Date: January 28, 2026
Host: Bill O’Reilly
Featured Guest: Jerry Dunleavy (Reporter, Just the News)

Episode Overview

Bill O’Reilly’s episode examines the continuing upheaval in Minnesota following violent incidents linked to federal immigration enforcement. He delivers strong criticism of both local and federal authorities for opaque investigations and inadequate communication regarding the unrest. The discussion pivotally centers on alleged funding of protest movements by billionaire Neville Roy Singham, suggesting links between radical activism, foreign influence (especially from China), and U.S. domestic discord. O’Reilly is joined by investigative reporter Jerry Dunleavy, who expands on Singham’s network and its implications. The episode’s tone is urgent, confrontational, and investigative, committed to exposing what O’Reilly perceives as underreported threats to national stability.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Minnesota Unrest and Government Response

• Situation Recap:

  • O’Reilly references a two-hour meeting between Donald Trump and Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem, who faces criticism for premature public statements post-disaster and for her perceived lack of credibility (03:00).
  • The Department of Justice has subpoenaed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey in connection with issues possibly amounting to “insurrection” or obstruction of federal agents (04:00).

• O’Reilly’s Critique:

  • Transparency in the FBI’s ongoing investigation is sorely lacking. He contends the public is entitled to know specifics about such high-profile subpoenas and ongoing probes:

    "They should be having press conferences in Washington saying, look, this is our investigation. This is what we're looking at in Minnesota on both sides. On both sides. We don't need silence anymore." (02:10)

  • Condemns the media for jumping to conclusions against Trump supporters and accuses some conservatives of willful ignorance (02:40).
  • Faults law enforcement hierarchy for lack of clear, public explanation and response, calling for an FBI elite unit to take over investigations rather than internal probes by agencies like ICE (05:00).

• Security Failures:

  • O’Reilly and guest Leland Vitter note the total absence of local police officers protecting ICE agents during recent demonstrations—by explicit order of state and city officials (11:45).
  • O’Reilly asserts that such inaction by authorities is tantamount to "rebellion" and potentially prosecutable as insurrection under federal law (13:55).

2. Media Bias and Public Knowledge

• Audience Fragmentation:

  • O’Reilly divides the American public into those seeking facts (his audience), millions who tune into networks merely to reinforce their biases, and a larger group who consume no news but still form opinions and vote (08:20).

• Misreporting Allegations:

  • He slams both left- and right-leaning media for failing to fairly or adequately report the truth:

    "...what else is new? And then right wing people, Trump supporters, many of them just ignore any kind of situation that's going south. Neither of that serves your interest. We do." (02:40) “There are two different stories here. The first story is the violence against the two people who are dead... The most important part for News Nation viewers isn't about politicians, it's about the misreporting of this story in the totality.” (09:57)

3. Allegations Against Governor Walz and Mayor Frey

• O’Reilly’s Position:

  • Suggests both could be “charged with rebellion and insurrection under the US Code 2383. This is a rebellion. That is why the people are dead.” (13:45)
  • Criticizes inaction and radical stances by Mayor Frey, characterizing him as someone who “agitates” and “won't obey any laws” (30:30).
  • Demands transparency and due process for all involved, including Border Patrol/ICE agents who used deadly force.

• Call for De-escalation:

  • Acknowledges Trump’s efforts to de-escalate, describing it as “the best thing that can happen right now,” but insists this does not excuse rebellion or insurrection by local officials (14:25).

4. Foreign Interference: Neville Roy Singham and the Protest Funding Network

• Background & Allegations:

  • O’Reilly alleges Neville Roy Singham, an American billionaire residing in Shanghai and working with the Chinese government, is funneling millions into U.S. radical organizations—Party for Socialism and Liberation, Democratic Socialists of America, and Minnesota Immigration Rights Action Committee—to foment unrest (15:30).

    “He is funneling millions of dollars into the United States of America through 501s... to these radical organizations who are then agitating professional people. Communists, mostly.” (15:45)

  • Singham is described as being previously investigated by the FBI.

• Key Soundbite:

  “This is a foreign power. Beijing using this American citizen who lives openly in Shanghai in luxury, knowing that this man is funneling tens of millions, probably more, into this country to try to destroy the government. What the deuce is that? Where are you, New York Times?” (16:18)

5. Guest Segment: Jerry Dunleavy on Singham’s Network

• Sophisticated Operations:

  • Dunleavy underscores the elaborate, interconnected nature of Singham’s funded groups—including People's Forum, Party for Socialism and Liberation, Code Pink, and Answer Coalition. They organize rapid, widespread protest actions across the U.S. (22:31–24:20)

    “They do have people that are getting paid, obviously the executives and leaders of these groups who are often out there leading the protests and demonstrations. Then they have their members themselves. And then wherever they go, whatever the city they’re descending on, they link up with local groups...” (24:58)

• Evidence of Foreign Collusion:

  • Dunleavy highlights that Singham’s Shanghai office is physically co-located with Chinese state media operations, marking a “powerful” if circumstantial link to Beijing. (26:02)

• Missing Federal Action:

  • O’Reilly and Dunleavy lament the lack of visible, aggressive federal action—both in prosecutions (FARA violations not pursued) and in public exposure.

    “If there’s an investigation happening, it is an invisible one at the moment... But no investigation is also invisible. So we don’t know for sure.” (26:51)

6. Recent Minneapolis Incidents

• Hotel Attack:

  • O’Reilly notes that a Minneapolis hotel housing ICE agents was attacked days prior; no arrests made despite security cameras, alleging police and city complicitness (29:00).

• Actions by Mayor Frey:

  • Characterizes the mayor as radical in his refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement.
  • Interspersed with audio of Frey defending sanctuary city policies and rejecting federal orders (30:30).

7. Federal Political Fallout and Media Spin

• Responses from Biden and Schumer:
  • O’Reilly reads out Biden’s social media post criticising Trump and framing the violence as the federal government targeting its citizens. O’Reilly calls this “irresponsible” and part of a pattern of mismanagement and deflection (21:00).
  • Accuses Democrats of creating chaos for partisan advantage—faults media for portraying Trump’s de-escalation efforts as “backing down,” calling instead for a pragmatic defusing of violence (31:48).

8. O’Reilly’s Broader Arguments

• Warns that failure to enforce federal law and unchecked foreign-funded agitation risk the dissolution of national order.

  “If you continue... to allow states and cities to not enforce federal law, you don't have a country, it goes.” (14:05)

• Demands that FBI Director Kash Patel hold regular, public briefings on these investigations.
