You put your own people in danger. Federal government's going to step in and protect those people. Roll the tape. Either you support the Constitution or you do not. And this President has literally trampled on the sensibility of what our democracy is all about. And so, you know, the city of Chicago, I can tell you this emphatically. We are not going to accept or nor are we calling for the occupation of our city by federal troops. There are people who live in our communities. They're our neighbors. They're our friends. And we now have a president and a federal government that's going after them, hunting people down and disappearing them off the streets. Men with masks are grabbing people off.

Bill O'Reilly (7:34)

The streets and taking them away. And that's just shameful.

Bill O'Reilly (7:38)

Okay, so then those are the two that are responsible for the chaos. Pritzker is talking about, of course, ICE agents, because they will accompany the National Guard in there because some of the violent criminals in Chicago, as with every other city, are illegal migrants. But you have two men who simply saying, we're just not going to do it. Okay? If Mayor Johnson interferes in any way with Donald Trump and the federal government's intrusion because it is into Chicago, have him arrest him. Arrest him. Now, maybe Johnson wants to get arrested. Maybe he wants to be a martyr, okay? But again, this is about sending a message. Pritzker, he's too shrewd to do that. Okay? He's going to try to parlay this, like Newsom, same thing into a presidential run. That's what he's trying to do. All right? So summing up, this situation in Chicago should have been dealt with five years ago. When you, When I said what I said about National Guard, it was ignored, okay, by Biden administration. And now there are, what, another 2300 dead or what? I mean, it's just. It's staggering. And that, you know, the poor people in Chicago, they're never going to rise up, they're never going to support Trump because they are brainwashed. They live in a bubble. They can't step back and see the destruction that these progressives are heaping upon their own neighborhoods and their own families.

I'm a simple man, you know that. And I don't know why people vote for politicians who screw up, who destroy their environment, cities who raise their taxes, who hurt them, who won't prosecute criminals. I don't understand it, but I really do. I don't understand it emotionally, but intellectually, I do understand it, and I will explain it now, but first, some examples. State of California, largest in a nation. Beautiful place from top to bottom, in my opinion. I've been to every county, all right? Since Gavin Newsom, the governor, has been in office six years. It has gone from a budget surplus to $32 billion in debt. That is just an abysmal record. And what did the state get for the 32 billion in debt? All of that massive spending? You tell me, because I don't know. But 1.2 million people agree with me because they've left California under Newsom. 1.2 million people. Bye. And it's hard. It's hard to leave. I was discussing that today with Hannity on his radio program. We posted that on billowreilly.com Hannity split from New York. Ah, you should come down there to Florida. We. Well, I run three corporations and I've got family obligations. Everything else up here in New York, I can't just say, hey, see you later. I don't like the politics and I don't. But I'm going to fight it out here for a while. It's not forever for a while. But in California, 1.2 million. I mean, and now this guy wants to be president. So where are we going to move? Ireland? The Bahamas? San Francisco spent $25 billion on homeless drug addicts. $25 billion on these ne' er do wells. Miscreants running around the streets ruining the city. Has anything improved after the $25 billion spent? No. Failure. Gross failure. Okay, then we have Chicago. The past 10 years, almost 7,000 people have been murdered in Chicago. And it's the third largest city. And the carnage continues. Look at the Labor Day stats we reported on yesterday. Yet no accountability. They elect loon after loon after loon. Lori Lightfoot, we thought she was the worst. Johnson. Brandon Johnson, mayor of Chicago is worse. No, we don't put anybody in jail. It's racist if you put anybody in jail. Yeah, Nah, nah. Let the gang bangers just mow down anybody they want. You don't think these black neighborhoods are terrorized by these drug gangs? They are, but the people keep voting for people like Brandon Johnson. Okay, one more. New York. So more than 2 million people have left the city and state of New York since 2015. Ten years. Okay, and it'll be. That stat will be more because we haven't added in 2025 yet. More than 2 million people. I'm out of here. Hannity's one of them. Okay. And the reasons are highest taxes, social disorder, general chaos, terrible schools in the poor neighborhoods. In the wealthy neighborhoods, the schools are okay. But we are spending more than $35,000 per pupil in New York Public Schools. 35,000 a year on one kid, Catholic schools, maybe spend 13, 14,000 and you'll get a better education in Catholic school and they'll take you even if you're Muslim now. So failure, failure, failure, failure. Democratic Party, props all this up. You don't hear Democrats criticizing any of these cities at all for anything. And that's why Democratic Party is so much trouble. Okay? And finally, New York City is facing a communist mayor, as you know, Zoran Mamdani. I said to Hannity today, this could be the biblical Sodom and Gomorrah. That's what this could be. That there's a theological reason that an extremist who will destroy New York City, he will. You think he's got bad people now? This guy is off the chart. Maybe that has to happen. Maybe you have to blow it all up before people say, say, I'm not voting for failure any longer. Okay, summing up, progressive leadership doesn't work anywhere in the world. Never has, never will. I've been to Cuba. I recently returned from China, as you know, been to Russia, been to communist Eastern Europe when it was still controlled by the Soviet Union. I have seen it up close. Doesn't work. Progressive leadership.

