotov cocktails, all right. Thrown at a Tesla location. Tuesday of this week, Portland, Oregon. It's still a radical left town. Gunshots fired at a Tesla dealership. Gunshots in Tigard, which is just outside of Portland. And then in Boston area, Littleton, Mass, half dozen Tesla charging stations were set ablaze. So this is domestic terrorism. Got to stop. And I trust the FBI will get these people and prosecute them federally to the full extent of the law. Now, I told Sean Hannity on his program Wednesday, we have that posted on BillOriley.com that my investigation into this shows Antifa is involved. Remember Antifa? Portland, Oregon based. They don't have an office like Black Lives Matter or anything. They don't do that. It lives on the Internet. And they have a radical list, and that's how they communicate. But they communicate privately as well to avoid scrutiny from the authorities. So a lot of these things are antifa directed. Just keep that in mind. That's going to come out. It's important because when you have a radical group like the Ku Klux Klan, which was destroyed by the federal government, okay, the FBI destroyed it. You got to apply the same pressure on the left. Antifa. It's not happening in a vacuum. Okay? So on television, the conservative commentators are going wild with this Tesla, Elon Musk story. Roll the tape. Radical left really is a threat to this country. There's no other way to say it. It is a cancer. And the proof is right here in these videos that we're starting to see everywhere. They're just lighting an American electric car company on fire every chance they get. Those astronauts may not be here safely back on earth without Elon Musk. People should be rooting for him, thanking him. But because of his partnership with President Trump, the left has somehow turned anything associated with Musk into a target that is not free speech. You know, when you see vandalism and hatred and you know, when will it end? When a Tesla driver is pulled out of their car and beaten, you know, with the leftist mob, then cheer that. But they seem to be cannibalizing their own ideas and, you know, cheering for the failure of someone who could have, you know, accidentally been the one who moved their progressive agenda more forward than anyone else. Okay, he's talking about, you know, global warming and electric cars and all of that. Now, on the left, there doesn't seem to be a lot of condemnation of the attacks on Elon Musk and his properties. And there was not huge adulation when SpaceX brought those astronauts home this week. I hope you've noticed that in fact, some on the left, they kind of like all this roll of tape. At least five Teslas blew up. One from the Molotov and four, because that's just what Teslas do sometimes. And no one should be setting fires. You could kill somebody. You could hurt somebody. Elon Musk might not care about other people, but decent Americans should. Elon Musk might not care about other people. You know, I don't know what's happened to him. Kimmel. I had a very good working relationship with him at one time. I don't know what he's doing. Joining us now is a guy who has been investigating assassination for decades. His name is Jefferson Morley. He works for Substack now. I read his stuff all the time. Credible man. He's not some loony conspiracy theorist. And remember those conspiracy people make a lot of money peddling this stuff. A lot of money. And people believe what they want to believe. So anyway, Mr. Morley, I know you've been looking at some of this stuff. Is there a headline that's been out there?
- [11:19]
Jefferson Morley
Yeah, there's a bombshell in these stories. And the emerging story is the CIA surveillance manipulation and use of Lee Harvey Oswald for intelligence purposes while President Kennedy was still alive. Now there's not a smoke one document that shows this, but there's about nine Angleton documents that became public yesterday. And if you read those documents in conjunction with Lee Harvey Oswald's CIA file and documents released in recent years, you see this pattern of malfeasance around CIA operations around Oswald that have never been explained.

Josh Hammer
Like a bull in a china shop, Donald Trump came in to drain the swamp in Washington, D.C. but with his bold reform and rejuvenation agenda comes so many legal questions nationwide. Injunctions, are they constitutional? What's the deal with birthright citizenship? What about the administrative state? Can he actually clean the deep state and end the politicization of the federal bureaucracy? I'm Josh Hammer, host of America on Trial with Josh Hammer. Subscribe to America on Trial with Josh Hammer for your daily updates on all of these questions and more.
- [13:37]
Jefferson Morley
Say that again.
- [13:38]
Bill O'Reilly
Who is James Angleton?
