That's the sound of James adding long lasting gain scent boosters to his laundry this morning. Several hours later, James sniffs the irresistible scent of gain on his shirt. Ah, gain. Several hours later, James has even caught the attention of his mother in law and she never gives him attention. Ooh, you smell amazing, James. Oh, thanks, Mom. I love you too. I never said that. Add gain scent boosters to your laundry. Add joy to your day. Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the no Spin News for Thursday, October 30, 2025. Stand up for your country. Well, successful trip to Asia by President Trump and his crew. There's no doubt the USA is growing stronger throughout the world. There's no doubt about that at all. If you watch how the heads of state are treating the American president, you can see it with your own eyes. Now, this morning the president texted me and said that the six day trip resulted in $2 trillion of benefit to the USA. I can't do the accounting. That's impossible. And you know how Donald Trump likes to pump it up. But there's no doubt that he came back with a lot of stuff that's going to help Americans. However, there is doubt on the left, the Democratic Party, people who hate him. And we'll get into that in a bit. It's almost a cartoon now, but I have to report it. All right. The talking points memo is about the precise nature of the trip. So the President landed in D.C. about 3:00 this afternoon. You get a day coming back when you travel to Asia because you lose a day going out. This is the international date line and all of you should know, but you weren't taught in school. So just look it up. The president, the major headline is soybeans. I don't even know what a soy bean is. If do you? I know they know in the Midwest and they grow them. But China is going to buy a lot of American soybeans, which is, I guess, a good thing. China is going to pause restrictions on selling earth materials to the USA for a year. That gives us time to ramp up other deals with Australia and people who have the rare earth stuff we need. All right. China is going to help stop fentanyl smuggling. That's a little nebulous for me. All right. They'll buy US Oil harvested in Alaska. That's big because that could impact Putin directly. In return, President Trump lowered a lot of the tariffs on Chinese. Good. So they can sell here, which China desperately needs to do. Two hour meeting. I hit it right on the nose on News Nation last night, if you watch me with Cuomo, I said it's going to two hours, that's it. We're locked down in two hours. But they didn't do the Putin thing and all that. But the President has invited xi to the USA and Mr. Trump says he will visit China in April. Long way away. All right. But it looks like things are heading in a positive direction, right? Am I being partisan here? I don't think so. Here's what Mr. Trump said on Air Force One on the way back. Go. I thought it was an amazing meeting. He's a great leader. Leader of a very powerful, very strong country, China. And we, what can I say? We have. There was an outstanding group of decisions. I think that was made. Okay, you expect that, right? So any other human being, when they land at 3 o' clock and then they get back to the White House, take a nap. Not Donald Trump. He's having a holiday Halloween thing tonight at the Dead White. It's crazy. Crazy. All right. But anyway, I congratulate. And I told him, I told the President this. I said, look, six days over there, did a lot. And I just thinking back to the previous president, I don't want to harp on it, but come on, even you far left progressives, come on, you know, be honest. It's ridiculous. The whole thing is crazy. So right away you go to CNN and I go there. Now I don't even watch Ms. Because that's just. And I'm going to prove it once for all a little later on the broadcast. But that's just, it's not even worth the dial here. But CNN has Jerry Brown on former governor, California, roll a tape.
B
He likes the big deal, but remember, he's the one that stirred the pot.
A
That created all these tariffs in the.
B
First place, particularly on China. So now if he can pull them.
A
Off in relationship to other agreements, all to the good.
B
But let's remember this is not even a problem till Trump started.
A
You know, Jerry Brown's a smart man. He did a pretty good job in California. He actually ran a surplus there. But that is one of the dumbest statements that Governor has ever made. Now, Governor here, I'm talking to you. When Joe Biden left office, the trade imbalance was $773 billion. That means $773 billion was going out of America to foreign countries like China every blanking year. And Trump created it. Come on. The reason we have a $38 trillion debt is because we spend far too much money. Too much money is leaving the country because the trade deals were crooked. And Trump realizes that as a businessman comes in, he goes, I got to do this anymore. We're going to have a level. Why are we running a deficit to support the whole world. And Brown goes on and goes, trump created the problem. And of course, the CNN anchor, you know, no idea. None. Okay, Australia, a guy named Greg Sheridan, he's the editor, a foreign editor of a newspaper called the Australian is what he says, go. But this was a clear win for China today, a clear, unequivocal, massive defeat for Donald Trump. So Trump around Asia is flattering everybody. Trump seems to think the only methods of human intercourse are to flatter or to be flattered. And when he thinks he's stronger than you, he demands that you flatter him.
