You're listening to the no Spin News Talking Points Edition.
The Talking Points Memo is something that is happening so I can report and analyze it with certainty. And that is the military, US Military going into American cities. That is a subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo. All right, let's take Chicago first. So this is a problem for the entire nation because thousands of African Americans are being murdered in Chicago, the nation's third largest city. The mayor there, Brandon Johnson, is a nitwit. And the governor Pritzker, doesn't have anything to solve the problem. It's been going on now for more than a decade, right? Year after year after year, the drug gangs are killing people. No one is stopping it. Trump wants to stop it because that's a good issue for him. Law and order president. But he can't send troops directly in to run Chicago at this point, so he's sending ICE agents, immigration. This is how he's getting around the Posse Comitatus law. So this is Operation Midway Blitz, okay? ICE agents have flooded Chicago and they are looking for illegal aliens. Okay? The worst of the worst, they say, but that's not always true. I believe that's the focus. But other peaceful migrants get caught up sometimes and it's inevitable. Inevitable that would happen. So anyway, the agents go in and then the far left, Johnson and his crew start to threaten the agents start to say terrible things about him. Then Trump says, whoa, our agents are being threatened. I have to send in backup to protect them. That's what's happening, okay, in Chicago. So we don't have the exact numbers yet, but yesterday the federal agents began to arrive. Bunch of border patrol, I think some FBI, not National Guard yet, but they're coming now. The intent is, okay, protect the ICE agents, but believe me, a lot of these federal troops and agents will be put in the south side of Chicago to stop the gangs. That's what happened in Washington, D.C. and it worked. That's what's going to happen in Chicago. Okay? Portland, Oregon, similar story. Probably the most radical left town in America. Portland. I worked there. Beautiful town. Rains a lot. Mellow back when I was there in the 80s. Now loons run it. And the loons allow all kinds of depravity in public. Go down to Pioneer Square. It's gross. You can't take your kids there. You know, walk along the waterfront, the Willamette River. No, can't. Too many miscreants hanging around and nothing will happen to them no matter what they do. And you have antifa. Lot of antifa. Living in the Portland area. Okay. Trump doesn't like Portland or Oregon. Sanctuary state and city, same thing. Senate and U.S. immigration, Customs. Okay. But here there's a little bit of a different wrinkle because he says not only are going to protect our agents, we're going to protect federal property because antifa as you know of a tech federal property. So that's why we're doing it. They're really doing it because Portland's radical left sanctuary city. So the governor of Oregon, very far left woman Tina Kotak responds this way. Go.
Governor Tina Kotek
There is no insurrection. There is no threat to national security and there is no, no need for military troops in our major city. Military service members should be dedicated to real emergencies. The members of the Oregon National Guard, their mission is to stand up and protect Oregonians and they will do that every day. But they are not needed in the city. They are not needed here.
Bill O'Reilly
All right. Well, I disagree with the governor. I think she's just basically playing politics. But I could be wrong. I don't think I am based upon what I know is happening in Portland. But she's like Pritzker in Illinois, never, never going to say, hey, thanks, no, not going to happen. Then we go to Memphis, Tennessee. Totally different story. Governor of Tennessee Bill Lee wants the federal response there because of the violence generated again by drug gangs. Same thing. Chicago. These drug gangs are heavily armed. They shoot you down in a heartbeat. Talk about evil confronting evil. You know, my advice to anybody is don't get, don't confront these guys. They'll kill you. Anything in Mexico with the cartels. So there is a force that is going, a federal force is going in to clean these guys up and they're working with the local Memphis and Tennessee authorities. So 150 National Guard is going to be deployed to Memphis and they're going to be there indefinitely. And again, there is no resistance here. The Tennessee authorities by and large want the feds to help. Now that's not everybody, but it's the majority of people. So there is a poll that says most Americans don't want the military, the National Guard, this is by NPR, to go into the cities by 37% do. 47% don't. I don't trust NPR at all. But I'd say it's 50, 50 in this country because people don't understand the history of it. And let me enlighten everybody now. This is very interesting and that's why I say you always should watch the no spin news or listen on the radio with a pen and paper. I'm going to give you three examples of presidents that have done what President Trump is doing, which is why President Trump will win in the courts. First one was US Grant 1871. Fascinating. Let's face it, the US economy is under stress, national debt rising, trade war shaking the markets and meanwhile China is dumping the dollar and stockpiling gold. That's why I protected my savings with physical gold and silver through the only dealer I trust, American Hartford Gold. And you can do this.