- [13:41]
Jefferson Morley
James Angleton, he was the counterintelligence chief of the CIA and his testimony emerged yesterday. He testified to congressional authorities in the 1970s to a couple of committees in closed door testimony. So this executive session testimony has become public for the first time.
- [14:06]
Bill O'Reilly
What did he say? What exactly did he documents?
- [14:13]
Jefferson Morley
I missed your question.
- [14:14]
Bill O'Reilly
What did Angleton say to the committee?
- [14:20]
Jefferson Morley
What Angleton said to the committee was that he had relied on Israeli emigres to build his own intelligence empire. And one of the people who he deployed to monitor and surveil Oswald was probably one of these Israeli agents. It's not clear yet, but it seems like the evidence in this new testimony strongly suggests that that Angleton recruited Oswald as a source or a contact. It's indisputable that he kept him under surveillance for four years from 1959 to 1963. These new documents point to an Israeli connection using Israeli agent to monitor Oswald. You know, Bill Angleton had 180 pages on Lee Harvey Oswald on his desk a week before Kennedy went to Dallas. That fact alone has only emerged in recent years, received no news coverage and is really an extraordinarily important part of the story. What the new documents raise is was the CIA atrociously incompetent when it came to the alleged lone gunman or was Angleton actually running a counterintelligence operation involving him? And I believe it's the latter.
- [15:36]
Bill O'Reilly
So I'll answer your question. I will answer your question. So Lee Harvey Oswald was a former Marine who defected to the Soviet Union. The Soviet authorities accepted him into the country. He got married to a Russian, learned the language a little bit. The US State Department met with Lee Harvey Oswald and told him not to do it. Oswald did it anyway. Oswald got tired of Russia, went back, petitioned for reentry to the usa. The State Department let him back, which was unusual. Oswald gets back, he's a ne'er do well. He's a miscreant. He can't earn a living. He's abusive to his wife. He beats her up. Then he decides he wants to defect to Cuba. He goes to Mexico City where the CIA is surveilling the Mexico City embassy because of Castro. They see him, they then go back. And this is where Engleton comes in. So he's on the radar. He's a defector of the Soviet Union. Now he's down trying to get to Cuba. We're going to watch him. They assign a minder to him in Dallas, Texas. That is where Lee Harvey Oswald settles with Marina. The miner's name is George De Moren. Shield. You know him? You disgusting. He is the hands on guy that is monitoring what Lee Harvey Oswald is doing. And I don't know this to be a fact, but has to be reporting to Angleton. Back to Angleton, not an Israeli guy.
- [17:09]
Jefferson Morley
It's every reason to believe that George De Moreen Schultz reporting went up the food chain in the, in the city.
- [17:16]
Bill O'Reilly
There's no doubt it did. Okay.
- [17:18]
Jefferson Morley
Yeah.
- [17:19]
Bill O'Reilly
De Morichiel is teaching college at Bishop, an African American school. Okay. He is an aristocrat, he speaks like five languages. His wife is one of these dilettantes, and he's hanging with Lee and Marina, who can barely make a living. There's no nothing except for the Russian language. Okay?
- [17:41]
Jefferson Morley
Right.
- [17:42]
Bill O'Reilly
Oswald kills Kennedy and there's no doubt he did. He ordered.
- [17:46]
Jefferson Morley
I doubt that, Bill. I doubt that. I know the forensic evidence doesn't support that.
- [17:50]
Bill O'Reilly
That's not true and you and I will never agree. Oswald orders the Carcano. His prints are on the rifle. The shellings in the car match the Carcano. He did it. But again, I respect you. You believe what you want to believe, okay? Oswald had tried to kill somebody before he shot a police officer. After. It's all documented in my book. And again, people can believe.
- [18:14]
Jefferson Morley
You know what else is documented, Bill? You know what else is documented? The Dallas doctors who tried to save Kennedy. Yeah, they unanimously agreed Kennedy had been hit by gunfire from the front.
- [18:25]
Bill O'Reilly
None of them have appeared. None of them have appeared in public to say that. And if they had, I would.
- [18:30]
Jefferson Morley
That's not true. Dr. Robert McClellan stood at the head of the table looking at Kennedy's head wound. And he describes this in two interviews you can find on YouTube on. In the. Dr. Robert McClellan was down.