B
And make ridiculous nominations of him for.
A
The Nobel Peace Prize. I mean, that's just another incredibly stupid comment. Okay, so it's a massive defeat for Donald Trump. He gets favorable trade deals from Malaysia, Cambodia, Japan, and Korea. And it's a massive defeat. Now, China, you got to watch them. I don't know how many soybeans they're going to buy. Do I have any confidence. And knock off the fentanyl stuff. No, but they say they will. And if they don't, you got them. Will they buy American oil? Yeah, they will. But it's a massive defeat because this is what this guy wants, and he's still employed. He's the foreign editor for a major newspaper in Australia, man. Okay. They didn't get to talk to about Putin. Putin's the big one. China could emasculate Putin. I assume that will be ongoing. But they didn't get to it. And I think that frustrated Donald Trump. But we're following it. We have the best sources on this in the country. By far. By far. And that's the memo. All right. Also, Donald Trump has told the Pentagon to resume nuclear testing. It doesn't matter. Story doesn't matter. Well, we don't have to resume anything. We can blow up the world a thousand times what we have. But China and Russia are resuming nuclear testing. So of course Trump's going to say that. All right, I'll follow it. But I don't think this is anything going to happen here. Shut down day 30. Both sides are blaming the other. As you know, I. My prediction was wrong. When you're wrong, you got to admit it. I didn't think this was going to go more than a week, but it's 30 days. And on Saturday, food stamps run out. That snap. Okay, it's entitlements. Here's what the Senate Majority Leader John Thune said. Go snap. Recipients shouldn't go without food. People should be getting paid in this.
B
Country and we've tried to do that 13 times.
A
You voted no 13 times. This isn't a political game. These are real people's lives that we're talking about. It's actually true. Thirteen times Democrats voted to keep the government shut. 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.

I'm not an actor, just a guy living with prostate cancer My wife and I face each day head on. We asked my doctor about XTANDI Enzalutamide.

Visit xtandi.com to watch my story. Why? Because the Democrats want more money to spend on Obamacare. Here's Schumer Johnson just lies. He lied about on immigration, on the undocumented, he's lying about this. He just outright lies, plain and simple. It is not illegal, and his own president has done it. Okay, so he's talking about Johnson, the Speaker of the House. Okay? And Schumer wants the president to open up the government. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But Mr. Trump's not going to do that because he believes that the Republicans are winning the situation. However, comes a point where you have to. And that point will be next week. Another prediction. If I'm wrong twice, I'm going to have to shut up about this. And just to reinforce the big picture, the reason the Democrats want to increase spending on Obamacare is because they want to bankrupt the system. They want so much money going in that the federal government has to take the whole health care system and run it. That's what they do in Canada, Great Britain. That's what the Democratic Party wants. So, you know, now what am I talking about with Obamacare? So March 23, 2010, it passed, all right? And President Obama signed it. You remember Joe Biden, the vice president, saying, it's a big effing deal. Remember that? Okay, the estimate back then was for the decade 2010 and 19, that Obamacare would cost a taxpayer, you and me, $130 billion. Sure. It's the federal government and how much it's cost from 19 billion to 24, 800 billion. So the estimate was 130 billion. Going to take care of the people who don't have a lot of money. We're going to subsidize them so they have health insurance. So 130 million. This is what the Congressional Budget Office estimated. It turns out, according to Paragon health institute, it's 800 billion. Pretty big difference, right? And it'll be. The other estimate is if it keeps going this way, if the Democrats get what they want, it'll be 1.3 trillion coming up. Okay? Between 25 and 34. It's unsustainable. You can't do it. It's going to bankrupt the United States. You cannot give everyone subsidized health care. You. You can't do it. So what's needed? A new health care law, Obamacare out the window, Brand new comes in, call it American Patriot Health Care, and then it has to be very sharp to fight. You can't have people making 150,000 a year being subsidized by the federal government. You can't. But you can't let the insurance companies run wild either. You can't let the gecko lizard and all the pro football players Push any insurance. You can't let those companies run. Well, you gotta have a ceiling to this. Governments have to go in the doable, complicated, but has to be all redone. Will it be redone under President Trump? I don't think so. Not a top priority for him. Could be wrong. Arctic Frost, another scandal for the FBI. So as you know, Comey is under indictment. I think Christopher Wray, who took over for Comey as FBI director, is worse than Comey. So Ray okays an investigation called Arctic frost in April 2022. Here's what Arctic Frost was it investigated the election of 2020. FBI looked into false election fraud claims, fake elector schemes, frivolous lawsuits, financial fraud and pressure on state officials to flip vote counts in Donald Trump's favor. That's what Arctic Frost was. The result, no