The rough US media is not very interested in a story we broke last week whereby we named an American citizen, a man named Neville Roy Singham, a billionaire tech guy who lives in Shanghai, China and works in concert with the communist government there. We told you that he is pumping tens of millions of dollars into into the United States to foster rebellion. He does this through 501 CS nonprofit FAR, FAR left organizations. The money comes from China into those organizations. The organizations pay protesters to go out and commit mayhem. If you missed our reporting which is now worldwide, we broke this story in cell. It is on billoriley.com if you become a concierge member, which will enhance your life, you can get a transcript of every single word I say. Okay? But if you're not familiar with the story, go to billoriley.com and look at what we did last week. Now you would think that every American would say we can't allow foreign adversaries like China or Russia or the jihadists 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. CNN didn't mention story, Ms. now didn't mention it. David Muir on ABC News didn't mention it. David's busy covering the weather as he usually does. NBC, CBS newscast didn't mention it. We kind of missed it. I don't know how it was out there. Big Fox, newsmax and especially News Nation, they're the best at it. They did highlight the story. So you have to ask yourself why would these major television news agencies and the newspapers weren't very aggressive covering it either. Why would they do it? Because it doesn't fit in to their main goal of destroying Donald Trump. That's why. Simple as that. Horrible. It's just horrible. Now over the weekend there were protests in the usual places. Los Angeles, Portland, Oregon and a few others around the country. They didn't amount to much. But LA and Portland, very active, 501Cs, they get a lot of money and they hire people and get people out there to create mayhem. In la, second largest city in the country. There were eight arrests. Okay, none of those people will be charged. Here's what the mayor said. Go.
[03:12]
C
I believe there's still about 150 people that are in an intersection and I know that there have been arrests and I believe there are up to about five arrests right now. And those arrests are for failure to disperse. You Know, of course, that the overall reason for the protest today was in solidarity with Minneapolis and that there were protests all around the country.
[03:35]
B
Well, they really weren't. This is in Vietnam. There was a usual far left cranks mobilized in social media. They have lists and names. Send them out. Go here. You know the drill. All right. Now, in concert with all of this is Minneapolis. So tomorrow, the mayor of the town, Jacob Fry, far, far left guy, has to deliver information to a federal grand jury. Now, we thought last week that he would have to appear himself, but that's not the case now. He's been subpoenaed and the federal prosecutors have asked for information. Okay. We're having a lot of trouble getting what the Justice Department is doing. The FBI delivered the subpoenas not only to Fry, but to the governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, as best I can determine. All right, this is the reason. And we have, believe me, spent hours on this. The investigation is into whether Fry and Walls obstructed or impeded federal law enforcement during a sweeping immigration operation in the Minneapolis St. Paul area. So those two men are being investigated on federal charges of obstruction of justice. Not insurrection yet, not rebellion. Obstruction of justice. That is what we can ascertain, but I can't swear to it. Now, we've been in touch with the FBI. They're not going to tell us anything. And I understand when you have an active investigation, whether it's local, state, federal, cops don't want to be feeding stuff out. They want to gather the data. Oh, right. I got it. But this is so important for the American people to know. So what are you looking at in Minnesota? FBI, Justice Department, Pam Bondi. What are you looking at? That's all. All right. You know, we are a due process outfit here. We're not going to convict anybody of anything. Just give us an overview. Very difficult to get anything, anything. In addition, the FBI has now taken over the investigation into the death of Alex Preddy. You remember on January 24, he was shot dead by Border Patrol agents. And it's a big controversy. It's driving a lot of this, of these protests. And we're not litigating it here. That's insane. That's what they do on the corrupt television networks. We're not going to do that. But it is important that the FBI investigate this because the Border Patrol can't investigate the Border Patrol. ICE can't investigate ice. That's crazy. So I'm happy to hear that. All right. But the bigger, bigger story is the rebellion by State and Victor Davis Hansen. And we send our condolences to Professor Hansen because he has lung cancer. Wrote a column that mirrored mine. I think it broke yesterday that, look, 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. We're going to do what we want. And let's see what you got. Big So I. I hope that you understand my job is to get as much information to you as I can. We're all over this thing.