- [18:43]
Bill O'Reilly
Was that CBS? Was that NBC? Was that ABC? Where was that?
- [18:48]
Jefferson Morley
No, he sat for an interview with a doctor.
- [18:51]
Bill O'Reilly
Oh, come on.
- [18:52]
Jefferson Morley
And these are on.
- [18:53]
Bill O'Reilly
If you want to believe it, Jeff, you believe it. I don't. I need hard evidence. If a doctor.
- [19:01]
Jefferson Morley
He's an eyewitness.
- [19:03]
Bill O'Reilly
Well, then why Wasn't he on 60 Minutes with Mike Wallace? Okay.
- [19:08]
Jefferson Morley
He was public about what he wanted to do.
- [19:11]
Bill O'Reilly
No, no, he didn't go public because.
- [19:12]
Jefferson Morley
The implications of what he said were so profound.
- [19:15]
Bill O'Reilly
He never went public.
- [19:16]
Jefferson Morley
The New York Times.
- [19:16]
Bill O'Reilly
He could have gone on every. He could have been on with Cronkite. He could have been on with anybody. He didn't do it. All right? And nobody backs him up.
- [19:26]
Jefferson Morley
I just urge.
- [19:27]
Bill O'Reilly
But let's.
- [19:27]
Jefferson Morley
Let's move ahead Robert McClellan and decide for themselves.
- [19:30]
Bill O'Reilly
The king.
- [19:31]
Jefferson Morley
I mean, we disagree, but people should judge for themselves.
- [19:34]
Bill O'Reilly
And I. I applaud that. You will not find anything in the CIA or FBI files that refer to any doctor that disputes that Oswald pull the trigger. It won't be there. Interesting. Okay. So then the mooringshield disappears.
- [19:52]
Jefferson Morley
Dr. Robert McClellan was quite clear about.
- [19:55]
Bill O'Reilly
That's fine. It's not in the files. It's not. It was not taken seriously. So the Morning Shield.
- [20:02]
Jefferson Morley
Why wouldn't they take the testimony of a doctor who observed Kennedy's wound from 18 inches away?
- [20:06]
Bill O'Reilly
Why wouldn't he go. Why wouldn't he go public on broadcasts that would have been very happy to take it.
- [20:13]
Jefferson Morley
He didn't want publicity.
- [20:15]
Bill O'Reilly
Oh, he didn't want publicity. Doesn't stack. And let's move ahead now. So the Moorishield disappears, all right? And I know that because I will. Was at his house and he's gone. And this is the late 70s. He goes to his daughter's house in Palm beach where the congressional investigators. Okay, are they trying to track him down and interview him? And to mourn. She'll commit suicide. Okay, I'm there. I'm in town. We know what's going on there. We didn't know he was going to do that. We show up to the house, the cops are there. All of it like that. That has never been explained. His daughter still Lives in the usa. Not going to say where. It's not fair to her. I don't want to put her in danger. I don't know what she knows. I know she's despised as her father. We know that, but we don't know that is the key. And I'm looking for any. George, the more SHIELD stuff coming out of these files. So far I haven't seen any. Have you?
- [21:16]
Jefferson Morley
You know, one of the problems with this release was that the archives did not do what's called OCRing. They didn't make these documents searchable before they posted them. So we're going to do that at the Mary Farrell foundation. And the website of the Mary Farrell foundation is maryferrell.org make me a promise and then we can go to. And we can put demoreenshield in.
- [21:38]
Bill O'Reilly
Yeah, I'll come back to you with it.
- [21:41]
Jefferson Morley
Anything Demorenshilt related and Angleton.
- [21:44]
Bill O'Reilly
So if Angleton and De Moreenshield are corresponding back and forth, that is a key to this mystery.
- [21:52]
Jefferson Morley
Yeah.
- [21:52]
Bill O'Reilly
And that's where we are.
- [21:55]
Jefferson Morley
That's where the story is going.