indictments that I know of. None. They were clearly out to get Trump, the FBI and Christopher Wray. In the process, they surveilled hundreds of Republicans, including nine senators. Those are Marsha Blackburn, Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Loomis, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tubervill, Mike Kelly. They were surveilled by the FBI. Phones weren't tapped. They used tolling data. I don't even know what that is. Now, the Senate Committee on the Judiciary is investigating all of this now because Wray okayed an investigation, a partisan investigation, tried to nail a previous president, Donald Trump, and any Republican who might have helped him. That's what, that's a, that's a political investigation. Now, I didn't object to the investigation. I don't now didn't come up with anything, but it was all secret. Nobody knew was being surveilled or anything like that. That's not right. Now, I talked to Brett Tomlin, our go to guy in the federal government Justice Department. Paulman agrees with me. Not going to be any indictments on this. But you got to get Ray up there and Ray's going to do what he always does. I don't really remember. I wasn't in charge. I didn't do it. That's what he always does. He's worse than Comey. I'm telling you, this guy is worse. All right, that's Arctic Frost now under investigation by the Senate Judiciary Committee. Don't think there's going to be indictments. There won't be. Pentagon media controversy. So we had John Solomon, who's a very good reporter. Just the news is his operation and he's one of the few that stayed in the Pentagon after Pete Hag Smith Secretary of War said, you know, if you're working on our property and you want to file a story, you got to get approval by me, Pete Egseth, or my guys. So all of the news agencies pulled out, all of the major news agencies. And I was appalled. Do that. But Solomon picked something up. So here's the initial he was on Tuesday. Let me just set it up for you what the discussion was. And then I'll give you the kicker on it. The Solomon tape. So you say it was revised. There was a revision made by Hegseth. Is that right? Hegseth? In concession to the media. Well, yeah. And the rules that ultimately were published, those are ultimately published. Are no different than what we operated under for the last. All right, I got that point, but I'm not. I wasn't aware that there was a revision by the Secretary of War. What may be intentional, by the way. It was intentional. So Hegseth changed all of his threats or demands, but nobody knew it. I didn't know it. Nobody knew it except Solomon. Solomon picked it up. Now, here's the change. Here's the original. Right. I'll put it up on a full screen. I'll read it for those listening on the radio. Department of War remains committed to transparency to promote accountability and public trust. However, Department of War information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released. Even if it's unclassified. Unquote. That was the first one. Then everybody goes blank. You. We're not doing that. So all the news agency pulled out. But then Hegseth changed it. Here's the second revised edition. Quote, department of War information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released for any military by any military member, Department of War employee or contract employee, even if it's unclassified. So it changed from the entire press to military members or those working to the Pentagon. He changed it. Totally changed it. Didn't tell anybody. No press conference. Oh, Solomon picked up on it. So Solomon's agency is there. Nobody else is there. Isn't that an interesting story? Okay, college. So I am the most over educated American I know of. I have a degree in history, Marist College, Poughkeepsie, New York. The master's degree in broadcast journalism, Boston University. And I have another master's degree in public administration from Harvard. The Kennedy School. That cost me a blanking fortune. Okay, My father helped with the history degree, but I paid for all the other stuff and I didn't borrow any money. I just worked my butt off painting houses, driving cabs, doing whatever I had to do. Now it's worth it. For me, it was a 50 year career, still rocking at this age. Millions watching me. It was worth it. I know. A lot. But I had to pay for it. So. US Citizen Royal Report ranks the most expensive private colleges. Here they are. USC, University of Southern California, 75K Brown in Rhode Island, 75K Vassar, Poughkeepsie, New York 74K Amherst, Massachusetts, 74K Colgate, upstate New York, 74K. Okay, they are the most expensive. And that's ridiculous to pay that kind of money to serve now. I paid for my children's education. I paid Fordham in the Bronx. Way too much money. Salve Regina in Newport, Rhode island for my son was fair. Now my son's at Georgetown. I'm paying that too. It's not crazy, but you know, I feel that my children need this education. Joining us now is a guy who has been in the college.

I don't know. College employment? That's fair, 43 years. You may know him, his name is Bruce Pearl. He was the head basketball coach at Auburn University in Alabama for from 2014-25. Just got out of there. He works at Turner Sports now and CBS analyzing college basketball games. So I wanted you on a program number one, because I like what you've done with your teams, they're disciplined, they're honest. But 43 years, you have got to have seen an enormous change on American college campuses. Can you tell us the biggest change that you've seen?
