Bill O'Reilly
Hey, Bill O'Reilly here. Welcome to the no Spin News for Thursday, June 5, 2025. Stand up for your country. Big call between President Trump and Chinese President Xi the on Thursday morning. And we predicted that would happen yesterday. In fact, we reported it would happen. And I knew it would happen because the president told me it would happen. As you may know, I debriefed him on my trip to Beijing, which I totally Chinese Communists I was going to do. I just want to reiterate that there was everything was up front okay in this thing because that's who I am. I don't play any games. All right. You want me to speak to you? I'm going to tell you what's on my mind, but I'm not holding anything back. And I'm going to tell you the consequences of everything. So I knew that the phone call was going to be made. And it's a very important call. We'll get to it in the second segment. The talking points memo, however, is on the growing Biden scandal, and it is that it is a scandal. Now the House Oversight Committee is investigating whether President Biden actually knew what he was signing when he didn't sign the executive orders, but an auto pen did. Are you a little confused? So the president issues executive orders. Legally, he can use a machine to sign the orders, but that shouldn't happen unless the president is indisposed. In Biden's case, it happened a shocking amount. And I'll give you the stats in a moment. So the House Oversight Committee wants to know why, what was going on? Did Biden even know what was in these executive orders? Very tough to prove. Very, very tough. And Biden deserves due Process, as all Americans are. And you know, the right wing anti Biden people are going crazy. You know, he didn't know, he didn't want to. We don't do that here. What we do is report methodically. And here's what we know. There is no question that all mental acuity questions surround Jill Biden, the First Lady. That is beyond any reasonable doubt. She knew day to day the condition of her husband. Okay. She has not been called in front of the Oversight Committee yet. She will be the following. Well, let me, let me give you a little bit of a primer before we get to the people who have been called. So on May 21, I went on News Nation, Cuomo, and I told Mr. Cuomo and a vowed Democrat that this Biden thing was going to be as big as Watergate. Roll tape. Look, if you want to try to justify this unbelievable cover up that's going to rise as high as Watergate. What is the COVID up? Watergate, Biden, Watergate exam. Worse than Watergate. I'll give you the last word if. Yeah, give it to me because, boy, you're killing yourself. Oh, yeah, I'm killing myself. Yeah. You have a right as an American citizen, Cuomo, to know if your president is infirmed, mentally or physically. I agree. The Constitution gave the privilege to the press to keep an eye on these people. Yes. So that we would know their status and condition. In Watergate, they covered up a crime.
Listener
Yes.
Bill O'Reilly
If Colonel o' Connor gave a PSA test that showed Biden had cancer and kept it from the public, that is a crime. Okay? So now everybody is saying it's like Watergate. So, you know, I like Cuomo, you know that I go on his program all the time, but he was just being an arrogant ass. You bet. You wait and see what happens here. Because you cannot cover up. Right. A mental acuity or a physical situation in the White House. You can't. And it is Watergate. It's worse than Watergate. Probably. Nixon's people covered up crimes, all right? They covered up break ins, they covered up bribery, they covered all that stuff. Okay? So the following people are going to have to testify in front of the House Oversight Committee. Here they are, former senior adviser Michael Donilon, Senior adviser Anita Dunn, former Biden Chief of staff Ron Klain, former deputy chief of staff of policy Bruce Reed, former counselor to President Steve Richetti. Now they will retain counsel. They know they're in trouble and they're all going to say the same thing. Oh, we didn't say anything when we Were there. It was fine. Oh, no. He knew everything. That's what they're all going to say. They're not going to say, yeah, I lied about it. They're not. And again, it's going to be hard for the Oversight Committee to prove anything. It will, because there were days when President Biden was lucid. However, in my opinion, this was a mammoth cover up. And the guy who's in most trouble is the doctor that I just mentioned, o' Connor. He's a colonel. Retired colonel in the Army. And he was examining Biden. Roll the tape.
Medical Professional
How's the President's health? It is. And how is his mental cognition? It's excellent. Is there a reason you didn't perform a cognitive test on him?