- [21:57]
Bill O'Reilly
I hope so, because we need to find out everything about it. We absolutely do. Mr. Morley, thanks very much. We really appreciate it. And once again, if I you can check out what he says. I don't believe it. And what we have in killing Kennedy is in stone, absolute stone. It's all primary stuff, all FBI files, all local Dallas PD files couldn't have been altered. There it is. Joining us now is a guy who knows a lot about the conflict and everything else. His name is Josh Hammer. You might know him. He's the author of the brand new book Israel and Civilization, the Fate of the Jewish Nation, Destiny of the west, out today. He's also on the first tv, which is our distributor as well, and we're pleased to have him from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Any update on the Gaza stuff that I missed.
- [22:52]
Josh Hammer
Bill? I mean, the ceasefire is obviously over. The IDF is hammering Gaza right now. It seems like they are committed to finally seeing this operation through. My own $0.02 on this is basically as follows. The President of the United States, Donald Trump and his entire team have made very clear to Netanyahu and the Israelis that you have all the support that you could possibly want right now. Trump has basically said give them hell, make them pay for it there. He has made very clear that the United States will continue to stand with the Netanyahu government in Israel, diplomatically, militarily, in the international for and so forth there. So to me, Bill, the ball truly is in Netanyahu's court right now. And I am personally very heartened to see that the IDF is returning to the very hard, difficult, albeit wholly necessary work of eradicating the Hamas kingdom cancer from Gaza, because there is no solution.
- [23:43]
Bill O'Reilly
Do you think Hamas ever going to surrender, is ever going to stop? Because I don't think they're ever going to stop. So that means you got to kill them all. Right.
- [23:54]
Josh Hammer
So look, I don't know exactly what the solution is, Bill. I do say, I argue in Israel and civilization that at a bare minimum, it is incumbent upon the United States and Western civilization at large to convince the Palestinian Arabs that they have lost the century plus long jihad to eliminate the Jews of Israel. Part of this is psychological, part of this is diplomatic, but you have to actually convince them that they're never actually.
- [24:18]
Bill O'Reilly
Going to get back this thing because they're crazy fanatics. But it was interesting today that Trump linked part of his conversation with Putin to the exact thing you just brought up, that apparently Putin agreed that there wasn't gonna be any dissolution of Israel and that Putin would help prevent that. Apparently. I mean, you know, but I know that Trump is emotionally invested in this and you saw what Trump did to the Houthis in Yemen over the weekend. He's blowing the hell out of them. But, you know, to me, I'm much more optimistic about Ukraine than I am about Gaza. Would I be wrong there?
- [25:02]
Josh Hammer
Look, Donald Trump takes a very different approach to these two conflicts. I personally take a very different approach to these two conflicts because, Bill, I'm a hard headed foreign policy realist. I look at every hotspot, I look at every conflict around the world and I basically ask the following question. What is the national interest for the United States in this particular conflict? And based on my answer to the first question, then I asked the second question, which is, what, if anything, should we do about it? And I, like President Trump, have a very different answer to these two particular conflicts. It's time for the war in Russia and Ukraine to wind down. This thing's going on for over three years now. Hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people have died. Millions and millions and millions more from Ukraine have fled the country there. Bill, it's gonna take Ukraine as a country at least a half century, maybe more than that, to recover from this in terms of getting an economy back, in terms of getting their people back, in terms of giving people hope for the future, to start marrying and having children again. There. This is part of the reason why I have personally been skeptical of Vladimir Zelenskyy and his we will continue this war until we regain every square inch of territory campaign. Because I look at that and I say, at what cost? At what cost?
- [26:09]
Bill O'Reilly
But it's not even going to happen now because Trump's elected. If Kamala Harris had been elected, then I think Putin would have pushed it. But he knows that Trump's not going to allow that. And he knows America is more powerful than Russia and he doesn't want a nuclear war over this thing. That's why Putin's giving a little bit. Now, look, I hate to use the cliche we'll see because that's what all these idiot television people do because they don't know anything. I know a lot. But I think that there's a framework there where Putin's gonna try to walk away and tell his own people, hey, we won, look, we got donbas, we got, you know, remote regions or whatever he's gonna tell him. But in Gaza, these people are so.