Donald Trump
Our country's back. We're really back.

Candid conversations with the people making the rules and changing the game.
Bill O'Reilly
Can you see yourself as president one day? I don't think about that. We just had an invasion over our southern border.
Pacific Source Health Plans Representative
My husband is in the corner for the record, pumping his fist right now that you're asking this question.

Donald Trump
Your ratings are very good and I want to congratulate you.
Bill O'Reilly
And we write about this in Confronting the Presidents. So Grant takes over for one of the worst presidents, Andrew Johnson. He's the guy who came in after Lincoln was assassinated and he, Grant was a decent man and he knew the Ku Klux Klan in the south, particularly South Carolina, was just running violent roughshod over blacks. So in 1871, Grant sent federal troops to South Carolina and arrested at least 600 Klansmen and killed a bunch of them. You didn't hear about that, but believe me, they disappear and it broke the black the back of the Klan until the 20th century when it resurrected again, Grant knocked it out there was no outcry from Congress or anybody else. Grant said, look, you got to protect American citizens. Just like protect American citizens in Memphis and Chicago. Right? Right. Okay. 1957, President Eisenhower sends 1000 paratroopers, 1000 paratroopers to Arkansas because that state was not enforcing integration in their schools. Okay? So a thousand paratroopers, full gear, march into Little Rock and say, hey, you're going to do what you're told to do by the federal government. And then JFK in 1962 sends troops to the University of Mississippi, James Meredith. Okay. And the next year to the University of Alabama. That was the George Wallace thing. So Grant, Eisenhower, jfk, when they fell, American citizens were being abused than the troops. That's why Trump will win every court challenge. Oregon is suing Trump. They'll lose. Now, you'll find the usual crazy. They'll find a judge, the judge will stay. You know how the game plays. But once it goes to Supreme Court, they keep precedent. Okay? And that's the memo.
You're listening to a special edition of the no Spin News.
Talking Boys memo is another hectic day for Mr. Trump. So he begins Quantico, Virginia, that's the headquarters of the Marines. FBI is there, too, outside of D.C. of course. And he and Secretary of War. It's not Defense Secretary anymore. Pete Hagseth telling the generals they can't be fat. Got to be in shape. And no more political correctness and no more DEI and no more anything. Okay? And you know, anybody surprised by this, you shouldn't be. Donald Trump does not like the woke stuff, and either does Secretary Haig. Seth, so I'm going to play you one sound bite on this. It's not that controversial. I'm looking to see if there's any subversion about this message, and we'll have that tomorrow. But here's what the President said today. Go.
Donald Trump
We're bringing back a focus on fitness, ability, character, and strength. And that's because the purposes of American military is not to protect anyone's feelings. It's to protect our republic. And it's the republic that we dearly love. It's to protect our country. We will not be politically correct when it comes to defending American freedom. And we will be a fighting and winning machine.
Bill O'Reilly
Okay? So then the President goes back to the White House and makes an announcement that's fairly important about lowering drug prices. So this, particularly for senior citizens, is a big, big issue. And Trump has made a deal with Pfizer. There's going to be some kind of Trump RX thing. You can get all this on the Internet and all of that, but you're going to be able to buy prescription drugs in particular for a lower price price, according to President Trump. Roll it.