B
Ma'. Am. Donnie. 34 years old, elected mayor of New York City. New York is having a worse cold wave it's had in four decades. Sixteen people dead so far. Thirteen hypothermia. Thirteen froze to death. Why? Because Mandami is not forcing homeless people into warming centers as every other mayor in New York City's history has done. Let that sink in. 34 year old guy can't run a Taco Bell. He's running the largest city on earth on. In the United States. Okay, 13 people froze to death because Mandami will not enforce the Cold Weather emergency program, which is now turned into code Blue. Very simple. When a New York City police officer sees someone in distress and it is below freezing, the officers take the person into custody and bring them to a shelter or a warming center. And Dami says, no, didn't order it. We. There's no official order, but the cops are standing down. Okay, we all have the picture here. Now Mandani's got to explain himself with 13 hypothermias. Correct? Here's what he said.
[09:30]
D
The deaths that we have seen, at this time, it does not appear there is any relationship between encampments and what we've seen with these 16 New Yorkers. The policy on encampments. We have long said that it was a failure to pursue a policy in the manner that the previous administration did. And we've said that it's a failure because of its having only connected three New Yorkers with permanent housing over the course of 365 days.
[09:55]
B
That's just gibberish. That's all it is, is gibberish. You know, it gets me angry. Answer the question. Why didn't you take all these people in? Why did you leave them out there in 2 degree weather? Why? Oh, premium policy. Come on. So I'm not going to accuse the mayor of a crime, but neglect. My God, Minneapolis. Same thing, different scenario. This is going to be harsh, but Here it is. And it's true. If Walz and Fry, Governor and mayor of Minneapolis, had done the right and legal thing and provided protection for ICE from state and city cops, the two people who are dead would be alive today. That is the truth. So Renee Good and Alex Preddy would be alive because what they were doing was interfering in a federal investigation. The local police could have prevented them from doing that by arrest or just telling them move along. For example, if the Minneapolis police had been on Preddy's block when they should have been because they knew there was trouble there, but they stood down, they could have blocked Preddy from coming at the ICE agents, which he did. Preddy went out of his way to insert himself into an investigation. The Minneapolis cops could have blocked that, but nobody in there. Same thing with Good in the car. The Minneapolis cops could have gone up to the car, said move along madam, are you going to be arrested? If she didn't move along, they arrest her. ICE agents should not be have to do that. They should not be in danger. The local cops should be providing security. That's called public safety, right? So now we have 13 dead because of the communist Mandani in New York City and two dead because of the far left radical governance of Minnesota. Now am I surprised? No. This happens in every totalitarian left wing place on the planet. I mean, look, if you read Confronting Evil, all right, you see, every single communist and socialist nation does this stuff. They don't care about human life, on and on and on and on. So I wanted to bring it to your attention because it's going to get worse. 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?