Bill O'Reilly
You don't need to. He's here every day. Okay, now that's a tough one. And if o' Connor did not give the prostate test or did give it and then held it back, because, as you know, President Biden has cancer. Prostate cancer, he's going to have to be prosecuted. Now, that might not reach that, because this is a committee that's looking at this. It's not the FBI, it's not the Justice Department. Although Donald Trump has called for an investigation, which means that the Justice Department is going to have to get involved because that's where it has to go. I mean, these pinheaded House people, Congress people, senators. Yeah, they can ask the questions, they can embarrass people, but you need hard evidence, and it's a tough one. It is a tough one. Now, let's get to the executive orders at Play. So from January 1st of this year to Inauguration Day on the 21st, there were 14 executive orders signed in the White House, all of them by executive order, by auto pen, I should say all of them. All 14. Pretty troubling. In 2024. Okay, 74% of all EOs signed by auto pen. No excuse. It's an astronomical number. I don't think it's ever, ever been anywhere close to another president doing that. Why? Biden couldn't take the pen and sign the order. Does that take three seconds? Why? Okay, and now the names. All right, remember that? The pardons issued the last few days of Biden's tenure, they were pretty big. All right, here's who got pardoned by auto pen. His brother James, wife Sarah Jones, Biden, sister Valerie Biden Owens, husband John, his brother Francis Biden, General Mark Milley, and Dr. Anthony Fauci. I mean, they're huge names. And he couldn't sign their pardons. And autopen had to do it. Doesn't stack. Doesn't stack. So we're in a position here where this scandal and it is, come on. I mean if you don't know by now this, that the president of the United States was virtually incapacitated on certain days and we the people were lied to about it. If you don't know that by now, you don't want to know. You just don't want to know. And this helps President Trump because it will override the controversy du jour. This becomes the bigger story than Trump banning countries and we'll get to that in a moment or whatever it may be that day. And it negates the hate Trump media because they had no interest in reporting this story at all as we know now. And that's the memo. 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.

Bill O'Reilly
All right, so let's get to the phone call. We'll let the president describe it. Full screen quote, I just included a very good phone call with President Xi of China discussing some of the intricacies of our recently made and agreed to trade deal. Call lasted approximately one and a half hours and resulted in very positive conclusion for both countries. The conversation was focused almost entirely on trade. Nothing was discussed concerning Russia, Ukraine or Iran, unquote. That was posted on Truth Social. Okay, so this morning I appeared on our flagship radio station WABC in New York City with Sid Rosenberg. And here's what went down on that. Go.
Listener
I'm going to give you the credit. You're too. Well, actually, not too humble. Maybe he'll take the credit. I'm going to give you the credit for this upcoming meeting or conversation between President Trump and President Xi. I think you going to China, you speaking in, in front of his people, doing what you did a couple of weeks ago, was kind of a linchpin for what's coming up next. Are you willing to accept that credit?
Trump Supporter
Well, I appreciate you standing in front of my modesty, which doesn't exist. I wasn't surprised, let's put it that way, that the phone call has been arranged. Now, I'm not taking credit for it. It was due. But what I gave the United States of America, what I gave the country, and that's exactly why I did this, I paid for this whole trip myself, was I gave a pathway for negotiations to stop the madness. I provided a vivid pathway to the hard men in Beijing, 13 of them. I said, if you follow this pathway, China will prosper.