Donald Trump
As you know, the United States is paying sometimes 10 times more than other countries for drugs. And a lot of excuses were made for that, but went on for many years.
Bill O'Reilly
Many, many years.
Donald Trump
Decades. And it's not going on any longer. We're going to be paying the lowest price now.
Bill O'Reilly
Well, we'll see. And I hate to use that cliche, we'll see. That's what all the pinheads on television. Oh, see? We'll see, we'll see. But I don't know. I mean, I don't know if it'll work or not. I think it might. And that's big. President Trump can slash those drug prices, but remember, he's on a clock. He doesn't have three years to do it. He's got one year to do it because the midterms loom. And that's for sure. Same thing with the food prices and the groceries and all that. Got a year quick. Now, in addition, the Gaza 20 point plan, and again, you can go and look at it. I don't have time to go over 20 points, but I'll summarize it for you. Is in motion. And Hamas announced today that they're looking at it or whatever. Got to understand one thing. The Hamas terrorists that live in Gaza and control that area, Palestine, Hezbollah controls the West Bank. So there's two terror operations that have the Palestinian people, they're holding them hostage. Because if you're a Palestinian, you live in the west bank, you live in Gaza and you say, hey, I don't like you, Hamas, you're dead. That's it. So the Hamas people run Gaza. They don't want to stop the fighting because then the money from Iran stops. If there were peace and Hamas terrorists are out of business. I open my book, confronting evil with the October 7th attack, which is coming up, okay. And I put you right in the middle of that thing so you understand the mindset of, of evil, Hamas evil. That's how we open the book. But we put you right there. Hamas does not want to stop this. And there's not a lot of outside pressure on Hamas to stop it. So I'm not pessimistic, I'm agnostic. I don't know what the next step will be. Here's what I do know. This was a nice try by President Trump. And for those who hate him, particularly in the Jewish community. I mean, the man's trying. Biden never tried, ever. And Netanyahu's in a win, win position here. Netanyahu had to go along with this.
Pacific Source Health Plans Representative
Uh, hello, Is this Pacific Source Health Plans? This is a health plan. I'm trying to reach Pacific Source.
Bill O'Reilly
I know.
Pacific Source Health Plans Representative
I'll get a person on the phone when I call them. What do you think I am? I mean, you sound like a person. That's what counts.
Pacific Source Health Plans Automated Voice
Automated systems can do a lot, even sound a lot like people. What automated systems can't do is offer the quality our members rely. Empathy. When you call Pacific Source Health Plans, you'll talk to a person who cares.

Hmm.

But if Hamas rejects this, then Netanyahu is going to go in and kill them all. And that's going to mean a lot of civilians are going to get killed because the Hamas people hide behind and you know the drill. Okay? So Netanyahu either gets a deal or he gets to eliminate the rest of Hamas. No downside for him. Now, there are two main things. Within 72 hours of a peace agreement, a cease fire. All the hostages and the bodies of the dead hostages have to be released. 72 hours. Okay? And then Gaza is to be rebuilt under an international commission headed by President Trump with an assist from former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. So they're going to set up like a corporation. And Trump's vision has always been, and he ran this by me shortly after he was elected last November, to make it a tourist destination because it's right on the Mediterranean, and to have all this Arab investment money coming in from the Gulf to build these big hotels and to give a structure to the Palestinian people so they can earn a living. It is a good vision. Okay. If you travel to the Middle east, there are resorts on the Red Sea. Alexandria, Virginia, is trying to ramp up in that area. Malta, the island of Malta in the Mediterranean, you can do that. Turkey's Got a very nice tourist coastline. And that's Trump's vision. Now, whether any of this is going to happen, who knows? Because again, terrorists are terrorists. That's what they're named for. They hate Jews. They want to kill Jews. And that's the memo.
You're listening to a special edition of the no Spin News Talking Points Memo.