Turkey Point's memo this evening is President Trump the activist. So he's a very different kind of person. Everybody knows that, but they don't know really why. So you got to go back to Teddy Roosevelt. In the early 20th century, Roosevelt had a vision of the country, all right? We should be robust. We should be patriotic. I have a letter written by Teddy Roosevelt that says no more German American, Irish American, all Americans, okay? He was very, very centralized in his view of the country. And he was also outraged by the robber barons, the very wealthy people like Morgan and Rockefeller and Carnegie who were scooping up billions of dollars while workers died. That is in confronting evil, Teddy Roosevelt's fight against the robber barons. So Roosevelt was a very activist president and he was a populist, just like Trump, not really a Republican. He called himself a progressive. That word meant far different back then than it means now. But Roosevelt wanted vast change. Trump is in the same category. I don't even know if the president understands how similar he is in style to Teddy Roosevelt. He harkens back to Andrew Jackson, Donald Trump. And there is a lot of similarities there. I wrote a column last week on Alexander Hamilton. Being re Trump is his reincarnation. So this isn't new, but it's stunning because it hasn't happened in so Long in modern times. After World War II, we haven't had any activist president. None. Reagan wasn't an activist. He wanted certain things, but he wasn't trying to redesign the whole system. Trump is. That's very important for you and every American to understand. He wants to redesign the country, the strong power center in Washington D.C. so tariffs are number one. So Donald Trump in his first four years did very well in the economy and people's wages rose, as you know, particularly black Americans. But we were still paying out billions, hundreds of billions of dollars to foreign countries. And Trump was seething because he said, this isn't fair. We're the big dog consumer. Why are we paying money to Luxembourg? Okay, so he stopped it by the tariffs. He's all even it out. They'll have to pay us to get their products sold in America. That's what that is all about. He did it because he wants more manufacturing jobs, making more stuff here, rather than hotel jobs, fast food jobs, Uber jobs. He wants the higher paying jobs and he believes that's the way to elevate the middle class. And if it works, okay, that will happen. But. But we don't know if it's going to work. And of course, Trump's opposition doesn't want any change at all. None. And that includes some Republicans. They want to keep it the way it is. I don't like the way it is. I would rather have more high paying, skilled jobs in America. And if you've got the threatened companies abroad to get them back here, it's okay with me. But. But Trump's opposition hates that. They hate the tariffs. It's another lawsuit. I'll get to it in a moment. Why it may work big time for America.

We are an impatient people. So Trump's got about six more months to see if prices go down and wages goes up and more jobs are plentiful. Okay, that's it. In February, March of next year. If the American consumer is suffering, then the Democrats have a very good chance to take at least one house in the midterms Trump knows that, but he's gambling. And the other presidents would never have done it, ever. The other activist is public safety. So Donald Trump has disdain for liberal governance. Disdain. Disdain. He believes they're weak. He believes they don't care about public safety. He believes that the poor are getting murdered, literally, and nobody's doing anything about it. So he will, but then he gets into the balance of power. So the states were designed to run themselves, but what happens if a state won't run itself, won't protect its own people? Like Illinois and Chicago, like Louisiana and New Orleans, like LA and California. These places do not protect their citizenry. New York City does not even punish violent criminals. You can hurt another human being in the city, and I'll prove it to you later on, and you just walk free. I mean, that's anarchy. Trump has vowed to change it. That's a popular issue for him. The MAGA people like that issue. MAGA people on the terrorists are not quite sure. This one, about 98% are with him. Okay. Overseas, Donald Trump wants to make deals. The problem is that he's dealing with a madman, Vladimir Putin. Now, China is exploiting that. You saw it this week, and we'll get to that. Today, China's exploiting Putin's madness by basically sending a signal. We're going to help Putin in Ukraine and other places. We're going to help him wreak destruction. That is really a tough one for Donald Trump. I'm deeply involved with that, as you know, very hard when you're dealing with a totally out there person who doesn't care about life and death as long as he's not going to be killed. Okay? So you can see that all of this is on one man's desk in the Oval Office. It's a very tough time in US History, and nobody knows, and I mean that nobody knows how this is going to end. And that's the memo.