Okay, Friday, opening ceremonies. Milan, Italy, Sozo town. Not one of my favorites. If you go to Italy, you got, you know, the south, which is warmer, Rome on down, love it there. And then the north is the Alps and beautiful Milan, industrial city in the north. And Cortina, a resort outside of Milan, is where the mountains are. And they're going to do all the snowboarding and skiing and bobsledding and then the ice hockey and the indoor events will be done in the city of Milan. Now here are the deal. Here's the deal on this. So the opening ceremony takes place at 2:30 on Friday okay. And I think it's going to get record viewership all around the world. I think the Olympics is going to be very big this year. And, and the games last until February 22nd. That's long. That's a long slog. Security is overseen by the Italian government. Not sure. Now, I know they have consulted, they being the Italian government with the United States. We have the best security in the world here. Might not seem like it, sometimes we do. And I know that American agents are there, but I'm worried about this a little bit. There are two countries banned from the Olympics, Russia and Belarus, both because of the Ukrainian war. So they cannot show up. Not a lot of big stars. Lindsey Vaughn, the skier, 41 years old, is the biggest American name. She hurt herself in the practice runs up. She doesn't going to compete, but boy, oh, boy, it's going to be tough on her. But otherwise, a lot of anonymous athletes, they will become famous fast when they win. And I'm looking forward to some very good stiff competition. Now, here's the downside. At the same time, the Olympic ceremonies are opening on Friday, United States will be talking to Iran in Istanbul, Turkey, about a deal. Now, as I reported last night, I had an extensive conversation with President Trump yesterday, much of it about Iran. And you know, I can't give you the blow by blow because it wasn't on the record, but I can tell you that I know a lot about it. And he was asking, and I always give my opinion when asked. I never volunteer it. I don't know whether the deal that President Trump is going to offer will be accepted, because if it is, it would humiliate the mullahs. And they deserve to be not only humiliated, they deserve to be executed. And I don't even believe in capital punishment. If you read my book Confronting Evil, I got the Ayatollah on the COVID It's exactly the same thing that happened to Shah. Ayatollah came in. Now the Persians want the mullahs out. They want to have secular government. Exactly the same. Okay. So anyway, in that conversation with President Trump, something's going to happen. It's not going to be like Obama walking away from Assad. Assad in Syria. You remember the poison gas red line thing? No. Something will happen, but it coincides with the Olympics. This is an unreported story. So if you got the Olympics and everybody's, you know, watching, and all of a sudden you've got American air power leveling the Revolutionary Guard headquarters, which would be the first target, how do you do that. So keep that in mind. The other thing is that Putin's going to cause trouble. You know it, I know it, everybody knows it. But I don't know how that trouble is going to unfold. I probably would predict that he will do something heinous in Ukraine, carpet bomb Kiev, something like that. But again, he wants to disrupt the Olympics, Putin. So that is all in play. Now, the biggest attraction for me, and I bet for a lot of you, is the hockey, because if the USA and Canada get to the finals, oh, boy, you know, bad blood between President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Canadian team is good. American team is good, too. But Canadians are going to be favored. But, boy, what a match that would be, huh? So, anyway, keep all of that in mind. Things are unfolding quickly. All of that happens on Friday. And that is the memo.

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 [16:34]

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.

So now we have 13 dead because of the communist Mandani in New York City and two dead because of the far left radical governance of Minnesota. Now am I surprised? No. This happens in every totalitarian left wing place on the planet. I mean, look, if you read Confronting Evil, all right, you see, every single communist and socialist nation does this stuff.

She doesn't going to compete, but boy, oh, boy, it's going to be tough on her. But otherwise, a lot of anonymous athletes, they will become famous fast when they win. And I'm looking forward to some very good stiff competition. Now, here's the downside. At the same time, the Olympic ceremonies are opening on Friday, United States will be talking to Iran in Istanbul, Turkey, about a deal. Now, as I reported last night, I had an extensive conversation with President Trump yesterday, much of it about Iran. And you know, I can't give you the blow by blow because it wasn't on the record, but I can tell you that I know a lot about it. And he was asking, and I always give my opinion when asked. I never volunteer it. I don't know whether the deal that President Trump is going to offer will be accepted, because if it is, it would humiliate the mullahs. And they deserve to be not only humiliated, they deserve to be executed. And I don't even believe in capital punishment. If you read my book Confronting Evil, I got the Ayatollah on the COVID It's exactly the same thing that happened to Shah. Ayatollah came in. Now the Persians want the mullahs out. They want to have secular government. Exactly the same. Okay. So anyway, in that conversation with President Trump, something's going to happen. It's not going to be like Obama walking away from Assad. Assad in Syria. You remember the poison gas red line thing? No. Something will happen, but it coincides with the Olympics. This is an unreported story. So if you got the Olympics and everybody's, you know, watching, and all of a sudden you've got American air power leveling the Revolutionary Guard headquarters, which would be the first target, how do you do that. So keep that in mind. The other thing is that Putin's going to cause trouble. You know it, I know it, everybody knows it. But I don't know how that trouble is going to unfold. I probably would predict that he will do something heinous in Ukraine, carpet bomb Kiev, something like that. But again, he wants to disrupt the Olympics, Putin. So that is all in play. Now, the biggest attraction for me, and I bet for a lot of you, is the hockey, because if the USA and Canada get to the finals, oh, boy, you know, bad blood between President Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Canadian team is good. American team is good, too. But Canadians are going to be favored. But, boy, what a match that would be, huh? So, anyway, keep all of that in mind. Things are unfolding quickly. All of that happens on Friday. And that is the memo.