New poll by our pal John McLaughlin, who's an honest broker, but he does lean right. He is President Trump's pollster, but his data pretty solid over the years. Thousand likely voters, John asked. Male 48, female 52. That's the voting rolls. First question. The United States is going in the right or wrong direction? Right direction. 35. Wrong direction. Now, that does not mean that Trump's doing a bad job, because a lot of that wrong direction is directed at radical progressives. So there's not a lot we can draw from that other than the majority of Americans aren't really happy with the State of the Union as it is now. Generic ballot, U.S. congress. This is the midterms in November 26th. Republican, 47. Democrat 41. Oh, undecided, 12. Now, I'm not sure about that number, but if it's true, Republicans should be very happy. Okay, third question. All things being equal, do you prefer free market capitalism or big government socialism? Capitalism, 65. Socialism, 11. Thought that number would be higher. Don't know. 24, but. And they don't know is an interesting number here because those people don't know the difference between capitalism and socialism. They don't know anything. They're bubble people, lot of them. Okay. A ton of them. What would you describe as the most important issue the U.S. is facing? Economy, 41%. There you go. Social media, 24%. That's, you know, stuff going on in the culture. Security, 17. Inflation, 23. So you add up the economy and inflation and you get 64%. That's what's going to tell the midterms. And that's crucial for President Trump. He loses one or both houses in Congress. Be very rough for him. So, got to be honest here. Final question. How would you describe the US economy? Getting better, 34. Getting worse. 60. Don't know. 6. Not a good number. So the Republicans come out with two good numbers and one bad number here from the McLaughlin poll. Unemployment is not a problem in this country right now. It's 4.3% for August and it was 4.2% last year. It's the same. Most people are working in my area in Long Island. People are hiring. They need help. You know, it's not $100,000 jobs, but you can make a living. But the consumer pay more from insurance, more for utilities, more to commute. Pay, pay, pay. And the taxes are up to here. All right, In New York, you guys, in Texas, Florida, Tennessee, you don't have to deal with that. We do. And the big population centers do. So there'll be big changes in a year. This poll is just a snapshot of where we are right now. Going to be huge changes in this country in a year, which is why you want to stay with us on billoriley.com and the no Spin News. Enormous changes. And you know my predictions, about 90%. What do you see? A lot of things going to happen, happen fast. Stay here. We will always tell you the truth. And that is the memo.
You're listening to a special edition of the no Spin News.
So the blame game is what they do on television. Trump did it. Oh, no. The Democrats did it. So boring, so tedious, so ridiculous. But it happens every single time. And a poll out today from the Washington Post says 47% of Americans say Trump and Republicans are responsible for the government shutdown. Okay. 30% say the Democrats are responsible. Now, the Washington Post. But maybe it's true, because that's what the media puts out there. And even though nobody watches the media, it all gets on the Internet and people pick it up. They don't know. And I'm not being supercilious. Word of the day. Okay? I'm not. They just don't know. People are busy. People have to work. They're kids. They're running around. They can't be sitting there on their butts analyzing the government shutdown. I understand that. That's why you watch me and listen to me on the radio. Because I cut through all the BS and I'll tell you in less than an hour what the truth is about your world. Okay, so according to Washington Post, most people. Braintime. Does it matter? No. Four weeks from today, nobody will even remember this. Do you remember the last year? I remember it. I had a cover, but not. It's kind of fuzzy. Okay, so the most honest appraisal of what happened to lead to the government shutting down this week was made by me. Aren't I humble? On News Nation. Cuomo last night. Roll the tape. Okay, so here's what happened. You'll remember that the last time around, Senator Schumer gave in to President Trump. At least that's how it was portrayed. And Schumer got hammered from all sides and had it couldn't leave the house for three weeks. So that was not gonna happen again. Cuomo not with AOC right there. Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha. Not gonna happen. So the guy who really knew what was gonna happen in advance and you should get him on tomorrow is Fetterman, the senator from. Yeah, I'm trying to get him new. I'm trying to get him. Okay. So he signaled to all of us who pay attention, and that probably be about six or seven individuals in the media, that this was not going to go well. And here's why it didn't. So under President Biden, about 15 million foreign nationals crossed into America, many of them, perhaps most, on asylum claims, but they didn't go through the ports of entry and they didn't do what they were supposed to do to claim asylum. In the Democratic vision for funding health care, all of those people.