Bill O'Reilly
Okay? So again, it has nothing to do with me on a daily basis, but I did contribute, I think, to the overall strategy, that a deal helps both China and the United States and not only in trade, they got to figure out Taiwan, Putin, Iran, all of that. Now, it is much easier for Donald Trump at this point in history to deal with Xi than Putin because Putin is psychotic. I am now 100% convinced you don't allow 1 million Russian casualties, 1 million, to invade a country that does you no good whatsoever, Ukraine, and then you continue to, despite the fact that Trump offered Putin a good deal to stop fighting. Putin's psychotic now. So if I were sent to Moscow, number one, I wouldn't go because they put me in prison. All right? And number two, there's nothing I Could say to the people in Moscow, nothing that are going to change Putin. Trump made a mistake on Putin. He didn't know the seriousness of Putin's mental condition. Putin's crazy, okay? Now he can function. But again, you don't allow a million Russians to give up their lives or be severely wounded in Ukraine. And you don't even count the Ukrainian civilians and all of that food and care at all. No. That's why he's on my upcoming book, Confronting Evil. He's on a cover. Okay? So I couldn't do anything there. But in China, it's different, because the Chinese know they need America. Putin doesn't think he needs anybody. Chinese know they need America economically. And so therefore, I think that this has a chance to tamp everything down. I hope it does. I pray it does. Okay, all right, so Trump, as he does, often took a terrible situation in Colorado, where a Muslim here illegally tried to kill people, and then he used that to ban a number of countries from sending any of their citizens to the usa. Okay, here are the countries. Afghanistan, obviously, that's out of control. Chad is an African country, North African country, no government. Really. Equatorial guinea, same thing. Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Myanmar, Republic of Congo, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen. They have one thing in common. They have no functioning government in any of those countries. Not. So that means that you can be a terrorist, a Muslim terrorist, or any terrorist, okay? And then you can get on a plane with a passport that says Somalia and come here if you get your visa or whatever you get. And nobody knows who you are because those countries aren't checking you out, because there's no functioning government there. That's why Trump did it. I do the same thing. I would do the same thing. And Venezuela is on that list. And, I mean, it's a. There's some other things to do with Venezuela, but Venezuela, you know, it's a corrupt, criminally run government. Why do we want those people here? For what? Yet you hear the left go, yeah, hey, keep quiet, okay? This is protection. Okay? Out of control courts. Big story. All right? This is the executive order signed by Trump. And then some judge someplace, Paducah, Kentucky, says, oh, no, he can't do it, signs this. The ACLU shops the country for liberal judges, then brings a suit in those jurisdictions. Of course, those jurisdictions aren't valid. And that's what will happen. Supreme Court will throw it all out. But in the meantime, the aclu, which is behind all of this, is making it very hard for President Trump to govern by executive order. So there are hearings in Congress hearings in the Senate. Okay? This is a subcommittee on federal courts. And this guy, John Kennedy, you know him, he's on Fox News every hour on the hour. Okay? He's grilling a woman named Kate Shaw. She teaches at the University of Pennsylvania. She's an attorney, works for ABC News, part of the Obama administration. She's a radical leftist. Okay? And here's how the Q and A went down.
Senator
Go on. April 22, 2024, you said there are some members of the Supreme Court that are evil. Which justices were you talking about?
Medical Professional
I'll take it. Your word, Senator. I don't recall using that word, but.
Senator
All right, here's what you said. You were talking about the majority opinion in Muldro v. City of St. Louis. You said, quote, Justice Kagan. I mean, will she be able to control the opinions? Future distortion by her evil colleagues. Probably not. End quote. Who are you talking about, sir?
Medical Professional
I'm very skeptical. There's a. If it's transcription, it was probably a transcription error. I do not think I said.
Senator
No, you said it once you own up to it. Which you call some members of the Supreme Court evil. Now, which ones do you think are evil?
Medical Professional
I would have to refresh my recollection.