B
Well, Bill, great to be with you. Big fan for a long, long time.
A
Thank you, coach.
B
And you know what, Bill? You made an investment. Your family made an investment in your future. Like you, I paid for a lot of education myself. Colleges are supposed to play. We're supposed to get educated. We're supposed to grow up, get some experience and prepare for life after college. And I'm not sure that our universities are all doing that right now. They're spending way too much time in certain places protesting and having not having the ability to communicate, agree to disagree. And the price tag right now is ridiculous. And so the question is, where is there going to be a bang for the buck? Because parents right now are looking all over country, where can I send my child? Where they're going to get, where they're going to be. First of all, be safe to be able to practice their religion they want to practice or not being concerned about what color or shade they are, so on and so forth and where there is going to be good value. Those places still exist, but I think we're getting to see that there are a lot of places that that is just not the case.
A
No, there's no doubt about it. You got to check those colleges out. But state schools are fairly reasonable as far as tuition is concerned. But what do you think in the private realm has driven the cost up so fast and so high? Why are they charging so much money?
B
Well, I can't explain that the private schools are for profit, and so therefore there's got to be a profit model. And they also do a great job with their foundations, going to former alums and saying, hey, if it wasn't for the what we did for you here at Boston University, you would not be Bill O'Reilly, so on and so forth. So they raise tuition, they raise a great deal of money. And I don't think it's just because they're paying their faculty a lot. Unless, of course, you're a football coach or a basketball coach.
A
Right.
B
Major school, then. Then you're getting paid.
A
That's not college, though. That's a business now. That's not even college anymore. What about the individual college student on your teams? You impose discipline. You had the authority to do that. But on a campus itself, the kids have changed. I went to college undergrad during the Vietnam Era, it was crazy talk about protests, and it was absolutely nuts. But there was a mindset, a traditional mindset many students had, and I think that's all gone now. They just go with the wind. A lot of these kids, they don't know a lot, and they kind of like, just go with what they hear, what their peers are saying. Or am I wrong on that?
B
No, you're right, Bill. But I think a lot depends on where you go. Like, you want to judge me, judge me by the company I keep, judging by my wife, judge me by my friends, judging by the people that I hire. So when these families are making decisions about where they want to go, who do you want to surround yourself with? What students? What kind of a faculty do you want to surround yourself? Let's face it, there's been a tremendous amount of foreign money and influences that have gotten into higher education. You've got a tremendous number of international students and faculty that are obviously got a bit of a spin. And so, you know, for me, it's all about faith. It's all about family. It's all about loving our country. Bill, when we got away from teaching patriotism and we got away from teaching the incredible opportunities that our students have in this country. I'm a Jewish college basketball coach. I have faced tremendous anti. Semitism. It is on the move. It is growing. But guess what? This is still the greatest country in the world, as there were 3 Jewish basketball coaches in this last season's Final Four.
A
Now, how did it manifest itself, that anti Semitism? How did that manifest itself to a guy as powerful as you?
B
Well, I mean, growing up, obviously not.
A
Growing up, but in the school. All right, in the school system, the college system, you said you saw some anti Semitism. Certainly there we know it's.
B
No, no, no, no, not in this. I'll tell you something. No anti Semitism, very little in the South, Very. I saw hardly any of it. I'll tell you what, I think the roots of the anti Semitism even in the educational system. Bill, again, American Jewry should be the greatest patriots in this country. Why? Because this country saved us from certain death. There are very few places that we're safe to be, and this is one of them. You know why the socialists, so many of them don't like Jewish people. There's some anti Semitism because this country provided opportunity. Work hard, get an education. You could be anything you want to be. That's for everyone. And it really upsets the socialists and the people that, you know, don't believe in a Democratic capitalistic system. That. That's partly why there's been such a rise of anti Semitism on the left.
A
It's always been that way, though, ever since Truman recognized Israel. The, you know, Israel has been a fascist state. It stole the land. You know, the history. Last question for you. Say I'm a 18 year old high school and I, I can fix stuff and I got talent as far as that's concerned. But I come to you and I go, coach, is it really worth while? Spend 300,000 going to college or should I just go into a trade? I can make a good living doing that. What would your answer be to that student?
