Thanks, Bill. Here's what's happening this week in America. A very poor job, first lady address, no gun confiscation yet and 25,000 miles per hour at 5,000 degrees. It's all coming up and Bill's gonna be here with your message of the day. First, the president said Iran is doing a very poor job, dishonorable, some would say, of allowing oil to go through the Strait of Hormuz. This is not the agreement we have. When asked about Iran charging a toll, the president said they better not be and if they are, they better stop now as they've been collecting fees. Britain, Japan, couple other European countries, as well as the Persian Gulf states of Saudi Arabia, uae, Oman, which shares control of the strait with Iran, have all spoken out against Iran charging atoll. Under international maritime rules, coastal nations have have sovereignty over waters extending 12 nautical miles, which is about 14 miles from their shores, where they may board or inspect vessels. And the Strait of Horo lies within waters claimed by both Iran and Oman. And the International Maritime Organization said that imposing a toll on the strait was at a dangerous precedent and said that the law of the sea guarantees transit passage through international straits and does not permit coastal states to charge tolls like this. In a rare solo address, the first lady made a surprise statement denying unspecified allegations about her and Jeffrey Epstein. She said the lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today. The individuals lying about me are devoid of ethical standards, humility and respect. She said fake images and statements about Epstein and me have been circulating on social media for years now. Be cautious about what you believe. These images and stories are completely false. I was never involved in any capacity. I was not a participant, was never on Epstein's plane and never visited his private island. The Virginia State Police posted on Twitter that there are no plans to go door to door and confiscate guns. This is in light of SB749, which targets so called assault weapons. It passed and it's about to be signed. It has a grandfather clause in it allowing current gun owners of certain guns to keep them. But it caused enough concern that the Virginia State Police superintendent wrote that the police works every day to enhance safety and protect civil liberties. Those liberties were not granted by government and will not be impeded by government. Not now, not ever. Tonight's the night pray for our astronauts. The capsule will travel 25,000 miles per hour and 5,000 degrees. NASA has admitted that the heat shield has shortcomings. But the head of NASA said there is no plan B. The heat shield has to work. Tonight, 8:07 Eastern. Pray for our astronauts. YouTube.com politicsbyfaith Bill O'Reilly has your message of the day. Next

Time now for the O'Reilly update. Message of the day. As we predicted, President Trump is extending negotiations with Iran for two weeks on April 6th. I said, quote, the president reiterated at the end of Tuesday, tomorrow, if he doesn't have some kind of deal with Iran that involves nukes, that he'll bomb their electrical grid, take them out. They won't have any communications. I believe that might be extended. The Tuesday deadline might be extended. So I nailed it. Why? Because I spoke with President Trump. I know what's going on in there. I'm not bragging. That's my job as a reporter. As part of the deal that was made, Iran will now be involved with Hormuz, but will not control it. Negotiations are supposed to begin in Pakistan on Saturday. Now, the reason all of this is happening is that Donald Trump did not want to kill civilians in Iran. I had a long discussion with him about that. He wanted a deal. The Iranians are almost impossible to deal with and this whole thing could fall apart. There's no doubt about it. If it does, Mr. Trump will go back to his threat to annihilate that country. So that's where we are. Back in a moment. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me, Billo Reilly.com, billo Reilly.com, name in town if you wish to opine, get to the mail. We got David Langston, Paducah, Kentucky. Bill, help me understand something. President Trump says we've destroyed Iran's Air Force and Navy. Why do they still control the Straits of Hormuz? Well, I dealt with that today, David. And drones are drones. Okay? You can't get them all, but they are most of them. Jordan, Butes, St. Albert. I'm sorry, St. Albert, Canada. It's in Alberta. All right. Which is a providence in the West. Jordan asks. You shouldn't be surprised. Lack cooperation with the Iranian war, the Bushes, Obama and Clinton were able to build coalitions. President Trump has not done this. Maybe because of his hubris. Perhaps belittling allies was not prudent. There's something to that. There's something to that. It's a lot easier for if you kiss somebody's butt to make a deal. To put it one way, Jerry Axton, Buckeye Arizona, Considering the partnership and support of other countries today, should the USA only protect itself? Can't do it. Can't live in a world this complicated with all the trade and everything by being an isolationist. JASON Vose, Katori, Japan Mr. L, there are two things I'd like to say. Number one, Japan cannot afford to help America in Iran. If Japan lent one or two destroyers, it would be leaving itself open at possible Chinese attack, for which the United States protects Japan by our base in Okinawa. So don't give me that chase. Number one, they got plenty of money over there. Number two, they can help us out. Number three, they should in a moment. Something you might not know now, the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know. For nearly a century, doctors have prescribed drugs to help people manage their weight. Historically, the prescriptions were often dangerous, amphetamines, hormones, even hard narcotics. Well, today, a new weight loss medication is becoming as common as insulin. Here's the story behind the GLP revolution. Originally intended to treat diabetes, the drug is short for glucagon, like peptide. Once injected into the body, it blocks receptors in the brain related to hunger. It also reduces blood sugar levels. Patients often see a 15 to 20% reduction in their weight. Today, more than 30 million Americans take GLP to help shed some pounds. Result, the obesity rate in the USA is on the decline for the first time in 50 years. But it is not all good news. There are significant long term studies about the drug's effect on the human body. Some patients complain of severe side vomiting, cramps, nausea, abdominal pain, even internal bleeding. Also, according to the National Institutes of Health, most users regain their weight within one year of stopping the medication. Despite that, numerous celebrities are promoting the injections. Oprah, Tracy Morgan, Elon Musk, Sharon Osborne, Rosie o', Donnell, Charles Barkley, on and on. And here's something else you might not know. The GLP business now one of the most lucrative in America. Just six years ago, the market was estimated at $1 billion in 2026. This year, it is a $60 billion industry and that figure is likely to reach 150 billion over the next decade. But some countries are cracking down. Belgium, UK India, all are limiting the drug because of the side effects. Back in a moment. Thank you for listening to the O'Reilly update. I am Bill O'Reilly.