Bill O'Reilly
Daily Brief would get subsidies and some of them free health care from the American public. Schumer knew that Trump and the Republicans were never going to sign off on that ever in a million years. Yet he brought it in anyway. So you tell me, who's playing the cards in an upright position? And that's exactly what happened. Biden is a villain here because he changed the whole thing as far as asylum is concerned. If you in the past, before Biden were a foreigner in danger that you were going to be killed or imprisoned because of your belief system you could apply to asylum. There were rules you had to do and come here. Once you got here under that asylum banner, then you were entitled to whatever the government programs are. You're entitled to go to school, you're entitled to Obamacare, whatever. When Biden allowed 15 million in unsupervised, and I don't know the exact number that applied for asylum, they haven't put it out yet, but it's probably the majority because that was the con, all right? The cartels smuggle the people up and they said, look, when the border patrol confronts you and you can surrender to them, just say you want asylum and Biden will let you come right in. And that's what happened. Now, the bigger picture is the Democratic Party wants socialized medicine. They want Washington to run the whole entire health care system, like Canada, like Western Europe. So that's why they support free health care or subsidized health care for pretty much everybody. This is another step in that direction. So those of us who are honest and know what happened leading up to this knowledge that there's no way the two sides could have ever agreed on the health care for migrants, okay, it was never going to happen. And so their fault, his fault, it's the fault of the Democratic Party because that party knew by insisting that all migrants be covered who claim asylum, okay? But Pueblos will never do it. So they knew this was all contrived. Now, what should happen going forward is it should be a negotiation about the 15 million that Biden left in and what they are entitled to or not. And that negotiation should be done in good faith. And new legislation has to be passed. Joe Biden wrecked the entire immigration system in this country. Destroyed it. It's got to be rebuilt. Even though Donald Trump succeeded in closing the border and ICE is now rooting out, a lot of the people should be here. The whole system is wrecked. You have to start again. And those talks should be ongoing. That's something for Congress to do. Okay? So I hope everybody understands what this is all about, because you will never hear that analysis anywhere else on television in this country. Maybe. And if you do, let me know. Bill@Billoriley.com Bill@BillowReilly.com Because I'd like to bring the person who does it on the program. All right, so the nuts and bolts of all this is that there's supposed to be a, what they call a budget deadline once each fiscal year, but that has broken down. So now it's four or five of them every few months. We got to go over the budget, the spending. What are we doing? What are we doing? What are we doing? That's got to be fixed, too. It's absolute chaos. Even this Bill, when they come to an agreement, they will. They'll extend it's temporary. You got to deal with it again another three months. It should be once a year to reconcile spending that Congress has approved. Because things change. That's what I have it. Once a year. That's all. Not eight times a year. Okay. Finally, the Senate is different than the House. House passed. The extension goes to the senate. You need 60 votes. And that's because of the filibuster rule. This goes way back to 1917. Didn't used to have a filibuster rule. That, and it was on and on, and that's what led to the Civil War, is that they could never come to a vote about slavery because the south would just refuse. All right, so nothing could improve. And then in 1917, it said, okay, you need 60 votes in the Senate to pass most legislation, not all. But you'd have to read the Senate rules are crazy arcane. So it's a different situation. And Trump can't get 60 votes. So he's got 55. Rand Paul. I got a letter about Rand Paul. He doesn't want any spending. That's why he votes again. He's not voting for the Democrats. He's both rotten. I'm not voting for any spending. So he's a Republican senator. So anyway, you're not going to get 60 votes. But what you will get is the government has to reopen. It will. And then we'll go on to the next round. And it's got to stop. You have to reorganize this.