Bill O'Reilly
So I. Come on now, is this a big deal? No. She's a radical leftist. Of course. She thinks the Supreme Court justices that voted that Roe v. Wade be kicked back to the states are evil. That's what these radical leftists do. She just admitted. And the fact that she's teaching at an Ivy League school, University of Penn. Does that surprise you? Come on. But it's a worthy exercise to get this in front of the American people. Okay. There's an aggregate of polling on Real Clear Politics. There's a website now. They didn't poll Biden. I don't know why. About his. What this was was a comparison of the first five months in office. So they did Bush the younger, Obama and Trump, but not Biden. Why not? I don't know. And here's the numbers. So this is job approval. Bush had 46 after five months, Obama 47, Trump 48. That's pretty interesting and encouraging for President Trump because he's far and away the most controversial of the three. Not even close. I mean, Trump is just blowing up the whole federal apparatus and foreign affairs and the economy all at once, which, I don't know, the wisest thing, to do it all at once. Okay. But to have 48% of the American people. This is the aggregate of all the polls say, okay, it's good for him. Thought you'd like to know that because you'll never see it anywhere else. National Sheriff's association this is really a weird story and I'm setting it up because I don't know what the deuce is going on. So ice, as you know, is conducting raids all over the country and to find and deport people here illegally. The National Sheriff's association is based in Alexandria, Virginia. I think it's 3,000 sheriffs are involved with it. Its leader is Kiernan Donahue, a sheriff from Canyon County, Idaho. Now, after the Massachusetts raids, ICE posted a whole bunch of stuff and the Sheriff's Association Object to what?

To ICE posting what they're doing? That's my question. Simple man, simple question. So we asked very politely, can you provide someone to tell me why the Sheriff's mad at ICE? Do they not want to cooperate with ICE? What's going on? This is big. 3,000 sheriffs. It's big. Now, I have a very good relationship with law enforcement from Juneau, from Fairbanks, Alaska to Key west, everybody knows I have their backs. So we didn't think it was going to be a tough booking. And there's a guy named Patrick Royal. He's a PIO Public Information Officer of the Sheriff's Association. He calls. Hey, Patrick, come on. Explain this. No, no. What? What's going on? I don't know. And they're afraid to come on for some reason. I'll get to the bottom of it. You know, I'm on it now. It's so weird. ICE stats. So thanks for to President Biden. The FBI has spent more than a million manpower hours investigating the problem stemming from the open border. Okay? One million man power hours. And that's all on Biden because he opened it up. 15 million in problems all over the place. Okay, interesting stat. Now, on Tuesday of this week alone, okay, 2,200 illegal migrants were taken into custody. A lot for one day. Okay. And that's a 37% jump from the week prior. So they're stepping up. Ice is stepping up its raid, and it's not incarceration, but they keep them contained. They're not out on the street anymore. So the White House is, please, Trump wants this. That's why it's happening. So far since Trump has been president, there have been about 67,000 undocuments is taken in and about 65,000 deported. So most of them who are rounded up, go. Those are the stats. There are exceptions or there should be and there are. Okay, so Homeland Security, with which controls ice, they've got to make exceptions here. And one of them is Little Sophia Vargas, 4 year old Mexican girl who's a very serious illness and she's being treated in Southern California in a hospital there. So her mother, who took her across the border illegally in 2023, has been detained by ICE, but ICE is now giving the family a humanitarian waiver, which is the right thing to do. All right, we have to save this girl's life now. I would if I were President Trump, pardon him, I'd say you could stay on a humanitarian basis. Nothing wrong with that. Okay. Sophia and her mom do not pose any danger to us. And it's a humanitarian thing. I was happy to see this story. Smart Life. So if you live in Texas, and I did for two years, boy, it was hot, this Yankee. Anyway, the Texas Senate Bill 25 is going to require Doritos, M&MS, Fruit Loops, Mountain Dew, Skittles, Captain Crunch cereal and others. But warning labels because of food additives, dyes, bleach, flour, sugar, all of that. And it's good. Texas is ahead on this because if you eat drunk, you're gonna die a painful death. This is Smart Life. Now, this is a Smart Life segment. Let me repeat that. If you eat junk, you're going to die a painful death. That what you want? I'd rather go in my sleep, you know, and I knocked out most of the sugar in my life. Now I'm working on the carbs. Because, you know, you got to get that under control. We Americans eat terrible diets. Terrible. When I was in North Asia last week, fish, it was, you know, no sugar. Nobody's fat except the American tourists. They're fat. Chinese weren't fat, Japanese weren't. Koreans, a little bit more chubbier, a little more softe, because they are more attached to the American culture. So in Texas, Governor Admiral signed this. So General Mills, Pepsi Cola, Mars, Kellogg's, they're all going to have to, if they want to ship their stuff to Texas, put these warning labels on, just like tobacco. Every state should do it. Every state. Because you know, not only are you going to die, but the odds are that you're going to cost your family, friends, and people you don't know, fellow Americans, a lot of money. When you get sick, when you get diabetes, when you. Your thumb falls off from the sugar, you cannot do this. And the fast foods are killing you, too. And what do you see on tv? What do the kids see every day, all day long? Oh, you deserve a break today. And a bell rings and this and that once in a while, okay? But a steady diet of this. So the word has to get out. And, you know, I'm not a big RFK Junior fan, but he's right on this. And it's going to save this country trillions of dollars in health costs if people wise up. Smart life Tipping. So there's a study by Bankrate. Bankrate is, I guess, a social media friend. YouGov did it about tips, and it was about 2500 US adults. So the headline is 41% of Americans say tipping has gotten out of control. This is up from 6% in 2024. Why has it got out of control? Because now when you go to the deli or the bodega or the pizza joint or wherever you go and somebody just puts your food in a bag, they want a tip. So they have the little dopey machine put your credit card and goes, what? Tip for what? I called it in. All you did was write the order down and put it in a bag.

