Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis
TPM Edition – February 6, 2026
Date: February 7, 2026
Host: Bill O’Reilly
Overview
In this special Talking Points Memo (TPM) edition, Bill O’Reilly breaks down his recent investigative reporting on foreign-funded activism in the United States, criticisms of American media, political unrest at the state and municipal levels, and major upcoming events like the Milan Winter Olympics and pivotal U.S.-Iran negotiations. The tone is direct, combative, and deeply critical of what O’Reilly considers radical or totalitarian left-wing policies at all levels.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Foreign Influence and Protests in the U.S.
[00:07 – 03:11]
- O’Reilly reports that Neville Roy Singham, a Shanghai-based American tech billionaire, is allegedly funnelling “tens of millions of dollars” from China into the U.S. through far-left 501(c)(3) nonprofits to “foster rebellion”—including paying protesters to “commit mayhem.”
- Criticism of mainstream media outlets (CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS) for choosing not to cover the story, suggesting a purposeful omission because it doesn’t “fit in to their main goal of destroying Donald Trump.”
- Praises right-wing outlets (Fox News, Newsmax, NewsNation) for highlighting the issue.
- Describes recent protests (notably in Los Angeles and Portland) as minor in scale but fueled by the aforementioned groups, claiming linkages between funding and direct action.
Notable Quote:
"You would think that every American would say we can’t allow foreign adversaries… to pump money into our country to destabilize it. That’s terrible. We got to stop that, right? Well, it doesn’t seem like the corrupt American media is very interested."
— Bill O’Reilly [01:42]
2. Federal Investigations and Local Official Subpoenas
[03:35 – 07:48]
- Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz reportedly subpoenaed for information as part of a federal investigation into possible obstruction of justice during a major immigration operation.
O’Reilly notes difficulty obtaining details due to the Justice Department’s reticence. - Discusses the handover of the Alex Preddy shooting death case to the FBI—a move O’Reilly supports as necessary, arguing ICE and Border Patrol cannot issue judgments on themselves.
- References Victor Davis Hanson’s recent column equating state defiance of federal authority to pre-Civil War rebellion.
Notable Quote:
"This is no different than what happened before the Civil War with the South. It’s no different. It’s the same exact thing. States going ‘blank you, federal government.’"
— Bill O’Reilly [07:28]
3. Failures in Crisis Leadership: New York City & Minneapolis
[07:52 – 13:27]
- Severe cold snap in New York City: O’Reilly blames Mayor Ma’am Mandami (age 34) for at least 13 out of 16 deaths due to hypothermia, alleging failure to enforce the city’s cold weather “Code Blue” program and mandatory sheltering of unhoused people.
- Plays a clip of Mandami defending encampment policies and responding to death statistics (calls the mayor’s statements “gibberish”).
- Draws a parallel to Minneapolis, criticizing officials for not supporting ICE operations, arguing it cost lives (names two deceased: Renee Good and Alex Preddy).
Notable Quote:
"34 year old guy can’t run a Taco Bell. He’s running the largest city on earth… Let that sink in. 13 people froze to death because Mandami will not enforce the Cold Weather emergency program…"
— Bill O’Reilly [08:05]
Notable Quote:
"My God, Minneapolis. Same thing, different scenario. This is going to be harsh, but... If Walz and Fry, Governor and mayor of Minneapolis, had done the right and legal thing... the two people who are dead would be alive today."
— Bill O’Reilly [10:19]
4. Broader Commentary on Left-Wing Governance
[12:20 – 13:27]
- O’Reilly links failings in New York and Minnesota to “totalitarian left-wing” policies and draws comparisons to communist and socialist countries, referencing his own book Confronting Evil.
Notable Quote:
"This happens in every totalitarian left wing place on the planet. I mean, look, if you read Confronting Evil... every single communist and socialist nation does this stuff. They don’t care about human life…"
— Bill O’Reilly [12:53]
5. Preview: 2026 Winter Olympics & Geopolitical Tensions
[13:31 – 18:41]
- Discusses upcoming Winter Olympics in Milan, expressing enthusiasm for hockey and skepticism about security, noting American agents are assisting the Italians.
- Russia and Belarus banned due to the Ukraine war.
- Reveals U.S.–Iran talks in Istanbul coinciding with the Olympics opening, teasing private conversations with former President Trump regarding potential deals:
Suggests possible U.S. military action against the Iranian Revolutionary Guard might be timed with the Games. - Predicts that Russian President Putin could disrupt the Olympics, possibly through severe escalation in Ukraine.
- Highlights media disinterest in this tactical overlap of global events.
Notable Quote:
"Now, as I reported last night, I had an extensive conversation with President Trump yesterday, much of it about Iran... Something’s going to happen... It’s not going to be like Obama walking away from Assad… Something will happen, but it coincides with the Olympics. This is an unreported story."

— Bill O’Reilly [01:58] -
"You cannot have a system where some laws are obeyed and others aren’t. You cannot allow people to freeze to death. You have to forcibly remove them. The drug addicts don't care if they die. I know that. But we as a society have to care, don’t we?"
— Bill O'Reilly [13:17] -

Summary
Bill O’Reilly’s February 6, 2026, TPM Edition offers a highly critical view of U.S. domestic upheaval, accusing both foreign actors (notably China) and left-leaning domestic leaders of contributing to unrest, chaos, and even unnecessary deaths. He repeatedly lambasts mainstream media for selective reporting, lauds conservative outlets, and pervasively frames recent events as evidence of a drift toward lawlessness and governmental neglect under progressive leadership. O’Reilly ends with a global focus, warning listeners to closely watch the confluence of the Olympic spectacle and a potentially momentous U.S.–Iranian negotiation, while hinting at off-the-record insights from Donald Trump. Throughout, the podcast’s tone is urgent, combative, and rooted in O’Reilly’s archetypal “no spin—just facts” approach.