Episode: No Spin News - TPM Edition - October 3, 2025
Date: October 4, 2025
Host: Bill O'Reilly
This episode’s central theme is the unprecedented deployment of U.S. federal agents and military personnel into several American cities under President Trump’s leadership, examining the motives, legality, political reactions, and historical precedents. Bill O’Reilly analyzes the strategy, the political fallout, and the broader implications for law enforcement, urban violence, immigration, and upcoming elections. The episode also covers current polling data, the latest on the Gaza peace initiative, and the U.S. government shutdown's roots.
“Believe me, a lot of these federal troops and agents will be put in the south side of Chicago to stop the gangs. That's what happened in Washington, D.C. and it worked.” (02:45, Bill O’Reilly)
“There is no insurrection. There is no threat to national security and there is no, no need for military troops in our major city.” (04:15, Gov. Kotek)
“Grant sent federal troops ... and it broke the back of the Klan until the 20th century.” (09:06, Bill O’Reilly)
“We're bringing back a focus on fitness, ability, character, and strength... We will not be politically correct when it comes to defending American freedom.” (12:39, Donald Trump)
“We're going to be paying the lowest price now.” (13:44, Donald Trump)
“If Hamas rejects this, then Netanyahu is going to go in and kill them all... So Netanyahu either gets a deal or he gets to eliminate the rest of Hamas. No downside for him.” (17:41, Bill O'Reilly)
“There’ll be big changes in a year ... My predictions, about 90%. Lot of things going to happen, happen fast. Stay here. We will always tell you the truth.” (22:33, Bill O’Reilly)
“Joe Biden wrecked the entire immigration system in this country. Destroyed it. It’s got to be rebuilt.” (30:42, Bill O’Reilly)
On Chicago Federal Intervention:
“The mayor there, Brandon Johnson, is a nitwit... Trump wants to stop it because that's a good issue for him. Law and order president.” (00:34, Bill O’Reilly)
Historical Justification:
“Three examples of presidents that have done what President Trump is doing... That’s why Trump will win in the courts.” (06:10, Bill O’Reilly)
Military Policy Shift:
“No more political correctness and no more DEI and no more anything. Okay?” (12:06, Bill O’Reilly)
Prescription Drugs:
“I hate to use that cliché, ‘we’ll see’... but I don’t know if it’ll work or not. I think it might. And that’s big.” (14:01, Bill O’Reilly)
Gaza Vision:
“Trump’s vision has always been ... to make it a tourist destination ... it is a good vision.” (18:40, Bill O’Reilly)
Polls and Economic Perception:
“A lot of people don’t know the difference between capitalism and socialism. They don’t know anything. They’re bubble people, lot of them.” (21:01, Bill O’Reilly)
Shutting Down the Blame Game:
“So the blame game is what they do on television. Trump did it. Oh, no. The Democrats did it. So boring, so tedious, so ridiculous.” (23:33, Bill O’Reilly)
This episode delivers Bill O’Reilly’s unvarnished take on Trump’s deployment of federal force in violent U.S. cities, the pushback from progressive leaders, and historical support for such interventions. He argues that political motives often mask underlying issues (crime, border policy, urban decay), using pointed language and analogies. The program weaves in exclusive insight into Trump’s latest military and foreign policy moves, sharing skepticism about policy success while emphasizing speed before the midterms. O’Reilly grounds analysis in fresh polling, showing what matters to voters, and lambasts the political/media blame cycle over the government shutdown, ultimately calling for deeper structural reforms and candid policy negotiation.
For listeners who missed the episode: This summary offers a full arc from urban crisis and executive action, through historical context, into today’s hot-button debates—delivered in O’Reilly’s signature “no spin” style, with direct attribution, memorable quotes, and clear timestamps for further exploration.