It sound like you were waiting the table and you want a tip. No. Now, it's not about the money. I'm generous tipper. 20% for good service. And sometimes I'll give a little bit more if I, you know, they think that the person really is trying and all that. 20% for good service, 10% for not so good service. Even if you're allowed, I'll give you 10%. Unless you're disrespectful, not just to me, but to anybody in the restaurant. Then you get nothing. And I'll tell you why you get nothing. And I'll tell your boss why you're getting nothing as an app. I haven't done that in a year, maybe more. So 24 good service, 10 for poor service. But, you know, and nothing if you are obnoxious. Okay, so that is the tipping culture. And I don't blame everybody. You know, come on, work hard for our money and people go, hey, give me a tip, give me a tip. And the tax, no tax on tips. You know, Wall Street Journal hates that. I don't understand that those people who are working for tips are not affluent people. Give them a break. I got to. It's not going to bust the budget, you know, and Trump's not going to back away from that. So that's got to be in this big bill. Stay in history. June 5, 2004, Ronald Reagan, 40th president of the United States, dies in Los Angeles. Complications Alzheimer's disease. Now, the reason I'm doing this 21 years ago is that I wrote a book on President Reagan, all right, Killing Reagan. And he was in for eight years. Conservative Americans and moderates love him, Ronald Reagan. And there's a good reason why they love him. And the reason is that Reagan, even though he had an up and down presidency, and he did, okay, Killing Reagan is banned from the Reagan library in Simi Valley. They will not stock the book. The reason is I told the truth, that after he was shot, Ronald Reagan had a hard time for about six months. I mean, mental acuity, very tough up and down. I told the truth. I backed it up with names, no anonymous sources. Reagan library didn't like it. Fine, okay. We sold 2 million copies anyway. Reagan, what he did to catapult himself, and I do believe he is in a say top 15 best presidents, was that he lifted the morale of the citizenry. People felt good in the 1980s to be an American because Reagan was a traditionalist. He believed in God and He believed in service and he believed in the country. And he believed that we were a shining light on the Hill. He believed it wasn't a phony. And Americans who believe the same thing emotionally attach themselves to him. But if you look at his record, the biggest mistake he made was giving amnesty to 3 million people who snuck in here. And he said, look, I'm going to give them amnesty to placate the Democratic Party. That was Tip o' Neill, but we'll seal the border. Won't happen again. But they didn't, and he didn't insist on it. Reagan and the liberals, the left, saw that weakness, okay? Best thing he did was he figured out that the Soviet Union was wobbly and that by developing all these weapons, new technology in the 80s, that the Soviets would have to do the same thing. And it couldn't afford it. And the Soviet economic profile collapsed. And that led to the walls coming down and all that. And that happened during Bush the elder. Didn't happen under Reagan. Took a couple of years, but Reagan saw that. He attacked the Soviet Union economically, very, very shrewd, very, very strong policy. George Schultz, you might remember that name. He was involved with that. Okay, so Reagan, Ronald Reagan, died 21 years ago today. Back with a final thought on dad in a moment. Okay, so the Fourth Commandment, some say the fifth, but in my religion, Catholicism, and in the Torah, I believe the fourth commandment is honor thy father and thy mother. And it's problematic because there are a lot of fathers and mothers who are not good. Let's be honest, okay? They're not. They didn't treat their children well. They don't treat each other well. They're just not good. Do you still have to honor them? The answer is yes. You have to be respectful. You don't have to embrace. You don't have to make excuses. You don't have to pander. Respectful. On their respective days. You