B
Well, I have, I have four children, Bill. Three have gotten their degrees and one is a superintendent building homes. And he tried the school thing, didn't love it. He was great fixing things and building things. We need more trained tradesmen. Go call a plumber or an electrician right now. Figure out how much they're getting paid an hour. Okay. No, colleges is not for everybody. But the thing that I would recommend is take a look at the Deep south. Look at the SEC universities. We had 65,000 kids apply for 5,000 spots at Auburn. Why? Again, high quality education, great student life. You know, people respect one another. God, family, country.
A
These places are much more patriotic than New York City, where we have to do nyu. In Columbia, we, we know the cultural difference. Hey, Coach, thanks for taking the time to talk to us. We're happy that you're on cbs. They need some wise up there and that network. And we'll talk again soon, I hope. Thank you very much.
B
Thanks for all you do for our country.
A
All right, now here's media madness on the subject of. And I know I'm repetitious here. I got to apologize that I do too much of this. You have to understand, I've been doing journalism for 50 years and what's happened in this country is talk about colleges going down a drain. Oh, my God. So MSNBC is no longer MSNBC come November 15th. NBC was so embarrassed by it. It was so appalling to Comcast its owns NBC. They dumped it, so now it's owned by another company and the name will be Ms. Now. Okay, so they're talking about the ballroom at the White House. And they're on with Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. He's a huge progressive, not a man known to embrace the truth, let's just put it that way. And here's what happened. Go. It is another sign of corruption and the 350 billion that Donald Trump is raising for this gilded, great, big, beautiful ballroom, which is likely to be a monstrosity, dwarfs the amount of money necessary to feed those kids. $9 billion for a month worth of SNAP versus 350 billion. Donald Trump is raising for his ballroom. 350 billion. Senator, it's 350 million with an M. Now, the three people on the panel just sat there. No one said a word. They have earpieces like, I have all of them. Producer, director, anybody could have said, you better correct the senator. It's 350 million, not billion, okay? Everybody makes misstatements. I do. Especially when you're dealing with stats. But this, I don't think was a misstatement. And it is the responsibility of the people in interviewing Blumenthal to correct him when he says something that outrageous. 350 billion to build a ballroom, okay? Now, the point is, there are no standards any longer. NBC still runs. When that was broadcast, I think it was last night or whenever it was October 29th, okay? NBC still runs it. Nobody. Nobody. And when you have that kind of incompetency, not what it is, it's just you're incompetent. You are not smart enough to interview anybody, and you're going to bring in somebody like Blumenthal who couldn't care less what's true. Remember, he's the Vietnam guy, okay? And I don't want to keep rubbing that in his face, but he's such a vile human being. And you people in Connecticut, what's wrong with you people up there? What is wrong with you voting for that guy? I know Mandani, New York, but I'm not voting for Mandani. That's a city thing, okay? But I'm sitting there and I'm going, this is the lowest that it's ever been. The media is the lowest point in the history of our country. Back with the final thought in a moment. All right? Here is the final thought of the day. You know, I say to my staff, we got to save everybody who's watching and listening to me money. Because money is tight, all right? And Christmas has come and the geese are getting fat.

Episode: President Trump's Success in Asia, Obamacare Drives the Shutdown, Pentagon Media Controversy Update & Former Coach Bruce Pearl on the College Culture Shift
Date: October 31, 2025
Host: Bill O’Reilly
In this episode, Bill O’Reilly examines President Trump’s recent Asia trip, the causes and fallout of the ongoing government shutdown—especially the role of Obamacare—updates on Pentagon media access and an FBI investigation, and the transformation of college culture through an interview with former Auburn basketball coach Bruce Pearl. As always, O’Reilly positions himself as cutting through spin, offering conservative analysis on headline issues, with denouncements of mainstream media and discontent over rising partisanship and costs in higher education.
O’Reilly on partisanship over Trump’s Asia policies:
“Even you far left progressives…come on, you know, be honest. It’s ridiculous.” (04:30)
Coach Bruce Pearl on what’s changed in academia:
“You want to judge me, judge me by the company I keep…So when these families are making decisions about where they want to go, who do you want to surround yourself with?” (28:12)
On media standards decline:
“The media is the lowest point in the history of our country.” — O’Reilly (34:00)
O’Reilly ends by plugging his website and offering book incentives for subscribers, emphasizing his goal to “save everybody…money” during the holiday season—a nod to his populist, budget-conscious audience.
Tone:
Pointed, controversial, dismissive of the media and political opponents; positioned as fact-based and direct, with a blend of personal anecdote and populist critique.
For Listeners:
Expect a mix of news analysis, editorializing, pushback against “leftist” media and policies, and a cultural critique of higher education—all in O’Reilly’s trademark style.