- [26:51]
Josh Hammer
Hateful, like a bull in a china shop. Donald Trump came in to drain the swamp in Washington, D.C. but with his bold reform and rejuvenation agenda comes so many legal questions nationwide injunctions, Are they constitutional? What's the deal with birthright citizenship? What about the administrative state? Can he actually clean the deep state and end the politicization of the federal bureaucracy?

Bill O'Reilly
This country was built on a distinctly American work ethic, but today, work is in trouble. We've outsourced most of our manufacturing to other countries. And with that, we sent away good jobs and diminished our capability to make things. American Giant is a clothing company that's pushing back against this tide. They make a variety of high quality clothing and activewear like sweatshirts, jeans, dresses, jackets, and so much more, all made right here in the usa from growing the cotton and adding the final touches. So when you buy American Giant, you create jobs for seamsters, cutters and factory workers in towns and cities across the United States. And it's about more than an income. Jobs bring pride, purpose. They stitch people together. If all that sounds good to you, visit american-giant.com and get 20% off your first order. When you use code STAPLE20 at checkout, that's 20% off your first order at american-giant.com with promo code STAPLE20. I don't ever think they're going to stop. I just don't ever think they're going to stop. And that means that every day innocent Israeli people are in danger and innocent Palestinians too. Although I don't feel so sorry for them because they should have tried to overthrow these Hamas people rather than cooperating with them. I know it's fearful. I understand all that. I want to play you a montage that my staff put together and get your opinion on this. I believe that the leftist media in America, I believe two things. They don't like Israel in general. They see Israel as a fascist nation. Okay? This is the progressive left in America and they don't want a ceasefire in Ukraine because Trump would get credit for that. Roll the tape. One thing is becoming clear now.
- [29:08]
Jefferson Morley
Mr. Trump admires Mr. Putin.
- [29:10]
Bill O'Reilly
I don't think there's any floor to his subservience to him. First, there is indeed a lot of land that's different in Ukraine today because Russia illegally invaded a sovereign country. Donald Trump, the American President's suggestion that any of it should be, quote, divided up with Vladimir Putin is an undemocratic, unprecedented, hot take from a sitting American president.
- [29:35]
Jefferson Morley
Trump's views are completely out of step.
- [29:37]
Bill O'Reilly
With the views of most Americans.
- [29:39]
Jefferson Morley
But on this issue, he doesn't, it appears to me that he does not.
- [29:44]
Bill O'Reilly
Care much that he is so out of step with Americans. He views himself and Vladimir Putin as sort of bonded in victimhood. I mean, these people either dishonest because they don't have a solution to stopping this Ukraine war. You ask, well, what's your solution? They don't have one. So that means it goes on and on and on in the United States just gets billions and billions of billions of dollars over there and so does the eu because you can't let Putin just run wild and take the country over. I mean, that would be. China would love that. You know, the reverberations of that would just be incredible. So these leftist progressives, they hate Trump so much, they would rather see thousands of people die than to support Trump's ceasefire vision. Am I wrong?
- [30:38]
Josh Hammer
Well, Bill, to support a cease fire would be to give Donald Trump a tremendous diplomatic achievement. So first of all, I think a lot of people on the left simply do not support diplomacy or any kind of off ramp here because they don't wanna give Donald Trump the ability to have a globally recognized diplomacy achievement to his name. I mean, think about the Abraham Accords, thinking of the Middle east topic there. I mean, the Abraham Accords were a transformative, generation defining peace agreement that Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu were able to broker between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan, 20. In any other generation, any other president, Bill, you know, that would have been a Nobel Peace Prize worthy event here. So I think the left does not want to give Donald Trump a similar opportunity for a Nobel Peace Prize worthy event. Presumably, they would only deny him the prize.
- [31:21]
Bill O'Reilly
So dishonest. Why don't you say that then? Just say that instead of hiding behind all this garbage. Final question for you. You have invested a lot of emotion in Israel and I respect that. But I don't know, under a guy like Netanyahu, if it can ever be detente. Are you optimistic?