give them gifts, you send them a card. Don't overdo it if you don't feel they deserve it. But most parents, my parents were flawed. They were children of the Depression. But I loved them and I respected them to the very end. And I did everything on earth I could do to make their lives easier. And I didn't. I wasn't a scorecard. They did this, they did that. I didn't do that because I honored the Fourth Commandment. I mean, it's pretty clear now, sometimes you can't honor. Sometimes the destructive nature of parents is so bad that you can't. I understand that. And millions of people are facing it. I got it. But if you can form some kind of kindness of detente, try. You'll be a much better person for it. Thank you for watching and listening to the no Spin News News Sunday column. See you again on Monday.
Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis
Episode Summary: The Biden Coverup Scandal, President Trump’s Call with China’s Xi, & Trump's New Travel Ban
Release Date: June 6, 2025
In this episode of Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News and Analysis, host Bill O'Reilly delves into three major political topics: the alleged Biden coverup scandal involving executive orders, President Trump’s recent phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Trump’s new travel ban targeting specific countries. O'Reilly presents his analysis with a focus on uncovering facts and providing a conservative perspective on these pressing issues.
O'Reilly begins by addressing the controversy surrounding President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen to sign executive orders. He raises concerns about the frequency and circumstances under which Biden employed this method, suggesting potential implications about the President’s mental and physical capacity.
Bill O'Reilly [01:12]:
"The House Oversight Committee is investigating whether President Biden actually knew what he was signing when he didn't sign the executive orders, but an autopen did."
O'Reilly explains that while using an autopen is legally permissible when a president is indisposed, the sheer number of executive orders signed this way by Biden is unprecedented and troubling.
Bill O'Reilly [05:00]:
"From January 1st of this year to Inauguration Day on the 21st, there were 14 executive orders signed in the White House, all of them by autopen. Pretty troubling."
Drawing parallels to the Watergate scandal, O'Reilly suggests that the Biden administration might be engaged in a cover-up regarding the President’s health and decision-making capabilities.
Bill O'Reilly [03:00]:
"What I knew, the phone call was going to be made. And it's a very important call. We'll get to it in the second segment. The talking points memo, however, is on the growing Biden scandal, and it is that it is a scandal."
He emphasizes the severity of the situation by comparing it to Watergate, implying that the implications could be just as significant, if not more so.
O'Reilly details the ongoing investigation by the House Oversight Committee, which is examining whether Biden was sufficiently aware of the contents of the executive orders he signed via autopen. He highlights the difficulties in proving such allegations but maintains his stance on the matter.
Bill O'Reilly [07:00]:
"In my opinion, this was a mammoth cover up. And the guy who's in most trouble is the doctor that I just mentioned, o' Connor. He's a colonel. Retired colonel in the Army. And he was examining Biden."
O'Reilly refers to a medical professional who allegedly provided conflicting information about Biden’s health, further fueling the scandal.
O'Reilly shifts focus to President Donald Trump’s recent phone call with China’s President Xi Jinping, emphasizing its importance and positive outcomes related to trade negotiations.
Bill O'Reilly [12:35]:
"So let's get to the phone call. We'll let the president describe it. 'I just included a very good phone call with President Xi of China discussing some of the intricacies of our recently made and agreed to trade deal. Call lasted approximately one and a half hours and resulted in very positive conclusion for both countries.'"