- [31:56]

Look, Benjamin Netanyahu is a student of history. This is someone who has done the reading, so to speak, there. I think his moment is now or never. He's the longest serving leader in Israeli history. He has led his whole life. And he has proclaimed that he will never let Iran get a nuclear weapon, that he will never let the Palestinian Arabs commit various acts of jihad. Well, tragically, October 7th did happen under his watch now and again, Bill, as you and I were saying earlier in the conversation, President Trump has gone all in. He has made extraordinarily clear that Bibi Netanyahu and Israel, the ball is in their court there. So there is really an extraordinarily high amount of pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu, something that he is quite familiar with, for better or for worse. But he has a lot of pressure on him to actually finish the job in Gaza once and for all. I'm cautiously optimistic that they will do it, but I'm not certain we'll add someone.

Astronauts. It's another one. It was an amazing landing. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it. Within a minute, they have a soft landing in the Gulf of Mexico. America. Okay. And the astronauts are home after nine months, nearly 10 months. And this is because of Elon Musk's Operation SpaceX. Not the federal government, not Boeing, not NASA. Musk. Did Musk get any credit for that last night? I didn't see any. Maybe on Fox, but. No, no, no, no. Must the devil you know that he's trying to find fraudulent spending. We can't have that. So, anyway, compliment to you, Mr. Musk. Your operation. And they did work with NASA. Okay, so the astronauts got off in the Gulf. They were flown to Houston, short flight. They're now undergoing a battery of medical tests and they're hurt. Can't be up in space for nine and a half months and not be hurt. They're hurt and they'll have to rehab back. Enter former astronaut Scott Kelly. He's on Fox News. Here's what he says. Let me say something. I was watching the previous, your previous program, the Five.

Stranded by President Biden. That is not true. They have had a spacecraft up there.
- [34:35]
Josh Hammer
Since September that was going to bring them home.
- [34:38]
Bill O'Reilly
They've always had a ride home.
- [34:39]
Josh Hammer
And the decision to keep them up there had nothing to do with politics.

What a bunch of bull. Okay, There isn't one statement, not one from the Biden administration about another spacecraft available to take those astronauts home from the space station. Not one. Not one statement. So where is he getting this? Where you would think if there was a spaceship up there that the Biden administration would come out and explain, hey, they're not really stranded, okay? We got a vehicle to take them down, but we need them there to do some work. X, Y, that never happened. Why? Because it was a phony story. Glad I'm not working it. I'm glad because I'd be so angry on those sets, I'd have to fire me with these people. All right, here's what Musk said after the landing. Go. The astronauts were only supposed to be there for. For eight days and they've been there for almost 10 months. So obviously that doesn't make any sense. SpaceX could have brought the astronauts back after a few months at most. And we made that offer to the Biden administration. It was rejected for political reasons, and that's just a fact. He's telling the truth. Steve Bannon, you know him, right? A former counselor to Donald Trump. So he's on News Nation with Cuomo last night, right before I appeared with Stephen A. And he says that Trump's my run for third term, but he can't run for third term. But. Well, roll it. You're a smart guy. You know, he's term limited. How do you think he gets another term? We're working on it. I think we'll have. I think we'll have a couple of alternatives. Let's say that. No, here's the 22nd amendment. All right, I'll quote it. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice. No person who's held the office of President or acted as President for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of President more than once. That means president was assassinated and vice president served three. He could not get another term. So that's pretty clear. That's the 22nd Amendment, all right? It's not going to be overturned. So why are we having this discussion? Why? Well, I addressed it. Go. Okay, so that's a fantasy, and I don't really consider those kinds of things. It's not going to happen. Never will happen. It's not worth my time or your time. Donald Trump will serve out his second term. Hopefully, he'll be successful. And then J.D. vance will run for president in 28. Unless something happens. That's what's gonna happen. There you go. Now, I can't do any more than tell you the truth on both sides, but this goes all over the Internet. Everybody did this. And you read that, okay? If you want to believe that Donald Trump can run for a third term, go ahead, believe it. It's not true. It'll never happen. That's why you watch me and listen to me. I know. Smart life. Okay? Now, this study, I don't believe at all. This is from the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. It says that 6% of the American labor force, 9 million people, have second jobs in this country. Okay? No, it's got to be three times that. It's got to be 18%, because people don't have any money and they're working other jobs, but they're not paying taxes on the jobs. Okay, so maybe officially it's 6%, but the Bureau of Labor knows that this is a bogus thing and puts it out anyway.

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

Right now, we have an underground economy in America, and Europe is worse. All right? In Europe, nobody You can't even pay with a credit card anymore. They want cash because they don't want to pay taxes anyway. That's in a lot of places, not all places. Here in America, I estimate 20% of the working force is making money on the side. And here is a Smart Life tip if you need to do that. Number one, I'm sorry, because two jobs is a burden, particularly if you have children. There are a few ways to do it, and I'm not going to get into the morality of paying taxes because I myself have done work and not paid taxes on the work. Statute of limitations ran out of that. I was a dopey kid, okay? I pay every blank and sent now and a half of the last 50 years. All right? So you need money. The easiest way is to drive. Now, if you get an Uber or Lyft or a cab company near you, you have to pay taxes on it. But the tips are free, okay? They're not going to know what the tips are. And that's where most of these drivers make their money. That's cash, okay? That's if you can drive an automobile. You can, man, you have to drop a lot. Maybe you drive six, seven hours a week, you can make some cash and that you need. Number one, if you can paint a house, you can make some good money doing that. People need, and you give them a good price. Tell them, look, I'd like a check made out to cash. I'm probably going to get arrested for telling you this. And they give you, you know, $600 to paint whatever they need painted or whatever it may be. Now, legally, you got to declare it, but. And then you could be a fixer, a handyman. So there's a guy that runs around my neighborhood, charges $100 an hour, and then if he only works half an hour, it's 50, okay? And so something goes wrong, comes in, you pay him cash, and he fixes it. I need that. I don't know about you. So if you can fix stuff and. Or you can drive or you can paint, you can make a lot of money. Not a lot of money. It depends on what you want to work. Now, how do you get that out in your local paper? You take a little ad, go to a handyman, or you sign up with Lyft or the other driving services or painters, whatever it may be, that's how you do it. Smart life. Okay, final thought of the day. As I told you up top, I'm trying to knock some of this tribalism back, so I invited Stephen a Smith and Chris Cuomo, two diverse points of view to join me on stage for a live show called the three American Show. It's going to be a blast. It's going to be funny, but it's going to be serious. Going to talk about serious stuff. And I want to give you a preview of what we are doing on News Nation. Go. My wardrobe is going to be on point. You understand what I'm saying? I will be ready. Are you going to have it made? Just tonight. Are you going to have it made? I will be ready. You know what?

Whoever'S doing your pr, I'm sure there'll be pieces out in advance about like Armani or something saying that you should run for president. It's going to be like Zenya is going to say you're going to run for president. You got a pen there and a pad there. Stephen A. I just got my phone number one pad on me, Bill. All right, you put it into your little phone and I'll speak a little slower. Oh, listen, China can. Will you just make a point? Make a point, you bully. Make a point. Let him come. Let him come. Did I hurt your feelings? Did I hear your feelings? Not me. I'm gonna smack you around. And look at two wimps and a macho man in the show right here. You are just making a pen and paper. Go ahead, shut up. And I will. I'm listening, I'm listening. I'm sorry. Every once in a while, it's my show, all right? So it's not going to be that it might be that chaotic. We were talking about Stephen A's contention about Russia and why it's going to be hard to get Russia away from China. And I'm going, no, it's not. No, it's not. China can't help Russia. China needs Russian oil, not vice versa. America can help Russia. Get him back into G7, get them back in the real world. That's what that topic was. But then they have to fall back. Oh, you're a bully. So anyway, I'm, I got my A game going for March 30, Westbury, Long island, and I'm going to shoot some of it, but I'm not playing the whole thing. So it's worth coming to see us. And the reason I'm shooting it is for a possible TV pilot. So we're going to shoot it. It's going to be fun. Two hour show. Go to billorilly.com we got your seats or you go to the Westbury Music Fair. They got them. Or Ticketmaster. We would like to see you on Sunday, 3pm we have dinner afterward. Nice dinner.