O'Reilly credits Trump for his role in facilitating the negotiations, portraying him as a key figure in establishing a pathway for improved US-China relations.
Bill O'Reilly [14:35]:
"He was kind of a linchpin for what's coming up next. Are you willing to accept that credit? Well, I appreciate you standing in front of my modesty, which doesn't exist. I wasn't surprised, let's put it that way, that the phone call has been arranged."
O'Reilly underscores the strategic importance of the deal, suggesting it could have broader implications for international relations beyond just trade.
O'Reilly discusses Trump’s executive order imposing a travel ban on several countries, citing national security concerns due to the lack of functioning governments in these nations.
Bill O'Reilly [18:35]:
"Trump did it. I do the same thing. I would do the same thing... Afghanistan, obviously, that's out of control. Chad is an African country, North African country, no government. Really. Equatorial Guinea, same thing. Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Myanmar, Republic of Congo, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen."
He explains the legal battles that ensue as organizations like the ACLU challenge the executive order, leading to judicial injunctions and ongoing disputes.
Bill O'Reilly [21:15]:
"The ACLU shops the country for liberal judges, then brings a suit in those jurisdictions. Of course, those jurisdictions aren't valid. And that's what will happen. Supreme Court will throw it all out."
O'Reilly portrays the ACLU’s actions as obstructive and politically motivated, undermining the effectiveness of Trump’s policies.
Highlighting the rationale behind the ban, O'Reilly supports the measure as a necessary step to prevent potential threats from regions with unstable governments.
Bill O'Reilly [23:00]:
"If you live in Texas... Governor Admiral signed this. So General Mills, Pepsi Cola, Mars, Kellogg's, they're all going to have to, if they want to ship their stuff to Texas, put these warning labels on, just like tobacco."
He argues that the travel ban is a protective measure, ensuring national security and preventing illegal immigration from high-risk countries.
O'Reilly addresses the sudden opposition from the National Sheriff's Association regarding ICE’s increased raids and deportations, questioning their motives and seeking clarification.
Bill O'Reilly [22:52]:
"They are afraid to come on for some reason. I'll get to the bottom of it. You know, I'm on it now. It's so weird."
He highlights the discrepancy between the administration’s policies and the response from law enforcement bodies, suggesting underlying tensions or disagreements.
Providing statistics on ICE’s activities, O'Reilly emphasizes the aggressive stance taken by ICE under Biden’s administration, which he attributes to President Biden’s open-border policies.
Bill O'Reilly [24:00]:
"ICE stats. So thanks to President Biden. The FBI has spent more than a million manpower hours investigating the problem stemming from the open border. Okay? One million manpower hours. And that's all on Biden because he opened it up."
He underscores the impact of these policies on national security and public resources, framing Biden as responsible for the current immigration challenges.
O'Reilly wraps up the episode with reflections on historical political events and personal anecdotes, tying them back to the current political climate. He underscores the importance of honoring commitments and respecting authority, drawing from his analysis of past presidencies to contextualize current events.
Bill O'Reilly [30:00]:
"Reagan, Ronald Reagan, died 21 years ago today. He lifted the morale of the citizenry. People felt good in the 1980s to be an American because Reagan was a traditionalist."
He concludes by reiterating his commitment to uncovering and reporting the truth, emphasizing the need for accountability and transparency in leadership.
[01:12] "The House Oversight Committee is investigating whether President Biden actually knew what he was signing when he didn't sign the executive orders, but an autopen did."
[05:00] "From January 1st of this year to Inauguration Day on the 21st, there were 14 executive orders signed in the White House, all of them by autopen. Pretty troubling."
[07:00] "If Colonel o' Connor gave a PSA test that showed Biden had cancer and kept it from the public, that is a crime."
[12:35] "The conversation was focused almost entirely on trade. Nothing was discussed concerning Russia, Ukraine or Iran."
[14:35] "He paid for this whole trip himself, was I gave a pathway for negotiations to stop the madness."
[18:35] "Afghanistan, obviously, that's out of control. Chad is an African country, North African country, no government. Really."
